WEBVTT - Taking My Talents Elsewhere

0:00:01.520 --> 0:00:04.439
<v Speaker 1>Well, the city council might only give you sixty seconds

0:00:04.440 --> 0:00:05.560
<v Speaker 1>to where your grievance is.

0:00:05.680 --> 0:00:08.039

<v Speaker 1>KABC News Blitz with Randy Wang starts no, no, No.

0:00:43.040 --> 0:00:45.960
<v Speaker 2>everything you need to know that's going on in Southern California,

0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:49.120
<v Speaker 2>the Bay Area, Sacramento, San Diego, and the Central Valley.

0:00:49.400 --> 0:00:51.479
<v Speaker 2>I compile a list every single day of all the

0:00:51.520 --> 0:00:53.840
<v Speaker 2>news stories that I found that you may find interesting

0:00:53.880 --> 0:00:57.840
<v Speaker 2>that you may have missed at Randywangradio dot substack dot com.

0:00:58.240 --> 0:01:02.480
<v Speaker 2>That's Randy Wang Radio substack dot com. The phone number

0:01:02.560 --> 0:01:04.759
<v Speaker 2>to join us is eight hundred two two two five

0:01:04.880 --> 0:01:08.040
<v Speaker 2>two two two one eight hundred two two two five

0:01:08.120 --> 0:01:13.880
<v Speaker 2>two two two, And I have a very important conversation

0:01:14.000 --> 0:01:16.600
<v Speaker 2>that I need to have with everybody listening right now.

0:01:18.280 --> 0:01:23.160
<v Speaker 2>Yesterday we played some of the sound of the debate

0:01:23.680 --> 0:01:28.920
<v Speaker 2>between Nithia Rahman and Karen Bass, and I had one

0:01:29.640 --> 0:01:34.120
<v Speaker 2>very clear takeaway. This city is not getting any better

0:01:34.600 --> 0:01:38.800
<v Speaker 2>anytime soon, no matter which one of these two morons

0:01:38.920 --> 0:01:42.640
<v Speaker 2>gets in charge. So that's when I came to the

0:01:42.640 --> 0:01:48.880
<v Speaker 2>realization that enough is enough. If I cannot vote for

0:01:49.400 --> 0:01:52.840
<v Speaker 2>somebody that's going to fix the problems here, I've got

0:01:52.880 --> 0:01:56.240
<v Speaker 2>to vote with my feet and I've got to go

0:01:56.320 --> 0:01:59.400
<v Speaker 2>somewhere else. Now. I'm sure you're all aware that, like

0:01:59.480 --> 0:02:01.600
<v Speaker 2>my five my her ten year plan is to like

0:02:01.680 --> 0:02:04.720
<v Speaker 2>live part time in Santa Fe, New Mexico. But I'm

0:02:04.720 --> 0:02:09.000
<v Speaker 2>not even talking about that right now. I obviously still

0:02:09.040 --> 0:02:12.600
<v Speaker 2>need to work in the Southern California area. My job

0:02:12.639 --> 0:02:15.400
<v Speaker 2>is in the Southern California area. We do a lot

0:02:15.400 --> 0:02:20.440
<v Speaker 2>of events out here, what have you. But I am

0:02:20.560 --> 0:02:26.000
<v Speaker 2>so ready to be out of the city of Los Angeles.

0:02:26.160 --> 0:02:32.280
<v Speaker 2>I in the next year or so want to move. Realistically,

0:02:32.360 --> 0:02:35.120
<v Speaker 2>with interest rates, we would probably rent out this house

0:02:35.200 --> 0:02:37.800
<v Speaker 2>and then go rent or buy somewhere else if we

0:02:37.800 --> 0:02:41.600
<v Speaker 2>could figure that out. But I want to be somewhere else.

0:02:42.880 --> 0:02:47.840
<v Speaker 2>I am forty one years old, and I am at

0:02:47.840 --> 0:02:52.240
<v Speaker 2>a point where I should really, really really like where

0:02:52.320 --> 0:02:54.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm living. I sure work my ass off. I should

0:02:55.000 --> 0:02:56.919
<v Speaker 2>be able to enjoy the place that I am and

0:02:57.000 --> 0:03:01.919
<v Speaker 2>every single time that I traveled to all the things

0:03:01.960 --> 0:03:06.400
<v Speaker 2>that I like that I don't have. So let's take

0:03:06.560 --> 0:03:10.639
<v Speaker 2>all of the politics out of this right now, because

0:03:11.040 --> 0:03:14.320
<v Speaker 2>life is so much more about who is running your city.

0:03:14.360 --> 0:03:17.080
<v Speaker 2>That's definitely an important part of it, but there are

0:03:17.120 --> 0:03:20.000
<v Speaker 2>so many other aspects, you know, when it comes to

0:03:20.120 --> 0:03:24.760
<v Speaker 2>the actual quality of life day in day out, what

0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:27.880
<v Speaker 2>are the things that I am looking for. One thing

0:03:27.960 --> 0:03:32.000
<v Speaker 2>that I have learned over the last many years is

0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:38.600
<v Speaker 2>that I really love walking. I really love walking, and

0:03:38.760 --> 0:03:41.760
<v Speaker 2>while I can walk around my neighborhood a million times,

0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:47.320
<v Speaker 2>I prefer walking where there's stuff to do, or walking

0:03:47.400 --> 0:03:50.440
<v Speaker 2>and you can see cool stuff. Whether that's walking in

0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:55.040
<v Speaker 2>a beautiful manicured trail nothing too wilderness e or walking

0:03:55.120 --> 0:04:01.040
<v Speaker 2>around a safe, fun downtown in a city. I love

0:04:01.160 --> 0:04:03.800
<v Speaker 2>walking around. I love going to places. I love when

0:04:03.800 --> 0:04:05.880
<v Speaker 2>my wife and I can go walk somewhere to a

0:04:05.920 --> 0:04:08.839
<v Speaker 2>patio and go have a nice meal. That's another thing.

0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:12.520
<v Speaker 2>Great restaurants very important to me. And you know, Los

0:04:12.560 --> 0:04:15.720
<v Speaker 2>Angeles does have a lot of great restaurants, but they're

0:04:15.920 --> 0:04:20.760
<v Speaker 2>so spread out that it is such an adventure to

0:04:20.880 --> 0:04:25.880
<v Speaker 2>get to any of them. Outside of all the politics

0:04:25.880 --> 0:04:28.559
<v Speaker 2>problems of the city of Los Angeles, my biggest gripe

0:04:28.600 --> 0:04:32.320
<v Speaker 2>with LA is it's too big and it's too spread out,

0:04:32.600 --> 0:04:34.800
<v Speaker 2>and I live in the suburbs and it's a pain

0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:39.320
<v Speaker 2>in the butt to go anywhere. But it doesn't have

0:04:39.480 --> 0:04:43.039
<v Speaker 2>to be that way for me. The only reason I'm

0:04:43.080 --> 0:04:46.360
<v Speaker 2>still here is because I choose to be. I can

0:04:46.440 --> 0:04:51.480
<v Speaker 2>choose to move anywhere else within a reasonable distance of

0:04:51.520 --> 0:04:55.640
<v Speaker 2>Culver City, because my commute already sucks and it would

0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:58.599
<v Speaker 2>have to be a really nice place to have to

0:04:58.640 --> 0:05:03.560
<v Speaker 2>make that commute even or you know, the universe could

0:05:03.600 --> 0:05:07.359
<v Speaker 2>align my way and we could start, you know, having

0:05:07.360 --> 0:05:10.520
<v Speaker 2>me work full time remote. It'll happen someday. Make sure

0:05:10.560 --> 0:05:14.800
<v Speaker 2>to subscribe to the YouTube channel. It's our lifeline. So

0:05:14.960 --> 0:05:17.680
<v Speaker 2>what am I looking for in a place that I

0:05:17.800 --> 0:05:23.080
<v Speaker 2>want to live. I'm looking for walkability. I think I'm

0:05:23.080 --> 0:05:26.560
<v Speaker 2>also looking for at this point, if I'm gonna have

0:05:26.600 --> 0:05:29.719
<v Speaker 2>to pay through the nose to live in southern California.

0:05:29.839 --> 0:05:32.080
<v Speaker 2>It's got to be somewhere that doesn't have the heat

0:05:32.120 --> 0:05:36.080
<v Speaker 2>of the San Fernando Valley. I'm over it. So even

0:05:36.080 --> 0:05:39.039
<v Speaker 2>though I love the walkability and I loved living in

0:05:39.080 --> 0:05:41.760
<v Speaker 2>the city of Burbank, I don't know if I can

0:05:41.800 --> 0:05:46.640
<v Speaker 2>do Burbank again. Like, these summers are getting really unbearable.

0:05:46.680 --> 0:05:49.320
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, most of the year it's fine and it's pleasant,

0:05:49.400 --> 0:05:52.040
<v Speaker 2>but you know, I got out of my car today

0:05:52.160 --> 0:05:54.800
<v Speaker 2>at four o'clock as I park in my driveway and

0:05:54.839 --> 0:05:58.760
<v Speaker 2>it's just like, ugh, this is awful, you know. And

0:05:58.800 --> 0:06:01.159
<v Speaker 2>I drive into Call, which is on the other side

0:06:01.160 --> 0:06:04.239
<v Speaker 2>of the hill, and it's like fifteen sixteen degrees cooler.

0:06:05.440 --> 0:06:10.200
<v Speaker 2>Culver's a possibility, you know, Culver I wouldn't hate, although

0:06:11.160 --> 0:06:14.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean it'd be really really a hard sell. Oh,

0:06:14.920 --> 0:06:17.320
<v Speaker 2>let's move to the place that's right next to my work.

0:06:17.480 --> 0:06:20.600
<v Speaker 2>But Culver has a lot of fun stuff going for it.

0:06:21.279 --> 0:06:24.000
<v Speaker 2>You know, the walkable outdoor mall so that there's not

0:06:24.080 --> 0:06:27.440
<v Speaker 2>that many things there, but the platform or the Culver

0:06:27.520 --> 0:06:29.839
<v Speaker 2>City steps, those are kind of cool. There are some

0:06:29.920 --> 0:06:32.960
<v Speaker 2>great restaurants. What I do like about Culver, and I

0:06:33.040 --> 0:06:38.160
<v Speaker 2>explored this a couple of years ago. Many years before

0:06:38.480 --> 0:06:42.560
<v Speaker 2>I took over this time slot and the news Blitz

0:06:42.800 --> 0:06:47.480
<v Speaker 2>was rotating guest hosts. There was a week where an

0:06:47.480 --> 0:06:49.680
<v Speaker 2>old partner of mine, Leahn Tweeden, who I used to

0:06:49.680 --> 0:06:52.000
<v Speaker 2>work with on the morning show, she was asked to

0:06:52.040 --> 0:06:54.160
<v Speaker 2>do a week of guest hosting and she asked me,

0:06:54.279 --> 0:06:56.880
<v Speaker 2>and I was working noon to three at the time,

0:06:56.920 --> 0:06:59.360
<v Speaker 2>if I would do the time slot with her at

0:06:59.440 --> 0:07:03.080
<v Speaker 2>this point, I think this show was six to seven pm,

0:07:03.880 --> 0:07:06.520
<v Speaker 2>and I said yes, because well, I love Leanne, and

0:07:07.000 --> 0:07:09.880
<v Speaker 2>you know I'm a narcissist, and any excuse to get

0:07:09.880 --> 0:07:11.760
<v Speaker 2>paid to talk on the radio. I don't think I

0:07:11.760 --> 0:07:14.040
<v Speaker 2>got paid extra for it, but you know what, I

0:07:14.120 --> 0:07:19.440
<v Speaker 2>was happy to do it. And so for that entire

0:07:19.560 --> 0:07:25.040
<v Speaker 2>week I had to figure out what to do with

0:07:25.200 --> 0:07:30.880
<v Speaker 2>myself between three pm and six pm because only about

0:07:30.920 --> 0:07:33.000
<v Speaker 2>a half hour that was going to be show prep,

0:07:34.800 --> 0:07:38.960
<v Speaker 2>and so I had to figure out what to do. Well,

0:07:39.000 --> 0:07:41.560
<v Speaker 2>I could go walk to the Trader Joe's over there

0:07:41.560 --> 0:07:45.600
<v Speaker 2>on Culver, could do that. What I ended up figuring

0:07:45.640 --> 0:07:49.480
<v Speaker 2>out the first day was that if you don't mind

0:07:49.520 --> 0:07:51.760
<v Speaker 2>a little bit of a detour, because it's not a

0:07:51.760 --> 0:07:55.880
<v Speaker 2>straight shot, you can walk from where the radio station

0:07:56.080 --> 0:07:58.559
<v Speaker 2>is in Culver City. It takes about a half hour

0:07:58.600 --> 0:08:03.360
<v Speaker 2>to get there to the Baldwin Hill's scenic overlook and

0:08:03.440 --> 0:08:09.400
<v Speaker 2>those massive, massive staircase at that hiking trail, and I

0:08:09.520 --> 0:08:12.080
<v Speaker 2>made it there. I didn't really know where I was going,

0:08:12.560 --> 0:08:15.640
<v Speaker 2>but I loved it, and I loved that I could

0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:18.320
<v Speaker 2>walk there from it, and the neighborhood that's right next

0:08:18.320 --> 0:08:21.040
<v Speaker 2>to the radio station is It's pretty nice, you know.

0:08:21.520 --> 0:08:24.040
<v Speaker 2>And Culver City is not the City of Los Angeles.

0:08:24.120 --> 0:08:26.920
<v Speaker 2>It has its issues, like with the bus only lanes

0:08:26.960 --> 0:08:29.400
<v Speaker 2>and the traffic and the red turn arrows, what have you.

0:08:30.040 --> 0:08:33.480
<v Speaker 2>But Culver's pretty nice and being able to walk to

0:08:33.559 --> 0:08:38.640
<v Speaker 2>a trail like that is pretty cool. So that's a possibility.

0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:40.800
<v Speaker 2>I don't think I could really afford some of the

0:08:40.800 --> 0:08:44.680
<v Speaker 2>beach towns, but I'm open to it if there is

0:08:44.720 --> 0:08:46.960
<v Speaker 2>a way to figure that out. You know, walk up

0:08:46.960 --> 0:08:50.240
<v Speaker 2>and down a board walk every single day. Again, great

0:08:50.320 --> 0:08:54.640
<v Speaker 2>restaurants are an important thing, you know. Maybe it's time

0:08:54.640 --> 0:08:57.360
<v Speaker 2>to think about Orange County, where, you know, not only

0:08:57.400 --> 0:08:59.920
<v Speaker 2>are you leaving La City, you're leaving La County where

0:09:00.559 --> 0:09:03.400
<v Speaker 2>things are a little better run.

0:09:03.840 --> 0:09:04.080
<v Speaker 3>You know.

0:09:04.480 --> 0:09:08.199
<v Speaker 2>Could I see myself in Seal Beach someday it's possible.

0:09:08.679 --> 0:09:12.400
<v Speaker 2>I do love Seal Beach, you know, although Long Beach

0:09:12.440 --> 0:09:14.480
<v Speaker 2>I also think Long Beach is pretty fantastic.

0:09:15.400 --> 0:09:15.560
<v Speaker 3>You know.

0:09:15.640 --> 0:09:17.800
<v Speaker 2>Over the weekend to beat the heat, we're gonna go

0:09:17.920 --> 0:09:22.160
<v Speaker 2>hang out in Ventor and ox Start. And it is

0:09:22.200 --> 0:09:25.960
<v Speaker 2>so funny. This is how crazy I am getting in,

0:09:26.200 --> 0:09:31.600
<v Speaker 2>Like I've got to get out. Yesterday, as we're figuring

0:09:31.640 --> 0:09:33.560
<v Speaker 2>out what to do to beat the hundred degree heat,

0:09:33.600 --> 0:09:35.080
<v Speaker 2>my wife says, oh, I found a place that we

0:09:35.080 --> 0:09:37.199
<v Speaker 2>can take the dogs at, you know, the Ventura Harbor

0:09:37.280 --> 0:09:41.800
<v Speaker 2>near Oxnard. And I'm like, oh, well, that sounds fun. Hey,

0:09:41.800 --> 0:09:44.880
<v Speaker 2>what's going on in Oxnard? And I just start looking

0:09:44.920 --> 0:09:46.800
<v Speaker 2>it up and I start like doing a deep dive

0:09:46.880 --> 0:09:49.319
<v Speaker 2>and I start looking into River Park and Oxnart, which

0:09:49.400 --> 0:09:51.960
<v Speaker 2>is this master planned community where you know when you

0:09:51.960 --> 0:09:53.520
<v Speaker 2>go up the one to one freeway and you see

0:09:53.520 --> 0:09:56.319
<v Speaker 2>that massive outdoor mall that's right off the freeway in

0:09:56.400 --> 0:09:59.920
<v Speaker 2>Oxnard with the Whole Foods and all that stuff, the collection,

0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:04.440
<v Speaker 2>and right behind that is this whole neighborhood where every

0:10:04.480 --> 0:10:08.480
<v Speaker 2>single house or condo apartment is walking distance to this

0:10:08.600 --> 0:10:13.880
<v Speaker 2>big outdoor mall. And I started looking at it, like

0:10:14.000 --> 0:10:17.959
<v Speaker 2>for how much house prices are. I started looking at

0:10:18.080 --> 0:10:20.880
<v Speaker 2>you know, what's life like there? I was watching YouTube

0:10:20.920 --> 0:10:24.200
<v Speaker 2>videos of real estate agents of what is this like there?

0:10:24.920 --> 0:10:27.960
<v Speaker 2>How is living there? And there are pros, there are cons,

0:10:28.000 --> 0:10:29.839
<v Speaker 2>But that would be kind of fun.

0:10:30.080 --> 0:10:30.240
<v Speaker 1>You know.

0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:32.480
<v Speaker 2>It's like I do. My wife and I, even though

0:10:32.480 --> 0:10:36.480
<v Speaker 2>we live in the middle of Lake Balboa, we go

0:10:36.559 --> 0:10:38.640
<v Speaker 2>to Woodland Hills a lot and go to the Woodland

0:10:38.679 --> 0:10:40.679
<v Speaker 2>Hills Village. And I was just saying the other day,

0:10:40.760 --> 0:10:43.680
<v Speaker 2>you know, if we live within walking distance to the

0:10:43.679 --> 0:10:48.520
<v Speaker 2>Woodland Hills village, that would be pretty fun. That being said,

0:10:49.720 --> 0:10:53.040
<v Speaker 2>the heat of Woodland Hills is brutal, and Woodland Hills

0:10:53.120 --> 0:10:56.800
<v Speaker 2>is very expensive. That vineyards at porter Rane, that would

0:10:56.800 --> 0:10:59.160
<v Speaker 2>be a fun area to live nearby and walk to

0:10:59.240 --> 0:11:01.559
<v Speaker 2>that every single day. So I do like the idea

0:11:01.600 --> 0:11:04.320
<v Speaker 2>of walking to a boardwalk every day. Walking to some

0:11:04.480 --> 0:11:07.360
<v Speaker 2>kind of outdoor mall definitely has to be an outdoor mall.

0:11:07.400 --> 0:11:13.040
<v Speaker 2>Indoor malls are so nineteen eighties. But this is where

0:11:13.960 --> 0:11:16.800
<v Speaker 2>I need some advice because, you know, even though I've

0:11:16.840 --> 0:11:19.360
<v Speaker 2>lived in Southern California my entire life, there's a lot

0:11:19.400 --> 0:11:21.760
<v Speaker 2>of Southern California I have not seen. I have not

0:11:21.920 --> 0:11:26.240
<v Speaker 2>experienced as now I am declaring myself a free agent,

0:11:26.960 --> 0:11:31.280
<v Speaker 2>starting to explore the possibility that I would like to

0:11:31.440 --> 0:11:36.000
<v Speaker 2>live somewhere else in the region, Somewhere that's a little cleaner,

0:11:36.520 --> 0:11:40.720
<v Speaker 2>somewhere that's a little safer, Somewhere where I can do

0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:45.079
<v Speaker 2>a lot of walking, but also has great restaurants, maybe

0:11:45.080 --> 0:11:50.839
<v Speaker 2>some good bars, maybe some hiking or trails. I'd love

0:11:50.880 --> 0:11:53.080
<v Speaker 2>to know if there's a you know, tell me where

0:11:53.400 --> 0:11:55.960
<v Speaker 2>if you want to sell me on, like the part

0:11:56.000 --> 0:12:01.120
<v Speaker 2>of town where you live in, whether you're in Ventura County,

0:12:01.160 --> 0:12:03.800
<v Speaker 2>whether you're in Orange County, or the parts of La

0:12:03.920 --> 0:12:08.920
<v Speaker 2>County that are nice, the South Bay, Pasadena, Burbank, Glendale,

0:12:08.960 --> 0:12:12.199
<v Speaker 2>what have you. If you don't live in the city

0:12:12.200 --> 0:12:15.720
<v Speaker 2>of Los Angeles, but you live in southern California and

0:12:15.760 --> 0:12:18.240
<v Speaker 2>you want to tell me why your part of town

0:12:18.360 --> 0:12:21.959

<v Speaker 2>tell me about it and tell me why I should

0:12:35.559 --> 0:12:38.320

<v Speaker 2>two two two one eight hundred two two two five

0:14:54.920 --> 0:15:01.240
<v Speaker 2>two two two. Let's start with Linda in Torrents. Linda, Hello, Randy.

0:15:00.920 --> 0:15:03.960
<v Speaker 4>Come to the South Bay. I work in Culver city.

0:15:04.080 --> 0:15:07.760
<v Speaker 4>I have lived in El Segundo, Torrance, little great pocket

0:15:07.760 --> 0:15:11.120
<v Speaker 4>a Hawthorne called Holly Glenn, and I've lived in Redondo Beach.

0:15:11.160 --> 0:15:15.040
<v Speaker 4>You're close to Manhattan, Hermosa, the bars, the food, You're

0:15:15.080 --> 0:15:17.960
<v Speaker 4>close to pev for the hikes up in PV along

0:15:18.000 --> 0:15:21.600
<v Speaker 4>the coast which are fabulous, and even the little cities

0:15:21.640 --> 0:15:25.720
<v Speaker 4>around here. Torrance has the Madrona Marsh to walk around.

0:15:26.640 --> 0:15:31.400
<v Speaker 4>The beaches have the strand there's plenty of walking, plenty

0:15:31.440 --> 0:15:33.840
<v Speaker 4>of great little cities like El Segundo if you live

0:15:33.880 --> 0:15:36.640
<v Speaker 4>there to walk to the downtown. And Torrance has a

0:15:36.640 --> 0:15:40.400
<v Speaker 4>great old town. But any of the beach cities are great.

0:15:40.440 --> 0:15:43.320
<v Speaker 4>But even you know, the price tags high and the

0:15:43.360 --> 0:15:48.359
<v Speaker 4>ones that end in beach. But Redondo is good, Torrents, Elsagundo,

0:15:48.520 --> 0:15:49.560
<v Speaker 4>great little niches.

0:15:51.080 --> 0:15:53.800
<v Speaker 2>I love that suggestion. I have spent some time in

0:15:53.840 --> 0:15:56.800
<v Speaker 2>the South Bay, not nearly enough, but it is beautiful there.

0:15:56.880 --> 0:15:59.200
<v Speaker 2>I also just for the way my life is going

0:15:59.240 --> 0:16:01.200
<v Speaker 2>to be over the next years. Being that close to

0:16:01.360 --> 0:16:04.880
<v Speaker 2>lax is probably a smart thing for me. But boy,

0:16:05.200 --> 0:16:08.160
<v Speaker 2>you sure sell it great. You've got lots of great,

0:16:08.160 --> 0:16:12.440
<v Speaker 2>beautiful splendor in every single direction, and Torrance has you know,

0:16:12.520 --> 0:16:15.760
<v Speaker 2>safe neighborhoods, good restaurants. That that is a great idea.

0:16:15.840 --> 0:16:17.920
<v Speaker 2>Torrance is a place I definitely have to look into.

0:16:19.200 --> 0:16:23.760
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, anywhere that is west of the One hand Freeway

0:16:23.920 --> 0:16:27.600
<v Speaker 4>is a good ten degrees cooler than anywhere else. And

0:16:27.680 --> 0:16:29.720
<v Speaker 4>if you need a carpool body the cover city I

0:16:29.760 --> 0:16:30.240
<v Speaker 4>got you.

0:16:31.080 --> 0:16:33.840
<v Speaker 2>Well, there we go. Thanks so much for the call, Linda,

0:16:34.000 --> 0:16:37.320
<v Speaker 2>appreciate it. Eight hundred two two two five two two

0:16:37.440 --> 0:16:40.280
<v Speaker 2>two is the telephone number. I want to move out

0:16:40.360 --> 0:16:43.360
<v Speaker 2>of La so bad, so tell me where I should go.

0:16:43.800 --> 0:16:45.920
<v Speaker 2>Let's go to Marion in seem Valley.

0:16:46.000 --> 0:16:51.400
<v Speaker 5>Marion, Hello, Hi, I think your idea of moving to

0:16:51.640 --> 0:16:55.760
<v Speaker 5>River Walk area would be great. The weather's better. I

0:16:55.960 --> 0:16:59.360
<v Speaker 5>like SeeMe Valley. I've been here for forty nine years,

0:16:59.600 --> 0:17:03.640
<v Speaker 5>but that area it'd be cooler. I mean today, right now,

0:17:03.800 --> 0:17:07.640
<v Speaker 5>it's like ninety four degrees out here. My brother lives

0:17:07.680 --> 0:17:10.440
<v Speaker 5>in Torrance. He really likes it. But make sure if

0:17:10.440 --> 0:17:13.280
<v Speaker 5>you move to the South Bay, you move to a

0:17:13.320 --> 0:17:16.000
<v Speaker 5>city that has it. It's its own city, not part

0:17:16.040 --> 0:17:17.119
<v Speaker 5>of LA City.

0:17:18.280 --> 0:17:21.639
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, that is definitely the most important thing is

0:17:21.680 --> 0:17:24.199
<v Speaker 2>I can no longer be giving my tax dollars to

0:17:24.280 --> 0:17:27.359
<v Speaker 2>the city of Los Angeles. They don't deserve it somewhere

0:17:27.359 --> 0:17:29.199
<v Speaker 2>else does. See Me is great And you know what

0:17:29.200 --> 0:17:31.480
<v Speaker 2>I love about See Me is there's also tons and

0:17:31.560 --> 0:17:33.920
<v Speaker 2>tons and tons of horse property out there. My wife

0:17:33.960 --> 0:17:37.520
<v Speaker 2>is a horseback rider. But seem has great people. It's

0:17:37.600 --> 0:17:41.439
<v Speaker 2>beautiful out there, and you know you're close to you

0:17:41.480 --> 0:17:45.440
<v Speaker 2>know the other parts of Ventura County, Thousand Oaks, Oxnard, Camerio.

0:17:45.600 --> 0:17:47.359
<v Speaker 2>It's a really good corridor out there.

0:17:49.080 --> 0:17:49.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:17:49.359 --> 0:17:51.440
<v Speaker 5>I agree. Like I said, I've been here for forty

0:17:51.560 --> 0:17:54.959
<v Speaker 5>nine years and I moved from West LA, and I

0:17:55.200 --> 0:17:58.280
<v Speaker 5>really I wasn't happy at first because it was small town.

0:17:58.359 --> 0:18:01.080
<v Speaker 5>But now it's it's We've got a lot of shopping

0:18:01.119 --> 0:18:03.080
<v Speaker 5>and everything now, so it's cool.

0:18:04.040 --> 0:18:06.359
<v Speaker 2>Well, i'd love to hear that. Thanks for the pitch

0:18:06.400 --> 0:18:09.040

<v Speaker 2>debate between Nithia Rahman and Karen Bass. This city's not

0:20:05.240 --> 0:20:08.240
<v Speaker 2>getting any better anytime soon. So the only thing that

0:20:08.280 --> 0:20:10.960
<v Speaker 2>I can do, since I can't vote for anybody with

0:20:11.040 --> 0:20:14.280
<v Speaker 2>common sense, is to vote with my feet and get

0:20:14.359 --> 0:20:16.879
<v Speaker 2>out of the city of Los Angeles. I am declaring

0:20:16.960 --> 0:20:20.879
<v Speaker 2>myself a free agent, Lebronda style, and I want to

0:20:20.920 --> 0:20:23.080
<v Speaker 2>know where you think I should take my talents to.

0:20:23.680 --> 0:20:28.280
<v Speaker 2>What city should Randy Wang move to in southern California.

0:20:28.760 --> 0:20:33.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm looking for good weather, walkability, maybe some a nice

0:20:33.720 --> 0:20:36.679
<v Speaker 2>little shopping center, or some good restaurants, what have you.

0:20:37.440 --> 0:20:42.080
<v Speaker 2>I am open to ideas, as I really am thinking

0:20:42.080 --> 0:20:45.480
<v Speaker 2>about in the next year moving out of the city

0:20:45.520 --> 0:20:48.280
<v Speaker 2>of Los Angeles. Give me a call, tell me what

0:20:48.359 --> 0:20:51.320
<v Speaker 2>you think. Eight hundred two two two five two two

0:20:51.400 --> 0:20:55.520
<v Speaker 2>two one. Eight hundred two two two five two two two.

0:20:55.560 --> 0:20:57.800
<v Speaker 2>You got a part of southern California that you think

0:20:57.880 --> 0:21:00.240
<v Speaker 2>is a hidden gem that I should consider me.

0:21:00.320 --> 0:21:00.359
<v Speaker 7>No.

0:21:00.560 --> 0:21:03.960
<v Speaker 2>Eight hundred two two two five two two two. Let's

0:21:04.000 --> 0:21:06.080
<v Speaker 2>go to Bob in Culver City.

0:21:06.280 --> 0:21:11.280
<v Speaker 8>Bob, Hello, Hi, I have a perfect place for you.

0:21:11.440 --> 0:21:14.680
<v Speaker 8>But the big question is can you afford to live

0:21:14.720 --> 0:21:15.600
<v Speaker 8>in this area?

0:21:16.400 --> 0:21:19.480
<v Speaker 2>Probably not. I work in radio, Bob, so probably not.

0:21:21.960 --> 0:21:27.400
<v Speaker 8>Well, you'd have to afford to live in Ladera Heights

0:21:27.800 --> 0:21:31.560
<v Speaker 8>about a one and a half million, and the houses

0:21:31.600 --> 0:21:35.919
<v Speaker 8>are renting for about six to seven thousand a month.

0:21:36.760 --> 0:21:41.720
<v Speaker 8>And it's absolutely perfect. It's ten minutes south of Culver City.

0:21:42.200 --> 0:21:45.600
<v Speaker 8>It takes ten minutes to get to Lax, it takes

0:21:45.720 --> 0:21:48.879
<v Speaker 8>ten minutes to get to the Marina del Rey. We

0:21:49.040 --> 0:21:53.639
<v Speaker 8>have a highway patrol on the southwest corner, and we

0:21:53.920 --> 0:21:57.760
<v Speaker 8>have the sheriff and they're terrific. It's a wonderful place.

0:21:58.000 --> 0:22:04.000
<v Speaker 8>I walk every day and there must be half the

0:22:04.520 --> 0:22:06.560
<v Speaker 8>residents now are young people.

0:22:08.080 --> 0:22:10.399
<v Speaker 2>Well, I love to hear that. That checks all the

0:22:10.400 --> 0:22:12.359
<v Speaker 2>boxes for me. Heck, I could probably walk to the

0:22:12.440 --> 0:22:15.639
<v Speaker 2>radio station from there. Ladera Heights. I'm gonna have to

0:22:15.720 --> 0:22:17.760
<v Speaker 2>check it out and see if that is in within

0:22:17.840 --> 0:22:20.600
<v Speaker 2>my price range, or my theoretical price range. Thanks so

0:22:20.680 --> 0:22:25.119
<v Speaker 2>much for the call, Bob appreciated. I mean, you know,

0:22:25.680 --> 0:22:29.119
<v Speaker 2>we'll see. I'm definitely at a point where it's like

0:22:29.240 --> 0:22:32.359
<v Speaker 2>I could be spending more on you know, rent or

0:22:32.359 --> 0:22:35.919
<v Speaker 2>a mortgage than I am now. I wouldn't like to

0:22:35.960 --> 0:22:39.240
<v Speaker 2>do that, but might be a necessary evil. Quality of

0:22:39.280 --> 0:22:42.119
<v Speaker 2>life may make that worth it. Just means I have

0:22:42.160 --> 0:22:45.160
<v Speaker 2>to cut down on the tequila a little bit. Let's

0:22:45.200 --> 0:22:48.240
<v Speaker 2>go to David in Long Beach.

0:22:48.400 --> 0:22:52.640
<v Speaker 3>David, Hello, good, good, thank you. Listen. I presently am

0:22:52.680 --> 0:22:58.320
<v Speaker 3>living where there's ocean water running right up against my building. Here.

0:22:58.320 --> 0:23:00.520
<v Speaker 3>I'm on Naples Island and Long Beach, which I'm not

0:23:00.560 --> 0:23:04.360
<v Speaker 3>saying this is the best for what you're trying to accomplish,

0:23:04.400 --> 0:23:07.359
<v Speaker 3>but I'm approaching ninety, which is where I've lived in

0:23:07.400 --> 0:23:12.080
<v Speaker 3>all these places. And I started at age fifteen with

0:23:12.200 --> 0:23:15.920
<v Speaker 3>my own boat, unusual, and we lived in Newport Beach

0:23:16.000 --> 0:23:21.520
<v Speaker 3>on Balboa Island. Weatherwise, that's fantastic pretty much all year round.

0:23:21.600 --> 0:23:24.200
<v Speaker 3>I think the pricing would probably kill you there now.

0:23:25.480 --> 0:23:27.720
<v Speaker 3>The one that I'm thinking of are all the ones

0:23:27.760 --> 0:23:31.439
<v Speaker 3>you mentioned, and I've also been there is the city

0:23:31.440 --> 0:23:36.439
<v Speaker 3>of Ventura has more cool weather than Long Beach is

0:23:36.480 --> 0:23:39.840
<v Speaker 3>actually pretty hot, with the exception of right here on

0:23:39.920 --> 0:23:42.919
<v Speaker 3>the water. You walk less than a mile inland just

0:23:42.960 --> 0:23:45.359
<v Speaker 3>to the Coast Highway here and it goes up twenty

0:23:45.400 --> 0:23:48.119
<v Speaker 3>degrees because I know, I walked to Trader Joe's and

0:23:48.160 --> 0:23:50.639
<v Speaker 3>it's twenty degrees higher than less than a mile to

0:23:50.680 --> 0:23:56.000
<v Speaker 3>my house. So Ventura Ventura has the weather that's more

0:23:56.119 --> 0:23:59.720
<v Speaker 3>like northern or central California. And what I don't know

0:23:59.720 --> 0:24:04.440
<v Speaker 3>about Venturer is the price of housing. But it does

0:24:04.520 --> 0:24:07.520
<v Speaker 3>have a reasonable good walking area by the mission there

0:24:07.960 --> 0:24:12.320
<v Speaker 3>and everything. And again the ocean part of it is colder.

0:24:12.359 --> 0:24:15.520
<v Speaker 3>The water temperature there is actually colder than around Long Beach.

0:24:16.160 --> 0:24:19.440
<v Speaker 3>So I would like that one if I were picking

0:24:19.520 --> 0:24:23.159
<v Speaker 3>it economically, because I think you might be able to

0:24:23.160 --> 0:24:25.639
<v Speaker 3>get in there. The other thing is you've got somebody

0:24:25.640 --> 0:24:28.520
<v Speaker 3>who used to work at the radio station named Mark Germain.

0:24:29.080 --> 0:24:32.080
<v Speaker 3>I was friends with his parents. They had moved to

0:24:32.320 --> 0:24:35.400
<v Speaker 3>the Venturer area and lived there, probably for the rest

0:24:35.400 --> 0:24:37.640
<v Speaker 3>of the latter part of their lives. If you know Mark,

0:24:38.040 --> 0:24:40.199
<v Speaker 3>you might give him a call and he could probably

0:24:40.200 --> 0:24:42.200
<v Speaker 3>tell you what was good or But he's a pretty

0:24:42.240 --> 0:24:44.399
<v Speaker 3>opinionated guy, so they'll give it to you straight.

0:24:45.720 --> 0:24:48.680
<v Speaker 2>Well, those are some great suggestions. I've thought a lot

0:24:48.680 --> 0:24:51.080
<v Speaker 2>about ventur I'm actually going to go hang out there

0:24:51.119 --> 0:24:54.520
<v Speaker 2>this weekend. The weather is definitely much better, you know,

0:24:54.640 --> 0:24:57.639
<v Speaker 2>and that at this point it used to not bother

0:24:57.720 --> 0:24:59.719
<v Speaker 2>me as much because I've got air conditioning, but I

0:24:59.800 --> 0:25:02.280
<v Speaker 2>like to be outdoors in it. I'm gonna tell you know.

0:25:02.520 --> 0:25:05.480
<v Speaker 2>Today it was eight am and it was too hot

0:25:05.520 --> 0:25:07.840
<v Speaker 2>to be walking outside where I'm like, I can't even

0:25:07.840 --> 0:25:10.520
<v Speaker 2>bring the dogs. This is miserable, And like, for as

0:25:10.560 --> 0:25:13.400
<v Speaker 2>much as I'm paying to be in LA, I could

0:25:13.400 --> 0:25:15.680
<v Speaker 2>be paying less and have better weather in a place

0:25:15.760 --> 0:25:18.160
<v Speaker 2>like Ventura. So that that that's one test.

0:25:18.200 --> 0:25:21.800
<v Speaker 3>See sure Ventura they have they have railroad up there,

0:25:21.880 --> 0:25:24.919
<v Speaker 3>multiple trains a day into LA with stops in the

0:25:25.000 --> 0:25:28.480
<v Speaker 3>valley and see me and everything else, So that's available

0:25:28.480 --> 0:25:28.840
<v Speaker 3>to you.

0:25:29.720 --> 0:25:32.439
<v Speaker 2>I would like that, I'm telling you I would if

0:25:32.480 --> 0:25:34.280
<v Speaker 2>I lived in a place where I could figure out

0:25:34.280 --> 0:25:37.320
<v Speaker 2>a way to commute that doesn't involve driving, I would

0:25:37.320 --> 0:25:39.919
<v Speaker 2>figure that out because I've had enough of driving on

0:25:39.960 --> 0:25:42.919
<v Speaker 2>these freeways. Thanks so much for the call, David, appreciate it.

0:25:43.280 --> 0:25:45.840
<v Speaker 2>Eight hundred two two two five two two two is

0:25:45.880 --> 0:25:49.080
<v Speaker 2>the telephone number. I have had it with living and

0:25:49.119 --> 0:25:52.280
<v Speaker 2>paying taxes in the city of Los Angeles. I feel

0:25:52.280 --> 0:25:55.080
<v Speaker 2>like I get nothing for how much I pay, and

0:25:55.119 --> 0:25:58.199
<v Speaker 2>because I live in the valley, it's hot, there's nothing

0:25:58.280 --> 0:26:02.200
<v Speaker 2>fun to do, and I'm thank of it. So if

0:26:02.240 --> 0:26:04.640
<v Speaker 2>you have a suggestion as to where I should try

0:26:04.680 --> 0:26:06.760
<v Speaker 2>to look into moving in the next year or so,

0:26:07.520 --> 0:26:11.439
<v Speaker 2>any part of southern California within reason eight hundred two

0:26:11.560 --> 0:26:14.520
<v Speaker 2>two two five two two two one eight hundred two

0:26:14.600 --> 0:26:24.600
<v Speaker 2>two two five two two two. Let's go to Patricia Patricia. Hello, Patricia,

0:26:28.400 --> 0:26:32.600
<v Speaker 2>Patricia going once, Patricia going twice, call us back.

0:26:34.200 --> 0:26:34.480
<v Speaker 1>You know.

0:26:36.040 --> 0:26:40.120
<v Speaker 2>It is uh. I've had this gripe before, but every

0:26:40.160 --> 0:26:42.280
<v Speaker 2>time it happens, I just have to say it out loud.

0:26:43.240 --> 0:26:48.040
<v Speaker 2>It is twenty twenty six. There is ai technology that

0:26:48.119 --> 0:26:52.320
<v Speaker 2>does so many incredible things. We're sending unman rockets to

0:26:52.400 --> 0:26:55.520
<v Speaker 2>the moon every single day. We are in the age

0:26:55.680 --> 0:26:59.719
<v Speaker 2>of information, We're in the age of the future, and

0:26:59.800 --> 0:27:05.680
<v Speaker 2>so all phone quality has never been more unreliable. What

0:27:06.040 --> 0:27:11.720
<v Speaker 2>is going on with that? It is just something to

0:27:11.760 --> 0:27:13.920
<v Speaker 2>think about now. I've been getting a lot of message

0:27:14.200 --> 0:27:17.080
<v Speaker 2>on social media and at my email at Randy Wang

0:27:17.200 --> 0:27:20.000
<v Speaker 2>Radio at gmail dot com on this topic as well,

0:27:20.640 --> 0:27:24.359
<v Speaker 2>and Andrea writes in listening to your show right now,

0:27:24.840 --> 0:27:28.080
<v Speaker 2>sounds like you want to move to Long Beach. Best

0:27:28.160 --> 0:27:32.960
<v Speaker 2>foodie city in a California, Most dog friendly city in California. Well,

0:27:33.080 --> 0:27:36.320
<v Speaker 2>DEM's fighting words. Because Carmel by the Sea, we'll say

0:27:36.320 --> 0:27:38.840
<v Speaker 2>they're the most dog friendly city. Let's say the most

0:27:38.880 --> 0:27:43.320
<v Speaker 2>dog friendly city in southern California. Most walkable and bikeable,

0:27:43.720 --> 0:27:47.800
<v Speaker 2>amazing weather, no inland valley heat were perfectly accessible to

0:27:47.840 --> 0:27:50.240
<v Speaker 2>Orange County and the city of la with access to

0:27:50.359 --> 0:27:53.160
<v Speaker 2>every freeway. We have the best parks, and we are

0:27:53.240 --> 0:27:56.840
<v Speaker 2>super fun. I'm going to say this right now. Every

0:27:56.920 --> 0:27:59.439
<v Speaker 2>time we have gone down to do a live event

0:27:59.600 --> 0:28:03.000
<v Speaker 2>at Gladstones in Long Beach with my buddy John sayingmeister,

0:28:04.119 --> 0:28:06.280
<v Speaker 2>I look around and I'm like, boy, this is a

0:28:06.359 --> 0:28:10.840
<v Speaker 2>super super fun place. In fact, one of the days

0:28:10.840 --> 0:28:13.399
<v Speaker 2>we did one of those remotes, I got in very

0:28:13.440 --> 0:28:17.080
<v Speaker 2>early and just did like a walk around the harbor

0:28:17.119 --> 0:28:18.920
<v Speaker 2>and the marina there. You know what it was.

0:28:19.119 --> 0:28:19.439
<v Speaker 1>It was.

0:28:19.520 --> 0:28:22.480
<v Speaker 2>I went there for the Grand Prix, and because of

0:28:22.480 --> 0:28:25.640
<v Speaker 2>the Grand Prix, you couldn't just get to where Gladstones

0:28:25.720 --> 0:28:27.679
<v Speaker 2>is because that's where the Grand Prix is going on,

0:28:28.000 --> 0:28:29.680
<v Speaker 2>so I had to go all the way around, and

0:28:29.720 --> 0:28:31.919
<v Speaker 2>I decided because I had time to take the scenic

0:28:32.000 --> 0:28:35.240
<v Speaker 2>route and like walked around the harbor and saw the

0:28:35.320 --> 0:28:37.920
<v Speaker 2>Queen Mary and like, this would be kind of an

0:28:37.920 --> 0:28:40.120
<v Speaker 2>awesome view every single day. And of course, you know

0:28:40.160 --> 0:28:42.600
<v Speaker 2>you have good dining. Gladstone's is out there, there's tons

0:28:42.640 --> 0:28:45.600
<v Speaker 2>of great restaurants. I remember going to the Pike many

0:28:45.720 --> 0:28:47.880
<v Speaker 2>years ago with a friend of mine and just having

0:28:48.040 --> 0:28:51.320
<v Speaker 2>so much fun. Yeah, and you know, Long Beach does

0:28:51.360 --> 0:28:55.360
<v Speaker 2>have its problems, as every city does, but yeah, Long

0:28:55.400 --> 0:28:57.400
<v Speaker 2>Beach would be really cool. And what would be cool

0:28:57.440 --> 0:29:00.640
<v Speaker 2>about Long Beach or anywhere around that area is one

0:29:00.680 --> 0:29:04.800
<v Speaker 2>of the few nice things about living where I live

0:29:04.840 --> 0:29:08.040
<v Speaker 2>in the Valley is we have Burbank Airport, and Burbank

0:29:08.080 --> 0:29:10.840
<v Speaker 2>Airport is great for those short haul trips, but Long

0:29:10.840 --> 0:29:14.120
<v Speaker 2>Beach has Long Beach Airport. I'd be open to that.

0:29:14.120 --> 0:29:18.560
<v Speaker 2>That's definitely a possibility. So yeah, definitely another place that

0:29:18.720 --> 0:29:21.240
<v Speaker 2>I am considering. And in fact, we have a remote

0:29:21.240 --> 0:29:26.240
<v Speaker 2>in Long Beach at Gladstone's on October ninth, and I

0:29:26.360 --> 0:29:28.160
<v Speaker 2>may just have to hang out for a while and

0:29:28.200 --> 0:29:31.160
<v Speaker 2>just picture what life could be like. Now downtown Long

0:29:31.200 --> 0:29:35.080
<v Speaker 2>Beach probably out of my price range. So subscribe to

0:29:35.120 --> 0:29:37.640

0:29:37.680 --> 0:29:40.880

0:29:53.360 --> 0:29:56.560
<v Speaker 2>This is something I think about every single day. I

0:29:56.600 --> 0:29:58.240
<v Speaker 2>do not want to live in the city of Los

0:29:58.280 --> 0:30:02.000
<v Speaker 2>Angeles anymore. And politics is part of it, but part

0:30:02.000 --> 0:30:04.719
<v Speaker 2>of it is just there is too much traffic, it

0:30:04.760 --> 0:30:06.760
<v Speaker 2>is too spread out, and there's really not a lot

0:30:06.800 --> 0:30:09.080
<v Speaker 2>of fun stuff to do where I live in the valley.

0:30:09.400 --> 0:30:11.960
<v Speaker 2>So I want to be somewhere it's a little more fun,

0:30:12.200 --> 0:30:14.840
<v Speaker 2>that's a little more walkable, maybe has a little better weather,

0:30:15.400 --> 0:30:17.480
<v Speaker 2>and just a better quality of life. As I'm sure

0:30:17.520 --> 0:30:19.840
<v Speaker 2>so many people listening right now have a better quality

0:30:19.840 --> 0:30:22.160
<v Speaker 2>of life than I do. So tell me where I

0:30:22.200 --> 0:30:25.080
<v Speaker 2>should go. Eight hundred two two two five two two

0:30:25.200 --> 0:30:28.600

<v Speaker 2>two two two five two two two one. Eight hundred

<v Speaker 2>two two two five two two two. I am seriously

0:30:59.040 --> 0:31:02.760
<v Speaker 2>considering in the next year getting out of the city

0:31:02.760 --> 0:31:07.600
<v Speaker 2>of Los Angeles moving somewhere else in southern California because

0:31:07.640 --> 0:31:10.440
<v Speaker 2>the quality of life in LA is so much worse

0:31:10.520 --> 0:31:12.680
<v Speaker 2>than so many other places, and for a lot of

0:31:12.680 --> 0:31:16.640
<v Speaker 2>it is just as expensive. So I'm taking suggestions. Where

0:31:16.680 --> 0:31:19.120
<v Speaker 2>do you think I should move to. Eight hundred two

0:31:19.240 --> 0:31:22.080
<v Speaker 2>two two five two two two. Let's start with Tom

0:31:22.080 --> 0:31:26.760
<v Speaker 2>and San Clementy. Tom. Hello, yeah, hey, Randy.

0:31:27.880 --> 0:31:31.280
<v Speaker 7>I don't know if you can work remote, but if

0:31:31.320 --> 0:31:34.000
<v Speaker 7>you can, come on down to Sant Clementy. The ocean

0:31:34.080 --> 0:31:37.440
<v Speaker 7>is beautiful, there's trails all over the place, and uh

0:31:38.080 --> 0:31:40.280
<v Speaker 7>restaurants too. I think you'd really like it.

0:31:41.160 --> 0:31:43.480
<v Speaker 2>I've driven through many times and need to spend more

0:31:43.520 --> 0:31:46.240
<v Speaker 2>time there for sure, and the plan is eventually to

0:31:46.280 --> 0:31:48.480
<v Speaker 2>work remotely. I'll tell you that very much. That is

0:31:48.600 --> 0:31:52.080
<v Speaker 2>definitely a possibility. Tom. Thank you so much for the call.

0:31:52.200 --> 0:31:55.120
<v Speaker 2>Appreciate it. Oh, being in South Orange County would be

0:31:55.160 --> 0:31:58.280
<v Speaker 2>so great. Let's go to Mary and your Belinda. Mary.

0:31:58.320 --> 0:32:04.400
<v Speaker 9>Hello, hey Randy. How about North Orange County. Lots of

0:32:04.440 --> 0:32:08.600
<v Speaker 9>small cities. Downtown Orange has got the Circle of Orange

0:32:08.600 --> 0:32:13.080
<v Speaker 9>with a lot of restaurants. Downtown Fullerton is always happening.

0:32:13.520 --> 0:32:17.680
<v Speaker 9>Bria Mall is actually getting changed to that outdoor mall

0:32:17.800 --> 0:32:20.600
<v Speaker 9>you were talking about. And they've got restaurants, lots of hiking,

0:32:20.640 --> 0:32:24.040
<v Speaker 9>and your Belinda and Bray even has a little Redwood

0:32:24.080 --> 0:32:24.920
<v Speaker 9>Force to visit.

0:32:25.800 --> 0:32:29.160
<v Speaker 2>Oh wow, there's lots of options, you know. I've been

0:32:29.200 --> 0:32:31.680
<v Speaker 2>through some of those areas. I have my brother lives

0:32:31.680 --> 0:32:33.720
<v Speaker 2>in Irvine, he loves Orange County. I have a friend

0:32:33.720 --> 0:32:37.080
<v Speaker 2>that lives in Fullerton. There is such a better quality

0:32:37.120 --> 0:32:40.240
<v Speaker 2>of life in Orange County. If the commute thing would

0:32:40.480 --> 0:32:42.960
<v Speaker 2>would irk me, but you know what, for so many people,

0:32:42.960 --> 0:32:46.239
<v Speaker 2>I bet it's totally worth it. Plus, my commute is

0:32:46.320 --> 0:32:49.400
<v Speaker 2>only fourteen miles and it's awful. It might be better

0:32:49.680 --> 0:32:51.960
<v Speaker 2>you know down there. Think so much for the call, Mary,

0:32:52.000 --> 0:32:54.360
<v Speaker 2>appreciate it. Let's go to Tony and Irvine.

0:32:54.480 --> 0:33:00.880
<v Speaker 10>Tony, Hello, Hey, Tony Barbarina, how are you buddy and great,

0:33:01.360 --> 0:33:01.600
<v Speaker 10>got it?

0:33:01.680 --> 0:33:01.920
<v Speaker 3>Great?

0:33:02.560 --> 0:33:03.080
<v Speaker 5>Well listen.

0:33:03.240 --> 0:33:04.640
<v Speaker 10>First of all, I love your show. I love you,

0:33:04.640 --> 0:33:07.600
<v Speaker 10>have been listening a long time. I'm a real city'san nervine.

0:33:07.600 --> 0:33:09.640
<v Speaker 10>I got to tell you I live here for thirty years.

0:33:10.120 --> 0:33:14.719
<v Speaker 10>Well run, well planned, clean, manicured. The tops are bored

0:33:15.280 --> 0:33:18.320
<v Speaker 10>and well funded. And you know, crime here is like

0:33:18.520 --> 0:33:21.360
<v Speaker 10>it's it's you have to find it. So if you're

0:33:21.400 --> 0:33:24.040
<v Speaker 10>looking for a place where you feel you can relax

0:33:24.360 --> 0:33:26.920
<v Speaker 10>and you're getting, you know, something expensive, but you're also

0:33:26.960 --> 0:33:28.320
<v Speaker 10>going to sell it in the future for a lot

0:33:28.320 --> 0:33:31.400
<v Speaker 10>of money, and you want to have clean, comfortable, organized,

0:33:31.440 --> 0:33:34.600
<v Speaker 10>well run city, you really got to dig into Irvia, California.

0:33:34.680 --> 0:33:37.280
<v Speaker 10>Everyone I helped buy a house here is just so happy,

0:33:37.600 --> 0:33:39.960
<v Speaker 10>especially when they sell later. Oh.

0:33:40.120 --> 0:33:43.040
<v Speaker 2>I couldn't agree with you more. My brother lives in Irvine.

0:33:43.080 --> 0:33:45.400
<v Speaker 2>I go down to the Spectrum a few times a year.

0:33:45.560 --> 0:33:48.400
<v Speaker 2>It's it's so much fun to other It's so clean

0:33:48.520 --> 0:33:51.840
<v Speaker 2>down there, and you're right, it is the safest city

0:33:51.840 --> 0:33:55.280
<v Speaker 2>in America for a reason. And you're still close to

0:33:55.320 --> 0:33:57.959
<v Speaker 2>the beach. You know, Newport's right down the road. It's

0:33:58.400 --> 0:33:59.400
<v Speaker 2>Irvine is great.

0:34:01.760 --> 0:34:02.040
<v Speaker 3>It is.

0:34:02.320 --> 0:34:04.760
<v Speaker 10>Some people complain about how it's expensive, to be here.

0:34:05.000 --> 0:34:07.120
<v Speaker 10>But you know what, you know, people who works hard

0:34:07.160 --> 0:34:09.319
<v Speaker 10>and make a lot of money, they also have a

0:34:09.360 --> 0:34:11.839
<v Speaker 10>right to list someplace nice too. It's okay to help

0:34:11.880 --> 0:34:13.880
<v Speaker 10>them poor people. I do with my money and charity

0:34:13.920 --> 0:34:17.040
<v Speaker 10>and help. But when you work hard, risk invest and

0:34:17.040 --> 0:34:19.399
<v Speaker 10>you've got a family, you should have places you could

0:34:19.440 --> 0:34:22.440
<v Speaker 10>purchase more expensive things and get the benefit of the

0:34:22.480 --> 0:34:26.040
<v Speaker 10>fruits of your labor. And there are some somewhat affordable areas,

0:34:26.239 --> 0:34:29.640
<v Speaker 10>but overall, if you're making any decent money or greater,

0:34:29.920 --> 0:34:32.239
<v Speaker 10>it's a nice place to live and you're buying you know,

0:34:32.560 --> 0:34:34.600
<v Speaker 10>more rich to the right, not as richual over to

0:34:34.600 --> 0:34:37.440
<v Speaker 10>the left nearby, And there's a lot of choices. It's

0:34:37.800 --> 0:34:41.520
<v Speaker 10>for everyone, but it's not for everyone. And that's true

0:34:41.560 --> 0:34:44.120
<v Speaker 10>like Newport Beach and the most expensive areas too. Right,

0:34:44.160 --> 0:34:46.160
<v Speaker 10>there's a different class that could be there. And when

0:34:46.160 --> 0:34:48.439
<v Speaker 10>you're making money to buy a ten million dollar house,

0:34:48.440 --> 0:34:50.920
<v Speaker 10>you got that. The rest of us we've got a irvine.

0:34:51.000 --> 0:34:53.560
<v Speaker 10>I would encourage anybody to really look out of yourself,

0:34:54.040 --> 0:34:56.480
<v Speaker 10>like in person, and just drive around with coffee and

0:34:56.560 --> 0:34:59.120
<v Speaker 10>you'll drive away going, my god, it's so it's just

0:34:59.120 --> 0:35:03.200
<v Speaker 10>so nice. Lots of parking, very organized. I highly recommend it.

0:35:03.320 --> 0:35:04.960
<v Speaker 10>Not the only place in the world to live, but

0:35:05.080 --> 0:35:06.600
<v Speaker 10>definitely should be into consideration.

0:35:07.400 --> 0:35:09.319
<v Speaker 2>It definitely is. And I love that advice too. It's

0:35:09.360 --> 0:35:10.920
<v Speaker 2>something that I want to just do more, is just

0:35:10.920 --> 0:35:14.400
<v Speaker 2>start driving around and start picturing myself in different places

0:35:14.440 --> 0:35:16.759
<v Speaker 2>and you know, could I live here? Go you know,

0:35:16.800 --> 0:35:20.000
<v Speaker 2>instead of typical Saturday just going with the wife and

0:35:20.040 --> 0:35:22.359
<v Speaker 2>the dogs to the usual places we go to, Let's

0:35:22.400 --> 0:35:24.239
<v Speaker 2>go down to one of these cities. Let's see what

0:35:24.280 --> 0:35:26.840
<v Speaker 2>would be like. See if it really, you know, is

0:35:26.880 --> 0:35:30.080
<v Speaker 2>a big change. I love that idea, and Irvine definitely

0:35:30.120 --> 0:35:31.719
<v Speaker 2>on the list. Thank you so much for the call.

0:35:31.800 --> 0:35:37.080
<v Speaker 2>Appreciate it. Irvine is great when I drive down there.

0:35:37.480 --> 0:35:41.560
<v Speaker 2>Getting there is a lot from especially the San Fernando Valley,

0:35:41.600 --> 0:35:43.960
<v Speaker 2>But once you're there, why would you ever want to leave?

0:35:43.960 --> 0:35:46.480
<v Speaker 2>And that's true for so much of Orange County. Maybe

0:35:46.560 --> 0:35:49.319
<v Speaker 2>we just moved the radio station to Orange County and

0:35:49.360 --> 0:35:52.279
<v Speaker 2>then everybody can move down there. You know, come on,

0:35:52.320 --> 0:35:55.400
<v Speaker 2>there's got to be some wealthy real estate magnate in

0:35:55.480 --> 0:35:58.880
<v Speaker 2>Huntington Beach that wants to buy the radio station. Relocate

0:35:58.920 --> 0:36:02.200
<v Speaker 2>everybody down to HB. HB would be great too. I

0:36:02.239 --> 0:36:04.839
<v Speaker 2>also got a ton of emails here. I really appreciate this.

0:36:04.920 --> 0:36:07.799
<v Speaker 2>It's great, Ed writes in Randy. I would go for

0:36:07.880 --> 0:36:11.239
<v Speaker 2>Ventura because of the temperature. Great restaurants, homes don't have

0:36:11.320 --> 0:36:13.800
<v Speaker 2>air conditioners. I still want an ac and you'll be

0:36:13.840 --> 0:36:17.400
<v Speaker 2>close to wine Country and solving. That is true. My

0:36:17.520 --> 0:36:20.200
<v Speaker 2>son and daughter in law lived there, my granddaughter lived there.

0:36:20.239 --> 0:36:23.840
<v Speaker 2>Housing a little expensive but worth it. You know, my

0:36:23.920 --> 0:36:26.640
<v Speaker 2>wife and I do frequent Santa Barbara Wine Country, which

0:36:26.680 --> 0:36:29.759
<v Speaker 2>is two hours from where we are now. But if

0:36:29.760 --> 0:36:32.640
<v Speaker 2>we lived in like the Ventura area, that's like one

0:36:32.680 --> 0:36:35.320
<v Speaker 2>hour away, which means we'd be going to wine Country

0:36:35.440 --> 0:36:37.840
<v Speaker 2>a lot. If Santa Barbara's like a half hour away,

0:36:38.680 --> 0:36:43.879
<v Speaker 2>that would be pretty darn cool. Also, you know, last

0:36:43.960 --> 0:36:46.320
<v Speaker 2>weekend we went to go hang out in Westlake Village,

0:36:46.600 --> 0:36:50.200
<v Speaker 2>which it's gorgeous there, you know, right on the tip

0:36:50.200 --> 0:36:53.759
<v Speaker 2>of Thousand Oaks. I really like that Losa Gaves in

0:36:53.800 --> 0:36:56.240
<v Speaker 2>that big shopping center. We also went to the figure

0:36:56.239 --> 0:36:59.719
<v Speaker 2>Out Mountain Brewing Company, which that's the most southern location

0:36:59.840 --> 0:37:02.240
<v Speaker 2>that they have, but they're big, like in Los of Libos,

0:37:02.320 --> 0:37:05.200
<v Speaker 2>what have you. That is a great brewery. I was

0:37:05.200 --> 0:37:07.840
<v Speaker 2>sitting around there, I was having their hazy IPM like

0:37:08.200 --> 0:37:10.400
<v Speaker 2>we should do a live event here. Maybe we figure

0:37:10.440 --> 0:37:13.279
<v Speaker 2>that out someday. But love that area as well. And

0:37:13.480 --> 0:37:16.000
<v Speaker 2>every time I go somewhere that's not the city of

0:37:16.120 --> 0:37:19.160
<v Speaker 2>La I'm like, Wow, it's so nice. Like there is

0:37:19.239 --> 0:37:23.520
<v Speaker 2>this beauty and splendor that is southern California that I

0:37:23.680 --> 0:37:28.719
<v Speaker 2>don't feel every day. I do not feel it being

0:37:28.800 --> 0:37:33.600
<v Speaker 2>in the middle of the same Fernando Valley. I don't

0:37:33.600 --> 0:37:36.839
<v Speaker 2>feel the quality of life that I know so many

0:37:36.880 --> 0:37:39.480
<v Speaker 2>people have and it's why they pay to be here.

0:37:40.360 --> 0:37:43.040
<v Speaker 2>So I think we're going to figure something out here.

0:37:43.080 --> 0:37:45.640
<v Speaker 2>But thank you all so much for all of the emails.

0:37:45.920 --> 0:37:49.080
<v Speaker 2>Michael writes in I'm thinking Pismo Beach, Grover Beach, or

0:37:49.080 --> 0:37:51.719
<v Speaker 2>Oceano homes are half the price. Someone called it and

0:37:51.760 --> 0:37:54.800
<v Speaker 2>only said Cambria. I really have to check out Cambria.

0:37:54.840 --> 0:37:56.480
<v Speaker 2>We did a show a long time ago which is

0:37:56.480 --> 0:37:59.000
<v Speaker 2>like hidden Gem places to go on road trips, and

0:37:59.080 --> 0:38:01.960
<v Speaker 2>someone mentioned I need to get out there. Do like

0:38:02.000 --> 0:38:05.279
<v Speaker 2>a trip to slow Maybe go to Heymbria, check out

0:38:05.280 --> 0:38:07.800
<v Speaker 2>some of that more central coast area. There's a whole

0:38:08.040 --> 0:38:11.480
<v Speaker 2>This state is massive and there is so much to see,

0:38:11.560 --> 0:38:15.040
<v Speaker 2>and I have seen so little of it, and I

0:38:15.040 --> 0:38:17.120
<v Speaker 2>want to do more about that too. We're already talking

0:38:17.120 --> 0:38:19.359
<v Speaker 2>about some road trips that we want to take next year,

0:38:19.680 --> 0:38:23.319
<v Speaker 2>maybe go around to Tahoe and North State. And you know,

0:38:23.680 --> 0:38:27.160
<v Speaker 2>as I was drinking a Sierra Nevada hazy little thing

0:38:27.200 --> 0:38:29.759
<v Speaker 2>ipa and like, you know, I want to go check

0:38:29.760 --> 0:38:32.319
<v Speaker 2>out Chico, just see what it's like where the big

0:38:32.400 --> 0:38:34.720
<v Speaker 2>Sierra Nevada brewery is. That would be kind of cool.

0:38:35.880 --> 0:38:39.120
<v Speaker 2>I think that there there's a better way to live,

0:38:39.320 --> 0:38:42.080
<v Speaker 2>and a whole bunch of you listening have already figured

0:38:42.080 --> 0:38:46.799
<v Speaker 2>this out way ahead of me. CRP writs in Oxnard,

0:38:46.880 --> 0:38:49.400
<v Speaker 2>what a strange name. Maybe the houses are cheaper thanks

0:38:49.400 --> 0:38:51.600
<v Speaker 2>to the weird name. I think it's named after somebody.

0:38:52.080 --> 0:38:55.759
<v Speaker 2>The weather will be cooler on average than the La Basin. Yeah,

0:38:55.800 --> 0:38:58.359
<v Speaker 2>that's why we're thinking of going there this weekend, you know.

0:38:58.400 --> 0:39:02.320
<v Speaker 2>And I'm on constantly on Zillo, usually looking up places

0:39:02.360 --> 0:39:05.719
<v Speaker 2>in Santa Fe. But I am always looking at like, yea,

0:39:05.760 --> 0:39:09.480
<v Speaker 2>what would that cost? You know? And what we're living

0:39:09.520 --> 0:39:13.279
<v Speaker 2>in right now is fairly affordable, but maybe it's worth

0:39:13.280 --> 0:39:15.800
<v Speaker 2>it to pay a little more to have a little

0:39:15.800 --> 0:39:19.360
<v Speaker 2>better quality of life. The commute thing I'm gonna have

0:39:19.400 --> 0:39:22.800
<v Speaker 2>to figure that out. But you know, maybe this radio

0:39:22.800 --> 0:39:25.239
<v Speaker 2>station gets a little more successful and then Randy Wang

0:39:25.280 --> 0:39:27.200
<v Speaker 2>can work remotely full time and then we don't have

0:39:27.239 --> 0:39:31.880
<v Speaker 2>to worry about that one. Hey, have a wonderful, wonderful weekend, everybody.

0:39:31.920 --> 0:39:34.720
<v Speaker 2>It's going to be a jillion degrees, So go somewhere

0:39:34.800 --> 0:39:37.719
