0:00:28.160 --> 0:00:32.479
<v Speaker 1>Hi Steph. Hey, So Steph recently took a trip to

0:00:32.479 --> 0:00:35.520
<v Speaker 1>Los Angeles. Did she wants to share with us something

0:00:35.520 --> 0:00:37.640
<v Speaker 1>that happened to her. I have no idea what this is,

0:00:37.840 --> 0:00:40.839
<v Speaker 1>what this is, or where it's going. So what happened

0:00:40.920 --> 0:00:42.479
<v Speaker 1>in La Steph?

0:00:42.520 --> 0:00:45.000
<v Speaker 2>Well, it was my first time there ever. I've never

0:00:45.080 --> 0:00:47.440
<v Speaker 2>been more west of Pittsburgh, so I was like, this

0:00:47.479 --> 0:00:50.559
<v Speaker 2>is a great place to go. My friend hasn't been either,

0:00:50.680 --> 0:00:52.360
<v Speaker 2>so the two of us really wanted to dive in

0:00:52.400 --> 0:00:55.280
<v Speaker 2>and do all of the torrisy things. Go to the Observatory,

0:00:55.320 --> 0:00:58.320
<v Speaker 2>see the Hollywood Sign, Hollywood Walk of Fame. We even

0:00:58.440 --> 0:01:02.720
<v Speaker 2>ate at hard Rock Cafe and we were finishing up

0:01:02.720 --> 0:01:04.680
<v Speaker 2>eating and then we took a long walk. We ended

0:01:04.720 --> 0:01:07.160
<v Speaker 2>up on Vine Street, I think it was, and all

0:01:07.160 --> 0:01:09.440
<v Speaker 2>of a sudden, I see Elvis Durant on the ground.

0:01:09.440 --> 0:01:14.520
<v Speaker 2>I was like, what is he doing here?

0:01:14.920 --> 0:01:16.920
<v Speaker 1>I've been on the ground in La many times. I

0:01:16.959 --> 0:01:18.720
<v Speaker 1>don't recall being there while you were there. Can you

0:01:18.760 --> 0:01:19.440
<v Speaker 1>please explain?

0:01:19.959 --> 0:01:21.720
<v Speaker 2>So I see you in the pink star there. I'm like,

0:01:21.720 --> 0:01:23.680
<v Speaker 2>oh my gosh, Elvis has a star here. We have

0:01:23.760 --> 0:01:26.400
<v Speaker 2>to take a picture. And wait a minute. In my purse,

0:01:26.440 --> 0:01:28.840
<v Speaker 2>I had my wet wipes and I put one on

0:01:28.880 --> 0:01:30.959
<v Speaker 2>the ground. I started cleaning off your star.

0:01:33.440 --> 0:01:35.959
<v Speaker 1>Question was there any gum on that star? Because last

0:01:36.000 --> 0:01:38.200
<v Speaker 1>time I was there, we had to actually go inside

0:01:38.200 --> 0:01:39.960
<v Speaker 1>and scrape the gum off because.

0:01:39.680 --> 0:01:43.039
<v Speaker 2>Someone put gum on it. No, no gum. And there

0:01:43.080 --> 0:01:45.000
<v Speaker 2>was a nice I don't think he was a Valey,

0:01:45.040 --> 0:01:47.600
<v Speaker 2>but like a very nice man who was by the

0:01:47.600 --> 0:01:49.880
<v Speaker 2>hotel or the restaurant next door, and he was like,

0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:51.480
<v Speaker 2>who are you looking for? I'm like, no, I got him.

0:01:51.480 --> 0:01:52.200
<v Speaker 2>He's right here.

0:01:53.880 --> 0:01:56.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh wow, look at that. Yeah, here's the thing. If

0:01:56.160 --> 0:01:58.160
<v Speaker 1>you're visiting La, you're on the Hollywood Walk of Fame,

0:01:58.240 --> 0:02:02.080
<v Speaker 1>please have some wipes with you. Maybe a little gum scraper.

0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:04.560
<v Speaker 1>What are those things are called? Because people, I mean,

0:02:04.640 --> 0:02:06.480
<v Speaker 1>keep in mind, the whole world is walking down the street.

0:02:06.520 --> 0:02:08.520
<v Speaker 1>It's like Steph is like going to times Square and

0:02:08.600 --> 0:02:11.080
<v Speaker 1>licking the sidewalk. You gotta be really careful about that.

0:02:11.200 --> 0:02:13.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, my rod was nervous when I picked up the wipe.

0:02:13.280 --> 0:02:15.040
<v Speaker 2>She was like, you're gonna touch I'm like, what where

0:02:15.040 --> 0:02:17.799
<v Speaker 2>am I gonna put it? Yeah?

0:02:18.080 --> 0:02:18.360
<v Speaker 1>For you?

0:02:18.480 --> 0:02:20.919
<v Speaker 2>Can you hire somebody to go out to the Star

0:02:21.080 --> 0:02:23.400
<v Speaker 2>every month and just like do some maintenance on it?

0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:26.120
<v Speaker 1>And yes, I mean it doesn't take that much, does it.

0:02:26.240 --> 0:02:27.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I don't know who.

0:02:27.560 --> 0:02:29.160
<v Speaker 3>Was the last time you visited your star?

0:02:29.280 --> 0:02:31.560
<v Speaker 1>Elvis. I haven't seen my Star in quite some time.

0:02:32.040 --> 0:02:34.200
<v Speaker 1>It's been years. I mean, how long has it been

0:02:34.200 --> 0:02:37.040
<v Speaker 1>since I was twenty? Has a Star twenty nineteen? No,

0:02:37.280 --> 0:02:39.360
<v Speaker 1>twenty seventeen, twenty seventeen.

0:02:39.360 --> 0:02:42.600
<v Speaker 3>I was twenty seventeen, yeah, twenty seventeen.

0:02:42.840 --> 0:02:45.079
<v Speaker 1>Okay, Yeah. You know, if you're listening in LA and

0:02:45.120 --> 0:02:48.840
<v Speaker 1>you want a little extra gig, you know, daddy's got money,

0:02:48.880 --> 0:02:52.040
<v Speaker 1>what would you pay the start cleaner? I would pay

0:02:52.040 --> 0:02:55.480
<v Speaker 1>one hundred dollars a visit? Okay, okay, I mean and

0:02:55.520 --> 0:02:56.360
<v Speaker 1>shine that baby up.

0:02:56.400 --> 0:02:57.440
<v Speaker 2>I'll go back right now.

0:02:59.280 --> 0:03:03.079
<v Speaker 1>Will you pay for well? Okay? Okay, it's adding up.

0:03:03.120 --> 0:03:04.920
<v Speaker 1>So what else did you do in La? Other than

0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:06.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, hard rock? Cafe. I mean, what did you

0:03:07.120 --> 0:03:10.560

<v Speaker 1>Angeles or something that stood out from the old days

0:03:14.040 --> 0:03:16.720
<v Speaker 1>of Hollywood and movies And what did you see that

0:03:17.080 --> 0:03:19.639
<v Speaker 1>kind of reshifted your thought about what the city is

0:03:19.639 --> 0:03:20.320
<v Speaker 1>all about.

0:03:20.760 --> 0:03:22.519
<v Speaker 2>Well, just the fact that they have the Santa Monica

0:03:22.639 --> 0:03:24.680
<v Speaker 2>Peer and it's like right in near all of Hollywood.

0:03:24.720 --> 0:03:25.960

<v Speaker 1>Can you tell us which hotel it was?

0:03:45.280 --> 0:03:48.080
<v Speaker 2>It was the Citizen m And I was a little

0:03:48.160 --> 0:03:50.320
<v Speaker 2>nervous when we walked in because there was a huge

0:03:50.320 --> 0:03:52.640
<v Speaker 2>sign at the front that said porn in the shape

0:03:52.680 --> 0:03:54.800

<v Speaker 2>is that Philly?

0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:58.000
<v Speaker 1>And I was like, where are we gonna get into

0:03:58.120 --> 0:04:03.120

0:04:03.240 --> 0:04:05.880
<v Speaker 1>m hotels in LA in New York and Miami. I

0:04:05.920 --> 0:04:07.640
<v Speaker 1>mean they're everywhere, and they're supposed to be a very

0:04:07.720 --> 0:04:08.920
<v Speaker 1>very fun hotel.

0:04:10.080 --> 0:04:11.240
<v Speaker 2>Fun is an interesting word.

0:04:11.320 --> 0:04:15.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's a brand. It says here on their website.

0:04:15.120 --> 0:04:17.960
<v Speaker 1>It's it's from Mariott. It's a brand for the people

0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:22.000
<v Speaker 1>modern design meets essential comforts experience a unique and efficient

0:04:22.040 --> 0:04:25.520
<v Speaker 1>hotels day. Oh I never heard of them? Try, did

0:04:25.520 --> 0:04:26.080
<v Speaker 1>you get the bug?

0:04:26.240 --> 0:04:27.119
<v Speaker 3>Do you want to go back?

0:04:27.560 --> 0:04:28.800
<v Speaker 2>I do want to go back, but I think I'm

0:04:28.839 --> 0:04:30.840
<v Speaker 2>okay for right now. Like, I wouldn't want to move there.

0:04:31.240 --> 0:04:33.080
<v Speaker 2>It's a great little vacation spot though.

0:04:33.440 --> 0:04:35.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah someone who lived there?

0:04:35.600 --> 0:04:39.080
<v Speaker 3>Oh really right, yeah, eleven years I would. It's a

0:04:39.120 --> 0:04:41.599
<v Speaker 3>great place to visit. I could never live there again,

0:04:41.880 --> 0:04:44.159
<v Speaker 3>I really couldn't. It's just a different brand of people.

0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:45.800
<v Speaker 3>Did you notice that while you were out their staff

0:04:45.800 --> 0:04:46.320
<v Speaker 3>that people.

0:04:46.160 --> 0:04:47.080
<v Speaker 1>Will, yeah, be different.

0:04:47.240 --> 0:04:50.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, for sure. They're just not as like fast paced

0:04:50.279 --> 0:04:53.360
<v Speaker 2>and they're just like kind of I don't know. Everybody

0:04:53.400 --> 0:04:55.719
<v Speaker 2>wants to be something like everybody is either a writer

0:04:56.240 --> 0:04:59.120
<v Speaker 2>or a director or wants to be or not. You know,

0:04:59.440 --> 0:05:00.960
<v Speaker 2>even the way to or asked me what I did,

0:05:01.040 --> 0:05:02.760
<v Speaker 2>and I was like, that's really what you're gonna ask

0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:03.599
<v Speaker 2>me right now about.

0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:07.520
<v Speaker 1>You know, I used to not like LA at all,

0:05:07.600 --> 0:05:10.320
<v Speaker 1>but as I grew older, I really discovered I do

0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:13.520
<v Speaker 1>like LA a lot. And uh yeah, it depends on

0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:15.279
<v Speaker 1>where you are in your life as well. But when

0:05:15.400 --> 0:05:17.000
<v Speaker 1>Ghani asked you if you got the bug when you're

0:05:17.000 --> 0:05:20.480
<v Speaker 1>out there, I was thinking, like from the bed sheets

0:05:20.520 --> 0:05:22.920
<v Speaker 1>at the porn hotel, then.

0:05:22.279 --> 0:05:24.640
<v Speaker 3>Hopeaking of hotels when I don't know if you ever

0:05:24.680 --> 0:05:27.720
<v Speaker 3>stayed there, all of us. But our building in Los

0:05:27.760 --> 0:05:30.320
<v Speaker 3>Angeles was in Burbank and there was an hotel right

0:05:30.360 --> 0:05:33.320
<v Speaker 3>down the street called the Tangerine. It was like no

0:05:33.880 --> 0:05:37.360
<v Speaker 3>affiliation whatsoever, and that's where we would put people up

0:05:37.400 --> 0:05:40.080
<v Speaker 3>anytime they were staying from out of town. And it

0:05:40.240 --> 0:05:45.920
<v Speaker 3>was so embarrassing dropping there because was it nice. It

0:05:46.080 --> 0:05:49.119
<v Speaker 3>looks exactly like one of those rent room for thirty

0:05:49.160 --> 0:05:53.400
<v Speaker 3>minutes places. It used to be one of those places

0:05:53.400 --> 0:05:54.800
<v Speaker 3>where you could rent by the hour.

0:05:55.000 --> 0:05:59.080
<v Speaker 1>Oh god, so killet proof glass. I love it. The

0:05:59.200 --> 0:06:00.000
<v Speaker 1>iheard budgets.

0:06:01.560 --> 0:06:04.440
<v Speaker 3>I've redone it right, But you can't out, you know,

0:06:04.600 --> 0:06:07.320
<v Speaker 3>pace the look of one of those cheap cedy motels.

0:06:07.960 --> 0:06:09.560
<v Speaker 3>So it looks like there's either going to be a

0:06:09.600 --> 0:06:12.680
<v Speaker 3>body in the parking lot or hookers standing out front

0:06:12.680 --> 0:06:12.760
<v Speaker 3>of it.

0:06:12.960 --> 0:06:13.200
<v Speaker 2>Wow.

0:06:13.320 --> 0:06:15.159
<v Speaker 1>Sorry, wow, sorry to say that. So we really so

0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:17.000
<v Speaker 1>far I have not paid it quite a elegant picture

0:06:17.000 --> 0:06:20.600
<v Speaker 1>of Los Angeles or Burbank in this case. Well, look,

0:06:20.640 --> 0:06:22.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, I don't know. I love going out to

0:06:22.880 --> 0:06:25.000
<v Speaker 1>the West Coast. But you know the reason why I

0:06:25.040 --> 0:06:26.560
<v Speaker 1>don't think I could live on the West Coast is

0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:29.839
<v Speaker 1>because all of the natural disasters. They would they because

0:06:29.839 --> 0:06:34.680
<v Speaker 1>they do get really really intense with fires and slides

0:06:34.720 --> 0:06:39.080
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, el Nina, you know all of it. But

0:06:39.360 --> 0:06:41.920
<v Speaker 1>it's a nice place. So you and your friend are

0:06:41.920 --> 0:06:44.040
<v Speaker 1>you travel friends? You like to go different cities with

0:06:44.080 --> 0:06:47.119

<v Speaker 1>Your country?

0:06:50.080 --> 0:06:52.440
<v Speaker 2>Well, I'm going to Toronto for the first time ever

0:06:52.480 --> 0:06:53.400
<v Speaker 2>to see Bruno Mars.

0:06:55.680 --> 0:06:59.080
<v Speaker 1>Bruno Mars could play anywhere and you have a good time. Yep. Okay,

<v Speaker 1>How about Asia? What are you thinking?

0:07:08.360 --> 0:07:10.800
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I would love to go to Japan, but

0:07:11.400 --> 0:07:13.960
<v Speaker 2>I cannot swing that. Yeah, that'll be down the line.

0:07:14.120 --> 0:07:16.000
<v Speaker 2>For now, I want to see more of the US because,

0:07:33.840 --> 0:07:36.840
<v Speaker 1>Come on, all right, well, there you go. Thank you

0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:41.040
<v Speaker 1>for shining the star for me. I appreciate it. But

0:07:41.160 --> 0:07:43.200
<v Speaker 1>by the way, you know, I don't want to have

0:07:43.240 --> 0:07:44.880
<v Speaker 1>to put you on payroll. But if someone wants to

0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:47.640
<v Speaker 1>go over there monthly and clean my star up, much obliged.

0:07:48.240 --> 0:07:57.440
<v Speaker 1>In there you go, step everyone steps after party
