He's got his own cafe and 45 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: then he'll be the first hot seat guest on the Wednesday. 46 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,919 Speaker 1: How cool. Okay, there you go with all the housekeeping done, 47 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: let's enjoy. So I did try this bar. The brand 48 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 1: is new School spelt in Uskool, so you could almost 49 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:49,519 Speaker 1: go new Skill. Very cool. It's a crunch bar. I 50 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: got the flavor of French toast and beautiful picture of 51 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 1: French toast on it. It's one of these bars that 52 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: they're using al yulos to sweeten it, which is basically 53 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: that chicory fiber, and they get it from artichokes as well, 54 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: and it means that the fiber is high but the 55 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 1: sugars are super low. Loved it. My tummy is a 56 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: bit funny with this alulo stuff, so I've got to 57 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: figure out how I react to it. But it was 58 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 1: really really yummy. I just felt a bit bloated and 59 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 1: stuff after. On the health front, I'll give you a 60 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:24,079 Speaker 1: health food update. Went to a great cafe on Melrose 61 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 1: in West Hollywood. So if you're doing the vintage shop 62 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: along Melrose in West Hollywood, which is a famous place 63 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 1: to go vintage shopping, there's a cafe there called m Cafe. 64 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: Really great. I got like a a Norri rap and 65 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: this smoothie that was the toxin Ridder smoothie, really good, 66 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 1: really clean. I liked it because it had chlorella and 67 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 1: I think it had chlorophyll in it as well as 68 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: I always say this word wrong because of my lisp. 69 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: Was vera troll. Oh, I did it, okay, There so 70 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,119 Speaker 1: some anti aging stuff in there. It was really good. 71 00:03:58,160 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: This SMOOTHI was pretty finicking. I probably could have just 72 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 1: got smoothie, but the nai roll was delicious. I've also 73 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: had a yummy green smoothie from Lassons and that wash 74 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 1: I got a Wellness smoothie. But today I'm gonna go 75 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 1: and get the big It's called the Green Monster, which 76 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: is just all greens. But I got this other one 77 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 1: that had like wheat, grass, cane, pepper. I took a 78 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: photo of the ingredients for you, because you know, it's 79 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 1: fun to know what you're getting. So I got this 80 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: juice called the Wellness Tonic Organic fuji apples, organic kale, lemon, ginger, wheat, grass, tumeric, 81 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: and cane pepper, really really good. And then today I'm 82 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 1: going to get the Green Monster, which is celery, cucumber, kale, 83 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,479 Speaker 1: spinach and parsley. I'm gonna pick that up on the 84 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:51,160 Speaker 1: on my way to voice school today. So yeah, that 85 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: was a really good little spot for a green juice. 86 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,159 Speaker 1: I've also been to air One and got the big 87 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 1: Green Shout out to my mate Bonnie who told me 88 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: all about it. So you order it for extra spinach. 89 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: That's delicious, Probably my favorite green juice I've had in 90 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: La so far. It's a bit deer as you know 91 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 1: air One. You know, it's a bit more expensive. So 92 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 1: it cost me about fourteen dollars for a smoothie there 93 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: after the juice. So fourteen dollars American for a juice 94 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 1: that's like nearly twenty Australian dollars, Whereas at Lasson's the 95 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: green juice I got there was five ninety nine. So 96 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: I'm probably going to lean more towards Lassons because it's 97 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 1: just like literally half the price. I also had a 98 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: yummy meal with my mate Alex at a place called sugarfish. 99 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 1: I've told you about it before. It's really yummy Japanese. 100 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: We had some yummy saki. It was just so good. 101 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: And this story is like the iconic quintessential La story. 102 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 1: It was really busy and we were kind of jammed 103 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: in there and I was sitting less than two inches 104 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 1: away from Conan O'Brien and as we went on with 105 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: our meal and he was there with his son, and 106 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 1: I was like, I've got to get the courage up. 107 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: I've got to get the courried. I had a little 108 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 1: sip of saki and then I was like, right as 109 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: his bill came at the end because people were coming 110 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 1: up to him, but right as his bill came at 111 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:04,599 Speaker 1: the end, because I knew he was leaving, I was like, 112 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 1: I just got to say a big fan. And then 113 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 1: he just got chit chatting to us for like I 114 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 1: don't know five Minnos said that his favorite audience is 115 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: in Sydney, Australia. He goes I did a show, like, 116 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: I did a show downtown Sydney and the audience was amazing. 117 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: I love Australians and I was like, well, we love you, 118 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,839 Speaker 1: we love you. I literally said that. So that was 119 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: pretty fun. And I don't know if you know, but 120 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: one of my dreams is to be a late night 121 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 1: talk show talk show host. One day, so I had 122 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 1: this real like moment of being like, oh, hero hero moments. 123 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 1: That was a lot of fun. Okay. Also, oh, actually 124 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: another fun place. You know. I love Kara Hotel, but 125 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: I've only ever been there for lunch and dinner before today. 126 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 1: My little bud Stella was staying there, and so we 127 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: went there and had a coffee together and it was 128 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 1: so nice. I got an armand latus. I had the 129 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: best seat I've ever had when I visited Kara, literally 130 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:04,720 Speaker 1: on the side of the pool, and it was just 131 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: like so so beautiful and such a fun way to 132 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 1: have a little morning coffee date. Post yokes, I'll fill 133 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: you in on yolks in it. Oh, I can feel 134 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: you on yolks. Now, I've joined a yoga studio. It's 135 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: in Silver Lakes. It's not too far from me. It's 136 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: called Why seven and so it's candle it. So it's 137 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: in a black room. On the wall it just says 138 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: we flow hard. It's infrared sauna panels all around the space. 139 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 1: And then it's all to like cool music like today 140 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: it was like Snoop Dogg Labyrinth. We went to another 141 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 1: class that was all themed around Harry Styles, a lot 142 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: of fun, hour long. You sweat your brains out, but 143 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: it's awesome. I really really love it. I feel good, 144 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: I feel cleansed. I'm just loving it, loving it. So 145 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: we got the intro pack there. So the intro pack there. 146 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 1: If you're ever in La this is it's only in 147 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 1: the East Side. It used to be on Melrose, it's 148 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 1: not there anymore. It's just in Silver Lake. And there's 149 00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 1: some in New York too. I think there's quite a 150 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: few in New York. So if you're in New York, 151 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 1: boom do it. It's so good. So the intro pass 152 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 1: is reasonably expensive. It's three classes for fifty nine American dollars, 153 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 1: so like seventy five Bozzie. But they give you your 154 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: matte towel and like a special non slippy towel thing 155 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: because you sweat so much for your mate, all included 156 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: in those three classes. That was handy, and they've got 157 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: filtered water there. You feel your water bottle up like 158 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: it does, feel like you're getting an all inclusive kind 159 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 1: of experience. So you highly recommend I We've just finished 160 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 1: our intro pass and then I'm gonna I'm gonna join 161 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 1: Now I'm a fan. I'm drinking the kool aid. Okay. 162 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: Another cool place that I visited and it wasn't on 163 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: my visit list at all, but my mate Stella said 164 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 1: she loves cemeteries and can we visit the Hollywood Forever Cemetery, 165 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 1: And I said, of course, actually show movies there some nights, 166 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:59,239 Speaker 1: and it's quite iconic, and it was the most beautiful, 167 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 1: peaceful cemetery. I'd highly recommend just going for a walk 168 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 1: through if you're visiting La. There's peacocks everywhere, like literally 169 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 1: the cemetery's pet peacocks and it's beautiful. There was a 170 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 1: special like Judy Garland area as well, which was really nice, 171 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 1: and there's it's just it just feels very special. And 172 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: then it's backs onto Paramount lot like the studio lot, 173 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 1: and so you can be standing in the cemetery and 174 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 1: looking up and seeing that big like Paramount water iconic 175 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:34,440 Speaker 1: water tower thing, very curl, very lovely and very respectful 176 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: and peaceful and beautiful, like beautiful gardens, beautiful architecture. Yeah, 177 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: just really nice. You could even go have a walk around, 178 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 1: pay your respects, and then just sit and read. There's 179 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:53,319 Speaker 1: like really beautiful sitting nooks and whatnot as well. I 180 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 1: don't know if you need those trucks out there, but 181 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,959 Speaker 1: that's welcome to LA. Okay, what's next on my little 182 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:02,079 Speaker 1: list here? I feel like I'm powering through this? Okay. 183 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: I have also I had another food experience, another air 184 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 1: One food experience I got so usually I get their salads, 185 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 1: which I've told you heaps about before. This time, I 186 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 1: got their hot menu item and it was piece of 187 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:22,199 Speaker 1: wild salmon. I got some really yummy roast taties and 188 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:26,320 Speaker 1: then just it was just like greens like Brocolini spinach, 189 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 1: and it was just yeah, really really really yummy. That 190 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:31,559 Speaker 1: was just a little health another health thing I forgot 191 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 1: that I had. Now I tried another hell thing. So 192 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 1: you know. I've reviewed the book Lifespam by David Sinkleir. 193 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 1: He's Australian but lives in New York. As far as 194 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:46,719 Speaker 1: I'm aware, really cool guy. He's really into the biology 195 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: of aging and he talks a lot about there's certain 196 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,440 Speaker 1: supplements that you can take to kind of like help 197 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 1: counteract the aging process. He's quite profasting and things like that. Anyway, 198 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: he talks a lot about NAD and he takes a 199 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:04,679 Speaker 1: precursor MAD called M n M, which I've found here 200 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 1: in LA and I've told you about before on the diary. 201 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: I take it sublingually, so that means under your tongue, 202 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 1: and it's just like a little bit of liquid I 203 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,359 Speaker 1: take each day. And it's also got really great cofactors 204 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 1: in there, like resveratrol, couisitin methylation, things like activated bs 205 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: and whatnot. So it's really it's the product. It takes 206 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,199 Speaker 1: really good. It's quite expensive. It's about one hundred and 207 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: twenty US dollars, so you know that's going to be 208 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: one ady Aussie. Anyway, I was talking to a mate 209 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: about it and they said, you know, if you tried 210 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 1: the NAD drips, and I'm like, no, I've heard they're phenomenal. 211 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 1: So we booked in very expensive straight off the bat. 212 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: I want to say I got a half dose because 213 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 1: the price nearly knocked me over. So a full dose 214 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: in America is seven hundred and fifty mil. I don't 215 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: know you can start to get it in Australia, but 216 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 1: I think it sits around the five hundred MILLI in 217 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 1: Australia and it's in a basis saline. I'm pretty sure. 218 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 1: And so my mate got the seven fifty. I got 219 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 1: the three hundred mil because it costs me five seventy 220 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 1: five US, so eight hundred Ozzie. I think his was 221 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: like twelve hundred US, so it'd be close to two 222 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: thousand Australian. So you go in, you rock on up 223 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 1: to this beautiful, luxurious health space. It feels very bougie 224 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 1: and you've got to have a consultation with a doctor. 225 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:31,559 Speaker 1: It's just done over like a iPad and then they 226 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 1: take me into a room. But before that they go, hey, 227 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 1: no one told me this. Some people can react quite 228 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: strong to nad IV treatment. I go, what do you 229 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 1: mean and it's like, well, some people can get really sick. 230 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: And I was like, what do you mean. I'm already 231 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: nervous about needles, so I was already in a state 232 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 1: of slight anxiety. And they're like, well it can cause 233 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 1: nausea and diarrhea and I was like okay, and they're like, 234 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 1: but if you shot these five capsules of beef livor, 235 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 1: it helps to counteract it. And I was like, sign 236 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 1: me up. So I shot the five capsules. I didn't 237 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 1: know my mate hadn't but I did. And then because 238 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: they started on my mate first anyway, then I went 239 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 1: in and I'm freaking out because I've got quite deep 240 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 1: veins so they never pop up to the surface. And 241 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 1: when you see really like burly guys like say thor 242 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,319 Speaker 1: or Chris Hemsworth, and you can see their veins really easily. 243 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: Not me, it's just there. It's like a not easy. 244 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 1: So anyway, that said, I've done I've had to give 245 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 1: bloods for my green card and all kind of like 246 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 1: you do full medicals before America. Anyway, so I said, 247 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 1: I was really nervous. I was like, listen, I've had 248 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,319 Speaker 1: veins blow out before and I've had bad experiences. And 249 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 1: they're like, no, Worris, We're going to heat your arm up. 250 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 1: So they put my arm in this heat pack. Game changer. 251 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 1: By the way, anyone that gets nervous with needles in 252 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 1: Australia get a wheat pack or something and either ask 253 00:13:57,800 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 1: them to do it. They can. Sometimes they put hot 254 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:01,440 Speaker 1: water in glove and then you can put it there 255 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 1: to kind of like calm the veins down a bit 256 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: or bring them out. Whatever it does. I don't know 257 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 1: exactly the mechanics of it. Anyway, she was so lovely. 258 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 1: I was like, listen, I'm nervous, and I said, I'm 259 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,079 Speaker 1: just gonna look away. I look away. She puts it 260 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 1: in once and she was like, can't find it. Puts 261 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 1: it in again, can't find it. She goes, third time. 262 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: If we don't, we're gonna have to go somewhere else 263 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: in your body. And I was like, a bit scared 264 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: of doing it on the top of my hand because 265 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 1: although my veins are poppy, they're they're quite small, so 266 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 1: you could probably bruise right. And she did say. She 267 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 1: was like, listen, I can see that they are on 268 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 1: your hands, but they're small veins. We don't really want it. 269 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 1: We want to use a big vein in your like 270 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 1: you know that inside of elbow bit. Anyway, third time, lucky, 271 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 1: she goes, we're golden. I'm just gonna flush it and 272 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 1: then we're gonna start the treatment. I was like, good girl, Lola, 273 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: good girl. It's very proud of myself. Always start the treatment. 274 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: And my mate's not feeling too good, so getting waves 275 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 1: of nause nausea and not feeling phenomenal. I was soldiering along. 276 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,359 Speaker 1: No props. I got a little bit a metallic aftertaste, 277 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 1: but nothing bad. But remember I took the anti nausea stuff. 278 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: So my advice is, and remember my dose was half 279 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 1: of my mate's dose. So my advice would be, if 280 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 1: you're going to do it, because you can start to 281 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 1: find it in Australia, start do your first one on 282 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,120 Speaker 1: a lower dose and ask them to keep the drip 283 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 1: slower so you're not getting like flushed and it's getting overwhelming. 284 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: So it did take us a while, like we were 285 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 1: in there for four hours getting our drips done, but 286 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 1: you know, got the NAD drip. So before you go, 287 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: what on earth is NAD, I'm going to try and 288 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 1: say it, but it's nicotinamide a dieno night adenanine dye, 289 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 1: nucleoid tide, nicotina, nicotinamide, adenanine adena nine die nuclear Lloyd died. Okay, 290 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 1: here's the prose of it. It's known for longevity and 291 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: anti aging and cell room. That was what I was 292 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 1: signing up for. Mental clarity, really great for addiction. That's 293 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 1: what they're doing studies on it at the moment with 294 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: brain recovery as far as like function fogginess and all 295 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: of that and lung capacity as well. So you know, 296 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 1: I was just like, sign me up, I want to 297 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 1: give it a try, and it was. To be honestly, 298 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 1: it's something I definitely do again. I just because I 299 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 1: do have those deep veins. I'd probably just make sure 300 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 1: I've got a nurse that is super confident with trickier veins, 301 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 1: only because I've had my veins. Yeah, Like I said, 302 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: blowout and it's very uncomfortable when someone's got a needle 303 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 1: in your arm and it's fishing around for something and 304 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 1: you just know it is not a good sign. Whereas 305 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: this was really clean, crisp, no worries and she just 306 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 1: girls were golden, and I was like, sign me up. Wrapped, 307 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 1: So I wanted to let you know that I tried 308 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: this NAD drip. I would do it again. It's quite 309 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 1: dear though, so I would probably paste it out, but 310 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 1: I won't be able to get the sublingals supplement in Australia. 311 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,920 Speaker 1: You can't get it yet. I'll use it obviously while 312 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:11,680 Speaker 1: I'm in America, and then I'll probably buy reservera troll 313 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 1: and take that back to Australia with me because I 314 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 1: think you can get in Austrultu. You can definitely get 315 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 1: in Australia, it's just not as easy whereas I can 316 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,719 Speaker 1: walk down to my local lessons and there's like literally 317 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 1: twenty five different brands of it. See, I love all 318 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 1: things longevity, anti aging, biohacking. You know, that's part of 319 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: my jam. Another really cool thing that I did this 320 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 1: week that is also your movie review for the week 321 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 1: is I went to this incredible, like nineteen twenties style theater. 322 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 1: It's called the Lost Feelers Theater. It is on Vermont, Ah. 323 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 1: That just reminds you of another thing that I did. 324 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,640 Speaker 1: It's on Vermont, so it's on one of them. It's 325 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,640 Speaker 1: in what they call Lost Feelers Village. Really good half 326 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 1: priced ticket, So the tickets there are. It's an arthouse, 327 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: little small theater, probably a thirty theater, twelve dollars fifty. 328 00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 1: So if you go to like an AMC, which is 329 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:06,879 Speaker 1: American Movie Cinema Group, which is kind of like America's 330 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 1: Hoyts or Village or what's our other one, Greater Union, 331 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 1: I guess that's very nineties of me to say that 332 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 1: though you're paying like twenty three bucks for a movie ticket, 333 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:20,439 Speaker 1: usually twenty three to twenty five, so I was like, 334 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 1: oh boo yah, half price, and I saw this incredible 335 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 1: movie called Marcel the Shell with Shoes On. It's a 336 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,159 Speaker 1: stop motion so think Wallace and Grommet style. As far 337 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 1: as the way it's shot, it's not it's not like 338 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 1: watching a Pixar movie. And it's this little shell with 339 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 1: one eye and two little shoes and the messaging behind it, 340 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:45,199 Speaker 1: I think it's actually a story about the beauty of 341 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:50,120 Speaker 1: grief and moving through grief and learning and family and community. 342 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 1: And the voice the actor I think her name is 343 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 1: Jenny Slat that and an excess at SNL alumni so 344 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:02,360 Speaker 1: have quite very funny. So there is this like underlying 345 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 1: humor throughout it, and it's kind of like a mockumentary. 346 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:09,440 Speaker 1: But the messaging is so beautiful I bowled my eyes out. 347 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 1: I would highly, highly, highly highly recommend you see Marcel 348 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:15,880 Speaker 1: the Shell with Shoes On. They've got a really cute 349 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 1: instapage too, so like even if you just watched the trailer, 350 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 1: there so cute, so much fun. Ten out of ten 351 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:27,199 Speaker 1: in my books absolutely love it, and that reminds me 352 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 1: I went for a little Martin. The reason why I 353 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 1: remember this is because next to Los Felis Theater is 354 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 1: a place I've been to and told you about before 355 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 1: called Faghario, or I call it Faghario. I think it's Figaro. 356 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 1: I don't know, but it's a beautiful French bistro and 357 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 1: they have happy hour from four to eight, I think 358 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:51,959 Speaker 1: every day. Anyway, I went and had little martini with 359 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: my mate. We ordered so for I don't know how 360 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: long you've been listening to this pod, but I love 361 00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 1: a dry gin Martini with twistland and like Boss and 362 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 1: I back home in bar and have a little cocktail 363 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:09,200 Speaker 1: cart and I love it. Boss is and a grony man, 364 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:15,200 Speaker 1: and I am a martini lady. Anyway, aham. We ordered 365 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 1: a dry gin Martin twist of Lemmon, but it came 366 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 1: out dirty, so dirty means you've got the olive Brian 367 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 1: and a little olive in it. It was actually really nice. 368 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 1: And then we ordered a second and had a dry 369 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 1: gin Martine twist of lemon, and a friend of mine 370 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:35,200 Speaker 1: taught me a great saying that martinis are like breasts 371 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:40,399 Speaker 1: too is perfect anymore, it's a bit much. So I 372 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 1: was like, that's very very funny, and there's there's a 373 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:47,879 Speaker 1: theory that you can. I don't know if it's Martini 374 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 1: glasses or those old Gatsby style champagne glasses, but the 375 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:57,480 Speaker 1: cocktail glass was modeled on Mirie Antoinette's breast. I think 376 00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 1: I did not expect to be talking to you about boobies, 377 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 1: but he we are. So there you go. There's that's it. 378 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:06,879 Speaker 1: So yeah, put Figario on your list if you're going 379 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 1: to be east Side because four pm every day it's 380 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 1: happy hour. So Martini is like eight dollars, which is 381 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:16,879 Speaker 1: really nice and affordable, and the food there's great. You know. 382 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 1: I go there for a nisoir. It's really really nice 383 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:21,680 Speaker 1: and I always walk past and go. I'd be really 384 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:25,360 Speaker 1: nice to get like a French press black coffee. That's 385 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: like my favorite way to drink coffee. So I'm gonna 386 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,719 Speaker 1: have to organize a little catch up coffee date with 387 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 1: someone there because it's just so so beautiful. So that 388 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: is me. That is your update for the week. I 389 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:41,160 Speaker 1: hope you I hope you love it.
