Speaker 1: your own dreams. Big love from La, the City of Angels, Uloha.

9
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 1: Welcome to your Friday La Diary Pod. As always, I

10
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,360
Speaker 1: have a big list of things for you and to

11
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:44,880
Speaker 1: get through with you. I've just done a three day

12
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 1: juice cleanse, so I'm going to take you through juice

13
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 1: cleansing life in LA. And I'll tell you my favorite

14
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 1: Melbourne based Trews cleanse too, so that I'm pretty sure

15
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 1: I've got discount code with them, so that. Yeah, if

16
00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 1: you want to cleanse and this inspires you to cleanse,

17
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: you can. I know some people are anti yet, but

18
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 1: look for me, it just makes me feel good. That's

19
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:07,679
Speaker 1: why I like shoes cleansed. Anyway, I digress. We have

20
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 1: got a whopper of a list to get through. Of

21
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 1: the last seven days in the city of Dreams, Land

22
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 1: of Dreams, City of Angels. So I'm just gonna move

23
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: through my little listo and yeah, week four, Holy Mac,

24
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,400
Speaker 1: can you believe it? It's gone so so fast. Okay,

25
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: so I've had my second dose of fiser anti vaxes.

26
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 1: Just skip the next minute or so. So second dose

27
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 1: of fires are basically for anyone that has had their

28
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 1: first dose and thinking of their second dose, or you

29
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 1: know your second dose is coming up. They're twenty one

30
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:49,520
Speaker 1: days apart from one another second dose like minutely hurts

31
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 1: a tiny weeny bit more going in, Like there's a

32
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 1: tiny sting. The nurse warned me that it would burn

33
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 1: going in. It just stung for literally like one cat

34
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 1: and dog, two cat and dog done side effects. So

35
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:07,559
Speaker 1: everyone warned me those two fires are lowly, You're gonna

36
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 1: have all these different side effects. So I was like, okay,

37
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 1: prepared myself so on the way home from the vaccine

38
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,639
Speaker 1: because I got my vaccine done at the same place.

39
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:21,079
Speaker 1: I got the first dose in a clinic in Inglewood,

40
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 1: so that's about an hour away from where I live.

41
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 1: But I just wanted to go to the same place

42
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,919
Speaker 1: because it was a clinic and it just felt really

43
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 1: really safe and everyone was really lovely there with me.

44
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 1: So on the way back I wrote my friend Sewn

45
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 1: into coming with me for moral support, as he did

46
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 1: with Dose one. And on the way back we stopped

47
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:43,959
Speaker 1: past a right age. So a Rite eight is a

48
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 1: chemist or pharmacy here. Basically you've got CVS Rite Aid,

49
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,920
Speaker 1: and I think the other one's called Walgreens, the other big,

50
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: and there's another one that's right near my house. I

51
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,959
Speaker 1: don't know what it's called. It's a joint to albert

52
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: and supermarket pharmacies are joint to things as well. Sometimes

53
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: over here, like a target will often have a CBS

54
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 1: within the target. I digress. So on the way home,

55
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 1: I bought a ginormous bottle of water and advil. So

56
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 1: advil is America's neurofern or ibuprofen. And then I think

57
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:27,799
Speaker 1: they have something called tilin, something that is more like Panado. Anyway,

58
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 1: I just got told, get some advil, go home, rested off.

59
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 1: That night, I felt fine, So I had the vaccine

60
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: at five point four pm. I know that exactly because

61
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: I got my records emailed to me yesterday along with

62
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 1: apparently in the next seven days I'm going to get

63
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 1: an incentive. So I think they give you like a

64
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 1: fifty dollars gift card here to spend as like a

65
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:51,119
Speaker 1: congrats you got vaxed, and you also go in the draw.

66
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 1: I've got my paperwork here. Actually they give you when

67
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 1: you get vaxed here because you sit in that like

68
00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: fifteen minute resting area, and they give you like granola bars,

69
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: chocolate if you want it, Like there's jelly beans and

70
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 1: there's water, and I had two nurses check on me

71
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 1: in the recovery area. But you can also win season

72
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:17,919
Speaker 1: tickets to LA Dodgers here, LAFC so the Los Angeles

73
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 1: Football Club, and they're also doing Lakers giveaways and over

74
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 1: here uber and lyft. If you're getting vaccinated, it's free

75
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,919
Speaker 1: there and back. How cool anyway, side effects, I felt

76
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 1: nothing that night. I took an advil because I was like,

77
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:33,840
Speaker 1: I just want to be able to sleep really well.

78
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:39,040
Speaker 1: I slept really well that night. The next day, I

79
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: was like, oh, I just a really dead arm, just

80
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 1: like someone's punched you in the arm. I had the

81
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 1: same feeling with dose one, and then that night I

82
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 1: found it really hard to sleep. That said, it was

83
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 1: also when I posted on Instagram about getting the vaccine

84
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:56,279
Speaker 1: and I got smashed by anti vaxes. So I think

85
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: I was a bit anxious, if I'm really honest with you,

86
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 1: Like someone told me I'd injected an aborted child into

87
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 1: my body and that you know, I was poisoning myself.

88
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 1: And yeah, anyway, pretty hardcore. And I didn't I say

89
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 1: this to Matt. I didn't realize, like I'm a pretty

90
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 1: independent person, but like being trolled or not trolled, but

91
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 1: like getting a lot of negative and there was some

92
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:23,719
Speaker 1: lovely positive as well, and then kind of like go

93
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: on a bed and you're kind of on your own

94
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 1: to deal with that was like a little bit scary.

95
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,719
Speaker 1: So that anyway, I didn't sleep well that the night

96
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 1: after getting it, and I would attribute that to stress

97
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,839
Speaker 1: and anxiety. But I did wake up the next day

98
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,719
Speaker 1: with a ripsnorter of a headache and it lasted the

99
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,799
Speaker 1: whole day. So I took another advil that day and

100
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: that was kind of it. That was my side effect,

101
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,279
Speaker 1: and then it was gone. So I think I'm four

102
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:58,360
Speaker 1: or five days past it now. I got it Thursday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday. Yeah,

103
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 1: I'm six days past it now. Yeah, I just wanted

104
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 1: to share with you all of my side like potential

105
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 1: side effects and whatnot. That was what I experienced. Here.

106
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 1: You get given like a little card and it's like

107
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:16,040
Speaker 1: your vaccine ID. You get emailed confirmation of it as well.

108
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 1: So I'm really keen to add that to my Medicare

109
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 1: history when I so that when I come back to

110
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:26,720
Speaker 1: Australia it's all kind of like linked together. I also

111
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 1: filled up the car with petrol here, so in America

112
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,360
Speaker 1: they call it gas. I've done. I've changed topics, by

113
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:36,039
Speaker 1: the way. One thing about my brain is like it's

114
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:40,359
Speaker 1: like ping ping, ping ping. Filled up the car with

115
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,919
Speaker 1: petrol gas the first time on my own. So you

116
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: walk in a new prepay if you've got an Australian

117
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: credit card like I do. You walk in new prepay

118
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:55,039
Speaker 1: and then you go, hey, can I put thirty dollars?

119
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 1: And they're like no sweat. And then if you don't

120
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 1: use the full thirty dollars like I didn't, it doesn't

121
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 1: take that. You very interesting, very different to Australia. I've

122
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 1: got my juice cleansed notes here, but I might get

123
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 1: through the list first. I went to go get them

124
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: Tiger again. I went there for a hot Americano and

125
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 1: then I went there again and I tried an oat

126
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 1: lata oh no none, last a a oat Chai and

127
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 1: it was really really yummy, really good coffee. Probably one

128
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,119
Speaker 1: of my favorite coffee is close to me. That said,

129
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 1: I went back to Strings of Life Today Soul after

130
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 1: interviewing Grant on the pod which will come out Monday.

131
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 1: So he's the owner, co owner, co founder of EP

132
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 1: and LP of the Melrose Theater, Rooftop Theater and Strings

133
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 1: of Life. So straight after I was like, I've got

134
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 1: to go get my Strings of Life coffee so good

135
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 1: and in America because it is so hot it's summer here,

136
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 1: like I think it's predicted to be thirty seven degrees tomorrow,

137
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 1: so yeah, you drink everything. I So I'm like my

138
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 1: order in Australia, I'd always get along black, but here

139
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 1: my order is an iced americanal so basically an ice

140
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 1: long black. Basically sometimes I love a hot long black,

141
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 1: but I've figured out that when I'm here, like when

142
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 1: you're on the go and it's so hot, just an

143
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 1: iceed Americana was so good because you you know, you

144
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 1: don't have the sugar or the milks and it's just

145
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 1: like quite a clean but you get your pepp of energy.

146
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:27,320
Speaker 1: So I think I looked it up before this pot.

147
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 1: I think an Ice Americana was two espresso shots topped

148
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 1: with water and heaps of ice. So young and super clean,

149
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 1: and if you're into intermittent fasting like me, it ticks

150
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 1: all the boxes. So I planned to go to the

151
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 1: movies on the weekend, just gone with my friend Cammi,

152
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 1: and we were going to see Kruala, the new Emma

153
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:53,760
Speaker 1: Stone movie. THEO at AMC. I think that stands for

154
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: so here AMC is like Hoyts or village back Home.

155
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 1: I'm guessing at sands for like American AMC, American movie cinema,

156
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:10,439
Speaker 1: American movie cinema. I don't know American movie cinema. If

157
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:14,079
Speaker 1: you're wondering why my accent sounds so shit. Anyway, the

158
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:18,680
Speaker 1: closest one was actually at Universal Studios, and at the

159
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 1: stage I wasn't fully vaccinate. I was fully vaccinated, but

160
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 1: only by a couple of days. So to go to

161
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:30,199
Speaker 1: Universal you need to be fourteen days post your second vaccine,

162
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,199
Speaker 1: so I wasn't eligible to go. But the movie cinema

163
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 1: is just outside Universal Studios, like it's on the same location,

164
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:40,560
Speaker 1: but you don't enter Universal at all, if that makes

165
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 1: sense Anyway, it took us ages to find it, couldn't

166
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:47,320
Speaker 1: find it, and so we missed the movie. But we

167
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: ended up on this like outdoor section of Universal Studios

168
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 1: where you're not entering Universal Studios, so it's like an

169
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:57,079
Speaker 1: outdoor mall. It was really cool, and I think they've

170
00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 1: made this because people stay can stay Universal Studios a

171
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 1: bit like Disneyland. So there was like a Sapphora, there

172
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 1: were all these different food places. There was all the

173
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 1: merch shops, and I went straight to the Harry Potter

174
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 1: section because Boss is a massive Harry Potter fan. Didn't

175
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 1: get him anything though, because I'm waiting until I actually

176
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: go back to Universal Studios. So we're going to go

177
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 1: back when I've had two weeks post my second dose

178
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 1: of the vaccine, so a couple of weeks, and I

179
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:30,840
Speaker 1: want to do a full blown Universal Studio review for

180
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 1: you on that Friday ap because who doesn't love Universal Studio.

181
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 1: I'm so excited to do the backlot to her because

182
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,440
Speaker 1: when I used to come over here every summer, every

183
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 1: American summer, Australian winter, I'd go on this show that

184
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,960
Speaker 1: was shot on the Universal lot called Home and Family.

185
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 1: And when I'd go on Home and Family, it's like

186
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 1: a it's kind of like the Morning Show in Australia

187
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 1: or Circle if you remember the Circle, Like it's that

188
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 1: eleven am timeslot and it goes for I think goes

189
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 1: more than two hours. I think it's three hours. And

190
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,320
Speaker 1: I used to go on and cook food and talk

191
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:10,040
Speaker 1: about help. But the cool thing about this show is

192
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,240
Speaker 1: it was filmed on the Universal Studio a lot, so

193
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 1: you'd literally be going to your trailer. Yes, I have

194
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 1: my own trailer. Can you believe it never happened in

195
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 1: my life other than this, And you'd be like passing

196
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 1: all the western sets and they're like, oh, that's Wisteria

197
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 1: Lane up there. Sorry, They're like sorry, if you hear

198
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,839
Speaker 1: a bit of a sound, the earthqueak soundstage is going

199
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: off like it was so Caolt was very like Hollywood

200
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 1: dream right now. So that was so much fun and

201
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,679
Speaker 1: so exciting and I love, love, love doing it. Unfortunately,

202
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,839
Speaker 1: I think that show's just wrapped up because otherwise, now

203
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,559
Speaker 1: that I'm vaccinated, that would have been the first place

204
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 1: I would have hit up to hopefully do some tally

205
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,920
Speaker 1: So yeah, that shows no more but I loved it,

206
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 1: and they after I do a food second with them,

207
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 1: they keep me micd up for the entire show and

208
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,199
Speaker 1: then you'd kind of like co host it, like you'd

209
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 1: pitch in on ideas and I remember ready to Finance

210
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:12,080
Speaker 1: section afterwards, and then I did a craft section and

211
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 1: so much fine. So that's why I'm really excited to

212
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 1: go to your most universal studio and experience the other

213
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 1: side of it. So I really want to do the

214
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: back lot tour, which is where Home and Family was shot.

215
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 1: And then also as part of that, I think you

216
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 1: get to do a fast and the Furious to a

217
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 1: thing Jurassic Park I want to do. After that, of

218
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 1: course I have to go to Harry Potter World. And

219
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 1: apparently the ride at Harry Potter World is insane. What

220
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 1: else is meant to be great? There's a haunted house.

221
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,319
Speaker 1: A bit nervous about haunted houses because actors come out

222
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,680
Speaker 1: and grab you and stuff. That makes me a bit nervous.

223
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 1: There are a few other I feel like rise, but

224
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 1: I want to make a full day of it, like

225
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 1: get there the second opens, enjoy every second of it. Right, Oh, oh,

226
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:08,680
Speaker 1: I had my first Amber alert. So if you're like, what,

227
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 1: I digress a new topic by the way, so I

228
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 1: will report back when I go to Universal Studios. Okay,

229
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 1: Amberlet So I lived to wake up. I'm scrolling the

230
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 1: gram as one does when they wake up at like

231
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 1: seven am, and my phone starts like setting an alarm off,

232
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 1: but not like the like the one that you wake

233
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 1: up to. It was like, ah, that kind of an alarm, right,

234
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:33,840
Speaker 1: And I was like, oh my god, what's happening with

235
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:38,160
Speaker 1: my phone? And it's flashing Amber Alert, Amber Alert, Amber Alert,

236
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,840
Speaker 1: and it says like a car's number plate, a black

237
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,840
Speaker 1: SUV chev Chevro Chevro. I don't know that brand, but

238
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 1: an a big American brand of car. And I was like,

239
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 1: what the hell, what's going on? And I was like, oh,

240
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 1: like and you always hear helicopters, like you'll hear helicopters

241
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 1: circling every single day, That's just what goes on here.

242
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 1: And yes, helicopter's circling means we're looking for a baddie generally. Anyway,

243
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 1: I thought nothing off it. The alert went away, and

244
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,079
Speaker 1: I was hiking like two hours later and it went

245
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 1: off again, and I was on the phone to my

246
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 1: friend who lives here, and I was like, what is

247
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 1: an Amber alert? And he's like, oh, it's means they're

248
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 1: looking for someone and it's often involved. It often involves

249
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 1: child child abduction and I was like what. So then

250
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 1: like as I'm hiking, I was like treating every person

251
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 1: I saw, I was like, do you have that black SUV?

252
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 1: Do you? Like in my head of course, but yeah,

253
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 1: the Amber alerts, I reckon. I got four that day,

254
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 1: So apparently that's what they do. Yeah, if a child's

255
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 1: being abducted or something along those lines. Full on. But

256
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 1: you know, we're in a I'm in a very very

257
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 1: big city where the population of California is bigger than

258
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 1: the population of all of Australia. So you know, with

259
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 1: that it's going to come all these amazing opportunities. But

260
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,920
Speaker 1: also like you know, there are more people, there are

261
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 1: more good people, and there are more baddies, I think.

262
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 1: So I've had a big chat to Matt, like I

263
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 1: feel like here you've got to be pretty assertive, pretty

264
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 1: straight down the line, pretty clear, pretty direct, and Americans

265
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,720
Speaker 1: are quite specific, which I really like. So yeah, your

266
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 1: energy shifts a little bit here, like even when you're

267
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 1: walking down the street. Energy shifts. I picked up a

268
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 1: new rental car yesterday. I put this on my insert stories.

269
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 1: Picked up a rental car. I chose to walk there.

270
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 1: It was like an hour and forty minutes away, which is,

271
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 1: you know, meant to real. No one really walks in LA.

272
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 1: But I was like stuff, but like, I'm not gonna

273
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 1: hike today. I'm gonna I'm not gonna run, so I

274
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 1: may as well walk walk there. I can see why

275
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 1: people don't exercise, like don't drop like everyone drives in

276
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 1: LA because it's so hot and so you're sweating within

277
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 1: like five minutes of your walk. Right. Anyway, got there,

278
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 1: picked the car up, and like quickly, I just communit

279
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,360
Speaker 1: keys and I pretty much drive off the lot so

280
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:05,080
Speaker 1: that works. I'd booked it through someone on Facebook basically.

281
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 1: And I get home and I'm like, okay, getting used

282
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,120
Speaker 1: to this new car because I've been driving a feat

283
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 1: before this via Turo that app I was telling you

284
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 1: about last week. And I look in the back, I'm

285
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 1: part of like, I've got a nice park, sort of

286
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 1: don't even think about the cartal tomorrow. And I'm still

287
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 1: kind of cutting my teeth with driving here. Like I

288
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 1: always say to myself when I get in state of

289
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 1: the right, state of the right, and I'm not confident

290
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 1: on freeways yet, but I'm going to just force myself

291
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 1: to do more freeway driving by visiting Maids in Santa

292
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:40,320
Speaker 1: Monica and Venice and stuff like that. Anyway, I digress.

293
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,040
Speaker 1: I look in the back of the car and I'm like, oh,

294
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: was that a chip packet? And I touch it and

295
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 1: it's like a half eaten bag of like Dorrito's an American,

296
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 1: like a healthy version of Dorrito's. And then I looked

297
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 1: to my right and in the like side glove box,

298
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:01,640
Speaker 1: not glove box, but you know the side bit where

299
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 1: you chuck your sonnies and stuff a broken sesame bar

300
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 1: and a friggin' knife. And I was like, wow, welcome

301
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:15,880
Speaker 1: to La. Anyway, got myself a car, gets me from

302
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 1: A to B, gets me in a meetings, gets me

303
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 1: in a podcasts happy days. So there you go. Uh oh,

304
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 1: Trader Joe's. So Trader Joe's is becoming my go to.

305
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 1: It's about a third of the price of a Whole

306
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:32,440
Speaker 1: Foods or an Era one, but so I go there

307
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:37,119
Speaker 1: for everything like everyday staff Eggs, you know, all my

308
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:41,920
Speaker 1: fruit and veg coffee because I'm rationing my Lola coffees

309
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,880
Speaker 1: right now. So I yeah, So I go to Trade

310
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 1: Joe's for all my incidental like every day whatever you

311
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 1: need kind of stuff, and it's really great value. You

312
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 1: can get like a punnet of organic blueberries, and their

313
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:55,879
Speaker 1: punnets are bigger than ours. They're about three times a

314
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: size of ours and it's like two ninety nine, so

315
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,399
Speaker 1: it's great value. Anyway, I've been trying some of the

316
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 1: Traded Joe's branded stuff because like there's a cult follow

317
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:07,919
Speaker 1: and it's probably more than a cult following, but like

318
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 1: there are Instagram pages dedicated to just like things that

319
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 1: people find at Traded Joe's. So I've tried some Traded

320
00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:20,119
Speaker 1: Joe's branded things. This is all before the juice detox.

321
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 1: Of course, I tried the Trader Joe's dark chocolate sunflower

322
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,360
Speaker 1: seed buttercups, so instead of a peanut butter cup, it's

323
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 1: got like crushed some flower seeds inside. Really nice. But

324
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 1: like if I had to pick a peanut butter cup,

325
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:39,840
Speaker 1: obviously I'm going to pick the Justin's that really brand

326
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 1: I was telling you about that do the white peanut

327
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,399
Speaker 1: buttercups that are I don't know if they're organic, but

328
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 1: they're like the natural version of a peanut butter cup.

329
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 1: That said, they've got more sugar than races, I'm pretty

330
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,640
Speaker 1: sure or they're kind of on pa, So like, if

331
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:55,439
Speaker 1: you really want a peanut butter cup, you may as

332
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:57,879
Speaker 1: well just get a Racis one of which I have

333
00:18:57,960 --> 00:18:59,640
Speaker 1: had one of them as well. Before my juice length,

334
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:04,399
Speaker 1: I also tried this really nice Trader Joe's brand. So

335
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 1: Trader Joe's branded stuff is great. So I tried this

336
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 1: dark chocolate with almonds, really yummy, and I think I

337
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 1: had it like before the Juth cleans. I did two

338
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 1: days of kind of like easing in, and so that

339
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 1: was one of the days where I had a little

340
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 1: bit of dark chocolate and some berries is my sweet

341
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 1: thing that day to kind of like help me ease in.

342
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 1: And it was really good. So that was Traded Joe's branded.

343
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,280
Speaker 1: It was a dark chocolate with kind of like hunks

344
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:35,399
Speaker 1: of almond throughout it. Oh more food. So when I

345
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,399
Speaker 1: said I went to write aid that when I got vaccinated,

346
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 1: I got advil, I got water. But I also tried

347
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:47,880
Speaker 1: which I'd really wanted to try I gotta they sell there,

348
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:51,680
Speaker 1: so different pharmacies carry different things, so it's like a

349
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:53,719
Speaker 1: lucky dip and it's so much fun to explore. If

350
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:55,640
Speaker 1: you've got the time, you could spend like an hour

351
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,399
Speaker 1: or so. They're just like cruising the aisles and like

352
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:02,359
Speaker 1: discovering new things. But they and the same with like

353
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 1: snacks and protein bars and stuff like that. But they

354
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 1: had single serve Reese's buttercups with the Reese's pieces throughout them,

355
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 1: so almost like little imagine Eminem's throughout the peanut buttercup.

356
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 1: Bit very good. Never had them before I think I

357
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,879
Speaker 1: did that. That was my last little hurrah, you know,

358
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 1: I said I was trying to be healthy. In the

359
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:31,560
Speaker 1: lead up to doing a juice cleans, I still had

360
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,880
Speaker 1: a Reese's buttercup the day before. I also went back

361
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:38,360
Speaker 1: to Air one and kind of got like a bit

362
00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:40,160
Speaker 1: of stuff to prep me because I didn't know how

363
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 1: I would feel post VACS. So I got that vegan

364
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:48,679
Speaker 1: taco salad with a meat Minci meats made out of walnuts,

365
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:52,639
Speaker 1: and it's oh another level. I got heaps of juices.

366
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:55,200
Speaker 1: I got an immune shot. But I'll talk about all

367
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 1: that when I do the juice when I talk about

368
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:02,000
Speaker 1: the Juice Clans, Yes, away Reese's Buttercup. I also got

369
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 1: this this like egg lip barm that I can only

370
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,679
Speaker 1: find in America. It's like three dollars in any chemists

371
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,199
Speaker 1: and it's in the shape of an egg and you

372
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 1: twist the top off and it's like, oh, anyway, it's

373
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 1: really good. It's like three dollars or two ninety nine

374
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:19,160
Speaker 1: or something like that. And I got the strawberry sawbet flavor.

375
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,199
Speaker 1: Really yummy. If anyone knows what I'm talking about, these

376
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:26,639
Speaker 1: little egg lip barms, they're really really good. Oh Okay,

377
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:31,200
Speaker 1: I watched something amazing on Netflix. I posted about it.

378
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:34,360
Speaker 1: The audience is fifty to fifty split. But Bo Burnham

379
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,879
Speaker 1: he I discovered him when I saw Promising Young Woman

380
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,920
Speaker 1: and he was like the leading guy in that movie

381
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:47,479
Speaker 1: with Kerry Mulligan. So good, incredible movie, incredible Soundtrackway. He

382
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:51,320
Speaker 1: bought a Netflix special out called Inside and he shot

383
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:55,639
Speaker 1: it in quarantine in la over the course of a

384
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,719
Speaker 1: year and being kind of like essentially locked down, and

385
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,879
Speaker 1: it is so on point, it is so funny. It

386
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 1: is so confronting as well really cool. So he's a comedian,

387
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,680
Speaker 1: but he sings a lot of his bits as well.

388
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:13,440
Speaker 1: Really cool, I hope. Yeah, just check it out. It's

389
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,800
Speaker 1: on Netflix. You can totally watch in Australia as well,

390
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 1: but it's called bo Burnham inside. Oh this bit's exciting.

391
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,880
Speaker 1: So the day after the vaccine, I had to drop

392
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 1: my little Turo higher car back. So as great as

393
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:33,000
Speaker 1: Turo is, it's quite dear compared to renting a car

394
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 1: long lease, right, So I was like, just I knew

395
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 1: I'd have be laying low for a few days because

396
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,560
Speaker 1: of the vaccine. I thought perfect day to drop the

397
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:44,160
Speaker 1: car back. So I delivered the car to Hollywood, which

398
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 1: is literally like a seven minute drive, but I'm not joking.

399
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:51,840
Speaker 1: It was over an hour and a half walk back home.

400
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,959
Speaker 1: But I thought, oh, well, like walk, keep your body moving,

401
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 1: move your body around so that you can detoxify and

402
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 1: kind of like work with the vaccine. So I thought, well,

403
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 1: I'm in Hollywood. I'm going to do the Hollywood Walk

404
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,280
Speaker 1: of Fame from the start to the end. On one side,

405
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:11,359
Speaker 1: I was like, great, returned the car walk down to

406
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,280
Speaker 1: Hollywood Boulevard and I'm walking along. You know when you

407
00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 1: see Hollywood Walk of Fame, all the stars and I

408
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,879
Speaker 1: just filmed some of my favorites, like Ryan Murphy, who's

409
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 1: the creative of American horror story Assashin assassination of Gianni Bissaci, Glee, Hollywood,

410
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 1: that amazing show. So I filmed Ryan Murphy and I

411
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 1: kept walking along, walking along, and then I saw Matthew

412
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:37,439
Speaker 1: mcconniey filmed his and then I put up on my

413
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,080
Speaker 1: story right and I just put like found a little

414
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 1: gift of him and was like spotted a legend or something.

415
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,080
Speaker 1: No joke. He saw my story, Matthew mcconne he saw

416
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:52,359
Speaker 1: my story, I was like day made. So yeah, Matthew

417
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:55,080
Speaker 1: mcconniey saw my story, just saying and a lot of

418
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,680
Speaker 1: people wrote me and told me how amazing his book

419
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:00,919
Speaker 1: Green Lights is. I agree. I have the book. My

420
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:02,920
Speaker 1: brother wrote to me and was like, honestly, listen to

421
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 1: it on an audio book, he said, because his accent

422
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 1: is that Southern droll and he obviously like narrates it

423
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:18,360
Speaker 1: so wonderfully. It's like, oh, amaze. Anyway, Matthew mcconniey saw

424
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:24,479
Speaker 1: my story wrapped. Okay. Oh, I had a meeting at

425
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 1: I tried to have it at BONDI Harvest now Bondi Harvest,

426
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:32,479
Speaker 1: created by Guy Turland, who was actually this Monday Just

427
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:35,800
Speaker 1: gone'es episode, so if you haven't listened to it, he's

428
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:39,200
Speaker 1: so inspiring. He's such a legend straight down the line,

429
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:44,200
Speaker 1: very very humble, very very successful. So he's the Monday

430
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 1: episode Just Gone. But I had a meeting with my

431
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:50,480
Speaker 1: podcast agent here in La. It was my first real

432
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:56,600
Speaker 1: life meeting and we're both vaccinated or g. Anyway, there's

433
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 1: in when you Google map at two locations come up

434
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:03,440
Speaker 1: for Bondi Harvest, and I feel like I might have

435
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 1: mentioned I probably mentioned this, but what I wanted to

436
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 1: mention is Americans don't say Bondi. They say Bondy. Oh hey,

437
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:20,120
Speaker 1: I'm at Bandy. I'm at Bandy horvest Bandy. It's Bondi.

438
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 1: But I can see how they would think it's Bondie

439
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:29,359
Speaker 1: because of the spelling. Right. Anyway, there you go, Americans

440
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:34,480
Speaker 1: call it Bandy, not Bondi. I'm pretty sure I touched

441
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 1: on that last episode, so I apologies for iver go

442
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 1: for mentioning that one again, but I think it's so funny.

443
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,920
Speaker 1: And someone brought up with me again yesterday. All right,

444
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 1: I went to my first ninety nine cent shop, so

445
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:50,120
Speaker 1: literally everything's pretty much ninety nine cents. I basically got

446
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:54,320
Speaker 1: cleaning products, few hair clips and that's it. But like

447
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 1: if you needed stuff cheap, like I spent six bucks

448
00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 1: and I got like dish washing retergent spray and wipe

449
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:09,679
Speaker 1: bin bat like bin liners, bin bags like sponges, and

450
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,600
Speaker 1: then like a ten pack of hairclips because I was

451
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 1: running out of hairclips and they're really expensive at pharmacies,

452
00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 1: like ten bucks, and I got them for ninety nine cents.

453
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:20,400
Speaker 1: So yeah, I went to the ninety nine cent store.

454
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,400
Speaker 1: Although I feel like if you had a themed party, right,

455
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,879
Speaker 1: you would just go ham At a ninety nine cent store,

456
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,640
Speaker 1: there was so much Fourth of July stuff, like real

457
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,399
Speaker 1: Americana themed. I was like, how can I justify? But

458
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:34,199
Speaker 1: like what am I going to do this? Like what

459
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 1: am I gonna wear this for? But it was a

460
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:41,439
Speaker 1: lot of fun. Saw my first coyote. All right, So

461
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 1: coyote is like it looks like a wolf, but like

462
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 1: a bit foxy looking long snout, so not meaty like

463
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 1: a wolf, more stealth and quite lean, almost hyena vibes.

464
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 1: So if you bear wrote to me, they're like, oh,

465
00:26:55,920 --> 00:27:01,200
Speaker 1: beautiful wolf. Pretty sure coyotes aren't Cooper loved here from

466
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 1: what I can gather. I was talking to my friend

467
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,640
Speaker 1: Jackie and she said, oh no, no, they'll like rip

468
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 1: your puppy off. If you're walking down the street, they

469
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,400
Speaker 1: will run up to you and they will like rip

470
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:16,359
Speaker 1: the puppy lead and all away and goners. So they'll

471
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:20,280
Speaker 1: eat cats, puppies. They don't go near It's very rare.

472
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 1: I googled to double check, but it's very rare that

473
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:25,359
Speaker 1: a coyote will attack a human, but one hundred percent

474
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 1: will go for an animal. And it was literally just

475
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,479
Speaker 1: out in the front of my window. So I just

476
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,440
Speaker 1: looked down and there was this big coyote. They're about

477
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 1: the size of a wolfbit slender down below the window

478
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:39,320
Speaker 1: and I really wanted to film it for you and

479
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:41,399
Speaker 1: for stories, but I was face humming boss and I

480
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,920
Speaker 1: was like quick, and the HP he was quick, he

481
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,639
Speaker 1: like left within a few seconds. I went to my

482
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 1: first bed, bath and beyond, which is just like a

483
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: what are those shops called in Australia home like that

484
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,640
Speaker 1: because I was cleaning the French press coffee maker here

485
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:02,639
Speaker 1: and I I was cleaning it and knocked it and

486
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,360
Speaker 1: it broke so I had to buy a new one,

487
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:07,679
Speaker 1: and I went to bed Bathom Beyond to do that.

488
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:09,440
Speaker 1: But it was good because it was an era of

489
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 1: different Trader Joe's, so a bit like what I was

490
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 1: saying with the pharmacies, Different Trader Joe's have like hero

491
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:20,000
Speaker 1: different things, so it's always such an adventure. I went

492
00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 1: to a really big target as well on sunset again.

493
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 1: I was looking for coffee press presses. I think I

494
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 1: walked out with a candle and some protein bars classic LB,

495
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 1: a good protein bar flavor. Here is cobbler, and that's like,

496
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:39,479
Speaker 1: what is blueberry cobbler? And I'm like, it's kind of

497
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 1: like a blueberry pie with like a crusty on top,

498
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 1: a bit like a crumbly crust on top. But yeah,

499
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:50,840
Speaker 1: so cobblers are a very American thing. And speaking of

500
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 1: I did have one other American treat. I got it

501
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 1: after the VACS. I bought it at Era one that

502
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:02,719
Speaker 1: day along with my Mexic salad. And I thought, if

503
00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 1: I'm feeling a bit shit like, I'm probably gonna want

504
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 1: something that's going to make me feel great. So I

505
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 1: was like, I was something really Americana. I've already had

506
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 1: like three different pumpkin pies and a pumpkin loaf since

507
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 1: I've been here. So I tried a pecan pie. Oh lordy, yes,

508
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 1: so good. So it's got like caramelized peak toffeed pecans

509
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 1: on top. I didn't buy a whole pie by the way,

510
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,440
Speaker 1: you buy it by the slice, just just prefacing that,

511
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 1: so it's like a single serve. And then the I

512
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,440
Speaker 1: don't know what the middle bit is, but it is

513
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:40,200
Speaker 1: almost like custody caramel. Oh so good. And then you've

514
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:42,400
Speaker 1: got the pastry and it's all organic because it's from

515
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 1: it's from air one, so it's like you feel less guilty.

516
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 1: But it was so good. So that was my last

517
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 1: little hurrah before the juice cleans. So I did juice

518
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:57,480
Speaker 1: cleans for three days. I have saved all the labels

519
00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:01,880
Speaker 1: of the juices, so I just want to first of all,

520
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 1: preface how I did this juice cleans. I kind of

521
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,720
Speaker 1: did a hybrid Lola juice cleans. So basically I intermitt

522
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 1: and fast in the morning on black coffee, So Lola

523
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 1: coffee usually for my first one, and then I'm trying

524
00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:16,600
Speaker 1: to ration Lola coffee. I'll do like a black French press.

525
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 1: So two coffees a day for me always, and then

526
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 1: what I'll do is I'll have like as many as

527
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 1: I can green juices throughout the day or immune shots,

528
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 1: and I'll read all the ingredients too, and then at

529
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:31,280
Speaker 1: night I usually actually eat something, so I'll make a

530
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 1: ginormous salad or I'll bake some vegetables, but I'll go

531
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,600
Speaker 1: really really clean and it just resets me because as

532
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:44,360
Speaker 1: you can hear, I've been eating my way around LA,

533
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:49,040
Speaker 1: and I knew, like it's been so much fun, but

534
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 1: I just knew I was starting to feel a little

535
00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 1: bit like my sleep wasn't great, and I just wanted

536
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:57,920
Speaker 1: to feel really vital again. And so yeah, that's why

537
00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:02,040
Speaker 1: I wanted to do it. So yeah, I'll take you through.

538
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:05,760
Speaker 1: I did so long black. I feel like I'm gonna sneeze,

539
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 1: by the way, That's why I'm taking little pauses. It's

540
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:13,800
Speaker 1: getting really hot in La. Like I'm sitting here talking

541
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:19,160
Speaker 1: to you. One second, I see beg your pardon. I

542
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 1: do that thing where I kind of hold it half

543
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,920
Speaker 1: in I'm just a couple of them telling you this.

544
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 1: I'm taking my top off because I'm sweating bullets and

545
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:32,160
Speaker 1: you can't see me. So it doesn't matter. I'm in

546
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:36,080
Speaker 1: exercise gear anyway, it doesn't matter. It gets really really

547
00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 1: hot here, and I've got a fan, but I don't

548
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:42,160
Speaker 1: want to put it on while Sorry, my T shirt

549
00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:46,959
Speaker 1: is now caught on the zoom recorder. Oh one, lawa,

550
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:53,200
Speaker 1: I'm getting it doubly caught. Song excuses. Oh no, it's

551
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:59,160
Speaker 1: still caught. I'm just going to face that later. Yes,

552
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 1: I don't want to put any or anything like that.

553
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 1: Oh my doors are shut, my windows are shut, and

554
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:06,120
Speaker 1: I'm just like I'm in a sweatbox. It gets so

555
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,800
Speaker 1: hot next days, like twenty two degrees at night, so

556
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 1: like it doesn't cool at night. So I've been I've

557
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:17,120
Speaker 1: got a fan in the bedroom and everything. Now. Juice

558
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 1: cleans black coffee, so I still keep coffee. And I

559
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:22,240
Speaker 1: know that's probably a cheat for a lot of people.

560
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,680
Speaker 1: I just love it because obviously like mental energy, and

561
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:28,040
Speaker 1: I was still doing a little bit of exercise light

562
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:32,160
Speaker 1: like I was just walking and jogging. Many juice, as

563
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 1: many greens as I can get in the day, So

564
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 1: I've collected all the green juices I tried to share

565
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:42,680
Speaker 1: with you. And I also bought a few immune shots,

566
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:45,560
Speaker 1: so I got my immune shots from either Creation or

567
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:47,920
Speaker 1: Air one, and this is the one from Air one.

568
00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 1: So it's got carrot, lemon, ginger, and garlic. It's really good.

569
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:54,680
Speaker 1: It's just like it gives you a bit of a

570
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 1: pizazz as well, and it's just like in a little shot,

571
00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,800
Speaker 1: so it's like fifty nine meals. You can literally have

572
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:02,880
Speaker 1: it in like three SIPs, which is good. So I

573
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 1: do my immune shot usually late morning with a great

574
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:08,479
Speaker 1: and then just have a green juice straight after. So

575
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:11,480
Speaker 1: one cool juice I found I had a couple of

576
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:15,400
Speaker 1: these is called fifty Shades of Green Gain. It's from

577
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:19,560
Speaker 1: Creation and it's literally I've talked about it on other

578
00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:22,880
Speaker 1: La episodes, but it's got like if I listed everything

579
00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 1: for you to be like fifty things, but I'll just

580
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,840
Speaker 1: give you a few so that you can be like wow. Cucumber, kale,

581
00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 1: mixed greens, Japanese mustard, greens, a regular celery, parsley, green

582
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:41,600
Speaker 1: bell pepper, green chili, dandelion, jilipino al felfa, chlorophyll spilling.

583
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 1: That's probably about a quarter that I just listed, So

584
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,320
Speaker 1: that's a really good one. You're just like drinking a salad,

585
00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:51,160
Speaker 1: which is cool. The one that I usually get all

586
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:53,400
Speaker 1: the time from AIR one is called Just Greens with

587
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:57,520
Speaker 1: lemon and ginger, so organic celery, organic lemon, organic cucumber,

588
00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 1: organic ginger, organic kale, or ganing dandelion, organic parsley. There's

589
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,960
Speaker 1: another health food store near me called Lassons. I've told

590
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:10,480
Speaker 1: you about Lassons in past steps. So this one is

591
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:15,520
Speaker 1: called the Green Monster organic celery, organic cucumber, organic kale,

592
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:20,880
Speaker 1: or getting spinach organic parsley. I still think this is

593
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:23,239
Speaker 1: my favorite, the one I'm about to read you all

594
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:26,239
Speaker 1: time favorite. So it's from AIR one. It's called Just

595
00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:31,680
Speaker 1: Greens organic celery, organic cucumber, organic kale, organic remain lettuce,

596
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:35,279
Speaker 1: organic dandyline, or ganing parsley. It's my favorite. It's just

597
00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:39,280
Speaker 1: like straight down the line, clean greens, oh clean. Speaking

598
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,440
Speaker 1: of clean greens, this is another one from AIR one.

599
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:44,919
Speaker 1: I tried or ganting cucumber or getting spinach or getting

600
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:47,680
Speaker 1: it remain lettuce, organic mint, and organic lemons. That was

601
00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:50,399
Speaker 1: nice for like mixing up, so you can probably tell

602
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 1: I go fruit free when I try really hard to clans.

603
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 1: And then there's another Just Greens here as well, So

604
00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:00,640
Speaker 1: of course if you have a J at home, you

605
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,799
Speaker 1: could totally do it. If you're in Melbourne or Victoria,

606
00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:08,200
Speaker 1: definitely check out Karmick Cleanse and use the code Lola.

Speaker 1: I just want you to if you want to cleanse.

609
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:17,759
Speaker 1: It's my favorite one in Australia, and they have a

610
00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,319
Speaker 1: one that I do there called the Zen Cleanse and

611
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:23,040
Speaker 1: it's pretty much exactly what I just described to you.

612
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:26,000
Speaker 1: But at night you have this delicious almond milk, like

613
00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:29,280
Speaker 1: a spiced alm and milk, and that really keeps you full.

614
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:31,680
Speaker 1: So I wasn't doing the arm of milk or smoothies

615
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:34,160
Speaker 1: at night. I did like a salad or veggies because

616
00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 1: I just really really want to keep my fiber up.

617
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 1: And that's why the Karmic ones so good because they

618
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:42,359
Speaker 1: put the pulp of the armand I'm quite sure back in.

619
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,120
Speaker 1: So that's a good option if you're in Victoria. Again,

620
00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:47,520
Speaker 1: codes Lola should get you a discount. If it doesn't,

621
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 1: just DM me and I'll sort it out and follow

622
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:54,520
Speaker 1: up for you. So yeah, that has been my juice cleans.

623
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:59,160

636
00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:41,120

637
00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:44,000
Speaker 1: mates for a long time, so he's such a chance

638
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,520
Speaker 1: for jumping on the pod of rooms. And if you

639
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:51,160
Speaker 1: are planning when the borders and everything opens next year,

640
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:56,440
Speaker 1: definitely make sure you visit his places like they're all incredible.

641
00:36:56,680 --> 00:37:01,680
Speaker 1: The coffee at Strings of Life assh and their breakfast

642
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 1: burrito looks insane. And then of course by the time

Speaker 1: that Australians can travel to La again, he will have

644
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 1: launched Grand Master Records, which I wrote about it here.

645
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:18,600
Speaker 1: I think it used to be a recording studio in

646
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:22,960
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy one. Pretty cool. Yeah, but it's going to

647
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:27,400
Speaker 1: be a rooftop bar, live music and an Italian restaurant,

648
00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:29,440
Speaker 1: and I think the Icebergs people are running it, so

649
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:34,160
Speaker 1: it's going to be amazing. But yeah, definitely, I hope

00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:46,040
Speaker 1: mate in La so I don't feel so lonely. It's

653
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 1: funny being on the other side of the world and

654
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:53,920
Speaker 1: like having the support of Matt Bosco, but also it

655
00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:58,560
Speaker 1: feels still feels like kind of lonely because you're on

656
00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:02,800
Speaker 1: a different time zone, you know. And so for example,

657
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:06,560
Speaker 1: it's what time is it now? It's six am in

658
