Basically 123 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,160 Speaker 2: they don't acknowledge your credit score from Australia, so like 124 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 2: if you've had a credit card with I don't know, Commonwealth, 125 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 2: A and ZED or Westpark or NAB, it doesn't exist here, 126 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 2: so you literally are starting like an eighteen year old 127 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 2: at zero with zero credit rating, which makes it really 128 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 2: hard to find a rental to Lisa car, to buy 129 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 2: anything when I see like anything big like buy a 130 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 2: house or something, or to say you want to Lisa shop, 131 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 2: really really hard to do without credit score. So as 132 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,479 Speaker 2: soon as I could, I opened a credit card. It 133 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 2: took me about six months to be able to do that. 134 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 2: So when I got here last year, I opened a 135 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 2: bank account, which is reasonably straightforward to do. Fun fact, 136 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 2: they used to let animals open bank accounts here. I'm 137 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 2: not joking the bank.

Are you surprised, I'm weirdly not weirdly not 140 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 2: surprised anyway, because animals are like the krem de la 141 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 2: crem here. Like you'll see people literally carrying animals everywhere 142 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 2: you go. 143 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 1: I don't know if I've seen them in the movies, 144 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: but there everywhere.

You swipe your credit card and 174 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 2: like put your pin in and then it starts ticking 175 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 2: over and counting me dollars when you start pumping pumping gas. 176 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 2: And then when you put the nozzle back in there 177 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 2: thing that holds it, then that's when your card gets 178 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 2: charged very curl. So it's this you don't even need 179 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 2: to go in and pay. But sometimes in the past, 180 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 2: before I had a credit card, I would always go 181 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 2: in and pre pay because you got to have an 182 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 2: American credit card to be able to do that, so 183 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 2: that that's another interesting ala. One one had a really 184 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 2: yummy dinner out at a Mexican place called Taco Taco 185 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 2: Madrea Toaco Madrea, I hope, I'm I bet you. I'm 186 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 2: putting making that sound very Australiana and Bogan, but it 187 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 2: was really really. 188 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: Yummy West Hollywood. 189 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 2: I had a couple of really yummy mezcal drinks, so 190 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 2: I didn't know that. I didn't think get Men's Color 191 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 2: in Australia, but a friend told me that you can. 192 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 2: But basically it's a like kind of like really aged 193 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 2: and fermented kind of tequila and it's got a much 194 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 2: more smoky flavor. So I've been enjoying Men's Coal margs 195 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 2: here with like a lot of spice around the rim, 196 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 2: really yummy. And I got this other cocktail that had 197 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 2: like u zoo and matchuring it and that was really fun, 198 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 2: and that was like quite theatrical, like I had to 199 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 2: open this little bottle attached to the side of it 200 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 2: tip the menz calin very fun, very cute, and the 201 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 2: food was delicious and really easy to be gluten free, 202 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 2: of course because it's Mexicana, right. Oh, next up, Okay, 203 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 2: can not speak highly enough of this saw top gun. 204 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: Went to this. 205 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 2: Place called the Americana Brand, and it's created by the 206 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,079 Speaker 2: people that created the Grove. So it's a very pretty 207 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 2: like outdoor shopping malt. It actually looks like a carbon 208 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 2: copy of the Grove and it's the same design I'm 209 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 2: presuming same owners. But it's in Glendale, which is really 210 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:07,079 Speaker 2: close to me, so it was amazing. There's a really 211 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 2: good hack if you go there. So in America, famously, 212 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:15,439 Speaker 2: it's expensive to park at certain places and you always 213 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:20,439 Speaker 2: are trying to validate your parking. But here this Americana Brand, 214 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,319 Speaker 2: this outdoor shopping mall is across the road from another 215 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 2: shopping mall called the Glendale Galleries, which has free parking. 216 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 2: So I had already figured out my hack. I went 217 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,680 Speaker 2: back there yesterday to get a blow wave, and I 218 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 2: parked at Glendale Galleries, cross the road into the big, expensive, 219 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,959 Speaker 2: gorgeous mall, didn't have to pay for parking. 220 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 1: So that's a good little one on one hack if 221 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 1: you're in LA. 222 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 2: But yeah, anyway, so I went to Glendale Galleries and 223 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 2: went to ACM, so I think I'm presuming that stands 224 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 2: for like American Cinema ACA AMC, a American Movie Cinema AMC. 225 00:11:59,120 --> 00:11:59,959 Speaker 1: And I saw Top Guy. 226 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:05,719 Speaker 2: Oh, holy molely. Top Gun is incredible. It's so amazing. 227 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 2: Cannot speak highly enough. Val Kilma is brought back into it. 228 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 2: And if you know anything about his story, which I 229 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:17,440 Speaker 2: didn't know anything about, there's a documentary on Valkilma that 230 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:18,840 Speaker 2: everyone says is amazing. 231 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 1: But this won't give anything away, so I'm not ruining 232 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 1: the movie for you. 233 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:28,560 Speaker 2: But in real life, Val Kilma has throat cancer and 234 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 2: has lost his voice effectively, and they were able to 235 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 2: bring him back into the movie and you know, recreate 236 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 2: Iceman and when he speaks. I did some research after 237 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 2: they literally worked with like an AI company in London 238 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 2: to get his voice to sound how VAL's voice would 239 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 2: have sounded, so very amazing. Tom Cruise is obviously phenomenally, 240 00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 2: the whole cast is amazing. Soundtracks obviously phenomenal. It's a 241 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 2: really great homage to like old not old Hollywood, but 242 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 2: like a Hollywood blockbuster, Like it feels like a big 243 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:13,319 Speaker 2: summer blockbuster movie.

It's really nice to experience on 247 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 2: the big screen. I don't tell me any Aussie listeners 248 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 2: that have seen it, but when you see it in America, 249 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 2: it's before it starts. Tom Cruise does this bit to 250 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 2: camera and it's like, hey, guys, thank you so much 251 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 2: for coming. You know.

I had another fun I've had 306 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 2: a few fun callbacks, and so callback is where they 307 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 2: liked your submission or audition and then you're shortlisted. And 308 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 2: so when you're shortlisted, I did one where I had 309 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 2: to sign an NDA, and then they send you scripts 310 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 2: for the ad or commercial or whatever it is for, 311 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 2: and then you deliver another audition with fresh the fresh 312 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 2: scripts that they've sent you, but you've signed an NDA 313 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 2: on them, so you're not allowed to talk about them, 314 00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 2: which means I can't say anything yet. So I'm hoping. 315 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 2: I'm hoping I either get it. I mean, that'd be great, 316 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 2: but or don't get it and can talk to you 317 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 2: about it all the or I see the AD. 318 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: Come out and I'll be like, oh, that's what I 319 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 1: audition for. 320 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 2: Now I can talk about it. So but that was 321 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 2: a lot of fun and really quick turn around. Like 322 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 2: I signed the NDA, it came through as soon as 323 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 2: I woke up, so I signed it at like seven 324 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 2: am in the morning, and then within two hours they'd 325 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:28,680 Speaker 2: sent me new scripts, and then I had about two 326 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 2: hours to delive out there like we need it by 327 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:30,880 Speaker 2: end of day. 328 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 1: So it's pretty quick. It's very very quick, but so fun. 329 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,199 Speaker 2: And because it's so quick, it kind of forces you 330 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 2: to get out of your own way and get out 331 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 2: of your head. So that was a lot of fun. 332 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,680 Speaker 2: Collected some things for you that I've tried. I've got 333 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 2: my top gun stub here. I'll definitely start to stick 334 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 2: that in my little Americana Manifesto book. I've tried some 335 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 2: really nice bars, so I've found some good health ones now, 336 00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:02,679 Speaker 2: Like I've really definitely steered away from anything that is 337 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 2: like artivisually sweet and stuff. I think I was telling 338 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 2: you when I first got here, I was enjoying stuff 339 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 2: that was like so delicious, but then I'd read the 340 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,679 Speaker 2: packet and be like, no, So I've tried an am 341 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:18,119 Speaker 2: RX bar. This is one of those ones that's like 342 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,719 Speaker 2: says everything on the front of the packet. So this 343 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:24,920 Speaker 2: has three tablespoons of oats, fourteen peanuts, two egg whites, 344 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 2: two teaspoons of honey, and no bs. The flavor was honey, cinnamon, peanut, 345 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 2: but are delicious, so nice clean. It's probably got a 346 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 2: little bit more carbohydrate and sugar. Yeah, so twenty nine carbs. 347 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 1: Four of that is. 348 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 2: Fibar and twelve sugars, which would be from the honey 349 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,880 Speaker 2: because honey's pretty sugar, pretty straight sugary, and plus oats 350 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,400 Speaker 2: of carby. But it was really nice and I didn't 351 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,240 Speaker 2: get bloated or feel sick after this one. I think 352 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 2: is my favorite. Guys, they're called Atlas bars. They're really clean, 353 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 2: sixteens of protein, one grammar sugar, three neck carbs, mind 354 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 2: body nutritions. They put all this cool like I had 355 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 2: one the other day that had ushwa gunder in it. 356 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 1: Okay, let's have a look with this one. 357 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 2: Two hundred and ten cows so grass fred fed protein, 358 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 2: get it out, Lalla almond butter, non gmo, tapioca, fibar, 359 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 2: vegetable glycerom, water, sunflower licuth and natural flavor, himalay and 360 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 2: pink salt, organic USh or gunder great adaptogenic. And then 361 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:36,119 Speaker 2: monk fruits all swiming munk fruit, really nice, no baddies. 362 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 2: And that tastes like what a health bar should taste like. 363 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 2: It doesn't taste like I've had ones before. That tastes 364 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,359 Speaker 2: like Mars bars. And you're like, I know that this 365 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 2: is not real flavors. I went to air one, you know, 366 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 2: my fave. So I got this NAD plus supplement. It's 367 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 2: called NAD platinum. So it's got other cofactors in it, 368 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 2: like rhizeratroc or seton. I think there's some bees. They've 369 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 2: got like riber flavor in there. Yeah, and it's basically 370 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 2: got all the cofactors needed for NAD production. So last 371 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:07,400 Speaker 2: time I spoke to you, when I took this supplement, 372 00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:11,639 Speaker 2: I just bought the straight precursor. It's called NMN, whereas 373 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,439 Speaker 2: this has got NMN plus all these other things. So 374 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:18,800 Speaker 2: expensive though, seventy nine to ninety nine American, so it'd 375 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 2: be like one hundred and ten hundred and twenty barks Australian. 376 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 2: You take it sublingually, so it's like you put a 377 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 2: little bit on a teaspoon under the tongue, hold it 378 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 2: for thirty seconds, and then Bob's your uncle, and you 379 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 2: do it daily. 380 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:33,879 Speaker 1: I did it this morning. 381 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:40,399 Speaker 2: It was really good. But yeah, it's expensive. That's an expense. 382 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:40,919 Speaker 1: I'm hoping. 383 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 2: I feel so youthful and vital, so it's an anti 384 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:47,199 Speaker 2: aging thing. So you should feel great and like have 385 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 2: good energy, good mental clarity, focus like laser focus. But 386 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 2: also like your skin should feel really good. The whites 387 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 2: of your eye should feel really good, more elasticity and 388 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 2: whatnot in the skin. So i'll report back. Of course, 389 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 2: one is actually where I found those Atlas bars, but 390 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,640 Speaker 2: I have seen them at Galasons as well, so I'll 391 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,120 Speaker 2: probably buy them at Galsons. Beoming forward because I reckon 392 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,920 Speaker 2: they'll be a pinch cheaper at Galsons. 393 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 1: What were they here? 394 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 2: Oh they were two ninety nine actually, which isn't too bad. 395 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 2: That's actually not bad for a protein bar um. Oh yeah, 396 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,119 Speaker 2: I got a green a green juice. 397 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:29,159 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have that after this. 398 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 2: Actually, I got my favorite vegan taco salad, and then 399 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:37,120 Speaker 2: I got a slice of vegan gluten free pumpkin pie 400 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,920 Speaker 2: which was really good and choc chip vegan gluten free 401 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 2: cookie which I've told you about before, that delucious brand, 402 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 2: so good.
