1
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:04,800
Speaker 1: Welcome to your Diary episode. Here's the thing.

2
00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:08,399
Speaker 2: I'm a bit of a nomad, so these episodes come

3
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:11,600
Speaker 2: to you from wherever I'm living or traveling to at

4
00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 2: the time, so I'll share with you what's going on

5
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:19,400
Speaker 2: in my world, from book tours, animal encounters, delish meals,

6
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:24,640
Speaker 2: nature adventures, health discoveries to swimming in Hidden Byron Bay Beaches.

7
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:33,080
Speaker 2: Come with me as I share my adventures with you. Hello, friends,

8
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,279
Speaker 2: Los Angeles, Diary coming for you.

9
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:37,320
Speaker 1: It's been a big week.

10
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 2: We've crammed a lot of stuff in this week, and

11
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:44,600
Speaker 2: I don't have too much update you on the acting front. Really,

12
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:48,880
Speaker 2: I haven't done any auditions this week. Oh I did one,

13
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 2: but I feel like I did that last week right

14
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 2: before I record the pod. Anyway, quite quite slow on

15
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:57,960
Speaker 2: the acting front. Super normal this time of year. It

16
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 2: is summertime and a lot of execs and casting directors

17
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:06,399
Speaker 2: and agents and managers go and do a euro summer

18
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 2: So this is not rattling my feathers at all. Is

19
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 2: that saying? In the past, it has, but it's definitely

20
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 2: not this year because it's so normal and new. Chat

21
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 2: to other actors and they'll tell you the same thing.

22
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 2: But the POD's been really busy, so I've kind of

23
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,199
Speaker 2: been just focusing all my energy on this Potter roon

24
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 2: and I love that the pod is like this thing

25
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 2: that I pour my heart and soul into, but it

26
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,680
Speaker 2: just gives back to me in ways like this week

27
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 2: when it was much quieter on the audition front, but

28
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 2: then off the back of running into some old mates

29
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 2: at the Aussie Christmas thing on the weekend, I booked

30
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 2: some podcuests. So with that said, I booked Monte Franklin,

31
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 2: who's been on the Pod before. He's a very funny

32
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 2: Australian stand up comedian, also an actor, writer, producer. He's

33
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 2: directed a bunch as well. And we run into each

34
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 2: other at the Aussie Christmas and he's doing this movie

35
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 2: and I said to him, Monty, you promised me our

36
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 2: could audition for your movie. And he's like what, And

37
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 2: I'm like, you promised me about a year and a

38
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 2: half ago that I could audition for your movie. And

39
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 2: he's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, cool. Can I come back

40
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 2: on your Pod? And I go, yeah, okay, And so

41
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 2: I don't know if I've just talked myself into an audition,

42
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 2: but wrapped about it.

43
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 1: Number One number two.

44
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 2: It was so nice just to sit down with him

45
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 2: and get him on the pod ahead of a big

46
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:30,360
Speaker 2: global tour that he's doing. So he's doing America, the

47
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:35,520
Speaker 2: UK then and then where does he go. It's like

48
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 2: Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, then Australia, New Zealand and I

49
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,359
Speaker 2: think he's doing regional Australia but he hasn't released those

50
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 2: dates and venues yet. But he's touring as of like

51
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,640
Speaker 2: next week through to Chris the end of the year,

52
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 2: so NonStop human but it was really great god to

53
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 2: sit down and chat. The last time he was on

54
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 2: the pod, it's EP three ninety if you want to

55
00:02:58,000 --> 00:02:59,639
Speaker 2: go back and listen to the first time he was

56
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 2: on the podd It was so much fun, but like

57
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 2: a lot had changed for him and a lot had happened,

58
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 2: and so we got to have a really nice catch

59
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 2: up because when we caught up at the Ossie's in

60
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,080
Speaker 2: La party on the weekend, by the time I got

61
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 2: to chat to Monty, it was already like a lot

62
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:22,800
Speaker 2: of people were a few do Australian say, Bruski's beers deep?

63
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean?

64
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,800
Speaker 2: And he wasn't drinking and I think I'd sat on

65
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 2: two drinks with the whole thing. So let's talk about

66
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:32,959
Speaker 2: Ozzie Christmas in LA. The bossco and I went last weekend.

67
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 2: It was lots of fun. It was like a big

68
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 2: sit down lunch and then an after party. The sit

69
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 2: down lunch was for two hundred and fifty people, the

70
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 2: after party was for fifteen hundred people, So it's like

71
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 2: Ossie's United. Pretty much like you just see all these

72
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 2: Australians that you might not have seen for Yonks, especially

73
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 2: for me because I don't live near a lot of

74
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 2: the Aussies that live in that kind of like there's

75
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 2: a real Aussie pocket in LA and I'm not in

76
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 2: that area and I only in that so it was

77
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 2: kind of nice to catch up with faces I hadn't

78
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 2: seen for like a year or a couple of years,

79
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 2: like Scott Tweety who runs it. The last time I

80
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 2: saw him was literally we were both boarding the same

81
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 2: Quantus flight from Australia to LA on a night flight

82
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 2: and we ran into each other walking to the gate.

83
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 2: So that was the last time I'd seen Scott Tweety

84
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 2: and beat congrats if you ever hear this, Scott or

85
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 2: Jess just stats on a great party. So it was

86
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 2: a lot of fun and a lot of Australian cheer,

87
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 2: and we a bunch of our mates went as well,

88
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 2: so it was just really nice to catch up with people.

89
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 2: And yeah, off the back of that, booked a couple

90
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 2: of podcasts. So Monte's app is actually going to come

91
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 2: out on Monday, just ahead of his tour, and I

92
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 2: want to be able to put in the show notes

93
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 2: his tour details, all that kind of thing. So that

94
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 2: is really really exciting and I'm so proud of him,

95
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 2: and I'm just wrapped that I got to rind to

96
00:04:56,120 --> 00:05:00,280
Speaker 2: so many mates. So the next thing that happened this

97
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,919
Speaker 2: week was other than doing a lot of pod prayer,

98
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 2: because you know me, I like to prepare for my

99
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 2: guests really really well. I then also Matt and I

100
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 2: went to a mate's place for dinner, our friend Anthony

101
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 2: and Alex and we made a big Italiano feast so

102
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,599
Speaker 2: much time. I love that, I say we Matt made

103
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 2: a big Italiano feast. He made cotoletta, which is like

104
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 2: Italian schnitzel, but it's not chicken schnitzel. It's pork, I believe,

105
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 2: and he made for cauch from scratch and he made biscotti,

106
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 2: but it was a special type of biscotti.

107
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:34,480
Speaker 1: I don't know if you can hear me. Can you

108
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:40,159
Speaker 1: hear me, boo? What was the type of biscotti you made? Contrucchi?

109
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 1: He made a country chi.

110
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 2: So it's like it tasted to me, and I might

111
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,479
Speaker 2: be saying this wrong, but to me, it tasted like

112
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 2: a bit of a lemon almond biscotti.

113
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 1: Situation, really really yummy.

114
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,200
Speaker 2: And then we got to hang with their dogs that night,

115
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 2: so that was really lovely. I've been trying out a

116
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 2: new yogat studio just as a student. It's called One

117
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 2: Down Dog, three different locations that I'm aware of all

118
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 2: over La. So if you come to La and you're like, oh,

119
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,239
Speaker 2: I want to do some yogs, don't want hot yoga,

120
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:10,920
Speaker 2: just regular good old vinnie like a vinyasa flow class.

121
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 2: It's really nice and I'm going again tomorrow with my

122
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,919
Speaker 2: friend Meg. Speaking of my friend Meg, she's also a

123
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:21,040
Speaker 2: yog's teacher, and we are really keen to run a

124
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 2: yoga retreat together, probably like Joshua Tree, Palm springsy kind

125
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 2: of area. Meg's an incredible vinyasa teacher also teachers Yinn

126
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 2: and somatic movement, whereas with me, you've got the Vinyasa,

127
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 2: the Yinn and nutrition. So we were like, oh, with

128
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,719
Speaker 2: our powers combined, we should do a retreat. So we're

129
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 2: working behind the scenes on that one. In fact, as

130
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 2: soon as I get off from this pod with you,

131
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 2: I'm going to focus on a menu a menu plan.

132
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 2: I don't know if you remember, I had a retreat

133
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 2: plan for Byron Bay with my great Yogi friend in Australia,

134
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 2: Dunk and Parveen, who's also been on this pot a

135
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:58,160
Speaker 2: bunch of times.

136
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 1: But COVID stopped that for us, and.

137
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,839
Speaker 2: We were so excited and we were all systems ago

138
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,719
Speaker 2: and then yeah, Covid, with all the lockdowns in Australia,

139
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 2: that retreat never came to be, never came to be.

140
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: My friends, what else?

141
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 2: Oh, my friend just Alex just lent me a book

142
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 2: and I've just started reading it. I'm up to chapter

143
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 2: five and I'm already hook line and Sinker loving it.

144
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 2: It's definitely fantasy genre and enemies to lover as trope.

145
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 2: So you know, if you're a Fourth Wing girlie, or

146
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 2: you know you love the Akatar series, you're probably gonna

147
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,880
Speaker 2: like this. I believe it's a standalone read. It's called

148
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 2: amid Clouds and Bones by Allah Fields. From what I

149
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 2: can gather, there's humans, fay, and then there's like a

150
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 2: combo of the two, like kind of mixed blood and heat.

151
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 2: Our lead protagonist is a mixed blood and they look

152
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 2: down upon her or the Faye and the humans look

153
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 2: down upon her because she's mixed. And then there's a

154
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 2: betrothed marriage to kind of like better the kingdoms and

155
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 2: create the right alliances. And it's definitely giving enemies to lovers.

156
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 2: So five chapters in, quite liking it and just a fun,

157
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 2: like you know read. Boss and I are actually going

158
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 2: doing a little road trip with our neighbors. We're going

159
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 2: to go state their ranch in Santa Barbara this weekend,

160
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 2: so I'm packing that book. I think that's gonna be

161
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 2: a really nice kind of like pool read to just

162
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,559
Speaker 2: chill and I'm just looking forward to unwinding for a

163
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 2: couple of days, chilling by the pool, all that kind

164
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:42,320
Speaker 2: of thing. And if you have any wrekis I haven't

165
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 2: been to Santa Barbara before. We know it's near Solvang.

166
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 2: Is this incredible Dutch town and we're gonna go via,

167
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 2: so I think we might go to Solvang first and

168
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 2: then head to Santa Barbara. We're kind of figuring all

169
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 2: that out today, and Solvang at Christmas time is a vibe,

170
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 2: so I'm hoping we get to go back at Crimbo

171
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,439
Speaker 2: time as well, because I love Christmas and I love

172
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 2: anything Christmasy. But we're just going to go to experience

173
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 2: solving as it is tomorrow, this cute little dutchdown.

174
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 1: How cute right, Maybe a winery, I don't know.

175
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 2: We're just going to see how it all unfolds.

176
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 1: But that's the week. That's pretty much the week that was.

177
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,719
Speaker 2: Like I said, mainly been in podland, which has been

178
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 2: so much fun and really like hustling to get some

179
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:34,080
Speaker 2: really great local talent on the pod, whether it's actors, writers, directors,

180
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:37,680
Speaker 2: really in that kind of world and just like cold

181
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 2: sliding into people's dm as being like can I get

182
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 2: you on the pod? So that's been really really exciting

183
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 2: to just kind of.

184
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,840
Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, just see who says yes.

185
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,160
Speaker 2: And also it takes me of courage because I know

186
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 2: about you, but like I obviously get a little bit

187
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 2: of self doubt. And I'm like, oh, I don't know

188
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 2: if they'd want to say yes. And then I'm like,

189
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 2: hang on, a sick POD's almost six years old. In August,

190
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 2: we're like seven hundred epste We've got to have a

191
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:07,479
Speaker 2: two million downloads.

192
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 1: I'm like, holy Mac, this is a great little potto.

193
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 2: So I gotta have my American confidence totally, like in

194
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:21,840
Speaker 2: my vision and energy when I cold email or cold

195
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 2: slid into people's DMS asking him to jump on the pot.

196
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 2: But I've been really in that energy and it's been

197
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:30,240
Speaker 2: so much fun and it's been colled just to connect

198
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 2: with people. And yeah, I book my own guests in

199
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 2: case you were Sometimes they pitch get pitched, especially Ossie

200
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,719
Speaker 2: ones will often get pitched via like book publicists or

201
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 2: they'll go through my pod manager in Australia. But I love,

202
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,960
Speaker 2: I don't know, I love like finding little gems of

203
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 2: people and just being like could you want to jump

204
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 2: on the pod? And if they're like yeah, then I

205
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,600
Speaker 2: get them on. But yeah, so fun. I feel like

206
00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 2: I'm really wafflings, as has become a little of the

207
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 2: Friday Diary ritual. Well, I am going to do a

208
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 2: little oracle card reading for you so as always. What

209
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 2: my nan taught me is you always shuffle with your

210
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,319
Speaker 2: left hand because I'm right handed. So I'm doing a

211
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,440
Speaker 2: little shuffle now, and I'm shuffling the way my friend Denise,

212
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:16,440
Speaker 2: who's a psychic, taught me, which is you put them

213
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:20,679
Speaker 2: into little piles and then you kind of move them

214
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 2: around and then you do your little like rainbow bit

215
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 2: and that's how you pull your cards. And for those

216
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 2: that have seen me do this before or heard me

217
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 2: do this before, the way that I do is I

218
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 2: pull three cards past, Present, Future. Then I look at

219
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 2: the bottom of the deck, top of the deck, and

220
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:41,439
Speaker 2: that's how I do. We're reading, so we're pulling past, present,

221
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 2: future now, and then I'll just stack the deck back

222
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 2: up so I can easily look at the top of

223
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 2: the deck and I think today as I record this,

224
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:51,959
Speaker 2: it's a new moon in Leo, which is all about

225
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:58,199
Speaker 2: passion and igniting your like purpose. So the card for

226
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 2: past remember past can be an hour ago, so it

227
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,719
Speaker 2: can be yesterday, it can be a week ago. Friendship,

228
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 2: make a date for play, make a date for a

229
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 2: play day with.

230
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,680
Speaker 1: One or more friends. It's a really cute card too.

231
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:14,560
Speaker 2: These are the door in Virtue, Mermaid and Dolphin cards presence.

232
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 2: That's for now. Rest you've been working hard. Take a

233
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:19,199
Speaker 2: nap and get some rest.

234
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: Okay. Love that. Love that that feels.

235
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 2: Very aligned for Boss and I's little Santa Barbara trip

236
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 2: for the future. Stay optimistic, your dreams are coming true.

237
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 2: Don't quit right before the miracle occurs. Love that top

238
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 2: of the deck, healing heart. You are a powerful healer.

239
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 2: Keep up the great work. Bottom of the deck. You

240
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 2: are being helped. Heaven is working behind the scenes to

241
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 2: help you, even if you don't see results yet.

242
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:55,439
Speaker 1: All right, how cool? Well, so good? So there you go.

243
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:56,720
Speaker 1: How exciting.

244
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,440
Speaker 2: I feel like I've got a fun week and weekend

245
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,680
Speaker 2: to update you on. And I think Santa Barbara is

246
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 2: like o Hai region, but we've done OHI, so I

247
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 2: think we'll go more like wine country vibes this time.

248
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm just looking forward to it.

249
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 2: And I'm gonna get packing so that we can I

250
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 2: can do some yolks tomorrow, catch up with Meg, talk

251
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 2: about the retreat, and then hit the road. Do you

252
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 2: know what I mean to have a day in Solvang

253
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 2: or Santa Barbara or get to the ocean. We don't

254
00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 2: get to the ocean that much.

255
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:28,079
Speaker 1: That's it.

256
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 2: We were obviously at Santa Monica Beach last weekend, but

257
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,800
Speaker 2: you know, be nice just to take it super easy

258
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:39,520
Speaker 2: and spend some time in nature. You know, how cool,

259
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 2: how lucky? What else tell you? I feel like that

260
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,360
Speaker 2: is me. I'll do my final last like the way

261
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,319
Speaker 2: I do it is I look at my phone. Look

262
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 2: at my phone. I'm loving Substack. By the way, mine,

263
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,720
Speaker 2: I've just kept totally free. It's totally free. So if

264
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 2: you log onto substack and look up your my Laula

265
00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 2: Berry totally free.

266
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 1: Last week. Oh, we're on a really nice hike.

267
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:06,080
Speaker 2: It's called the We're not a really nice hike with

268
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:06,960
Speaker 2: my friend Chloe.

269
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 1: I believe it's called the.

270
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 2: Bronson Hike or the Beechwood Canyon Hike. Anyway, you go

271
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 2: up Canyon Drive Beechwood Canyon Hike. You go up Canyon

272
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 2: Drive right near Galison's off Franklin Ave, and you're right

273
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 2: through a residential street and then you park and you

274
00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 2: use this incredible hike and you kind of come out

275
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,240
Speaker 2: at the bottom of the Hollywood signs. Really cool, really

276
00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 2: wide parks. We saw a deer, we saw a few

277
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 2: other animals. We definitely saw a d and that was

278
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 2: really really cool. We've been hiking because it's summer here.

279
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 2: We hike Chloe and I love a little sunset hike

280
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 2: because it's just starting to cool down. But we did,

281
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 2: like I think we did like twelve thousand steps. So

282
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 2: good hikes in LA. Whether it's Runyon, Griffith Park, that one,

283
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 2: the Beechwood Canyon one.

284
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 1: What are the ones? I love?

285
00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 2: The Hollywood Lake one is great, which is where you're

286
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 2: going around this big lake looking up at the Hollywood sign.

287
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 2: That's all flat, but it's like five I think it's

288
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 2: five or six k's for my Aussies. I think Americans

289
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 2: it's like three miles. And there's one more. I was

290
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 2: going to, Oh, I love the Mandival one in brent Wood,

291
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 2: but I've seen two rattlesnakes.

292
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 1: I just want to be really honest about that.

293
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:25,120
Speaker 2: Whereas the Griffith ones, I don't see rattlesnakes because the

294
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 2: path is so wide. But the Mandeville one in brent

295
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 2: Water is off the chain, really great hike, beautiful, very

296
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 2: like you get to see the ocean and everything. And

297
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 2: then obviously you've got the Santa Monica Mountains and the

298
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 2: Topanga hikes. Also seen a rattlesnake there a bit too

299
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 2: close for comfort too, if I'm honest, it was really

300
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 2: close to me and it was rattling and had the

301
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 2: s shape. Oh, I don't know why it did invite me,

302
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 2: it was so close to my leg. Anyway, it's a

303
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:56,720
Speaker 2: whole nother story for another day. And then there's obviously

304
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 2: great hikes in Palm Springs and Joshua Tree and I

305
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 2: have definitely seeing rattlesnakes out there too. Anyway, I didn't

306
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 2: think I go down the rattlesnake rabbit hole with you.

307
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 2: I've seen five in the time I've been Los Angeles.

308
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:10,040
