I'm gonna wear Hogwarts T shirt 17 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 1: Matt doesn't want and he thinks he's too cool, and 18 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 1: it's like you're the biggest Harry Potter fan I know, mate. Anyway, 19 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: we are going to go and have the best Harry 20 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: Potter Day. But of course I have to get in 21 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 1: and record a diary pod for you because we will 22 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: be on the Hogwarts Express as the itp comes out. 23 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: So yes, the birthday week, we've got Harry Potter World 24 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 1: and Universal Studios. Today, we've got friends coming over of 25 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 1: dinner and drinks Tomorrow night. My birthday is Saturday. I 26 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,039 Speaker 1: was meant to be in a TV presenting course all day, 27 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: but it just got canceled, so I have no idea 28 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 1: what I'm gonna do for my birthday. Sunday and Monday, 29 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: we're meant to be going up to Big Bear, but 30 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 1: there's quite a lot of fires going on in California 31 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: at the moment, so that's just gonna have to be 32 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 1: The b people are so lovely, They're just like, just 33 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: decide twenty four hours before you're fine. So we're probably 34 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: just gonna have to wait and see if it all 35 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 1: comes down, if it opens back up. All scary though, 36 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: Like I mean, obviously a big majority of you are 37 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:21,919 Speaker 1: Ossie listeners. Although to my American friends, I just found 38 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 1: out that the pod audience is now thirty eight percent American, 39 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:30,799 Speaker 1: which is really exciting. But to my Aussie listeners. We 40 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,799 Speaker 1: know what fire season is like because Australia gets hit 41 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: with fires so badly. So does California. I did not 42 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 1: really know this, so I will report back, but hopefully 43 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 1: we get to go to Big Bear, and if we don't, 44 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: will be having a very chilled time in Los Angeles 45 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:53,359 Speaker 1: because I've taken time off work for a little getaway. Now. 46 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 1: Boss has been to Trader Joe's. They have launched all 47 00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: their pumpkin spice things. We haven't even tried them yet. 48 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,239 Speaker 1: I've just got them here to tell you about. Actually, 49 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: I like I've tried one thing. Bar Bells, you know 50 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: that protein bar that I've talked to about before. They 51 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: have released a pumpkin spice flavor. Very good, very full flavors. 52 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 1: I'm just smelling there. Yeah, I'm swalling the bat. It's 53 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 1: giving nut Megan cloves very good. Matt bought this really 54 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 1: cute cinnamon whisk. It's just like a cinnamon imagine like 55 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: a little tiny broom almost, And we've got it hung 56 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,959 Speaker 1: in the bathroom. So that's giving full vibes, full smells, 57 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 1: full flavors. And I'm hoping today Universal has a full 58 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: situation going on. Matt bought these pumpkin flavored JoJo's and 59 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: they basically look like Oreos, but they're pumpkin flavored. And 60 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: people have written to me and they're like, oh my god, 61 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: these are amazing. You're going to love them. We haven't 62 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: had them yet. I have tried the pumpkin spice Oreos though, 63 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 1: and they are insane. Apparently there's a Ben and Jerry's 64 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: pumpkin cheesecake flavor, and there's this Target brand ice cream 65 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: pumpkin cheesecake flavor also, but Mac got these. These look 66 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 1: like the winners Pumpkin spice teeny tiny pretzels with yogurt 67 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: flavored coating and crush pumpkin spiced pumpkin seeds on top. 68 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 1: They look amazing. I haven't had one yet and it's 69 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: too early in the morning to eat it. And then 70 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:28,719 Speaker 1: he got this pumpkin cider and it's got fermented apple juice, 71 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: pumpkin pure and spices. Also excited to try that, So 72 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 1: by next week I'm sure I'll be able to have that. 73 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: We said we might take these as snacks to Big 74 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 1: Bear if we end up going, so I will definitely 75 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: review all of these for you, and you will get 76 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: four of you in next week's diary episode. Oh so 77 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: that's that. Also, about an hour ago, we had a 78 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: massive earthquake five point one on the Richter scale, and 79 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 1: the apartment was shaking for a longer period time. It 80 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: wasn't as scary some of the ones that were closer 81 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: to us. This one happened in Malibu, so on the 82 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: kind of like the coast. We've had experiences with ones 83 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 1: that are much closer to us that are less like 84 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,159 Speaker 1: they're a four point nine four point seven, but feel 85 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,839 Speaker 1: scarier because I was a little closer to them. So 86 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,040 Speaker 1: that just happened this morning. And what happens is your 87 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 1: phone gets this alert and like an alarm goes off 88 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:28,479 Speaker 1: and it says emergency alert, earthquake detected, drop cover, hold on, 89 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: protect yourself USGS shake alert. So we both got that, 90 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 1: but totally it felt just like the other ones, but 91 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 1: just lasted for longer. Didn't feel an after shake, but 92 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 1: I'm sure people like Malibu area to Panga area would have. 93 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 1: I did a really cool pod yesterday with this awesome 94 00:05:54,400 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 1: guest called Michael Gallion.

Anyway, 96 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,279 Speaker 1: we went and recorded at Soho Works, which is like 97 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 1: Soho House. Actually it's next door to Soho House in 98 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: West Hollywood, and they gave us a little podroom there. 99 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 1: So shout out to Justin for making it happen and 100 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 1: Soho Works for letting us record there.
