The 12 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:47,160 Speaker 1: Friday Podcast is like a diary check in. I moved 13 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: to LA three months ago, and so on Fridays, I 14 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 1: kind of just let you know what's going on in 15 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 1: my little vortex my phone and making sure it's on 16 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 1: aeroplane mode. And yeah, it becomes a diary check in. 17 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 1: And then your Monday episode, I interview people for Fearlessly Failing. 18 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,759 Speaker 1: Although this is all feelously Failing, it's an interview where 19 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 1: I talk to people about life in LA and what 20 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 1: they're doing. And I love connecting to people in real life, 21 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 1: especially after doing a lot of Lockdown in Australia last year. 22 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,479 Speaker 1: I really have tried with the podcast now that when 23 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: I interview people, I really try to make sure I 24 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 1: can do it in person. I know that's tricky because 25 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 1: especially right now, Australia is back in lockdown again, or 26 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:37,680 Speaker 1: a lot of Australia is. 27 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 2: But I just figure if. 28 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 1: I can while I can, why not make the most 29 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,559 Speaker 1: of every opportunity to record in real life. 30 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 2: I love it. 31 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 1: I think it's a really great way to connect to people, 32 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 1: and it always sounds really crisp and clear when you're 33 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: recording in real life. So yes, I didn't think i'd 34 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 1: be talking to you about that, but I am. I 35 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 1: have so so much to cover with you. I try 36 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 1: to make these Friday episodes kind of like short and sweet. 37 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,080 Speaker 1: But I don't know how I'm going to do that 38 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 1: this week because I've done a lot. Here's here's all 39 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: the things that I've tried that I want to talk 40 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 1: to you about. Yeah, I've done loads, I've eaten loads, 41 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: I've tried loads of new things. I've tried healthy things, 42 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: not healthy things. I've yeah done so much, and I've 43 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 1: traveled well within LA. I've traveled and gone our adventures. 44 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: So where to start. Let's get my pages all lot. Okay, 45 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: Oh yes, I wanted to do that for you, didn't 46 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 1: I All right, where should I start? I think I'm 47 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 1: going to start with acting school. Then I'll go into 48 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,640 Speaker 1: adventures because I've been to Malibu, I've been to Venice 49 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: since we last spoke Century City yesterday. So I think 50 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,519 Speaker 1: I'll do acting adventures. And then I've tried so many 51 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 1: food stuff. So yeah, let's start with acting school. Check 52 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: that the recorder's working well, which it is. Okay, so 53 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 1: acting school. As you know, I am studying every single 54 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 1: Wednesday at the Ivana Chubvik Studio here in La. The 55 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:24,079 Speaker 1: bonus is when you're a student at that studio, you 56 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: get to audit the masterclasses, which Avana takes. And I 57 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: audited last Tuesday night and it was unreal. 58 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 2: And I took some. 59 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 1: Notes and I thought, I'm going to share them with 60 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: you because you will probably get something out of them. 61 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: And I don't think you need to be into acting 62 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: to get take something from these notes. She's really into 63 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: hard work, like loves it, like someone put up a 64 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: monologue and maybe hadn't done as much work as they 65 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 1: should have. And the first question of Varna was like, 66 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: have you read the script, the full script, not just 67 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: the monologue, and I was like, oh wow, she doesn't 68 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 1: muck around, And it was kind of quite nice to 69 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 1: see because for me, like when I put a scene 70 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: up and I'm not in the master class, I'm in 71 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 1: a like introductory class. I put a lot of work 72 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 1: into it, but it's really obvious when people aren't. Like 73 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 1: one of my teachers in Australia was like a lot 74 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: of actors are lazy, and you can totally see that 75 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 1: across the board Australia, America, anywhere. That said, Americans usually 76 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,359 Speaker 1: do like run hard at the goal more so like 77 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: Australias are a little bit more chill, but it does 78 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,720 Speaker 1: kind of make sense. So when somebody is like dropping 79 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 1: the ball or clearly hasn't done the work, so to speak, 80 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 1: it was really cool to see her call them out. 81 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: So anyway, cool thing that she said this is more 82 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 1: about when you're doing a scene. But if you do 83 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: a scene that's three or more people, usually there's one 84 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 1: like hot person. 85 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 2: That they're going after. 86 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 1: I don't necessarily mean esthetically hot, I mean like the 87 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 1: person that everyone wants to get validates from the person 88 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: that everyone's going for, like a love triangle, or like 89 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: two best friends wanting one best friend's attention. There's they 90 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: call that the hot person that the other two are 91 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: like going after us. That was really interesting because I 92 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: had never thought about that before. What other notes, I've 93 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: got all my notes here, it said. She said she 94 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: always kept saying to people when before they go up 95 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 1: to empty the vessel. So imagine if like you're not 96 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: into acting at all, but you've got a big presentation 97 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,119 Speaker 1: do at work. She would just be like, take a moment, 98 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: empty the vessel, go again, which I thought was kind 99 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: of cool. 100 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 2: It's like a hitting a reset button. She was really cool. 101 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 1: She's like, lovers love, we want people who make us 102 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: raise our game to. 103 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 2: Be a better person. That's really cool. That's really really cool. 104 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 1: Yeah, she kind of did a tennis analogy, and so 105 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,160 Speaker 1: she's like, yeah, you want to be around people that 106 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 1: force you to raise your game. I e. Like a 107 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,280 Speaker 1: scene partner that works really really hard. And she said, 108 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: when you're competing with someone I'm running because in the dark, 109 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: when I'm running these notes in the theater, when you're 110 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 1: competing with someone that you respect, it's like a teammate. 111 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: So when you're playing a tennis match with a tennis 112 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: player you respect, You're gonna work harder. 113 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:31,239 Speaker 2: That's really cool. We did. There was a jail scene, 114 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 2: so we talked about like. 115 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 1: What it meant to be in prison, and like looked 116 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,359 Speaker 1: at the emotional side of that, and then she was like, 117 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 1: you can always think about, like where in your life 118 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 1: do you feel like you're in a prison that you 119 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 1: need to break out of? Which I thought was really cool. 120 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: She said, anyone that so you get cast often as 121 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: an actor, will often get cast as an actor or 122 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 1: a comedian, and she was saying, often their motivation is 123 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,360 Speaker 1: to feel special or to feel loved, which was really cool. 124 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: There's a famous quote a few comedic scenes would happened. 125 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 1: There's a famous quote and forgot who it's by and 126 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: I can't read my notes, but she it's written on 127 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: a comedian's tombstone. It says, dying as easy, comedy is hard. 128 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 1: We do this scene called emotional information where you kind 129 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: of like tap into the scene, but also like, yes, 130 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: you tap into the scene, but you also like tap 131 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: into like how you can relate to that scene. Here's 132 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 1: some cool stuff. Be specific. Greatness is in the details. 133 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: Don't squash your emotions. It's hard when you use yourself 134 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: as a substitution. So they say, always like, if you're 135 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: working in substitution, that's where you're pretending. Not pretending, you're 136 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 1: believing that the other person is like you're substituting them 137 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 1: out for someone in your life that you've got that 138 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: kind of a dynamic with Our emotions are based in chaos. 139 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 1: Emotion have no logic or intelligence. You want to have 140 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 1: tunnel vision to win your objective. Anyway, be like kids 141 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: when kids really want something, She's written, don't be lazy. 142 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 2: The work will take you there. That's really cool. 143 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 1: The most important part of acting is to tell a story, 144 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: not the emotions. Cool, she's written, Keep working, it's never ending, 145 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 1: she said. The first dance steps are never what you 146 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: see when you go and see your dance. The first 147 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 1: manuscript is never in the final book, which is true. 148 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: You do like twelve minutes and she's written, it's the 149 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 1: exact same with acting work. 150 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,839 Speaker 2: How cool.

But yeah, 246 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 1: thirty six dollars US. And remember when you order food 247 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 1: in the US, you give a tip. So that was 248 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,599 Speaker 1: quite the experience. And I honestly I was going to 249 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: get a different bowl, and I thought, no, I've got 250 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 1: to try this billion dollar bowl for the podcast. And 251 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 1: it was really really delicious. I was full all day, 252 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: Like it was really hard to finish it, I'm presuming 253 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:14,560 Speaker 1: because of all the good fats in it. And of 254 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:18,720 Speaker 1: course I finished it. And then the million dollar smoothie 255 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 1: a lot of people talk about as well. But I 256 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 1: was like, I'm gonna sit down and have a I'm 257 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 1: going to go a bowl over a SMOOTHI if I'm gonna, 258 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 1: you know, sit down and enjoy it. And then basically 259 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: you walk around this little outdoor shopping area. 260 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 2: There's lots of eateries. There's a Starbucks, there's a cute. 261 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: Little Greek restaurant, but there's also like urban outfitters, free people, 262 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 1: just like lots of like it feels very for Aussie's 263 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 1: listening or Melbournians will probably get this more. It feels 264 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 1: almost a bit Sorrento vibes or Portsy or Queenscliff vibes, 265 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 1: where the shops are all like kind of high end, 266 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 1: but they've got the beach vibe, you know what I mean. 267 00:14:56,440 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 1: They're like a comba of like upmarket Luk's Seed vibe, 268 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 1: you know, seed heritage to that brand. So it feels 269 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: very like beachy, but rich beachy, but luxury beachy. 270 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 2: That's what I got. The vibe was. 271 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 1: It was really fun though I've never been in my life, 272 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 1: so it was a good experience. 273 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 2: I highly recommend it. 274 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 1: Really easy to get parks, so we did that, and 275 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 1: then afterwards we drove to Malibu Farm, which was on 276 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 1: the PR, which is pretty iconic and famous and heaps 277 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 1: of people posts from there. I've never been before, so 278 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 1: basically that's like a little PR You've got restaurant as 279 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: you come on to the pier, and then you've got 280 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 1: a cafe down the end. The restaurant queue, because obviously 281 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 1: everything is social distance and there's limited numbers that the 282 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 1: line was like what looked like a two hour wait, 283 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: So we just decided to like walk up to the cafe, 284 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: get a vibe.

That was definitely more 300 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 1: like peach and probably coconut water or something.

We ate out on a like 321 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:33,159 Speaker 1: decking and we're looking out over the ocean. That's the 322 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 1: first time I really miss Byron Bay because I was 323 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 1: back really close to the ocean. I haven't seen the 324 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,680 Speaker 1: ocean for so long because I'm living in Lost Philis, 325 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,400 Speaker 1: so I'm at the base of Griffith Park, so it's 326 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 1: more mountains and hills and hiking, which I love, but 327 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 1: I had don't see much of the ocean.

It's probably 435 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:33,399 Speaker 1: just the butter and delicious sugar. Not gluten free, by 436 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 1: the way, just so you know, this last week, I've 437 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 1: been on so many fun adventures, but I've totally cheated 438 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 1: with gluten and paid for it a little bit. Like 439 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 1: I've had really upset stomach when I do cheat. But 440 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:48,640 Speaker 1: I also think, like I flip between, like I really 441 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 1: want to experience this thing mindfully and have this memory 442 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 1: and you know, I'm so lucky to even be here 443 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 1: right now in La And so I do that and 444 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: then I go into blown health mode after story in 445 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 1: my life. So yeah, so some of this stuff I'll 446 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:06,879 Speaker 1: be talking about won't be gluten free, just so you know. 447 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 2: And I'm okay with that. 448 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 1: So the day that we did Venice or ps. In Venice, 449 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 1: we'll like nearly at the end of our walk and 450 00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 1: literally there was like a kitten cafe literally like so 451 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:23,640 Speaker 1: there's no food, but like you pay to hang out 452 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: with the kitten free for kittens for either half an 453 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 1: hour or an hour, and all the money goes to 454 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 1: helping homeless kittens. It's really cool. It's like full blown 455 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 1: for charity, for a not profit, and yeah, you go 456 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 1: and you hang. So you hang with a kitten for 457 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:41,359 Speaker 1: half an hour. I think it's thirty dollars, or a 458 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,439 Speaker 1: full hour is like thirty five or forty, so it 459 00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 1: makes more sense to the full hour. And yeah, you're 460 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 1: just chill in there with kittens, literally just hang out 461 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:52,919 Speaker 1: with them and they just like walk and crawl all 462 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 1: over you. We nearly did it, and then I remembered 463 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 1: I'm allergic to cats, so that stopped us from doing it. 464 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,640 Speaker 1: But it looked really, really cute, and people were lined 465 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: up around the corner to do it. The other line 466 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 1: that I saw around the corner was for Salt and Straw, 467 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: which is a really iconic ice cream shop here which 468 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:13,719 Speaker 1: I have tried, but I didn't go to the one 469 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:17,159 Speaker 1: in Venice, so I'll backtrack a little bit. So after Venice, 470 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 1: we went to a place called Alafante, which is in 471 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,920 Speaker 1: Santa Monica. Shout out to my mate Joe Wicks, the 472 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:25,440 Speaker 1: body coach, who told me that I have to visit 473 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 1: and I did. The menu is incredible. I tried the 474 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 1: house cocktail and I got it on gin.

And then we got whipped eggplant dip 478 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 1: with this like pewter bread. But the pewter bread was 479 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: like all fluffy and delicious. The whipped eggplant was insane. 480 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 1: It was almost like homeless vibes, but not homeless vibes. 481 00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 1: And then we got vodka pasta, which I've never had before. 482 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 2: But I keep seeing on TikTok and Insta. 483 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:07,719 Speaker 1: And then we got oyster mushroom pizza delicious, and in 484 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 1: America you're allowed to take like the food home as well, 485 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:11,719 Speaker 1: so I took the pizza home and I ended up 486 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 1: having the three leftover slices for dinner that night. On 487 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 1: the way home, we dropped into Santa Monica Boulevard and 488 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 1: we did go to Salt and Straw, this famous Everyone 489 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 1: keeps telling me to go here. 490 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 2: It's this very very famous ice cream shop. 491 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:31,879 Speaker 1: I got a little cup with two flavors in.

Famous golfer loves a combo of iced 671 00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:36,840 Speaker 1: tea because iced tea here is not sweet usually, and 672 00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 1: so if you mix it with half lemonade half iced tea, 673 00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:43,440 Speaker 1: it's like a combination of sweet and refreshing. Got an 674 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 1: Arnold Palmer at Jones on Third. It was really nice. 675 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 1: It wasn't too sweet at all. Had a meeting earlier 676 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 1: that day at Air one and shout out to Rene Bar. 677 00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:56,759 Speaker 1: She told me to try the peanut butter smoothie. It 678 00:36:56,880 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 1: was delicious. It just tasted like liquefied peanut, but it 679 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:05,120 Speaker 1: was really really good. Oh yeah, how did I forget 680 00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:10,759 Speaker 1: this food adventure? So it was my friend Darren's birthday 681 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 1: he loves a treat from Magnolia Bakery, which is famous 682 00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 1: in New York, but I didn't know, but there is 683 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:21,720 Speaker 1: one on West third Street here and it's called Magnolia 684 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 1: Bakery also. But he apparently loved this little like key 685 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 1: Lime cheesecake, which no longer exists. So I went in 686 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 1: trying to get this key Lime cheesecake, but I ended 687 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:33,880 Speaker 1: up getting two little birthday cake cupcakes. And then of 688 00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:35,839 Speaker 1: course I was like, I don't want to miss out 689 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:39,280 Speaker 1: on this, so I got a pecan caramel cheesecake to try. 690 00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 2: That was incredible. Ten out of ten. 691 00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:44,560 Speaker 1: Everyone told me to try the banana pudding. I'm gonna 692 00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:46,160 Speaker 1: be ansest with you. I didn't love it. I don't 693 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:48,399 Speaker 1: like cream. I'm not a whipped cream girl at all. 694 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:51,160 Speaker 1: If it was ice cream, different ballgame. But basically, this 695 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:54,920 Speaker 1: banana pudding has got like banana cake mixed through it, 696 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:57,000 Speaker 1: cookcake mixed to it, and then like cream and it's 697 00:37:57,000 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 1: all folded together into this pudding. But everybody loves it. 698 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 1: So if you like whipped cream, banana, sweet stuff, and cake, 699 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:08,239 Speaker 1: I'm sure you'd love it. I just don't like whip 700 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:10,600 Speaker 1: cream for some reason. If it was on an ice 701 00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:12,480 Speaker 1: cream base.

I should have got that 707 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 1: for Darren because that was really fresh. But it was 708 00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 1: really tiny, like a little like slither thing. But that 709 00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:33,680 Speaker 1: was really yummy.

I'm sure 844 00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:01,000 Speaker 1: you probably know there's a lot of in America at 845 00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:02,640 Speaker 1: the moment, Like I think it's sitting at one hundred 846 00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 1: thousand mark and three thousand a day in La County, 847 00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:09,160 Speaker 1: so the numbers are high. So I am just making 848 00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:11,839 Speaker 1: sure that if I am going to go or eat out, 849 00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:15,400 Speaker 1: I eat outside, I don't go inside. Like I really 850 00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:17,400 Speaker 1: feel a bit uncomfortable when I eat inside, so I 851 00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 1: don't do it anymore. And obviously we're masked anytime that 852 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:25,800 Speaker 1: we go into a space, and that's just like across 853 00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:28,279 Speaker 1: the board, Like you walk into shops and they'll have 854 00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:31,279 Speaker 1: like a little container of masks at the door, and 855 00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:33,799 Speaker 1: you dispose of masks and use take one walk in. 856 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:35,839 Speaker 1: And a lot of places here won't let you enter 857 00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:39,080 Speaker 1: until you've hand sanitized, like and they'll offer that service 858 00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:42,239 Speaker 1: to you. Acting school, they take your temperature before you 859 00:46:42,320 --> 00:46:48,520 Speaker 1: go in. You're fully masked as well. So yeah, it's 860 00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:51,879 Speaker 1: like they're taking so many precautions here. And I want 861 00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:54,200 Speaker 1: to be really transparent with you, Like I know on 862 00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:56,959 Speaker 1: Instagram and stuff, it looks like, oh, you're living the dream, 863 00:46:57,040 --> 00:46:59,640 Speaker 1: You're having the best time, and I am really fortunate 864 00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:01,600 Speaker 1: and I am really really lucky.

That said, 867 00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:10,960 Speaker 1: COVID is very real and people are still dying and 868 00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:13,879 Speaker 1: people are still getting sick. One thing I will say, 869 00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:17,480 Speaker 1: I'm since i've been here, oh look at this little 870 00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:20,040 Speaker 1: add on this little asterisk at the end. I've been 871 00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:25,040 Speaker 1: watching Gray's Anatomy. So full disclosure, I watched Virgin River, 872 00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:28,279 Speaker 1: which I know some of you will have seen, and 873 00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:31,480 Speaker 1: the lead dude, it is super handsome. He's like half 874 00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:34,160 Speaker 1: I think it's Kiwi or Aussie or a bit of both. 875 00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:37,080 Speaker 1: I don't know, but I'm pretty sure it's Kiwi. And 876 00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:39,879 Speaker 1: I did that thing you know when you're watching something 877 00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:42,799 Speaker 1: and then you're like, oh, who's this actor And he's 878 00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:44,680 Speaker 1: in Gray's Anatomy. So I was like, oh, okay, And 879 00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:46,680 Speaker 1: Gray's Anatomy is on Netflix here. I don't know if 880 00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:49,920 Speaker 1: it is in Australia, but all seventeen seasons are and 881 00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:52,759 Speaker 1: I started at season thirteen because he was in it 882 00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,840 Speaker 1: and his character's long gone now and I'm fully invested 883 00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:59,800 Speaker 1: into Grey's Anatomy and I've just started season seventeen and 884 00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:05,160 Speaker 1: how crazy like episode one it says like the very 885 00:48:05,200 --> 00:48:09,080 Speaker 1: side of episode one April twenty twenty, and so this 886 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:12,840 Speaker 1: entire season that I'm I don't know, four episodes or 887 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:20,320 Speaker 1: three episodes into watching is literally set COVID time, pandemic time, 888 00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:24,160 Speaker 1: So it's really interesting to see, Like in Australia, I think, 889 00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:27,040 Speaker 1: you know, we were so lucky with it, and I 890 00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:29,799 Speaker 1: understand that the Australia's in a lot of Australia's in 891 00:48:29,840 --> 00:48:33,080 Speaker 1: lockdown right now, but like seeing how scary it was 892 00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:36,960 Speaker 1: in America, seeing the load on the hospital system, seeing that, 893 00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:38,520 Speaker 1: and I know that this is like. 894 00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:42,360 Speaker 2: A fictional show, but it was. 895 00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:45,760 Speaker 1: It's really interesting to see like how quickly COVID takes 896 00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:48,760 Speaker 1: people and how you can go from being like asymptomatic 897 00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:52,480 Speaker 1: to really sick really fast, like in two to three hours, 898 00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:55,799 Speaker 1: and like seemingly healthy people are still getting knocked out 899 00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:56,200 Speaker 1: by it. 900 00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:58,520 Speaker 2: So yeah, it just made me. 901 00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:01,319 Speaker 1: It's really real to kind of watch it, and I 902 00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:03,000 Speaker 1: was like, oh am I going to be comfortable watching it. 903 00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:06,520 Speaker 1: But it's I think as well, in interesting to see 904 00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:11,960 Speaker 1: a perception of what America went through from So for 905 00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:14,040 Speaker 1: people that don't know Gray's Anatomy, I'm pretty sure it's 906 00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:19,200 Speaker 1: a Seattle based hospital show drama. Of course, there you go. 907 00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:22,040 Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm really fascinated by it. And season seventeen 908 00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 1: is all set COVID times really interesting. I don't have 909 00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:28,800 Speaker 1: and everyone is masked, like, every actor is masked, every 910 00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:32,720 Speaker 1: everyone's in those ppe suits. Everyone's got those K ninety 911 00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:41,080 Speaker 1: five masks on, specifically temperature checks swabs, And I'm like, wow, 912 00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:43,520 Speaker 1: like because they would have had to shoot it, I imagine 913 00:49:43,440 --> 00:49:45,279 Speaker 1: in the last six months for it to be out. 914 00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:45,520 Speaker 2: Now. 915 00:49:45,760 --> 00:49:47,160 Speaker 1: I think it only came out like a couple of 916 00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:50,360 Speaker 1: months ago this season. Maybe they shot it like towards 917 00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:53,439 Speaker 1: the end of last year, but I imagine it would 918 00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:56,040 Speaker 1: have been really interesting to shoot, like and scenes that 919 00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:58,720 Speaker 1: are a bit more social distanced, which is really interesting 920 00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:01,239 Speaker 1: because you know, we use to seeing two people in 921 00:50:01,280 --> 00:50:04,680 Speaker 1: a frame, but you're seeing a lot of single framed 922 00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:07,200 Speaker 1: shots and I imagine that would have been part of 923 00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:11,680 Speaker 1: the protocol to protect the actors. Very interesting and super 924 00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:16,040 Speaker 1: fascinating and I'm already excited to watch another episode tonight.
