Well, hello, and welcome to Dwell Hello. It's a watcher Crappin's House Hunter's podcast. How are you doing today, Ronnie? So well, Ben, because we are back with Dwell. Hello. I know. I didn't even say my name. Say my name, say my name.

My name is Ben Mandelker. That is Ronnie Karen. Better say his name. We're here. You can never go wrong with a little Destiny's chat. I know, exactly. We really cannot. But we are here today to talk some house hunters. Thanks for for subscribing on Wondry Plus. We always appreciate that. Today's episode is Househunters Volume 7, Season 169, Episode 2, Dreaming in Los Angeles. And this is one that we found, actually,

because we thought it would be fun to do an L.A. based episode. It's actually really, it's actually more appropriate than ever before because our own Ronnie Karam is coming back to L.A. So I will be returning to Los Angeles tomorrow, as a matter of fact. I'm collecting my clothes literally to, I'm collecting all the old Navy I can to literally come back to Los Angeles. And these people are talking about leaving West Hollywood and like how scary that is. And guess where I'm leaving West Hollywood? I mean, I'm leaving Texas.

But my last home in L.A. was West Hollywood. So I'm like, should I live in a different neighborhood than West Hollywood? Now, in my example, yes, because people were pooping on my sidewalk, literally outside, and it was getting a little methy over there. And by that, I don't mean messy, I mean messy, but with meth. Okay, guys, those of you who don't know what that is, gives you very good cheekbones. That's the best thing about it. Don't do meth.

Okay. Or did you possibly mean it's getting very method actory over there? Like, they just open up another cell ad load down the street. No, actually, I think it's, it's, It's less method-y because didn't they close Stella Adler or is that still happening? I'm not sure. There isn't what cell Adler is over there, right? Wasn't there?

Yes. It was by that 7-Eleven. Yeah. The burrito place. Naturally. There's another acting studio up on that block that I used to live on Fairfax. And there were always actors out there going over their lines and talking to themselves. Yeah.

And I would just walk past with Beeler and be like, if you've got a chance, you're great. God, what is? Doing great, kid. Keep it out. So we're here in the land of Riz here doing, again, this is, I know I said it, but let me say it again, House Hunters volume seven, season 169 episode two, dreaming in Los Angeles. I found this on the Max app. I think that's where you have to find it. It's not on YouTube TV.

Just look for dreaming in Los Angeles and everything should follow from there. So we open up and we have a cat who's not a cat, although they have a cat, but her name is cat. She's Australian. And we have Joe, who's a guy from New Jersey with a ponytail. And they're in their apartment, their tiny apartment in West Hollywood. And we hear Linda who says, Los Angeles couple, Kat and Joe, are ready to trade their tiny apartment in West Hollywood for more space. But it doesn't matter how much space they have, that body odor will get to cat's nose no matter what.

You think he's smelly? He looks very smelly. Why do you think he's smelly? Because he has long hair. Long hair, beard. I don't know. I just got like a smell vibe from her, from him. Here's what the vibe I get from him,

eyebrowy. He's very eyebrowing. He has like eyebrows. Did you notice his eyebrow movements? He just like kept moving his eyebrows up and down really fast. Like every time he talks, he moves his eyebrow. He's like a wee character, you know, on the Wii Nintendo Wii. His eyebrows just keep moving when he talks.

Unlike when we were in Dublin and if you said he was like a Wii character, but oh, he's a wee character. Oh, what a little wee character. That's the politically correct term we use these days. days. Also, can I just say, do not skip Botox appointments, people. Today is my Botox appointment. I chose seeing a goddamn baby. My cousin has a baby who's so cute. I'm leaving town. I wanted to see this baby. And so I didn't go get my Botox. And look at me. I could do his eyebrow thing. And I'm mortified. You know, keep it up. I'm going to look 20 years older by tomorrow.

If you have a Botox appointment, fuck babies. Go do your Botox appointment. Listen, Ronnie, you're moving to Los Angeles. They do Botox shots at like the kiosk like at the Pearson Magida. Okay, you'll be fine. Just go to like that go to that mall over there and on like Woodman Fashion Square or whatever. Oh, it's already beginning. The Valley shaming I'm going to get from no, that was actually in praise. That's a very delightful mall. Isn't it called the gallery? The gallery is in

Glendale which by the way, appropriate for this episode. What's the Woodman? Woodman's a big avenue in the valley and I believe there's a hold on there's a mall. Woodman In Valley, Los Angeles. Oh, I only know the Galleria one. Yes, Westfield Fashion Square. Oh, Westfield. Yeah, of course I know that one.

Yeah, yeah. Okay. So it's my new hood. So I'm going to be there all the time. Anybody want to hang out at the Westfield? Give me call. Give me call. I'll be there.

Okay. So Joe may or may not be smelly. I don't know. I just decided that he was. In the spirit of a Linda joke. So they're in a large bathroom. And we see them looking at places. And he's like, that's a large shower.

It's like, it's a big shower. We could put a pony in there and then bathe the pony. In the shower. It's very, very big. I'm hilarious because I'm Australian. Kat's going for a Spanish-style home with absolutely no projects other than her husband. I do not want to live in the projects. Do you understand?

I don't want any drive-by shootings, even if they are with glue guns. Got it? I didn't say I was opposed to projects. I just don't want to leave it the projects. So shot of a house exterior. And cats like, oh, this definitely has curb appeal. I love curb appeal. Cats a lot.

Can I just say cats a lot. She's found a very mousy, eyebrowy person to be with. She's a lot. She's abrasive. I'm going to say. I'm just going to go out and say it now. Cat's an abrasive person. And she doesn't know a lot of things.

So she just uses words that she's heard many times on house hunters like, Kube appeal. But then they don't know what a shower nozzle is later, and I'm embarrassed for them. And then they act like the house is tacky for having a certain kind of shower nozzle they've never seen. They're like, oh, really? That's a shower nozzle. Really? Good job, losers. What is this the project?

So, yeah, this definitely has Kube appeal for me. By the way, none of these houses that we're about to say. have any curb appeal. I just want to put that out there right now. They have like curb stump appeal. You like literally want to curb stump these houses. They're hideous. Every one of them. So that Linda says, but Joe's angling for an older craftsman fixer and hopefully a stick of deodorant too. So they go to a large blue house and Richard's there, the real estate agent. And now they're driving around, you know, and he's like, okay, is your classic craftsman. And Joe's like, oh my God, look at that. He goes, it's quite.

old? And cat goes, how old is quoy? Oh, are you going to fucking old shame a craftsman, cat? You tacky ass. It's supposed to be old as a craftsman, cat. He goes, um, it's over a hundred years old, which is so funny since we just got back from our little European jaunt, where like, uh, like a house that's 100 years old is literally considered new construction. They're like, oh, that's the nouveau rich in that 100 year old house. So what sort of feudal system was happening when this was built? Oh, it was built. In the 1900s? Oh, how modern? So, like, was this house built when Charlamagne was coming through?

Oh, wait, there were actually cars? I mean, this is just like right off the house factory. It's like gross, old things. So then we see, dun dun dun dun dun dun dun da-na-na-na-na-na, which is both my favorite song and the opening. And then we see exterior shots of Los Angeles. Skyline, Beach, Freeway, a lady shooting up in front of a T.J. Max. Stella Adler Theater closing down. Just someone's putting out that foreclose sign on Stella Adler.

Someone walking to 7-Eleven, I'm here for acting class. Oh, next door. Next door. It's a burrito shop now. It's at the brino shop. It's like, yes, welcome. Welcome to Stella Adler's burritos. We were doing an acting. Symposium, but now we sell burritos. So please. So let's go to Cat and Joe in their West Hollywood apartment. Did we ever get proof that they were in West Hollywood? I feel like we never really got to see their street.

I was trying to know, right? I felt like we actually saw, I think they were actually near where you were, because it said Fairfax. They actually showed a shot of that house that used to be at the top of the hill on Fairfax. You know, they tore that down. The top of the hill. Oh, that big round house? That big round house that was torn down and they built something new there. they showed it. They had some archival footage. But they were showing like lots of Fairfax

oriented B-roll, which had me believe that maybe they were in that area. Oh, so they were at my old place. That's cute. So I see why they want to make. Wait, there I am. Am I walking Bueller? Outside their window? There I am. Pointing at a lady shooting up right in front of the Whole Foods. That's this crazy. Full circle. So Joe's carrying laundry and they're talking about yoga because they're in L.A., you know, so, you know, that's what you talk about. How was yoga? I don't even go to yoga. I still have people ask me that constantly, because that's where we live. Yeah, and he's like, he has this little, little thing of laundry, and he goes in for a kiss, and she goes, oh, don't even bother with that. I mean, the kiss, like, don't even. The relationships would have been long dead.

But also, I mean, there's like five people down in the laundry room. So you can't do laundry. Also, kiss them. I'd really rather you just kiss them. So he's like, he's like, I work as the director of business development for a camera rental company in Los Angeles. And she goes, and I work as a writer and as a script consultant who likes to tell tales to myself that I've actually married someone who is successful. I've actually given him the title of his job to make it sound more interesting. A director of business development for a camera rental company. What does that mean? He stands at a desk.

There's already business development. People make films there and you sell cameras to them. Could you just say you sell cameras, sir? Basically, he stands at a desk and people come in and he lends them cameras and he holds their licenses for them. That's what he does. Oh, God. Okay, so talking about laundry jobs. And she's like, Shomsky.

Because that's their cat. Their cat's name is actually Rome Chomsky, which is hilarious. It was Rome Chomsky. I'm just dumb. I was like, should I just pretend I know who this is? I was going to, but then I got really tired. I realized as soon as I said it, I was like, oh, because Nome Chomsky is like, Noam Chomsky.

He's a writer. He's a fan, is a super famous linguist who's like, like a super, super, super famous, like in academia or whatever. Did he have big teeth? And he cannot lie. I don't. Oh. He cannot tell a lie.

Chomsky, he's just Chomsky. Nome Chomsky. I think he's still alive. No, I did he's a professor at Stanford. Look at him. He looks like, he looks like Matt Marr. When Matt Marr turns like 88, this is what he will look like. Oh, you're looking him up?

That's no fair. Noam Chomsky. He's 95 years old. I wrote nom chonky. Noam Chonky. Look, he doesn't he look just like, so Matt Marr, our friend from reality gay, is this is literally like what I think Matt will look like when he's when he's 95 and I'm not

oh yeah I can see that yeah um I'm gonna send that to Matt he remains a leading critic of US foreign policy contemporary capitalism US involvement in Israel's role in the Israel-Palestine conflict and dot dot dot dot let me tell you what dot dot dot means closing this window because I'm too stupid to understand what this person is about oh my god I'm gonna close that and go back to my house hunter's swirls. And there's fresh news about him today. He had a stroke and he's recovering. Did he really? But apparently, did he really? On the same day that we're talking about No, Chomsky the cat, really? No. He's apparently he suffered it last year and has been in Brazil. Okay, well, that's not breaking news then. Stop telling me we have breaking down. But there's only

announced today. You're like making ripples. We're going to show up on Google News like Google News, Ronnie Kiram and Ben Mandel go break news about Gnome Chomsky. Just kidding, they didn't. Okay. Well, the point is the cat's name is Rome Chomsky. I forget what the dog's name was, but obviously it was not given us good of a pun. Chomsky, darling, Chomsky. Okay, so they're feeding their cat basically as a point.

So cat, who has a cat? This is crazy. Cat's like, I'm from Perth, Western Australia, and I've traveled all over the world. I've been around the world And I can't believe I wound up in this shitty little condo So we see shots of cat all over the world We see she's like standing in front of a McDonald's in in Australia Standing in front of a McDonald's in England

Standing in front of a McDonald's and I don't know I feel like that's how cat travels Cat's tacky Cat's tacky as hell there I'm saying it I'm fully on cat's side in this recap And I have to say I just feel bad for her because she's She's gone and traveled to all these beautiful places,

and now she's stuck in a cramped-ass apartment with her man. And this cat and a dog, oh, the dog is Maisel. So you know they're marvelous Miss Maisel fans, which I don't know how I've heard about that. You're not a big Miss Maisel fan? You don't, what are you not like ya-can? I'm a funny lady, a funny lady, I tell you. I think I watched two episodes and drove me nuts and I had to stop watching. But I also don't like Ted Lassau.

What can I say? You know, a Ted Lassow? I won't watch Ted Laso. Even though I know the guy who makes Ted Lassau and he's like actually a really brilliant, funny, wonderful person. I'm so glad he became like so amazingly famous. Like I'm so happy for him. But I can't watch a show about positivity.

I'm just not built for it. That show all their marketing is like, it's the most positive show on television. I was like, well, dying of fire. Congrats, Brandon. But not watching your show. I like, maybe like maybe I give it another shot. I just didn't find it funny. and like my least favorite thing

is like when a guy in a shiny golf shirt in a situation goes, it's just like in Ted Lassow, I'm like, oh gosh, like when I was in Amsterdam, I was on a little canal, like a little boat going through the canals, little tour.

And they're like, and you may recognize this location because this is where someone fell off of a bridge on Ted Lassow. And like, I remember that Ted Lassow. They all started sharing their favorite Ted Lasson moments. I was like, stop it. Everyone stop it.

We're in Europe. Back to Portedly. Oh, yeah. Yeah, people who suggest Ted Lasso to me, I don't really trust those people. Like I don't, they're not people I'm ever like, oh my God, I can't wait to see you at the dinner party soon. You know what I mean? There are usually people I'm like, of course, of course that's your show. Um, do you believe that I really love the guy who made it?

Because I really do. Actually, my friend is also, but he's not listening to this. Let me tell you, whoever made Ted Lasso, Brandon, is not sitting around listening to Dwell. Hello. You know why? Because he's being a cheap bitch and he's not going to support me either. So you know what? But when you start listening to Dwell Hello, I will start watching Ted Lassow, person who probably does me for remember me from improv 10 years ago.

Boom. My friend, my friend Sarah, is also friends with him and has just the nicest things to say about him. Just the nicest thing. He really is a lovely person. Okay. So he does not know who I am, I guarantee you. You don't watch his show. He doesn't listen to our podcast.

It's all good. Yeah, so fuck that guy. So fuck him and his positivity. Okay. I don't need that on TV. All this is a dog named Maisel. Or her. Mrs. Maisel can go too.

She got fired, right? Maisel. She, well, it's over. It's cancer. It's done. No longer marvelous. It died. It's no longer mazelous.

Marvelous Mrs. Mason. Never mind. Who cares. So Katz lived in places and Joe has not. So she tells us her story. She's like, I've lived in lots of places. The film industries in L.A.

So I thought I'll just come over and do a little bit of study in L.A. And then I met this guy. And I never left. Would you? I feel like a stick of deodorant just needed. You know what I mean? Yeah, I'm originally from New Jersey and I moved here around eight years ago and turns out it was a great choice.

She goes, yes. And I just really hope we can find something that has something that's going to eliminate the dishes issue and the laundry issue and the you issue because my Saturdays are just like dishes and laundry and wishing you were gone. And I just really have. hate it. I hate it. Two things. One way to get half your dishes is to get rid of Joe. So there's some free advice. That will cut that down. Okay. And then another thing, you only do your dishes on Saturday. Is that what I'm hearing, Katz-say? Because that's disgusting, Kat, okay? And I'm not a huge

fan already. And you need help with that. You need to do your dishes every day. Okay? Because, well, you know, we live in a very small apartment and there's no air conditioning. and there's no storage and I don't have a parking spot and there's a cat, there's a dog, there's a pile of dishes, there's laundry that we tried to do on Saturdays, but so does everyone else not building. What I'm trying to say is, um, I've made a huge mistake. I went from traveling the world to living in this shit hole and I don't know what to do with myself anymore.

So she's like, oh God, we need to buy a house. That is it. I need more pets. No, you don't. Okay? No, you don't need more pets. You're already annoying everybody in the apartment enough. Now you're going to go to a house where you have more space and you're going to get so many pets.

You're still going to annoy the neighbors. You're just that kind of person, aren't you, cat, aren't you? He's like, well, you know what? I actually saw some places that are like, they're a little older, like a little more craftsman style, some older stuff. Maybe, you know, give me a chance to do a little work on it or something. All right. Work. Joe and work.

What a concept. I'd love to see those things linked someday. Oh, what are you going to be in charge of business development of projects? Oh, my husband. I'm a hammer. Of projects. Oh, look at my husband. My husband, Joe, he's executive vice president of hammering nails into steaks.

So, yeah, he wants to do projects. And she's like, you know what I want? More Spanish style. Something that feels solid, right? Something that, you know, feels insulated. Something that makes me feel like I'm in like a cool California house. But spoiler alert, they don't find anything like that. No, literally nothing.

I know, I just want something Spanish style, which was actually what I was to look for in my men, and then, well, Joe. This happened. Project happened over here. Executive Vice President of Disappointment over here. In charge of business development of stink pie over there. I need some business affairs, take away the business. So, I just tell. Shopski, get my keys.

Chomsky's like a very smart cat writing papers in the corner. Oh, so he's like, all right, yeah, you know, I just want to, she goes, okay, so we need to get out of this mess and we need to just start our life together. You don't need a project. Right, Joe. And he goes, okay, I'm just, I'm sure we can find something that, you know, I love, you love, you love. She goes, oh, you're not going to look for a fixer up, I promise me. He says, if we find something better, I'm a eyebrow, eyebrow, eyebrow, eyebrow, eyebrow, I'm definitely eyebrow, down to eyebrow look that way. Like, we'll just eyebrow, eyebrow, keep our eyebrow options. Do you need help, Joe? Someone go help Joe. I know. He was like, sorry, I just took a class at Stella Adler.

And I learned that this is what you're supposed to do when you're showing that you're feeling things. Well, guess what? You're also holding a burrito menu, so I want you to reconsider it when you took your acting places. This one has French fries in it. Yeah, well, they said if you really want to emote, you have to tell people about

specials of the day. So she's like, all right, we're keeping our options open. Or what, business development? So he's like, yeah, we need a guest room and we need more space and a guest room. Hey, nobody coming to visit Joe and Katner guest room. Like, who are we getting? They've got 97 animals. They're going to have 97 animals.

Nobody wants to stay with you. Save yourself the money. I don't need to be in their guest room with Chomsky on the edge of my bed giving a lecture. Okay. Like a cat lecture. He's like, well, here's my opinion on. Israel and Palestine. Burr,

Pras. Bokane. Capitalism, am I right? So, and then Kat goes, and also we need to live in a house where we can actually put on more than one appliance at the same time. That would be nice. I mean, as much as I appreciate,

the lights turning off whenever I see your face, it would be nice to microwave something and have the dishwasher running. I'm so sorry. You're not going to find that in West Hollywood. You're just not going to. For me, every, you turn on the air conditioner, the microwave blows everything out. You turn it on the microwave. You literally can have one thing on at a time in West Hollywood.

That's just how it goes. Ariana and Tom's place like that on Vanderpump rules. Every house in West Hollywood is like that. The poorer you are, the richer you are. They all work the same. Sorry. Yeah. So they want a spacious kitchen and all for the grand budget of up to $850,000,

which means here is a nice little raft with a hot pot that you can go sit in the Pacific ocean on because that's how much is what you're going to get for $150,000 in this area. Enjoy Valencia. Enjoy your studio apartment. Enjoy the box you're going to live under the roller coasters at Magic Mountain in Valencia. 100%. So Joe's like, well, or we are now eyebrows is the best location we could really ask for, you know, because housing in this area is not easy.

I mean, you know, unless it's literally right. Right here, we're stepping over it right now. Okay, just stepped over our house. Okay, well, you know what? We're right in the middle of things in West Hollywood. Right in the middle of things. There's a gay bar there. That's great.

There's a whole foods. There's another gay bar. There's a burrito shot. Still low, still low, still low. Still low. Still low. You know, it's a decent commute to my work, and it's only about a half hour or so from where we are right now.

It's like, oh, no, no, just wouldn't it be great if your commute was actually like triple the length of that? Just so much more time away from you in all half. And he's like, you know what I'd love for you to have? A better mute. A commute? No, just to mute. Take out the calm, all right?

Just keep the second syllable, all right? It's like, yeah, I mean, if we could just like not give up the walkability of West Hollywood, but find somewhere that, like, we can walk to places in the same way, that would be great. Okay, well, how about you walk off the Santa Monica Pier and just never stop? Here's what I want. I want to be able to, I want the same walkability. but not in West Hollywood, just as much dick. Is that possible?

Can we find that somewhere? So now we see now they're getting into a car with Richard. They're Richard, their realtor. First up, their Agent Richards showing them a single family home in the neighborhood of Highland Park, about 15 miles from where they currently live and way too cool for their haircuts. Now, just so you guys know, 15 miles is 20 hours in L.A. time.

You don't even know. Okay, to get to Highland Park from West Hollywood, you have to go through surface streets. Oh, I guess you could go down to the 10. You cannot get there with less than one highway. You have to change highways. You either have to take the 10 to the 5, which probably you have to take to the 2,

or you go across surface streets to the 101, then get off and then go up through Echo Park to the 2. It's like, or you take the 110. Oh, you take the 10 to the 110. There's no easy way to get to Highland Park. And all these hipsters have moved out there and they're excited. They love it. They're excited because they move out there.

And they want you to come visit. And I just feel like if you have to go on multiple highways to visit someone, you just should stop being friends with them. It's too far. Yeah. It's like location. What do they call it? Like location undesirability or whatever, the incompatibility. Location.

You know what I mean. But yeah, it is far. And I keep getting confused because there's something else. There's another park, right? in um there's like south of west hollywood there's glasel park oh south of west hollywood a little bit east and south of west hollywood i feel like there's another neighborhood called something park there's um park labrea oh no that's like la la land that's where la la you used to live um disgusting but so did our friend annabel so that was that was cute there's good memories and bad

actually i don't have memories of la la i don't fucking know her why i'm acting like i have memories here's what i know she used to poop she used to poop out Her dog used to poop and she didn't clean it up. I did hear that. Annabelle? No, Lala. Oh. I don't know who I heard it from.

I don't know anybody he used to live there. Did I just out somebody? So that was shitty of me. I really didn't mean to do that. So anyway, I get Highland Park confused with some other park, Windsor Park. I don't know. Oh yeah, there's Windsor Park. Windsor Park.

Something right by there. There's a lot of parks. And so when I'm looking for places, I'm like, oh my God, you know, that's great. I'll go there. And then I look at the map. And I'm like, why the fuck is this 30 hours from my desired location, which you know my desired location, right? The Old Navy at the Beverly Center. I'm like, how long does it take to get there?

A long time, Highland Park. It's very far. But you're going to have access to Valley Old Navy's, which really kick ass compared to the Beverly Center, old navies. Yeah, you know, living in Texas, I got used to the suburbs. I'm really in the suburbs here. I'm buy a home goods. I'm buy a whole food. I'm by everything great.

And I have bigger parking spaces. So now coming back to L.A., I'm more prepared to be like a more suburb-y type of boy. Okay. So I'm ready. I'm ready for the bigger parking spaces and the hotter summers. Got it. I can't wait for that extra 10 degrees of heat we're going to get in the valley. Yeah.

And that extra 10 degrees of cold you'll get in the winter. So anyway, these two. So Richard is taking these two to Highland Park. Honestly, as soon as he said Highland Park, I was like, these were going to move there because that's the trajectory. When you see a couple like this in L.A., especially in West Hollywood, their trajectory is always Highland Park. So I was like, that's what's what's going to happen.

I don't mean to out you in any way, but I just feel like you feel this way. I don't know if this is how you feel. But I feel like you look at this guy and you go, he's smelly. He's going to live in Highland Park or Echo Park. Pick one of those. Echo Park or Highland Park? No, I can tell he was the Highland Parker. Echo Park, he wasn't, so he wasn't quite, like, hipster enough to do Echo Park.

But he was sort of like, dingy enough to do Highland Park. And it's not that Highland Park is dingy. I'm just saying that's where dingy people go to gentrify themselves. Okay. So Richard's like, well, I grew up in this neighborhood. My family's been here since the 60s. So holler to gentrification, am I right?

I'm so glad to be here for the downfall of this neighborhood and helping it happen. Guys, get in the backseat. We are kicking abuela out of her home. I know. All right. And so they're driving. through and cats like, well, I did see a couple of cafes back there. It's so nice that there's one or two restaurants in this neighborhood. And Richard's like, oh, yeah. And there's a really

cool bowling alley, some nice bars. Like all sorts of really cool stuff is popping up here. What are my parents trying to conceive me? Like, who else would this sound good to? Hey, guys, there's also a bowling alley in a bar. I was like, well, Jesus, thanks for just giving my fucking biography to the world. There is actually a really nice bowling alley. We saw Tom Sandeval go there on a flashback date with tea this season. It's like very ornate and old-timey. I went there. You went there.

I know you went there because you told me about it. And then I went there once. I went there once after seeing a one-woman show by Isabella Rosalini a block away. That's Highland Park. Oh, my God. I remember you telling me about that show. That's Highland Park right there.

Isabella Rosalini. Dom and I went and saw Isabella Rosalini doing a one-woman show on Valentine's Day. That was, then we went to that bowling alley. I've never been so hipster in my life. That is pretty hipster. I like that. I could be down for that kind of a hipster night.

I would do it. The last time I did, we went to a bar in Echo Park. And they don't, well, it's a bar, but they don't serve alcohol. Because a lot of places in Silver Lake and Echo Park only served beer and wine, which, like, what's an alcoholic to do? You know, it was very smelly. There was not a lot of deodorant. And we played Wii. There was, like, big Wii stations, and we would play tennis against each other.

And it was semi-fun. Okay, no one needed that story, but there you have it anyway. Nobody needs cat either or Tromsky, but they're on TV. So here we go. So they pull up to this house that's actually pretty big, and it is very blue. It is like Mets blue. It's the blue of the New York Mets. It's like a royal blue, and the door is actually orange, just like the New York Mets.

Clearly a Mets fan had taken over this house. I love blue. I actually really like this color blue, but I do not want my house looking like this. It is so wild. I thought it was so cool and like so on trend and such a nice big house in a trendy neighborhood for this price. I was like, score. I cannot believe Richard got them this house.

And then they walked up to and went, ew. That's pretty blue. And he's like, hi, you have $5 and I'm showing you a mansion. And then they walked to the door and then the husband's like, ew, the orange door, gross. I was like, you two are too ungrateful to live here. Go back to wherever you. Go back to Fairfax, you fucks. Well, what I could not understand is you have this house that is this shade of blue that is just so wild.

I mean, it's like just slightly darker than the text bubbles on like an iPhone, right? It's this big blue house. And then they walk up to the door that's orange. And Joe is like, ugh. This orange door is really hard to get by. Your house is blue. It's like crazy blue. And this is the easiest thing to change is.

that thing you were going to complain about. Yeah. So I'm just like so kind of we don't agree on the blue because I was like, I love the blue. What a bold choice. Also, I didn't, you know what I didn't like? I didn't like that they painted the stones. There was like little stone pillars. There are some stone elements that they kept that they painted blue. I was like, you painted the rocks blue? It was a flip. You know, it was like one of those flips where someone was like, oh my God, it would look great, that trendy blue that, you know that blue and they're like, yeah, blue. And then they just get the wrong blue and then they paint literally every single thing. You're like, okay, well, you just kind of killed the history of the house, but it's blue.

So yeah, it was very, it was literally, you know what it was? It was the blue of the blue man group. That's literally the blue back. It was blue screen blue, but like, it was blue man group blue. Like literally I was expecting the house to start banging a drum and paint a splatter all over the street. Yeah, you're right. So he's like, okay, well, this is your cat goes, I mean, what sort of star are we talking

about here? A none. You have none. That's what we're talking. about here. The style is that it's big and you can turn on multiple appliances. No, I mean, she has no style to ask what a crap, what kind of style is it? Like, she's like above it. Like, what kind of style is this? It's a fucking craftsman cat. I don't know why I hate cat, but I'm like furious with cat. She doesn't know what anything is. She doesn't know what a craftsman is.

She doesn't know what a fucking shower nozzle is. I can't with cat. And then looking down on it, like, what is this style? It's a fucking craftsman. You don't deserve to live here. So they go in, it's really big. Like they walk, it's just like, it's very, very large when they walk in. And they go into the kitchen and she's like, well, you know, I don't like these cupboards. They look like dirty country cupboards. They're kind of like the Joe of cupboards. I just don't know if you can paint the ugly off this.

Who am I talking about? That's up for you to decide. Yeah, she's like, I don't even know if you can paint the ugly off. But at the very least. he can put deodorant on it. Am I right? I mean, not that he does, but he could. Am I right, Joe? Am I theory?

So, Richard's like, wow, goes, wow, it's really big, basically, right? And Kat's like, I mean, this part, just the front bit is as big as our entire apartment. And Joe's like, oh my God, so many projects. She goes, I mean, it's not hardwood floors, though, unfortunately. And I see carpet as well. It was

hardwood floor as though, wasn't it? I think it was laminate. Oh, I see. Yeah. But also, So, you know what? You know what? It's not 500 square feet with no laundry and no dishwasher. That's what it's not. So take the laminar.

You're buying it. Mailed down some wood. You know what I mean? Yeah, exactly. So now they go into the kitchen and they're looking around. It comes with a fridge, which they really like. And there is like a laundry room. And there's like a little section that she calls a Harry Potter closet, which I'm,

did Harry Potter have like a famous closet that was next to? Have you still not watched Harry Potter? I've seen Harry Potter's. No, you have not. I've seen like four of them. His parents get murdered and then he has to go live with his aunt and they hate him. And so they make him live under the stairs in this little cupboard thing like that door. And they didn't even know that he was the chosen one who eventually goes on, spoiler alert to kill Voldemort.

And so, I know that. Who's sorry now? I saw like the last, okay, I saw like the last three or four movies. And I saw half of the first movie. So it's not like I'm fully without context. I just was not aware that he lived in a little section next to a dishwasher or next to a laundry machine and a drying machine. He did. Well, good for him.

I probably still never learned how to do laundry because he's a man. I mean, he's still, he's Harry Potter, but he's still at the end of the day, a man. Am I right, guys? He's like, laundricus. I've done washing machinicus. They're like, the one spell Harry Potter won't do, the laundry spell. Am I right? Who would say that?

What ladies came to London and we're like, well, this is a nice castle and everything, but guess what, Harry Potter and Everter learned that laundry spell? Some Texans, some Texans go to Hogwarts for a tour.

Do you guys do the laundry spell here? No. Of course not. This school must be run by man still. So now they go check out the backyard and it's, you know, it's a fairly typical L.A. backyard where it's backyard on top of backyard on top of backyard. You're in like five different backyards, you know. And she's like, there's absolutely no privacy here. We're completely looking into our neighbor's yard. I was like, well, who do you, I feel worse for the neighbor personally. Yeah. Look, you just look, now they have a view of Joe. Okay. Yeah. How do you think they feel? And Richard's like, um, you can just put some nice pot of plants and trees here. Um, and that'll give you privacy, you dumb fuck. And Joe's like, oh, that's actually a good idea.

How about this? Why don't you just like make a wall of rented cameras and just stack them right there on the edge of the balcony and block out the view? And Kat's like, oh my God, is that a palm granite tree. And he goes, that is a palmer. Now, lady, he doesn't understand what craftsmen or shower nozzles are. Yes, that is a pomegranate tree. And guess what else? You have pomegranate.

You have citrus. You have avocado. Could you be more specific about the citrus? What does that mean, the citrus tree? Is that a fruit? It actually grows. Little boxes of five alive. Little starbursts just fall off the street,

off the tree. So she goes, well, I still want to go out for brunch, even if we're growing avocado. So, like Joe takes her out to brunch ever. It's like, I know, I was going to say. You guys are not West Hollywood brunchers.

Get out of here. I don't know who you're trying to kid with this narrative, but no one's buying it, all right. I've also yet to have a good avocado that's grown in someone's backyard in Los Angeles. Everyone's like, do you hear some avocados? They fell off my tree. And then they're always rock hard. And then you wait for them to get ripe. And then you finally, you're like, I can't wait anymore. You open up its brown on the inside. It's like, wait a second. There was never even a ripe window. Can I tell you something? Nothing has ever been truer than what you just said. It's like literally the truest thing I've ever heard in my life. No one ever has a good avocado for their fucking tree in L.A. No one. I've never tasted. And I've tasted a lot of them because people brag about that shit.

Like they, like they spermed a tree and grew them themselves, you know? Always terrible. There's never been a soft avocado that's been homegrown in Los Angeles, ever. Never. Claude we settled that. During the riots, they used to just take avocados from the ground and, like, throw them at each other. Throw them through windows. Throw them through windows.

It was horrifying. So now they go upstairs, and there's like this weird little inlet on the platform going upstairs, and she's like, oh, what's this naughty corner? Is this where you can go when you're naughty and decide you want to put on deodorant Joe? Could this be Joe's little deodorant nook? Can we installs those nozzles, you know, like a car wash or like a spray tan? We just put them in here, he steps in, and they just give me a little sprits, something like that. What was that?

do you think that they it was it looked like it was a staircase about to be a staircase and then it just like off to another area yeah it was two stairs up to nothing and then Richard goes I don't know what that is but um it would be perfect for a cat tree I'm sorry you're talking about Joe's career you said you didn't know what it was because that's what we all feel too I would love to put a cat tree in his career so then they see a bath the full bath the bathtub and she's like wait but there's a met is there a a master with a bath. And he's like, unfortunately, the master does not have a bathtub. Fortunately, you did steal this from a family who was pushed out of here after paying $5 for it 20

years ago. And now you're going to get it for a million. So let's be grateful. Okay. Yeah, exactly. Also, I love when people who have just like tiny, tiny, tiny apartments are just like scraping by now all of a sudden want like tip top luxury for their $850,000 budget. Like, you can deal with having a bathtub in a different bath. room. Yeah, agreed. So, but then they go into the master and, um, well, they, they, you know, it's fine. And there's like a room with half walls and it's like going to be an office and everything. And like, she's like, this could be my office where I write all my stories, like the story about the princess who used to travel the world and then was trapped by an ogre in West Hollywood.

So they want to make sure the other room has, is big enough for a California. King. Is that like really a thing? I looked at a picture of a California King the other day, because I have to look at beds. And I've never really considered a California King. I knew they were bigger, but I didn't understand they were skinnier, but longer than a regular king. That's how it works, a California King? No, they're wider. They're really wide. The California Kings. First of all, at this point, they're just saying King's size bed. And then later on, they're like, well, actually, we're really trying to move up to a California King. I'm like, how about you just get, like, be happy with a regular? You could honestly just be happy with

a queen's size bed, the two of you. No, because you know that right now. Oh, no, no, I can't. I don't even do that alone. I need a king-sized bed, just enough room to push my iPad over and not fall off the bed. Well, California King is massive. It's like what Carlton had on Beverly Hills. Remember her massive bed?

Oh, yeah. It's crazy how big there. Or it's like, what's your face, Angie? Angie and Sean have it on a Salt Lake City. Oh, that's bigger than a California king. That thing's huge for what they have. That's a California king. It is?

Yeah. Wow, that's crazy. I love it. Oh, wait, maybe it's like Alaskan King. Isn't there an Alaskan King now? Oh, for fuck's sake. So it's literally named after something cold after getting a bed big enough that you never have to touch your partner. Love it.

I love it. The Alaska King is what Angie has and what Carlton had. And the California King is like not quite, is still huge. Like unnecessarily huge. Well, it's official. We just won an award for this podcast. Just kidding. Okay.

So, um, guys, the next thing that happens is, They see a vanity. They like it. They see a shower. And is this where, oh, this is where she's like, oh, that's a big shower. We could put a pony in there and then we could bathe the pony. I just came up with an idea. Let me go to that little two-step thing and start writing. Right? Here comes my screenplay that's going to liberate me from living with this monster of a man. Pony in a bath. So they now are done with it. And they're like, you know, like, the space is great and everything. And she's like, you know, even though I don't really know the area very well. It does seem like it's really cool and it's, there's going to be lots of fun

places for us to explore and I'm looking forward to Joe going to the bowling alley and slipping and falling down on people hitting them with balls and, you know, and Joe's like, well, do you know, the commute is going to be, it's like an hour from here to my job. Wow, there's so much distance, so many opportunities for you to get hit by something. I'm in. Where do I sign? Do you think we can look for a house that's even further east? Maybe out another half an hour, 45 minutes into its commute? Do you have anything available? in China. Chinatown? China. I say them. All right. So, now they're in the car. I like this. I love when they do the car

talking, you know, and instead of being like, we're going to go to a wacky restaurant that serves chicken wings and milkshakes. Like, they don't do that now. They're just like driving. So, the voice, Linda, is like, so to show them what they could afford in West Hollywood, their agents lined up a condo near their current department. This is one of the these West Hollywood places that is just designed insanely. I don't know if they just didn't have laws back then, you know, because now there's laws, you have to get a permit to do anything.

This, I think there was a certain time where there was just no permits necessary to do anything. Cause this one is just two circles put on each other. Right? Is that this one? Yeah, where it's like the red circles. It's like, it's a, it's, it's, okay. So there's a type of building, that exists in LA, it's an apartment building that exists LA in the cul-de-sacs of these streets that go up into the hills.

Like, there are a lot of these streets that go up into the hills, and then they have a cul-de-sac, and then there's just, like, strange buildings that are always around them. And they always have, like, circular elements in them, right? They're modern, you know, they're from that era where they're like, let's make modern things. Everything's going to be around. Right. You know, they're, like, crazy.

But it's just funny because they stay up forever. I mean, they're still standing. It's like two discs and they've been covered with maroon pool tiles. Yeah. This place looks great. I'll just drop a million to live here. You know there's no parking for guests up there. Whenever there's a cul-de-sac in the hills, never any parking.

Yeah. So let's see here. They're looking at this place there and Joe's like, it's a compromise. You know, it is like a condo. And she's like, well, I like it. I like it already. So it's in West Hollywood. Let's see. So Kat and Joe want to upgrade from their apartment to a larger house. But in their preferred neighborhood, the only homes and their price rate are condos.

So their agents taking them to see one. He's like, it's like 1,300 square feet. It's just recently reduced from 738 to 725. Can you believe the bargain for 1,300 square feet? Now, on the bad side, we did not have to kick anyone out of here. No one was displaced by this condo. So it sort of loses some of it. appeal by that. So they go into this place. It is so stark white. I've never in all our time watching House Hunter seen a place that was as white as this condo.

Yeah, it really was. It was like a sci-fi movie. This was just a very cheap flip where someone was like, oh, it's a condo. Let's just slap some white on it and put it back on the market. And that's what they did. So they do have two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The style of this house, I have to say. is hideous. They have just big gigantic sinks plopped on a countertop. Not in a cute way. I guess that can be

done cutly, but... Yeah, they're raised sinks. And then there's like the living room, it's not like a sunken living room, but there's like one area that's kind of raised up, which is kind of annoying, because you know that that really impacts what kind of furniture you put in there, right? So that made no sense to me. And he's like, well, you know, this can be kind of like a performance space or like, you can put a big TV, a big TV here. This is like where you watch your shows. And she's like, no, thank you. She goes, well, it is a big wall to us.

You're allowed, I suppose. Joe. Oh, great. I'm allowed to have a TV. Wow, thanks. What a couple. Yeah. The HOA is 670.

So that's a concern. And they have like, their outdoor space, they're like on the first floor. Or if they're not, maybe not the first floor, but they're on the first floor of the complex. if that makes sense, like, given that the first floor is really garage, they're like, there's like a big courtyard and they're in the first floor of the courtyard. So they have this, like, one little sort of like fenced in area, like bamboo that they can maybe have a grill.

But then they have like other area. At one point, they're like looking through this like window that's high up. It's like a crawl space window. And they're like, oh, look, this is all area too. This is what we can have lots of pipe over here in this little alleyway. And then they try to make themselves feel good about the high window. They're like, Well, I don't see Chomsky jumping out of there. Well, that's good. Save Chomsky this time. Like, how many times it's Chomsky just tried to bolt?

You know? Chomsky's like, I'm out of him. I'm going for the window. Chomsky's just trying to get to Silver Lake. They're other hipster cats. And then there's a little chandelier. For some reason, this entire place is stark white and modern, but they left this really like this strange 1930s chandelier that there makes no sense.

why it's still there. And they keep bonking their heads into it. So there is a stove and it's not gas, right? It's electric. Right. It's electric. And so she's like, I won't cook on that. So you'll have to do all the cooking Joe. I cannot cook on electric. You'll be fine. Okay. And then there's like a hood. They didn't know what the hood was because I think the way the hood works, I just have to imagine there's like a button and when it turns on, it lowers, right? Um, She said, wait, where is this part? When they're looking at the stove top, they're like, what's that strange thing that's above the stove? And Richard's like, I believe it's the hood because that's what's normally over a stove top.

But it looks modern because it's sort of like up and at an angle. And I think that that's one of those things where when you turn on, it lowers down over. Do you see my hand? I'm demonstrating with my hand. Why do we need to make confusing hoods? That's my question. Do we really need to reinvent the hood? Just put a fucking hood in there.

You know what I mean? So then Joe's like, wait, is that a fan? And Richard's like, I believe that's a fan for the stove. And like, oh, so it's a hood with a fan. How does that work exactly? It's something, what do you even need a hood there? I don't lock hoods. And you know what?

There's not enough candor spice. Like, where am I going to put the toaster of it in the microwave? And he's like, all the counter space over there. Oh, you know what, I'll take that back. I'm sorry. So now they, she loves a fridge. Okay, so now they go look at the bathroom. It's fine.

And then they look at another little bedroom. And Joe goes, so is this a master bedroom? He's like, no, that's your guest bedroom. I mean, it's 1,300 square feet, guys. Let's use our imagination. Yeah. So they're looking around. I mean, they seem to like it.

There's like a washer and a dryer. So they're happy about that, you know. That's a big deal for them. And the master is like, you know, they go into the master and they like, you know, Joe's like, you know, it's kind of a nice size. And cats's like, just if I, Richard, this is my pet hate. Okay. I really hate sinks that come up like this. Okay.

Just for next time, okay? Just for next time. Okay. And next time, I want you to find hundreds of places that cost $8 that we're offering. And I want them to be tailor made to exactly what I want. Kat, you're paying nothing. You're going to get whatever the fuck. kind of sink they put on there. Okay, Cat? Just for next time, can you please just not show me a place

that has sinks that rise out of the canter that are being recessed into them? I think so much. And this is the part where she goes, what is that? And they point at it, and it's in the shower, and it's hanging like a shower knobble. I mean, what the fuck people? And Richard goes, it's a detachable shower head. And Cat goes, oh, what is that? He's like, a detachable shower head. Really? What is it, though? A showerhead that detached? Disgusting. Is that a snake? There's a snake in the shower where a sharehead's supposed to be.

Am I supposed to shower with a snake? And Joe goes, that looks like a wand. I mean, it looks like a water wand. Guys will all survive. I literally have the same thing in my bathroom. I literally have the same exact, it has like a overhead like rain thing, and then it has a detachable thing, and it's literally the exact same wand

and the exact same thing. I will speak from experience. You will all survive, and you will have a perfectly fine shower. I don't know why I was so offended by that, but I was like, it's a fucking shower, you weirdos. Why are they so weirded out by a shower?

And it's a nice shower, you know? Yeah. So then they look at the master bedroom and it has a very nice view, allegedly. What was it a view of? I don't remember. I don't think it was a view of anything.

I think they were just telling themselves this. I think so. She's like, so Kat's like, you know, you really gave us everything we wanted out of this, except for those hideous sinks and strange share with things, you know. Yeah, those were terrible, but you know what? You can only do what you can do, am I right? Luser. But, you know, we got, like, it's just, the spice isn't huge.

It's like way more than what we have now. It's flexible. But, like, we could put an off on here. But Joe's like, no, the HOA is too high. So now it's time to go look at yet another place. Dun, don't, don't. Since the HOA is giving them cold feet, their agent is taking them to another neighborhood

on the east side of LA. Dun, don't, don. Do we find out what neighborhood it is? Glendale. Oh, it is Glendale. Yes, that's way on the east side. That's not just the east side. Carl, it's a different place.

Richard's like, okay, you fuckers. As I just took you to two perfectly decent options, and now, as your punishment, I'm taking you to Glendale. So, he's like, you know, we haven't really discussed, Glendale a whole lot, but it's kind of a different vibe. It's like a little more of a suburban feel. Like, how do you feel about small Honda Civics racing down your street? Are you into that? How do you feel about drag races involving Honda Civics? You guys under that? They're lifted. Don't worry. They're lifted. Generally, they're lifted. I enjoy Glendale. I love their

Costco? I believe the Costco's over there. Well, yeah, that's more of like atwater village, but they have a good life. Close enough. That's as far as, that's as far as in the Glendale as I get. The Americana, they've got the Galleria. They've got, they've got everything over there. Oh yeah, we've been to that mall together. Oh yeah, we've done some episodes from that mall. Oh yeah. We sure have. We went to a target. We went looking for your red lamp, I believe, in that target, in that mall. And we found a clock for me, right? We sure did. God, the memories. Oh, Glendale. So they're in Glendale. And, you know, Cat is terrified of Glendale because they're in the car and they're like stopped at an intersection and they're having this conversation.

And, you know, Joe is like looking left and right, I guess waiting for traffic to open. And Kat is like her eyes. I don't know if you notice this. She is darting left and right like this. She is afraid. They both were. They weren't nervous. They were like literally driving and they were on a busy street because her and the realtor were both doing it.

They're going, huh? Did you notice that with her? She just kept on this. I'm like, lady. It was her and the realtor. There was so much traffic. I was like, they're going to die on television. They're gonna go get slammered right on television.

They're trying to make a left turn, not at a light, that they're at a stop sign, and they're trying to make a left onto, like, the highway right now. Yeah, pretty much. Okay, so it's a two-bed, two-bathroom, okay, guys, and it's a Spanish, which is just what Kat wanted. She's like, Gracie-Emm-or-Roy. Yeah, so they're looking around at it, and they're, you know,

it's cute on the outside. It's cute. This is the Spanish style. It's like a nice little, nice little, you know, nice little like greenery in the front, et cetera. But it's old. Like it's really old. The kitchen, the kitchen looks old. It's got that tile, like pink tile in it and everything. It's going to need a gut. Yeah, the kitchen's going to need a gut. Yeah. And then the flooring they had over it's not not good. Oh, not the kitchen, but the whole house. That wood. You know, there's like that wood kind of woodish floor that they put in now. It's just, it looks like a toy. Not good. I don't like that trend. Yeah. So, they're just sort of walking around. This whole house, it's like, it's cute.

It has a nice size, but everything in it is just really, really old fashion. And this is where cats like, yeah, you know, this, this masturbate room is just a bit small. And we're trying to upgrade to a Kali King. Would that even fit in here? It's like, what? You are not at a Kali King level yet. Okay. I'm sorry.

You're not at that level yet in life. Yeah, I feel like that is definitely like, guess what? I've done everything I need to do in life. I'm getting a fucking California king. By the way, I did look up California King. I think you're right. I think it is longer. I think that is the thing with it.

I think I was confusing the California King with Alaska King. Yeah, I mean, maybe people turn it sideways. But the reason I saw it was because I was on a bed chart and they were showing like the bed dimensions of every kind of bed. And I just looked at it and I was like, I didn't realize a California king is longer but skinnier. than a normal. I guess it was for tall people. I don't know. Yeah, it's weird.

I'm looking at it now as well. Yeah, it's odd. But I will tell you, a California king, you always find sheets to buy at a Ross or somewhere like that, a discount place because there's just not enough

California king buyers out there. So you will always find that your size of a discount. You know, there's something called an Olympic queen and that's like sort of in between. Oh, God, that's you every four years. The Alaska Queen

really doesn't even, Okay, I finally found one that includes an Alaska queen. So an Alaska queen fits four people in it, which, by the way, if you have four people in your bed, it's really supposed to be like two adults and two kids, but I don't know, that's a lot. There's also a Wyoming king. Good for you. Good for you. Look, there's a California king, an Olympic queen, a Wyoming king, a Texas king, and Alaskan king.

Okay, you know what? Just get me a bag. Who is sheet shopping for these people? Just get a queen. Okay. So they're looking at all this. this stuff and it's kind of small. The place is old, you know, it's like run down. It's badly redone at different decades, not well in any of those decades. And now there's like a door to the,

there's a door to the outside of the bathroom. The yard is, and there's like a shitty yard that's just like sad and like dirt. It's just a pile of dirt. Yeah, this one, this one's not really great at all. So we get quick shots of each room and it's sadder. It's even sadder when you like fast forward through it. So now they're walking their dog to talk about it. Now they have to choose between space, a location, and a terrible partner. Just kidding. They've already chosen that. So let's see what they do. And cats are like staying right here in the West Hollywood area would be good for you, it would be good for me. It would be terrible for the gays who are really sick of the straight people taking over their city. But Chomsky has already written a dissertation on why we should

actually get out of this big. And then they are because I guess they're like going up for Runyon Canyon or something like that. And they're sort of like weighing it back and forth. At this point, I actually thought they were going to stay in West Hollywood. I thought that, like, Highland Park would just be too far for them, and they were just going to stay there. But then, it long last, it is time for them to choose between the Blue Craftsman in Highland Park, the condo in West Hollywood, or the Spanish style in Glendale.

Ding dong. Go Red? Yeah, go Red. Easy decision. That was the easiest decision we've had to make so far. We choose the craftsmen. Don, dun, don't, don. They chose the craftsmen.

They're going to paint the front door red instead of orange. Like, wow, what a huge difference. They hold up the paint chip to it. It's like barely a hue different from it. Like, oh, thank God. God, you guys really put your stamp on that one. Wow. They took out the shower.

Yeah, probably. We just put a plastic bag over the shower nozzle. Was this a place with the shower nozzle thing? No, that was the, I think. I think that was the condo that had the, the, damn it. They still probably took out the nozzle. They brought all their bad furniture into this place. They sure did.

And Joe, she's like, oh, now I've got a little more faith in Joe's ability to use a tool. Okay, because he has had a project and he has done it. So good for him. Yeah, so now they live in Highland Park. And good luck to them. Yeah. Oh, and they turned that little room into the cat room. Yes.

goes out a little door. For Chomsky. Good Chomsky. So, yeah, that was pretty cute. You know, it was fun seeing it. It was fun seeing all these neighborhoods that we don't go to a lot, you know? I know. Highland Park just seems so far, but everybody talks about it like it's so glamorous.

It's nice. We're going to Highland Park. No, Halland Park definitely has some really cute stuff in it. And, like, there's definitely, it's definitely a cute neighborhood. It's just far. It's far from everything I want. So, yeah. It shall not be for me.

We're not moving there. That's for sure. Okay, everybody. Thanks so much for being here. We will see you the next time we do it. Okay. Bye. Bye, everyone.
