We just took the car and we just 78 00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:37.680 started driving, and she did make a reservation for the museum, 79 00:04:37.800 --> 00:04:40.319 and we did have lunch at Jeffrey's in Malibu, which 80 00:04:40.319 --> 00:04:43.600 is off a PCH, which is also exquisite great food 81 00:04:44.079 --> 00:04:48.000 reservation only and also great views too, So it's a 82 00:04:48.079 --> 00:04:50.240 nice day to spend the day in Malibu if you've 83 00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:52.879 never really kind of just been nosy about it, other 84 00:04:52.959 --> 00:04:54.079 than going to the beach. 85 00:04:54.600 --> 00:04:57.399 A good place to go, when you say, a good 86 00:04:57.399 --> 00:05:00.040 place to go if you just get a chance to 87 00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:05.399 look at the website. It is a gorgeous, gorgeous scenic 88 00:05:05.959 --> 00:05:08.519 place where you can look out over the water and 89 00:05:08.560 --> 00:05:12.920 you're kind of reminded how spoiled we are in southern California. 90 00:05:13.040 --> 00:05:17.800 You have these opportunities and landmarks to visit, relatively inexpensive 91 00:05:18.000 --> 00:05:20.199 or free, but they're there for the taking. In more 92 00:05:20.240 --> 00:05:22.279 time than not, we don't take advantage of them. And 93 00:05:22.279 --> 00:05:26.480 that's why I enjoy what you're doing here Nauica, to 94 00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:29.040 remind us of what is available to us and also 95 00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:31.160 make sure that we take advantage of them. 96 00:05:31.160 --> 00:05:34.319 Most definitely, most sometimes we don't even go see that, 97 00:05:34.439 --> 00:05:36.360 Like I said, we don't even go see the things 98 00:05:36.360 --> 00:05:38.439 that are in our back in our own backyards. 99 00:05:38.439 --> 00:05:40.040 But right the lagoon is. 100 00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:43.759 Amazing, The scenic view is beautiful, and you know, I 101 00:05:43.959 --> 00:05:47.720 stood there, and I stood there in the garden and 102 00:05:47.759 --> 00:05:50.639 I just kind of meditated for about maybe two to 103 00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:54.319 three minutes, I had a spiritual conversation, and I was 104 00:05:54.439 --> 00:05:57.680 just there to listen, to listen what was spoken to me, 105 00:05:57.800 --> 00:06:01.199 and also to listen to the waves and the birds. 106 00:06:01.800 --> 00:06:03.639 You know, sometimes you just got to get away from 107 00:06:03.680 --> 00:06:06.439 the city. You got to go to near the water 108 00:06:06.519 --> 00:06:09.439 and just kind of, you know, refresh yourself. We kind 109 00:06:09.439 --> 00:06:14.360 of refocus and you know, just I don't know. And 110 00:06:14.600 --> 00:06:16.839 Latino culture, it's kind of like a cleanse a beach. 111 00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:18.800 When you go to the beach, it's it's more of 112 00:06:18.839 --> 00:06:21.360 a cleansed thing, but it's it's also a spiritual thing, 113 00:06:21.360 --> 00:06:25.560 but it's also a sense of being grounded and a 114 00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:29.879 sense of peace. I need to go to the beach more. 115 00:06:29.920 --> 00:06:32.480 I'm not a water person, but I do. I do 116 00:06:32.639 --> 00:06:36.000 enjoy the serenity of the beach and the water and 117 00:06:36.000 --> 00:06:39.199 how calming it is, how relaxing is, and to your point, 118 00:06:39.480 --> 00:06:41.639 it's a great way to reset, it's a great way 119 00:06:41.639 --> 00:06:46.439 to recalibrate. And again, we have all of these landmarks 120 00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:50.319 and museums right under our nose, and we just drive 121 00:06:50.360 --> 00:06:53.360 by them every single day, all giving them a second 122 00:06:53.360 --> 00:06:56.360 thought all the time. I know, that's why we have 123 00:06:56.399 --> 00:06:58.839 to get out and discover Southern California because it has 124 00:06:58.959 --> 00:07:02.399 so much to all for and I think even in 125 00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:05.399 our golden years, we maybe get as we get older, 126 00:07:05.439 --> 00:07:08.959 there are still Nickson crannies that will probably never find. 127 00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:12.199 But you know, the whole point is to dedicate, you know, 128 00:07:12.360 --> 00:07:15.439 either a weekend a month or two weekends a month, 129 00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:17.519 just go, you know what, Let's get in the car. 130 00:07:17.639 --> 00:07:19.879 Let's you have dogs, Let's take the dogs and let's 131 00:07:19.879 --> 00:07:22.439 see where. Let's see where you know, our Chevy takes us. 132 00:07:22.519 --> 00:07:24.720 I don't know what you drive, but I'm just saying, 133 00:07:24.879 --> 00:07:27.319 you know, see where your car takes you, and just go, oh, 134 00:07:27.399 --> 00:07:29.800 I didn't even know this was here. You know, you know, 135 00:07:29.920 --> 00:07:32.680 go to Big Sir, go to Monterey, go to Berkeley, 136 00:07:32.759 --> 00:07:35.560 go to San Francisco, go to somewhere in San Diego. 137 00:07:35.680 --> 00:07:38.519 Go to a wine country or or wine you know, 138 00:07:38.560 --> 00:07:41.720 a vineyard. You just never know. But sometimes it's just 139 00:07:41.920 --> 00:07:44.879 really about just getting in the car and going. 140 00:07:45.720 --> 00:07:47.639 I got to correct you. Were you saying like I'm 141 00:07:47.639 --> 00:07:50.399 old or something where you're talking about golden years. No, no, no, 142 00:07:50.439 --> 00:07:52.000 I'm going to be forever young. I just want to 143 00:07:52.040 --> 00:07:54.639 be clear, all right, I do I have a birthday 144 00:07:54.639 --> 00:07:57.879 coming up, yes, but It's not like I'm going to be, 145 00:07:58.040 --> 00:07:59.920 you know, marching in the social securities. 146 00:08:00.160 --> 00:08:03.319 Down, slow down, you know what I mean. 147 00:08:03.439 --> 00:08:06.959 I don't know. I was kind of insulted there for 148 00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:07.399 a second. 149 00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:08.720 I would never insult you. 150 00:08:08.800 --> 00:08:11.040 But what I'm saying is, you know, we get caught 151 00:08:11.120 --> 00:08:14.120 up in life, Mo, and yes we're both still young, 152 00:08:14.360 --> 00:08:16.879 we're in our prime in our lives, but we get 153 00:08:16.879 --> 00:08:20.240 caught up in housework and work, and I gotta do this, 154 00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:22.759 I gotta do that, I gotta do all this other stuff. 155 00:08:22.800 --> 00:08:24.519 And we never put ourselves first. 156 00:08:24.519 --> 00:08:27.680 We put everybody else first, and we forget about the 157 00:08:27.720 --> 00:08:31.000 fun and all the things that Los Angeles and California 158 00:08:31.040 --> 00:08:31.959 has to offer us. 159 00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:35.440 And sometimes we just have to go.

Today's hidden gem is Antonio Loma. 171 00:09:03.879 --> 00:09:05.279 Antonio Loma grew up in the. 172 00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:08.159 Modest neighborhood of Los Angeles, where his father worked long 173 00:09:08.240 --> 00:09:12.320 hours as a construction worker. Every evening, Antonio would watch 174 00:09:12.399 --> 00:09:14.919 his father come home with his hands rough from a 175 00:09:15.000 --> 00:09:19.679 day spent laboring with bricks, cement, and wood. What started 176 00:09:19.759 --> 00:09:22.559 as a way to pass time soon turned into a 177 00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:25.919 passion for young Antonio. His father would bring home scraps 178 00:09:25.960 --> 00:09:28.799 of wood from job sites, giving him the challenge of 179 00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:33.279 transforming the leftover pieces into something new. With each creation, 180 00:09:33.960 --> 00:09:38.799 be it's a small sculpture, a toy, or a makeshift shelf, 181 00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:42.600 Antonio found a sense of pride and purpose. His father's 182 00:09:42.720 --> 00:09:47.440 encouragement to always find the value in the things others 183 00:09:47.559 --> 00:09:51.200 overlook kind of stuck with him. By the time Antonio 184 00:09:51.240 --> 00:09:54.759 was a teenager, he had enrolled in a Los Angeles 185 00:09:54.759 --> 00:09:58.639 trade school. Eager to become an electrician. He saw it 186 00:09:58.679 --> 00:10:01.000 was a way to carry forward the skills his father 187 00:10:01.080 --> 00:10:04.279 had taught him, but this time with wires and circuits 188 00:10:04.720 --> 00:10:10.200 rather than nails and wood. Antonio knew that electricity, like 189 00:10:10.240 --> 00:10:13.320 the materials his father used had potential to bring something 190 00:10:13.360 --> 00:10:16.919 to life. His journey took him to sam Bernardino, where 191 00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:20.039 he now works on a series of major projects that 192 00:10:20.159 --> 00:10:23.919 not only light up buildings, but also honors his father's 193 00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:29.559 legacy of craftsmanship and ingenuity. For Antonio, his hands aren't 194 00:10:29.679 --> 00:10:34.240 just about creating. They are also honoring a family tradition 195 00:10:34.320 --> 00:10:39.919 of transforming what seems ordinary into something extraordinary. Antonio's story 196 00:10:40.159 --> 00:10:45.320 aligns with the mission of Rediscovercenter dot org, an organization 197 00:10:45.440 --> 00:10:50.960 that champions creativity by repurposing discarded materials for educational and 198 00:10:51.200 --> 00:10:56.759 artistic purposes. Founded by a group of passionate educators and artists, 199 00:10:57.320 --> 00:11:01.799 the Rediscover Center began as a small community initiative where 200 00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:06.039 people were encouraged to turn their waste into wonders. What 201 00:11:06.200 --> 00:11:09.679 started with a few people sharing ideas on upcycling grew 202 00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:13.840 into a larger movement. The center now provides children and 203 00:11:13.879 --> 00:11:19.240 adults alike the opportunity to create, explore, and rediscover the 204 00:11:19.279 --> 00:11:25.159 potential in materials that would otherwise be discarded. Rediscovercenter dot 205 00:11:25.240 --> 00:11:29.720 org believes in the power of sustainability and education, promoting 206 00:11:29.840 --> 00:11:34.120 hands on learning with the focus on reusing everyday objects 207 00:11:34.200 --> 00:11:39.559 to make art. The organization offers workshops, classes, and community 208 00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:43.639 events where participants are taught to look beyond the surface 209 00:11:43.799 --> 00:11:46.639 of what is seen as waste. 210 00:11:46.840 --> 00:11:48.399 Like Antonio's father taught him. 211 00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:54.600 The Rediscover Center teaches that teaches that creativity has no 212 00:11:54.720 --> 00:11:57.679 bounds when you learn to see the value where others 213 00:11:57.799 --> 00:12:01.440 see trash. Their mission is not only to foster creativity, 214 00:12:01.720 --> 00:12:06.039 but also to build a more sustainable world, one recycled 215 00:12:06.120 --> 00:12:10.399 masterpiece at a time. Now, for more information on the organization, 216 00:12:10.639 --> 00:12:13.399 events or how you could donate, I would like you 217 00:12:13.480 --> 00:12:19.080 to visit Rediscovercenter dot org. That's Rediscovercenter dot org. 218 00:12:19.519 --> 00:12:20.279 And honestly, mo. 219 00:12:20.480 --> 00:12:23.559 I think we should all learn to repurpose things or 220 00:12:23.600 --> 00:12:27.879 recycle and be creative. We buy so much stuff every 221 00:12:28.039 --> 00:12:32.240 single day. I see Amazon packages delivered in my building 222 00:12:32.360 --> 00:12:35.600 every single day, and I'm like, oh, another box, more waste, 223 00:12:35.639 --> 00:12:36.360 more waste. 224 00:12:36.480 --> 00:12:38.480 We just buy a little bit too much. 225 00:12:38.759 --> 00:12:40.480 And one of the things I have to say about 226 00:12:40.519 --> 00:12:45.240 my father, and not only Antonio's father, my father, you know, 227 00:12:45.759 --> 00:12:46.840 he always tried. 228 00:12:46.600 --> 00:12:47.759 To repurpose something. 229 00:12:47.840 --> 00:12:50.120 He would break it apart and go I could use 230 00:12:50.159 --> 00:12:52.799 this for this, And I think we need to start 231 00:12:52.799 --> 00:12:53.200 doing that. 232 00:12:53.279 --> 00:12:54.320 I know I'm one of those. 233 00:12:54.200 --> 00:12:56.600 People that I could go, oh, I can make this 234 00:12:56.759 --> 00:13:00.440 out of whatever. But I don't like to buy a 235 00:13:00.440 --> 00:13:02.200 lot of stuff, and I don't like to throw a 236 00:13:02.240 --> 00:13:05.519 lot of you know, trash and you know, other than 237 00:13:05.559 --> 00:13:06.279 the normal waste. 238 00:13:06.360 --> 00:13:09.840 But it's just I just feel like we're over consuming. 239 00:13:09.960 --> 00:13:11.799 And I have seen, like. 240 00:13:11.759 --> 00:13:13.519 There's this one place I can't think of the name 241 00:13:13.559 --> 00:13:15.440 of it right now, mo, but there's this place in 242 00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:19.480 Palm Strings of Palm Springs that's like a museum, and 243 00:13:19.519 --> 00:13:23.799 it's this artist that has repurposed has made statues of metal, 244 00:13:24.200 --> 00:13:28.600 of bottle caps of aluminum, of wood, of pieces of glass, 245 00:13:28.639 --> 00:13:30.840 and they take it and they make mosaics out of it. 246 00:13:30.840 --> 00:13:33.480 It's just absolutely amazing. And I think that's a good 247 00:13:33.480 --> 00:13:35.559 way to express art. 248 00:13:35.720 --> 00:13:38.320 Yeah, I think you touch up upon something because we 249 00:13:38.399 --> 00:13:42.200 live in a world and obviously our society, which is 250 00:13:42.559 --> 00:13:48.480 built upon the idea of just having more consumerism, purchasing things, 251 00:13:48.679 --> 00:13:51.919 you know, and our lives and our happiness at least 252 00:13:51.960 --> 00:13:56.159 what we think is somehow connected to being able to spend, 253 00:13:56.600 --> 00:13:59.720 being able to buy, And I think that's part of 254 00:13:59.759 --> 00:14:02.840 the why so many people are so very unhappy, because 255 00:14:02.879 --> 00:14:06.639 they measure their own happiness relative to how many physical 256 00:14:06.679 --> 00:14:10.200 items that they may buy, and that would seem to 257 00:14:10.240 --> 00:14:12.720 be a more recent phenomenon. That wasn't the case when 258 00:14:12.759 --> 00:14:14.240 I was growing up. I know it wasn't the case 259 00:14:14.240 --> 00:14:17.759 when you were growing up. We just have this society 260 00:14:17.759 --> 00:14:20.559 which is bent upon Okay, I want something and I 261 00:14:20.600 --> 00:14:22.080 want to have it, and so let me get it 262 00:14:22.159 --> 00:14:24.600 right now. Click click, click on the computer and it's 263 00:14:24.639 --> 00:14:27.759 on the way. And that has given us, i would say, 264 00:14:28.759 --> 00:14:33.840 a distorted view of what's important and what is of value, 265 00:14:34.279 --> 00:14:37.039 because again, we're always going back to I want it, 266 00:14:37.320 --> 00:14:39.080 let me buy it, let me get it as soon 267 00:14:39.120 --> 00:14:42.279 as possible. So you are definitely touching upon something. But 268 00:14:42.360 --> 00:14:44.799 I wanted to ask you before we get out of here. Yes, 269 00:14:45.720 --> 00:14:49.440 are you going to be joining us next week at 270 00:14:49.759 --> 00:14:51.519 the Lady with mo Kelly pre Halloween? 271 00:14:51.679 --> 00:14:54.200 Soare on October thirtieth? 272 00:14:54.440 --> 00:14:57.360 I gave you my word.

It is called 351 00:18:35.119 --> 00:18:38.680 The Last Dangerous Visions. If you're a cy fine herd, 352 00:18:38.720 --> 00:18:40.920 this will ring a bell. If not, I'll explain. And 353 00:18:40.960 --> 00:18:43.640 it's a little personal. I've mentioned before. The writer Harlan 354 00:18:43.680 --> 00:18:45.920 Ellison was a friend of mine. He died in twenty eighteen, 355 00:18:46.039 --> 00:18:49.480 and I'm pretty sure that through newspapers, radio and podcasts, 356 00:18:49.680 --> 00:18:52.200 I interviewed him more than anyone else. The first book 357 00:18:52.200 --> 00:18:54.960 of his I read as a teenager was like getting 358 00:18:54.960 --> 00:18:56.960 a bolt shot into my brain from one of those 359 00:18:57.000 --> 00:19:01.960 cattle guns. Ferociously intelligent guy, compassed it really raw and 360 00:19:02.160 --> 00:19:04.960 not just unafraid of bullies, but compelled to fight him 361 00:19:04.960 --> 00:19:06.319 no matter who they were. There was no one else 362 00:19:06.359 --> 00:19:08.960 like Carlan Ellison. He'd also written some of the most 363 00:19:09.000 --> 00:19:11.920 famous episodes of The Outer Limits and Star Trek and 364 00:19:11.920 --> 00:19:14.680 an iteration of the Twilight Zone in the eighties. 365 00:19:14.680 --> 00:19:15.440 I think so. 366 00:19:15.960 --> 00:19:19.160 Cub reporter Mark at Little Gannett newspaper in Indiana gets 367 00:19:19.160 --> 00:19:21.119 Ellison on the phone in the mid nineties and says, 368 00:19:21.519 --> 00:19:23.079 you made me want to be a writer. And he 369 00:19:23.160 --> 00:19:25.240 says right away, well see if that's a good or 370 00:19:25.240 --> 00:19:29.200 a bad thing. Jesus. When I finished the article that 371 00:19:29.240 --> 00:19:31.359 i'd called him for I sent him two copies of 372 00:19:31.400 --> 00:19:34.000 it for his records in C two as he specified, 373 00:19:34.000 --> 00:19:36.640 the full section not clipped, and I included some of 374 00:19:36.640 --> 00:19:39.480 my newspaper columns. I was nervous the next time we talked, 375 00:19:39.480 --> 00:19:42.480 but he said, you got Moxie kid, and we became 376 00:19:42.519 --> 00:19:44.839 friends until he died. There was nothing I wouldn't have 377 00:19:44.880 --> 00:19:46.759 done for the guy. I never knew my father, and 378 00:19:46.799 --> 00:19:49.160 it doesn't really take a bunch of brain power to 379 00:19:49.200 --> 00:19:52.039 do the math on that one. Among our adventures, I 380 00:19:52.119 --> 00:19:54.799 ran interference for him when the Science Fiction Hall of 381 00:19:54.839 --> 00:19:57.240 Fame people were trying to induct him in Seattle. He 382 00:19:57.440 --> 00:20:00.880 hated being ghettoized as justice science fiction, and he walked 383 00:20:00.880 --> 00:20:02.920 out of interviews with people who called him one. He 384 00:20:03.039 --> 00:20:05.640 especially hated the term sci fi. Can't tell you what 385 00:20:05.680 --> 00:20:07.599 he said it sounded like, but it was something dirty. 386 00:20:08.119 --> 00:20:10.279 But he was pleased to be recognized as one of 387 00:20:10.279 --> 00:20:13.240 the all time giants of it anyway. The one thing 388 00:20:13.400 --> 00:20:16.799 I never asked Harlan Ellison about was Dangerous Visions. It 389 00:20:16.839 --> 00:20:19.160 was a science fiction anthology that he edited, and he 390 00:20:19.160 --> 00:20:21.319 wrote introductions for it that blew your hair back as 391 00:20:21.400 --> 00:20:24.160 much as the stories themselves. The first volume had an 392 00:20:24.319 --> 00:20:27.039 absolutely seismic effect on the science fiction world. It was 393 00:20:27.039 --> 00:20:30.160 a landmark. It started a new wave, and the second 394 00:20:30.200 --> 00:20:33.119 volume just as good. But the third one he never 395 00:20:33.200 --> 00:20:36.359 finished it. People bugged him about it constantly for decades. 396 00:20:36.559 --> 00:20:38.960 Authors who contributed to it died, they never saw their 397 00:20:39.000 --> 00:20:41.960 stories published, and I never brought it up. Didn't want 398 00:20:41.960 --> 00:20:44.559 to set him off. We had plans go hang out 399 00:20:44.559 --> 00:20:46.519 at tanks, have hot dogs. He was going to show 400 00:20:46.519 --> 00:20:49.319 me his house in Sherman Oaks, he called Ellis in Wonderland, 401 00:20:49.359 --> 00:20:51.839
