  • 182. Los Angeles - Grand Central Market: Downtown LA's Beating Heart
    Nov 23 2025
    Step into Grand Central Market, the historic food hall that's been feeding Los Angeles since 1917. Johnny Mac guides you through the chaos and culture of this downtown landmark, from the moment you spot The Donut Man and that legendary Devil's Food donut to the perfect coffee pairing at nearby Blue Bottle. Explore vendor stalls spanning generations and continents – Sarita's Pupuseria serving the same food since 1976, Eggslut's Instagram-famous breakfast, Villa Moreliana's perfect carnitas, and everything in between. This is LA without the Hollywood gloss, a market where construction workers and tech bros share communal tables over food that spans the world.

  • 181. Channel Islands - California's Forgotten Wilderness
    Nov 16 2025
    The Channel Islands, where isolation meets adventure and California exists as it did before freeways and cities. Johnny Mac explores these remote islands accessible only by boat from Ventura Harbor, from the dramatic cliff-top trails of Anacapa to the sea caves and endemic island foxes of Santa Cruz. Discover world-class kayaking, snorkeling in kelp forests, primitive camping under stars you forgot existed, and hiking where the only sounds are waves and seabirds. Learn what it takes to reach these islands, what to bring, and why the effort delivers an experience that's increasingly rare – genuine wilderness within sight of Los Angeles.

  • 180. Solvang California - Denmark in the California Sun
    Nov 9 2025
    Welcome to one of California's most audacious experiments – a Danish village complete with windmills and half-timbered buildings, built in a valley where summer temperatures hit the nineties. Johnny Mac explores Solvang's pastries at packed Mortensen's Bakery, authentic sausages and German beer at Copenhagen Sausage Garden, year-round Christmas shopping, and live music at Solvang Park featuring Angie and the Nightmares. Discover why this theatrical town works despite (or because of) its absurdity, and why sometimes the best authenticity comes from complete commitment to an invented identity.
