This program (available on Netflix) centers around a diner in Japan that's open from midnight to six a.m. and the stories of the people who visit it. The show is both interesting and meditative — each episode is self-contained, so you can pop it on any time, take a break for a couple of weeks, and it'll be there waiting to embrace you like a warm hug.

a delightful sci-fi audio drama about a mysterious diner that travels through time, space, and occasionally dimensions!!!!! incredibly well written, acted & produced - but especially acted. there are some moments where someone’s voice/delivery will just scratch my brain so perfectly <3333 also the characters feel sooo real…… aND it’s very found family heavy!! u can never go wrong with a bit of found family

Probably my favorite show of all time. I sleep to it and dream to it. The visuals are so wild and eccentric but fitting for the overall story and you can't really tear your eyes away. While the main content is like a podcast exploring different things like religion, death, meditation, etc. If that sounds like something you'd be into then for sure check out the show! To me it's a kin to a big warm hug coming from an extremely wise wizard.

I would recommend this entire show to anyone, but this episode specifically is about grief and love. It is a conversation the creator recorded between him and his mom before she died. This show was such a comfort for me right after my dad died.
Funny aside, I actually hung out with the creator for a weekend way back in 2007!

Of course, this perfect for doing anything shoe is no longer in production and requires a little eBay hunting to acquire. A precursor to the popular foraging-centric dad shoe, the Jungle Moc the Orbit Moc has a neoprene upper, making the shoe easy to put on and more attractive on foot. These babies are from the 90s, so the glue is a little touch and go — don't be angry if they start falling apart after a few wears. It's a little bit of a gamble leveling up your Merrell game.

If you're into coffee and have been to LA or dealt with someone from LA, you've probably heard of MARU. It's for a good reason. Maru coffee is delicious, and if you're able to get to the Los Feliz location, you can see some cool people getting off fits, a respite from the butt wipe tee and big hat culture of Venice and West Hollywood. The creme de la creme order is an iced americano with oat milk and an almond croissant (which is good enough to be a rec. on its own)
