...Yawn Tomorrow (Our Final Topics)

About this episode

In their final research episode, the hosts cover various topics including a pie maker, a significant court case, a renowned author, and unrealized architectural plans in Los Angeles.

In this, our final research based episode, we're covering the last few topics we've always wanted to cover before it's too late and we're sealed up in our retirement pyramid. We'll be discussing pie maker Monroe Boston Strause (22:42), the court case of Perez v Sharp (35:27), Joan Didion (53:29) and things that were planned but never built around LA (1:27:04).
