With Jennifer Empty-Nesting in Europe, I Plate & Ponder with former Uber-Agent-now-turned-film-producer, Emile Gladstone, who recently moved to the South Bay after he and his family were directly affected by last year's tragic Palisades fire. Our multi-decade relationship has led to many-a-deep-conversations over hundreds of bottles of wine and cigars, and this discussion continued the tradition. While watching a terrific sunset and eating some spicy sausage pizza from REDWOOD PIES, we tackle:

A first-hand account of living thru the Palisades Fire's disruptive affect on so many...
Empty Nesting vs Being almost there...
Movie-making, and Emile's latest film...
Jeffrey Epstein...
The various challenges hitting the media business and so many other areas of daily life...
AI and how AI is shaping the world...
And a hopeful belief of where the future is going...

I hope you like these unique episodes while Jennifer travels the world. We plan to do many more, both together and solo.

And here's to the 41st market for our show... wherever it is, and whenever it comes!

(Note: A reference to an alleged drug bust in the early 1990's at WMA and the alleged source of those drugs suppled to the car valets involved were based on internal-company & external-industry hearsay. Neither of us remember the legal outcome, if any, of those allegations.)
