Being back in places where you once lived or spent a lot oftime can do funny things to people. Caitlin lived in Los Angeles for four years and every time she is back in the city, something special happens to her. A longing for memories and could-have-beens flood her brain. In this episode, she talks about the complexities of her relationship with this place. In so many ways, this city shaped her. But, she still knew when it was time to leave. She wrestles with questions like “what does LA mean to me?” “why did I leave?” and “would I ever move back?’ At the end of the episode she interviews her 96-year-old grandfatherwho grew up in a rough part of Los Angeles. She asks him what this city meant to him then, and what it means to him now. Don’t hurry through this episode because grandpa gives us all some priceless wisdom that only someone who haslived as much life as him could behold. This episode is a bit different in style, but leaves you with the same familiar feel-good content you’re used to at The Good Stuff.

p.s. Grandpa is on oxygen 24/7, so that is the humming noiseyou hear.
