 Ladies and gentlemen, Simon Mike another vlog welcome another beautiful day in paradise, Los Angeles I decided to meet up with the homegirl boom boom fam But I call her boom Stacey D seen her on the grams for a while She's been an internet friend. So we both decided that we're gonna hang out when I was in LA We talked about perhaps doing a workout, but then we both ended up being lazy So no workout happened and then me and Connor had the plan the miraculous plan that if I was a real content creator That we would go to the content creator spot in LA the mural on Melrose this mural in LA Yep, it's restricted to influencers only and only those with 20,000 followers or more that's a lot or if you don't have that many followers you have to be verified There was something in like USA today vice all over Instagram that you had to have 20,000 followers or that magic blue check mark and you could go take a picture with this actually kind of ugly mural We were a little late to the game a little late to the game It turned out that it was a publicity stunt by the one and only Dylan Francis Dylan P. S. Side note Dylan we're gonna be playing fortnight together eventually. So might as well just hop on Let's let's where we're dropping boys. You know what I mean? Dylan Francis has a show coming out on HBO So he decided to do this little publicity joke because he's kind of like the anti You know office the anti YouTube. It's kind of the anti normie. It's I kind of like to think I'm the same thing We like to not take ourselves too serious and not take what we do so serious You know people ask me all the time like what do I do like look man? I put my face on the internet and for some reason these beautiful beautiful people who I am grateful for watch me That's literally what my life turned into or what do you do? Oh, I record my voice I put it on the internet and these beautiful beautiful people support me and listen to me Thousands upon thousands of people do it and I'm blessed and grateful but I'm still confused And I think Dylan Francis although he's a DJ and has like kind of a real talent I think he's still kind of confused or like likes to poke fun and not take himself serious at the entire world that we Kind of live in and me Omar Bart the whole crew that's why we get along as I think we're kind of like that way We don't take ourselves or what we do too serious. So I want to see this influencer thing I want to do a picture. I have briefly spoke to and talked to Dylan Francis manager shout out to Mike Met him one time at Reebok and so I wanted to tag them and just make a joke whatever So first we ended up just heading out to the Grove, which is very near to that area and I didn't know how close it was But we ended up just grabbing some food hanging out the Grove is a super cool mall out in LA It's like outdoor mall as you would think LA palm palm trees everywhere beautiful people everywhere All the kind of shopping you want to do plus on the back end They kind of have this farmers market, which is the outdoor farmers market and it's dope It's one of my favorite spots. I've been there a couple times you kind of get any food It just happened that the England World Cup game was going on at the second So people were wiling out as cool see a Lot of people out in LA it's a cool spot because I think everyone It's kind of like on a mission in LA in a way And some people might be treading water a little bit But everyone's trying to go somewhere rather than the typical nine-to-five city or the typical, you know Stuck in a rut kind of city. So there's people out even though it's the middle of the day on like a Tuesday So we walked around the farmers market a little bit grab some food And then we decided to head over to my hipster verse. You guys know me. I like some clothes I like some sneakers and it's right by Fairfax. So I did a little bit of shopping I ended up really not buying anything but Supremes out there diamonds out there the hundreds is out there all those kind of clothes Which I've been into probably since about junior year of high school, which to date myself was like 2005 I've been into sneakers my whole life Since I like basketball since fourth grade where I got my like my first pair of Iversons But I really just got into the kind of hype beast vlog and street work culture along with the hip hop and sneaker culture Probably junior year of high school and I've kind of loosely followed it I'm getting more back into it now, but I've loosely followed it for yeah over a decade I guess so stop by those places and little did I know that mural was right there So we try to map it we try to figure it out. There wasn't any direct directions It just kind of said the general area was in so we ended up Comparing a picture that was next to it and it had already gotten painted over one that there's a security guard there That was supposed to check your check mark and your 20,000 followers Which I just thought would be so funny the vlog because it's so so stupid And funny at the same time, but but that person was already gone But also the murals gone so I just took a picture with a regular mural insert photo here And then we had some time to burn my homie Jake from barben.com who's done a bunch of articles with me He basically covers all strength sports and coaches and lifters and stuff like that So we've done some some content together. He's from New York I meet up with him every time in New York super nice, dude Was here for the meat also and we didn't really get to hang out because he was competing full power And as you guys saw I was kind of competing if you want to call it that And we want to meet up with dinner one of my favorite spots la la's arachan tight and grill But we had some time to burn so we ended up going to Hollywood But it was what the Museum of illusions and it's basic is shit and concept but pretty damn cool So they paint these murals that had a 3d effect when you stood on a certain point and took a picture and then with Perspective and art it make you look like you're on top of lava or or looking underneath Marilyn Monroe's dress or whatever might be insert pictures Make them look cool cool little montage. So that was cool. That was good waste of time I like doing little touristy things like that although Hollywood is so touristy nowadays And kind of ugly to be honest It's cool. Just to walk around hang out go to the gift stores Whatever, you know, so then we ended up going to our fun time grill la la's kind of move What are we gonna eat tells that we're gonna eat some steak Do our arachan time grill and everyone's like, what do you always do like our shit's pretty traditional, but we're known for our steak We have shit ton of cows and the most delicious meat you've ever had in your life So Jimmy tree something that is like a little bit unique to us a lot of people eat empanadas But empanadas are pretty unique to us That's about it. Nothing that fancy What else my mom makes Some basic stuff, but like it I've never had Argentinian food. Really. It's just taking potatoes up That's what I mean, but like what you mature you need to have it in Argentina I've been here so many times on the vlog What's your favorite kind of food then? Mexican food like what give us a okay So my favorite food are nachos and that's what I had even like Mexican. It's not real. Okay, it's like fake Mexican It's like Mexican-American yeah, which I love because if I'm gonna have real Mexican food, then I'll just go to like Mexico I get what here over there I love tacos because all their tacos are the same like la tortilla in the carnet But like there's different like flavors and then they put like different like Juices on the street taco though just like meat with some like people and that's there's like no There's like birria carne asada There's like how the different things that you can have and you wouldn't even know the difference unless you went over there So why don't you go go there get some and bring it back to me by the time I brought tacos back This is in a lot. It would be so soggy grab the good meal. Love me some steak and potatoes can't really go wrong So then we ended up rolling back to Barbara Gade and of course, you know, I lost my ice cream There's a place down here called salt and straw Looking for a good time Come on Joe pick up Yeah Hello, we're calling for the good time It is originally from Portland I believe there's actually a bunch of cool like hipster ice cream spots coming up in the West Coast and I love me so much So we ended to go in there shout out to the homie who got the hookup He's on the kaizen programs and I got some kind of gooey brownie cookie Shit on a cone and it was delicious end up with the stomach egg diet starts tomorrow hashtag. You guys know it But that pretty much wrapped the day was dope fun both Shout out to the homies super cool kicking with her a lot of fun positive vibes And that's kind of what I look at the people one someone who doesn't take themselves too serious to someone who's driven in three So I was good vibes positive vibes and she's all that so she can she can be one of the homies for sure Be sure to check out her YouTube though She drops some vlogs here and there and also her Instagram appreciate you guys solid Mike videos every Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Saturday Sunday Streams as long as I'm not traveling five days a week Twitch dot dot TV slash solid Michael 2k's and the number two mama's voice podcast Tuesday Friday new episodes I'm out of here appreciate you Thank you for coming to Mike's channel.
