Coming Back to LA Is Like Going to an AA Meeting

Walk-Ins Welcome 399

Bridget checks in from Los Angeles — where she's spending five weeks with family — and the city is not what she remembered. Empty storefronts on 3rd Street, deodorant locked behind glass at Walgreens, stores you have to get buzzed into, and a Hollywood Bowl 4th of July that felt more like a eulogy than a celebration. She and Maggie get into what it actually feels like to come back to a place you loved and see the decline in real time, why Texas feels so different, what a dead Vegas says about the country, and why the right needs to calm down about Christopher Nolan.
