Martine Speaks

Martine remarks on the unusually high winds in LA, the benefits of unplugging from media during a power outage (provided your phone still has a charge), contemplates life as a Kurt Russell movie, muses on the 405, and scopes out Teslas on the road.

Martine enjoys a thoughtful post-performance drive back to the city, commenting on how to entertain the kids of today and how it was in her day, trying out nicotine gum, F-bombs, and Trump's somewhat inconveniencing visit to LA on the way to Calexico.

Martine engages in hipsterism, talks about the IKEA feels, has a Natalie Portman sighting, celebrates Holi and assures everyone that LA driving speak is very much like SNL's "The Californians."

Martine teaches voiceover acting to the "yoots," weighs in on the proliferation of foodie spots in DTLA, the annoyance of daylight savings, and enjoys a nice kouign-amann and a bit of road rage.

Martine works on increasing her accent repertoire, addresses the myth of the "one Canadian accent," marijuana ads, the necessity of being a multi-professional without breaking your soul, and defensive driving in LA.

Martine on her Oscars recap, the budget casinos on traffic-ridden drives to dance shows in Orange County, coffee and adultcon.

Martine waxes on about the intricacies of voice-over work, unprecedented cold snaps in California and idiot drivers in LA.

Martine talks about the importance of acknowledging global warming, is irritated with LA drivers in the rain and looks forward to her trip to Toronto.

Martine remarks on celebrity life, sightings of John Hamm, Jason Statham and Ethan Hawke, and the quirks of Los Angeles neighbourhood pronunciations.

Martine muses on rain, soft scrambles, the Super Bowl, and quality time during the internet apocalypse.
