On this episode of #SoLA, Charlie and Camille get fit (doing bicep curls of rosé) with Charlie’s trainer- and friend!- Keith Reams. They talk about all sorts of LA topics: traffic, how to wake-and-bake, The Noise of Life, similarities between personal trainers and private investigators, intrinsic vs. extrinsic goals, and using bear spray as a weapon. They discuss Keith’s world travels, and Charlie quitting the spiritually empty world of show business to become a professional weight-lifting. They also mention Fellini’s Satyricon, Seven Samurai, On the Road, and, most importantly, the Goop podcast (Hi, Oprah!). Throw that scale away, folks! Drink lots more water- and canned rosé!

On this episode of #SoLA, Charlie and Camille discuss L.A.’s favorite activity- movie-going! They talk about all their favorite theaters (the Arclight, the Vista, the Landmark, The Egyptian, the New Beverly, as well as Cinespia, drive-ins and the Rooftop Cinema Club), Movie Pass Mania, and theater-going fads like 4DX, Cinerama and 3D. Black Panther, It’s A Wonderful Life, Amélie, Shampoo, Reds, Jiro Dreams of Sushi, Searching for Sugarman, The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, Wrath of Khan, the movies of Daniel Day Lewis and David Fincher, various Planet of the Apes films, The Secret of Nimh and Ralph Bakshi all come up. There are also forays into the cracks in the Matrix, lots of Alien News, Atlantis, the unsolved mystery of Natalie Wood, and Randy Newman’s sudden interest in his royalties, but, mostly… #SOLA is back, baby! 

On this episode of #SoLA, Charlie and Camille continue to alienate what’s left of their dwindling listeners with a meandering, rather pointless episode about nothing. Well, not nothing. Jeff Sessions is back, Gwyneth Paltrow stops in, and Charlie introduces a new character, The Garfield Purist- not to mention The Musical Artist Chaz, who is up to his usual shenanigans.  Charlie tries to ruin Battlestar Gallatica again, Camille rants about Eyes Wide Shut, Charlie takes a controversial position on Tom Cruise, and the two discuss their favorite L.A. crimes. If you’re still listening (you’re not), thank you.

On this episode of #SoLA, Zig is “sick” so Charlie and Camille have to record in their living room. It’s weird. And mostly about Wiley Wiggins. And Jeff Sessions! Who stops by for a chat. They hear helicopters and some weird house noises, try not to annoy their neighbors, and work their hardest to get into that L.A. Mindset. Turns out it’s all just a dream of Charlie’s, but if you’ve been listening… that’s probably no surprise. The dream-like nature of this episode leads to discussions of Philip K. Dick and Arthur C. Clarke, Ex Machina, Battlestar Gallactica (no spoilers!), the Blade Runner series (Lt. Decker even stops by!), Scanner Darkly, and the Back to the Future/Godfather mashup everyone’s been waiting for. Hands Off, Hollywood! 

On this episode of #SoLA, Charlie, Camille and their friend, Chris Kula, return to deliver the very necessary sequel to The Road to Cracker Barrel, Part 1! Turns out California’s first Cracker Barrel was far more  popular than any of them had anticipated- after learning the wait for a table was three hours long (!), it becomes a roadtrip to the Victorville Habit Burger. As they travel the Cajon Pass back into Los Angeles, they discuss what they would have ordered at Cracker Barrel, the pros and cons of Burbank, how to do Vegas buffets, tips on how to eat Protein Style at In and Out, and their now-irrelevant Oscar picks: Trashy Lady Skates, Lady F**ks a Fishman, Armie Hammer Is Gay, White People Aren’t Just Bad They’re Evil, and Gary Oldman Begs for an Oscar. It’s about the journey, not the destination, y’all. 

On this episode of #SoLA, Charlie, Camille and their friend, Chris Kula, record their first remote episode on a Beamer roadtrip to beautiful, downtown Victorville and California’s first Cracker Barrel! They talk a lot about the Cracker Barrel experience: country fixins’, “vegetable” plates, down home fun, and other Southern classics like veiled racism and Civil War reenactments! There are lots unexplained references to people only they know, but also lots of discussions about great day trips from LA: Palm Springs, Santa Barbara, Catalina Island (go for free on your birthday!), the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library, and Vegas, baby! Tune in next week to hear all about the “LA area” Cracker Barrel and, in the meantime, listen to Slow Burn (a podcast where they aren't talking about the difference between pizza and flatbread).

On this episode of #SoLA, Charlie and Camille finally have another guest on- and they go heavy on getting light! Founder of Eat Cute, nutritionist Alex Catalano teaches Charlie and Camille everything they are doing- and eating- wrong. It’s all very #soLA. After discussing Los Angeles locales like Bulletproof Coffee, Cafe Gratitude, and The Griffith Observatory, Alex talks about bone broth, yoni eggs, “butter coffee”, the pros and cons of paleo, the importance of blood sugar, making your own nut milk and one of the best life hacks ever (thank you Starbucks!). Camille asks “what is a jade roller and why do I need one?”; Alex says “sugar is a drug”; and Charlie says “Fuck zoodles”. Sponsored by Yellow Number 5.

On this episode of #SoLA, Charlie and Camille celebrate Valentine’s Day, only Charlie is maybe not in the mood. Nevertheless, these two smug marrieds discuss romantic movies like Casablanca, Titanic, Out of Africa, West Side Story and Point Break; Meet Cutes; dating in Hollywood; Cary Grant vs. Jimmy Stewart; and, of course, great routes out of downtown Los Angeles. They also discuss Gunga Din and George Stevens’ influence on Steven Spielberg and romantic comedy favorites: Bringing Up Baby, The Philadelphia Story, L.A. Story. Happy Valentine’s Day from Hollywood! 

On this episode of #SoLA, Charlie and Camille eventually get around to discussing what it is to be “in your disease”: crippling self-doubt, body dismorphia, thriving in chaos, hypochondria, and other fun topics everyone will enjoy! They talk about Hollywood, the city of broken people, Charlie throws down on Kia drivers, Camille is still working on her voice over career, and Charlie finally tells his long-awaited Ham Store story. They also discuss Fishing With Dynamite, Dance Dance Party Party, We Need to Talk About Kevin and Charlie’s show Bald Talk, coming soon to the UCB Comedy School on Sunset.

On this episode of #SoLA, Charlie and Camille decide to discuss L.A. Winter only to discover the topic is as fruitless as the season. Nevertheless, they persisted. They discuss the cold temperatures (it’s down to the mid-50’s at night!), Charlie’s cool-ass winter sweaters, and the overabundance of heat lamps. They also mention Bay Cities Italian Deli, Malibu Seafood and give the Burbank Airport the official #SoLA endorsement. Since they never got sponsors, they created their own- and hope to fuel Camille’s voice-over career in the process. Brought you to by Zig’s Hankerchiefs! #SoLA, it’s anti-comedy!
