0:00.0	All right, here it is another Monday. It is what November 18th. Welcome aboard. If you're
0:07.8	just waking up, good morning. If you're at work, eating lunch, commuting, whatever you're
0:14.0	doing. Good afternoon. Good evening. Hello. Thank you for joining. Let the be talk for episode
0:20.8	number 503. My guest today is a fantastic human, Michael Maglieri. His family is three generations
0:32.8	of pure rock and roll, owners of the whiskey and the rainbow bar and grill. I cannot even tell you
0:42.0	how cool it was to do this episode. I sat down with Michael at the rainbow and we celebrated all
0:51.8	things rock and roll. Mostly we talked about the brand new documentary on the rainbow. It is out
1:00.9	right now. It's called the rainbow and it's on all the platforms. What is that? What do they call that?
1:09.3	Video on demand. That's me. This may be an old one. What are those kids called that? Video on demand?

1:59.2	are the kings of the sunset boulevard. You got to look at that. The whiskey, the rocksy and the rainbow.
2:08.2	All still standing. The whiskey is in the rock and roll hall of fame. And they have recently
2:14.9	made the rainbow and the whiskey historic landmarks. That is so monumental in what's going on in
2:24.9	this real estate climate of Los Angeles where they're just tearing shit down. We got, we got,
2:34.1	look what we got. We got the comedy store, which is just pure rock and roll. We have the whiskey,
2:40.6	the rocksy, the rainbow and the troubadour. They're still there. The viper room is hanging in by
2:48.1	the skin of its teeth. Tower records sitting there empty could easily be something cool like a
