Hey everybody, AJ Benzah here with fame as a bitch. This is your daily unfiltered podcast from February 25th, 2021.

Wow, what a day. You know, every day out here is 74 in sunny.

I didn't think about that when I wrote the book. That title to me signified the year 1974.

And I just thought, you know, it was summertime. So sunny, felt good. And the title seemed to stick.

But what beautiful weather here. Not that it's very different from where I was living before that.

But I don't know. It just feels a little more breezy. There's a lot of mountains around.

I like it very much. There's a store across the street, Galsons, which is an upscale grocery store supermarket.

And my God, you know, they've got this like marble and chrome railing where you can sit in each of salads or your, your, your fucking pizza that's made by the guy from Spago and you can just a big 60 inch TV screen.

You could watch something while you eat just a different part of California.

And I'm just waiting for a Kardashian or for Scott Disick to walk in there. It's that kind of store. Speaking of stores, you know, there's this new thing in New York City.

You know, New York City is known for the best pizza. I can certainly vouch for that.

John's pizza to me on Bleak is street downtown is hands down the best.

Only sell pies, not slices. I used to keep the crust in my pocket and eat it the next day. Just fantastic pizza and plenty of places to Tonos in Brooklyn.

Oh my God, to Tonos and Coney Island, Neptune Avenue. It's not there anymore.

To Tonos was an old lady in her husband, you know, basically pizza in New York. Five guys came from Sicily.

And they all naples or both and they all worked in one big pizza restaurant and eventually all five of them opened up different pizza reas in New York City and Brooklyn and I think Brooklyn, New York City and they became their families became the pizza families of New York.

It's a very, it's a very legendary tale that these five men all work together and then opened up their own joints and from John's pizza to Pat C's to I think our two rows, but to Tonos in Brooklyn was a place I had to try out.

I'm bringing this up because it's a story in the New York Post about this guy who's turning out pizzas in the best place, the best place to get pizza now is a place you can't even go

to eat. It's not a restaurant. You got to know how to get it. And apparently it's very distinct. The flowers imported from Italy. It's a rectangular shape. And you've got to go online through this website called unregulated pizza.com.

And there's a guy who's 30 years old who cooks Roman style pies in his Harlem apartment kitchen and they can only turn out three of four per week three of four per week. What the fuck are you doing? Turn out 10 a day three or four per week.

He can't be that passionate. I would not trust this pizza. But he's like, oh, it's so hard breaking. I can't provide more pizza for more people bullshit. You can't. I don't know what this guy does in his spare time.

In his spare time, but he came here in 2008. He studied chemistry and college and learned how to speak English was always drawn to restaurants. He took a job managing the Chipotle.
