Welcome to the bad broadcast. I name is Maddie. I'm your host. I am wrapping up my trip to L.A.

And it's just been absolutely lovely. I went to Max and

Helens this morning. If you don't know what it is. Okay, so Nancy Silverton, who started, I think her

first venture was LaBreya Bakery and then she's done a million things since then. You've probably

seen her on chef's table. Anyway, this is her new restaurant. It's like a diner vibe.

It's in Larchmont. And I'd been seeing it on TikTok and I knew I wanted to go in today's my last morning. So I wanted to go over and get in line and just see what all the hubbub was about. And I got in line at like 7.30. I got right in when they opened and I sat at the bar.

I had like a lovely communal breakfast with strangers because everybody at the bar was by themselves and we just chit-chatted.

And. opened and I sat at the bar. I had like a lovely communal breakfast with strangers because everybody at

the bar was by themselves and we just chit-chatted. And it was really, really great. I was sitting there and I was

like, this would be my dream to own a restaurant like this, like a very classic diner vibe with

I'm usually fine to eat by myself, but I want to take it back to my hotel room.

And to go. I didn't want to sit down and eat by myself there. I don't know why. I'm usually fine to eat by myself, but I wanted to take it back to my hotel room. And I was driving home and it was in my, I got like a hot lot, you can get a hot or cold lobster roll. And it was hot. And then I reached in the bag and like my hand touched like a wet lobster lump. And it just, I don't know, through the experience for me. But then I got back and we locked in and it was great. And oh, we went to Mamie, I think is how I've seen people calling

it Mammy or Mammy, M-A-M-A-M-I-E, amazing Italian sandwiches. So really the food's been great and it's

been fun to come out. I came out by

myself and just, you know, got a little break before the holidays and I'm excited. So anyway,

let's get into today's episode last week, which I recorded yesterday. I was fired up. We were

complaining. We were hating everything about the holidays. And I promised you this week we would really
