We're here in the IM studios in the heart of Los Angeles, and I'm ready.

I hope you are ready for this one.

Now, obviously, I'm an avowed lover of Los Angeles.

But historically, I get DM after DM from people, both from L.A., but especially outside of Los Angeles,

talking about what they hate about L.A.

So earlier this week, I dropped what many people consider a divisive L.A. in a minute episode,

five things people hate about LA.

Now, for the full top five, you can go check the episode, which by the way, had over

1,200 comments in the first 24 hours and counting.

And the data came from a story I put up on Instagram.

I asked people specifically what they hate about LA and I was overwhelmed

by the response. Now, my goal was to tabulate responses and make a top five list, which I did.

But let me tell you, I received almost 2,000 DMs in 24 hours. And reading and tracking these responses was a monumental task.

And I want to be clear, this is by no means scientific. You statisticians out there might

take issues with my methodology. But this was my poll and your poll. And the data was

accumulated fairly, at least by my standards.

I want to state the caveat that this was only an Instagram poll, so it was only answered by

people that see my Instagram stories, and it skews heavily towards people that live in

Los Angeles.

And though the number one was traffic, the responses that had the most vitriol, the most bite, where the hatred practically oozed

out of the DMs and threw my cell phone was us, the people.

People hate the people of Los Angeles.
