Here we go; narrowing down the best pizza in Los Angeles. Why do we even do this to ourselves? For every joint that makes the list, there are three more we’ll feel remiss to have neglected. But we tried to narrow things down to 10 pizza places, spanning the creative to the classic. DeSano Pizzeria An authentic taste of Italy is guaranteed when you visit DeSano Pizzeria&nb...
Los Angeles has had more than its fair share of musical magic over the decades. This is the city where Dr. Dre prescribed a heavy dose of lyrical flow to an entire generation. It’s where Bowie succumbed to the pale stain of the Thin White Duke and Brian Wilson dropped acid to dream about California girls. LA incubated an especially virulent form of punk rock, made contagious by bands like...
Featured image credit: Ken Lund On a clear Los Angeles Day, you can see the Pacific Ocean glittering in the distance from the Griffith Observatory. And on the very clearest of days, you might even see a considerable landmass punctuating those gleaming waves. For a lot of Angelenos, this is their introduction to Catalina Island (formally known as Santa Catalina Island). In days gone ...
If you didn’t grow up in Los Angeles (or did so, but after 1989), then you likely missed out on a region-specific cultural phenomenon that found teenagers, industry insiders, and film buffs glued to their TV screens.

Aimed at eliminating hidden fees in ticket sales, the state attorney general has clarified it also applies to those obnoxiously unexpected fees commonly tacked...

Not to be confused with the Hollywood Castle where you can rent yourself into the monarchy for a night. Then there’s Glendora’s Rubel Castle, possibly the closest...
It’s a great time in California to own an ADU. Last year, our government made it easier than ever to build authorized accessory dwelling units (ADUs). But now, thanks to Assemblyman Phil Ting’s (D-San Francisco) recently drafted Assembly Bill 1033, it’s becoming just as easy to sell these units as ADU homes the way one would sell a condo. It’s a big step toward solv...
Featured image credit: Mwf95 Decades before 2019’s “raid” on Area 51, 2017’s Fyre Festival, 2015’s dress color debate, and let’s not forget this magic moment, one of the first internet phenomena caught the world’s attention with a resounding ring. It posed the question: “If a phone rings in the desert and no one is ...
Ideally, we’d like to work in a real estate industry in which everybody wins. Contingencies, when used in good faith, help us get closer to that goal. What are contingencies? Basically, they’re conditions that can be placed on a transaction that, if not met, invalidate the transaction. This definition probably paints more of an “everybody loses” scenario than one in...
