Alors que je descendais d’avion tout à l’heure, mon émission Basta Now spéciale L.A. passait sur LYL Radio ; on peut maintenant l’écouter ici.

They say nobody walks in L.A. but they do, only they walk dogs so the dogs walk them – only they need an excuse to walk so they can smell the million flowers blooming in the streets, feel the sun wash their skins, and listen to the helicopters tracing curves in the spotless sky. They say everything is fun, only they walk dogs so they have a reason to talk to someone who also walks dogs in the boundless city. They walk with oat latte, with matcha, with kombucha in cups as big as bottles to make the walk last longer. When we pass each other, I smile at them: after all, we are electrons in the same particle accelerator. Some smile back. Our sorrow is as endless as summer.
