Sometimes you just gotta get behind the mics and execute an audio download of the week and its affairs; so we did just that.

Join Randi & Frankie as they discuss a week of indulging in new restaurants and bars, getting a tattoo & covering a Grammy Awards event!

We also dig into a concept that has been on the minds of many; living a more "analog" lifestyle. Frankie & Randi discuss "touching grass," having a "dumb" phone & ditching screens to gain a deeper connection with loved ones & community.

We, of course, did some name dropping of great haunts in Los Angeles, and here's how to find them on socials.

Aly Rose's passion for the beauty industry was formed in her early years; just like many of us, the makeup of her family matriarchs was fodder for play; the difference with Aly was that by 7 years old, she had already mastered full beat makeup. She honed her skills, perfecting makeup looks for friends and family for events like dances, weddings and the like. She created a career path for her that led to becoming certified in theatrical makeup at Orange Coast College, and at the ripe old age of 16, she began a management career in beauty. Aly juggled her passion for beauty with higher education, studying Film, TV, and Public Relations at one of the most recognized universities, University of Southern California. During this time, she managed the Urban Decay counter, served as a lead makeup artist, and assisted with glamorous red carpet events. After earning her BA from USC, she was recruited by Victoria's Secret Beauty, where I had the pleasure of meeting and working with her, as she successfully managed a team of beauty specialists. Running into each other at a USC football tailgate and hearing about her plans of starting her own makeup artistry company was exciting and empowering; she truly was and is built for the beauty industry.

Aly has continued to empower women worldwide through her artistry. Along the way, she has conquered a battle with cancer, embarked on the journey of motherhood with two spirited boys, and embraced every day to the fullest. She is an inspiration, a mentor, and the future of makeup artistry.

In this episode, Randi talks to Battle and Randall of Blaec Elite DJs; but these two gentlemen are not just DJs. They are entrepreneurs who have built several businesses of their own, in addition to being mentors and developers for businesses around the world. They are insightful; operating on faith, trust and intention, with a healthy dose of radical kindness and positivity, they possess the desire to educate and leave everyone they connect with in a better space than before they met them.

En route to Benny Boy Brewing one day in June 2025, Frankie mentioned that there was a new DJ duo spinning that night, promising Classic R & B, Hip Hop, afro beats and more. We were ready for the vibes; but the vibes we arrived to? Immaculate. These guys brought style to the process; cozy stage, black leather couch, gnarled wood coffee table housing not only turntables and DJ equipment, but candles, incense, distinct spiritual sculptures. Essentially, a temple or shrine, if you will, to the music, the practice, the culture…and we were there for it.
