Hollywood loves a good ghost story, so we're going to take you to some of the most famous haunted sites in the city and introduce you to some famous spirits. From Marilyn Monroe at the Roosevelt Hotel, to some ghosts from LA's earliest days at Pico House, to Jim Belushi and the great hauntings of the Sunset Strip.

On its face LA’s architecture looks like a collection of various styles - pockets of neighborhoods with interesting design but little context. But scratch just below this surface and you’ll find the story of 100 years of LA’s history built into these walls. LA came to be defined by a singular industry with the power to shape it - Hollywood. This influence, from the art deco 20s, to the futuristic 70s, not only built these pockets of style but also filtered out to the rest of America through the big screen. In this episode we’re going to explore some of the masterworks created here - both in real life and on that big screen.

In the second part of our series on the crimes that changed Los Angeles we’re going to explore an era when LA of modern Hollywood came into its own, and the flip-side to that glamorous life-styles-of-the-rich-and-famous image. The story of the Menendez brothers defined both sides of LA during the 1980s. Then fast-forward to the 90s, when these brothers will cross paths with the man whose televised courtroom trial set the stage for how we think about true crime entertainment today - O.J. Simpson.

Like the people who populate this city - the crimes that happen here seem fit for the big screen. In a place full of cameras, paparazzi, and superstars - it makes sense. If you take a survey of the most infamous and well-known crimes and trials of the century - the ones seared into your memory like that nondescript condo entrance - a considerable handful of them are a product of the City of Angels.
In Part One, we’ll dive back into LA before television, to a murder that changed the city - the murder of the Black Dahlia. Then we’ll jump forward to the far-out 60s to when a very different kind of story took what LA was and turned it upside down - the murders of Charles Manson and the Manson Family.

Los Angeles has long been home to the glamorous Hollywood lunch - and we’ll tell you about these old Hollywood standards - but these days the most exciting food in LA is also really, really good food. In a city that is constantly coming up with what’s new and trendy it’s no surprise that the food has followed. We’re going to explore what’s “new” in new California cuisine, from the fusion that created Korean BBQ tacos, to how to do sushi, to where the hottest chefs go shopping for produce.
