Wah wah - Bought tickets to see the Fifth Element in theater for tonight - but was refunded a few weeks ago because the theater closed. Fandango app didn’t get the memo.

I'm now entering the great lockdown-era cocktail experiment pics from my "other place" data download. This is by far the tastiest Bloody Mary ever. We cribbed it while in NOLA in 2018. The secret is the Cajun Bait seasoning and Truff hot sauce.

10 years ago at Nobu by Petco Park during a Padres game. Place was empty, so the Sushi chef made me custom roll after custom roll with very pricey Sake and drained my bank account. I then stumbled over to "Drunkin Donuts" and washed all that pretension down with bourbon donut holes. Yes. I did.

Today’s Atmos Theater test went perfectly - the translation from nearfield to Cinema was pretty great. I’ll make a few mix tweaks - but they are the opposite of what I expected - I’m gonna be bolder with some choices. Thanks to Princess Kara Parker-Smith for listening with me.

Our Theatrical Atmos test of Love In Gravity podcast failed on Monday. Thanks to troubleshooting by ADS Hollywood and some last minute magic by Tom @Dolby and I’m back in theater today for test #2 in advance of our premier next week.
