Transcript
0:03
Starting off the day with some
0:03
caffeine and some oceanic
0:06
arts, tropical decor. Or is it decor?
0:12
Decor decor. Welcome everyone. Adam or
0:15
should I say aloha everyone? Adam the
0:19
woo here. It's my second channel, daily
0:21
vlog channel. It's the daily woo. I
0:25
wonder if installing a waterfall in my
0:27
new homestead is allowed. They have to,
0:30
right? There's even there's even cute
0:32
turtles. Hey, how can you say no to
0:35
turtles or a lizard over there in the
0:38
corner just chilling? It's always a good
0:41
time hanging out with this guy. No, no,
0:43
not you. Not you, Jay. This guy here. I
0:46
haven't seen him in ages. How you been?
0:48
And speaking of turtles, this one is
0:51
gargantuan. Look, look at the size of
0:53
this thing. That's impressive. You going
0:56
to get yourself a puffer fish? Yeah. Do
0:58
you already have a puffer fish or this
1:00
will would this be your first puffer
1:02
fish? Puff puff puffer. That's very hard
1:05
to say. Fish purchase. Puffer. Say it
1:08
with me now. Puffer fish purchase. This
1:12
would be the inaugural puffer fish in
1:14
the january. You got to say purpose
1:15
though. You got no I can't even. Puffer
1:18
fish purchase. Say it. Puffer fish per
1:20
purchase. See, it's so hard. Without a
1:23
doubt, one of the most heavily tikied
1:26
areas you will find anywhere in the
1:31
retail world. A
1:33
plethora of good. Look at this. That is
1:38
a
1:39
huge head over there in the corner. And
1:41
I really like these skulls.
1:44
Artistically
1:47
painted. Man, these
1:49
are these are awesome. How you doing?
1:52
Now that I see them, I'm kind of leaning
1:54
towards the objects that are dangling
1:58
above us. These chandeliers made of
2:02
bamboo and wood prop. This guy's
2:05
sticking his tongue out at me. Don't do
2:07
that. That's very rude. It's good to see
2:09
after all this time they have one of the
2:11
props from Return to Gilligan's Island,
2:14
the TV show. I think that's what that
2:16
was used for, but it's still here tucked
2:19
away. tucked away over there in the
2:21
nether regions. So fascinating how these
2:24
are all handcarved and then painted.
2:27
That looks like a That's a happy guy. He
2:29
You should all take a lesson from him.
2:31
He is always in a good mood. These are
2:33
palm tikkis. And don't quote me on this,
2:36
but I think the wood that it is carved
2:39
into is made out of a palm tree. not for
2:44
sale, but there is an insane vast
2:48
collection of mugs. Jay, you consider
2:51
yourself a self-proclaimed afficionado
2:54
of collecting tiki mugs. What do you
2:57
think about this array of epicness in
3:01
front of you? This is pretty impressive.
3:03
Most yes impressive. Most impressive.
3:05
And while these are extremely beautiful,
3:08
there is an air of
3:11
creepiness to these fish. Look at Look
3:13
at this thing. This guy, man, that's a
3:16
that's a big one right there. I like
3:18
these a lot. Beach bum berry zombie
3:22
glasses. And the box is very retro
3:25
style. I would drink out of those. This
3:27
one serves double duty. Not only some
3:30
beautiful eye candy artwork, but also a
3:33
foliage planter up top. You could tuck a
3:36
fern right up there. This is a Tahesian
3:39
cannibal tiki. And I can see where it
3:42
gets its name cuz if you look
3:46
closely, it's devouring a
3:50
child. It has an infant in its grasp or
3:54
in its
3:55
teeth. Hungry fella. And I'm just now
3:59
noticing up above, dangling from the
4:03
rafters, is a
4:06
skeleton, a gorilla, a
4:09
shark. And look at this guy. I
4:12
originally heard of this place by my
4:14
good friend Justin Scard, who in fact
4:17
created this artwork of the owners, and
4:20
they have placed it on their walls.
4:22
Pretty awesome. I can relate.
4:25
I can
4:27
totally totally relate. In case you were
4:30
wondering how many movies and television
4:32
shows and whatnot that this shop has
4:35
created props for, here's a list. You
4:39
can see it's quite a few. Has little
4:40
Mickey ears on it. Is that from a
4:42
certain event? They have te day at
4:44
Disneyland Park. This one's from 2013.
4:47
Yeah, they have a whole bunch of them
4:49
here.
4:54
Looks as if you loaded
4:55
up. You went full tiki. It's got to go
4:58
tiki. Jingro is going to be all the
5:00
good. I can't uh I can't criticize
5:03
because I ended up getting this this bad
5:06
boy. I had to. And as amazing as this
5:10
is,
5:11
handcarved. Pretty incredible. I also
5:14
got this smaller one. And inside here is
5:16
a wooden cigar that fits right inside
5:21
his mouth above the skull belt buckle.
5:25
Do you even tiki, bro?
5:50
Time for a late lunch here at the
5:50
Citadel outlet Ruby's Diner. And they
5:53
have a vehicle perched in here with a
5:56
license plate that states their name. A
5:58
celebration is in order. 35 years this
6:02
place has been serving food. And even
6:05
though it is afternoon already, kind of
6:08
craving I'm kind of craving some
6:11
breakfast. Is it okay to eat eggs and
6:13
bacon and the likes of that afternoon?
6:16
It's always okay to eat eggs and
6:18
breakfast afternoon. And I also just
6:20
noticed up on the roof there are cloud
6:24
formation. Cumulan nimbus clouds.
6:27
Something you rarely see in LA are
6:30
clouds. So they have to create their
6:32
own. Oh, yes. All right, man. We'll see
6:35
you later. All right, Jay. Have fun on
6:37
that ticky stuff. I will. I'm going to
6:39
stand here on the side of the building
6:41
and wait for my Uber. He had other
6:42
places to be. It's just you and I,
6:44
buddy. You think you'll be comfortable
6:46
back there? I think you'll be
6:47
comfortable back there. Yeah. Yeah.
6:49
Yeah. I hope so. Riding in style. A
6:52
pretty good view of the skyline there.
6:54
Yeah.
6:55
Downtown. Made it back down to the
6:58
boulevard. And look who I met up with.
7:01
It's Jordan right here.
7:04
It seems as if the road is closed up
7:06
here. There's some sort of event going
7:08
on. The clues are getting more and more
7:10
great. The t-shirts these gentlemen are
7:13
wearing have spiders on them. And he is
7:17
scaffolding up the side of that ladder
7:20
like Spider-Man
7:21
himself. That's Is that sp No, I thought
7:25
it was Spider. Wait, wait, wait. It
7:27
might be. That might be Peter Parker
7:29
before he turns. Whoa. This is very
7:32
dangerous. Very Be careful up there,
7:35
Peter. There he is. There he is. He's
7:39
looking for where he's supposed to be.
7:41
It's Spider-Man. It's over here.
7:44
Spider-Man. The spot's right here. You
7:46
have this. He totally passed by it.
7:48
Ultimate fail. His Spidey senses must
7:51
have failed. How did he not see that?
7:53
It's so blatantly obvious. I think he
7:55
had a crime to solve.
7:58
on Hollywood. There's no crime here in
7:59
Hollywood.
8:02
Whoa.
8:04
Must be Burr Reynolds or Why is it not
8:08
say Burr? Why does it just say Burr?
8:10
Must be Burr. He's cold. Burr Reynolds
8:15
or something. I guess he's making his
8:17
own star.
8:19
I didn't I didn't know that was allowed,
8:21
but he's decided to make his own star. I
8:24
still feel like this guy needs a name.
8:26
this dinosaur popping out of the top of
8:29
Ripley's. Let's give him a name. Let's
8:33
give him a name. This is kind of
8:34
unusual, but I have ran into Larry Green
8:38
here on Hollywood Boulevard, famous from
8:40
the Howard Stern Show. How come you're
8:42
not holding a sign? You're not You're
8:43
not You're not promoting Howard tours
8:45
also. Yeah. Do you still hold the Howard
8:48
for President? When's the last time you
8:49
saw him? Uh I haven't been on I don't
8:52
hold the signs much anymore. No. No, but
8:55
