Tour Producer

L.A. Meekly
L.A Meekly is a monthly podcast on Los Angeles history put out by Daniel Zafran and Greg Gonzalez, two homegrown Californians with a penchant for morbid historical facts and sleazy donuts. They started L.A Meekly in 2013, and since then have covered topics such as the history of Venice Beach, the Pacific Electric trolleys, the Original People of Los Angeles, and tales of hauntings. Historic, yes. Comedic, somewhat. Listenable, quite.

Grand Central Market, Clifton's Cafeteria
Best time of day
Best before it gets dark out. Be hungry for afterwards: there are good places to eat you'll want to revisit.
Precautions
There is a large homeless population around but nothing to be worried about. General precautions for any major city apply.
Generally entertaining
I listened without walking the tour but enjoyed it nevertheless
