this is Los Angeles prostitutes influencers when I die sub to the only fans sex dungeons one of my friends who came to this party Mayo he is like a decently popular like content creator what's his name money but amidst all the supercars mansions and boob jobs lies a much darker side of La they don't show you on the tourist buses how is it being homeless out here in La best place to be home yeah with over 75,000 homeless people La homes costing nearly $1 million on average and rent up 14% since just last year people
are doing whatever they can to survive out here including selling their bodies on the streets of figuro so I met up with local Street photographer and La native Andy to introduced me to some women selling cookies who definitely weren't Girl Scouts we are in figuro Ash cheeks straight in our face 5 minutes in we got some Glitz and glamour on the streets right here there an exchange gone wrong bikini on the ground everyone knows about figuro if you're from LA right why doesn't La do anything about it here's the problem they already know that it's
an ongoing issue our jail system is overflooded if we can control a flame and keep it contained here yeah then it's okay for us as far as like the city goes but if we were to lock up every single pimp and prostitute and John that's out there that's fair where the are we going to house them at where are we going to put them at the [ __ ] County Jail's already full of [ __ ] so it's one of those things containment the same thing that they're doing with the homeless they're doing with the
prostitution problem one may argue let the girl sell her cooch question is though is she selling the cooch of her own accord is she being trafficked let's just say we have prostitutes out there that are are are paying off a debt that's the scary part is because you don't know if it's somebody that's underage being forced into it you know you unfortunately you got [ __ ] people that are willing to pay for that out here but yeah we hope that that's not what's going on see a lot of these guys are are spotters too

your name I'm Amaya pink honey pink honey how long have you guys been doing this almost 9 years now that's a long time not just on the street but the massage parlers at the strip club everywhere I enjoy the money that I make and the people and the interactions that I have out here good money of course I wouldn't be out here if I wouldn't night on a good night a could probably see at least $15 to $2,000 now that's if you're working all day that's not only night time that's daytime and night time at
the end of the day we've been doing this we've been down for it so we going to keep being down for it till we get to where we're going where you trying to go where am I trying to go I'm trying to go to law school so I'm in you're using this to fund your your law school Venture I'm in college right now and how old are you 27 so you've been doing this since you're 18 yep and what about you how long have you been doing this I've been doing this since I was 12
I'm 26 12 yeah and you sold yourself to like adult men yep I did what I had to do but at the end of the day uh it really changed my outlook on men Now That I'm Older honestly sometimes I have to tell them that I'm younger because these men out here really want younger girls the younger you are the better so honestly me right here with my little ponytail right here I'm going get picked up 10 times more than I am with a bust down weave right now because they like real young girls all
right what is your name jazz jazz yes Jazz how long have you been doing this and how old are you I've been doing this for 6 months so I'm new to the game I'm fresh so let me ask you 6 months in how do you like the job do you see yourself doing it for much longer yeah I like it it's ups and down to this but at the end of the day the money is how much you make in a month 3 to 5,000 a month a month yes depending on how long I stay
outside like sometimes I like really like to I like me personally like the daytime do the feds even care cuz obviously figuro is known for this right more or less they care we came from a generation where they used to take us to jail just for standing out here now girls don't get picked up at all unless you're a minor so that's really what they're on the feds really do care about the miners they really do care about cleaning it up you know what I'm saying I like that I'm about to go do a call
I have an out call so I'm going to somebody's house for sex for money all right coaching girl she's gone well it was a pleasure of me to be safe okay so you're making 3 to 5K a month how much you make in a fun may ask a month sure it just depends probably like a good 2500 just curiosity have you ever thought about doing something else making the same money elsewhere doing something else yeah but I feel like it's you got to spend money to make money at the end of the day like do
have talents I I could cook I'm a chef I want to soon to have a restaurant and sell plates and a food truck and stuff like that but at the of day I have to have money to invest in that so 6 months in how many more years do you see yourself doing this after a year I don't want to do this well obviously you're very smart right do you ever think like why am I doing this or is that not a thought like and not a lot of people help me like you know I
don't have a lot of help or or a team like a support system like you know so I have to do what I have to do to get buying life you know and yeah I am sometimes I'm as shamed then sometimes I am embarrassed but like it just is what it is I have to do what I have to do because who's going to pay my bills that's a fair point right how many people will you end up meeting today and doing something with uh as many as I can so 10 20 100 I wish
I hope I've never got that many people you ever go home and cry afterwards or is it just kind of a disconnect to be honest with you yes I do I do cry about this cuz it's like I don't want to do this and most girls probably wouldn't tell you that cuz the most girls out here do like this they like what they do you know but they they were very empowered and they wanted to tell you know don't make a long time like you know me thanks for sharing is there any last thing someone
should know about the job you do and the place R figure off my last words would just be like don't judge us cuz you never know what somebody goes through and yeah we do what we have to do okay you be safe all right thank you you have a great night see you you have a good night bye Jazz well some of these girls claim to feel empowered and strong selling their bodies on the streets I couldn't help but feel bad that some of these girls felt that this was their only option to make money
and have been doing it it since they were literal children Figaroa was my first glimpse into the city that has prioritized the pursuit of money at all costs and the consequences of fatherless single mother households and a morally bankrupt culture pedestal in Role Models like sexy red and I spice preaching the power of spreading your cooch for some coin but what makes La so jarring is the fact that Hollywood and the countless movies they've made has depicted the city as the land of Fame Fortune and opportunity I headed to Skid Row the exact opposite of
the LA I was shown on the big screens growing up and home to roughly 4,400 of the estimated 75,000 homeless people in LA county last time I came here was almost a year ago with my friend Kevin a leading expert in homelessness and drug addiction who was forced to do meth in a tent after we lost him out on the streets let's see how the community of skid row was doing today a lot of these people are drug users they don't come from Bad families though you got family members that are offering them a home
jobs they just simply don't want to take it I would agree a lot of people I've talked to have said I don't want your help I want to be left alone and I want to do drugs and a place like Skid Row is uh a perfect place to do that California has 51% of the outstanding homeless population the question becomes at a certain point why what magnetizes people to come here to establish those black buildings this is all vacant for leas 14,000 sare ft we're seeing vacant building vacant building vacant building but it didn't take
long for even Andy to get sketchy looks from the local homies who ran the block so what's going on you getting you got guys letting us know where they're where we're at what neighborhood we're in by virtue of Association I'm a Target too no you're fine actually you're good like little white boys cool they won't think we're we're part of the same gang but we're chilling in the alley together well look at the alley the St your average alley okay so we gave you the car key just now because if you do get pressed you
should dip I don't want to get if you're feeling sketch we can just meet up later no no you guys you guys just genuinely no no you guys are fine I don't want to get you shot I'm being serious I didn't know this a thing okay let's go people are going home no no you you go wherever you you like don't let me get you in trouble I'm going to keep going okay no no you keep doing your thing smoking an apple can I see it cool what is it just Apple bro she smoking an
apple yeah what are your thoughts on skid R hopefully it fixes itself soon yeah should be better you think it needs to be redeveloped or should it stay the same it needs to get better I don't know they're building buildings but doesn't get rid of the people so by people he's talking about the countless homeless and often mentally ill people on the streets with some form of substance abuse issue so we're basically asking people how it is out here in Skid Row what are your thoughts skid R skid r here how long you been out
here I've been out here a while it get pretty intense right yeah when uh I give you when you get one cl you can't get that's only problem you got no money you got nothing you got nothing com you got money out here I'm getting cat cold right now sir listen we're doing a school project I'm dead meat I will see your ass then I'll see you in court take it take it easy tiger famously in 1972 when local businesses and City officials wanted to bulldoze Skid ow redevelop the land and push the undesirable human
elements out skidrow activists and residents of other neighborhoods who didn't want these undesirables in their neighborhood helped come up with the infamous containment plan the goal called to push missions Charities public restrooms benches and homeless services within the newly drawn borders to help keep these poor undesirable people in basically the activists wanted to preserve the community of skido from being bull and the low-income housing it provided even if this containment plan sounded inhumane in 1976 La adopted the plan and Incorporated additional strategies like excessively bright prison lights and patrolling police officers who were known to
stop you if you exited the Zone's borders and look sketchy and in a few years skidrow became the place to go if you were homeless due to the abundance of meals showers and bathrooms and hospitals even began discharging patients to Skid ow if they didn't have an address while the reputation of housing homeless and mentally ill people since the70s has maintained how was the community the activists fought to preserve in the' 70s still looking today ghetto as hell but okay it is what it is though you know well I worked over here bro is it
safe or no go find out I've been here what let me ask you this what time does it get a little sketchy oh anytime it can get sketchy yeah anytime it can get sketchy but it it all depends on how you are I'm I'm a chill dude for the most but I have a camera that's the big Clincher right I'm trying to capture this be a problem yeah it's just haunted and Wicked Man it's wicked I feel like there's some satanic like demonism at play a little bit is it dangerous set now out night out
here no as long as you stay still but if you go somewhere or something you got to be care of is it dangerous out here uh I don't know maybe uh what I listen about this area is very dangerous area but visiting no I go for work in this walk in skro yeah why just for the thrill because just for interesting I was in San Francisco in tenderloin you know you do vlogs videos no no no no no I uh when you try to film uh many people uh start to scream and literally moments later
one lady did not like the side of my camera and several other homeboy stood up and told me to come over oh okay my bad just okay all right all right all right all right all right all right okay who just look at ice cream we're good oh sh the all right I got to get out of here so what I've learned is that Reagan more or less shut down the mental institutions which reduced the ability for a lot of these people to get housing and the psychiatric care they need so unfortunately it results in
this you have people on the ground literally on cardboard this is as sad and as inhumane as it gets I believe and there is a makeshift weapon it seems with the activist in the' 70s fighting to preserve low-income housing and the community of skid R I wondered why there were still countless people living on the sidewalks 50 years later where was all this low-income housing and was homelessness a part of the community they sought to maintain and with an approved $783 million budget to combat homelessness in 2024 in LA county where was that money going
my name is uh Diamond D Diamond D know what I'm saying and um I'm really you know under certain uh sacrifices because you know I'm an American you know but why do I do they have to treat us like this why do they have us on the sidewalk when we supposed to be living in luxury that's what I wanted to ask you I saw that Tower why can't you live in there because they didn't put me there yet why not because they say um you know it's not available right now we all full but when
I went up there everything was empty they didn't have nothing in there so they say they have No Vacancy but they actually do yeah they have vacancies the luxury Tower Diamond D is referring to as this 19 story high luxury apartment building was there vacancy in this building and how was a 165 million doll building helping at Max 298 out of the over 75,000 homeless people in LA County going to solve homelessness roughly $600,000 per unit of housing out here this is permanent housing designed for the homeless folks out here my question is is there
vacancy and if so why aren't these people moving in hi there question for you I'm trying to figure out is there vacancy in this building we got this this nice building there are some units we're trying to rent out units for the our veterans we're waiting for some of the clients to be matched so that we can get them in and we're being patient how many units are there here 200 170 something odd units okay have a lot of the tenants been happy with the apartment complex absolutely will skid rad continue to build like I
see the building back there I hope so because you know everyone that's homeless they need housing and then I stumbled upon this lady who just moved in I'm here with Yolanda rohad Yolanda you live in this building we I just mov here last week new building how do you like it beautiful it's beautiful aome building yeah it's a new building are there any rules you have to abide by to live in the building um gu no music no fighting no argue no drugs what did you have to do to get in this building did you
have to do an application no you had to be like in a street they pick you up you don't have to pay rent here $50 50 bucks a month yes okay and are all the spaces filled in here not yet it's two towers it's two towers but see sometimes people that don't really want to get help while a few hundred lucky people end up getting to live here like Yolanda spending $600,000 per homeless person is financially impractical if La actually wants to get everyone off streets one day I pulled up to a tiny village with
64 ft transitional housing units that come with a bed heaters and AC to see a different approach to solving homelessness critics often compare it to a prison while Advocates believe it's a better solution to getting people off the streets as fast as possible on their path towards long-term housing but what do the residents living there think do you live here yeah my name is Matt bport Matt where are we in front of right now we're in front of a tiny home Village on Chandler in North Hollywood California okay how how long you lived there I've
lived here for about a month and a half how do you like it for what it is it's it's okay I mean it's it's comfortable they provide what you need the Necessities but you know living in a homeless Community isn't always uh you know cool but you know for what what it is I'd rather be in here than on the streets Law and Order is just pretty much pretty much just make sure nobody hurts each other nobody overdoses what's your biggest complaint it's [ __ ] disgusting in there dude yeah dude Daniel um how long
you lived here in the tiny home Community I've lived here since December 15th how do you like it I do like it yeah um this is one of the smaller ones compared to the bigger ones okay there's some that look like giant ones little Mansions yeah I was I I battled with alcoholism so I've been in and out of rehabs since like the ages of 18 to like 34 and then I was just like I'm going to go out there and just do what I want to do sure and I've been homeless for like 8
years how is it being homeless out here in La it's best place to be home yeah couldn't do it anywhere out I couldn't do that in New York City no security was booting me out I was trying to come in and say hi yeah know but they lock it down which is good right you feel safe in here or what yes yes they helped they're trying to get me section8 housings okay so You' get permanent housing right yeah are you allowed to use drugs in the village and drink not in not in not in but
you can have a locker okay and you can put your stuff in the locker they don't ask questions how would you rate the Tiny Village out of 10 it's better than jail it's not as good good as to Ritz Carlon LA's amazing year-round weather seemed to attract people like Daniel from New York City who found that La was a relatively easy place to be homeless compared to other parts of the US while many end up on the streets of LA after losing everything I met up with upand cominging YouTuber Reckless Ben who represents the other
side of people coming to La those who leave behind everything in pursuit of becoming a rich and famous YouTuber while living homeless on Venice Beach I'm originally from Ohio and I came out to California just cuz I was like I it was awesome weather I get like sad in Ohio when it's cold so I came out just for the summer and I like didn't have any money so I just lived in my car and then I saw the Scientology building it was like right where I parked my car at and I was like I wonder
what's inside so I got some spot cameras I like went in there and like filmed all there like brainwashing my goal was actually I was like how high can I get in Scientology uh without spending like a single dollar you know cuz it cost like millions of dollars to make it to the top and I was like and I made it all the way to the seaorg which is the highest rank in Scientology and then they kicked me out the next day but um and then they sued for like a million dollars but how did
that go well I made my own religion called Scientology sucks if you look at the irs.com you can actually see my like religion is a legitimate religion and cuz they were getting me for like defamation or whatever and it's like allegedly no they were't they were sing me for hate speech and defamation is what they were saying now that I have my religion it's no longer defamation it's just it's like freedom of religion I guess cuz like I believe that Scientology sucks so by them suing me for what I believe in now they're discriminating me
against my religion so that's how the law suit turned out I guess so did you lose a million dollars no the detectives just like dropped the case Okay um how is life as a young man chasing a dream with no money out here in La it's uh it's really hard so when I first came to La I literally just bought a one-way ticket cuz I was like I got to get out of Ohio so I I came here uh I just slept on the beach for like 3 months I think um I just had a
sleeping bag sometimes I'll sleep on a a bridge or something hobo yeah I was like with like the schizophrenic people that were like talking to themselves and I like started to like feel like I was going crazy you know cuz it's like but uh yeah and then I made a huge upgrade I got a car a $3,000 car and it like it had no window the door didn't close all the way no air conditioning no radio no nothing and that was sick cuz I didn't have to sleep on the beach anymore I did that for
like 6 months and then once I infiltrated Scientology I got my first YouTube check it like instantly went viral and uh I was able to split a room with my friend why do you have a duck mask in your hand right now so I am wanted pretty badly by the police there's like warrant out for my arrest allegedly no like actually like police have been like showing up to my house and like all my friend's houses like we've literally had cars like follow us to the grocery store and stuff and like this is all real
this isn't like just for the video but uh so I thought it would be safer to like wear the mask because like they can't prove that it's me and The Mask you know can you do a backflip as well uh probably I've never done a backflip uh with shoes on or on concrete all right let's not do it then oh my God Ben that was uh very impressive I did break my neck once I was what died yeah you broke your neck once yeah I still have a clogged artery in my neck okay so let
me now I feel a lot more guilty Rumor Has It allegedly you may or may not have put a slack button up on that building and attached a large penis yeah you can still see it between the two uh D this is like a once in a lifetime thing there's like a skyscraper that has like graffiti on it I was like I want the biggest piece of graffiti out of like everyone you know cuz this like a landmark in LA and I was like I got to put like my mark on it but not just
a Mark I got to put the biggest mark on it oh the was that what the [ __ ] is that a bomb if there's some 18-year-old kid watching saying I want to Chase my dream like Ben move to LA and go for it would you say they should if they have a plan then yeah it's definitely like hard but like if it doesn't work you can always like move back you know if you didn't make it in the YouTube scene would you be happy doing anything else or is this kind of the I'm going
to make it or die trying I was kind of in the I'm going to make it or die trying like I was kind of dying trying you know like I was literally yeah I mean cuz I was having fun dying trying you know like even when I didn't make it it was still fun like how do you think this all ends hopefully I just keep going crazier and crazier and crazier until eventually I just die I guess whether it's being a YouTuber actor musician street performer or living freely as an alcoholic or drug addict the
possibilities here in LA are endless if you work and network hard enough even you might be able to run your own Sex Dungeon one day Lydia what do you do where are we at we are at my warehouse office space what happens in this Warehouse potentially allegedly during the day me and my business partners we work here for a VR startup and during the night we have sex parties and normal parties what does a sex party look like what does that mean it's not what people expect where you go into a room and everyone's having
sex we do kind of like a Berlin sex party themed event that's just like censorship free cuz I come from like a fine arts background I have a lot of friends who do like performan are and they're always like looking for a place to perform and then also I'm friends a lot of like dominatrixes and stuff like that where they're always looking for a place to just you know like showcase their abilities and at normal venues you can't really do that but we're a warehouse so we have no rules do we have a lot of
high-end High net worth individuals getting freaky on the down low out here yes okay how much would it cost to attend a party theoretically oh it's really cheap we do like $35 $35 yeah just for entrance guy down the street can do that but we're very careful with like selecting people so we actually like video interview them and have them fill out application we had the first one we did we flew out a dominatrix her name is Dasha from New York all right and she piss boarded this girl on stage what is piss boarding like
water boarding but with piss so as soon as she landed in La she started collecting her pee so she got like jugs and jugs and jugs of pee okay and she was storing them in Ben's office actually lucky man man and then she said it wasn't enough PE so she we had a um a few like friends in like the adult industry who came who were IND like porn stars or yeah porn stars and they all donated PE so we had JS and jugs and jugs and jugs of pee and then um she had this
girl lay on the stage and they put a towel over her head and then like started piss boarding her and then she got like a butt plug that has a funno in it and then put it in her ass and then pour the rest of the piss in her ass and then she like squirted it out at the audience and it was really funny because I think that was the first one we did here and nobody expected it so everyone saw like the naked girls on stage so they were like running to the stage be
like oh my God like naked girls and the piss started coming out and everyone was like running back and there was like a constant motion going here and they'll be like Ah that's a crazy experience we're doing like a medieval party so she's going to do like medieval torture on oh okay so people will be dressed as Knights and Templars that sort of thing and like Shrek is this inspired from I don't know German sex fetish culture what should I know about how this came to be I would say it's pretty like Berlin sex party
themed but it's still like very Los Angeles cuz I think they don't do it like this in Berlin one blood boarding oh yeah we did Blood boarding blood boarding yeah but that wasn't that crazy what is blood boarding like water boarding but with blood this girl she went on stage and her girlfriend put like a IV in her leg and drain her blood and then waterboard her with her blood yeah but that's like pretty did she get would you categorize this as a pornographic uh experience or is it almost like Fine Art um I think
it can go both ways I think the line drawn between these two are very thin you know one thing I think about being an artist that you can find the art in anything we got this St bench right here okay and then we have that weird Gynecology chair we've done performances on but usually I tie my dog to that when I'm working if he needs to be tied up oh we have like all these mattresses staffed in here we bring it out for the sex parties and then we also have a glory hole here you
guys can kind of Staff but and then the second time we decided to do another sex performance it was for prom not like High School prom um High School prom but for adult and you get to vote for your prom King and prom queen and the people who win will on stage and then this time we got like all real porn stars still couldn't go hard Sins Not Johnny Sins but still very like and I guess what I want to ask is there anything specifically unique about La that allows this to be a thing um
yeah I mean people be horny everywhere but I think La allows people to express it okay a lot of different people come here and they all come here understanding what La is and they come here with a decent open mind and I think one of the nicest things I've heard was um there was this girl she she messaged me and she was saying she was like oh you know like she was like I just want to say like thank you so much like you know because like I came to your event and me and my
boyfriend of like you know like two years like we finally started talking about our Kinks and being able to open up and she was like I had the best sex I've ever had like I thought I know like throwing parties and whatever but I never thought that you know this would actually inspire people to like have a better sex life oh my God wa you domesticated a posum he's chill too wow yeah just hold it yep like that oh is he bite I don't know I think she I'll give it back to you all right
again come come oh dang what is that that's a chicken Sil chicken okay so you guys are living sustainably you got the farm yeah this is the most creative spot of man could be guys thank you so much for having us with success stories here and there what about the average person in La is everyone trying to make it big out here I pulled up to the iconic tourist destination of Venice Beach to see what the tourists and locals thought of LA are you guys from La yes where in La West Hollywood okay what about
you I live in Marina del s you guys with the microphone and a camera what are you guys up to we're out here interviewing for our YouTube channel okay only fans oh actually really yeah yeah scandals in the making man you know this is real this is real only fans all day every day what is the premise here you know sex does sell got to sell some sex on the beach and we're on the beach I don't know if I'm being trolled into what degree right now so you guys are trying to create personality driven
I mean my tits are practically out is that not obvious so it's first time in LA I love it here I love the people I hate I hate La man dude there's the cost is crazy man a lot a lot of homeless people too you know and like I wish I could help those guys you know but it's hard you know you going to see yourself living here your whole life no I got a dog I trying to become a model you do really yeah so tell me about that that's part of the angle we're
trying to understand here be a model be an actor stuff like that I just moved here two weeks ago so right now I was just fighing employment and then doing my head shot and stuff like that it seemed like everyone in La had a dream they were chasing and they were here to Network can get their name out at whatever the cost will you hit the collab on IG the collab yeah what do you mean for our video uh collab like in what context welcome to La collaboration um probably not and it was surprisingly easy
to find an influencer in the wild doing something for the gram are what are you filming can I ask yes jump rope workouts it's uh just on YouTube we're just boxing in the beach with my coach L okay hi coach you upload to Tik Tok Instagram just Instagram okay how long have you guys been doing this only fans Enterprise I've been in it for a little over 2 years okay yeah about 2 years too how has it been it's been empowering I say you know power to the [ __ ] man everybody want to be
famous it's a place to do it you know what I mean social media it's way to make money on social Med as an artist I hear a lot of people come here in pursuit of their dream right to make it big does that ever come through your head I got to go to LA to make it happen yeah this is definitely my first time here that's definitely what I thought though on the way here so yeah yeah in the age of social media do you think you need a place like just to actually make it
doesn't matter uh a mix of both you got to be out in person and you got to you know do footwork too so yeah I say if you want to do only fans it's your [ __ ] life to live you live it up and you shake your goddamn ass so you can't shake it no more baby cuz you ain't got nothing to lose I say do it live and shine bright you don't think there's anything to lose no I mean we're going to die in the end anyways you might as well you know go
out with a bang you know take some sexy selfies and plaster that right on your coffin and be like yo when I die sub to the only fans even plus-size tourists on the Wally mobiles were vlogging what up oh you're vlogging she's on a grind hustle was in the DNA of La how you doing how you doing I'm okay it's me I give I I just don't have any cash if you weren't filming in public why were you even here you know it's great because La is such a great spot to be but it really
is what you make of it because just because there's a lot of big names out here you still have to put yourself out there right so you got to be good at not just at performing but networking as well okay how long have you been doing photography uh it's my second day second day yeah so you're learning right now know how to I'm still working on the actual functions to make a good picture how is it modeling out here is it competitive is it tough uh hell yeah it is it's lowkey hard if you don't
have an agency yeah if you don't have an agency I don't have an agency I'm freelance so like everything is not what you know it's who you know it's like building relationships you get what I'm saying so if you want to meet someone with like a billion dollars you think you're going to meet them sitting in the crib nope no you're going to you have you're going to have to go somewhere meet that guy is it a good place to chase dreams create opportunity that sort of thing yeah if you don't get caught up in
it what do you mean uh I'm a Christian so this is where this is essentially the land of sin you know what I mean people come here for the fleshly things the money the women the fame you know so it's a very easy detour of what God wants for us instead of you know what I'm saying um to love and to not be focused on self and stuff like that do you think there is some demonic elements of Los Angeles here I think there's demon elements everywhere but there's definitely more of a stronghold here because
this is the place where you go for money and all the different things why did you guys come here oh my God we were we came here to spread the word of our page and to from spiritual healing stuff like that it was beautiful I'm not going to lie we came here and and it's just to spread the word about love and bring people together we talk about like suppressed trauma and stuff like that came here specifically to LA to help the people of La is the problem so bad down here yes really bad why
we were we've been here for Less than a week and and I've noticed there's no Outlets that people i' I've seen people being a I've seen people being hateful towards people who are like just you know there's people homeless out here there tons of homeless people out here yes there's people who don't have places to go and I feel like people don't treat them like they're human people are more focused on like what they're doing than what is going on in other people's lives she was right so I headed to my final tourist pit stop
the epicenter of the entertainment industry that made La famous and the symbol of success in the Showbiz the Hollywood Walk of Fame we're heading into downtown I think the general takeaway is there's a overwhelming sense of Despair and hopelessness out here kind of like the whole world's giving up on you which obviously that is in fact the case how you doing man how you doing are you a bouncer yeah technically how long you been out here in La uh I've been out here 21 years that's a long time yeah has it always been this way
no no it was uh it was a lot better when I first moved out here I mean there was always an element of you know for instance let's just be real this guy's sleeping right on the street right here that's not at all atypical it's everywhere it's everywhere there probably several things I think you know definitely uh fitel I think is a big part of that I think uh housing is an issue not having enough Mental Health Care Facilities substance abuse facilities the price of living is always gone up I mean that's CRA expensive out
here yeah it's crazy expensive so do you like La I do I still love La yeah I still love it what's what's your favorite part about La this place has Soul oh man the best is probably just like today the weather the climate you know what I mean do you think uh the problems La faces could be fixed yeah I'm always one of those people like nothing's impossible I think it might be a gear big money though is my point uh big enough money that this prop could definitely be corrected but they don't they're not
seeing the money yeah exactly I mean you're not seeing the money right I think it's going into some other people's pockets right sheer amount of vacant spaces in this city is interesting why are all these businesses leaving and why are so many californ leaving is this a symptom or cause of a broader Exodus out of California question for you has the city offered you any form of housing out here or no no no I've just been getting run around for like over 2 years now do you literally just go from spot to spot to spot
yeah how is La as a concept I imagine I know like over half the homeless population is out here in La wow is it good out here or is it still uh it's man I I've been I've been to like 24 States and five different countries and this is probably one of the shest places I've ever been there just just there's there's just a I've never been anywhere where there's such a lack of of of humanism uh you know being put up is it's just it's going into the wrong hands it's not being used correctly
so I hear a lot of these NGS are getting pretty wealthy yeah so I I'm not sure how to how to go about changing that if you were offered shelter right now would you take it yeah okay why do you think so many people are homeless on these streets you know what out here yeah I all the people that I I have talked to and a lot of them especially most of the girls in the G Park they have houses but CH this sh CU they want a party they want a party use drugs or
what they want to hi I hear they have shelters out here is that real do you guys have options to get out of here are the shelters sh what's what's going on out here cuz I see a lot of tents out here in La yes um well I'm actually just starting to stay in a shelter now okay um how is that it's it's not bad they actually yeah they have options like right now like um I've got into the one um called the Highland Gardens the Highland Gardens Hotel up the street okay so what they
do is they they like um they use they rent out uh hotels and they use the hotels to House people um and what they're supposed to be doing is you're supposed to be getting you know people housing and stuff you know it's like a transitional stat you know where they get you set up with like case managers and then they try to go get you housing um I'm not going to lie from what I've experienced what I've seen a lot of these places really aren't doing their jobs oh and one more thing if I don't
know where this is going to air but probably maybe YouTube okay there we go now my son Jason Alan um this is a message to your son and if you see this I love you I miss you I've been trying to find me on Facebook and I want you to come and get me on all here in La still right now I'm I'm in Hollywood but the Park area and know you watch this I love you and please come and sign me okay easy to be homeless out here or is it hard AB absolutely not
it's not easy no it's not easy like me being a woman okay I've been ried out here maybe four or five times just from sleeping you know um in in this area in this area in other areas you know it's it's it's for a female it is absolutely not easy being homeless um you know I've been I've been sexually you know assaulted I've been I've been beat up by random like crazy people it's it's yeah it's not it's not safe out here even all the homeless people on these streets know that they billions of dollars
involved in solving their problems yet they're still out here on the streets ah good old marijuana how long you been out here in La 5 years well that's a long enough time to have an opinion how do you like it uh I love the weather but it's a lot it's a homeless situation out here man people out here are hungry and uh people like out here doing a lot of drugs did you notice a shift in The Last 5 Years or has it been that way course the co killed the man killed the club scene
the night scene and if you go to uh Beverly Hills man bedy Hill just be so beautiful now all those stores those high-end stores they now closed okay you go downtown all this leasing everywhere man so I saw now leasing now leasing now leasing probably 100 times today yeah how long you been out here sir what's your name my name's Dave born and raised in Hollywood in Hollywood yes how is it working out here right now oh it's actually beautiful man this compared to approximately 10 years ago is different between hell and heaven this is
Disneyland this is Disneyland compared what was going on here 10 years ago there used to be a crack dealer on each corner of Hollywood and Highland me and my brother used to go to the movies at Chinese Theater and we'd get chased by gang bangers what stre to Rob us changed since then so this we're on the up uh you know they they have cleaned up the area no question and there's a lot of improvements right um they never used to clean even the Walk of Fame got it okay that's that's recent dog poop and
piss on these stars or what you know they come nightly now and Russia washer sidewalks and they do take care of things out here but they didn't used to okay all right okay so you can imagine what this used to look like all right about the homelessness situation out here I see a lot of people on the street been bad now look it does come down to that California has the best weather in the world all right and I don't blame anybody for coming to California okay this drugs and Noti fenol become a thing these
drugs are everywhere it's not just here in Hollywood it's just every city it's just that here is a high concentration of it I guess just kind of a general question as a True Hollywood uh Native here yeah do you think it's worth it to come down here and live in LA if you're youngster absolutely you just have to have a purpose for being here no plan you're going to end up like one of these zomes I want to make it be known right now down here right in front of the Taco Bell where you can
buy alcohol not that many homeless people out here it's pretty clean pretty under control not a lot of folks on the streets in tents right here I've heard last 10 years it's gotten better would you say that's accurate yeah okay I've heard that too do you clean the streets every day I heard the stars get cleaned 24/7 24 seven without you guys would these Stars these streets be filthy you think Not only would it would be filthy every trash bin that you see from both sides would actually be overfilled because the city doesn't actually address
all of them it's all private yeah wow what up Tony honestly a nice place to bring the fam right now can I get a photo of your dog he looks so cool what's up dog while the new efforts to keep the Hollywood Walk of Fame clean seem to be working you can find a homeless person with a sad story of how they lost everything tucked away into every crevice and corner of the city if you look hard enough all right Brett how long you been out here um two years three years okay uh how'd you
end up on the streets lost my job okay um doing drugs you know test of dirty and I used to work for the studios and okay like Production Studios like Hollywood Hollywood building sets yeah that's pretty badass it was a good job what would you test dirty for uh heroin okay yeah uh do you still use sometimes yeah okay I don't use Heron anymore I use uh I'm on fentanyl now um have you ever died yes how many times more than I can count but for every drug addict on the sidewalk it was just as
easy to find someone cosplaying as Deadpool in a super car we're to take a spin on the Block Deadpool let's go one person lost it all due to a drug test another might have become a millionaire overnight trading crypto Deadpool what are you up to tonight man just having fun man doing it for the kids are you rich Deadpool yeah man I'm having fun hell yeah you make money in crypto or what yeah crypto I love crypto legit becoming rich and famous is rare and improbable for the one in one million who risked it all
chasing their dreams and made it you have 999,999 who have wasted their lives chasing something they'll never achieve because let's be honest luck aside most people aren't special and that's okay but in a culture where we put actors YouTubers streamers and musicians on a pedestal and we'd be surprised every kid wants to become one let's face it in America if you're not a winner you're a loser and nobody cares this country is darwinian its Mantra is survival of the fittest and magically enough on my way out of LA to the airport I saw this group
of kids filming a music video during golden hour and I had to interrupt them what is happening right now we just pulled up on you guys there's gimbal nice DSLR setup uh we're shooting a music video are you here specifically to pursue that that dream of becoming musician definitely yeah I'm doing it trying to you know struggling these are all La homies you guys met organically out here in the LA scene organ ially yeah in La Sa is it a good place to live for what you want to do in life for what I want
to do in life it's like the only place to live uh yeah I mean same Vibe it's good if you're trying to be an artist cuz it's the only place to to really pursue music that hard but it's expensive so maybe don't live here if that's not what you're doing there's better places but this is the only place um it sucks unless you're trying to be an artist yeah it's essential I'm sorry guys we're losing sunlight I'm sorry all right thank you guys thank you bye all right this is La encapsulated in a few frames
this is where you Chase the Dream you come here to La baby a sh here we go again
