About this podcast
‘The Day Before’ is a scripted storytelling podcast that examines how -19 and LA’s stay-at-home order affects a handful of Angelinos. How the places and spaces we know as familiar really do play a foundational role in our harried lives. In ‘The Day Before’ a cafe in Silverlake is such a place. A hip coffee shop that attracts a bustling morning crowd in need of a caffeinated pick-me-up, a strong noontime power-lunch rush, and a wind-down evening throng in search of a cocktail, beer and bites. The kind of place where the regulars are the cool kids club you want to be a part of. Where a DJ spins records, street art adorns the walls, and the baristas ooze a cool charisma that somehow questions your own personal style. The Day Before. Stay-at-Home is soon to be a governmental order. A surgeon, entrepreneur, comedian, nightlife manager, and a newly cohabitating couple are all forced to deal with tomorrow’s uncertainty, as most of us can recall back in March. A journalist, who calls this cafe his second home, is interested in talking to these individuals, asking them about , their affinity for this communal space, and the prospect of it going away along with so many of life’s norms.
