Join us for a trip to an LA original this week: the Original Los Angeles Flower Market downtown. If you can grow it -- and if it smells good -- this is where you'll find it. Florists come from all over town and go through millions of stems a year. Did you know flowers are like fashion? What do you think is "trendy" right now? We'll meet the man in charge and a second-generation vendor.

What do you do? And how do you do it? Most of us spend a lot of time at work.  Sometimes our jobs define us, and Mike Simpson wants to learn about yours! From paleontologist to Oscar Mayer Wienermobile driver, we're hitting the road to get a look at how we're all making a living. Come feed sea otters, restore a car, park a cargo ship and cuddle a cow with us! New episodes on Thursdays.

Our little show is back for a final five episodes and today we're heading out to The Teaching Zoo at Moorpark College. It's where students go to get degrees in animal care by getting hands on experience with all sorts of things with hooves, claws and feathers. We'll meet a pretty chatty bird -- he can introduce himself -- and get up close with some big cats!

Lions, tigers and a cockatoo ... we're at the teaching zoo!

We're headed to a ranch today to meet up with Dr. Katie Nenn. She's a large animal veterinarian and runs NENN Equine. This started as an episode on animal dentistry (horse mouthwash is a thing that exists) but Dr. Nenn tells us about all sorts of animals that you wouldn't expect to find in Southern California. Look for the team from NENN on TV soon, they're working on a new show.
