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.

Meet Carson the Surf Dog (and his coach)

Hey everybody! It's our show's finale and we're talking about a job that Mike wishes he knew about earlier: master builder at LEGOLAND. Do you ever wonder how they build those cityscapes or dinosaurs? Or what kind of test you have to take to get such a fun gig? They go through millions of bricks and we're taking a tour of the workshop! Thanks for listening over all these weeks!

It's a museum day for us! We're headed to the Getty Center to talk to a team that tries to protect some of the priceless art from earthquake damage. Did you know that piece from antiquity in front of you might actually be on rollers? And some of them have ankle problems. We'll also dust off some really old books and talk about how the Middle Ages get a pretty bad rap.

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.
