Stoned & Scholarly - “Everything Now” by Rosecrans Baldwin

Join us for a laid-back and thought-provoking morning at one of West Hollywood’s best cannabis lounges as we dive into “Everything Now: Lessons from the City-State of Los Angeles” by Rosecrans Baldwin. Bring your curiosity and your insights as we explore the many layers of this city we call home.

Baldwin’s “Everything Now” is part love letter, part cultural investigation and part existential map of Los Angeles. With sharp wit and journalistic depth, Baldwin examines LA not just as a city, but as a state of mind—one shaped by reinvention, contradiction and a relentless pursuit of "everything now." From Hollywood dreamers and freeway philosophers to undocumented workers and utopian seekers, Baldwin stitches together voices that make LA unlike anywhere else.

This book is especially resonant for Angelenos: it captures the strange beauty, disjointed logic and intoxicating pace of life in LA. Whether you're a native or a transplant, you'll see your surroundings in a new light—and maybe even spot a version of yourself among its pages.

Let’s get high and go deep—on LA, identity, and the many truths hiding in plain sight.

The book is available for around $10 on Amazon or for $19 at the local bookstore Skylighy Books!
