Welcome, globe-trotters and thrill-seekers, to Things to Do in Los Angeles! I’m Oly Bennet, your roving, laugh-loving champion of all adventures quirky and cool, bringing you the very best of LA on this fine Thursday, September 11th, 2025.

The city’s coming in hot with blue-skied, sun-splashed September energy—the kind where palm trees look extra smug and Angelenos are breezing past traffic on electric bikes. Today, Angelenos are prepping for a night that’s part electric, part eclectic, and all about soaking up that classic SoCal vibe.

Want to jump straight into the action? Tonight, music lovers have a delicious conundrum. Over at the legendary Greek Theatre, iconic DJ duo Kruder & Dorfmeister are spinning the K&D Sessions Live—a transcendent blend of trip-hop, downbeat, and dance. Gram your glow sticks; it’s one not to miss according to Visit West Hollywood.

If the club life is your game, Hollywood Boulevard is lighting up at Academy LA for Group Chat, the hottest techno party in town with doors swinging open at 10 p.m. LA’s dancefloors will be working overtime tonight and the only dress code is “bring the best moves you’ve got” according to Academy LA and Exchange LA.

But wait—there’s more bass, more beats! Downtown’s Exchange LA is throwing a K-pop x EDM party–LE SSERAFIM x Electrik Seoul. This one promises wall-shaking remixes, LED visuals, and a crowd fueled on dance and fandom. K-pop fans, charge your phones and limber up!

Looking for something a little more legendary and a bit more low-key? The Watts Towers are offering in-depth guided tours until 4 p.m. This is a must for art lovers and anyone who adores a side of history with their sightseeing, as reported by the LA Department of Cultural Affairs.

Families and culture vultures, don't forget LA's exhibition game stays strong: from the dazzling art at The Broad Museum to the always magical Griffith Park, there’s a wonderland of museums and hikes waiting, always ready to serve up city views and movie-magic sunsets.

News from the city buzz: The LA Metro is rolling out more frequent trains this month to keep festival-goers and night owls moving, while foodies are flocking to Silver Lake, where Sushi Bueno just swung open its doors and instantly drew lines for their legendary sake-marinated otoro. Good luck snagging a spot, but hey, in LA, waiting in line is practically a sport.

If you want a real “hidden LA” experience and a story your friends in Milwaukee won’t believe, duck into Clifton’s Republic downtown—a redwood forest-themed bar with a dash of old Hollywood glam. Or, taste the city’s funky side at Grand Central Market, feasting on everything from gourmet PB&J to global gelato—all in the same aisle.

Local tip—skip the main gates at Griffith Observatory for sunset and take the Charlie Turner Trailhead up Mount Hollywood. You’ll get unbeatable views, zero crowds, and you might just spot a film crew shooting their next blockbuster. Only in LA!

Before I let you dash off, circle your calendar—tomorrow night, Grand Park gears up for dance battles and live DJs as part of the lead-up to Rev Tour 2025 Los Angeles Festival. Angelinos of all ages will be out in full force, so lace up some wild sneakers and join me, Oly Bennet, as we chase down every bit of city sparkle.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
