I love books. Save the the 📚. We need more book stores and used book stores. Thinks for sharing. Love it.
At time stamp 3:22... I love how she casually ask if they still have a dollar book section. Girl is true to my heart and ready to get her shopping on! Great post keep up the good work!
Most underrated channel

This is my favorite video. As a book lover, i could spend hours looking at all them books. 😊📚
Just found it but loving your shows already . Thank you for making and sharing it !👍
I stumbled across your channel and started binge watching it's really cool how you give so much of the history in such a short time I can't wait for the next adventure to start
Very cool.....love how the bldg was saved and not destroyed. The huge columns are amazing....

+Janet Gasman Thank you! Please stick around and we'll be back for Season Two :)
What a great show. Going to watch them all
Ah yes, finally, someone else who loves books
There are many of us
Your show is better and more professional looking than most of the shows on TV in Australia at present
WOW! It's a wonderful idea. 🤓📔📕📖📗📘📙📚📓📚📚📚📚
Loved this! You two are cute and funny! Hope ppl continue their passion for exploration and receive inspiration in all your helpful, quirky, thorough work!
Bethany : “ where do we get off at?”
Me : “my lap”.
What an absolutely cool space, great vid!
Awesome....I've been here many times. Glad you guys covered this !
+Reinhardt Nilsson Awesome! What was your favorite part about it?
Guys I love your channel it’s truly inspiring to follow your adventures ill be sure to go to those places!!!!!
I've been there a couple of times, it's really cool. Never knew it used to be a bank..
Wow that's amazing I must go to that historical book store
I CAN'T WAIT TO CHECK THIS PLACE OUT!
Your stories remind me of an old TV show, Ralph Story's Los Angeles. Look it up sometime.
That was SO MUCH FUN! You finished your first series with a great episode. I want to GO to this place and spend a long day exploring. Wow! How many books does The Last Bookstore hold? Looks like a huge number. I love the idea of the building being a former bank. Now it's a bank full of ideas and adventures. Thanks for a great season of Oddity Odysseys. Can't wait to see more!
+BrillBlonde It is the perfect place to get lost in for a day. Thank you for always watching and all your encouragement. Looking forward to showing you more in the future :)
Great Show!!
I love book stores. I would never leave this place.
+Belushi87 It was VERY hard to leave after shooting. Thanks for checking out this episode! :)
You're very right.
these videos are amazing
Your videos deserve more views. Thanks for the entertainment. I really enjoyed the Pirate Tower one
Thank you for watching! Pirate Tower is still one of our favorites :)
I used to work at the L.A. Herald Examiner in the summer of '82 as a summer intern (paid) in the photo department. Good times.
This is heaven for me I love booksssss!
Great video. I did not know that LA had a subway system. As always, you are always very informative.
Yes we do, but we never use it because we cant be out of the sun for any amount of time , as our perfect tans might fade.
great video, the arch is cool
No way! At 5:21 I glimpsed that the vault door was made in Hamilton, OH, had no idea they made anything that was installed so far away from here, very cool!
It is book heaven!
you two are the cutest couple on youtube.
LBS is so much fun. Incidentally, here are 4 extra treats film buffs will find within walking distance of LBS: Three shooting locations for Ridley Scott's 1982 Blade Runner (Bradbury Building, Million Dollar Theatre, 2nd Street Tunnel (Between Hill & Figueroa) & LA City Hall = The Daily Planet (Adventures of Superman, TV series 1952-58). When you're through with those destinations, take the subway over to Union Station because that's where R. Scott shot Blade Runner's LAPD station. Enjoy!
im always amazed by people that still have confidence even tho they have a noticeable belly flap .... i mean im seriously impressed and inspired.... they still smile, breathe, laugh
This makes me so happy.
+Summer Barney You watching makes us happy. Can't wait to hear about you seeing it for yourself!
I love this channel
If I were to visit L.A. I would visit “the last book store”! You might have to turn your jacket into an improvised pack to get the books to the subway. When I was in high school I didn’t have the car that day so I used my big shirt 🤣
Awesome place. A place where I will definitely visit on my trip to LA. Thank you Josh for your vision and dedication to bringing back the old-fashion way of reading, ready touching the book and making it fun and magical...Do you accept book donations? where to ship? etc. I live on Oahu, Hawaii. Thank you and your Team for making this happen. CJ
I want to explore Bethany…. Below the waist.
Now that it features in the "My Sweet Lord" official video, sales are going to go up, I bet. For a while anyway. And there will always be people coming in to see the bookstore, who saw the video.
You guys need more subscribers!
In due time. Good content
+Paige G. Thank you Paige! And thank you for watching. It means a lot to us :)
It's so funny! The only reason why I came here is because the lady talking, Katie Orphan, is actually an eyewitness in the Elisa Lam case as she was one of the very few people who saw her alive. That's why I decided to watch this video. It's even more strange to know that the bookstore is located in one of the most dangerous sections of LA called Skid Row but this bookstore looks so appealing and a safe place to visit.
Interesting. What brought me to this vid was their other video of the LA tunnels and I had been wondering, for a long time now, if there happened to be tunnels under or very near The Cecil Hotel, saw they made a vid about the Last Book Store and I knew it was right next to The Cecil. Saw a random comment on a totally different video of some guy claiming he and a friend had gotten "lost" in the tunnels and popped up somewhere unaware of where they were and where they came out was none other than The Last Book Store. .. It all comes together now.
Love your videos, and Bethany, yum, that's all I got to say.
You guys are great hosts. Have you guys done hosting before this channel? You are so smooth and professional! Both of you!
Thank you so much! And no, no official hosting before this. We just find talking about what you love flows nicely. :)
@@OddityOdysseys Wow, I'm impressed.

I'm visiting my sister who lives in Glendale in 6 weeks and I told her we had to go here!

You guys miss me?! Oh my gosh, I miss you guys too!! I can't wait for Season 2! I will for sure let you know how my visit to here goes.
This is my first comment. I am a kid. My name is Cyrus. I like your videos and cool places you visit! :) I love you both because you're awesome.
From money to books; both, important assets in a developed society.The builders of the bank can be proud of the fate that the building had.
When will you upload your next video? I'm waiting haha
We have several new ones out and just posted one today. :)
Love your videos. Reposted @InProcessLA
Thank you so much!
All that's missing is a skinny vanilla latte and I am in the mystery vault in no time!!!!
+TSue McMahon We definitely have some expertise on where you can get that latte as well ;)
How to order a book from out of town
"Speed" 😉
Siri people are like “ew gross Ticks, snakes, clean air!!!!!”
I say “ew half 1 million people I don’t know any of whom could stab me”.
Good video! #AddItHere
+Lewis Cottle Thank you!
The Last Bookstore is part of one of the weirdest synchronicities I've ever seen:
ruclips.net/video/pt8lhNNk9So/видео.html
Hey Drew/Bethany get some wide angle lenses. Your videography "barely captures" the massiveness of this place. Especially on the second floor 6:02 there are about a half dozen small art galleries and shops up there.
I could happily lose myself there. I am a speed reader and love burying myself in a cushy spot with a nice thick book. It doesn't matter the genre.
I really thought it was the last ... Im glad it´s not 🤭where is the manga section? 🤣
Der Buchhandel..Bookstores Place Berlin Germany
Did I see a sign saying Hamilton Ohio?
WE ALL LOVE BOOKS.......but WE JUST CANNOT PAY FOR 'EM!!!!
Like used furniture and thrift store clothing, Bedbugs love old/used books.
Why does she keep saying the “lost” bookstore?
I see lots of fiction and modern looking books, but no antiquated books :(
There are definitely several sections of wonderful and ancient books. We should have covered more of those areas but ran out of time. Highly encourage people to see this place for themselves!
Bethany in a skirt & she's not wearing her knife! :-) :-)
If I happen to be on the West coast when we get nuked now I know where I will spend my time during the fallout. LOL
the lost bookstore lol,....
For how much that dude likes putting his hands in his pockets, he should get pants with bigger pockets

The title is misleading
I do not approve of books being used as building materials :(
Hopefully, they're old tax law books, or other items that are outdated or damaged.
Which planet do u live on??......most people CANNOT afford books!!.....Even used books are becoming expensive these days!!
Somehow, the books are returning to the elite.
