• In April, comedian Allan McLeod launched “Walkin’ About,” a podcast in which he and a guest stroll somewhere in the L.A. region. • Through his many adventures on foot, Mcleod has discovered that walking “can be really complex and profound.” It’s hot when Allan McLeod and I meet up for a walk in Old Pasadena, but thankfully we’ve missed the early September heatwave that blanketed L.A. County with triple-digit temps. — Allan McLeod, comedian and host of “Walkin’ About” “I believe this is one of the first co-op buildings in California,” he says, stopping in front of the Moorish Colonial-style Castle Green apartment building, which was once a long-term hotel for wealthy travelers who used Pasadena as a winter escape.
