Steve Oney profiles Adam Carolla in the October issue, in which editor Kit Rachlis calls Carolla "the most provocative talk-radio host in Los Angeles, the quintessential Valley guy [and] an equal opportunity offender." Restaurant critic Patric Kuh decrees the city's ten best delis, but I haven't seen the story yet so I don't which he chose. Film critic Steve Erickson celebrates actor Tommy Lee Jones, style editor Laurie Pike has high tea with the lovely Emily Blunt, and LA Biz Observed's Mark Lacter checks in on the boom in luxury condos. The issue is hitting the stands this week but isn't yet online.
