Native Content’s EP is partial to both street-side tacos and beachside hotels

Living in LA may mean that getting anywhere requires the use of a car, but when your ‘staycation’ involves the beautiful beaches of Malibu and your version of a cheap bite is some of the best tacos on the planet, then who’s to complain? At least that’s the case for Ned Brown, a Minnesotan-turned-Californian who plies his trade at Native Content as an executive producer. We reckon we could handle a little bit of traffic for such perks (and we haven’t even mentioned the weather…).
