I hammered out a transcript of the video. Please feel free to correct
any mistakes:
 
If you're driving south from LA International it should take no more than 
a hit or two off of your favorite brand of cigarette before you're right 
here, in Gordita Beach, California. Well, no, actually, this used to be 
the beach. Later on, all this is gonna go highrise, high-rent, high 
intensity. But right now, back in 1970, what it is is just HIGH. An 
ounce of Mexican Commercial should run you no more than ten dollars 
– that’s with the seeds and stems, of course. The neighbors here run 
mostly to surfers and dopers and stewardesses, or, more correctly I 
guess, stewardii, who live in Gordita coz it’s close to the airport 
and tend to hang out between flights in the bars up and down the street; 
so pretty much every night here is party night.

Oh, my name, uh, my name’s Doc and I’m a private gumshoe, or nowadays more 
like gumsandal. I used to work the traditional Hollywood type of PI gigs, 
setting up drug busts for parties and divorce cases, or helping the cops 
out with their many shakedown schemes and so forth, but since I moved out 
here to the beach, I’ve been more into the smaller tickets – less karmic 
hassle, less guilt-tripping. Which doesn’t bring in that much money, 
sometimes none at all. Sometimes it’s even me that ends up paying the 
tab, whether it’s in cash or something heavier; and that’s – you know, 
it’s groovy; or, I guess it WAS groovy, 'till, one night my ex-old lady 
shows up with a story about her boyfriend, or, actually, older guy-friend 
and his wife, her boyfriend. At that point it gets sorta peculiar....

M-maybe you’ll just wanna read the book: I-Inherent Vice, Penguin Press. 
27.95 – 27.95?! Really? That used to be, like, three weeks of groceries, man. 
What year is this again?
