WEBVTT
1
00:00:16.399 --> 00:00:27.000
It was m I love, thank
you. It's too much. It's just
2
00:00:27.039 --> 00:00:29.359
too much. You. I like
how it just stops all of a sudden,
3
00:00:29.440 --> 00:00:36.159
Right, I'm done clapping. Yeah
for you. I welcome to another
4
00:00:36.200 --> 00:00:40.039
episode. It would seem as though
the podcast where we're talking about anything,
5
00:00:40.119 --> 00:00:45.159
everything and nothing most nothing. You
know today something Yeah, well, we
6
00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:49.000
always talk about something that doesn't mean
anything. No, no, not really.
7
00:00:49.359 --> 00:00:52.520
I mean it's just us flapping our
lips and people listening hopefully. Yeah.
8
00:00:52.759 --> 00:00:56.960
Good, That's all I care about. But today we're talking about because
9
00:00:57.000 --> 00:01:02.719
it's a Hispanic Heritage Month. Yes, we're talking talking about notable, influential,
10
00:01:02.920 --> 00:01:10.519
amazing, hispantic people. Yes we
are. I'm Vesta, me too,
11
00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:15.480
We're both best. Yeah, that's
too much Vesta for one world.
12
00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:19.319
Listen, tell me about it.
I know, I'm annaka. I'm just
13
00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:23.879
real tired. You know what I
mean. I don't have a personality today.
14
00:01:23.079 --> 00:01:27.519
My personality is sleep time, you
know what? Any know? She
15
00:01:27.719 --> 00:01:30.560
needs a nap? I do And
it's only eight thirty. So, you
16
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:34.120
know, since it is Hispanic Heritage
a month, I wanted to start by
17
00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:38.599
saying what that means because there I'm
sure people who are like, well,
18
00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:44.319
who exactly falls under that umbrella.
Did you look it up? I did,
19
00:01:44.560 --> 00:01:47.560
just make sure I had it right
between like Latino, Hispanic, and
20
00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:53.599
so Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South or Central America or other Spanish
21
00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:57.280
culture or origin regardless of race.
Yeah, right, right, So it's
22
00:01:57.599 --> 00:02:01.799
Hispanic technically means native Spanish speaker,
so it could be Spain, and it
23
00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:06.840
could be anywhere and like central to
South America. Right, But and then
24
00:02:06.879 --> 00:02:13.280
there's like a difference between Hispanic and
Latino, and you know, but that's
25
00:02:13.319 --> 00:02:16.120
a lot, that's a lot more
So we're just this is an umbrella term
26
00:02:16.199 --> 00:02:21.599
in this case that covers everybody in
that group, so that they're getting some
27
00:02:21.800 --> 00:02:24.719
attention, some love, some shout
outs. Whatever. What at tenchion horse?
28
00:02:25.080 --> 00:02:30.080
I know what? So other than
being tired, how was your week?
29
00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:36.840
It was great? What did I
do? We made dinner on Thursday?
30
00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:39.120
Parker slept over on Friday. You
know it's really cute, is he
31
00:02:39.199 --> 00:02:44.199
actually? Because you know when your
kids sleep over, they are like,
32
00:02:44.639 --> 00:02:46.719
it is seven thirty, I should
be brushing my teeth. I need to
33
00:02:46.719 --> 00:02:51.080
take my melotone in an ate Like
is it okay if I'm watching TV?
34
00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:54.439
Like yes, all of these things
are fine, but it's usually your daughter
35
00:02:54.479 --> 00:02:57.919
who's like, TikTok, TikTok,
I'm want to schedule, and like,
36
00:02:58.039 --> 00:03:00.199
bitch, you don't have to go
to see right now. It's a sleepover,
37
00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:04.439
sleep sleep I don't think they understand
the concept. So I'm like whatever,
38
00:03:04.639 --> 00:03:07.800
But Parker did. I let him
play, Like we watched something and
39
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:10.599
then played video games, and he
stayed up until two in the morning,
40
00:03:10.840 --> 00:03:14.479
That's what he said. He's say
until two in the morning playing video games.
41
00:03:14.520 --> 00:03:15.719
And then when I was going to
bed, he was because I'm into
42
00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:21.120
bed nine later than normal, but
like normal right, And I said,
43
00:03:21.400 --> 00:03:23.479
he's like, oh, so can
I watch TV when I've done playing video
44
00:03:23.520 --> 00:03:25.960
games? I was like, you
can do whatever you want, Like it's
45
00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:29.159
fine, Yeah, you can watch
TV, you can play video games only
46
00:03:29.280 --> 00:03:30.840
I don't care. As long as
you're a noisy gonna beat inside the house,
47
00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:32.879
that's it. That's all I care
about. All I care about.
48
00:03:34.400 --> 00:03:36.479
And if you open a door,
dogs will bar because I'll know you left.
49
00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:38.639
Don't do it. But yeah,
I got up a couple of times
50
00:03:38.639 --> 00:03:40.879
to go to the bathroom or whatever, and he's just out there having a
51
00:03:40.879 --> 00:03:45.560
good time. And then I woke
up again pretty normal time, so did
52
00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:50.039
so did Gavin. And Gavin wakes
up crackerdonish, So he's just in bed
53
00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:53.360
on his phone like because he doesn't
want to go and wake up Parker.
54
00:03:53.879 --> 00:03:55.719
But I wown up and it's awko
morning and it's like seven, he's been
55
00:03:55.759 --> 00:04:01.360
asleep for five hours. Well,
simmy, yeah, he is not used
56
00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:08.400
to that because we keep a pretty
strict bedtime within within a range of time,
57
00:04:08.520 --> 00:04:11.280
right, So like on a school
night, bedtime is eight o'clock,
58
00:04:11.400 --> 00:04:16.959
which means they go up stairs at
eight and then take their helton and their
59
00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:23.040
fluoride and then we read and whatever. So they're probably lights off closer to
60
00:04:23.240 --> 00:04:26.639
nine. Sure, you know,
but what during the summer is it's still
61
00:04:26.680 --> 00:04:30.519
eight thirty? Yeah, isn't That's
so funny to me because during the summer
62
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:32.600
there was I had no bed time. During weekends, I had no time.
63
00:04:32.680 --> 00:04:34.920
I was up doing whatever I wanted, you know what I mean?
64
00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:40.399
As much as sure there was too
same same. But one of the things
65
00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:46.879
I learned doing parenting classes was that
teenagers need more sleep than anyone because their
66
00:04:46.879 --> 00:04:49.839
bodies are growing and changing and their
bodies are like trying to do all that
67
00:04:49.920 --> 00:04:54.439
while they sleep. So the more
sleep they get, the better teenager you
68
00:04:54.519 --> 00:05:01.160
will have. Otherwise be a horrible
teenager. I've met your daughter. I
69
00:05:01.319 --> 00:05:04.199
think no amount of sleep is going
to take care of that. I'm also
70
00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:10.079
a grumpy teenager, so yeah,
in my heart, I'm just constantly grumpy.
71
00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:13.399
One thing that used to bother me
so much as a kid is,
72
00:05:13.560 --> 00:05:15.279
you know, on a weekend or
in summer, because those were the times
73
00:05:15.279 --> 00:05:18.639
when I could like sleep in,
like you know, you sleep until like
74
00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:21.480
eleven, and you're all, oh, that's early, right, I woke
75
00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:26.199
up at eleven in the morning.
That's still morning now. I could never
76
00:05:26.319 --> 00:05:28.279
do that. Now. I wake
up at like six thirty and a mall,
77
00:05:28.319 --> 00:05:30.120
it's time to wake up. Yesterday
I slept until eight, and I
78
00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:35.079
was all like panicked, I've slept
the day away. I Oh my god.
79
00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:38.560
I used to hate it when people
would wake me up, like if
80
00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:41.639
I when I was a teenager or
younger in sleeping and I would sleep until
81
00:05:41.800 --> 00:05:45.800
whatever, Why are you waking me
up? I'm obviously sleepy. Let me
82
00:05:46.279 --> 00:05:49.079
because not everybody woke you up as
gently and peacefully and lovingly as I did,
83
00:05:49.279 --> 00:05:53.279
right, Because what you did is
gentle and I think what you did
84
00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:58.879
is child abuse. It's more like
maybe it's child I think the statute of
85
00:05:58.920 --> 00:06:01.079
limitations is probably run out, so
you can't report me now for abusing you.
86
00:06:01.319 --> 00:06:05.480
No, but I should because you
woke me up playing drums. Yeah,
87
00:06:06.079 --> 00:06:12.240
I sure did, so i'd just
say, you know, I'm much
88
00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:15.759
much gentler about how I wake up
my children. Well, it's also I
89
00:06:15.759 --> 00:06:18.360
would get it again. I've also
met Parker, and I feel like if
90
00:06:18.399 --> 00:06:23.040
you make Parker mad, that is
not a good way to starting to norm.
91
00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:27.000
So I understand you've probably learned your
lesson because I was horrible when you
92
00:06:27.079 --> 00:06:30.639
woke up. No, but when
you woke up staying and forget your joubles,
93
00:06:30.680 --> 00:06:34.439
come on, get happy playing the
drums horribly with no particular rhythm whatever,
94
00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:38.439
whatever drum was in front of you, and whatever implement you had in
95
00:06:38.519 --> 00:06:41.279
your hands to make the drum make
noise. Yeah, you used like the
96
00:06:41.360 --> 00:06:44.920
handle of scissors. Barbie, Barbie. Yeah. And I remember being like
97
00:06:45.040 --> 00:06:47.199
woo in the family room because that's
where I stopped. I was like,
98
00:06:47.319 --> 00:06:51.319
shut the fuck up, and then
I'd be grumpy and then y'all, that's
99
00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:55.639
better to be woken up this way
than like you know, most times I've
100
00:06:55.639 --> 00:06:58.720
been walking of my life. But
yeah, the kids are. Their alarm
101
00:06:58.800 --> 00:07:03.040
clock is actually an alexa and so
you get a pick like what you want
102
00:07:03.079 --> 00:07:06.600
to wake you up. And so
for the last whole school year, it
103
00:07:06.839 --> 00:07:14.720
was this horrible sound from Hotel Transylmania
where it's somebody and I don't remember which
104
00:07:14.800 --> 00:07:17.279
character it is, singing at the
top of their lungs and I don't even
105
00:07:17.319 --> 00:07:20.759
know what they're seeing as like,
but it's loud ye and I could hear
106
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:24.800
it down here and they don't.
And sometimes it would go off for quite
107
00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:28.279
a while where I was like,
because I would push the the little button.
108
00:07:28.319 --> 00:07:30.000
It makes it so they can't just
tell it to stop. They stop
109
00:07:30.040 --> 00:07:35.199
it because I know my daughter,
she would just go alexa stop. And
110
00:07:35.279 --> 00:07:40.040
I actually, well during the school
here or school days, do you go
111
00:07:40.160 --> 00:07:42.480
up and get them now, like
or do they get up on their own?
112
00:07:42.920 --> 00:07:45.319
Uh? No, no no,
because I did when they were younger,
113
00:07:45.439 --> 00:07:47.439
but now they're old enough. It's
just their clock wakes them up in
114
00:07:47.480 --> 00:07:51.399
there because well, but I know
Grace is like hating it and dragging in
115
00:07:51.519 --> 00:07:56.040
the morning. Well, I also
changed that because I had her getting up
116
00:07:56.079 --> 00:07:58.720
at six thirty and then we had
to be out of here at seven fifteen,
117
00:07:58.720 --> 00:08:01.920
which was only forty five minutes eve
breakfast and get ready, and that
118
00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:05.759
was too much, so we moved
it back fifteen minutes. And now they
119
00:08:05.800 --> 00:08:09.079
seem to have luks time, like
they sit around do what. I was
120
00:08:09.160 --> 00:08:13.759
like, how did that fifteen minutes
make such a difference? Wow, that's
121
00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:18.399
crazy time. But now they're ready
on time. And of course I'm not
122
00:08:18.519 --> 00:08:22.199
screaming like a crazy person. That's
good. Yeah, but you know what,
123
00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:26.240
when I feel like that is the
most frustrating thing. Though, is
124
00:08:26.279 --> 00:08:30.519
to the point where not you,
but like you in general adult is like
125
00:08:30.560 --> 00:08:33.080
getting to the point of being like, listen to me, you know what
126
00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:37.320
I mean, And the kids all
filing their nails looking you done, the
127
00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:41.320
eye rolling. I'm like, that
to me makes me want to snap next,
128
00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:45.480
you know, so I could,
well it was literally She'll be sitting
129
00:08:45.879 --> 00:08:48.480
here at the table, she will
have finished her break, taking bites up
130
00:08:48.480 --> 00:08:50.240
her a little one grade, but
she'll be like, I'll say, get
131
00:08:50.320 --> 00:08:54.240
up and go brush her teeth,
and she just like looks out into space
132
00:08:54.440 --> 00:08:58.960
like, m I know something was
said to me? Yeah, I think
133
00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:01.480
I got it to write turned something
I don't know, but I saw a
134
00:09:01.559 --> 00:09:05.279
squirrel. Yeah, we will leaf
moved or she didn't that the sun came
135
00:09:05.279 --> 00:09:09.399
out. My favorite is when she's
trying to find something to distract her.
136
00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:11.360
You asked her do something and she's
like, but did you see that there's
137
00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:15.039
pens right here? Like bitch,
yes, we all see things, like
138
00:09:15.080 --> 00:09:18.440
what are you talking about? Right? Yeah, she's Oh my god,
139
00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:24.159
So today she wore everybody has,
well except from my husband because he would
140
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:28.240
die those blanket coats. That was
the big fleecy ones pull over. You
141
00:09:28.320 --> 00:09:30.120
know, like you've got one.
Yeah, Well, she was like,
142
00:09:30.159 --> 00:09:33.320
I'm gonna wear my blanket coat to
school today. Oh my god. So
143
00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:37.039
it is a on her. It's
a knee length pull over hoodie that is
144
00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:41.759
fleece lined, and so it's a
thousand degrees. Yes, it's so warm.
145
00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:46.720
So she calls her a blanket coat
because she was cold yesterday. And
146
00:09:46.840 --> 00:09:50.159
I was like, you will die
in class wearing that damn thing. Girls,
147
00:09:50.519 --> 00:09:54.879
it looks like you're in your pajamas
or that's all you're wearing. Considering
148
00:09:54.919 --> 00:09:58.600
your daughter wears T shirts and basketball
shorts year round. Yeah, her wearing
149
00:10:00.159 --> 00:10:03.639
full on. Parker made a fleece
just school, right, She's gonna be
150
00:10:03.720 --> 00:10:07.159
a sweaty mass. Yeah, you
know yeah. And I was like,
151
00:10:07.440 --> 00:10:09.799
you're gonna be too hot. No, I won't, I'm gonna I'm no
152
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:13.600
cold. I need to wear this. I was like, all right,
153
00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:18.120
it's a little baby an in freezing
mom, So what run the way to
154
00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:20.639
school? And she goes, you
know, everybody's gonna want to hug me
155
00:10:20.720 --> 00:10:26.240
in this? Who are they?
No? First? She said, everybody
156
00:10:26.279 --> 00:10:28.519
wants to hug me in this?
I go, dude, what? She
157
00:10:28.600 --> 00:10:30.759
goes, well, when they see
me, they're gonna want to and they
158
00:10:30.840 --> 00:10:35.120
go, are they? Okay,
we haven't even got you to school yet,
159
00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:37.559
and you're already like predicting. Let
me tell you. I was going
160
00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:41.679
to react you. Yeah, you're
a cool, but I know, I
161
00:10:41.279 --> 00:10:43.519
mean, I love me. The
first one I ever wore that was yours
162
00:10:43.799 --> 00:10:46.039
because it was so cold, and
you're like, well, there's this in
163
00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:48.279
my closets. I one got it, and yours is leopard print y.
164
00:10:48.559 --> 00:10:54.879
Yeah, mine's like dark blue.
Graces is pink or no blue like Parker's
165
00:10:54.960 --> 00:10:56.600
is black. Yeah. I remember
seeing Parker's being like, I have a
166
00:10:56.720 --> 00:11:01.399
navy one, give me that black
one. I'm one that's in color brightest
167
00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:07.200
color. Purpose. Yeah, it
was a gift after I saw yours.
168
00:11:07.240 --> 00:11:11.320
Someone bought me. That was very
nice, I know, but it wasn't
169
00:11:11.320 --> 00:11:13.120
in black, and so they don't
know me, you know what I mean,
170
00:11:13.159 --> 00:11:16.960
I do, I don't know.
Pretty horrible. Yeah, anyway,
171
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:20.480
anyhow, so listen, part of
one of the things that I think most
172
00:11:22.759 --> 00:11:31.159
white people quite yeah get wrong about
Hispanic heritage is Singo Demayo. Most white
173
00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:35.080
people have no clue. They think
it's just a drinking holiday. Well,
174
00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:39.200
I would even push it further than
just white people. I'd say Americans in
175
00:11:39.320 --> 00:11:43.240
general don't know what they're talking like. I think Latino and Hispanic Americans know
176
00:11:43.320 --> 00:11:46.919
that it's not Independence Days, right, but I don't think any other American
177
00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:50.679
does. That's probably fair because most
people I've heard refer to it as Mexican
178
00:11:50.759 --> 00:11:54.559
independence say it is not that.
So I'm gonna give you just a little
179
00:11:54.639 --> 00:11:58.879
tiny history history on Singo Demayo way
before you say it was at the Battle
180
00:11:58.879 --> 00:12:07.679
of Puebla. What's that it?
Yeah, Mexico's victory over the Second French
181
00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:13.600
Empire at the Battle of Puebla in
eighteen sixty two, led by General Ignacio
182
00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:18.559
Zaragoza love him. Yeah. So
it was one specific battle, yeah,
183
00:12:18.679 --> 00:12:22.200
one region in little region of Mexico. So it wasn't all of Mexico.
184
00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:26.159
But it was a pretty big yeah, pretty big deal. And it's a
185
00:12:26.200 --> 00:12:28.799
part of their history. Sure,
but it's not like the you know,
186
00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:33.639
American what is it, the not
the Civil War American Revolution. That's the
187
00:12:33.799 --> 00:12:37.360
thing. It's not that. It
wasn't that for Mexico. No, No,
188
00:12:37.919 --> 00:12:41.600
they were just fighting off colonizers.
One thing is funny to me is
189
00:12:41.759 --> 00:12:48.039
that Americans make like it's a big
deal. Like people who are not Jewish
190
00:12:48.120 --> 00:12:50.879
make Hanka a big deal. Honica
is not even a major holiday in Jewish
191
00:12:50.919 --> 00:12:54.799
religion. Wow, I didn't know
that. No, it's it's like this
192
00:12:54.919 --> 00:13:01.759
cute little yeah, Passover's huge,
interesting one. Rossia Shawna. Yeah,
193
00:13:01.840 --> 00:13:05.360
yeah, there's a couple that are
actually they're big holidays. But yeah,
194
00:13:05.440 --> 00:13:09.519
that's not one of them. But
most people think hanaka, that's Christmas times
195
00:13:09.519 --> 00:13:13.600
eight. It's like, no,
it really isn't. Well. And the
196
00:13:13.600 --> 00:13:16.399
only people who get, like,
you know, talking during the holiday season
197
00:13:16.519 --> 00:13:20.879
and you say happy holidays and Christians
are all you mean, marry krassass whatever,
198
00:13:20.919 --> 00:13:26.120
and and then try and be inclusive
and adding more Honka stuff, which
199
00:13:26.200 --> 00:13:30.480
is like great, right, But
I've never heard a Jewish person ever say,
200
00:13:30.639 --> 00:13:31.919
God, I wish there was more
Honka stuff, you know what I
201
00:13:33.000 --> 00:13:35.879
mean. I feel like it's people
like me who would be like, oh,
202
00:13:35.919 --> 00:13:37.519
so we're gonna sell a Christmas and
I'm going to make sure that there
203
00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:43.159
is cultural diversity when it comes to
celebrations, right, Like I'll help you
204
00:13:43.200 --> 00:13:46.600
find Kwanza stuff, you know,
whatever it is. But that would be
205
00:13:46.679 --> 00:13:50.320
more of like a my issue.
Well, there's so many holidays in the
206
00:13:50.440 --> 00:13:56.759
dash in the winter. Yeah,
that happy Holidays actually fits better because it's
207
00:13:56.799 --> 00:14:00.200
like, yeah, you're not saying
happy Okay, I'm gonna start your list,
208
00:14:00.279 --> 00:14:03.159
Happy Honica, Merry Christmas, Happy
Aid, happy, you know,
209
00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:11.039
yeah, Solstice, whatever, all
something. So just saying happy holidays better.
210
00:14:11.159 --> 00:14:13.720
Just the blanket covers everything. But
it is so funny to me that
211
00:14:13.759 --> 00:14:16.960
people are so bent out of shape
about it, Like, but I feel
212
00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:20.159
the same way either way. If
someone says Merry Christmas to you, then
213
00:14:20.240 --> 00:14:24.519
you get offended because like, why
don't celebrate Christmas? Yeah, someone's just
214
00:14:24.559 --> 00:14:26.720
wishing you something nice. Yeah,
that's that's yeah, agreed, Agreed with
215
00:14:26.799 --> 00:14:30.799
you. You know, it's like
you cannot celebrate Christmas. No one really
216
00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:35.600
cares. No people are just wishing
you a happy time essentially during this holiday
217
00:14:35.639 --> 00:14:37.960
season. Who they say to you. If someone said to me, happy
218
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:39.480
Hanka, I'd be all happy honka, right. I wouldn't be like,
219
00:14:39.679 --> 00:14:45.080
excuse me, I celebrate the one
of Christ with Christmas or whatever? You
220
00:14:45.159 --> 00:14:46.879
know, right right, So weird
to me, I know, the whole
221
00:14:48.039 --> 00:14:50.240
thing. But it's all that,
you know, everything has to be so
222
00:14:52.399 --> 00:14:56.200
compartmentalized the world. I only do
this, only tend to talk about this
223
00:14:56.279 --> 00:15:01.320
in my It's like I feel like
we could have a whole month worth of
224
00:15:01.480 --> 00:15:07.480
these podcasts where we talk about how
Americans compartmentalize everything, how everything is categorized.
225
00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:11.960
Everything needs to be categorized or it's
like evil and demented, it needs
226
00:15:11.960 --> 00:15:16.240
to be right eradicated. It is
crazy to me, but from everything from
227
00:15:16.279 --> 00:15:20.080
like gender to race to holidays,
like everything, we're like, put it
228
00:15:20.120 --> 00:15:22.519
in a box. It doesn't send
the box, burn it down. Yeah.
229
00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:26.000
So Grace's friend, you know,
spend the night through the night and
230
00:15:26.159 --> 00:15:31.840
she was telling me, she said
something about her that she has gay friends,
231
00:15:31.879 --> 00:15:35.480
and you know, you have to
she supports her gay friends even though
232
00:15:35.519 --> 00:15:37.240
her family does not. And I
was like, what do you what do
233
00:15:37.320 --> 00:15:41.639
you mean? And she goes,
well, we follow God's law. I
234
00:15:41.759 --> 00:15:46.399
was like, which is what?
Well, the homosexuality is against God's law.
235
00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:50.679
And I said, just FYI,
I said, nowhere in the Bible
236
00:15:50.759 --> 00:15:54.879
doesn't say that. I said,
it does now with the newest interpretations.
237
00:15:54.919 --> 00:15:58.879
But in the original it didn't say
anything about that. It didn't say because
238
00:15:58.879 --> 00:16:03.080
people now translated as man should not
lie with man, but the original translation
239
00:16:03.200 --> 00:16:06.799
was man should not lie with bullying, meaning you know, pedophilia, no
240
00:16:07.000 --> 00:16:11.000
bad you know, and bitch and
I know the history of that, right
241
00:16:11.159 --> 00:16:17.799
yeah. And so I was strained
and it was like, I realize that
242
00:16:18.000 --> 00:16:21.879
you're not the one making these choices
in your parents or grandparents, who you
243
00:16:21.960 --> 00:16:23.519
know, whatever. It's like,
it's so exhausting, it is. And
244
00:16:23.600 --> 00:16:29.080
it's just like I feel like the
people like that, not her specific,
245
00:16:29.159 --> 00:16:33.240
but her family or families like that, just like they just thrive in being
246
00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:37.080
miserable, you know what I mean, Like you hate a group or dislike,
247
00:16:37.120 --> 00:16:41.720
don't support whatever a group of people
because of allegedly what it says in
248
00:16:41.759 --> 00:16:45.200
your Bible. But clearly you've never
read the entirety of the Bible because it
249
00:16:45.279 --> 00:16:48.759
doesn't say that, right, but
you now that's part of your personality.
250
00:16:48.799 --> 00:16:51.679
But it also says you're supposed to
love everyone. Right, But well,
251
00:16:51.720 --> 00:16:53.840
and what are we reading though the
Old Testament of the New Testament? The
252
00:16:53.879 --> 00:16:57.159
Old Testament is an eye for an
eye kind of stuff. The New Testament
253
00:16:57.320 --> 00:17:02.559
is I feel good, kumbay allah
your neighbor, which poor? And when
254
00:17:02.600 --> 00:17:07.960
I when I found out from one
of my Jewish customers that the New Testament
255
00:17:07.359 --> 00:17:11.279
is not a part of the doctrine
in Jewish faith. Yeah, they don't
256
00:17:11.359 --> 00:17:14.720
believe Jesus was a son of God. They don't believe in heaven or Hell.
257
00:17:14.960 --> 00:17:18.559
I was like, wow, right, that's amazing. And it's the
258
00:17:18.559 --> 00:17:21.519
same thing as in Islam. They
don't they believe Jesus was, like yeah,
259
00:17:21.559 --> 00:17:23.000
an important man, an important historical
figure, but they don't believe he
260
00:17:23.039 --> 00:17:26.279
was a prophet. They don't.
Or maybe he was a prophet, but
261
00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:30.079
he wasn't the problem, you know, And I think that's fucking fascinating because
262
00:17:30.319 --> 00:17:36.200
for us, you know, and
a lot of Americans, you're raised with
263
00:17:36.599 --> 00:17:40.279
Christianity, no matter what that denomination
is, you're raised with a Christianity often,
264
00:17:40.599 --> 00:17:42.200
and so we learned about Christ and
you learn about how he said,
265
00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:45.480
you know, he died and we
all are forgiven persons or what the fuck
266
00:17:45.519 --> 00:17:49.720
ever, But then to learn if
there's religions that are like he was he
267
00:17:49.839 --> 00:17:53.519
was a man or yeah, maybe
he was a prophet. He was like
268
00:17:53.559 --> 00:17:56.359
a teaching man, but like he
wasn't the son of God? Right?
269
00:17:57.200 --> 00:18:02.440
That shit's crazy to me. Hey, wait, the other day, after
270
00:18:02.480 --> 00:18:07.839
Parker stopped over and he came over
here, and it was before Grace and
271
00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:11.519
her friend were downstairs, and he
was like, oh, now I have
272
00:18:11.640 --> 00:18:15.920
to re smell my bed, because
I was like, bitch, I have
273
00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:18.559
to go resmell my house right now. It's funny. When I got back,
274
00:18:18.640 --> 00:18:21.279
Gavin had sprayed air freshener. I
was like, yes, girl.
275
00:18:22.400 --> 00:18:25.640
But when I came over later to
get a package, Parker sitting where you
276
00:18:25.640 --> 00:18:30.200
are, Grace is eating here,
and Ash sitting on the couch over there,
277
00:18:30.279 --> 00:18:33.160
just looking over here, and I
said hi, and the Parker was
278
00:18:33.200 --> 00:18:36.440
like, this is our sister Annaka. I did not know that's who that
279
00:18:36.640 --> 00:18:38.759
was because from the door to there, I was like, who's that middle
280
00:18:38.799 --> 00:18:42.839
aged woman sitting on the couch.
God, she does not look fourteen to
281
00:18:44.599 --> 00:18:47.119
close up, she looks forwarteen.
Okay from a distance, I was all,
282
00:18:47.559 --> 00:18:49.400
it is your grandma. And when
she when Grace was at my house
283
00:18:49.559 --> 00:18:52.079
not that long ago, she was
telling Gavin and I that, oh,
284
00:18:52.079 --> 00:18:56.119
I don't see her at school because
she works door dash with her mom,
285
00:18:56.240 --> 00:18:59.720
And I said, are you dating
an adult woman? Like I am so
286
00:19:00.200 --> 00:19:04.039
confused. Yeah, she doesn't see
her at school because they their programs are
287
00:19:04.079 --> 00:19:07.640
in completely different parts of the school. That's fine. So she goes to
288
00:19:07.720 --> 00:19:10.759
school, yes, yes she does. Okay, okay, okay, but
289
00:19:11.000 --> 00:19:15.279
she's in the north side of the
building and Graces in the south side of
290
00:19:15.319 --> 00:19:18.160
the copy and that building is as
big as a small city. So yeah,
291
00:19:18.759 --> 00:19:22.720
yeah, so I could see how
you'd never seen people. But I
292
00:19:22.880 --> 00:19:25.440
was shook it. I was like, wow, I didn't know what I
293
00:19:25.559 --> 00:19:27.359
expected. I don't know what high
schoolers look like anymore. But I was
294
00:19:27.440 --> 00:19:30.599
like, she's a grown up.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure. What's funny
295
00:19:30.680 --> 00:19:38.319
to me is the variety, Like
they're little teeny tiny kids people. Yeah.
296
00:19:38.400 --> 00:19:42.039
Yeah, like today when I took
Parker to school and he's seventh grade,
297
00:19:42.359 --> 00:19:47.000
so you know, middle school,
seven six seventy eight. I saw
298
00:19:47.319 --> 00:19:51.720
kids going to school and like you
maybe ten, gnawing, you're tiny,
299
00:19:52.240 --> 00:19:56.599
And then people like my son with
the mustache, and people who are girls
300
00:19:56.640 --> 00:20:00.359
who are fully developed and looked like
grown women. When I remember picking up
301
00:20:00.400 --> 00:20:03.039
Parker and Grace at their old middle
school, yeah, and there would be
302
00:20:03.119 --> 00:20:06.960
girls who walked by that, I
was like, are you picking up your
303
00:20:07.039 --> 00:20:10.039
child? Like right, you have
a girl. You have a d cup
304
00:20:10.119 --> 00:20:12.720
and a full face of makeup and
lashes and extensions and nail like, I
305
00:20:12.799 --> 00:20:17.599
don't what is happening. This is
very different from when I was a child.
306
00:20:17.880 --> 00:20:21.160
It is very different. I mean
because I'm the only person I remember
307
00:20:21.200 --> 00:20:23.799
in your school who was like that
was Ale Smith. Yeah, because I
308
00:20:23.839 --> 00:20:29.039
went to school with Ana Nicole Smith
or someone who just looked a lot like
309
00:20:29.240 --> 00:20:33.880
her. Well, with her fault
eyelashes and her her they can bake tan,
310
00:20:33.119 --> 00:20:37.599
her nails, her huge blonde hair, and that bitch is like part
311
00:20:37.680 --> 00:20:41.880
Native American. Her hair is traditionally
like black. So her hair didn't want
312
00:20:41.880 --> 00:20:44.119
to be bore. No, I
said, no, bitch, that she
313
00:20:44.279 --> 00:20:47.599
wasn't. There was up, but
she was an only child. Remember at
314
00:20:47.680 --> 00:20:52.039
your eighth grade graduation, just looking
at her and thinking, did someone put
315
00:20:52.079 --> 00:20:55.839
her teacher in with the kids?
Right, Well, I'm wearing like army
316
00:20:55.920 --> 00:20:59.799
green bondage pants and like just a
T shirt, and she's wearing like a
317
00:21:00.000 --> 00:21:04.000
bowl on fucking gown with like bumped
up hair and her lashes and a tan
318
00:21:04.079 --> 00:21:07.200
and her full face of makeup.
Some of us looked like children. She
319
00:21:07.400 --> 00:21:14.880
looks like our principle. Very true, very true. Oh yo yo,
320
00:21:15.079 --> 00:21:18.960
I know what a time I would
to be young. Well, no,
321
00:21:18.359 --> 00:21:22.680
now I'm old as fuck? You
sure are? I know? All right?
322
00:21:22.880 --> 00:21:25.799
So one of the things I looked
up that I thought was fun tell
323
00:21:25.880 --> 00:21:29.920
me was fifty celebrities you didn't know
were Latino. See if I don't even
324
00:21:30.000 --> 00:21:32.599
to tell you most of them.
I was like, of course I knew,
325
00:21:32.720 --> 00:21:34.599
okay, cool, but the very
first one and then my husband shamed
326
00:21:34.680 --> 00:21:37.480
me for not knowing. And I'll
tell you why. I can't wait,
327
00:21:37.599 --> 00:21:41.559
because the very first one on the
list is Cameron Diaz. Oh yeah,
328
00:21:42.119 --> 00:21:48.519
and I'm all Cameron Diaz white girls. She as white as snow, but
329
00:21:48.759 --> 00:21:52.839
her last name is Diaz. I
says, I know, so's mine,
330
00:21:52.880 --> 00:21:57.359
bitch, But I mean she was
like Cameron Diaz. I mean she is
331
00:21:57.440 --> 00:22:03.119
Cuban. Yeah. She was like, uh, but most of these people,
332
00:22:03.119 --> 00:22:07.359
I'm like, da Jessica Alba Da, I knew she was not white.
333
00:22:07.559 --> 00:22:12.440
Yeah, you know she is Mexican
of Mexican descent. Okay, I
334
00:22:12.559 --> 00:22:17.160
didn't know this one. Bruno Marris, I just assume he was black,
335
00:22:17.279 --> 00:22:19.000
agreed, I think agreed. Yeah, I think he was mixed of sorts.
336
00:22:19.039 --> 00:22:22.160
But I don't think he was white, all right. I think he
337
00:22:22.279 --> 00:22:26.440
was like black Cuban or black part
of government. Name is Peter Jean Hernandez.
338
00:22:26.799 --> 00:22:33.440
That would have been a dead giveaway. Peter Jean pj hernanans PG.
339
00:22:33.960 --> 00:22:37.920
Oh, it's g E and he's
Porto Rican, Porto Recan Yeah, Porto
340
00:22:38.039 --> 00:22:45.640
Recan uh oscar isaac Mmm, he
is so good looking. He is good,
341
00:22:47.480 --> 00:22:55.240
but he also he obviously Hispanic.
Christina Aguilera, What Aguilera? I
342
00:22:55.359 --> 00:23:00.279
was like, what how could she
ex? Tina? Yeah, she is
343
00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:07.200
of Ecuadorian descent on her father's side. Oh, because her mama white.
344
00:23:07.640 --> 00:23:10.799
I didn't know she was it was
Ecuadorian. Yeah. Interesting, I didn't
345
00:23:10.839 --> 00:23:17.880
either. Well, a lot of
these like Ryan Lochtey swimmer Ohan Olympic swimmer
346
00:23:17.880 --> 00:23:21.920
who caused all kinds of trouble with
the Olympics in Rio. Where was it?
347
00:23:22.039 --> 00:23:23.200
It was? Is that where he
like gott in a bar fight or
348
00:23:23.240 --> 00:23:26.160
does something like I think, yeah, yeah, okay, okay, okay,
349
00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:32.119
Cuban. Wait who did you say
before him? Christina? Oh okay,
350
00:23:32.160 --> 00:23:34.000
okay, thank you. Yeah.
Now this one, I was like,
351
00:23:34.119 --> 00:23:40.559
who doesn't know Charlie Sheen because his
dad? Yeah, and his brother
352
00:23:40.720 --> 00:23:45.599
Emilio Estevez. I don't know,
But I mean, do people like my
353
00:23:45.759 --> 00:23:48.720
generation know that they're related? You
know? They look similar, right,
354
00:23:48.799 --> 00:23:52.759
but like, would you know that? What's funny to me is I don't
355
00:23:52.759 --> 00:23:55.799
think they look much like each other, but they both look like their dad.
356
00:23:56.200 --> 00:23:57.119
So so if you put one by
the dad, you're like, oh,
357
00:23:57.160 --> 00:23:59.799
I see that, but the other. But but you put on my
358
00:24:00.079 --> 00:24:03.599
other and I don't see that.
Okay, it's so crazy. Probably who's
359
00:24:03.640 --> 00:24:07.079
their mom, some white lady?
I don't know. Wait, because their
360
00:24:07.119 --> 00:24:11.880
dad is Martin Sheen? Yeah?
Is he? Is he a white man?
361
00:24:12.240 --> 00:24:15.400
Really? Do you know what's so
funny to me? Because I'm Frankie,
362
00:24:15.480 --> 00:24:19.240
Gracie Grace. Yeah, he plays
Grace and Frankie. That's it.
363
00:24:19.720 --> 00:24:23.240
He plays like an Irish Catholic,
yes, which is his stag and I
364
00:24:23.400 --> 00:24:27.440
was like, I see it.
Yeah, that's absolutely your girl, Aubrey
365
00:24:27.480 --> 00:24:32.200
Plaza. I knew that. I
did not, but also Puerto Rican.
366
00:24:32.519 --> 00:24:34.160
I knew that because in parks and
rec they touch on it a lot.
367
00:24:34.759 --> 00:24:41.000
Demi Lavado, which really, who's
surprised. No, oh, I'm gonna
368
00:24:41.000 --> 00:24:44.720
go back for a second. Christina
Rugula one second. Yeah, So Demi
369
00:24:44.799 --> 00:24:52.599
Lavado's government name is Demitria Devon Lovado
and she's Mexican. Same. Yeah,
370
00:24:52.680 --> 00:24:56.640
that's what about Christina Rugola. There
is one in one of her songs she
371
00:24:56.759 --> 00:25:00.920
says something about being Boiqua, which
means to be a Puerto Rican descent.
372
00:25:00.119 --> 00:25:03.720
That's why I was like, oh, she's would you say hid in Ecuadorian?
373
00:25:03.839 --> 00:25:07.680
Yeah, that's so interesting. So
maybe she's a liar and a horror
374
00:25:07.759 --> 00:25:15.559
So that's just a potential snooky snooky. She's born in Chile and was later
375
00:25:15.680 --> 00:25:19.720
adopted by Italian American parents, so
most people just assumed she was Italian.
376
00:25:21.440 --> 00:25:26.519
That's what I did. Yeah,
yeah, I was snuky Lea Michelle no
377
00:25:26.680 --> 00:25:33.519
idea, huh. She is of
Spanish Sephardic Jewish descent. I think that
378
00:25:33.799 --> 00:25:36.799
I think I knew she was Jewish. Well, I knew she was Jewish,
379
00:25:36.839 --> 00:25:37.640
but I didn't know that she was
a Latina. I knew. I
380
00:25:37.680 --> 00:25:42.720
knew she was not white, That's
what I knew. Now this goes way
381
00:25:42.759 --> 00:25:45.720
back, and so if you have
to be old, like mean to even
382
00:25:45.759 --> 00:25:49.640
know this is Rita Hayworth. Okay. She was big film star in the
383
00:25:49.720 --> 00:25:56.480
forties and fifties. Yeah, big
red hair. Just Spanish on her father's
384
00:25:56.519 --> 00:26:02.160
side, Alexis Spidel. Wait didn't
she change Law's name? Yeah? Yeah
385
00:26:03.200 --> 00:26:07.720
from the Gilmore Girls and Handman's tail
is Mexican and Argentinian Alexis Padel. Yeah,
386
00:26:08.279 --> 00:26:12.880
I don't know that. Wait,
she's Mexican and Argentinian. Damn she
387
00:26:14.000 --> 00:26:17.519
a white girl? I thought?
No, apparently not. Now this will
388
00:26:17.599 --> 00:26:22.519
surprised me too, Okay, Nicole
Ritchie, Oh, I just assumed she
389
00:26:22.759 --> 00:26:26.880
was Lionel Richie's daughter. Well she
I knew that Lionel Richie adopted her.
390
00:26:26.759 --> 00:26:32.759
But I assumed because I've heard her
talk about being black. And but you
391
00:26:32.839 --> 00:26:37.160
know that she gets grief because she's
so fair skinned. Yeah, but she
392
00:26:37.359 --> 00:26:42.400
is also a Mexican descent on her
biological father's side. Okay, go figure
393
00:26:42.839 --> 00:26:47.000
Sammy Davis Junior, do you remember
how do you know who? I know
394
00:26:47.039 --> 00:26:51.119
who he is? Yeah? I
just always assumed black man. Yeah he's
395
00:26:51.160 --> 00:26:56.599
not. He is, but he's
also Cuban, but he hid his Cuban
396
00:26:56.640 --> 00:27:00.720
descent because of the anti Huban backlash
at that time. Yeah, which I
397
00:27:00.839 --> 00:27:03.519
was like, oh the Cuban missile
crisis. Maxwell, the R and B
398
00:27:03.640 --> 00:27:11.200
singer is Haitian and Puerto Rican.
Wow. Louis c K. Louis c
399
00:27:11.400 --> 00:27:17.680
K, who is quite and a
redhead. Yes is what well? He
400
00:27:17.960 --> 00:27:21.200
is often considered Irish thanks for his
red hair, but he's only half Irish.
401
00:27:21.640 --> 00:27:25.400
He's his dad is Mexican, I
knowing it. He's also a pig
402
00:27:25.440 --> 00:27:27.880
of a human. He is a
pig of a human. But but it's
403
00:27:27.920 --> 00:27:32.480
like Anthony Quinn again, you have
the old like me to know who he
404
00:27:32.599 --> 00:27:38.039
was? He played? Who was
he on Batman the Joker on the TV
405
00:27:38.119 --> 00:27:44.640
show like with with Okay, yeah, yeah, I'm talking. But I
406
00:27:44.839 --> 00:27:51.599
always assumed that he was Greek,
oh, because of some of the things
407
00:27:51.680 --> 00:27:57.640
in his later life. But he
is Mexican. Wow. I didn't know
408
00:28:00.000 --> 00:28:03.599
and I don't know who this person
is. James Rude, the psych actor
409
00:28:03.319 --> 00:28:08.119
who was born David James James.
David Rodriguez is Mexican. Okay, here's
410
00:28:08.160 --> 00:28:15.359
one that'll blow your mind. You'd
you're ready and white bean a white she
411
00:28:15.720 --> 00:28:18.279
is? What is she? What? What are you banna? She's Puerto
412
00:28:18.359 --> 00:28:22.599
Rican? Wow? I love that
God from her. She was adopted by
413
00:28:22.640 --> 00:28:29.480
a white person, but she's Puerto
Rican. How silly, Chris White's with
414
00:28:29.680 --> 00:28:33.319
white is our last name being not
white? Well, I guess number indigenous
415
00:28:33.319 --> 00:28:37.799
are indigenous family half their last name
was changed to white. Yeah, now
416
00:28:37.000 --> 00:28:41.119

come on, she's Spanish Spanish Bolivian. Uh, Dave Navarro. I'm
418
00:28:48.039 --> 00:28:52.359
not surprised. I kind of figured. I mean, yeah, right,
419
00:28:52.839 --> 00:29:00.720
Mexican. David Blaine. You know
the magician almost said the musicians Puerto Rican,
420
00:29:00.960 --> 00:29:07.200

show Malcolm and middle off in the
421
00:29:07.240 --> 00:29:12.440
middle Puerto Rican, I would assume
with the last munas cat Vlandi and you're
422
00:29:12.519 --> 00:29:18.079
that Argentinian in Spanish. She's also
a bad person. She's a bad person.
423
00:29:18.240 --> 00:29:22.000
Oh, she's an anti vaxer and
she dated a neo Nazi. And
424
00:29:22.480 --> 00:29:27.400
there's a picture of she's with somebody
and they're holding like the Nazi flag with
425
00:29:27.480 --> 00:29:30.519
a swastika, and she's all like
thumbs up about it. This was like
426
00:29:30.640 --> 00:29:34.519
years ago too, but she lost
a lot of fame in like following because
427
00:29:34.599 --> 00:29:40.920
she is a pig. Well and
I her husband. He's part of this
428
00:29:41.039 --> 00:29:44.759
band and this duo called Prayers,
and they're Chillo goths. So they're Mexican
429
00:29:44.799 --> 00:29:48.599
American goth music. And I knew
them before. I knew of them before
430
00:29:48.640 --> 00:29:51.920
they got married, before Cavondi married
him and I loved them, and then
431
00:29:51.920 --> 00:29:53.680
he married her, and I said, bitch. And I loved Cavanti.
432
00:29:53.839 --> 00:29:57.920
I remember I was obsessed. We
used to watch her a little well,
433
00:29:59.000 --> 00:30:02.400
and I know I lived in La
I remember like driving past her studio being
434
00:30:02.480 --> 00:30:06.440
like, you know, like sometimes
but like right, you know. Then
435
00:30:06.440 --> 00:30:08.839
I learned she was like a huge
bad person. I said, your grouse.
436
00:30:10.960 --> 00:30:14.680
David Gallagher from Seventh Heaven, I

441
00:30:38.079 --> 00:30:48.920
fiber a bit Spanish, right,

444
00:31:00.519 --> 00:31:04.440
I don't know how he's her name. She's from Deadpool and Firefly. She
445
00:31:06.119 --> 00:31:11.839
is from Brazil, Brazil. Now, I don't know what I know this
446
00:31:11.920 --> 00:31:17.359
little white girl from. But her
name is Sarah Paxson Paxton. Wait wait,
447
00:31:17.759 --> 00:31:22.039
paston white girl. You know her
from a lot of things. She's
448
00:31:22.119 --> 00:31:33.240
familiar Mexican. She has calise like
Andrew Keegan from Party of Five and Seventh
449
00:31:33.319 --> 00:31:37.759
Heaven. I don't know it's guy
Oh, I know him, Yeah,
450
00:31:37.000 --> 00:31:44.680
I knew you knew him. Colombian
alex Ma Nieces. I know, it's
451
00:31:44.720 --> 00:31:47.200
just as actual. I have no
idea who she is. So these people,
452
00:31:47.200 --> 00:31:48.599
I'm like, I'm not surprised they're
his band, because I don't know
453
00:31:48.599 --> 00:31:52.799
who they are. Who the hell
are they? Right? Because I'm looking
454
00:31:52.839 --> 00:32:00.200
at these people going Camelo Anthony the
basketball player Puerto Rican. And then there's
455
00:32:00.240 --> 00:32:05.279
some people that are so old.
People know Bella Thorne, Oh, Bella
456
00:32:05.319 --> 00:32:07.160
Thorne. I knew that she has
white redhead. I want you to know
457
00:32:07.480 --> 00:32:13.799
that Gavin is rewatching or he's watching
American horror stories, which are the like
458
00:32:14.039 --> 00:32:17.079
individual episodes that are just like one
off right, and Bella Thorne is in
459
00:32:17.160 --> 00:32:20.480
one of them. And the one
she's in is like, you know the
460
00:32:20.559 --> 00:32:24.160
traditional story where someone maybe you don't
know it, but someone's like chasing you
461
00:32:24.920 --> 00:32:28.759
in a car, tailing you and
they're like flashing their lights at you and
462
00:32:28.799 --> 00:32:30.359
whatever, and you're like, oh
my god, they're gonna kill me.
463
00:32:30.559 --> 00:32:32.000
But this guy was like flashing his
life, being like there's someone in your
464
00:32:32.079 --> 00:32:35.920
back seat. They're going to kill
you. But the reverse of that is
465
00:32:35.960 --> 00:32:38.599
Bella Thorne was the murderer, so
she was taking the dead body with her.
466
00:32:38.680 --> 00:32:42.920
But Bella Thorne, I'm watching it
and I'm like, is this bitch
467
00:32:42.960 --> 00:32:45.720
an animatronic? Like why does she
act like this? Like she just it
468
00:32:45.920 --> 00:32:50.839
just seems like she's acting, you
know what I mean, And that's your
469
00:32:50.839 --> 00:32:52.880
acting. Shouldn't feel like, I
know, it shouldn't look like a girl.
470
00:32:53.119 --> 00:32:55.359
Did they just pull it? Did
they just put robot parts in you
471
00:32:55.440 --> 00:32:59.839
from the local Chucky cheese and they
were like, hey, now you're a
472
00:33:00.160 --> 00:33:05.039
murderous and she's all danger where is
my knife? Like, I don't It
473
00:33:05.200 --> 00:33:08.000
was just so bad. I don't
know that I've actually seen her in anything,
474
00:33:08.160 --> 00:33:10.839
but I know who she is.
Yeah, well, well I'll take
475
00:33:10.880 --> 00:33:14.720
you right down to the local Chuck
Cheese. They probably still have to be
476
00:33:15.240 --> 00:33:19.119
But do you think they have animatronics
left and side? Baby, it turns
477
00:33:19.160 --> 00:33:22.440
into like Five Nights at Freddie's.
Oh no, they go, that's scarier.
478
00:33:22.519 --> 00:33:27.319
All I know that movie's coming out
on Parker's all about it. He's
479
00:33:27.359 --> 00:33:29.559
like, I want to go see
Five Nights at Freddy's. And I'm like,
480
00:33:29.599 --> 00:33:30.319
I don't know who you're gonna go
with. It ain't gonna be me.
481
00:33:30.920 --> 00:33:35.359
You know, murderous animatronics that come
to life and you know, kill
482
00:33:35.400 --> 00:33:38.400
people. I'm just concerned that your
son seeing scary stuff is gonna like traumatize
483
00:33:38.480 --> 00:33:44.200
him because I know that he's seeing
scarier and scarier things. But like he's
484
00:33:44.319 --> 00:33:49.200
delicate, He is delicate, and
like they're you know, like me.
485
00:33:49.680 --> 00:33:54.400
Within the last year during a sleepover, I was like, let's watch scary
486
00:33:54.440 --> 00:33:58.119
Stories of tell in the dark.
Oh that's too scary. But now they've
487
00:33:58.119 --> 00:34:01.279
seen it with Papaman, but during
the day, so every time we go
488
00:34:02.519 --> 00:34:05.920
he just wants to watch something.
He wants watch something scary. So then
489
00:34:05.920 --> 00:34:07.680
we find a bunch of scary things. He's like, no, I can't
490
00:34:07.680 --> 00:34:10.079
watch any of this. So we
end up watching like Goosebumps, right,
491
00:34:10.239 --> 00:34:14.159
sure, the newer ones, which
is we should watch the old show.
492
00:34:14.239 --> 00:34:16.719
But we watched the new movies with
Jack Black and all that, and he
493
00:34:16.800 --> 00:34:20.639
has seen them number of times.
I've seen them with him, yeah,
494
00:34:20.639 --> 00:34:23.199
a number of times. And every
time he gets scared, which is hysterical
495
00:34:23.239 --> 00:34:25.440
to me. It's because you know
what's gonna happen, Like, it's so
496
00:34:25.679 --> 00:34:30.280
funny to me that I'm like,
funny he was when he was little and
497
00:34:30.440 --> 00:34:35.400
I now I can't remember which movie
it was. We went to see one
498
00:34:35.480 --> 00:34:38.800
of the Disney films and you know, it animated Disney, and so I
499
00:34:38.840 --> 00:34:43.039
don't remember which one. But then
something happened. Something there was like a
500
00:34:43.119 --> 00:34:47.280
jump scary kind of moment in a
Disney cartoon that he jumped and then sat
501
00:34:47.360 --> 00:34:50.840
in my lap and held my hand
for the rest of the movie. And
502
00:34:50.920 --> 00:34:53.480
I'm like, oh baby, but
he was genuinely scared. And then when
503
00:34:53.519 --> 00:34:57.679
we watched it at home. He
still was right there with me because that
504
00:34:57.840 --> 00:35:00.639
moment knowing is coming, he still
didn't that is. So it's just it's
505
00:35:00.760 --> 00:35:06.199
very sweet to me. I just
don't know that reality because I remember my
506
00:35:06.280 --> 00:35:08.440
brother's making me watch like Nightmare on
Elm Street when I was like three.
507
00:35:08.639 --> 00:35:13.079
I remember watching it when I was
like eight. I remember seeing Blair You're
508
00:35:13.159 --> 00:35:15.599
pretty sensed. Yeah, I saw
Blair Witch Project in theater and I was
509
00:35:16.000 --> 00:35:20.039
a broken human and my friend's mom
had to sit next to me with my
510
00:35:20.039 --> 00:35:22.239
back and saying it's okay, honey, it's not real. It's okay,
511
00:35:22.280 --> 00:35:25.760
honey, as I'm like, it's
sticks. Yeah. I was petrified.
512
00:35:28.039 --> 00:35:30.880
I still. I know. We've
talked about it, maybe many times,
513
00:35:30.199 --> 00:35:34.119
but that movie just cracks me up
because it's like, why is anybody afraid
514
00:35:34.159 --> 00:35:37.159
of a pilot of sticks? Girl? Because who put it there? That's
515
00:35:37.199 --> 00:35:40.679
fine, But also I love that
it was just such brilliant marketing. It
516
00:35:40.800 --> 00:35:45.159
was so everyone marketing, and everyone
think these kids were dead. They show
517
00:35:45.239 --> 00:35:50.199
up at like MTV Awards and they're
all, but you die. I lost
518
00:35:50.280 --> 00:35:52.440
in the woods. Yeah, but
yeah, I think I was. I
519
00:35:52.519 --> 00:35:57.519
watched the documentary before the movie,
and I was all, oh, so
520
00:35:57.679 --> 00:36:00.960
this is overall yeah, and then
I saw movie. They were like I
521
00:36:00.199 --> 00:36:02.400
just learned right before I saw the
movie that it was none of it was
522
00:36:02.480 --> 00:36:06.239
real, and I was like,
damn, I thought this was some lost
523
00:36:06.639 --> 00:36:07.960
and then it would have been scary
film. Yeah, it would have been
524
00:36:07.960 --> 00:36:10.679
scarier, had you if it had
been real and they were like waking up
525
00:36:10.719 --> 00:36:14.800
and finding sticks, like a bundles
of sticks wrapped up, I thought would
526
00:36:14.800 --> 00:36:16.159
have scared the shot out of me. No, I'm still not sure that
527
00:36:16.199 --> 00:36:20.199
a bundle of sticks would scare all
wrapped up to look like a human.
528
00:36:20.360 --> 00:36:22.800
That would be kind of terrifying.
Someone could time and effort. Someone stacked
529
00:36:22.920 --> 00:36:28.039
rocks outside what I wouldn't be out
in the woods, No, I know,
530
00:36:28.400 --> 00:36:30.079
wouldn't you gut champing? No,
I say, wouldn't be going on
531
00:36:30.239 --> 00:36:34.559
some nighttime adventure. But we're getting
our actress hat on. So if we
532
00:36:34.639 --> 00:36:37.440
were, let's saying, let's say
we were being in Bantras and we were
533
00:36:37.559 --> 00:36:40.239
like, we're gonna go to the
woods and then we're like, oh,
534
00:36:40.440 --> 00:36:45.519
no, we have to sleep here
because we lost our way. Oh getting
535
00:36:45.559 --> 00:36:47.599
lost in the woods. I'm sorry. But if I was actressing in the
536
00:36:47.679 --> 00:36:51.760
woods, there would be a whole
crew with lights and sound. And I
537
00:36:51.840 --> 00:36:58.360
know, but you're I will tell
you that when I was in theater classes
538
00:36:58.400 --> 00:37:00.719
in high school. Yeah, improbably
is the one thing I was always terrible
539
00:37:00.760 --> 00:37:04.599
at. It's cringe e. It
is cringe E. I don't like it.
540
00:37:05.440 --> 00:37:07.280
It's like I need a script please, or I need to just talk
541
00:37:07.320 --> 00:37:10.400
about what I want to talk about, because this okay, you're okay,
542
00:37:10.639 --> 00:37:16.199
you're in here, I go and
you're right a bank teller and you whatever
543
00:37:16.400 --> 00:37:22.320
is like, so I would stand
there, can I help you? Yeah?
544
00:37:22.440 --> 00:37:29.960
Right, here's your gout. That's
so funny to me. I love
545
00:37:30.000 --> 00:37:34.719
that. I love things that are
improvised, but I hate improv, you
546
00:37:34.800 --> 00:37:37.880
know. Yeah, And I don't
like I don't like going too improv show
547
00:37:38.360 --> 00:37:43.039
and we're like, call out something, what should we a card? And
548
00:37:43.119 --> 00:37:45.920
then people are all fucking you know, oh, I think I heard Ronald
549
00:37:45.960 --> 00:37:51.800
Reagan or whatever like because it sounds
the same, yeah, improv. I've
550
00:37:51.800 --> 00:37:53.960
been to one improv show and I
said, never again. Now, I
551
00:37:54.079 --> 00:38:00.440
did learn that Ryan Gosling where I
started improv a whole lot of the Barbie
552
00:38:00.480 --> 00:38:04.920
movie, right, like a lot
of his dialogues, which is hysterical and
553
00:38:05.000 --> 00:38:07.920
I love that, but that's improvising. And I love Different And that new
554
00:38:07.960 --> 00:38:10.800
movie that just came out theater Camp
I told you about. Yes, ninety
555
00:38:10.920 --> 00:38:15.400
percent of it is improvised, and
it is fan fuckantastic. It is so
556
00:38:15.639 --> 00:38:19.599
good. It is so good,
but you can tell a lot of it's
557
00:38:19.599 --> 00:38:22.400
improvised. It's just so silly.
At one point, a girl gets up
558
00:38:22.400 --> 00:38:24.480
there they're doing auditions. She's a
child, and she says, I'm allergic
559
00:38:24.559 --> 00:38:29.079
to polyester, and some one of
the boys judging her says, you,
560
00:38:29.760 --> 00:38:37.960
why, why do you even know
that? Yeah, it's so good,
561
00:38:37.039 --> 00:38:39.559
it is so funny that it is
funny. Yeah, but so yeah,
562
00:38:39.719 --> 00:38:45.159
and doing improvised acting is great.
But being in improv or whole stick is
563
00:38:45.239 --> 00:38:51.280
improv is true. It's ugly.
Sorry if you're you know, if that's
564
00:38:51.320 --> 00:38:53.000
your stick. Sorry, if you're
like a big, big improv lover,
565
00:38:53.920 --> 00:38:57.960
get a line, although whose line
is it? Anyway? Different? I
566
00:38:58.119 --> 00:39:00.920
used to watch that. I think
it was Larry But they're all hilarious,
567
00:39:00.960 --> 00:39:04.239
but they're already funny. They were
already comedians, you know what I mean.
568
00:39:04.320 --> 00:39:07.159
So it's different. I think going
to like an amateur improv a lot
569
00:39:07.239 --> 00:39:10.000
of the time makes me want to
set myself on fire. So well,
570
00:39:10.039 --> 00:39:14.119
I'm glad that you don't set yourself. Yeah. Well, I'm trying to
571
00:39:14.199 --> 00:39:16.119
do the right thing for the world, and the world needs me, so
572
00:39:16.320 --> 00:39:22.159
I can't see a big ball of
fire yet. Let's talk about one of
573
00:39:22.239 --> 00:39:27.400
my favorite Hispanic people, okay,
and all of history. Her name is
574
00:39:27.440 --> 00:39:31.599
Sylvia Rivera. I know we've actually
talked about Sylvia, but I'm going to
575
00:39:31.679 --> 00:39:36.280
talk about her again, do you
please. So, Sylvia Rivera is a
576
00:39:36.559 --> 00:39:45.519
woman that makes She was a key
figure in the gay liberation movement, right,
577
00:39:45.320 --> 00:39:47.960
so she fought her gay and trans
rights. But back in you know,
578
00:39:49.280 --> 00:39:52.239
the late sixties, early seventies,
it was gay rights and we weren't
579
00:39:52.239 --> 00:39:57.039
talking about trans people because fuck then. But she was a she was a
580
00:39:57.119 --> 00:40:01.320
drag queen, she was a trans
woman, and she just fought for essentially
581
00:40:01.360 --> 00:40:05.440
civil rights. And she was born
in nineteen fifty one in New York City.
582
00:40:07.320 --> 00:40:10.880
She's Puerto Rican in Venezuelan. Why, okay, And she had a
583
00:40:10.960 --> 00:40:15.280
rough upbringing, I'm assuming, being
a queer person in you know, Hispanic
584
00:40:15.360 --> 00:40:20.679
households in the fifties, being an
immigrant, I'm sure like there was a
585
00:40:20.800 --> 00:40:24.159
lot of layers. Her father left
the family when she was a baby,
586
00:40:24.320 --> 00:40:30.760
which okay, oh my god,
and her mom died of suicide when Rivera
587
00:40:30.840 --> 00:40:34.159
was just three years old, so
she didn't really know her parents. Setting
588
00:40:35.840 --> 00:40:40.239
She was raised by her Venezuelan grandmother, who rejected her being trans obviously,
589
00:40:40.320 --> 00:40:46.519
so it's really sad. So you
grow up being like queer and your parents
590
00:40:46.639 --> 00:40:50.079
died and lived with her grandma and
she hates you and you're you know what
591
00:40:50.159 --> 00:40:52.920
I mean, Like she hates you
because you're trained and just so much.
592
00:40:52.880 --> 00:40:57.400
So she left home when she was
ten. She was forced to ten ten,
593
00:40:58.280 --> 00:41:00.199
so she I can't imagine what is
a ten year old duo. She
594
00:41:00.400 --> 00:41:04.360
made her way working through the rough
streets of New York at ten. At
595
00:41:04.400 --> 00:41:09.559
ten, she faced obviously discrimination and
violence, so she became That's why she
596
00:41:09.639 --> 00:41:14.119
started to do queer work, was
because she was like, I'm facing so
597
00:41:14.320 --> 00:41:16.840
much and so she her quote is, we were sick and tired of being
598
00:41:16.880 --> 00:41:22.280
put down. So she decided things
just started happening. That's like when Stonewall
599
00:41:22.320 --> 00:41:25.679
happened and all this kind of stuff. And then so in her bestie Marsha
600
00:41:25.760 --> 00:41:31.800
P. Johnson, both were sex
workers and they're the ones who advanced LGBTQ
601
00:41:32.000 --> 00:41:38.079
rights with the whole fight at Stonewall. But they started a group two for
602
00:41:38.519 --> 00:41:43.840
people back in the day, it
was all transvestite, remember, like and
603
00:41:44.320 --> 00:41:49.320
so for clarification for everyone, transsexual
and transgender are essentially the same thing.
604
00:41:49.480 --> 00:41:53.599
They're very similar. Transvestite is someone
who dresses up in the other gender's clothing,
605
00:41:54.159 --> 00:41:59.199
usually for kicks, you know what
I mean. Lots of times like
606
00:41:59.400 --> 00:42:02.159
cross dress theres are transvestites, people
who do it for sexual gratification, like
607
00:42:02.320 --> 00:42:07.480
that would be like a transvestite.
A drag queen is not a transvestite.
608
00:42:07.039 --> 00:42:13.920
There are different there are layers and
differences. But so so they started this
609
00:42:14.159 --> 00:42:20.760
thing called the Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries
or STAR Yeah. Yeah, and then
610
00:42:22.239 --> 00:42:27.280
that was changed the Transgender because PC. But they worked for the Gay Liberation
611
00:42:27.320 --> 00:42:31.400
Front. That's right after Stonewall riot. But I have seen clips of the
612
00:42:31.519 --> 00:42:37.639
beginnings of that movement and what happened
after Stonewall and Sylvia Rivera up on stage
613
00:42:37.719 --> 00:42:42.440
trying to say stuff, and the
queers are like booing her and heckling her
614
00:42:42.679 --> 00:42:46.679
and being awful to her because she's
a woman of color and she's trans and
615
00:42:46.840 --> 00:42:51.719
like that, and she didn't fit
in with the image that they wanted a
616
00:42:51.760 --> 00:42:54.280
portray of, you know, all
these cute white boys. Yeah, and
617
00:42:54.400 --> 00:42:59.599
so when we talk about like gay
rights, gay rights and trans rights are
618
00:42:59.719 --> 00:43:05.000
very different things, and it should
be all encompassing. We should fight for
619
00:43:05.039 --> 00:43:07.960
the rights of all people who are
marginalized. But like throughout history, lots
620
00:43:08.000 --> 00:43:13.679
of gay people haven't super been supportive
of trans people in general, and so
621
00:43:14.159 --> 00:43:20.280
it wasn't and still isn't fun all
the time if you're a trans person around
622
00:43:21.000 --> 00:43:23.440
gay men and women, because a
lot of the time they're bigoted as fuck.
623
00:43:23.719 --> 00:43:27.559
A lot of time they think it's
like a novelty to have a transferend
624
00:43:27.679 --> 00:43:30.360
or they'll out you, or they'll
say some comment to you, like it's
625
00:43:30.480 --> 00:43:36.119
not what people assume just because you're
part of like the LGBTQ plus community that
626
00:43:36.199 --> 00:43:39.960
you all are aligned. No,
that's inaccurate. But yeah, silver Ribera,
627
00:43:40.159 --> 00:43:44.920
she even she fought through the face
of fucking discrimination in her own life,
628
00:43:44.960 --> 00:43:49.639
her personal life, through her community, I mean her life. The
629
00:43:49.719 --> 00:43:52.159
ending of her life was really sad. She died in two thousand and two
630
00:43:52.079 --> 00:43:55.840
and she was houseless. She was
still a sex worker, and there's whatever
631
00:43:55.920 --> 00:44:00.639
documentary I was watching, it had
her in it the majority give it and
632
00:44:00.280 --> 00:44:05.519
you see her like house that she's
made of like tents and boxes or whatever.
633
00:44:05.920 --> 00:44:07.719
And towards the end of the documentary
you see like the city of New
634
00:44:07.800 --> 00:44:13.440
York going and like tearing it down
and she's just like outside yelling at them
635
00:44:13.440 --> 00:44:16.440
to like leave her house alone.
And it's just like devastating heartbreak. Yeah,
636
00:44:16.480 --> 00:44:21.519
it's so sad. It's sad that
somebody who did so much, so
637
00:44:21.760 --> 00:44:25.119
much for so many still ended up
in that kind of situation. Yeah,
638
00:44:25.280 --> 00:44:30.480
it's really heartbreaking, you know.
And she did so much again forefront her
639
00:44:30.559 --> 00:44:34.920
and Marsha P. Johnson fucking forefront
of gay liberation. Yeah, and that
640
00:44:35.119 --> 00:44:37.119
was and I know that she was
fighting all the way to the end,
641
00:44:37.400 --> 00:44:40.480
all the way to the end,
yes, and so, and even though
642
00:44:40.559 --> 00:44:45.440
she was houseless and you know,
had poor health and whatever, she still
643
00:44:45.639 --> 00:44:49.239
was fighting for the rights of queer
people. And I'm like, that's so
644
00:44:49.400 --> 00:44:52.039
big of you, and that's so
like a beautiful thing to do. And
645
00:44:52.119 --> 00:44:55.079
none of them queers deserved her,
you know what I mean? No,
646
00:44:55.360 --> 00:45:04.880
agreed, agreed. So I don't
have nearly that much information about the first
647
00:45:04.880 --> 00:45:15.159
percent of the name is Ellen Ochoa. Ellen Ochoa was the first Latina astronaut,
648
00:45:15.199 --> 00:45:20.519
so was it in the nineties.
She was the first yeah, female
649
00:45:20.519 --> 00:45:22.920
astronaut to go into space in nineteen
ninety three, the first excuse me,
650
00:45:23.039 --> 00:45:30.599
Hispanic astronaut. She was the first
Hispanic astronaut period false stop yeah yes.
651
00:45:30.760 --> 00:45:35.280
In nineteen ninety three, she boarded
the Space Shuttle Discovery for nine days as
652
00:45:35.320 --> 00:45:38.559
part of her research on the ozone
layer. Since then, she has spent
653
00:45:38.679 --> 00:45:44.360
nearly a thousand hours in space missions
and has become a notable Hispanic figure in
654
00:45:44.480 --> 00:45:50.280
science. Due to her significant contributions, NASA has awarded her the coveted Distinguished
655
00:45:50.519 --> 00:45:54.800
Service Medal. Up to this day, Ochoa continues to inspire women and young
656
00:45:54.880 --> 00:46:00.840
girls to pursue STEM which I love
science, Technology, engineering and math.
657
00:46:01.119 --> 00:46:07.519
Yeah right. She has a quote
Alan no Choa, and she said this
658
00:46:07.719 --> 00:46:14.840
is after she said graduated, after
she's retired and talking about STEMS. She
659
00:46:14.920 --> 00:46:17.039
said that I think we need all
the best and brightest working we had people
660
00:46:17.079 --> 00:46:21.440
working in science and engineering field,
and that it is certainly not limited to
661
00:46:21.519 --> 00:46:25.119
men or white men. And I
said, snaps, snaps, bitch,
662
00:46:25.400 --> 00:46:31.079
I love that who else? Oh, we should talk about lin Manuel Miranda.
663
00:46:31.480 --> 00:46:37.480
I love him so do I a
Darham because it was the first thing
664
00:46:37.559 --> 00:46:42.480
I saw him? And was it
In the Heights? That was his first
665
00:46:42.559 --> 00:46:45.920
big Broadway show? Oh wait,
what was the because what was the one?
666
00:46:45.280 --> 00:46:47.519
Didn't they make a moot? No? They made a movie of in
667
00:46:47.559 --> 00:46:50.480
the high Yeah? And I think
that was the first thing that I ever
668
00:46:50.559 --> 00:46:53.880
saw because he's in it, yes, yeah, yeah, and he wrote
669
00:46:53.920 --> 00:46:57.800
it. He was the lead in
it on Broadway. But he's he did
670
00:46:57.840 --> 00:46:59.880
not play the lead in the movie, right, right, But I think
671
00:46:59.880 --> 00:47:01.920
he has just like a minor kind
of a minor role. Okay, but
672
00:47:02.000 --> 00:47:09.320
he's also in Hamilton, the newer
Mary Poppins with Emily Blunt. He is
673
00:47:09.400 --> 00:47:14.480
the Chimney sweep. Oh okay,
cut Jim Jimmy, And then he would
674
00:47:15.400 --> 00:47:19.760
did he write Hamilton? Did he
wrote it? Starting it? Hamilton is
675
00:47:19.800 --> 00:47:23.440
so amazing. Hamilton is so amazing. You've seen it. It's brilliant.
676
00:47:23.679 --> 00:47:27.880
I think it's does I love the
music? Oh my god wrote the music
677
00:47:28.000 --> 00:47:30.800
and he wrote, well, it's
all music. Well, and I when
678
00:47:30.840 --> 00:47:35.079
I watched it, when I because
it's on Disney Plus, right, Yeah,
679
00:47:35.639 --> 00:47:37.320
when I watched it. I was
like, oh my god, I
680
00:47:37.400 --> 00:47:40.000
recognize so many of these actors and
actress. Yeah, it was crazy,
681
00:47:40.320 --> 00:47:44.559
but in all of them are of
color. I would love that that they
682
00:47:44.639 --> 00:47:47.440
took this big chunk of white history, except Jonathan Groff who plays the King,
683
00:47:47.639 --> 00:47:52.719
and he does such a fantastic fucking
job of being that crazy ass king
684
00:47:52.800 --> 00:47:55.320
from England. What king was King
George? Yeah? He was nuts.
685
00:47:55.519 --> 00:47:59.880
Yeah. And Jonathan Groff slay the
house down, boots bitch killed. I
686
00:48:00.320 --> 00:48:02.239
was all, I love that the
only white person in the production is crazy,
687
00:48:02.599 --> 00:48:07.639
the crazy monarch. Yeah, I
at that. But yes, he
688
00:48:08.360 --> 00:48:15.519
took this huge piece of history and
then cast it all with people of color.
689
00:48:15.880 --> 00:48:20.719
Yeah. And it's rap and it's
all kinds of modern music. It's
690
00:48:20.760 --> 00:48:22.679
so good. Yeah, it's delightful. And some of it, though,
691
00:48:23.039 --> 00:48:28.920
like all Broadway shows, for me, makes me just weep because the story
692
00:48:28.960 --> 00:48:32.239
of Hamilton is actually very sad,
and the fact that his son dies in
693
00:48:32.320 --> 00:48:35.519
a duel and then he dies in
a duel, It's like, come on,
694
00:48:35.840 --> 00:48:38.199
Yeah, whoever thought dueling was a
good idea? One The whole story
695
00:48:38.320 --> 00:48:43.679
of like the woman he ends up
being with and how her sister was actually
696
00:48:43.679 --> 00:48:47.079
in love with him, and they
actually liked each other. Like devastation all
697
00:48:47.119 --> 00:48:51.599
around. But yeah, Lynn Manuel, I would kiss him right on the
698
00:48:51.639 --> 00:48:54.239
face. He's such a brilliant man. He is. Yep, he is.
699
00:48:54.360 --> 00:48:59.039
He is what I was gonna talk
about. Who else was I going
700
00:48:59.079 --> 00:49:04.280
to talk about? How about the
fabulous AOC? Oh my god, let
701
00:49:04.360 --> 00:49:07.599
me tell you something. I don't
care about politicians full stop, never will,
702
00:49:07.679 --> 00:49:09.000
never have. I'm not going to
wear a shirt that has any politicians
703
00:49:09.159 --> 00:49:13.800
name. It's not a baseball team. It's not my favorite singer, right
704
00:49:14.119 --> 00:49:16.400
right. I don't vote for Donald
Trump and all the more trump Shire,
705
00:49:16.480 --> 00:49:20.599
right, But I love AOC.
If I love anyone in politics, it's
706
00:49:20.880 --> 00:49:23.679
saying yeah, well, because she's
real. She real. She was the
707
00:49:23.760 --> 00:49:29.280
youngest person ever elected to Congress,
and she was a bartender. Yeah girl,
708
00:49:29.320 --> 00:49:31.360
so she knows. She was out
in the liddle world. She wasn't
709
00:49:31.400 --> 00:49:36.400
some little rich girl who lived the
sheltered life and became a politician. She
710
00:49:36.559 --> 00:49:38.920
was a real person like the rest
of us, who had a real job
711
00:49:39.320 --> 00:49:43.639
out in the community, talking with
people and being a part of it and
712
00:49:44.000 --> 00:49:49.559
struggling month to month to pay bills
and all of those things. And Alexandra
713
00:49:49.800 --> 00:49:53.920
Ocasio Cortez, like I said,
was the youngest person to hold office in
714
00:49:54.000 --> 00:50:00.440
the House who Representatives after her victory
in twenty eighteen, she's her strong progressive
715
00:50:00.440 --> 00:50:02.480
stance on the issues has led to
her re election. I knew she's re
716
00:50:02.519 --> 00:50:08.199
elected in twenty twenty. And she
actively advocates for progressive policies on health,
717
00:50:08.639 --> 00:50:14.119
equal opportunities, and the environment.
And she's just all around such an amazing
718
00:50:14.199 --> 00:50:17.599
and she sponsored the Grain New Deal
package, which is all about climate change.
719
00:50:17.639 --> 00:50:22.679
And as we've seen, like,
Okay, we're here in the in
720
00:50:22.760 --> 00:50:29.639
the Pacific Northwest, where we used
to have four full seasons, and we
721
00:50:29.800 --> 00:50:32.960
now have kind of two. I
mean we have hot or we have rainy.
722
00:50:34.280 --> 00:50:37.760
I know people say that, listen
having been to places where they have
723
00:50:37.880 --> 00:50:39.239
real seasons, because you know,
people say, like the Midwest, the
724
00:50:39.320 --> 00:50:42.800
Midwest has like winter most of the
year. So now, yeah, but
725
00:50:42.960 --> 00:50:45.639
Oregon, you know, yes,
we used to have four very distinct seasons,
726
00:50:45.679 --> 00:50:47.960
and I think they blend a little
more now, but I will still
727
00:50:49.079 --> 00:50:53.039
say there is still I know,
difference. Girl, it was one hundred
728
00:50:53.039 --> 00:50:55.639
degrees a couple of weeks after this
summer, but that's just it. It
729
00:50:55.800 --> 00:50:59.239
was a couple of weeks ago,
so hot that you couldn't even stand and
730
00:50:59.280 --> 00:51:05.159
now it's it's crazy. I know. It was like I swear to god,
731
00:51:05.199 --> 00:51:07.679
it was like hot, hot,
hot hot. Oh it's first fall,
732
00:51:07.960 --> 00:51:09.360
rain, big, We're gonna piss
on you. Yeah. I girl
733
00:51:09.559 --> 00:51:15.800
with Keith everywhere mother Nature said m
h and I but I get in like
734
00:51:15.960 --> 00:51:19.360
living other places because living in LA
and in San Francisco, there are no
735
00:51:19.480 --> 00:51:22.239
season where there's no fucking seasons.
In San Francisco has like summer and then
736
00:51:22.360 --> 00:51:25.800
essentially just spring, and those are
my two least favorite. I want you
737
00:51:25.840 --> 00:51:31.400
to know how my mental health and
my mood shifted the moment I woke up
738
00:51:31.480 --> 00:51:35.360
one night or one night one morning
and I was like, it's raining,
739
00:51:35.800 --> 00:51:39.000
it is chilly. I looked outsides
overcast, everything is gloomy. I'm like,
740
00:51:39.199 --> 00:51:43.960
oh my god, I feel so
much better. But I'm like,
741
00:51:44.239 --> 00:51:46.400
all right, my life is back
to normal. Yeah, because I hate
742
00:51:46.440 --> 00:51:50.559
it. I don't like the sun. Obviously look at me, but I
743
00:51:50.599 --> 00:51:52.880
don't like the sun. I'm not
that person who's going to go to the
744
00:51:52.000 --> 00:51:55.320
river or go drinking, or go
downtown or go to club little none of
745
00:51:55.360 --> 00:51:59.239
that shit. And I you know, I've told you before, I equate
746
00:51:59.320 --> 00:52:01.320
the sun with people. And what
do I like? Not people? So
747
00:52:01.719 --> 00:52:15.800
people also you know in government soda
Sonya soda bread, Sonya pop. That's
748
00:52:15.840 --> 00:52:21.679
her. That's her government name,
Soda pop Wow. I you know,
749
00:52:21.920 --> 00:52:25.559
it's words of her. It's early
in the morning, Sonya soda mayor.
750
00:52:27.400 --> 00:52:30.960
I love her. I love her
because she's like the only has been a
751
00:52:30.000 --> 00:52:35.480
persona judge on the Supreme Court.
Yeah, she was the first and only.
752
00:52:35.920 --> 00:52:37.679
Yeah, so it's funny to me. They're like, well, she's
753
00:52:37.719 --> 00:52:40.920
the first, She's the only what
you mean? Yeah, so, yes,
754
00:52:42.039 --> 00:52:44.719
she was the first, but there
hasn't been a second yet. Know
755
00:52:44.800 --> 00:52:45.760
in most of Supreme Court. Now, I can die in a fire and
756
00:52:45.800 --> 00:52:50.800
I would not feel one way or
the other. Right. But she has
757
00:52:51.159 --> 00:52:57.000
advocated for the right Supperto Ricans,
women and children in criminal justice. I
758
00:52:57.119 --> 00:53:00.440
did not know this. She's written
a lot of children's books, is great.
759
00:53:00.480 --> 00:53:05.119
I don't either. In her books, they explore themes such as feminism
760
00:53:05.159 --> 00:53:08.039
and self confidence. Hell yeah,
they do for you. So I love
761
00:53:08.199 --> 00:53:13.119
that. Yeah, she's I was
reading about her as well. I really
762
00:53:13.239 --> 00:53:15.880
do enjoy that. She is like
the sound voice on the Supreme Court.
763
00:53:16.199 --> 00:53:22.199
One of two or something. How
you won some court eight nine, five,
764
00:53:22.320 --> 00:53:28.280
six seventy too many. It's not
you're now we're drinking too much.
765
00:53:29.800 --> 00:53:31.360
Of these are things we should know. Yeah, it's like six to eight
766
00:53:31.519 --> 00:53:36.800
or something. But they have a
conservative majority currently, so there's like two
767
00:53:36.920 --> 00:53:42.360
or three of them maybe that are
not conservatives, but she is obviously one
768
00:53:42.400 --> 00:53:45.159
of them, right, because the
conservatives are all build the wall and killed
769
00:53:45.159 --> 00:53:54.599
the queers. You know. M
So the woman Latina woman who fought California
770
00:53:54.639 --> 00:54:02.159
school boards to have all schools desegregated. Four names, Sylvia Mendez, that's
771
00:54:02.280 --> 00:54:07.119
right. She did to save the
California schools and said president for other cases,
772
00:54:07.159 --> 00:54:14.280
including Brown versus the Board of Education. Okay, yeah. She grew
773
00:54:14.400 --> 00:54:21.920
up in southern California, Puerto Rican
and Mexican, and she where she lived,
774
00:54:22.000 --> 00:54:25.000
she was not allowed to go to
the same school with the other children
775
00:54:25.079 --> 00:54:29.639
or her neighborhood because it was an
all white school. And she was all,
776
00:54:29.679 --> 00:54:31.159
oh, hell no, I'm gonna
burn it down with all those white
777
00:54:31.199 --> 00:54:35.599
children in there. This. The
next one I want to talk about is
778
00:54:35.639 --> 00:54:38.679
someone who Gavin I actually talked about
the other day because we were on thirty
779
00:54:38.760 --> 00:54:45.880
ninth Street oh Caesar saw Yeah,
Caesar Shawbez. And I didn't know this,
780
00:54:45.239 --> 00:54:49.039
that this came from him, because
I say it all the fucking time.
781
00:54:49.199 --> 00:54:52.039
I knew it was a political statement, yes see, which means like,
782
00:54:52.280 --> 00:54:55.239
yes we can, but this they
say, yes it can be done,
783
00:54:55.280 --> 00:54:59.920
but like yes we can, right, yes you can. So it's
784
00:55:00.039 --> 00:55:05.800
because he was a Latin labor leader. So he fought against like for labor
785
00:55:05.920 --> 00:55:08.599
rights in the twentieth century because his
parents. He witnessed how his parents were
786
00:55:08.679 --> 00:55:14.280
immigrants or migrants and worked in farming
and how they were treated. So he
787
00:55:14.360 --> 00:55:21.000
said nor but yeah, he had
led how many he led a series of
788
00:55:21.119 --> 00:55:25.440
non violent protests for farmers' rights.
Part of it was the Delano grape strike
789
00:55:25.519 --> 00:55:31.239
and boycott. Were over seventeen million
Americans boycotted grapes for five years. That's
790
00:55:31.519 --> 00:55:35.400
in fucking sane. Yeah, So
this man just did a lot for labor
791
00:55:35.480 --> 00:55:38.199
rights. And let me tell you
something, because the pandemic happened in so
792
00:55:38.280 --> 00:55:43.079
many businesses and I just you know, left Starbucks where so many of those
793
00:55:43.119 --> 00:55:46.159
stores, individual stores were unionizing,
and how much I had to hear how
794
00:55:46.199 --> 00:55:50.559
people hated fucking unions. And I'm
going to say something. No, you
795
00:55:50.639 --> 00:55:53.840
don't. The only reason you think
you hate unions is because you're ignorant.
796
00:55:53.880 --> 00:55:58.719
It's because you don't know enough about
the labor history of the United States to
797
00:55:58.840 --> 00:56:04.119
understand that unions aren't necessary for a
lot of jobs because children used to work
798
00:56:04.559 --> 00:56:07.280
and die, you know what I
mean. There used to be like no
799
00:56:07.400 --> 00:56:10.159
regulations there used for anything, right, there were no I mean, and
800
00:56:10.280 --> 00:56:15.800
that this is largely touted to Henry
Ford. But like weekends and forty hour
801
00:56:15.880 --> 00:56:21.800
work weeks and like that was not
a thing of the past until like labor
802
00:56:21.960 --> 00:56:27.440
leaders and people fought fucking back.
So don't talk about and on that note,
803
00:56:27.599 --> 00:56:30.079
children were not They didn't get to
keep the money that they earned,
804
00:56:31.039 --> 00:56:35.079
so their parents could spend all of
their money. And that was perfectly fine
805
00:56:35.079 --> 00:56:38.559
because that child was already their possession. Yeah oh because property property. Yeah
806
00:56:38.599 --> 00:56:43.320
yeah, but yeah, so don't
don't say things like you hate unions.
807
00:56:43.360 --> 00:56:45.960
Just do a little more research,
because they're there for a reason. And
808
00:56:45.199 --> 00:56:52.159
every plumber, electrician, truck driver
pick a fucking like trade, they're in
809
00:56:52.239 --> 00:57:00.639
a union. Dolores Umbridge worked alongside
with seehos Okay, yeah, it was
810
00:57:00.800 --> 00:57:05.519
a big part of that labor movement
as well, but aside from that,
811
00:57:05.760 --> 00:57:10.159
she also pushed her gender equality within
the Labor Union, and for the rest
812
00:57:10.199 --> 00:57:15.039
of her life she was terrisely advocated
for the rights of women, children in
813
00:57:15.079 --> 00:57:19.960
the working poor. So good for
you, ma'am. Well, there's this
814
00:57:20.079 --> 00:57:22.920
little tiny singer that no one's really
ever heard of. She's kind of Her
815
00:57:23.000 --> 00:57:27.480
name is Gloria Estefan. Who is
that? I know? I know when
816
00:57:27.519 --> 00:57:30.639
people think of Latin music, who
they think of like Gloria Estefan. Yeah,
817
00:57:30.920 --> 00:57:35.320
let's see, she's has been a
major Latin artist in the US for
818
00:57:35.800 --> 00:57:37.639
ever, I don't know, for
a long time, since before I was
819
00:57:37.920 --> 00:57:44.559
born. Yit. But she didn't
even she didn't just help get Latin music
820
00:57:44.599 --> 00:57:49.280
in America, but she made it
like an international thing like people then loved.
821
00:57:49.599 --> 00:57:53.679
Yeah, she's Cuban. Mmmmm,
I didn't actually, Yeah, she
822
00:57:53.800 --> 00:58:01.280
and her husband Emilio okay, Emilio
Estos moved here from Cuba, Okay,
823
00:58:01.639 --> 00:58:07.039
And when they came here, they
were not there was like they fled to
824
00:58:07.119 --> 00:58:10.000
here and they were not allowed to
go back home and their families are still
825
00:58:10.000 --> 00:58:15.599
in Cuba. So and now their
son, which I think his name is,
826
00:58:15.719 --> 00:58:21.400
I think he's Amelia also, but
Junior is big music producer. Okay,
827
00:58:21.760 --> 00:58:24.400
yeah, yeah, with she went
through is so in her life.
828
00:58:24.400 --> 00:58:29.280
She went through Grammys. That's great, and she won the Presidential Medal of
829
00:58:29.360 --> 00:58:32.599
Freedom. Yeah. Juter impact on
the Latin American music scene. She was
830
00:58:32.719 --> 00:58:37.559
also given a star on the Walk
of Fame. I love that, Yeah,
831
00:58:37.599 --> 00:58:39.880
I love her. The rhythm is
gonna get you. Let me tell
832
00:58:39.880 --> 00:58:44.360
you that song. I love that
song. I'm gonna say though, then
833
00:58:44.440 --> 00:58:46.679
this is awful. One of the
queens who used to do my show would
834
00:58:46.719 --> 00:58:51.280
do that song and we would always
say, rhythm is never gonna get you.
835
00:58:51.920 --> 00:58:54.320
I don't know where the rhythm went, but it has left you high
836
00:58:54.360 --> 00:58:58.679
and dry man, and it's gonna
you know, it's terrible, isn't And
837
00:58:58.960 --> 00:59:00.679
you've performed the song twny times.
Yeah, you should think you and you
838
00:59:00.920 --> 00:59:06.440
think you'd be better, you know, so trapped. No, but listen,
839
00:59:06.679 --> 00:59:12.599
there's lots and lots and lots of
really influential and wonderful folks of Hispanic
840
00:59:12.679 --> 00:59:16.320
heritage that he up. Do little
gurgle search I did. I found lots
841
00:59:16.360 --> 00:59:23.519
of stuff. Don't search gurgle that's
ugly gargle. Yeah, and you know,
842
00:59:23.599 --> 00:59:30.679
what Just like white people and black
people and queer people, Hispanic and
843
00:59:30.719 --> 00:59:35.599
Latino people are in every industry.
They work every type of job. They're
844
00:59:35.800 --> 00:59:39.119
educated, they're you know, they're
migrant workers. They are fucking aoc,
845
00:59:39.440 --> 00:59:44.000
you know what I mean, they're
musicians, they've done everything, obviously,
846
00:59:44.119 --> 00:59:47.599
because humans do things not based on
their race. But yeah, look it
847
00:59:47.679 --> 00:59:50.400
up, there's a lot of them. There's a lot of If you haven't
848
00:59:50.480 --> 00:59:55.079
seen a lot of influential Hispanic or
Latino things, do and watch Hamilton's support
849
00:59:55.119 --> 00:59:59.280
Lin Main Miranda and all of the
people of color who start in it,
850
00:59:59.400 --> 01:00:04.039
and watch John Groff be a fucking
crazy king. But yeah, I think
851
01:00:04.360 --> 01:00:08.320
lots of times, especially in this
state, in this country, I feel
852
01:00:08.320 --> 01:00:12.800
like a lot of Hispanic, Latino, Chicano Mexican people get a lot of
853
01:00:12.880 --> 01:00:15.320
fucking grief for being that exact absolutely, you know, because like, where
854
01:00:15.320 --> 01:00:19.760
are you really from? That kind
of bullshit. You're brown, so you're
855
01:00:19.800 --> 01:00:23.760
not from here, But yeah,
do some research, don't be an ignorant
856
01:00:23.880 --> 01:00:28.800
fuck and realize that most of this
country was Mexico, you know what I
857
01:00:28.880 --> 01:00:34.039
mean. And I'm going to just
toss out a couple of movies, well,
858
01:00:34.039 --> 01:00:36.880
because one if you want to expose
your children, we gotta go watch
859
01:00:36.920 --> 01:00:39.519
Selena. Well, don't watch Selena. Watch that. If you're older,
860
01:00:39.719 --> 01:00:45.119
watch Selena. She's murdered in the
end. It's awful seeing kids shows nowadays.
861
01:00:45.719 --> 01:00:49.679
Yeah, who cares. What I
was gonna say, is Coco beautiful?
862
01:00:49.760 --> 01:00:53.519
Movie from that movie made me weep? Why am I blanking on the
863
01:00:53.639 --> 01:01:00.239
name of the newer one? That's
the lats Bruno's that's the song is from
864
01:01:00.280 --> 01:01:02.079
there, But that's not the name
of the movie. I'm totally just blanked
865
01:01:02.119 --> 01:01:04.599
on the name of it. Right
now, I know what it's called,
866
01:01:04.719 --> 01:01:07.280
but I want you to go back
in time find this movie is harder to
867
01:01:07.400 --> 01:01:12.960
find. But it's called strictly Ballroom. Oh, because it's this it is
868
01:01:13.000 --> 01:01:16.719
said in the ballroom scene in Australia. But one of the girls who's in
869
01:01:16.840 --> 01:01:22.079
the in the class is a Latina
and her family, who I believe is
870
01:01:22.079 --> 01:01:29.079
from Argentina. The lead boy,
the lead white boy, who's everybody thinks
871
01:01:29.079 --> 01:01:31.559
he's going to be the star of
the whole thing. She takes to meet
872
01:01:31.639 --> 01:01:37.199
her family and to learn how to
really dance the Spanish dances and stuff.
873
01:01:37.280 --> 01:01:42.360
Because yeah, but he because he's
like doing it the way the white people
874
01:01:42.360 --> 01:01:45.159
thought him doing it, and they're
like, oh no, we're gonna season
875
01:01:45.199 --> 01:01:50.519
you. Yeah, and so it's
pretty fantastic. The movie you're looking at
876
01:01:50.639 --> 01:01:52.480
is in Kanto and Kanto, yes
it was. I knew it started with
877
01:01:52.519 --> 01:01:55.719
an e, but it literally flew
right out of my despasito. I don't

know, right, right, right, right right, Oh, you know.
879
01:02:00.679 --> 01:02:06.519
And there's also huge Hispanic Latino artists
like Ricky Martin j Lo you know
880
01:02:06.559 --> 01:02:08.920
what I mean. Like there're tons
and tons and tons Latino and queer.
881
01:02:09.119 --> 01:02:15.519
Oh yeah, we're screaming your face, do you say Latino and queer?
882
01:02:15.719 --> 01:02:17.360
Yeah, we're I gotta go,

887
01:02:31.159 --> 01:02:35.880
enjoyed us talking about Hispanic character.
I hope maybe you learn something. Yeah,
888
01:02:35.960 --> 01:02:38.480
And I hope maybe you'll go and
google something and find out some information
889
01:02:38.559 --> 01:02:42.519
for yourself, because these are all
some pretty amazing people. Yeah, spend
890
01:02:42.559 --> 01:02:46.039
some time this next month doing some
research on Hispanic and Latino people, movies,
891
01:02:46.079 --> 01:02:50.480
things, or share something with someone
else. Yeah, because that's kind
892
01:02:50.480 --> 01:02:52.559
of the whole point at this mont. You know what does it? Pay
893
01:02:52.599 --> 01:02:54.000
it forward? I'm all about that. Not with money, pay your information
894
01:02:54.039 --> 01:02:58.000
forward, tell people what's up.
I know, for me, if I
895
01:02:58.199 --> 01:03:00.599
learned something that I think is cool, I like to, oh my god,
896
01:03:00.800 --> 01:03:04.199
guess what I just learned. Yeah
yeah, and I make sure to
897
01:03:04.280 --> 01:03:06.119
say it that way, so I'm
not going, do you know what I
898
01:03:06.239 --> 01:03:07.079
know that you're too stupid? Yeah? Have you ever heard of this?
899
01:03:07.199 --> 01:03:10.360
Now you haven't, oh yeah,
because you're down. No. For me,
900
01:03:10.480 --> 01:03:14.079
it's like I just learned this thing
that I probably should have done.
901
01:03:14.199 --> 01:03:15.920
Yeah, yeah, you know,
and now you should know because I'm gonna
902
01:03:15.960 --> 01:03:20.280
tell you right, Yeah, I
got it. Yeah yeah. I mean
903
01:03:21.000 --> 01:03:23.480
specifically, I would have talked about
one thing that's always the example that pops
904
01:03:23.519 --> 01:03:28.480
into my head. It's a stupid
math thing that I'm sure little kids learn.
905
01:03:28.639 --> 01:03:32.360
Okay, that I learned from one
of our foster boys is that every
906
01:03:32.639 --> 01:03:37.480
multiple of nine, when you add
them together, equals nine. I was
907
01:03:37.519 --> 01:03:43.639
like, what, I'm like,
eighteen one plus eight nine twenty seven two
908
01:03:43.679 --> 01:03:49.199
plus seven nine. I was like, holy fucking what the heck? Yeah,
909
01:03:49.599 --> 01:03:52.639
six nine, I don't like it. Yeah, it's crazy four to
910
01:03:52.760 --> 01:03:55.679
five nine, And I'm sorry if
you do it nine times eleven, that's
911
01:03:55.800 --> 01:04:03.199
ninety nine, all right, listen
through ten through ten copy copy off a
912
01:04:03.239 --> 01:04:10.960
cup copy anyway. But if you
enjoyed our podcast sins a little note at
913
01:04:11.639 --> 01:04:16.239
it, Oh God, for next
week's read because I got a little message
914
01:04:16.320 --> 01:04:19.719
from your auntie Anne. I'm gonna
read it, all right, Just okay,
915
01:04:19.719 --> 01:04:21.559
we're gonna read it now. You
know what we're gonna go over.
916
01:04:21.960 --> 01:04:26.480
We're not gonna make her. We
don't have rules. And then you said
917
01:04:26.480 --> 01:04:29.360
a lot of time, what is
the podcast just gonna stop working? Back
918
01:04:30.480 --> 01:04:32.960
at one hour, they'll just shut
us off and get they just get out
919
01:04:32.960 --> 01:04:36.840
of You've done talk too much.
No one's even lit y'all talk too much,
920
01:04:38.199 --> 01:04:44.199
which no one would disagree with.
So I got an email from my
921
01:04:44.320 --> 01:04:53.320
cousin Anne door. She says,
thank y'all for being a foster assuming you
922
01:04:53.400 --> 01:04:56.519
know, because we talked about being
a foster parent. I laughed so many
923
01:04:56.599 --> 01:05:00.119
times. It was a little sad
at times when I realized I had had
924
01:05:00.199 --> 01:05:03.639
no control. Ever, so and
some of her stuff was like, maybe
925
01:05:03.960 --> 01:05:09.639
whatever technology is moving way too fast. A lot of folks under thirty and
926
01:05:09.719 --> 01:05:13.719
maybe before you don't even remember black
and white TV. I had a small
927
01:05:13.800 --> 01:05:16.480
portable thirteen inch I believe black and
white that I watched in the kitchen when
928
01:05:16.519 --> 01:05:20.079
cooking. I had that thing until
I was around fifty, not so long
929
01:05:20.159 --> 01:05:24.480
ago. One day I dropped it
and cracked the case and it still worked
930
01:05:24.519 --> 01:05:28.360
for another five years. So I
was sad and they quit working losing things
931
01:05:28.440 --> 01:05:31.239
from childhood. Now do you remember
when we were did our whole episode of
932
01:05:31.280 --> 01:05:33.679
what we thought was rich, and
we talked about it that they had a
933
01:05:33.800 --> 01:05:38.960
story, Yeah, and she said
the Surrey was one of the most fun
934
01:05:39.039 --> 01:05:42.440
toys we ever had. It was
two seat pedal car with a canopy top
935
01:05:42.519 --> 01:05:45.679
and a sort of rumble seat in
the back for one Everyone loved that thing
936
01:05:45.719 --> 01:05:48.320
because it was cool and they were
rich. Yeah. Right, when we
937
01:05:48.440 --> 01:05:55.639
moved from southwest a one level with
a daylight basement cottage to north Portland's three
938
01:05:55.679 --> 01:06:00.320
story gigondo house, that's when I
thought we were rich. Aluminium kids kitchen,
939
01:06:00.360 --> 01:06:04.599
which we also talked about with running
water, convinced me of it.
940
01:06:04.679 --> 01:06:08.880
The water was pumped from a container
under the sink, but to a child,
941
01:06:09.000 --> 01:06:13.880
it was running water here, so
I didn't know about this. This
942
01:06:13.960 --> 01:06:16.000
is funny, As she said,
I still feel bad for convincing Tracy and
943
01:06:16.119 --> 01:06:23.119
my sister to try the roasted caterpillar
cocoons Grandpa Louie brought us. But she
944
01:06:23.199 --> 01:06:29.320
wouldn't touch the chocolate covered ants.
It was dust and disgusting. It was
945
01:06:29.440 --> 01:06:35.119
dust though. Yeah, maybe she
must tell you it's all my favorite adventures
946
01:06:35.159 --> 01:06:40.400
and childhood memories were at your homes. As an adult, I know that
947
01:06:40.679 --> 01:06:45.239
peeps and the memories we make are
more rich than stuff. Yeah, yeah,
948
01:06:45.480 --> 01:06:47.960
absolutely much love and hugs, y'all, and we love you and thank
949
01:06:48.000 --> 01:06:51.440
you for listening and sharing and laughing
and all with us and all the things
950
01:06:51.760 --> 01:06:59.599
and being the topic of our I
think they must be rich because But if
951
01:06:59.639 --> 01:07:01.599
you and want to send us something, just send it at it would seem

3
00:00:29.440 --> 00:00:36.159
Right, I'm done clapping. Yeah
for you. I welcome to another
4
00:00:36.200 --> 00:00:40.039
episode. It would seem as though
the podcast where we're talking about anything,
5
00:00:40.119 --> 00:00:45.159
everything and nothing most nothing. You
know today something Yeah, well, we
6
00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:49.000
always talk about something that doesn't mean
anything. No, no, not really.
7
00:00:49.359 --> 00:00:52.520
I mean it's just us flapping our
lips and people listening hopefully. Yeah.
8
00:00:52.759 --> 00:00:56.960
Good, That's all I care about. But today we're talking about because
9
00:00:57.000 --> 00:01:02.719
it's a Hispanic Heritage Month. Yes, we're talking talking about notable, influential,
10
00:01:02.920 --> 00:01:10.519
amazing, hispantic people. Yes we
are. I'm Vesta, me too,
11
00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:15.480
We're both best. Yeah, that's
too much Vesta for one world.
12
00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:19.319
Listen, tell me about it.
I know, I'm annaka. I'm just
13
00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:23.879
real tired. You know what I
mean. I don't have a personality today.
14
00:01:23.079 --> 00:01:27.519
My personality is sleep time, you
know what? Any know? She
15
00:01:27.719 --> 00:01:30.560
needs a nap? I do And
it's only eight thirty. So, you
16
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:34.120
know, since it is Hispanic Heritage
a month, I wanted to start by
17
00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:38.599
saying what that means because there I'm
sure people who are like, well,
18
00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:44.319
who exactly falls under that umbrella.
Did you look it up? I did,
19
00:01:44.560 --> 00:01:47.560
just make sure I had it right
between like Latino, Hispanic, and
20
00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:53.599
so Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South or Central America or other Spanish
21
00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:57.280
culture or origin regardless of race.
Yeah, right, right, So it's
22
00:01:57.599 --> 00:02:01.799
Hispanic technically means native Spanish speaker,
so it could be Spain, and it
23
00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:06.840
could be anywhere and like central to
South America. Right, But and then
24
00:02:06.879 --> 00:02:13.280
there's like a difference between Hispanic and
Latino, and you know, but that's
25
00:02:13.319 --> 00:02:16.120
a lot, that's a lot more
So we're just this is an umbrella term
26
00:02:16.199 --> 00:02:21.599
in this case that covers everybody in
that group, so that they're getting some
27
00:02:21.800 --> 00:02:24.719
attention, some love, some shout
outs. Whatever. What at tenchion horse?
28
00:02:25.080 --> 00:02:30.080
I know what? So other than
being tired, how was your week?
29
00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:36.840
It was great? What did I
do? We made dinner on Thursday?
30
00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:39.120
Parker slept over on Friday. You
know it's really cute, is he
31
00:02:39.199 --> 00:02:44.199
actually? Because you know when your
kids sleep over, they are like,
32
00:02:44.639 --> 00:02:46.719
it is seven thirty, I should
be brushing my teeth. I need to
33
00:02:46.719 --> 00:02:51.080
take my melotone in an ate Like
is it okay if I'm watching TV?
34
00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:54.439
Like yes, all of these things
are fine, but it's usually your daughter
35
00:02:54.479 --> 00:02:57.919
who's like, TikTok, TikTok,
I'm want to schedule, and like,
36
00:02:58.039 --> 00:03:00.199
bitch, you don't have to go
to see right now. It's a sleepover,
37
00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:04.439
sleep sleep I don't think they understand
the concept. So I'm like whatever,
38
00:03:04.639 --> 00:03:07.800
But Parker did. I let him
play, Like we watched something and
39
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:10.599
then played video games, and he
stayed up until two in the morning,
40
00:03:10.840 --> 00:03:14.479
That's what he said. He's say
until two in the morning playing video games.
41
00:03:14.520 --> 00:03:15.719
And then when I was going to
bed, he was because I'm into
42
00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:21.120
bed nine later than normal, but
like normal right, And I said,
43
00:03:21.400 --> 00:03:23.479
he's like, oh, so can
I watch TV when I've done playing video
44
00:03:23.520 --> 00:03:25.960
games? I was like, you
can do whatever you want, Like it's
45
00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:29.159
fine, Yeah, you can watch
TV, you can play video games only
46
00:03:29.280 --> 00:03:30.840
I don't care. As long as
you're a noisy gonna beat inside the house,
47
00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:32.879
that's it. That's all I care
about. All I care about.
48
00:03:34.400 --> 00:03:36.479
And if you open a door,
dogs will bar because I'll know you left.
49
00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:38.639
Don't do it. But yeah,
I got up a couple of times
50
00:03:38.639 --> 00:03:40.879
to go to the bathroom or whatever, and he's just out there having a
51
00:03:40.879 --> 00:03:45.560
good time. And then I woke
up again pretty normal time, so did
52
00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:50.039
so did Gavin. And Gavin wakes
up crackerdonish, So he's just in bed
53
00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:53.360
on his phone like because he doesn't
want to go and wake up Parker.
54
00:03:53.879 --> 00:03:55.719
But I wown up and it's awko
morning and it's like seven, he's been
55
00:03:55.759 --> 00:04:01.360
asleep for five hours. Well,
simmy, yeah, he is not used
56
00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:08.400
to that because we keep a pretty
strict bedtime within within a range of time,
57
00:04:08.520 --> 00:04:11.280
right, So like on a school
night, bedtime is eight o'clock,
58
00:04:11.400 --> 00:04:16.959
which means they go up stairs at
eight and then take their helton and their
59
00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:23.040
fluoride and then we read and whatever. So they're probably lights off closer to
60
00:04:23.240 --> 00:04:26.639
nine. Sure, you know,
but what during the summer is it's still
61
00:04:26.680 --> 00:04:30.519
eight thirty? Yeah, isn't That's
so funny to me because during the summer
62
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:32.600
there was I had no bed time. During weekends, I had no time.
63
00:04:32.680 --> 00:04:34.920
I was up doing whatever I wanted, you know what I mean?
64
00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:40.399
As much as sure there was too
same same. But one of the things
65
00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:46.879
I learned doing parenting classes was that
teenagers need more sleep than anyone because their
66
00:04:46.879 --> 00:04:49.839
bodies are growing and changing and their
bodies are like trying to do all that
67
00:04:49.920 --> 00:04:54.439
while they sleep. So the more
sleep they get, the better teenager you
68
00:04:54.519 --> 00:05:01.160
will have. Otherwise be a horrible
teenager. I've met your daughter. I
69
00:05:01.319 --> 00:05:04.199
think no amount of sleep is going
to take care of that. I'm also
70
00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:10.079
a grumpy teenager, so yeah,
in my heart, I'm just constantly grumpy.
71
00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:13.399
One thing that used to bother me
so much as a kid is,
72
00:05:13.560 --> 00:05:15.279
you know, on a weekend or
in summer, because those were the times
73
00:05:15.279 --> 00:05:18.639
when I could like sleep in,
like you know, you sleep until like
74
00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:21.480
eleven, and you're all, oh, that's early, right, I woke
75
00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:26.199
up at eleven in the morning.
That's still morning now. I could never
76
00:05:26.319 --> 00:05:28.279
do that. Now. I wake
up at like six thirty and a mall,
77
00:05:28.319 --> 00:05:30.120
it's time to wake up. Yesterday
I slept until eight, and I
78
00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:35.079
was all like panicked, I've slept
the day away. I Oh my god.
79
00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:38.560
I used to hate it when people
would wake me up, like if
80
00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:41.639
I when I was a teenager or
younger in sleeping and I would sleep until
81
00:05:41.800 --> 00:05:45.800
whatever, Why are you waking me
up? I'm obviously sleepy. Let me
82
00:05:46.279 --> 00:05:49.079
because not everybody woke you up as
gently and peacefully and lovingly as I did,
83
00:05:49.279 --> 00:05:53.279
right, Because what you did is
gentle and I think what you did
84
00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:58.879
is child abuse. It's more like
maybe it's child I think the statute of
85
00:05:58.920 --> 00:06:01.079
limitations is probably run out, so
you can't report me now for abusing you.
86
00:06:01.319 --> 00:06:05.480
No, but I should because you
woke me up playing drums. Yeah,
87
00:06:06.079 --> 00:06:12.240
I sure did, so i'd just
say, you know, I'm much
88
00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:15.759
much gentler about how I wake up
my children. Well, it's also I
89
00:06:15.759 --> 00:06:18.360
would get it again. I've also
met Parker, and I feel like if
90
00:06:18.399 --> 00:06:23.040
you make Parker mad, that is
not a good way to starting to norm.
91
00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:27.000
So I understand you've probably learned your
lesson because I was horrible when you
92
00:06:27.079 --> 00:06:30.639
woke up. No, but when
you woke up staying and forget your joubles,
93
00:06:30.680 --> 00:06:34.439
come on, get happy playing the
drums horribly with no particular rhythm whatever,
94
00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:38.439
whatever drum was in front of you, and whatever implement you had in
95
00:06:38.519 --> 00:06:41.279
your hands to make the drum make
noise. Yeah, you used like the
96
00:06:41.360 --> 00:06:44.920
handle of scissors. Barbie, Barbie. Yeah. And I remember being like
97
00:06:45.040 --> 00:06:47.199
woo in the family room because that's
where I stopped. I was like,
98
00:06:47.319 --> 00:06:51.319
shut the fuck up, and then
I'd be grumpy and then y'all, that's
99
00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:55.639
better to be woken up this way
than like you know, most times I've
100
00:06:55.639 --> 00:06:58.720
been walking of my life. But
yeah, the kids are. Their alarm
101
00:06:58.800 --> 00:07:03.040
clock is actually an alexa and so
you get a pick like what you want
102
00:07:03.079 --> 00:07:06.600
to wake you up. And so
for the last whole school year, it
103
00:07:06.839 --> 00:07:14.720
was this horrible sound from Hotel Transylmania
where it's somebody and I don't remember which
104
00:07:14.800 --> 00:07:17.279
character it is, singing at the
top of their lungs and I don't even
105
00:07:17.319 --> 00:07:20.759
know what they're seeing as like,
but it's loud ye and I could hear
106
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:24.800
it down here and they don't.
And sometimes it would go off for quite
107
00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:28.279
a while where I was like,
because I would push the the little button.
108
00:07:28.319 --> 00:07:30.000
It makes it so they can't just
tell it to stop. They stop
109
00:07:30.040 --> 00:07:35.199
it because I know my daughter,
she would just go alexa stop. And
110
00:07:35.279 --> 00:07:40.040
I actually, well during the school
here or school days, do you go
111
00:07:40.160 --> 00:07:42.480
up and get them now, like
or do they get up on their own?
112
00:07:42.920 --> 00:07:45.319
Uh? No, no no,
because I did when they were younger,
113
00:07:45.439 --> 00:07:47.439
but now they're old enough. It's
just their clock wakes them up in
114
00:07:47.480 --> 00:07:51.399
there because well, but I know
Grace is like hating it and dragging in
115
00:07:51.519 --> 00:07:56.040
the morning. Well, I also
changed that because I had her getting up
116
00:07:56.079 --> 00:07:58.720
at six thirty and then we had
to be out of here at seven fifteen,
117
00:07:58.720 --> 00:08:01.920
which was only forty five minutes eve
breakfast and get ready, and that
118
00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:05.759
was too much, so we moved
it back fifteen minutes. And now they
119
00:08:05.800 --> 00:08:09.079
seem to have luks time, like
they sit around do what. I was
120
00:08:09.160 --> 00:08:13.759
like, how did that fifteen minutes
make such a difference? Wow, that's
121
00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:18.399
crazy time. But now they're ready
on time. And of course I'm not
122
00:08:18.519 --> 00:08:22.199
screaming like a crazy person. That's
good. Yeah, but you know what,
123
00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:26.240
when I feel like that is the
most frustrating thing. Though, is
124
00:08:26.279 --> 00:08:30.519
to the point where not you,
but like you in general adult is like
125
00:08:30.560 --> 00:08:33.080
getting to the point of being like, listen to me, you know what
126
00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:37.320
I mean, And the kids all
filing their nails looking you done, the
127
00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:41.320
eye rolling. I'm like, that
to me makes me want to snap next,
128
00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:45.480
you know, so I could,
well it was literally She'll be sitting
129
00:08:45.879 --> 00:08:48.480
here at the table, she will
have finished her break, taking bites up
130
00:08:48.480 --> 00:08:50.240
her a little one grade, but
she'll be like, I'll say, get
131
00:08:50.320 --> 00:08:54.240
up and go brush her teeth,
and she just like looks out into space
132
00:08:54.440 --> 00:08:58.960
like, m I know something was
said to me? Yeah, I think
133
00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:01.480
I got it to write turned something
I don't know, but I saw a
134
00:09:01.559 --> 00:09:05.279
squirrel. Yeah, we will leaf
moved or she didn't that the sun came
135
00:09:05.279 --> 00:09:09.399
out. My favorite is when she's
trying to find something to distract her.
136
00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:11.360
You asked her do something and she's
like, but did you see that there's
137
00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:15.039
pens right here? Like bitch,
yes, we all see things, like
138
00:09:15.080 --> 00:09:18.440
what are you talking about? Right? Yeah, she's Oh my god,
139
00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:24.159
So today she wore everybody has,
well except from my husband because he would
140
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:28.240
die those blanket coats. That was
the big fleecy ones pull over. You
141
00:09:28.320 --> 00:09:30.120
know, like you've got one.
Yeah, Well, she was like,
142
00:09:30.159 --> 00:09:33.320
I'm gonna wear my blanket coat to
school today. Oh my god. So
143
00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:37.039
it is a on her. It's
a knee length pull over hoodie that is
144
00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:41.759
fleece lined, and so it's a
thousand degrees. Yes, it's so warm.
145
00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:46.720
So she calls her a blanket coat
because she was cold yesterday. And
146
00:09:46.840 --> 00:09:50.159
I was like, you will die
in class wearing that damn thing. Girls,
147
00:09:50.519 --> 00:09:54.879
it looks like you're in your pajamas
or that's all you're wearing. Considering
148
00:09:54.919 --> 00:09:58.600
your daughter wears T shirts and basketball
shorts year round. Yeah, her wearing
149
00:10:00.159 --> 00:10:03.639
full on. Parker made a fleece
just school, right, She's gonna be
150
00:10:03.720 --> 00:10:07.159
a sweaty mass. Yeah, you
know yeah. And I was like,
151
00:10:07.440 --> 00:10:09.799
you're gonna be too hot. No, I won't, I'm gonna I'm no
152
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:13.600
cold. I need to wear this. I was like, all right,
153
00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:18.120
it's a little baby an in freezing
mom, So what run the way to
154
00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:20.639
school? And she goes, you
know, everybody's gonna want to hug me
155
00:10:20.720 --> 00:10:26.240
in this? Who are they?
No? First? She said, everybody
156
00:10:26.279 --> 00:10:28.519
wants to hug me in this?
I go, dude, what? She
157
00:10:28.600 --> 00:10:30.759
goes, well, when they see
me, they're gonna want to and they
158
00:10:30.840 --> 00:10:35.120
go, are they? Okay,
we haven't even got you to school yet,
159
00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:37.559
and you're already like predicting. Let
me tell you. I was going
160
00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:41.679
to react you. Yeah, you're
a cool, but I know, I
161
00:10:41.279 --> 00:10:43.519
mean, I love me. The
first one I ever wore that was yours
162
00:10:43.799 --> 00:10:46.039
because it was so cold, and
you're like, well, there's this in
163
00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:48.279
my closets. I one got it, and yours is leopard print y.
164
00:10:48.559 --> 00:10:54.879
Yeah, mine's like dark blue.
Graces is pink or no blue like Parker's
165
00:10:54.960 --> 00:10:56.600
is black. Yeah. I remember
seeing Parker's being like, I have a
166
00:10:56.720 --> 00:11:01.399
navy one, give me that black
one. I'm one that's in color brightest
167
00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:07.200
color. Purpose. Yeah, it
was a gift after I saw yours.
168
00:11:07.240 --> 00:11:11.320
Someone bought me. That was very
nice, I know, but it wasn't
169
00:11:11.320 --> 00:11:13.120
in black, and so they don't
know me, you know what I mean,
170
00:11:13.159 --> 00:11:16.960
I do, I don't know.
Pretty horrible. Yeah, anyway,
171
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:20.480
anyhow, so listen, part of
one of the things that I think most
172
00:11:22.759 --> 00:11:31.159
white people quite yeah get wrong about
Hispanic heritage is Singo Demayo. Most white
173
00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:35.080
people have no clue. They think
it's just a drinking holiday. Well,
174
00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:39.200
I would even push it further than
just white people. I'd say Americans in
175
00:11:39.320 --> 00:11:43.240
general don't know what they're talking like. I think Latino and Hispanic Americans know
176
00:11:43.320 --> 00:11:46.919
that it's not Independence Days, right, but I don't think any other American
177
00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:50.679
does. That's probably fair because most
people I've heard refer to it as Mexican
178
00:11:50.759 --> 00:11:54.559
independence say it is not that.
So I'm gonna give you just a little
179
00:11:54.639 --> 00:11:58.879
tiny history history on Singo Demayo way
before you say it was at the Battle
180
00:11:58.879 --> 00:12:07.679
of Puebla. What's that it?
Yeah, Mexico's victory over the Second French
181
00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:13.600
Empire at the Battle of Puebla in
eighteen sixty two, led by General Ignacio
182
00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:18.559
Zaragoza love him. Yeah. So
it was one specific battle, yeah,
183
00:12:18.679 --> 00:12:22.200
one region in little region of Mexico. So it wasn't all of Mexico.
184
00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:26.159
But it was a pretty big yeah, pretty big deal. And it's a
185
00:12:26.200 --> 00:12:28.799
part of their history. Sure,
but it's not like the you know,
186
00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:33.639
American what is it, the not
the Civil War American Revolution. That's the
187
00:12:33.799 --> 00:12:37.360
thing. It's not that. It
wasn't that for Mexico. No, No,
188
00:12:37.919 --> 00:12:41.600
they were just fighting off colonizers.
One thing is funny to me is
189
00:12:41.759 --> 00:12:48.039
that Americans make like it's a big
deal. Like people who are not Jewish
190
00:12:48.120 --> 00:12:50.879
make Hanka a big deal. Honica
is not even a major holiday in Jewish
191
00:12:50.919 --> 00:12:54.799
religion. Wow, I didn't know
that. No, it's it's like this
192
00:12:54.919 --> 00:13:01.759
cute little yeah, Passover's huge,
interesting one. Rossia Shawna. Yeah,
193
00:13:01.840 --> 00:13:05.360
yeah, there's a couple that are
actually they're big holidays. But yeah,
194
00:13:05.440 --> 00:13:09.519
that's not one of them. But
most people think hanaka, that's Christmas times
195
00:13:09.519 --> 00:13:13.600
eight. It's like, no,
it really isn't. Well. And the
196
00:13:13.600 --> 00:13:16.399
only people who get, like,
you know, talking during the holiday season
197
00:13:16.519 --> 00:13:20.879
and you say happy holidays and Christians
are all you mean, marry krassass whatever,
198
00:13:20.919 --> 00:13:26.120
and and then try and be inclusive
and adding more Honka stuff, which
199
00:13:26.200 --> 00:13:30.480
is like great, right, But
I've never heard a Jewish person ever say,
200
00:13:30.639 --> 00:13:31.919
God, I wish there was more
Honka stuff, you know what I
201
00:13:33.000 --> 00:13:35.879
mean. I feel like it's people
like me who would be like, oh,
202
00:13:35.919 --> 00:13:37.519
so we're gonna sell a Christmas and
I'm going to make sure that there
203
00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:43.159
is cultural diversity when it comes to
celebrations, right, Like I'll help you
204
00:13:43.200 --> 00:13:46.600
find Kwanza stuff, you know,
whatever it is. But that would be
205
00:13:46.679 --> 00:13:50.320
more of like a my issue.
Well, there's so many holidays in the
206
00:13:50.440 --> 00:13:56.759
dash in the winter. Yeah,
that happy Holidays actually fits better because it's
207
00:13:56.799 --> 00:14:00.200
like, yeah, you're not saying
happy Okay, I'm gonna start your list,
208
00:14:00.279 --> 00:14:03.159
Happy Honica, Merry Christmas, Happy
Aid, happy, you know,
209
00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:11.039
yeah, Solstice, whatever, all
something. So just saying happy holidays better.
210
00:14:11.159 --> 00:14:13.720
Just the blanket covers everything. But
it is so funny to me that
211
00:14:13.759 --> 00:14:16.960
people are so bent out of shape
about it, Like, but I feel
212
00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:20.159
the same way either way. If
someone says Merry Christmas to you, then
213
00:14:20.240 --> 00:14:24.519
you get offended because like, why
don't celebrate Christmas? Yeah, someone's just
214
00:14:24.559 --> 00:14:26.720
wishing you something nice. Yeah,
that's that's yeah, agreed, Agreed with
215
00:14:26.799 --> 00:14:30.799
you. You know, it's like
you cannot celebrate Christmas. No one really
216
00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:35.600
cares. No people are just wishing
you a happy time essentially during this holiday
217
00:14:35.639 --> 00:14:37.960
season. Who they say to you. If someone said to me, happy
218
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:39.480
Hanka, I'd be all happy honka, right. I wouldn't be like,
219
00:14:39.679 --> 00:14:45.080
excuse me, I celebrate the one
of Christ with Christmas or whatever? You
220
00:14:45.159 --> 00:14:46.879
know, right right, So weird
to me, I know, the whole
221
00:14:48.039 --> 00:14:50.240
thing. But it's all that,
you know, everything has to be so
222
00:14:52.399 --> 00:14:56.200
compartmentalized the world. I only do
this, only tend to talk about this
223
00:14:56.279 --> 00:15:01.320
in my It's like I feel like
we could have a whole month worth of
224
00:15:01.480 --> 00:15:07.480
these podcasts where we talk about how
Americans compartmentalize everything, how everything is categorized.
225
00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:11.960
Everything needs to be categorized or it's
like evil and demented, it needs
226
00:15:11.960 --> 00:15:16.240
to be right eradicated. It is
crazy to me, but from everything from
227
00:15:16.279 --> 00:15:20.080
like gender to race to holidays,
like everything, we're like, put it
228
00:15:20.120 --> 00:15:22.519
in a box. It doesn't send
the box, burn it down. Yeah.
229
00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:26.000
So Grace's friend, you know,
spend the night through the night and
230
00:15:26.159 --> 00:15:31.840
she was telling me, she said
something about her that she has gay friends,
231
00:15:31.879 --> 00:15:35.480
and you know, you have to
she supports her gay friends even though
232
00:15:35.519 --> 00:15:37.240
her family does not. And I
was like, what do you what do
233
00:15:37.320 --> 00:15:41.639
you mean? And she goes,
well, we follow God's law. I
234
00:15:41.759 --> 00:15:46.399
was like, which is what?
Well, the homosexuality is against God's law.
235
00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:50.679
And I said, just FYI,
I said, nowhere in the Bible
236
00:15:50.759 --> 00:15:54.879
doesn't say that. I said,
it does now with the newest interpretations.
237
00:15:54.919 --> 00:15:58.879
But in the original it didn't say
anything about that. It didn't say because
238
00:15:58.879 --> 00:16:03.080
people now translated as man should not
lie with man, but the original translation
239
00:16:03.200 --> 00:16:06.799
was man should not lie with bullying, meaning you know, pedophilia, no
240
00:16:07.000 --> 00:16:11.000
bad you know, and bitch and
I know the history of that, right
241
00:16:11.159 --> 00:16:17.799
yeah. And so I was strained
and it was like, I realize that
242
00:16:18.000 --> 00:16:21.879
you're not the one making these choices
in your parents or grandparents, who you
243
00:16:21.960 --> 00:16:23.519
know, whatever. It's like,
it's so exhausting, it is. And
244
00:16:23.600 --> 00:16:29.080
it's just like I feel like the
people like that, not her specific,
245
00:16:29.159 --> 00:16:33.240
but her family or families like that, just like they just thrive in being
246
00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:37.080
miserable, you know what I mean, Like you hate a group or dislike,
247
00:16:37.120 --> 00:16:41.720
don't support whatever a group of people
because of allegedly what it says in
248
00:16:41.759 --> 00:16:45.200
your Bible. But clearly you've never
read the entirety of the Bible because it
249
00:16:45.279 --> 00:16:48.759
doesn't say that, right, but
you now that's part of your personality.
250
00:16:48.799 --> 00:16:51.679
But it also says you're supposed to
love everyone. Right, But well,
251
00:16:51.720 --> 00:16:53.840
and what are we reading though the
Old Testament of the New Testament? The
252
00:16:53.879 --> 00:16:57.159
Old Testament is an eye for an
eye kind of stuff. The New Testament
253
00:16:57.320 --> 00:17:02.559
is I feel good, kumbay allah
your neighbor, which poor? And when
254
00:17:02.600 --> 00:17:07.960
I when I found out from one
of my Jewish customers that the New Testament
255
00:17:07.359 --> 00:17:11.279
is not a part of the doctrine
in Jewish faith. Yeah, they don't
256
00:17:11.359 --> 00:17:14.720
believe Jesus was a son of God. They don't believe in heaven or Hell.
257
00:17:14.960 --> 00:17:18.559
I was like, wow, right, that's amazing. And it's the
258
00:17:18.559 --> 00:17:21.519
same thing as in Islam. They
don't they believe Jesus was, like yeah,
259
00:17:21.559 --> 00:17:23.000
an important man, an important historical
figure, but they don't believe he
260
00:17:23.039 --> 00:17:26.279
was a prophet. They don't.
Or maybe he was a prophet, but
261
00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:30.079
he wasn't the problem, you know, And I think that's fucking fascinating because
262
00:17:30.319 --> 00:17:36.200
for us, you know, and
a lot of Americans, you're raised with
263
00:17:36.599 --> 00:17:40.279
Christianity, no matter what that denomination
is, you're raised with a Christianity often,
264
00:17:40.599 --> 00:17:42.200
and so we learned about Christ and
you learn about how he said,
265
00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:45.480
you know, he died and we
all are forgiven persons or what the fuck
266
00:17:45.519 --> 00:17:49.720
ever, But then to learn if
there's religions that are like he was he
267
00:17:49.839 --> 00:17:53.519
was a man or yeah, maybe
he was a prophet. He was like
268
00:17:53.559 --> 00:17:56.359
a teaching man, but like he
wasn't the son of God? Right?
269
00:17:57.200 --> 00:18:02.440
That shit's crazy to me. Hey, wait, the other day, after
270
00:18:02.480 --> 00:18:07.839
Parker stopped over and he came over
here, and it was before Grace and
271
00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:11.519
her friend were downstairs, and he
was like, oh, now I have
272
00:18:11.640 --> 00:18:15.920
to re smell my bed, because
I was like, bitch, I have
273
00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:18.559
to go resmell my house right now. It's funny. When I got back,
274
00:18:18.640 --> 00:18:21.279
Gavin had sprayed air freshener. I
was like, yes, girl.
275
00:18:22.400 --> 00:18:25.640
But when I came over later to
get a package, Parker sitting where you
276
00:18:25.640 --> 00:18:30.200
are, Grace is eating here,
and Ash sitting on the couch over there,
277
00:18:30.279 --> 00:18:33.160
just looking over here, and I
said hi, and the Parker was
278
00:18:33.200 --> 00:18:36.440
like, this is our sister Annaka. I did not know that's who that
279
00:18:36.640 --> 00:18:38.759
was because from the door to there, I was like, who's that middle
280
00:18:38.799 --> 00:18:42.839
aged woman sitting on the couch.
God, she does not look fourteen to
281
00:18:44.599 --> 00:18:47.119
close up, she looks forwarteen.
Okay from a distance, I was all,
282
00:18:47.559 --> 00:18:49.400
it is your grandma. And when
she when Grace was at my house
283
00:18:49.559 --> 00:18:52.079
not that long ago, she was
telling Gavin and I that, oh,
284
00:18:52.079 --> 00:18:56.119
I don't see her at school because
she works door dash with her mom,
285
00:18:56.240 --> 00:18:59.720
And I said, are you dating
an adult woman? Like I am so
286
00:19:00.200 --> 00:19:04.039
confused. Yeah, she doesn't see
her at school because they their programs are
287
00:19:04.079 --> 00:19:07.640
in completely different parts of the school. That's fine. So she goes to
288
00:19:07.720 --> 00:19:10.759
school, yes, yes she does. Okay, okay, okay, but
289
00:19:11.000 --> 00:19:15.279
she's in the north side of the
building and Graces in the south side of
290
00:19:15.319 --> 00:19:18.160
the copy and that building is as
big as a small city. So yeah,
291
00:19:18.759 --> 00:19:22.720
yeah, so I could see how
you'd never seen people. But I
292
00:19:22.880 --> 00:19:25.440
was shook it. I was like, wow, I didn't know what I
293
00:19:25.559 --> 00:19:27.359
expected. I don't know what high
schoolers look like anymore. But I was
294
00:19:27.440 --> 00:19:30.599
like, she's a grown up.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure. What's funny
295
00:19:30.680 --> 00:19:38.319
to me is the variety, Like
they're little teeny tiny kids people. Yeah.
296
00:19:38.400 --> 00:19:42.039
Yeah, like today when I took
Parker to school and he's seventh grade,
297
00:19:42.359 --> 00:19:47.000
so you know, middle school,
seven six seventy eight. I saw
298
00:19:47.319 --> 00:19:51.720
kids going to school and like you
maybe ten, gnawing, you're tiny,
299
00:19:52.240 --> 00:19:56.599
And then people like my son with
the mustache, and people who are girls
300
00:19:56.640 --> 00:20:00.359
who are fully developed and looked like
grown women. When I remember picking up
301
00:20:00.400 --> 00:20:03.039
Parker and Grace at their old middle
school, yeah, and there would be
302
00:20:03.119 --> 00:20:06.960
girls who walked by that, I
was like, are you picking up your
303
00:20:07.039 --> 00:20:10.039
child? Like right, you have
a girl. You have a d cup
304
00:20:10.119 --> 00:20:12.720
and a full face of makeup and
lashes and extensions and nail like, I
305
00:20:12.799 --> 00:20:17.599
don't what is happening. This is
very different from when I was a child.
306
00:20:17.880 --> 00:20:21.160
It is very different. I mean
because I'm the only person I remember
307
00:20:21.200 --> 00:20:23.799
in your school who was like that
was Ale Smith. Yeah, because I
308
00:20:23.839 --> 00:20:29.039
went to school with Ana Nicole Smith
or someone who just looked a lot like
309
00:20:29.240 --> 00:20:33.880
her. Well, with her fault
eyelashes and her her they can bake tan,
310
00:20:33.119 --> 00:20:37.599
her nails, her huge blonde hair, and that bitch is like part
311
00:20:37.680 --> 00:20:41.880
Native American. Her hair is traditionally
like black. So her hair didn't want
312
00:20:41.880 --> 00:20:44.119
to be bore. No, I
said, no, bitch, that she
313
00:20:44.279 --> 00:20:47.599
wasn't. There was up, but
she was an only child. Remember at
314
00:20:47.680 --> 00:20:52.039
your eighth grade graduation, just looking
at her and thinking, did someone put
315
00:20:52.079 --> 00:20:55.839
her teacher in with the kids?
Right, Well, I'm wearing like army
316
00:20:55.920 --> 00:20:59.799
green bondage pants and like just a
T shirt, and she's wearing like a
317
00:21:00.000 --> 00:21:04.000
bowl on fucking gown with like bumped
up hair and her lashes and a tan
318
00:21:04.079 --> 00:21:07.200
and her full face of makeup.
Some of us looked like children. She
319
00:21:07.400 --> 00:21:14.880
looks like our principle. Very true, very true. Oh yo yo,
320
00:21:15.079 --> 00:21:18.960
I know what a time I would
to be young. Well, no,
321
00:21:18.359 --> 00:21:22.680
now I'm old as fuck? You
sure are? I know? All right?
322
00:21:22.880 --> 00:21:25.799
So one of the things I looked
up that I thought was fun tell
323
00:21:25.880 --> 00:21:29.920
me was fifty celebrities you didn't know
were Latino. See if I don't even
324
00:21:30.000 --> 00:21:32.599
to tell you most of them.
I was like, of course I knew,
325
00:21:32.720 --> 00:21:34.599
okay, cool, but the very
first one and then my husband shamed
326
00:21:34.680 --> 00:21:37.480
me for not knowing. And I'll
tell you why. I can't wait,
327
00:21:37.599 --> 00:21:41.559
because the very first one on the
list is Cameron Diaz. Oh yeah,
328
00:21:42.119 --> 00:21:48.519
and I'm all Cameron Diaz white girls. She as white as snow, but
329
00:21:48.759 --> 00:21:52.839
her last name is Diaz. I
says, I know, so's mine,
330
00:21:52.880 --> 00:21:57.359
bitch, But I mean she was
like Cameron Diaz. I mean she is
331
00:21:57.440 --> 00:22:03.119
Cuban. Yeah. She was like, uh, but most of these people,
332
00:22:03.119 --> 00:22:07.359
I'm like, da Jessica Alba Da, I knew she was not white.
333
00:22:07.559 --> 00:22:12.440
Yeah, you know she is Mexican
of Mexican descent. Okay, I
334
00:22:12.559 --> 00:22:17.160
didn't know this one. Bruno Marris, I just assume he was black,
335
00:22:17.279 --> 00:22:19.000
agreed, I think agreed. Yeah, I think he was mixed of sorts.
336
00:22:19.039 --> 00:22:22.160
But I don't think he was white, all right. I think he
337
00:22:22.279 --> 00:22:26.440
was like black Cuban or black part
of government. Name is Peter Jean Hernandez.
338
00:22:26.799 --> 00:22:33.440
That would have been a dead giveaway. Peter Jean pj hernanans PG.
339
00:22:33.960 --> 00:22:37.920
Oh, it's g E and he's
Porto Rican, Porto Recan Yeah, Porto
340
00:22:38.039 --> 00:22:45.640
Recan uh oscar isaac Mmm, he
is so good looking. He is good,
341
00:22:47.480 --> 00:22:55.240
but he also he obviously Hispanic.
Christina Aguilera, What Aguilera? I
342
00:22:55.359 --> 00:23:00.279
was like, what how could she
ex? Tina? Yeah, she is
343
00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:07.200
of Ecuadorian descent on her father's side. Oh, because her mama white.
344
00:23:07.640 --> 00:23:10.799
I didn't know she was it was
Ecuadorian. Yeah. Interesting, I didn't
345
00:23:10.839 --> 00:23:17.880
either. Well, a lot of
these like Ryan Lochtey swimmer Ohan Olympic swimmer
346
00:23:17.880 --> 00:23:21.920
who caused all kinds of trouble with
the Olympics in Rio. Where was it?
347
00:23:22.039 --> 00:23:23.200
It was? Is that where he
like gott in a bar fight or
348
00:23:23.240 --> 00:23:26.160
does something like I think, yeah, yeah, okay, okay, okay,
349
00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:32.119
Cuban. Wait who did you say
before him? Christina? Oh okay,
350
00:23:32.160 --> 00:23:34.000
okay, thank you. Yeah.
Now this one, I was like,
351
00:23:34.119 --> 00:23:40.559
who doesn't know Charlie Sheen because his
dad? Yeah, and his brother
352
00:23:40.720 --> 00:23:45.599
Emilio Estevez. I don't know,
But I mean, do people like my
353
00:23:45.759 --> 00:23:48.720
generation know that they're related? You
know? They look similar, right,
354
00:23:48.799 --> 00:23:52.759
but like, would you know that? What's funny to me is I don't
355
00:23:52.759 --> 00:23:55.799
think they look much like each other, but they both look like their dad.
356
00:23:56.200 --> 00:23:57.119
So so if you put one by
the dad, you're like, oh,
357
00:23:57.160 --> 00:23:59.799
I see that, but the other. But but you put on my
358
00:24:00.079 --> 00:24:03.599
other and I don't see that.
Okay, it's so crazy. Probably who's
359
00:24:03.640 --> 00:24:07.079
their mom, some white lady?
I don't know. Wait, because their
360
00:24:07.119 --> 00:24:11.880
dad is Martin Sheen? Yeah?
Is he? Is he a white man?
361
00:24:12.240 --> 00:24:15.400
Really? Do you know what's so
funny to me? Because I'm Frankie,
362
00:24:15.480 --> 00:24:19.240
Gracie Grace. Yeah, he plays
Grace and Frankie. That's it.
363
00:24:19.720 --> 00:24:23.240
He plays like an Irish Catholic,
yes, which is his stag and I
364
00:24:23.400 --> 00:24:27.440
was like, I see it.
Yeah, that's absolutely your girl, Aubrey
365
00:24:27.480 --> 00:24:32.200
Plaza. I knew that. I
did not, but also Puerto Rican.
366
00:24:32.519 --> 00:24:34.160
I knew that because in parks and
rec they touch on it a lot.
367
00:24:34.759 --> 00:24:41.000
Demi Lavado, which really, who's
surprised. No, oh, I'm gonna
368
00:24:41.000 --> 00:24:44.720
go back for a second. Christina
Rugula one second. Yeah, So Demi
369
00:24:44.799 --> 00:24:52.599
Lavado's government name is Demitria Devon Lovado
and she's Mexican. Same. Yeah,
370
00:24:52.680 --> 00:24:56.640
that's what about Christina Rugola. There
is one in one of her songs she
371
00:24:56.759 --> 00:25:00.920
says something about being Boiqua, which
means to be a Puerto Rican descent.
372
00:25:00.119 --> 00:25:03.720
That's why I was like, oh, she's would you say hid in Ecuadorian?
373
00:25:03.839 --> 00:25:07.680
Yeah, that's so interesting. So
maybe she's a liar and a horror
374
00:25:07.759 --> 00:25:15.559
So that's just a potential snooky snooky. She's born in Chile and was later
375
00:25:15.680 --> 00:25:19.720
adopted by Italian American parents, so
most people just assumed she was Italian.
376
00:25:21.440 --> 00:25:26.519
That's what I did. Yeah,
yeah, I was snuky Lea Michelle no
377
00:25:26.680 --> 00:25:33.519
idea, huh. She is of
Spanish Sephardic Jewish descent. I think that
378
00:25:33.799 --> 00:25:36.799
I think I knew she was Jewish. Well, I knew she was Jewish,
379
00:25:36.839 --> 00:25:37.640
but I didn't know that she was
a Latina. I knew. I
380
00:25:37.680 --> 00:25:42.720
knew she was not white, That's
what I knew. Now this goes way
381
00:25:42.759 --> 00:25:45.720
back, and so if you have
to be old, like mean to even
382
00:25:45.759 --> 00:25:49.640
know this is Rita Hayworth. Okay. She was big film star in the
383
00:25:49.720 --> 00:25:56.480
forties and fifties. Yeah, big
red hair. Just Spanish on her father's
384
00:25:56.519 --> 00:26:02.160
side, Alexis Spidel. Wait didn't
she change Law's name? Yeah? Yeah
385
00:26:03.200 --> 00:26:07.720
from the Gilmore Girls and Handman's tail
is Mexican and Argentinian Alexis Padel. Yeah,
386
00:26:08.279 --> 00:26:12.880
I don't know that. Wait,
she's Mexican and Argentinian. Damn she
387
00:26:14.000 --> 00:26:17.519
a white girl? I thought?
No, apparently not. Now this will
388
00:26:17.599 --> 00:26:22.519
surprised me too, Okay, Nicole
Ritchie, Oh, I just assumed she
389
00:26:22.759 --> 00:26:26.880
was Lionel Richie's daughter. Well she
I knew that Lionel Richie adopted her.
390
00:26:26.759 --> 00:26:32.759
But I assumed because I've heard her
talk about being black. And but you
391
00:26:32.839 --> 00:26:37.160
know that she gets grief because she's
so fair skinned. Yeah, but she
392
00:26:37.359 --> 00:26:42.400
is also a Mexican descent on her
biological father's side. Okay, go figure
393
00:26:42.839 --> 00:26:47.000
Sammy Davis Junior, do you remember
how do you know who? I know
394
00:26:47.039 --> 00:26:51.119
who he is? Yeah? I
just always assumed black man. Yeah he's
395
00:26:51.160 --> 00:26:56.599
not. He is, but he's
also Cuban, but he hid his Cuban
396
00:26:56.640 --> 00:27:00.720
descent because of the anti Huban backlash
at that time. Yeah, which I
397
00:27:00.839 --> 00:27:03.519
was like, oh the Cuban missile
crisis. Maxwell, the R and B
398
00:27:03.640 --> 00:27:11.200
singer is Haitian and Puerto Rican.
Wow. Louis c K. Louis c
399
00:27:11.400 --> 00:27:17.680
K, who is quite and a
redhead. Yes is what well? He
400
00:27:17.960 --> 00:27:21.200
is often considered Irish thanks for his
red hair, but he's only half Irish.
401
00:27:21.640 --> 00:27:25.400
He's his dad is Mexican, I
knowing it. He's also a pig
402
00:27:25.440 --> 00:27:27.880
of a human. He is a
pig of a human. But but it's
403
00:27:27.920 --> 00:27:32.480
like Anthony Quinn again, you have
the old like me to know who he
404
00:27:32.599 --> 00:27:38.039
was? He played? Who was
he on Batman the Joker on the TV
405
00:27:38.119 --> 00:27:44.640
show like with with Okay, yeah, yeah, I'm talking. But I
406
00:27:44.839 --> 00:27:51.599
always assumed that he was Greek,
oh, because of some of the things
407
00:27:51.680 --> 00:27:57.640
in his later life. But he
is Mexican. Wow. I didn't know
408
00:28:00.000 --> 00:28:03.599
and I don't know who this person
is. James Rude, the psych actor
409
00:28:03.319 --> 00:28:08.119
who was born David James James.
David Rodriguez is Mexican. Okay, here's
410
00:28:08.160 --> 00:28:15.359
one that'll blow your mind. You'd
you're ready and white bean a white she
411
00:28:15.720 --> 00:28:18.279
is? What is she? What? What are you banna? She's Puerto
412
00:28:18.359 --> 00:28:22.599
Rican? Wow? I love that
God from her. She was adopted by
413
00:28:22.640 --> 00:28:29.480
a white person, but she's Puerto
Rican. How silly, Chris White's with
414
00:28:29.680 --> 00:28:33.319
white is our last name being not
white? Well, I guess number indigenous
415
00:28:33.319 --> 00:28:37.799
are indigenous family half their last name
was changed to white. Yeah, now
416
00:28:37.000 --> 00:28:41.119
this one I always knew. Roquel
Welch, Yeah, yeah, I mean,
417
00:28:41.519 --> 00:28:48.039
come on, she's Spanish Spanish Bolivian. Uh, Dave Navarro. I'm
418
00:28:48.039 --> 00:28:52.359
not surprised. I kind of figured. I mean, yeah, right,
419
00:28:52.839 --> 00:29:00.720
Mexican. David Blaine. You know
the magician almost said the musicians Puerto Rican,
420
00:29:00.960 --> 00:29:07.200
right, Frankie Munaz from was that
show Malcolm and middle off in the
421
00:29:07.240 --> 00:29:12.440
middle Puerto Rican, I would assume
with the last munas cat Vlandi and you're
422
00:29:12.519 --> 00:29:18.079
that Argentinian in Spanish. She's also
a bad person. She's a bad person.
423
00:29:18.240 --> 00:29:22.000
Oh, she's an anti vaxer and
she dated a neo Nazi. And
424
00:29:22.480 --> 00:29:27.400
there's a picture of she's with somebody
and they're holding like the Nazi flag with
425
00:29:27.480 --> 00:29:30.519
a swastika, and she's all like
thumbs up about it. This was like
426
00:29:30.640 --> 00:29:34.519
years ago too, but she lost
a lot of fame in like following because
427
00:29:34.599 --> 00:29:40.920
she is a pig. Well and
I her husband. He's part of this
428
00:29:41.039 --> 00:29:44.759
band and this duo called Prayers,
and they're Chillo goths. So they're Mexican
429
00:29:44.799 --> 00:29:48.599
American goth music. And I knew
them before. I knew of them before
430
00:29:48.640 --> 00:29:51.920
they got married, before Cavondi married
him and I loved them, and then
431
00:29:51.920 --> 00:29:53.680
he married her, and I said, bitch. And I loved Cavanti.
432
00:29:53.839 --> 00:29:57.920
I remember I was obsessed. We
used to watch her a little well,
433
00:29:59.000 --> 00:30:02.400
and I know I lived in La
I remember like driving past her studio being
434
00:30:02.480 --> 00:30:06.440
like, you know, like sometimes
but like right, you know. Then
435
00:30:06.440 --> 00:30:08.839
I learned she was like a huge
bad person. I said, your grouse.
436
00:30:10.960 --> 00:30:14.680
David Gallagher from Seventh Heaven, I
don't. It's not the dad,
437
00:30:15.359 --> 00:30:21.400
No, it's one of the kids. Cuban. Reggie Jackson again always assumed
438
00:30:21.400 --> 00:30:26.039
he was black baseball player whatever.
He was Hall of Fame in ninety three.
439
00:30:26.160 --> 00:30:32.400
So you were four, yeah,
Martin Sheen, Yeah. So he
440
00:30:32.599 --> 00:30:38.039
was born Ramone Gerard Antonio Estebez.
Oh, so little little he's a little
441
00:30:38.079 --> 00:30:48.920
fiber a bit Spanish, right,
I love that. Diana Tarassi, she
442
00:30:49.480 --> 00:30:53.079
is a basketball player. I don't
know her. I don't I don't know
443
00:30:53.240 --> 00:31:00.000
any I don't know her. I
don't know her. Marina back back,
444
00:31:00.519 --> 00:31:04.440
I don't know how he's her name. She's from Deadpool and Firefly. She
445
00:31:06.119 --> 00:31:11.839
is from Brazil, Brazil. Now, I don't know what I know this
446
00:31:11.920 --> 00:31:17.359
little white girl from. But her
name is Sarah Paxson Paxton. Wait wait,
447
00:31:17.759 --> 00:31:22.039
paston white girl. You know her
from a lot of things. She's
448
00:31:22.119 --> 00:31:33.240
familiar Mexican. She has calise like
Andrew Keegan from Party of Five and Seventh
449
00:31:33.319 --> 00:31:37.759
Heaven. I don't know it's guy
Oh, I know him, Yeah,
450
00:31:37.000 --> 00:31:44.680
I knew you knew him. Colombian
alex Ma Nieces. I know, it's
451
00:31:44.720 --> 00:31:47.200
just as actual. I have no
idea who she is. So these people,
452
00:31:47.200 --> 00:31:48.599
I'm like, I'm not surprised they're
his band, because I don't know
453
00:31:48.599 --> 00:31:52.799
who they are. Who the hell
are they? Right? Because I'm looking
454
00:31:52.839 --> 00:32:00.200
at these people going Camelo Anthony the
basketball player Puerto Rican. And then there's
455
00:32:00.240 --> 00:32:05.279
some people that are so old.
People know Bella Thorne, Oh, Bella
456
00:32:05.319 --> 00:32:07.160
Thorne. I knew that she has
white redhead. I want you to know
457
00:32:07.480 --> 00:32:13.799
that Gavin is rewatching or he's watching
American horror stories, which are the like
458
00:32:14.039 --> 00:32:17.079
individual episodes that are just like one
off right, and Bella Thorne is in
459
00:32:17.160 --> 00:32:20.480
one of them. And the one
she's in is like, you know the
460
00:32:20.559 --> 00:32:24.160
traditional story where someone maybe you don't
know it, but someone's like chasing you
461
00:32:24.920 --> 00:32:28.759
in a car, tailing you and
they're like flashing their lights at you and
462
00:32:28.799 --> 00:32:30.359
whatever, and you're like, oh
my god, they're gonna kill me.
463
00:32:30.559 --> 00:32:32.000
But this guy was like flashing his
life, being like there's someone in your
464
00:32:32.079 --> 00:32:35.920
back seat. They're going to kill
you. But the reverse of that is
465
00:32:35.960 --> 00:32:38.599
Bella Thorne was the murderer, so
she was taking the dead body with her.
466
00:32:38.680 --> 00:32:42.920
But Bella Thorne, I'm watching it
and I'm like, is this bitch
467
00:32:42.960 --> 00:32:45.720
an animatronic? Like why does she
act like this? Like she just it
468
00:32:45.920 --> 00:32:50.839
just seems like she's acting, you
know what I mean, And that's your
469
00:32:50.839 --> 00:32:52.880
acting. Shouldn't feel like, I
know, it shouldn't look like a girl.
470
00:32:53.119 --> 00:32:55.359
Did they just pull it? Did
they just put robot parts in you
471
00:32:55.440 --> 00:32:59.839
from the local Chucky cheese and they
were like, hey, now you're a
472
00:33:00.160 --> 00:33:05.039
murderous and she's all danger where is
my knife? Like, I don't It
473
00:33:05.200 --> 00:33:08.000
was just so bad. I don't
know that I've actually seen her in anything,
474
00:33:08.160 --> 00:33:10.839
but I know who she is.
Yeah, well, well I'll take
475
00:33:10.880 --> 00:33:14.720
you right down to the local Chuck
Cheese. They probably still have to be
476
00:33:15.240 --> 00:33:19.119
But do you think they have animatronics
left and side? Baby, it turns
477
00:33:19.160 --> 00:33:22.440
into like Five Nights at Freddie's.
Oh no, they go, that's scarier.
478
00:33:22.519 --> 00:33:27.319
All I know that movie's coming out
on Parker's all about it. He's
479
00:33:27.359 --> 00:33:29.559
like, I want to go see
Five Nights at Freddy's. And I'm like,
480
00:33:29.599 --> 00:33:30.319
I don't know who you're gonna go
with. It ain't gonna be me.
481
00:33:30.920 --> 00:33:35.359
You know, murderous animatronics that come
to life and you know, kill
482
00:33:35.400 --> 00:33:38.400
people. I'm just concerned that your
son seeing scary stuff is gonna like traumatize
483
00:33:38.480 --> 00:33:44.200
him because I know that he's seeing
scarier and scarier things. But like he's
484
00:33:44.319 --> 00:33:49.200
delicate, He is delicate, and
like they're you know, like me.
485
00:33:49.680 --> 00:33:54.400
Within the last year during a sleepover, I was like, let's watch scary
486
00:33:54.440 --> 00:33:58.119
Stories of tell in the dark.
Oh that's too scary. But now they've
487
00:33:58.119 --> 00:34:01.279
seen it with Papaman, but during
the day, so every time we go
488
00:34:02.519 --> 00:34:05.920
he just wants to watch something.
He wants watch something scary. So then
489
00:34:05.920 --> 00:34:07.680
we find a bunch of scary things. He's like, no, I can't
490
00:34:07.680 --> 00:34:10.079
watch any of this. So we
end up watching like Goosebumps, right,
491
00:34:10.239 --> 00:34:14.159
sure, the newer ones, which
is we should watch the old show.
492
00:34:14.239 --> 00:34:16.719
But we watched the new movies with
Jack Black and all that, and he
493
00:34:16.800 --> 00:34:20.639
has seen them number of times.
I've seen them with him, yeah,
494
00:34:20.639 --> 00:34:23.199
a number of times. And every
time he gets scared, which is hysterical
495
00:34:23.239 --> 00:34:25.440
to me. It's because you know
what's gonna happen, Like, it's so
496
00:34:25.679 --> 00:34:30.280
funny to me that I'm like,
funny he was when he was little and
497
00:34:30.440 --> 00:34:35.400
I now I can't remember which movie
it was. We went to see one
498
00:34:35.480 --> 00:34:38.800
of the Disney films and you know, it animated Disney, and so I
499
00:34:38.840 --> 00:34:43.039
don't remember which one. But then
something happened. Something there was like a
500
00:34:43.119 --> 00:34:47.280
jump scary kind of moment in a
Disney cartoon that he jumped and then sat
501
00:34:47.360 --> 00:34:50.840
in my lap and held my hand
for the rest of the movie. And
502
00:34:50.920 --> 00:34:53.480
I'm like, oh baby, but
he was genuinely scared. And then when
503
00:34:53.519 --> 00:34:57.679
we watched it at home. He
still was right there with me because that
504
00:34:57.840 --> 00:35:00.639
moment knowing is coming, he still
didn't that is. So it's just it's
505
00:35:00.760 --> 00:35:06.199
very sweet to me. I just
don't know that reality because I remember my
506
00:35:06.280 --> 00:35:08.440
brother's making me watch like Nightmare on
Elm Street when I was like three.
507
00:35:08.639 --> 00:35:13.079
I remember watching it when I was
like eight. I remember seeing Blair You're
508
00:35:13.159 --> 00:35:15.599
pretty sensed. Yeah, I saw
Blair Witch Project in theater and I was
509
00:35:16.000 --> 00:35:20.039
a broken human and my friend's mom
had to sit next to me with my
510
00:35:20.039 --> 00:35:22.239
back and saying it's okay, honey, it's not real. It's okay,
511
00:35:22.280 --> 00:35:25.760
honey, as I'm like, it's
sticks. Yeah. I was petrified.
512
00:35:28.039 --> 00:35:30.880
I still. I know. We've
talked about it, maybe many times,
513
00:35:30.199 --> 00:35:34.119
but that movie just cracks me up
because it's like, why is anybody afraid
514
00:35:34.159 --> 00:35:37.159
of a pilot of sticks? Girl? Because who put it there? That's
515
00:35:37.199 --> 00:35:40.679
fine, But also I love that
it was just such brilliant marketing. It
516
00:35:40.800 --> 00:35:45.159
was so everyone marketing, and everyone
think these kids were dead. They show
517
00:35:45.239 --> 00:35:50.199
up at like MTV Awards and they're
all, but you die. I lost
518
00:35:50.280 --> 00:35:52.440
in the woods. Yeah, but
yeah, I think I was. I
519
00:35:52.519 --> 00:35:57.519
watched the documentary before the movie,
and I was all, oh, so
520
00:35:57.679 --> 00:36:00.960
this is overall yeah, and then
I saw movie. They were like I
521
00:36:00.199 --> 00:36:02.400
just learned right before I saw the
movie that it was none of it was
522
00:36:02.480 --> 00:36:06.239
real, and I was like,
damn, I thought this was some lost
523
00:36:06.639 --> 00:36:07.960
and then it would have been scary
film. Yeah, it would have been
524
00:36:07.960 --> 00:36:10.679
scarier, had you if it had
been real and they were like waking up
525
00:36:10.719 --> 00:36:14.800
and finding sticks, like a bundles
of sticks wrapped up, I thought would
526
00:36:14.800 --> 00:36:16.159
have scared the shot out of me. No, I'm still not sure that
527
00:36:16.199 --> 00:36:20.199
a bundle of sticks would scare all
wrapped up to look like a human.
528
00:36:20.360 --> 00:36:22.800
That would be kind of terrifying.
Someone could time and effort. Someone stacked
529
00:36:22.920 --> 00:36:28.039
rocks outside what I wouldn't be out
in the woods, No, I know,
530
00:36:28.400 --> 00:36:30.079
wouldn't you gut champing? No,
I say, wouldn't be going on
531
00:36:30.239 --> 00:36:34.559
some nighttime adventure. But we're getting
our actress hat on. So if we
532
00:36:34.639 --> 00:36:37.440
were, let's saying, let's say
we were being in Bantras and we were
533
00:36:37.559 --> 00:36:40.239
like, we're gonna go to the
woods and then we're like, oh,
534
00:36:40.440 --> 00:36:45.519
no, we have to sleep here
because we lost our way. Oh getting
535
00:36:45.559 --> 00:36:47.599
lost in the woods. I'm sorry. But if I was actressing in the
536
00:36:47.679 --> 00:36:51.760
woods, there would be a whole
crew with lights and sound. And I
537
00:36:51.840 --> 00:36:58.360
know, but you're I will tell
you that when I was in theater classes
538
00:36:58.400 --> 00:37:00.719
in high school. Yeah, improbably
is the one thing I was always terrible
539
00:37:00.760 --> 00:37:04.599
at. It's cringe e. It
is cringe E. I don't like it.
540
00:37:05.440 --> 00:37:07.280
It's like I need a script please, or I need to just talk
541
00:37:07.320 --> 00:37:10.400
about what I want to talk about, because this okay, you're okay,
542
00:37:10.639 --> 00:37:16.199
you're in here, I go and
you're right a bank teller and you whatever
543
00:37:16.400 --> 00:37:22.320
is like, so I would stand
there, can I help you? Yeah?
544
00:37:22.440 --> 00:37:29.960
Right, here's your gout. That's
so funny to me. I love
545
00:37:30.000 --> 00:37:34.719
that. I love things that are
improvised, but I hate improv, you
546
00:37:34.800 --> 00:37:37.880
know. Yeah, And I don't
like I don't like going too improv show
547
00:37:38.360 --> 00:37:43.039
and we're like, call out something, what should we a card? And
548
00:37:43.119 --> 00:37:45.920
then people are all fucking you know, oh, I think I heard Ronald
549
00:37:45.960 --> 00:37:51.800
Reagan or whatever like because it sounds
the same, yeah, improv. I've
550
00:37:51.800 --> 00:37:53.960
been to one improv show and I
said, never again. Now, I
551
00:37:54.079 --> 00:38:00.440
did learn that Ryan Gosling where I
started improv a whole lot of the Barbie
552
00:38:00.480 --> 00:38:04.920
movie, right, like a lot
of his dialogues, which is hysterical and
553
00:38:05.000 --> 00:38:07.920
I love that, but that's improvising. And I love Different And that new
554
00:38:07.960 --> 00:38:10.800
movie that just came out theater Camp
I told you about. Yes, ninety
555
00:38:10.920 --> 00:38:15.400
percent of it is improvised, and
it is fan fuckantastic. It is so
556
00:38:15.639 --> 00:38:19.599
good. It is so good,
but you can tell a lot of it's
557
00:38:19.599 --> 00:38:22.400
improvised. It's just so silly.
At one point, a girl gets up
558
00:38:22.400 --> 00:38:24.480
there they're doing auditions. She's a
child, and she says, I'm allergic
559
00:38:24.559 --> 00:38:29.079
to polyester, and some one of
the boys judging her says, you,
560
00:38:29.760 --> 00:38:37.960
why, why do you even know
that? Yeah, it's so good,
561
00:38:37.039 --> 00:38:39.559
it is so funny that it is
funny. Yeah, but so yeah,
562
00:38:39.719 --> 00:38:45.159
and doing improvised acting is great.
But being in improv or whole stick is
563
00:38:45.239 --> 00:38:51.280
improv is true. It's ugly.
Sorry if you're you know, if that's
564
00:38:51.320 --> 00:38:53.000
your stick. Sorry, if you're
like a big, big improv lover,
565
00:38:53.920 --> 00:38:57.960
get a line, although whose line
is it? Anyway? Different? I
566
00:38:58.119 --> 00:39:00.920
used to watch that. I think
it was Larry But they're all hilarious,
567
00:39:00.960 --> 00:39:04.239
but they're already funny. They were
already comedians, you know what I mean.
568
00:39:04.320 --> 00:39:07.159
So it's different. I think going
to like an amateur improv a lot
569
00:39:07.239 --> 00:39:10.000
of the time makes me want to
set myself on fire. So well,
570
00:39:10.039 --> 00:39:14.119
I'm glad that you don't set yourself. Yeah. Well, I'm trying to
571
00:39:14.199 --> 00:39:16.119
do the right thing for the world, and the world needs me, so
572
00:39:16.320 --> 00:39:22.159
I can't see a big ball of
fire yet. Let's talk about one of
573
00:39:22.239 --> 00:39:27.400
my favorite Hispanic people, okay,
and all of history. Her name is
574
00:39:27.440 --> 00:39:31.599
Sylvia Rivera. I know we've actually
talked about Sylvia, but I'm going to
575
00:39:31.679 --> 00:39:36.280
talk about her again, do you
please. So, Sylvia Rivera is a
576
00:39:36.559 --> 00:39:45.519
woman that makes She was a key
figure in the gay liberation movement, right,
577
00:39:45.320 --> 00:39:47.960
so she fought her gay and trans
rights. But back in you know,
578
00:39:49.280 --> 00:39:52.239
the late sixties, early seventies,
it was gay rights and we weren't
579
00:39:52.239 --> 00:39:57.039
talking about trans people because fuck then. But she was a she was a
580
00:39:57.119 --> 00:40:01.320
drag queen, she was a trans
woman, and she just fought for essentially
581
00:40:01.360 --> 00:40:05.440
civil rights. And she was born
in nineteen fifty one in New York City.
582
00:40:07.320 --> 00:40:10.880
She's Puerto Rican in Venezuelan. Why, okay, And she had a
583
00:40:10.960 --> 00:40:15.280
rough upbringing, I'm assuming, being
a queer person in you know, Hispanic
584
00:40:15.360 --> 00:40:20.679
households in the fifties, being an
immigrant, I'm sure like there was a
585
00:40:20.800 --> 00:40:24.159
lot of layers. Her father left
the family when she was a baby,
586
00:40:24.320 --> 00:40:30.760
which okay, oh my god,
and her mom died of suicide when Rivera
587
00:40:30.840 --> 00:40:34.159
was just three years old, so
she didn't really know her parents. Setting
588
00:40:35.840 --> 00:40:40.239
She was raised by her Venezuelan grandmother, who rejected her being trans obviously,
589
00:40:40.320 --> 00:40:46.519
so it's really sad. So you
grow up being like queer and your parents
590
00:40:46.639 --> 00:40:50.079
died and lived with her grandma and
she hates you and you're you know what
591
00:40:50.159 --> 00:40:52.920
I mean, Like she hates you
because you're trained and just so much.
592
00:40:52.880 --> 00:40:57.400
So she left home when she was
ten. She was forced to ten ten,
593
00:40:58.280 --> 00:41:00.199
so she I can't imagine what is
a ten year old duo. She
594
00:41:00.400 --> 00:41:04.360
made her way working through the rough
streets of New York at ten. At
595
00:41:04.400 --> 00:41:09.559
ten, she faced obviously discrimination and
violence, so she became That's why she
596
00:41:09.639 --> 00:41:14.119
started to do queer work, was
because she was like, I'm facing so
597
00:41:14.320 --> 00:41:16.840
much and so she her quote is, we were sick and tired of being
598
00:41:16.880 --> 00:41:22.280
put down. So she decided things
just started happening. That's like when Stonewall
599
00:41:22.320 --> 00:41:25.679
happened and all this kind of stuff. And then so in her bestie Marsha
600
00:41:25.760 --> 00:41:31.800
P. Johnson, both were sex
workers and they're the ones who advanced LGBTQ
601
00:41:32.000 --> 00:41:38.079
rights with the whole fight at Stonewall. But they started a group two for
602
00:41:38.519 --> 00:41:43.840
people back in the day, it
was all transvestite, remember, like and
603
00:41:44.320 --> 00:41:49.320
so for clarification for everyone, transsexual
and transgender are essentially the same thing.
604
00:41:49.480 --> 00:41:53.599
They're very similar. Transvestite is someone
who dresses up in the other gender's clothing,
605
00:41:54.159 --> 00:41:59.199
usually for kicks, you know what
I mean. Lots of times like
606
00:41:59.400 --> 00:42:02.159
cross dress theres are transvestites, people
who do it for sexual gratification, like
607
00:42:02.320 --> 00:42:07.480
that would be like a transvestite.
A drag queen is not a transvestite.
608
00:42:07.039 --> 00:42:13.920
There are different there are layers and
differences. But so so they started this
609
00:42:14.159 --> 00:42:20.760
thing called the Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries
or STAR Yeah. Yeah, and then
610
00:42:22.239 --> 00:42:27.280
that was changed the Transgender because PC. But they worked for the Gay Liberation
611
00:42:27.320 --> 00:42:31.400
Front. That's right after Stonewall riot. But I have seen clips of the
612
00:42:31.519 --> 00:42:37.639
beginnings of that movement and what happened
after Stonewall and Sylvia Rivera up on stage
613
00:42:37.719 --> 00:42:42.440
trying to say stuff, and the
queers are like booing her and heckling her
614
00:42:42.679 --> 00:42:46.679
and being awful to her because she's
a woman of color and she's trans and
615
00:42:46.840 --> 00:42:51.719
like that, and she didn't fit
in with the image that they wanted a
616
00:42:51.760 --> 00:42:54.280
portray of, you know, all
these cute white boys. Yeah, and
617
00:42:54.400 --> 00:42:59.599
so when we talk about like gay
rights, gay rights and trans rights are
618
00:42:59.719 --> 00:43:05.000
very different things, and it should
be all encompassing. We should fight for
619
00:43:05.039 --> 00:43:07.960
the rights of all people who are
marginalized. But like throughout history, lots
620
00:43:08.000 --> 00:43:13.679
of gay people haven't super been supportive
of trans people in general, and so
621
00:43:14.159 --> 00:43:20.280
it wasn't and still isn't fun all
the time if you're a trans person around
622
00:43:21.000 --> 00:43:23.440
gay men and women, because a
lot of the time they're bigoted as fuck.
623
00:43:23.719 --> 00:43:27.559
A lot of time they think it's
like a novelty to have a transferend
624
00:43:27.679 --> 00:43:30.360
or they'll out you, or they'll
say some comment to you, like it's
625
00:43:30.480 --> 00:43:36.119
not what people assume just because you're
part of like the LGBTQ plus community that
626
00:43:36.199 --> 00:43:39.960
you all are aligned. No,
that's inaccurate. But yeah, silver Ribera,
627
00:43:40.159 --> 00:43:44.920
she even she fought through the face
of fucking discrimination in her own life,
628
00:43:44.960 --> 00:43:49.639
her personal life, through her community, I mean her life. The
629
00:43:49.719 --> 00:43:52.159
ending of her life was really sad. She died in two thousand and two
630
00:43:52.079 --> 00:43:55.840
and she was houseless. She was
still a sex worker, and there's whatever
631
00:43:55.920 --> 00:44:00.639
documentary I was watching, it had
her in it the majority give it and
632
00:44:00.280 --> 00:44:05.519
you see her like house that she's
made of like tents and boxes or whatever.
633
00:44:05.920 --> 00:44:07.719
And towards the end of the documentary
you see like the city of New
634
00:44:07.800 --> 00:44:13.440
York going and like tearing it down
and she's just like outside yelling at them
635
00:44:13.440 --> 00:44:16.440
to like leave her house alone.
And it's just like devastating heartbreak. Yeah,
636
00:44:16.480 --> 00:44:21.519
it's so sad. It's sad that
somebody who did so much, so
637
00:44:21.760 --> 00:44:25.119
much for so many still ended up
in that kind of situation. Yeah,
638
00:44:25.280 --> 00:44:30.480
it's really heartbreaking, you know.
And she did so much again forefront her
639
00:44:30.559 --> 00:44:34.920
and Marsha P. Johnson fucking forefront
of gay liberation. Yeah, and that
640
00:44:35.119 --> 00:44:37.119
was and I know that she was
fighting all the way to the end,
641
00:44:37.400 --> 00:44:40.480
all the way to the end,
yes, and so, and even though
642
00:44:40.559 --> 00:44:45.440
she was houseless and you know,
had poor health and whatever, she still
643
00:44:45.639 --> 00:44:49.239
was fighting for the rights of queer
people. And I'm like, that's so
644
00:44:49.400 --> 00:44:52.039
big of you, and that's so
like a beautiful thing to do. And
645
00:44:52.119 --> 00:44:55.079
none of them queers deserved her,
you know what I mean? No,
646
00:44:55.360 --> 00:45:04.880
agreed, agreed. So I don't
have nearly that much information about the first
647
00:45:04.880 --> 00:45:15.159
percent of the name is Ellen Ochoa. Ellen Ochoa was the first Latina astronaut,
648
00:45:15.199 --> 00:45:20.519
so was it in the nineties.
She was the first yeah, female
649
00:45:20.519 --> 00:45:22.920
astronaut to go into space in nineteen
ninety three, the first excuse me,
650
00:45:23.039 --> 00:45:30.599
Hispanic astronaut. She was the first
Hispanic astronaut period false stop yeah yes.
651
00:45:30.760 --> 00:45:35.280
In nineteen ninety three, she boarded
the Space Shuttle Discovery for nine days as
652
00:45:35.320 --> 00:45:38.559
part of her research on the ozone
layer. Since then, she has spent
653
00:45:38.679 --> 00:45:44.360
nearly a thousand hours in space missions
and has become a notable Hispanic figure in
654
00:45:44.480 --> 00:45:50.280
science. Due to her significant contributions, NASA has awarded her the coveted Distinguished
655
00:45:50.519 --> 00:45:54.800
Service Medal. Up to this day, Ochoa continues to inspire women and young
656
00:45:54.880 --> 00:46:00.840
girls to pursue STEM which I love
science, Technology, engineering and math.
657
00:46:01.119 --> 00:46:07.519
Yeah right. She has a quote
Alan no Choa, and she said this
658
00:46:07.719 --> 00:46:14.840
is after she said graduated, after
she's retired and talking about STEMS. She
659
00:46:14.920 --> 00:46:17.039
said that I think we need all
the best and brightest working we had people
660
00:46:17.079 --> 00:46:21.440
working in science and engineering field,
and that it is certainly not limited to
661
00:46:21.519 --> 00:46:25.119
men or white men. And I
said, snaps, snaps, bitch,
662
00:46:25.400 --> 00:46:31.079
I love that who else? Oh, we should talk about lin Manuel Miranda.
663
00:46:31.480 --> 00:46:37.480
I love him so do I a
Darham because it was the first thing
664
00:46:37.559 --> 00:46:42.480
I saw him? And was it
In the Heights? That was his first
665
00:46:42.559 --> 00:46:45.920
big Broadway show? Oh wait,
what was the because what was the one?
666
00:46:45.280 --> 00:46:47.519
Didn't they make a moot? No? They made a movie of in
667
00:46:47.559 --> 00:46:50.480
the high Yeah? And I think
that was the first thing that I ever
668
00:46:50.559 --> 00:46:53.880
saw because he's in it, yes, yeah, yeah, and he wrote
669
00:46:53.920 --> 00:46:57.800
it. He was the lead in
it on Broadway. But he's he did
670
00:46:57.840 --> 00:46:59.880
not play the lead in the movie, right, right, But I think
671
00:46:59.880 --> 00:47:01.920
he has just like a minor kind
of a minor role. Okay, but
672
00:47:02.000 --> 00:47:09.320
he's also in Hamilton, the newer
Mary Poppins with Emily Blunt. He is
673
00:47:09.400 --> 00:47:14.480
the Chimney sweep. Oh okay,
cut Jim Jimmy, And then he would
674
00:47:15.400 --> 00:47:19.760
did he write Hamilton? Did he
wrote it? Starting it? Hamilton is
675
00:47:19.800 --> 00:47:23.440
so amazing. Hamilton is so amazing. You've seen it. It's brilliant.
676
00:47:23.679 --> 00:47:27.880
I think it's does I love the
music? Oh my god wrote the music
677
00:47:28.000 --> 00:47:30.800
and he wrote, well, it's
all music. Well, and I when
678
00:47:30.840 --> 00:47:35.079
I watched it, when I because
it's on Disney Plus, right, Yeah,
679
00:47:35.639 --> 00:47:37.320
when I watched it. I was
like, oh my god, I
680
00:47:37.400 --> 00:47:40.000
recognize so many of these actors and
actress. Yeah, it was crazy,
681
00:47:40.320 --> 00:47:44.559
but in all of them are of
color. I would love that that they
682
00:47:44.639 --> 00:47:47.440
took this big chunk of white history, except Jonathan Groff who plays the King,
683
00:47:47.639 --> 00:47:52.719
and he does such a fantastic fucking
job of being that crazy ass king
684
00:47:52.800 --> 00:47:55.320
from England. What king was King
George? Yeah? He was nuts.
685
00:47:55.519 --> 00:47:59.880
Yeah. And Jonathan Groff slay the
house down, boots bitch killed. I
686
00:48:00.320 --> 00:48:02.239
was all, I love that the
only white person in the production is crazy,
687
00:48:02.599 --> 00:48:07.639
the crazy monarch. Yeah, I
at that. But yes, he
688
00:48:08.360 --> 00:48:15.519
took this huge piece of history and
then cast it all with people of color.
689
00:48:15.880 --> 00:48:20.719
Yeah. And it's rap and it's
all kinds of modern music. It's
690
00:48:20.760 --> 00:48:22.679
so good. Yeah, it's delightful. And some of it, though,
691
00:48:23.039 --> 00:48:28.920
like all Broadway shows, for me, makes me just weep because the story
692
00:48:28.960 --> 00:48:32.239
of Hamilton is actually very sad,
and the fact that his son dies in
693
00:48:32.320 --> 00:48:35.519
a duel and then he dies in
a duel, It's like, come on,
694
00:48:35.840 --> 00:48:38.199
Yeah, whoever thought dueling was a
good idea? One The whole story
695
00:48:38.320 --> 00:48:43.679
of like the woman he ends up
being with and how her sister was actually
696
00:48:43.679 --> 00:48:47.079
in love with him, and they
actually liked each other. Like devastation all
697
00:48:47.119 --> 00:48:51.599
around. But yeah, Lynn Manuel, I would kiss him right on the
698
00:48:51.639 --> 00:48:54.239
face. He's such a brilliant man. He is. Yep, he is.
699
00:48:54.360 --> 00:48:59.039
He is what I was gonna talk
about. Who else was I going
700
00:48:59.079 --> 00:49:04.280
to talk about? How about the
fabulous AOC? Oh my god, let
701
00:49:04.360 --> 00:49:07.599
me tell you something. I don't
care about politicians full stop, never will,
702
00:49:07.679 --> 00:49:09.000
never have. I'm not going to
wear a shirt that has any politicians
703
00:49:09.159 --> 00:49:13.800
name. It's not a baseball team. It's not my favorite singer, right
704
00:49:14.119 --> 00:49:16.400
right. I don't vote for Donald
Trump and all the more trump Shire,
705
00:49:16.480 --> 00:49:20.599
right, But I love AOC.
If I love anyone in politics, it's
706
00:49:20.880 --> 00:49:23.679
saying yeah, well, because she's
real. She real. She was the
707
00:49:23.760 --> 00:49:29.280
youngest person ever elected to Congress,
and she was a bartender. Yeah girl,
708
00:49:29.320 --> 00:49:31.360
so she knows. She was out
in the liddle world. She wasn't
709
00:49:31.400 --> 00:49:36.400
some little rich girl who lived the
sheltered life and became a politician. She
710
00:49:36.559 --> 00:49:38.920
was a real person like the rest
of us, who had a real job
711
00:49:39.320 --> 00:49:43.639
out in the community, talking with
people and being a part of it and
712
00:49:44.000 --> 00:49:49.559
struggling month to month to pay bills
and all of those things. And Alexandra
713
00:49:49.800 --> 00:49:53.920
Ocasio Cortez, like I said,
was the youngest person to hold office in
714
00:49:54.000 --> 00:50:00.440
the House who Representatives after her victory
in twenty eighteen, she's her strong progressive
715
00:50:00.440 --> 00:50:02.480
stance on the issues has led to
her re election. I knew she's re
716
00:50:02.519 --> 00:50:08.199
elected in twenty twenty. And she
actively advocates for progressive policies on health,
717
00:50:08.639 --> 00:50:14.119
equal opportunities, and the environment.
And she's just all around such an amazing
718
00:50:14.199 --> 00:50:17.599
and she sponsored the Grain New Deal
package, which is all about climate change.
719
00:50:17.639 --> 00:50:22.679
And as we've seen, like,
Okay, we're here in the in
720
00:50:22.760 --> 00:50:29.639
the Pacific Northwest, where we used
to have four full seasons, and we
721
00:50:29.800 --> 00:50:32.960
now have kind of two. I
mean we have hot or we have rainy.
722
00:50:34.280 --> 00:50:37.760
I know people say that, listen
having been to places where they have
723
00:50:37.880 --> 00:50:39.239
real seasons, because you know,
people say, like the Midwest, the
724
00:50:39.320 --> 00:50:42.800
Midwest has like winter most of the
year. So now, yeah, but
725
00:50:42.960 --> 00:50:45.639
Oregon, you know, yes,
we used to have four very distinct seasons,
726
00:50:45.679 --> 00:50:47.960
and I think they blend a little
more now, but I will still
727
00:50:49.079 --> 00:50:53.039
say there is still I know,
difference. Girl, it was one hundred
728
00:50:53.039 --> 00:50:55.639
degrees a couple of weeks after this
summer, but that's just it. It
729
00:50:55.800 --> 00:50:59.239
was a couple of weeks ago,
so hot that you couldn't even stand and
730
00:50:59.280 --> 00:51:05.159
now it's it's crazy. I know. It was like I swear to god,
731
00:51:05.199 --> 00:51:07.679
it was like hot, hot,
hot hot. Oh it's first fall,
732
00:51:07.960 --> 00:51:09.360
rain, big, We're gonna piss
on you. Yeah. I girl
733
00:51:09.559 --> 00:51:15.800
with Keith everywhere mother Nature said m
h and I but I get in like
734
00:51:15.960 --> 00:51:19.360
living other places because living in LA
and in San Francisco, there are no
735
00:51:19.480 --> 00:51:22.239
season where there's no fucking seasons.
In San Francisco has like summer and then
736
00:51:22.360 --> 00:51:25.800
essentially just spring, and those are
my two least favorite. I want you
737
00:51:25.840 --> 00:51:31.400
to know how my mental health and
my mood shifted the moment I woke up
738
00:51:31.480 --> 00:51:35.360
one night or one night one morning
and I was like, it's raining,
739
00:51:35.800 --> 00:51:39.000
it is chilly. I looked outsides
overcast, everything is gloomy. I'm like,
740
00:51:39.199 --> 00:51:43.960
oh my god, I feel so
much better. But I'm like,
741
00:51:44.239 --> 00:51:46.400
all right, my life is back
to normal. Yeah, because I hate
742
00:51:46.440 --> 00:51:50.559
it. I don't like the sun. Obviously look at me, but I
743
00:51:50.599 --> 00:51:52.880
don't like the sun. I'm not
that person who's going to go to the
744
00:51:52.000 --> 00:51:55.320
river or go drinking, or go
downtown or go to club little none of
745
00:51:55.360 --> 00:51:59.239
that shit. And I you know, I've told you before, I equate
746
00:51:59.320 --> 00:52:01.320
the sun with people. And what
do I like? Not people? So
747
00:52:01.719 --> 00:52:15.800
people also you know in government soda
Sonya soda bread, Sonya pop. That's
748
00:52:15.840 --> 00:52:21.679
her. That's her government name,
Soda pop Wow. I you know,
749
00:52:21.920 --> 00:52:25.559
it's words of her. It's early
in the morning, Sonya soda mayor.
750
00:52:27.400 --> 00:52:30.960
I love her. I love her
because she's like the only has been a
751
00:52:30.000 --> 00:52:35.480
persona judge on the Supreme Court.
Yeah, she was the first and only.
752
00:52:35.920 --> 00:52:37.679
Yeah, so it's funny to me. They're like, well, she's
753
00:52:37.719 --> 00:52:40.920
the first, She's the only what
you mean? Yeah, so, yes,
754
00:52:42.039 --> 00:52:44.719
she was the first, but there
hasn't been a second yet. Know
755
00:52:44.800 --> 00:52:45.760
in most of Supreme Court. Now, I can die in a fire and
756
00:52:45.800 --> 00:52:50.800
I would not feel one way or
the other. Right. But she has
757
00:52:51.159 --> 00:52:57.000
advocated for the right Supperto Ricans,
women and children in criminal justice. I
758
00:52:57.119 --> 00:53:00.440
did not know this. She's written
a lot of children's books, is great.
759
00:53:00.480 --> 00:53:05.119
I don't either. In her books, they explore themes such as feminism
760
00:53:05.159 --> 00:53:08.039
and self confidence. Hell yeah,
they do for you. So I love
761
00:53:08.199 --> 00:53:13.119
that. Yeah, she's I was
reading about her as well. I really
762
00:53:13.239 --> 00:53:15.880
do enjoy that. She is like
the sound voice on the Supreme Court.
763
00:53:16.199 --> 00:53:22.199
One of two or something. How
you won some court eight nine, five,
764
00:53:22.320 --> 00:53:28.280
six seventy too many. It's not
you're now we're drinking too much.
765
00:53:29.800 --> 00:53:31.360
Of these are things we should know. Yeah, it's like six to eight
766
00:53:31.519 --> 00:53:36.800
or something. But they have a
conservative majority currently, so there's like two
767
00:53:36.920 --> 00:53:42.360
or three of them maybe that are
not conservatives, but she is obviously one
768
00:53:42.400 --> 00:53:45.159
of them, right, because the
conservatives are all build the wall and killed
769
00:53:45.159 --> 00:53:54.599
the queers. You know. M
So the woman Latina woman who fought California
770
00:53:54.639 --> 00:54:02.159
school boards to have all schools desegregated. Four names, Sylvia Mendez, that's
771
00:54:02.280 --> 00:54:07.119
right. She did to save the
California schools and said president for other cases,
772
00:54:07.159 --> 00:54:14.280
including Brown versus the Board of Education. Okay, yeah. She grew
773
00:54:14.400 --> 00:54:21.920
up in southern California, Puerto Rican
and Mexican, and she where she lived,
774
00:54:22.000 --> 00:54:25.000
she was not allowed to go to
the same school with the other children
775
00:54:25.079 --> 00:54:29.639
or her neighborhood because it was an
all white school. And she was all,
776
00:54:29.679 --> 00:54:31.159
oh, hell no, I'm gonna
burn it down with all those white
777
00:54:31.199 --> 00:54:35.599
children in there. This. The
next one I want to talk about is
778
00:54:35.639 --> 00:54:38.679
someone who Gavin I actually talked about
the other day because we were on thirty
779
00:54:38.760 --> 00:54:45.880
ninth Street oh Caesar saw Yeah,
Caesar Shawbez. And I didn't know this,
780
00:54:45.239 --> 00:54:49.039
that this came from him, because
I say it all the fucking time.
781
00:54:49.199 --> 00:54:52.039
I knew it was a political statement, yes see, which means like,
782
00:54:52.280 --> 00:54:55.239
yes we can, but this they
say, yes it can be done,
783
00:54:55.280 --> 00:54:59.920
but like yes we can, right, yes you can. So it's
784
00:55:00.039 --> 00:55:05.800
because he was a Latin labor leader. So he fought against like for labor
785
00:55:05.920 --> 00:55:08.599
rights in the twentieth century because his
parents. He witnessed how his parents were
786
00:55:08.679 --> 00:55:14.280
immigrants or migrants and worked in farming
and how they were treated. So he
787
00:55:14.360 --> 00:55:21.000
said nor but yeah, he had
led how many he led a series of
788
00:55:21.119 --> 00:55:25.440
non violent protests for farmers' rights.
Part of it was the Delano grape strike
789
00:55:25.519 --> 00:55:31.239
and boycott. Were over seventeen million
Americans boycotted grapes for five years. That's
790
00:55:31.519 --> 00:55:35.400
in fucking sane. Yeah, So
this man just did a lot for labor
791
00:55:35.480 --> 00:55:38.199
rights. And let me tell you
something, because the pandemic happened in so
792
00:55:38.280 --> 00:55:43.079
many businesses and I just you know, left Starbucks where so many of those
793
00:55:43.119 --> 00:55:46.159
stores, individual stores were unionizing,
and how much I had to hear how
794
00:55:46.199 --> 00:55:50.559
people hated fucking unions. And I'm
going to say something. No, you
795
00:55:50.639 --> 00:55:53.840
don't. The only reason you think
you hate unions is because you're ignorant.
796
00:55:53.880 --> 00:55:58.719
It's because you don't know enough about
the labor history of the United States to
797
00:55:58.840 --> 00:56:04.119
understand that unions aren't necessary for a
lot of jobs because children used to work
798
00:56:04.559 --> 00:56:07.280
and die, you know what I
mean. There used to be like no
799
00:56:07.400 --> 00:56:10.159
regulations there used for anything, right, there were no I mean, and
800
00:56:10.280 --> 00:56:15.800
that this is largely touted to Henry
Ford. But like weekends and forty hour
801
00:56:15.880 --> 00:56:21.800
work weeks and like that was not
a thing of the past until like labor
802
00:56:21.960 --> 00:56:27.440
leaders and people fought fucking back.
So don't talk about and on that note,
803
00:56:27.599 --> 00:56:30.079
children were not They didn't get to
keep the money that they earned,
804
00:56:31.039 --> 00:56:35.079
so their parents could spend all of
their money. And that was perfectly fine
805
00:56:35.079 --> 00:56:38.559
because that child was already their possession. Yeah oh because property property. Yeah
806
00:56:38.599 --> 00:56:43.320
yeah, but yeah, so don't
don't say things like you hate unions.
807
00:56:43.360 --> 00:56:45.960
Just do a little more research,
because they're there for a reason. And
808
00:56:45.199 --> 00:56:52.159
every plumber, electrician, truck driver
pick a fucking like trade, they're in
809
00:56:52.239 --> 00:57:00.639
a union. Dolores Umbridge worked alongside
with seehos Okay, yeah, it was
810
00:57:00.800 --> 00:57:05.519
a big part of that labor movement
as well, but aside from that,
811
00:57:05.760 --> 00:57:10.159
she also pushed her gender equality within
the Labor Union, and for the rest
812
00:57:10.199 --> 00:57:15.039
of her life she was terrisely advocated
for the rights of women, children in
813
00:57:15.079 --> 00:57:19.960
the working poor. So good for
you, ma'am. Well, there's this
814
00:57:20.079 --> 00:57:22.920
little tiny singer that no one's really
ever heard of. She's kind of Her
815
00:57:23.000 --> 00:57:27.480
name is Gloria Estefan. Who is
that? I know? I know when
816
00:57:27.519 --> 00:57:30.639
people think of Latin music, who
they think of like Gloria Estefan. Yeah,
817
00:57:30.920 --> 00:57:35.320
let's see, she's has been a
major Latin artist in the US for
818
00:57:35.800 --> 00:57:37.639
ever, I don't know, for
a long time, since before I was
819
00:57:37.920 --> 00:57:44.559
born. Yit. But she didn't
even she didn't just help get Latin music
820
00:57:44.599 --> 00:57:49.280
in America, but she made it
like an international thing like people then loved.
821
00:57:49.599 --> 00:57:53.679
Yeah, she's Cuban. Mmmmm,
I didn't actually, Yeah, she
822
00:57:53.800 --> 00:58:01.280
and her husband Emilio okay, Emilio
Estos moved here from Cuba, Okay,
823
00:58:01.639 --> 00:58:07.039
And when they came here, they
were not there was like they fled to
824
00:58:07.119 --> 00:58:10.000
here and they were not allowed to
go back home and their families are still
825
00:58:10.000 --> 00:58:15.599
in Cuba. So and now their
son, which I think his name is,
826
00:58:15.719 --> 00:58:21.400
I think he's Amelia also, but
Junior is big music producer. Okay,
827
00:58:21.760 --> 00:58:24.400
yeah, yeah, with she went
through is so in her life.
828
00:58:24.400 --> 00:58:29.280
She went through Grammys. That's great, and she won the Presidential Medal of
829
00:58:29.360 --> 00:58:32.599
Freedom. Yeah. Juter impact on
the Latin American music scene. She was
830
00:58:32.719 --> 00:58:37.559
also given a star on the Walk
of Fame. I love that, Yeah,
831
00:58:37.599 --> 00:58:39.880
I love her. The rhythm is
gonna get you. Let me tell
832
00:58:39.880 --> 00:58:44.360
you that song. I love that
song. I'm gonna say though, then
833
00:58:44.440 --> 00:58:46.679
this is awful. One of the
queens who used to do my show would
834
00:58:46.719 --> 00:58:51.280
do that song and we would always
say, rhythm is never gonna get you.
835
00:58:51.920 --> 00:58:54.320
I don't know where the rhythm went, but it has left you high
836
00:58:54.360 --> 00:58:58.679
and dry man, and it's gonna
you know, it's terrible, isn't And
837
00:58:58.960 --> 00:59:00.679
you've performed the song twny times.
Yeah, you should think you and you
838
00:59:00.920 --> 00:59:06.440
think you'd be better, you know, so trapped. No, but listen,
839
00:59:06.679 --> 00:59:12.599
there's lots and lots and lots of
really influential and wonderful folks of Hispanic
840
00:59:12.679 --> 00:59:16.320
heritage that he up. Do little
gurgle search I did. I found lots
841
00:59:16.360 --> 00:59:23.519
of stuff. Don't search gurgle that's
ugly gargle. Yeah, and you know,
842
00:59:23.599 --> 00:59:30.679
what Just like white people and black
people and queer people, Hispanic and
843
00:59:30.719 --> 00:59:35.599
Latino people are in every industry.
They work every type of job. They're
844
00:59:35.800 --> 00:59:39.119
educated, they're you know, they're
migrant workers. They are fucking aoc,
845
00:59:39.440 --> 00:59:44.000
you know what I mean, they're
musicians, they've done everything, obviously,
846
00:59:44.119 --> 00:59:47.599
because humans do things not based on
their race. But yeah, look it
847
00:59:47.679 --> 00:59:50.400
up, there's a lot of them. There's a lot of If you haven't
848
00:59:50.480 --> 00:59:55.079
seen a lot of influential Hispanic or
Latino things, do and watch Hamilton's support
849
00:59:55.119 --> 00:59:59.280
Lin Main Miranda and all of the
people of color who start in it,
850
00:59:59.400 --> 01:00:04.039
and watch John Groff be a fucking
crazy king. But yeah, I think
851
01:00:04.360 --> 01:00:08.320
lots of times, especially in this
state, in this country, I feel
852
01:00:08.320 --> 01:00:12.800
like a lot of Hispanic, Latino, Chicano Mexican people get a lot of
853
01:00:12.880 --> 01:00:15.320
fucking grief for being that exact absolutely, you know, because like, where
854
01:00:15.320 --> 01:00:19.760
are you really from? That kind
of bullshit. You're brown, so you're
855
01:00:19.800 --> 01:00:23.760
not from here, But yeah,
do some research, don't be an ignorant
856
01:00:23.880 --> 01:00:28.800
fuck and realize that most of this
country was Mexico, you know what I
857
01:00:28.880 --> 01:00:34.039
mean. And I'm going to just
toss out a couple of movies, well,
858
01:00:34.039 --> 01:00:36.880
because one if you want to expose
your children, we gotta go watch
859
01:00:36.920 --> 01:00:39.519
Selena. Well, don't watch Selena. Watch that. If you're older,
860
01:00:39.719 --> 01:00:45.119
watch Selena. She's murdered in the
end. It's awful seeing kids shows nowadays.
861
01:00:45.719 --> 01:00:49.679
Yeah, who cares. What I
was gonna say, is Coco beautiful?
862
01:00:49.760 --> 01:00:53.519
Movie from that movie made me weep? Why am I blanking on the
863
01:00:53.639 --> 01:01:00.239
name of the newer one? That's
the lats Bruno's that's the song is from
864
01:01:00.280 --> 01:01:02.079
there, But that's not the name
of the movie. I'm totally just blanked
865
01:01:02.119 --> 01:01:04.599
on the name of it. Right
now, I know what it's called,
866
01:01:04.719 --> 01:01:07.280
but I want you to go back
in time find this movie is harder to
867
01:01:07.400 --> 01:01:12.960
find. But it's called strictly Ballroom. Oh, because it's this it is
868
01:01:13.000 --> 01:01:16.719
said in the ballroom scene in Australia. But one of the girls who's in
869
01:01:16.840 --> 01:01:22.079
the in the class is a Latina
and her family, who I believe is
870
01:01:22.079 --> 01:01:29.079
from Argentina. The lead boy,
the lead white boy, who's everybody thinks
871
01:01:29.079 --> 01:01:31.559
he's going to be the star of
the whole thing. She takes to meet
872
01:01:31.639 --> 01:01:37.199
her family and to learn how to
really dance the Spanish dances and stuff.
873
01:01:37.280 --> 01:01:42.360
Because yeah, but he because he's
like doing it the way the white people
874
01:01:42.360 --> 01:01:45.159
thought him doing it, and they're
like, oh no, we're gonna season
875
01:01:45.199 --> 01:01:50.519
you. Yeah, and so it's
pretty fantastic. The movie you're looking at
876
01:01:50.639 --> 01:01:52.480
is in Kanto and Kanto, yes
it was. I knew it started with
877
01:01:52.519 --> 01:01:55.719
an e, but it literally flew
right out of my despasito. I don't
878
01:01:55.760 --> 01:02:00.599
know, right, right, right, right right, Oh, you know.
879
01:02:00.679 --> 01:02:06.519
And there's also huge Hispanic Latino artists
like Ricky Martin j Lo you know
880
01:02:06.559 --> 01:02:08.920
what I mean. Like there're tons
and tons and tons Latino and queer.
881
01:02:09.119 --> 01:02:15.519
Oh yeah, we're screaming your face, do you say Latino and queer?
882
01:02:15.719 --> 01:02:17.360
Yeah, we're I gotta go,
I know, I know. I'm sorry.
883
01:02:17.599 --> 01:02:21.239
I offended too much, man,
I gotta go. Yeah, I'm
884
01:02:21.239 --> 01:02:23.960
gonna call my white friends and Kenny
have Al. Yeah, it was like,
885
01:02:24.000 --> 01:02:28.760
what are you talking about? What
it was Latino? And yeah saying
886
01:02:28.800 --> 01:02:30.960
it, I'm gonnam. Thanks all
right, So listen, I hope you
887
01:02:31.159 --> 01:02:35.880
enjoyed us talking about Hispanic character.
I hope maybe you learn something. Yeah,
888
01:02:35.960 --> 01:02:38.480
And I hope maybe you'll go and
google something and find out some information
889
01:02:38.559 --> 01:02:42.519
for yourself, because these are all
some pretty amazing people. Yeah, spend
890
01:02:42.559 --> 01:02:46.039
some time this next month doing some
research on Hispanic and Latino people, movies,
891
01:02:46.079 --> 01:02:50.480
things, or share something with someone
else. Yeah, because that's kind
892
01:02:50.480 --> 01:02:52.559
of the whole point at this mont. You know what does it? Pay
893
01:02:52.599 --> 01:02:54.000
it forward? I'm all about that. Not with money, pay your information
894
01:02:54.039 --> 01:02:58.000
forward, tell people what's up.
I know, for me, if I
895
01:02:58.199 --> 01:03:00.599
learned something that I think is cool, I like to, oh my god,
896
01:03:00.800 --> 01:03:04.199
guess what I just learned. Yeah
yeah, and I make sure to
897
01:03:04.280 --> 01:03:06.119
say it that way, so I'm
not going, do you know what I
898
01:03:06.239 --> 01:03:07.079
know that you're too stupid? Yeah? Have you ever heard of this?
899
01:03:07.199 --> 01:03:10.360
Now you haven't, oh yeah,
because you're down. No. For me,
900
01:03:10.480 --> 01:03:14.079
it's like I just learned this thing
that I probably should have done.
901
01:03:14.199 --> 01:03:15.920
Yeah, yeah, you know,
and now you should know because I'm gonna
902
01:03:15.960 --> 01:03:20.280
tell you right, Yeah, I
got it. Yeah yeah. I mean
903
01:03:21.000 --> 01:03:23.480
specifically, I would have talked about
one thing that's always the example that pops
904
01:03:23.519 --> 01:03:28.480
into my head. It's a stupid
math thing that I'm sure little kids learn.
905
01:03:28.639 --> 01:03:32.360
Okay, that I learned from one
of our foster boys is that every
906
01:03:32.639 --> 01:03:37.480
multiple of nine, when you add
them together, equals nine. I was
907
01:03:37.519 --> 01:03:43.639
like, what, I'm like,
eighteen one plus eight nine twenty seven two
908
01:03:43.679 --> 01:03:49.199
plus seven nine. I was like, holy fucking what the heck? Yeah,
909
01:03:49.599 --> 01:03:52.639
six nine, I don't like it. Yeah, it's crazy four to
910
01:03:52.760 --> 01:03:55.679
five nine, And I'm sorry if
you do it nine times eleven, that's
911
01:03:55.800 --> 01:04:03.199
ninety nine, all right, listen
through ten through ten copy copy off a
912
01:04:03.239 --> 01:04:10.960
cup copy anyway. But if you
enjoyed our podcast sins a little note at
913
01:04:11.639 --> 01:04:16.239
it, Oh God, for next
week's read because I got a little message
914
01:04:16.320 --> 01:04:19.719
from your auntie Anne. I'm gonna
read it, all right, Just okay,
915
01:04:19.719 --> 01:04:21.559
we're gonna read it now. You
know what we're gonna go over.
916
01:04:21.960 --> 01:04:26.480
We're not gonna make her. We
don't have rules. And then you said
917
01:04:26.480 --> 01:04:29.360
a lot of time, what is
the podcast just gonna stop working? Back
918
01:04:30.480 --> 01:04:32.960
at one hour, they'll just shut
us off and get they just get out
919
01:04:32.960 --> 01:04:36.840
of You've done talk too much.
No one's even lit y'all talk too much,
920
01:04:38.199 --> 01:04:44.199
which no one would disagree with.
So I got an email from my
921
01:04:44.320 --> 01:04:53.320
cousin Anne door. She says,
thank y'all for being a foster assuming you
922
01:04:53.400 --> 01:04:56.519
know, because we talked about being
a foster parent. I laughed so many
923
01:04:56.599 --> 01:05:00.119
times. It was a little sad
at times when I realized I had had
924
01:05:00.199 --> 01:05:03.639
no control. Ever, so and
some of her stuff was like, maybe
925
01:05:03.960 --> 01:05:09.639
whatever technology is moving way too fast. A lot of folks under thirty and
926
01:05:09.719 --> 01:05:13.719
maybe before you don't even remember black
and white TV. I had a small
927
01:05:13.800 --> 01:05:16.480
portable thirteen inch I believe black and
white that I watched in the kitchen when
928
01:05:16.519 --> 01:05:20.079
cooking. I had that thing until
I was around fifty, not so long
929
01:05:20.159 --> 01:05:24.480
ago. One day I dropped it
and cracked the case and it still worked
930
01:05:24.519 --> 01:05:28.360
for another five years. So I
was sad and they quit working losing things
931
01:05:28.440 --> 01:05:31.239
from childhood. Now do you remember
when we were did our whole episode of
932
01:05:31.280 --> 01:05:33.679
what we thought was rich, and
we talked about it that they had a
933
01:05:33.800 --> 01:05:38.960
story, Yeah, and she said
the Surrey was one of the most fun
934
01:05:39.039 --> 01:05:42.440
toys we ever had. It was
two seat pedal car with a canopy top
935
01:05:42.519 --> 01:05:45.679
and a sort of rumble seat in
the back for one Everyone loved that thing
936
01:05:45.719 --> 01:05:48.320
because it was cool and they were
rich. Yeah. Right, when we
937
01:05:48.440 --> 01:05:55.639
moved from southwest a one level with
a daylight basement cottage to north Portland's three
938
01:05:55.679 --> 01:06:00.320
story gigondo house, that's when I
thought we were rich. Aluminium kids kitchen,
939
01:06:00.360 --> 01:06:04.599
which we also talked about with running
water, convinced me of it.
940
01:06:04.679 --> 01:06:08.880
The water was pumped from a container
under the sink, but to a child,
941
01:06:09.000 --> 01:06:13.880
it was running water here, so
I didn't know about this. This
942
01:06:13.960 --> 01:06:16.000
is funny, As she said,
I still feel bad for convincing Tracy and
943
01:06:16.119 --> 01:06:23.119
my sister to try the roasted caterpillar
cocoons Grandpa Louie brought us. But she
944
01:06:23.199 --> 01:06:29.320
wouldn't touch the chocolate covered ants.
It was dust and disgusting. It was
945
01:06:29.440 --> 01:06:35.119
dust though. Yeah, maybe she
must tell you it's all my favorite adventures
946
01:06:35.159 --> 01:06:40.400
and childhood memories were at your homes. As an adult, I know that
947
01:06:40.679 --> 01:06:45.239
peeps and the memories we make are
more rich than stuff. Yeah, yeah,
948
01:06:45.480 --> 01:06:47.960
absolutely much love and hugs, y'all, and we love you and thank
949
01:06:48.000 --> 01:06:51.440

and all with us and all the things
950
01:06:51.760 --> 01:06:59.599
and being the topic of our I
think they must be rich because But if
951
01:06:59.639 --> 01:07:01.599
you and want to send us something, just send it at it would seem
952
