WEBVTT - féi: A Telenovela Love Story

0:00:06.000 --> 0:00:10.960
<v Speaker 1>If you had to define swag or swagger, what would

0:00:10.960 --> 0:00:14.520
<v Speaker 1>you say to our listeners are Awalita's definitions of.

0:00:14.480 --> 0:00:21.600
<v Speaker 2>That mainly is that Jones sequa, you know that particular

0:00:22.120 --> 0:00:28.040
<v Speaker 2>style groove, just how that person defines themselves in a

0:00:28.080 --> 0:00:30.720
<v Speaker 2>way that when they walk into a room, I mean,

0:00:30.760 --> 0:00:32.360
<v Speaker 2>they take everyone's breath away.

0:00:32.720 --> 0:00:33.720
<v Speaker 1>Do you think I have swag?

0:00:34.520 --> 0:00:36.880
<v Speaker 2>You have total swag? I mean, I know those doors

0:00:36.880 --> 0:00:40.320
<v Speaker 2>are locked so nobody busts in. But I'm gonna tell

0:00:40.320 --> 0:00:42.000
<v Speaker 2>that is so funny that you would say that. Because

0:00:42.040 --> 0:00:44.400
<v Speaker 2>I was thinking to myself, I said, Alita, do you

0:00:44.440 --> 0:00:45.440
<v Speaker 2>still have swag?

0:00:45.680 --> 0:00:48.800
<v Speaker 1>I have seen you sprut this studio. I have seen

0:00:48.840 --> 0:00:52.160
<v Speaker 1>you stand up next to me and show your swagger.

0:00:52.479 --> 0:00:55.320
<v Speaker 1>You definitely have that. I think we're both swaggy people

0:00:55.400 --> 0:00:59.600
<v Speaker 1>for sure. I say this because our main data today

0:01:00.120 --> 0:01:02.920
<v Speaker 1>has a lot of thoughts on the topic as she

0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:07.520
<v Speaker 1>is looking for someone swaggy to flank her. I wonder

0:01:07.600 --> 0:01:11.679
<v Speaker 1>if anyone with that hella swag as they say in

0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:15.520
<v Speaker 1>Northern California, is going to come into Aulita's house today

0:01:15.720 --> 0:01:17.160
<v Speaker 1>and see if they can win your.

0:01:17.040 --> 0:01:19.240
<v Speaker 2>Heart, and that would be so nice.

0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:24.040
<v Speaker 1>Welcome listeners, This is Dave Alita First, we our cupid

0:01:24.200 --> 0:01:30.240

0:01:30.480 --> 0:01:33.840

0:01:52.960 --> 0:01:56.800

0:01:57.160 --> 0:02:02.200
<v Speaker 1>and very thoughtful, very funny, and famously defines herself as

0:02:02.240 --> 0:02:06.560
<v Speaker 1>a hood so we'll of course be asked the question

0:02:06.680 --> 0:02:10.720
<v Speaker 1>answer her later. Absolutely. They is a self employed artist

0:02:10.800 --> 0:02:17.440
<v Speaker 1>of varying strokes. We got writing, visual arts and clothing designing.

0:02:17.720 --> 0:02:23.200
<v Speaker 1>She also does coaching and reiki. Oh Fay loves hood

0:02:23.320 --> 0:02:26.959
<v Speaker 1>and swag energy, back to that swagger and they want

<v Speaker 1>looking for the home and you'll get to explore life

0:02:41.240 --> 0:02:43.799
<v Speaker 1>with what. I don't think we'll run out of things

0:02:43.800 --> 0:02:45.600
<v Speaker 1>to talk about today. I think we got it going.

0:02:45.840 --> 0:02:50.560
<v Speaker 2>Well, that sounds absolutely like a shining start. So we

0:02:50.639 --> 0:02:52.799
<v Speaker 2>need to find her somebody really really nice.

0:02:52.880 --> 0:02:56.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, and we will. Let's go ahead. They come

0:02:56.240 --> 0:03:05.440
<v Speaker 1>on Ina Salah to join us. Say hello, oh my god,

0:03:05.639 --> 0:03:07.760
<v Speaker 1>we are so glad to have you here on day

0:03:07.880 --> 0:03:10.960
<v Speaker 1>my Alida first. So we know a bit about your

0:03:11.160 --> 0:03:13.600
<v Speaker 1>obviously we were at a little bio, but nothing like

0:03:13.680 --> 0:03:17.799
<v Speaker 1>hearing it from yourself. Tell us what myself and that

0:03:18.000 --> 0:03:20.480
<v Speaker 1>need to know about you to find that perfect match.

0:03:21.440 --> 0:03:25.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, for sure. So I'm you know, I've always just

0:03:25.000 --> 0:03:28.480
<v Speaker 4>been trying to be real perfect and really polished, but

0:03:28.800 --> 0:03:31.840
<v Speaker 4>I'm breaking free and just being like my true self.

0:03:32.360 --> 0:03:35.000
<v Speaker 4>I've been doing a lot of work with unmasking, and

0:03:35.280 --> 0:03:38.120
<v Speaker 4>you know, I feel this fiery energy in me around

0:03:38.240 --> 0:03:42.040
<v Speaker 4>like being seen receiving what I know I deserve. It's

0:03:42.120 --> 0:03:45.080
<v Speaker 4>really important for my person to be able to like

0:03:45.240 --> 0:03:47.680
<v Speaker 4>keep up and you know, have their own thing going, like,

0:03:47.840 --> 0:03:50.440
<v Speaker 4>you know, be independent. You know, I'm trying to not

0:03:50.520 --> 0:03:53.040
<v Speaker 4>be the only light, like I really just want to

0:03:53.040 --> 0:03:54.280
<v Speaker 4>shine with somebody else.

0:03:54.800 --> 0:03:56.400
<v Speaker 1>I want to know a little bit more of what

0:03:56.840 --> 0:04:02.160
<v Speaker 1>started that journey of wanting to unmap and what drew

0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:05.360
<v Speaker 1>you to just be more honest with yourself and also

0:04:05.920 --> 0:04:08.120
<v Speaker 1>wanting other people in your life that are in that

0:04:08.160 --> 0:04:11.080
<v Speaker 1>same wavelength so they can see you and celebrate you

0:04:11.200 --> 0:04:13.600
<v Speaker 1>and witness you as who you are and you can

0:04:13.640 --> 0:04:14.640
<v Speaker 1>do the same thing for them.

0:04:15.360 --> 0:04:19.120
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, So regarding unmasking, like I mentioned, my life is

0:04:19.120 --> 0:04:22.200
<v Speaker 4>a telenovela, and so I was in a really crappy

0:04:22.360 --> 0:04:25.440
<v Speaker 4>car accident that left me with the concussion, and along

0:04:25.520 --> 0:04:27.719
<v Speaker 4>the way of my healing, which took like about a

0:04:27.760 --> 0:04:30.599
<v Speaker 4>year and a half, my mom was like, hey, your

0:04:30.640 --> 0:04:34.000
<v Speaker 4>behavior is shifting a little bit to how you would

0:04:34.040 --> 0:04:36.720
<v Speaker 4>act as a kid. We were undocumented, so we didn't

0:04:36.760 --> 0:04:40.320
<v Speaker 4>have access to insurance and healthcare. She's like, you should

0:04:40.360 --> 0:04:42.560
<v Speaker 4>go get checked out. And I was like, checked out?

0:04:42.600 --> 0:04:45.200
<v Speaker 4>What do you mean? So she was implying that she

0:04:45.320 --> 0:04:48.480
<v Speaker 4>felt like I was probably on the spectrum and maybe

0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:52.000
<v Speaker 4>the concussion put down my walls, like literally my threshold

0:04:52.120 --> 0:04:55.440
<v Speaker 4>could no longer perform. So like I was putting on

0:04:55.480 --> 0:04:57.880
<v Speaker 4>a show of who I thought Fay was. And so

0:04:58.160 --> 0:05:00.480
<v Speaker 4>upon this car accident lo and behind, oh, I'm a

0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:04.320
<v Speaker 4>high functional autistic person. And that's where my journey began,

0:05:04.560 --> 0:05:07.520
<v Speaker 4>taking off my mask, all of those layers of who

0:05:07.560 --> 0:05:09.479
<v Speaker 4>I thought I had to be for my family, for

0:05:09.560 --> 0:05:12.880
<v Speaker 4>my friends, in partnerships, et cetera. And I was able

0:05:12.920 --> 0:05:15.560
<v Speaker 4>to just get to this like raw space of like

0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:18.240
<v Speaker 4>this is who I am, right, Like I don't have

0:05:18.320 --> 0:05:21.120
<v Speaker 4>to keep performing, I don't have to be anything I

0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:24.120
<v Speaker 4>don't want to be. And so it's literally changed my life.

0:05:24.120 --> 0:05:27.000
<v Speaker 4>I feel like I'm alive for the first time. This

0:05:27.040 --> 0:05:29.839
<v Speaker 4>all happened two years ago, and so it's been this

0:05:30.320 --> 0:05:34.440
<v Speaker 4>gorgeous unfurling. I feel like a mystery to myself and

0:05:34.480 --> 0:05:35.440
<v Speaker 4>it's exciting.

0:05:35.920 --> 0:05:37.760
<v Speaker 1>Now, when was your last relationship?

0:05:38.279 --> 0:05:40.480
<v Speaker 2>It's been a minute, a man, and what's a minute?

0:05:40.520 --> 0:05:41.240
<v Speaker 2>What's a minute?

0:05:41.440 --> 0:05:44.200
<v Speaker 4>Like four years before the accident.

0:05:44.080 --> 0:05:46.440
<v Speaker 1>How long was that relationship for It was sure.

0:05:46.520 --> 0:05:48.520
<v Speaker 4>I mean we were just dating at the time, and

0:05:48.760 --> 0:05:51.640
<v Speaker 4>dating is a concept that's challenging for me. But yeah,

0:05:51.680 --> 0:05:54.599
<v Speaker 4>so that was the last main, main relationship. But the

0:05:54.680 --> 0:05:57.799
<v Speaker 4>longest relationships I've been in have been like two years,

0:05:58.120 --> 0:05:59.760
<v Speaker 4>but that was way way back.

0:06:00.279 --> 0:06:02.320
<v Speaker 1>What are some things that you have learned from those

0:06:02.360 --> 0:06:04.400
<v Speaker 1>relationships that you want to be like, no, I want

0:06:04.400 --> 0:06:06.960
<v Speaker 1>to continue that, And what are some things that you're like, actually,

0:06:07.080 --> 0:06:08.720
<v Speaker 1>I did that that didn't really work for.

0:06:08.640 --> 0:06:12.159
<v Speaker 4>Me obviously, Like the unmasking. I know my faults in

0:06:12.480 --> 0:06:16.120
<v Speaker 4>not being honest and how that created tensions that were

0:06:16.120 --> 0:06:19.479
<v Speaker 4>probably unnecessary. There's no tin, no shade on any of

0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:21.720
<v Speaker 4>my exes. I feel very grateful that I was able

0:06:21.720 --> 0:06:25.240
<v Speaker 4>to experience them. The good things from those relationships were

0:06:25.640 --> 0:06:28.560
<v Speaker 4>the closeness that we experienced, Like there was, like you know,

0:06:28.600 --> 0:06:32.200
<v Speaker 4>a lot of intimacy that I think could have conqutized

0:06:32.279 --> 0:06:35.279
<v Speaker 4>into a friendship, which I think was lacking because of

0:06:35.320 --> 0:06:38.000
<v Speaker 4>the masking. So I think it's a two way answer,

0:06:38.080 --> 0:06:41.520
<v Speaker 4>right where I crave that intimacy and that closeness, and

0:06:41.560 --> 0:06:43.440
<v Speaker 4>now I have the tools to be able to build

0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:45.599
<v Speaker 4>a friendship with the person that I want to be

0:06:45.680 --> 0:06:48.160
<v Speaker 4>with so that we can be real, so that we're

0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:51.200
<v Speaker 4>not kind of dictated by these expectations. Like we're in

0:06:51.200 --> 0:06:53.320
<v Speaker 4>a relationship now, so this is what I have to do,

0:06:53.360 --> 0:06:54.719
<v Speaker 4>and this is what you need to do. It's like

0:06:54.960 --> 0:06:56.960
<v Speaker 4>let's dance, you know what I mean, Like I really

0:06:57.000 --> 0:06:58.200
<v Speaker 4>want to dance with somebody.

0:06:59.720 --> 0:07:04.440
<v Speaker 2>Well, since you are so adventurous and like so many things,

0:07:04.440 --> 0:07:07.840
<v Speaker 2>you're a pretty busy bee. You are doing a lot

0:07:07.880 --> 0:07:09.920
<v Speaker 2>of stuff. Do you want your partner to have all

0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:13.400
<v Speaker 2>those same attributes? And join in with you. Would you

0:07:13.520 --> 0:07:14.720
<v Speaker 2>like them to be different?

0:07:15.360 --> 0:07:18.640
<v Speaker 4>I like difference. I think difference is striking to me.

0:07:18.840 --> 0:07:21.920
<v Speaker 4>It stimulates me, and I think that's really important for me.

0:07:22.400 --> 0:07:25.480
<v Speaker 4>But I've dated people that are on similar realms as

0:07:25.480 --> 0:07:28.120
<v Speaker 4>I am, and I mean I feel equally stimulated. So

0:07:28.160 --> 0:07:30.680
<v Speaker 4>I think it's more about that swag, right, or like

0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:33.760
<v Speaker 4>the energy of like, oh I can learn from this person,

0:07:33.880 --> 0:07:35.640
<v Speaker 4>Like that's really exciting to me.

0:07:36.040 --> 0:07:39.840
<v Speaker 2>Well, that swag word has come up one more time again,

0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:45.440
<v Speaker 2>and with it comes the hooda what is the hood?

0:07:45.520 --> 0:07:47.480
<v Speaker 3>Creatura? You belonged to the hood.

0:07:48.200 --> 0:07:52.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, so actually the title of my first full length

0:07:52.040 --> 0:07:55.080
<v Speaker 4>poetry collection, and I titled it that because I grew

0:07:55.120 --> 0:07:57.360
<v Speaker 4>up in the hood. But I'm such a dork and

0:07:57.440 --> 0:08:00.720
<v Speaker 4>I'm such this that has a We's just been this

0:08:00.840 --> 0:08:04.120
<v Speaker 4>queer little essence, like, you know, walking up and down

0:08:04.160 --> 0:08:07.120
<v Speaker 4>these little tolitos with their long shorts and their high

0:08:07.160 --> 0:08:09.360
<v Speaker 4>socks and their slides, and it's just me with my

0:08:09.480 --> 0:08:13.000
<v Speaker 4>bang and like piercings and just you know, being super

0:08:13.080 --> 0:08:15.440
<v Speaker 4>emo and tagging on the walls. You know, there was

0:08:15.480 --> 0:08:19.600
<v Speaker 4>this beautiful, gorgeous contrast that I wanted to emulate in

0:08:19.680 --> 0:08:22.760
<v Speaker 4>my experiences growing up and documented growing up queer in

0:08:23.000 --> 0:08:26.640
<v Speaker 4>Inglewood specifically, And so I think this title is just

0:08:27.160 --> 0:08:28.680
<v Speaker 4>the perfect combination.

0:08:29.120 --> 0:08:29.880
<v Speaker 1>I love that.

0:08:30.040 --> 0:08:31.880
<v Speaker 2>Did I just hear you say Inglewood?

0:08:32.080 --> 0:08:33.680
<v Speaker 4>The three one oh? Look at my necklace?

0:08:33.760 --> 0:08:34.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:08:34.000 --> 0:08:37.600
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, I'm a three one oh girl too. So

0:08:37.640 --> 0:08:39.800
<v Speaker 2>that must have been tough, and your poetry got you

0:08:39.880 --> 0:08:40.480
<v Speaker 2>right out of it.

0:08:41.040 --> 0:08:43.960
<v Speaker 4>Yeah. Literally, it was my saving grace and it was

0:08:44.000 --> 0:08:46.800
<v Speaker 4>my way of also commemorating the city that built me,

0:08:46.920 --> 0:08:49.840
<v Speaker 4>you know, like I wouldn't be who I am without Inglewood.

0:08:49.880 --> 0:08:52.480
<v Speaker 4>So there's always so much gratitude for black folks to

0:08:52.679 --> 0:08:55.440
<v Speaker 4>other immigrant folks who I grew up with, you know,

0:08:55.480 --> 0:08:58.680
<v Speaker 4>not just Mexican immigrants, but like from all over.

0:08:58.880 --> 0:09:00.640
<v Speaker 2>We are all over exactly.

0:09:00.760 --> 0:09:01.959
<v Speaker 4>It's my little love letter.

0:09:02.800 --> 0:09:03.000
<v Speaker 2>We know.

0:09:03.040 --> 0:09:06.800
<v Speaker 1>We talked about navigating dating from the lens of unmasking

0:09:06.800 --> 0:09:09.880
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to our mental health, and the things

0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:13.920
<v Speaker 1>have shifted right As a fellow you know, trans, non binary, dender,

0:09:13.960 --> 0:09:18.400
<v Speaker 1>expansive person, my transness has also been a big influence

0:09:18.600 --> 0:09:22.000
<v Speaker 1>in how I have been able to access what my

0:09:22.080 --> 0:09:24.920
<v Speaker 1>needs are and what my wants are, both for myself

0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:27.360
<v Speaker 1>and in relationship. And I want to learn more about

0:09:27.440 --> 0:09:28.720
<v Speaker 1>how that has been for you.

0:09:29.200 --> 0:09:29.480
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

0:09:29.520 --> 0:09:33.320
<v Speaker 4>So I started hormones last year and I feel amazing,

0:09:35.840 --> 0:09:38.600
<v Speaker 4>thank you, thank you. So I feel great. I just

0:09:38.640 --> 0:09:43.160
<v Speaker 4>recently started t blockers, so my body is changing, shifting, adapting,

0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:46.680
<v Speaker 4>and I feel more embodied than ever before. Literally, I

0:09:46.720 --> 0:09:50.640
<v Speaker 4>feel like I see the world and color and it's phenomenal. So,

0:09:51.040 --> 0:09:53.760
<v Speaker 4>you know, my autism and my transness and being in

0:09:53.800 --> 0:09:58.560
<v Speaker 4>this conjunct experience of unmasking and unfurling has been, oh

0:09:58.600 --> 0:10:01.840
<v Speaker 4>my god, a gift from the universe. And so I

0:10:01.880 --> 0:10:04.680
<v Speaker 4>think in the context of relationships, right, like you know,

0:10:04.760 --> 0:10:07.160
<v Speaker 4>I'm talking about the hood and the swagger, and that's

0:10:07.160 --> 0:10:11.360
<v Speaker 4>also like, in a way, like a normative experience, right,

0:10:11.440 --> 0:10:14.440
<v Speaker 4>and I'm not existing in that. And so I think

0:10:14.559 --> 0:10:16.840
<v Speaker 4>what I look for or what I hope to just

0:10:16.880 --> 0:10:19.320
<v Speaker 4>be able to connect with folks around is like being

0:10:19.360 --> 0:10:22.240
<v Speaker 4>able to hold multitudes. Like, you know, a lot of

0:10:22.520 --> 0:10:26.199
<v Speaker 4>men who I know wanted me, you know, but couldn't

0:10:26.280 --> 0:10:28.480
<v Speaker 4>do it was because their perception of me was like, oh,

0:10:28.520 --> 0:10:32.640
<v Speaker 4>you're not a woman, you're not enough, you're not this.

0:10:33.120 --> 0:10:36.320
<v Speaker 4>And you know, I'm just always looking for brave souls

0:10:36.400 --> 0:10:40.120
<v Speaker 4>who are willing to just say like nah, love comes first,

0:10:40.200 --> 0:10:42.600
<v Speaker 4>like whatever it is that you look like whether you

0:10:42.679 --> 0:10:44.679
<v Speaker 4>look like how I look right now.

0:10:44.520 --> 0:10:45.880
<v Speaker 1>Or which is gorgeous?

0:10:46.360 --> 0:10:47.000
<v Speaker 2>High you.

0:10:49.040 --> 0:10:52.040
<v Speaker 1>Serving some looks, just saying love the haircut?

0:10:52.200 --> 0:10:53.920
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, guessing me up too much?

<v Speaker 2>Amen to that.

0:11:47.840 --> 0:11:51.000
<v Speaker 1>They believe in making connections that fit the shape of

0:11:51.040 --> 0:11:53.800
<v Speaker 1>the container. I'm very curious about how that looks like,

0:11:54.320 --> 0:11:57.720

0:14:49.560 --> 0:14:51.320
<v Speaker 2>Choey. Let's do it.

0:14:52.720 --> 0:14:57.200
<v Speaker 1>All right, contestants. So for our first game, we want

0:14:57.240 --> 0:15:01.880
<v Speaker 1>to see how perceptive you are without having a lot

0:15:01.920 --> 0:15:07.200
<v Speaker 1>of information. This is a Wilita testing your intuition. And

0:15:07.600 --> 0:15:11.360
<v Speaker 1>while we believe in clarity and communication on date my

0:15:11.440 --> 0:15:16.280
<v Speaker 1>Alaia First, especially on this episode, we still choose to

0:15:16.280 --> 0:15:21.400
<v Speaker 1>play with them with this game called assumptions. What we're

0:15:21.440 --> 0:15:26.480
<v Speaker 1>gonna ask you is to make an assumption of another contestant. So,

0:15:26.720 --> 0:15:29.880
<v Speaker 1>for example, I can make an assumption about Akalita.

0:15:30.160 --> 0:15:35.160
<v Speaker 8>It me you love animals, and then Awalita would tell

0:15:35.200 --> 0:15:38.320
<v Speaker 8>me if I read her for filth or if I

0:15:38.360 --> 0:15:39.560
<v Speaker 8>got her totally wrong.

0:15:39.760 --> 0:15:42.200
<v Speaker 2>Well, I was married five times, so yeah, I.

0:15:42.160 --> 0:15:43.280
<v Speaker 4>Do, so you do.

0:15:45.440 --> 0:15:47.880
<v Speaker 1>I love that my assumption was pretty grated and you

0:15:48.040 --> 0:15:52.680
<v Speaker 1>just like took it to a whole other live. This

0:15:52.720 --> 0:15:55.200
<v Speaker 1>is also gonna help Awalita know how you interact with

0:15:55.240 --> 0:15:58.360
<v Speaker 1>each other and all that jazz, so you know, have fun,

0:15:58.400 --> 0:15:59.160
<v Speaker 1>be yourselves.

0:15:59.360 --> 0:16:01.680
<v Speaker 3>Oh let's go the first Yeah, go for it.

0:16:01.840 --> 0:16:03.200
<v Speaker 1>Who do you want to start?

0:16:03.400 --> 0:16:08.400
<v Speaker 2>Sarn? Can you make an assumption about Leo?

0:16:09.040 --> 0:16:14.080
<v Speaker 7>Yes, I am going that Leo has just moved into

0:16:14.120 --> 0:16:17.000
<v Speaker 7>their place recently given back the art on the walls.

0:16:18.480 --> 0:16:21.480
<v Speaker 1>You're right, very right, I love it.

0:16:22.080 --> 0:16:22.400
<v Speaker 4>Leo.

0:16:22.720 --> 0:16:25.520
<v Speaker 1>Make an assumption about James.

0:16:26.840 --> 0:16:30.160
<v Speaker 5>Given your virtual background, I feel like you've definitely watched

0:16:30.240 --> 0:16:31.520
<v Speaker 5>Broke Back Mountain.

0:16:33.160 --> 0:16:37.560
<v Speaker 6>Among many other great cowboy classics. But of course, yes, yes,

0:16:37.600 --> 0:16:39.120
<v Speaker 6>it kind of looks like they're kissing, doesn't it.

0:16:39.160 --> 0:16:43.480
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, James, background on this zoom call is a

0:16:43.480 --> 0:16:48.440
<v Speaker 1>beautiful icy mountain with two cowboys wearing hats right in

0:16:48.480 --> 0:16:51.640
<v Speaker 1>front of it, two thick mustachios, and they are so

0:16:52.080 --> 0:16:55.400
<v Speaker 1>close to touching lips. It's giving yearning.

0:16:55.960 --> 0:16:57.160
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, the tens is palpable.

0:16:57.280 --> 0:16:59.880
<v Speaker 1>James make an assumption about Saram.

0:17:00.560 --> 0:17:02.520
<v Speaker 6>I mean, the easy thing is the lush plants in

0:17:02.600 --> 0:17:05.840
<v Speaker 6>the background. And then I'm also drawn to your clothing.

0:17:06.240 --> 0:17:10.880
<v Speaker 6>There's like a really like homegrown artistical approach to you overall.

0:17:10.920 --> 0:17:13.760
<v Speaker 6>Do you make your own clothes at all? You tailor anything?

0:17:13.960 --> 0:17:15.280
<v Speaker 6>Is there is that part of your life?

0:17:15.760 --> 0:17:19.240
<v Speaker 7>I do not make my uncles. It is one of

0:17:19.280 --> 0:17:20.880
<v Speaker 7>the many hobbies I would.

0:17:20.640 --> 0:17:21.280
<v Speaker 1>Like to start.

0:17:22.000 --> 0:17:24.399

<v Speaker 1>all of y'all to make assumptions on a Wailita. Why

0:17:46.160 --> 0:17:49.920
<v Speaker 1>not make an assumption on Awelita first?

0:17:50.359 --> 0:17:53.080
<v Speaker 7>Given as you said, she's been made five times, I'm

0:17:53.080 --> 0:17:55.160
<v Speaker 7>gonna assume she loves to have a good time.

0:17:55.440 --> 0:18:00.200
<v Speaker 2>That's an amen. That's an amen. Absolutely, You're so right, James.

0:18:00.480 --> 0:18:01.680
<v Speaker 1>Make an assumption Aharita.

0:18:02.320 --> 0:18:05.320
<v Speaker 6>You love to be sort of like the life of

0:18:05.359 --> 0:18:08.639
<v Speaker 6>a conversation. And I get that impression. You're just a

0:18:08.680 --> 0:18:13.080
<v Speaker 6>really sociable, fun happy person. I'm not just buttering you up.

0:18:13.880 --> 0:18:16.520
<v Speaker 2>Thank you, James. I like that. And yes, I will

0:18:16.520 --> 0:18:18.119
<v Speaker 2>continue to be the life of the party and the

0:18:18.160 --> 0:18:20.920
<v Speaker 2>conversation until the day I die. That's a life commitment.

0:18:21.119 --> 0:18:25.440
<v Speaker 1>I love that. Okay, you are nailing it, Leo last,

0:18:25.440 --> 0:18:28.520
<v Speaker 1>but not Les. What's your assumption on a Wilita?

0:18:29.320 --> 0:18:31.960
<v Speaker 5>All right? Well, I see that on your desk you

0:18:32.200 --> 0:18:36.840
<v Speaker 5>kind of have it disarray. There's maybe crumpled up tissue paper.

0:18:36.960 --> 0:18:41.280
<v Speaker 5>I see like paperwork everywhere. Their glasses are pretty quirky,

0:18:41.320 --> 0:18:44.359
<v Speaker 5>So you're giving me very artistic cookie vibes. I can

0:18:44.440 --> 0:18:47.200
<v Speaker 5>see you like in an art studio in the dark,

0:18:47.840 --> 0:18:50.600
<v Speaker 5>either painting away or writing a manuscript. I just see

0:18:50.600 --> 0:18:52.960
<v Speaker 5>you as someone who's super fashionable and artistic.

0:18:54.119 --> 0:18:56.520

0:19:20.440 --> 0:19:21.400
<v Speaker 1>do that next one.

0:19:21.560 --> 0:19:22.880
<v Speaker 3>Okay, So here's the thing.

0:19:23.119 --> 0:19:27.360
<v Speaker 1>Our main data today has been described by friends as

0:19:27.440 --> 0:19:34.040

0:19:39.760 --> 0:19:44.240
<v Speaker 1>wild Lenovela situations at you and you will give us

0:19:44.480 --> 0:19:51.760

0:19:51.800 --> 0:19:54.080
<v Speaker 1>wants to make sure that you would behave well for

0:19:54.160 --> 0:19:54.800
<v Speaker 1>our main dater.

0:20:02.560 --> 0:20:08.639

0:20:08.680 --> 0:20:12.239
<v Speaker 1>they do, and you didn't know about the clone, so

0:20:12.320 --> 0:20:18.000
<v Speaker 1>you have been accidentally sleeping with your partner's evil identical

0:20:18.520 --> 0:20:23.520

0:20:27.960 --> 0:20:30.119
<v Speaker 5>Maybe you know I only have eyes for you. I

0:20:30.359 --> 0:20:32.439
<v Speaker 5>never took off their clones, so I couldn't see that

0:20:32.680 --> 0:20:35.520
<v Speaker 5>they didn't have the birthmark that only you have. But

0:20:35.720 --> 0:20:37.080

<v Speaker 5>Well, I very much appreciate transparency and also gratitude, so

0:23:03.520 --> 0:23:07.320
<v Speaker 5>I would start by saying, baby, this party is fucking amazing,

0:23:07.560 --> 0:23:10.159
<v Speaker 5>thank you so much. Also, why did you bring my

0:23:10.200 --> 0:23:12.639
<v Speaker 5>exes here? If you wanted spicy hot sex leader, we

0:23:12.640 --> 0:23:13.639
<v Speaker 5>could have just role played this.

0:23:14.040 --> 0:23:22.080
<v Speaker 1>So oh, oh, my goodness, this is great, this is wonderful.

0:23:22.680 --> 0:23:27.200
<v Speaker 1>I have one more wild situation, so are you ready

0:23:27.200 --> 0:23:32.040
<v Speaker 1>for this? In this scenario, it's your one year anniversary

0:23:32.160 --> 0:23:36.240
<v Speaker 1>with you and your partner, and they have some big

0:23:36.600 --> 0:23:40.200
<v Speaker 1>news to drop, and you've been waiting for this day

0:23:40.359 --> 0:23:42.880
<v Speaker 1>because you know they are the one. So at your

0:23:42.920 --> 0:23:49.520
<v Speaker 1>anniversary dinner, no big life changing question is pomped alas,

0:23:50.119 --> 0:23:55.200
<v Speaker 1>but you do learn something life changing. Your partner has

0:23:55.280 --> 0:24:00.879
<v Speaker 1>been hiding a secret bibet from you. How would you

0:24:00.920 --> 0:24:06.359
<v Speaker 1>come back from such a monumental secret? Sarn, take us away?

0:24:06.920 --> 0:24:11.080
<v Speaker 7>Maybe if we're at my one year anniversary dinner and

0:24:11.240 --> 0:24:15.240
<v Speaker 7>they revealed to me that they have a whole baby,

0:24:16.640 --> 0:24:19.159
<v Speaker 7>and the younger the baby, the more evils on me.

0:24:19.280 --> 0:24:25.879
<v Speaker 7>Added to that, chap, Okay, my goodness, James, how do

0:24:25.960 --> 0:24:29.159
<v Speaker 7>you come back from the secret baby?

0:24:29.200 --> 0:24:33.040
<v Speaker 6>How could you do this to me? Literally? I want

0:24:33.040 --> 0:24:36.800
<v Speaker 6>to understand like the day to day, like how are

0:24:36.840 --> 0:24:39.000
<v Speaker 6>you raising a child? Like what we spend all our

0:24:39.040 --> 0:24:41.320
<v Speaker 6>time to I would literally want to know just like

0:24:41.720 --> 0:24:44.320
<v Speaker 6>what their schedule is, Like I'm actually kind of impressed,

0:24:44.840 --> 0:24:47.760
<v Speaker 6>first of all, the second of all, you know, just

0:24:47.800 --> 0:24:49.639
<v Speaker 6>get to the emotional truth of it, because if they

0:24:49.640 --> 0:24:51.399
<v Speaker 6>can't share that with me, and what else can't they

0:24:51.400 --> 0:24:53.120
<v Speaker 6>share with me? Maybe we got some work to do

0:24:53.440 --> 0:24:56.159
<v Speaker 6>and we can't get out over a couple episodes, and

0:24:56.280 --> 0:24:59.800
<v Speaker 6>will they won't they get together again over a couple

0:24:59.800 --> 0:25:03.880
<v Speaker 6>of ultimately end up falling back in love and right

0:25:03.880 --> 0:25:06.280
<v Speaker 6>away to the sunset, this is amazing.

0:25:06.400 --> 0:25:07.879
<v Speaker 1>You just like wrote a whole series.

0:25:08.760 --> 0:25:12.560
<v Speaker 3>And on that note, we're going to Lei leil jellous.

0:25:14.359 --> 0:25:14.560
<v Speaker 1>Well.

0:25:14.600 --> 0:25:17.879
<v Speaker 5>To be honest, I would probably just start crying and

0:25:17.960 --> 0:25:20.359
<v Speaker 5>not say anything for a while, just straight up crying,

0:25:20.720 --> 0:25:24.119
<v Speaker 5>and they wouldn't know if I'm crying out of joy anger,

0:25:25.520 --> 0:25:29.720
<v Speaker 5>And after some time I would probably say, so you

0:25:29.840 --> 0:25:31.960
<v Speaker 5>kept this baby from me so I would fall in

0:25:31.960 --> 0:25:33.439
<v Speaker 5>love with you more slowly?

0:25:33.600 --> 0:25:38.880
<v Speaker 1>Right, Oh dang, dang keeping a secret for that long,

0:25:39.000 --> 0:25:41.880
<v Speaker 1>It's like you're trying to manipulate the outcome. Here, what's

0:25:41.920 --> 0:25:47.480
<v Speaker 1>going on? Wow? These were some fantastic responses. I would

0:25:47.600 --> 0:25:50.639
<v Speaker 1>watch all these spinoffs. I am so here for this.

0:25:51.200 --> 0:25:54.800
<v Speaker 1>So we played the games and we just could not

0:25:55.320 --> 0:25:59.560
<v Speaker 1>get enough of all of you. So you want all

0:26:09.760 --> 0:26:12.159

0:26:17.720 --> 0:26:22.639
<v Speaker 1>some more direct questions in which you can, you know,

0:26:22.720 --> 0:26:25.840

0:26:25.920 --> 0:26:28.600

0:26:36.880 --> 0:26:39.320
<v Speaker 1>go ahead and hand you over to a Wilita for

0:26:39.440 --> 0:26:43.159
<v Speaker 1>a nice dive into the deepness of our soul.

0:26:44.160 --> 0:26:44.840
<v Speaker 3>Ta get away.

0:26:45.040 --> 0:26:46.040
<v Speaker 2>How are you, my love?

0:26:46.600 --> 0:26:48.520
<v Speaker 7>I'm doing well, beautiful here.

0:26:49.040 --> 0:26:52.760
<v Speaker 2>Oh there I go clean eggs. Talk to me about

0:26:52.760 --> 0:26:53.720
<v Speaker 2>your love life.

0:26:53.880 --> 0:26:57.760
<v Speaker 7>My love life is basically non existence. I have someone

0:26:57.840 --> 0:27:00.960
<v Speaker 7>for whom work is very important. For me, life is

0:27:01.000 --> 0:27:04.200
<v Speaker 7>very important to me, and so for me, a relationship

0:27:04.359 --> 0:27:07.560
<v Speaker 7>is like the joy of life. It doesn't make life

0:27:07.680 --> 0:27:12.800
<v Speaker 7>joyful so for me, like I'm about having a good time, living, loving.

0:27:13.400 --> 0:27:17.560
<v Speaker 7>If I find a partner that comes to match that energy, great,

0:27:17.840 --> 0:27:20.439
<v Speaker 7>But for me, like being in a relationship is not

0:27:20.840 --> 0:27:23.359
<v Speaker 7>going to be everything. For me, I think actually happy

0:27:23.440 --> 0:27:26.640
<v Speaker 7>alone first. So I've been focusing on me, looking forward

0:27:26.680 --> 0:27:29.719
<v Speaker 7>to relationship, looking forward to finding someone to honor my energy,

0:27:30.080 --> 0:27:32.560
<v Speaker 7>and I love, I just haven't found the right person yet.

0:27:32.840 --> 0:27:34.640
<v Speaker 2>How long was your last relationship?

0:27:34.920 --> 0:27:36.200
<v Speaker 7>I have been in that ship for forever.

0:27:36.560 --> 0:27:39.280
<v Speaker 2>Oh you've never been on one? Just dating then all

0:27:39.320 --> 0:27:39.840
<v Speaker 2>the way through?

0:27:40.000 --> 0:27:41.760
<v Speaker 7>I mean, yeah, exactly, yeah.

0:27:41.800 --> 0:27:44.159
<v Speaker 2>And what are your biggest red flags something that you

0:27:44.200 --> 0:27:46.320
<v Speaker 2>do not want to bring into your relationship?

0:27:46.640 --> 0:27:49.159
<v Speaker 7>I would say my biggest red flag is that I

0:27:49.200 --> 0:27:51.840
<v Speaker 7>feel like I'm always right, and so if there's an

0:27:51.920 --> 0:27:56.359
<v Speaker 7>argument and it's between being right and being connected, I

0:27:56.359 --> 0:27:57.880
<v Speaker 7>will most often choose being right.

0:27:59.320 --> 0:28:02.040
<v Speaker 3>Definitely do work on good. And what is your biggest

0:28:02.080 --> 0:28:02.720
<v Speaker 3>green flag?

0:28:03.200 --> 0:28:06.000
<v Speaker 7>I would say my biggest green flag is that I'm

0:28:06.200 --> 0:28:09.159
<v Speaker 7>very perceptive, Like I want to be able to like

0:28:09.200 --> 0:28:12.959
<v Speaker 7>preempt your need, preempt what you want or desire. So

0:28:13.000 --> 0:28:15.080
<v Speaker 7>I will try to listen to my partners, listen to

0:28:15.080 --> 0:28:17.159
<v Speaker 7>what they want, and you know, if they save the

0:28:17.280 --> 0:28:20.159
<v Speaker 7>likes of something, you know, then I'm make sure to

0:28:20.200 --> 0:28:22.520
<v Speaker 7>bake them that dessert. When they, you know, feel sad

0:28:22.680 --> 0:28:25.239
<v Speaker 7>or if they say something reminds them of something, then

0:28:25.280 --> 0:28:27.879
<v Speaker 7>I'll like save that song and I'll play it for

0:28:27.960 --> 0:28:28.879
<v Speaker 7>them at very moment.

0:28:29.000 --> 0:28:29.159
<v Speaker 4>You know.

0:28:29.240 --> 0:28:31.359
<v Speaker 7>It's just about you know, the little things.

0:28:31.440 --> 0:28:34.920
<v Speaker 2>So see, you're not always right. You do like to compromise,

0:28:35.000 --> 0:28:37.639
<v Speaker 2>so that's a beautiful thing. Thank you so much for

0:28:37.680 --> 0:28:39.200
<v Speaker 2>your time. I really appreciate it.

0:28:40.200 --> 0:28:43.720
<v Speaker 1>Thank you so much, Sean. Let's bring the next week

<v Speaker 1>their energy.

<v Speaker 3>Come in.

0:28:59.400 --> 0:29:05.560
<v Speaker 1>Helloji, I am handling you over for a lit looka fish.

0:29:05.920 --> 0:29:06.640
<v Speaker 1>Take it away.

0:29:07.480 --> 0:29:09.560
<v Speaker 3>How are you, James?

0:29:09.760 --> 0:29:11.440
<v Speaker 4>I'm good. I'm having a blast.

0:29:11.640 --> 0:29:14.840
<v Speaker 6>I'm also terrified and shaking in my boots not cowboy boots.

0:29:14.840 --> 0:29:15.560
<v Speaker 6>To keep it on Thame.

0:29:15.640 --> 0:29:18.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, your love life? What has that been about?

0:29:18.760 --> 0:29:22.120
<v Speaker 6>My love life has just been a series of one

0:29:22.200 --> 0:29:25.120
<v Speaker 6>to three year relationships over the course of my twenties,

0:29:25.200 --> 0:29:27.760
<v Speaker 6>and then my last one was a two year thing

0:29:28.280 --> 0:29:31.080
<v Speaker 6>that ended kind of still fresh out of that.

0:29:31.240 --> 0:29:33.720
<v Speaker 2>What is fresh about it in your mind still.

0:29:33.720 --> 0:29:37.360
<v Speaker 6>I think just what I took away from it, which was, well,

0:29:37.400 --> 0:29:39.720
<v Speaker 6>the difference between like a romance and love that is

0:29:39.720 --> 0:29:42.080
<v Speaker 6>the result of like a nervous system roller coaster that

0:29:42.120 --> 0:29:44.920
<v Speaker 6>you get from just meeting someone new and feeling seen

0:29:44.960 --> 0:29:49.040
<v Speaker 6>and cared for, and the love that rises from like

0:29:49.120 --> 0:29:51.920
<v Speaker 6>mutual respect and trust and safety, which is very very

0:29:51.920 --> 0:29:55.680
<v Speaker 6>slow burned, but I think more longstanding and seaworthy.

0:29:56.240 --> 0:29:58.400
<v Speaker 2>Let me ask you, was this like a little pattern

0:29:58.440 --> 0:30:01.520
<v Speaker 2>that maybe you finally know notice since your relationships and

0:30:01.520 --> 0:30:04.080
<v Speaker 2>the bass had been again two three years and then

0:30:04.120 --> 0:30:05.080
<v Speaker 2>moving on to the next.

0:30:05.160 --> 0:30:08.080
<v Speaker 6>Oh for sure. I've been spending most of my adult

0:30:08.120 --> 0:30:10.120
<v Speaker 6>life trying to find out where to be, where to

0:30:10.120 --> 0:30:12.600
<v Speaker 6>plant roots, and a lot of those relationships kind of

0:30:12.640 --> 0:30:15.800
<v Speaker 6>like happened as soon as I got somewhere, I would

0:30:15.800 --> 0:30:20.600
<v Speaker 6>just find somebody pin my whole like safety net reciprocal

0:30:20.720 --> 0:30:23.200
<v Speaker 6>well being on like a single person, which is just

0:30:23.200 --> 0:30:26.720
<v Speaker 6>too much for them and not safe for me. And

0:30:27.200 --> 0:30:29.600
<v Speaker 6>since planting myself back in the Bay Area, I have

0:30:29.760 --> 0:30:32.800
<v Speaker 6>learned as a result of this last relationship, having that

0:30:33.000 --> 0:30:37.760
<v Speaker 6>social safety net your friends as a foundation is vital

0:30:37.920 --> 0:30:41.440
<v Speaker 6>and necessary for me to even want to think about

0:30:41.520 --> 0:30:42.760
<v Speaker 6>falling in love with anybody.

0:30:42.840 --> 0:30:45.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, now, James, and if the main data was sitting

0:30:45.520 --> 0:30:48.680
<v Speaker 2>right next to me, what would you say to them?

0:30:49.480 --> 0:30:52.080
<v Speaker 3>One beautiful thing to look forward to with you?

0:30:52.800 --> 0:30:56.440
<v Speaker 6>I think I just have like inherent curiosity and playfulness

0:30:56.480 --> 0:30:58.600
<v Speaker 6>and a lot of the stuff I'd like to do

0:30:58.720 --> 0:31:01.959
<v Speaker 6>or like do with people. I love is to get

0:31:02.000 --> 0:31:04.680
<v Speaker 6>in the car and go and just find a strange

0:31:04.680 --> 0:31:08.400
<v Speaker 6>small town with a corny art gallery and a bad

0:31:08.560 --> 0:31:12.280
<v Speaker 6>candy shop and just you know, delight in the odd

0:31:12.320 --> 0:31:14.479
<v Speaker 6>detail out in the world. I think, like what I

0:31:14.520 --> 0:31:16.640
<v Speaker 6>love in a partner that I'm really close to is

0:31:16.840 --> 0:31:19.120
<v Speaker 6>how I see the world through them and vice versa,

0:31:19.560 --> 0:31:21.440
<v Speaker 6>and how that enriches us both. And I think like

0:31:22.120 --> 0:31:24.560
<v Speaker 6>just going on a tour that say it's our curiosity

0:31:24.600 --> 0:31:25.680
<v Speaker 6>and following that energy.

0:31:25.960 --> 0:31:28.880
<v Speaker 2>James, I love your heart. Thank you, Thank you for

0:31:28.920 --> 0:31:30.200
<v Speaker 2>your time. I appreciate it.

0:31:30.480 --> 0:31:30.800
<v Speaker 7>Thank you.

0:31:32.120 --> 0:31:34.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, thank you so much for that. James. Shall we

0:31:34.800 --> 0:31:40.080
<v Speaker 1>bring the Leo? Yeah, all right, Leo Calony, welcome to

0:31:40.280 --> 0:31:45.760
<v Speaker 1>Ahlitas Salita grunda fescdo take it away with Leo.

0:31:46.240 --> 0:31:47.200
<v Speaker 2>How are you, my love?

0:31:47.480 --> 0:31:47.840
<v Speaker 5>I'm good?

0:31:47.880 --> 0:31:48.320
<v Speaker 4>How are you?

0:31:48.560 --> 0:31:52.080
<v Speaker 2>I am doing great? Meeting amazing human beings like you,

0:31:52.760 --> 0:31:55.080
<v Speaker 2>so tell me a little bit about what love has

0:31:55.120 --> 0:31:56.040
<v Speaker 2>been like for you.

0:31:56.600 --> 0:31:59.640
<v Speaker 5>To be honest, love has been pretty rocky for me,

0:32:00.120 --> 0:32:02.240
<v Speaker 5>which is why I started working with the Dating Coach

0:32:02.240 --> 0:32:05.239
<v Speaker 5>at the beginning of this year. I was realizing that

0:32:05.480 --> 0:32:09.680
<v Speaker 5>I was leading my dating life with chemistry rather than

0:32:10.320 --> 0:32:16.000
<v Speaker 5>with compatibility and relationships life style values. Maybe you might

0:32:16.040 --> 0:32:18.240
<v Speaker 5>know a little bit about that given how many times

0:32:18.280 --> 0:32:19.120
<v Speaker 5>you've been married.

0:32:18.840 --> 0:32:22.959
<v Speaker 2>To So absolutely I know one thousand percent about that.

0:32:23.520 --> 0:32:26.360
<v Speaker 2>So we move on from that and we learn, So

0:32:26.440 --> 0:32:28.880
<v Speaker 2>what are the biggest things you do want in a

0:32:29.000 --> 0:32:30.880
<v Speaker 2>relationship because you've learned about it.

0:32:31.320 --> 0:32:33.800
<v Speaker 5>Something that is very important for me is that we

0:32:33.920 --> 0:32:37.720
<v Speaker 5>both feel truly seen as people, as human beings.

0:32:38.000 --> 0:32:38.239
<v Speaker 2>You know.

0:32:38.280 --> 0:32:41.320
<v Speaker 5>I feel like we go through life playing so many roles,

0:32:41.600 --> 0:32:45.640
<v Speaker 5>for example, my day job VP of Engineering or adult performer.

0:32:46.320 --> 0:32:48.120
<v Speaker 5>But at the end of the day, I just want

0:32:48.200 --> 0:32:52.000
<v Speaker 5>to be able to share quiet, small moments with somebody

0:32:52.040 --> 0:32:54.920
<v Speaker 5>who can be themselves around me and vice versa.

0:32:55.080 --> 0:32:58.520
<v Speaker 3>Okay, I'm crying because I am.

0:32:58.840 --> 0:33:01.959
<v Speaker 2>The heart is so manding of the things that we want,

0:33:02.400 --> 0:33:05.160
<v Speaker 2>and a lot of times there's a little blinders that

0:33:05.280 --> 0:33:08.840
<v Speaker 2>go with it. So now that you've taken those blinders off.

0:33:09.120 --> 0:33:11.360
<v Speaker 2>What do you tell the main data about what your

0:33:11.440 --> 0:33:12.560
<v Speaker 2>life would be like?

0:33:13.280 --> 0:33:16.200
<v Speaker 5>My life would be pretty much the same as it

0:33:16.280 --> 0:33:18.880
<v Speaker 5>is now, except with like the cherry on top of

0:33:18.880 --> 0:33:21.360
<v Speaker 5>being able to share it with somebody, being able to

0:33:21.440 --> 0:33:25.120
<v Speaker 5>make plans in the future together. I want my partner

0:33:25.160 --> 0:33:28.880
<v Speaker 5>to feel that they have full freedom to pursue their purpose,

0:33:29.120 --> 0:33:33.240
<v Speaker 5>their goals, have their community and their hobbies, and my

0:33:33.440 --> 0:33:36.520
<v Speaker 5>role would be to support them in those goals and

0:33:36.920 --> 0:33:38.959
<v Speaker 5>making sure they have a full life. And that's what

0:33:39.000 --> 0:33:40.920
<v Speaker 5>I would expect as well from my partner.

0:33:41.240 --> 0:33:42.680
<v Speaker 2>Are you an adventurous person?

0:33:44.000 --> 0:33:46.920
<v Speaker 5>Yeah? I am. I like to travel. Part of what

0:33:47.080 --> 0:33:49.360
<v Speaker 5>makes my job so exciting is I get to do

0:33:49.440 --> 0:33:53.720
<v Speaker 5>different projects and have different challenges day to day. I

0:33:53.800 --> 0:33:56.000
<v Speaker 5>love art, so I like going to new art galleries.

0:33:56.280 --> 0:33:58.760
<v Speaker 2>And you are ready to settle down and have one

0:33:58.800 --> 0:33:59.640
<v Speaker 2>person in your life?

0:33:59.720 --> 0:34:04.080
<v Speaker 3>Yes, I am all right. Well, thank you so so much, Leo.

0:34:04.200 --> 0:34:07.880
<v Speaker 3>You have a beautiful heart. Thank you, thank you, Thank

0:34:07.920 --> 0:34:08.520
<v Speaker 3>you to.

0:34:08.680 --> 0:34:13.040
<v Speaker 1>All of you for having these one on one that

0:34:13.239 --> 0:34:16.800
<v Speaker 1>you have all gone in and have shown your heart.

0:34:17.040 --> 0:34:19.319
<v Speaker 1>You honestly are all phenomenal.

0:34:19.480 --> 0:34:23.400
<v Speaker 2>But look, honesty, really, honesty, don't we have a secret.

0:34:23.760 --> 0:34:27.320
<v Speaker 1>Speaking of honestly, because y'all really we were super vulnerable.

0:34:27.560 --> 0:34:30.200
<v Speaker 1>We have kept a little something from y all, telenovela

0:34:30.239 --> 0:34:34.839
<v Speaker 1>twist this whole dime. Well, you have been boring your

0:34:34.960 --> 0:34:39.520
<v Speaker 1>hearts to a wili since we have had the main

0:34:39.840 --> 0:34:45.520
<v Speaker 1>data listening in this whole time. Alita might have an

0:34:45.520 --> 0:34:49.040
<v Speaker 1>idea of who she likes for our main dater. But

0:34:49.320 --> 0:34:51.719
<v Speaker 1>before we have the verdict, me and I willed to

0:34:51.760 --> 0:34:53.520
<v Speaker 1>have a little one on one, have a little chats

0:34:53.520 --> 0:34:55.839
<v Speaker 1>and processing, and then we'll bring him again to share

0:34:55.880 --> 0:34:56.440
<v Speaker 1>the verdict.

0:34:57.480 --> 0:34:59.240
<v Speaker 2>We'll be back after the break.

0:35:02.400 --> 0:35:05.320
<v Speaker 1>Welcome back today, am I wily the first?

0:35:06.719 --> 0:35:11.080
<v Speaker 2>Oh my goodness, gracious, Wolita. You know, I think that

0:35:11.160 --> 0:35:13.600
<v Speaker 2>we have learned a lot more about each of our contestants.

0:35:13.719 --> 0:35:17.360
<v Speaker 1>For sure. I think it's definitely a Leo James battle

0:35:17.520 --> 0:35:19.520
<v Speaker 1>at all. Really, I'm leaning Leo.

0:35:20.000 --> 0:35:23.360
<v Speaker 2>Leo has a beautiful, beautiful heart. But you have to

0:35:23.480 --> 0:35:25.799
<v Speaker 2>admit James opened up a lot.

0:35:25.920 --> 0:35:28.200
<v Speaker 1>James did open up a lot. I don't know, maybe, Fae,

0:35:28.200 --> 0:35:28.960
<v Speaker 1>what are your thoughts?

0:35:29.120 --> 0:35:29.960
<v Speaker 2>Talk to us?

0:35:30.280 --> 0:35:32.919
<v Speaker 4>Oh my god, this is under wrecking. But I think

0:35:33.040 --> 0:35:36.680
<v Speaker 4>Leo's final response like assumed me, like I've literally said

0:35:36.680 --> 0:35:40.520
<v Speaker 4>what they've said verbatim when talking about what I'm looking for,

0:35:40.680 --> 0:35:44.400
<v Speaker 4>Like you do you, I'm aa do me and we

0:35:44.440 --> 0:35:47.160
<v Speaker 4>can have fun and go on adventures, but like I

0:35:47.239 --> 0:35:48.840
<v Speaker 4>want to be supportive, I see you.

0:35:49.560 --> 0:35:52.680
<v Speaker 1>Also, I'm very curious about their background as an adult

0:35:52.920 --> 0:35:56.160
<v Speaker 1>content creator because I feel like there's so much exploration

0:35:56.440 --> 0:36:00.960
<v Speaker 1>and curiosity about physical pleasure, and they're so much knowledge

0:36:00.960 --> 0:36:03.120
<v Speaker 1>from what I'm understanding. I mean, I'm like, oh, yeah,

0:36:03.160 --> 0:36:05.040
<v Speaker 1>it seems like you definitely understand a lot of like

0:36:05.080 --> 0:36:08.040
<v Speaker 1>wordying and a lot of communication that helps in being

0:36:08.080 --> 0:36:11.360
<v Speaker 1>able to feel comfortable in your body and being able

0:36:11.400 --> 0:36:17.120
<v Speaker 1>to feel celebrated and seen by everybody else in that experience.

0:36:17.600 --> 0:36:19.879
<v Speaker 2>What did you think about James opening up?

0:36:20.320 --> 0:36:22.279
<v Speaker 4>I thought it was sweet. I think there was a

0:36:22.280 --> 0:36:25.560
<v Speaker 4>lot of words that were used before getting to the point,

0:36:25.560 --> 0:36:27.520
<v Speaker 4>which is fine. I know they were processing, but I

0:36:27.520 --> 0:36:31.839
<v Speaker 4>think that slow processing also emulated to me that they're

0:36:31.920 --> 0:36:34.239
<v Speaker 4>kind of on their way to being a little bit

0:36:34.280 --> 0:36:36.880
<v Speaker 4>more whole in themselves and still kind of finding that

0:36:36.960 --> 0:36:39.800
<v Speaker 4>groundedness within them. But yeah, I mean, great person.

0:36:39.880 --> 0:36:43.160
<v Speaker 2>It's a bit more cautious things about his responses, a

0:36:43.160 --> 0:36:45.920
<v Speaker 2>little bit more does not want to be wrong, and

0:36:45.960 --> 0:36:48.560
<v Speaker 2>sometimes there's nothing wrong with just saying it.

0:36:48.560 --> 0:36:50.640
<v Speaker 4>It reminds me a lot of where I'm coming from,

0:36:50.680 --> 0:36:53.440
<v Speaker 4>which I think is why I think Leo's so refreshing,

0:36:53.440 --> 0:36:55.399
<v Speaker 4>because they're just like, it is what it is.

0:36:55.440 --> 0:36:55.680
<v Speaker 2>You know.

0:36:56.960 --> 0:37:06.840
<v Speaker 1>Well, Fay, let's do this all right, Welcome back, Alita?

0:37:07.280 --> 0:37:13.040
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, okay, listen, you are amazing human beings, each

0:37:13.200 --> 0:37:15.799
<v Speaker 2>of you. At the end of the show, we do

0:37:15.880 --> 0:37:18.440
<v Speaker 2>have to think about our main dater and who is

0:37:18.640 --> 0:37:21.319
<v Speaker 2>just a little bit closer to what our main dater

0:37:21.680 --> 0:37:25.640
<v Speaker 2>hopes to have in a new partnership. For that reason alone,

0:37:26.160 --> 0:37:29.239
<v Speaker 2>the person dating our main data is.

0:37:32.320 --> 0:37:40.719
<v Speaker 1>Leo. Leo. Congratulations. With that said, James and sarn you

0:37:40.800 --> 0:37:44.160

0:39:05.640 --> 0:39:08.279
<v Speaker 5>I'm adventurous, so are you. So it was it was

0:39:08.320 --> 0:39:11.040

0:40:24.440 --> 0:40:28.560
<v Speaker 4>That's so cute. This is interesting. This is cool. It's

0:40:28.560 --> 0:40:31.399
<v Speaker 4>also super cool that you're doing like adult content. When

0:40:31.440 --> 0:40:34.279
<v Speaker 4>I heard about that, I was like, Oh, that's amazing.

0:40:34.320 --> 0:40:36.399
<v Speaker 4>How is that actually tell me a little bit more?

0:40:36.960 --> 0:40:40.319
<v Speaker 5>Okay, yes, so I spent most of my twenties doing

0:40:40.320 --> 0:40:43.760
<v Speaker 5>adult work. I was you name it, like a stripper.

0:40:43.960 --> 0:40:47.040
<v Speaker 5>I was a porn performer, but I was doing that

0:40:47.360 --> 0:40:52.279
<v Speaker 5>all as a femme presenting person. I realized halfway through

0:40:52.280 --> 0:40:55.279
<v Speaker 5>that I'm trans, but you know, because of the nature

0:40:55.280 --> 0:40:57.200
<v Speaker 5>of my job, I was like, I don't know how

0:40:57.280 --> 0:40:59.960
<v Speaker 5>often trans dudes get work here, so let me just

0:41:00.800 --> 0:41:04.840
<v Speaker 5>write out my fem drag performance until I'm ready to transition.

0:41:05.160 --> 0:41:08.560
<v Speaker 5>So I did that for four years, and I always

0:41:08.600 --> 0:41:11.200
<v Speaker 5>had an idea of coming back as my true gender.

0:41:11.680 --> 0:41:13.480
<v Speaker 5>So now I get to do that. You know, I

0:41:13.520 --> 0:41:16.080
<v Speaker 5>work on mostly queer production shoots.

0:41:16.120 --> 0:41:22.160
<v Speaker 4>It's super fun to you. I feel like I'm working

0:41:22.200 --> 0:41:26.000
<v Speaker 4>on that, like sexual liberation part I just recently started

0:41:26.040 --> 0:41:29.480
<v Speaker 4>my transition, and so I'm going through my second pubertyes

0:41:29.600 --> 0:41:32.840
<v Speaker 4>I'm feeling like, oh my god, like I'm you know,

0:41:32.880 --> 0:41:35.759
<v Speaker 4>I guess I am ace, but I'm like, there is

0:41:36.160 --> 0:41:38.919
<v Speaker 4>so much more to explore, right Like, there's so much

0:41:39.040 --> 0:41:42.000
<v Speaker 4>that my body is just kind of waking up to.

0:41:42.120 --> 0:41:45.279
<v Speaker 4>So it was really refreshing to hear like, you know

0:41:45.400 --> 0:41:48.239
