That was like where the indie pods started. 80 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: I feel because remember how hard it was back then 81 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,600 Speaker 1: to get on Apple podcast Like it was a little complicated. 82 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: Now I feel like it's so much easier. There's been 83 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 1: some development. There's also Spotify Podcasts. Of course iHeartRadio as 84 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: a podcast network as well, but we didn't know any 85 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 1: of that. Like we started on SoundCloud. 86 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 2: The game has changed, and specifically Apple podcasts somebody over 87 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 2: there was really out to get us because. 88 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: Don't bring the story back. 89 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 2: We don't want the curse that again. No, it's so 90 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 2: we've overcome. They can never they can't get us anymore 91 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 2: if they can't touch us. But back then, we had 92 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 2: trouble getting the feed up and the US I was 93 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:13,040 Speaker 2: like back and forth, like battling with this this representative 94 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:14,600 Speaker 2: over at Apple podcasts. 95 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 1: Well, no, what happened is that we got the feed 96 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: up and then they took it down from Apple podcast 97 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 1: and our tagline. It turned out it was our tagline 98 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:27,479 Speaker 1: Mommies of myth and Bullshit at the time, because you 99 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 1: look at the shows now and it's like, there's no 100 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,719 Speaker 1: way that we would get taken down now. Now, I 101 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: don't think who knows. Maybe there was a personal vendetta 102 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: grudge against us, But at the time we were flagged 103 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 1: because of the mommies and myth and bullshit in our tagline. 104 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:45,479 Speaker 1: It was in our bio, it was in our episode descriptions. 105 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 1: Because we were starting to brand ourselves and brand the show, 106 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 1: and we had all these different taglines, and so I 107 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 1: remember pulling up examples from non Latino shows that had 108 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 1: like quote bad words or curse words, and I sent 109 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 1: them as an ample and was like, well, why is 110 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 1: this okay? And this one's not? What's the deal? What's 111 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: the subtext here? Because I don't get it. 112 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 2: I seem to recall, we were like, there's a show 113 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:14,160 Speaker 2: called Come Town, Yes, so what's the problem, So. 114 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: Like, bullshit can't be in a description. It made no 115 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 1: sense at the time. It still makes no sense to me, 116 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: but we were able to get the show back up, 117 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 1: but it was a brand new feed, so any like 118 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: podcast reviews, any ratings we had like those all got 119 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 1: lost And thankfully it was like kind of early definitely 120 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,600 Speaker 1: still season one. It was not that late in the game, 121 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: I don't think, but that was something that we dealt 122 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: with early on. 123 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I also remember very specifically that this person 124 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 2: at Apple Podcasts was like, oh, and the description shouldn't 125 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 2: be anything that's okay for a small child to read. 126 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 2: And you were like, why would a small child be 127 00:06:55,560 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 2: listening to a podcast? Like whose standard is that? Yeah, yeah, 128 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 2: there was somebody over there and you know who you 129 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:13,119 Speaker 2: are if you're listening. Still hate listening to this day. 130 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, those were the times, the indie times, so 131 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: much growth, so much learning, don't go anywhere. 132 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 2: Look on moves.

Amazing. 138 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 1: Well, that is also one of the reasons we invited 139 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: you on today. We had you earlier on this season 140 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: and that was such a great episode. And when we 141 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: were thinking about wrapping this season, we started seeing the 142 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 1: numbers everywhere and we thought, let's do something different and 143 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 1: actually talk about the numbers of lok Atota Radio. It's 144 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: our ninth season that we're rapping, and when we were 145 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: looking at our launch date, we actually launched on November thirteenth, 146 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: so obviously there's another number for you. And we're rapping 147 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 1: with our two to two episode, and so we just 148 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: want to talk all things numbers. And we also realized 149 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:37,839 Speaker 1: or were reminded that lok Atota is also a scorpio, 150 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: So just feel like there's a lot to work with here. 151 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 5: I was just about to say, of course, y'all would 152 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 5: birth a scorpio baby, right, sexy, daring, controversial, but equally inspiring. Java, 153 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 5: do we too like anything less? And then thirteen, which 154 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 5: is the divine feminine number. 155 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 4: And right when we. 156 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 5: Look when I think of Malamosa, I think of, you know, 157 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 5: embodying femininity in such a very dark feminine way. 158 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 4: You know, I want to say dark feminine. 159 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 5: It's just very unconventional, like being really true to like 160 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 5: what makes us edgy.

Yes, that was and I 170 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 2: think that is that can be the podcast. You know, 171 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 2: we've interviewed some controversial figures in our community on the show. 172 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,960 Speaker 2: We've talked about difficult topics, and we've also had fun 173 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 2: with it. And so today we want to we want 174 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,439 Speaker 2: to keep having fun with it and talk about the numerology. 175 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 2: I mean, I love the fact that we have an 176 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,199 Speaker 2: angel number as this episode number two two two. What 177 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 2: does it mean? 178 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 5: And tell me how this spsonates as you reflect back 179 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 5: up to date on the how you curated this season. 180 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 4: So angew number two two two. 181 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 5: Y'all works with obviously twos, but it adds up to 182 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,199 Speaker 5: two four sixs. You're working with essentially two numbers, the 183 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,319 Speaker 5: number two and the number six. Twos are the energy 184 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:27,199 Speaker 5: of intuition. It's two and six actually both here we 185 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 5: go again feminine numbers. So in enumalogy we have masculine 186 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 5: feminine numbers because masculine and feminine is an element. It's 187 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:36,840 Speaker 5: not it's not necessarily a gender norm. It's just a 188 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 5: classification of element. So two two two is about working 189 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 5: with your intuition the high priestess energy. And when we 190 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 5: think of the hyph priestess, it's someone who is deeply 191 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,960 Speaker 5: tap into again the depth of her darkness and who 192 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 5: knows the significance of the depth of her darkness and 193 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,839 Speaker 5: how to wield it to her power right, how to 194 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 5: create and manifest from a place of anger, but sitting 195 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 5: within to allow on anger to create good and productivity 196 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:07,199 Speaker 5: and in inspiration. So two to two is an energy 197 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 5: of collaboration and partnerships. Would you say that this season, 198 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:15,199 Speaker 5: up to date, you've collaborated more than from the very beginning. 199 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 5: Do you have more partnerships up to date to this point, 200 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 5: have you noticed more of a feminine intuitive approach to 201 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:23,439 Speaker 5: your content creation as well? 202 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,079 Speaker 1: I would say yes. I would say this was our 203 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 1: most collaborative season because we brought in Stephanie as our producer. 204 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: Stephanie was originally or the last two seasons or audio editor, 205 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 1: and so to have that collaborative person, a third person 206 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 1: there we go with the number three come in and 207 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 1: give us, you know, creative ideas and feedback and really 208 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 1: be able to push us along on the days that 209 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 1: we needed it, the weeks that we needed it where 210 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:52,560 Speaker 1: it's like we really want to get this done, but 211 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,199 Speaker 1: we don't have capacity to outreach to this person. Can 212 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 1: you handle it? And she would handle it. 213 00:11:58,840 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 4: Three is the. 214 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 5: Energy of an estheticism, just really quickly. It's the energy 215 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:07,199 Speaker 5: of the trinity, It's the triangle, and it's. 216 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 4: The most powerful occult symbol. That's how you see you know, 217 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 4: jay Z and folks doing Rockafella. 218 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 5: Because it's the most powerful symbol of manifestation. 219 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 4: It's it's the trinity, and. 220 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 5: It's also the energy of the Empress, the divine Empress. 221 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 5: So we'll get you bringing in that third party and 222 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 5: the three of you, right, creating these temppoles, right of 223 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 5: energy centers, right to bring forces together and to create 224 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 5: something really beautiful and profound within the three of you. 225 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, And I think there's just so many in 226 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 2: art and in life, like the number three. It's such 227 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 2: like a strong structure, right, like triptys and a triad 228 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 2: and et cetera, et cetera. Like you said, the triangle, 229 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 2: there's just something about that structure that is just steady 230 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 2: mm hmm. 231 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 4: Absolutely, yeah. 232 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: And I think in terms of of guests, you know, 233 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 1: I think there was like a lot of intention this 234 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: year with the types of guests that we had who 235 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 1: we wanted to have on.

And when I look at 379 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,639 Speaker 5: because I've been following y'all for damn near I think 380 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 5: maybe four or five years at this point, and when I. 381 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 4: Look at y'all. 382 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 5: Today to see Mala really just embrace your self expression 383 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 5: and going into your comedic you know, talents, your comedic genius, 384 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 5: and then Dyosa really seeing you reclaim and embrace your 385 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:46,919 Speaker 5: ancestral lineage. Right, And how like spirituality again is just 386 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:49,919 Speaker 5: how we self express that really empowers us to be 387 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 5: our authentic self. So that's how I see y'all progressing 388 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:55,679 Speaker 5: into like this nine spiritual energy. 389 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 4: What do you think about that? 390 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 1: I think that that tracks. Yeah, definitely, that feels, that resonates, 391 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:04,880 Speaker 1: that feels right, It totally tracks. 392 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 2: And I last year, THEOSA literally took me to Peru 393 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:12,360 Speaker 2: with her and we climbed Machu Pichu for her birthday, 394 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 2: you know, case in point.

So the podcast 398 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 2: has also allowed us to usher in that like new 399 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 2: era for ourselves individually. And it also I think cycles 400 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 2: back to the podcast, but developing those skill sets and 401 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 2: the show has made it possible. 402 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 4: And nine actually talk about higher education. 403 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 5: Nine is the energy of the ninth House, which is 404 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,720 Speaker 5: learning something new.

There have been others. 479 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 2: I think about Jackie Jackie Hernandez, who is a listener 480 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:57,159 Speaker 2: who comes over the years, has come to basically all 481 00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,399 Speaker 2: of our all of our events, I think after she 482 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 2: first started listening, and she now has been hosting some 483 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 2: really cool like puff and politics, like cannabis themed talks, 484 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,639 Speaker 2: which has been really amazing to see from her. And 485 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 2: there are others. I mean, Stephanie, I think you were 486 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 2: a listener before you started working with us, which has 487 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 2: been excellent, and now you're on the team and you're 488 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:23,919 Speaker 2: an integral part of the show. Yeah. 489 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:27,880 Speaker 1: Yeah. And there's also the listeners that we have never 490 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 1: had the pleasure of meeting in person, but that engage 491 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,479 Speaker 1: with us, that comment, that message us and let us 492 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 1: know that an episode resonated with them, that email us 493 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,119 Speaker 1: and just let us know that you're listening. And so 494 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:43,400 Speaker 1: those like, we love them. We love receiving that type 495 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 1: of feedback. We love knowing that you're still listening, even 496 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,679 Speaker 1: all these years later. I think it was this past 497 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:52,119 Speaker 1: year or this maybe last season when there was that 498 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,160 Speaker 1: young woman that was graduating from UC Berkeley and said 499 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:57,000 Speaker 1: she had been listening to look, I thought our radio 500 00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:59,400 Speaker 1: since she was in the eighth grade. I can't even 501 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,119 Speaker 1: and I did the math, and yeah, she was gonna 502 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 1: graduate from college. And yes, it makes sense actually, because 503 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 1: there's eight seasons at the time, I think it was 504 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:13,639 Speaker 1: eight seasons and so we have raised the children, literally 505 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 1: we have and so I think those those are the 506 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 1: moments I think that I also really love and that 507 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 1: I never imagined the places the podcast would go. When 508 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 1: we started in twenty sixteen, it was an outlet for us, 509 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:34,639 Speaker 1: a creative outlet, and I think just a way to 510 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 1: get things off our chest, literally because we were working 511 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,919 Speaker 1: incredibly tough jobs. We were both at nonprofits, We were 512 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,720 Speaker 1: seeing a lot of injustices. We were right at the 513 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 1: helm of like the me Too movement of the Trump election, 514 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 1: and so there were a lot of things we wanted 515 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 1: to say and our community wanted to say. And so 516 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 1: it started as a hobby, right, It started as let's 517 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:01,520 Speaker 1: just do this podcast once a month and really realizing 518 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: what we were doing and what we were putting out there. 519 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:06,239 Speaker 1: But I think our openness to growth has allowed us 520 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:09,960 Speaker 1: to get here that we have been willing to change, 521 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:15,479 Speaker 1: to adapt, to grow, and to work really fucking hard. Also, 522 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,639 Speaker 1: you know, the show is amazing, but it has not 523 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:25,680 Speaker 1: gone without its sleepless nights, mental breakdowns, cries, tears, sobs. 524 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 2: And it's a business, you know, it's literally a business. 525 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 2: A small business, but a business nonetheless, And so of 526 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:34,440 Speaker 2: course there's also there's always the financial stuff that we're 527 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 2: sort of constantly, you know, figuring out and working with 528 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:44,479 Speaker 2: and trying to grow with the show. Oh yeah, and 529 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 2: make the show grow. So, like you said, it started 530 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 2: as a hobby and now we are co owners of 531 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 2: this production company and we have two weekly shows at 532 00:28:54,280 --> 00:29:00,040 Speaker 2: iHeart under the Michaudra podcast network, which is incredible. And 533 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 2: no mean feed. 534 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 1: I was about to say, you took the words right 535 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 1: out of my mouth. 536 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 2: No small feet, no, no small feed. I mean it's 537 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 2: not every day. And that's the dream, like in LA 538 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 2: in the industry, to have shows thought up and dreamed 539 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 2: up and then they get greenlit and then they get 540 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 2: funded and then they actually get put out. 541 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:23,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, with like creative freedom. Might I add, like, look 542 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,960 Speaker 1: at Tora. That was baked in our contract like it 543 00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:28,719 Speaker 1: was our baby, and so we were going to have 544 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 1: creative direction and creative freedom. We were going to have 545 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 1: creative direction and creative freedom no matter what. But to 546 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 1: also still have some creative freedom with Senora sex said, 547 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 1: it is also really exciting and really gratifying because it 548 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 1: is a sex show, a sex ed show, and you 549 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 1: know that is not everyone's cup of tea. But I 550 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: think the network saw the need and the gap and 551 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 1: we filled it. 552 00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 2: Yeah. And like our listeners have pointed out, Senora Sex said, 553 00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 2: nobody else is doing it. Nobody else is doing it. 554 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 2: I mean these talks between latinas about your first period 555 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 2: and masturbation and cysts and your first time and all 556 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,680 Speaker 2: kinds of things. I mean, it's really truly innovative. If 557 00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 2: I do say so. 558 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 1: Myself, Milea's just tooting her own horn, our horn. 559 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 2: I'm cheating. I'm cheating all of our horns. 560 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think you know what I love about 561 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 1: that show not to venture off into Senora Sex said 562 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 1: too much, But what I love about the show is 563 00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 1: that who is asking I've been thinking about this. Who 564 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 1: is asking the senora as, the women in their sixties 565 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 1: and their seventies what their sex life is like? 566 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:34,959 Speaker 2: No one. 567 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 1: I don't think many people do because I don't think 568 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 1: it's considered sexy. I don't think it's considered like important, 569 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 1: and I don't think it's I was speaking to Lillian Rivera, 570 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 1: an author, a couple a couple of weeks ago, and 571 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 1: she said, we're like invisible once we turned fifty, and 572 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 1: I think, yeah, that's why the show I think is 573 00:30:56,280 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 1: so great and can be so relatable for women in 574 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 1: their fifties plus, women's in their forties plus, because nobody's 575 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 1: asking them those things anymore. Everyone wants to know, like 576 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:09,360 Speaker 1: what's sexy to you when you're in your twenties and thirties, right, 577 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 1: but once you hit a certain age, like nobody cares anymore. 578 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 1: But there's still so many stories to share, and these 579 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 1: women have so much lived experience, and like they want 580 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 1: to tell their story. 581 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I feel like they've by then, they've probably 582 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,440 Speaker 2: had a lot of sex. Yes, it takes time to 583 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 2: rack it all up. And so those are the ladies 584 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:28,720 Speaker 2: that I want to talk to. 585 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 1: Literally, they've they've. 586 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 2: Done their reps.

You want health insurance, you 642 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:58,960 Speaker 1: want school tuition. Like, there's so much that goes into 643 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:03,040 Speaker 1: the daily business practice that I never saw my I 644 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 1: never saw that for myself. I never saw that for myself. 645 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:10,560 Speaker 1: It's a part of the growing pain, so I embrace it. 646 00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:15,359 Speaker 1: It's a challenge. Sorry, it's a challenge. But I would 647 00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 1: say those are the parts where I'm like, Okay, what 648 00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,239 Speaker 1: if I had a regular job, Yeah, totally, you know, 649 00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:26,360 Speaker 1: what if I had a steady paycheck? You know, But 650 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:29,920 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any going back now, I really don't. 651 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:31,879 Speaker 1: I have those moments where I'm like, I don't want 652 00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,560 Speaker 1: to go back to working for anyone else anymore. Like 653 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:39,839 Speaker 1: I don't think I physically, emotionally, mentally can There's the 654 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:44,320 Speaker 1: beauty in designing your own schedule, designing your own life, 655 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:46,680 Speaker 1: and there's also chaos that comes with it. And I 656 00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 1: think it's for me, it's been about embracing the season 657 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:53,239 Speaker 1: of chaos and then embracing the season of ease. And 658 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 1: just not trying to force one or the other and 659 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 1: just letting it be what it needs to be and 660 00:35:58,280 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 1: knowing that we're going to make it. On the other side, 661 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:03,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna be okay. And whenever things are tough, I 662 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:06,839 Speaker 1: tell Mala, like, we've made it through worse, We've made 663 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:10,680 Speaker 1: it through really tough things. We're gonna get We've done 664 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 1: more with a lot less, is what I remind myself 665 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:16,480 Speaker 1: when things are really hard. 666 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:19,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a little of the that like grass is 667 00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:24,319 Speaker 2: greener on the other side stuff. And you know, we 668 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:25,640 Speaker 2: had jobs. 669 00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:28,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, remember when I was dying to quit my jobs? Yes, 670 00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:30,920 Speaker 1: And now I'm over here romanticizing, like what if I 671 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:33,799 Speaker 1: just clocked in and clocked out? Cause I think like 672 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 1: that's the part that no one tells you about running 673 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:39,359 Speaker 1: your own business, especially when it's a creative business. You're 674 00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:44,400 Speaker 1: never off. You're never off. You can technically take time off, 675 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:46,960 Speaker 1: but no one's clocking in for you. No one's covering 676 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 1: your shift because like, you still have work to do 677 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 1: and the work will be there when you get back. Yeah, 678 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,359 Speaker 1: And so I think it's also about perspective, like, Okay, 679 00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:54,880 Speaker 1: if the work is always going to be there, well, 680 00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 1: then I can take a day off. You know, am 681 00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:58,759 Speaker 1: I going to Is taking today off going to make 682 00:36:58,760 --> 00:36:59,640 Speaker 1: me miss my deadline? 683 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:00,000 Speaker 2: Yeah? 684 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,719 Speaker 1: Okay, can't take it off. Is it going to be okay? Yes, okay, 685 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:04,439 Speaker 1: I can take it off. 686 00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:09,120 Speaker 2: Yeah. And it's also I think pushing ourselves to do 687 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:14,759 Speaker 2: our professional development on our own, with our own like 688 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:19,600 Speaker 2: motivating ourselves to develop professionally. It's not like a requirement 689 00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:23,600 Speaker 2: of a job and a boss somewhere else that's sending 690 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 2: us on a retreat or sending us to get certified, 691 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:29,000 Speaker 2: or sending us to take a class. We've decided that 692 00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:32,319 Speaker 2: in order to strengthen the business and the show and 693 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:35,840 Speaker 2: to grow it and expand it, that we in fact 694 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 2: need to go back and get the training and go 695 00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 2: to school. And I think when we signed with the Pot, 696 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:47,040 Speaker 2: with Michael Dura and with iHeart, that was like, oh, 697 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:52,360 Speaker 2: this is a relief, you know. That was like a 698 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:56,879 Speaker 2: level up, a step up. That was financial security through 699 00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:00,880 Speaker 2: the show that we didn't have before. And now several 700 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:04,040 Speaker 2: seasons in, as the show continues to grow and we 701 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:08,200 Speaker 2: continue to grow, now it's time for like, okay, another 702 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:11,759 Speaker 2: level up, yes, you know. And it's that constant leveling up, 703 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,239 Speaker 2: and so I feel like at the time, it was 704 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:19,719 Speaker 2: the middle of the pandemic. Times were absolutely nuts. We 705 00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:23,320 Speaker 2: decided to start this business, And so I think about 706 00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 2: the turbulence of that time period, not just for us 707 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 2: as individuals and as a show, but in the world, 708 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 2: and how we came out of it with this multi 709 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:34,080 Speaker 2: year network contract. But it was it was born out 710 00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:38,080 Speaker 2: of a lot of turbulence, absolutely, and so we're in 711 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:41,080 Speaker 2: a much less turbulent place. Oh, but I think we're 712 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:44,640 Speaker 2: starting to feel like the feathers are, you know, ruffling 713 00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 2: a little bit. And I think that's also a sign 714 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:50,719 Speaker 2: that like there's some other level up that's upon us. Yeah, 715 00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:53,000 Speaker 2: because we need it, because it's that time. Now you're 716 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:54,480 Speaker 2: like growing out of our clothes. 717 00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yeah, yeah, you're constantly evolving, changing as an 718 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:03,960 Speaker 1: artist does a person, and that comes with the leveling 719 00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:07,440 Speaker 1: up and the growing pains, I think. And here's to 720 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:09,600 Speaker 1: another multi year. 721 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:15,399 Speaker 2: Deal, another nine seasons. Baby, let's go, let's do it. Yes. 722 00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:18,400 Speaker 1: I want to be like Latino USA, season after season, 723 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:20,400 Speaker 1: year after year. Let's do it. 724 00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:26,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, like truly an archive, truly documenting our lives and 725 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:29,400 Speaker 2: the lives of people around us. And this great city 726 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:32,800 Speaker 2: that we call home. I can't think of better people 727 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:36,640 Speaker 2: to do it. Honestly, the world needs us. So thank 728 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:39,000 Speaker 2: you all for listening and for making it possible because 729 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 2: we owe it to the listeners. 730 00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 1: We do owe it to the listeners. And I think 731 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:44,879 Speaker 1: before we wrap, let's just talk about, like what are 732 00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 1: we manifesting for season ten? 733 00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:49,799 Speaker 2: Oh? Yes, yes, yes, yes, what's on the top of 734 00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:50,400 Speaker 2: your list? 735 00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:55,880 Speaker 1: I want more live shows and in person activations. I 736 00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:59,440 Speaker 1: don't know what exactly that is, but we you know, 737 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:03,239 Speaker 1: prepen demic, we were out and about doing events all 738 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:06,440 Speaker 1: the time. And I think, like me personally, like I 739 00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:08,560 Speaker 1: don't really know how to like pick it up again 740 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 1: because we can't. The world has changed, We've changed, listeners 741 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:15,759 Speaker 1: have changed, but more so like what can how can 742 00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:22,360 Speaker 1: we enter re enter physical space, meetups events in a 743 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:25,120 Speaker 1: way that feels right for us and our community and 744 00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:25,720 Speaker 1: our listeners. 745 00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:28,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, live shows. We used to do live shows all 746 00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:30,960 Speaker 2: the time, and at least one every year. Look at 747 00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:32,360 Speaker 2: live a podcast party. 748 00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:34,120 Speaker 1: We used to do live shows with zero money. I 749 00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 1: don't know how we were doing them. 750 00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:38,320 Speaker 2: I have out of our own pockets, out. 751 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,680 Speaker 1: Of our own pocket, like we were just like putting 752 00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:46,520 Speaker 1: on these fantastic live shows in iconic at iconic venues. Yeah, 753 00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:51,360 Speaker 1: all over lay with zero budget, and now we're just 754 00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:52,920 Speaker 1: like we're tired. 755 00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:57,960 Speaker 2: We're tired, we're burnt out, We're tired. It's yeah. I 756 00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:01,120 Speaker 2: think also, you know, the life Life events space and 757 00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:04,120 Speaker 2: the party space we were in it, but that's its 758 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:08,000 Speaker 2: own world and it really is very exhausting. It is. 759 00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:12,160 Speaker 2: It's late nights and it's a lot of prep and 760 00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:15,839 Speaker 2: promo and yeah, the money stuff, and so I think 761 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:18,160 Speaker 2: it was very fun and I think that we can 762 00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:21,920 Speaker 2: be strategic about our live shows and stuff in the future. 763 00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:26,360 Speaker 2: I think we've started to really invest in the behind 764 00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:28,320 Speaker 2: the scenes we have work. 765 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:31,280 Speaker 1: That's why the audio quality is so much better, y'all. Yeah, 766 00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:34,720 Speaker 1: I mean everything is better. I think the podcast itself 767 00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:38,520 Speaker 1: is better. And we were doing all kinds of different 768 00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:40,960 Speaker 1: things and not to be like the podcast sucked, of 769 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,279 Speaker 1: course not, but it's like, I don't know, when there's 770 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,160 Speaker 1: more intention on something, it's obviously better when you're like 771 00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:47,719 Speaker 1: kind of spread out, you're spread out. 772 00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:52,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, we were spread all over the city. We were 773 00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:54,760 Speaker 2: spread all over the place, and that was it was fun. 774 00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:57,520 Speaker 2: It was great. I think another thing that we want 775 00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 2: to manifest for season ten are more podcasting one oh 776 00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:05,280 Speaker 2: one workshops.
