Speaker 1: is the sense of smell. To figure out the pop
Speaker 1: culture references in Gilmore Girls. Where do they come from,
Speaker 1: who are they, where are they going? Who are the
Speaker 1: people that make them pop culture references? Who are the
Speaker 1: icons that brings to life. We're going to talk to
Speaker 1: them all, and that is what we're here to do
Speaker 1: this week. Oh my god, you guys, this week we're
Speaker 1: talking to a legend. I always say that every week
Speaker 1: I meet at this time a true legend. But before
Speaker 1: I tell you who we're talking to, I got to
Speaker 1: bring you back to the world of Gilmer Girls. We're
Speaker 1: going to start as hollow for a moment. We're going
Speaker 1: to season one episode ten. If you're sitting at home
Speaker 1: listening to this, you got your finger on your Apple TV,
Speaker 1: your Roku remote, you're pulling up Netflix to watch along.
Speaker 1: Go to season one episode ten. Hey, if we're getting
Speaker 1: specific here, fast forward to like thirty three minutes. Richard's
Speaker 1: in the hospital and Lorelei and Rory are in the
Speaker 1: waiting room trying to get snacks out of the vending machine.
Speaker 1: And in this moment, Lourlai, You'll remember from the last
Speaker 1: episode that Rory and Dean fell asleep together at Miss
Speaker 1: Patti's and in this episode, Dean tries to get Rory's
Speaker 1: attention by tapping on the window and Lourai catches him.
Speaker 1: They have a conversation, and now we're in this moment.
Speaker 1: In season one, episode ten, Rory and Loralai are talking
Speaker 1: in this waiting room and Laurai tells Rory that Dean
Speaker 1: pulled the old tap in on the window a bit,
Speaker 1: and Rory says, you know, nothing happened, and Lourlai believes her.
Speaker 1: Laura trusts her, and she says this quote Rory, there
Speaker 1: are only two things that I totally trust in this
Speaker 1: entire world. The fact that I will never be able
Speaker 1: to understand what Charro is saying no matter how long
Speaker 1: she lives in this country. And you what a tender
Speaker 1: moment between mother and daughter. But also who is Charro?
Speaker 1: What is that? Who is Charo? Charo is an actress,
Speaker 1: a comedian, one of the best Flamenco guitarists to ever live,
Speaker 1: a pop culture icon for decades now. I remember when
Speaker 1: I was growing up, Charro was just everywhere. Everyone was
Speaker 1: making Charro jokes. Charro was on my TV My favorite
Speaker 1: memories of Charro. She voiced a character that looked exactly
Speaker 1: like her in the movie Thumbolina. She played Missus Toad.
Speaker 1: And if you are a nineties animation fan, you know
Speaker 1: thumb Berlina and Charro is in it, and again it's
Speaker 1: a frog that looks just like Charro. Charro was also
Speaker 1: in the Pee Wee's Playhoffs Christmas Special, which is very
Speaker 1: near and dear to my heart. I love Charo. If
Speaker 1: you if you aren't familiar with her work, she is.
Speaker 1: She's known as the kuci Cuchi girl. Cuci Cucci was
Speaker 1: her catchphrase. She would say it all the time. It
Speaker 1: doesn't really mean anything. Is this kind of a collection
Speaker 1: of sounds, but it is a phrase that took the
Speaker 1: nation in the world by storm. She is truly living
Speaker 1: the American dream. Charro is an icon, a legend. We
Speaker 1: are going to talk to Charro. We are going to
Speaker 1: find out if you can understand what she's saying, because
Speaker 1: Laura I can't. Uh and uh, hopefully you can because
Speaker 1: we're gonna hang out there for a while here. But
Speaker 1: it is I smell pop culture. Charo is here, Cucci, Cucci.

Speaker 4: would you find out that you were the pioneer that
Speaker 4: did everything that is changed, the music, the fashion, the
Speaker 4: only one name the Gucci Gucci think okay And I
Speaker 4: said okay, what and they said no. The generation see
Speaker 4: I call a generational zipper. They're supposed to know because
Speaker 4: they discovered midia instrum. Thank god to the Internet, social media,
Speaker 4: every single way that the past don't disappear.
Speaker 3: They discovered with you, with.
Speaker 4: Your job with the journalist, everything that before they was born,
Speaker 4: they were somebody who was and who this person did it?
Speaker 4: And why this person did it? It was many persons, okay,
Speaker 4: but I was actually they told me the pioneer the vote.
Speaker 3: It was me. Well, I'm going to tell you.
Speaker 4: Why I came to America with my sister when my
Speaker 4: Puciuchi was only a I was looking for really a dream,
Speaker 4: to find a new world, to start a because America
Speaker 4: was so big for you, for Spain, especially when I
Speaker 4: was bord in the south of Spain, a sil Murcia.
Speaker 4: That we used to love the movie that they show it,
Speaker 4: although when they showed the movie was already maybe twenty
Speaker 4: or three year old, but we love it. I remember
Speaker 4: Doria Cena. Yes, we came full of passion and live America.
Speaker 4: And one thing that I want to share with the
Speaker 4: generation see is you got to believe yourself. You got
Speaker 4: to trust what you think that is good. It's so
Speaker 4: this is very important. I know great artor that's supposed
Speaker 4: to make it and they never make it because they
Speaker 4: intimidated when they went to AU this show and you
Speaker 4: were very embarrassed in my time that you go and
Speaker 4: there is three people said down, look like you know
Speaker 4: what that bridge had to tell us. So so intimidated,
Speaker 4: wouldn't be a great opportunity for so many talented people
Speaker 4: and never happened. Well, the same thing my sister and me,
Speaker 4: we gain not afraid, not afraid.
Speaker 3: I always said, well.
Speaker 4: If I don't make an America, I can come back
Speaker 4: sell tomato in Tijuana.
Speaker 3: It was not afraid, trust me, and it was.
Speaker 4: Found but steady into what I believe and what you
Speaker 4: are going to thank you for helping me. What you
Speaker 4: are doing is thank you again. There is now unaware
Speaker 4: waking up of what happened. That the Blue Gee, the Alpha,
Speaker 4: the music this new generation discovered and when they discovered
Speaker 4: that it was me. Of course it's going to be
Speaker 4: an event in a beautiful play tiny when you showed
Speaker 4: your two a big three or thousand, at least three
Speaker 4: thousand venue, this tiny place.

Speaker 4: to time, my timing, my entry.
Speaker 3: He said.
Speaker 4: Everybody says that it's so intimate Catalina jack Club, and
Speaker 4: it will be an explanation with a gray review interviewer.

Speaker 4: about that, without even noted. I start with one name,
Speaker 4: and everybody have a name. Well, I started, show me
Speaker 4: the way to the bank. But anyway it was I start, yes,
