32
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:39,759
Speaker 1: I got a millennial if she's twenty one years old,

33
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 1: and so I got to hear this story out loud

34
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: and Cleo TV's new lifestyle series Living by Design with

Speaker 1: welcome back to money making conversations. Jake and Jazz energized

38
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 1: this time Jake. You know what I'm saying last time time, Sean,

39
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 1: this is early on the West coast, this Los Angeles,

40
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 1: this early, it's early. Well you're the first of all.

41
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 1: I'm big fans and uh and when I heard about this,

42
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,079
Speaker 1: h this millennial show, I like, I said, I got

43
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 1: a twenty one year old okay, and she got she

44
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 1: got ideas. She doesn't have a she doesn't have a

45
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: TV show, even want the TV. And she looks at

46
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: everything on her phone and uh, you know, she she

47
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 1: has her own sense of what she wants to be.

48
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: She lives on campus now and then she's back home

49
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,639
Speaker 1: for the summer because she's taking summer classes. So when

50
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,920
Speaker 1: you say the word millennial, what age group are you

51
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: looking at in that range you're focusing on your show?

52
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: I have believe millennial. Now, like some of the younger

53
00:02:56,080 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 1: kids are technically Gen V or something. Um, you might

54
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 1: have a gen weird. I don't know, you know how

55
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:08,080
Speaker 1: they start drawing the line. But I think like a

56
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 1: lot of the people that you're working with are like

57
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 1: mid twenties and their thirties. I think like there, yeah,

58
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 1: and they have like their apartments and they're you know,

59
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: or they have a young family, or they're expecting a family,

60
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 1: or they're single and just started their career, just took

61
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: a shift in their careers or things like that. Yeah,

62
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 1: that's about right, because you know it goes from eighteen

63
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 1: to thirty four. That's that that age range. Yeah, you're

64
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: hit you're hitting that out of college. They got bills

65
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 1: coming their way, they got trouble coming their way, right, right,

66
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 1: So so this idea okay because each one you have

67
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 1: special skills and your brother and sisters. So we all

68
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 1: know I have six sisters and have two brothers, so

69
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: you know, we don't always agree. I think that's a

70
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 1: great dynamic to have in the show. Tell me how

71
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 1: the role plays out for you too. On this show,

72
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: we found a good way to split up the work

73
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 1: so we do have our individual skills and to not

74
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: overlap too much. But um, when it comes down to it,

75
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 1: I'm the box and so that's how it works out

76
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 1: really well. I am the older one, so you know,

77
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 1: just kidding. But the way that we do it is

78
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 1: that we do a reveal meal at the end. Jake

79
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 1: does a I do a design and a dessert. For

80
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: my focus is the overall design of the space and

81
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,919
Speaker 1: making a dessert for the reveal party. And Jake's focus

82
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,159
Speaker 1: is a build and a meal, so he makes the

83
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 1: main course and he also builds a custom peace for

84
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:51,280
Speaker 1: um for eating fix that we're doing, or he refurbishes

85
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 1: a piece. Okay, cool, now dessert, you hit my you

86
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 1: hit my home run list right there. Now, is any

87
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 1: desserts from your book the Family Table? Or these are

88
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,280
Speaker 1: just desserts a the outside of that book, there was

89
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,480
Speaker 1: People by the Way, I recommend that's my favorite book.

90
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,839
Speaker 1: That's how I met this this family here was through

91
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 1: the book. Now you talk about desserts. I was asking you,

92
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,919
Speaker 1: is any or any of these desserts in the Family

93
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 1: Table book? Some of them are, and then some of

94
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 1: them are new ones I've developed or ones I've had

95
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 1: from before. Um, I love making desserts. So there's a

96
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: lot of different stuff there. We have sixteen different episodes,

97
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 1: so a few of the episodes have desserts from the

98
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 1: Family Table. I think the one that just aired, the

99
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 1: one that just aired, yes, that's in the Family Table.

100
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 1: It was a chocolate uh, flowerless chocolate cake. Have tried that? Yes?

101
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: Oh yes, yes, A real chocoholic. My wife loves chocolate.

102
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 1: She loves chocolate. I don't like chocolate people, but she

103
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:52,479
Speaker 1: loves chocolate. Make her that cake, just for no reason,

104
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 1: make her that cake because see this, just see this past.

105
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:57,280
Speaker 1: You know, when he was on the show last I

106
00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 1: will talk about I bade that which I love the

107
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 1: lost role. You know, I grew a lobster row. My

00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 1: favorite sandwiches. They're awesome. Now my wife, she came up

109
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: two weeks ago. A week ago, she came in right

110
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,359
Speaker 1: before we went on our cruise. She said, what do

111
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,279
Speaker 1: you want? I said, well, can you make me some gumbo?

112
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,720
Speaker 1: She said on hiversary and say, hey, hey, hey, the

113
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:22,039
Speaker 1: family table. Want to go around the corner to the

114
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,840
Speaker 1: family Tad was sitting on the counter. So she going there,

115
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 1: you know, and so I so you know, I'm I'm country.

118
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,279
Speaker 1: And so she made me a gumbo. So so I

119
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 1: had my corn bread, I had my white rise, and

120
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 1: I was taking my gumbo to work on two days

121
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,160
Speaker 1: in a row. Took my gumbould work. Then then my

122
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,719
Speaker 1: wife from the look, I just sent my free schoolers

123
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 1: to school with chi I'm saying what I'm saying that,

124
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 1: but this is my wife will freeze everything. She free everything,

125
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 1: freeze everything. Okay, so of course she went, I told

126
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 1: my daughter, please don't make sure when I died, my

127
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 1: my wife freeze me. Don't freeze me. Don't freeze me.

128
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 1: And so, uh, that's a commitment that's in my will.

129
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 1: Do not freeze me, because she freezes everything. And so

130
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: I come back. I come back from the cruise in Alaska.

131
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 1: You freeze everything. And so I come back from the

132
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: cruise in Alaska. And so I said, I'm hungry. She said,

133
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 1: I got some gumbo, said I frozen. Bro I was

134
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,320

Speaker 1: doesn't she doesn't desert. Yeah, and so she gum pasta.

149
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,600

Speaker 1: in my background. So so I know how to throw down.

158
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,200
Speaker 1: So so when books come my way, and this is

159
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 1: just just being honest and about what they have in

160
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 1: that book, it's a very easy book. We're talking about

161
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 1: the family table. The family table. The entire family isn't

162
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 1: on the cover, and uh it's easy, and so it's

163
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 1: it's uh the food is uh diverse. When I'm talking

164
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,680
Speaker 1: about it's just a range of different items. The desserts

00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:27,080
Speaker 1: are easy to make, and it's one of my favorite books.

166
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,880

Speaker 1: my wife uses it and uh, I let my daughter

168
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 1: cook out of it. And so it's a family experience.

169
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 1: And that's why I like it because anybody in my family,

170

Speaker 1: and UM they had a really good a really a

204
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,920
Speaker 1: really strong concept and a really strong concept concept of

205
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 1: what they wanted to do with this show and where

206
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 1: it would go. I love both those ladies. So you're

207
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: you're you're working with sperius minds of the business of

208
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 1: how to get done. So here's the thing about it

209
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:52,839
Speaker 1: is that I'm a big fan of these um you know,

210
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 1: these are doing yourself shows and things like that, and

211
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 1: when you watch them, then I'm just happy that we're

212
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 1: starting to see the African American relate ship being being

213
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,960
Speaker 1: portrayed and being on a regular basis, because it seems

214
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,079
Speaker 1: like we don't we don't go to home depot, or

215
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,320
Speaker 1: we don't cook our own meals, or we only cook

216
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 1: a certain type of meal. That's why I always push

217
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 1: people to at least look at your book, because if

218
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 1: you look at their book family table, you'll see that

219
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,679
Speaker 1: it's it's not you know, we get thrown into that

220
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 1: soul food category or a lot you know, and we

221
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,559
Speaker 1: just break a certain type of Like you said, your dessert,

222
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 1: your run of desserts is incredible. You're running the appetizers, sandwiches, uh,

223
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 1: the dinners. It's all broken up in different categories and

224
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 1: it really it's fun to hear you guys and see

225
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 1: you guys work because I get to see you know,

Speaker 1: to be part of a network like CLEO who's trying

241

307
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:57,359
Speaker 1: twenty seven and nine so high school sweetheart, Um, they

308
00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:59,959
Speaker 1: finally got their own place you just proposed to her,

309
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 1: and he comes from living with roommates and she comes

310
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 1: from living with family. So it was nice, you know,

311
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 1: a young black couple starting out, uh and get to

312
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,479
Speaker 1: see them really get all the things they needed more

313
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 1: it right, and it really has this bohemian vibe and

314
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,879
Speaker 1: God really really kills that design. And that was a

315
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 1: really really fun one. So that's one of my favorite.

316
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 1: But I mean, yeah, when you do sixteen, you have

317
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 1: a relationship with all the absolutely, absolutely absolutely. But you know,

318
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: like I say, I've done production and I know certain

319
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,760
Speaker 1: things are certain scripts, I've written, a certain actors, I've met,

320
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 1: a certain everything has I always tell people each story

321
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 1: is like a child, you know, you the script birth sait,

322
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:48,920
Speaker 1: the production grows it in the editing, in the editing

323
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 1: room gives it life. And so these experiences, especially especially

324
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:55,399
Speaker 1: in the you know, in the world that we live in,

325
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 1: the reality, you know, you're a real person. You're not

326
00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 1: playing a personal TV. You're playing itself, and so that

327
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,320
Speaker 1: has a different effect and then a different level of

328
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 1: respect because you care about these people, you care about

329
