19
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 2: on my Instagram used to like when you go to

20
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 2: the explore page, it was like full of useless information

21
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 2: about like who's breaking up with who? Who just made

22
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 2: one hundred million dollars off of what? And I was like,

23
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 2: you know, I need to change the algorithm. Like I'm

24
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 2: feeling very motherly and all I want to see on

25
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 2: my Explore page are puppies and hedgehogs and babies. So,

26
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 2: you guys, for like four hours straight over my birthday weekend,

27
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 2: I literally just looked through images of baby hedgehogs, babies,

28
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 2: puppies and liked all these images. So now when you

29
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 2: go to my explore page on Instagram, that's all you see.

30
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 2: I have no idea what's happening on the planet except

31
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 2: for what these little puppies have done all day long.

32
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 2: It's the best. I feel great about it.

33
00:01:58,320 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 1: What's a hedgehog?

34
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 2: They're like almost looks like a baby porcupine.

35
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 1: So it's just one of your little cute pages. It's

36
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 1: so cute because you stalk dogs, Dailey, I know that

37
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:08,080
Speaker 1: now it's.

38
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 2: And you know what, I'm totally I have come to

39
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 2: the realization that my baby will never be as cute

40
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 2: as a little baby puppy. It is what it is.

41
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 2: I don't think anybody.

42
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,079
Speaker 1: My god, No, I don't think my god, oh my god,

43
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: oh my guess what.

44
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 2: I'm also going to tell you this, your baby will

45
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 2: never be as cute as a little baby puppy.

46
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 1: I'm going to disagree. I'm gonna I'm gonna disagree, laughing disagree. True,

47
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: this is bullshit.

48
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 2: Look up a little baby lab or golden retriever, and

49
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 2: you tell me you have seen a baby, but you.

50
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 1: Just tell me. Want you to look at me in

51
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 1: the face right now and just say that you've just

52
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: told the world aka your fans, yeah, that our baby

53
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 1: will never be.

54
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 2: As I'm also telling them about won't be as cute.

55
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 2: Oh my god, no baby ever will be as cute

56
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 2: as a little puppy.

57
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: I am pivoting right now to this conversation and I

58
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 1: am leaving it at this Our baby, but it will,

59
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: our baby will be cuter than any damn dog ever

60
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:10,079
Speaker 1: on this.

61
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 2: Planet once I see it. Look, look at my mom,

62
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 2: Lisa Goes. Both of us are dog people. I thought

63
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 2: even Lisa Vanner Pump would be like, there's no baby.

64
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: Okay, moving on, I'm done with this conversation. What I

65
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 1: do want to talk about. What I do want to

66
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,360
Speaker 1: talk about. Zala's very dramatic. There was a cord that

67
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 1: bothered her, so she flicked it away like she was

68
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 1: protecting us from the army.

69
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 2: Because since I got prego, I feel like my eyes

70
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 2: are sensitive. My hearing is that everything's just heightened, so

71
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 2: like little buzzing noises. I'm like, what is it? What

72
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 2: is that. Okay, I want the light is just too bright.

73
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 1: I want to talk about it from the other side

74
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 1: of the coin. Yeah, since you've been pregnant, you have

75
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: had that what they call that glow, that happiness you have.

76
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 1: I've seen that. The other side of that, the other

77
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 1: side of that gloat. Now, the other side of that

78
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:05,119
Speaker 1: clowe is the hormones are an overdrive.

79
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh.

80
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 1: I mean when I say overdrive, I'm being kind. Yeah,

81
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: why don't you share the level of hormones that you're

82
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:16,479
Speaker 1: feeling as a expecting mother? Just how are you different

83
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,159
Speaker 1: in these ten weeks do you feel you know, so

84
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 1: future mothers and other mothers that have been through this,

85
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 1: you know, how are you dealing with the hormones?

86
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 2: Well, I think that this is you asking that even

87
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:33,479
Speaker 2: though it's like something that in this very moment, we

88
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 2: can be like, your hormones are crazy. I think it's

89
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 2: really important for us to talk about the fact that

90
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 2: that's why I brought it up. You're my hormones are

91
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 2: out of whack. And I would be lying if I

92
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 2: said I wake up and I think that life is

93
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 2: just awesome and I'm pregnant and I'm going to be

94
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 2: a mom right, I wake up and I'm like, I'm

95
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 2: really sad and I feel depressed, and I need to

96
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 2: talk to somebody. And then I'll go through the day

97
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 2: and I kind of start, you know, reminding myself or

98
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 2: trying to like, you're very lucky, you're very blessed. And

99
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 2: even though I know these things, hormones are a very

100
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 2: tricky thing.

101
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 1: And they're powerful, and then they yes, and I and

102
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 1: I want to add that just because you are healthy,

103
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 1: thank God, and you you know, have a roof over

104
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:20,039
Speaker 1: your head and all those things, hormones are a real

105
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 1: thing and you aren't going through that. And it's and I,

106
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 1: being your partner, watched you more so than normal. Let's

107
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 1: call it really struggle a little bit with the ups

108
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: and downs, you know, high low, high low. And I

109
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 1: just want people to know, and I want you to know.

110
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 1: But I tell you this already, is that it's okay

111
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 1: and that we're in it together. You know, this is

112
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 1: just how it is. And at the end of the day,

113
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,720
Speaker 1: it's I think it's okay to feel the way you're feeling.

114
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 2: Absolutely, And I just feel for any anybody who's going

115
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 2: through this pregnant. I know that a lot of women

116
00:05:55,240 --> 00:06:00,159
Speaker 2: suffer from postpartum. I'm in it, so this is like, Wow,

117
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 2: why am I feeling this way when like, I have

118
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 2: a life inside of me and this is so awesome,

119
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:09,039
Speaker 2: Like why do I feel upset? I don't think, but

120
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 2: I feel for women who when when I hear about

121
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 2: these stories now going through it. It can become torturous

122
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 2: to be inside of your own mind in those moments

123
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 2: when your hormones just really are kicking your ass. So

124
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 2: I'm no doctor, but I want people to know if

125
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 2: you are going through something like this, to definitely reach

126
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 2: out to someone and talk to somebody. I find a

127
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 2: lot of comfort in talking to my mom. My doctor

128
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 2: also knows that I'm you know, up and down frequently.

129
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,719
Speaker 2: I haven't come to the conclusion of I should be

130
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:52,360
Speaker 2: back on It's pretty known that I take anxiety and

131
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:56,360
Speaker 2: depression medication. I stopped taking it once I got pregnant

132
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 2: because I was so worried, and now that my hormones

133
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 2: are out of you know, it's funky. I don't. I

134
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 2: don't want to be on a prescription right now with

135
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,919
Speaker 2: this new life inside of me. I just I'm like,

136
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,159
Speaker 2: if I can talk through these and you're telling me

137
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 2: my hormones are just out of whack and I can

138
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 2: get through this. Let's stick to that script for now.

139
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 1: Well, And I think it's important also the fact you

140
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 1: can acknowledge just take away, you know, just just living

141
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 1: right now in the moment. And I've been with you

142
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 1: a long time. Now you are it's your I mean,

143
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: your hormones obviously are playing a huge trick on you.

144
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 1: They're sending you up, they're sending you down. Yeah, I

145
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: actually equate it, you know, watching you and somebody who

146
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 1: loves you so much doesn't want to see obviously you

147
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 1: you know, but it's like a washing machine. It's like

148
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 1: you're bouncing like you know, you'll get settled for a second,

149
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 1: we'll get quiet and then boom, you know, and it's

150
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 1: in its little things that are sending you, you know,

151
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 1: up and down. So at the end of the day,

152
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 1: I keep telling you when I when I call you,

153
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 1: I tell you it's okay, and we'll get through it.

154
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 1: You know, we're going to have some tough days, tougher days.

155
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 1: And at the end of the day, though, I always

156
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 1: try to remind you that you know, you're you're growing

157

00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 1: we just gotta hang in there.

160
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 2: Which is so crazy because I think about it and

161
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 2: I'm like when I go to the doctor's office and

162
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 2: she has like just walls of newborn babies that she

163
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 2: has delivered, and I'm like, oh, this is just the

164
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 2: best place ever. But then I'll go home, take a

165
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 2: nap and wake up and I'm like, my freedom is

166
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 2: gonna be gone soon. It is such like a mind

167
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,200
Speaker 2: f wait. So I'm gonna try to stop cursing as

168
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 2: much because I'm going to be a mom soon. Okay,

169
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 2: don't but don't don't count on it.

170
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,079
Speaker 1: But let me tell you. But let me tell you something.

171
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,080
Speaker 1: What First of all, I did tell you that when

172
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,959
Speaker 1: that baby comes, the running out of the house quickly

173
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 1: and is that's that's over.

174
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,840
Speaker 2: But I know, but I'm so addicted to things that

175
00:08:57,880 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 2: I love. Like I think about how I was with

176
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:03,040
Speaker 2: my dog and it was like we were running together,

177
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 2: you know, we were like little soldiers. So that she's

178
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 2: gonna be me and my boo, my baby, I love it.

179
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 1: I don't think that's gonna be an issue. I mean,

180
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 1: I mean, you treat your dog like a child. So

181
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 1: this is just a step up. It talks back. That's

182
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 1: the only difference.

183
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm looking forward to.

184
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,560
Speaker 1: That, like how I said it. Yeah, okay, so the

185
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: next step in our little baby because we're gonna, We're gonna.

186
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:26,200
Speaker 1: I want to start a regular segment on it.

187
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 2: Wait, was that the first thing? Hold on now, because

188
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,080
Speaker 2: you're I know you're going to bring up the gender reveal.

189
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 2: You posted the sonogram picture? Was that the first sonogram

190
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:40,160

193
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: of like.

194
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:48,320
Speaker 2: It's kind of cute.

195
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,560
Speaker 1: I like it, and you like and don't you like that?

196
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 1: I am so into it. I mean that's very cool.

197
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 2: Of course I love that part. Anyway, I didn't mean

198
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:55,319
Speaker 2: to cut you off.

199
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 1: Oh you did, But but the thing is, I cut

200
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:58,719
Speaker 1: you off for the last twenty episodes, so you you

201
00:09:58,720 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 1: have a lot of cutting off to do to me.

202
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,839
Speaker 1: I just want to say that you you just went

203
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 1: to the doctor today. I was on FaceTime with you

204
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,960
Speaker 1: today and you gave blood. So this today. I want

205
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 1: to do a baby update every episode, so that the

206
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 1: baby update, I will give it and then you will

207
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:15,319
Speaker 1: confirm it.

208
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:15,680
Speaker 2: Okay.

209
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:17,959
Speaker 1: The baby update is because Lola won't tell you guys

210
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 1: that shit, so I'm just going to do it. The

211
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,760
Speaker 1: baby update is she went to the doctor today, she

212
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:25,680
Speaker 1: gave blood, and that is for us to know the

213
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 1: gender correct or and correct that is correct.

214
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:32,119
Speaker 2: But more importantly, it's to see if there's down syndrome

215
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 2: and you know things that that's the most important.

216
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: Okay, so share that, share what that test was today.

217
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 2: So it's just a check to see that the baby

218
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 2: is healthy.

219
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 1: Okay.

220
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 2: You know there's obviously things you cannot test for when

221
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 2: it comes out, but a lot lucky enough that science

222
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 2: has allowed us to know if your child will have

223
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 2: downs or not.

224
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 1: So there's probably like there's a lot of things they

225
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 1: can take out of the equation.

226
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 3: Correct.

227
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 2: The gender is the fun aspect.

228
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 1: It was a serious tap, but the gender is the

229
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 1: fun part of it.

230
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, the gender is the most fun. The other stuff

231
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 2: is kind of you're a little bit nervous until you.

232
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 1: Now, I'm not tell our fans something.

233
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 2: Yeah.

234
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 1: So the next episode, which will be the baby update episode,

235
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 1: that the big baby update episode, will be at that

236
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 1: point we will know the gender of our child. So

237
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 1: when you're sitting.

238
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 2: There, oh my gosh, it's so weird.

239
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,960
Speaker 1: So when you're sitting here looking at me, you know

240
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 1: you're going to know for the rest of your life

241
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 1: whether or not you'll be raising a son or a daughter.

242
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 1: So this so the episode goes from as you refer

243
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 1: to our child right now as an it.

244
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 2: Yes, you can tell it, keep telling me.

245
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 1: She doesn't let me, let me a squid, a baby,

246
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: gummy bear, whatever it is.

247
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,320
Speaker 2: Now, don't call it him or her. I can call

248
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 2: it whatever you want, him and her.

249
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:52,719
Speaker 1: So the exciting thing is next week you're going to

250
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 1: be looking at me saying my daughter or my son.

251
00:11:55,120 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, that's heavy. Oh my god. That is

252
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:05,960
Speaker 2: a large task to take on, a big responsibility, which.

253
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:09,119
Speaker 1: From that point the following episode, we will be updating

254
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:15,160
Speaker 1: our listeners on prepping the nursery, because you can't prep

Speaker 1: I can't prep a nursery for a gummy bear.

258
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:26,439
Speaker 2: No you can't. However, I love these these stuffed animals,

259
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 2: and people have been giving me a lot of them.

260

262
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,320

Speaker 3: like the most I don't know, it's like our little

396
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:20,840
Speaker 3: secret spot that I don't want to like say right now,

397
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,439
Speaker 3: but I'll have to say anything you don't want to say.

398
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 3: But I was just like I wanted to disappear with

399
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:30,440
Speaker 3: my family for like, you know, I wanted to disappear

400
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:34,359
Speaker 3: with him. And we disappeared in Mexico for like a month,

401
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 3: and then the last week we invited like twelve people

402
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,680
Speaker 3: and they came and stayed with us in the villa,

403
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,800
Speaker 3: and I created the wedding in the month that I

404
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,480
Speaker 3: was there by just meeting people and saying, hey, you

405
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:50,920
Speaker 3: think I could get married here and they're like, yeah, sure,

406
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,359
Speaker 3: Like it was just like that. I hired local people.

407
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,399
Speaker 3: I just flew out my photographer and one of my

408
00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,639
Speaker 3: best friends is my makeup artist, Elena. So that was

409
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:03,040
Speaker 3: it and it was beautiful.

410
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 2: You're so cool, Like that is the coolest thing I've

411
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 2: ever heard. I just went to much like no stress

412
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 2: at all. And can I tell you there is no

413
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 2: culture that I adore more than Mexican culture. I like,

414
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:21,880
Speaker 2: I'm obsessed with it. So I can only imagine the

415
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 2: love and the passion and the fun that went down

416
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 2: during that time.

417
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:32,360
Speaker 3: A beautiful indigenous ceremony, spiritual. We had you know, the shaman.

418
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,800

00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,479
Speaker 3: I was mad and pressed and as I didn't have

564
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 3: a ride, so I was just like cool, long story short,

565
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 3: is it? That fucking ride got me into a major

566
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 3: car accident And like at sixteen, like I like flew

567
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 3: out of the car because I wasn't wearing a seapot

568
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 3: and I had immediate like brain surgery and you know,

569
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:52,119
Speaker 3: a coma. I wasn't gonna live and then like I

570
00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:56,879
Speaker 3: random left. Yeah, So, like I talked about it in

571
00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 3: my album and I have a song called Melly sixteen

572
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:01,880
Speaker 3: because there was this little girl in a wheelchair who

573
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 3: like came up to me and was like, you're so

574
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 3: pretty when I had like a shaved head and like

575
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:11,040
Speaker 3: pretty much not a face, and that just changed my life.

576
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 3: So I dedicated my song to her, and she's in

577
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:18,879
Speaker 3: my actual music video which is called Melly sixteen and

578
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:22,040
Speaker 3: my album. So yeah, so that's really how it all

579
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,239
Speaker 3: started kind of, and like I kind of gave up

580
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 3: on acting because in Hollywood, you know, they're just used

581
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:31,440
Speaker 3: to seeing like maybe the Mexican like look and there,

582
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:34,639
Speaker 3: they don't really understand that Caribbean we're just mixed with

583
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 3: like Africa and indigenous and you know, Spanish, so like

584
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 3: we look different, and all of us look all different,

585
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:45,280
Speaker 3: you know, colors, So they didn't really understand why I

586
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 3: had this long, curly hair and I could speak fluent

587
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,520
Speaker 3: Spanish and I didn't look Mexican, you know. So that's

588
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 3: why I gave up on acting. Wow, focus on music. Yeah,

589
00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 3: and music brought me to New York.

590
00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 2: Okay, So what how old were you when you went

591
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:00,720
Speaker 2: to New York for music?

592
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,520
Speaker 3: So I went to New York for music, maybe twenty three,

593
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 3: and I gave up acting and I started at fifteen.

594
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 3: Imagine I had my car accident.

595
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 1: What a loss to our community? You know what I mean?

596
00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,960
Speaker 1: You waitning, I mean, I'm saying. I'm serious. You don't

597
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 1: at that time, Like at that time, you decide you

598
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 1: just get down because of the opportunity. You don't feel

599
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 1: as there. You go to New York and then you

600
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,760
Speaker 1: get into the music scene, right what you're already into.

601
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:24,719
Speaker 1: But I mean, now, what happens in New York? Well,

602

Speaker 2: We're back with Jackie Cruz. Okay, so you are now

Speaker 2: twenty three at this time and you're in New York

607
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:46,560
Speaker 2: doing music. Now, tell me did people understand more of

608
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:52,479
Speaker 2: like because I know that New York now has a

609
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 2: very heavy dr population. Were they more receptive of where

610

Speaker 1: They're like they are on top of the world. And

664
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 1: even when I was coming up and didn't have much,

665
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:29,280
Speaker 1: and I'm sure you felt the same, they treated me

666
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 1: the same as they treat me today as they did

667
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:32,320
Speaker 1: twenty something years ago.

668
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 3: So I lacktly when I was a waitress for them,

669
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:39,320
Speaker 3: you know, like I was his friend first, then I

670
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,640
Speaker 3: was his waitress and then you know, I can't really

671
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 3: hang out with them too much because of you know,

672
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 3: work issues. But then but they were still always respectful.

673
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 3: They believed in me. They were you know, Melissa was

674
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:53,080
Speaker 3: my friends. And then now like shit, they get me tables,

675
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:55,959
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like they're the best. And

676
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,240
Speaker 3: you know, Dave Grutman is the one who gave me

677
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 3: my first well he recommended me for my first waitressing

678
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 3: job in Miami.

679
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:05,520
Speaker 2: Oh wow, that's amazing. And they probably all knew that

680
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:08,000
Speaker 2: you were gonna be someone great someday. And it feels

681
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:11,600
Speaker 2: good when people who who see celebrities all the time

682
00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 2: and then they look at you and you like, you know,

683
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 2: you haven't quite made it yet, and they're like, you're

684
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 2: gonna make it one day. You're like, damn, you.

685
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 1: Really think so? But it shows their character, don't Yeah.

686
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 3: And it just makes you believe that you are, you know.

687
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,720
Speaker 3: So like that's why I give him so much credit. Literally,

688
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 3: he could be busy as hell and he'll always text.

689
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,479
Speaker 3: So I always got to give a shout out to

690
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:33,440
Speaker 3: my people because let me tell you something. I was

691
00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 3: working as a waitress season one, two and three at

692
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:40,040
Speaker 3: Lavo before I got fired. But we'll talk about that late.

693
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 3: But yeah, like you know what I mean, Like Orange

694
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 3: didn't pay me until later on until you know, the

695
00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:50,480
Speaker 3: show kicked off and they were like, oh, we got

696
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 3: something here. And it was a test, you know. The

697
00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 3: first season was a test and they picked out the

698
00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:58,200
Speaker 3: people they wanted to write for. But the reason why

699
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:00,800
Speaker 3: I got the show was because I missed, you know, acting,

700
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 3: and one of the girls had a manager and she

701
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:06,400
Speaker 3: was like, see my manager, and the manager's like cool.

702
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:10,800
Speaker 3: And my first audition was for Flaka. And there's also

703
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:13,160
Speaker 3: another girl that worked with me that was like this

704
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:16,360
Speaker 3: feisty Latina uh and I'm gonna color out Karina.

705
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:16,840
Speaker 1: I love you.

706
00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:20,839
Speaker 3: She would get that crazy and like I would imitate her.

707
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 3: You know, I was like, don't fuck with my three m's,

708
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:26,520
Speaker 3: my mama, my man. She said, my mama, my man,

709
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:29,600
Speaker 3: and my money. You fuck with my money to that bitch.

710
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:32,400
Speaker 3: She would literally talk like that right, Oh my god.

711
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:35,320
Speaker 3: I love her, And then she would have a crush

712
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,400
Speaker 3: on the like manager and she's like I saw you

713
00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 3: talking to my man. I was like, girl, he's just

714
00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:43,239
Speaker 3: teaching me how to use like micros and she's like, oh,

715
00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:46,480
Speaker 3: did you say anything about me? Like she's fucking nuts.

716
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:50,320
Speaker 3: So like when I auditioned for Flaka, it was Karina

717
00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:51,719
Speaker 3: that I was like embodying.

718
00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:55,040
Speaker 2: No, you're channeling a girl that you knew from Like

719
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:59,799
Speaker 2: that's awesome, Yes, yes, that's my girl, yo.

720
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 3: And now she's she finished high school. You know, she

721
00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:07,160
Speaker 3: had a tough upbringing, but like she's living her dream

722
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:10,680
Speaker 3: right now, and I call her like Flacka's future, you know, yeah,

723
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:14,919
Speaker 3: because you know she got out of the of that world, right.

724
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:18,920
Speaker 2: I think everyone fell in love with you when you

725
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:23,240
Speaker 2: stepped onto Orange is the New Black, because every time

726
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 2: you stepped onto the screen, it was like you were

727
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 2: just infatuated with what you brought to that character. I'm

728
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:34,560
Speaker 2: being dead serious. I remember I first started watching Orange

729
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 2: Is the New Black when I moved to LA seven

730
00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:41,480
Speaker 2: years ago. I don't remember how many seasons y'all had

731
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:44,359
Speaker 2: at that time, but I just remember I was like,

732
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:48,440
Speaker 2: this show is single handedly making me feel like I'm

733
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:50,760
Speaker 2: gonna make shit happen out here. Like I don't know how,

734
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:52,920
Speaker 2: but I'm feeling less depressed.

735
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, because we're finally we see like us kind of

736
00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:59,279
Speaker 3: like we get to see us on TV, which we

737
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:01,480
Speaker 3: don't usually see right.

738
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:04,960
Speaker 2: In the backstories of everybody, Like I think Jenji Cohen

739
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:09,719
Speaker 2: is just absolutely fucking brilliant. I mean that had to

740
00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:12,080
Speaker 2: be just like it's surreal moment when they're like, oh,

741
00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:14,239
Speaker 2: by the way, like we are gonna was it? Or like,

742
00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:16,360
Speaker 2: did you guys not know that Orange was gonna be

743
00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:18,160
Speaker 2: that big, No.

744
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:22,080
Speaker 3: We like this is when Netflix was still like mailing

745
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:30,160
Speaker 3: you like CDs. Oh shoot yeah, Like my cousin was like, oh,

746
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:33,520
Speaker 3: I'm gonna have to pay for that shit, Like is

747
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:35,920
Speaker 3: that like what she's like? Is that a web series?

748
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 3: Like I got mad? I got made fun of? Like seriously, wow,

749
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:41,279
Speaker 3: Well now he's laughing.

750
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:44,799
Speaker 1: Out right exactly. You tell him, Jackie. I gotta tell you.

751
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:48,319
Speaker 1: People don't know. Jackie's like a huge deal besides being

752
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,399
Speaker 1: an actress. People know you, but you're a huge deal

753
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:55,440
Speaker 1: of music. I've seen you perform at football stadiums like

754
00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:58,880
Speaker 1: it's nobody's business. Nobody's business.

755
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:04,320
Speaker 3: That's it was scary. You got to act like it's.

756
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 1: All right now. I just want to tell people that

757
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:08,840
Speaker 1: are listening because people I don't know if they know,

758
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,360
Speaker 1: but you know, we just after six months of being

759
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:15,680
Speaker 1: shut down on my first movie I'm directing Midnight, which

760
00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:17,400
Speaker 1: people have heard about, and they've had a meal her

761
00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 1: Sean and Machine on Kelly and Megan Fox. Jackie has

762
00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:23,640
Speaker 1: been part of this cast from the jump. It's just

763
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:26,480
Speaker 1: we've been shut down and we actually resume filming now.

764
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:31,920
Speaker 1: So Jackie is about to collab with her friend Randall

765
00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 1: so there we go.

766
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:37,879
Speaker 3: Gosho, yo, do you know that I've been dreaming about

767
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:40,759
Speaker 3: this like the whole twenty twenty oh man, Like I

768
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:43,400
Speaker 3: was supposed to be in Puerto Rico. I was already

769
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 3: supposed to be on your jet.

770
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:48,200
Speaker 1: I doubt that's true, Jackie. You were already supposed to

771
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:49,760
Speaker 1: be on that jet. But you know what, the world

772
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,719
Speaker 1: came to a halt and we are now going to

773
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:54,160

Speaker 1: with the level of talent I brought? So if I'm

00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:16,120

00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:22,120
Speaker 1: All right, baby, I have to ask question you know what.

914
00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:23,840
Speaker 1: I want to tell you something. An I'll shut up

915
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:27,840
Speaker 1: again because I get excited. You know. I feel like COVID,

916
00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:31,080
Speaker 1: you know, slowed a lot of friendships down that we have. Yeah,

917
00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:33,640
Speaker 1: and I really miss people like Jackie and we need

918
00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:35,120
Speaker 1: to make a little more of an effort to like

919
00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:36,120
Speaker 1: get together.

920
00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:39,680
Speaker 2: With I have learned during COVID that I value the

921
00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:42,520
Speaker 2: friendships that I have, that we pick up where we

922
00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:47,320
Speaker 2: left off, that we may have not spoken for weeks,

923
00:44:47,600 --> 00:44:49,640
Speaker 2: maybe a couple months, and it's just like we are

924
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:52,560
Speaker 2: right back where we used to be. So I agree

925
00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:55,080
Speaker 2: with you, and I also think it's important that we

926
00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,480
Speaker 2: acknowledge the fact that our guests do not have to

927
00:44:57,480 --> 00:44:59,880
Speaker 2: come on our podcast. They do that because they want

928
00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:03,480
Speaker 2: and they are badasses for doing that. So just like

929
00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:06,160
