Speaker 1: This is he said Ayadiho with Eric Winter and Rodlin Fantaz.
Speaker 2: Welcome back to a long it's been a bit since.
Speaker 1: Last It's been a lot, guys. I am so happy
Speaker 1: to be back. To be honest, it's just been it's
Speaker 1: been a little nutty with a lot of things going on.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I'm here for what two episodes, and then
Speaker 1: I leave again, unfortunately, guys. I'm gonna try to I'm
Speaker 1: gonna be in Spaine for a month. I'm going to
Speaker 1: try to do some episodes to squeeze squeeze them. I
Speaker 1: think it might be possible because of the time difference,
Speaker 1: but maybe one I don't know.
Speaker 2: Let's say, be done on a weekend, but I don't know.
Speaker 2: It might just be me. Might do some lunch with
Speaker 2: the rookies. We'll figure out some some episodes that we
Speaker 2: can put together, but it'll all be good. As she
Speaker 2: goes off to work, we apologize for you know, not
Speaker 2: being present for a few weeks. I know, roz On
Speaker 2: explained a bit on Twitter at one point. We also,
Speaker 2: you know, posted some instagrams to let you know that
Speaker 2: we were dealing with the family tragedy, which was a
Speaker 2: lot and we needed to take a break from doing
Speaker 2: the podcast while also still having to you know, do
Speaker 2: our other work and keep going.
Speaker 1: And it became really complicated, guys, because we prior, like
Speaker 1: hours days prior to the incident. Incident meaning my nephew
Speaker 1: passed away nineteen years old, and it's been of course
Speaker 1: devastating for the whole family. But post pre and post
Speaker 1: there was a lot of stuff going on with prior
Speaker 1: commitments with the rum and even the podcast and work
Speaker 1: and things for my movie, so everything had to basically
Speaker 1: stop and we were, like you saying, missing in action
Speaker 1: mi IAP, but we just couldn't make ourselves, you know,
Speaker 1: like be present, and when it came to social media,
Speaker 1: when we were dealing with those whole things. So it's
Speaker 1: been it's been like all over the place, to be honest,
Speaker 1: but we're getting back on track.
Speaker 2: We truly appreciate everybody's public support of what we were
Speaker 2: going through. We obviously can't talk too much about it.
Speaker 2: There's an ongoing police investigation, so we can't really comment
Speaker 2: on much given that this is you know, a public platform,
Speaker 2: and we just if anybody was to get wind of
Speaker 2: anything that we're talking about, it could work against the case.
Speaker 2: Being built. So we just want to say thank you.
Speaker 2: We appreciate e based support.
Speaker 1: It was a car accident because I don't want people
Speaker 1: just I don't know if I ever clarified. Oh yeah
Speaker 1: I did. I did an that I talked about it. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So it was a car accident, guys. Unfortunately, five kids
Speaker 1: and he was the only fatality and the person fled
Speaker 1: the scene. So it was yeah, we're just in the
Speaker 1: middle of the whole thing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so thank you for that. And as we you know,
Speaker 2: navigate to get back on track. Things have been things
Speaker 2: have been busy. Otherwise we'll talk about some positive stuff, right,
Speaker 2: because I think it's better to get into some positive.
Speaker 1: Do you give me something positive because I need it?
Speaker 2: Almost locked, right, that's a positive sing You were able
Speaker 2: to get back to work in your in your movie.

Speaker 2: You put frosting on top of the cake.
Speaker 1: Frosting.
Speaker 2: Yeah.

Speaker 2: No, No, I don't think so your whole life. But
Speaker 2: they keep been saying frosty.
Speaker 1: Yeah, frosty, yeah, no, is it frosting?
Speaker 2: Yeah?

Speaker 2: And you know, we had some really great I wanted

Speaker 2: had a great kickoff party at the One Hotel in
Speaker 2: West Hollywood, which was incredible. Rosland's whole cast off a
Speaker 2: movie was able to make it. Most of my cash
Speaker 2: from the show was able to come by and support,
Speaker 2: and just really great seeing the reception by everybody and that,
Speaker 2: you know, the support means so much, so thank you.
Speaker 2: A lot of good stuff going on. We had a
Speaker 2: crazy weekend on top. You know, we haven't spoken about
Speaker 2: tennis in quite a while, and I just want to
Speaker 2: again add that tennis parents are out of their minds.
Speaker 2: And I'm not saying that I'm immune to me out
Speaker 2: of my mind because I can. I just I can't stop.
Speaker 2: I can't tolerate stupidity. Just if we're gonna let these
Speaker 2: kids just play, let them play and at the same
Speaker 2: time play by the rules. Like I'm not talking about
Speaker 2: line call, just play and understand the rules of the game. Listen,
Speaker 2: Sabella playing in a tournament. Know how this past weekend
Speaker 2: I encountered two crazy well I wouldn't say the parents
Speaker 2: were crazy, and the second one the kid had lost
Speaker 2: her mind. And I feel bad. I know these are kids.
Speaker 2: And you know, this girl's probably fourteen and Sabella is
Speaker 2: twelve to twenty thirteen. But I've never seen a player
Speaker 2: lose their composure hitting the ball back at Sabella like
Speaker 2: to try to like in between games, like when Sabella's
Speaker 2: turned to serve, like trying to target Sabella just to
Speaker 2: get the ball to her side so she can then serve,
Speaker 2: making her run both ways to go get balls to go,
Speaker 2: serve like just not being no sportsmanship. This girl we
Speaker 2: played against would call her own balls out because Sabella
Speaker 2: would return it so she couldn't get it. So she'd say,
Speaker 2: my ball was out, your ball doesn't count, And in
Speaker 2: front of a line's judge. A line judge had to
Speaker 2: warn the girl multiple times to stop. It was the
Speaker 2: craziest meltdown I've ever seen in a sport. Those parents
Speaker 2: actually couldn't argue anything because it was just bonkers to
Speaker 2: see what the kid was doing. And then another parent
Speaker 2: just not allowing her kid to play by the rules
Speaker 2: at all. And I'm trying to explain her to the
Speaker 2: rules and she's like, don't tell me the rules. I
Speaker 2: don't need to know the rules, And so what are
Speaker 2: we all doing out Here's just just recreational fun. I'm
Speaker 2: sorry if you don't play, if you don't have tennis
Speaker 2: kids or junior tennis kids, you won't understand any of this.
Speaker 2: But let me just say parents lose their damn minds.
Speaker 2: I wish this sport just had referees at all times.
Speaker 2: He would eliminate half the issues.
Speaker 1: I'm just glad I wasn't there. It's so bad when
Speaker 1: they came back home, like Eric was texting me the
Speaker 1: whole fiasco. And then they came back, you know, and
Speaker 1: God bless Sabby's who won the tournament is her first
Speaker 1: time winning a level five under fourteen fourteen and under meanings.
Speaker 1: She was playing with the girls that were fourteen and
Speaker 1: she's only twelve, so that was a huge accomplishment. But
Speaker 1: they came back and they're telling me the stories, and
Speaker 1: she keeps saying, I'm just so glad you weren't not
Speaker 1: their mom. I'm so glad you were not there, because yeah,
Speaker 1: I think.
Speaker 2: I was having trouble keeping my cool. Like there was
Speaker 2: many times where I was just going, oh my god,
Speaker 2: this is not happening, Like.
Speaker 1: What you kin You didn't because you went to the
Speaker 1: lady saying just so you know, they deducted at one
Speaker 1: point from your daughter.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean these parents have to know. Have
Speaker 2: you go to teach your kids sportsmanship? I do't. That's
Speaker 2: the one thing that just drives me crazy, like teach.
Speaker 2: I will say, this is so funny and every parent.
Speaker 2: I say this all the time because I'm telling you
Speaker 2: you know again, if you don't do junior tennis, you
Speaker 2: have to The kids have to call their own line calls.
Speaker 2: If the ball is in or out, it's up to
Speaker 2: the kid to decide. If there's a a discrepancy, someone
Speaker 2: doesn't like the call, you have to go get a
Speaker 2: lin's person who they will watch the match. Right, That's
Speaker 2: how it works. Every parent, every kid thinks the other
Speaker 2: kid is cheating. It doesn't matter. I've never I've never
Speaker 2: witnessed a situation where every parent just thinks kids are
Speaker 2: doing their best. To be honest, every parent thinks your
Speaker 2: kid is cheating, and vice versa. Right, So, with three
Speaker 2: incidents where the kid said, Sabella called a bad call,
Speaker 2: so they went to get a line judge and Sabella
Speaker 2: and I'm watching the calls too, and Sabella's like, no,
Speaker 2: the ball was out, And even the other parent thinking
Speaker 2: Sabella made a bad call cut two not even two
Speaker 2: minutes later, the other girl gets a line judge, and
Speaker 2: multiple times the line judge overrules the other players call
Speaker 2: when they called Sabella's ball out, meaning you got caught
Speaker 2: cheating with the line judge. There the girl who called
Speaker 2: the line judge, which is so embarrassing because as a parent,
Speaker 2: if you're like blaming another kid for bad calls, and
Speaker 2: then you get a referee and then now your kid
Speaker 2: is making bad calls that are blatantly overturned, it just
Speaker 2: shows you how bad the sport can be without the
Speaker 2: proper sort of adult guidance. But if forces these kids
Speaker 2: to grow quick, I can tell you that they have
Speaker 2: to be very mature and handle themselves.
Speaker 1: Island and Savie's does an amazing job at that, because
Speaker 1: I don't think we've ever seen Sabella lose. She gets
Speaker 1: at all, She gets poudy, but she doesn't she doesn't
Speaker 1: starbot touch the other girls she does, she doesn't do
Speaker 1: any of that. And now we're dealing guys with her
Speaker 1: high school. No high school, her school's tennis junis. We
Speaker 1: were not sure if she was going to be playing
Speaker 1: for the school representing the school, because you know, she
Speaker 1: has a crazy schedule when it comes to tennis. Every
Speaker 1: single day she goes to academy and it was a lot,
Speaker 1: but she is playing for the school and she's one
Speaker 1: of the top players, you know, for junior high. And
Speaker 1: so now we're dealing with another set of tennis universe
Speaker 1: because we go to these games and listen, the girls
Speaker 1: are not even close to the level of competition that
Speaker 1: you get at the USTA and the tournament that she
Speaker 1: goes to. But it's funny because everybody's very it's just
Speaker 1: a hobby for most of these girls and for Sabby,
Speaker 1: and you know, for us, it's not a hobby. You know,
Speaker 1: we're hoping that something is going to come out of this.
Speaker 1: So the level of intensity that we bring to these games,
Speaker 1: the matches that are just high school, it's like we're
Speaker 1: not a day compared to the other parents. I already
Speaker 1: see them, like like parents from Sabella's class. You know
Speaker 1: that the kids are also playing, they're part of the team.
Speaker 1: I already see them looking at those kind of weird.
Speaker 1: So now it's annoying. It's so annoying.
Speaker 2: Present we've never put pressure and this is the truth,
Speaker 2: we have never put pressure on Sabella to win. That
Speaker 2: is a fact. I've never said you have to win.
Speaker 2: Come on you, this is like, it's all about winning.
Speaker 2: To me, what I've said to her point like you
Speaker 2: maybe you have, like Rosland definitely does. She freaks out,
Speaker 2: but she doesn't say to Sabella, just says it to me.
Speaker 2: But for me, it's about you need to get better
Speaker 2: every day, the winning and the losing. Kobe Bryant said
Speaker 2: it great. If you're focused on the winning and the losing,
Speaker 2: you're going to drive yourself crazy. You don't gain anything
Speaker 2: by winning one match at twelve years old or losing
Speaker 2: a match. What you're going to gain is by getting
Speaker 2: better every single time you step on the court. And
Speaker 2: that is a mindset issue and it's something that these
Speaker 2: kids have to understand. I need to get better. I
Speaker 2: don't need to stay the same just to win. And
Speaker 2: that's something that's.
Speaker 1: Being so specific and not hard on Isabella. But we
Speaker 1: are going to these games and she's clearly beating everybody
Speaker 1: because she's at a different level. But we encourage her
Speaker 1: to be like Sep, don't go, don't play down to
Speaker 1: the level of the girl you're playing. Just you know,
Speaker 1: work on your game and actually do even better, and
Speaker 1: and and and take chances and be more aggressive because
Speaker 1: you know you're gonna win anyways. But so we're vocal
Speaker 1: when it comes to that. So we are actually expherient
Speaker 1: or how do you mean, not demanding, but we're letting
Speaker 1: her know we're expecting things. And we tell them and
Speaker 1: then all their parents look at us like we're absolutely crazy.
Speaker 2: Just want zero was like, yeah, but if you don't,
Speaker 2: but that was that's not the point. If you don't
Speaker 2: win playing your best, what's the point not improving? Then
Speaker 2: it's a wasteable win. So we had a crazy person
Speaker 2: come up to our house the other night and try
Speaker 2: to break in the front door. That was wild.
Speaker 1: It was yesterday.
Speaker 2: This is what's crazy, you know, obsessed with I'm obsessed
Speaker 2: with shark I'm obsessed with Shark Tank. The Ring Camera.
Speaker 2: I don't know if you'll remember these episodes, but the
Speaker 2: ring camera got passed on by Shark Tank. They said,
Speaker 2: why invent if the wheels not broke, why fix it?
Speaker 2: Doorbells or doorbells? The ring camera gets invented. This company
Speaker 2: is a billion dollar company. Shark Tank passed on it.
Speaker 2: Probably the best thing ever, I mean, is the best
Speaker 2: thing that ever happened to that company and that ring.
Speaker 2: I'm so glad that we have one that Literally we're
Speaker 2: in bed nine of it. At night, the ring alert
Speaker 2: goes off and there is a woman that has our
Speaker 2: gate was not working at the moment. She had just
Speaker 2: pulled straight into the driveway and tried to walk in
Speaker 2: the front door and never ring the doorbell, never knock,
Speaker 2: never did anything. And then we went out there. I
Speaker 2: spoke to on the camera. I said, mam, you need
Speaker 2: to leave. You're at the wrong property, Dada. She tried
Speaker 2: to break in three more times, shaking the door, trying
Speaker 2: to open the door, trying to unlock it, walking around
Speaker 2: the driveway like a crazy person, like she was off
Speaker 2: talking to herself, talking on the front. We don't know
Speaker 2: what she was doing. We had actually call the cops,
Speaker 2: which was wild because you know, you'd think like maybe
Speaker 2: the person just went to the wrong house, but you
Speaker 2: don't go to the wrong house, see all the lights
Speaker 2: off and continue to try to get in the front
Speaker 2: door and then be warned on the ring camera to
Speaker 2: leave and still try to get in. So Nina's say,
Speaker 2: Roslind's freaking out, Our daughter's awake, she's in tears, she's
Speaker 2: freaking out. All the cops show up, get under control.
Speaker 1: Not of cops, guys, it's helicopter with the l.
Speaker 2: DOC came over the house.
Speaker 1: Shining onto the woman. She's laughing, hysterical, looking at the
Speaker 1: hill like she's missing something. I'm gonna tell you. And
Speaker 1: this is what Eric doesn't my son a little woo woo,
Speaker 1: But it was it was.
Speaker 2: She just kept streaming, this is a witch. It's a witch, guys,
Speaker 2: because Halloween's around the corner. Eric doesn't mean.
Speaker 1: You know what, because we have the ring camera and
Speaker 1: we have everything documentary.
Speaker 2: Also could just be we're crazy.
Speaker 1: You're gonna take a picture because we're going to post
Speaker 1: on Instagram her back, because we're gonna show her face. Guys, No, no, no,
Speaker 1: you I want your comments regarding do you think this
Speaker 1: is a witch or no? Do is what I mean?
Speaker 1: This is a woman photo that breaks into the house.
Speaker 1: She's dressed, She's dressed like black black long dress, jet
Speaker 1: black hair, actually beautiful hair, jet black hair, all very
Speaker 1: very very long, all the way.
Speaker 2: That stereotypical that has jet black hair and bang blonde.
Speaker 1: And listen, it was a witch. I was like, we
Speaker 1: have a wish and the way she was laughing when
Speaker 1: the helicopter came and I was like, she's she's looking
Speaker 1: at the sky. The light is all over her face
Speaker 1: like a spotlight. She's laughing. She's completely disoriented. She was
Speaker 1: talking to herself. She's walking like a witch. We got
Speaker 1: freaking witch. And like I said, like she was walking,
Speaker 1: she was just walking. I don't know, you don't understand anything.
Speaker 2: She's not like a witch. And what if she was
Speaker 2: a blonde? She is a blonde, you'd still say she's
Speaker 2: a witch. No, only which is a brunette?
Speaker 1: Unfortunately, No, I'm just no, no, no, of course there's blonde,
Speaker 1: which is you know which you know, witch is a practice.
Speaker 2: She didn't have like the guys. She was just in
Speaker 2: like a spaghetti.
Speaker 1: Strips wicked you know what? That was exactly right, wicked,
Speaker 1: freaking looking witch. Listen to me, guys like she was crazy.
Speaker 1: A couple a couple of weeks ago, we had another
Speaker 1: person that was going a delivery like and ubeats and
Speaker 1: then got stuck. We have a very very long driveway
Speaker 1: that is very like narrow, and then the gate right,
Speaker 1: so the person went up realized is the wrong address?
Speaker 2: And then tried to make a three point turn in.
Speaker 1: It, which is incredibly.
Speaker 2: Tiny, like physically, it's just so.
Speaker 1: He was from a different I don't know what.
Speaker 2: In the city country, didn't speak English.
Speaker 1: So that was crazy. So that happens to us and going,
Speaker 1: what are the odds that Listen, you don't see our
Speaker 1: house from the street. It's a very long driveway. You
Speaker 1: don't know there's even a house all the way up there.
Speaker 1: So it's very very rare that somebody would just go
Speaker 1: up the I have away, I make the mistake, like
Speaker 1: like the so that happened, then this witch lady, then
Speaker 1: my my nephew's situation, all these crazy things that are happening.
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not happy. I'm not it's not cool.
Speaker 1: It's not cool. We got a witch at the house.
Speaker 2: There's there's no way you do. Why can't just be
Speaker 2: a crazy person. She was crazy, she was off, even
Speaker 2: though the police said she was off.
Speaker 1: Energetically, there was something very weird going on. Anyways, let's
Speaker 1: talk about Los Angeles, California before we leave. You're I
Speaker 1: know you're born and raised in the state, and you're
Speaker 1: a proud Californian. The Dodgers are going to the to
Speaker 1: the world, the World, what World the World series? And
Speaker 1: listen this, this state and this city has been amazing.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I've been living here for twenty
Speaker 1: something years. I met the matter of my dreams. I
Speaker 1: have a beautiful family. I've been working on stop accomplishing
Speaker 1: dreams and goals. So so I love California. The weather
Speaker 1: is exquisite. What is happening with this? Let's talk about
Speaker 1: Los Angeles maybe specific.
Speaker 2: What is crime is terrible. We have big issues right
Speaker 2: now that the city needs to get under control. We
Speaker 2: got to get rid of our hate to get I
Speaker 2: hate to get political, but gotta get rid of the
Speaker 2: district attorney. It doesn't make any sense how high the crime.
Speaker 1: The crime right now, And it doesn't matter what neighborhoods
Speaker 1: you can go to, like like any kind of gata communities,
Speaker 1: wealthy people, very very low income communities. It doesn't matter
Speaker 1: where you go, where you are. The homelessness situation is
Speaker 1: out of control. People are losing their minds to drop
Speaker 1: problems among the homeless people is the schizophrenia, all all
Speaker 1: these mental health issues. We live in a pretty nice
Speaker 1: community again, all the way up a freaking.
Speaker 2: California is the number one state in the country that
Speaker 2: people are leaving.
Speaker 1: And I've been begging you to leave for five years.
Speaker 2: I can't. I'm working on a show. I know.
Speaker 1: The second you don't with the show, We're out of
Speaker 1: here because I can't do this anymore. The kids are
Speaker 1: begging us to leave. Is like you can even be
Speaker 1: secure in your own home. What are the odds? What
Speaker 1: are the odds that where we live with a long
Speaker 1: ass driveway right, it's it's we get a whole match.
Speaker 1: We'll go all the way up. The gate happens to
Speaker 1: be open because it is broke and she has the
Speaker 1: it is that happens in movies. I don't understand it.
Speaker 1: So the universe is giving us a sign. It's California
Speaker 1: for us is past a due.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry and that's how I ran for the day.
Speaker 1: Anyways, I love you, California. I love you that you've
Speaker 1: been amazing.
