172
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,960

173
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 1: not strange in a bad way, just like I think

174
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,560
Speaker 1: like half of the room knew what was going on

175
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,679
Speaker 1: in the other half was like, hey, I'm trying to dance,

176
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 1: say and it was like it was just kind of

177
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 1: it was just kind of fun to just you know,

178
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: stand in the back and watch it all kind of

179
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 1: go down. It was cool. Yeah, it was an experimental event.

180
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 1: A podcast party. What is a podcast party? So thank

00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: not know who you are. I mean a lot of

185
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 1: people don't know who I am. It's totally fine. Um,

Speaker 1: doing comedy for almost fifteen years, stand up comedy for

188
00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: almost fifteen years. And I started in the Bay Area

Speaker 1: from California, born and raised and um, currently doing well.

190
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 1: I'm not currently doing comedy in l A because that's

191
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 1: not happening. But I was doing comedy l A. I

192
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 1: was running a really great weekly women's only show, Women

193
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:19,200
Speaker 1: Crush Wednesdays. That was really fun. Um that's you know,

194
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 1: we're waiting for that to hopefully start up again. And

198
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:39,320
Speaker 1: Crush Wednesday the night that Nicole Buyer was performing. It

199
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 1: was so fun. Yeah, she's always fun, she's always she's

200
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: she she has an open door, uh invitation there, So

201
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 1: it's always nice to have her. She's fucking wild. She

202
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 1: has another another amazing podcaster. I love. Why wouldn't you

203
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:59,560
Speaker 1: date me? So, Marcella, you tweeted a few weeks ago,

204
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 1: a few days ago, whatever time is at that point,

205
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 1: it's not real. It's not real. Maybe I just tweeted it.

206
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 1: Maybe I just tweeted it. Yeah, about how comedic timing

207
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:14,719
Speaker 1: doesn't really work on Zoom and I know you've been

208
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 1: doing some Zoom shows, so can we talk about that

209
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,080
Speaker 1: comedy and COVID? How's it working? How's it not working?

210
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 1: I have not been doing Zoom shows. I've been doing

211
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 1: like Zoom events, but not Zoom shows because I cannot,

212
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,560
Speaker 1: I will not. I refuse to do stand up on

213
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:36,200
Speaker 1: a Zoom show because there's a delay, and comedy you

214
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 1: need the instant reaction, and uh, it just doesn't make

215
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,520
Speaker 1: sense to me. Like I was telling somebody recently, how

216
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 1: like when we start doing common and even now, when

217
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 1: you experiment when new material you a delayed reaction is negative.

218
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 1: It means that the joke is either not funny, or

219
00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 1: it's not easy to understand, or maybe you just need

220
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 1: to change to word, um, but a day delayed reaction.

221
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,199
Speaker 1: We've and you know, I've been doing comedy so long,

222
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,719
Speaker 1: A delayed reaction fox with my head. You know, I'm

223
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 1: sure like some of the people who've only been in

224
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 1: comedy for a few years are probably fine with it

225
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,960
Speaker 1: because they're just they're not there. It's easier to adapt

226
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: when you've only been doing it for a few years.

227
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 1: But I've been doing it too long. But I'm like,

228
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 1: I do zoom stand up. I'm just gonna get super upset.

229
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get mad. Like I don't know if you've

230
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 1: ever if you've only been to the Nicole Buyer Women crush,

231
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 1: I have a tendency to get upset on stage and

232
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,080
Speaker 1: take it out on the audience and it doesn't go

233
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 1: my way, which is sometimes funny and sometimes it's fucking terrible.

234
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: So I I just can't imagine. I just I can't

235
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 1: imagine enjoying the fucking delayed response, you know, right, Yeah, No,

236
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 1: I can totally see that. I mean, even just trying

237
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 1: to record a freaking podcast episode a nightmare. Yeah, especially

238
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 1: like you know, when you're dependent on or not dependent,

239
00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 1: but you work on people's energies, right when you're integrating people.

240
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 1: Uh and I are, you know, doing our little thing

241
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 1: or back and forth and the delay does not it

242
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,840
Speaker 1: doesn't work. If it doesn't help, it's not cute. Well

243
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: because yeah, because then you end up stepping on each

244
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 1: other and interrupting when you think someone was pausing for

245
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 1: for an opening, but you don't know if they're just

246
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 1: completing their thought. And it's just it's sucked up. It's

247
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 1: it's not fun, it's not smooth. It takes away some

248
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,080
Speaker 1: of the fun. But what are you gonna do? What

249
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 1: are you gonna do? So zoom events, But you've also

250
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 1: done some parking lot shows, Yeah, I did. I was

251
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 1: that girl. I was open with barsa okay comedian who

252
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 1: has both in English and Spanish special right now on Netflix.

253
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 1: Check that out, y'all. And if you haven't already, and um,

254
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:45,400
Speaker 1: he invited me. Actually I did stand up at a

255
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 1: comedy club the week before and saw like City Utah.

256
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 1: Because they have like a low number of cases. They've

257
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 1: been running the show since or I should say running

258
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:56,720
Speaker 1: the club since May. And they are, you know, following

259
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 1: all the COVID guidelines and so um. After talking to

260
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:04,000
Speaker 1: another communyo who had been headlining there. I agreed to

261
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 1: open for Phelipe, and that was a little nerve wracking

262
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 1: because it was like, we're inside and I'm not usually

263
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 1: being inside with a bunch of people. And it was

264
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 1: a three hundred seater but they only had a hundred

265
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: and fifty people in the room and it was a

266
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 1: little uncomfortable. Um, And but it was fine, you know.

267
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,160
Speaker 1: It was also like, fucking what a trip to just

268
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,200
Speaker 1: be able to do stand up, tell jokes and get

269
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 1: a reaction. I was, so it was and I did great,

270
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 1: by the way, So I just wanted everybody hearing to

271
00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 1: know you can take a long gass break. I'm still

272
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 1: do very good if you were good at what you do. Um.

273
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 1: But it was that was that was sucking a mind funk.

274
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 1: But it was fun and it was a really good

275
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:45,280
Speaker 1: way to transition into doing the driving shows because the

276
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 1: driving shows fucking sucked. They fucking suck. They are not

277
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,200
Speaker 1: good for the performer or just no way. I mean,

278
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 1: I totally the only reason I did it because I

279
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,720
Speaker 1: trust Phelipe. I know his audience is hell of fun

280
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 1: and hello dope and hello chill. So I was like,

281
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 1: I'm I know, I'll be fine. I know my material

282
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 1: will be fine. It's just that I'm gonna have to

283
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,760
Speaker 1: talk myself into again what I just said. When I'm

284
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 1: on stage and the audience, I don't have a reaction,

285
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:10,679
Speaker 1: I'll take it out on them, right, and sometimes it's

286
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 1: good and sometimes it's bad. So I had to tell myself,

287
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 1: you're not going to get a reaction period at all,

288
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:20,040
Speaker 1: so you need to not be a bit about it

289
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,879
Speaker 1: to the next joke. So that's what I did, and

290
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 1: it was it wasn't fun, And it was how funny

291
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,359
Speaker 1: because the first night was two hundred cars, which was

292
00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:31,640
Speaker 1: a lot of cars. You kind of only just vibe

293
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:33,440
Speaker 1: off the people in the front row that are sitting

294
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,159
Speaker 1: on their truck beds or if they're sitting outside of

295
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:38,640
Speaker 1: their car or whatever. But the second show is four

296
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 1: hundred cars. Four cars. It's a lot of cars, huge

297
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:48,160
Speaker 1: field of cars. And Felippe's wife after my set, uh

298
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,480
Speaker 1: because from where she was standing, she heard a lot

299
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 1: of laughter. Right, But when you're outside the sound goes up.

300
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:57,920
Speaker 1: It's not going towards me. So I get off stage

301
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:00,720
Speaker 1: and she goes myrself, wasn't this so much more fun

302
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:04,680
Speaker 1: than yesterday? I said, No, it wasn't. It was just

303
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 1: as terrible as it was last night. This ship is

304
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,240
Speaker 1: not fun, but I get it. These people are paying

305
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,360
Speaker 1: a lot of money to be entertained because they want

306
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:14,200
Speaker 1: to get out of the house. So you do your job.

307
00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 1: It's the first time in a long time I'm like,

308
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 1: I'm doing a job, you know, and not my favorite

309
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:24,119
Speaker 1: way to do stand up. Yeah, I mean I can

310
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:26,640
Speaker 1: imagine we're all kind of just adapting, you know, as

311
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 1: as we can. Um. You know you so far you've

312
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 1: mentioned who We Love and Philippe Espasa, you know, and

313
00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 1: you're also a prominent comedian right in the Latin X field,

314
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,879
Speaker 1: in the field in general, where would you say the

315
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:43,119
Speaker 1: current landscape is for Latin X comedy if you can

316
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,199
Speaker 1: even like, is there a landscape? Like is everyone doing

317
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,000
Speaker 1: their own thing? What do you think? What's your opinion?

318
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 1: I think right now it's it's still pretty much how

319
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:56,200
Speaker 1: it's always been. It's either you're fucking doing the classic

320
00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 1: Mexican material, because that's what a lot of the material

321
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:05,120
Speaker 1: in America has been about, you know, um, or you're

322
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:09,960
Speaker 1: doing your thing and you're not being included in the

323
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 1: Latino community, right because you know, you're either fucking us

324
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:16,920
Speaker 1: or you're fucking you're fucking trying to be a thing.

325
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,239
Speaker 1: You know, like it's never you're not allowed to just

326
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 1: be what you are. And I'm I'm thankful that like

327
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,440
Speaker 1: Ider Rodriguez is out there, you know, doing her fucking thing,

328
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 1: being a fucking loud and proud Latina and and helping

329
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 1: pave the way. But you know that also took Tiffany

330
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:37,639
Speaker 1: Hattish bringing her up, giving her special, because we know

331
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:39,880
Speaker 1: that I wasn't gonna get a special from these fucking

332
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 1: white people. They weren't gonna everyone the way she talks,

333
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:43,880
Speaker 1: this is not I mean the way I talk. I'm

334
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:47,199
Speaker 1: not funding Galina right now, and so that's just the

335
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 1: way it is. So it's the landscape is interesting because

336
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 1: it's it's literally a landscape. It's just it's a wide

337
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 1: field of a lot of people doing a lot of

338
00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:59,160
Speaker 1: different things, but it's still very divided. It's still very

339
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 1: we either look Latino or you don't. And then according

340
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,399
Speaker 1: to that, they're gonna put you where they think you

341
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:11,120
Speaker 1: should be. And that's what's frustrating, because it's like there's

342
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 1: a lot of comedians who are very good who aren't

343
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 1: getting the recognition they deserve because they're not doing, you know,

344
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:21,920
Speaker 1: material that appeals to the Latino audience that the the

345
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 1: gatekeepers feel like they needs to be, you know, addressed.

346
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 1: When it's like Latina, we like everything, we like all

347
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 1: the things. We I was talking to somebody recently about how,

348
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 1: especially with Latinos, we we because she this girl just

349
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 1: got a really nice, great position at a bright, shining

350
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 1: new company and they're doing great. She's doing great, but

351
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,080
Speaker 1: she was tripping, you know, because she was like I

352
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,240
Speaker 1: just as as Latina, like, I feel very uncomfortable and

353
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 1: it's hard for me, and I'm scared, and i feel

354
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,920
Speaker 1: like I have imposter syndrome. I'm like, why why you're

355
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:56,120
Speaker 1: in You're in the comedy world. She's not a comedian,

356
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 1: but she's in the comedy world. And I'm like, as

357
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:03,160
Speaker 1: as Latino, we've had to consume white mainstream media, We've

358
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 1: had to consume black mainstream media, and we've consumed the

359
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:11,960
Speaker 1: fucking Latino. We even't consumed Sabel, though he got their

360
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:16,359
Speaker 1: whole lives. We've consumed our ship and their ship, and

361
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 1: then somehow we're not allowed to be in any of it,

362
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:21,480
Speaker 1: you know, especially if you start dabbling on one side

363
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,679
Speaker 1: or the other, right, but we are sometimes more qualified

364
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 1: than ain't anybody because especially in that position that she's in,

365
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 1: where it's like she gets to say what is funny

366
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,360
Speaker 1: and what's good because she has consumed so much over

367
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:38,840
Speaker 1: the years from all the cultures, all the backgrounds, especially

368
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 1: in mainstream which for the most part, in mainstream American

369
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:44,879
Speaker 1: entertainment is just white and black, and really has been

370
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,719
Speaker 1: predominantly white because very black in the nineties, but then

371
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 1: that fucking disappeared and now starting to come back to

372
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 1: be Hella black helldo a lot of the great ship

373
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 1: for them, which is sucking, exciting and cool. We support it.

374
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 1: And then there's us where people are still like treating

375
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,080
Speaker 1: us like it's the fucking indies. They're saying. I mean, look,

376
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,680
Speaker 1: I'm excited about that Selena series on Netflix, but it's

377
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 1: like there's other latina's ye that have done great ship,

378
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,959
Speaker 1: great ship. We We've we got all the series on her,

379
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:16,919
Speaker 1: you know, absolutely, how any more series on white Latinas

380
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 1: do we need? Not more? But I just unsell my

381
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 1: own show, I think so well, you know, I like

382
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,479
Speaker 1: definitely like hear what you're saying, because I am like

383
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:32,439
Speaker 1: someone that consumes Latin X media, but I wouldn't what

384
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 1: what you consider like the slapstick Latin X comedy is

385
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,439
Speaker 1: not what appeals to me. So I'm always looking for

386
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: something like, well, that's not really my humor, you know,

387
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,280
Speaker 1: And so I'm trying to find my own lane of

388
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 1: what do I like and how can I consume it?

389
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:46,280
Speaker 1: How can I support the comedians that are doing what

390
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:49,880
Speaker 1: I like? Yeah, but that's what's tough is that there's

391
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 1: so much out there, and for us there's there's limited

392
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,080
Speaker 1: right not just as consumers, but as as performers, as

393
00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 1: as as entertainers, and so it's it's just gets really

394
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 1: tricky because you you want to support everyone, but everyone

395
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 1: doesn't want to support you, you know. That's that's what

396
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 1: sucks about being especially And I don't know because I'm

397
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:14,639
Speaker 1: first generation. So when I was a kid, you know,

398
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:18,680
Speaker 1: I was learning English, and I was like, let's consume

399
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 1: all the humor that we can because in our household,

400
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 1: we love to laugh, of course, so we would consume

401
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:26,919
Speaker 1: so much. Like we weren't allowed to watch sm NOL,

402
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 1: but we could watch and Living Color, you know, we

403
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,879
Speaker 1: would watch all those goofy as eighties movies we were

404
00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:38,200
Speaker 1: I got so much diversity and comedic entertainment that it

405
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 1: like blows my mind that it's still so fucking separated,

406
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,120
Speaker 1: you know, because it's like we can all, we can

407
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,200
Speaker 1: all be in this, but it just it just doesn't

408
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:50,359
Speaker 1: work that way, which sucks, but it should, alright, y'all.

409
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:52,440
Speaker 1: So today we're excited to talk about one of our

410
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:56,240
Speaker 1: favorite brands that we've had the pleasure of working with, Quip,

411
00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:00,199
Speaker 1: And today we're gonna be talking about flossing. Do you

412
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 1: ever floss on the go? Do you ever floss in

413
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 1: between work meetings, especially now zoom meetings when you're eating

414
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,399
Speaker 1: something quick? And did you know this shocked me that

415
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 1: only one out of every two people brush twice a

416
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 1: day and the same goals for flossing regularly. What type

417
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 1: of person are you? Well, I definitely like to brush

418
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:21,919
Speaker 1: my teeth twice a day. I could do better on

419
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,399

00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:43,040
Speaker 1: look at quip better oral health made simple. I've been

443
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 1: watching binging all the news, all the old shows that

444
00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 1: they've put back on Netflix now, like I've I've been

445
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:51,120
Speaker 1: watching Sister Sister and Half in Half one on one

446
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 1: and Militia, Girlfriends, Girlfriends, and it's so true like and

447
00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,879
Speaker 1: in particular representations of Black women in these different sorts

448
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:04,439
Speaker 1: of sitcom. And what I marvel at definitely is like,

449
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:07,639
Speaker 1: I have so much respect for Black Hollywood and the

450
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 1: way that they've built for themselves and for each other

451
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 1: and put one another on. And I wish that in

452
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:18,560
Speaker 1: Latin X spaces there wasn't such a desire to aspire

453
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 1: to whiteness and blending into whiteness. Because we've had our

454
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:25,560
Speaker 1: big superstars, like we can look back and look at

455
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,480
Speaker 1: the j Los into this and that. What have they

456
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:32,159
Speaker 1: sort of created for the next generation? Which exactly, And

457
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,440
Speaker 1: that's the problem. That's the problem. And it goes back

458
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:39,200
Speaker 1: to because, um, when when that list came out about

459
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:41,440
Speaker 1: Latin I there's no Latin X showrunners and that list

460
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:42,879
Speaker 1: that came out, it's a bunch of a bunch of

461
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,720
Speaker 1: different backgrounds, but apparently no latinos. Right. But I'm curious,

462
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:51,520
Speaker 1: like who's helping the latin X showrunners, because like, Okay,

463
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,480
Speaker 1: I don't want to talk to anybody, but there's quite

464
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,840
Speaker 1: a few Latinos and Latinos that have their own shows

465
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,440
Speaker 1: or or in projects, and it's like, how are they

466
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:03,640
Speaker 1: not lift being up our people? It's great to lift

467
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 1: up everyone else. I totally think we should, but it's like,

468
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,200
Speaker 1: how do you not see behind the camera that there

469
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:12,239
Speaker 1: isn't your own people? And how it just it just

470
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,920
Speaker 1: shocks me. It fucking shocks me, because you're totally right,

471
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:19,719
Speaker 1: that's that's part of the problem, and it's truly exhausting

472
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,200
Speaker 1: to do that work, because that was the thing about

473
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,160
Speaker 1: women Crush Wednesdays. It was it came from that that

474
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:30,040
Speaker 1: place of like how am I trying? Like I'm trying

475
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 1: to do comedy and and work in diverse places, but

476
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 1: people aren't allowing me to. I have to be the

477
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:39,240
Speaker 1: only woman on the show, I have to be the

478
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 1: only Latino, or I can only do Latino shows, or

479
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 1: I have on the token this or whatever. And I

480
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:47,120
Speaker 1: hated that because I was like, there's so many funny women,

481
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:48,959
Speaker 1: why can't we all be hunish not all of us

482
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,480
Speaker 1: be on a show? But how often there was especially

483
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:54,680
Speaker 1: fifteen years ago there was six guys and and one

484
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,680
Speaker 1: woman on a show, and and then and back then,

485
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,439
Speaker 1: it was like it's you and Ali Wa and we

486
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:02,360
Speaker 1: already got Ali Wong, so you'll do the next one.

487
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 1: And I'm like, why can't we both be on the

488
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:07,159
Speaker 1: same show? What if I'm not available next month? Like

489
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:09,359
Speaker 1: the ship don't make no fucking sense? And I had that.

490
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:11,240
Speaker 1: I had someone say that to me recently about a

491
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,719
Speaker 1: Latino show. We're doing this Latino show, and I was like, Oh,

492
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:16,720
Speaker 1: I'm unavailable, and he goes, all right, we'll get you

493
00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:18,159
Speaker 1: on the next one. And then I came back like

494
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,600
Speaker 1: a few days later, like, hey, I'm available now can

495
00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: I still do that show? Did you already feel the spot?

496
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:23,960
Speaker 1: And he goes, oh, we already have a woman on

497
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 1: the show. And I was like what what? I was like,

498
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:30,200
Speaker 1: you have one woman on the show and I can't

499
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,520
Speaker 1: be on the show now, Like like the Latinos are

500
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 1: still doing the bullshit that was happening fifteen years ago

501
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 1: in the white spaces, and now the white spaces are

502
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 1: trying to be more diverse. They're not great at it,

503
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 1: but they're trying. I saw all that ship, And that's

504
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 1: part of what Women Crushed was was I was trying

505
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:45,880
Speaker 1: to put the work because I was like, there's funny

506
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:49,920
Speaker 1: women everywhere, and because the comedy seems so segregated. But

507
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:53,120
Speaker 1: I was like, I can I can see all because

508
00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:54,680
Speaker 1: I would go to all the scenes. I would that

509
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 1: was you know, that's what comedy as you do, all

510
00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,160
Speaker 1: the scenes, you do, all the shows, you do all

511
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 1: the stages. That's what I would do. And I'd be like,

512
00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 1: I want her on my next show. I want I

513
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 1: want her, I want her, I want her. I want

514
00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 1: her in every space because I know that there's enough

515
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 1: and there's also space for lifting up the people that

516
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 1: are coming up. Okay, you don't have ten minutes, bitch,

517
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:15,719
Speaker 1: but you got a decent five. I'm gonna give you

518
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 1: five minutes, and you gotta rock that ship. I even

519
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 1: remember telling one white girl she fucking did terrible on

520
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:24,400
Speaker 1: my show. I almost didn't rebook her because I was like,

521
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 1: but I knew that the set that she sent in

522
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 1: was really funny. So I rebooked her like a year

523
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 1: later because I'm like, all right, she'll probably, you know,

524
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 1: have a little more experience by then. And she came

525
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 1: and she fucking crushed it. And I told her straight up,

526
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:40,200
Speaker 1: because I'm sometimes too honest for my own good. I

527
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:42,320
Speaker 1: was like, girl, you know what, I almost didn't rebook

528
00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 1: you because you did so bad on the first show.

529
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:46,600
Speaker 1: I was like, but you killed it tonight. She was like,

530
00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 1: you know what. I was so nervous. I had never

531
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,360
Speaker 1: performed at the Hollywood Improv. That was my first time

532
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 1: performing in a comedy club. She was like, I was

533
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:55,880
Speaker 1: so nervous that I that I did I ate ship

534
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 1: And I was like, oh, I forget, I forget that

535
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 1: I'm actually handing up her unities. Two people and they're

536
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,680
Speaker 1: getting seen because at my show they would always be

537
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 1: industry watching. And it's one of those things where it's

538
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 1: like when even when you do the work and you

539
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 1: have somebody sucks it up, that doesn't mean that you

540
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 1: shouldn't give them the chance. You know, you gotta keep

541
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 1: keep keep trying and trying because we're all in this

542
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:16,960
Speaker 1: for the long or hopefully we're all those in this

543
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:20,920
Speaker 1: for the long run. But with that, I do agree

544
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,239
Speaker 1: that Latino they gonna be pulling each other up in

545
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:26,640
Speaker 1: every direction, you know. Yeah, And this is fascinating to

546
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,560
Speaker 1: me too, because any chance I get to shoot on

547
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:32,680
Speaker 1: men in the community, I will take it right so,

548
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 1: because part of what I'm hearing is that the o

549
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:39,520
Speaker 1: G comedy gate keepers, who probably are the ones most

550
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 1: likely to create opportunities, have been like older cheek on

551
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:45,880
Speaker 1: on men. I'm thinking, you know, the Paul Rodriguez is

552
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:49,080
Speaker 1: and the cheeches and the chongs and the George Lopez

553
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 1: and then this and that, like we know who they are,

554
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,719
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, And especially kind of like

555
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,240
Speaker 1: the way that this coincides with the me Too movement

556
00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 1: and knowing how comedy guys have been really garbage just

557
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 1: women historically. Can we blame Latino men in particular for

558
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 1: the sorry state of comedy today? I think so, you know,

559
00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 1: and I got it. That's another shout. I gotta give

560
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 1: it to Felipe that motherfucker loves having at least a

561
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:17,360
Speaker 1: woman on the show. One woman sometimes too, if you know,

562
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 1: because you know when you have a three person show,

563
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 1: you know, he has his his um host, that motherfucker's

564
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,160
Speaker 1: been hosting him for him for years. Rodrigo Torre's shout

565
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 1: out to him. It's funny, but he's like, that's the host,

566
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 1: so he'll have a middle act and then Felipe right,

567
00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 1: so he does. He tries to put a woman on

568
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 1: the show and tries to have her. He wants features,

569
00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 1: he wants women that are so funny that they can

570
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 1: go on second and he's really good at it. He's

571
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:43,400
Speaker 1: giving a lot of opportunities to a lot of women,

572
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:45,480
Speaker 1: and not just Latina's, you know, but he is. He's

573
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 1: very much like on the radar, who is a funny

574
00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 1: woman that is Latina. And God bless him because I

575
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,080
Speaker 1: know for a fact that that motherfucker looked at the

576
00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 1: past and was like, why aren't we helping each other?

577
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 1: You know? And he's doing it. So that's the thing.

578
00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:00,480
Speaker 1: It does take people to help others because I know

579
00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:04,840
Speaker 1: my audience has expanded um through him. But I will

580
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 1: say also that these men that are in power, even

581
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:11,600
Speaker 1: if it is just bookers in the middle of fu Usa,

582
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 1: like I had. Okay, one time I was opening for

583
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 1: Philippe and I was driving to the gig with a

584
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:21,680
Speaker 1: friend who I've known for years. Me and him, super homies,

585
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 1: hell of funny Latino. I love him, And when we're

586
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,160
Speaker 1: driving to the show, he's like, I can't wait for

587
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 1: you to meet this This book or you know, such

591
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:36,960
Speaker 1: make a lot of money working with him. And then

592
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 1: I go, we'll see. He kind of got offended. He

593
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:41,000
Speaker 1: was like, what do you mean we'll see. I'm telling

594
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 1: you he's dope. I'm telling you he's cool. I'm telling

596
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 1: So get to the show. And we were doing to

597
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 1: shows like two nights, two different cities. I mean this home,

598
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:57,240
Speaker 1: we were sharing hotels, we were driving together, right and um,

599
00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 1: So we get to the first show and this booker

600
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 1: is upset that this full Chris my friend is having

601
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 1: to go on before me. Why is she going on

602
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:14,800
Speaker 1: before you? That's disrespectful what he tells Chris. And Chris

603
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,440
Speaker 1: is like, whoa buddy, you know, like she's really funny.

604
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 1: You have to trust Philippe. Felippe has her going on

605
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:22,800
Speaker 1: as a feature because she is fucking funny. You have

606
00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:26,440
Speaker 1: to trust Felippe. He goes, I just think it's disrespectful.

00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:35,520
Speaker 1: when he did it. And Phelippe even said, is all

610
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:38,960
Speaker 1: the money there? And I said nope, and anyway, but

611
00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:41,920
Speaker 1: that whatever, I got my money whatever. But it was

612
00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:44,320
Speaker 1: the same guy, which is the character that this person is.

613
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:48,240
Speaker 1: So then this full the second night, I think we

614
00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 1: like get switched or something because it's full. I don't

615
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:55,120
Speaker 1: remember what happened, what happens? What the really the real

616
00:33:55,200 --> 00:34:00,400
Speaker 1: story is this motherfucker was so upset that this Chris

617
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:03,640
Speaker 1: friend of mine, he's known him for years, He's never

618
00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 1: heard of me, So why would I go on after him.

619
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:09,640
Speaker 1: He's so upset that he's going on before me, that

620
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:12,960
Speaker 1: he's getting paid less to me, This booker pays my

621
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:16,440
Speaker 1: friend out of his pocket extra money because he feels

622
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:20,319
Speaker 1: so disrespected on behalf of this full Chris. Isn't that

623
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:24,120
Speaker 1: fucking crazy? Because of me? Because of me and ps

624
00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:27,239
Speaker 1: I crushed these shows. The man's wife came up to

625
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:29,359
Speaker 1: me and was like, you're so fucking funny girl. Oh

626
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:32,560
Speaker 1: my god. Everyone loved me. People were coming up to me.

627
00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 1: It didn't matter. He didn't care, and he just you know,

628
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:39,719
Speaker 1: traditional chic got oh my cheese more bullshit. But I'll

629
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:43,319
Speaker 1: always remember that, like, you're you're my people, you're at

630
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 1: my back, and you don't. You're you're fucking trying to

631
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:49,160
Speaker 1: put me down, trying to make an awkwarry between me

632
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 1: and my friend. It's not fucking crazy paid amount of

633
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:55,840
Speaker 1: his own money, that's ridiculous, but it's like some intense

634
00:34:55,920 --> 00:35:00,279
Speaker 1: commitment to the patriarchy because I keep the get like,

635
00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,480
Speaker 1: Damn Philippe is trying to uplift a woman to the

636
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:05,080
Speaker 1: point where she's getting paid more than the other openers,

637
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:07,719
Speaker 1: and this fool is like, nah, man, that's not how

638
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:14,279
Speaker 1: we do things. What a question? Has this ever had

639
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:20,319
Speaker 1: a woman performed before you? No? Oh? Like ever, who wait,

640
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:25,880
Speaker 1: who are you talking about? Like the comedian friend Chris Chris? Yeah,

641
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 1: like or the guy that was upset, Like, has a

642
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:32,960
Speaker 1: woman performed before him? Like a comedian, he's just a

643
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:37,680
Speaker 1: guy that runs shows. This is a motherfucker that has

644
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 1: access to providing income for other people. He's yeah, I mean,

645
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 1: it's like, it's crazy. It's crazy to think about that ship.

646
00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 1: It's also crazy because you know, uh, prop sixteen, it's

647
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:52,680
Speaker 1: a prop sixteen. Yeah, that it's it's reversing that, um

648
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:55,120
Speaker 1: how they struck down in firm and of action with

649
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:59,319
Speaker 1: Prop two nine, And so we're voting on that for

650
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,600
Speaker 1: this election, and you vote yes to repeal that because

651
00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:05,920
Speaker 1: we should give opportunities to everyone. But I just keep

652
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 1: thinking about how um people go out of their way

653
00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:15,640
Speaker 1: to do so much discriminating And it's like, how often

654
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:19,240
Speaker 1: does that man get discriminated against. It's like he's passing

655
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:22,279
Speaker 1: that bullshit down. He doesn't see how fucking terrible it is,

656
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,759
Speaker 1: and he's doing it to his own people, which makes

657
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:26,719
Speaker 1: me wonder what the funk he's doing to other people? How?

658
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:28,480
Speaker 1: How does he see black people? How does he see

659
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,400
Speaker 1: white people better than he obviously sees men and women

660
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:36,520
Speaker 1: as completely two different species. It's fucking crazy. I'm really

661
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:42,920
Speaker 1: upset now, right, It's so true. It's like we're expected

662
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,680
Speaker 1: to like take the brunt of that because oh, the

663
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:48,839
Speaker 1: Latino men, the Latinos are getting discriminated again. So then

664
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,120
Speaker 1: they come and you know, want to puns it up

665
00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 1: for us, right, I try to us and harm us, bucket,

666
00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:57,920
Speaker 1: you know, it's crazy. It also tells me though, like

667
00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:01,680
Speaker 1: if that's like one example, bowl of one gate keeper

668
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:04,480
Speaker 1: and then at like a taste maker in some ways

669
00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:09,359
Speaker 1: because exactly he's choosing lineups and things. So how does

670
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 1: the actual comedy and the show suffer when fools like

671
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:17,480
Speaker 1: that are the ones deciding who's performing and exactly. And

672
00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:20,319
Speaker 1: then think about the audience, because if say the three

673
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:21,960
Speaker 1: of us were like, oh, we're gonna go to the

674
00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:24,840
Speaker 1: they have monthly comedy shows, let's just go because we

675
00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:27,040
Speaker 1: just want to go see comedy. And then because that

676
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:30,520
Speaker 1: motherfucker is the one book in these shows, imagine the

677
00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 1: bullshit we're watching right watching fucking, straight up carbon bullshit

678
00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:40,839
Speaker 1: comedians because this fool doesn't think women are funny, doesn't

679
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:44,160
Speaker 1: think you know what I mean, No taste, no taste,

680
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:50,520
Speaker 1: no taste. It's a it's a trickle down effect. And

681
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:53,839
Speaker 1: that's why it's so frustrating, because I also think about

682
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:56,760
Speaker 1: how often I've gotten messages from comedians in the past

683
00:37:56,840 --> 00:38:01,399
Speaker 1: that you know, stayed where they were, um, didn't keep going, uh,

684
00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 1: only dabble with it now, And how often I get

685
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:06,120
Speaker 1: messages from people like that in the past that are like,

686
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:08,399
Speaker 1: you are I can't believe you're still doing it. You're

687
00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:10,840
Speaker 1: so strong. This game is really fucking hard. There's so

688
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,600
Speaker 1: much people don't know, and you're still doing it. You're

689
00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:15,200
Speaker 1: still trying to make people laugh, You're still trying to

690
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:16,919
Speaker 1: have a message, You're still trying to like do your

691
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,919
Speaker 1: and still be you and still be happy. And I'm

692
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,520
Speaker 1: always like, yeah, you're right, she fucking I am strong.

693
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:27,840
Speaker 1: This ship it sucks. Yeah, I mean absolutely, speaking of

Speaker 1: I love him, Yes, And I love how that comes

741
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:50,360
Speaker 1: out in your comedy and in The Woke Bully is

742
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:53,279
Speaker 1: definitely infused in there, which I always appreciate. You know

743
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:55,440
Speaker 1: What's funny because I don't consider myself a hip hop head.

744
00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:57,400
Speaker 1: I've always said I'm a hip hop little sister because

745
00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:00,200
Speaker 1: you know, like I learned from my brothers, you know,

746
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:02,320
Speaker 1: because I wasn't like super into the hip hop or

747
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:04,600
Speaker 1: rap when I was young. And you know what, did

748
00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:08,799
Speaker 1: you guys read the Mariah Carey book. Yeah, it's I

749
00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:11,000
Speaker 1: really want to listen to it as an audio book

750
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:16,560
Speaker 1: because it's it's a lot childhood stuff is a lot.

751
00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:20,520
Speaker 1: I read that section hell is slow and uh, and

752
00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:23,200
Speaker 1: apparently when she's reading it, she gets very emotional, like

753
00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:27,279
Speaker 1: holding it back emotionally that kind of thing. So I'm

754
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:29,400
Speaker 1: actually saving the audio. I'm gonna listen to the audio

755
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:31,560
Speaker 1: book on a long trip um when I can just

756
00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:35,680
Speaker 1: like cry alone in the car um and yeah that

757
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 1: that she is so good. But she she you know,

758
00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:40,520
Speaker 1: I loved her as a kid, and my sister loved her.

759
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:42,520
Speaker 1: We still I still have all the CDs from from

760
00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:46,280
Speaker 1: when we were kids, and she has this great little

761
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:50,319
Speaker 1: uh section. I won't spoil it, but she just talks

762
00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:53,480
Speaker 1: about how she loved having rappers in her in her

763
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:56,680
Speaker 1: all of her songs, which we know, but I keep thinking, like, damn.

764
00:41:56,719 --> 00:41:58,880
Speaker 1: I think she was probably one of the reasons I

765
00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:02,120
Speaker 1: was able to transit into like really appreciating rapping hip

766
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:05,120
Speaker 1: hop because I was like, we love Mariah. My brothers were,

767
00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:07,680
Speaker 1: of course, were obsessed with the woutang, so like when

768
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:10,520
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, when the worlds collided, you're just like, Okay,

769
00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:12,200
Speaker 1: I guess we can all listen to this and then

770
00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:14,359
Speaker 1: it kind of like you start bleeding into the other ship.

771
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,479
Speaker 1: And I mean I was, I was an older team

772
00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:19,560
Speaker 1: when I got into wrapping hip hop, but yeah, I

773
00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,120
Speaker 1: mean I do. I always find it fascinating when people

774
00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:23,960
Speaker 1: consider me a hip hop app but I guess I do.

775
00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:28,959
Speaker 1: I do know more than the average person. But yeah,

776
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:32,239
Speaker 1: I do love hip hop. Yeah, and I appreciate, you know,

777
00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:35,239
Speaker 1: seeing those parts of your personality come out, especially going

778
00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:37,840
Speaker 1: back to this idea of like Latina was in comedy

779
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:39,920
Speaker 1: and what are the jokes about? And what's funny? And

780
00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:44,240
Speaker 1: I will scream at the next like Latina comedian whose

781
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:47,880
Speaker 1: punchlines are just putting on a Spanish accent, Like the

782
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:50,720
Speaker 1: accent itself is the punchline. Honestly, I hate that ship.

783
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:55,000
Speaker 1: And it's so overdone. It's accents alone or not funny.

784
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:56,880
Speaker 1: And today I was having lunch and I had, of

785
00:42:56,880 --> 00:43:08,439
Speaker 1: course cheatas you right, and that's it, and I'm joking, yeah, yeah,

786
00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:16,920
Speaker 1: we're done like whatevers. I mean, miha, And I was like, Mama,

787
00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:22,280
Speaker 1: that's exactly what we're talking about. I mean, and we

788
00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:24,920
Speaker 1: we get like we've had men on our I g lives,

789
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:27,600
Speaker 1: like talk about the way we talk, right, because we

790
00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:32,359
Speaker 1: don't sound like, what what their ideas Latinas sound like

791
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:34,920
Speaker 1: exactly because we're not sucking saying hot cheetos and mi

792
00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:40,760
Speaker 1: ha or not Latinas. It's also funny too because I also, uh,

793
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:45,640
Speaker 1: because mama, you're what your third generation? Right? Yeah? Yeah,

794
00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:48,480

00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:02,800
Speaker 1: will they'll they'll they when they come to booking stuff,

799
00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:06,480
Speaker 1: they would rather have someone that looks like Mala, like Lydia,

800
00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:09,319
Speaker 1: because they're like, oh, she looks Latina And then they're like,

811
00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:49,120
Speaker 1: like the visual experience is what people are really trying

812
00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:51,279
Speaker 1: to consume right now, which is why it goes back

813
