1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:03,000 Speaker 1: Welcome to another episode of Eating While Broke. Today, I 2 00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:06,960 Speaker 1: have a personal friend, executive producer walling out now Evans 3 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:10,479 Speaker 1: here joining us, spilling the teeth on what life was like, uh, 4 00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:13,160 Speaker 1: from the beginning all the way to the executive producing 5 00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 1: walling out problem. What are we cooking today? Today? We're 6 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:43,600 Speaker 1: cooking eggs and toast, old school, uh broke classic from me. 7 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 1: You know, I still eat it to this day, but 8 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:49,200 Speaker 1: I love it. And this was the get through meal, 9 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 1: you know, through all of my life. Yes, and it's 10 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 1: definitely affordable. I think this whole meal out of pocket 11 00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 1: was exactly five dollars. Definitely can last you a couple 12 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: of meals all day long. I can eat this all 13 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 1: day long. I can eat it every meal, breakfast, breakfast 14 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,399 Speaker 1: for dinner. And another note is that when we were 15 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:10,040 Speaker 1: talking about doing this show, I remember you talking about 16 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: hacking the box tacos and all the shortcuts by just 17 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,320 Speaker 1: eating fast food. But this actually priced out to be 18 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,839 Speaker 1: cheaper than hacking the box. Yeah, it does it does 19 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 1: you know? Hack in the box? You gotta you know, 20 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 1: they make it so you can go in there, boom, 21 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:26,479 Speaker 1: get your two tacos for a dollar and you're good 22 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: but this requires you to have, you know, something to 23 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 1: to make it on. So I think hack in the 24 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 1: boxes is on the go broke. This is in the 25 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: house broke, all right, So walk us through the all right. 26 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 1: So you got your your toast, your semi whole week toast, 27 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 1: because you don't want the whole wee grainy stuff one. 28 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 1: It's gonna cost you too much. You know, you don't 29 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: want to spend four dollars for a loaf of grainny 30 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 1: nutty ass bread, so you get the almost wheat um. 31 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 1: Then we have our eggs, you know, brown, free range. 32 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: I'm sure we don't really care. They're just eggs. Hopefully 33 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 1: there's not a baby chicken off in there. So we're 34 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 1: making beloat. No, that's a Filipino joker anyway. So we 35 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: got our cheese. You know, it looks like it's prepackaged mixed. 36 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:18,079 Speaker 1: That's like the Mexican in the bag cheese. Whatever cheese 37 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: you rock with, whether it's uh, you know, American, whether 38 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 1: it's Government, whether it's Monterey Jack, whatever, whatever you're rocking with, 39 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:28,519 Speaker 1: that's you know, that requires you not to have to 40 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 1: grate for an hour, you know what I mean? Um, 41 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: any kind of green sauce for me if I So 42 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 1: the variation on this is tacos. So if let's say 43 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:44,960 Speaker 1: you don't have any bread my household, we always have tortillas. Tortillas, 44 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: throw a little grease in the pan, boom, crisp them up, 45 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 1: and now you got egg tacos. So eggs on toast, 46 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 1: eggs on tacos. Actually, I'm originally from l A. I'm 47 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 1: originally from l A. I'm listen, I'm I'm old O 48 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 1: g l A, which which makes me almost Mexican. So, um, 49 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: you know, hopefully I'm not going to get canceled for 50 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 1: saying that I'm almost Mexican. It's it's just a joke. Uh. 51 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: And so you know, I've lived around uh Latino culture 52 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: for a long time and everywhere you go in to 53 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,920 Speaker 1: l A's tacos, so you know, nothing better than an 54 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: egg taco if it's not gonna be on toast, So 55 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,639 Speaker 1: why don't you whip us up some breakfast? Essentially, that's 56 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: what we're having. And I forgot this alt pepper, so 57 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: we're gonna do wow. I don't know how wow, no 58 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: season and hum, that's what we're doing while eating my 59 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: broke that's broke. Eating right there when there's no seasoning. Okay, 60 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: I so we're just want to ex scramble. Can I 61 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 1: get I've never had you want? You want to rock 62 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: with the tortilla. Let's do it. Do you have any grease? 63 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: But no, I mean you don't really make tortillas with butter. 64 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: We can know I can do that because we're broke, 65 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 1: do it. That's what we're gonna do. But it's all good. 66 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: We could pause, we could get the oil for you. 67 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 1: I mean that would help a season, that could help 68 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 1: you know. We're gonna take a quick break. You guys, 69 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 1: get your commercials break. We're back from finding the salt 70 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: pepper oil and all the missing ingredients for Nole's cooking 71 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: meal for today. All of a sudden, we have salt pepper, 72 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 1: which is very embarrassing on my part. So while you 73 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 1: live these eggs. Uh And ironically we are taping in 74 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 1: the morning. So this is my second breakfast of the day. 75 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: Everybody go um, But luckily it's it's a breakfast that 76 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 1: I'm accustomed to eating. Yeah, So right now I'm heating 77 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 1: up the I'm gonna heat up this pan so that 78 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: we can quickly fry these tortires because it only takes 79 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 1: a second to get them crisp. We're gonna, yeah, we're 80 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: gonna do that. While all that's happening. What I'm gonna 81 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: do is I'm gonna whisk up some of these eggs. 82 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: So get a little crack on the eggs. And while 83 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,679 Speaker 1: you're doing that, I'm just curious. When we were talking 84 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 1: about doing this episode, I know we went back and 85 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 1: forth on what your meal was going to be, and 86 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: we talked about eating out, eating fast week, which I've 87 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: done plenty of times. Uh, and then we we ended 88 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 1: up with this. This was your main go to? What 89 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 1: memories were you taken back to? This was your main 90 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 1: go to? Um, this goes back to me and my 91 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 1: mom living in uh, south central l A. You know 92 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,359 Speaker 1: what I mean. Um, that's where that's why I originally 93 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: grew up, um in the eighties, and uh, you know, 94 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: she would always make breakfast for dinner. And I didn't 95 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: know that it was because we didn't really have much, 96 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: but we always had eggs, We always had some bread, 97 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: So you know that's what we did. You never got 98 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: sick of it. No, I could eat that. I could 99 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 1: eat that breakfast lunch and dinner all day, every day 100 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 1: till this day. Um. Because it's a light meal. It's easy, 101 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. If you take out the toast, 102 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: it's a low carb you know what I mean. Um, 103 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: So you throw a little whisk. That's my whisk. Some 104 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: people just do that and I just do what. I'm like, 105 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 1: what are you doing? And you don't add milk and 106 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:27,600 Speaker 1: all the other stuff. Some people add, um, you know, 107 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: sour cream to make them creamy. I saw that on 108 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: a cooking show and I was like, Oh, that's how 109 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,360 Speaker 1: you make them fluffy like that, and they kind of 110 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 1: climb up a little different. But I just go, I 111 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 1: go right for this. But you gotta you gotta throw 112 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 1: a little salt in here. Some people do it after 113 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: I do it. Now, little salt, little pepper. I usually 114 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 1: like to use the ground pepper because I like to 115 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 1: I like that peppery taste. Right there. Hit the whisk. 116 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 1: Check over here. I feel like this is this is 117 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 1: coming along right. You don't throw the green sauce into 118 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: the little mix. That's after. That's after. Okay, that was 119 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 1: that was a dumb question. You want to put right 120 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 1: there because I don't use hot sauce. You don't. I 121 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: don't use hot sauce. You don't use it ever, ever, 122 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 1: not really ever. No, I'm from New York though. I 123 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 1: think that's just the l A thing. L A is 124 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 1: the tackles, and you don't. You're probably chicken. Maybe put 125 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: some honey on it. Anyways, this isn't about me. It's 126 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: how do you go from South Central to executive producer 127 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 1: of walling Out? Um? You get out of South Central, 128 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: you know, I think that's that was the main thing, 129 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: was getting out of South Central. My mother in the eighties, 130 00:07:55,080 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 1: UM had you know, I had an aunt. I lived 131 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 1: in the Bay Area. I went up there for you know, 132 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 1: the summer to spend with my cousin, and it was 133 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 1: just completely different. You know, I didn't have to worry 134 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 1: about getting shot. I don't have to worry about you know, gangsters. Um. 135 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 1: So my mother let me live up there for a 136 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: little while. So I got out of the Bay ended 137 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 1: up going to school there and moved back and forth 138 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: a little bit. Um and then I went to college. 139 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: And you know, when I was going to college, my 140 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 1: uncle was doing the Jamie He was doing the Jamie 141 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: Fox Show when I was in high school, was doing 142 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 1: in high school.

And started working 154 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 1: on the Jamie Fox Show as a production assistant. Yeah. 155 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 1: So how old were you then? I was, I don't know, twenty. 156 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: I think I was twenty something like that. And then, um, 157 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 1: and what was your mom's thoughts when you're like, I'm 158 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 1: gonna drop out in Well, it was it was a 159 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: financial thing. You know, it was a financial thing. So, um, 160 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna need some other tools. Do you have any tongues? 161 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 1: We don't need them. Okay, you don't have any tongues 162 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 1: in the kitchen. Now, ironically, another thing is, uh, we 163 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 1: do there in the back. I've never fried a taco 164 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 1: or fried anything. You've never I've never even fried chicken. Boom, 165 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: So this is all a learning. Then you bring another 166 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:58,199 Speaker 1: one in just to start it to save time, just 167 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 1: so you guys know. I just watched him but heat 168 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,719 Speaker 1: a vegetable oil. Then he put the tortillas in and 169 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 1: folding them like a taco. So this is gonna happen 170 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: really really fast. So boom. Now will that make the 171 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,079 Speaker 1: shells crispy a little bit? And that's what I like. 172 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 1: I've never seen this done in real life, ever, this 173 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: is my first time. Now, if you notice what this 174 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 1: looks like, it looks like that place we talked about 175 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 1: that has ninety cents um tacos, right, so it looks 176 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: kind of similar. Right, Oh yeah it does right. I 177 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 1: can't believe I just learned how to make tacos. Is 178 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 1: your man from l A. No, he's from Detroit. Oh 179 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 1: that's why, because that would probably be a requirement if 180 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 1: he was from l A. You know, I was like, oh, 181 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 1: you don't make tacos, we're gonna have a hard time 182 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 1: being together in life. So he's from Detroit, so he 183 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 1: doesn't really have taste for anything, right, I don't know 184 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 1: that island.

I'm want of those people. 335 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 1: I like to know my eggit cooked.

I don't like him super hard, and I 338 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 1: don't like him, you know, Um, I just like him. 339 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 1: You'll see how to make him. Here we go. I 340 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,400 Speaker 1: would be the judge of this whole meal to there 341 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,399 Speaker 1: it is. So we got tortilla, so we're ready for that. 342 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 1: Um you know, we got this cooking. We'll get these 343 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 1: eggs going, which won't take too long. So you you 344 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 1: went on the road with Nick, Yes, okay. Then after 345 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 1: the road, you guys decide you're going to do the 346 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 1: pilot for a while, and out it gets picked up. 347 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 1: I can't imagine that there was no hiccups on the way. 348 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 1: I mean, you didn't blow your forty grand it was 349 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 1: no I mean, you know, I was at that point, 350 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 1: I was kind of like, you know, I was still struggling, 351 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:52,440 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I think the biggest hiccup 352 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: I would say, I wouldn't call it a hiccup, was 353 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 1: so I'm getting on the road money. So I'm getting 354 00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 1: money from being road manager. Now when I go to 355 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:04,879 Speaker 1: when I have a kid, I said, I'm not going 356 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 1: to do the road, so about of my income goes away. 357 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 1: And now I have the show that could not may 358 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:17,159 Speaker 1: or may not come back. So now I'm I'm in 359 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,399 Speaker 1: risky time. I'm like, oh, I don't know if we're 360 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 1: gonna get a season two. Always think I don't know 361 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 1: if we're gonna get a season two. What do you do? 362 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 1: Did you like like a little? I mean, when you 363 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 1: when you're in entertainment, you have to save money, so 364 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 1: you you might get a little chunk, but you gotta 365 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 1: save it. And because you're not gonna get a weekly check, 366 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:42,919 Speaker 1: so if you're not getting a weekly check, you might 367 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: get a lump sum and you gotta make that stretch 368 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 1: until the next show or whatever else you're doing. So 369 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 1: it's a risky time. So, you know, and I got 370 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:56,640 Speaker 1: a kid, you know what I mean. So it's it's 371 00:21:56,720 --> 00:22:01,120 Speaker 1: it's definitely a risky time. So I'm gonna put these 372 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: off right here. While this is going, I am going 373 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 1: to put this here. I'm gonna drop said toast. Hopefully 374 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 1: it's not too toasty and burns, so I'm gonna lighten 375 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:20,639 Speaker 1: it up, making light skinned toast. Um, where where was I? 376 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 1: You were talking about stretching your money, So yeah, you 377 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:28,600 Speaker 1: gotta stretch your money. So there were times where you know, 378 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 1: I have a kid, and you know whether they're gonna 379 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: do season two or not. I'm like, oh, okay, I 380 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,640 Speaker 1: got a little bit of money, but you know things 381 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:44,800 Speaker 1: are thin. Are you thinking backup plan? Day job? Nah? Nah? 382 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,920 Speaker 1: You know why because what I learned about trying to 383 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:51,159 Speaker 1: have a backup plan is you're not focused on the 384 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 1: one thing. It's like, I'm doing production, I'm gonna be 385 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 1: a writer, I'm gonna do something in this business. Like 386 00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: if you have a backup plan, like you're gonna fall 387 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 1: back on that. I was like, this is I'm all in. 388 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:08,440 Speaker 1: I gotta do something like there's no oh, I'm gonna 389 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:12,360 Speaker 1: work at FedEx Taco Bell to do whatever. Now, it's 390 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 1: always good to have a side hustle, but I think 391 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 1: everyone should have a side hustle. Candle crack. Yeah, it's 392 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:26,119 Speaker 1: considered a side hustle. So you know, I started a 393 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 1: candle company. I'm was writing a book about a hundreds 394 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 1: of central things that make you a grown ass man 395 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,680 Speaker 1: and um that's the name of the book and it's 396 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 1: you have to be put out. But um, you know 397 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,399 Speaker 1: in the book, I said, every man should have candles 398 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 1: in this house because one dudes houses, you've been to 399 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 1: a guy's house before one, they don't always smell good. 400 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 1: My husband always kept candles by the way, right, that's 401 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 1: how That's how he bagged you. So my thing is 402 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 1: like this, what dude, when you walk in and has 403 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,959 Speaker 1: five candles lit? If a dude has five candles lit, 404 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: it should just be like automatically, I want you different 405 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 1: five I gotta give them. So like it's like what 406 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 1: due does that? And I was like, I want to 407 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 1: be that what dude that when they come into my 408 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 1: house they go, oh, it smells so fresh? What does 409 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 1: that tell a woman? Oh? I feel comfortable. I'm comfortable. 410 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: This is nice, the house is clean and smells good. 411 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 1: This is what this is what it's all about. Toast 412 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 1: is ready, light skinned? Kay? Not burnt light skin toast. 413 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 1: So uh, so I started this so uh you know, 414 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 1: I used to buy candles, and candles were candles are expensive, 415 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 1: so I took a class and learn how to make them, 416 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,440 Speaker 1: a sixty dollar class. I learned how to make them, 417 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:56,000 Speaker 1: and that was it. I posted the ones that I 418 00:24:56,160 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 1: made on Instagram. It went crazy and that was it. 419 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 1: And I got some labels made and started a company 420 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 1: and that was now. You would say that's more of 421 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 1: a hobby than a hustle or both. It's a hobby 422 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 1: that can make money, so it's a side hustle, little hobby. 423 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,639 Speaker 1: So I always feel like this. You should always do 424 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 1: something that makes you happy, and if you can monetize that, 425 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 1: that's even better. Like people go to work all the 426 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 1: time and they hate their job, Like these cameramen, they 427 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 1: love what they do because this is the business that 428 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 1: they probably always wanted to be in. You're not a 429 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:34,360 Speaker 1: cameraman because you go, oh, man, I couldn't find anything else. 430 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 1: This is what you want to do. Either you want 431 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 1: to director, you want to do whatever. Now I have 432 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 1: to note on this eggs and toast. You go to 433 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 1: the edge with the butter. You don't just overhead came 434 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: to the edge. You don't just hit it slop boom. 435 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 1: It's got to be moist on every corner because you 436 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:56,920 Speaker 1: know the corners and the edges of the parts of 437 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:00,640 Speaker 1: We're gonna win them up so you get them all 438 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 1: the way to the corner so that every bite is 439 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:06,320 Speaker 1: the right bite. I feel like if you ever made 440 00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 1: a sandwich, I would want to eat all you would. 441 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 1: So I want you to take that piece of toast. Boom, 442 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:17,119 Speaker 1: that's your piece of toast. Now, this is what people 443 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 1: don't know about seasoning. The butter is seasoned because it 444 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 1: has salt in it. Yeah, you want to give it 445 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:31,119 Speaker 1: a little extra Oh my gosh. Now you're gonna make 446 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:32,680 Speaker 1: it taste better. Now if you want to go for 447 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:38,440 Speaker 1: it for me. Cool. So I'm about flavor, you know. 448 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:44,920 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna make these little egg tostatus. That's about 449 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 1: the amount of egg that I like because I like 450 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 1: to put a little fold off on it. Oh, I 451 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,399 Speaker 1: see what you're saying. You want to deal your eggs. 452 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:57,359 Speaker 1: I'm more excited about these tackles. Okay, So we've got 453 00:26:57,480 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 1: enough for tacos too, So we're gonna go to the 454 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:05,680 Speaker 1: tacos now, grab your tortillas is crispy. Okay, okay, that's 455 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 1: how you get down boom. I like to taste the tortilla. 456 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 1: I can take some of the egg off this toast 457 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 1: and put it in my So it's just egg. You 458 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:22,639 Speaker 1: don't like eggs. No, I'm just saying I won't be 459 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:25,040 Speaker 1: able full bread. You don't have to fold the bread. 460 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,560 Speaker 1: You can make a toast atter. So that's about the 461 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,239 Speaker 1: right amount for me because I like to stretch them 462 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,880 Speaker 1: because I like the flavor of the tortilla. You're you're 463 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 1: a big guy, So how many eggs do you have 464 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 1: to eat to get full? Oh? You know the goal? Now, 465 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 1: don't eat till you get full. When you get older, 466 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: you start learning don't eat till you get full. That's 467 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,679 Speaker 1: how people get fat. That's why that's why Americans are 468 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,479 Speaker 1: so fat now, because we were trained to eat till 469 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 1: we get full. So what happens if you don't get full? 470 00:27:54,800 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 1: You just live? Okay, okay, that's what will happen if 471 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 1: you eat to your food every time your metallolol, your 472 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 1: metabolism slows down. That's what I learned at an older age. 473 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 1: So I'm going for two tacos you want another one, 474 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:20,640 Speaker 1: So boom, take the green sauce. Shake that. Gotta shake 475 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 1: it because sometimes it, you know, vinegar starts separating. You 476 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 1: gotta do that. Now, you're not a saucer person, so 477 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 1: you're not gonna really delve in. Boom, hit that. Hit 478 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:34,200 Speaker 1: that bad. Yeah it's hot sauce, but it ain't that hot. 479 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 1: Boom you hit that. Now, the less eggs you use, 480 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 1: the more tacos you can make. Boom, get off in there. 481 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:45,760 Speaker 1: So what are we gonna jump into First, We're gonna 482 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 1: jump into the to the let's go tacos. Tacos first. Boom, 483 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 1: tacos first, tacos first. I'm all excited about these. Here 484 00:28:55,680 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 1: we go, all right, Oh, cheers, cheers than wrong. I'm 485 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 1: gonna do this all the time. That's the game right there. 486 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 1: And the longer you leave them in there, the crisper 487 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 1: they get. Yeah, well you don't want them too hard. 488 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 1: Now you want to spice it up. We got cheese. 489 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 1: I don't necessarily like to melt my cheese because it 490 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 1: takes away from the flavor of the cheese. But I 491 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 1: can eat you just like this all day. Yo. I 492 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 1: think I see the value of the real butter. Yes, 493 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:38,520 Speaker 1: for real, it makes the eggs better everything. Who's delicious? 494 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 1: I believe this all day, being broken all day, all day. 495 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 1: How much Georgia has cost? Two dollars? If that two? 496 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 1: If that eggs? And you won't I know we're limited 497 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 1: on time. I have to ask. I see you post 498 00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 1: a lot on Instagram. You're always posting super gems. M hmm, 499 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 1: what are some gems you can leave people that are 500 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 1: trying to get into the entertainment business. Um, what's the 501 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 1: let's see a good gem? Um? You gotta want it. 502 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 1: You gotta be able to take failure. You gotta be 503 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 1: able to bounce back off a failure. The hard part 504 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 1: about now is you got all these instagrammers and you 505 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: don't have to audition to get on the internet. You're 506 00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:32,520 Speaker 1: just you're on. But you're also competing against a lot 507 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 1: of people. So what if you make a lane. No 508 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 1: one's really competing with you. No one's taking away from you, 509 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 1: no one's taking your job. When you have to audition, 510 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 1: you have to audition for that job. You're not auditioning 511 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:48,240 Speaker 1: to be the funniest cook person. We can have a 512 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 1: thousand good people on Instagram, So there's a lane for everybody. 513 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 1: But a lot of these people they see instant fame 514 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,720 Speaker 1: and then they go, oh, I gotta come to Hollywood 515 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 1: and they're gonna tell me, no, I got an audition. 516 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 1: Half of these Instagrammers they won't come audition for nothing. 517 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 1: You don't ever see them audition for a while and 518 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 1: out they do the audition once, but they won't come 519 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 1: back because they're like, I'm on over here, I don't 520 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 1: need that, And I go, maybe you do, maybe you don't. 521 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 1: But it just depends on what kind of star you 522 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 1: want to be. Most Instagrammers don't become movie stars or 523 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 1: like right off the bat, you gotta come through TV. 524 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 1: But I also think the digital platforms are just as 525 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 1: hard because when you get the influences in here, they work. 526 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 1: They were a crazy amount of hours just to get 527 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 1: to get the results that they get. I guess yeah. 528 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's all a grind, it's all a ground. 529 00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 1: It's it's the grind you're willing to put up. But 530 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 1: what people nowadays don't want rejection. They don't want to 531 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 1: hear no, they don't want to have to get up 532 00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,959 Speaker 1: and try again because it's too easy for them. They 533 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 1: just go you know what, I got a phone plan. 534 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 1: I'm on now. I just got to do something stupid 535 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: enough or funny enough to build a phonewing yea, you know, 536 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 1: but and then get a check from it, hopefully. You 537 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. But when you go to TV, 538 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 1: you go do a movie, you're gonna get paid. That's 539 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 1: the difference. And you know what, when you get on TV, 540 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 1: then people will follow you. That's true. That's true. That's true. 541 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:31,040 Speaker 1: That's how it works. That's true. In regards to your book, 542 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 1: what inspired you to do the hundred central Things that 543 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 1: make your grown Man? I went to a friend of 544 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 1: mine's house and uh, I was like, yo, man, it's 545 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:45,680 Speaker 1: hot in here. Can I get some water? And he 546 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 1: did exactly what you did. He served me water and 547 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 1: a mug, and I said, this is a ceramic thing 548 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 1: that's for heat. Is supposed to be coffee. This is 549 00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:03,720 Speaker 1: what goes in here, not cold ass water. What I 550 00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 1: don't know, I would be so diss What I noticed 551 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,320 Speaker 1: about some of my friends were either they didn't grow 552 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 1: up with a dad, or they didn't grow up with 553 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:17,320 Speaker 1: a dope uncle or somebody to tell them, like, yo, man, 554 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 1: take the posters off your wall. You're thirty, you know, 555 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 1: And so I started writing this book about like etiquette 556 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:28,479 Speaker 1: and things that men should do, like, you know, make 557 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 1: sure there's candles in your house. Make sure you have 558 00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 1: a box of a variety pack of you know, feminine 559 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 1: products in your bathroom. What if she spends the night 560 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,200 Speaker 1: and forgets, do you want to go get them? Oh? 561 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 1: If you go, you know, there's some stuff down there 562 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:46,000 Speaker 1: for you if you need it, like that's game. Make 563 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:49,560 Speaker 1: sure you have hand towels so that people can wash 564 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 1: your hand, like the simple things that women would go. Oh, 565 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:58,000 Speaker 1: most dudes don't do this. Don't have two suits, you 566 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 1: know what I mean? Like, to me, this is just 567 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,960 Speaker 1: a personal thing. I don't I'm not drinking a cocktail 568 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 1: through a straw because what do I look like doing this? Well? Yeah, man, yeah, 569 00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 1: I don't wear lip gloss. And now, you know, shout 570 00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 1: out to people who you know men that do wear 571 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,400 Speaker 1: a lip class is all good and maybe you need 572 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 1: to do that, but I don't. I don't want to 573 00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 1: be like this. So what's your name? That's just not 574 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 1: how I present myself. I present as masculine, So that's 575 00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:30,320 Speaker 1: who I'm gonna be. And I think that that's okay 576 00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 1: in a world where it's sometimes not okay to be masculine. 577 00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 1: I think that book is such a dope book and 578 00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:38,839 Speaker 1: there's such a huge need for it. I didn't even 579 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 1: know about until you just mentioned it. When will it 580 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 1: be out now? Because I've had to talk about it 581 00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:48,960 Speaker 1: now the pressure is on. Yeah, so it's done. I 582 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 1: just have to format it and just put it out there. 583 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 1: You know, you probably could get it where on like 584 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:57,360 Speaker 1: Amazon or something wherever I drop it. I don't know 585 00:34:57,440 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 1: if I'm gonna go to my agency and try to 586 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:01,960 Speaker 1: do it through them more if I'm going to do 587 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:06,280 Speaker 1: it through um, you know, independent and as an executive producer, 588 00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:10,919 Speaker 1: you have an agency.
