0:00:30.600 --> 0:00:33.320
<v Speaker 1>growing up, my mother used a word all the time.

0:00:33.760 --> 0:00:39.320
<v Speaker 1>What word was this? The word is gonzejo. Gonzejo is well,

0:00:39.560 --> 0:00:43.640
<v Speaker 1>by the dictionary, it means advice. In our house, it

0:00:43.680 --> 0:00:47.440
<v Speaker 1>meant something you're not gonna like. It meant I'm about

0:00:47.479 --> 0:00:49.599
<v Speaker 1>to tell you you're fat, I'm about to tell you

0:00:49.479 --> 0:00:54.120
<v Speaker 1>you're out of control or how and you're like, fuck,

0:00:54.320 --> 0:00:58.000
<v Speaker 1>here we go now all bets are off. So no

<v Speaker 1>gonzejo is advice. So if somebody's gonna give you one,

0:01:01.440 --> 0:01:03.160
<v Speaker 1>you want to brace yourself because you never know what

0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:05.480
