But this is the All Jokes Aside podcast 00:03:58.150 --> 00:04:02.930 named by myself. JoJo may not agree. As we crack 00:04:02.930 --> 00:04:05.830 jokes as soon as we got up here. That wasn't 00:04:05.830 --> 00:04:10.250 a joke. Was that what you was playing? Wait, 00:04:10.270 --> 00:04:13.310 what? Playing about what? Nothing. Everything 00:04:13.310 --> 00:04:18.910 you said was legit. I forgot what we said in 00:04:18.910 --> 00:04:20.589 the beginning. I'll watch in a playback and I'll 00:04:20.589 --> 00:04:23.529 let you know. Because everything was. We're talking 00:04:23.529 --> 00:04:27.610 about just positivity. This year, throughout 00:04:27.610 --> 00:04:31.689 everything, let's just be honest, this first 00:04:31.689 --> 00:04:36.709 year, trash. I can't even get it out. To be completely 00:04:36.709 --> 00:04:41.670 real with you, since 2020, it's been trash? The 00:04:41.670 --> 00:04:46.170 bingo card has been trash.

This is going 00:05:01.519 --> 00:05:03.620 to be the best year. And a lot of people were 00:05:03.620 --> 00:05:05.660 saying the same things. This is going to be my 00:05:05.660 --> 00:05:10.240 year for prosper, for money, for goals, to accomplish 00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:13.420 whatever you had going on. I love that. I love 00:05:13.420 --> 00:05:15.259 that completely. But people say that every year. 00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:20.879 um I felt it really I felt it this year like 00:05:20.879 --> 00:05:24.259 I don't I don't say every year because last year 00:05:24.259 --> 00:05:28.199 I was pretty honest with myself that it was a 00:05:28.199 --> 00:05:33.180 year of um building ah okay okay building uh 00:05:33.180 --> 00:05:36.959 what was my motto that year be intentional okay 00:05:36.959 --> 00:05:40.439 and I felt like I was a lot of things got set 00:05:40.439 --> 00:05:43.639 in place switched out some things in order for 00:05:43.639 --> 00:05:47.879 this year for me to start seeing results from 00:05:47.879 --> 00:05:50.680 what I had intended for. Okay, come on, adult. 00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:56.319 It's adulting. But it's surrounded by a bunch 00:05:56.319 --> 00:05:59.779 of negativity. Then there was terrorists. Then 00:05:59.779 --> 00:06:03.360 there was Don Don. That's Don. I'm starting to 00:06:03.360 --> 00:06:06.779 call him Don Don. We got four more years of Don 00:06:06.779 --> 00:06:10.720 Don. Look, then we had the Don Don.

I'm literally out 00:06:59.100 --> 00:07:03.220 of town right now at Airbnb. Just to be able 00:07:03.220 --> 00:07:09.100 to breathe some fresh air before I go back. And 00:07:09.100 --> 00:07:11.500 worry about as my house about to catch on fire. 00:07:12.339 --> 00:07:19.480 So I don't think it's COVID for me. But it's 00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:25.319 a lot of negativity out. You frozen, boo -boo. 00:07:27.660 --> 00:07:30.339 I'm moving. All right.

Although the conspiracy 00:07:38.319 --> 00:07:44.459 theorists say me. You frozen again, boo -boo. 00:07:45.279 --> 00:07:48.000 You say it again. Some shit's just not adding 00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:50.860 up. Just in case I was frozen. I'm going to say 00:07:50.860 --> 00:07:52.199 it one more time. I was about to say you was 00:07:52.199 --> 00:07:55.620 frozen. The shit. It's just not adding up. It's 00:07:55.620 --> 00:08:00.279 crazy that I freeze when I say that phrase. Talk 00:08:00.279 --> 00:08:02.959 about conspiracies. Talk about conspiracies. 00:08:04.079 --> 00:08:08.680 So let's talk about it. The insurance companies 00:08:08.680 --> 00:08:13.040 are dropping everybody, even though you've been 00:08:13.040 --> 00:08:16.579 playing years and years for your homeowner's 00:08:16.579 --> 00:08:18.819 insurance. Y 'all out. A couple months ago, my 00:08:18.819 --> 00:08:22.519 car insurance left. It was like, hey. We're just 00:08:22.519 --> 00:08:25.300 not serving California anymore. One, that shit 00:08:25.300 --> 00:08:27.360 is crazy to me that I've been paying money forever. 00:08:28.720 --> 00:08:32.740 And y 'all can just drop me. Wait, did you ever 00:08:32.740 --> 00:08:35.379 look into that to see if they did a merger with 00:08:35.379 --> 00:08:40.519 another company? No. No, they're just like, we're 00:08:40.519 --> 00:08:42.759 not doing it in California. Let me refer you 00:08:42.759 --> 00:08:45.419 to someone else. Unless you call or let them 00:08:45.419 --> 00:08:46.879 know that you don't want to continue with that 00:08:46.879 --> 00:08:49.940 company and you find your own. Then we'll just 00:08:49.940 --> 00:08:51.820 have you go over to that company for a slightly 00:08:51.820 --> 00:08:58.019 higher price. Absolutely not. You had me at higher 00:08:58.019 --> 00:09:02.379 price because what? No, thank you. Listen, so 00:09:02.379 --> 00:09:07.940 boom, that happened. Not like it's anything, 00:09:08.159 --> 00:09:12.120 you know, on that level of homeowners, but you 00:09:12.120 --> 00:09:14.700 switch. So now I'm thinking, all right, so for 00:09:14.700 --> 00:09:16.980 all the individuals that just got new homeowners 00:09:16.980 --> 00:09:20.779 insurance and they're, homes are damaged or completely 00:09:20.779 --> 00:09:25.879 lost by these fires does that kick in automatically 00:09:25.879 --> 00:09:30.039 for full premium are they going to cover everything 00:09:30.039 --> 00:09:35.519 or is there a period where you have to be paying 00:09:35.519 --> 00:09:39.360 with them if i just started the insurance policy 00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:41.879 a week like if you like if you just got their 00:09:41.879 --> 00:09:44.159 insurance policy yeah are you going to cover 00:09:44.159 --> 00:09:48.779 me i feel like if it's anything Cause I don't 00:09:48.779 --> 00:09:50.639 know much about homeowners insurance, but if 00:09:50.639 --> 00:09:55.340 it's anything like car insurance, I think it 00:09:55.340 --> 00:10:00.200 just depends on your coverage, what you have 00:10:00.200 --> 00:10:02.980 covered, how much damage. And then I also, I 00:10:02.980 --> 00:10:05.279 also know what homeowners insurance is a little 00:10:05.279 --> 00:10:08.200 bit trickier to get that money because they always 00:10:08.200 --> 00:10:11.279 need proof. So even though these fires are happening, 00:10:11.320 --> 00:10:15.200 they need to know, okay, how much value did you 00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:16.899 have in your house? Okay. Where's the proof? 00:10:17.470 --> 00:10:20.090 yeah otherwise we're otherwise we're otherwise 00:10:20.090 --> 00:10:22.190 we're just going to give you this amount they're 00:10:22.190 --> 00:10:24.529 about to lowball the fuck out of some people 00:10:24.529 --> 00:10:28.129 that's why they're like okay when you leave if 00:10:28.129 --> 00:10:31.789 you're evacuating take a video of everything 00:10:31.789 --> 00:10:34.350 that you have so that way they can't say oh well 00:10:34.350 --> 00:10:36.610 like how the fuck am i supposed to show you proof 00:10:36.610 --> 00:10:39.210 my receipts were in there unless i go to my credit 00:10:39.210 --> 00:10:42.889 card statements and they're not gonna take those 00:10:42.889 --> 00:10:45.679 but if it's something i've had forever They not 00:10:45.679 --> 00:10:47.220 going to take those because they can black credit 00:10:47.220 --> 00:10:48.960 card statements. You could have easily got that 00:10:48.960 --> 00:10:50.740 from somebody else. How do we know that it belongs 00:10:50.740 --> 00:10:54.299 to you? You know what I'm saying? Everything 00:10:54.299 --> 00:10:57.120 is a catch 22 when when companies have to come 00:10:57.120 --> 00:11:02.399 out of pocket. Yeah. So I'm like, OK, these people, 00:11:02.519 --> 00:11:06.179 it's before I can get on the economy. So, boom, 00:11:06.259 --> 00:11:10.480 you have that. You have the. I don't even know 00:11:10.480 --> 00:11:13.480 what you're talking so much. Oh, wait a minute. 00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:17.789 Did you hear? Did you hear that? All of those 00:11:17.789 --> 00:11:19.870 houses. And this was from a real estate agent. 00:11:20.009 --> 00:11:21.710 It wasn't on TikTok, y 'all.

This is L .A. This is Hollywood. These 00:12:50.159 --> 00:12:55.779 are millions on millions of dollar houses. This 00:12:55.779 --> 00:12:58.700 is costing a pretty penny. So if those individuals 00:12:58.700 --> 00:13:02.159 leave and they're not paying taxes here or the 00:13:02.159 --> 00:13:07.019 construction workers, which. I'm not even going 00:13:07.019 --> 00:13:13.899 to touch in on that. And. Who are we going to 00:13:13.899 --> 00:13:17.139 have? Like what construction workers are we going 00:13:17.139 --> 00:13:20.000 to have available to do this? I have several 00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:21.759 people that just bought houses. I know several 00:13:21.759 --> 00:13:24.519 people that have been under construction for 00:13:24.519 --> 00:13:27.419 two, three years and their stuff still is not 00:13:27.419 --> 00:13:32.200 done. So these individuals who lost their houses. 00:13:34.519 --> 00:13:36.620 How long are they going to have to wait to rebuild? 00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:39.519 Yeah. Well, one, we have to clean up everything. 00:13:41.740 --> 00:13:44.200 I hope and pray that the fire is over by the 00:13:44.200 --> 00:13:47.639 time anyone's watching this. I zoomed in and 00:13:47.639 --> 00:13:52.679 zoomed out. That blew me off. Oh, that was trippy. 00:13:53.080 --> 00:13:57.440 That was trippy. I hope and pray it's over. But 00:13:57.440 --> 00:13:59.460 after that, you have to rebuild. You have to 00:13:59.460 --> 00:14:03.120 clean up. Cleaning up is going to take a while. 00:14:03.419 --> 00:14:09.440 The cleanup, clean up, rebuild. Everybody getting 00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:12.240 back to some sort of normalcy, that's going to 00:14:12.240 --> 00:14:15.860 last well past the summer. Oh, for sure. That's 00:14:15.860 --> 00:14:19.200 going to last. Because we're talking about, this 00:14:19.200 --> 00:14:22.120 is just from one fire. We're talking about two, 00:14:22.200 --> 00:14:24.740 or this is from two fires, two of the biggest 00:14:24.740 --> 00:14:30.440 fires. Two whole towns. We're talking banks, 00:14:30.700 --> 00:14:35.860 schools, apartments, gone. Civic centers, recreational 00:14:35.860 --> 00:14:40.590 centers, gone. cars gone and that and that's 00:14:40.590 --> 00:14:44.309 not even including the additional what the additional 00:14:44.309 --> 00:14:47.750 six five six smaller fires that we had like apartment 00:14:47.750 --> 00:14:50.049 buildings and all this other stuff it's a lot 00:14:50.049 --> 00:14:56.809 of rebuilding towns upon smaller structures that's 00:14:56.809 --> 00:15:00.429 the whole economy those businesses are out people 00:15:00.429 --> 00:15:04.190 can't go to work they have no work and what's 00:15:04.190 --> 00:15:07.320 even more disgusting about it is everything is 00:15:07.320 --> 00:15:09.820 just going to keep going up, up, up. It's going 00:15:09.820 --> 00:15:11.639 to go up. And this is what I was thinking about, 00:15:11.799 --> 00:15:15.279 which it didn't dawn on me, but you still have 00:15:15.279 --> 00:15:20.860 to pay your mortgage. You don't have a house 00:15:20.860 --> 00:15:27.600 and you're still paying up for $13 ,000 for mortgage 00:15:27.600 --> 00:15:32.840 and up. That's just for the ball of houses. People 00:15:32.840 --> 00:15:35.860 that didn't have super... You know, that aren't 00:15:35.860 --> 00:15:39.220 super rich. Average Joe. They don't have money 00:15:39.220 --> 00:15:40.879 to pay for their mortgage and they can't go to 00:15:40.879 --> 00:15:45.899 work. Maybe listen. Maybe listen. Let me get 00:15:45.899 --> 00:15:49.039 something in the mail talking about past due. 00:15:49.159 --> 00:15:51.759 Where's your mortgage? I'm like channel five. 00:15:53.279 --> 00:15:56.480 There's my mortgage. Channel five. I can't pay 00:15:56.480 --> 00:16:00.620 it. So I'm filing bankruptcy. And then again, 00:16:00.879 --> 00:16:07.370 economy. Look, there should be so many things 00:16:07.370 --> 00:16:11.769 right now that companies should be taking heed 00:16:11.769 --> 00:16:18.409 to. Mortgage companies need to chill out. Lights, 00:16:18.429 --> 00:16:23.889 water, chill out. Was it car note and all those 00:16:23.889 --> 00:16:29.870 little expenses? Chill out. Banks definitely 00:16:29.870 --> 00:16:32.429 need to chill out because if I'm going through 00:16:32.429 --> 00:16:35.139 this. I'm going to the nearest bank and I'm pulling 00:16:35.139 --> 00:16:37.320 my stuff out because I'm going to need to figure 00:16:37.320 --> 00:16:41.519 something out. So all these penalties and all 00:16:41.519 --> 00:16:43.740 this other stuff, chill out on all of that. Credit 00:16:43.740 --> 00:16:46.899 card, chill out. They're going to pause on it 00:16:46.899 --> 00:16:52.740 for a second, but that's another business. I 00:16:52.740 --> 00:16:55.799 know Biden is talking about, I can't remember 00:16:55.799 --> 00:16:58.159 the acronym or the letters, but there's a program. 00:16:59.039 --> 00:17:00.919 that if stuff like this happens they'll help 00:17:00.919 --> 00:17:03.879 pay for a certain amount of time and previously 00:17:03.879 --> 00:17:08.400 they were paying 75 so Biden is like we're gonna 00:17:08.400 --> 00:17:12.819 pay 100 yeah I saw that no offense but you're 00:17:12.819 --> 00:17:17.180 the president for how long yeah how are you if 00:17:17.180 --> 00:17:19.680 he can get that if he can get that going through 00:17:19.680 --> 00:17:23.519 but I will say a lot of people have really stepped 00:17:23.519 --> 00:17:28.420 up for this um biden said the 100 let's see how 00:17:28.420 --> 00:17:31.519 that goes by the time this episode comes out 00:17:31.519 --> 00:17:34.339 hopefully we hear more about that but i know 00:17:34.339 --> 00:17:39.700 um walt disney donated 15 million dollars um 00:17:39.700 --> 00:17:45.440 at disney they also uh fema is also taking action 00:17:45.440 --> 00:17:47.759 too oh i think that's what it's called but people 00:17:47.759 --> 00:17:50.500 have to apply for fema and all that other stuff 00:17:50.500 --> 00:17:55.279 well fema is just a natural disaster thing anyway 00:17:55.279 --> 00:17:57.299 that yeah that's for the united states anyway 00:17:57.299 --> 00:17:59.680 i think that's separate than what uh biden was 00:17:59.680 --> 00:18:01.640 talking about because fema you know they kind 00:18:01.640 --> 00:18:04.559 of kick it into action especially during uh hurricane 00:18:04.559 --> 00:18:06.500 katrina and all that other stuff i know they 00:18:06.500 --> 00:18:11.230 just helped hawaii yes Maui when they went through 00:18:11.230 --> 00:18:14.170 theirs. Again, Maui just had something. We got 00:18:14.170 --> 00:18:17.470 something. Listen, it's snowing in the Midwest. 00:18:17.750 --> 00:18:21.410 More than snowing in a while. Honey, it's snowing 00:18:21.410 --> 00:18:24.730 in Atlanta. It's snowing in Atlanta. Climate 00:18:24.730 --> 00:18:30.150 change. It's a real, real thing. What you gonna 00:18:30.150 --> 00:18:34.329 do about it? Not a damn thing because it's too 00:18:34.329 --> 00:18:39.079 fucking late. It's too late. Did you just make 00:18:39.079 --> 00:18:43.000 a song about climate change? Look, because this 00:18:43.000 --> 00:18:48.700 is weird. Like, okay, put aside the allegations 00:18:48.700 --> 00:18:53.740 that people are starting these fires. Okay, those 00:18:53.740 --> 00:18:58.119 aren't allegations. The smaller fires, the small, 00:18:58.180 --> 00:19:02.299 they did confirm like the woodland, I can't even 00:19:02.299 --> 00:19:05.660 talk. They did confirm the Woodland Hills fire 00:19:05.660 --> 00:19:10.339 that They were able to contain that one 100%. 00:19:10.339 --> 00:19:17.619 But the, I don't know if it was, I think it was 00:19:17.619 --> 00:19:21.279 the people who lived in the area saw the person 00:19:21.279 --> 00:19:25.259 who was trying to set some ish on fire and they 00:19:25.259 --> 00:19:28.119 ended up doing a citizen's arrest. So that one 00:19:28.119 --> 00:19:32.740 was definitely. arson i think um i don't know 00:19:32.740 --> 00:19:34.700 about the studio city i don't know about the 00:19:34.700 --> 00:19:36.839 granada hills i don't know about the long beach 00:19:36.839 --> 00:19:39.099 i think all those are still under investigation 00:19:39.099 --> 00:19:42.859 but i will say it is fairly strange that the 00:19:42.859 --> 00:19:50.839 apartment um fires were going on all around the 00:19:50.839 --> 00:19:55.140 city so if people starting fires why i think 00:19:55.140 --> 00:19:56.779 they're starting fires because they see this 00:19:56.779 --> 00:20:00.309 as an opportunity like oh everybody everybody 00:20:00.309 --> 00:20:04.589 is dealing with the natural fire let me go ahead 00:20:04.589 --> 00:20:06.269 and do that they're probably trying to do some 00:20:06.269 --> 00:20:08.690 insurance scam or something i don't know they 00:20:08.690 --> 00:20:12.630 ain't got no money for insurance so right now 00:20:12.630 --> 00:20:15.589 ain't the time to be faking shit people are here 00:20:15.589 --> 00:20:17.950 looting you looting for what your house burned 00:20:17.950 --> 00:20:22.670 down it was coming out that it was a few people 00:20:22.670 --> 00:20:25.529 well two things they said that there was people 00:20:25.529 --> 00:20:29.190 looting But then they also said it was some racist 00:20:29.190 --> 00:20:31.430 stuff going on because it was some black people 00:20:31.430 --> 00:20:33.130 that looked like they were looting, but really 00:20:33.130 --> 00:20:34.509 they were trying to save stuff out of their own 00:20:34.509 --> 00:20:39.150 house. So I don't know. But if there was ever 00:20:39.150 --> 00:20:41.569 a time to loot, this ain't the time. First of 00:20:41.569 --> 00:20:43.470 all. Because what the fuck you going to do with 00:20:43.470 --> 00:20:47.910 that TV? Wait a minute. Who is looting and something 00:20:47.910 --> 00:20:51.650 is on fire? That's what I'm saying. So I don't 00:20:51.650 --> 00:20:56.970 know how true that is. It was already iffy that 00:20:56.970 --> 00:21:02.490 L .A. had five fires simultaneously that spread 00:21:02.490 --> 00:21:09.549 from the one fire, that spread from the wind. 00:21:10.109 --> 00:21:13.369 But you were on different corners of L .A. I'm 00:21:13.369 --> 00:21:16.890 sorry. I'm not a genius. But how the fuck did 00:21:16.890 --> 00:21:21.130 that happen? I'm no fire expert, but something 00:21:21.130 --> 00:21:27.490 smells a little fishy. Listen, I'm just like, 00:21:27.589 --> 00:21:30.670 that's not adding up. Is it the conspiracy theory 00:21:30.670 --> 00:21:33.569 inside of me? No, I just feel like that's common 00:21:33.569 --> 00:21:38.470 sense. That's no conspiracy. The amber skipped 00:21:38.470 --> 00:21:42.289 the house since when did fire and a tornado have 00:21:42.289 --> 00:21:45.430 a baby? Called an amber. And it skipped houses. 00:21:45.490 --> 00:21:48.690 It skipped towns. It skipped entire neighborhoods. 00:21:49.329 --> 00:21:54.049 Yo, literally. It was like, let's say the natural 00:21:54.049 --> 00:21:57.289 fire over here. All of a sudden, okay, the two 00:21:57.289 --> 00:22:00.869 natural fires are right here, right? All of a 00:22:00.869 --> 00:22:03.809 sudden, boom, smack dab in the middle. Another 00:22:03.809 --> 00:22:07.650 little fire. What? What happened here? What's 00:22:07.650 --> 00:22:10.710 in the middle? What happened here? How y 'all 00:22:10.710 --> 00:22:14.049 skip? If anything, I think it would have grew 00:22:14.049 --> 00:22:16.670 a little and then got to the middle. If anything, 00:22:16.930 --> 00:22:20.829 I think it would have been a line. Correct us 00:22:20.829 --> 00:22:24.150 if we're wrong, but I just don't understand that. 00:22:24.309 --> 00:22:26.670 We're not wrong because the Palisades fire right 00:22:26.670 --> 00:22:33.529 now is moving on to the 405 in a line. We had 00:22:33.529 --> 00:22:36.109 multiple people stay at our house from the fire. 00:22:36.690 --> 00:22:41.470 Also, we had a fire. but the fire station was 00:22:41.470 --> 00:22:43.250 right next to it when i tell you we packed up 00:22:43.250 --> 00:22:48.190 our shit so fast wait uh over the hill yeah oh 00:22:48.190 --> 00:22:51.710 wow it was like oh no no no no no then they sent 00:22:51.710 --> 00:22:55.789 out that alert oh hey evacuation you ain't gotta 00:22:55.789 --> 00:22:59.509 tell me twice wait a minute la said evacuate 00:22:59.509 --> 00:23:02.750 warning to everybody in the city oops my bad 00:23:02.750 --> 00:23:05.789 y 'all that wasn't for you that wasn't for you 00:23:05.789 --> 00:23:12.650 also I just really want to give a PSA to everyone. 00:23:13.190 --> 00:23:19.869 In the time of a crisis, why do y 'all fly to 00:23:19.869 --> 00:23:24.690 the grocery stores and take everything?

And I'm not going 00:26:10.740 --> 00:26:13.140 to put the blame on the casting directors only 00:26:13.140 --> 00:26:15.240 because y 'all are workers just like we are. 00:26:15.500 --> 00:26:20.799 Y 'all get y 'all word from the head down. You 00:26:20.799 --> 00:26:22.259 know what I'm saying? So y 'all just doing what 00:26:22.259 --> 00:26:29.599 y 'all told to do. It's like, it's a fire. internet 00:26:29.599 --> 00:26:34.880 is trash because i keep seeing this freeze it 00:26:34.880 --> 00:26:40.980 is outside of our uh hands we can't do anything 00:26:40.980 --> 00:26:47.900 about this yeah yeah yeah um but the studios 00:26:47.900 --> 00:26:53.039 what what are y 'all recording what are y 'all 00:26:53.039 --> 00:26:55.279 filming why are we having impersonal auditions 00:26:55.279 --> 00:26:58.539 and the actors You get an evacuation warning. 00:26:59.160 --> 00:27:01.259 And the first thing you're thinking about is, 00:27:01.339 --> 00:27:03.099 oh, I got to make it to this in -person audition. 00:27:03.579 --> 00:27:09.200 No. If anything, if for one, I'm prioritizing 00:27:09.200 --> 00:27:14.589 myself as much as this career is whatever. We 00:27:14.589 --> 00:27:17.390 may not have a career after that. Not not saying 00:27:17.390 --> 00:27:20.210 not like not speaking of worse, but just in my 00:27:20.210 --> 00:27:21.710 head, that's not the first thing I'm thinking 00:27:21.710 --> 00:27:23.789 of. I'm not thinking about no audition. And if 00:27:23.789 --> 00:27:26.369 the audition is that important to me, I'm reaching 00:27:26.369 --> 00:27:29.529 out to my reps like, hey, can I turn in a self 00:27:29.529 --> 00:27:32.789 tape when I get to safety? Right now, I have 00:27:32.789 --> 00:27:35.430 to be evacuated. Can you ask them to give me 00:27:35.430 --> 00:27:37.890 a week extension so that when I get to say I 00:27:37.890 --> 00:27:42.279 can go ahead and do do do a self tape? You would 00:27:42.279 --> 00:27:45.740 think that, but it's business. If I'm also like, 00:27:45.819 --> 00:27:48.559 okay, I'm leaving my house because I might lose 00:27:48.559 --> 00:27:51.220 everything. I'm going to need some work to rebuild. 00:27:52.119 --> 00:27:56.119 But the thing about it is where it's moving to, 00:27:56.240 --> 00:27:59.960 and again, not saying this, but if it were to 00:27:59.960 --> 00:28:03.960 catch the studios catch on fire or equipment 00:28:03.960 --> 00:28:06.359 or anything like that, that's delaying a process 00:28:06.359 --> 00:28:09.920 and you still out of work. So you did all that 00:28:09.920 --> 00:28:17.059 for what? is lose lose i don't know we don't 00:28:17.059 --> 00:28:18.819 but we also don't know where the industry is 00:28:18.819 --> 00:28:21.160 about to go it's award season are they gonna 00:28:21.160 --> 00:28:27.500 have awards oh did you be celebrating right now 00:28:27.500 --> 00:28:30.519 i mean a win is a win you worked hard you just 00:28:30.519 --> 00:28:38.000 like you um i mean you got the win so You should 00:28:38.000 --> 00:28:41.440 be celebrating. I do. Where is this going to 00:28:41.440 --> 00:28:43.640 be? Are you going to be getting dressed to go 00:28:43.640 --> 00:28:46.059 to these? Are we going to be watching it on TV? 00:28:46.200 --> 00:28:51.059 Would you like happy? Are you going to be happy? 00:28:52.299 --> 00:28:55.720 And honestly, this is like a catch 22 because 00:28:55.720 --> 00:29:00.500 I do feel like it would be a tad bit tone deaf 00:29:00.500 --> 00:29:05.380 to continue anything celebratory during a time 00:29:05.380 --> 00:29:10.890 where. 100 000 people are out of homes out of 00:29:10.890 --> 00:29:13.730 jobs and all this other stuff i think it would 00:29:13.730 --> 00:29:16.670 be a tad bit tone deaf but in the same breath 00:29:16.670 --> 00:29:23.170 i don't know now this is what i'm saying i get 00:29:23.170 --> 00:29:26.670 it but it's like we've had the news on non -stop 00:29:26.670 --> 00:29:29.970 i have not watched the news in a very long time 00:29:29.970 --> 00:29:32.490 because it's always great i never watch the news 00:29:32.490 --> 00:29:36.160 i go on yahoo give me the highlights We've had 00:29:36.160 --> 00:29:42.299 it on 24 -7 watching these fires. Can I get a 00:29:42.299 --> 00:29:45.079 glimmer of hope? There is nothing. There's just 00:29:45.079 --> 00:29:47.460 fire after fire after fire. In between the fire, 00:29:47.619 --> 00:29:49.660 there are interviews of people that have lost 00:29:49.660 --> 00:29:52.079 everything, that have lost their homes, that 00:29:52.079 --> 00:29:57.660 are going through. Can we get something besides 00:29:57.660 --> 00:30:01.920 this? Not to say don't bring light to it, hide 00:30:01.920 --> 00:30:05.759 it, but also can I feel hopeful? Yeah. News is 00:30:05.759 --> 00:30:08.680 not giving us any hope whatsoever. Turn on Tubi. 00:30:12.240 --> 00:30:15.619 See, look, we're in the age of technology where 00:30:15.619 --> 00:30:17.680 we have streaming. You want to feel hopeful? 00:30:17.900 --> 00:30:21.480 Go to something that's already uploaded. So I'm 00:30:21.480 --> 00:30:24.359 saying like, okay, would an award be the worst 00:30:24.359 --> 00:30:28.119 thing? Because I'm going to tell you how it's 00:30:28.119 --> 00:30:30.099 going to happen. And if they have it, we're going 00:30:30.099 --> 00:30:33.000 to get back to this. You're going to win your 00:30:33.000 --> 00:30:36.730 award. Because you still, you know, it's a little 00:30:36.730 --> 00:30:38.690 bit of celebration, a little bit of happiness 00:30:38.690 --> 00:30:43.089 in such a traumatic time. And then all of your 00:30:43.089 --> 00:30:48.450 speeches are going to say, LA, let's donate. 00:30:48.589 --> 00:30:52.829 Let's do what we can. You know, how can I feel 00:30:52.829 --> 00:30:57.630 happiness from this? You know, I'm, thank you 00:30:57.630 --> 00:31:00.549 for my team. Thank you for my agents. But right 00:31:00.549 --> 00:31:02.859 now we need to be thinking about LA. But also 00:31:02.859 --> 00:31:04.720 the average person, you got to think about it 00:31:04.720 --> 00:31:06.180 from the point of view of the average person. 00:31:06.319 --> 00:31:09.700 Like we're in the industry, so we get it. We 00:31:09.700 --> 00:31:13.640 feel like, or not feel like, but we understand 00:31:13.640 --> 00:31:16.660 the concept of having a bigger platform and using 00:31:16.660 --> 00:31:19.339 that platform for the good of the people. But 00:31:19.339 --> 00:31:24.339 as an average person watching that, that is tone 00:31:24.339 --> 00:31:27.299 deaf as fuck. It is. I don't want to hear that. 00:31:27.599 --> 00:31:32.630 But this is the thing too. outside of LA some 00:31:32.630 --> 00:31:37.769 people don't give a fuck and and now like I see 00:31:37.769 --> 00:31:43.109 natural disasters and I can't really um I can't 00:31:43.109 --> 00:31:44.990 connect with them as much because they're there 00:31:44.990 --> 00:31:49.150 it's not happening to you so again you're tone 00:31:49.150 --> 00:31:52.049 deaf or it's like in one ear out the other you're 00:31:52.049 --> 00:31:54.789 not feeling the impact so now that I am in it 00:31:54.789 --> 00:31:59.339 and it's like it's on fire This is really scary. 00:31:59.859 --> 00:32:02.200 If I look at something outside of this or if 00:32:02.200 --> 00:32:04.500 I look at a podcast or TV show that's not based 00:32:04.500 --> 00:32:08.220 in L .A. and they really can't feel it. I'm like, 00:32:08.259 --> 00:32:11.799 damn, you don't have no feelings for this? This 00:32:11.799 --> 00:32:15.460 isn't affecting you in any type of way? But I 00:32:15.460 --> 00:32:17.460 feel like that also shows the lack of humanity 00:32:17.460 --> 00:32:21.660 that we have grown towards. True. Just as a nation. 00:32:22.200 --> 00:32:25.819 If it is an award show, which is seen all around 00:32:25.819 --> 00:32:29.680 the world. versus just our local TV, is that 00:32:29.680 --> 00:32:33.240 going to bring some more awareness? I don't know. 00:32:35.380 --> 00:32:41.259 I talked to my friend back in Cincy and he's 00:32:41.259 --> 00:32:44.539 like, I was like, we're going out. Yeah, yeah, 00:32:44.539 --> 00:32:47.299 yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm like, we're packing 00:32:47.299 --> 00:32:51.460 up. We're going out of town for a bit. One, just 00:32:51.460 --> 00:32:53.279 so I don't have to wear masks when I walk outside. 00:32:55.980 --> 00:32:58.440 to try to find some peace of mind, some hope 00:32:58.440 --> 00:33:01.180 during this time that hopefully when we go back, 00:33:01.180 --> 00:33:05.539 the fires will be died down. Or if our house 00:33:05.539 --> 00:33:08.019 is one of those, we're out in time because it's 00:33:08.019 --> 00:33:10.160 not about to wait to the last minute. Yeah, yeah. 00:33:10.440 --> 00:33:14.519 And he's like, you know, is it really that bad 00:33:14.519 --> 00:33:19.819 that you have to leave? It's not going to be 00:33:19.819 --> 00:33:21.359 gone like tomorrow.

I feel that. I can't believe you 00:38:50.389 --> 00:38:52.230 still got to work. Let's talk about these jobs 00:38:52.230 --> 00:38:54.610 still wanting people to come into the office 00:38:54.610 --> 00:38:57.130 during a time of crises. Like I can't breathe 00:38:57.130 --> 00:39:00.369 outside. It's so tone deaf because what exactly 00:39:00.369 --> 00:39:08.170 are we doing? Well, mine's kind of busy. I do 00:39:08.170 --> 00:39:12.239 have a lot of people calling out. because people 00:39:12.239 --> 00:39:15.719 are like I'm not coming outside or again people 00:39:15.719 --> 00:39:18.079 lost their houses they lost their businesses 00:39:18.079 --> 00:39:20.739 that's the thing like people people are either 00:39:20.739 --> 00:39:26.860 calling out but nobody is no and that's where 00:39:26.860 --> 00:39:29.500 I come in place like now people are relying on 00:39:29.500 --> 00:39:32.239 me but I also don't feel like you need to be 00:39:32.239 --> 00:39:36.760 in the office to do that for what yeah Like for 00:39:36.760 --> 00:39:40.920 what? Honey, and don't get me started on my company. 00:39:44.320 --> 00:39:49.800 That's an offline conversation. That's an offline 00:39:49.800 --> 00:39:52.559 conversation because I am under an NDA and I 00:39:52.559 --> 00:39:54.539 can't say too much up here, but that is offline. 00:39:55.980 --> 00:40:00.360 Hilarious. So yeah, the year started off trash. 00:40:01.500 --> 00:40:06.480 We are hoping for change. But what was our thoughts 00:40:06.480 --> 00:40:07.900 going into this year? Because I thought this 00:40:07.900 --> 00:40:09.619 was going to be a great year for me. It's still 00:40:09.619 --> 00:40:11.920 going to be a great year. You thought that? I 00:40:11.920 --> 00:40:16.039 love that. I was like, this is it. Stuff going 00:40:16.039 --> 00:40:19.539 to be shaking. And this is why. My whole point 00:40:19.539 --> 00:40:23.579 this year, I didn't have any New Year's resolutions 00:40:23.579 --> 00:40:25.579 per se. Like, I want to do this. I want to do 00:40:25.579 --> 00:40:28.880 that. I didn't have the list. But I did say this 00:40:28.880 --> 00:40:32.000 year, I'm going to be strategic in my actions. 00:40:32.480 --> 00:40:34.880 Like, I know where I want to go. I know what 00:40:34.880 --> 00:40:38.280 I want to accomplish. But now I need to strategize 00:40:38.280 --> 00:40:40.559 and follow through with that. Last year, intention. 00:40:40.880 --> 00:40:45.239 I have all my intentions. I made stuff move around. 00:40:45.460 --> 00:40:48.019 This year, it's like, okay, you did that. You 00:40:48.019 --> 00:40:51.239 have this space. So be strategic in what you're 00:40:51.239 --> 00:40:55.639 doing moving forward. Oh, I love that. So that 00:40:55.639 --> 00:40:58.199 was it. I was like, no, no, no. Get healthy. 00:40:59.159 --> 00:41:00.519 Because you should have been doing that shit 00:41:00.519 --> 00:41:04.969 already. I'm getting healthy. It's there. it's 00:41:04.969 --> 00:41:07.590 part of life all right i'm doing that what else 00:41:07.590 --> 00:41:12.570 what's what's the basic ones uh gym eat right 00:41:12.570 --> 00:41:15.469 which normally only lasts until the spring it's 00:41:15.469 --> 00:41:21.369 all in the fitness category uh money and i don't 00:41:21.369 --> 00:41:25.269 know i didn't have any this year i didn't have 00:41:25.269 --> 00:41:29.139 any last year well no no no well no Last year, 00:41:29.219 --> 00:41:32.320 it wasn't really a year's resolution. It was 00:41:32.320 --> 00:41:35.119 more so I wanted clarity. I wanted clarity on 00:41:35.119 --> 00:41:39.139 a lot of stuff personally and professionally. 00:41:41.039 --> 00:41:44.000 This year, I came in with no expectations at 00:41:44.000 --> 00:41:47.559 all because I was like, it's ghetto outside. 00:41:53.739 --> 00:41:56.760 yeah I had none I just came into it with the 00:41:56.760 --> 00:41:59.179 regular ish which is which is the regular stuff 00:41:59.179 --> 00:42:02.840 that I add into my prayers daily is just health 00:42:02.840 --> 00:42:08.340 outstanding health um an abundance of wealth 00:42:08.340 --> 00:42:12.000 and not wealth in things of value but more so 00:42:12.000 --> 00:42:16.099 in in like things like relationships and like 00:42:16.099 --> 00:42:19.039 relationships and stuff like that um just like 00:42:19.039 --> 00:42:23.900 wealth all around um but other than that then 00:42:23.900 --> 00:42:26.840 that was it yeah I was like I was playing I was 00:42:26.840 --> 00:42:28.920 like what do I want to do so then I went down 00:42:28.920 --> 00:42:33.199 a rabbit hole uh what's our time where we at 00:42:33.199 --> 00:42:35.519 before I go down this rabbit hole I don't know 00:42:35.519 --> 00:42:39.940 we don't know okay all right so keep it going 00:42:39.940 --> 00:42:44.860 this might be two parts so in case it is pause 00:42:44.860 --> 00:42:50.260 for part two okay so I was getting into this 00:42:50.260 --> 00:42:53.989 mindset um I don't know how I came across this. 00:42:54.789 --> 00:43:02.510 It's a Japanese philosophy called Ikigai. Don't 00:43:02.510 --> 00:43:06.650 do that. And it is basically like the secret 00:43:06.650 --> 00:43:10.110 to happiness. Bro, you love my people so much. 00:43:11.510 --> 00:43:15.889 Bro, you're not Japanese. My goodness. I'm going 00:43:15.889 --> 00:43:18.869 to get my mom on the phone. And actually, I don't 00:43:18.869 --> 00:43:24.320 know what culture. the individual or where they 00:43:24.320 --> 00:43:26.320 came from, what ethnicity, whatever, where they 00:43:26.320 --> 00:43:28.960 came from. The first person I saw that was talking 00:43:28.960 --> 00:43:32.820 about icky guy, I don't know what he was. But 00:43:32.820 --> 00:43:34.760 the further I got to it, it was some Japanese 00:43:34.760 --> 00:43:38.239 people, influencers, that was like, it's not 00:43:38.239 --> 00:43:41.219 even what you think it is. But I'm going to take 00:43:41.219 --> 00:43:42.880 it as this. This is the westernized version. 00:43:43.199 --> 00:43:45.539 I'm going to take it as this. If I'm wrong, cool, 00:43:45.619 --> 00:43:51.099 cool, cool. Don't follow into it. But... spoken 00:43:51.099 --> 00:43:55.119 like a true american so go ahead it's the secret 00:43:55.119 --> 00:43:58.280 of happiness so there's different concepts that 00:43:58.280 --> 00:44:01.300 go into it but overall it's the concept that 00:44:01.300 --> 00:44:04.880 if you find what you love and you get paid for 00:44:04.880 --> 00:44:07.420 it you'll be more happy um and i'm gonna keep 00:44:07.420 --> 00:44:10.480 looking down because i have the notes um so you 00:44:10.480 --> 00:44:12.800 put these four things together what do you love 00:44:12.800 --> 00:44:16.780 what can you get paid for what are you good at 00:44:17.869 --> 00:44:23.130 And what does the world need? So if you can find 00:44:23.130 --> 00:44:26.789 something to do that brings those four concepts 00:44:26.789 --> 00:44:29.289 together, then ultimately that is the secret 00:44:29.289 --> 00:44:32.349 to happiness. People are like super stressed 00:44:32.349 --> 00:44:35.710 at work. They hate work. It might be that you're 00:44:35.710 --> 00:44:37.550 doing something good for the community, but you 00:44:37.550 --> 00:44:42.230 hate it. You're not going to be happy. Or you're 00:44:42.230 --> 00:44:44.690 doing something wonderful like me. I want to 00:44:44.690 --> 00:44:47.650 do resume writing. I do find happiness in it 00:44:47.650 --> 00:44:51.710 because I'm helping someone else. Can I make 00:44:51.710 --> 00:44:56.090 as much money as I want to there? No. I can't 00:44:56.090 --> 00:44:58.929 make it a career because my target audience are 00:44:58.929 --> 00:45:01.590 individuals that need it, but they might not 00:45:01.590 --> 00:45:04.190 be able to afford my service. And then if so, 00:45:04.269 --> 00:45:05.730 then I have to dumb it down. And I don't want 00:45:05.730 --> 00:45:08.369 to do that because you're paying ultimately for 00:45:08.369 --> 00:45:10.829 a session with me, not just your resume on a 00:45:10.829 --> 00:45:14.110 paper, but also how do I make you feel after? 00:45:15.860 --> 00:45:19.619 make you do have I helped you find value in yourself 00:45:19.619 --> 00:45:22.800 do you leave feeling good about yourself is the 00:45:22.800 --> 00:45:26.940 whole thing that I want to bring okay if I increase 00:45:26.940 --> 00:45:30.179 the price the people that need it most they can't 00:45:30.179 --> 00:45:32.480 they're not gonna pay for it but I feel like 00:45:32.480 --> 00:45:36.880 that's when you get creative you you don't have 00:45:36.880 --> 00:45:41.219 to dumb down your services or or not charge what 00:45:41.219 --> 00:45:44.460 you're worth just because the people that you're 00:45:44.460 --> 00:45:47.579 targeting towards may or may not afford it that's 00:45:47.579 --> 00:45:49.219 when you get creative you look into different 00:45:49.219 --> 00:45:52.940 grants maybe look into um the non -profit side 00:45:52.940 --> 00:45:56.579 of things or maybe because you deal with uh corporations 00:45:56.579 --> 00:46:01.300 now maybe looking into um okay how can i get 00:46:01.300 --> 00:46:04.840 a contract with this corporate entity that way 00:46:04.840 --> 00:46:07.820 that they're you know people we could work something 00:46:07.820 --> 00:46:11.239 out and then kind of tailor it to that i feel 00:46:11.239 --> 00:46:13.400 like there's there's different ways to kind of 00:46:13.789 --> 00:46:17.269 Or even schools. How can I get a contract with 00:46:17.269 --> 00:46:23.550 a school and help out these students? Because 00:46:23.550 --> 00:46:26.329 they're definitely going to need it. Yeah. You're 00:46:26.329 --> 00:46:30.409 not going to make enough money. Unless you have 00:46:30.409 --> 00:46:33.889 a platform, like a humongous platform. And then 00:46:33.889 --> 00:46:36.449 you got to think about TED Talks. You can start 00:46:36.449 --> 00:46:40.110 doing TED Talks. That's money. I think it's not 00:46:40.110 --> 00:46:43.309 going to be a lot of money. right away but there's 00:46:43.309 --> 00:46:45.110 definitely potential there's potential it's not 00:46:45.110 --> 00:46:46.610 a lot of money right away but then it feels like 00:46:46.610 --> 00:46:51.010 a job it's like acting a lot of actors I love 00:46:51.010 --> 00:46:54.510 acting and this I'm gonna speak on the outside 00:46:54.510 --> 00:46:58.349 because I haven't become an actor full -time 00:46:58.349 --> 00:47:00.789 where I don't have to work but some people they're 00:47:00.789 --> 00:47:03.750 like I love acting I love the way that it makes 00:47:03.750 --> 00:47:08.750 me feel but then business comes into it so let 00:47:08.750 --> 00:47:13.099 me let me if you got I love it. Absolutely love 00:47:13.099 --> 00:47:17.539 acting. I'm good at it. Okay. What the world 00:47:17.539 --> 00:47:19.579 needs, it needs it. It needs laughter. It needs 00:47:19.579 --> 00:47:25.159 emotion. It needs a relatability. Yeah. Relatability 00:47:25.159 --> 00:47:29.360 outlet. Can you get paid for it? There's a lot 00:47:29.360 --> 00:47:31.440 of actors out here that's not getting paid anything, 00:47:31.559 --> 00:47:35.920 but you want to be an actor, but you can't make 00:47:35.920 --> 00:47:38.940 it off of the money that you're making or from. 00:47:39.619 --> 00:47:41.960 a project or commercial every here and there. 00:47:43.420 --> 00:47:46.300 It's a lot of actors, even Taraji was talking 00:47:46.300 --> 00:47:49.260 about it. She's like, I work all the time. It's 00:47:49.260 --> 00:47:51.800 not because I want to. Being an actor is emotionally 00:47:51.800 --> 00:47:54.960 draining. Sometimes it's physically draining. 00:47:55.440 --> 00:47:57.420 Do you want to have to work back to back to back 00:47:57.420 --> 00:47:59.260 to back to back? No, you want to be able to give 00:47:59.260 --> 00:48:01.900 your body some rest mentally, physically, spiritually, 00:48:02.099 --> 00:48:06.280 emotionally, but you can't. You're blessed to 00:48:06.280 --> 00:48:10.019 have a job. But then it's like, do I want to 00:48:10.019 --> 00:48:13.559 do this? The happiness is gone. That's why a 00:48:13.559 --> 00:48:16.659 lot of people do theater. It's wonderful. Do 00:48:16.659 --> 00:48:24.840 you make any money? Broadway. Still. Are you 00:48:24.840 --> 00:48:29.219 really making money? The thing just blows up. 00:48:29.619 --> 00:48:31.599 You might still just be doing it at the local 00:48:31.599 --> 00:48:34.099 theater. But honestly, to be completely real 00:48:34.099 --> 00:48:38.719 with you, I feel like that philosophy. You can 00:48:38.719 --> 00:48:42.340 tailor it to any profession, doctor, whatever. 00:48:43.599 --> 00:48:45.659 And I feel like the outcome is always going to 00:48:45.659 --> 00:48:47.619 be the same, which is the money part. Yeah, you're 00:48:47.619 --> 00:48:49.800 making money, but are you making enough money 00:48:49.800 --> 00:48:55.349 to live in the United States? True. True, true, 00:48:55.369 --> 00:48:57.070 true. So there was other things that go into 00:48:57.070 --> 00:49:00.969 it. It's a whole chart that it goes off of. So 00:49:00.969 --> 00:49:02.849 under the what you love, you think about what's 00:49:02.849 --> 00:49:04.909 your passion. What is your mission? Why are you 00:49:04.909 --> 00:49:08.030 doing this? What you're good at, professionalism. 00:49:08.030 --> 00:49:12.050 And then that over comes with passion as well. 00:49:13.909 --> 00:49:17.750 You have, can you get paid for it? Professionalism, 00:49:17.750 --> 00:49:20.829 vocation. What does the world need that goes 00:49:20.829 --> 00:49:24.889 into your mission, vocation? So everything intertwines. 00:49:24.889 --> 00:49:26.949 It's just circle on circle on circle. And then 00:49:26.949 --> 00:49:29.670 outside of that, you think feeling useless, but 00:49:29.670 --> 00:49:35.150 also satisfied is in these little blocks. Like 00:49:35.150 --> 00:49:38.269 a Venn diagram. Yeah. Yeah. Feeling comfortable, 00:49:38.309 --> 00:49:42.230 but empty. People do that all the time. Yeah. 00:49:42.349 --> 00:49:46.090 People stay in jobs a nine to five all the time. 00:49:46.170 --> 00:49:48.250 Do I want to do this? No, but I have benefits. 00:49:48.699 --> 00:49:50.800 I got a family to take care of. It's consistent. 00:49:50.940 --> 00:49:54.059 I know I have a check coming. But you feel empty. 00:49:54.119 --> 00:49:56.800 You're not getting anything out of it. You have 00:49:56.800 --> 00:50:01.380 excited and self -approval, but uncertain. I'm 00:50:01.380 --> 00:50:05.539 excited about this, but is this what people want 00:50:05.539 --> 00:50:10.039 to see? Is it what the world needs? You have 00:50:10.039 --> 00:50:14.079 happy and fulfilled with no wealth. Everything 00:50:14.079 --> 00:50:19.289 comes in there. So if you can find The middle, 00:50:19.289 --> 00:50:25.469 that is icky guy. But honestly, I don't feel 00:50:25.469 --> 00:50:29.489 like there's not one thing that a person can 00:50:29.489 --> 00:50:33.909 do that will actually pinpoint all of that. I 00:50:33.909 --> 00:50:37.010 feel like there's one thing that can cover three 00:50:37.010 --> 00:50:39.829 of those things that will lead you to another 00:50:39.829 --> 00:50:43.320 thing. Because nobody just does one thing anymore. 00:50:43.579 --> 00:50:46.460 One thing is always a chain reaction. Okay, I'm 00:50:46.460 --> 00:50:48.900 doing this to open this door so that I can get 00:50:48.900 --> 00:50:52.940 to this so that I can do this. But again, that 00:50:52.940 --> 00:50:57.780 might just be, like you said, a Western way of 00:50:57.780 --> 00:51:00.480 thinking, an American way of thinking. Yes, I'm 00:51:00.480 --> 00:51:02.000 going to get back to that. I'm going to sum it 00:51:02.000 --> 00:51:04.039 up with that. Because then there's another step. 00:51:04.559 --> 00:51:08.760 There's 10 rules to icky guy. This right here. 00:51:10.539 --> 00:51:14.199 I don't know who made this up. I don't know who 00:51:14.199 --> 00:51:20.920 made this up. You might not need this. Oh, okay. 00:51:21.320 --> 00:51:26.219 It says it. Sketch note by who? I don't even 00:51:26.219 --> 00:51:30.039 know their names. Hector Garcia and Francie Morales. 00:51:31.179 --> 00:51:35.440 They don't sound like Japanese people. I'm not 00:51:35.440 --> 00:51:37.980 doing this. I'm not reading this. Garcia and 00:51:37.980 --> 00:51:41.219 Morales. that's why they were like this is the 00:51:41.219 --> 00:51:49.719 western oh this is just their chart oh but there's 00:51:49.719 --> 00:51:52.820 certain things that go into it you said that 00:51:52.820 --> 00:51:56.440 that's the western way of thinking it definitely 00:51:56.440 --> 00:52:01.099 is because when i was doing the research and 00:52:01.099 --> 00:52:03.539 there was more japanese people coming up talking 00:52:03.539 --> 00:52:07.099 they're like It's not the secret to all happiness, 00:52:07.199 --> 00:52:09.480 but it's what makes you happy in that moment. 00:52:10.139 --> 00:52:13.480 So if you're asking people, what's your ikigai? 00:52:14.460 --> 00:52:18.559 Then you might say sleep. Because that is what's 00:52:18.559 --> 00:52:21.719 going to bring you happiness. You're tired. I'm 00:52:21.719 --> 00:52:23.699 going to do that.

It's like it's 00:58:21.860 --> 00:58:23.599 the secret to going to work and not feeling like 00:58:23.599 --> 00:58:27.340 it's work. If I go to work, I love my job. I 00:58:27.340 --> 00:58:29.800 never feel like I'm working right now. I feel 00:58:29.800 --> 00:58:34.280 like I'm working. OK. Mm hmm. So boom. So I was 00:58:34.280 --> 00:58:36.219 like, okay, I like that concept. And then it 00:58:36.219 --> 00:58:41.300 rolled on. It kept going. Just by chance. Nothing 00:58:41.300 --> 00:58:46.659 planned. But I was in the car evacuating. Excuse 00:58:46.659 --> 00:58:51.340 me. And there was a podcast on. It was by Mel 00:58:51.340 --> 00:58:57.679 Robbins. Excuse me. We are not. We ain't shout 00:58:57.679 --> 00:59:00.300 nobody out on this podcast. Well, I got to say 00:59:00.300 --> 00:59:02.389 it because they go, no. Where this theory came 00:59:02.389 --> 00:59:05.610 from. And some of the stuff I say is her stuff. 00:59:06.469 --> 00:59:10.070 So I'm going to give you the shout out. But her 00:59:10.070 --> 00:59:14.670 whole theory was to stop trying to force people 00:59:14.670 --> 00:59:19.630 to do what you want them to do. Yeah. I tell 00:59:19.630 --> 00:59:23.110 you that all the time. Yes, but you don't follow 00:59:23.110 --> 00:59:26.269 it. I'll give you an example. Not yet. Give me 00:59:26.269 --> 00:59:31.550 an example. It also said You are wasting time 00:59:31.550 --> 00:59:36.789 and energy focusing on forcing people to meet 00:59:36.789 --> 00:59:40.969 your expectations. Yeah. I tell you that all 00:59:40.969 --> 00:59:44.110 the time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But it sounds different 00:59:44.110 --> 00:59:53.530 for Mel. Her name is Mel. I picked up on what 00:59:53.530 --> 00:59:56.579 she was putting out. the character I wrote for 00:59:56.579 --> 00:59:58.860 you in the web series name is Mel you've been 00:59:58.860 --> 01:00:01.579 telling me this all along is that a sign that 01:00:01.579 --> 01:00:04.699 we should put out my web series please enough 01:00:04.699 --> 01:00:06.519 of this web series because I've been telling 01:00:06.519 --> 01:00:10.199 you to put out the fucking web series for literally 01:00:10.199 --> 01:00:14.639 years now oh my gosh I think that's a sign oh 01:00:14.639 --> 01:00:17.280 wait but is it also a sign that I'm watching 01:00:17.280 --> 01:00:20.659 Tubi and that you should put it out on Tubi no 01:00:20.659 --> 01:00:23.639 that's not a sign because you're always watching 01:00:23.639 --> 01:00:27.409 Tubi When are you not watching Tubi? And if Instagram 01:00:27.409 --> 01:00:30.210 or TikTok gets banned, you're going to watch 01:00:30.210 --> 01:00:33.849 Tubi even more. TikTok is getting banned. Okay, 01:00:33.889 --> 01:00:38.539 so look. Okay. Not to jump. Shit. But I just 01:00:38.539 --> 01:00:39.820 want to say this and then go back to what you 01:00:39.820 --> 01:00:42.340 were saying. TikTok is getting banned in the 01:00:42.340 --> 01:00:45.260 US, but somebody, I don't know if it's true because 01:00:45.260 --> 01:00:48.539 I saw it on TikTok, but a guy who said he used 01:00:48.539 --> 01:00:51.460 to work for TikTok said, yes, it'll be banned, 01:00:51.579 --> 01:00:54.199 but it'll still be available if you already have 01:00:54.199 --> 01:00:57.239 the app. Like after the ban date, if you try 01:00:57.239 --> 01:00:59.320 to go in and download it, you're not going to 01:00:59.320 --> 01:01:00.519 be able to download it because it's not going 01:01:00.519 --> 01:01:02.599 to be available to download. Now, with that being 01:01:02.599 --> 01:01:07.889 said, we won't be able to update. And eventually, 01:01:07.949 --> 01:01:10.050 because we won't be able to update it and do 01:01:10.050 --> 01:01:12.710 all that other stuff, it eventually won't be 01:01:12.710 --> 01:01:16.590 available at all. But as of immediately, it'll 01:01:16.590 --> 01:01:19.989 still be up. So what you're telling me is this 01:01:19.989 --> 01:01:29.070 is Angry Birds all over again? Yes. Yes. Because 01:01:29.070 --> 01:01:31.190 I remember that. People was like, you got Angry 01:01:31.190 --> 01:01:35.150 Birds? You got the first one? No. They got it. 01:01:35.610 --> 01:01:40.340 Yes. Oh, TikTok is Angry Birds. Dang, we old. 01:01:40.440 --> 01:01:42.559 I don't think nobody know what Angry Birds is. 01:01:42.820 --> 01:01:45.119 The OGs do. The ones that had the first one do. 01:01:45.699 --> 01:01:49.739 And you wouldn't know because it's gone. So the 01:01:49.739 --> 01:01:55.519 new people won't know what TikTok is. Or at least 01:01:55.519 --> 01:01:57.659 the people in the US won't know what TikTok is. 01:01:57.980 --> 01:02:00.400 Because everyone else is using it for educational 01:02:00.400 --> 01:02:04.480 purposes. So my question is, how can I access 01:02:05.719 --> 01:02:10.559 The international TikTok. They don't want us 01:02:10.559 --> 01:02:13.119 having it. Like if I'm traveling, okay, hear 01:02:13.119 --> 01:02:16.179 me out. If I'm traveling, let's just say I move 01:02:16.179 --> 01:02:20.260 out the country or I'm traveling or whatever. 01:02:20.380 --> 01:02:23.059 No, I moved out the country, but I still got 01:02:23.059 --> 01:02:26.719 my phone. I still got my phone. I should be able 01:02:26.719 --> 01:02:28.760 to access the apps they got. How do I do that? 01:02:30.400 --> 01:02:32.579 All my hackers that are listening, please hit 01:02:32.579 --> 01:02:35.820 DM. Put it in the chat.

Let us know how 01:02:48.860 --> 01:02:52.400 we can get international TikTok. And I'm not 01:02:52.400 --> 01:02:55.400 going to clip this because they might take it 01:02:55.400 --> 01:03:01.619 down. Interesting. All right. Let them theory. 01:03:05.400 --> 01:03:12.579 It was like, you want to go or you want. Let 01:03:12.579 --> 01:03:16.159 me think. I'm trying not to use her examples, 01:03:16.239 --> 01:03:22.800 but you want to go on vacation. And no, no, no, 01:03:22.800 --> 01:03:26.980 no, no, no. Say your homegirl wants to date a 01:03:26.980 --> 01:03:32.619 guy. You know, he's trash. You have high expectations 01:03:32.619 --> 01:03:37.219 for her. You are working for her to not talk 01:03:37.219 --> 01:03:39.920 to this man, okay? Everything is going. You're 01:03:39.920 --> 01:03:42.380 worrying about it. She wants to see him. Why 01:03:42.380 --> 01:03:47.500 are you spending your time worrying? Let them. 01:03:51.099 --> 01:03:54.900 Let them. If you want to go and you want to do 01:03:54.900 --> 01:03:58.599 whatever, let you. Because I can't waste my energy. 01:03:59.139 --> 01:04:01.519 Give me another example because I feel like that 01:04:01.519 --> 01:04:04.159 example. Your coochie is your coochie.

But as your friend, you know, 01:04:08.800 --> 01:04:11.780 you're trying not to. Your friend wants to go 01:04:11.780 --> 01:04:17.260 on a diet. She's trying to go get some junk food. 01:04:17.559 --> 01:04:24.119 She's trying to go get a sandwich. I hear that. 01:04:24.400 --> 01:04:28.119 With chips and fries and a Snickers.

I believe it can be something. But Tamika 01:06:07.440 --> 01:06:10.059 keeps procrastinating. Tamika's hard -headed. 01:06:10.619 --> 01:06:13.380 Tamika's hard -headed. Tamika ain't doing it. 01:06:14.420 --> 01:06:25.300 Let them. Cuss her out. That's my love language. 01:06:25.820 --> 01:06:28.719 That's your love language. Speaking of that, 01:06:28.800 --> 01:06:32.480 I'm going to tell you something. What you got 01:06:32.480 --> 01:06:34.880 to tell me? Oh, I'm going to tell you something. 01:06:35.880 --> 01:06:41.199 What you got to tell me? Okay. Let them. Theory. 01:06:41.599 --> 01:06:47.400 Okay. I was talking to a guy. New guy. I said, 01:06:47.480 --> 01:06:49.699 do you know what your love language is? He said, 01:06:49.760 --> 01:07:02.090 yes. Physical touch. Okay. gifts okay and quality 01:07:02.090 --> 01:07:06.710 time oh okay that's what you tell me you didn't 01:07:06.710 --> 01:07:10.570 ask me what mine were but I'm gonna respond and 01:07:10.570 --> 01:07:12.469 tell you what mine are because that's how conversation 01:07:12.469 --> 01:07:15.570 works and I feel like naturally you should have 01:07:15.570 --> 01:07:18.949 asked me I think naturally you only ask if you 01:07:18.949 --> 01:07:22.929 care apparently you didn't but you know what 01:07:22.929 --> 01:07:25.269 I'm gonna come here and tell you anyway so what'd 01:07:25.269 --> 01:07:29.170 you say I said, you know, it's a toss up for 01:07:29.170 --> 01:07:32.769 me because physical touch for sure. I need words 01:07:32.769 --> 01:07:38.250 of affirmation. I don't really need gifts. Like 01:07:38.250 --> 01:07:44.070 that's not my thing. If like, write me a card. 01:07:44.130 --> 01:07:47.550 I prefer a card or, you know, something of sentimental 01:07:47.550 --> 01:07:50.409 value. I don't need you to go spend money. If 01:07:50.409 --> 01:07:53.670 you want to spend money on me, pay my rent or 01:07:53.670 --> 01:07:56.329 pay my car note. Because that's going to help 01:07:56.329 --> 01:07:59.949 me. That right there. Like, I don't need the 01:07:59.949 --> 01:08:04.190 other stuff. And he responds, so you just said, 01:08:04.250 --> 01:08:11.210 fuck my love language? Why did you ask? Wait, 01:08:11.269 --> 01:08:15.130 no, wait. There was more. Wait. He said, you 01:08:15.130 --> 01:08:19.689 asked what was my love language. So you basically 01:08:19.689 --> 01:08:22.090 said, fuck my love language? And I'm like, excuse 01:08:22.090 --> 01:08:29.020 me? in other words he's saying you asked me i 01:08:29.020 --> 01:08:32.760 asked you for sure but also you said fuck my 01:08:32.760 --> 01:08:36.060 ass i was like wait a minute when you figure 01:08:36.060 --> 01:08:37.979 out your love language it's how you like to be 01:08:37.979 --> 01:08:41.100 loved how you want to be loved correct or yeah 01:08:41.100 --> 01:08:44.399 that's what it means just someone else yeah uh 01:08:44.399 --> 01:08:49.680 well no no love language is how you want to be 01:08:49.680 --> 01:08:55.010 loved i thought about that because then I googled 01:08:55.010 --> 01:08:57.649 it because I was like oh well maybe I'm wrong 01:08:57.649 --> 01:09:00.069 because I said oh no no I wasn't saying fuck 01:09:00.069 --> 01:09:02.810 yours I was saying because I didn't want to be 01:09:02.810 --> 01:09:06.090 rude yeah apparently you got you took offense 01:09:06.090 --> 01:09:09.449 by mine right and I'm like oh no I didn't say 01:09:09.449 --> 01:09:12.670 that I just I'm not a gift person I that's not 01:09:12.670 --> 01:09:15.189 mine that's not how I need to receive it because 01:09:15.189 --> 01:09:18.750 that's when you took the test it said how you 01:09:18.750 --> 01:09:22.659 like to be loved yeah because it asks you questions 01:09:22.659 --> 01:09:25.859 about yourself exactly and then that's that's 01:09:25.859 --> 01:09:28.359 why like couples these are my love languages 01:09:28.359 --> 01:09:30.560 I like gifts so the other person gifts may not 01:09:30.560 --> 01:09:33.220 hold on hold on okay you just said these are 01:09:33.220 --> 01:09:37.039 my love languages I like gifts yeah so it told 01:09:37.039 --> 01:09:39.420 you what your love language how you like to receive 01:09:39.420 --> 01:09:43.739 love yeah so when he said gift giving I said 01:09:43.739 --> 01:09:47.060 oh well you know mine isn't I'm not really big 01:09:47.060 --> 01:09:53.390 on gifts right So he's like, you know, if I see 01:09:53.390 --> 01:09:55.810 something that I want you to have, then I buy 01:09:55.810 --> 01:09:58.050 it. It was like a whole back and forth thing. 01:09:58.270 --> 01:10:02.949 Wait, what? Over fucking love languages? One, 01:10:02.989 --> 01:10:05.189 I don't even know why you know your love language. 01:10:05.569 --> 01:10:08.029 I prefer my man not to know what the fuck a love 01:10:08.029 --> 01:10:13.630 language is. Wait a minute. Can we rewind this 01:10:13.630 --> 01:10:18.689 back? If I see something I want you to have. 01:10:20.780 --> 01:10:26.279 You feel me? You feel me? Then I buy it for you. 01:10:30.659 --> 01:10:34.819 Oh, wait. Maybe that does make sense. If the 01:10:34.819 --> 01:10:37.380 love language is gift giving or receiving gifts. 01:10:37.899 --> 01:10:44.460 Let me Google it. Yeah. Maybe it's gift giving 01:10:44.460 --> 01:10:47.020 because then there's words of affirmation. But 01:10:47.020 --> 01:10:50.500 when you take it, it says. It's for you. This 01:10:50.500 --> 01:10:53.460 is what you like to do. What you like to do or 01:10:53.460 --> 01:10:56.819 how you like to receive love? It should be how 01:10:56.819 --> 01:11:00.180 you like to receive love. Am I tripping? I thought 01:11:00.180 --> 01:11:05.060 it was how you like to receive love. So I thought 01:11:05.060 --> 01:11:07.340 it was that. So I was like, oh, so you like gifts, 01:11:07.520 --> 01:11:11.520 which I don't mind. I like giving gifts. Especially 01:11:11.520 --> 01:11:15.140 if it's a man because I want you to use whatever 01:11:15.140 --> 01:11:19.330 I give you. Okay. Words of affirmation. quality 01:11:19.330 --> 01:11:23.710 time, acts of service, gifts. It doesn't say 01:11:23.710 --> 01:11:25.930 giving or receiving. It just says gifts and then 01:11:25.930 --> 01:11:29.949 physical touch. But is it, is my language is 01:11:29.949 --> 01:11:31.890 how I like to receive it or how I like to use 01:11:31.890 --> 01:11:35.430 it? It should be how, the way I perceived it 01:11:35.430 --> 01:11:39.390 is if I'm taking this and this is my love language, 01:11:39.630 --> 01:11:44.149 this is how I like to be loved. By getting gifts. 01:11:44.390 --> 01:11:47.550 Yeah. Okay. So when he said that, I thought you 01:11:47.550 --> 01:11:49.960 like gifts. And then I was saying, I don't really 01:11:49.960 --> 01:11:56.399 like gifts. Oh, but he, but he said, oh, so you 01:11:56.399 --> 01:11:59.079 just say, fuck my love language, how I want to 01:11:59.079 --> 01:12:03.119 love. Oh, and that's what I was like, no. That's 01:12:03.119 --> 01:12:07.699 a red flag already because just because you want 01:12:07.699 --> 01:12:10.180 to love me like that, that's, that's, that's 01:12:10.180 --> 01:12:13.859 not working for me. And he was like upset. Especially 01:12:13.859 --> 01:12:16.539 if I'm telling you, okay, this is how I like 01:12:16.539 --> 01:12:20.800 to be loved. If I don't really care for material 01:12:20.800 --> 01:12:25.840 gifts and you constantly get me material gifts, 01:12:26.159 --> 01:12:29.119 that's showing you're not listening. Our listening 01:12:29.119 --> 01:12:31.560 skills are off. Our listening skills is off already 01:12:31.560 --> 01:12:34.579 because we couldn't figure out if it's give or 01:12:34.579 --> 01:12:40.199 take. And communication is key. So back to the 01:12:40.199 --> 01:12:46.380 theory. I cannot waste my energy and focus my 01:12:46.380 --> 01:12:52.310 time On having you meet my expectations. So I'm 01:12:52.310 --> 01:12:56.449 going to let him. You should have led with that 01:12:56.449 --> 01:12:58.449 one. That's the only one that made sense. I'm 01:12:58.449 --> 01:13:02.329 going to let him. Listen. You should have led 01:13:02.329 --> 01:13:05.970 with that one. Listen. This shit is wild. Needless 01:13:05.970 --> 01:13:10.390 to say. He unmatched with me. I'm pretty sure. 01:13:10.449 --> 01:13:13.210 After I didn't respond back. I was like I can't 01:13:13.210 --> 01:13:15.989 with this. I can't buy her no gift. Fuck her. 01:13:16.460 --> 01:13:18.159 I don't even know where we left yet. I was just 01:13:18.159 --> 01:13:21.319 like, that's not what I meant. Like, oh, I can't. 01:13:21.520 --> 01:13:29.319 I can't. It's too much. Let them. You're not 01:13:29.319 --> 01:13:34.779 in my icky guy. Okay? You're not in there. And 01:13:34.779 --> 01:13:41.020 right now, I'm being strategic with my time and 01:13:41.020 --> 01:13:47.619 my energy. So that way, I can icky guy it. And 01:13:47.619 --> 01:13:49.180 I feel like that's how we should end this podcast. 01:13:49.680 --> 01:13:51.899 You make me want to be my cousin so bad. On a 01:13:51.899 --> 01:14:02.779 positive note. Speaking of that, our Airbnb has 01:14:02.779 --> 01:14:08.680 a meditation room. I love that. Maybe I need 01:14:08.680 --> 01:14:11.619 that to put the positive things in the air to 01:14:11.619 --> 01:14:16.500 like bring the wind and bring the rain. and clean 01:14:16.500 --> 01:14:22.199 la and no bad jujus now she thinks she a witch 01:14:22.199 --> 01:14:26.920 doctor girl the rebuilding i just want the fires 01:14:26.920 --> 01:14:31.840 to be over yeah same i just want them to be over 01:14:31.840 --> 01:14:36.220 this is so surreal and honestly the content that 01:14:36.220 --> 01:14:39.579 we had for y 'all it's gonna have to be put on 01:14:39.579 --> 01:14:42.479 pause because it wasn't there we're not doing 01:14:42.479 --> 01:14:45.560 that We're not doing that. I mean, we'll, we'll 01:14:45.560 --> 01:14:49.239 release it later, but the content that we had 01:14:49.239 --> 01:14:50.800 planned is definitely going to have to be put 01:14:50.800 --> 01:14:55.439 on pause because, and I'm just going to say this 01:14:55.439 --> 01:14:58.380 and then I'm gonna leave it alone. I can't tell 01:14:58.380 --> 01:15:00.859 people what to post, how to post, how to feel 01:15:00.859 --> 01:15:05.520 about certain things. But I also feel like we 01:15:05.520 --> 01:15:09.079 know what a fire looks like. We get it. We get 01:15:09.079 --> 01:15:13.609 it. But what we do need to see more of on social 01:15:13.609 --> 01:15:16.750 media is resources. Where can I go for this? 01:15:16.869 --> 01:15:20.069 I love that. Out of all of this, that's what 01:15:20.069 --> 01:15:22.210 I'm feeling good about. They're like volunteer 01:15:22.210 --> 01:15:25.470 opportunities. People are giving back. If you 01:15:25.470 --> 01:15:27.189 want to come down, bring some clothes, bring 01:15:27.189 --> 01:15:30.409 some food. Like, yes, I'm looking for somewhere 01:15:30.409 --> 01:15:34.090 to volunteer. Baby, look, we know. That's the 01:15:34.090 --> 01:15:37.829 only thing. That's the only thing pulling my 01:15:37.829 --> 01:15:41.869 heartstrings because the news. I can't watch 01:15:41.869 --> 01:15:44.949 the news. Honey, we know what a fire look like. 01:15:45.250 --> 01:15:50.909 And again, not trying to be funny. People can 01:15:50.909 --> 01:15:56.109 post whatever they want.

Like, I grew up here. I 01:16:40.000 --> 01:16:42.460 raised my children here. We have no pictures. 01:16:43.359 --> 01:16:55.560 And then AltaDina. It's bad. It's bad.

Icky guy. That has 01:17:22.100 --> 01:17:28.979 resources. Girl, shut up. That's all I'm saying. 01:17:31.279 --> 01:17:35.079 Icky guy.

And on that note, 01:17:45.909 --> 01:17:51.590 we have reached unpopular opinions with JoJo. 01:17:52.750 --> 01:17:57.729 Oh, she said with JoJo. Period. Because Tamika 01:17:57.729 --> 01:18:00.130 be playing and she don't be wanting to do an 01:18:00.130 --> 01:18:04.850 unpopular. She gave us one. I can give you an 01:18:04.850 --> 01:18:07.500 unpopular opinion. Okay, and I'll save this one 01:18:07.500 --> 01:18:11.300 for the next one. Go ahead. Welcome to Unpopular 01:18:11.300 --> 01:18:17.699 Opinion with JoJo and Tamika. Tamika! My unpopular 01:18:17.699 --> 01:18:23.500 opinion is that the fires started from the government. 01:18:25.359 --> 01:18:32.239 Now, this is the thing. My mind is saying Republican. 01:18:33.340 --> 01:18:35.800 Or something like that, because I don't know. 01:18:35.880 --> 01:18:39.739 But then I can also think, oh, could it be Democrats? 01:18:41.260 --> 01:18:44.260 Because Trump is about to take over and all this 01:18:44.260 --> 01:18:47.899 shit that he'd have to walk into? Or is it Don 01:18:47.899 --> 01:18:51.100 Don's plan to come over and come and save the 01:18:51.100 --> 01:18:58.060 day? But something's not bad enough. And I stand 01:18:58.060 --> 01:19:02.130 by that. And on that note, we may be canceled 01:19:02.130 --> 01:19:05.890 after this episode. No. It's just an opinion. 01:19:06.970 --> 01:19:11.210 It's unpopular. It's unpopular. You know what? 01:19:11.350 --> 01:19:15.029 I feel it. It's too many things.
