special guests. Entrepreneur influencer creative Patty Torres is in the building.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
Hey, how are you good? Good?
Speaker 3 (00:29):
We was before we started rolling, guys, we was.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
A jazz gust brought kool Aid. Well, we had kool Aid.
And let me tell you something, if you ain't had
kool Aid in a.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
While, yeah, you're definitely gonna get me hooked into this.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
It's like I can't remember the last time I had it.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Like, I promise you too, I will be shocked if
the last and the next week you don't bring home
a pack of kool Aid.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
I know my kids are gonna be like, why, mom,
you're drinking kool Aid again.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
I know this dish has never been done on this show,
and we've a one hundred and like fifteen episodes at
this point, so really, yes, oh wow, So tell our
listeners what you will be having me eat today.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Okay, so this is a tuna salad something quick. But
it's so good really, and it makes you're not hungry,
like you get full and then you want more. It's
kind of diicting.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Yeah, well tell us the ingredients, because if this was
super broken, definitely affording you definitely broke.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
Yes, you could definitely afford this if you're broke. It's
just one tune I can and then tomato and the
audience and the corn and then I mix it with
the meal and then you eat it with some chips.
So you should love the cheese ruffles. But this one's good.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
I was looking at them, like, damn, I wonder what
I thought?
Speaker 3 (01:47):
You just want a plane?
Speaker 2 (01:48):
I was like, no, I love the cheese one. So
with those, those are like slimmy, those are okay.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
So guys, listeners at home today we have the plane.
But if you do this at home, do the cheese.
What is the cheese cheddar cheese cheddar cheese cheddar ruffles.
I was looking at it. She choosing the plane one
look at the list man.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Probably she missed the cheese part.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
She missed the cheese part. I promise you.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Okay, well go ahead start preparing this dish. And guys,
you don't need a stove top for this dish.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Okay, we got the you're doing the tomatoes, dumb the
tuna first, and she did drain the tuna.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Guys, Yes, I did. I did. Be careful. You always
want to be careful. You don't cut.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Yourself, yes, because you know Nope.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
And make sure you have a can opener because I know,
like if I didn't have one before, I would use
the knife.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
And be like, oh my goodness, so dangerous. I remember
we were taping in Atlanta with eighty five South, and
I don't know why we were all being lazy instead
of running to the kitchen. But DC young fly saws
like trying to do it with a knife, and he
was like, absolutely not.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
No one's cutting the soap, stealing this show. E.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Sometimes if you don't have money or do what you
gotta do, or yeah, you just go that old way.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
That's you know what it's like.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
You make you ready to make a tuna sandwich at
home and realize you can't find a thing.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
You're like, oh my god, but and you're hungry.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
You like, we're gonna get it open, but all means necessary.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Okay, so tuna. Then you're gonna chop up the tomato
and onion and just dump it in with me.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
But it's so good because a lot of people don't
do it like this. A lot of people just put
some onions, or they put other stuff, or they don't
add the corn, so it doesn't give it that flavor.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
So I'm curious if I would end up doing this
on like, because when I do a tuna sandwich, I
do it really plain.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
I just do the mao and the tuna with salt
and pepper.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
It's like too simple.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
So I'm just wondering, can you take the same dish
and just like, instead of eating or not, just put.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
It on the sandwich on the sandwich.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Yes, I'm dying to try it.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Usually when I had more money, you like, I eat
it with white rice, oh yeah, and then or either
the chips or the white rice.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
M hm, with the with the white rice being warm though, yes,
and then everything else being cold. Correct Okay, Oh yeah,
I was I forgot to pick up the rice.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Sorry about that. No, it's okay, because if I didn't
do the rice, I do the chips. But now I
even do the rice together with the chips. It's still
so good. Yeah, I promise you. Even my kids like this,
I got them into this, wow.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
And then I do do things with this nails because
people think like, oh, you don't do anything. I do
everything with my nails. Everything is possible.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
That's funny, Okay, So take me back to what was
going on during the time of tuna.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
What do we call this? It looked like tuna nachos?
What do we call this? What are you calling this dish?
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Just just a tuna salad, tuna chips, Tuna and chips,
Tuna and chips.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
That's what we call it.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
We gotta we gotta call it something, right, I was
definitely thinking it was tuna nachos, but just without the cheese.
But take me back to what was going on during
this era of invention.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
You know what, I moved out of my house when
I was eighteen. You know, I always been very independent.
I lived with my mom. My mom was a single mom.
My dad was in Costa Rica, so I was living
with her. But when I was eighteen, I wanted to
leave my house and I moved out with a boyfriend.
Back then, and I didn't even sleep in a room
(05:25):
or anything. We would sleep like in a living room
with like all his brothers and stuff.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
You moved out to your mama's house to go live there?
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Yeah, I did. I did, Okay, I did well?
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Because you were in love because it was hard at home.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
I think, you know, what if my mom, if we
would have been closer, I probably would have not moved
out of my house. You know. That's something like I
never really share ever out here by me and her,
Like we don't have the best relationship, but I do.
I'm very grateful for her and everything you know, she
did for me. But I think like if we were closer,
(06:00):
I would have not moved out of my house. And yeah,
I was in love. You know, when you're young and dumb,
you're in love. So you're like you'll find like living
with that guy even under the bridge, like if it
was like, you know, like a four season hotel or
something like that. Yeah. So yeah, so that's what happened.
And you know, and then I started working. Well, actually
(06:23):
I've been working since I was fifteen, when I was
in high school. My first job was at McDonald's as
a cashier. So I always had that in me, like
I always been like a hardworking person, Like I'm not lazy,
you know, So I wasn't afraid of like, oh, I'll
go work and find find work. But you know, we
did have to eat whatever was my boyfriend's house and
whatever but I'm from Costa Rica, so in Costa Rica
(06:47):
we have different tunas than over here, you know. So
but then they kind of make the tuna like how
I did? How I do it? Right now, I'm kind
of doing it, you know a little bit. So this
was always like if we if I didn't have money,
I'm like, hey, that's it's so good and it's cheap,
so I would just eat it. Yeah mm hmm.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
Now you got the onion. Now, I'm not a huge
fan of onions.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
So now I'll put a little bit. That's a little bit.
I'll put your like three.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
However you make it, I'm gonna try it because you
be surprised.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
I want you to try it. I'll just put a
little bit.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
I've tried crazy things on the show.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Really.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Oh wow, everyone knows my most hated dish is the
pickled egg.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
That was the only dish on this show that I
couldn't make it through.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
I don't like pickles. Ei their side, I don't.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
Know, imagine a pickled egg. Oh wow, absolutely discussing. Are
you sure you canna do.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
This with them?
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Now?
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Yes? This is hard because if I cut it the
other way, people are gonna be like that's not how
you cut it. They say you're supposed to cut it.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
It's audio girl, cut it whatever the way that makes
us live. You know what, I'll cut the knife. Yeah,
that's knife probably, Oh girl watching, you know, I'm.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Good, I'm not scared. I'll use this little one since
I'm only gonna use a little bit of onions.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
Okay, good, there you go, Thank goodness, there you go.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
All right, Yeah, you could just put all that stuff
in this little yeah, back right here. So you're over
there loving it up with boo thing in a house
with all the homies, all the brothers.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Right, Okay, so what happens? You know what I was like,
I don't think I ever found myself at that time.
I was just kind of like, you know, because when
you're in love, you kinda tend to please the other
person and see, okay, where are we going? Where is this?
And you know, as women, we mature like more than
(08:45):
men quicker. So it's kind of struggling, you know. I
was just having different jobs all the time I've been
that time. When I was younger, I would have any
type of job. I would never be jobless, but I
have different type of jobs, always have receptionists. Oh my
god time. Nobody knows this. I ended up working as
a receptionist in a place that they do massages, but
(09:06):
I didn't know it was kind of weird massages with
a happy ending.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
I had no idea. I was like twenty or something.
But I was just a receptionist. Because the guys walked
in and then they would be like, I'm here for
the ad on the newspaper, and I'll be like okay,
and I'd have the prices of the massages, all innocent,
but then they would be like, oh, what kind of
girls do you have? And like and then girls will
(09:33):
walk in and be like, hey, I'm here to see
if you guys are are hiring. But I do everything
and I was like, what do you mean everything? And
then I did not. I quit after like a week.
But I had no idea. I was just a receptionist.
And then the owner started asking me because when I
was younger, like I was like, skinnier, prettier, you know everything,
(09:56):
what do.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
You down do?
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Yeah? And I was like, no, I I don't know
how to do massages. I don't and yeah, and then
like but the guys will ask, hey, do you do
massages too, and I'll be like no, you know, and
then the owner was like, you know, it's suspicious. They
was like it they were all Asian.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Yeah, you know, so it was like we were.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
And then I found out and I was like, I
can't work here. Yeah, yeah, this is not a good environment.
So I have all types of jobs.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
That's a crazy yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
I could have only imagine working in a job where
that goes down.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
So m hm.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
So after all these jobs, what is the thing that
takes you into the next direction towards entrepreneurship.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
And then you know, I did graduate from high school.
You know, I always I and my family from my
mom's side, everybody went to school. Everybody had that formation.
So I always wanted to have that because I was like,
you know, race like that, you know, finished school. Like
you know, I had a good childhood. I didn't have
like you know, I always had everything in regards to
(11:03):
material stuff. Maybe there were some things that I needed,
but I was always formed to go to school, finished this.
So even with some little problems here and there, I
still graduated from high school. And then I remember I
went to a clinic and I said, oh, I want
to be a medical assistant. So I did it. I'm
that type of person that if I say I'm gonna
(11:24):
do something, I do it like I put it out
there now I'm gonna go do it. So I went
to school, like a private school for medical assistant. I graduated,
and I started working in different clinics. So I entered
this new era of the medical field. I started working
with like you know, general doctors, pediatricians with everything. And
(11:46):
then I started then working with the for the county
life with the insurance and and stuff. And then I
kind of went into the PR department because they have
PR as well, it's crazy, you know, and then they
have case managing. I went into that level. And then
but I was getting burned out because I felt trapped,
like in a desk. I felt yeah, And then my
(12:09):
dad would always be like, this is not what you're doing.
This is not you. I look at you and I
see you doing bigger things. And when you're young, you're
like you brought your eyes your parents and like, oh
my god. No. But then I started watching the TLC,
like the wedding planning thing, and I went online and
I did a wedding planning thing and I said, now
(12:30):
I'm going to be a wedding planner, and I did.
So I started, like, you know, calling my friends or
like if I knew somebody was getting married, I'll be like,
I'll do it. I'll plan it for you, just pay
me this much. Then I met a lady. She had
like three venues to do parties, and I also told her, hey,
you know you do weddings, but you don't have a
wedding planner. Here, can I do three or four of
(12:51):
your weddings? And I did, and then all of a sudden,
I was booking halls and stuff. So I'm just always
trying to like wait, like you know, and that's what happened.
But one day I quit, and now I'm here.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
So you quit, you went from but you start, but
you okay, you quit the wedding planning.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Well, now that was like I was doing that on
the side from the medical field because I was on
the medical field like for over ten years, like ten years,
and now I was young.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
Now what are you doing exactly?
Speaker 2 (13:23):
So now I do public relations and now I do
marketing and branding, and then I work with the influencers.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Yeah, who are some of the people that he have
done public relations for?
Speaker 2 (13:45):
I work with this company. It's a promoter called Bobby
the Presents. I've been hired by Live Nation and AG
for the Influencer program. I work with restaurants, chefs, I
work with the working in the music industry. I have
the opportunity to work with big people that live here
(14:05):
in La you know, the king of the West Coast,
Snoop Dog exactly. So that was challenging for me because
I'm Latina. But when I grew up, I'm from the
two thousands over there in high school, so of course
I know all the music.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
I know that the.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Snoop that I skilled, the warrang the Eastsiders, all of that.
But then I remember when they look at me as
they're like, it's weird because it's like, she don't know
about this, I do, you know, because a lot of
people like they want to put me in this category
or she's only Latin. But then I know, like I.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
Know, yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
And I remember when we started working with Snoop with
Bobby de Presents, with this company, it was so amazing
because it was a black and brown together. And then
I remember Snoop was coming out with his new album
I Want to Thank Me, and it had been over
ten years since he dropped and a so I told Bobby, hey,
(15:02):
let's do a press conference and he's like, yeah, let's
do it, but I are you gonna be able to
pull it off? I'm like, oh my god. He was
so worried.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Of course, Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
And then they give me the worst date, which it
was these dates around the holidays, days before the media
would go in with their families. I had the most
challenging day to pull this day. I did it. I
did it. I did it. I pulled a good job.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
So is that how you started getting into prs by
working with Bobby D?
Speaker 2 (15:28):
Yes? By working with him? He we met one day.
I went to his office. He says, I like what
you do? You don't have much, but what I see
I like, and let's see. Let's go for it. He said,
I don't have nobody latin. I only have one black
girl doing the Bobby d Black TV. And I don't
know what happened in her, Like she left after I
(15:50):
got there. She left, I don't know, you know, and
then we grew together.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
Wow, awesome. So you still have relationships with that whole
like the Snoop Dogs and all those.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Yeah, we have Kings of the West November thirtieth. But
you know you'll see this next year. It was sold out,
Oh for real?
Speaker 3 (16:07):
Yeah, and you produce, you helped do the pr on it.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Yes, I do.
Speaker 3 (16:11):
That's awesome. And I'm guessing you're gonna need this.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Yes, mix everything corn, tomato and the onions. And you
want to like mix it so it could be like
really in you know, not just throw it there like separate.
You want to really mix it there so you can
have it really mixed together.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
I'm really curious.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Then I put salt because the salt gives it like
because if you don't put salt, it's a little dry,
you know. And this one was like the chunk the
water tuna. So I like the water, but I don't
mind the oil. But it's better if you drain it
because it gets to watery, you know, especially if you're
(16:50):
gonna mix it with chips or rice, you know. Okay,
So you put a little the salt before and then
you start putting the mail. After you put the salt
so you could give it some flavor, you know, mm hmm,
and then you start mixing it.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
See how it goes?
Speaker 1 (17:08):
So now, and I slowly want to get to the
thing that I'm most excited about, which is some of
your most recent adventures. So now you're still doing pr Yes,
and you're still working with the influencers and the artists.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
The thing that I really want to know is how
you started getting into Patty Pandulce cookies.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
You know what, I owed that to myself because everybody
would always be mad at me, Like the people close
to me, they'll be like, Okay, why don't you do
something for you? Come on, drop something, drop a hoodie,
drop a shirt, and I would just ignore it. But
Bobby D's office, they would call me Patty Pandulce. So
every time I would go pick up my check or something,
(17:52):
here she comes Patty Pandulce. And then that's I get.
Speaker 3 (17:57):
Too, because like you were the only Latino, well not.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
There was a few Latinas there, but I was sweet
and then I don't know them. I reminded them of
the Pandulce like I don't know, so it was, you know,
shut out to Booby. He started calling me that, and
then the whole office started calling me that. So I
thought I was super cute, you know, Paddy Panduluce and
the pandu. I love Pandulce is the Mexican bread, you know,
(18:21):
and people know them. They know them as Mexican bread
or conscirasty, you know either.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
That's what I learned about. I just started eating that
like in the last year.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
So yes, so I always said, you know, and they
just stayed like that. But one, I love unicorns and
I feel like they're so magical, so cute, like you know,
I was just like I've been like gravitated to them.
I like them, you know, and I will be like
Paddy pandul I'm like, imagine a unicorn eating a bandulce,
(18:55):
Like wow, like I never seen that. Nobody. It's not
even out there. There's no unicorns, and they're real, like,
you know, my dad says they're real. So I've been
saying that the curts are real.

So then I was like, the pandemic came and I
was like, I need to maybe start thinking about dropping something.
So I had a couple of people like at graphic Designers.
I was like, look, I wanted you on a corn
eating a conta and They're like, okay, so I have
a couple of sketches of the unicorns. The first ones
(22:05):
I one it was like the whole horse with just
the little horn but with eyelashes. But the I didn't
see like the bandulce, like because he was standing and like.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Your original thought was just merch. It wasn't even the
yet Okay, no, no, it was.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
The actually, so I said, oh my god, I don't
want to do makeup. I don't I want to do
I want to be different. I'm gonna do the bread.
So then the the artist they started sketching. Then he
didn't want to like going out of space, eating the
conca out of space like, but the little pandulsa was
like on the side, and I'm like, no, why don't
(22:48):
we do like a little cartoon one, like a fluffy
one but actually like holding it because I want him
or her? Yeah yeah, oh my gosh. I don't know
if you've seen the logo. I know she showed you
the logo. That's the logo of the So finally, my
friend Orlando, he's an amazing graphic designer. I told him
(23:10):
this is what I want. So when he finally sent
me the schedule, I was like, oh my God, this
is so cute. This is it. And it's wearing like
a little winky, like a little pajama thing, I don't know,
some little clothes with the little pandulas on and he's holding.
So now my next thought was like, okay, I'm not
(23:31):
a baker. I don't bake, but it's okay. It's my idea,
is my bision whatever. That's how people get great together.
So I was like, now I need somebody to make
this as unicorne colors. So it's the bandulus with unicorne colors.
And if you see the pandula it actually some of
them already have unicorne colors. You see the pink one,
(23:53):
you see like the green one, the pink one that
makes it so cool exactly. So now we got to
put it together and just be the flavor. And you know,
now I went to many bakeries before, and then I
tried so much mon do will say. I was already
full because I wanted to see like which one was,
like the best one, you know, and then go and
(24:14):
talk to them and things like that, you know, but
it just didn't happen. For some reason, I got more work.
I kind of lose track and ambition of the project.
Speaker 3 (24:24):
And this is all going on during the pandemic.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Yes, and then I didn't put my energy on the project,
so again another year nothing. Twenty twenty one was really
hard for me. I was going through like a separation
and everything, so again put into the back twenty twenty
two like a nasty breakup, like a toxic relationship, like
(24:46):
trying to put myself back together. And I still work
because nobody knows I'm going through things. I look like
a champ all the time. I could be following apart.
Nobody will know.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
But do you do you have like a soundboard at home,
like your girlfriends that are like keeping you.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
Yeah, or like I have people like be like don't
forget about you because here you are still working hustling,
and like what about you? And then I was like,
but what if I do this? Nobody likes it? Like
what stupid? Like all this idea because you're your worst
and of course like not even your haters and people
don't like it. It's you. You're the one that always
(25:21):
like you're so bad to yourself, you know. So finally,
just three months ago, I met Philippe. Philippe is the
founder and creator of Philippe's creations. He's a baker. He
(25:43):
does cakes and wonderful cookies. And he lives in Houston, Texas, not.
Speaker 3 (25:50):
Even here, so where'd you meet him?
Speaker 2 (25:52):
So I used to manage an influencer and he introduced
me to Philippe a couple of months ago, and he said, hey,
Felippe doesn't just want to be a baker. He has
good numbers on TikTok and he's very handsome, very smart.
And then I feel like, you guys maybe can work
together and maybe guide him, because having a manager is
(26:14):
not about just a brandials having a manager is like,
oh no, you need to talk this way like coach
and all these things. So I met with him. We
talked a little bit on the phone, but I'm nothing concrete.
Then I had some downtime and I contacted him and
then he signed under me under my talent agency, just
(26:34):
so we can see what we can do with him
as far as more opportunities or attending events or more exposure. Right,
So one day I said, hey, you know what, it's
so funny that you're a baker and he said why.
I'm like, because go girl, go Patty, go ahead.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
Do you elevate a pitch.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
Yeah, because you know what I been wanting to do
this Bandu s but I wanted it be like a unicorn.
You need uniquoncha you So that's what it's like, a
unique concha and I want it. I want it like
to make make like make it pretty this color is,
(27:15):
but make it magical like not just any like you know,
I imagine a unit corn eating a He's like, oh
my god, I love it. He didn't say no wow,
like no, like he took the time to listen to
my idea and stuff. And he's like, I don't do pandul,
but I have this band cookies and they're my top cellars.
(27:39):
So he has like this pink one and a brow
one because they when you make that powder, you can
make it taste like panduce, even if you do it
as a cookie or as whatever. So I said, okay,
so can you make the colors of the UNI like
a unicorn and make it taste like the bandu like
the whatever. He's like, yeah, let me send you some
(28:00):
samples and let's go. And I was like, I can't
believe I'm finally even sample like because I wasn't even moving.
So he sent me some colors, and he sent me
like five or six. He was quick about it.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
He's so all the way from Houston.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
Yes, okay, because his ships worldwide and stuff. And you know,
when you taste something good, that the person and this
is what the Pandula said with the cookies, with the cakes,
when you taste something good, you know they use good
butter that is expensive, good eggs and everything. That's how
you know, like if something lives for a long time,
(28:37):
the bread or the cookie or the band, that they
use good quality ingredients. So my cookie, our cookie, our
pandulce uniconca, it could last like a two weeks one week,
so anyways before I get there. So he sent me
the samples with all the colors, and you gotta be
careful because Mermaid colors are very close unicorn colors.
Speaker 3 (29:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
Yeah, So you're like, oh, it's too much purple. No, no, no,
if you if you know, you know, if you're like unicorns,
you know, they're a little more pastil. And we're like,
you know, be careful. So we finally came with the
colors and then he's like, what if I added the glitter.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
That's what I was gonna say. Glitters where it's.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
At, and we added the glitter and it just looked beautiful.
So everybody that I showed it to before we decided,
they're like, oh my god, that's so you as beautiful.
It's perfect. It's gonna be great. So we said, okay,
let's do a big one and like mini ones, and
then we came with the right color with the glitter
(29:40):
the packaging, and then we launched Wow and that's it.
But yeah, we did decided to do it as a
cookie because he does cookies.
Speaker 3 (29:48):
I like the cookie idea better to be honest.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
But it tastes like a kunta and it's dog friendly
because I gave it to my dog. He didn't get
sick nothing, and it's not too And then I knew
it was good because my dad. You know, when you
meet people, they're like, oh no, no, no, I'm not a
sweet person. No, no, thank you, no, no, no, it's okay.
He's like, I actually like I want more because I'm
(30:10):
not like a person to be eating sweets. And he
liked it, and a lot of people did. It wasn't
like one or two. They're like, this is good. I
think it's gonna be mad and you can't even taste
the glitter, like it's just there and makes it's so
pretty and it's there. It's like the only concient. That's
what what happened.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
So what would you say were some of the hurdles
to this whole process?
Speaker 2 (30:35):
You know what at the beginning was like not even
hard because when two people agree and they're excited about it,
it could happen. Actually, this is what was hard about it.
It was getting the support from people that said that
we're gonna be there for you to support you. And
that's crazy. Give me an example, like when I was
(30:57):
putting the lounge party together, or when I was putting
in certain things to to before we did the lounge,
like I needed certain things, Hey I need this for
my lounch right, or can you give me a discount
on this? I'm paying for it, like I don't want
anything for free.
Speaker 3 (31:14):
But look I'm gonna get a small or.
Speaker 2 (31:18):
You know what, I'm gonna do this party. Can you
come and promote it? You know, And a lot of
people that said they would be there, they weren't there.
A lot of people disappeared, never heard from them. And
it was not even putting this together because we have
all the elements. We had, the the the unic we
(31:39):
had the name where, we had the logo Felippe had
the cookies that the concept braty. We packed and I
went to Houston, where he's from, and we did a
photo shoot. We did our whole branding stuff, and we've
been posting and we're gonna be posting throughout this month,
next month, all year.
Speaker 3 (31:56):
You know, I think that's Susan in the pictures a lot.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
Yes, he's the the chef, you know, the bigger the gun.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
So now you guys are in this partnership now. Is
he based in Houston?
Speaker 2 (32:06):
Yes. And it's so funny because one of my friends,
like after the pandemic or I want to say, close
to the pandemic, she has showed me like another provider,
like a distributor of cookies from Houston, the same thing,
but they were like little mini concitas and she's like,
(32:27):
look I picture your product like this, and I was like,
it's so cute. So I reached out to them and
I said, look, I'm interested in a partnership where if
we can you know, it says that you have a
big warehouse that maybe you can create my product. And
La da da. They're like, we're not taking orders cert
and we're not interested in collaborating and we're not taking
even paid and now they don't exist anymore.
Speaker 3 (32:49):
That's so funny. See.
Speaker 2 (32:50):
And they were from Houston too, Yeah, and Philippe's from Houston.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
It's like a little like Manifesto on both sides. Philippe
needed his support in one way, and you know, someone
brought you all together and then you kind of needed
this thing and it just kind of worked out when
you guys.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
Yes and we kind of united. Yes. So yes, And
even if I only sold one cookie or two, I
would have been happy and proud of myself that I
did it, rather than why didn't I never do it?
I didn't like, you know, because a lot of people
don't go for it because they're like, okay, I didn't
sell anything. But you know a lot of people that
(33:28):
have multiple businesses or there are millionaires or what or whatnot,
they do multiple businesses and they failed, or they do
another one, or they have different sources of income, and
that's what you're supposed to do.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
Well, I'll tell you, just knowing what I know about
La market, that is going to be a hit because
Pandul say is huge out here.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
People love it.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
You know, it's like a cultural it's also culturally like
embedded in the culture. But to have the cookie as
the new improve next generation model is great, don't you
think I too?
Speaker 3 (34:05):
I think so, and I wait to see one in person.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
Yes the whole time, guys, just so you know, she
walked in within five minutes, Like, how soon can I
get them.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
What I need them tomorrow?
Speaker 3 (34:16):
I was trying to get them today. I was like,
can you bring them for the show so everyone can
see them?
Speaker 2 (34:21):
And I promise you there's still be our boxes that
need to be our or like influencers, artists like so
it's not like you know, and I love it because
it's kind of like exclusive, like people want it and okay,
I'm gonna get it, yes, you know, but you know,
obviously the goal is for people to walk in the
store and get it. But I mean you could get
it online and you know it's a good product.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
So are you going to go to buy it?
Speaker 2 (34:44):
You go to it right now, you go to Philippes
Creations that come and you can get it. But pretty
soon after our collaboration is done, they're gonna be sold
at my own website, which will be Patty Pandulce. Okay,
so on Instagram it's Patty Pandulce. So then when I
have my own website after our collaboration is done for
(35:04):
the drop, then it would be by there's like my
own website.
Speaker 3 (35:08):
There, okay, perfect perfect a.
Speaker 2 (35:10):
Felipe will always be part of my journey as far
as like creating or something because his work ethic is
very good.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
So now a day in the life, are you flying
back and forth between Houston and LA.
Speaker 2 (35:22):
And not really? It's just like I met some friends
and they're from Houston, and there's a lot of work
in Houston, believe it or not, you know, or a
lot of people from Houston come to LA to find work,
whether it's makeup, art is like spas and all of that.
Speaker 3 (35:39):
So are you still managing the PR side and this
new new venture?
Speaker 2 (35:43):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (35:43):
How do you juggle both ventures as an entrepreneur?
Speaker 2 (35:49):
So you know what depends Like if I'm done with
the contract with the client, then I can jump on
the next project. And I know, like you know right now,
since it's so brand new, it's not like too crazy,
it's just structuring and see what it worked. It didn't
work the cells, like you know what you look. But
(36:09):
when you love what you do, like it's manageable, I
don't feel like crazy only when it's a lot of
projects going on at once sometimes.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
But what advice do you give to brand new influencers
or people trying to get more following in their brands?
Speaker 2 (36:27):
Create content? You know, it just can happen with you
just sitting at home. All the creators and the influencers
that have made it and they are popping or that
are like good. They create content, and they always need somebody,
whether it's a parent, where it's a friend, to see
(36:48):
how they can structure. Because I seen and I have
talked to so many influencers that have a lot of
following and they don't know what they're doing. So what's
next is I have a lot of following, So how
can I make money? Number one? They don't know how
to do that. Number two, they don't know like after
they get a brand deal, like what to do with
(37:08):
that money? It might be a one hit wonder they
didn't save that money, they wasted it. So all of
that and for a brand, you know, just like mine,
and how I see other brands like don't give up
like you gotta start from the ground up. And a
lot of artists, brands and influencers they want now like
they want it quick. They want to be on complex
(37:30):
right away like World hip Hop or what you know
that one like, or they want to be on TMC.
It's like, who are you? You're not known right now
you can be we can't talk about you. We gotta
start baby stuff. So like I mean, if you want
to pay to play, because that's how a lot of
(37:50):
people do, then by all means, but if you don't
have the funds to pay to play, then you gotta
go slow, and you gotta be patient and continue to
be discipline and do the work because a lot of
people don't put the work. I tell people on box
talk about it, like brands are looking at what you do.
Use discount codes like learn to talk, shop, learn how
(38:12):
to get more followers even if you have one viewer.
Just stay there, like go live like all these things you.
Speaker 3 (38:18):
Say it is even stay there, stay there? Where do
you see Patty? Don't say going in stores? I think
so too.
Speaker 2 (38:26):
I think coffee shops and like people getting just you know,
getting it there. That's what I want.
Speaker 1 (38:33):
And then how did you and Philippe or did he
help you when it comes to pricing the cookies and
how does the pricing go with that?
Speaker 2 (38:39):
You know, why do you study the market and you
see like example, like cookie crumble, like this other one.
How how much of their marketing like a cookie like
a mini cookie, the wait, you know, the pattering. Yeah,
they're expensive and you know what, some people like it.
Speaker 3 (38:56):
It's experience the paper. So some of those cookies, it's
definitely the experien.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
And I want my experience because you know a lot
of people are like, oh my god, I want to
try to contact with glitter and it's like a unicorn.
So it's that experience you want to try it. So yeah,
I definitely give the audience an experience.
Speaker 3 (39:12):
Have you heard of the brand Afro Unicorn.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
I think yes, yes in Walmart, I.
Speaker 3 (39:17):
Said, distributed all major retailers. She was on the show.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
I would love to see you, of course.
Speaker 3 (39:25):
I think that there could be a collab there, absolutely, yes,
because you love unicorns. She's the Afro Unicorn. Hello, don't
say yes.
Speaker 1 (39:35):
I think there's some kind of and she already has
the distribution locked in there you go, who knows?
Speaker 2 (39:41):
Who knows? People that believe in unicorns. Those are my people.
Speaker 1 (39:45):
Yeah, the magical place. Well, where can everyone keep up
with you? And thank you for blessing me with such
a good meal?

Speaker 2 (00:26):
Hey, how are you good? Good?
Speaker 3 (00:29):
We was before we started rolling, guys, we was.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
A jazz gust brought kool Aid. Well, we had kool Aid.
And let me tell you something, if you ain't had
kool Aid in a.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
While, yeah, you're definitely gonna get me hooked into this.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
It's like I can't remember the last time I had it.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Like, I promise you too, I will be shocked if
the last and the next week you don't bring home
a pack of kool Aid.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
I know my kids are gonna be like, why, mom,
you're drinking kool Aid again.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
I know this dish has never been done on this show,
and we've a one hundred and like fifteen episodes at
this point, so really, yes, oh wow, So tell our
listeners what you will be having me eat today.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Okay, so this is a tuna salad something quick. But
it's so good really, and it makes you're not hungry,
like you get full and then you want more. It's
kind of diicting.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Yeah, well tell us the ingredients, because if this was
super broken, definitely affording you definitely broke.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
Yes, you could definitely afford this if you're broke. It's
just one tune I can and then tomato and the
audience and the corn and then I mix it with
the meal and then you eat it with some chips.
So you should love the cheese ruffles. But this one's good.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
I was looking at them, like, damn, I wonder what
I thought?
Speaker 3 (01:47):
You just want a plane?
Speaker 2 (01:48):
I was like, no, I love the cheese one. So
with those, those are like slimmy, those are okay.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
So guys, listeners at home today we have the plane.
But if you do this at home, do the cheese.
What is the cheese cheddar cheese cheddar cheese cheddar ruffles.
I was looking at it. She choosing the plane one
look at the list man.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Probably she missed the cheese part.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
She missed the cheese part. I promise you.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Okay, well go ahead start preparing this dish. And guys,
you don't need a stove top for this dish.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Okay, we got the you're doing the tomatoes, dumb the
tuna first, and she did drain the tuna.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Guys, Yes, I did. I did. Be careful. You always
want to be careful. You don't cut.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Yourself, yes, because you know Nope.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
And make sure you have a can opener because I know,
like if I didn't have one before, I would use
the knife.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
And be like, oh my goodness, so dangerous. I remember
we were taping in Atlanta with eighty five South, and
I don't know why we were all being lazy instead
of running to the kitchen. But DC young fly saws
like trying to do it with a knife, and he
was like, absolutely not.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
No one's cutting the soap, stealing this show. E.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Sometimes if you don't have money or do what you
gotta do, or yeah, you just go that old way.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
That's you know what it's like.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
You make you ready to make a tuna sandwich at
home and realize you can't find a thing.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
You're like, oh my god, but and you're hungry.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
You like, we're gonna get it open, but all means necessary.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Okay, so tuna. Then you're gonna chop up the tomato
and onion and just dump it in with me.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
But it's so good because a lot of people don't
do it like this. A lot of people just put
some onions, or they put other stuff, or they don't
add the corn, so it doesn't give it that flavor.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
So I'm curious if I would end up doing this
on like, because when I do a tuna sandwich, I
do it really plain.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
I just do the mao and the tuna with salt
and pepper.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
It's like too simple.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
So I'm just wondering, can you take the same dish
and just like, instead of eating or not, just put.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
It on the sandwich on the sandwich.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Yes, I'm dying to try it.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Usually when I had more money, you like, I eat
it with white rice, oh yeah, and then or either
the chips or the white rice.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
M hm, with the with the white rice being warm though, yes,
and then everything else being cold. Correct Okay, Oh yeah,
I was I forgot to pick up the rice.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Sorry about that. No, it's okay, because if I didn't
do the rice, I do the chips. But now I
even do the rice together with the chips. It's still
so good. Yeah, I promise you. Even my kids like this,
I got them into this, wow.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
And then I do do things with this nails because
people think like, oh, you don't do anything. I do
everything with my nails. Everything is possible.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
That's funny, Okay, So take me back to what was
going on during the time of tuna.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
What do we call this? It looked like tuna nachos?
What do we call this? What are you calling this dish?
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Just just a tuna salad, tuna chips, Tuna and chips,
Tuna and chips.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
That's what we call it.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
We gotta we gotta call it something, right, I was
definitely thinking it was tuna nachos, but just without the cheese.
But take me back to what was going on during
this era of invention.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
You know what, I moved out of my house when
I was eighteen. You know, I always been very independent.
I lived with my mom. My mom was a single mom.
My dad was in Costa Rica, so I was living
with her. But when I was eighteen, I wanted to
leave my house and I moved out with a boyfriend.
Back then, and I didn't even sleep in a room
(05:25):
or anything. We would sleep like in a living room
with like all his brothers and stuff.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
You moved out to your mama's house to go live there?
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Yeah, I did. I did, Okay, I did well?
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Because you were in love because it was hard at home.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
I think, you know, what if my mom, if we
would have been closer, I probably would have not moved
out of my house. You know. That's something like I
never really share ever out here by me and her,
Like we don't have the best relationship, but I do.
I'm very grateful for her and everything you know, she
did for me. But I think like if we were closer,
(06:00):
I would have not moved out of my house. And yeah,
I was in love. You know, when you're young and dumb,
you're in love. So you're like you'll find like living
with that guy even under the bridge, like if it
was like, you know, like a four season hotel or
something like that. Yeah. So yeah, so that's what happened.
And you know, and then I started working. Well, actually
(06:23):
I've been working since I was fifteen, when I was
in high school. My first job was at McDonald's as
a cashier. So I always had that in me, like
I always been like a hardworking person, Like I'm not lazy,
you know, So I wasn't afraid of like, oh, I'll
go work and find find work. But you know, we
did have to eat whatever was my boyfriend's house and
whatever but I'm from Costa Rica, so in Costa Rica
(06:47):
we have different tunas than over here, you know. So
but then they kind of make the tuna like how
I did? How I do it? Right now, I'm kind
of doing it, you know a little bit. So this
was always like if we if I didn't have money,
I'm like, hey, that's it's so good and it's cheap,
so I would just eat it. Yeah mm hmm.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
Now you got the onion. Now, I'm not a huge
fan of onions.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
So now I'll put a little bit. That's a little bit.
I'll put your like three.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
However you make it, I'm gonna try it because you
be surprised.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
I want you to try it. I'll just put a
little bit.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
I've tried crazy things on the show.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Really.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Oh wow, everyone knows my most hated dish is the
pickled egg.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
That was the only dish on this show that I
couldn't make it through.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
I don't like pickles. Ei their side, I don't.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
Know, imagine a pickled egg. Oh wow, absolutely discussing. Are
you sure you canna do.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
This with them?
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Now?
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Yes? This is hard because if I cut it the
other way, people are gonna be like that's not how
you cut it. They say you're supposed to cut it.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
It's audio girl, cut it whatever the way that makes
us live. You know what, I'll cut the knife. Yeah,
that's knife probably, Oh girl watching, you know, I'm.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Good, I'm not scared. I'll use this little one since
I'm only gonna use a little bit of onions.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
Okay, good, there you go, Thank goodness, there you go.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
All right, Yeah, you could just put all that stuff
in this little yeah, back right here. So you're over
there loving it up with boo thing in a house
with all the homies, all the brothers.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Right, Okay, so what happens? You know what I was like,
I don't think I ever found myself at that time.
I was just kind of like, you know, because when
you're in love, you kinda tend to please the other
person and see, okay, where are we going? Where is this?
And you know, as women, we mature like more than
(08:45):
men quicker. So it's kind of struggling, you know. I
was just having different jobs all the time I've been
that time. When I was younger, I would have any
type of job. I would never be jobless, but I
have different type of jobs, always have receptionists. Oh my
god time. Nobody knows this. I ended up working as
a receptionist in a place that they do massages, but
(09:06):
I didn't know it was kind of weird massages with
a happy ending.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
I had no idea. I was like twenty or something.
But I was just a receptionist. Because the guys walked
in and then they would be like, I'm here for
the ad on the newspaper, and I'll be like okay,
and I'd have the prices of the massages, all innocent,
but then they would be like, oh, what kind of
girls do you have? And like and then girls will
(09:33):
walk in and be like, hey, I'm here to see
if you guys are are hiring. But I do everything
and I was like, what do you mean everything? And
then I did not. I quit after like a week.
But I had no idea. I was just a receptionist.
And then the owner started asking me because when I
was younger, like I was like, skinnier, prettier, you know everything,
(09:56):
what do.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
You down do?
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Yeah? And I was like, no, I I don't know
how to do massages. I don't and yeah, and then
like but the guys will ask, hey, do you do
massages too, and I'll be like no, you know, and
then the owner was like, you know, it's suspicious. They
was like it they were all Asian.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Yeah, you know, so it was like we were.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
And then I found out and I was like, I
can't work here. Yeah, yeah, this is not a good environment.
So I have all types of jobs.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
That's a crazy yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
I could have only imagine working in a job where
that goes down.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
So m hm.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
So after all these jobs, what is the thing that
takes you into the next direction towards entrepreneurship.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
And then you know, I did graduate from high school.
You know, I always I and my family from my
mom's side, everybody went to school. Everybody had that formation.
So I always wanted to have that because I was like,
you know, race like that, you know, finished school. Like
you know, I had a good childhood. I didn't have
like you know, I always had everything in regards to
(11:03):
material stuff. Maybe there were some things that I needed,
but I was always formed to go to school, finished this.
So even with some little problems here and there, I
still graduated from high school. And then I remember I
went to a clinic and I said, oh, I want
to be a medical assistant. So I did it. I'm
that type of person that if I say I'm gonna
(11:24):
do something, I do it like I put it out
there now I'm gonna go do it. So I went
to school, like a private school for medical assistant. I graduated,
and I started working in different clinics. So I entered
this new era of the medical field. I started working
with like you know, general doctors, pediatricians with everything. And
(11:46):
then I started then working with the for the county
life with the insurance and and stuff. And then I
kind of went into the PR department because they have
PR as well, it's crazy, you know, and then they
have case managing. I went into that level. And then
but I was getting burned out because I felt trapped,
like in a desk. I felt yeah, And then my
(12:09):
dad would always be like, this is not what you're doing.
This is not you. I look at you and I
see you doing bigger things. And when you're young, you're
like you brought your eyes your parents and like, oh
my god. No. But then I started watching the TLC,
like the wedding planning thing, and I went online and
I did a wedding planning thing and I said, now
(12:30):
I'm going to be a wedding planner, and I did.
So I started, like, you know, calling my friends or
like if I knew somebody was getting married, I'll be like,
I'll do it. I'll plan it for you, just pay
me this much. Then I met a lady. She had
like three venues to do parties, and I also told her, hey,
you know you do weddings, but you don't have a
wedding planner. Here, can I do three or four of
(12:51):
your weddings? And I did, and then all of a sudden,
I was booking halls and stuff. So I'm just always
trying to like wait, like you know, and that's what happened.
But one day I quit, and now I'm here.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
So you quit, you went from but you start, but
you okay, you quit the wedding planning.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Well, now that was like I was doing that on
the side from the medical field because I was on
the medical field like for over ten years, like ten years,
and now I was young.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
Now what are you doing exactly?
Speaker 2 (13:23):
So now I do public relations and now I do
marketing and branding, and then I work with the influencers.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Yeah, who are some of the people that he have
done public relations for?
Speaker 2 (13:45):
I work with this company. It's a promoter called Bobby
the Presents. I've been hired by Live Nation and AG
for the Influencer program. I work with restaurants, chefs, I
work with the working in the music industry. I have
the opportunity to work with big people that live here
(14:05):
in La you know, the king of the West Coast,
Snoop Dog exactly. So that was challenging for me because
I'm Latina. But when I grew up, I'm from the
two thousands over there in high school, so of course
I know all the music.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
I know that the.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Snoop that I skilled, the warrang the Eastsiders, all of that.
But then I remember when they look at me as
they're like, it's weird because it's like, she don't know
about this, I do, you know, because a lot of
people like they want to put me in this category
or she's only Latin. But then I know, like I.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
Know, yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
And I remember when we started working with Snoop with
Bobby de Presents, with this company, it was so amazing
because it was a black and brown together. And then
I remember Snoop was coming out with his new album
I Want to Thank Me, and it had been over
ten years since he dropped and a so I told Bobby, hey,
(15:02):
let's do a press conference and he's like, yeah, let's
do it, but I are you gonna be able to
pull it off? I'm like, oh my god. He was
so worried.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Of course, Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
And then they give me the worst date, which it
was these dates around the holidays, days before the media
would go in with their families. I had the most
challenging day to pull this day. I did it. I
did it. I did it. I pulled a good job.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
So is that how you started getting into prs by
working with Bobby D?
Speaker 2 (15:28):
Yes? By working with him? He we met one day.
I went to his office. He says, I like what
you do? You don't have much, but what I see
I like, and let's see. Let's go for it. He said,
I don't have nobody latin. I only have one black
girl doing the Bobby d Black TV. And I don't
know what happened in her, Like she left after I
(15:50):
got there. She left, I don't know, you know, and
then we grew together.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
Wow, awesome. So you still have relationships with that whole
like the Snoop Dogs and all those.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Yeah, we have Kings of the West November thirtieth. But
you know you'll see this next year. It was sold out,
Oh for real?
Speaker 3 (16:07):
Yeah, and you produce, you helped do the pr on it.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Yes, I do.
Speaker 3 (16:11):
That's awesome. And I'm guessing you're gonna need this.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Yes, mix everything corn, tomato and the onions. And you
want to like mix it so it could be like
really in you know, not just throw it there like separate.
You want to really mix it there so you can
have it really mixed together.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
I'm really curious.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Then I put salt because the salt gives it like
because if you don't put salt, it's a little dry,
you know. And this one was like the chunk the
water tuna. So I like the water, but I don't
mind the oil. But it's better if you drain it
because it gets to watery, you know, especially if you're
(16:50):
gonna mix it with chips or rice, you know. Okay,
So you put a little the salt before and then
you start putting the mail. After you put the salt
so you could give it some flavor, you know, mm hmm,
and then you start mixing it.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
See how it goes?
Speaker 1 (17:08):
So now, and I slowly want to get to the
thing that I'm most excited about, which is some of
your most recent adventures. So now you're still doing pr Yes,
and you're still working with the influencers and the artists.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
The thing that I really want to know is how
you started getting into Patty Pandulce cookies.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
You know what, I owed that to myself because everybody
would always be mad at me, Like the people close
to me, they'll be like, Okay, why don't you do
something for you? Come on, drop something, drop a hoodie,
drop a shirt, and I would just ignore it. But
Bobby D's office, they would call me Patty Pandulce. So
every time I would go pick up my check or something,
(17:52):
here she comes Patty Pandulce. And then that's I get.
Speaker 3 (17:57):
Too, because like you were the only Latino, well not.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
There was a few Latinas there, but I was sweet
and then I don't know them. I reminded them of
the Pandulce like I don't know, so it was, you know,
shut out to Booby. He started calling me that, and
then the whole office started calling me that. So I
thought I was super cute, you know, Paddy Panduluce and
the pandu. I love Pandulce is the Mexican bread, you know,
(18:21):
and people know them. They know them as Mexican bread
or conscirasty, you know either.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
That's what I learned about. I just started eating that
like in the last year.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
So yes, so I always said, you know, and they
just stayed like that. But one, I love unicorns and
I feel like they're so magical, so cute, like you know,
I was just like I've been like gravitated to them.
I like them, you know, and I will be like
Paddy pandul I'm like, imagine a unicorn eating a bandulce,
(18:55):
Like wow, like I never seen that. Nobody. It's not
even out there. There's no unicorns, and they're real, like,
you know, my dad says they're real. So I've been
saying that the curts are real.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
So send us a picture, I know.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
So I'm gonna serve you.
Speaker 3 (19:12):
Oh you can just put in the middle. We could
eat it.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Okay, that's right.

sure it's everything you.
Speaker 3 (19:26):
Here we go here we go. I'm never making a
tune sandwich the same again.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
It's so good. And with the cheese ruffles, you'll see
when you're trying.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
Even with the cheese ruffles, but even if you did
this on bread, it's so much better too.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
Like oh yeah, oh my god, definitely, and this will
keep you full and it's good.
Speaker 3 (19:49):
That's fantastic. And I could taste the salt. I can
see why you need the salt. This is fantastic. I'm
trying to see if I can get onion. I would
eat this whole damn thing, h because because it.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Gives you a flavor, so the soul gives it the flavor,
the tune of the flavor mm hmm. Brilliant mm hmm,
and then some kool aid.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
Honestly, this is really good. I don't think you need
the cheddar ones.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
No, with the cheddar ones, you'll be like, oh my god.
So then you'll be like, oh, I'm gonna make me
that because then it's addicting, so you'll be like, I
want to make that with the cheddar.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
I promise, this is really good. This whole thing you.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
See, you see told you this is hitting.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
Who would have ever thought that's right.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
It's nice, it's cheap, affordable.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
You don't need a stove, everyone, you.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
Don't need a stove. You just do it just a knife.
And when I point out, ye see, I could do
it with the nails too.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
Brilliant dish. Mm hmm, I shouldn't let you do more onions.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
See well, I just wanted to take it easy onion
since you don't do a lot.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
But this dish is actually very impressive.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
I'm very affordable, very easy to make for all your
high school is dealing with the moms that work a lot.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
This will do it. That's right.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
And the only thing I would recommend is the school aid.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
You guys gotta get the kool aid. The kool aid.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
I promise you you're gonna text me a picture of
the school age she.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Is on her number two.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
Fourth one. This dish is impressive. So take me back
to Patty pand oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
So then I was like, the pandemic came and I
was like, I need to maybe start thinking about dropping something.
So I had a couple of people like at graphic Designers.
I was like, look, I wanted you on a corn
eating a conta and They're like, okay, so I have
a couple of sketches of the unicorns. The first ones
(22:05):
I one it was like the whole horse with just
the little horn but with eyelashes. But the I didn't
see like the bandulce, like because he was standing and like.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Your original thought was just merch. It wasn't even the
yet Okay, no, no, it was.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
The actually, so I said, oh my god, I don't
want to do makeup. I don't I want to do
I want to be different. I'm gonna do the bread.
So then the the artist they started sketching. Then he
didn't want to like going out of space, eating the
conca out of space like, but the little pandulsa was
like on the side, and I'm like, no, why don't
(22:48):
we do like a little cartoon one, like a fluffy
one but actually like holding it because I want him
or her? Yeah yeah, oh my gosh. I don't know
if you've seen the logo. I know she showed you
the logo. That's the logo of the So finally, my
friend Orlando, he's an amazing graphic designer. I told him
(23:10):
this is what I want. So when he finally sent
me the schedule, I was like, oh my God, this
is so cute. This is it. And it's wearing like
a little winky, like a little pajama thing, I don't know,
some little clothes with the little pandulas on and he's holding.
So now my next thought was like, okay, I'm not
(23:31):
a baker. I don't bake, but it's okay. It's my idea,
is my bision whatever. That's how people get great together.
So I was like, now I need somebody to make
this as unicorne colors. So it's the bandulus with unicorne colors.
And if you see the pandula it actually some of
them already have unicorne colors. You see the pink one,
(23:53):
you see like the green one, the pink one that
makes it so cool exactly. So now we got to
put it together and just be the flavor. And you know,
now I went to many bakeries before, and then I
tried so much mon do will say. I was already
full because I wanted to see like which one was,
like the best one, you know, and then go and
(24:14):
talk to them and things like that, you know, but
it just didn't happen. For some reason, I got more work.
I kind of lose track and ambition of the project.
Speaker 3 (24:24):
And this is all going on during the pandemic.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Yes, and then I didn't put my energy on the project,
so again another year nothing. Twenty twenty one was really
hard for me. I was going through like a separation
and everything, so again put into the back twenty twenty
two like a nasty breakup, like a toxic relationship, like
(24:46):
trying to put myself back together. And I still work
because nobody knows I'm going through things. I look like
a champ all the time. I could be following apart.
Nobody will know.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
But do you do you have like a soundboard at home,
like your girlfriends that are like keeping you.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
Yeah, or like I have people like be like don't
forget about you because here you are still working hustling,
and like what about you? And then I was like,
but what if I do this? Nobody likes it? Like
what stupid? Like all this idea because you're your worst
and of course like not even your haters and people
don't like it. It's you. You're the one that always
(25:21):
like you're so bad to yourself, you know. So finally,
just three months ago, I met Philippe. Philippe is the
founder and creator of Philippe's creations. He's a baker. He
(25:43):
does cakes and wonderful cookies. And he lives in Houston, Texas, not.
Speaker 3 (25:50):
Even here, so where'd you meet him?
Speaker 2 (25:52):
So I used to manage an influencer and he introduced
me to Philippe a couple of months ago, and he said, hey,
Felippe doesn't just want to be a baker. He has
good numbers on TikTok and he's very handsome, very smart.
And then I feel like, you guys maybe can work
together and maybe guide him, because having a manager is
(26:14):
not about just a brandials having a manager is like,
oh no, you need to talk this way like coach
and all these things. So I met with him. We
talked a little bit on the phone, but I'm nothing concrete.
Then I had some downtime and I contacted him and
then he signed under me under my talent agency, just
(26:34):
so we can see what we can do with him
as far as more opportunities or attending events or more exposure. Right,
So one day I said, hey, you know what, it's
so funny that you're a baker and he said why.
I'm like, because go girl, go Patty, go ahead.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
Do you elevate a pitch.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
Yeah, because you know what I been wanting to do
this Bandu s but I wanted it be like a unicorn.
You need uniquoncha you So that's what it's like, a
unique concha and I want it. I want it like
to make make like make it pretty this color is,
(27:15):
but make it magical like not just any like you know,
I imagine a unit corn eating a He's like, oh
my god, I love it. He didn't say no wow,
like no, like he took the time to listen to
my idea and stuff. And he's like, I don't do pandul,
but I have this band cookies and they're my top cellars.
(27:39):
So he has like this pink one and a brow
one because they when you make that powder, you can
make it taste like panduce, even if you do it
as a cookie or as whatever. So I said, okay,
so can you make the colors of the UNI like
a unicorn and make it taste like the bandu like
the whatever. He's like, yeah, let me send you some
(28:00):
samples and let's go. And I was like, I can't
believe I'm finally even sample like because I wasn't even moving.
So he sent me some colors, and he sent me
like five or six. He was quick about it.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
He's so all the way from Houston.
Speaker 2 (28:16):
Yes, okay, because his ships worldwide and stuff. And you know,
when you taste something good, that the person and this
is what the Pandula said with the cookies, with the cakes,
when you taste something good, you know they use good
butter that is expensive, good eggs and everything. That's how
you know, like if something lives for a long time,
(28:37):
the bread or the cookie or the band, that they
use good quality ingredients. So my cookie, our cookie, our
pandulce uniconca, it could last like a two weeks one week,
so anyways before I get there. So he sent me
the samples with all the colors, and you gotta be
careful because Mermaid colors are very close unicorn colors.
Speaker 3 (29:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
Yeah, So you're like, oh, it's too much purple. No, no, no,
if you if you know, you know, if you're like unicorns,
you know, they're a little more pastil. And we're like,
you know, be careful. So we finally came with the
colors and then he's like, what if I added the glitter.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
That's what I was gonna say. Glitters where it's.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
At, and we added the glitter and it just looked beautiful.
So everybody that I showed it to before we decided,
they're like, oh my god, that's so you as beautiful.
It's perfect. It's gonna be great. So we said, okay,
let's do a big one and like mini ones, and
then we came with the right color with the glitter
(29:40):
the packaging, and then we launched Wow and that's it.
But yeah, we did decided to do it as a
cookie because he does cookies.
Speaker 3 (29:48):
I like the cookie idea better to be honest.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
But it tastes like a kunta and it's dog friendly
because I gave it to my dog. He didn't get
sick nothing, and it's not too And then I knew
it was good because my dad. You know, when you
meet people, they're like, oh no, no, no, I'm not a
sweet person. No, no, thank you, no, no, no, it's okay.
He's like, I actually like I want more because I'm
(30:10):
not like a person to be eating sweets. And he
liked it, and a lot of people did. It wasn't
like one or two. They're like, this is good. I
think it's gonna be mad and you can't even taste
the glitter, like it's just there and makes it's so
pretty and it's there. It's like the only concient. That's
what what happened.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
So what would you say were some of the hurdles
to this whole process?
Speaker 2 (30:35):
You know what at the beginning was like not even
hard because when two people agree and they're excited about it,
it could happen. Actually, this is what was hard about it.
It was getting the support from people that said that
we're gonna be there for you to support you. And
that's crazy. Give me an example, like when I was
(30:57):
putting the lounge party together, or when I was putting
in certain things to to before we did the lounge,
like I needed certain things, Hey I need this for
my lounch right, or can you give me a discount
on this? I'm paying for it, like I don't want
anything for free.
Speaker 3 (31:14):
But look I'm gonna get a small or.
Speaker 2 (31:18):
You know what, I'm gonna do this party. Can you
come and promote it? You know, And a lot of
people that said they would be there, they weren't there.
A lot of people disappeared, never heard from them. And
it was not even putting this together because we have
all the elements. We had, the the the unic we
(31:39):
had the name where, we had the logo Felippe had
the cookies that the concept braty. We packed and I
went to Houston, where he's from, and we did a
photo shoot. We did our whole branding stuff, and we've
been posting and we're gonna be posting throughout this month,
next month, all year.
Speaker 3 (31:56):
You know, I think that's Susan in the pictures a lot.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
Yes, he's the the chef, you know, the bigger the gun.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
So now you guys are in this partnership now. Is
he based in Houston?
Speaker 2 (32:06):
Yes. And it's so funny because one of my friends,
like after the pandemic or I want to say, close
to the pandemic, she has showed me like another provider,
like a distributor of cookies from Houston, the same thing,
but they were like little mini concitas and she's like,
(32:27):
look I picture your product like this, and I was like,
it's so cute. So I reached out to them and
I said, look, I'm interested in a partnership where if
we can you know, it says that you have a
big warehouse that maybe you can create my product. And
La da da. They're like, we're not taking orders cert
and we're not interested in collaborating and we're not taking
even paid and now they don't exist anymore.
Speaker 3 (32:49):
That's so funny. See.
Speaker 2 (32:50):
And they were from Houston too, Yeah, and Philippe's from Houston.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
It's like a little like Manifesto on both sides. Philippe
needed his support in one way, and you know, someone
brought you all together and then you kind of needed
this thing and it just kind of worked out when
you guys.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
Yes and we kind of united. Yes. So yes, And
even if I only sold one cookie or two, I
would have been happy and proud of myself that I
did it, rather than why didn't I never do it?
I didn't like, you know, because a lot of people
don't go for it because they're like, okay, I didn't
sell anything. But you know a lot of people that
(33:28):
have multiple businesses or there are millionaires or what or whatnot,
they do multiple businesses and they failed, or they do
another one, or they have different sources of income, and
that's what you're supposed to do.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
Well, I'll tell you, just knowing what I know about
La market, that is going to be a hit because
Pandul say is huge out here.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
People love it.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
You know, it's like a cultural it's also culturally like
embedded in the culture. But to have the cookie as
the new improve next generation model is great, don't you
think I too?
Speaker 3 (34:05):
I think so, and I wait to see one in person.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
Yes the whole time, guys, just so you know, she
walked in within five minutes, Like, how soon can I
get them.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
What I need them tomorrow?
Speaker 3 (34:16):
I was trying to get them today. I was like,
can you bring them for the show so everyone can
see them?
Speaker 2 (34:21):
And I promise you there's still be our boxes that
need to be our or like influencers, artists like so
it's not like you know, and I love it because
it's kind of like exclusive, like people want it and okay,
I'm gonna get it, yes, you know, but you know,
obviously the goal is for people to walk in the
store and get it. But I mean you could get
it online and you know it's a good product.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
So are you going to go to buy it?
Speaker 2 (34:44):
You go to it right now, you go to Philippes
Creations that come and you can get it. But pretty
soon after our collaboration is done, they're gonna be sold
at my own website, which will be Patty Pandulce. Okay,
so on Instagram it's Patty Pandulce. So then when I
have my own website after our collaboration is done for
(35:04):
the drop, then it would be by there's like my
own website.
Speaker 3 (35:08):
There, okay, perfect perfect a.
Speaker 2 (35:10):
Felipe will always be part of my journey as far
as like creating or something because his work ethic is
very good.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
So now a day in the life, are you flying
back and forth between Houston and LA.
Speaker 2 (35:22):
And not really? It's just like I met some friends
and they're from Houston, and there's a lot of work
in Houston, believe it or not, you know, or a
lot of people from Houston come to LA to find work,
whether it's makeup, art is like spas and all of that.
Speaker 3 (35:39):
So are you still managing the PR side and this
new new venture?
Speaker 2 (35:43):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (35:43):
How do you juggle both ventures as an entrepreneur?
Speaker 2 (35:49):
So you know what depends Like if I'm done with
the contract with the client, then I can jump on
the next project. And I know, like you know right now,
since it's so brand new, it's not like too crazy,
it's just structuring and see what it worked. It didn't
work the cells, like you know what you look. But
(36:09):
when you love what you do, like it's manageable, I
don't feel like crazy only when it's a lot of
projects going on at once sometimes.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
But what advice do you give to brand new influencers
or people trying to get more following in their brands?
Speaker 2 (36:27):
Create content? You know, it just can happen with you
just sitting at home. All the creators and the influencers
that have made it and they are popping or that
are like good. They create content, and they always need somebody,
whether it's a parent, where it's a friend, to see
(36:48):
how they can structure. Because I seen and I have
talked to so many influencers that have a lot of
following and they don't know what they're doing. So what's
next is I have a lot of following, So how
can I make money? Number one? They don't know how
to do that. Number two, they don't know like after
they get a brand deal, like what to do with
(37:08):
that money? It might be a one hit wonder they
didn't save that money, they wasted it. So all of
that and for a brand, you know, just like mine,
and how I see other brands like don't give up
like you gotta start from the ground up. And a
lot of artists, brands and influencers they want now like
they want it quick. They want to be on complex
(37:30):
right away like World hip Hop or what you know
that one like, or they want to be on TMC.
It's like, who are you? You're not known right now
you can be we can't talk about you. We gotta
start baby stuff. So like I mean, if you want
to pay to play, because that's how a lot of
(37:50):
people do, then by all means, but if you don't
have the funds to pay to play, then you gotta
go slow, and you gotta be patient and continue to
be discipline and do the work because a lot of
people don't put the work. I tell people on box
talk about it, like brands are looking at what you do.
Use discount codes like learn to talk, shop, learn how
(38:12):
to get more followers even if you have one viewer.
Just stay there, like go live like all these things you.
Speaker 3 (38:18):
Say it is even stay there, stay there? Where do
you see Patty? Don't say going in stores? I think
so too.
Speaker 2 (38:26):
I think coffee shops and like people getting just you know,
getting it there. That's what I want.
Speaker 1 (38:33):
And then how did you and Philippe or did he
help you when it comes to pricing the cookies and
how does the pricing go with that?
Speaker 2 (38:39):
You know, why do you study the market and you
see like example, like cookie crumble, like this other one.
How how much of their marketing like a cookie like
a mini cookie, the wait, you know, the pattering. Yeah,
they're expensive and you know what, some people like it.
Speaker 3 (38:56):
It's experience the paper. So some of those cookies, it's
definitely the experien.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
And I want my experience because you know a lot
of people are like, oh my god, I want to
try to contact with glitter and it's like a unicorn.
So it's that experience you want to try it. So yeah,
I definitely give the audience an experience.
Speaker 3 (39:12):
Have you heard of the brand Afro Unicorn.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
I think yes, yes in Walmart, I.
Speaker 3 (39:17):
Said, distributed all major retailers. She was on the show.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
I would love to see you, of course.
Speaker 3 (39:25):
I think that there could be a collab there, absolutely, yes,
because you love unicorns. She's the Afro Unicorn. Hello, don't
say yes.
Speaker 1 (39:35):
I think there's some kind of and she already has
the distribution locked in there you go, who knows?
Speaker 2 (39:41):
Who knows? People that believe in unicorns. Those are my people.
Speaker 1 (39:45):
Yeah, the magical place. Well, where can everyone keep up
with you? And thank you for blessing me with such
a good meal?
Speaker 2 (39:53):
I ate look at the bills finish that she ate me.
Speaker 3 (39:56):

Speaker 1 (39:56):
Embarrassed, guys, because I could not stop eating it during
But there's like literally none left. This is awesome. Like
sometimes being on this show, it's really cool. I'm a mom,
I'm a single mom, just brand new mom, and sometimes
you know you're looking in the fridge and you're trying
to impress your kid and you don't know what you
could throw together.
Speaker 3 (40:16):
This right here, this you can do. Guys.
Speaker 1 (40:19):
If anybody has taught me is yeah, these dishes on
here can definitely like I never thought of that, but
this is the new way to eat tuna, tomato, dice
tomato chopped up onion mao, and corn with tuna with some.
Speaker 3 (40:35):
Cheddar ruffles and some salt.
Speaker 1 (40:38):
That's where it's at, all right, guys, Tell Patty, tell
everybody where they could keep up with you into that camera.
