Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is, he said, with Eric Winster and Rosalin Fantev.
We are back everybody, Eddie, Hello, sorry we missed you
all last week, um with a new episode. You know.
As Rosally mentioned on our Instagram page, my my father

(00:21):
had passed away on Easter Sunday. Um and look you
know it's it's it was. It was a tough week.
It was not something unexpected. Um. He had been battling
some illnesses for a while. But this is one thing
for sure, this podcast is in memory of my dad.
This is he was a guy that loved to laugh.
All he wanted me to do was laugh and tell

(00:42):
jokes and be funny. He loved our podcast dearly. Um.
So we're gonna enjoy this podcast, going down a little
taking a little trip down memory lane, um and having
some laughs but you know, and doing so celebrating my
dad's life with with that. So we are going to
um have a good time, right Eric, even though my

(01:04):
mouth is numb a little bit because last night what
happened to me last night and my freaking crown broke. Well.
I was eating She's having having dinner, lunch, lunch, having lunch,
and then I was like, what am I gonna do.
So I started texting my friend that is a dentist,
and then texting my my my doctor Pieper, my actual dentist,
and then he was so grateful that he saw me today.

(01:25):
And if I if I sound a little funky, I apologize,
but yeah, I have a temp now and it's it's
been a nightmare. But here we are, thank you quarantine
time for breaking my my crown moller. Anyways, we are
going to reminists. We're gonna know why you're breaking. You
grind your teeth at night and you don't wear your
guard and that cracks your teeth. And then what have
I've been I mean, I've been asking you for something

(01:46):
so I can sleep at night, so I don't grind
my mouth guard. I have a mouth guard, but it
was giving me. Next I'm gonna you don't need pot
gummies to sleep if you have a used mouth well,
if you go to the store and give me something
that I can mellow, I will stop grinding my teeth
and breaking my teeth. It's not supposed to be. I
don't know why it's so sutressful. I don't know why grind,

(02:08):
but I've been doing it my whole life. I was
in high school. I remember one day twice it happened
in high school. They had to call my mom to
come get me because my my job will look that
ever happened yet, like click and then you crook it
and then you cannot move it and it's painful. My job.
People will luck and they will have to call my
mom to get made to the door. It's not embarrassing,

(02:29):
super embarrassing you at school locked, John, Yeah it was.
It was awful close and I was locked, so I
hold all my all my attention goes to my job
for whatever reason. Anyways, let's reminisce Eric. Can we reminisce right?
A little walk down memory lane? Speaking of weed, it's
funny because I used I could have gotten you a
bunch of week When I was growing up, I was

(02:49):
I wasn't a big stoner. Yeah, I definitely when I
don't think when you listen to the podcast, Uh no,
I definitely experimented with quite a bit of weed. A
lot of friends that would have weed on their person.
I could have gotten you weed then. Now I don't
have an idea, and then it was illegal. Now it's legal,

(03:12):
don't worry. Can I ask you something. How strict was
your family when you were growing up? Who was who
was more strict? Mom or dad? Uh? Definitely would say
my mom was probably more strict. Neither one. I don't
remember being overly strict. Um, but my my mom, I
think across the board, are you um my mom to

(03:33):
my father was I don't want to say an absent
father because my father they're still together fifty something years.
My parents, I grew up with both of them, but
my father was always working, so my mom was like
the one holding the fort and my mom is like
like a man. My mom is super super strong, super strict,
but you know what strict like. I'm going to give
an example that was gonna be another thing that I

(03:54):
wanted to ask you. Were you allowed to have sleepovers? Sleepovers? Yeah?
I had sleep all the time, all the time, so
much younger age, so me too, So I grew up
having sleep different like my whole life. I will stay
at my friend's house weekly pretty much, and my mom
was super comfortable and it was like a normal thing.

(04:14):
I would think that even though she was super strict,
she would never she shouldn't have done that. Like we
have kids now and there's no ways as going to
have a sleepover like that so freely. So so you know,
different times, knowing how strict your mom was. Did you
ever skip school growing up? I did? Yeah, uh not

(04:35):
not a lot. No, not a lot, because then again,
I always my mom was super detective, so I couldn't
really try to be funky like that. But I do
remember once I was maybe junior or maybe senior in
high school and one of my friends, one of my friends,

(04:56):
UM wanted to go to olts and want to take
some pictures with this me and this guy that I
was kind of dating that my mom didn't approve at all.
He was like the devil for my mom. And then
she dropped me off at school and I acted like
I walked to school and I didn't. And then she
met me my friend and we spent the whole days
on one my mom's friend, Bianca's mom saw me and

(05:19):
looked at me, and I was like, please don't say anything,
Please don't say anything. Anyways, we went to someone, we
did a whole auto shoot, and my mom then I
came back on a time, put my UNI from back.
My mom came to get me. Never knew it happened
until maybe a year later that I had the pictures
inside a shoebox inside my closet and my mom. I
came from from balak balat class one day and my

(05:41):
mom is waiting for me, asking me, when did you
take this? Why? When did this happen? And I had
to confess and she almost freaking kill me. Yeah, and
I never did again. It's yoga, going off, going off.
I never was a big school skipper. I got in
trouble a lot at school. I definitely got suspended ones

(06:01):
which was not no, you didn't yea why I got
put intotention Like an idiot, I thought it would be
fun to use a hairspray can and put my name
on the wall in science lab and then I had
I don't know how, I had to match meanbe it
was part of the experiment, and I lit the my
name on fire when the teachers near the room, really stupid,
and then he walked in didn't see it, and the
whole class ratted me out and I got sent to

(06:23):
the office and was put in detention and I got suspended,
risk of being expelled. It was a nightmare. What did
Gwen do? Not very happy? Where my grandpa picked men? Yeah,
I was ground for like a month. I'm glad you
have more male friends or female friends. Growing up pretty balanced,
pretty bad. And I played football and I played a

(06:44):
lot of sports, and I had a lot of male friends. Both.
Probably more male friends, I guess, but a lot of
girlfriends do. Okay, I think the same both. I mean
I always gravitated more towards the guys because I grew
up with three brothers. You know, I was the only girl,
and so my my my life was very surrounded by men,

(07:05):
you know. So that that that explains why my favorite
sport is boxing. But then I also danced ballet and
I was into beauty pageants. But I was always wrestling
in my runner and I was runner my father. I've
seen you on a treadmill. It's not it's not like
she's a sprinter or a graceful runner. I still have
a lot of questions about her being a runner. You
know what. It's so sad because nowadays we document everything

(07:27):
with their phones, and we have videos of of our
kids that we're going to be able to show them
when they're old. When I was growing up, I have
I don't have a lot of pictures. I have no
videos of me dancing running. Not believe that you were,
they asked, my freaking family judge me atunately, I have
to watch you run all the time on this treadmill
you put in the living room. But I was an athlete.

(07:50):
I was very very fast. I went through this. We
went through this before. I was very fast. Because I
still don't believe it all right with strict parents or
strict mom. What age did you have your first kiss?
Wasn't that already? Remember? No? Maybe fourteen? Maybes it's impressive.

(08:13):
It's better than I like kids like you. No, No,
like a peg. I don't remember, like a peck, like
like like that, like like No, I was probably in
seventh grade. Yeah, going for it, So I was probably twelve,
I guess. No. I was always more than that. What
did you lose your virginity? I'm not gonna answer that question.

(08:33):
Why No, it was late too, but I don't want
to answer that. I'm not comfortable. When did you lose
a ten? Fourteen? Fourteen? Is that is that earlier late
for a boy? I don't depends on the on the person,
but I think it's more in the early side that I.
Did your parents ever ever have the talk with you
my dad. Dad. All my dad wanted to do was

(08:54):
have the talk. My dad was like the ultimate playboy
and life growing up, but he was very admitt like,
you know, Eric, be safe, you don't want to get
you know what. But like, given your condoms and everything,
oh yeah. My dad was like, look, if you're gonna
have a sex, if you're gonna screw around, just be responsible,
be smart, use protection. I will get your protection, so
you have it. I don't want you want to make
sure I wasn't getting anybody pregnant and then I wasn't

(09:16):
getting any diseases. Start having that conversation as soon as
I started high school as I was fourteen. It was
a summer going into high school, so I was thirteen
turning fourteen, and he had to talk to me. As
soon as I started what did you say? I was like,
all right, Dad, cool, what about your mom? This year?
Never had to talk to my mom. I think my

(09:37):
mom knows any of this information, but you'll probably learn
it when she listens to the podcast. My parents to
this day think I'm a virgin. They do. I don't
think I have the virgin with two kids, rost the
virgin listen. I I've never ever had the talk like
sex was a forbidden topic with for me because I
was a girl on the youngest one is so funny

(09:57):
because having three brothers I was, I saw so many
a minute, walk in it out of my house. You
have no idea that crazy amount. But it was not
a topic of conversation. To this day, my mom will
not talk to me about sex or my dad. Did
you have a lot of boyfriends they knew were boyfriends?
Or did you have a lot of boyfriends? Were you
more of like monogamy? Were you into one relationship and one? Really?

(10:18):
I never dated. I never in my life I dated
a long relationship long like I will meet somebody and
then I will date for five years, and then I
would be single for a little bit and then I
would date for three years, like long relationships. So not
like a lot of dating. Now, that was not me.
You date it a lot. Yeah, you don't want to
know this. You don't want that information. I don't want
to give you numbers because I don't think I could

(10:39):
even number. Oh wow, what a ball? Oh my god?
That whoever? Definitely he doesn't remember the number? Whatever? Al right,
whatever did I know? I already know this question for you.
Did your parents ever approved approve of everybody you dated?

(11:00):
Know that to know, absolutely not? And I think with me,
I think with me, my parents were cool with pretty
much everybody I dated, and I just if it didn't
work out, I explained, I don't think I ever had
anybody that was like a flag that they said from
the get go they didn't like. No, my mom will
just look at me like my mom has no filter
and no, like my mom is like brutal um. We
always joke that she caused my oldest brother's first divorce

(11:24):
because my mom, if she doesn't like you, she doesn't
like you. And I remember, um, yeah, now she was
absolutely not to the point that she he's not welcome
to come to the house ever. I don't want to
see his face like to that point, to that point, yeah,
really really crazy. Who is your favorite This is gonna
lead to something else. I'm gonna drop on us in
a minute, But who's your favorite singer? Growing up, Liona

(11:47):
Ricci and Minuto I didn't need a Nasario and Jolanta
mong Hey, Luless Rules. I was very much into local talent,
Puerto Rican artists Rusa. I jumped all over the map
I mean, honestly, I think I had. I went through
phases of heavy metal with like bon Jovi my first

(12:08):
concert ever in Excess. Then it was huge into wrap
and R and b Oh. I don't know if I
can really print a big fan. I don't know. Do
you have any regrets regarding your high school years at all?
I don't really made your regrets. I wish I would
have worked harder as a student in high school. I
was not a bad student, but I didn't work as

(12:30):
hard as I would like to when I got into colleges,
when I sort of realized my work ethic in school.
How about you regrets in high school and not learning
the second language? Oh, you're right, yeah, no, I you
know what, I should have paid attention to my mom.
You know, moms are next level, you know, especially my mom.

(12:52):
She has a third eye, to the point that she
dreams about having a third eye. So my mom, the
way she would go about this was a little brutal.
So you would like to rebel against it, but she
was always right, always no, and she was right e
I wish I would have listened to her more because
she was Yeah, she was always right. So, oh my god,

(13:16):
this one is funny. You know, guys, I have to
tell you a story. So when I met Eric, when
we started dating, right we started dating Eric, we were
always well in my thirties. You were in your thirties
as well as my twenties, thank you very much. And
you were not. Yes, I was three years older than me.
I threw your surprise, but I was like twenty nine. Okay.

(13:42):
So Eric did a playlist. He showed upen there my
house and he actually had a playlist like we were
in like junior high school or something like that. Alist
of like the romantic songs. I thought that was so
funny and juvenile. It was actually cute. I think that
my dad taught me it was all about playlist he was.
That was funny. I was like Mr Romance, thank you.

sick playlists in school. Again. My dad taught me that. Um.

first time. If you you put together a playlist of

this day he's one of my favorite singers of all times.
So I will do you are you are this song.

You know that song. Oh, that's faithfully. It is faithfully
about love. So that is your number one. That's no
number one, and you're never gonna find that. Then you
are You, you Are. That's the name of the lioner
Richie and then Madonna Borderline. I don't know if that's
a lot of the playlists would have made it for me.

I don't give a about builderline. My playlist for you
trying to seduce me, I don't know. I have to
think we're gonna seduce me. Borderline, I don't know I'm

to Mammoth for the first time. When we first started dating,

(17:01):
I put Purple Rain on my playlist on the drive
up to Mammoth. Well, that's we were jamming the Purple Rains.
My dream was to dance with that so one day

(17:45):
to lovel This takes me back. This would have been
my number one. However, would you want this happening? Thinking? Sing,
give me a little taste. What's taking alone in my
room sometimes to stare at the wall and then the
back of my mind, I hear my conscience call telling
me I need a girl who's as sweet as For
the first time in my life, I see him in love. Oh,

(18:08):
I need love. That was good. That sounded good. Vanilla
eyes over here, eyes all right, we'll coming up. We
have our good friend Eva Longoria here. She's gonna be
here after this break. We're gonna share a lot. We're
talking about a lot of questions, getting some relationship fun
questions with her. It's gonna be great. We'll be back.

(18:40):
One of my girls, one of my girls, Eva Lingloria.
What kind of that about Eva? Everybody knows this powerhouse,
this rock star. She's probably well known all over the world.
She is an actress, director, producer, philanthropist, super smart, wonderful woman, friend, wife,
mom to Sandy Um, there's so many things we can

(19:03):
say about about this dynamo. So let's just learn a
little bit more about her. I love her so much
and I'm so grateful that she's going to be part
of this podcast. He said, Ajo, So let's bring her in.
Almost you for joining us. We're good, We're going a
little naughty. Are you? Are you happy with your life
right now? Eric, I'm always happy with my life for

(19:24):
the most part, I think, so I try to be.
I mean, I'm sitting in the closet right now reporting
a podcast. How are you? My husband has he won't
let me cut his hair, and I'm like, I know
how to cut hair, let me cut your hair, and
he won't let me cut it. So he has a

(19:44):
man bun right now. Oh that's cue goo, that's xy.
That's nice. Nice, it actually is. I was like, man
bun and then he has it, and I'm like, I
kind of like it. I should keep We should keep
man bun after quarantine. I really don't think you'll get
him to break down and let you cut his hair.
You think another money, not me, not me, But like,

(20:05):
once we get out of quarantine, he'll have it. Really really,
he has great hair. Do a great job. I'm sorry.
I was doing an amazing job over under in like
three weeks. I say, he cracks in the next three
weeks and let you cut it out. Okay, it's funny.

(20:29):
I'm convincing very to keep the beard because you know
he's growing it, and he's half black half white. It's
super sexy, but he says that it's too crazy. This
is probably the longest it looks good though. He's got
a beard. He grows a nice beard, has the thickest
beard he's ever had. He's never had this long, but
he always has it. But he actually hates when he

(20:50):
doesn't have a bit. He looks like a totally different person.
Without a beer is the weirdest thing. Its transform a person.
He probably looks super young, like a baby without looks weird.
I don't know it's young. You're just like like my
dad in the mustache his whole life. One time you
had no mustache. It was a completely different person, just
the mustache. Yeah, everything. Did you see There's there's kids

(21:14):
on on Instagram or you know, the interweb, and uh,
their dads have like shaved their beard or something, and
they looked at them and they start just ball crying.
They don't even know who it is. They're like, it's funny.
You definitely prefer the beard. You don't want him shaving
his beard. No, No, I like you used to it.
I like I like that five o'clock shadow length. I

(21:38):
don't like this length. Right now. This is a little
you know what, little to do, and it was Towny
knows that he wants a mustache, because where's my mustache?
Daddy mustache? Must you have a while before you're going
to grow mustache? That's too funny anyway, So I want
to start asking you some questions because I know a
lot of our listeners they don't know this whole epid.

(22:00):
So for us, we took a walk down memory lane
between the two of us where we grew up, what
it was like, just our differences, our interests, sports, dating, everything,
and well we're complete nothing as usual. It was a
nimer and it wasn't it was funny. I let me
tell you, I know you guys for a very long time,
and I don't know oil and water and black and

(22:22):
white and yin and yeah, I mean I can't imagine
what this episode is sounding like. How you grew up
where rock you know? You know what I'll never forget. Eva.
I went to I think Santi was a newborn, right,
and I went to visit you. It was just you
and me. We were inside Scanti's nursery, right, and we're
just talking santies like falling to sleep, your breastfeeding Santhi,

(22:44):
and then Santi goes to bed and we're talking about
relationships of life and the business and a lot of stuff.
And you said to me, so, how did you guys
make it work? It's like really concerned, And I was like,
I don't know. I'm like, you know, we just do.
We're so different. Are we're joking about the fact? I

(23:06):
mean this is We've said this on the podcast before,
but it's like she grew up on a small and
a small on a small island and feels like she
came from the biggest city, like she came from New York.
She's this big, high maintenance everything, Like I'm from the
capital of Puerto Rico, San Juan, think New York. I
grew up in lap one day and I've got more
street cred more do you think Eric has a street cred?

(23:33):
Are you joking? King? Oh my god, we know, I
don't know. I really you know why it works because
you're both great people. You know, there's not like one
in the bunch. It's like, you guys are both good people.
But it is funny because I know ros Eric actually
understand the high maintenance of it. I know I made

(23:56):
it is I think I always say what are you
talking about? Whatever? Anyways, So I want to ask you
at what age did you move to Hollywood from Texas? Uh,
twenty twenty two? I was, I was gonna, I was

(24:16):
turning twenty two when I moved to New York and
not crazy. Yeah, and we were both pageant girls, but
you went a lot farterday. Do you want what, Miss
Corpus Christie, Miss Carpus Christie. The Miss Texas Pageant is
the most competitive pageant in the world, more than Miss Universe.
Like these bitches take it seriously. And there were girls

(24:39):
who moved to like Minnesota to win because they could
never win in Texas just to go to Miss USA
because they could never get path of course, couldn't get
pass their little local pageant. That is funny this and
paget is a sport, like I tell them in Puerto Rico,
pageant is a sport like we we love that. Were
you pageant crazy type or you kind of felt in

(25:00):
Were you like super nuts and out like the whole world? No, no, no, no,
no no no. I mean I'm from Texas where it's
pageants in football, but but I didn't grow up with it.
I was in college and I was in a senior
and my my pell grant fell through, like it just
it didn't happen, and so I didn't have any money
for my senior year of no money, and I was like,
what am I gonna do? I need money? And uh,

(25:20):
my girlfriend goes, there's a scholarship pageant, and I said,
what is that? What is that? And I was twenty
one years old and she goes, it's a scholarship pageant.
I was like, oh, so maybe you have to be
smart and it was real. It was a beauty pageant.
This guy does a scholarship. But basically I figured out
if I could get fifth place, I'd be okay because

(25:42):
then I would have like tuition or books or it
was like it was like books and then it was
books and tuition, and then it was like books tuition board,
and then books tuition board and money and so like
fifth place was. I was like, if I could just
get fifth, hopefully fourth place, I'll be I'll be good.
And I had never been in a pageant in my life,
and I called my mom, you know, I was I was.

(26:03):
I grew up in my family, the ugly, the ugly
Darglin right, which was not. Isn't that funny? Very true?
The ugly dark one. That's what I was because I
was on the dark hair and dark to my sisters,
looked like you and light eyes and very white. You're right,

(26:24):
and my my, my mom they call her the you know,
like the white aunt, because everybody's so light skin in
my family. And here it comes me like, but I mean,
I was so dark. So anyway, I call my mom
and I go, Mom, I need a dress. I'm gonna
be in a pageant. She goes, oh, honey, I don't.
I don't think that's a good idea. That was like, Mom,

(26:45):
she really thought, like, honey, you're gonna lose. You're gonna
feel bad, like she was. It was like and then
my sisters were laughing because they were like, okay, you're
gonna be in a pageant. I was like, I just
need to get fifth place. Oh my god. So I
didn't even invite anybody. I didn't invite anybody. I didn't
tell anybody, and I and and I stood wrong. I
didn't know how to stand. I didn't know how to

(27:06):
you know whatever I was, but I was. I was
ripped because I was in a rubbish constructor trainer, So
like I knew the bathing suit competition at points there
I knew, and then um, I remember like I made
I made top five, And they do the question on
the top five or whatever, and uh, the random questions

(27:30):
and and the one they dore one of the questions
it wasn't my question, but they go the first question
is and it was about remember remember that sheep that
was cloned back in the dollar Yeah, and it happened
that year or whatever, and it was like, what do
you think about cloning in the and the like moral
aspect of cloning? Right, and the girl next to me
she goes, what the fun is cloning? So then in

(27:52):
that moment, I go, well, I know I didn't get
this point, idiot, don't know what the question? Did you know?
What's sad that would happen to me? I was like,
what are you talking about? Cloning? She's like what is?
She's smiling through through her t t she goes what is?
And so then uh, we did the questions and then

(28:14):
I was like, okay, I know I got fourth place.
I'm so excited. And then I wont I want the
whole thing? And how was that phone call to your
mom saying, Mom, just so you know, I just want
I said, I had to send them a picture with
my crown or anything because they didn't believe you. That
is awesome. And in the prize package was it was

(28:35):
a trip to Los Angeles and that's where acting started.
But like I fell into pageants, which made me fall
into acting, which made me move to l A. So
when you moved to the States, when you moved to
l A, it wasn't for acting. It was just part
of the package. You weren't thinking, I want to be
an actress. Oh no, it was part of like, uh,
I came to compete in um in this like it

(28:58):
was called I M t A, which is like modeling.
It was modeling, really was modeling talent contesting. Yes, yes, yes.
And they gave me like a little like a cold reading,
you know. They gave me a sheet while I was
there and they said here, go enter this contest and
go enter that contest. And there was all these like
categories and I was like okay. And I got like
eighteen callbacks from managers and agents while and there was

(29:20):
it was like a convention of a thousand and you
have to pay. It's a lot of money. It's like
those those bar barbosan model things. He's it's expensive. But
I got the scholarship to go there, and I was like,
this is fun. I've just never been to l A.
And literally, in that moment, I go, I'm gonna be
an actress. I think I'm good at this. That was

(29:45):
but that was. I graduated college and then and then
came here and I didn't. I didn't. You know, ignorance
is bliss because I didn't know anything. But I knew
I had a degree, and so I said, I haven't.
I can get a job anywhere. I have a college.
I can degree on do do. What was your degree
in education and kinesiology? So it was physical physical science.

(30:08):
I wanted to be a physical therapist. I wanted to
be a teacher. I wanted to like study of the body.
Oh my god, did you think that? I knew? It
was like a left turn. And I remember telling my mom.
I said, Mom, I was in l A. And I said, Mom,
I'm staying like I didn't even take the flight home
from that trip. And she goes, I have no money

(30:31):
at twenty two dollars in my account and uh and
she goes, Okay, well, what are you gonna do? Said,
I'm going to get a job. And I went to
a temp agency and I got a job. So what
was that that first job? What? What? What was that
first job? Well, I went to the temp agency to
get a job, and the temp agency hired me. And

(30:51):
the temp agency the guy I was sitting in the
lobby and the CEO was Hispanic, which I didn't know,
and I was sitting in lobby and he actually thought
I was cute, so he told the receptionist send her
back here, I'll interview her. So I didn't know. And
I went in and and his name was Frank, and
he goes, so what do you want to do? And
I said, I just I'm an actress. I'm an actress.

(31:12):
I've been in here. I think there two days. I'm
an actress, So I I need time and I just
want like temp jobs here and there, and he goes,
what don't you work here? And I said, what's here?
And he goes, it's where temp agrees. It's like, um,
it's like matchmakers for people and jobs. So you find people,
you find jobs, and you put them here. And I said, oh, okay,

(31:32):
I mean I think I can do that. And then uh.
He literally like this was all within an hour of
being in this reception area, and he goes, great, here's
yoursel phone, here's the computer, that's your office. We gotta
go next door to have a meeting. And I go wait,
I'm sorry, what what? What? And that was my first
cell phone I ever had. It was the next tale.
It was so big, um. And so then we go
across the street to Sprint PCs. This was the client

(31:57):
and I'm like, I don't even know what we're doing.
And we it in this meeting and Frank goes, uh.
They were obviously mad because I guess he hadn't found
the people or whatever. So they were yelling in this
meeting and I'm sitting there going what the hell is happening?
And he goes, don't worry, I have a new account executive.
She's a telecommunication specialist. Her name's Eva. And I was like,

(32:18):
I'm gonna Tella, what oh god are you talking about?
And then he goes, all right, so I'll let you
guys talk and he leaves and I'm there with the
Sprint PCs people and they were just launching in l
A and they're like looking at me, like okay. So
and I was like, um, so, what what's the job?

(32:39):
And they go, look, we need weekend warriors, the people
in the malls that sell the cell phones on the
chios and uh. And it was ten dollars an hour,
weekends only, and I go, I want that job. I
want that job. I was like, I don't want this.
I don't even know what this job is. But that

(32:59):
was great because it's weekends only. I'm an actor. Ten
dollars an hour back then, I mean I think the
minimum wage was like six. I mean it was you know.
I was like, oh my god, why am I sitting there?
That's the job I should have had. And I go,
how many people do you need to go? If we
don't have thirty people by Friday, we're firing that agency.
And I was like oh. And then I just went

(33:20):
to my acting class and I said, this is the
perfect job for actors, and I told everybody in the
acting class to come apply, and like thirty people showed up,
thirty actors and they all got the job. And the
and the Sprint PCs people were so happy, and my boss,
the boss was so happy and he goes, You're like
a natural, and I'm like, well, yeah, but that was like,

(33:41):
that's like a no brainer. And uh. And I remember
him asking me, do you want to be base salary
or commission and I didn't know what that meant. I
didn't know what base salary meant. And he goes, well,
commission means you can make as much as you want.
And I thought, okay, that's what I want. I want
that one and not knowing you don't. You don't get
money until you yeah, And I booked so many people.

(34:03):
I was like an agent for for people, normal jobs
and I had sixty people the next week and I
had eight. I mean literally, it caught fire within Hollywood
because everybody wanted those jobs because they were easy. It
was on weekends, it didn't interrupt with auditioning, it didn't
interrupt with work, and you can make money and they
were blown away by by how good it was. And
I made great money. Like the minute I landed here,

(34:26):
I was like, oh, this is this is easy. And
my boss comes back to me like literally six months later,
and he goes, we need to we need to talk
about the commission structure because it wasn't built for this
volume like you're doing. And I was like no, no,
waiting to me what the commission was. I'm not gonna

(34:47):
read define it wory. It was so funny. And I
did that for three or four years and I didn't
did it. My first big break was Young and the Wrestler,
and it was I wasn't making enough on It was
like nine an episode. I'm Young and the Rest is
that I had to stay head hunting. So I did
it out of my dressing room at TBS for a
year while I was on Young and the Rest. You

(35:08):
know that, I remember my game. What's crazy is that
you were already producing a two years old You were
producing your pronucing that's insane. You know. I did a
political question your beauty pageant about exactly about clony. I
remember my first job in English was As the World

(35:29):
Turns when I was in New York, and it was
the same thing. I was making seven fifty dollars a day,
and I thought I was a multi millionaire, Like I
don't think you understand. I was like I made it,
I am wealthy, and nowadays I'm going And then, of
course I didn't even know what credit was. I remember
the first time I was at the Bronx with some
family members and when I went to apply for an

(35:49):
apartment in Manhattan, and they gave me the application on
whatever because they needed to check my credit. I was
like what, So I called my dad and I said, Dad,
they want to check I didn't freaking know what credit was.
I was sad. How if all of that would have
fallen apart? Do you what would have been your dream

(36:12):
job or what do you think if you didn't become
an actress? What do you think you would have pursued?
Do you know? Because I don't even like I think.
I think about this myself and I don't even know
exactly I know what my goals were, but I it's
so funny. I knew i'd be successful. I don't know what,
but I knew i'd be successful. I would probably be
running Sprint PCs right now like I was. Yeah, I

(36:36):
was very into corporate structure. I liked quotas and I
liked measurement, and I like metrics, and I like bars,
and like tell me the bar and I'm gonna pass
it like I like that. That's why acting frustrating me,
because there's no recipe for success. There's no I could
do exactly what Rosen did and we wouldn't have the
same outcome and that made me crazy. But in corporate America,
it was like sales, bottom line profit loss um, and

(37:00):
you knew where you stood and um. And I was
good with people, so I was great in sales. I
was like, I'd probably be in corporate America running running
would be it would you wouldn't go into kinesiology, wouldn't
have gone into into teaching and none of that. None
of that. Let me tell you, are you guys home
schooling right now? Is that like not a new appreciation

(37:20):
for teachers. I mean, Eric is doing ninety five Yeah,
he's doing ninety nine percent of it. And and it's crazy.
I don't have the patients. I don't understand anything. I
was like, I occasionally give you an art project. They're there,
They're the creative, artistic homeschooling. I come from a family

(37:42):
of teachers and so, and like I was the last
one in my family to get a master's street. Like
my my family's very educational focus, so they really wanted
me to be a teacher. My sister is a teacher,
and my mom was a teacher, and my aunts are
like and so we have such a great respect for
teachers in my family. But also like I'm the underachiever
my family, but they're like they're doing the real work

(38:03):
while I'm over here make plane, make believe. And I
was like, yeah, And do you think your passion for
politics is something that grew over time or do you
think that's something you always had an interest in and
new you'd find a way even to get involved with. No,
it grew, it grew, And I think that's what some
people are intimidated to get civically engaged because they think

(38:24):
like I don't know enough and I'm not I'm not
that involved, and you know that grew. I'm in high school.
They gave us a project, uh and my government class.
They said we had to volunteer for a campaign. You
could pick whichever one, but you had to go put
in some hours like registering people to vote or whatever.
And that's when I first kind of got the taste
of it, of like, oh, what's this. Oh so you

(38:44):
have to go and like register. Oh, and I wasn't
old enough to vote. I was seventeen. And then um,
when I moved to Hollywood, one of the first people
I met was Dolores worked Up, which I was really
lucky to have had her as a mentor before I
became famous, and she always said, you're gonna have something
to you know, one day you're gonna have a voice,
to make sure you have something to say, Like what

(39:06):
are you going to say with you once you have
a voice. And I was like, and I was on
younger the rents, I was like, I'm not gonna have
that big, good voice, um and and little by little,
I just I'm very curious and and so I just
learned more and and with her I learned a lot
about farm worker rights and how all the rights and
gains of the civil rights movements in the sixties for

(39:28):
farm workers have been dismantled, like they're no longer there.
And I was like, but why, and she'ld go blah
blah blah blah blah, and I go why, but but why?
And then I just never you never get to the end.
And as you keep asking questions, then you see how
policy affects those decisions, and like, oh, so California past
English first, you know, and so if you look at

(39:50):
that law, you go, oh, yeah, you know English for
the kids or it was something like that, and you go, yeah,
that's a good thing. English for kids. But it meant
taking out Spanish. And so there's a lot of like
ways that they they were these laws, you know, just
like like the Defensive Marriage Act. You're like, yeah, let's
defend marriage for everybody. I don't know, that's know what

(40:12):
it means. It actually means this, and you're like, oh man.
And so every time I got more and more and
more curious. And that's how how I realized how policy
affects people. And that's what excites me, not so much politics,
but like people. I have a funny story, but it's

(40:37):
not funny, it's actually a true story. Like I won't
was it like maybe I don't know if Santi was born,
maybe maybe two years ago. When when was the first
time I went to uh, this psychic his name is
Richard and he he's claimed for fame. Do you remember
this was that he predicted the Mega Marco whole thing
because she was a client and he had said to her,

(40:57):
you're moving to London and you're gonna blah blah blah.
And then it happened. You know, she moved to London
and she married a U not a prince potentially want right,
He's just not the next one. He stepped away from
the family now. But but anyway to make the story short,
so I would I wanted to go to the psychic
but I'm crazy and I get there. I don't even know,

(41:20):
I said Russell in. Sanchezaid the appointment was through russ
or something. It wasn't actually my name because I'm always
thinking what if they google you or whatever? So I yeah, no,
So like I wanted the place, I don't think the
guy he actually lovely Richard recognized me. He's an all
African American man. They used to call him the Prophet.
So I'm sitting down and right off the bat. Within

(41:42):
thirty seconds, he starts telling me stuff that I'm going.
There's no way, there's no way this man will know
this information. Like he was like, I keep saying, Ohi, Ohi,
what's happening with Ohai? No Santa Barbara. And I was
driving to the appointment when Eric was booking Ohi Valley
because we were gonna go away to Ohio for like

(42:03):
a goot to minification. And I didn't put it together
because I didn't think that Ohi was actually Sanda Barbara.
So anyways, I'm going back and forth. I'm going to
us in a Barbara, I don't know. He goes, no,
you know, OHI and I went, oh my god. And
then he goes, you know what, No, it's bigger than that.
It's not about a vocation. You're gonna end out owning
property over there because you want to land. And I'm like,
my dream is to freaking buy someone linding. OHI so

(42:25):
I can use it as a dug shelter because I
just want to rescue animals, right, insane stuff like that. Anyways,
halfway through the whole reading, he brings your name up,
and I'm going, oh my god. And then he tells
me she's gonna be into politics, heavily into politics, like
a very important figure. She's gonna be a congresswoman, she's
gonna be a senator, she's gonna be whatever she wants
to be. And I'm like, you know what, I believe

(42:47):
in a hundred percent because I see her as president,
think that what's gonna happen, Like I'm not just gonna
be president. No, no, but I've always done You're gonna
be president. So anyway, so I leave and I called
it immediately saying, oh I got it. They said, psychic
said to me, like, you're gonna be in politics, and
you're like, no, I don't think so I'm going I'm
not saying now, but later on you're gonna be heavily

(43:10):
in wealth. I know you are already, but yeah, you're
running for president, you know. So you grew Okay, So
going from that, because obviously you have these great political
you know, skills and mindset and everything. You have, not
even political, like you said, helping people, right, but political
as well philanthropy. You are incredibly smart with business and
navigating that. How was it in school for you? Was

(43:32):
that stuff that interests you? Were you an athlete? Were
you a cheerleader? Were you? Uh? What was your focus
in school? Like? Growing up? I was I was everything.
I was cheerleader, I was an athlete. I was a
band geek, I was a nerd. I was like I
was in math club, but I was a cheerleader and

(43:52):
I was in band, but I also was an athlete.
Like yeah, I love I did it all and I
wanted to do it all. I still like that, like today,
I'm like, I gotta do that. I want to direct,
I want to put in someone out. Um, yeah that's
why I was in school. Uh, but it's but as
far as like scholastically or academically, I wasn't great. I

(44:13):
was like a C student. I wasn't great. But it
wasn't until I went back to get my masters that
I really enjoyed what I was learning, because you you know,
in your masters, are so focused and you get to
really what you want to do. And I picked Chicano Studies,
which was you know, my my community in the Mexican
American history of of US, the history of Mexican Americans

(44:35):
the United States, and I devoured like I was in
a plus student and I would be the one in
class with the twenty one year olds and I'm like,
so I read ahead and I had a question about
you know, and they were like I was like in school,
I was like that I was my grades were always
I would get by through school. When I got into
college and I started to focus on what I thought

(44:56):
I wanted to be, which was medicine at the time.
Then I kicked in gear and I was zoned in,
like I loved what I was doing. I loved learning.
I was more excited about it all through junior high
high school. I was like, get bye, let me just
go play sports, let me do this. Let me do that.
I was jumping into everything with me. It was the
opposite because my mom is also a school teacher, like
like like your mom and your family, and she was

(45:18):
social studies, specifically the history of Puerto Rico, so and
she was a very strict teacher. Right. So all through
like kinder, all the way through senior year of high school,
my mom was along with me. So I was an
a student, but I believe that I was very smart,
but I think it was more because my mom was
a teacher and she was adamant that I was an
eight straight student. So I did amazing. But again she

(45:40):
was like like I remember, like I will have a test,
whatever test, my mom will make a test the night before,
right because she knew most likely this is gonna be
the test that you're gonna get right, Like she was
notorious at school, like all my friends would like, let
me see your mom's test, because I want to we
we get it right, We're gonna have We're gonna be fine.
So I did amazing all the way through senior They

(46:00):
don't went to college, and I was like, I'm done
with your mom. Just leave me alone because I don't
even want to do this. I was. I was going
to business administration and marketing because my moment. My father
wanted me to study business, and I'm like, I'm on
my own. And that's when I realized I'm a dumbas
started having bees at sees and after three years, I'm like,
I'm out. It's so sad. It's so sad. He's so sad.

(46:23):
I never finished. I know because I know what I
wanted to do, and they respected. And it was funny.
The second my mom let go and she wasn't all
over me, I realized, I don't think I'm that freaking
smart at least the books mothers that, Oh my god,
it was awful. I do think when you're interest kicking,
that's what helps you get smarter. When you're interested in something,
it's much easier to want to learn and explore. And oh,

(46:45):
I don't care about trigonometry, and I don't care about algebra,
chemistry based physics. It's not exciting. But that's like, that's
like in life. You know, when you're interested in every
in anything, it provides discipline, and so like I'm interested
in having nice arms. So my discipline of working out
every day comes from my interest in my clothes fitting. Uh.

(47:08):
But we're starting producing seminar and I'm all about it.
It starts tomorrow. I cannot like a virtual producing seminar
and I cannot wait because, like you said, it's something
that interests me. So I'm going to be all about it.
I'll be the best student because that's what I want
to do. Is funny, but if you put it like
Sabella doing what is Singapore whatever Mathsie Singapore math? When

(47:29):
Santi goes to first and second grade, you're gonna learn
a math. It's not our math. It's similar. It's not
the way to explain it. It's not how we all
grew up just carrying the one and doing the like
I want to count okay one to three for like
the way they do it, and it's the most complicated
bonds and I can't second. So that doesn't interest me.

(47:51):
So I'm of no use to sab and I'm so
sorry for her, and she looks at me like, mom,
how can we and how to get it? I'm going
for me, it was one plus one was two and
that that's it. That's it. I know, ready, get ready
for that. I have anxiety and I know I have
anxiety about it. Already I know. And then real first,
because we've been talking for a while and I know

(48:12):
you have your busy. When how do you meet Peppe?
We met through a friend. We met through a really
good friend of ours in Mexico City who was trying
to set us up. Unbeknownst to both of us, we
didn't know. I was in Mexico City and we were
at a restaurant and my friend goes, oh, how funny
Pepe Boston is here. Let's go stay hi. And I
was like, who's that? And he goes, you don't know

(48:33):
who Pepper Buston is. He's president of Televisa And I said, oh,
I know Televisa. I know Televisa. I don't, I don't,
I don't know him and uh. And so Peppe comes
over to the table. We say hello, hello and bye bye,
and that was it. The only thing I remember from
that meeting was we were reading the same book, which
was random and random because it was like a Kabbala book.
It wasn't even like one of my normal like Malcolm

(48:54):
Gladwell or you know, Oprah's book, like it was like
nobody and we were both reading. I was like, I'm
reading that and it was it's called Satan because it's
about your ego. And so every time I was on
a plane reading a book called Satan, people would look
at me and I got it's about I don't. I
don't like Satan. I just like every time I was

(49:15):
on a plane and people would look at me, and
I'm like, I gotta get the E book of this um.
And that's all I remember. I don't remember what he
looked like or anything. And then six months later, my
same friend was like, hey, go to me, go with
me to this lack my thing and I said, okay,
I couldn't go, and then I could last minute um,
and so I go when Pep is there and uh

(49:36):
and that moment was like fireworks. Like I was like,
who is that? And my friend Carter was like, that's
the guy I've been trying to make you guys, you
know interesting, and him too, he was not inserting me
six months before. And that was from that day. We
haven't been apart. It's funny. It's so much longer story,
but but I love you think it helps? Is it different?

(49:58):
Noise not? He's not the Mexican that you have dated. No, No,
I think so from Mexican from Mexican American, but a Mexican. Yeah,
from Mexico. Yeah yeah, but I know one that is
Mexican American, but okay, but from Mexico, Mexico. Just when
I started dating back, I called my mom and I go, Mom,
I'm dating a Mexican and she goes from Mexico and

(50:23):
yes where else? What do you do from? That's what
I'm saying, because we call ourselves Mexican here. And when
I met Bepa, He's like, that was like, you're not Mexican,
you're American. And I said, no, I know, but I'm
I'm I'm Mexican. And he's like, but you're not. Stop
saying that. I have that conversation with people all the time.
Mexicans in America called themselves Mexican. They don't call themselves American.

(50:45):
It's not it doesn't go. It's not synonymous with one
of these that Puerto Ricans in New York, even though
we're all American citizens. If you ask me, I'm Puerto Rican.
Like I don't see myself as American. I'm Puerto Rican.
But if you grew up, you're Puerto Rican from New
York born and raised. But to me, It's like you
don't know your reading posi, even though it is a
girl I work with who's Chinese Canadian. I say, where

(51:06):
you where, what your nationality is. I'm Canadian, but you're China.
But she should say, I want my my ethnicity. I'm Chinese,
but I'm Canadian. Is my nationality. But here in the US,
people don't just go I'm American. They Mexican and Mexican
and Mexican. They don't say yea cut the culture Chinese. Ever,

(51:28):
other ethnicities do it too. I think if you asked
a Chinese American, they're gonna say I'm Chinese. They're gonna
say American, even if they grew up here and they
were born here. Yeah, it's so funny. That's a big
it's a big debate because race slash um nationality slash
ethnicity slash cultural. I mean, those are very very different,
uh identities. And and when you're Mexican, American, Puerto Rican American,

(51:53):
Chinese American, you navigate life straddling that hyphen. Your people go, oh,
you're fift Mexican percent American. I go, no, no, no,
I'm a hundred percent Mexicans and a hundred percent American
at the same time, and that's hard because we just
sit on that hyphen and we just we're just both
and and for for Mexican Americans, that identity navigation has

(52:15):
been very problematic because we want to be proud and
hold onto our language and our food and our music
and but at the same time, you know, we have
to assimilate in order to um, you know, fully experience
what it is to be in this amazing country as well.
And so it's it's it's a very complicated, uh topic,
and there's so many many debates about it. Okay, two

(52:38):
more questions quarantine and and and Sante has been the
most glorious thing in the world or the most hiplicarious
isn't most glory We're potty training now, so that's even
that's fun where I think normally it would be stressful
because I'd be like I have to work and did
it in and I got a potty train and I'm
not quite doing both and I'm not you know now
it's like, you know, he's naked and we're exactly about

(53:02):
We attempted the last month and he wanted nothing to
do with it, and it was so it was the
first he did right away. I was celebrated like it
was like you just won the lotto. And then he
got a phobia and he can even look at the party,
which is so weird because once you have two, you
compare all the time. And Sabella it was two days boom.
She got it much younger than Daylan. So let's take

(53:23):
a break of a month and then we started in
and we're in the middle of the whole thing. Let's say,
let's see what happens. Have you read the book? Oh crap?
Is that what you guys are following with a book
called the three Day Party Training Books that we did
with Sabella. Have you done that one? Well, the old
crap is three days? Oh? Same? Within two days, Sabella
had it down azing, she was It was outrageously easy,

(53:46):
even at night. It was the weirdest thing. He's going
to be to the very bitter end. Well, women are
term superior agenda, I've come to realize, sor sorry. And
then what's next. Quarantine is over the whole code, COVID
gets under control. You're gonna go to direct your movie
the Cheetos. Yeah, hopefully, hopefully. I had two movies I'm directing.

(54:10):
It was supposed to be two movies this year, and
now that's not gonna both aren't gonna have both will
carry the one with Carrie Washington, the Somebody at the Universal,
and then we have Flaming Hut. So we'll see which
one goes first. But um definitely going right back to direct.
And I also have a show I'm gonna start, and
but I don't know if that's gonna start, Like everything's
up in the erics. We don't know, you know, what

(54:31):
life's going to be like. And then the queeby um thing,
how did that? How did that happen? You read it?
You loved them? Is that I went in no? Um No.
It's so funny because you know it's just like every
we all Andy Garcia and I have the same management
and so we are in each other's contracts. And every
time he's in something, uh and he has a wife,

(54:52):
he's like, we'll tell you to do it. And then
every time I'm in something and I have a husband,
I'm like, well Andy, do it? Tell Andy to do it.
So they called him to play the guy and he
told him. He's like, well, I want't even to play
my wife. And I directed a lot of the mix
which was on Fox, which started Caitlin Olsen, and Caitlin
is the funniest comedian ever. She's so funny and I

(55:13):
loved directing her and this is the time I get
to act with her, and she's she's the star of
that ship. So I was only like in one or
two episodes. But it's a really funny show. And there's
a lot of Latinos in it. Ortuo Coastro and Andy
Garcia and so many, so many, um great actors and
that was fun. And you know, Pretty's a fun platform.
Although you know it launched because statistics say most people

(55:35):
watch TV and movies on their phone, most people and
during the day, so you're like, oh, people are watching
at work, people are watching, the subway people are watching,
and transit people are watching, you know, in the Buk.
And so this platform launch and then now we're all
home and it's like, oh, okay, alright, one thing before
we let you go, we did this fun thing and

(55:55):
this is gonna be on the spot. You have to
see if you can come up with at least a
few I was bigger to make him play list in
high school, and you I love a good love mix playlist,
so we were talking about our playlist. If we were
to make each other one, give me your top three,
if you could think of three songs from when you
were growing up you'd put on your love playlist for Peppe. Yeah,

(56:16):
oh my love. I love player not just a jam
too at the gym. I'm talking about you're making a
playlist for Pepper in the old days where you stop
the tape and push the tape and hold the tape
and make your play your mix tape. We'll definitely be
um ll cool j I need love. That was my plank.

(56:36):
That was you planned the chat the just right. So
my song said that I'm gonna do I need love
because I'm gonna do I need love, and he goes,
and then we saw it with a six minutes song.
We go, Okay, we can't plank that long'll break it up.
I need love when I'm alone in my room sometimes. Um,
let's see that one. And Journey don't stop believe all

(57:02):
right even And then I was gonna say, Madonna, but
that's for me. If you're trying to seduce Pepper, you
need to be happy too. So Madonna, Hey, hey, hey,
Madonna's material girl. That's great. Anyways, thank you so much, Mom.
I hope you enjoyed it. I love you guys so much,

(57:25):
Miss brother I Mr. I get to see Eric space,
but I don't thanks to Eva our said. He's playing tennis,
even has a wonderful tennis court in her house. And
we keep social distancing. We don't even haven't been Eric Tasabella.

her use the cord, so they play some tennis once
a week. So thank you for that. You're amazing. Of course.

(57:45):
I love you guys, Thanks for having so much fun.
I thought we were gonna talk about relationship stuff. I
was ready to rap. We were supposed to. We can
alway if you want to add some more stuff that
we can time. We started talking about all kinds of
life stuff. But it's good as to how many cares that.
Nobody cares. I got to Hollywood. No, they do, they do,
they do everyone. No, nobody knew that that story. That's incredible.

(58:10):
Relationship questions. If you have time, you have two minutes? Yeah, no,
relationship he's not not yet. Okay, okay, what age is
your first kiss? Fourteen? I was late? Right? Is that late?
I was late? Well? Me. I think it was like
that too. Fourteen fourteen is one grain. I think it's sophomore,

(58:34):
like sophamar. No, you're a freshman in high school, the
ninth grade. I just remember he ate cheetos, and that's
why I will always remember for the kids. Yeah, that's
what happened to you. With the music video. I did
a music video with a big pop star and she
a commercial only remembers it is Dorito's. It's not funny,

(58:58):
and I did. I did the music video when I
first got to New York with a big and it's
actually a front of hours that we love. Um, this
big singer singer and I was like the model in
the video and he it was we had like a
love scene in bed. It was like, oh my god,
and he it was literally smoking okay action and he
would just kiss me and I'm going I'm going to

(59:19):
throw up right now. All I could smell was oh
my God, to give me a head. I it was crazy.
You know. You know what's a crazy is stepping ever
watching something last night where I mean they were kissing, kissing, kissing,
and then there was like another sex scene, another kissing thing,
and I thought, and I was reading how are our industry?
How is that? What's gonna change because of this COVID

(59:41):
thing about sexual scenes scenes that we have to do.
I'll keep freaking out. Yeah, I don't know. I don't
know what. I don't know what you exactly, And I
just as a mom, you'll freak me out if I'm
going to work and I have a love scene and
then the guy's freaking he has it, but he's a

(01:00:03):
symptomatic symptomatic as well, when you don't have any when
you don't feel a symptomatic. And then I'll come home.
I have kids, you know. Oh my guys. Okay, another day,
another dating thing. When did your parents ever? Did they
approve of most of the guys you ever? Did you
dated or did you have some ringers like we talked
about some in our last episode. Was like, oh my god,
what was I thinking? They didn't approve of some of

(01:00:25):
my marriages? Dating was good? Marriage is bad? Choices? Really,
you're just not so much they love Oh my god,
They're just like, well, you got it right, this time,
got it right. We love it. Have you did it?
Most of you? I know? Well, I know with your
marriages you've had different ethnicities. But if you did a

(01:00:46):
lot of Latinos or no, no, I didn't. I never
had a type. I never had uh an ethnicity or like,
oh Latinos only, or you know, Tony was black and
um my first husband was you know, white from Ohio,
and then I'm married. You know that I dated a

(01:01:07):
Spaniard from Europe and Spain, I mean, and then um
uh and then Peppi's Mexican, and then you know who
I haven't dated a lot was Americans. That's funny. I've
did it too, Americans, my husband. Yeah, I think too.
Like she was shocked when I hit on her, but

(01:01:27):
like I did in latin as my like my first
wife was white outside of that, like mostly Latina, Like
that's what I dated all my life growing up. So
meeting her was like whatever I didn't. She was shocked.
Approached you greeno, white boy, Why are you talking to
me for something? I do not talk to me? Rustling

your most Why do you like um the most from Pepper?
Like he's number one quality that you just go, yeah,

(01:02:13):
he's uh, he's so kind. He's the kindest human being
you ever me Like, I'm like, I'm not that kind.
He's nice to everybody. Everybody. It's just it's a big word.
There's a lot of stuff that falls under that that word.
You know that's awesome. I mean, what is your pet peeve?

(01:02:34):
Like something that he does that you're like, he's perfect,
But this thing he doesn't. He doesn't listen, he doesn't
hear me. I'm like, babe, babe, babe, bag today we're
gonna go, you know, to pick up you know, this thing.
And then later he goes, what are we going to
pick up this thing? And I'm like, I actually told
you and you said, okay, what time right? And then
and then well yeah, it's like I don't know what

(01:02:57):
it is. He doesn't hear me. Or I'll say, how
your mom called, you know, and she wants you to
call her back. And then two hours lady's like, I'm surriding.
My mom hasn't called, and I go, no, she did,
you gotta call her. And he goes you didn't tell me.
You didn't tell me, Like, oh my god, a face
that would be me. Like, I like reading a text
and he's talking to me. I'm concentrating on the text
and he gets so mad. He's like, are you listening? Going,

(01:03:19):
I'm reading something? Can you just read and listen? No,
I'm reading something. Just let me alone. That's I'm just
I'm doing I'm doing something. Anyways, that's it, that's it.
Let I want I want you to have some time
before a little little sad they wakes up. I can't
believe how blonde Deli Bou is, Like, were you that blonde? Eric?

(01:03:39):
Just like that? You see our one year picture and
we're both but Sante has super light hair as well. Yeah,
Santi's light. Yeah my dad ironically, my dad's very dark
and as jet black hair. But from one to step,
from zero to seven, he had blonde hair like Deli
Bou blonde. My dad blonde. So I think that's why

(01:04:00):
Sandy has it, or always says our neighbors German. So
it could be that too. Oh my god. Anyways, Okay,
now we're gonna let you go for real. Love you,
love you, bye bye. How awesome was that interview. We

(01:04:25):
learned a lot of new things, stuff that, as close
as we are to her, that we didn't even know.
I had no idea twenty three years and I had
no idea about the temp job and none of that.
It was fascinating to know. And she's so well spoken,
