Speaker 1 (00:00):
Okay, I have you the same. Let's go to as

(00:08):
one that aready ready for a theme lunch. Welcome back

(00:32):
to in our own world. Welcome back. I know you
missed us, you must have very much. And I missed
us me too, I missed myself very many times. Oh no,
that's really dark. Well, you know the first episode you
got to know is the second episode, we dove into

(00:52):
a little bit of our past. But we are pretty
silly people, wouldn't you say? I think we're pretty silly.
That's a good word to you. Well, I can tell
you for a fact that since I was a little girl,
everybody in my family, even if I wanted them to
or not, would prank me. And I feel like it
was an involuntary reaction for me to prank them. I
feel like it's in my blood. It's it kind of

(01:14):
is your whole family or pranksters, Like I don't think
there's a better prankster than your mom. And you and
your mom have like pretty tight competition. I mean one.
I mean you were there that day my mom literally hid.
We were in my brother's house right. Oh my god,
the hide and seats story, Oh my, I will never
recover from that. I just don't understand. What did you
do fold herself up like a nap, like an envelope.

(01:39):
At the entire time she and Sasha were hiding behind
the couch, it'd be like six inches of space between
the couch at the wall. Mm hmmm. It was crazy.
Here's for glow Mommy and Sasha. Yeah, you can't really
out do that. I think that laughter is one of

(02:02):
the great gifts of life, right, because there are moments
to be serious and there are moments to enjoy and laugh.
So okay, so games and pranking has been a big
part of your upbringing. If you don't laugh for yourself,
then I think a lot of moments that you go
through will just be traumatizing. And it's just much better
to laugh than to allow those to sink in as
traumatizing moments. I can think of one moment in particular

(02:24):
that was pretty traumatizing, but all I can do I
was laugh about it. I was in high school and
if I yea, this is like my most embarrassing moment
I think today and I really don't want to do this.
And in high school, we were in a history class
that was kind of like long. It was like railroad format,

(02:44):
I should say, And the bathroom was at one end
of the classroom and the entrance to the classroom was
at the other end, so I needed to use the restroom.
I asked to use the restroom. My seat was closer
to the end of the entrance of the classroom. I
walk toss the entire corridor of students, use the bathroom,
take my time, And at that moment, I was wearing

(03:07):
my uniform shirt with a little skirt because you could
do that. You could wear whatever bottoms you wanted. When
I leave the bathroom and I'm making my way across
the corridor, and I'm looking around, you know, because that's
just who I am. I see this one kid. I'm
never going to forget his face, and he was like pale.
He was like pale, and I was like, okay, weird.

(03:30):
I make my way around him towards my seat, and
when I finally sit down on the cold plastic, I
realized my ass is cold, and I'm like, why is
my ass cold? Why am I feeling my ass right now?
And it was that I had accidentally tucked my skirt

(03:51):
into the back of my underwear and just walked across
the entire classroom with my ass out. It was so
bad that realization moment was like if an anvil fell
on my head, What did you do just after that? Nothing?
I think I melted into the seat and never recovered.

(04:13):
I wish, I wish it was so bad at that
moment that his face registered were like it's set in that.
That's why he was looking at me that way. I'm
embarrassed here. I thought I was cute, you are, but
that moment was not cute. You were like feeling yourself.
I was feeling myself. I have no reason to be well.

(04:33):
I've been through many an embarrassment. In middle school, we
had a very small class and it was my graduating
class was like twenty four people something school, yeah, something
like that, And so we had these big stairs that
were probably maybe a foot and a half in depth each,
so they were like maybe five stairs all together, but

(04:55):
they covered a very large span. And at that time,
we still had a flag where you to line up
and you know, stand there and do the whole ceremony right,
roll call, you know, et cetera, and um. I had
never been late. You know my timeliness. How do I
feel about timeliness? You're a little obsessive. I like to
be fashionably late. No, I don't. She likes to be

(05:16):
the first person at the party, and I'm the host
who hates the first person at the party. We're gonna
talk about timeliness at another time, no fun intended, because
I feel like that's a very valuable topic. However, so
I like to be on time. So it was the
one day of the year that I happened to be
running late. And believe it or not, I had gotten
my period that week for the first time, I know, gnarly,

(05:40):
and it was middle school. I was older. I was
like the last person in my friend group to get
my period, so I felt really awkward about pads and
tampons and like, yeah, I know, I played a lot
of basketball. So you're in the flag. I'm running late
for the first time ever. I'm freaking out. I'm stressed.
My blood pressure is high, and I'm like too young
to have blood pressure that high, you know. And I

(06:03):
hear them like starting to line up, et cetera. And
I'm running down the stairs and I trip. No oh, no,
it gets worse. Not only do I trip when I
get to the bottom of the stairs front of the
whole school, well in front of the whole middle school,
which keep in mind, was twenty four people, which sometimes
makes it worse. This doesn't matter, it's your home middle school. Yes,

(06:29):
ah yeah. So anyway, I not only am late, I
tripped down the giant stairs and also I'm very small,
so they seem somehow more giant. And uh. At the
end of the stairs, two paths just flop out of
my bag and I'm like, well, social suicide. That's the
end of my life. I'm never coming back to school.

(06:52):
Nice to see you, guys. I guess my education ends here.
Good night. It was brutal, and you know, especially at
that age, I know. So there's some laughter that has
not planned and a little bit embarrassing, and then there
are ways to plan laughter a k. A prank everybody
you know for the rest of time. Babe. You know me.

(07:16):
You know I'm a prankster. If anybody listened to the
first episode, you know that that was the one reason
I got in trouble. I love not only making people laugh,
but messing with people that I love and know, and
you and I have a longgoing prank war that we've
had since the beginning of our relationship. And I would
just like the record to show that I am in
the lead. Or no, please don't open in with the buttons. No,

(07:41):
I am in the lead. Whether you like it or not,
you simply have not caught up. Now that's not true.
It is true. Just because you have a better video
compilation doesn't mean that, in the amount of pranks that
have been successful between us, that I am not the
one putting those pranks in motion. Okay, I better at
scaring you. It's not my fault. It is not my

(08:04):
fault that I throw myself. It's not position and slide.
Wherever I am, there are there's fight, there's flight, there's freeze,
then there's M and M at any point when she startled,
and I'm pretty sure there's a video of this on
the internet somewhere, for some reason, dives. She dives head

(08:27):
first into the ground, into the air, into whatever is
in front of her, because that is her natural reaction.
You startle M and she dives. She dives, which is
like the worst thing ever because you happen to usually
be like the more athletic person, more agile person in

(08:48):
the group. But if we were on a scary movie,
you'd be the first to go bu boo. Okay, So
instead of competing against each other, M and I have
decided to join forces today and put our best prink
foot forward and see what we can do to our
friends and family members. They're not expecting any of this.

(09:10):
They have no idea that this is happening. They'll know
later who's on the roster. Who's on the roster first?
Oh boy, let's see. All right, let's do this. I

(09:32):
think that we should, you know, dive in in in
your style. I think that we should dive in. Okay,

(10:22):
Hell's canna help you great. I'm a representative from TikTok.
I have been viewing your media for the last two months,
and I wanted to offer you a reels play bonus.

(12:09):
lot of the laws now are changing about like legalization
of marijuana and everything. And Okay, so today, like ten
minutes ago, they released that they want to pass a
law to ban reggae. I know they're gonna make it
illegal to play any kind of reggae rhythm anywhere in

(12:31):
the world. That's going to make us bigger. You know,
let them try that ship. No, Len, I'm serious, dude, Like,
we have to do something about this. If they're gonna
ban reggae, we have to do like a concert. We
have to get signature signed. This ship is crazy. They

under the I Heart Radio umbrella, and a brother of
ours in the network is Enrique Santos, who happens to
be a longtime family friend of Emily's. And so we

(19:34):
are going to call him and tell him that we
messed up, and Emily is going to tell him that
she sent something to my heart that she wasn't supposed
to send and needs him to get her out of it.
By the way, guys, we're throwing ourselves out there all right,
like we're trying to have a good time. But you know,

(19:55):
I'm as nervous as you are. So let's see, because
you know what, if I were in this asition and
we're receiving this phone call, I'd be a little nervous.
All right, Let's see how long you can milk it for.
Here we go, Here we go, Hey you, Hey, how
are you? I'm doing you good yourself? Good good? Oh yeah, listen,

(20:16):
you know you're like my big brother. I'm in a
little bit of a situation. I need some guidance, of course,
So I accidentally sent something to my heart that I

thing you could imagine? Who did you send this to? Um?

(20:40):
Like the you know, the I Heart team. Oh was this?

(22:10):
that he loves cetas and Cuban food. Is that right
or wrong? Yeah? He does. He does love all right.
So I'm gonna call him and I'm gonna ask him
for a quote from the National Institute of Croquetas. Let's
let's see what he says. You better change your voice
because it's your father. After all that, you sounded just
like your mom. Go up, go up. He didn't recognize

(22:33):
me the other day. Hello, is this Amelia Stefan. Yeah,
I'm calling from the National Institute of Croquetas. That's good.
I was wondering if you were able to facilitate a
quote because you were listed as one of the biggest
people enthusiast in Miami Beach. You owned businesses Laios on

(22:55):
the Beach, the cart Dozo. Is there any way you
could offer a quote for National Croqueta Day. Crokay today?
You know my daughters come a chef now and she's
very famous now in Coquetta. I don't think that's family. Hello,
I'm sorry, is this a Melion Stepan? I got your

(23:15):
number from a Janet Armus j A N E. T
T E. I saw. I saw it was my daughter
playing a crank. No, I'm so sorry, sir. This is
from the National Institute of Croqueta. Are you able to
supply quote for National Croquetta Day? Yeah, I mean said,

(23:37):
you know something that it's great to have a cockette
to day because you know it's so so popular that
we're so happy that you'll be able to do that
actulations and we're very happy to you know we wasn't
a winner of Food and Wine. Yes, that's why I'm calling.

(23:58):
I got your number from Food and Wine. I saw
that Lorios on the Beach was the winner in two thousand, nine, ten, eleven,
twelve and forty two of the best coquetta in Miami Beach.
Is there anything you'd like to say about that? No,
we're happy. We're happy to people like that that much.
But thank you so much for the coal and I
appreciate you call. Co Congratulations to everybody I love coquetta.

(24:20):
Thank you so much, good night, thank you, bye bye.
Thank you to everyone who likes cokada. My favorite. It's
a hacker the bottom right. I don't know of that

(24:42):
family that doesn't sound my Emily. I feel like, now
we need to call my mom and be like, bro,
I just got this call from a Croqueta. Was that you?
Was that you calling him? Croata? Woman? You got that call?
To hold on? Let me put them on hold on. Dude,

(25:05):
We're not only in the middle of shooting the podcast,
and we got like five calls from this person that
was asking about a quote from Food and Wine about
Croquetta day. That's gotta be maybe it's your brother. Maybe
it's your brother, or maybe it's maybe it's maybe it's
totally in date. Oh, because it was a four old

(25:26):
two number four old tweeters growing around. I don't know.
That was so weird. But then I felt like I
was on the spot and I'm like, well, Vegan Croke,
do I like Vegan? They just called your dad? What
did dad say? I know he loves No. He said, well,
I have a daughter who's become a shepherd's making you

(25:51):
wait what So he said that m was wait, but
wait a minute, what if they write that now? Mama?
They and he told her, Oh, I said, baby, it's
a four two remember that can be Emily. No, he said, well,
I'm very happy because She said that Laureos had won
the best Croqueta and all these years, like four they
named other all the years that it had been They

(26:13):
said it was the National Institute of Croqueta. Oh my god,
I bet you it's only in date or something, because
they did that croqueta movie Santos Enrique Santos. Maybe Oh

(26:34):
my god, giant weed smell out here. Welcome to California. Mom, anyway, alright,
goten chung is here? Oh yeah, babe, maybe it was Santos.
All right, love you guys. I love your mom. Don't
Emily the will Maybe your grandma just called you back. Also,

(27:06):
like we're getting all these these people pisted up and
just set me a text mustage saying lording and my
mom are trying to figure out who in the restaurant
set you guys pictures. Never never give yourself up. I'm
having too much fun. Oh my god, my face hurts

(27:26):
my cheeks. Oh my god, I am so that was amazing.
That was great. That was really good. Well, we hope
you guys have laughed with us as much as we've laughed.
And to our family and friends out there, I'm so sorry.
We love you, but you signed up for this. Well,
they didn't sign up for it, but I hope they
give us a permission. Okay, yeah, to all of our
friends and family out there, we're sorry, but thank you.

(27:50):
That was a blast. My face hurts. I need to
wash off facial asap. Also, we should go because we
have many an apology to make, right. Yeah, we should
probably start making our route. Whether you're laughing at yourselves
or laughing with people you love, the important thing is
that you laugh because it makes life a better place
and also too short, guys, and prank the hell out

(28:11):
of the ones you love because it makes life more interesting.
It does, and life is way too short, so it's
worth it to spend some moments like this just laughing
and enjoying each other's company. And if you have to
sacrifice a couple of family members sometimes to do it,
just be my guest. If this was any inspiration to you,
it is to grab a phone or make an account
with another phone number and prank call your friends. It

(28:33):
feels really good. Yeah. Plus after you prank them, there's
another conversation to be had, so you'll reconnect. Reconnect with
your mom, who we just spoke to like an hour ago. Well,
I don't think she's going to want to reconnect with
us very much. She we should probably never tell her
that we're the National Association of Well Earthlings. There's a

(28:54):
lot of material that I guarantee you cannot and will
not make it to this podcast, So if you want
