We're in here.
Speaker 5 (00:21):
We're excited for the movie project. Hell Mary, bro, you're
in this movie with with Ryan Gosling, and let's be honest,
you outshined him.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
Bro.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
You feel me like, that's crazy, crazy, bro?
Speaker 6 (00:32):
Congratulations, yeah, man, even though my dad says she's leaving
him for you now Bro, it's over.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
Yeah, man, it's just crazy. You know. You go in
the movie for like a couple of minutes, and that's
just how it goes.
Speaker 5 (00:43):
Sometimes it happens in hip hop, it happens in music.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
It's happening in movies too.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
Bro. No, but all jokes aside, like, it's incredible to
carry a movie for two hours and thirty minutes when
it's just ninety five percent of you on the screen
is incredible. Feat and Ryan's one of the best actors
that are right out there and it's like a vehicle
to show his charisma, his depth and all these things.
(01:08):
And I'm just happy that it's like to be in
this movie for ten minutes or however long a minute.
It is like these are the type of things that
you dream of, Like you watch a movie, you feel
the spartan like I just want to be a fly
on the wall in that world, and they let me
be a fly on this wall.
Speaker 5 (01:22):
I mean, you play your your character's name is Carl right,
and you're instrumental in the movie because you inspire him
to actually do this right, to do that, And then
you know, it feels like you're really that kind of
friend though right, Like you really have probably pulled the
homies aside and said like, yo, we can do this,
or you can do this.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
That's a good thing.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Yeah. Yeah, I always try to be that that homie.
That's like I feel like I know the power and
the feeling of someone believing in you, and I always do.
I do believe everyone has talent and purpose all these things.
It's like, I'm blessed that all of my homies do
have good ideas for the most part. If they don't,
I like to be honest to say, hey, man, that's
not so great, but you can get it there, or
(02:02):
that's just a flat out bad idea. But I do
think that I share that with car where if you
see it and it's like, I think it's my obligation
to push my friends to do the thing that they
need to do, like if they if they failed because
they didn't have the actually pushing.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
I feel like we all feel.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
That's right, No, that's right. Did you have fun making
this movie? Were you having a good time?
Speaker 5 (02:24):
I know, you know from what I hear, making a
movie could be tough, and there's a lot of time
where you're just kind of sitting around and waiting around
and that kind of takes the fun out of it.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
But did you have fun making this movie?
Speaker 1 (02:34):
I did, man, it was It was cool. It was
We did it in London too, a city I love.
There is a lot of waiting around, but lucky for me,
I just be nosy sometimes. So I was walking around
the set, like one of the sets was on an
old decommission I think like air force base or something,
So I spent a lot of time just walking around
there aimlessly, going in places I wasn't supposed to and
(02:57):
a lot of that type of stuff. But the movie
itself was lot of fun because christ and Filled the directors,
they're very improv friendly and a lot of the scenes
with Ryan we got to like riff a lot and
just like kind of define it. And it's like it
makes it feel like the type of things that you
like to do. It's in my wheelhouse. So just like
low stakes, having fun and following like rabbit holes wherever
(03:18):
they go with like stupid jokes or whatever. Like I don't
see the movie and you'll see exactly what I'm talking about.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
It's like that's that anglewood in you though, bro, just
walking around just peeping the scene, you know what I mean,
Just finding yourself in a room or different places like yo,
just exploring the city, right.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
No, exactly, you know, it's funny. I was talking about
this where it's like you can always tell someone grew
up in la when they walk in the middle of
the street in the neighborhood. I don't know what it
is or why we do that, but I like to
find myself, like I need to be just in the
street so I could see everything in every direction.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Nah.
Speaker 5 (03:48):
Yes, it's like zooming out right. So yeah, so you
can see everything absolutely exactly.
Speaker 6 (03:52):
Yeah man, yo, man growing up out here. We're all
from out here. We're on Real ninety two three here
in La Man. So you know your move up, you
know your progression and acting. You know, you go from
having fun on the lawyer squad and doing you know,
bits and pieces there, then you got your regular occurrence
on the bear and then you're moving up into the
(04:13):
the movie scene. Like, how does it ever get easier
for you? Or do you now feel more pressure? Like
I gotta outdo myself. I gotta out doing myself. I
gotta do myself.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
I feel like my relationship to it is interesting because
it's like you start to understand what pressure is and
where it comes from, and like a lot of it
is external. So it's like finding a way to keep
all of that at bay and keep it simple and
keep it like in this place so you feel loose
and free and like rubber where it is like I
do want to keep doing more, but I think it's
not about the pressure. If I gotta one up, it's
(04:45):
just like following the feeling of like I want to
keep doing this and I have a goal in mind
and I want to accomplish this goal. It's about this
specific goal in front of me, not like the external
thing of like is this better than the last thing?
Is this right? I don't like? Am I like this
invisible room that we all have where it's like the
people who's opinion you hot hold in the highest regard
(05:07):
sitting there, like sitting there like this, like looking at
the last product that you've done in judging it. It's like,
it's not about that invisible room. It's about just what's
in front of you. And like, I do feel that
I just want to do so many different things and
I just want to keep following that interest, so I
try to keep it there.
Speaker 6 (05:25):
It's more about doing what feels right right than doing
what yeah, I think is right or what other people
tell you is right.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Yeah, exactly. And yeah, I'm fortunate that these projects that
I've gotten to do have been things that I've just
genuinely felt the connection to. It made me feel something
that was like this is what I want to be
a part of. And it's been cool that people feel
the same way.
Speaker 6 (05:44):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 5 (05:45):
Project hel Mary is in theaters. It's a crazy movie
for sure. Linel, do you get mistaken for anybody.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Not really, I feel like, no, I'm trying to think
there's not, but I don't. I don't feel like I
don't dappelgangers. But also the name Linel, you know, you
don't forget that out of it. I haven't really met
any other Linels in life too, so I feel like
it's a two hander where when you're og name for
sure so oh yeah, yeah, yeah, it's like you're in
sixth grade and everyone's like, who's this eighty five year
old man on the roll? Call?
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Shit? Whose dad is here?
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Yeah? Exactly?
Speaker 2 (06:20):
What's up Jordan?
Speaker 4 (06:22):
Well, okay, so we talked or you kind of We
know that you come from all the future and you
grew up doing collaborative pieces with your friends and everything
like that, But how do you feel like being a
part of being a part of a collection like that?
So great with people now professionally.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
I feel like it informed how I like to approach things,
where it's like, to me, all the people I've always
looked up to have been people who collaborate with their friends,
and it's like that brings the best synergy because I
think you need that that level of like trust to
create an air stupidity to like make the best things,
whether it's serious or un serious. You need the air
(07:02):
stupidity to make anything that's that's like worth making. And
I was like it felt like being on the fringes
at first, making these like things with my friends and stuff,
and then you get putting like with the Bear or
something where you go inside the system and and within that.
I was fortunate where that also felt like that family connection.
So you seek that project to project and you realize
(07:23):
that is the best things come from that place. It's
not about being in the room with the people that
you want to be in a room with. It's like
if you can get in those rooms with your friends,
then yeah, that's the golden ticket.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Yeah, that's what it's about. Are you prepared for the
finale the Bear?
Speaker 1 (07:39):
I don't know, you know, like at some point in
someday to come and I don't know. It's like I
feel like I just don't think about it. I'm just
like I like to like keep my emotions at bay
as long as I can.
Speaker 5 (07:51):
You know, Yeah, no, I feel it, bro because you
know it could like, yeah, it can make you sad
or it can make you feel a way when you
think about you know, overall the entire epans.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Yeah, but every year, I mean every year you kind
of get a sense of that. It's like school where
you know, like the end of every school year you
feel like this there it goes like had such a
great time, You're dropping out of the pot. So it's
like we get you get a taste of it every year.
So I don't know that's when when that comes out
see how I feel, or I won't and I won't
process it for like fifteen years.
Speaker 6 (08:25):
Project hil Mary is out in theaters. Who was the
biggest jokester on the set.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Project hill Mary may either Ryan or I think maybe
one of the directors, feel is christ and Phil, But
I think Phil he's like he's like it's not that
he's cracked like making like hearing jokes. He's just like
got the natural, like funny demeanor and he's like throwing
(08:53):
Christen Phild throw a lot of improv in your ear
when you're doing things. But he was much more like
silly and where where you can tell he was scratch
a specific kind of itch. But also Ryan is also
very like silly, and that's what I think it's great
what makes him such a like great leader because he's
like lowering the bar for everyone else where. He's just like, well,
I'm gonna go here and like do these really dumb jokes,
(09:15):
so don't feel afraid to do the dumb jokes.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
That's oh he does dad jokes on side.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
A little bit, but now not. I mean, it's a father.
I feel like every I feel like, once you turn
twenty eight, you can't help but make dad jokes, whether
you want you or not. It's the start of that.
It's the start of the decline.
Speaker 5 (09:31):
That's like, well, it's also the start of unk, right
twenty eight Yeah, oh yeah yeah and unk yeah yeah,
yeah it is yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
I'm in the middle of that now. I'm thirty four.
I've come to terms with who I am now and
that your jokes don't land in rooms anymore.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Damn.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Yeah. It's tough. It's tough.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
It's tough.
Speaker 6 (09:51):
It's tough to fall off, bro, the fall off just
like Jacoble, But.
Speaker 5 (09:56):
You gotta be okay with it, bro, Jake, cal Mary,
what would you compare this movie to?
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Is there a movie you can compare this movie too?
Speaker 1 (10:04):
I feel like, I don't know, I feel like it's
I would compare it to like old school like nineties
like look movies where you can watch with your family,
where it's like with you go with your kids. It
doesn't feel like it's for kids in a way that
it's pandering where they're like, this is born watching a
little kid's movie. It's for It doesn't feel like it's
(10:27):
too adult where it's like something over the intellectual. It
like strikes this balance that movies like I feel like
like Roberts Mexicans, Roberts Meckis and like Spielberg would make
where they make these movies just for everyone. It's just
a big movie that captures every It's got every feeling
in it, and it's for everyone, and everyone will have heart,
you'll cry, your laugh, you may get scared a thing
(10:47):
or two. Maybe not, I don't know. But it's got
every feeling in it. So that's why I may would
compare it to those, but right now I don't know's
that's what's cool. It just feels fresh and original.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
You know, it's got a ninety five Rotten Tomato score.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
By the way, man, wow, that's crazy. I like, I
feel like I don't try to follow that too closely.
But less I heard that it was like I think
it was like low like ninety three, so it went up.
That's crazy.
Speaker 5 (11:12):
I've never heard yo, I heard Prince in the trailer.
Michael Jackson or Prince bro Hm hmmm.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
I feel like personally I always like Michael Jackson music more.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Personally too legend.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Yeah yeah yeah, Prince, it's not Jim I like him
as well, but I was always Michael. That was the one.
I was always on that track.
Speaker 5 (11:35):
No, no, no clickbait. But bro, like that's a big
argument bro in music like amongst.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Yeah, I know, yeah, yeah, some people might be mad
at me, but you know, also good, that's good all day. Bro.
Speaker 6 (11:47):
Hey, since we're talking music, Uh, what what song for you?
Growing up here in La represents l A to you?
Like you hear the song and immediately you think.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Oh, that's that's good. That's so it's so many like
songs that like sit in that because it depends on
like also, like I will say, first off, like this
for me, this is cool because it's like growing up
in here and like be like nine two point three
was like meant so much in like the car growing
up because there's like it's like ice cube. It was
(12:18):
a good day. Probably, I would say that that that
like sits there or summertime in the LBC Douve Shack. Yeah,
it's like the nostalgic where you're like on your way
home from school, about to get about to get a
butt whooping because you got a c r D on
your report card. But yeah, but yeah, I feel like
(12:38):
those two songs captures like quintessential l A like growing up, yeah,
back in the day too.
Speaker 5 (12:47):
I don't know, say Legendary, you remember Domino, You remember
like songs, yeah, like DJ Party like bro.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Yeh, DJ Quinn? What would you guys say? What's y'all pick? Like?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Next episode is one of those? Right?
Speaker 5 (13:02):
Next episode is like one of those songs that just
just sounds so la. It was a good day obviously,
you know poc Hell Mary that comes on, that's just
so la radio.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
I think Garcia, what about you?
Speaker 6 (13:14):
I would say today is a good day for sure,
And then like California Love Dre too. You can never
go around with that just because it's got everybody on
it too, you know, yeah, and you can't snoop what's
my name?
Speaker 3 (13:27):
You know? You just think about all.
Speaker 6 (13:28):
Those songs and you're right, it takes you back to
a time where you're bicycling home and you know, like
you said, you got a few.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
Tarties you gotta deal with with moms.
Speaker 5 (13:36):
You know, figured it out, You're about to get your
ass well. Jordan as a gen Z person A radio song,
La song.
Speaker 4 (13:43):
Okay, nothing but a g thing was like the first
thing that popped onl okay. And then I guess if
you want to bring up some Hendrick, I really really
like money treaties like connected that were they just don't
kill my vibe. That was like probably talk t.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Yeah, yeah, I mean yeah, it's also that's the interesting
thing to us, Like now it like means something different
because I also feel like even like if you say
Kelly is active like for like generation high school and stuff,
they'll be like, yeah, that that also fits in that box.
So yeah, it is funny how that like travels.
Speaker 5 (14:16):
Sugar free that sugar free in high school just hit different. Bro,
he was talking to talk.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
You feel mem PM camp all day.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Man.
Speaker 5 (14:25):
You know, movies and and and and radio have I
think they they they're they're maybe in the same world
as far as people have to pay attention right to
movies and pay attention to radio you know you listen
or you said, growing up in the car, you know,
ninety two to three in the car, right, how instrumental
was radio as far as in the car with your
family and you know, the connected to certain moments on
(14:48):
your way to you know, daycare, you got the radio on.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Yeah, I think it's it's I think it's just as
essential as because it's like memories, Like it's the other
important memories. Like when you think of a movie or
anything visual like a TV show, movie is always paired
with a song, a needle drop or something that feels
like it creates and evokes the emotion. So it's the
same thing, like that's coming from a place of someone
(15:14):
singing something, whether sometimes it's with music without, but like
very much like growing up a lot of nostalgic memories
because I remember the elementary squad went to I grew
up in Ngwood and I went like straight down Crenshaw.
It was like by the west Angele's Church. So it's
like that whole strip going home. It's like it's like
a tune to a memory ninety two point three for
(15:35):
like three years. It's just like all the songs or whatever.
It's funny because I always think about this Carl Thomas
summer Rand specifically it was June and fifth grade. It's
like every like for three days in a row that
they was just blasting that song whatever. So it's funny,
but it's just what I think. The radio is what
fuels the film and vice versa. It's like the image
(15:56):
to create a song, use a song to create an image.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
Yeah, I'm a big sound person.
Speaker 6 (16:00):
I wish soundtracks came back in a big way because yeah,
you know you let you grab like Boys in the
Hood soundtrack or those man like that. It meant so
much to me because yeah, because like you said, it
evokes such emotion with the visual and then the song paired.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
Man, Yo, want to thank you Lino for coming on
with us.
Speaker 6 (16:18):
Man project Hail Mary in theater now please everybody go
see it. It's got a ninety five percent Rotten Tomatoes.
I know Lino doesn't worry about that, but that's a
good indication of how damn good.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
This movie is.
Speaker 6 (16:29):

of yours and big fan of everybody and your crew.

(01:08):
And I'm just happy that it's like to be in
this movie for ten minutes or however long a minute.
It is like these are the type of things that
you dream of, Like you watch a movie, you feel
the spartan like I just want to be a fly
on the wall in that world, and they let me
be a fly on this wall.
Speaker 5 (01:22):
I mean, you play your your character's name is Carl right,
and you're instrumental in the movie because you inspire him
to actually do this right, to do that, And then
you know, it feels like you're really that kind of
friend though right, Like you really have probably pulled the
homies aside and said like, yo, we can do this,
or you can do this.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
That's a good thing.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Yeah. Yeah, I always try to be that that homie.
That's like I feel like I know the power and
the feeling of someone believing in you, and I always do.
I do believe everyone has talent and purpose all these things.
It's like, I'm blessed that all of my homies do
have good ideas for the most part. If they don't,
I like to be honest to say, hey, man, that's
not so great, but you can get it there, or
(02:02):
that's just a flat out bad idea. But I do
think that I share that with car where if you
see it and it's like, I think it's my obligation
to push my friends to do the thing that they
need to do, like if they if they failed because
they didn't have the actually pushing.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
I feel like we all feel.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
That's right, No, that's right. Did you have fun making
this movie? Were you having a good time?
Speaker 5 (02:24):
I know, you know from what I hear, making a
movie could be tough, and there's a lot of time
where you're just kind of sitting around and waiting around
and that kind of takes the fun out of it.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
But did you have fun making this movie?
Speaker 1 (02:34):
I did, man, it was It was cool. It was
We did it in London too, a city I love.
There is a lot of waiting around, but lucky for me,
I just be nosy sometimes. So I was walking around
the set, like one of the sets was on an
old decommission I think like air force base or something,
So I spent a lot of time just walking around
there aimlessly, going in places I wasn't supposed to and
(02:57):
a lot of that type of stuff. But the movie
itself was lot of fun because christ and Filled the directors,
they're very improv friendly and a lot of the scenes
with Ryan we got to like riff a lot and
just like kind of define it. And it's like it
makes it feel like the type of things that you
like to do. It's in my wheelhouse. So just like
low stakes, having fun and following like rabbit holes wherever
(03:18):
they go with like stupid jokes or whatever. Like I don't
see the movie and you'll see exactly what I'm talking about.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
It's like that's that anglewood in you though, bro, just
walking around just peeping the scene, you know what I mean,
Just finding yourself in a room or different places like yo,
just exploring the city, right.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
No, exactly, you know, it's funny. I was talking about
this where it's like you can always tell someone grew
up in la when they walk in the middle of
the street in the neighborhood. I don't know what it
is or why we do that, but I like to
find myself, like I need to be just in the
street so I could see everything in every direction.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Nah.
Speaker 5 (03:48):
Yes, it's like zooming out right. So yeah, so you
can see everything absolutely exactly.
Speaker 6 (03:52):
Yeah man, yo, man growing up out here. We're all
from out here. We're on Real ninety two three here
in La Man. So you know your move up, you
know your progression and acting. You know, you go from
having fun on the lawyer squad and doing you know,
bits and pieces there, then you got your regular occurrence
on the bear and then you're moving up into the
(04:13):
the movie scene. Like, how does it ever get easier
for you? Or do you now feel more pressure? Like
I gotta outdo myself. I gotta out doing myself. I
gotta do myself.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
I feel like my relationship to it is interesting because
it's like you start to understand what pressure is and
where it comes from, and like a lot of it
is external. So it's like finding a way to keep
all of that at bay and keep it simple and
keep it like in this place so you feel loose
and free and like rubber where it is like I
do want to keep doing more, but I think it's
not about the pressure. If I gotta one up, it's
(04:45):
just like following the feeling of like I want to
keep doing this and I have a goal in mind
and I want to accomplish this goal. It's about this
specific goal in front of me, not like the external
thing of like is this better than the last thing?
Is this right? I don't like? Am I like this
invisible room that we all have where it's like the
people who's opinion you hot hold in the highest regard
(05:07):
sitting there, like sitting there like this, like looking at
the last product that you've done in judging it. It's like,
it's not about that invisible room. It's about just what's
in front of you. And like, I do feel that
I just want to do so many different things and
I just want to keep following that interest, so I
try to keep it there.
Speaker 6 (05:25):
It's more about doing what feels right right than doing
what yeah, I think is right or what other people
tell you is right.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Yeah, exactly. And yeah, I'm fortunate that these projects that
I've gotten to do have been things that I've just
genuinely felt the connection to. It made me feel something
that was like this is what I want to be
a part of. And it's been cool that people feel
the same way.
Speaker 6 (05:44):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 5 (05:45):
Project hel Mary is in theaters. It's a crazy movie
for sure. Linel, do you get mistaken for anybody.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Not really, I feel like, no, I'm trying to think
there's not, but I don't. I don't feel like I
don't dappelgangers. But also the name Linel, you know, you
don't forget that out of it. I haven't really met
any other Linels in life too, so I feel like
it's a two hander where when you're og name for
sure so oh yeah, yeah, yeah, it's like you're in
sixth grade and everyone's like, who's this eighty five year
old man on the roll? Call?
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Shit? Whose dad is here?
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Yeah? Exactly?
Speaker 2 (06:20):
What's up Jordan?
Speaker 4 (06:22):
Well, okay, so we talked or you kind of We
know that you come from all the future and you
grew up doing collaborative pieces with your friends and everything
like that, But how do you feel like being a
part of being a part of a collection like that?
So great with people now professionally.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
I feel like it informed how I like to approach things,
where it's like, to me, all the people I've always
looked up to have been people who collaborate with their friends,
and it's like that brings the best synergy because I
think you need that that level of like trust to
create an air stupidity to like make the best things,
whether it's serious or un serious. You need the air
(07:02):
stupidity to make anything that's that's like worth making. And
I was like it felt like being on the fringes
at first, making these like things with my friends and stuff,
and then you get putting like with the Bear or
something where you go inside the system and and within that.
I was fortunate where that also felt like that family connection.
So you seek that project to project and you realize
(07:23):
that is the best things come from that place. It's
not about being in the room with the people that
you want to be in a room with. It's like
if you can get in those rooms with your friends,
then yeah, that's the golden ticket.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Yeah, that's what it's about. Are you prepared for the
finale the Bear?
Speaker 1 (07:39):
I don't know, you know, like at some point in
someday to come and I don't know. It's like I
feel like I just don't think about it. I'm just
like I like to like keep my emotions at bay
as long as I can.
Speaker 5 (07:51):
You know, Yeah, no, I feel it, bro because you
know it could like, yeah, it can make you sad
or it can make you feel a way when you
think about you know, overall the entire epans.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Yeah, but every year, I mean every year you kind
of get a sense of that. It's like school where
you know, like the end of every school year you
feel like this there it goes like had such a
great time, You're dropping out of the pot. So it's
like we get you get a taste of it every year.
So I don't know that's when when that comes out
see how I feel, or I won't and I won't
process it for like fifteen years.
Speaker 6 (08:25):
Project hil Mary is out in theaters. Who was the
biggest jokester on the set.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Project hill Mary may either Ryan or I think maybe
one of the directors, feel is christ and Phil, But
I think Phil he's like he's like it's not that
he's cracked like making like hearing jokes. He's just like
got the natural, like funny demeanor and he's like throwing
(08:53):
Christen Phild throw a lot of improv in your ear
when you're doing things. But he was much more like
silly and where where you can tell he was scratch
a specific kind of itch. But also Ryan is also
very like silly, and that's what I think it's great
what makes him such a like great leader because he's
like lowering the bar for everyone else where. He's just like, well,
I'm gonna go here and like do these really dumb jokes,
(09:15):
so don't feel afraid to do the dumb jokes.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
That's oh he does dad jokes on side.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
A little bit, but now not. I mean, it's a father.
I feel like every I feel like, once you turn
twenty eight, you can't help but make dad jokes, whether
you want you or not. It's the start of that.
It's the start of the decline.
Speaker 5 (09:31):
That's like, well, it's also the start of unk, right
twenty eight Yeah, oh yeah yeah and unk yeah yeah,
yeah it is yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
I'm in the middle of that now. I'm thirty four.
I've come to terms with who I am now and
that your jokes don't land in rooms anymore.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Damn.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Yeah. It's tough. It's tough.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
It's tough.
Speaker 6 (09:51):
It's tough to fall off, bro, the fall off just
like Jacoble, But.
Speaker 5 (09:56):
You gotta be okay with it, bro, Jake, cal Mary,
what would you compare this movie to?
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Is there a movie you can compare this movie too?
Speaker 1 (10:04):
I feel like, I don't know, I feel like it's
I would compare it to like old school like nineties
like look movies where you can watch with your family,
where it's like with you go with your kids. It
doesn't feel like it's for kids in a way that
it's pandering where they're like, this is born watching a
little kid's movie. It's for It doesn't feel like it's
(10:27):
too adult where it's like something over the intellectual. It
like strikes this balance that movies like I feel like
like Roberts Mexicans, Roberts Meckis and like Spielberg would make
where they make these movies just for everyone. It's just
a big movie that captures every It's got every feeling
in it, and it's for everyone, and everyone will have heart,
you'll cry, your laugh, you may get scared a thing
(10:47):
or two. Maybe not, I don't know. But it's got
every feeling in it. So that's why I may would
compare it to those, but right now I don't know's
that's what's cool. It just feels fresh and original.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
You know, it's got a ninety five Rotten Tomato score.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
By the way, man, wow, that's crazy. I like, I
feel like I don't try to follow that too closely.
But less I heard that it was like I think
it was like low like ninety three, so it went up.
That's crazy.
Speaker 5 (11:12):
I've never heard yo, I heard Prince in the trailer.
Michael Jackson or Prince bro Hm hmmm.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
I feel like personally I always like Michael Jackson music more.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Personally too legend.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Yeah yeah yeah, Prince, it's not Jim I like him
as well, but I was always Michael. That was the one.
I was always on that track.
Speaker 5 (11:35):
No, no, no clickbait. But bro, like that's a big
argument bro in music like amongst.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Yeah, I know, yeah, yeah, some people might be mad
at me, but you know, also good, that's good all day. Bro.
Speaker 6 (11:47):
Hey, since we're talking music, Uh, what what song for you?
Growing up here in La represents l A to you?
Like you hear the song and immediately you think.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Oh, that's that's good. That's so it's so many like
songs that like sit in that because it depends on
like also, like I will say, first off, like this
for me, this is cool because it's like growing up
in here and like be like nine two point three
was like meant so much in like the car growing
up because there's like it's like ice cube. It was
(12:18):
a good day. Probably, I would say that that that
like sits there or summertime in the LBC Douve Shack. Yeah,
it's like the nostalgic where you're like on your way
home from school, about to get about to get a
butt whooping because you got a c r D on
your report card. But yeah, but yeah, I feel like
(12:38):
those two songs captures like quintessential l A like growing up, yeah,
back in the day too.
Speaker 5 (12:47):
I don't know, say Legendary, you remember Domino, You remember
like songs, yeah, like DJ Party like bro.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Yeh, DJ Quinn? What would you guys say? What's y'all pick? Like?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Next episode is one of those? Right?
Speaker 5 (13:02):
Next episode is like one of those songs that just
just sounds so la. It was a good day obviously,
you know poc Hell Mary that comes on, that's just
so la radio.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
I think Garcia, what about you?
Speaker 6 (13:14):
I would say today is a good day for sure,
And then like California Love Dre too. You can never
go around with that just because it's got everybody on
it too, you know, yeah, and you can't snoop what's
my name?
Speaker 3 (13:27):
You know? You just think about all.
Speaker 6 (13:28):
Those songs and you're right, it takes you back to
a time where you're bicycling home and you know, like
you said, you got a few.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
Tarties you gotta deal with with moms.
Speaker 5 (13:36):
You know, figured it out, You're about to get your
ass well. Jordan as a gen Z person A radio song,
La song.
Speaker 4 (13:43):
Okay, nothing but a g thing was like the first
thing that popped onl okay. And then I guess if
you want to bring up some Hendrick, I really really
like money treaties like connected that were they just don't
kill my vibe. That was like probably talk t.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Yeah, yeah, I mean yeah, it's also that's the interesting
thing to us, Like now it like means something different
because I also feel like even like if you say
Kelly is active like for like generation high school and stuff,
they'll be like, yeah, that that also fits in that box.
So yeah, it is funny how that like travels.
Speaker 5 (14:16):
Sugar free that sugar free in high school just hit different. Bro,
he was talking to talk.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
You feel mem PM camp all day.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Man.
Speaker 5 (14:25):
You know, movies and and and and radio have I
think they they they're they're maybe in the same world
as far as people have to pay attention right to
movies and pay attention to radio you know you listen
or you said, growing up in the car, you know,
ninety two to three in the car, right, how instrumental
was radio as far as in the car with your
family and you know, the connected to certain moments on
(14:48):
your way to you know, daycare, you got the radio on.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Yeah, I think it's it's I think it's just as
essential as because it's like memories, Like it's the other
important memories. Like when you think of a movie or
anything visual like a TV show, movie is always paired
with a song, a needle drop or something that feels
like it creates and evokes the emotion. So it's the
same thing, like that's coming from a place of someone
(15:14):
singing something, whether sometimes it's with music without, but like
very much like growing up a lot of nostalgic memories
because I remember the elementary squad went to I grew
up in Ngwood and I went like straight down Crenshaw.
It was like by the west Angele's Church. So it's
like that whole strip going home. It's like it's like
a tune to a memory ninety two point three for
(15:35):
like three years. It's just like all the songs or whatever.
It's funny because I always think about this Carl Thomas
summer Rand specifically it was June and fifth grade. It's
like every like for three days in a row that
they was just blasting that song whatever. So it's funny,
but it's just what I think. The radio is what
fuels the film and vice versa. It's like the image
(15:56):
to create a song, use a song to create an image.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
Yeah, I'm a big sound person.
Speaker 6 (16:00):
I wish soundtracks came back in a big way because yeah,
you know you let you grab like Boys in the
Hood soundtrack or those man like that. It meant so
much to me because yeah, because like you said, it
evokes such emotion with the visual and then the song paired.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
Man, Yo, want to thank you Lino for coming on
with us.
Speaker 6 (16:18):
Man project Hail Mary in theater now please everybody go
see it. It's got a ninety five percent Rotten Tomatoes.
I know Lino doesn't worry about that, but that's a
good indication of how damn good.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
This movie is.

of yours and big fan of everybody and your crew.
