Speaker 1 (00:00):
On, It's Mario Lopez.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
What Amrio? Courtney Lopez? You're back?
Speaker 3 (00:05):
Why on the mic? Excited to get to hang with
you for the next few hours. Fired up to me
today's guest a little later as well. Influencer, podcaster and
Jelly Roll's wife Buddy Xo. She is said to zoom
in with a scoop on her new book.
Speaker 4 (00:17):
Plus another helpful life acker too in Cordos Corner. Will
filter through your mentions to see what's on your mind,
dig into the buzz to see what is trending out there,
and so much more so.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Turn it up and let's go.
Speaker 4 (00:28):
You're on with Mario and Courtney Lopez.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
All Maria Lopez keeping the music in fun going and
wanted to mention this headline I call my eye. As
a matter of fact, I posted about it the other day.
It was a real New York Post headline. It said
daily showers are purely performative and have no real health benefit.
Experts insists, to which I said, the health benefit is
so you don't smell like crap.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Hope this helps.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
I don't even know what to say. What is it
with all these anti showering people Hollywood is leaning in
to this as well, and I'm in the minority, I guess,
because I like to shower at least twice a day.
If it's purely performative, then I would like to be
the greatest performer you have ever met?
Speaker 2 (01:09):
Right, But who were looking for? It's a weird thing.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
What abstaining from daily showers seems pretty antisocial, but medical
experts say that the modern obsession with cleanliness can actually
be hazardous.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
To your health.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
Prolonged and daily showers could strip away the skin's microbiome,
which plays a role in protecting the skin and is
also important and overall health of the body.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
You know what else is also important getting all the
dirt and germs off of your body.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Look, you don't have to go in there and start
scrubbing away every time, but a quick rinse with a
little soap is not gonna hurt anyone.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
More Mario Lopez coming up, y'all.
Speaker 3 (01:43):

Speaker 3 (02:02):
If you commute to work, you're probably like most people,
catch up on a podcast.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Or turn some calls listen to music.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
Of course, Well, turns out if you're jamming out to
some tunes, certain songs are more dangerous than others. In
the first one is Yah Mario Courtney Lopez, letting you
know that your choice of music could be making your
commute more dangerous. New research says music over one hundred
and twenty beats per minute can encourage drivers to speed
and make sudden laying changes. In fact, music attributes to
(02:31):
about a quarter of traffic accidents. Okay, so definitely no
house or techno in your player.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
Probably not gonna want that.
Speaker 5 (02:38):
No.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
They even came up with specific songs that can trigger it,
with Eminem's Lose Yourself on top at one hundred and
seventy beats per minute, Believer by Imagining Dragons, Even There's
Nothing holding Me Back by Seawn Mendez and Don't Start
Now by Dua Liipa could cause you to drive it radically.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
All those were so wait all those were hits though,
so you're getting.
Speaker 3 (02:57):

So when they first came to me, they were like, hey,
do you want a tour to do this book? I
was like, absolutely not because that's what I do for
a living with my husband. But they were like, well,
let you do it your way, and I was like, Okay,
if I'm going to do a book tour, I'm not
going to bookstores to sign books. I was like, I

Getting back to Bunny XO, who is on zoom with us.
You're all ma Mario Lopez, and you mentioned your podcast
dumb Blonde. Funny title and you sit down all kinds
of people. I mean, you've had Jan bon Jovi with Khalifa,
Maury Povich. This's gotta be so much fun. You still
enjoy that.
Speaker 6 (07:21):
Oh, I'm having a blast. And I actually named it
dumb blonde because you.
Speaker 5 (07:25):
Know, when I first got with my husband, everybody used
to be like, oh, she's just a dumb blonde. And then,
of course Dolly Parton, who's one of my you know,
idols that I look up to. Her first hit on
the radio was dumb blonde. So it's kind of like
an oxymoron tongue in cheek and they're like, Okay, when
she starts talking, maybe she isn't so much of a
dumb blonde.
Speaker 6 (07:43):
So I'm loving it. I'm having a blast. I love
being a safe space for people.
Speaker 5 (07:46):
To come on and tell their truth and their stories
of survival and like what they did to rise up
from the ashes. I just find so much power in
people's stories and their authenticity and I love it.

Pop's nothing? Everything's great, good good. Let me explain Richard Lopez.
Speaker 3 (13:11):
By the way, my dad's actual birth name is Mario
Alberta Lopez. Back in the day, he was dating a
lot of women. He used to give them different names,
and he gave my mom the name Richard. And not
until after a long time they were dating, he said, hey,
my real name is Mario. My mom was like, what
now you're Richard and me? So she continues to call
him Richard.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Fifty some audience, it's actually kind of romantic. Well well
is it?
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Or well, I mean the fact that she.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
Kept calling him, that she did keep calling him that,
That's what I mean.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Like she her family still calls him that. How many
different names used to get back on the day, Dad, Well.
Speaker 7 (13:42):
You know, at that time, really I had three girlfriends. Okay, okay, okay,
and they lived in the same town, different streets, and
so when I met your mom, Michael, uh, she asked me, oh,
I said, oh my god, it was the songs. I
never met a girl like you in my life.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
So I got out of.
Speaker 7 (14:07):
The my car and she you know whatever, and she said,
what is he?
Speaker 2 (14:13):
So, what's your name?
Speaker 7 (14:14):
And she told me her name, and then I told
her my name was Richard. The reason I did that me,
it's because I never thought I didn't want to get married,
I didn't want to get engaged.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
I never thought that taking. But she's the only one
that stuck with me, so damn, I god, let me
tell you. So then I went home to my mom
and said, hey, mom, you know what, I really like
this girl.
Speaker 7 (14:43):
She has uh, you know, the background like our family,
her dad, they.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Have thinking you know everything.
Speaker 7 (14:50):
And she goes, yeah, so what's the problem.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
But I told her my name was Richard and she goes,
why do you do it?
Speaker 7 (14:55):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
I just did it. I screwed up.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Yeah, she didn't help me out.
Speaker 7 (15:00):
I told her, I was, you don't help about You
didn't help me out.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
You don't know, so just go with it, know.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
So what I did so then we have to get up.

and stuff.
Speaker 2 (15:17):

birthday was wrong? All right, well, hey, you have to
come back and visit us tomorrow.

a living with my husband. But they were like, well,
let you do it your way, and I was like, Okay,

dumb blonde because you.
Speaker 5 (07:25):

to be like, oh, she's just a dumb blonde. And then,
of course Dolly Parton, who's one of my you know,
idols that I look up to. Her first hit on
the radio was dumb blonde. So it's kind of like
an oxymoron tongue in cheek and they're like, Okay, when
she starts talking, maybe she isn't so much of a
dumb blonde.
Speaker 6 (07:43):
So I'm loving it. I'm having a blast. I love
being a safe space for people.
Speaker 5 (07:46):
To come on and tell their truth and their stories
of survival and like what they did to rise up
from the ashes. I just find so much power in

Alberta Lopez. Back in the day, he was dating a
lot of women. He used to give them different names,
and he gave my mom the name Richard. And not
until after a long time they were dating, he said, hey,
my real name is Mario. My mom was like, what
now you're Richard and me? So she continues to call
him Richard.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Fifty some audience, it's actually kind of romantic. Well well

The my car and she you know whatever, and she said,
what is he?
Speaker 2 (14:13):
So, what's your name?
Speaker 7 (14:14):
And she told me her name, and then I told
her my name was Richard. The reason I did that me,
it's because I never thought I didn't want to get married,
I didn't want to get engaged.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
I never thought that taking. But she's the only one
that stuck with me, so damn, I god, let me

this girl.

her dad, they.
Speaker 2 (14:48):

But I told her my name was Richard and she goes,
why do you do it?
Speaker 7 (14:55):

It’s the unlikeliest of criminal partnerships: a devout polygamist from an insular Utah sect joining forces with a shadowy Armenian tycoon from LA. The result - a billion dollar fraud conspiracy.

Together, the two men trigger the largest tax investigation in American history and weave around themselves a web of dirty cops, influential political relationships and transnational money laundering. All this is set against the backdrop of Jacob Kingston’s clan – The Order. A powerful and secretive polygamist organization in Salt Lake City. To whom Jacob is desperate to prove his worth.
