See mail man, you already know what it is, your boy,
Meloy mal of eight oh sixty show, and we're here
for another edition of Sunday Conversation with a very special guest. Somehow,
some way, I found him here in America, which is
if you know, this guy is hard, it's hard to do.
It's how to get this guy grounded? Travel Media content creator.
(00:44):
Thanks you Noise for Kevin saying the ball everybody.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Thank you for having me love and I appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Man, thanks for found time, found timing your busy schedule
to stop by the studio.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
I was saying, that's been years since we got a
chance to catch up, and it's been a minute trying
to get this together.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
So I'm excited to.
Speaker 4 (00:59):
Do the best. The best ones are usually the ones
you gotta work for a little bit.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
I was busy. That's a good thing. It's a good thing,
you know.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
So Sunday morning, you know, Sunday morning is usually the
only time I get to have like breakfast, really like
a real breakfast, because usually it's like I'm a banana
yogurt out the door kind of guy. So what do
your if you have a Sunday morning, you get to
sleep in, which I'm sure you don't get to sleep
in a lot with.
Speaker 4 (01:20):
Your busy schedule. What do you having Sunday morning?
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Man? For me, I'm a I'm a definitely a bottomless
but most the kind of guy there's like, you know,
bottomless with most of the deal going on.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
I'm there.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
I'm obviously you know, I work with a lot of
restaurants and stuff, So I tried to definitely kind of
reach out to those places and connect with them for
Sunday mornings and make sure that people get a chance
to know where everything's at so that if they do
have some time on a Sunday morning, they can get out.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
You know, it's funny because I was gonna head into
the traveling, but might as well, you know, start with
Boston and start the hometown.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
Like you said, you have connections with these restaurants.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
So if I'm like waking up, which usually you know,
I'm over at Yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
Usually I'm not really outside anymore.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
I know, it's crazy a lot of people who know
me for being really outside in a decade, I'm retired.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
I'm happily retired. Happily retired.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
But if I wanted to, you know, check out a
Sunday brunch spot in Boston or even around here, even
short area.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
What's some places you probably.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
One of the spots I always recommend to anybody whenever
they're coming to visit Boston, or whether they're from the
area or not.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Estella.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
They're Stella and they're right next to the Common, and
I just like it's right right in Boston. It's it's
a train station. It's a quick train right away from Wonderland.
So it's a great spot for you to go and
hang out if you want to, like make it a day,
make a day out of it. The comments is right
next to it around here. I haven't been to Stephanie's on.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
People.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
If you see this, let's connect because I've been hearing
a lot of really great things.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Listen, I haven't had the pleasure because it's it's again.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
I'm old, and I see.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
That the ig cliffs in the it looks you know
what they know, you know you when you look at
a clip like yo, it looks.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
Loud and Monday.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
I gotta go to work on Monday, Andy.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
You know.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
But you know, thank God, when I used to party
out and used to be out, I don't think brunch
was really like a thing like that wasn't thank you
for the I think it's because the party people got older.
It's like, yo, I can't be doing this Friday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday.
I remember when I was out with Johnny we would
have a a Thursday night, Friday night, Saturday night.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
And I'm like, yo, it's because you know, you know,
I've noticed that that it's it's I'm actually glad that
it's something that has kind of started or gotten recognized
a lot more here in the areas because it's something
that's popular and other cities, like a brunch is something
that's super popular in other cities in Dallas, Houston, you know, Miami,
(03:47):
New York. Even so, I'm glad that there's finally some
spaces here that we can go to and and check out.
But I got to take it easy on Saturdays, man,
because Monday.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
Literally everybody says like, yeah, you make the thing is like.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
All right, people, I'll say Dominicans, I rack on Dominicans
a lot, but listen, sometimes we deserve to get racked down.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
Even though I'm proud.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
I'm very proud, but you know, like everybody, everybody had
their flaws, and it's like bruns. It's supposed to be
eleven am to like three. Stephanie's Bruns don't start till three.
I'm gonna let you know right now, that's just not
the three. And it's not like any club thing is
not popping till like six o'clock.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
It's more like lunch than that.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
Yeah, so it's like a broad is not there all day.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
You're there all day. You know.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
We were like, at least you can get drunker day
and I'm like, yeah, but but you're going home at
like ten eleven o'clock like a party all day. But no,
Stephanie's is definitely shout out to them. Yeah, for sure,
that's a spot that seems to be popular.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
I think they have the themes. I see a bad
bunny theme.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
You know. It's another good one too, Aprils. You've been
to Aprils? Oh yeah, yeah, Aprils is a good one too.
I like them because they usually shart breakfast later into
the day too, So so I usually go to the
one down in Lenno, the one right here on on.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
My co host r E g uh uh for Mito
six show goals. I believe.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
I don't know if I want to say this, because
now you know, our millions of fans are got to
know exactly where to find him for breakfast.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
But he usually goes. He usually goes.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
If you ever go to April's on a Sunday morning,
you can catch my man just sitting at the conter
with a steak and eggs unwinding.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
Damn. But you know now that you mentioned Sunday mornings
and breakfast in the same conversation. You know one place
that I recall spending a lot of Sunday mornings is
Dev's dining.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Oh see, but you say Sunday mornings, but you mean
Sunday morning, asking like Saturday night, one in the morning,
the three in the mornings.
Speaker 4 (05:43):
It is Sunday morning. That was.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
And the funny thing is that you wouldn't have no
idea who you would run into the most or nobody, nobody.
The thing about Dev's diner, it was always packed. You
show my agent, I'm trying to send us.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
I'm showing my age, like like my gary, like like
a great graind funny to say, you know this lot,
what was I talking about?
Speaker 2 (06:10):
It was like your age, showing your age.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
Before that the old age of showing exp I was
talking about. I don't know, just escape my head.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
That That's the funny thing is it was always packed, right,
but there was always a seat for you always.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
I don't remember a lot of times you go there
and you be waiting to get it's always popping, But
somehow there'll be one booth like they knew you were coming.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Is it still dinner?
Speaker 4 (06:41):
I believe they got bought out like many things.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
I mean, is it still the same like I mean, I.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Don't know exactly. I mean, it's I think it's just
still a diner, a breakfast spot.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
That's dope, But that's definitely.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
There's actually a couple of new spots here in Salem
that I want to check out pretty soon too, So
I'm gonna come and spend some time here in Salem
because I know that has been like some revamping and
stuff like that, but a lot of.
Speaker 4 (07:04):
That restaurant rivalry change. There. The one on the corner there.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
Yeah, there's actually a Dominican guy that he's on He's
I feel like he's like next to like Ace Hardware
or with the hardware store used to be. So that's
a spot to check out if you're ever look Salem's.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
Always always little things.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
And it's funny because like when you think of Salem,
obviously you think about all the Halloween stuff and all
the tourist stuff condos, wink wink, But I don't know
if it's really known as a food spot, like a
foody spot.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
Yeah, so you know, I'm glad that you mentioned that.
So I'm I'm gonna be working with a couple of
businesses down here in Salem to kind of highlight some
spots to check out outside of like the Halloween kind
of season, because I feel like there there is a
lot to see, especially having to train for people that
come to visit. I have a lot of friends that
come out of state to visit and think that they
(07:57):
can only come to Massachusetts order Salem there in the
holiday season so or during Halloween. So I I there's
a ton that you can do out here.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
And Salem is actually a really hot footy spot.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
There's a lot of breweries, well not a lot of breweries,
but there's a couple of places for you to have
some bruise here, and I mean it's changed a lot.
There's definitely a destination that I always recommend to people
to come check out, you know, whenever they're visiting.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
So all right, like you said, you're a travel guy,
let's go, what's gonna go through continent to continent? Bro?
I think that's like honestly, like before actually before we
even get on, this is a popular question. Like at
the end of every podcast we call, we have something
called both Cosett of Questions to ask you a random questions.
Speaker 4 (08:40):
You need to choose one or the other one.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
And a common question that I always ask is when
you're in a flight window aisle window, for sure your
window the window always?
Speaker 3 (08:52):
Yeah, window. I tend to not get up when I'm
on the airplane, so I just let I'm always the
window because I just for some reason, I love to
see you know, where I'm landing, and you know they take.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
You're not gonna tell me. You're like, you're the guy
a flight to JFK. You're the guy opening the window
to look at the clown.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
I'm ready, bro, I'm always ready.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
I'm always there's always trying to get some sleep.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
There's always some guy with the window all the way open,
looking up like they've never seen CLOBs.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
No, no, I just you know, I feel like it's
like a it's a good like especially those morning flights.
I'm definitely like a morning like guy. It's just like,
you know, it's just like inspiring in some ways, you know,
like I'm always I'm always you know, cautious, you know
if people are, you know, sleeping and stuff like that.
But you know it's I just when I'm like, I
landed in Utah the other day, man, and and it
was like seven in the morning, and those mountains just
(09:40):
looked incredible, like there's no way you can't look at it,
you know.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
So, I mean, I guess it's more not really taking off,
it's more of the landings.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
Yeah, absolutely, all right.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
I feel like you'd be a pretty good person to
ask some good airports some bad airports, and you're your opinion. Actually,
I think you could probably give us a top three
for all the damn airports you've been at.
Speaker 4 (10:06):
Give us the worst three airports. I'll give mind fee
i've been.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
What are your What are your worst three airports?
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Oh yeah, I'll start off. I'll start off number one, Chicago.
Ohair I don't know whether a lot of things is
like the.
Speaker 4 (10:20):
Experience I had on a layover. Yeah it might have
not been. Are just a bad airport? But for me.
You call me at a bad time.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
I think it was what we're going to Jamaica and
again we're being cheapd and let's do a layover in Chicago,
which I don't understand why we're going to Chicago for
going this way.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
But you know, I'm the passing. I'm not the pilot,
you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Whatever, I'm not gonna like if I'm saying Copilo my
girls driving, I'm not.
Speaker 4 (10:42):
Gonna tell us take I left a right, you know
what I mean?
Speaker 1 (10:45):
You get there, gonna get there, and I remember just
delays and let me just we'd be like thirty minutes
before we're going to board.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
Nope, hour and a half. Nope, that hour and a half.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
So definitely Chicago, JFK for sure, Jesus Christy layover JFK.
We're like, yo, you laying You got forty five minutes
to take a two buses, a trolley, you know what
I mean, to get the gate you land in gate three.
Your connected gate is ninety seven, and then let you
(11:14):
They're just like, yo, you gotta figure it out.
Speaker 4 (11:16):
Forty minutes JFK.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
What will be the next on most of the international
ones is pretty good. I could think of, um, Atlanta, Yeah,
that was that.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
Was gonna be my number one. But the reason why
it's number one is they're actually pretty good when it
comes to delays and stuff like that. The reason is
because the airport is just huge, like, and what happens
is they'll they'll you'll get to Gate one and then
your connection is thirty minutes away, well thirty minutes in between,
but then your gate is forty five minutes away and
it's at Gate one hundred, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
So then you have to like take a train and
do all.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
These things to get there, which is what causes a
lot of the delay, especially if people don't travel through
there that often they're just kind of like, am I
gonna get to my flight? But I definitely would say
Atlanta for sure. I'm gonna have to go with I've
been doing. I've been going to Louisiana a lot. So
New Orleans Airport is Yeah, New Orleans Airport, you have
to make sure. So for Boston. One of the things
(12:23):
I love about Boston is Boston if you don't all,
if you aren't checking any bags, you can pretty much
get in and through security in like ten minutes. It's
really quick to get easy. But if you have bags,
you gotta check them in. Obviously that takes a little
bit more time.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
But and I I if I'm flying, I'm going ten minutes.
Unfortunately I have a girlfriend, so it doesn't matter.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
For it doesn't matter for traveling for two days to
New York.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
We're checking the goddamn bag every single time. And in
furious I was like, yo, bait, we're going three days back.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
Take it on the flight. You know, I need the skatecare.
I needed this, I needed that.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
I need that.
Speaker 4 (12:58):
I mean, trust me, you have global entry.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
I got TSA pre check. I don't have global entry.
Speaker 4 (13:05):
How in the world I have?
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Are you traveling like Carmen San Diego, haven't got don't
because there's this thing it's called the.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Mobile passport. Yeah, the mobile passport.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
I swiftly get through any any TSA, you know, any
type of customs that I'm coming through, sometimes actually even
faster than the Global entry. So since I have the
TSA pre check, I'm waiting for that to expire so
then I can get the global entry. Just because you
got them both.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
Talk I was like, I'm gonna leave you in that line.
I'm gonna leave you in the immigration line, like I'm
not gonna wait. It's funny that Jamaica trip when I
went to uh we stopped in Chicago on the way.
Speaker 4 (13:44):
Back JFK customs wild maybe two.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
And a half hours jail. Gary and my other cousin
had global entry. They got through in two minutes, and
they lately went to the rest. I know what, they're
going to go into Times Square and get me boo
to come back.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
I just don't know why they do that. They just
they put all the flights coming in at the same time.
What causes that traffic overay, you know what I mean.
That's another time where you missed a lot of your
flights too.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
So after we got through all that mass, I vowed,
oh I think I think I signed up a while
I was the airport to get it.
Speaker 4 (14:17):
Yeah, and then I got it. From then on, it's
almost it.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
I'm not sing it, I'm not doing it. It's worth
it for sure. But like I would say New Orleans.
So in New Orleans, whenever you are let's say you're
getting a car, it's it's like a good thirty minutes
from the airport. Still in the airport. But like thirty
minutes away, so you're you're kind of like you have
to So if you're returning the car, you have to
(14:39):
get there like an hour earlier. As as it is now,
you have to get there thirty minutes before the flight
goes through. So I think that's one of the worst airports.
And then so I said Atlanta New Orleans, and I
have to say Miami Miami International. Yeah, Miami International is
just is just an older airport, you know, so it's
still really it's kind of confusing to get around. And like,
(15:01):
for example, my my mom, she doesn't really like to
make connections, but a lot of places she wants to
go the connections are in Miami, so she's kind of
had to like learn how to kind of work with it.
But like you know, JFKM, it's funny you mentioned that,
but JFK LaGuardia. Those are two airports that I've gotten
so revamped that anybody that's never flown could easily make
(15:21):
it right through without having any you know, any issues.
It's just it it runs really smooth there. But those
three I would say, for sure, what.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
I tell people, oh, you want airport food, because I tell.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
You know, if I have to I'll do it, you know,
but you can bring your own food.
Speaker 4 (15:37):
No, no, no, here's here's my thing.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Go for the change, for Wendy, go for the like
you know what I mean. Heck, New York Deli, b
Stroke probably Skip.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
Bro, you know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (15:49):
Probably, But they, I mean they have they have they.
I've found some really great fried chicken spots that I like.
So I'm like, you know what, let's just try it
out and see what happens. I mean, it's twenty dollars
a wing, but you know it's it's worth it.
Speaker 4 (16:01):
It's worth it, said I was a JMK. My brother
got a you know what.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
You look at the Prepperoni pizza and I'm looking at
him like, yo, you really want that pizza?
Speaker 3 (16:10):
Birs pizza man, they paid for it.
Speaker 4 (16:14):
That was We were going to Miami for the but
we're landing for a lot of though. We were going
for a Smart Moves Yeah smart, so much cheaper. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Well, we're going for the World Baseball Classic Classic a
couple of years ago in Miami, and he almost made
me missed a game.
Speaker 4 (16:27):
My dad's like trying to be you know, like, oh,
he's no feeling what we're gonna have to miss a game.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
I was like we oh.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
I was like, girl, man, tell tell them to lay
down or puke and rally. I was like, yo, you
can rally puke that out in the car. You stick
to say cheap. We're playing Venezuela in thirty minutes, like
we gotta be out out and you know, we don't
know where we are if you never know, uh, we're
playing at the Marling Stadium and that's in the middle
of Little Haiti.
Speaker 4 (16:52):
So it's literally like, I.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
Think it was two years ago that you went yeah
about yeah, because my favorite one a couple of years
ago and they freaguring out a blast.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
Oh. It was a fun time.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
But you know, once you figure out what's going on,
you get there to you know, some dudes like you
a hundred dollars apart, I'm like, what realizing that the
garages are free.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
A lot of people don't know that the stadium.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
The stadium garage is completely free. Were almost paid. You
almost paid for that.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
She was crazy just really quick before and now that
we're kind of in the airport thing, did you did
you know that you need a new license to realize
to travel? If you guys don't have your real life
d Make sure you guys get that because you are
gonna need it for travel, I know, unless you have
your passport. But you don't want to, you know, be
on your passport all the time.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Unfortunately, I got lazy because when I went to renew it,
you go, you're missing a letter or something.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
I was like.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
I was like, damn, She's like you can still. You
can still get your renewer, but you're going to come
back for your new idea.
Speaker 4 (17:46):
I'll come back.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
I never came back, so yeah, I'm going for a
lot of deal and may and I have to bring
the sport. Honestly, I've watched so many movies and TV shows.
I bring my passport anyways, just in case some ship happened.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Unless you gotta get out from there.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
I mean in case i'md like I need to leave
the country real fast.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
That's very true.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
Just have it on you.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
Just put in your bag, zip it up. You know,
not that I'm out here doing stuff that I need
to leave.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
You just never know.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
You don't know, man, I've seen a lot of a
lot of stuff. All right, let's travel, let's get it.
We're going to start first, we'll start.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
Let's get it.
Speaker 4 (18:22):
It goes South America.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
Let's get it.
Speaker 4 (18:26):
Hold on, what's your favorite country.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
In South America? I'm sure he's been there. That's so
that's where I'm heading at. Did you say Brazil? All right,
let's call it Brazil. But that's zeal somewhere where I
almost went. My dad wanted to go for the Olympics
a while ago. But like you know, like most Dominican fathers,
promise you something and it's not gonna happen.
Speaker 4 (18:50):
Be there, so it's a dream. But tell us about
Brazil and your travels there.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Yeah, man, so Brazil is pretty dope. It was a
couple of years ago. I think it was right after
I think it was right after the pandemic, so things
were still a little bit like still kind of like,
you know a little bit.
Speaker 4 (19:10):
You know, didn't have the swimmer bar. That's what happened
to me.
Speaker 3 (19:15):
Things were, well, no, they're a little bit more open
over there, so I think they were a little bit
more liberal. And it was right around like like Carnival seasons,
so they were like opening things up. So it was
kind of still you know, getting to normal, but there
was still like the there was still the the masks
and stuff like that. So those people wearing masks. But
that was dope because I got a chance to really
connect with the with the people of like the they're
(19:38):
called the familias, So the familias are like it's pretty
much like just like the hood. That's that's that's where
it's you know usually. I mean, I guess, you know,
to tell you something about Brazil, I guess Brazil wants
that part of at least that part of Rio to
kind of remain like that, like, so they don't want
tourists to really go in there. But something over the
(19:59):
past couple of years that has happened is, uh, there's
more and more people going to going to to explore
and so obviously they're changing their ways. So I was
really insightful to see that. It was it was crazy,
but then Brazil also has it's like nightlife, so obviously
it's a great time. You know. I I you know,
(20:20):
speaking Spanish, do you think that we can understand them
because no, no, no, it's it's well, I mean sometimes
here you can understand them a little bit more because
they're any of the americanized over there. That was one
of the hardest things for me was the language barrier
and I just couldnt understand a lot of the things
(20:40):
that they were saying.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
I mean Portuguese.
Speaker 3 (20:42):
I feel like I can understand Portuguese because it's a
lot closer to Spanish than what actual Brazilian Portuguese is.
But uh, but no, it was dope, man. It was
I got a chance to see the the Christ of
the Redeemer. It was likelievable. It was unbelievable. And you know,
I've see I feel like when we were growing up,
(21:03):
you know, uh, just the TV channels that we had.
Always for some reason, I feel like there was always
that clip of the of the whether it was like
a magazine or something. We always kind of have, like
at least for me growing up. Sorry, and I always
sorry at the place that like I would never be
able to get to. So going there was like a
big deal. That was the first the first country in
(21:24):
South America that I went to the world yeah that too,
So that was you know, I was like, damn, I'm
checking something big off my list right now. So I
definitely recommend anybody to go. And I feel like a
lot of people maybe shy away from because it is
so far, but it's actually so cheap to get there. Man,
the travelers is a long trip. I mean you're you're
(21:45):
you're making a connection in Miami. Obviously there's no direct
flights really, but you're making a connection to Miami, so
at least you have that like split. So you're maybe
looking at like, you know, four hours, three four hours
on to Miami and then anywhere from like six to
eight down to to real but you know you're being
fed and stuff like that. The plane's a little bit
more comfortable, so it's not that bad. And obviously because
(22:06):
you're traveling longer, like people tend to go for like
longer times. But you don't know people that have gone
for three or four days, and you know they all
they want to go and do is see the Christ Redeemer.
That's really all you need, you know, to be honest,
three or four days is enough. But if you really
want to enjoy and see like the rest of Rio
or of Brazil, you know, there's so many other more
(22:26):
beautiful cities that you can check out. So I can't
wait to make my way back there because I feel
like I need to. I feel like I need to
due over because I got all the sights in I
got all the sights. I did a helicopter tour. But
helicopter yeah, man, dude, the helicopter to yeah, man, that's
that was tough.
Speaker 4 (22:41):
But I'm like that, literally, like put a stop that.
Speaker 5 (22:46):
You know.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
There's a couple of Kobe and then roller coasters was
the instant that happened in Orlando.
Speaker 4 (22:51):
A couple Yeah, what's not that. I was like, well,
no more roller coasters. You get old all that.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
Stuff, like you know, yeah, no, I learned. I learned
to be a little bit of a there dull because
I put myself in some situations where like there's no
turning back.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
You got sometimes I gotta say that. But if you
put me if I'm in Brazil and you're like, yo,
you got a.
Speaker 4 (23:09):
Chance it, you know, like I can't.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
I can't wait until we get into the part of Asia.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
Yeah, I's not that pilot is gonna get interrogated for me,
like my man, and you need to tell me you flew.
I hope a Navy seal or something something something at
the point that you flew, like if if he's under
the age of sixty, I don't want to like brow
I felt.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
I felt it was mat comfortable, bro. It was. It
was mad chill. But the reason honestly that I feel
like I need to go back to Brazil is because
of the food. Because I left with the mentality from
here that the food was going to be like a
Brazilian steakhouse, and it's not like that at all. A
lot of the flavors are a lot different. So I
feel like I need to do over to kind of
like you know, learn more about their food and like
(23:52):
try like other things. Because I was I was definitely
stating like the toyst the areas and like eating in
the hotels and stuff like that, and and yeah, I'd
go back just for the food to Brazil, but or
at least to try the food in the area.
Speaker 4 (24:05):
Let's just poke. What other countries in South America have
you visited?
Speaker 3 (24:08):
We'll stay are Argentina was off the hook if I
had it.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
We don't have like technology or the budget to do something.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
Steveee guys, Steve guys, you know, get a little green
screen going, don't but it'll happened. I got it. Argentina
was dope. Argentina was Argentina felt more of like a
different It's.
Speaker 4 (24:35):
Crazy, like how close they are to each other. Different.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
Yeah, Argentina felt like I was more like a different
country than in Brazil. Brazil, like even though I can
understand the language, it was like if you were and
some Toomingo, you know what I mean. It was it
was very Caribbean. Argentina just felt very like like a
different I mean, it's a different country, but it's like
a different continent. Just felt different. The culture was super
(24:59):
different and over there, so that was dope. I've been
to Ecuador down there was just pretty dope. I got
a chance to go to the zero latitude line, so
that's the equator, so that was dope, and like the
water goes down the other way and like that.
Speaker 4 (25:14):
Like I'm not a scientist or whatever, but like that
should be the hottest place on Earth.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
No, it's not.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
No, it's like you would you would think that, but
it's not.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
It's actually and I think, well maybe maybe in some
parts of the Earth it is, but the part of
the Earth in the equator where it's at there, it's
so high up in the mountains that that's probably why
it's it's even though it is closer to the Sun,
it's still it's still It was pretty chilly, but that
was dope. Then you go a little bit like I
want to go to Peru's so high on my bucket list.
(25:43):
That's a place I really want to go to Peru.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
Peru and the other food.
Speaker 3 (25:48):
I've had Peruvian food here and I hate traveling like
going off of what I've had here, but I've I've
heard too many good things about Peroving food. So that's
a place I want to go to. And and where
else have I gone to? Down there? Colombia.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
Colombia is a must travel for everybody, but.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
Unfortunately, hey, take a battle. It's a battle. It's a battle.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
I'm holding it for future, you know, a batch of
party future, like you know what I mean, Like you
know Colombia.
Speaker 3 (26:22):
Colombia is a cousin of d R, cousin of Puerto Rico.
They're there, the Columbia and I was a really great
time up there. But there's there's a lot oh I
went to them being which is is he all? That's right? Yeah?
So that was pretty dope. I went to Uruguay and
where else have I been to? There's there's a lot
down there still that I need to visit. But I mean,
(26:44):
like Venezuela, as a place that always wanted to visit to,
but it's obviously like really difficult to get in there.
Speaker 4 (26:49):
So if you could literally if you got a genie,
you got a genie. He's like, Yo, you get to
go to one country, pick up a play right now,
and bring it back which one? It is one plate?
Speaker 3 (27:00):
One people that you have to say not excluding like that,
like something a little mingo like because obviously I'm gonna yeah,
you know That's.
Speaker 4 (27:09):
Why I said, like, what's your favorite breakfast? And you
said my Google?
Speaker 3 (27:11):
But you know my believe it or not. Bro, it's
a toss up. You know it's a toss up because
I mean, I guess it depends, like you know, it's
a toss up because I would probably either grab So
there's two plays that would grab a plate from real
quick and come back from either Egypt, okay, or from Bali. Yeah,
(27:33):
Egypt or Bali. Man. I was so surprised with the
I wasn't surprised with the food in Bali at all,
because you know, it's not Chinese food, but it's Asian food,
which are used to and it's a lot of noodles,
a lot of rice, a lot of grilled chicken and
stuff like that. So I mean, anywhere in that part
of the country, it's gonna be really great food. But Egypt.
I was so surprised with the food in Egypt because
I didn't know really what to expect. But they have
(27:54):
like poogisal, they have rice, and they have like you know,
they'll have like the rice poidugiso and then like have
beans with potatoes in it.
Speaker 4 (28:03):
Out that sounds like you just went to a t
you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
But it's just obviously right now, the flavors are a
little bit different, but like, you know, that's what That's
why I was like, That's why I think I loved
it so much, because I was like, damn, look at
where I'm at right now. Is that is that a pyramid?
Speaker 2 (28:20):
But I'm like, damn talking to Egypt, looking right at that.
Speaker 4 (28:25):
Shout out and the guys. I don't know what you're
doing over there. I try, I try not to live.
I try some things. I don't know whether it's real.
They dug it up. I don't know what they be doing.
Speaker 3 (28:33):
But yeah, man, like yeah, I was.
Speaker 4 (28:36):
I was.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
Really. I think that's why I enjoyed it so much
more because I was like, damn. I was like, look
at where we are in this part of the part
of the world than how many similarities we have, you.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Know, all right as well fly over there, right South America,
Let's go to the Pacific.
Speaker 4 (28:51):
South Pacific.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
Yes, South Pacific. Yeah, that's like, you know, like I
haven't done too much in Asia, but I've done a
lot of like Southeast Asia, which is like like I've
been to the Philippines, I've done Cambodia, I've done Thailand,
I've done Indonesia, I went to I went to.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
Taiwan, which is pretty dope.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
And I just you know, I love If there's one
place that I would recommend if anybody ever asked me
where they should travel to and they have time to go, uh,
it's definitely like Southeast Asia, bro, because like your money goes, so.
Speaker 4 (29:27):
That's a popular popular answer.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
Yeah. I think we've had shout out to my guy Nigel.
He's also a common San Diego guy, like you.
Speaker 4 (29:36):
Travel.
Speaker 1 (29:37):
It's very funny because like I know, everybody's watching this, like, yo,
finally we get to find out what the Kevin does
for goddamn living.
Speaker 4 (29:44):
They've been traveling for the last decade. What is he doing,
I'm here to answer. That's why he's here, guys. But yeah, yeah,
definitely that's a popular answer.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
I think Niga when he was on here said, like
Southeast Asia, to me, that's a long, long, long, long flight.
Speaker 3 (29:58):
That's that's why that's a lot of people don't go
because like the people don't realize that the amount of
money that you spend. Then Kana, let's say, maybe you
don't spend that much because you are staying in a resort,
you know what I'm saying, But with a couple extra
extra hundred dollars, you got the ticket and then once
you're there, you're paying like five dollars to nothing, you
know what I mean, Like you're eating for ten dollars
(30:20):
a day. You're staying and spend beautiful places for five
dollars a day. So that's why you see a lot
of people, like a lot of Nomadin and a lot
of people that can work remote move to those parts
of the world just because they're paying twenty dollars a
month to live and they have Wi Fi, they have
you know, food that they can you know, eat for
a dollar a day and stuff like that. I could
never do it because I definitely, Like I love, I'm
(30:41):
definitely a city guy that I have to be, and
they have cities obviously, but it's just like, you know,
I'm definitely like a East Coast New England, Massachusetts, Boston
sale kind of guy.
Speaker 4 (30:50):
Like you know, but if I haven't hit like the
lotto or something, i'd have my spot.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
I'm still gonna still be, but I'm gonna.
Speaker 4 (30:56):
Have a crave around here just because it's home.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
Yeah, always, And I get that question a lot, like
why have you Why have you never like moved the relocated,
And it's just like I just feel comfortable. Hey, I've
been to a lot of states in the US, bro
and like, and it's just Massachusetts is really comfortable in
so many different aspects, whether it's the food, Like like
in New York, I could never take the train everywhere
every day. I just they're used to it. But like
(31:20):
I love being able to take my car and go
to those supermarket, comeback and like leave when I want
and I have to wait around.
Speaker 2 (31:26):
That's just the way that we were just raised up here,
I guess. But it's like everything is not that far.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
You can get to a lot of places, you can
go to the country you know, you can go to
the countryside, you can get to New York easily, you
know what I mean. But everything is just good here
in Massachusetts. And and that's why, that's what I've learned
over the past couple of years to appreciate. That's why
I'm thinking of it. Move.
Speaker 4 (31:46):
You got any hangover style style stories in the Philippines?
Speaker 3 (31:50):
So nah, I mean nah. But the one thing, because
you were talking earlier about like the helicopter and stuff
like that, anytime that I go to age, I just
get hurt.
Speaker 2 (32:04):
It just it just never fails. It was always got hurt.
Speaker 3 (32:08):
Uh, I won't.
Speaker 4 (32:10):
A friend of mine went to Thailand food poison, Like.
Speaker 3 (32:14):
Yeah, no, you gotta be careful to you gotta be
I always whenever I travel, it doesn't matter where I go.
I've always like got any kind of medicine on that
because you just never know where you're gonna need all
who's gonna need it.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
But I'm really careful. I'm like, listen, as long as
I got white rice, white rice with the white rice.
But no, I was freaking.
Speaker 3 (32:31):
And it's one of the fears that I have to
face is I was freaking paragliding or paras sailing whatever
it was, and this was like I thought I was
gonna die. Bro I literally thought I was gonna die. So,
I mean, there was no way that I could have died,
but I just thought that I was gonna die.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
I mean, so you started still with pair sailing right there.
I thought about twelve ways to die from that, so,
I mean I could think of some ways to die off.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
I guess there was, but so it was you know,
obviously everything is mad, dirt cheap over there, and and
you know we're just drinking, you know, day drinking and
stuff like that, and we're going on these excursions whatever.
But we get on this excursion and they take us
to this platform where the boat takes off, and you're
connected to the to the to the to the parachute,
(33:13):
I guess. And you know, once the boat takes off,
you know, you go and you're in the air or whatever.
They take you around and then they drop you back off.
So I'm getting ready, right, and then it's my turn
to go up and the guy tells me to run,
but he tells me to run in his language. So
when he told me to run, the ass, I'm like,
(33:33):
what did you say? The boat had already left, So
that's in that time that I was asking him what
he said, I was supposed to be right, So it
pulled me on like a rug like this. So it
was like a rug, so imagine like a tarmaga was
on a rug in like a hundred degree weather. It
was like my knees bro. It was like down down
to the bone, not the bone, but it was like
(33:54):
down to like the skin bro right. So then so
then but now but now I'm being drags so and
I'm not hard as racist. So the adrenaline is pumping
and then boom, I fall into the water. That's when
I was like, oh ship, well yeah, like that was
the adrenaline rush. I was like, I'm in the water,
I'm dead. And then all of a sudden, like it
(34:14):
felt like three minutes, but I know it was like seconds.
I shot right up right into the to the air
bro and it was like yo, I was like, and
I was just laughing because the adrenaline rush was so
crazy almost and then and then I was like bleeding everywhere.
And then I was like, oh, I shark could have
(34:35):
just had me right then and there, because you know,
we're in the South Pacific, so who knows about that,
but uh so, because so because of that, I was like,
you know, after that, I'm like I got to redeem myself.
So anytime that I get the opportunity to to just
just just do it, like I just you know, I
just kind of go for it because I missed out
on a lot of opportunities, and to me, this is
just some things.
Speaker 4 (34:54):
That like you should do in your twenties.
Speaker 6 (34:58):
Unfortunately I missed my time that too. I make my
time the parading any of the stuff like that. Like
like my girl now she wants to do skirteons. I'm like,
you know, I many skirtses can I do with movie?
Speaker 3 (35:13):
You know what I'm saying, That's a good one.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
I'm not a big guy because like it's cool no
looking all the month you're driving through Cowship, it's going
all over your stuff. You don't think about that. You're
like driving, you know, like you're driving through ship the
entire time, entire time. So yeah, I'm not a big.
Speaker 4 (35:32):
Horse riding. I'm not riding no horses.
Speaker 3 (35:34):
Not see those are all those are all like like
I like doing those especially bro, Like I don't do
it all the time in any place that I go to,
but like I'll do it when I when I because
I'll do a lot of like reacharch and stuff like that.
But if I find like if it's a family company,
I'll do it then like to like support the family.
You know what I'm saying, you know, in somewhere or
some form, you know what I'm saying. But like the
(35:56):
A TVs and all that, I'll be like, you know,
I just tell you at the beach and I have
a couple of drinks and you know whatever at the pool.
But I'm still I'm still like I'm still gonna bunge
you jumping and skoy dive and all that, bro, the.
Speaker 1 (36:10):
Only way because unfortunately, you know, I've gotten older, but
Fomo is still here.
Speaker 4 (36:15):
So it's like seven of my friends are like, Yo,
we're going Scottland.
Speaker 1 (36:18):
You know what I like, if your friends all jump
off a bridge, are you gonna jump off the bridge?
Speaker 4 (36:22):
I'm like, what else? Am I going to sit here
like an idiot?
Speaker 3 (36:25):
But you know it's crazy though, is that you think
like that right now? But like, like I have met
some people that like later in life when they turned fifty, bro,
that's when they're like, you know what I want to
go I want to go sky dive. So you know,
maybe your time is coming, you know what I'm saying,
Maybe once your kid's a little bit older and stuff
like that, you'll be like you know what, Damn, now
you really have you be like now you know what
I'm going to go. If you guys come with me, whatever,
(36:46):
but I'm going to do it. So maybe maybe your
time will come.
Speaker 4 (36:50):
Maybe maybe South Spacific yeah, Philippines.
Speaker 3 (36:56):
Yeah, Philippines was dope. Cambodia was super dope. Uh you know, uh,
Like for example, China, not really South Pacific, but obviously
like the China area I went when I was like
still kind of like young in my travel ages. So
I feel like that's a place that I have to
go back to a lot, a lot of history and
(37:16):
there's a lot to see over there too. But I
went to South Korea, which is like, you know, exactly
what you'd expect steth creative me. But Japan is really
where I want to get to bro. I haven't gone
to Japan because I don't want to half asset. I
want to do it like right.
Speaker 4 (37:31):
People say it's like it's a two week thing.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
It's like you, yeah, it is.
Speaker 2 (37:34):
It is and it's expensive.
Speaker 3 (37:35):
You know what I'm saying, Like it's expensive, it's it's
one of those trips that like for most people like
us in the middle class, like it's a trip that
if you take that trip, it's it's the only trip
you're going to take in the year.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
You know what I'm saying. Because it's a big and
expensive trip.
Speaker 3 (37:49):
But that's why I want to do it, because like
I don't know like when I when I'll be able
to go back and all that.
Speaker 2 (37:54):
So that's a place that's you got.
Speaker 4 (37:58):
I'm sure your mom's like you why on the plane
every other way?
Speaker 3 (38:01):
Not anymore?
Speaker 4 (38:02):
But I mean.
Speaker 3 (38:05):
Doing it.
Speaker 4 (38:08):
But my mom always like she's like, why do you
have to vacation so much? Can I tell her?
Speaker 1 (38:12):
Because there's going to be a time where I can't
do it anymore, you know what I mean, where I
can't when I have a bunch of kids where I
have to ask you, my mom to baby sit while
I go to She's like, where You're going to Atlanta
for what?
Speaker 3 (38:23):
That's not that's not culture. But how many times a
year do they go to d R? How many times
have they gone to d R or in our lifetime,
you know what I'm saying, Like.
Speaker 1 (38:30):
Convincing my parents to go to another tropical island that's
not the r it's like.
Speaker 3 (38:36):
And believe it or not, the ard is expensive now
to dr now is not the same as it was
even ten years ago. Bro, I don't know, so, so
that's what that's That's one of the reasons why I
started kind of doing what I do, and as far
as like the travel thing goes, because I really wanted
to inspire people to to There's some people that knew
that had never been to or never been to and
(38:57):
stuff like that, that have only been to the Mingo
because that's where their family was from and they're going
back and forth. Like there's so many other places that
you can go to, Like I recommend everybody goes to
Mexico at least once in their life, at least once, because.
Speaker 2 (39:10):
Mexico is still cheap till this day.
Speaker 4 (39:12):
It's cheap to get to.
Speaker 3 (39:14):
And you're you're gonna have a great time, you know
what I'm saying. But we just, you know, our our
parents and our culture. I think, you know, I think
we were kind of the ones to kind of change
it a little bit. But our culture was always like
doing it local, like you're not supposed to be traveling
like you know what I'm saying, like.
Speaker 1 (39:28):
My right like like like watching you know, be on
a boat and a river with binoculars watching hippos and
ship and her dad would be having a heart attack, you.
Speaker 3 (39:39):
Know what I'm saying. But you know, times change, and
I'm sure obviously, like when your son gets older, he's
probably gonna want to travel just like you did, just
like we did. You know what I'm saying. So it
was your first trip, not the R my first trip,
not the R out of the country or here.
Speaker 4 (39:54):
Let's you say your first unsupervised.
Speaker 3 (39:57):
Shoots unsupervised cruise. Yeah, cruise, And I think that that's
why I freaking fell in love with it, because I
mean cruises are dope anyways, Like cruise are you know,
everybody should go on the cruise like that is.
Speaker 1 (40:12):
But unfortunately again and you know what, not, Yeah, I'm
going to my girl wants to go to cruise.
Speaker 4 (40:19):
I have to have a balcony.
Speaker 1 (40:20):
I have to have there, and it's like five in checklists,
you know, every checklist is the nextra like five hundred dollars.
Speaker 3 (40:26):
But you know what cruise lines bro That's some of
the things that a lot of people don't know. Cruise
lines give you the options to pay as you go
in the center where like not all cruise lines and
not every type of room, but they do have like
I know Royal does that. I'm going on the cruise
in November that you know, you put it down, payment down,
and then you have to have it paid let's say
(40:46):
sixty ninety days before.
Speaker 4 (40:48):
Like like what people are uh destination with?
Speaker 1 (40:51):
Yes, you give me a website, I'll go anywhere I
can make payes. I'm good to make a PA.
Speaker 4 (40:59):
It's the up front trouble doing it, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 3 (41:01):
And and that's and that's one of the things about
like at least the cruise is so I was able
to do that way I saw, I'm like, wait, I'm
going to four countries and in eight days and everything
is included. Let's do it. So yeah, I went on
a cruise that was like an eight day cruise, and
so I had a chance to go. I'd been to
Florida many times because I had family there, but it
was like my first time, like I don't want to
(41:23):
say unsupervised, because I was already like eighteen nineteen, so
I was, but I was still unsupervised, you know what
I'm saying. I was just out there, Like I rented
a car, got charged mad money because I was on
the on the twenty five. But what the hell that
I know.
Speaker 4 (41:35):
I'm like, you know what I'm saying, they'll rent me
a car.
Speaker 3 (41:37):
So I read, you know what I.
Speaker 4 (41:39):
Mean, eighteen you don't ask many questions.
Speaker 3 (41:41):
You know what I mean? And so but yeah, so
after that, I was like damn. I was like, so
I can. So it was so I was still living
at home, so I was like, damn, I can do
Like I can actually do this shit and like, yeah,
you know, my my parents might give me a little
bit grief. But I did it at once, like I
could do it again. And so then once that happened,
that's when I started working in this building. So for
(42:03):
the company that I was working here, they allowed me
to travel a lot, and so obviously I was on
my own doing that. So that's kind of like how
I became like I don't want to say a pro
but that's how I became comfortable just getting out there
and like not worrying about like learning how to look
for cheap flights you know, looking for like need over
and I just like cheap hotel, not cheap hotels like
(42:26):
as in cheap, but like affordable hotels and stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (42:29):
But that cruise was really what did it for me.
Speaker 1 (42:31):
Man.
Speaker 3 (42:31):
After that cruise, I was like, yo, I'm out, and
I haven't really stopped since, you know, you get on
the cruise. But again, I feel like, Bro, if there's
the time you're gonna do it, it's gonna be now.
Because you're going have multiple kids, it's gonna be more expensive.
Speaker 4 (42:47):
Bro.
Speaker 3 (42:48):
No, no, no, honestly, bro, Like you go to a
couple of different countries, you wake up, you can get
off the boat if you want. You don't have to.
There's the gym, there's the pools, there's the shows, like
everything you need and there's actually there's more. There's more
features in cruise lines than than resorts that are all inclusive,
because resorts like they only offer so much, like you know,
(43:10):
you're at sea, and I mean.
Speaker 2 (43:11):
They offer everything, like everything, everything.
Speaker 3 (43:13):
So that's something I would highly recommend because you'll.
Speaker 2 (43:17):
See so many older people take inclusive because they're just chilling.
Speaker 1 (43:21):
Yeah. I tend to do all inclusive just because if
you know, me and my family and our family we
are we tend to be.
Speaker 4 (43:31):
Drink a little bit. You tend to drink a little
you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (43:38):
So if we're you know, it gets a little pricey
if you're buying per bottle, you know, all inclusive, like
I would have to get a drink package for sure.
Speaker 3 (43:45):
No, that's that's definitely the way the way to go.
Because the thing is that, like to put in perspective
for anybody that was watching, like, if you don't get
the if you don't get the crew the drink package,
Let's say every drink is twelve dollars on board, right,
you're gonna have five drinks per se. Let's say five drinks, right.
(44:07):
I said that the single pest real quick. Every single
day you're gonna be spending that. But if you would
have gotten the drink package, you would have paid forty
dollars a day. But you're not gonna spend the seventy five,
the sixty of the seventy five. You're gonna definitely spend
one hundred and twenty because you're not gonna have If
all your families are, you're gonna you're gonna have five
drinks in that one spot that you're at five drinks
at the next spot thirty minutes, you know what I'm saying,
(44:28):
and then at the next spot and then a lot
of the drinks are beer or this. That's so the
drink package is one hundred percent worth it. Some cruises
are actually cheaper than all inclusive resorts. It's just that
because we live in New England, we have to travel
to where the cruises are, so that kind of like,
you know, that's where the difference comes in. But it's
worth it. But like the leg you see, you see,
(44:51):
you see, I study.
Speaker 1 (44:52):
I'm gonna go back to all the podcasts when you
shot for if I see anybody crossing the legacy, why age, Yeah,
I guarantee you ye over not even thirty. You might
be over thirty five, you cross your leg you over
thirty five. That's a whole different that's a whole different level.
All right, But traveling game, Let's go to Europe.
Speaker 3 (45:09):
Europe.
Speaker 4 (45:12):
I've always.
Speaker 1 (45:15):
Always gonna do Italy. But in my back of my head,
I was like, that's the honeymoon spot. So I was
waiting for that situation to come up. Have you been
to Italy before?
Speaker 3 (45:22):
Yeah? Man, so Italy so I love Italy, Bro. Italy
is a spot that is like again one of those
spots that like we kind of grew up learning about
I guess you know what I'm saying. So like to
see it well, like you know, like the Roman Empire
and you also like the coliseum and all that.
Speaker 4 (45:39):
So that's definitely to see that in person.
Speaker 1 (45:42):
Bro.
Speaker 2 (45:42):
It's like, I'll go back to Rome anytime.
Speaker 3 (45:45):
Venice is more of like the destination spot where it's
more like honeymoon ish and stuff like that. But I've
had people like I've gotten groups together of people that
you know, just are going as a group or going
as a group of friend and then there's Italy is
definitely like one of the best places to visit in
(46:07):
in Europe if you want to get that like European experience,
like London, you know whatever.
Speaker 4 (46:14):
I've never had a big it looks right now outside
right now, it looks like London.
Speaker 3 (46:19):
Yeah exactly, you know. I mean it's nice to go,
you know, it's you know whatever, Like the food is
nothing to you know, write home about or anything like that.
But Italy, like the food, the people, the fact that
we can understand them helps out a lot.
Speaker 4 (46:34):
So my girlfriend's Italian, and I thought I knew Italians.
I had no, Bro, there's about one hundred and seventy
five different.
Speaker 2 (46:44):
And we also cooked pasta weight wrong and do everything.
Speaker 1 (46:48):
I've known that there's no one like Yo. So when
I met and I was just like, Yo, I'm explaining
our cars. Yo, I'm gonna get some some you know,
mongoogle salam music. If you say salam to an Italian person,
what then, like you're.
Speaker 4 (47:02):
Putting coke cuts on this ship, you know what I mean?
So I had to like O and I was big.
Speaker 1 (47:09):
I think I was Italian in a different life because
I'm a big Italian. I love Italian food. Unfortunately, you know, I.
Speaker 4 (47:15):
Gained a little, a little, you know what I mean?
I got it Off's you lost weight? I'm like, yeah,
I lost all the weight I got off when I
met you. Now I'm back to normal. But the food
must have.
Speaker 3 (47:28):
Been Yeah, no, bro, it's it's an incredible experience. So
I've been to Italy a few times. I've because I
like it so much. I've gotten the chance to do
like an overnight trip of twenty four hours in Italy,
Like you can actually go to Rome and go see
everything in twenty four hours, Like if if you didn't
have time, like you could actually do that in twenty
four hours. And the flights to.
Speaker 4 (47:48):
Europe, especially once you once you're in Europe so cheap.
Speaker 3 (47:52):
Around You can get from like Paris to Rome for
like fifteen dollars and that's and that's another really great
thing to do, is like if you have two weeks
go to Europe, to go to Europe, you can bounce
around and that's a really great place to learn a
lot of cultures. A lot of the places may be
a little bit boring, but it's always cool, like you
know some some Now that I've gotten older, I've learned
to appreciate those boring countries a little bit more because
(48:15):
I'm like, damn, I'm like, let me, I don't need
to go party every single night.
Speaker 1 (48:18):
I do because because I was big fut out to
my boy Fritz. We had a moving for dinner.
Speaker 3 (48:24):
This week, Fritz.
Speaker 4 (48:27):
And I have we have a wedding and a Ruba
to go to.
Speaker 2 (48:30):
Bro You're gonna have a little blast.
Speaker 4 (48:32):
Yes, that's what we think. He's been Ruba's because it's
not because of who we went with or Ruba.
Speaker 3 (48:41):
My mom just came back from Ruba. Aruba is one
a place that is one hundred percent worth doing all
inclusive on because unless you got money like that. You know,
I'm saying, if you guys you got money like that,
then by all means, but those I don't those islands
like that, like there's been I went to Kurasau, which
(49:03):
is one of like the ABC islands, right you know,
right in that same area. Yeah, so there's Ruba, barn
and Kasau. So all those together, Yeah, that's why we
have people all like him man right up right on
top of Columbe in Benezuela.
Speaker 2 (49:16):
So they're very Spanish.
Speaker 3 (49:17):
But there's still I believe, like European or.
Speaker 4 (49:22):
Settlements and stuff.
Speaker 3 (49:22):
I think the European there's still I think the European
or from the UK, one of those two. But you know,
everything is mad expensive, so you guys aren't really gonna
feel it because you're gonna be at a resort, I'm assuming, right,
but I know you guys are gonna go outside and
like a plate of food is gonna actually maybe not
now because of how high everything is here. Now I
haven't been in a long time, but in a general thing,
(49:43):
like you'd think that you're going to like pay island
prices and.
Speaker 2 (49:47):
You're not, but it's gonna be worth it. You're gonna
be like damn.
Speaker 3 (49:50):
And Fritz Man, you know, he probably just didn't have
a good time with the people he went with last time,
because you know, Aruba is dope, dope, dope good weather
the entire time. Like I don't think it ever rained
there because it's you know, because it's it's like a
so you have beach and then like on the like
across the street, it's a desert. So that's how that's
how the weather is there. So there's always like a
like a constant breeze. Damn, you guys are gonna have
(50:13):
a great time, bro an amazing time out there.
Speaker 2 (50:18):
Yeah, you know it's it's funny.
Speaker 4 (50:21):
Isn't real.
Speaker 1 (50:22):
That's how to tell my mom every time you said
on his money, like the movie blow money, isn't real.
Speaker 3 (50:27):
Now, you know, if you're gonna do it, do it right. Yeah,
you're gonna do it, do it right, and and you'd
be surprised. You You're gonna probably be like damn because
you know now now that world like we go out,
we go to Boston, so we know, like we go
to New York. New York is expensive as hell. Like
you can go to New York or Miami and easily
drop a thousand dollars easily in one like one evening.
Speaker 4 (50:46):
Let me tell you a little story about culture shock.
My dad did. But we went out for the World
Baseball Class. We went out.
Speaker 1 (50:51):
We stopped at a bar, and we're just getting coming
peak out of that and drinks. And I think this
might have been the first because my dad's not a
drink who have a bear, you know what I mean, liquor.
Speaker 4 (51:01):
Now, he's not gonna re touch the liquor. But obviously,
you know, we're different. He grew up and a little
different than So.
Speaker 1 (51:06):
We're Avenue ordering a couple of drinks and he's like,
you know, I got the you know, trying to be
the dad I got the bill usually Dominica bed I
could be forty five. My dad's gonna pick up the
checking for vacation. That's how I'm sure I'll do the
same thing for my son. Of course, when that man
saw that bill for for I think it was like
(51:26):
a teaky bar in Miami. You just said, we all
looked at him like we got it, we got it,
like he was just like what and then the same
thing happened because my dad invited his friends are the
ones from Connecticut once from like whatever.
Speaker 4 (51:39):
And he had gotten it. Dominican men are very proud,
you know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (51:42):
No, I got it.
Speaker 4 (51:43):
I got it.
Speaker 1 (51:43):
God.
Speaker 4 (51:44):
I was like, bro, We're like, come on, what kind
of Texas this year?
Speaker 3 (51:46):
And he saw.
Speaker 4 (51:49):
We're like take that one too.
Speaker 2 (51:52):
But you guys are gonna have a blast.
Speaker 3 (51:54):
Bro. You guys are definitely gonna have a blast. But definitely,
like if there's a place that you want to like
take get a girl too, that's different, bro, Like I
would definitely take her to and go try to meet
her family over there, bro, because you if she has family.
I'm not sure if she does, but like if you do,
like you'll have even that much of a better time
because you'll be able to like get into like you know,
(52:14):
you got.
Speaker 4 (52:15):
Me watching Sopranos. Do you feel about Sos.
Speaker 2 (52:17):
The Sopranos, Bro? Honestly I love that show man. I
wish you could come back, you know, but I think
it ended.
Speaker 4 (52:24):
Yeah, I don't know a little boring.
Speaker 1 (52:27):
No what I'm saying that, Like you're just arguing, bro,
just some therapy. The grandmother is just like annoying or something, just.
Speaker 4 (52:36):
Like, yo, what is this?
Speaker 3 (52:37):
Like? I think, you know, I think I've learned to
appreciate it more. You know, so I watched it like
originally and then I've rewatched it a lot of love.
But I think I've learned to appreciate it more now
because of some of the actors that are in there
that I've.
Speaker 2 (52:51):
Seen some of their more recent work.
Speaker 4 (52:53):
That makes sense.
Speaker 3 (52:53):
So what's the what's the show called the one with
the damn bro the one with the the motorcycle Gang
or some bro like so the mom on that show?
You know, Like, I'm like, damn. So now I go
back and I watch it, I'm like, oh shooting, I
feel like I understand the character more. But no, there
was a couple of episodes that were mad boring, bro.
Speaker 4 (53:14):
But whatever, I'm sitting there, you know what I mean, Like,
you know, I do it for you, baby, you know.
Speaker 3 (53:20):
What I mean. I watch drink some wine there and
then no, I know, like the funny thing is was
weird about my girl?
Speaker 4 (53:25):
Like she's Italian sopranos. I think I never watched Goldfathers.
Speaker 2 (53:29):
Oh, come on, I met a dad I'm like, yo,
you gotta, you gotta, you gotta do it for you.
Speaker 4 (53:36):
Yeah, we're always planning. I was like, you know, you
know Godfather too, because we watch Godfather to problem. Godfar
is a three and a half hour movie, so long,
you know what I mean. It's to be a Sunday,
rainy afternoon. You gotta start at like noon, yeah, because
I'm like, yo, like at seven o'clock golfar, we're not.
Speaker 1 (53:53):
I don't make I don't do regular movies, like I
don't know how following eight o'clock eight o'clock deadline. If
I if you want to watch a movie with me,
it has to be before eight o'clock starting before.
Speaker 2 (54:05):
It'll be trying to like eat like you know, kind
of like wait to have dinner, like when the movie.
Speaker 4 (54:09):
I'm a big Marvel guy, right, you go to all
the Marvel movies. I'm the guy.
Speaker 1 (54:12):
I'm the guy like me and my girl argue about
this a little bit because I have to see it
opening night. Yeah, because I'm a big YouTube guy.
Speaker 3 (54:20):
And you like to be able to.
Speaker 4 (54:21):
I don't want to be spoiled.
Speaker 1 (54:22):
I don't want to be before I got people who
I know whose name will be my name is just
like those like I don't understand, like no one cares
about your opinions.
Speaker 4 (54:32):
Bro, just keep give us, give us a weekend.
Speaker 3 (54:34):
I'm gonna send you a link that'll I'm gonna send
you a link that will sorry to cut you off,
but I'll send you a link that will give you
the advanced tickets for the screenings for some movies.
Speaker 4 (54:45):
So say less, say less.
Speaker 1 (54:47):
But when I go to Marvel movies, it's usually the
Thursday night you use, that's the opening night, and it
will be that you know, nine o'clock, that's a double
red bullet in the cart gat from.
Speaker 4 (55:00):
You gotta be a double red bull.
Speaker 3 (55:02):
You gotta be prepared, like there's no way, Like I can't.
Speaker 1 (55:05):
Go to a movie theater like after eight o'clock and
not like it just be like like this because there's
no way. And unfortunately I've paid for some movies that
I fell asleep through.
Speaker 3 (55:15):
No, Bro, I think I went through a stage where
I was going to like I was going through. I
was going through a stage where like I was falling
asleep at the movies, like I just I would go
and I would fall asleep. And so I was like
testing and I'm like, let me go, and like I
would fall asleep. But it's funny that you're bringing up
that concept now about like going to watch movies and
stuff like that, because I was listening to like the
(55:38):
Breakfast Club this morning and they were talking about or
some show this morning, and they were talking about.
Speaker 2 (55:45):
Like how the movie theater culture has changed, and like if.
Speaker 3 (55:47):
You weren't a fan of Marvel, you probably wouldn't be
going to see these movies as often. You would probably
just wait to see them at the house, you know
what I'm saying. And so like it's crazy, how like
I think of the last non superhero that you want
to go see crazy, But maybe something with your son,
you know, maybe like when he was you know. Yeah,
And I feel like obviously like it was after COVID too,
(56:07):
that that kind of like happened to that kind of
like progressed it even faster, you know. But now I
don't followsleeph and I go to the movies, but that's
because I don't wait until nine o'clock.
Speaker 4 (56:18):
To go, only time o'clock.
Speaker 1 (56:21):
Or yeah, most of them, like most of them, I'll
just wait till his streaming. If it's like it has
to be something like like a movie like Christopher Nolan
movie when you know it's just gonna be like big effects,
like I need to watch it on the big scene,
like Avatar, like you can't watch you can't wait.
Speaker 3 (56:38):
To the Quiet the Quiet movie? How was it called?
Like I love horror movies. Those all go and watch
like Marvels for you, like the horror movies, bro, like
all of them.
Speaker 4 (56:48):
Like I love him. Listen. There's not a lot of
hard nos in my life.
Speaker 3 (56:53):
That's one of the horror movies that a hard no.
Speaker 1 (56:55):
Like. It's one of those like you know, you meet
a girl and you're like, all right, these are my
like all right, I'm not gonna let you know right now.
Horror movies if you if you're into them, that's that's
a rap.
Speaker 4 (57:06):
I can't.
Speaker 1 (57:07):
I just I don't und I don't understand how being
scared could be something entertaining in my brain. I was
like being started, Like I barely sleep my sleep time
just because I can do the I can do the
like the Killer Ship, I can do the the Jason's
and all.
Speaker 4 (57:23):
Yeah, it's like child possessed is that.
Speaker 3 (57:27):
I can't like the Ring.
Speaker 2 (57:28):
The Ring still to this day is one of my
favorite movies of all time.
Speaker 4 (57:31):
Bro, it's just a girl calming out of that terrible ring.
Speaker 3 (57:34):
I couldn't even sleep.
Speaker 4 (57:35):
I don't even want to change.
Speaker 1 (57:39):
I get mad when I'm a movie theater they show
a horror previews, like, okay, being to watch Captain America?
Speaker 4 (57:44):
Why the hell is the Ring? Like? We cover most
of the most of the world.
Speaker 1 (57:51):
Anything any of the place in the world where we
haven't touched that you maybe want to spotlight?
Speaker 3 (57:57):
Yeah, you know what right here? The US? Bro?
Speaker 2 (58:00):
Oh yeah, we didn't even hear it the US. I
feel like a lot of people.
Speaker 3 (58:06):
Take for granted, not take for granted, but just don't
look at We don't look at this as a place
to vacation too, unless you're going to Florida.
Speaker 4 (58:13):
And it's hard for me to vacation somewhere cold that too.
Speaker 3 (58:17):
But you know, I feel like if people are like,
you know, if I'm going to spend the money because
it's actually cheaper to fly out of the country than
it is to fly here. You know what I'm saying,
Even if you're going to New York, Like sometimes, if
you're going to New York, like I said earlier, you'll
spend mad money, which where you can spend that exact
same money and be all inclusive in Mexico for three days,
you know what I'm saying. So, but one of the
(58:39):
things I've so one of my goals is to visit
all the US states we got down. I have forty
down so far, or like maybe forty one. I like
forty or forty one or something like that. But like
I still have Alaska to go to. I still have
a lot of what I'm missing really is like that middle.
Speaker 4 (58:57):
And the ones you don't want to go to. The
one yeah, like a home South Dakota and North Dakota.
Speaker 2 (59:03):
Carolina is one that I really want to go check out.
Speaker 3 (59:05):
That's but yeah, yeah, but like yeah, like that middle
area of the country I want to go to is
and I want to go because I want to just
like like I know I'm not gonna. I can't say
that I'm not gonna. I know that I'm not gonna.
I can't say I'm not gonna like it because I'm
not like a big hiker, like I'll go hiking and
stuff like that like if I have to, or or
some places like you know, like there's some places that
(59:26):
like I'll go to that hiking is part of it.
Like I love New Hampshire, so like hiking is part
of the New Hampshire experience. So even though I'm going
camping or I'm going to stay at like a you know,
some kind of airbnb, like I always kind of try
to do something in the nature to kind of you know,
tie it all in. But yeah, so like I guess
now because I I when I was growing up, I
(59:46):
guess over the past like fifteen years, like I wanted
to go to as many countries as I could, but
I noticed that I wasn't really like taking advantage of
the place that I was going to, like I can't
like some place that I'm like, damn, I'm like what
the hell did I do there? So it was like
a rush because I was there for two days, like
check it off the check it off the list. Like
(01:00:06):
for like for example, like I said, like when I
went to China, like I didn't really appreciate the culture,
and I was expecting Chinese food, like I was expecting
Chinese food from like Fantasy Island, you know what I'm saying.
So I ordered, like I ordered that chicken fried rice
and it was not chicken. It was not chicken fried rice,
you know what I'm saying, or like shrimp fried rice.
It was not that so like so I want to
(01:00:26):
I want to definitely slow down on like the like
the like not bouncing around as much. Like I want
to like take five days and and and freaking you
know Italy to really enjoy it. Some countries you really
don't need that much time. That's why some people get
like deterred from traveling because they'll go to a place
(01:00:48):
for ten days that you're only like people go to
London for a week.
Speaker 2 (01:00:51):
In London, you're really they're only supposed to be there
for like two days.
Speaker 3 (01:00:54):
Because what the hell you're gonna do for tech days?
Speaker 4 (01:00:56):
Buckingham Palace, the Bridge, the.
Speaker 3 (01:01:00):
Faris Wheel, you know what I'm saying, Like so like
you know, but yeah, so I saw. What I'm doing
here in the US is I want to get people
to take road trips to to like Gordon and Igara Falls,
like you know how many people that live here. I've
never gone to even New York City, you know what
I'm saying. So, like I want people to get out
there and to travel. So I want to hit all
the states because I just want to see all of
(01:01:21):
them and I and I want to I want to
definitely like be one sure that mass Chusets is by
far the best day in the country.
Speaker 2 (01:01:29):
You know what I'm saying, like one hundred right now.
Speaker 3 (01:01:32):
Still out of all the places I've been to, Bro,
I just there's there's there's nobody that does it like Massachusets.
Speaker 2 (01:01:37):
Yeah, we don't have like the best beaches or but
like I appreciate.
Speaker 4 (01:01:40):
A beach man, A lot of places don't have beach.
Speaker 3 (01:01:41):
Right Like I appreciate I appreciate being next to the ocean.
I appreciate the fact that we have the four seasons.
I appreciate the fact that, you know, there's there's that
sense of like you know, the unity like Latinos, white people,
black people. There's that here that you know cause I've
been Yeah, Bro, I've been to some places that I'm like,
holy shit, like I am not welcome man.
Speaker 1 (01:02:00):
New Hampshire. We have a rule, this is New Hampshire.
If unless I have to get out the car, I
don't get out the car. I mean a red bull
and in some cool range and in the car.
Speaker 2 (01:02:15):
You'd be surprised, Bro, You'd be surprised.
Speaker 3 (01:02:17):
Like the part of the country that we live at
is is is mad diverse, bro, and so cool, and
we just we just think like that because it's so
different from where we're from, like Massachusetts, Salem in particular, Bro,
is so different from anywhere else in the country. Bro,
Like we are just like there's it's just something about
the way that that the culture is here that is
just so different. And and like San Diego. I love
(01:02:40):
San Diego. San Diego's definitely dope. San Diego is dope,
but it's hot all the time, and I like it.
I like to be a little big, you know, like
I like I like the snow, and I like to
you know, have my four seasons because I feel like
that to me is kind of like normal. Like in Florida.
I could never live in Florida because I cannot deal
with the heat three hundred and sixty five days a year,
(01:03:00):
you know what I'm saying. But so yeah, that's what
I'm doing right now. Is I really want to explore
more of the US, like you know, you have like
states like New Orleans and like like Texas. That's the state.
I highly recommend you check out.
Speaker 2 (01:03:13):
Chicago, Bro.
Speaker 3 (01:03:14):
Chicago's one of my favorite cities in the US.
Speaker 4 (01:03:16):
It almost went to Chicago for our patty.
Speaker 2 (01:03:18):
Chicago's dope.
Speaker 3 (01:03:19):
All you need is two days in Chicago and you'll
be back again next year front of another two days
and those tickets be mad chieved. Like if you if
you keep an eye out for Spirit Airlines Frontier, you
know we went, so we did.
Speaker 5 (01:03:30):
If you ever won a quick trip, look at me,
look at me. Get Yeah, a couple of plays. I
like to see a couple of plays. I tabble I
tabble me and my.
Speaker 1 (01:03:41):
Girl did a trip to d C. And that was
literally bro, it's a forty five minute flight. The flights
for like one hundred bucks.
Speaker 4 (01:03:49):
And I'm assuming you went to DC. Yeah the national mode.
You can knock everything down two days.
Speaker 3 (01:03:55):
Yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:03:55):
But the best thing about DC is that everything is free.
Speaker 4 (01:03:58):
Everything is free.
Speaker 2 (01:03:59):
Every thing is free. The only thing you have to
worry about, obviously, getting is a place to stay.
Speaker 3 (01:04:05):
I mean you got you know, depending if you're with kids,
you know obviously, like if you're with kids, you could
you could like go to the supermarket buy snacks and sandwiches,
because that's all you see people having snacks and sandwiches
and the thing if you want to go out to eat.
Obviously it's the nation's capital, so it's going to be
a little bit more expensive, but everything you can spend
two days doing everything free for free.
Speaker 2 (01:04:24):
That's another place that I like people. I had a
good time, and it's not a bad road trip.
Speaker 3 (01:04:29):
Like you know, once you get to New York, you'll
be in DC in like another like four hours, so
there's less somebody else.
Speaker 4 (01:04:36):
Take the flights.
Speaker 3 (01:04:38):
Take the flight, but you know people taking a flight
for some people, you know, either might be impossible or
they might be like or's ten of them. You know
what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (01:04:47):
Where like renting a car or renting a little eight
hours drive from bad like.
Speaker 3 (01:04:51):
Niagara Falls, Coniga Falls, but I will never drive. I
will drive there because you know, it's a good road
trip for people from New but I driving back from
Niagara Falls.
Speaker 2 (01:05:03):
I'll never do it again. I joke some Memphis they're
driving there. It's fine, it's coming back home. You have
to drive back to Yeah, oh hell no.
Speaker 4 (01:05:14):
It's one of those things like it's gotta be pretty
tough to get me to Roch like I did that.
It was fun.
Speaker 3 (01:05:21):
I mean, unless people unless it's a RV and people
are you know, Toyotaka RV is another really great, really
great investment, not an investment, a great trip to do
with the family, like you know, like just an RV
for the weekend, like even with your friends, like an
RV for the weekend to like I took an.
Speaker 2 (01:05:38):
RV for a Memorial Day week and a couple of
years ago to whether it Sbago, No.
Speaker 3 (01:05:43):
It was to Niagar. We took an RV to Niagara
and so and so we all took turns to drive there.
It took like eight to ten hours to get there.
But when we got there, we didn't have to get
a hotel because we were in the RV. We didn't
have to go to new restaurants because we bought the
food to cook in the RV. We have to pay
like maybe ten to fifteen dollars to park the RV
at the whatever campsite, and then you know, looking at
(01:06:04):
Niagara Falls was free.
Speaker 2 (01:06:05):
So that that's what I'm focusing.
Speaker 3 (01:06:07):
It's trying to get people to kind of explore a
little bit more of the US and all that because
it's dope. Bro US is dope, all right.
Speaker 4 (01:06:13):
A lot of you talk about exploring the US.
Speaker 1 (01:06:18):
We you know, live twenty minutes away from one of
the biggest cities in the in the world, in Boston,
and now let's meet Boston. Yeah, that's all. First, how
did you get the opportunity to do that? I'm sure
they saw your ig like all of us did. All right, Clearly,
this motherfucker knows what he's talking about. How did that
opportunity come about?
Speaker 3 (01:06:39):
So I guess in twenty twenty was really when I
started doing more stuff in Boston, because that was really
kind of like all we could do. So then I
somehow just started like following people, you know, even back then,
like you could say something to the phone, and it
was like I was like, oh, I wonder who else?
Speaker 2 (01:06:57):
Who else is a content creator in Boston?
Speaker 3 (01:06:59):
And like automatically, like all these content creators start popping
up in like the Boston area, and I'm like, damn,
I'm like I have mad videos because I always I've
always when Instagram came out, I had Instagram and like
I've always used it, I've always posted pictures, but there
wasn't like a really a reason for it. And then yeah,
and then I just started like going to all the
(01:07:20):
free stuff that there was to do in Boston. I'm like, damn,
I'm like, what can I do?
Speaker 4 (01:07:24):
That's free?
Speaker 3 (01:07:24):
That's outdoors right now in Boston. So I started doing
that and then like museums started like like, oh he's
doing that, you know whatever? Do you want to come
by once we open? And then once that happening, it
was Hey, the restaurants are opening back up. We're gonna
start doing our outdoor patio dining. Would you like to
come by? And I'm like, wait, I can get free
food out of this and get made.
Speaker 4 (01:07:44):
Let's do it. I'm like, a lad, you've been really
tell us last few years. Fuck, so it looks like
you have the best job in the world, my friend.
Speaker 3 (01:07:52):
So then you know, cause I feel like I it
took me a little bit to like kind of like
start kind of like so the thing. The thing is that, yes,
I love the traveling aspect of it, but I think
I feel love more with like the editing part of
everything and like the building of like the videos and
the voiceovers and all that.
Speaker 4 (01:08:08):
So I think, I really you're doing this all.
Speaker 3 (01:08:11):
I do everything on my own, all my editing, everything, everything,
everything is on my own, just because I'm I'm kind
of like a like I.
Speaker 4 (01:08:16):
Always feel like if if you have a vision for it,
like you know.
Speaker 3 (01:08:20):
Eventually I'm going to start delegating work, but for now,
like I needed to be like a certain kind of way.
So so yeah, so I just started kind of refining
my craft. And and because I loved putting the videos
together and like you know, the colorings and all that,
using like different programs and stuff like that, the quality
of the videos just got better.
Speaker 4 (01:08:38):
I think eight o six fans.
Speaker 3 (01:08:39):
No, I do not edit.
Speaker 1 (01:08:42):
The whole.
Speaker 4 (01:08:49):
I'm I'm what I called a on camera talent. That's
what we call it. Like that. I dabble.
Speaker 3 (01:08:57):
I dabble.
Speaker 4 (01:08:58):
I do do some some the uneducated MMA videos I do.
Speaker 1 (01:09:02):
I'd be sitting there see sometimes. But you know, I
think I think he would even prefer someone else set
behind there except.
Speaker 4 (01:09:08):
For me, you know what I mean. We all have
our strength, of course, but that's that stuff that you're
editing your.
Speaker 3 (01:09:12):
And so yeah, and so then that kind of led
to like other like bigger projects and stuff like that,
which kind of required me to have to kind of
learn like different etiquettes, whether that's you know, different ways
of filming and different perspectives and stuff like that. And yeah,
(01:09:34):
I just started picking up. And then I honestly I
was I was tagging them on a lot of my
stuff that I was doing. Like I was tagging like
visit Massachusetts and me Boston, which is me Boston, USA,
is like the tours and board for the city. And
they were like damn, like and I'm like, yo, stop
gusting me up, like come on, like and then I'm
like damn. I'm like, I'm like, nah, my stuff is
(01:09:55):
like not that bad. And I'm kind of like I'm
one of the only like Spanish like dark skinned, black
kind of dudes that are kind of like doing it
in the area, you know what I'm saying, at least
when I when I first started, you know, now there's
like a lot more people.
Speaker 4 (01:10:06):
So I kind of like that helped me out definitely.
Speaker 1 (01:10:09):
Like you got in front of the yeah, yea, yeah
you got in before. Because now like everybody's going, like
even we were starting to do you know, think shout
out your co ho is gonna be visiting Chinese food restaurants.
Speaker 3 (01:10:22):
Stuff I have to connecting to have to connecting them
there we go, Yeah, absolutely dope.
Speaker 1 (01:10:28):
Yeah, so we like I've seen a lot more and
but if I think back like you were definitely the
first one that I see, and in.
Speaker 3 (01:10:34):
The beginning my mom obviously, because at first I was like, oh,
I wanted to be on radio right when we got
out of high school. Wanted to be on radio. That
was really cool with some of the people at gym
and at that time, and I had done like a
bunch of like the street, like the street they used
to do, like the Streets stuff all that, so I
used to be really involved. So I really wanted to
go there. But then I was doing ROTC in school
(01:10:54):
and in school, and then I didn't know what the hell.
And then I got the job selling pen supplies. I
don't know what the hell I wanted to do. We
are and and yeah, and so then my friends like
used to be like, yo, Kevin, why do you take
so many pictures? And why are you taking pictures of food?
And now my friends are like, yo, keV, you need
this angle or let's do this angle because they know
that it's I've created a little bit of like a
(01:11:16):
like a business out of it. Yeah no, and they
just they were like keV, like I was a low
key kind of like, damn, I wonder if they're gonna
ask me because I know that like the type of
content that I do, there's a ton of foodies in Boston,
Like there's a ton of foodies in Boston, like like
you know, like there's a ton of foodies in Boston,
but there's very few people that like go and visit
(01:11:36):
like museums and stuff like that, which are things that
people want to actually do, like people that like it was.
Speaker 1 (01:11:43):
Crazy because like I'm it's my age saying, like I
get annoyed to my girls, like, Yo, can you look
up this hotel? I told her, Yo, can you look
up this hotel? In my head she's going to google it? Yeah,
but no, she goes on TikTok.
Speaker 4 (01:11:56):
She goes on and in my head, I was just like,
why would you like just go to the West.
Speaker 1 (01:12:00):
And now that's just me being old head and me
like you know, old heads don't like change. So now
that I've seen it, I was like, yo, Like when
we went to d C, yo, But before we even
got to d C, I felt like I was already
there because of contact because.
Speaker 4 (01:12:13):
I'm watching these people going to the museums. So people
are like, what you're doing, like it's well needed dope.
Speaker 2 (01:12:19):
And for me, you know, for me, I never like
I obviously I didn't do it for the money.
Speaker 4 (01:12:25):
You know.
Speaker 3 (01:12:25):
When I first started, BRO, I was doing it because
I liked it and I had Matt pictures I needed
to get rid of. That's one of the reasons why
I really started. I'm like, oh, I don't want to
delete them, so I might as well put them there
and then like the captions and all that whatever. But yeah,
like I just you know, I just kept going at it,
and then they reached out and I'm like, let's freaking
do it, and so I'm on. I'm on on Saturday mornings.
(01:12:50):
So every Saturday they have a new cast, right, so
there's twenty of us, So the twenty of us are
going to be we were kind of on for the year.
So what they've done is they've split the twenty of
us in all of the Saturdays in the year. So
the shows play every Saturday. So every Saturday there's a
new set of four that are showing, right, So we
(01:13:11):
have either four to six shows, depending on like how
many days and whatever. So I just the first one
that just came out was much first. So my next one,
I believe is like somewhere in May and and for me,
for me, bro, it was like like I feel like
I earned it, and I feel like I earned it.
I feel like I worked.
Speaker 4 (01:13:31):
We see we see the work. Yeah about and you know.
Speaker 3 (01:13:36):
Obviously being a creator, and it's tough to like like
get demotivated because you see other people moving at a
faster pace than you or getting different opportunities and.
Speaker 2 (01:13:46):
And for a minute there, I was like damn, I'm
like is it worth it?
Speaker 3 (01:13:49):
But then like the money started to come and I'm like,
wait a second, I don't care since I wasn't doing,
since I wasn't doing for the money. This is extra
money that was coming in. So I'm like, you know,
I gotta I gotta keep it because I actually like it.
And now my people like understand what it is that
I'm doing. Then now I'm getting like mad opportunities that
like I like, I never thought I would get some
of the opportunities that I have, and it's only the beginning.
(01:14:11):
And so I feel like obviously working with the TV
show is just like it's been a huge opportunity. Bro,
Like I've met so many people. Plus now I get
to connect with other people that are like doing some
of the same stuff that I am in the city
that maybe I saw it like an event before, but
I didn't know them, and like now I do. So
it's cool just because I know that there's just a
stepping stone, like, bro, and I tell you I'm gonna
(01:14:32):
beat or have a traveling show on Netflix. I don't
know when, but that's that's something I want to do.
That's something I want to do just because I know
that it could It could be huge, you know what
I'm saying with a team of other people, Like it
could be huge and it's far fetched and it's not
even that big of a dream and it's not even
that big of a dream. I just want to like
that to like I want to do that, Like I
(01:14:53):
want to do that just because, like I feel like
it'll be a great you know, a great because I
don't I don't want to be famous, bro, Like I
don't want to be like you know, I don't want
to be like a celebrity by any mail.
Speaker 4 (01:15:04):
But if you can make a living doing what you
love and.
Speaker 3 (01:15:08):
Inspire people to do it, like I feel like if
I feel like damn, like, do you know how many people,
bro that I've gotten, Like even from Salem, do you
know how many people have gotten to do things, you
know what I'm saying that, I'm like, oh, snap, like
that's what's up, Like they want to go and check
this out like that's dope. Maybe it's because they have
somebody that like that, they know that they know. And
sometimes even it comes down to like the way that
you look like having somebody that's out there in these
(01:15:29):
spaces that looks like you, and you're like, damn, like
I could go to that restaurant too, Like if Kevin
was there, Kevin's loud As was at this restaurant, that
means I can go there too. It'll be like, Yo,
how was this stake or how do I make reservations?
And I'm like, that's for me, but that's what it's
all about. So for me, getting to do something on
Netflix is more of like the like, you know, like
that anything is possible type of thing, because like, you know,
I definitely don't want to be like a celebrity like
(01:15:50):
people chasing me down. I just want to be inspirational
with the people because I have already, and so I
would like a bigger platform to be able to inspire
more people.
Speaker 4 (01:15:58):
All right, almost close to the end.
Speaker 1 (01:16:01):
So let's do some fun questions for uh, maybe a
first time traveler or or someone who's maybe someone in
an audience who's young, who's beginning whatever, give us like
three travel hacks that you you think would be for
a beginning to travel.
Speaker 3 (01:16:22):
Definitely buy on like a Tuesday. If you're gonna buy
a flight, buy it on a Tuesday.
Speaker 4 (01:16:26):
That one.
Speaker 3 (01:16:26):
Definitely buy it on a Tuesday. And by hack, do
you mean like a way to save money or like
just like hack is like.
Speaker 4 (01:16:33):
Either save money or things to know, Like, hey, yo,
if you're in this country.
Speaker 1 (01:16:36):
You might want to put okay okay, or you might
want to hey, they don't really have ubers in this
contation maybe or so.
Speaker 3 (01:16:44):
I guess my number one thing that I would say
for anybody that's new out there, whether you're a new
traveler or your travel before is definitely do not wait
for anybody to go on that trip shit, because if
you do, you will never go on that trip. Bro
for real, even if you put a down payment, people
don't care to lose a down payment. Like if you
want to go somewhere, like just book that trip for sure.
Vacations like yeah, you end up being the only one
(01:17:06):
that goes you know, two hundred and twenty people I
want to go, and then there's two people that end
up going to go, and.
Speaker 4 (01:17:11):
Then when that that first payment is due, damn.
Speaker 3 (01:17:15):
I always always booked that trip definitely now because you know,
now for example, like I.
Speaker 4 (01:17:23):
Most of us, a lot of people have to mobile.
Speaker 3 (01:17:25):
Like I always used to say, like make sure you
have like a SIM card and make sure you have
a way of communication, like that's for sure, like something
that like you definitely want to make sure you always
you know, are good with. But I think I want
to get into more, like let's see more some like
like hack hack stuff.
Speaker 4 (01:17:42):
Like maybe something that we would have never thought of.
Speaker 2 (01:17:46):
Yeah, I mean I feel like social media now it's tough.
Speaker 3 (01:17:53):
It's tough because I was because I was gonna say, like,
you know, definitely like I've gone to places and I've
been with some shorties and like the like dress completely
inappropriate for the place that we're at, so like definitely
always like kind of research that.
Speaker 2 (01:18:08):
But I mean it's it's always like you know, it's
tough because it's they're they're.
Speaker 3 (01:18:14):
I mean, there's hacks to save money, like you know,
like I always tell people like don't book like through Expedia,
or don't book through like those third party.
Speaker 4 (01:18:23):
You recommend direct, hotel, director, airline.
Speaker 3 (01:18:26):
Either direct or individually, because they're charging you. So again
it comes down to like how much you care about it,
because they're charging you for for convenience, because they're they're
giving you the whole thing. So they're giving you a
whole thing, but you're booking for ten people, they're making
a good cut when you can actually have about the
flight for cheaper, you know, for ten people directly through
(01:18:47):
let's say Jet Blue or through Delta or American. But
some people are just like, you know, I just don't
want to deal with it.
Speaker 4 (01:18:55):
I'm that guy sometimes, you know, and it's it's and
it's cool.
Speaker 3 (01:18:57):
But for me, because I travel so much, you know,
I'm just like, you know, let me let me think.
But if you're a new traveler, if you're a younger traveler,
you probably don't get the money to like to get
out there like that, and and and yeah, just and
I feel like that kind of deters people from like
like damn, that's a lot of money. I don't know
if I want to do that. But then they're also like,
you know what I'm going to go it's all it's
all right there, boom, let's do it's one payment boom. Yeah.
(01:19:19):
But but like I might not have hacks now, but
whoever is watching your show, and if you guys ever
have questions like, I'm sure you can ask them through
him to get to me.
Speaker 2 (01:19:28):
Yeah, yeah, to find you because people people have different questions.
Speaker 3 (01:19:31):
You know. There's some people that are out there that
want to travel by themselves. I want to do soul travel,
people that want to talk, people that want to take
their families and they want to go somewhere where it's
kind of like like Yoka, where can I take my
family where me and my wife can have fun, but
then the kids could have fun too, because then people
go to places are like damn, like this is Matt Born.
But I'm like, yo, you got kids, Like.
Speaker 4 (01:19:49):
What do you what do you feel like?
Speaker 3 (01:19:50):
You know, So it's good to like look for those
spots that are kind of like you know, that are
a good balance between people and stuff like that. But yeah,
any questions that you know, there's a hack for everything.
Just let me know what it is you want and
we'll figure out that.
Speaker 4 (01:20:03):
One of the ends.
Speaker 1 (01:20:03):
And I wanted to make sure I end this this
Sunday conversation on this topic, because there's not a lot
of us where I can have this conversation with. We
went to a beautiful bilingual elementary school by the name
of Federal Street School. When I say there's not a
(01:20:25):
lot of us, because there's a very small fraternity of
us and we're damn they're proud.
Speaker 4 (01:20:32):
That's what.
Speaker 3 (01:20:34):
Hell. Yeah, have you seen it recently? Yeah, it's I
just sat for.
Speaker 4 (01:20:38):
The knock it down puts.
Speaker 3 (01:20:41):
Yeah. Yeah, facts like, don't.
Speaker 1 (01:20:44):
Any memory memories of those days? I know we're going back, Yeah,
thirty thirty.
Speaker 3 (01:20:49):
Which, by the way, our twenty year anniversaries next year
from from high school.
Speaker 4 (01:20:53):
Oh, it's crazy.
Speaker 3 (01:20:55):
Crazy that means that means that we were Yeah, it's
like thirty years ago essentially, the it is or more
than that because we were like five and six, right.
But you know, the one thing, bro is that I
always feel like we out of all the people from
Salem because we we we went to the school, like
we were definitely like a family more so than like
like other places. And like there's always going to be
(01:21:16):
that Federal Street connection with people and and I and
I still talk to like some of like our teachers
from back in the day, and and like I just
remember like we would have these we would make these
stupid freaking parachutes like for we would for like a
for like a parade. I don't know what the parade
was for, but we would, do you.
Speaker 2 (01:21:35):
Remember the parachutes like it was like.
Speaker 3 (01:21:37):
Was like a clothes pin, And we would have like
they would just have a bunch of events for us,
like out right outside the school. And and I think
it's because the space we were in, Yeah, they had
to be which Yo, thank god they were, because like yo,
like I still remember, like I still remember like like
the know you how many times that I forget hate
pizza from pizza because of the book Club. Bro, I'm sure,
(01:22:04):
I'm sure I didn't read the whole book, but.
Speaker 2 (01:22:07):
Chad GPT wasn't out that back then, but not yet.
Speaker 3 (01:22:11):
Just I mean, there's so many, so many memories, Bro,
that was a really great I wish that like our
kids had that opportunity now because I feel like it's
it's a lot bigger. Like, Yo, I had teachers back
in the day. They used to pull my ear, you
know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (01:22:23):
Try that now, you know what I'm saying, Like.
Speaker 1 (01:22:25):
We grew up literally and if you rethink about it,
like again, this is thirty years ago.
Speaker 3 (01:22:29):
In like don't say a two level world there, you.
Speaker 4 (01:22:32):
Know, man, listen, at this point, I gave it.
Speaker 3 (01:22:35):
I gave it all right.
Speaker 4 (01:22:36):
But like we're like a small fraternity, and I might.
Speaker 1 (01:22:43):
I like promising things on came because likeas Rell fucking you, also,
you gotta get into existence.
Speaker 4 (01:22:51):
I want to put something together. I want to do
it like a little get together for ye.
Speaker 3 (01:22:55):
So you know, somebody mentioned that to me because I
actually I feel like I pretty much talk to everybody
that we were in school with, whether they're still here
in Salem or not, whether it's on Facebook or Instagram.
And I think everybody would be so down to do that, bro,
And I think that the teachers would be down. And
(01:23:16):
I'm not even talking about two thousand and six. But
that's the thing I mean, not like I'm not even
talking about the class of thousand and six. I'm talking
about like Federal Sty. But the thing is, when you
think about it, is that like now we're talking us,
we're talking to people above us. If we're talking because
it was just Federal Street, it was that that era
of Federal Street.
Speaker 4 (01:23:35):
Good there's a good six or seven years.
Speaker 3 (01:23:36):
Yeah, it was that era. It was like when we
it was like the like maybe like when we were
in second grade, like kindergarten to us and then from
second grade to fifth grade, so it was like that generation,
you know what I'm saying. So like, if you do that,
you know there's going to be people from two thousand
and five, two thousand and four. And if you do it,
I think you should do it big because I don't
(01:23:58):
think that anybody has planned it. And if you do,
let me know, because help you out. Yeah, I think
that would be dope.
Speaker 4 (01:24:03):
That dope I've literally had.
Speaker 1 (01:24:06):
I've definitely said it online before and people are.
Speaker 3 (01:24:09):
Like, yeah, yeah, that would be super dope street. It
would be easy too because a lot of the people are.
Speaker 4 (01:24:15):
A lot of us are around the area. We're still here.
Speaker 3 (01:24:17):
There's there's very there's very little people that are away
that that that that are not here that they're always
here either for the holidays, and I think I think we.
Speaker 4 (01:24:28):
Give a credit to us. We're that close that you know,
like high.
Speaker 1 (01:24:33):
School reunions and stuff is one of those stuff for
like people a lot of people don't want to you
don't you know you hear that you see it online
in the media, people.
Speaker 4 (01:24:39):
Like, oh, I have to go to their high school reunion.
But with us, it's like, nah, we kind of want
to see each other like ship, bro, Like I want
to see like.
Speaker 2 (01:24:47):

Speaker 3 (01:24:49):
Let them invite.
Speaker 4 (01:24:52):

Speaker 3 (01:24:53):
We should really we should really consider that, like maybe
not this year, like like next summer, because.
Speaker 2 (01:25:01):
It'll be twenty years. It'll be our it'll be our
twenty years, so it'll be good to like, you.
Speaker 3 (01:25:06):
Know, to whatever. But we should definitely look into that, bro.
I think that would be dope.
Speaker 4 (01:25:09):
It'd be dope.
Speaker 1 (01:25:10):
We'll definitely looking Well, this has been a great conversation.
It's been a long time coming for sure. We learned
a lot, a lot of a lot of traveling.

just went to DR.
Speaker 1 (01:25:40):
So We're supposed to go with them first, but then
you know, when they they heard we're going to, the
rest of the family wanted to go. We don't want
some big thing, so you went by themselves. And I
was like, you went to dr but you didn't go
to the I was like, drink, drink may one thing.
We drink a lot now again one, No, people think
we drink a lot. Obviously we've calmed down a lot
(01:26:03):
in the last five five years.

But yeah, when we when we get together, we get
lit in dry. That's our super Bowl. It's like literally
like an all inclusive wait.
