Cut Mousta not cayo. Everyone,what's good? Everybody? My name is
Nico Blitz and then Kiz and weare back with another episode of Mexic Pino
podcast. We're here. It isfreezing in California still, but it is
not raining and it's all good.It's actually supposed to rain this weekend,
I know, sad vibes. Hopefullyour you know, living room doesn't get
(00:22):
flooded again. Yeah, we actuallyprobably have to go get sandbags now that
they think about it. Yeah,and hopefully the sandbags actually work. You
know what, I didn't even realizethat you can go to a you know,
a fire station and get sandbags todo all that. Yeah, it's
like, uh yeah, it's likea state mandated thing. I think,
like for safety reasons. I thinklike especially when things are in like state
(00:47):
of emergency or like emergency flood warningstuff like that they they provide. There's
like different services that the state hasto provide. Mmm, got you So
that must be super heavy in likeSeattle or something like that. Yeah,
it's probably like a normal thing orpeople just have their sandbags already. Yeah,
that's very true. It's like again, isn't equipped for rain or anything
(01:07):
other than sunshine. We need morethan sunshine. We need sunshine, we
need heat. I am tired ofthis cold noways, Oh sorry, I
hate the summertime. I love goingout in the summertime, but I like,
I hate the heat. I'm nota I'm not a heat person.
Well, I just need it tobe like five degrees warmer so I don't
(01:30):
have to use the heater anymore.Yeah, that heater bill will look crazy.
Yeah, it looks neat. Youmean I hope this time around.
No, No, it's all good. It's all good. This past weekend
though, it was the Super Bowl, and although Jackie's family and my family
are both Niner fans, unfortunately theNiners freaking lost. Yes, but like
(01:53):
I would say, majority of myfamily's Niners fans. And then there's like
random other like yeah, my dad'sa Rams fan, my brother's an Eagles
fan, my sister in laws aSeahawks fan, my uncle is a Cowboys
fan. That's why it was.It was so random. It was a
very random party to go to,just because there were so many jerseys there.
(02:15):
Yeah, and I think one ofmy other uncles is a Bears fan,
like a Cincinnati Bears fan Bears,Yeah, uncle Troy, Okay,
well the other are the Bears areBrowns? I don't know, I can't
remember. Yeah, one of thoseteams. But regardless, you know,
it was crazy because you know,I'm from the Bay, so I did
want the Niners to win. Iwill say, though, I am a
(02:36):
bandwagon Niners fan, Like I don'treally be watching football like that in general,
but whenever the Niners go crazy,you know, I'm obviously just for
the Bay. At least he admitsit. Yeah, so yeah, there's
that. Yeah, I gotta saythat, right. But I mean,
I think this year with football wassuch a weird year. Why because like
(02:57):
there's just so much going on inthe NFL that's like it's good and bad,
and then like there's stuff that likepeople are mixed about, like you
know, like Taylor Swift is sucha big topic in the NFL, which
is a crazy statement to say.Yeah, and it's because she's dating Travis
Kelcey. Is Benny biting He's justlooking Okay, no, he's biting.
(03:23):
But it's because, like you know, like I said, Taylor Swift is
dating Travis Kelcey, And I thinkso many people are so harsh to her
and it's really not her fault,Like I don't care, Like I know
there's gonna be people that say,like, oh, well, they don't
have to show her as much,and da da, It's not like she's
(03:44):
sign a contract with the NFL sayinglike, if I go to a game,
you guys have to show me xamount of times. That's not it.
It really isn't. And she's literallyjust being a supportive girlfriend, like
she can't help it that she's oneof the big pop stars in the world,
like she regardless if you like hermusic or not, you gotta respect
(04:06):
the fact that she is one ofthe biggest like people, artists, pop
stars, celebrities out there. Well, didn't you have like a post on
your ig that yeah, Like soeveryone was complaining. I mean they've been
complaining every time Taylor Swift goes tolike a super or a football game.
But for the Super Bowl, theyshowed her twelve times on screen in a
(04:30):
span of four hours. They onlyshowed her showed her for a total of
fifty three seconds, and people werestill bitching and complaining, And I'm just
like, this is just people justhating on a woman at this point,
Like that's literally what it is.And I don't understand it. I don't
get it. And it's so weirdto me that when even like women talk
(04:54):
bad about her. Yeah, it'sso weird to me. But yeah,
I mean I think that's the weirdthing for sure, just because, like
I mean, I know what theNFL is doing at the end of the
day, right, and I'm sureeverybody does. It's a marketing tactic.
You get Taylor Swift on camera everyso often, then you're gonna get more
of Taylor Swift's fans like either watchingthe games or going to the games,
which essentially means more money for theNFL. Now, my thing is like
(05:18):
when it comes to like guys talkingdown about like Taylor Swift, it's like,
well, why didn't you want yourgirl to like watch the football game?
Which, yeah, and there wasa commercial of like there was a
commercial that showed it when it wasa Setophil commercial, which is a face
(05:39):
wash. Yeah, but it wasa commercial of how like daughters actually started
watching football games with their dads moreand it was because of Taylor Swift,
Like it was. It didn't neverset her name in it, but they
had like you know, hints hereand there, like eggs of like the
bracelets that you know, people wouldtake to her, the friendship blasts that
people would take to her concerts andstuff like that, and it was a
(06:01):
red jersey that they were wearing,and it was just like, okay,
yeah, we know what it ispretty obvious. Yeah, and I think
that was a really beautiful commercial.Now there is some like, I guess
controversy with that commercial because I guessSeto Phil took that storyline from a TikTok
creator. Oh okay, yeah,so a TikTok creator. She actually her
(06:23):
page recently started becoming like a storyand her life with her dad now that
Taylor Swift has been in the NFL, She's like, now I watch football
games with my dad. Now,I you know, I'm involved in this
and I may not know everything,but I'm learning, you know. And
I guess set of Phil probably sawthat and they took her storyline without like
(06:46):
here we go big companies, bigcompanies taking ideas from the small creators once
again. Later, yeah, it'spretty insane, but I think seta Phil
like actually made a statement on thatand like their care stuff on that end,
they should have gave her some breador they should have gave her some
extra set of film. I'm sick. But at the end of the day
though, still like Taylor Swift isnot the the person making these decisions like
(07:11):
let her be. Everyone's like,oh, well, why don't we get
to see like the other players families, And it's like, y'all got pissed
when you would see Patrick Mahomes's wifeor his brother. You know, his
brother, I kind of understand,but his wife, Yeah, yeah,
we everyone knows Mama Kelse like she'sshe's a great person, and we see
her on this screen. We likeliterally see Travis Kelsey's and Jason Kelsey's podcast
(07:38):
too, like clips of it.And then there's the forty nine ers player,
his wife Chris. It's so funnybecause I know her name, but
I don't know his name. I'mfucking sick. Who her name is?
Christian Yuschev. I think that's howyou say it, but I know how
to spell it because he said itin a video one time. It's j
U s. And then it's like, oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
(08:00):
uh cat yellow kit yell cat,yellow cat like something. Memory how to
spell his name based off of likethat way, Yeah, well that's how
he said it. He's like he'slike, oh, like, how do
you spell your last name? Andhe's like ja us and then he goes
cat yellow kidding, No, catyellow cat, zebra kitten. It's like,
yeah, no, it's used don'tkill me, it's used check anyway.
(08:24):
I like people again football, butagain, people know his wife because
she started making clothes out of likejerseys. Yeah, I remember, you
show me that. Yeah, andshe makes her game day outfits and she's
an incredible fashion designer. But like, so people have no problem with that.
(08:46):
But then when it comes to TayorSwift, everyone just wants to hate
on her and it's not like cool. It really isn't. Yeah. I
mean I think everybody just kind ofneeds to chill and just understand that.
Like, I mean, I thinkTaylor Swift is actually good for the NFL.
I mean, it got Joe Quidto talk about some jokes. Yeah
you know what I'm saying. Itgot what's his name, who's ever know?
(09:07):
You got Trevor Noah talking about somejokes and like, yo, you
look but yeah, and so likeand at the end of the day,
it does get people involved because it'slike when you know, I have a
niece and a nephew. Jackie alSaw is a niece, and like,
if it takes a Taylor Swift toget them involved in the things that we
love, then like so be it. Yeah, and like at the end
(09:28):
of the day, too, thereare This was the most streamed NF Super
Bowl ever. Yeah, with overlike one hundred and thirty four million viewers.
Yeah, for sure, you can'ttell me that Taylor Swift didn't have
something to do with that. Yeah, Like the NFL and CBS for the
Super Bowl, they knew what probablyhalf like fifty percent if not more of
(09:54):
their viewers were there to see notonly just the football game. I get
it, but but they know thatthere's little girls or there's older women that
like want to see Taylor Swift's reactions, so they're gonna feed to that.
But it was a total of fiftythree seconds in a four hour span,
Like, stop bitching about it.Yeah, it was funny because like I
(10:16):
even think, you know, evenIce Spice was in that sweet with Taylor
Swift. And I saw your cousins, like your thirteen fourteen year old cousins,
girl cousins, like you know,they were like little Oh my god,
Ice Spice is watching the Super BowlTaylor Swift. It's like, okay,
now they're more involved, when youknow, at some point they probably
weren't as involved because you know,their dad probably just told them like,
(10:37):
hey, like we're gonna watch thisfucking game. You're gonna wear this jersey.
Yeah, Like I I there aresome of my cousins you know that
were like excited to see the celebritiesthat were on there. And I'm I'm
one of those people too. Yeah, I'm one of those people that I
watch sports. I watch a footballgame, you know, but I'm really
there to see it for who isthere? Who's the like who's who of
(11:00):
like you know, watching the game. But now when it comes to baseball
games, I don't really care.But like I actually really love baseball.
Yeah, but football, like I'mokay. Like the other day, we
went to a Clippers game and Iwas more excited to see Travis Scott on
the big screen, and who wassitting next to him was Michael Rubin.
Like I was like, oh mygod, like that and whow. I'm
(11:22):
like, I don't know who thefuck she's talking about, Michael Rubin.
That's the guy who throws like theall white Michael Rubin parties, like that's
where every A list celebrity is at. Like and by all white, she
means like all white dressed, yeah, like all white like attire. Yeah,
but like that's like that's the guy. He's a CEO fanatics, Like
I am interested in the entertainment aspectof the games, you know, and
(11:46):
little do fucking people know that thatthere is so much entertainment that happens during
professional sports games. Yeah, Imean, and I'm speaking as an inner
teament host for a sports team fora major sports organization, Like I don't
I don't think people understand. It'slike it's not just the game, there's
(12:09):
so much more. Your favorite playersare getting visited by celebrities in their in
their locker rooms, right before thegame, right after the game, Like,
so fuck off. Firstly, ifyou don't like Taylor Swift being shown,
because guess what your favorite player wantsto meet her? Yeah exactly,
Shaq literally said, like at theSuper Bowl he prior to it, he
(12:33):
said, I want to meet TaylorSwift and take a picture with her because
I want to shake the hand ofgreatness. Like that's shack like you know,
yeah, no, I totally getthat. And you know, I
feel like if you're not even talkingfrom a like celebrity standpoint, like let's
say you're just really like gung hoon, like, oh, Taylor Swift
(12:54):
is Taylor Swift? That there areso many different aspects about you know,
the game itself now and the playerswithin the game that just make you know,
major league sports like that much moreenjoyable. And it personally makes me
a fan of like certain people.Right. So for instance, like one
(13:15):
of the winners of the Super Bowl, like he's on the Chiefs, his
name is Nico Remigio. Shout outto him, and he's Filipino. Yeah,
And I literally wouldn't have known thatif it wasn't for like him really
repping like his Filipino pride. Yeah. And so the thing that really got
me though, like again, youknow, I'm for the Bay always,
(13:35):
but I'm even more so for Filipinos, Right, so when it came to
him winning the Super Bowl, LikeI'd give a fuck about the Chiefs winning
the Super Bowl, but Nico wonthe Super Bowl and he has a ring
and he's Filipino, yeah, andhe and he reps it, like you
said, he reps it so hard. Yeah, And I'm looking at this
(13:56):
from a perspective of, oh cool, a Filipino won the fuck super Bowl.
That is so lit to me.And now I you know, I
followed him on Instagram like right away, and I was like, I'm legitimately
a fan of this guy. Now. The unfortunate part was that, you
know, one of these big Filipinoig companies, I believe it was Filipinos
(14:18):
from the six they had posted aboutit and they were giving him his praise,
but everyone in the comments was justso negative about it, talking about
like who, like did he evenplay? Yeah, like, oh,
they're talking about someone on like thirdor fourth string. And I'm just like
I'm looking through everyone's comments and I'mlike, well, I'm assuming everyone on
(14:41):
here is Filipino. Yeah, sowhat's with this Filipino on Filipino hate that
is going on right now? Yeah? And I saw something too, and
I think it was I may notbe Oh my god, uh huh no,
that's not gonna happen right now.Sorry, it may not be.
It may not be. Like Iwasn't sure if white people were hating on
(15:03):
him, and I, like yousaid, that he didn't really play as
much and maybe he was hurt.I'm not really sure about it. But
because again I don't follow the chiefslike that, but because you know,
you are Filipino and obviously this isMexicpino podcast, I'm like, I'm gonna
be aware of and get to knowthese people that are changing the Filipino community.
(15:26):
And I saw a post of his, or I saw a post that
was that was giving him praise.Yeah, and he said uh. In
the comments, he actually commented,he said, all love for my fellow
Filipinos. Don't knock me too muchfor smelling the roses. Gonna do everything
in my power to make sure I'mplaying in the big game next year.
(15:48):
Thanks for the support and for thatto be like you know, you said
that Filipino and Filipino like dis andeverything like that. That's really how it
is for like like Latinos too,Like we're so quick to just be like,
oh, you know what, likewe're gonna sho on him or we're
gonna shoot on her, and dada dah. And it's like we're Latinos
doing this shit too, Like youknow, instead of supporting each other,
(16:11):
we're breaking down each other, like, Yeah, why are we gonna trash
talk our own people when they're whenwe're doing something great, when we're trying
to put our people on the map, like that shit isn't and especially when
there aren't too much of us,And you know, I'll bring it back
to the NFL specifically. There aren'ttoo many Latinos or Filipinos in the NFL
(16:33):
specifically, you know, And I'msure there's a lot more pride that goes
on when it comes to like theMLB, because there's a lot of Latino
players who play in the MLB.Yeah, but NFL specifically, it's like
I remember Jackie mentioning to me like, oh, there's a player on I
believe it was the Chiefs who isno on the Niners, who's Dominican.
Yeah, he was a Dominican orPuerto Rican. I can't remember. Yeah,
(16:56):
yeah, excuse me, but youknow I saw that and I was
like, oh shit, like there'sa Latino. Like, you know,
primarily, the NFL is a African, American and white space and that's totally
fine. And we can't forget aboutthe Hawaiians, them Hawaiian and the Hawaiians
islands, the Islanders go fucking crazylike the Hawaiians. Some omens like y'all
(17:18):
fucking hold that ship down, y'all, y'all hold down that line and ship
like that. No, but forreal, Like so when I see a
Latino or like a Latino last name, I'm like, damn, is he
half? Is he full? Likeregardless, Like that's fucking cool, Like
uh uh juant Toscano Anderson, Ohyeah, j T A j T A
(17:41):
fuck. I wanted to get oneof his Laker jerseys. Granted he's not
with the Lakers anymore. I wantedto get a Laker jersey of his because
I was like, bro, he'shalf Mexican. That ship is so cool
and I and he was the firstlike Mexican on the Lakers, and that's
so cool to me, Like,especially in the city of our that's like
the moment where we have to likefucking just be about our people and bring
(18:06):
each other up instead of tearing eachother down because that shit is not cool.
And then we go on to say, like on social media like oh
and it's it's the same thing aslike women supporting women, women empowerment type
shit. You know, like alot of people want to to front on
those things and be like, ohyeah, like I support women and women
(18:27):
empowerment, empowered women, empower womentype shit. But little do you do
you know that those women that saythat shit are the ones that will talk
shit about other women. And Iknow a few. I know a fucking
few. And it's the same thingwith Latinos. It's the same thing with
Filipinos that you know we've been seeingtime and time again. Why can't we
(18:49):
just fucking be happy for each other, support each other, and be grateful
and thankful to those that are leadinga pathway to these different ass careers that
we normally don't do exactly because youknow what I saw when I saw,
you know, Nico's video posting onthe internet, I was like, you
know what, I'm past my primeto ever start playing football. But if
(19:14):
you're like a fourteen fifteen year oldkid, Filipino kid, and you're thinking
about playing football, you could lookat Nico and be like, oh,
well, shoot, if Nico becamelike a Super Bowl champion, even you
know, even though he didn't play, it's all good, but he's on
the team he won a super Bowlchampionship, I could do that too,
(19:34):
Like why are we going to downplaythe fact that there is a Filipino,
there is a Hispanic Latino in theNFL, and like we're not praising that
enough. And you know what,I do want to give flowers to Cameron
by them too. Who the vikingsbecause he also is half Filipino I think
or he's full Filipino, I'm notsure. And his story of like getting
(19:59):
his wife over here from the Philippineswas one of the biggest stories in the
NFL this year. Yeah, hiswife was in the Philippines, she was
working on his visa, and postgame interview, he's all like, yo,
my wife is trying to work onher visa to get over here.
So if anybody like has any connections, let me know. And his wife
got here and it was such abeautiful story. Yeah, and he's so
proud of his Filipino heritage. He'sproud of his wife for being Filipino.
(20:22):
Like that shit is so cool.Like so it's okay, It's okay that
everyone supported that storyline because he's anactive, active player on the field.
But when it comes to Nico Remigio, like, oh, we're gonna back
up because he didn't play in thepreseason, he was a fucking beast.
(20:42):
When he's fully healthy, he's gonnabe a fucking beast. Be fucking prideful.
Don't pick and choose when you wantto be like, oh, we
take this Filipino and we're not gonnatake that Filipino. That shit's not cool,
because you know what's cool about bothof them too, is like you
know, if you go on likeeither of their page, and especially like
Cameron Binom's page, like there's Filipinoflags all over their freaking story, which
(21:06):
is a lot more than what alot of people can say. Like,
you know, they are on oneof the biggest platforms in the world,
which is the NFL, and thefact that they put a representation for Filipinos
like so hard, whether it beon their ig personal life or you never
even know what they could be doinglike within like the inner circles of their
(21:29):
team. I mean they could dobe They could be doing something as simple
as like hey, bro, liketrysa mupia. For example. I think
Cameron Binum he actually went back tothe Philippines and did like some stuff over
there, some like yeah, andyou know Nico Remigio, like you said,
like he there's you go on theirinstagrams and you see all that shit
(21:51):
of like being prideful of their heritage. Like Nico Remigio his picture, his
his portrait picture with the Vincent BartieTrophy, he's wearing a Filipino flag.
Yeah, he's repping that shit sohard. And like you said, a
kid who's twelve eleven, a Filipinokid is gonna see that and be like,
(22:11):
fuck, I could be a superBowl champion one day. Yeah,
exactly. I mean, I honestlyfeel the same way when it comes to
people like Jordan Clarkson or even likeJalen Green. Jordan Clarkson of the Utah
Jazz and the NBA and then JalenGreen of the Houston Rockets. Like I
mean, there's a funny meme that'sgoing around where both of them are just
kind of like talking to each other, right, and then someone dubbed it
(22:33):
to have them be speaking to Gallag. Yeah, now I'm over here like
this is hilarious, bro, becauseI'm sure they don't speak the way you
know, he didn't know what Imean, Like they don't have the accents
and everything like that. But youknow, knowing that Jordan Clarkson is Filipino.
Knowing that Jalen Green is Filipino,I'm not gonna lie. I wanted
both of them on my fantasy team, and Jalen Green is going crazy for
(22:57):
me on my fantasy so I'm notreally but you know, it's just a
simple fact that they're Filipino that makesme even more happy and more proud to
be like yo, like I wantthem on my team, Like I kind
of want to follow them a littlebit more because I just want to see
what they're gonna do. And bothof them are going crazy on their own
teams, respectively, and you know, if it comes down to Jordan Clarkson
(23:21):
like beating the Golden State Warriors orwhatever, or Jordan Clarkson winning a championship,
or Jalen Green winning a championship,like, I'm so with it.
Like I'm not fans of their teams. I am fans of them simply because
they are Filipino. Yeah, andyou just like you appreciate the fact that
they are accepting of their heritage,of their culture where their family is from.
(23:42):
You know, yeah, I thinkit's I think it's like again,
it's just a very toxic thing thatboth of our cultures do both of our
heritages. It's just a very outdatedlike way thinking. Yeah, yeah,
it's an outdated way of thinking,and we need to change like a lot
(24:03):
of shit about our cultures. Well, that's what I mean. That's the
first question. Like what is itthat we like do about it? Yeah,
I think like, well, forexample, like us, like this
next generation of Latinos and Asian Americansand Pacific Islanders, like it's our responsibility
to not do what our parents did. And just you know, we like
(24:27):
to trauma dump, we like tojoke about our traumas and shit like that,
and people are gonna be like,oh, well, you guys are
just soft. No, I'm notsoft. It's just that I realized that
the way that I grew up,in the way that I was put in
certain situations, I realized, like, that's not okay, Yeah, you
know, it wouldn't. I'm notgoing to be the type of parent to
(24:51):
finally understand my kid once my kidhas moved out of the house. I'm
going to understand my kid from dayone. And yes, my kid might
you know, annoy the fuck outof me, and they might do something
that I'm gonna want to strangle them, but I'm like, I'm not going
to ever do that, you know, like it's it's a toxic thing.
Like breaking those cycles of just fromthe basic things of learning to say sorry,
(25:18):
you know, learning to say orsaying sorry in Latino households is the
most difficult thing for Latino parents todo. Like yeah, I don't think
Latino parents actually ever say sorry,Like that's your parents have never said sorry
to you. Rarely they've said sorry, but not for like hell reacting okay,
(25:42):
okay, yeah, Like it's like, yeah, like if I were
to get in trouble for something andlike I know I didn't do something,
and I get yelled at and I'mlike scolded at, and then I it
ends up provinglater on that like ohshe was actually right. I don't.
(26:03):
I don't get an apology. Ijust I'm like, all right, well,
hopefully they see it. Hopefully theysee that they were wrong, you
know, you know Latino's parent aLatino parents favorite way of saying sorry without
saying sorry is just cutting up fruitand giving it to you or are you
hungry, like like yeah, letme let me make it up to you.
(26:26):
There's been days where like my mom, and I love my mom,
and our relationship has gotten so muchbetter the past year. But there was
times when I was younger when mymom would not talk to me for like
days. Yeah, Like there wasdays where my mom would give me the
silent treatment, and then it wasn'tuntil like she was cooking or she needed
(26:47):
something and she was just like,can you help me with this? Or
like I would have to go.I would go and be like Mom,
like, I'm sorry, even thoughlike sometimes I wasn't the wrong. Yeah,
yeah, yeah, even though youwere the one who shouldn't have even
been sorry in the first place.So freaking hard for Latino parents say sorry.
And I've accepted that. I nowmy parents say I'm sorry more and
(27:10):
they're just more understanding of things.So I can't really like blame them for
the stuff that they do now.Yeah, yeah, I can only forgive
the thing, forgive some of thestuff they said in the past. Yeah,
but they've never said I'm sorry.Like my twenty second birthday, my
first birthday with you, they neversaid sorry about that shit. Oh that's
(27:30):
crazy. They never said sorry.We just moved on. Yeah, I
mean, it's it's very similar tohow like Filipino households are like the parents
will never say sorry in a Filipinohousehold, Like there will be times where
I know my parents are wrong andI kind of just you know, I've
I've let it off. I'm justlike, you know what you could think
(27:52):
the way you're thinking, and it'sall good with me. And then the
next thing, you know, it'sthe same thing. It's like we're gonna
have dinner and then we're just gonnaend up talking about something completely different from
like anything that happened. Yeah,And you know, unfortunately, I feel
like it trickled down to me whereI'm just like okay, cool, Like
you know, I kind of liketo like I do end up saying sorry
anyway. But you know, I'mthe type of persons who are like I
(28:17):
would rather like make it up toyou rather than like say sorry to begin
with. But I've done a waybetter job. It's saying sorry first and
then making it up to you afterwards. See that's the thing, Like we
say sorry as the kids m whenwe're not the ones that need to be
sorry. We're not the ones thatneed to be sorry. And I'm just
(28:41):
gonna say that, like we're notthe ones, I need to be sorry
all the freaking time, like ourparents. Hopefully you're like people's parents,
you know, grow out of that. I know my parents did. But
it's like, so it's such atoxic like way to grow up, like
(29:02):
thinking it's almost and I know peopleare gonna get like, oh my gosh,
she's just like so soft blah blahblah. But like it's almost in
the sense like gaslighting your kid,like to think that they're the one that
is wrong all the time. They'rethe problem. And honestly, that's how
it's affected me down the line nowthat I think about it now, it's
affected me down the line of likerelationships and and just the way that I
(29:26):
go about certain things. If Ilike her a person because of something that
I truly believe in, I'm like, fuck, you know what, Like
I'm sorry, Like but I don'tneed to be sorry about certain things,
you know. But it's just instilledin me that, like, well,
you have to be the one tosay I'm sorry, because they're not going
to. Well that's why I noted. I mean I noticed it within our
relationship, Like y'all, Jackie wouldsay sorry over the simplest things and I'd
(29:49):
actually get kind of annoyed. I'djust be like, why the fuck are
you even saying sorry? Like there'sno point in being sorry about, like,
I don't know, leaving a shirton the on the couch. Yeah,
Like, there's literally no point insaying sorry. Just pick up the
shirt and go do it. Youdon't have to say sorry. And it's
(30:11):
so weird that you say that,Like, you know, it's unfortunate because
if that's how you are raised,just to constantly say I'm sorry, that
means you constantly feel like it isyour fault. And then you translate that
to the real world, that isjust that much more aggressive than like,
you know, your own household.It's like you feel sorry over like the
stupidest things that aren't even like outin your control. Yeah, it's it's
(30:37):
just a lot to kind of thinkabout and actually really process as you get
older, of like, Okay,how can I navigate around my parents?
How can I, you know,say something in a way without them being
offended? And honestly, that's probablywhy like a lot of Latino like kids
in our generation and adults in ourin our generation and just don't really want
(31:02):
to have relationships with their parents anymore. You know, Yeah, that's very
true. It's just a toxic cyclethat unfortunately some parents, older Latino parents
don't get out of, you know, I think because they never gotten I'm
sorry when they were kids. MI hear that they see cycles that are
going to keep going until one ofthem, one of these generations breaks the
(31:25):
cycle. That's weird because I dothink like in Filipino Households though, like
you know how the sorry is kindof like made up through like actions rather
than like actually speaking, you know, like I've said time and time throughout
like any number one of these episodes, like Filipinos, for the most part,
we're lazy when it comes to talking, Like we'll point with our mouth
just like like just so that wedon't have to say anything. And so
(31:48):
my point being is that like we'dmuch rather like do it in action,
and it's kind of like accepted that, like whatever the action is, like
whether it be like cooking for someoneor taking out the trash or you know,
like any one of these household chores, that's already unanimously accepted as the
sorry. And you know, Ifeel like Filipino Households aren't as broken as
(32:12):
like you're saying, like Latino householdscan get to and you know, I
still do think that's a very unfortunatething if that is the case. Yeah,
I mean everyone has their different experiences, you know, with growing up
and how Latino households are, howAsian and Pacific islander households are. Everyone
(32:34):
has their own different experiences growing up, how their parents are, so some
people may have it better than thenext person, you know, And luckily
I appreciate everything my parents have everdone for me. Are there things that
I wish I could have changed growingup and the way that we've we communicated
each other, Yeah, thousand percent. But I can only like forgive them
(33:00):
and move past it. And nowwith you know, the next generation that
we bring, you know, Ican only hope that they'll be more understanding
when it comes to like our kids. Yeah, no, I hear that,
and I've seen it, like myparents, this is the most fucked
(33:23):
up thing. But like Latino parentsforget everything they ever did to you,
like once they get grandkids. Yeah, well, like all of a sudden
they got McDonald's money, don't wedon't, Like all of a sudden they
grant everything in the freaking world,but when it came to you as their
(33:44):
child, it was like no,you know, you know, ask for
it again. You know what's sofunny is that like being in a Filipino
household. Like, it's funny youmentioned McDonald's because my grandpa, every single
morning he would go to McDonald's,which was down the street from his house,
like literally a block or two away, and he would get me the
he'd give me the pancakes, thehot cakes, I think, like bacon,
(34:07):
and like you know, like thesausage, right, and I'd be
like I felt a little bit spoiled. I'm like, damn, like this
is a dope ass breakfast to have, like every time I'm over at my
grandpa's house, like this is cool, right yeah. And the funny thing
is my Filipino mom will never everlet this go. But she'll always be
like, man, you guys thinkyou guys have it bad at certain points,
(34:29):
you guys don't even realize like whatI had to go through when Grandma
and Grandpa like wouldn't even let meout the house. I couldn't go to
prom I couldn't do this with myfriends. I had to be home at
like eight, Like so the factthat even I'm letting you out until like
nine o'clock with like no repercussions Likethat says a lot. And then meanwhile,
(34:49):
when my grandparents should you know,my grandparents give me McDonald's for breakfast,
I'm over here, like, nah, you're tripping. Grandpa's hella cool,
Grandpa's hella cool. My grandparents.So I'm the first girl in my
family of like grandkids and nieces andnephews. Yeah, I was the first
girl. So I was spoiled theheck out of everyone. Like my aunts,
(35:14):
they were like they would always buyme clothes. My grandpa and my
grandma's like they would like they wouldlike, oh be like oh, like
Mihita, you know, like Iwas. I was the golden child because
I was a girl. You hearthat, Jacob, she was the golden
child. I was, and heknows it. He knows it anyway,
(35:34):
But yeah, it was. Itwas just funny like growing up because I
was like, oh, my god, my grandma and grandpa and my other
grandma, they're like so nice.They're the best people ever. They're the
best people on this earth, andyou know, they can never do no
wrong. And then as I gotolder, my mom was like, your
grandpa used to hit me with acable, like, and then my other
aund would be like, you know, Grandpa. I would tell him that
(35:55):
I want to go to a party. He would say it's six o'clock.
I want you back home by eight, and she's like, Dad, the
party doesn't even start to He's like, take it or leave it, you
know, And I was just like, you know, man, my grandfa
never like, yeah, it's notmy grandfather, and like, is damn
near? Like grandparents, they endup having that second wind and they're just
(36:15):
like, you know what, likeI low key fucked up on my first
round of kids, so I'm gonnamake it up with my grandkids. You
know. What it probably is too, is that they can return these kids
their grandkids. Like they'd be like, oh, yeah, this is your
child, so they don't got tostay here, Like, oh that's true.
I mean I think I think wewere over at like we all at
your parents' house the other day,and then they ended up giving isla like
(36:37):
some what do you call it,like some chocolate raisins or something, and
then you're chocolate almonds, Yeah,chocolate almonds. And then I just saw
your dad just be like like like, don't tell them, and I'm just
like, he's not a bitch,dude, Like like she's gonna go back
home with her bear and she's like, yeah, I'm not gonna stay with
me. Yeah. I think that'sso funny. And like I think being
(37:00):
grandparent, like from my like,seeing my parents become grandparents is the most
beautiful thing, Like they just Iguess now I can see Oh my god,
oh why am I gonna get emotionalover this? I can see like
a love that my parents have thatI probably didn't see and didn't appreciate it
(37:21):
when I was a kid because Iwas their kid. Yeah yeah, yeah,
And now I get to see thembe like so like loving and I
can't wait for them to be likethat with our kids. So I wonder
if like they were actually like that, but you just didn't see it.
No, I got yelled at andthey don't yell at my knee. So
well, shout out to the grandkidsfor basically never getting shit from their grandparents.
(37:44):
Yeah. Literally, Oh my gosh, that's so like emotional with the
freak. Well, Jackie's actually crying, ladies and gentlemen, if you're not
listening, I'm just tearing up becausethat was so like sweet that I just
said that. And I just seemy parents in a different light now,
Yeah, oh yeah, I havebeen, not just in this very moment,
but like I have been seeing themin a different light. Yeah for
(38:05):
sure. Well, yeah, we'regonna pivot and talk about this fucking Asian
Costco right now, because did y'allknow that there is literally an Asian Costco
over here in southern California. Yeah, so apparently it's like this is this
is this new Asian Costco. Iwant to look up the name of it
real quick so that way I don'tlike mess up. I might butcher the
name though, but it's in acity of industry. I think, oh
(38:31):
my gosh, what the heck?Uh? They literally just opened like a
month ago, and I really wantto go because I really want to go
because I told this Taniko. Andthis is not an ad, by the
way, this is not a sponsorship. We're just literally talking about it because
we're so excited he could buy likewholesale items or individual items at that Asian
(38:51):
Costco now. And I'm so excitedbecause I saw on one of their reels
on Instagram that you can buy unpeeledgarlic. That's wild. It's actually called
Resco. Yeah, I just foundit. Yeah, see Jackie's looking on
TikTok. I'm just looking on Googlea Google search. I just oh,
(39:12):
I'm looking on on Instagram. It'sI'm will follow them. It's Rescal Food
and it's open Monday through Sunday fromeight am to a pm. And the
city in the City of Industry.It's so cool, like they have everything
you could possibly think of, likesauces, like packed food already. The
(39:35):
I mean they got the barbecue meaty'all. They have, Oh my gosh,
they have like all these high shoesand like candies like Asian candies.
They have like frozen dumplings and stufflike that. They have like they have
every literal Asian like of different likecountries like Asian foods that you could think
(39:57):
of like sauces and shit like that. I'm actually the didn't put it in
like Alhambra or something like that.Nah. City of Industry is a good
one. I mean City of Industrythat's like West Covina. That's where like
West Covina meets like La Puente andlike all that right there. Yeah,
it's it's a predominantly like Asian likeneighborhood over there too. City of Industry.
(40:19):
Yeah, City of Industry. It'sCity of Industry. It's so weird.
City of Industry, like if youknow City of Industry. I don't
like it's where. It's where likekind of like Hussy and the Highs up
went the West Covina. It's likeit's literally like right, it meets all
of those three well rather really weird. It's where the Tommies is. Well,
rather, I think it should havebeen in like West Covina because that's
just smack in the middle of whereall the Asians are. Really yeah,
(40:43):
that's true, but I think therethere probably wasn't enough space to accommodate.
And they have so many different ramans. I really want to go. They
have like they have so much Ireally want to go. I'm just looking
at all the sauces and literally it'skind of built like a Costco too.
They have like the drinks and stufflike that. That's so cool. Yeah,
well, shouts Toresco. We gottamake our way over there down just
once. I don't I don't knowif you have to have a membership or
(41:06):
I think that memberships are only liketwenty bucks a year. That's hella good.
Yeah, that's fucking sick. Butkeep it clean, y'all, keep
it like pure over there. Damn, the lines are long as fuck.
I was just looking at that rightnow. Oh my god, look at
that big piece of meat with that, and then you could buy also the
meats for hot pot and Korean barbecue. There, it's a fucking wrap.
(41:30):
It's a rap. I'm sorry.Yeah, shouts Aresco. We gotta you
gotta open one up over here inthe valley one time. I really want
to go to Resco. So ifanybody is listening that works at Resco or
know somebody from Resco, let usknow. We need that sponsorship. That's
all I'm about to say. We'redown for that sponsorship. Hell yeah,

podcast. We're here. It isfreezing in California still, but it is
not raining and it's all good.It's actually supposed to rain this weekend,
I know, sad vibes. Hopefullyour you know, living room doesn't get
(00:22):
flooded again. Yeah, we actuallyprobably have to go get sandbags now that
they think about it. Yeah,and hopefully the sandbags actually work. You
know what, I didn't even realizethat you can go to a you know,
a fire station and get sandbags todo all that. Yeah, it's
like, uh yeah, it's likea state mandated thing. I think,
like for safety reasons. I thinklike especially when things are in like state
(00:47):
of emergency or like emergency flood warningstuff like that they they provide. There's
like different services that the state hasto provide. Mmm, got you So
that must be super heavy in likeSeattle or something like that. Yeah,
it's probably like a normal thing orpeople just have their sandbags already. Yeah,
that's very true. It's like again, isn't equipped for rain or anything
(01:07):
other than sunshine. We need morethan sunshine. We need sunshine, we
need heat. I am tired ofthis cold noways, Oh sorry, I
hate the summertime. I love goingout in the summertime, but I like,
I hate the heat. I'm nota I'm not a heat person.
Well, I just need it tobe like five degrees warmer so I don't
(01:30):
have to use the heater anymore.Yeah, that heater bill will look crazy.
Yeah, it looks neat. Youmean I hope this time around.
No, No, it's all good. It's all good. This past weekend
though, it was the Super Bowl, and although Jackie's family and my family
are both Niner fans, unfortunately theNiners freaking lost. Yes, but like
(01:53):
I would say, majority of myfamily's Niners fans. And then there's like
random other like yeah, my dad'sa Rams fan, my brother's an Eagles
fan, my sister in laws aSeahawks fan, my uncle is a Cowboys
fan. That's why it was.It was so random. It was a
very random party to go to,just because there were so many jerseys there.
(02:15):
Yeah, and I think one ofmy other uncles is a Bears fan,
like a Cincinnati Bears fan Bears,Yeah, uncle Troy, Okay,
well the other are the Bears areBrowns? I don't know, I can't
remember. Yeah, one of thoseteams. But regardless, you know,
it was crazy because you know,I'm from the Bay, so I did
want the Niners to win. Iwill say, though, I am a
(02:36):
bandwagon Niners fan, Like I don'treally be watching football like that in general,
but whenever the Niners go crazy,you know, I'm obviously just for
the Bay. At least he admitsit. Yeah, so yeah, there's
that. Yeah, I gotta saythat, right. But I mean,
I think this year with football wassuch a weird year. Why because like
(02:57):
there's just so much going on inthe NFL that's like it's good and bad,
and then like there's stuff that likepeople are mixed about, like you
know, like Taylor Swift is sucha big topic in the NFL, which
is a crazy statement to say.Yeah, and it's because she's dating Travis
Kelcey. Is Benny biting He's justlooking Okay, no, he's biting.
(03:23):
But it's because, like you know, like I said, Taylor Swift is
dating Travis Kelcey, And I thinkso many people are so harsh to her
and it's really not her fault,Like I don't care, Like I know
there's gonna be people that say,like, oh, well, they don't
have to show her as much,and da da, It's not like she's
(03:44):
sign a contract with the NFL sayinglike, if I go to a game,
you guys have to show me xamount of times. That's not it.
It really isn't. And she's literallyjust being a supportive girlfriend, like
she can't help it that she's oneof the big pop stars in the world,
like she regardless if you like hermusic or not, you gotta respect
(04:06):
the fact that she is one ofthe biggest like people, artists, pop
stars, celebrities out there. Well, didn't you have like a post on
your ig that yeah, Like soeveryone was complaining. I mean they've been
complaining every time Taylor Swift goes tolike a super or a football game.
But for the Super Bowl, theyshowed her twelve times on screen in a
(04:30):
span of four hours. They onlyshowed her showed her for a total of
fifty three seconds, and people werestill bitching and complaining, And I'm just
like, this is just people justhating on a woman at this point,
Like that's literally what it is.And I don't understand it. I don't
get it. And it's so weirdto me that when even like women talk
(04:54):
bad about her. Yeah, it'sso weird to me. But yeah,
I mean I think that's the weirdthing for sure, just because, like
I mean, I know what theNFL is doing at the end of the
day, right, and I'm sureeverybody does. It's a marketing tactic.
You get Taylor Swift on camera everyso often, then you're gonna get more
of Taylor Swift's fans like either watchingthe games or going to the games,
which essentially means more money for theNFL. Now, my thing is like
(05:18):
when it comes to like guys talkingdown about like Taylor Swift, it's like,
well, why didn't you want yourgirl to like watch the football game?
Which, yeah, and there wasa commercial of like there was a
commercial that showed it when it wasa Setophil commercial, which is a face
(05:39):
wash. Yeah, but it wasa commercial of how like daughters actually started
watching football games with their dads moreand it was because of Taylor Swift,
Like it was. It didn't neverset her name in it, but they
had like you know, hints hereand there, like eggs of like the
bracelets that you know, people wouldtake to her, the friendship blasts that
people would take to her concerts andstuff like that, and it was a
(06:01):
red jersey that they were wearing,and it was just like, okay,
yeah, we know what it ispretty obvious. Yeah, and I think
that was a really beautiful commercial.Now there is some like, I guess
controversy with that commercial because I guessSeto Phil took that storyline from a TikTok
creator. Oh okay, yeah,so a TikTok creator. She actually her
(06:23):
page recently started becoming like a storyand her life with her dad now that
Taylor Swift has been in the NFL, She's like, now I watch football
games with my dad. Now,I you know, I'm involved in this
and I may not know everything,but I'm learning, you know. And
I guess set of Phil probably sawthat and they took her storyline without like
(06:46):
here we go big companies, bigcompanies taking ideas from the small creators once
again. Later, yeah, it'spretty insane, but I think seta Phil
like actually made a statement on thatand like their care stuff on that end,
they should have gave her some breador they should have gave her some
extra set of film. I'm sick. But at the end of the day
though, still like Taylor Swift isnot the the person making these decisions like
(07:11):
let her be. Everyone's like,oh, well, why don't we get
to see like the other players families, And it's like, y'all got pissed
when you would see Patrick Mahomes's wifeor his brother. You know, his
brother, I kind of understand,but his wife, Yeah, yeah,
we everyone knows Mama Kelse like she'sshe's a great person, and we see
her on this screen. We likeliterally see Travis Kelsey's and Jason Kelsey's podcast
(07:38):
too, like clips of it.And then there's the forty nine ers player,
his wife Chris. It's so funnybecause I know her name, but
I don't know his name. I'mfucking sick. Who her name is?
Christian Yuschev. I think that's howyou say it, but I know how
to spell it because he said itin a video one time. It's j
U s. And then it's like, oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
(08:00):
uh cat yellow kit yell cat,yellow cat like something. Memory how to
spell his name based off of likethat way, Yeah, well that's how
he said it. He's like he'slike, oh, like, how do
you spell your last name? Andhe's like ja us and then he goes
cat yellow kidding, No, catyellow cat, zebra kitten. It's like,
yeah, no, it's used don'tkill me, it's used check anyway.
(08:24):
I like people again football, butagain, people know his wife because
she started making clothes out of likejerseys. Yeah, I remember, you
show me that. Yeah, andshe makes her game day outfits and she's
an incredible fashion designer. But like, so people have no problem with that.
(08:46):
But then when it comes to TayorSwift, everyone just wants to hate
on her and it's not like cool. It really isn't. Yeah. I
mean I think everybody just kind ofneeds to chill and just understand that.
Like, I mean, I thinkTaylor Swift is actually good for the NFL.
I mean, it got Joe Quidto talk about some jokes. Yeah
you know what I'm saying. Itgot what's his name, who's ever know?
(09:07):
You got Trevor Noah talking about somejokes and like, yo, you
look but yeah, and so likeand at the end of the day,
it does get people involved because it'slike when you know, I have a
niece and a nephew. Jackie alSaw is a niece, and like,
if it takes a Taylor Swift toget them involved in the things that we
love, then like so be it. Yeah, and like at the end
(09:28):
of the day, too, thereare This was the most streamed NF Super
Bowl ever. Yeah, with overlike one hundred and thirty four million viewers.
Yeah, for sure, you can'ttell me that Taylor Swift didn't have
something to do with that. Yeah, Like the NFL and CBS for the
Super Bowl, they knew what probablyhalf like fifty percent if not more of
(09:54):
their viewers were there to see notonly just the football game. I get
it, but but they know thatthere's little girls or there's older women that
like want to see Taylor Swift's reactions, so they're gonna feed to that.
But it was a total of fiftythree seconds in a four hour span,
Like, stop bitching about it.Yeah, it was funny because like I
(10:16):
even think, you know, evenIce Spice was in that sweet with Taylor
Swift. And I saw your cousins, like your thirteen fourteen year old cousins,
girl cousins, like you know,they were like little Oh my god,
Ice Spice is watching the Super BowlTaylor Swift. It's like, okay,
now they're more involved, when youknow, at some point they probably
weren't as involved because you know,their dad probably just told them like,
(10:37):
hey, like we're gonna watch thisfucking game. You're gonna wear this jersey.
Yeah, Like I I there aresome of my cousins you know that
were like excited to see the celebritiesthat were on there. And I'm I'm
one of those people too. Yeah, I'm one of those people that I
watch sports. I watch a footballgame, you know, but I'm really
there to see it for who isthere? Who's the like who's who of
(11:00):
like you know, watching the game. But now when it comes to baseball
games, I don't really care.But like I actually really love baseball.
Yeah, but football, like I'mokay. Like the other day, we
went to a Clippers game and Iwas more excited to see Travis Scott on
the big screen, and who wassitting next to him was Michael Rubin.
Like I was like, oh mygod, like that and whow. I'm
(11:22):
like, I don't know who thefuck she's talking about, Michael Rubin.
That's the guy who throws like theall white Michael Rubin parties, like that's
where every A list celebrity is at. Like and by all white, she
means like all white dressed, yeah, like all white like attire. Yeah,
but like that's like that's the guy. He's a CEO fanatics, Like
I am interested in the entertainment aspectof the games, you know, and
(11:46):
little do fucking people know that thatthere is so much entertainment that happens during
professional sports games. Yeah, Imean, and I'm speaking as an inner
teament host for a sports team fora major sports organization, Like I don't
I don't think people understand. It'slike it's not just the game, there's
(12:09):
so much more. Your favorite playersare getting visited by celebrities in their in
their locker rooms, right before thegame, right after the game, Like,
so fuck off. Firstly, ifyou don't like Taylor Swift being shown,
because guess what your favorite player wantsto meet her? Yeah exactly,
Shaq literally said, like at theSuper Bowl he prior to it, he
(12:33):
said, I want to meet TaylorSwift and take a picture with her because
I want to shake the hand ofgreatness. Like that's shack like you know,
yeah, no, I totally getthat. And you know, I
feel like if you're not even talkingfrom a like celebrity standpoint, like let's
say you're just really like gung hoon, like, oh, Taylor Swift
(12:54):
is Taylor Swift? That there areso many different aspects about you know,
the game itself now and the playerswithin the game that just make you know,
major league sports like that much moreenjoyable. And it personally makes me
a fan of like certain people.Right. So for instance, like one
(13:15):
of the winners of the Super Bowl, like he's on the Chiefs, his
name is Nico Remigio. Shout outto him, and he's Filipino. Yeah,
And I literally wouldn't have known thatif it wasn't for like him really
repping like his Filipino pride. Yeah. And so the thing that really got
me though, like again, youknow, I'm for the Bay always,
(13:35):
but I'm even more so for Filipinos, Right, so when it came to
him winning the Super Bowl, LikeI'd give a fuck about the Chiefs winning
the Super Bowl, but Nico wonthe Super Bowl and he has a ring
and he's Filipino, yeah, andhe and he reps it, like you
said, he reps it so hard. Yeah, And I'm looking at this
(13:56):
from a perspective of, oh cool, a Filipino won the fuck super Bowl.
That is so lit to me.And now I you know, I
followed him on Instagram like right away, and I was like, I'm legitimately
a fan of this guy. Now. The unfortunate part was that, you
know, one of these big Filipinoig companies, I believe it was Filipinos
(14:18):
from the six they had posted aboutit and they were giving him his praise,
but everyone in the comments was justso negative about it, talking about
like who, like did he evenplay? Yeah, like, oh,
they're talking about someone on like thirdor fourth string. And I'm just like
I'm looking through everyone's comments and I'mlike, well, I'm assuming everyone on
(14:41):
here is Filipino. Yeah, sowhat's with this Filipino on Filipino hate that
is going on right now? Yeah? And I saw something too, and
I think it was I may notbe Oh my god, uh huh no,
that's not gonna happen right now.Sorry, it may not be.
It may not be. Like Iwasn't sure if white people were hating on
(15:03):
him, and I, like yousaid, that he didn't really play as
much and maybe he was hurt.I'm not really sure about it. But
because again I don't follow the chiefslike that, but because you know,
you are Filipino and obviously this isMexicpino podcast, I'm like, I'm gonna
be aware of and get to knowthese people that are changing the Filipino community.
(15:26):
And I saw a post of his, or I saw a post that
was that was giving him praise.Yeah, and he said uh. In
the comments, he actually commented,he said, all love for my fellow
Filipinos. Don't knock me too muchfor smelling the roses. Gonna do everything
in my power to make sure I'mplaying in the big game next year.
(15:48):
Thanks for the support and for thatto be like you know, you said
that Filipino and Filipino like dis andeverything like that. That's really how it
is for like like Latinos too,Like we're so quick to just be like,
oh, you know what, likewe're gonna sho on him or we're
gonna shoot on her, and dada dah. And it's like we're Latinos
doing this shit too, Like youknow, instead of supporting each other,
(16:11):
we're breaking down each other, like, Yeah, why are we gonna trash
talk our own people when they're whenwe're doing something great, when we're trying
to put our people on the map, like that shit isn't and especially when
there aren't too much of us,And you know, I'll bring it back
to the NFL specifically. There aren'ttoo many Latinos or Filipinos in the NFL
(16:33):
specifically, you know, And I'msure there's a lot more pride that goes
on when it comes to like theMLB, because there's a lot of Latino
players who play in the MLB.Yeah, but NFL specifically, it's like
I remember Jackie mentioning to me like, oh, there's a player on I
believe it was the Chiefs who isno on the Niners, who's Dominican.
Yeah, he was a Dominican orPuerto Rican. I can't remember. Yeah,
(16:56):
yeah, excuse me, but youknow I saw that and I was
like, oh shit, like there'sa Latino. Like, you know,
primarily, the NFL is a African, American and white space and that's totally
fine. And we can't forget aboutthe Hawaiians, them Hawaiian and the Hawaiians
islands, the Islanders go fucking crazylike the Hawaiians. Some omens like y'all
(17:18):
fucking hold that ship down, y'all, y'all hold down that line and ship
like that. No, but forreal, Like so when I see a
Latino or like a Latino last name, I'm like, damn, is he
half? Is he full? Likeregardless, Like that's fucking cool, Like
uh uh juant Toscano Anderson, Ohyeah, j T A j T A
(17:41):
fuck. I wanted to get oneof his Laker jerseys. Granted he's not
with the Lakers anymore. I wantedto get a Laker jersey of his because
I was like, bro, he'shalf Mexican. That ship is so cool
and I and he was the firstlike Mexican on the Lakers, and that's
so cool to me, Like,especially in the city of our that's like
the moment where we have to likefucking just be about our people and bring
(18:06):
each other up instead of tearing eachother down because that shit is not cool.
And then we go on to say, like on social media like oh
and it's it's the same thing aslike women supporting women, women empowerment type
shit. You know, like alot of people want to to front on
those things and be like, ohyeah, like I support women and women
(18:27):
empowerment, empowered women, empower womentype shit. But little do you do
you know that those women that saythat shit are the ones that will talk
shit about other women. And Iknow a few. I know a fucking
few. And it's the same thingwith Latinos. It's the same thing with
Filipinos that you know we've been seeingtime and time again. Why can't we
(18:49):
just fucking be happy for each other, support each other, and be grateful
and thankful to those that are leadinga pathway to these different ass careers that
we normally don't do exactly because youknow what I saw when I saw,
you know, Nico's video posting onthe internet, I was like, you
know what, I'm past my primeto ever start playing football. But if
(19:14):
you're like a fourteen fifteen year oldkid, Filipino kid, and you're thinking
about playing football, you could lookat Nico and be like, oh,
well, shoot, if Nico becamelike a Super Bowl champion, even you
know, even though he didn't play, it's all good, but he's on
the team he won a super Bowlchampionship, I could do that too,
(19:34):
Like why are we going to downplaythe fact that there is a Filipino,
there is a Hispanic Latino in theNFL, and like we're not praising that
enough. And you know what,I do want to give flowers to Cameron
by them too. Who the vikingsbecause he also is half Filipino I think
or he's full Filipino, I'm notsure. And his story of like getting
(19:59):
his wife over here from the Philippineswas one of the biggest stories in the
NFL this year. Yeah, hiswife was in the Philippines, she was
working on his visa, and postgame interview, he's all like, yo,
my wife is trying to work onher visa to get over here.
So if anybody like has any connections, let me know. And his wife
got here and it was such abeautiful story. Yeah, and he's so
proud of his Filipino heritage. He'sproud of his wife for being Filipino.
(20:22):
Like that shit is so cool.Like so it's okay, It's okay that
everyone supported that storyline because he's anactive, active player on the field.
But when it comes to Nico Remigio, like, oh, we're gonna back
up because he didn't play in thepreseason, he was a fucking beast.
(20:42):
When he's fully healthy, he's gonnabe a fucking beast. Be fucking prideful.
Don't pick and choose when you wantto be like, oh, we
take this Filipino and we're not gonnatake that Filipino. That shit's not cool,
because you know what's cool about bothof them too, is like you
know, if you go on likeeither of their page, and especially like
Cameron Binom's page, like there's Filipinoflags all over their freaking story, which
(21:06):
is a lot more than what alot of people can say. Like,
you know, they are on oneof the biggest platforms in the world,
which is the NFL, and thefact that they put a representation for Filipinos
like so hard, whether it beon their ig personal life or you never
even know what they could be doinglike within like the inner circles of their
(21:29):
team. I mean they could dobe They could be doing something as simple
as like hey, bro, liketrysa mupia. For example. I think
Cameron Binum he actually went back tothe Philippines and did like some stuff over
there, some like yeah, andyou know Nico Remigio, like you said,
like he there's you go on theirinstagrams and you see all that shit
(21:51):
of like being prideful of their heritage. Like Nico Remigio his picture, his
his portrait picture with the Vincent BartieTrophy, he's wearing a Filipino flag.
Yeah, he's repping that shit sohard. And like you said, a
kid who's twelve eleven, a Filipinokid is gonna see that and be like,
(22:11):
fuck, I could be a superBowl champion one day. Yeah,
exactly. I mean, I honestlyfeel the same way when it comes to
people like Jordan Clarkson or even likeJalen Green. Jordan Clarkson of the Utah
Jazz and the NBA and then JalenGreen of the Houston Rockets. Like I
mean, there's a funny meme that'sgoing around where both of them are just
kind of like talking to each other, right, and then someone dubbed it
(22:33):
to have them be speaking to Gallag. Yeah, now I'm over here like
this is hilarious, bro, becauseI'm sure they don't speak the way you
know, he didn't know what Imean, Like they don't have the accents
and everything like that. But youknow, knowing that Jordan Clarkson is Filipino.
Knowing that Jalen Green is Filipino,I'm not gonna lie. I wanted
both of them on my fantasy team, and Jalen Green is going crazy for
(22:57):
me on my fantasy so I'm notreally but you know, it's just a
simple fact that they're Filipino that makesme even more happy and more proud to
be like yo, like I wantthem on my team, Like I kind
of want to follow them a littlebit more because I just want to see
what they're gonna do. And bothof them are going crazy on their own
teams, respectively, and you know, if it comes down to Jordan Clarkson
(23:21):
like beating the Golden State Warriors orwhatever, or Jordan Clarkson winning a championship,
or Jalen Green winning a championship,like, I'm so with it.
Like I'm not fans of their teams. I am fans of them simply because
they are Filipino. Yeah, andyou just like you appreciate the fact that
they are accepting of their heritage,of their culture where their family is from.
(23:42):
You know, yeah, I thinkit's I think it's like again,
it's just a very toxic thing thatboth of our cultures do both of our
heritages. It's just a very outdatedlike way thinking. Yeah, yeah,
it's an outdated way of thinking,and we need to change like a lot
(24:03):
of shit about our cultures. Well, that's what I mean. That's the
first question. Like what is itthat we like do about it? Yeah,
I think like, well, forexample, like us, like this
next generation of Latinos and Asian Americansand Pacific Islanders, like it's our responsibility
to not do what our parents did. And just you know, we like
(24:27):
to trauma dump, we like tojoke about our traumas and shit like that,
and people are gonna be like,oh, well, you guys are
just soft. No, I'm notsoft. It's just that I realized that
the way that I grew up,in the way that I was put in
certain situations, I realized, like, that's not okay, Yeah, you
know, it wouldn't. I'm notgoing to be the type of parent to
(24:51):
finally understand my kid once my kidhas moved out of the house. I'm
going to understand my kid from dayone. And yes, my kid might
you know, annoy the fuck outof me, and they might do something
that I'm gonna want to strangle them, but I'm like, I'm not going
to ever do that, you know, like it's it's a toxic thing.
Like breaking those cycles of just fromthe basic things of learning to say sorry,
(25:18):
you know, learning to say orsaying sorry in Latino households is the
most difficult thing for Latino parents todo. Like yeah, I don't think
Latino parents actually ever say sorry,Like that's your parents have never said sorry
to you. Rarely they've said sorry, but not for like hell reacting okay,
(25:42):
okay, yeah, Like it's like, yeah, like if I were
to get in trouble for something andlike I know I didn't do something,
and I get yelled at and I'mlike scolded at, and then I it
ends up provinglater on that like ohshe was actually right. I don't.
(26:03):
I don't get an apology. Ijust I'm like, all right, well,
hopefully they see it. Hopefully theysee that they were wrong, you
know, you know Latino's parent aLatino parents favorite way of saying sorry without
saying sorry is just cutting up fruitand giving it to you or are you
hungry, like like yeah, letme let me make it up to you.
(26:26):
There's been days where like my mom, and I love my mom,
and our relationship has gotten so muchbetter the past year. But there was
times when I was younger when mymom would not talk to me for like
days. Yeah, Like there wasdays where my mom would give me the
silent treatment, and then it wasn'tuntil like she was cooking or she needed
(26:47):
something and she was just like,can you help me with this? Or
like I would have to go.I would go and be like Mom,
like, I'm sorry, even thoughlike sometimes I wasn't the wrong. Yeah,
yeah, yeah, even though youwere the one who shouldn't have even
been sorry in the first place.So freaking hard for Latino parents say sorry.
And I've accepted that. I nowmy parents say I'm sorry more and
(27:10):
they're just more understanding of things.So I can't really like blame them for
the stuff that they do now.Yeah, yeah, I can only forgive
the thing, forgive some of thestuff they said in the past. Yeah,
but they've never said I'm sorry.Like my twenty second birthday, my
first birthday with you, they neversaid sorry about that shit. Oh that's
(27:30):
crazy. They never said sorry.We just moved on. Yeah, I
mean, it's it's very similar tohow like Filipino households are like the parents
will never say sorry in a Filipinohousehold, Like there will be times where
I know my parents are wrong andI kind of just you know, I've
I've let it off. I'm justlike, you know what you could think
(27:52):
the way you're thinking, and it'sall good with me. And then the
next thing, you know, it'sthe same thing. It's like we're gonna
have dinner and then we're just gonnaend up talking about something completely different from
like anything that happened. Yeah,And you know, unfortunately, I feel
like it trickled down to me whereI'm just like okay, cool, Like
you know, I kind of liketo like I do end up saying sorry
anyway. But you know, I'mthe type of persons who are like I
(28:17):
would rather like make it up toyou rather than like say sorry to begin
with. But I've done a waybetter job. It's saying sorry first and
then making it up to you afterwards. See that's the thing, Like we
say sorry as the kids m whenwe're not the ones that need to be
sorry. We're not the ones thatneed to be sorry. And I'm just
(28:41):
gonna say that, like we're notthe ones, I need to be sorry
all the freaking time, like ourparents. Hopefully you're like people's parents,
you know, grow out of that. I know my parents did. But
it's like, so it's such atoxic like way to grow up, like
(29:02):
thinking it's almost and I know peopleare gonna get like, oh my gosh,
she's just like so soft blah blahblah. But like it's almost in
the sense like gaslighting your kid,like to think that they're the one that
is wrong all the time. They'rethe problem. And honestly, that's how
it's affected me down the line nowthat I think about it now, it's
affected me down the line of likerelationships and and just the way that I
(29:26):
go about certain things. If Ilike her a person because of something that
I truly believe in, I'm like, fuck, you know what, Like
I'm sorry, Like but I don'tneed to be sorry about certain things,
you know. But it's just instilledin me that, like, well,
you have to be the one tosay I'm sorry, because they're not going
to. Well that's why I noted. I mean I noticed it within our
relationship, Like y'all, Jackie wouldsay sorry over the simplest things and I'd
(29:49):
actually get kind of annoyed. I'djust be like, why the fuck are
you even saying sorry? Like there'sno point in being sorry about, like,
I don't know, leaving a shirton the on the couch. Yeah,
Like, there's literally no point insaying sorry. Just pick up the
shirt and go do it. Youdon't have to say sorry. And it's
(30:11):
so weird that you say that,Like, you know, it's unfortunate because
if that's how you are raised,just to constantly say I'm sorry, that
means you constantly feel like it isyour fault. And then you translate that
to the real world, that isjust that much more aggressive than like,
you know, your own household.It's like you feel sorry over like the
stupidest things that aren't even like outin your control. Yeah, it's it's
(30:37):
just a lot to kind of thinkabout and actually really process as you get
older, of like, Okay,how can I navigate around my parents?
How can I, you know,say something in a way without them being
offended? And honestly, that's probablywhy like a lot of Latino like kids
in our generation and adults in ourin our generation and just don't really want
(31:02):
to have relationships with their parents anymore. You know, Yeah, that's very
true. It's just a toxic cyclethat unfortunately some parents, older Latino parents
don't get out of, you know, I think because they never gotten I'm
sorry when they were kids. MI hear that they see cycles that are
going to keep going until one ofthem, one of these generations breaks the
(31:25):
cycle. That's weird because I dothink like in Filipino Households though, like
you know how the sorry is kindof like made up through like actions rather
than like actually speaking, you know, like I've said time and time throughout
like any number one of these episodes, like Filipinos, for the most part,
we're lazy when it comes to talking, Like we'll point with our mouth
just like like just so that wedon't have to say anything. And so
(31:48):
my point being is that like we'dmuch rather like do it in action,
and it's kind of like accepted that, like whatever the action is, like
whether it be like cooking for someoneor taking out the trash or you know,
like any one of these household chores, that's already unanimously accepted as the
sorry. And you know, Ifeel like Filipino Households aren't as broken as
(32:12):
like you're saying, like Latino householdscan get to and you know, I
still do think that's a very unfortunatething if that is the case. Yeah,
I mean everyone has their different experiences, you know, with growing up
and how Latino households are, howAsian and Pacific islander households are. Everyone
(32:34):
has their own different experiences growing up, how their parents are, so some
people may have it better than thenext person, you know, And luckily
I appreciate everything my parents have everdone for me. Are there things that
I wish I could have changed growingup and the way that we've we communicated
each other, Yeah, thousand percent. But I can only like forgive them
(33:00):
and move past it. And nowwith you know, the next generation that
we bring, you know, Ican only hope that they'll be more understanding
when it comes to like our kids. Yeah, no, I hear that,
and I've seen it, like myparents, this is the most fucked
(33:23):
up thing. But like Latino parentsforget everything they ever did to you,
like once they get grandkids. Yeah, well, like all of a sudden
they got McDonald's money, don't wedon't, Like all of a sudden they
grant everything in the freaking world,but when it came to you as their
(33:44):
child, it was like no,you know, you know, ask for
it again. You know what's sofunny is that like being in a Filipino
household. Like, it's funny youmentioned McDonald's because my grandpa, every single
morning he would go to McDonald's,which was down the street from his house,
like literally a block or two away, and he would get me the
he'd give me the pancakes, thehot cakes, I think, like bacon,
(34:07):
and like you know, like thesausage, right, and I'd be
like I felt a little bit spoiled. I'm like, damn, like this
is a dope ass breakfast to have, like every time I'm over at my
grandpa's house, like this is cool, right yeah. And the funny thing
is my Filipino mom will never everlet this go. But she'll always be
like, man, you guys thinkyou guys have it bad at certain points,
(34:29):
you guys don't even realize like whatI had to go through when Grandma
and Grandpa like wouldn't even let meout the house. I couldn't go to
prom I couldn't do this with myfriends. I had to be home at
like eight, Like so the factthat even I'm letting you out until like
nine o'clock with like no repercussions Likethat says a lot. And then meanwhile,
(34:49):
when my grandparents should you know,my grandparents give me McDonald's for breakfast,
I'm over here, like, nah, you're tripping. Grandpa's hella cool,
Grandpa's hella cool. My grandparents.So I'm the first girl in my
family of like grandkids and nieces andnephews. Yeah, I was the first
girl. So I was spoiled theheck out of everyone. Like my aunts,
(35:14):
they were like they would always buyme clothes. My grandpa and my
grandma's like they would like they wouldlike, oh be like oh, like
Mihita, you know, like Iwas. I was the golden child because
I was a girl. You hearthat, Jacob, she was the golden
child. I was, and heknows it. He knows it anyway,
(35:34):
But yeah, it was. Itwas just funny like growing up because I
was like, oh, my god, my grandma and grandpa and my other
grandma, they're like so nice.They're the best people ever. They're the
best people on this earth, andyou know, they can never do no
wrong. And then as I gotolder, my mom was like, your
grandpa used to hit me with acable, like, and then my other
aund would be like, you know, Grandpa. I would tell him that
(35:55):
I want to go to a party. He would say it's six o'clock.
I want you back home by eight, and she's like, Dad, the
party doesn't even start to He's like, take it or leave it, you
know, And I was just like, you know, man, my grandfa
never like, yeah, it's notmy grandfather, and like, is damn
near? Like grandparents, they endup having that second wind and they're just
(36:15):
like, you know what, likeI low key fucked up on my first
round of kids, so I'm gonnamake it up with my grandkids. You
know. What it probably is too, is that they can return these kids
their grandkids. Like they'd be like, oh, yeah, this is your
child, so they don't got tostay here, Like, oh that's true.
I mean I think I think wewere over at like we all at
your parents' house the other day,and then they ended up giving isla like
(36:37):
some what do you call it,like some chocolate raisins or something, and
then you're chocolate almonds, Yeah,chocolate almonds. And then I just saw
your dad just be like like like, don't tell them, and I'm just
like, he's not a bitch,dude, Like like she's gonna go back
home with her bear and she's like, yeah, I'm not gonna stay with
me. Yeah. I think that'sso funny. And like I think being
(37:00):
grandparent, like from my like,seeing my parents become grandparents is the most
beautiful thing, Like they just Iguess now I can see Oh my god,
oh why am I gonna get emotionalover this? I can see like
a love that my parents have thatI probably didn't see and didn't appreciate it
(37:21):
when I was a kid because Iwas their kid. Yeah yeah, yeah,
And now I get to see thembe like so like loving and I
can't wait for them to be likethat with our kids. So I wonder
if like they were actually like that, but you just didn't see it.
No, I got yelled at andthey don't yell at my knee. So
well, shout out to the grandkidsfor basically never getting shit from their grandparents.
(37:44):
Yeah. Literally, Oh my gosh, that's so like emotional with the
freak. Well, Jackie's actually crying, ladies and gentlemen, if you're not
listening, I'm just tearing up becausethat was so like sweet that I just
said that. And I just seemy parents in a different light now,
Yeah, oh yeah, I havebeen, not just in this very moment,
but like I have been seeing themin a different light. Yeah for
(38:05):
sure. Well, yeah, we'regonna pivot and talk about this fucking Asian
Costco right now, because did y'allknow that there is literally an Asian Costco
over here in southern California. Yeah, so apparently it's like this is this
is this new Asian Costco. Iwant to look up the name of it
real quick so that way I don'tlike mess up. I might butcher the
name though, but it's in acity of industry. I think, oh
(38:31):
my gosh, what the heck?Uh? They literally just opened like a
month ago, and I really wantto go because I really want to go
because I told this Taniko. Andthis is not an ad, by the
way, this is not a sponsorship. We're just literally talking about it because
we're so excited he could buy likewholesale items or individual items at that Asian
(38:51):
Costco now. And I'm so excitedbecause I saw on one of their reels
on Instagram that you can buy unpeeledgarlic. That's wild. It's actually called
Resco. Yeah, I just foundit. Yeah, see Jackie's looking on
TikTok. I'm just looking on Googlea Google search. I just oh,
(39:12):
I'm looking on on Instagram. It'sI'm will follow them. It's Rescal Food
and it's open Monday through Sunday fromeight am to a pm. And the
city in the City of Industry.It's so cool, like they have everything
you could possibly think of, likesauces, like packed food already. The
(39:35):
I mean they got the barbecue meaty'all. They have, Oh my gosh,
they have like all these high shoesand like candies like Asian candies.
They have like frozen dumplings and stufflike that. They have like they have
every literal Asian like of different likecountries like Asian foods that you could think
(39:57):
of like sauces and shit like that. I'm actually the didn't put it in
like Alhambra or something like that.Nah. City of Industry is a good
one. I mean City of Industrythat's like West Covina. That's where like
West Covina meets like La Puente andlike all that right there. Yeah,
it's it's a predominantly like Asian likeneighborhood over there too. City of Industry.
(40:19):
Yeah, City of Industry. It'sCity of Industry. It's so weird.
City of Industry, like if youknow City of Industry. I don't
like it's where. It's where likekind of like Hussy and the Highs up
went the West Covina. It's likeit's literally like right, it meets all
of those three well rather really weird. It's where the Tommies is. Well,
rather, I think it should havebeen in like West Covina because that's
just smack in the middle of whereall the Asians are. Really yeah,
(40:43):
that's true, but I think therethere probably wasn't enough space to accommodate.
And they have so many different ramans. I really want to go. They
have like they have so much Ireally want to go. I'm just looking
at all the sauces and literally it'skind of built like a Costco too.
They have like the drinks and stufflike that. That's so cool. Yeah,
well, shouts Toresco. We gottamake our way over there down just
once. I don't I don't knowif you have to have a membership or
(41:06):
I think that memberships are only liketwenty bucks a year. That's hella good.
Yeah, that's fucking sick. Butkeep it clean, y'all, keep
it like pure over there. Damn, the lines are long as fuck.
I was just looking at that rightnow. Oh my god, look at
that big piece of meat with that, and then you could buy also the

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
