One word? Give me your thoughts.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Terrifying?
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Oh, terrifying. So it gets really really scary. I'm only
at the part where they think that the mom is
like hurting the kids.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Oh no, it gets kicked up, so I need to stop.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
I need to keep watching it. We also have another

Oh my god, I just watched that too.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
There's like four episodes, four different stories. It's unbelievable. Oh

then there's a guy who's like horrible.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Mine wasn't on there, I know.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
Yes he did.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
I'm only a quarterway through sods he did.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
It got very kind of.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
From on what like Bratt Tomatoes and stuff. But if
you say it's terrifying, I'm excited.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
It was pretty.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Just as a reminder, Eric's little views on movies are
typically in verse, U two, thank you.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Just you're right, listen, eat me as much as I
love this man and as much as we have in common,
like are his movie?
Speaker 3 (06:15):
No, they seem to be in verse with society at
large and not just I know.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
No, Like sometimes you're like, oh my god, that movie
was so good. That Jennifer Lopez, that new Jennifer Lopez
movie was so cute.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
Listen, I don't know what you're talking about. But the
last few Jennifer Lopez movies have not been suck yet.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
Oh my goodness. I just remember probably like the first
couple of months I started the show, and we're talking
about this movie. The movie just came out. It was
called like hit Man's Bodyguard or something. Oh so I've
never seen a little bit of it, and it was
like awful, and it was so good.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
So good, I don't know, and so was the sequel.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
It's happened to me. This has happened to me many
many times. I get I know what you're saying. Yeah,
and then the New ninety Day premiered on Sunday night.
It's called Before the ninety Days, and we have a
whole awful Oh it's.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Exciting, oh terrible.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Okay, I agree with Eric on that one. Now there
we go.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
We're gonna call my mom and then I'm going to
read this story. But I'm going to read it to
her so I want her to get her take on
it because there's something I'm going to do after reading
the story and after a gift that I got. So
let me do this. Oh wait, I go right hair
bo Okay, here we are and it's on roadcaster. There
(07:28):
we go.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
She does not like being on the Arab but she's
so good.
Speaker 6 (07:35):
Hello Mama, Yeah, Hi Hi Mary, Hi, Hi Eric.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
How are you, my love?
Speaker 6 (07:43):
I'm fine? How are you good?
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Okay? So I'm going to read a story and then
I'm going to tell you why I'm so mad when
I was halfway home from your house because I forgot
to ask you something. Okay, oh oh. J simpsons cremated
remains have been turned into jewelry, and his lawyer says
(08:06):
that it was distributed among his four kids and they
all have now a piece of jewelry that contain his ashes.
That said, a woman that I'm doing a walk with
this weekend gave me this really cool bracelet and inside
the bracelet is sand red sand from like some different country.
(08:28):
It's this cool company. So, Mom, I forgot to ask
you for Dad's ashes because you said you have some
for me. Still I do, because I lost my bagfull
a long time ago, and that was I don't I
know all the moves.
Speaker 6 (08:43):
That I've made thinking about some kind of jewelry that
you can contain that in, but I can't. You know,
it's not very you don't see that anywhere.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
Well, I think what they do is they can make
it into like a like a stone, and you can
wear it is a ring, or you can wear it
like this heart that I have has the sand in it,
and maybe would that creepy? Is that creepy cool?
Speaker 6 (09:07):
I'm a kind of thinking of a heart that would
be cool.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Would you want a necklace, a ring or a bracelet?
Speaker 6 (09:16):
Well, I'm thinking about you, you guys, you and Jenny mostly, Well.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
I was thinking about the three of us because that's
how it goes. Yeah, so what do you want? I'll
order it through this company, but I'm gonna need to
get that. Oh can you mail ashes through the mail?
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Probably?
Speaker 5 (09:34):
Well, yeah you can't.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
Yeah, if they send them.
Speaker 6 (09:37):
To you, that's true, padded envelope.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
I probably just need the littlest bit and then I'll
have jewelry made for you know what when.
Speaker 5 (09:48):
When I go, because you know, I'm I'm probably going
to go before you, Okay, because of my advanced age,
I'm going to give you know, you can use mine.

Speaker 1 (15:40):
I have three recent acting auditions. One of them I
did with Evan and her boyfriend when they were here
and I had them help me read they Her boyfriend
was laughing so hard he could not breathe, and I
literally was doing the best job I could and they
(16:02):
were dying. Now this is the best take we got.
I think it's the first one, the one where I'm
stumbling to the couch. Okay, So the direction they give
you kind of direction on what they're looking for. They
give you a little bit of a backstory about what
character you're playing. So if this is the first one,
I'm thinking I'm playing like kind of a rough and
(16:25):
tumble friend who's there for her friend and who's a
little bit on the harder side and kind.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
Of from the wrong side of the track.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
No, oh, it's like my she's my goddaughter or something.
She's in the hospital and I'm like incensed and I
have to They wanted to see my physical comedy or
my physical illness in this act, and that's when the
laughing happened. So I'll let you know if I got
a call back on this one, because this one was

like a couple of weeks ago, ringing. I'm not going
to say anything yet. I want you to see them first,

got low self esteem, feeling sorry for you, beating yourself up.
Speaker 8 (21:03):
Oh stop it, who do you think you're talking to?
We do that? You do that often. I think I
like the validation I know too much, like an open book.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Then again, sometimes I don't know what you're gonna say.
I look at you and I get an empty page.
Maybe we're long lost twins.
Speaker 8 (21:34):
You never know. It's a small world.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Okay, critique thoughts, now, come on now, tell.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
Me, okay, the first one was better?
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Really I thought that one was better. Don't feel okay,
come on you that this is what I wanted a
freaking I'm about to give you some okay, trying to
count on yourself, and please tell me.
Speaker 3 (22:05):
I'm trying to figure out your other club, which may
be corrupting the one you sent me on. Now Okay, I.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Think tell me the just I know you'll be blunt
with me, but also don't be to me on purpose.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
I think the first one was better. I thought the
script was pretty awful, but I thought your delivery was okay.
The second one was. I think there are moments whe
you do Okay, I think again, the script is a
little weird.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Do I overact a little bit? Oh? Okay, I got
to tone it down a little bit.
Speaker 5 (22:39):
I would say you will by at least like especially
since you were stoned you were, I should have been
more chillen.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
I didn't buy the fact you were stone either, Okay,
but I don't know like it was. They weren't terrible,
They're fine, Okay. Second one had moments where I was like, okay,
I could see that, like that kind of feels real.
And then there are other moments from like and she's
acting again.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Okay. Now, if this one works, this one either has
Evan in the background reading mydlines or WHOI and stop
looking at your phone watch this all right?
Speaker 3 (23:06):
This is the last one.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
And this was filmed actually in my actual home, not
at work, where I shouldn't be doing these foditions, but
I do. After my shift. But I'm like alone and
I have peace and quiet. I can do these things. Sure,
it's worth giving it a shot, right absolutely, And all
these things come on backstage. Anybody can be on backstage.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
At Academy Awards, just within reach.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
That's not really one of my goals. Like I said,
on my bucket list, what is on our bucket list?
Speaker 2 (23:38):
It's my goal.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
I want to we want to be in a blockbuster film,
but we'll be dead bodies if we have to.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
We don't really care.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
I don't listen to hang a toe tag on that tho.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
I don't think it's gonna work.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
Oh no, well okay, then it's not gonna work. It's alright, No,
this one was the funniest one I believe.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Actually, maybe I can fix it if you guys, we
can back later.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Okay, So all right, let's talk about Is there anything
you want to talk about? Is there anything that's going
on in your life besides the Chris Hemsworth thing?
Speaker 3 (24:13):
That was enough that.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
What did you do on your day off? Did you
go did you sleep? Did you go shopping? Did you
I did get stuff done?
Speaker 2 (24:24):
I got dead all three?
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Have you ever been to all the yes? Is that
like a cult grocery store. It kind of makes creeps
me out.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
There's nothing there that you would recognize.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
But it's is it all all the like merchandise stuff?
Is it named? Is all this stuff just stuff?
Speaker 2 (24:43):
Brands that you've never heard of before?
Speaker 1 (24:44):
See, I won't be able to go there.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
No, No, all right, Well, well you know what these shoes?
Speaker 8 (24:50):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (24:50):
God, like he needs another pair of shoes. Eric, you
you know what I'm going to take. You're going to rehab.
You have a problem and you need to get help. Yes,
for shoes. What was that?
Speaker 3 (25:04):
I don't know that was your Okay, I think really
that Laura falling down?
Speaker 1 (25:07):
I don't know what that was.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
I thought we were having an earthquake. I was like, bye, I.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
Know we did something well down, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
It was like by everybody see you?
Speaker 3 (25:16):
All right?
Speaker 1 (25:16):
All right, okay, here we go, Oh, here we go. Okay,
so this is like my comedic shot. Here we go.
Speaker 8 (25:24):
I am so sorry that I'm laid.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
I had a stopping a gas and then traffic was
backed up, and then some douche nozzle was texting while driving.
Speaker 8 (25:34):
Ugly crying in the parking lot for twenty minutes. No,
maybe this is why I told her not to tell you.
I am her best friend.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
I should have been the first person that she told.
In fact, I should have been there holding her hand
when she was told. All I'm saying is you don't
handle Stuss very well.
Speaker 8 (25:57):
What about you? How you had this, kiddo?
Speaker 7 (26:01):
It is not the.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Mountain we conquered, but ourselves.
Speaker 7 (26:08):
Of course, you're handling this like a complete psycho.
Speaker 8 (26:14):
Hepatitis c. Thanks for that. Now everybody here thinks I'm
a crack hor Wow, is damn cheating on you? I
was sexually transmitted. You could remember my climbing accident in Peru.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
Uh, yeah, the one where I try to jump on
a plane right away, but it turns out you have
to wait three months to get a passport to get
over to that place.
Speaker 7 (26:44):
And god damn nine to eleven just keeps hitting. I
lost so much blood they needed to give me an
emergency transfusion.
Speaker 8 (26:53):
Apparently that's how I contracted it.
Speaker 9 (26:55):
The HEPSI going unchecked caused the cirrhosis, and essentially, no,
my liver is failing.
Speaker 7 (27:02):
You got a lawsuit on your hands. We will sue
the shit out of this hospital.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
The doctors, the nurses, the practitioners, the Peruvian dictator.
Speaker 8 (27:15):
Peru has a president, a woman. You do still have
health insurance?
Speaker 6 (27:20):
Right?
Speaker 3 (27:22):
When I switched to work from home, they made me
changed to a subcontractor.
Speaker 7 (27:26):
I lost my benefits.
Speaker 8 (27:27):
You've got to be kidding me. O. Dan wants us
to mortgage the house.
Speaker 7 (27:33):
Yes, yes, we'll mortgage the house.
Speaker 8 (27:38):
I can sell my car.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
We can do a fundraisor remember when we booked that
trip to Cabo? How we got there by slinging those
jello shots at clubs downtown.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Uh, this is what it sounds like.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
Every month, do you pay your bad No, she isn't
acting in this.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Okay, so yeah, obviously that was Evan and then the
last part was my friend. But notice how Evan was
barely keeping because again another script that's not so great.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
But I've never heard the term douche nozzle.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
I know, well it was in the script.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
I had no idea what the hell was going on
the entire time.
Speaker 2 (28:19):
I didn't need there.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
Well, it was okay, it was I Okay. Out of
the three, which which role do I land?
Speaker 3 (28:27):
I think the first one's actually the best.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
I think when you get too high energy, yeah, you
get you overreact or.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
You over because you're not supposed to do that on film,
or like you're supposed to be more natural re acting.
I know. Okay, no good feedback, Okay, thank you. You
know what, I'm not going to say screwble for you guys.
But when I get my big shot and I'm in
Hollywood filming a movie for two months, right, I'm going
(28:57):
to be like I told you guys, and when just
a matter of time.
Speaker 3 (29:01):
And when that happens, you have earned that right until then,
I have earned the right to critique and make.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
And then when that happens, it will be air grimmer
after dark.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Oh can't wait to scrub that name off the thing.
Speaker 5 (29:15):
I'll just put black tape over it during during your
hiatus from the podcast.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
Okay, now it's time for our special guest, Gary Bell.
Come have a seat on the hot seat. Hi Gary,
put your headphones on. Hi Gary. Oh oh hey.
Speaker 5 (29:29):
Out Oh now he decides it. Come here, el.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Elvis.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
He's got a bag of treats.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
Elvis, get over here, little Brad.
Speaker 5 (29:41):
What are you doing?
Speaker 3 (29:43):
Oh well, what's the matter?
Speaker 1 (29:45):
I don't know, dogs, what are you gonna do? So?
Gary is here talking about something that Eric brought up
last week A very important I guess you want to
say it's not fundraising, it's more like supply gathering, right or.
Speaker 2 (30:02):
Tell us like yes.
Speaker 9 (30:04):
So it's very interesting because I I've been working on
this and I've had to realize that you have to
say philanthropy because it's not a nonprofit.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
There you go, I know there.
Speaker 9 (30:18):
Okay, So yeah, it's very interesting because it's not a nonprofit.
So I have to say philanthropy because nonprofit work is
tax related in people donating and they get a tax.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
Benekay, well, first of all, who are you and why
are you? Did you create this or develop it?
Speaker 2 (30:39):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (30:39):
And what is it?
Speaker 2 (30:41):
It's kind of a wild story.
Speaker 9 (30:43):
So I recently became a member of the University Club,
which is in downtown San Diego.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
Okay, wow, that's fancy. That's a big deal.
Speaker 9 (30:56):
Yeah, it was very It was a big shock to
me because I didn't I've never been a part of
a private club, and I actually wanted to do it
to become better at networking and have more opportunities, and
because I do massage therapy and I do art, and
so I thought it'd be great. Well, as soon as
I got connected to the club, I was like, oh
(31:16):
my gosh, there's so many resources here, and there's so
many people that actually care. You kind of think is
just sort of bougie and people are like, you can't
sit with us, very mean girl style, But it turned out.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
That people are really great.
Speaker 9 (31:34):
There's yeah, there's a really great atmosphere there. Ever since
COVID hit, they've really changed things up. It's become more diverse,
and so I just felt at home. And it was
really weird because I thought i'd have this feeling that
I didn't belong there. So it's been a really great ride.
I've only been a member for a couple months, but
(31:56):
I saw all the opportunity and I saw the way
that people want help, and I was like, well, I've
been wanting to do philanthropy work for years and I
thought I'd have to have like millions dollars to do this,
and I'm like, well, let's.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Make it happen. So what I ended up doing.
Speaker 9 (32:11):
Is I talked to the LGBT Center and they're housing
insecured youth actually need resources in the form of hygiene resources,
and so it's like your basic like toothpaste and toothbrush
and deodorant and lip balm, specifically with SBF if they're
(32:32):
outside a lot.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
Uh.
Speaker 9 (32:34):
They asked for blankets because they have people who are
sleeping on the street and they just want a blanket
so they have something more comfortable.
Speaker 2 (32:41):
To sleep on.
Speaker 5 (32:43):
I mean, just really like basic human.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
Supplies, tampons, all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
Yeah, we got them.
Speaker 9 (32:50):
We got them a ton of pads already because I
want to make sure I got that in their hands
right away. And then we're gonna what we're gonna do
is putting together all these supplies into the these bags.
So we're I'm currently collecting the supplies and then with
the help of the University Club, I'm getting people together
(33:12):
because I'm trying to create a committee.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
It's all happening very quickly, so I'm very excited.
Speaker 9 (33:19):
But what we're going to do is for an event,
We're going to put all those together in bags and
then I can deliver them to the university to the
center both in hillcrest On University and then also the
one in North County.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
So it's very exciting.
Speaker 9 (33:36):
People have been really responding well to it and really
wanted to help, and we've got lots of great things
coming in.
Speaker 5 (33:43):
I just want to get more so that they.
Speaker 1 (33:45):
What is your goal? When is your goal date to
get these delivered? Or like what what you want to collect.
Speaker 5 (33:51):
Them all by September sixteenth?
Speaker 9 (33:54):
Okay, because I want to do this right, and so
I want to make sure that I have all the
supplies early and then I can make sure that when
we put them together, we have all the supplies we need.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
And you made it really easy, yes, because you just
created an Amazon list.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (34:10):
It's really wonderful because people are also seeing that they
can make a difference by actually giving some like hard product,
like instead of oh, here's a dollar, we're like, oh,
that's so cool. I'm giving these people, you know, some toothbrushes,
Like this feels really good and this is a great
way for me to contribute. And people have been much
(34:30):
more willing to contribute because they feel like they're connected
to it.
Speaker 1 (34:35):
And so that's what we have on our website is
the link to the Amazon page.
Speaker 5 (34:41):
Yes, it's Amazon Registry list.
Speaker 1 (34:43):
Okay, and it's super easy. It's all right there. It's
exactly what is needed.
Speaker 9 (34:49):
Just click on what you want and it'll throw it
in your cart and then the default address will just
go right to me, I'm collecting the supplies and we'll
put them together.
Speaker 1 (34:58):
Oh my gosh, that's just that's so great of you.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
It's awesome.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
Now, I don't know if this is an appropriate question
to ask, but I've always been curious, like, what kind
of funds does it take to become a member of
the university club? Is it something that is like like
really you need to say for no, Wow, this.
Speaker 2 (35:23):
Is totally appropriate.
Speaker 9 (35:24):
Actually, it's super fascinating because I was talking to a
friend of mine who lives in La Joya, and I
was talking to him about how I became a member
of this private club and I was just like, wow,
it's so fascinating, and he was just looking at me
like so skeptical, and he's like, what do you want?
And so then I explained how much it costs, and
he how much? How little it costs and he was like, oh, okay,
(35:48):
that makes sense because in La Joya he lives down
the street from a private club.
Speaker 5 (35:53):
And he said it's one hundred thousand dollars and it's
a thousand dollars a month after that.
Speaker 1 (36:01):
That's what I was figuring because it's so nice that
I've been I was lucky enough to be invited, and
in the Copley buildings are near there the top of
the Symphony the Civity Towers. Yes, and the view is
beautiful and the insight is gorgeous, and there's great food
and ambiance and and all sorts of people to network with.
Speaker 2 (36:21):
Mm hmm. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:22):
So it give me a price range between the give
it big ones. You don't have to give the exact number,
but like.
Speaker 5 (36:28):
I can get the exact number because it's public information.
It's not okay, okay, the price. So basically, the club
considers them to be inclusively exclusive, so they don't shun
people from wanting to come into the club. So they're
great with diversity, and I love that. I'm seeing more
and more of that.
Speaker 9 (36:47):
They just have sort of a privacy rather than a secrecy,
so it's sort of like you can come here, you
can get away from the chaos down on the street.
You can enjoy networking with people who are in the
same mentality as you. So it's fifty initiation fee, which
is a lot less expensive than one hundred thousand dollars.
That's and it shocks, and then it's three twenty a month. Wow,
(37:09):
three twenty.
Speaker 3 (37:10):
Yeah, not about it at all.
Speaker 1 (37:12):
Wow, you're and you're really right about the networking thing.
Like if this is something that you really want or
looking towards, this could be like a really great thing
to do.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
If you have a business, you can write it off
as marketing expense. Ooh yeah, which is what I'm doing.
Speaker 1 (37:25):
All right. It awesome.
Speaker 9 (37:27):
Honestly, if you're interested, go to the website and.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
Find out find Mitch. Just ask for Mitch.
Speaker 9 (37:36):
He's the director of membership and he's incredible. He is
so sharp, he's on it. He responds so quickly. He'll
get you what you need. And if you tell them
that Gary Bell sent you, they will take extra good
care of you.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
Oh You've already made that big of an impression.
Speaker 9 (37:52):
I'm very I'm very humbly appreciative to say that they
are glad that I'm there because of the vision that
I have with things like outreach and giving back to
the community. I have a lot of other big things
in the plans. So maybe I can come on and
talk about the HUTURE episode. But it has to do
(38:13):
with education grants.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
I love that idea, Like it just went off, no,
because like the light just sensed all my the student loans.
I have on my back. So grants for education is
that's huge, really big. Well, the link is on our website,
Laura Kane after Dark. Scroll down a little bit and
you'll see it. You can't miss it and do something
good for people that really need it. Just your basic needs,
(38:41):
I mean we take that for granted, but some people
really need things desperately and in that like what do
you have in that bag right there?
Speaker 5 (38:48):
So the bag has most importantly the basic supplies.
Speaker 3 (38:52):
So it has.
Speaker 9 (38:54):
Soap, shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, toothpaste, toothbrush, the SBF lip bomb.
For some reason, they get asked constantly for cup of
noodle soup, so they were really excited to have those.
Get some crackers in. It's a fun thing.
Speaker 1 (39:13):
I want to take this on my next vacation. I
was going to pack it because it has like all
the things.
Speaker 2 (39:17):
You need to go on vacation. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (39:20):
Does it stick this in my suitcase.
Speaker 2 (39:22):
When we go to a pump Springs?
Speaker 1 (39:23):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (39:24):
Oh yeah, I'm going later this week. You are, Yeah?
I go there monthly as a mental getaway.
Speaker 5 (39:29):
Where do you stay very very healthy?
Speaker 1 (39:31):
Do you stay at someone's house?
Speaker 9 (39:33):
It depends. Sometimes I'll stay at someone's house. Sometimes a hotel.
Speaker 1 (39:36):
What hotel do you recommend? Derek and I are going
to plan a trip for and I'll tell you why.
Speaker 9 (39:42):
Honestly, the Best Western in downtown Palm Springs does a
good job. It's very clean, okay, which I've worked in
hotels before. That's so important for me personally if I'm
going to stay somewhere, so cleanliness and it's very functional.
It doesn't have all the bells and whistles, but that
means that the price is really accessible.
Speaker 3 (40:00):
Okay.
Speaker 9 (40:00):
They have a pool, they have a hot tub. They
have breakfast complimentary in the morning. It got better with COVID.
The breakfast in the morning is wonderful. They do like
eggs and sausage and potatoes, and they have someone serve
them to you and then they have a whole.
Speaker 2 (40:15):
Rest of Laura is all about the sausage.
Speaker 1 (40:17):
Okay, Yeah, here's the ree Should I touch? Should I tell? Eric?
And I had or I had an idea and then
I floated it past Eric. He's like, totally, I go,
we need to plant. Okay, let me just put it
this way. I've been in a big, long stretch of
(40:40):
no lovers. If you were our big, big, big long
very longer than it ever has been dry spelled. Okay,
And I thought, and I'm like a little nervous to
get back out there because I kind of forgot what.
I have no game. I've no game left, like I
don't even know what to do anymore.
Speaker 9 (40:58):
With honestly, be yourself like that scares people, I think,
But calmly, I.
Speaker 3 (41:06):
Don't be yourself, I.
Speaker 9 (41:08):
Know exactly ill, it's yourself at ease, and don't give
too much information right off the ball like I always do,
like rehab.
Speaker 2 (41:18):
Well, because that wouldn't be at ease.
Speaker 5 (41:19):
And there's nothing shameful about parts of you.
Speaker 9 (41:23):
But but it makes sense that if you're talking to
someone else, if they divulge a lot of stuff, typically
they call it trauma dumping.
Speaker 2 (41:32):
So don't just don't take a dump on anybody, what
Gary saying.
Speaker 1 (41:36):
Okay, So I thought, Eric and I go to Palm
Springs for like two nights. He'd be my wingman and
I this is going to come off completely wrong, but
I kind of want to be I want to play
the field. Yeah, I want to.
Speaker 2 (41:56):
Palm Springs is really great for it to be honest for.
Speaker 1 (41:58):
A single great woman. Yes, okay, yes, okay, good because
we were worried, like with smart choices. But I kind
of want to make I want to start off and
just like go for it and get it over with
and like maybe do a one night stand and start
like there go the races. We're off to the races, people,
and I'll.
Speaker 2 (42:17):
Be sleeping in the car while you catch your put the.
Speaker 1 (42:19):
Sock on the good do.
Speaker 9 (42:21):
Honestly, Eric, there's so many things you could do besides
being in the car drag shows.
Speaker 2 (42:26):
Oh true. I could go to I could go to restaurants,
art galleries.
Speaker 5 (42:30):
I could go eat by myself in a restaurant while
you Oh you wouldn't be by yourself. It's Palm Springs.
You'd meet all kinds of release.
Speaker 2 (42:37):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (42:37):
So the goal is for me to break the dry
spell and then get it and then get.
Speaker 2 (42:44):
We're going to break that tumbleweed in half.
Speaker 9 (42:47):
I feel like I'm just promoting all these different companies.
But it's best Western Las Brisas in downtown Palm Springs.
They do an amazing job, so classy, so functional.
Speaker 2 (42:59):
The price is great.
Speaker 9 (43:00):
It's literally right in downtown across from the free parking garage,
so it's just like walkable to everything.
Speaker 5 (43:07):
Downtown and you know what, I'll bring my little mini
leaf blowers so we can knock out all the cobwebs
in the dust before you go out on the town.
Speaker 1 (43:16):
I know I'm gonna have to get prepared, prepared. Yes, Okay,
well I didn't think we were going to talk about that,
but there you go. Anyway, So I'm glad you okay
the idea.
Speaker 9 (43:27):
Yeah, I can literally give you a PDF of things
that you can do wall in Palm Springs.
Speaker 1 (43:31):
Okay, we're talking to the right person. Yeah, we're going
you're not just saying that you're gonna help your sister over.
Speaker 5 (43:38):

used to do the Oscars, and I went up to
her and I said, Hi, my name is Laura, and
people say I look like you all the time, and
she went.
Speaker 2 (02:04):

harsher than you. You have given me some good feeds.
You be honest, and don't be mean on purpose, or
don't be jealous because I'm so good. Happened, It might happen.

some shows. All the things I did this weekend concert, working,
going to my mom's Da da da da. I managed
(04:22):
to fit in some TV shows here and there. Yes,
did you watch Deliverance on Netflix? I'm only a quarterway through?
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Mm hm.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
In one word? Do you watch the whole thing?
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (04:40):
One word? Give me your thoughts.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Terrifying?
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Oh, terrifying. So it gets really really scary. I'm only
at the part where they think that the mom is
like hurting the kids.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Oh no, it gets kicked up, so I need to stop.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
I need to keep watching it. We also have another
episode of Chimp Crazy on tap. Did you watch it?
The third up? Was it? Is it good?
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Oh? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Oh god? The show is crezy. This is on HBO.
And then I watched something on Netflix. That is crazy.
It's called the worst X ever.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Oh my god, I just watched that too.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
There's like four episodes, four different stories. It's unbelievable. Oh
my god. There's like one chick who's a freak, and
then there's a guy who's like horrible.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Mine wasn't on there, I know.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Oh boy, yeah, we all go there. I don't know how.
I mean, god, I'll get in trouble. I don't know.
But yeah, And then you.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Said Deliverance is really good.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Yes he did.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
I'm only a quarterway through sods he did.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
It got very kind of.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
From on what like Bratt Tomatoes and stuff. But if
you say it's terrifying, I'm excited.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
It was pretty.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Just as a reminder, Eric's little views on movies are
typically in verse, U two, thank you.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Just you're right, listen, eat me as much as I
love this man and as much as we have in common,
like are his movie?
Speaker 3 (06:15):
No, they seem to be in verse with society at
large and not just I know.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
No, Like sometimes you're like, oh my god, that movie
was so good. That Jennifer Lopez, that new Jennifer Lopez
movie was so cute.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
Listen, I don't know what you're talking about. But the
last few Jennifer Lopez movies have not been suck yet.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
Oh my goodness. I just remember probably like the first
couple of months I started the show, and we're talking
about this movie. The movie just came out. It was
called like hit Man's Bodyguard or something. Oh so I've
never seen a little bit of it, and it was
like awful, and it was so good.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
So good, I don't know, and so was the sequel.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
It's happened to me. This has happened to me many
many times. I get I know what you're saying. Yeah,
and then the New ninety Day premiered on Sunday night.
It's called Before the ninety Days, and we have a
whole awful Oh it's.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Exciting, oh terrible.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Okay, I agree with Eric on that one. Now there
we go.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
We're gonna call my mom and then I'm going to
read this story. But I'm going to read it to
her so I want her to get her take on
it because there's something I'm going to do after reading
the story and after a gift that I got. So
let me do this. Oh wait, I go right hair
bo Okay, here we are and it's on roadcaster. There
(07:28):
we go.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
She does not like being on the Arab but she's
so good.
Speaker 6 (07:35):
Hello Mama, Yeah, Hi Hi Mary, Hi, Hi Eric.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
How are you, my love?
Speaker 6 (07:43):
I'm fine? How are you good?
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Okay? So I'm going to read a story and then
I'm going to tell you why I'm so mad when
I was halfway home from your house because I forgot
to ask you something. Okay, oh oh. J simpsons cremated
remains have been turned into jewelry, and his lawyer says
(08:06):
that it was distributed among his four kids and they
all have now a piece of jewelry that contain his ashes.
That said, a woman that I'm doing a walk with
this weekend gave me this really cool bracelet and inside
the bracelet is sand red sand from like some different country.
(08:28):
It's this cool company. So, Mom, I forgot to ask
you for Dad's ashes because you said you have some
for me. Still I do, because I lost my bagfull
a long time ago, and that was I don't I
know all the moves.
Speaker 6 (08:43):
That I've made thinking about some kind of jewelry that
you can contain that in, but I can't. You know,
it's not very you don't see that anywhere.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
Well, I think what they do is they can make
it into like a like a stone, and you can
wear it is a ring, or you can wear it
like this heart that I have has the sand in it,
and maybe would that creepy? Is that creepy cool?
Speaker 6 (09:07):
I'm a kind of thinking of a heart that would
be cool.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Would you want a necklace, a ring or a bracelet?
Speaker 6 (09:16):
Well, I'm thinking about you, you guys, you and Jenny mostly, Well.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
I was thinking about the three of us because that's
how it goes. Yeah, so what do you want? I'll
order it through this company, but I'm gonna need to
get that. Oh can you mail ashes through the mail?
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Probably?
Speaker 5 (09:34):
Well, yeah you can't.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
Yeah, if they send them.
Speaker 6 (09:37):
To you, that's true, padded envelope.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
I probably just need the littlest bit and then I'll
have jewelry made for you know what when.
Speaker 5 (09:48):
When I go, because you know, I'm I'm probably going
to go before you, Okay, because of my advanced age,
I'm going to give you know, you can use mine.
You and Mary and your sister, you can all have
some of mine too.

a SCAD survivor. SCAT is a very very little known
They don't know what causes this kind of heart attack. Really,
they're kind of they need more research and it what
(13:10):
the scary thing is. It affects mostly women under the
age of fifty and pregnant women and there are women
that are like twenty five years old having these kind
of heart attacks. So more research is needed. So that's
why Scadadle is happening the eighth annual. It's Saturday on
the MC. It starts at eight thirty opening ceremonies, somebody's
(13:35):
going to share their heartwarming story and then we're going

Okay, before we interview our special guests, Gary Bell, I
have decided to boys to I want your honest feedback.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
I'm kind of white knuckling this.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
I have three recent acting auditions. One of them I
did with Evan and her boyfriend when they were here
and I had them help me read they Her boyfriend
was laughing so hard he could not breathe, and I
literally was doing the best job I could and they
(16:02):
were dying. Now this is the best take we got.
I think it's the first one, the one where I'm
stumbling to the couch. Okay, So the direction they give
you kind of direction on what they're looking for. They
give you a little bit of a backstory about what
character you're playing. So if this is the first one,
I'm thinking I'm playing like kind of a rough and
(16:25):
tumble friend who's there for her friend and who's a
little bit on the harder side and kind.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
Of from the wrong side of the track.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
No, oh, it's like my she's my goddaughter or something.
She's in the hospital and I'm like incensed and I
have to They wanted to see my physical comedy or
my physical illness in this act, and that's when the
laughing happened. So I'll let you know if I got
a call back on this one, because this one was
(16:54):
like a couple of weeks ago, ringing. I'm not going
to say anything yet. I want you to see them first,
and then you tell me if I got a if
I got a callback, I did get I got something.
I got a message from somebody that wanted me to
(17:15):

for vitamins like gut vitamins.
Speaker 2 (17:25):

Speaker 1 (17:29):
Oed like, I love this, Hollywood, I'm so regular.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
So all these auditions okay, well we have a different
one first, because the one you're thinking, what am I wearing?
Speaker 1 (17:46):
And I'll tell you what that is.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
This one is you and looks like the newsroom with
a tan long sleeve.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Oh I oh, this one. I think I'm a mom. Yes,
I'm a mom in an office and I'm talking to
my assistant.
Speaker 2 (18:00):

how you do it, but make sure Jas attends the
Quinn group'st it.

Auter didn't come yesterday.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
I need to find another way to get them to
meet Gavin. I don't care how you do it, but
make sure Jace attends the Quinn Group anniversary gala tomorrow night.
Speaker 8 (18:25):

Speaker 1 (18:33):
At tomorrow night's anniversary gala, I'll be formally introducing Audrey
as the Quinn Group's daughter in law.

If you won't cherish your wife, your mother will and
seeing thank you.
Speaker 8 (18:58):
Okay, so you didn't come yesterday.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Okay, it wasn't too bad.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
I noticed the first part. It looked like I was reading,
because I was reading. I mean, I don't memorize that.
I've tried to put it out. But that wasn't like horrific.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
No, I have to say I didn't well that one.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
That one was fairly h recent. So we'll see. I
haven't gotten a call back yet.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
Now, if this one is the one where I'm in
the green sweatshirt, this one, I'm smoking a joint with
my friends and we're in a cabin and we're on
the porch, and actually it's we're the same character, but
I'm the I'm the more tough version of this girl.
(19:41):
Got it here we go? Look at me, look at me. Smoke.
I rolled up. I rolled up a napkin to make
it look like a blunt.
Speaker 8 (19:51):
Since what fucking dad's funeral?
Speaker 1 (19:56):
You know, writing about it does make it better, Definitely.
Who would have thought I'd end up being the outdoors type.
It's really nice peace and quiet sometime to think and
be with myself.
Speaker 8 (20:15):
No pun intended. Yep, that he's trying to fuck you.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Yeah, yes, every single fucking time I interrupt with him,
I can't help but.
Speaker 8 (20:37):
Think he's trying to get something out of him.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
He's all touchy, feeling and shit, and I catch him
staring at me way too often. I'm telling you, he
wants to fuck me, you us, Why don't you? Or
do you really think he does?
Speaker 8 (20:54):
And you're just, you.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Know, doing that thing you always do, acting like you
got low self esteem, feeling sorry for you, beating yourself up.
Speaker 8 (21:03):
Oh stop it, who do you think you're talking to?
We do that? You do that often. I think I
like the validation I know too much, like an open book.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Then again, sometimes I don't know what you're gonna say.
I look at you and I get an empty page.
Maybe we're long lost twins.
Speaker 8 (21:34):
You never know. It's a small world.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Okay, critique thoughts, now, come on now, tell.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
Me, okay, the first one was better?
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Really I thought that one was better. Don't feel okay,
come on you that this is what I wanted a
freaking I'm about to give you some okay, trying to
count on yourself, and please tell me.
Speaker 3 (22:05):
I'm trying to figure out your other club, which may
be corrupting the one you sent me on. Now Okay, I.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Think tell me the just I know you'll be blunt
with me, but also don't be to me on purpose.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
I think the first one was better. I thought the
script was pretty awful, but I thought your delivery was okay.
The second one was. I think there are moments whe
you do Okay, I think again, the script is a
little weird.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Do I overact a little bit? Oh? Okay, I got
to tone it down a little bit.
Speaker 5 (22:39):
I would say you will by at least like especially
since you were stoned you were, I should have been
more chillen.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
I didn't buy the fact you were stone either, Okay,
but I don't know like it was. They weren't terrible,
They're fine, Okay. Second one had moments where I was like, okay,
I could see that, like that kind of feels real.
And then there are other moments from like and she's
acting again.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Okay. Now, if this one works, this one either has
Evan in the background reading mydlines or WHOI and stop
looking at your phone watch this all right?
Speaker 3 (23:06):
This is the last one.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
And this was filmed actually in my actual home, not
at work, where I shouldn't be doing these foditions, but
I do. After my shift. But I'm like alone and
I have peace and quiet. I can do these things. Sure,
it's worth giving it a shot, right absolutely, And all
these things come on backstage. Anybody can be on backstage.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
At Academy Awards, just within reach.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
That's not really one of my goals. Like I said,
on my bucket list, what is on our bucket list?
Speaker 2 (23:38):
It's my goal.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
I want to we want to be in a blockbuster film,
but we'll be dead bodies if we have to.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
We don't really care.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
I don't listen to hang a toe tag on that tho.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
I don't think it's gonna work.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
Oh no, well okay, then it's not gonna work. It's alright, No,
this one was the funniest one I believe.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Actually, maybe I can fix it if you guys, we
can back later.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Okay, So all right, let's talk about Is there anything
you want to talk about? Is there anything that's going
on in your life besides the Chris Hemsworth thing?
Speaker 3 (24:13):
That was enough that.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
What did you do on your day off? Did you
go did you sleep? Did you go shopping? Did you
I did get stuff done?
Speaker 2 (24:24):
I got dead all three?
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Have you ever been to all the yes? Is that
like a cult grocery store. It kind of makes creeps
me out.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
There's nothing there that you would recognize.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
But it's is it all all the like merchandise stuff?
Is it named? Is all this stuff just stuff?
Speaker 2 (24:43):
Brands that you've never heard of before?
Speaker 1 (24:44):
See, I won't be able to go there.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
No, No, all right, Well, well you know what these shoes?
Speaker 8 (24:50):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (24:50):
God, like he needs another pair of shoes. Eric, you
you know what I'm going to take. You're going to rehab.
You have a problem and you need to get help. Yes,
for shoes. What was that?
Speaker 3 (25:04):
I don't know that was your Okay, I think really
that Laura falling down?
Speaker 1 (25:07):
I don't know what that was.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
I thought we were having an earthquake. I was like, bye, I.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
Know we did something well down, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
It was like by everybody see you?
Speaker 3 (25:16):
All right?
Speaker 1 (25:16):
All right, okay, here we go, Oh, here we go. Okay,
so this is like my comedic shot. Here we go.
Speaker 8 (25:24):
I am so sorry that I'm laid.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
I had a stopping a gas and then traffic was
backed up, and then some douche nozzle was texting while driving.
Speaker 8 (25:34):
Ugly crying in the parking lot for twenty minutes. No,
maybe this is why I told her not to tell you.
I am her best friend.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
I should have been the first person that she told.
In fact, I should have been there holding her hand
when she was told. All I'm saying is you don't
handle Stuss very well.
Speaker 8 (25:57):
What about you? How you had this, kiddo?
Speaker 7 (26:01):
It is not the.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Mountain we conquered, but ourselves.
Speaker 7 (26:08):
Of course, you're handling this like a complete psycho.
Speaker 8 (26:14):
Hepatitis c. Thanks for that. Now everybody here thinks I'm
a crack hor Wow, is damn cheating on you? I
was sexually transmitted. You could remember my climbing accident in Peru.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
Uh, yeah, the one where I try to jump on
a plane right away, but it turns out you have
to wait three months to get a passport to get
over to that place.
Speaker 7 (26:44):
And god damn nine to eleven just keeps hitting. I
lost so much blood they needed to give me an
emergency transfusion.
Speaker 8 (26:53):
Apparently that's how I contracted it.
Speaker 9 (26:55):
The HEPSI going unchecked caused the cirrhosis, and essentially, no,
my liver is failing.
Speaker 7 (27:02):
You got a lawsuit on your hands. We will sue
the shit out of this hospital.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
The doctors, the nurses, the practitioners, the Peruvian dictator.
Speaker 8 (27:15):
Peru has a president, a woman. You do still have
health insurance?
Speaker 6 (27:20):
Right?
Speaker 3 (27:22):
When I switched to work from home, they made me
changed to a subcontractor.
Speaker 7 (27:26):
I lost my benefits.
Speaker 8 (27:27):
You've got to be kidding me. O. Dan wants us
to mortgage the house.
Speaker 7 (27:33):
Yes, yes, we'll mortgage the house.
Speaker 8 (27:38):
I can sell my car.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
We can do a fundraisor remember when we booked that
trip to Cabo? How we got there by slinging those
jello shots at clubs downtown.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Uh, this is what it sounds like.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
Every month, do you pay your bad No, she isn't
acting in this.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Okay, so yeah, obviously that was Evan and then the
last part was my friend. But notice how Evan was
barely keeping because again another script that's not so great.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
But I've never heard the term douche nozzle.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
I know, well it was in the script.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
I had no idea what the hell was going on
the entire time.
Speaker 2 (28:19):
I didn't need there.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
Well, it was okay, it was I Okay. Out of
the three, which which role do I land?
Speaker 3 (28:27):
I think the first one's actually the best.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
I think when you get too high energy, yeah, you
get you overreact or.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
You over because you're not supposed to do that on film,
or like you're supposed to be more natural re acting.
I know. Okay, no good feedback, Okay, thank you. You
know what, I'm not going to say screwble for you guys.
But when I get my big shot and I'm in
Hollywood filming a movie for two months, right, I'm going
(28:57):
to be like I told you guys, and when just
a matter of time.
Speaker 3 (29:01):
And when that happens, you have earned that right until then,
I have earned the right to critique and make.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
And then when that happens, it will be air grimmer
after dark.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Oh can't wait to scrub that name off the thing.
Speaker 5 (29:15):
I'll just put black tape over it during during your
hiatus from the podcast.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
Okay, now it's time for our special guest, Gary Bell.
Come have a seat on the hot seat. Hi Gary,
put your headphones on. Hi Gary. Oh oh hey.
Speaker 5 (29:29):
Out Oh now he decides it. Come here, el.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Elvis.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
He's got a bag of treats.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
Elvis, get over here, little Brad.
Speaker 5 (29:41):
What are you doing?
Speaker 3 (29:43):
Oh well, what's the matter?
Speaker 1 (29:45):
I don't know, dogs, what are you gonna do? So?
Gary is here talking about something that Eric brought up
last week A very important I guess you want to
say it's not fundraising, it's more like supply gathering, right or.
Speaker 2 (30:02):
Tell us like yes.
Speaker 9 (30:04):
So it's very interesting because I I've been working on
this and I've had to realize that you have to
say philanthropy because it's not a nonprofit.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
There you go, I know there.
Speaker 9 (30:18):
Okay, So yeah, it's very interesting because it's not a nonprofit.
So I have to say philanthropy because nonprofit work is
tax related in people donating and they get a tax.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
Benekay, well, first of all, who are you and why
are you? Did you create this or develop it?
Speaker 2 (30:39):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (30:39):
And what is it?
Speaker 2 (30:41):
It's kind of a wild story.
Speaker 9 (30:43):
So I recently became a member of the University Club,
which is in downtown San Diego.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
Okay, wow, that's fancy. That's a big deal.
Speaker 9 (30:56):
Yeah, it was very It was a big shock to
me because I didn't I've never been a part of
a private club, and I actually wanted to do it
to become better at networking and have more opportunities, and
because I do massage therapy and I do art, and
so I thought it'd be great. Well, as soon as
I got connected to the club, I was like, oh
(31:16):
my gosh, there's so many resources here, and there's so
many people that actually care. You kind of think is
just sort of bougie and people are like, you can't
sit with us, very mean girl style, But it turned out.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
That people are really great.
Speaker 9 (31:34):
There's yeah, there's a really great atmosphere there. Ever since
COVID hit, they've really changed things up. It's become more diverse,
and so I just felt at home. And it was
really weird because I thought i'd have this feeling that
I didn't belong there. So it's been a really great ride.
I've only been a member for a couple months, but
(31:56):
I saw all the opportunity and I saw the way
that people want help, and I was like, well, I've
been wanting to do philanthropy work for years and I
thought I'd have to have like millions dollars to do this,
and I'm like, well, let's.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Make it happen. So what I ended up doing.
Speaker 9 (32:11):
Is I talked to the LGBT Center and they're housing
insecured youth actually need resources in the form of hygiene resources,
and so it's like your basic like toothpaste and toothbrush
and deodorant and lip balm, specifically with SBF if they're
(32:32):
outside a lot.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
Uh.
Speaker 9 (32:34):
They asked for blankets because they have people who are
sleeping on the street and they just want a blanket
so they have something more comfortable.
Speaker 2 (32:41):
To sleep on.
Speaker 5 (32:43):
I mean, just really like basic human.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
Supplies, tampons, all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
Yeah, we got them.
Speaker 9 (32:50):
We got them a ton of pads already because I
want to make sure I got that in their hands
right away. And then we're gonna what we're gonna do
is putting together all these supplies into the these bags.
So we're I'm currently collecting the supplies and then with
the help of the University Club, I'm getting people together
(33:12):
because I'm trying to create a committee.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
It's all happening very quickly, so I'm very excited.
Speaker 9 (33:19):
But what we're going to do is for an event,
We're going to put all those together in bags and
then I can deliver them to the university to the
center both in hillcrest On University and then also the
one in North County.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
So it's very exciting.
Speaker 9 (33:36):
People have been really responding well to it and really
wanted to help, and we've got lots of great things
coming in.
Speaker 5 (33:43):
I just want to get more so that they.
Speaker 1 (33:45):
What is your goal? When is your goal date to
get these delivered? Or like what what you want to collect.
Speaker 5 (33:51):
Them all by September sixteenth?
Speaker 9 (33:54):
Okay, because I want to do this right, and so
I want to make sure that I have all the
supplies early and then I can make sure that when
we put them together, we have all the supplies we need.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
And you made it really easy, yes, because you just
created an Amazon list.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (34:10):
It's really wonderful because people are also seeing that they
can make a difference by actually giving some like hard product,
like instead of oh, here's a dollar, we're like, oh,
that's so cool. I'm giving these people, you know, some toothbrushes,
Like this feels really good and this is a great
way for me to contribute. And people have been much
(34:30):
more willing to contribute because they feel like they're connected
to it.
Speaker 1 (34:35):
And so that's what we have on our website is
the link to the Amazon page.
Speaker 5 (34:41):
Yes, it's Amazon Registry list.
Speaker 1 (34:43):
Okay, and it's super easy. It's all right there. It's
exactly what is needed.
Speaker 9 (34:49):
Just click on what you want and it'll throw it
in your cart and then the default address will just
go right to me, I'm collecting the supplies and we'll
put them together.
Speaker 1 (34:58):
Oh my gosh, that's just that's so great of you.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
It's awesome.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
Now, I don't know if this is an appropriate question
to ask, but I've always been curious, like, what kind
of funds does it take to become a member of
the university club? Is it something that is like like
really you need to say for no, Wow, this.
Speaker 2 (35:23):
Is totally appropriate.
Speaker 9 (35:24):
Actually, it's super fascinating because I was talking to a
friend of mine who lives in La Joya, and I
was talking to him about how I became a member
of this private club and I was just like, wow,
it's so fascinating, and he was just looking at me
like so skeptical, and he's like, what do you want?
And so then I explained how much it costs, and
he how much? How little it costs and he was like, oh, okay,
(35:48):
that makes sense because in La Joya he lives down
the street from a private club.
Speaker 5 (35:53):
And he said it's one hundred thousand dollars and it's
a thousand dollars a month after that.
Speaker 1 (36:01):
That's what I was figuring because it's so nice that
I've been I was lucky enough to be invited, and
in the Copley buildings are near there the top of
the Symphony the Civity Towers. Yes, and the view is
beautiful and the insight is gorgeous, and there's great food
and ambiance and and all sorts of people to network with.
Speaker 2 (36:21):
Mm hmm. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:22):
So it give me a price range between the give
it big ones. You don't have to give the exact number,
but like.
Speaker 5 (36:28):
I can get the exact number because it's public information.
It's not okay, okay, the price. So basically, the club
considers them to be inclusively exclusive, so they don't shun
people from wanting to come into the club. So they're
great with diversity, and I love that. I'm seeing more
and more of that.
Speaker 9 (36:47):
They just have sort of a privacy rather than a secrecy,
so it's sort of like you can come here, you
can get away from the chaos down on the street.
You can enjoy networking with people who are in the
same mentality as you. So it's fifty initiation fee, which
is a lot less expensive than one hundred thousand dollars.
That's and it shocks, and then it's three twenty a month. Wow,
(37:09):
three twenty.
Speaker 3 (37:10):
Yeah, not about it at all.
Speaker 1 (37:12):
Wow, you're and you're really right about the networking thing.
Like if this is something that you really want or
looking towards, this could be like a really great thing
to do.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
If you have a business, you can write it off
as marketing expense. Ooh yeah, which is what I'm doing.
Speaker 1 (37:25):
All right. It awesome.
Speaker 9 (37:27):
Honestly, if you're interested, go to the website and.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
Find out find Mitch. Just ask for Mitch.
Speaker 9 (37:36):
He's the director of membership and he's incredible. He is
so sharp, he's on it. He responds so quickly. He'll
get you what you need. And if you tell them
that Gary Bell sent you, they will take extra good
care of you.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
Oh You've already made that big of an impression.
Speaker 9 (37:52):
I'm very I'm very humbly appreciative to say that they
are glad that I'm there because of the vision that
I have with things like outreach and giving back to
the community. I have a lot of other big things
in the plans. So maybe I can come on and
talk about the HUTURE episode. But it has to do
(38:13):
with education grants.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
I love that idea, Like it just went off, no,
because like the light just sensed all my the student loans.
I have on my back. So grants for education is
that's huge, really big. Well, the link is on our website,
Laura Kane after Dark. Scroll down a little bit and
you'll see it. You can't miss it and do something
good for people that really need it. Just your basic needs,
(38:41):
I mean we take that for granted, but some people
really need things desperately and in that like what do
you have in that bag right there?
Speaker 5 (38:48):
So the bag has most importantly the basic supplies.
Speaker 3 (38:52):
So it has.
Speaker 9 (38:54):
Soap, shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, toothpaste, toothbrush, the SBF lip bomb.
For some reason, they get asked constantly for cup of
noodle soup, so they were really excited to have those.
Get some crackers in. It's a fun thing.
Speaker 1 (39:13):
I want to take this on my next vacation. I
was going to pack it because it has like all
the things.
Speaker 2 (39:17):
You need to go on vacation. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (39:20):
Does it stick this in my suitcase.
Speaker 2 (39:22):
When we go to a pump Springs?
Speaker 1 (39:23):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (39:24):
Oh yeah, I'm going later this week. You are, Yeah?
I go there monthly as a mental getaway.
Speaker 5 (39:29):
Where do you stay very very healthy?
Speaker 1 (39:31):
Do you stay at someone's house?
Speaker 9 (39:33):
It depends. Sometimes I'll stay at someone's house. Sometimes a hotel.
Speaker 1 (39:36):
What hotel do you recommend? Derek and I are going
to plan a trip for and I'll tell you why.
Speaker 9 (39:42):
Honestly, the Best Western in downtown Palm Springs does a
good job. It's very clean, okay, which I've worked in
hotels before. That's so important for me personally if I'm
going to stay somewhere, so cleanliness and it's very functional.
It doesn't have all the bells and whistles, but that
means that the price is really accessible.
Speaker 3 (40:00):
Okay.
Speaker 9 (40:00):
They have a pool, they have a hot tub. They
have breakfast complimentary in the morning. It got better with COVID.
The breakfast in the morning is wonderful. They do like
eggs and sausage and potatoes, and they have someone serve
them to you and then they have a whole.
Speaker 2 (40:15):
Rest of Laura is all about the sausage.
Speaker 1 (40:17):
Okay, Yeah, here's the ree Should I touch? Should I tell? Eric?
And I had or I had an idea and then
I floated it past Eric. He's like, totally, I go,
we need to plant. Okay, let me just put it
this way. I've been in a big, long stretch of
(40:40):
no lovers. If you were our big, big, big long
very longer than it ever has been dry spelled. Okay,
And I thought, and I'm like a little nervous to
get back out there because I kind of forgot what.
I have no game. I've no game left, like I
don't even know what to do anymore.
Speaker 9 (40:58):
With honestly, be yourself like that scares people, I think,
But calmly, I.
Speaker 3 (41:06):
Don't be yourself, I.
Speaker 9 (41:08):
Know exactly ill, it's yourself at ease, and don't give
too much information right off the ball like I always do,
like rehab.
Speaker 2 (41:18):
Well, because that wouldn't be at ease.
Speaker 5 (41:19):
And there's nothing shameful about parts of you.
Speaker 9 (41:23):
But but it makes sense that if you're talking to
someone else, if they divulge a lot of stuff, typically
they call it trauma dumping.
Speaker 2 (41:32):
So don't just don't take a dump on anybody, what
Gary saying.
Speaker 1 (41:36):
Okay, So I thought, Eric and I go to Palm
Springs for like two nights. He'd be my wingman and
I this is going to come off completely wrong, but
I kind of want to be I want to play
the field. Yeah, I want to.
Speaker 2 (41:56):
Palm Springs is really great for it to be honest for.
Speaker 1 (41:58):
A single great woman. Yes, okay, yes, okay, good because
we were worried, like with smart choices. But I kind
of want to make I want to start off and
just like go for it and get it over with
and like maybe do a one night stand and start
like there go the races. We're off to the races, people,
and I'll.
Speaker 2 (42:17):
Be sleeping in the car while you catch your put the.
Speaker 1 (42:19):
Sock on the good do.
Speaker 9 (42:21):
Honestly, Eric, there's so many things you could do besides
being in the car drag shows.
Speaker 2 (42:26):
Oh true. I could go to I could go to restaurants,
art galleries.
Speaker 5 (42:30):
I could go eat by myself in a restaurant while
you Oh you wouldn't be by yourself. It's Palm Springs.
You'd meet all kinds of release.
Speaker 2 (42:37):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (42:37):
So the goal is for me to break the dry
spell and then get it and then get.
Speaker 2 (42:44):
We're going to break that tumbleweed in half.
Speaker 9 (42:47):
I feel like I'm just promoting all these different companies.
But it's best Western Las Brisas in downtown Palm Springs.
They do an amazing job, so classy, so functional.
Speaker 2 (42:59):
The price is great.
Speaker 9 (43:00):
It's literally right in downtown across from the free parking garage,
so it's just like walkable to everything.
Speaker 5 (43:07):
Downtown and you know what, I'll bring my little mini
leaf blowers so we can knock out all the cobwebs
in the dust before you go out on the town.
Speaker 1 (43:16):
I know I'm gonna have to get prepared, prepared. Yes, Okay,
well I didn't think we were going to talk about that,
but there you go. Anyway, So I'm glad you okay
the idea.
Speaker 9 (43:27):
Yeah, I can literally give you a PDF of things
that you can do wall in Palm Springs.
Speaker 1 (43:31):
Okay, we're talking to the right person. Yeah, we're going
you're not just saying that you're gonna help your sister over.
Speaker 5 (43:38):
Here, sister friend, don't worry. Okay, I got your friend
in your back.
Speaker 3 (43:42):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (43:43):
Well, if you want to be part of this great
