00:00:12.380 --> 00:00:25.559
Preparing. Got it. Setting it up. And we are

00:00:25.559 --> 00:00:31.920
live, ladies and gentlemen. Here we go. What

00:00:31.920 --> 00:00:37.140
up, man? How's everyone? Show 41. The dishes

00:00:37.140 --> 00:00:41.700
are gone. Yes. Yes, yes, yes. Sorry I was a little

00:00:41.700 --> 00:00:46.060
late. Shit happens, right, Chad? It's the last

00:00:46.060 --> 00:00:50.359
week of school for the kids, and one of my daughters

00:00:50.359 --> 00:00:52.460
had a presentation yesterday, and the other one

00:00:52.460 --> 00:00:55.859
had it today. Can't go to one and not the other.

00:00:56.060 --> 00:00:59.630
That's true. So it made me a little late. I know

00:00:59.630 --> 00:01:02.210
you can't do favorites here, but did one have

00:01:02.210 --> 00:01:06.909
a better presentation than the other? No, they

00:01:06.909 --> 00:01:10.150
were both equally as good. Ah, what a great dad

00:01:10.150 --> 00:01:14.090
answer, Chad. Yes. Check this out. I'm going

00:01:14.090 --> 00:01:17.010
to see if I get this right this time and share

00:01:17.010 --> 00:01:20.170
a little something for the audience out there.

00:01:20.810 --> 00:01:23.170
And we should be good in the hood. I'm just going

00:01:23.170 --> 00:01:33.769
to play this and be quiet. Okay. Yeah, I can

00:01:33.769 --> 00:01:36.689
hear it. Perfect. As I told you before, this

00:01:36.689 --> 00:01:39.450
is the version without my actual drums on it.

00:01:39.510 --> 00:01:43.030
Oh, this is. Okay, I didn't know. I still get

00:01:43.030 --> 00:01:45.569
an idea of the song. Yeah, but you know what?

00:01:45.629 --> 00:01:49.230
We'll go to this bad boy. Depeche Mode cover,

00:01:49.370 --> 00:01:51.930
right? By The Gracious Few. Yes, sir. This is

00:01:51.930 --> 00:01:56.659
cool. I apologize for that one. Ladies and gentlemen,

00:01:56.700 --> 00:01:58.420
Chad did mention that last week. I didn't know

00:01:58.420 --> 00:02:01.879
if this was something else I stumbled upon. That's

00:02:01.879 --> 00:02:04.760
no problem. Yeah, I got to get a copy of the

00:02:04.760 --> 00:02:16.520
version with my drums on it. Way better. Oh,

00:02:16.599 --> 00:02:18.439
this is not the Depeche Mode cover, by the way.

00:02:19.419 --> 00:02:22.860
Oh, I am getting everything wrong today. This

00:02:22.860 --> 00:02:26.180
is the unreleased song? yeah that's one of the

00:02:26.180 --> 00:02:28.360
unreleased songs for the gracious shoe okay and

00:02:28.360 --> 00:02:31.740
it's called labor of love labor of love yep correct

00:02:31.740 --> 00:05:05.120
all right my bad We call this a squirrel. Dude,

00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:09.699
dude, dude. So yeah, I just, I don't know why

00:05:09.699 --> 00:05:12.939
I cut that short, but I guess my, I don't know

00:05:12.939 --> 00:05:15.279
how that works with unreleased music. I know

00:05:15.279 --> 00:05:17.500
we're allowed like 15 to 30 seconds of stuff

00:05:17.500 --> 00:05:20.660
that's like released without them taking the

00:05:20.660 --> 00:05:22.220
episode down. So I don't know how that works

00:05:22.220 --> 00:05:25.800
for unreleased, but I guess we'll find out. Well,

00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:29.600
Bill just said it sounds good. So we got the

00:05:29.600 --> 00:05:31.829
audio figured out, which is great. Um, yeah,

00:05:31.910 --> 00:05:33.509
I don't know how it works with unreleased stuff,

00:05:33.589 --> 00:05:36.389
but yeah, you know, you can tell from that music,

00:05:36.410 --> 00:05:38.470
a band was fun. We had a great time doing that.

00:05:38.529 --> 00:05:41.329
It's just, uh, it was a labor of love, the whole

00:05:41.329 --> 00:05:44.290
thing. So, yeah, man, I have a question about

00:05:44.290 --> 00:05:47.129
that song. So was that, uh, made for the album?

00:05:47.209 --> 00:05:49.310
Was that recorded after the album? Like, I just

00:05:49.310 --> 00:05:51.449
can't imagine why that didn't make it. I remember

00:05:51.449 --> 00:05:53.990
if we recorded that during the session or not.

00:05:54.069 --> 00:05:57.730
I don't remember right now. Damn dude. That song

00:05:57.730 --> 00:06:01.829
is fucking killer. yeah that and i think that

00:06:01.829 --> 00:06:04.050
depeche mode song the cover we did and there's

00:06:04.050 --> 00:06:07.250
a couple others that we recorded in uh in our

00:06:07.250 --> 00:06:11.990
rehearsal space at the time yo so yeah so now

00:06:11.990 --> 00:06:15.250
bill's saying play it's no good well we'll tell

00:06:15.250 --> 00:06:17.230
bill thank you for uh helping me last week figure

00:06:17.230 --> 00:06:20.009
out those uh audio thing the audio uh issues

00:06:20.009 --> 00:06:23.269
but uh it's no good yeah i think i could do that

00:06:23.269 --> 00:06:27.649
um and then that should lead us right into our

00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:32.920
Yes, too. So look at us being on point and professional.

00:06:34.040 --> 00:06:39.980
Make sure this is shared properly. And we are

00:06:39.980 --> 00:06:47.120
already live, but... Okay, there's that. In stereo,

00:06:47.379 --> 00:06:58.290
perfecto, share, and... There you go. It's no

00:06:58.290 --> 00:10:05.740
good. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, Chad, that's a Depeche

00:10:05.740 --> 00:10:11.440
Mode cover? Yeah. Wow, dude. I got to hear their

00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:14.840
version. I couldn't imagine it. You never heard

00:10:14.840 --> 00:10:17.740
It's No Good, Depeche Mode? I don't think so,

00:10:17.820 --> 00:10:20.200
but I couldn't imagine it being that rocking

00:10:20.200 --> 00:10:22.159
and that fucking cool. I mean, don't get me wrong.

00:10:22.159 --> 00:10:24.440
Well, it's not that rocking. It's more to the

00:10:24.440 --> 00:10:26.500
poppy Depeche Mode style. It's still a great

00:10:26.500 --> 00:10:30.700
song, but yeah, we just rockified it. Fucking

00:10:30.700 --> 00:10:34.500
A, man. Did you guys ever do that in concert,

00:10:34.559 --> 00:10:38.840
that song? Yeah, a few times. Nice. And what

00:10:38.840 --> 00:10:41.279
about the unreleased one we heard? Was that something

00:10:41.279 --> 00:10:43.159
you guys jammed out in concert or was that something

00:10:43.159 --> 00:10:45.039
that was kind of... We may have played that in

00:10:45.039 --> 00:10:48.120
concert. When we went out on tour, the one tour

00:10:48.120 --> 00:10:52.039
we did for that, we had obviously very limited

00:10:52.039 --> 00:10:54.700
catalogs. We had to play whatever we had. Right.

00:10:55.080 --> 00:10:57.200
To do like an hour and a half show, hour 15,

00:10:57.399 --> 00:11:01.500
you know? Yeah. I didn't even, like, it's amazing

00:11:01.500 --> 00:11:05.980
to me because, excuse me, you hear a lot of,

00:11:05.980 --> 00:11:09.419
like, B -sides from bands and, you know, unreleased

00:11:09.419 --> 00:11:11.200
songs from bands. You're like, okay, I see why

00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:14.179
they left these off the album and these didn't

00:11:14.179 --> 00:11:17.580
make it. But both live and The Gracious Few,

00:11:17.659 --> 00:11:20.980
man, some of these unreleased songs are fucking

00:11:20.980 --> 00:11:24.179
better than some album songs. And, like, you

00:11:24.179 --> 00:11:26.360
wonder how the fuck this didn't make it there.

00:11:27.320 --> 00:11:30.850
It's, like, crazy. It was tough choices. Yeah.

00:11:31.269 --> 00:11:34.909
Usually we would kind of let Jerry sort of pick,

00:11:35.029 --> 00:11:37.190
because Jerry produced The Gracious Few as well,

00:11:37.230 --> 00:11:41.049
Jerry Harrison. I think Bill just sent me something.

00:11:41.210 --> 00:11:44.370
The Talking Heads are going to be on Leno soon?

00:11:45.309 --> 00:11:47.429
Or the Tonight Show? Sorry, with Jimmy Fallon?

00:11:47.649 --> 00:11:50.149
I was like, wait a second. Is Leno doing this?

00:11:50.350 --> 00:11:52.889
Yeah, sorry. Yeah, it's going to be Jimmy Fallon's

00:11:52.889 --> 00:11:55.669
Tonight Show. Talking Heads are going to be on.

00:11:55.809 --> 00:11:59.549
Are they playing? And so Jerry Harrison would

00:11:59.549 --> 00:12:02.029
be part of that then, right? Yeah, absolutely.

00:12:02.389 --> 00:12:06.309
Wow, dude. That's going to be fucking cool. I'm

00:12:06.309 --> 00:12:07.509
going to have to check that out. Oh, so it's

00:12:07.509 --> 00:12:11.429
a reunion. Oh, shit. Wow. Reunion announcement.

00:12:11.950 --> 00:12:14.509
Here we go. I figured that would happen someday.

00:12:15.049 --> 00:12:19.009
You heard it here on The Gracious Two. Talking

00:12:19.009 --> 00:12:22.889
heads getting back together reunion style. That

00:12:22.889 --> 00:12:26.269
sounds... Wow, David finally acquiesced. Yes.

00:12:28.049 --> 00:12:30.389
David Byrne, we've heard from several sources

00:12:30.389 --> 00:12:34.830
that he just didn't care about the money. His

00:12:34.830 --> 00:12:39.250
solo career does well. He lives in the same apartment

00:12:39.250 --> 00:12:41.269
in New York City. He's lived there for 40 years

00:12:41.269 --> 00:12:43.429
or something. He rides a bike around New York.

00:12:43.830 --> 00:12:48.169
He wasn't motivated by money to do the reunion,

00:12:48.289 --> 00:12:51.090
but I guess they gave him the right price. I

00:12:51.090 --> 00:12:53.779
don't know. Made him an offer he could not refuse.

00:12:54.419 --> 00:12:56.259
But, I mean, to the benefit of the public, I

00:12:56.259 --> 00:12:57.460
mean, that's going to be amazing to see them

00:12:57.460 --> 00:13:00.179
again. Dude. I've never seen them live, so it'll

00:13:00.179 --> 00:13:02.120
be freaking cool. I got to go check that out.

00:13:02.440 --> 00:13:04.860
You got to give Jerry a call and say, hey, the

00:13:04.860 --> 00:13:07.820
Gracious 2 needs some VIP treatment for this.

00:13:08.720 --> 00:13:11.320
Yeah, maybe we can get them on here. Yeah, man,

00:13:11.419 --> 00:13:14.100
that would be freaking dope. I mean, just Jerry

00:13:14.100 --> 00:13:16.820
Harrison, legendary from not only the stuff he

00:13:16.820 --> 00:13:18.980
did in Talking Heads and stuff he did with you

00:13:18.980 --> 00:13:21.039
guys, but produced a bunch of cool -ass stuff.

00:13:21.480 --> 00:13:25.779
He has a pretty deep catalog of producing that

00:13:25.779 --> 00:13:30.100
he did. That's a cool side of things. To go from

00:13:30.100 --> 00:13:33.580
a band like the Talking Heads and learn so much

00:13:33.580 --> 00:13:36.019
from there and then to go and do producing for

00:13:36.019 --> 00:13:39.059
other bands and show them the way and what works

00:13:39.059 --> 00:13:41.379
and what doesn't is a give back type of deal.

00:13:41.860 --> 00:13:45.820
He really gave us the art of song structure.

00:13:46.279 --> 00:13:48.919
He was really key in that. It actually influenced

00:13:48.919 --> 00:13:53.759
my playing as well. As a drummer, I would start

00:13:53.759 --> 00:13:57.759
songs, for the most part, with really simple

00:13:57.759 --> 00:14:00.220
beats and then make it more complicated as the

00:14:00.220 --> 00:14:02.440
song went on or more fills as the song went on.

00:14:02.840 --> 00:14:08.360
And I got that from Jerry. I think Jerry has

00:14:08.360 --> 00:14:10.899
been quoted as saying I was one of the most difficult

00:14:10.899 --> 00:14:14.179
drummers to work with. Probably because you're

00:14:14.179 --> 00:14:20.210
a perfectionist and your beats are so... solo

00:14:20.210 --> 00:14:22.190
to you like you know what i'm saying like you're

00:14:22.190 --> 00:14:24.669
coming up with your own stuff so maybe maybe

00:14:24.669 --> 00:14:26.909
that's what he meant but yeah i mean i don't

00:14:26.909 --> 00:14:28.389
know if the sentiment's the same in the band

00:14:28.389 --> 00:14:31.370
probably but like the only reason that i was

00:14:31.370 --> 00:14:33.269
hard to work with is because when i felt something

00:14:33.269 --> 00:14:35.110
i believed in it i wanted to fucking be that

00:14:35.110 --> 00:14:39.090
way yeah man i was you know in most cases i mean

00:14:39.090 --> 00:14:41.450
not the two i'm not tuning my own horn but i

00:14:41.450 --> 00:14:43.830
was right like the proof's in the pudding yeah

00:14:43.830 --> 00:14:46.730
i'm too in your horn because you're damn right

00:14:46.730 --> 00:14:49.200
yeah we're fucking right man Like I said, those

00:14:49.200 --> 00:14:52.720
drum beats are legendary. The live catalog is

00:14:52.720 --> 00:14:54.740
legendary, and the drums are a huge part of that.

00:14:55.299 --> 00:14:59.299
So our guest is here. I'm going to pronounce

00:14:59.299 --> 00:15:02.399
her name right. Marima. That's right. They're

00:15:02.399 --> 00:15:04.399
into the show. Maybe she'll correct us when she

00:15:04.399 --> 00:15:06.179
comes on, but I think it's Marima. That's what

00:15:06.179 --> 00:15:10.379
I always called her. Yes. She is a writer, creator,

00:15:10.779 --> 00:15:14.299
relocation coach, and that's just to name a few

00:15:14.299 --> 00:15:19.220
of her. many, many talents and things that she

00:15:19.220 --> 00:15:22.519
does. So I'm just letting her onto the show now.

00:15:22.700 --> 00:15:26.620
There we go. Hello. Hello. Let's see. Where's

00:15:26.620 --> 00:15:29.980
my, there we go. Hi guys. What's up? How are

00:15:29.980 --> 00:15:32.759
you? I'm great. I'm a little bit nervous. It's

00:15:32.759 --> 00:15:34.779
so weird. I'm like, I should be used to being

00:15:34.779 --> 00:15:38.360
in front of the camera, but here we go. How are

00:15:38.360 --> 00:15:41.179
you guys? Good. Thank you. Thank you for coming

00:15:41.179 --> 00:15:43.320
on. Really appreciate it. It's been a long time

00:15:43.320 --> 00:15:46.320
since I've seen your face. Live in person. Yeah.

00:15:46.559 --> 00:15:49.519
Good to see you too. Yeah. We've been watching

00:15:49.519 --> 00:15:51.840
like kids grow up on Facebook and stuff like

00:15:51.840 --> 00:15:55.139
that. Exactly. Yes. How old are yours now? My

00:15:55.139 --> 00:15:57.720
son's about to turn 20, which. Oh my gosh. Wow.

00:15:57.820 --> 00:16:02.340
Yeah. Yeah. My daughter's 17. So. Oh, geez. You're

00:16:02.340 --> 00:16:04.460
going to be an empty nester soon. I know I'm

00:16:04.460 --> 00:16:07.240
a half empty nester. It's weird. It's weird,

00:16:07.399 --> 00:16:10.500
but yeah, things are good. I was watching your

00:16:10.500 --> 00:16:14.679
videos for, I guess, like home remedies for instead

00:16:14.679 --> 00:16:18.580
of doing Botox and stuff like that. So I guess

00:16:18.580 --> 00:16:21.860
having a 20 year old and a 17 year old that your

00:16:21.860 --> 00:16:24.340
products that you're recommending actually do

00:16:24.340 --> 00:16:26.419
work because you don't look old enough to have

00:16:26.419 --> 00:16:29.220
kids that age. Well, I really, really appreciate

00:16:29.220 --> 00:16:32.409
that. Thank you. I just turned 50 last week,

00:16:32.409 --> 00:16:34.509
actually. Oh, happy birthday. That's awesome.

00:16:34.509 --> 00:16:37.730
Thank you. Half a century. It's a trip. I'm totally

00:16:37.730 --> 00:16:41.210
in denial. Wow, yeah. I'm almost three years

00:16:41.210 --> 00:16:44.289
ahead of you. Oh, well, you don't look it either.

00:16:44.490 --> 00:16:47.789
Our generation does not age. Oh, it's so strange.

00:16:47.870 --> 00:16:50.210
When my dad turned 50, I remember when my dad

00:16:50.210 --> 00:16:52.049
turned 50, and then when I turned 50, I'm like,

00:16:52.129 --> 00:16:54.870
I don't look anything like my dad looked when

00:16:54.870 --> 00:16:58.250
he turned 50. It's so different. It's different

00:16:58.250 --> 00:17:01.870
for us. I don't know. Yeah. 50s the new I think

00:17:01.870 --> 00:17:05.190
we uh smoke and drink less yeah that's probably

00:17:05.190 --> 00:17:11.569
right that's true exactly it's so true oh sorry

00:17:11.569 --> 00:17:13.930
go ahead no no I was just making a joke saying

00:17:13.930 --> 00:17:16.430
the Surgeon General made their way into our ears

00:17:16.430 --> 00:17:20.329
and uh that's right I know that's true oh yeah

00:17:20.329 --> 00:17:23.630
remember all the commercials too oh my god yep

00:17:23.630 --> 00:17:27.990
I like the ones that uh it's 10 o 'clock do you

00:17:27.990 --> 00:17:31.059
know where your children are yes remember that

00:17:31.059 --> 00:17:35.039
i never knew we were basically feral we were

00:17:35.039 --> 00:17:39.599
we were out drinking hose water exactly the lights

00:17:39.599 --> 00:17:42.779
came on yeah it was it was cool you ever see

00:17:42.779 --> 00:17:45.019
those videos now on instagram whatever and it's

00:17:45.019 --> 00:17:47.380
like some gen x or some millennial dude's like

00:17:47.380 --> 00:17:52.279
why did you have to drink out of a hose no gen

00:17:52.279 --> 00:17:54.640
x and we're like because we weren't allowed in

00:17:54.640 --> 00:17:57.920
the freaking house Exactly. Kicked you out for

00:17:57.920 --> 00:17:59.880
the summer and said, don't come back until dinnertime.

00:18:00.099 --> 00:18:02.359
You're like, okay. We didn't have our Stanley

00:18:02.359 --> 00:18:05.819
cups that we ran around with. That's right. The

00:18:05.819 --> 00:18:09.299
best one was the SNLs to get where they're like,

00:18:09.359 --> 00:18:13.400
big, dumb cup. And they have a full bottle of

00:18:13.400 --> 00:18:19.019
wine in it. My girls had a couple of those. That's

00:18:19.019 --> 00:18:20.319
the first time I heard about it. My girls are

00:18:20.319 --> 00:18:23.099
10, and they come to me, they're like, Dad. I

00:18:23.099 --> 00:18:24.819
want a Stanley cup for Christmas or whatever

00:18:24.819 --> 00:18:27.740
it was. I'm like, Stanley cup, like Stanley,

00:18:27.920 --> 00:18:29.779
they make power tools. Like what are you talking

00:18:29.779 --> 00:18:33.940
about? Then I saw like, is that an award for

00:18:33.940 --> 00:18:36.119
something? Is that like a tennis thing? I was

00:18:36.119 --> 00:18:39.660
like, it's either a trophy for the NHL or it's

00:18:39.660 --> 00:18:41.180
a power tool. So I don't know what you mean by

00:18:41.180 --> 00:18:43.980
the Stanley cup. Yeah, exactly. And then I went

00:18:43.980 --> 00:18:45.599
to Dick's sporting goods and there was like a

00:18:45.599 --> 00:18:47.880
wall full of every color and every size. I'm

00:18:47.880 --> 00:18:51.529
like, this is weird, man. That's so crazy. That's

00:18:51.529 --> 00:18:53.769
social media though. Like one thing comes on

00:18:53.769 --> 00:18:56.930
and then everybody needs to have it. Yeah. 24

00:18:56.930 --> 00:19:00.509
hours. It's true. And then I believe, don't quote

00:19:00.509 --> 00:19:02.450
me on this, but I believe the Stanley cups got

00:19:02.450 --> 00:19:05.589
like, um, they were getting in trouble for having

00:19:05.589 --> 00:19:08.009
like something leak out of their, out of the

00:19:08.009 --> 00:19:10.250
metal. They had lead in their solder, I believe.

00:19:11.170 --> 00:19:14.730
So yeah. So yeah. Made our, made our kids generation

00:19:14.730 --> 00:19:17.450
a little stupider, but with lead poisoning. Thanks.

00:19:17.920 --> 00:19:20.220
They need it. They're too smart. All right. In

00:19:20.220 --> 00:19:22.460
the water, in the Stanley cup with the lead.

00:19:22.619 --> 00:19:27.539
It's awesome. Good stuff. So did I, I believe

00:19:27.539 --> 00:19:30.420
I pronounced your name, right? Uh, right. Marima.

00:19:31.019 --> 00:19:35.960
Perfect. And I taught him well. He did. And then

00:19:35.960 --> 00:19:38.980
your videos taught me well as well, but I had

00:19:38.980 --> 00:19:42.240
Marima in my head from just not seeing your videos

00:19:42.240 --> 00:19:44.079
and just kind of reading it and interpreting

00:19:44.079 --> 00:19:47.900
it my way. So to get the marima stuck in there

00:19:47.900 --> 00:19:49.920
after having the other one stuck in there, I

00:19:49.920 --> 00:19:53.799
was like, okay, more rhyme. So I was like, more

00:19:53.799 --> 00:19:58.200
rhyme. And then that's how it stuck. Perfect.

00:19:58.240 --> 00:20:00.400
And I've had to spell it like that phonetically

00:20:00.400 --> 00:20:04.240
for people before to get it. I mean, sometimes

00:20:04.240 --> 00:20:05.900
people get it when they hear it. Sometimes it

00:20:05.900 --> 00:20:07.900
takes multiple times of hearing it and seeing

00:20:07.900 --> 00:20:10.460
it broken up. But even marima is better than

00:20:10.460 --> 00:20:12.880
what I've gotten. I've gotten Marianne, marima,

00:20:13.019 --> 00:20:20.630
maria. Okay. I'll bet. So your heritage is Hungarian,

00:20:20.990 --> 00:20:24.289
yes? Half Hungarian, yeah. Half Hungarian, okay.

00:20:24.390 --> 00:20:27.170
So what's the origin of Maraima? Like, where'd

00:20:27.170 --> 00:20:29.910
that come from? Maraima is an Aramaic name, and

00:20:29.910 --> 00:20:34.289
it means Mary. And my mom says the family is

00:20:34.289 --> 00:20:36.569
Cuban. So not that it's a common name in Cuba,

00:20:36.670 --> 00:20:40.839
but it's not. completely uncommon either so she

00:20:40.839 --> 00:20:42.619
heard the name when she was younger and she was

00:20:42.619 --> 00:20:44.259
like if i ever have a daughter i'll name her

00:20:44.259 --> 00:20:48.019
marima and there we go there you go it's unique

00:20:48.019 --> 00:20:52.000
yeah for sure my first time ever reading it seeing

00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:54.539
it hearing it so that that's dope i mean you

00:20:54.539 --> 00:20:56.819
know how many johns i've ran into in my life

00:20:56.819 --> 00:21:00.619
it sucked growing up with a name that's strange

00:21:00.619 --> 00:21:02.200
though because i never got to get you know the

00:21:02.200 --> 00:21:06.599
little license plates oh yes so right yeah Yeah.

00:21:06.640 --> 00:21:09.240
Isn't it amazing? The stuff like as a kid, you

00:21:09.240 --> 00:21:12.119
kind of want something to fit in and like get

00:21:12.119 --> 00:21:13.960
the license plate plaques and stuff like that.

00:21:13.980 --> 00:21:16.240
When you get older, you're like, shit, I got

00:21:16.240 --> 00:21:19.220
a cool name and not have it. So this is a lot

00:21:19.220 --> 00:21:22.559
more dope than I thought. Totally. Totally. It

00:21:22.559 --> 00:21:24.519
just, you know, you don't when you're not in

00:21:24.519 --> 00:21:26.440
school anymore, it's also a lot better because,

00:21:26.500 --> 00:21:28.640
you know, you're that first day of school and

00:21:28.640 --> 00:21:30.799
the teachers were doing roll call and they stop.

00:21:30.980 --> 00:21:35.700
Right. Oh, that it's your name. Yeah. That's

00:21:35.700 --> 00:21:41.279
me. So Marama, I got a ton of questions for you.

00:21:42.680 --> 00:21:45.440
Softballs to start off with. And then they'll

00:21:45.440 --> 00:21:47.519
get harder and harder. So you shouldn't be nervous.

00:21:47.920 --> 00:21:52.460
No, I'm just kidding. So you're a writer, creator,

00:21:52.839 --> 00:21:55.619
relocation coach, just to kind of name a few.

00:21:55.859 --> 00:21:59.059
And I went through, I saw some of your writing,

00:21:59.099 --> 00:22:02.630
a beautiful blog. posts that you did about your

00:22:02.630 --> 00:22:04.829
father that I want to get into, uh, if you don't

00:22:04.829 --> 00:22:07.930
mind a little bit later. Um, and then of course

00:22:07.930 --> 00:22:10.250
your creation side with your videos and stuff

00:22:10.250 --> 00:22:15.490
like that, your adult re wired, I believe. Yes.

00:22:17.170 --> 00:22:20.289
Um, and, and, and, and all that jazz. So I was

00:22:20.289 --> 00:22:22.970
impressed with, uh, with the stuff I saw, I saw

00:22:22.970 --> 00:22:25.650
so far, but my question to start off with what

00:22:25.650 --> 00:22:29.609
is a relocation coach and, uh, can you tell us,

00:22:29.609 --> 00:22:31.460
you know, kind of what they do and. If I could

00:22:31.460 --> 00:22:35.079
use it. Yeah, absolutely. So I started working

00:22:35.079 --> 00:22:37.359
as a relocation coach or relocation consultant

00:22:37.359 --> 00:22:41.839
about six and a half years ago for a company

00:22:41.839 --> 00:22:45.220
that works with a lot of the corporate giants

00:22:45.220 --> 00:22:49.299
in the US. So I don't know if I'm supposed to

00:22:49.299 --> 00:22:51.079
name it, but basically, you know, Nike, Adidas,

00:22:51.200 --> 00:22:54.720
Amazon, you know, any major corporation that

00:22:54.720 --> 00:22:57.059
you would hear of when they're relocating their

00:22:57.059 --> 00:23:01.589
clients, they need. Assistance. And that assistance,

00:23:01.710 --> 00:23:04.470
assistance that we provide as relocation consultants

00:23:04.470 --> 00:23:07.450
is we help them if they're international clients

00:23:07.450 --> 00:23:10.170
to do their settling in tasks. So everything

00:23:10.170 --> 00:23:13.190
from applying for a social security number to

00:23:13.190 --> 00:23:16.529
getting a driver's license to opening bank accounts,

00:23:16.609 --> 00:23:18.650
all of that nitty gritty. And then we also assist

00:23:18.650 --> 00:23:21.769
with rentals. So in my department, we don't do

00:23:21.769 --> 00:23:24.250
real estate. We just do rental listings. So we

00:23:24.250 --> 00:23:27.140
help them. With finding listings in the areas

00:23:27.140 --> 00:23:29.380
they're interested in, setting up their viewing

00:23:29.380 --> 00:23:31.720
appointments, walking them through the application

00:23:31.720 --> 00:23:35.500
process, and just really kind of taking a lot

00:23:35.500 --> 00:23:38.059
of those little pieces off of their plate so

00:23:38.059 --> 00:23:40.940
that they can relocate with a little less stress.

00:23:41.019 --> 00:23:43.799
Because most of the time with a lot of relocation

00:23:43.799 --> 00:23:45.579
clients, they're given two weeks. They've got

00:23:45.579 --> 00:23:47.759
two weeks to pack up, sell their home, whatever

00:23:47.759 --> 00:23:51.160
it takes, and then go. The more help they can

00:23:51.160 --> 00:23:54.039
get, the better. And having done this for six

00:23:54.039 --> 00:23:57.220
years with my good friend, Nancy. So we started

00:23:57.220 --> 00:23:59.640
off doing modeling and commercials in LA and

00:23:59.640 --> 00:24:03.640
we both ended up in relocation. We, as of a year

00:24:03.640 --> 00:24:06.339
ago, decided to also on the side, set up our

00:24:06.339 --> 00:24:09.599
own relocation coaching program, which is Get

00:24:09.599 --> 00:24:12.700
Ready, Set, Move. GetReadySetMove .com. Because

00:24:12.700 --> 00:24:15.619
we saw a need. Not everybody has a corporation

00:24:15.619 --> 00:24:19.299
backing them and helping them with the relocation

00:24:19.299 --> 00:24:21.660
process. A lot of us are just regular folks who

00:24:21.660 --> 00:24:24.000
want to move and it's overwhelming and scary.

00:24:24.180 --> 00:24:28.859
So we kind of provide a point A to point B, nitty

00:24:28.859 --> 00:24:33.250
gritty. you know, explanation of how to, you

00:24:33.250 --> 00:24:34.930
know, first of all, find where you want to move.

00:24:34.990 --> 00:24:37.230
There's a lot of people leaving certain States

00:24:37.230 --> 00:24:39.490
and they don't know where to go, which was certain

00:24:39.490 --> 00:24:46.789
States. Just like you did. Good for you. The

00:24:46.789 --> 00:24:49.829
Exodus. And, you know, it's a little overwhelming.

00:24:49.869 --> 00:24:51.890
That also inspired me. I was like, oh my gosh,

00:24:51.910 --> 00:24:52.950
you know, there are a lot of people that are

00:24:52.950 --> 00:24:54.430
looking to move. They don't know where to go.

00:24:54.569 --> 00:24:56.809
So we help with that. And then we just help with

00:24:56.809 --> 00:24:58.750
other little things like information on how to

00:24:58.750 --> 00:25:01.789
find a good. trustworthy moving companies, how

00:25:01.789 --> 00:25:03.430
to move with pets, how to move with kids and

00:25:03.430 --> 00:25:06.670
all of that. Oh, wow. Do you help people moving

00:25:06.670 --> 00:25:10.109
from California find U -Hauls to do it? Oh my

00:25:10.109 --> 00:25:11.109
gosh, I know, right? Because they're always going

00:25:11.109 --> 00:25:14.230
one way. You got to drive to Texas and drive

00:25:14.230 --> 00:25:17.609
one back. Exactly. Yeah, yeah. So, but those

00:25:17.609 --> 00:25:19.369
are all things that, you know, over the course

00:25:19.369 --> 00:25:21.210
of the six and a half or so years that I've been

00:25:21.210 --> 00:25:23.369
working corporate relocation, like you just see

00:25:23.369 --> 00:25:27.289
the needs that people have for moving and just

00:25:27.289 --> 00:25:29.299
trying to make it easier. So yeah, you're looking

00:25:29.299 --> 00:25:35.619
to move. I'm looking to move, but I can't. It's

00:25:35.619 --> 00:25:38.240
so hard. It is hard. My children's are here.

00:25:38.660 --> 00:25:41.700
Yeah, that's the tough part. I know, I know.

00:25:42.299 --> 00:25:45.079
If you could provide a teleportation device in

00:25:45.079 --> 00:25:48.059
that relocation, Marima, he might be able to

00:25:48.059 --> 00:25:50.799
do it then because then he could, you know. That's

00:25:50.799 --> 00:25:52.579
a good point. Might have to partner up with Elon

00:25:52.579 --> 00:25:55.019
Musk, see what he can do. And then I'll give

00:25:55.019 --> 00:25:57.579
him a ring and say, Hey, listen, I want to be

00:25:57.579 --> 00:26:00.599
in California just at these specific times during

00:26:00.599 --> 00:26:08.660
the day, but otherwise. So that's cool. That

00:26:08.660 --> 00:26:10.539
was cool. Like, so you went from the corporate

00:26:10.539 --> 00:26:12.799
relocation thing and then you were like, I see

00:26:12.799 --> 00:26:15.400
a need for individuals who aren't part of corporations.

00:26:15.480 --> 00:26:18.400
So let me start a side hustle with that and help

00:26:18.400 --> 00:26:21.130
out that way. which is kind of cool. Cause as

00:26:21.130 --> 00:26:23.269
you mentioned, I'm like, ah, that makes sense

00:26:23.269 --> 00:26:25.549
that it's for corporations. But what about an

00:26:25.549 --> 00:26:27.869
individual who wants to like relocate? Do you

00:26:27.869 --> 00:26:29.829
do that? And then you got into it that you do.

00:26:29.950 --> 00:26:35.130
So that's really cool. And what a treat for somebody

00:26:35.130 --> 00:26:37.309
looking to, you know, they don't know exactly

00:26:37.309 --> 00:26:39.289
where they want to go, but they know they want

00:26:39.289 --> 00:26:43.009
to go from New Jersey to Idaho and stuff. And

00:26:43.009 --> 00:26:44.170
then you could say, well, kind of what are you

00:26:44.170 --> 00:26:46.150
looking for in cities and help them pinpoint.

00:26:46.809 --> 00:26:48.690
what's good for work, what's good for their,

00:26:48.710 --> 00:26:50.230
you know, environment. That's really, really

00:26:50.230 --> 00:26:54.269
cool. It takes a lot. Yeah, absolutely. Cause

00:26:54.269 --> 00:26:55.990
it is overwhelming. And I mean, we, you know,

00:26:55.990 --> 00:26:57.890
we even cover things on like how to find a job

00:26:57.890 --> 00:26:59.670
in another state, because again, it's kind of

00:26:59.670 --> 00:27:01.369
like you're mentioning, if you don't have a corporation

00:27:01.369 --> 00:27:04.150
or a company that's transferring you finding

00:27:04.150 --> 00:27:08.690
work in another state is tricky. So. Yeah, for

00:27:08.690 --> 00:27:14.609
sure. So you're very, very, I would say, open

00:27:14.609 --> 00:27:18.990
and honest with your online self, it seems, which

00:27:18.990 --> 00:27:21.609
is cool and refreshing. A lot of people put on

00:27:21.609 --> 00:27:24.970
what seems to be their best side, best face forward

00:27:24.970 --> 00:27:28.670
type of deal. But I watched the video, I think

00:27:28.670 --> 00:27:31.190
it was on TikTok, where you were posting about

00:27:31.190 --> 00:27:34.890
Mother's Day being very difficult for you. And

00:27:34.890 --> 00:27:37.569
my God, if you didn't bring a tear to my eye

00:27:37.569 --> 00:27:39.819
as I was like... Doing some research for this

00:27:39.819 --> 00:27:42.480
lovely guest. I'm like, cool, let me check out

00:27:42.480 --> 00:27:43.880
some videos. And I'm like, oh, my God, this is

00:27:43.880 --> 00:27:46.039
very heartfelt. And I feel what she's talking

00:27:46.039 --> 00:27:49.599
about here. So it was refreshing to see. Do you

00:27:49.599 --> 00:27:53.279
find your audience responds with being open and

00:27:53.279 --> 00:27:55.420
honest like that? Or is it just something you

00:27:55.420 --> 00:28:00.099
like to do? a combination of both and it's funny

00:28:00.099 --> 00:28:02.700
because I'm pretty new to TikTok so I don't have

00:28:02.700 --> 00:28:04.819
much of an audience there and but I feel like

00:28:04.819 --> 00:28:07.619
TikTok's kind of where I just kind of lay it

00:28:07.619 --> 00:28:10.140
all out Instagram's a little more business but

00:28:10.140 --> 00:28:14.079
I just felt compelled because it's like I mean

00:28:14.079 --> 00:28:15.660
it's like you're saying like not a lot of people

00:28:15.660 --> 00:28:19.039
are super honest about the realities of life

00:28:19.039 --> 00:28:22.450
and adulthood or what have you Especially on

00:28:22.450 --> 00:28:24.589
social media, everything's great. Everything's

00:28:24.589 --> 00:28:27.470
great in my world. Exactly. And it's such a highlight

00:28:27.470 --> 00:28:30.009
reel. And on days, Father's Day is hard because

00:28:30.009 --> 00:28:32.950
my dad passed away seven years ago. Mother's

00:28:32.950 --> 00:28:34.730
Day is hard because as you saw in the video,

00:28:34.950 --> 00:28:38.670
I don't have, never had a good relationship,

00:28:38.990 --> 00:28:43.109
a nurturing, loving relationship with my mom.

00:28:44.410 --> 00:28:46.490
I figured somebody out there has got to relate.

00:28:46.650 --> 00:28:48.730
Like it's lonely. It feels lonely when, when

00:28:48.730 --> 00:28:51.190
you hop online on any of these kinds of holidays

00:28:51.190 --> 00:28:53.430
and everybody's like, look at me and my wonderful

00:28:53.430 --> 00:28:55.809
family and happy, happy. And you're just like,

00:28:55.849 --> 00:28:58.589
ah, as if it weren't hard enough. So I'm like,

00:28:58.630 --> 00:29:00.789
if somebody else needs to hear this because they

00:29:00.789 --> 00:29:03.170
relate, I'm going to put it out there. Yeah.

00:29:03.250 --> 00:29:06.089
So I love it. Cool. Thank you. If I could touch

00:29:06.089 --> 00:29:08.549
on one more thing you said, because you said

00:29:08.549 --> 00:29:10.670
like, you didn't get the loving, nurturing relationship

00:29:10.670 --> 00:29:12.390
that you, that you felt you should have from

00:29:12.390 --> 00:29:14.480
your mother. And then when you were becoming

00:29:14.480 --> 00:29:17.980
a mother, like you had shit to learn and you

00:29:17.980 --> 00:29:20.380
were damned if you didn't. So you went on and

00:29:20.380 --> 00:29:22.599
read books and stuff so you could really change,

00:29:22.619 --> 00:29:26.599
I guess, your behavior and not kind of mother

00:29:26.599 --> 00:29:30.200
the way your mother mothered you to be a better

00:29:30.200 --> 00:29:33.559
mother to your kids, which is highly commendable.

00:29:33.619 --> 00:29:37.259
And, you know, it shows a sign of maturity and

00:29:37.259 --> 00:29:39.859
a sign that you kind of break in a cycle that

00:29:39.859 --> 00:29:43.930
was maybe. in that family for years upon years.

00:29:44.529 --> 00:29:47.569
Um, what, what, what made you kind of take that

00:29:47.569 --> 00:29:50.190
Avenue and do like some self -work and, and read

00:29:50.190 --> 00:29:51.670
books on this and stuff? Like, did you know,

00:29:51.769 --> 00:29:54.470
like, shit, I'm going to be a mom and I might

00:29:54.470 --> 00:29:57.430
not have all the scruples. So let me, you know,

00:29:57.430 --> 00:29:59.009
learn some shit. Like, how did it come about?

00:29:59.650 --> 00:30:06.079
Well, I was rewiring adulthood, John. You know,

00:30:06.079 --> 00:30:07.460
it's one of those things that I think when you

00:30:07.460 --> 00:30:09.900
grow up in a chaotic or dysfunctional household,

00:30:10.180 --> 00:30:13.440
I think all of us kids that do, there's always

00:30:13.440 --> 00:30:15.980
that thought of, I'm never going to be like my

00:30:15.980 --> 00:30:18.480
mom or my dad or whatever, and I'm going to have

00:30:18.480 --> 00:30:20.799
a different life. So I grew up always thinking

00:30:20.799 --> 00:30:23.240
that. I think that you can take one of two roads.

00:30:23.339 --> 00:30:25.660
You can say that and not live it, or you can

00:30:25.660 --> 00:30:28.099
say that and actually follow, you know, like

00:30:28.099 --> 00:30:30.539
walk those words. And that's what I decided to

00:30:30.539 --> 00:30:33.809
do. And I was like, I'm not going to be. Like

00:30:33.809 --> 00:30:36.170
my mom, I don't want my kids to grow up the way

00:30:36.170 --> 00:30:40.109
that I did. So because I don't have that example,

00:30:40.349 --> 00:30:42.970
like where can I learn? And that's when I decided

00:30:42.970 --> 00:30:44.809
to just like start buying a bunch of books and

00:30:44.809 --> 00:30:46.990
researching. The internet really wasn't a thing.

00:30:47.029 --> 00:30:48.690
So I couldn't like Google anything. You know,

00:30:48.750 --> 00:30:51.210
I mean, my son was born in 2004. So it was what,

00:30:51.250 --> 00:30:56.150
MySpace that we had. And so that was it. I just

00:30:56.150 --> 00:30:59.269
wanted to give myself a foundation to kind of

00:30:59.269 --> 00:31:02.789
fall back on because. You know, it's easy to,

00:31:02.829 --> 00:31:07.609
that cycle of negativity that a lot of us grow

00:31:07.609 --> 00:31:10.269
up in, it's just such an easy thing to fall back

00:31:10.269 --> 00:31:12.609
on because it's all you know. And I mean, the

00:31:12.609 --> 00:31:14.589
same can be said for relationships, right? You

00:31:14.589 --> 00:31:16.789
know, if you grew up seeing your parents acting

00:31:16.789 --> 00:31:19.230
a certain way, like you can carry that so easily

00:31:19.230 --> 00:31:23.450
into your own life. So I just, I wanted to break

00:31:23.450 --> 00:31:25.690
the cycle desperately and that's what I did.

00:31:25.750 --> 00:31:28.960
So it can't be done. it can be done. Yes. So

00:31:28.960 --> 00:31:30.400
I was going to say it's, you know, in certain

00:31:30.400 --> 00:31:33.519
situations, you have to be consciously aware

00:31:33.519 --> 00:31:36.059
that you want to change and make those changes.

00:31:36.299 --> 00:31:37.779
Otherwise, like you said, you just fall back

00:31:37.779 --> 00:31:39.880
into those same habits that you learned. I have

00:31:39.880 --> 00:31:41.359
to give it up to my, I mean, I kind of, kind

00:31:41.359 --> 00:31:44.839
of relate because my ex, her, her relationship

00:31:44.839 --> 00:31:48.319
with her mother was very poor and, but she's

00:31:48.319 --> 00:31:50.579
become a great mom and she does a great job.

00:31:50.660 --> 00:31:53.299
And so she overcame that cycle of, you know,

00:31:53.299 --> 00:31:57.859
crap too. Yeah. Yeah. It can absolutely be done.

00:31:58.000 --> 00:32:00.880
And kudos to all the moms and dads that break

00:32:00.880 --> 00:32:04.720
those cycles. Absolutely. And kudos to people

00:32:04.720 --> 00:32:06.700
knowing that those books are written. I've heard

00:32:06.700 --> 00:32:09.740
people say there's no books written on how to

00:32:09.740 --> 00:32:12.220
be a great parent. There's actually thousands

00:32:12.220 --> 00:32:15.279
of books written on how to be a great parent.

00:32:15.640 --> 00:32:17.319
They're out there. Got to find them. The only

00:32:17.319 --> 00:32:19.319
hard thing is finding the ones that you want

00:32:19.319 --> 00:32:21.480
to read or narrowing it down, right? And there's

00:32:21.480 --> 00:32:23.700
one for every stage. Like I've gone through now

00:32:23.700 --> 00:32:26.549
and read the teenage books because. teenagers

00:32:26.549 --> 00:32:32.549
are oh yeah you know gen z teenagers yeah and

00:32:32.549 --> 00:32:35.269
the difference between a boy teenager and a girl

00:32:35.269 --> 00:32:39.690
teenager and all that yes yeah absolutely totally

00:32:39.690 --> 00:32:44.130
so yeah my son's 14 he's he's been pretty easy

00:32:44.130 --> 00:32:48.250
his whole life and even now yeah he's 14 and

00:32:48.250 --> 00:32:52.109
about six two that's crazy yeah yeah the girls

00:32:52.109 --> 00:32:54.130
are 10 they're gonna i think they'll be more

00:32:54.130 --> 00:32:56.079
of a challenge so I better start reading some

00:32:56.079 --> 00:32:59.779
books on girls, girls. Remind me, I'll send you

00:32:59.779 --> 00:33:03.480
some recommendations. Everybody was like, Oh,

00:33:03.619 --> 00:33:06.160
the boys are hard when they're little, but it's

00:33:06.160 --> 00:33:07.900
the girls when they're teenagers. And I was like,

00:33:07.920 --> 00:33:10.319
nah, my daughter is super easy. She's a great

00:33:10.319 --> 00:33:13.160
kid, but the, it's just, it's a hard world to

00:33:13.160 --> 00:33:17.440
be a girl nowadays. Oh my God. Yeah. Social media

00:33:17.440 --> 00:33:20.869
and all that crap too. Jesus. Chad, I don't know

00:33:20.869 --> 00:33:22.890
if the Easter Bunny does this for your son or

00:33:22.890 --> 00:33:26.450
not, but the Easter Bunny for me at 13 started

00:33:26.450 --> 00:33:29.890
bringing condoms to my Easter basket. I wasn't

00:33:29.890 --> 00:33:32.769
even using them yet. I think it was a preemptive.

00:33:32.849 --> 00:33:36.470
Easter Bunny does not do that in my house. But

00:33:36.470 --> 00:33:39.569
I think what I was getting to with that, it's

00:33:39.569 --> 00:33:43.150
really good to start that conversation early

00:33:43.150 --> 00:33:46.089
with boys, especially to always use protection

00:33:46.089 --> 00:33:49.859
and all that jazz. Because, you know, you never

00:33:49.859 --> 00:33:51.839
know when they're going to get frisky. I try

00:33:51.839 --> 00:33:53.640
to give little hints on that, you know, here

00:33:53.640 --> 00:33:55.400
and there while we're in the car by ourselves.

00:33:55.539 --> 00:33:59.519
Like, you know, like some girls now? Yeah. I

00:33:59.519 --> 00:34:01.019
mean, I don't know if he's lying or not, but

00:34:01.019 --> 00:34:02.680
he's kind of like, no, I don't like girls. Of

00:34:02.680 --> 00:34:04.539
course he's lying. He doesn't want to be, you

00:34:04.539 --> 00:34:06.619
know, having that conversation with dad. Dad,

00:34:06.799 --> 00:34:09.099
I think she's hot. That's all right. One day

00:34:09.099 --> 00:34:11.760
he will. I got to keep the door open, though,

00:34:11.760 --> 00:34:14.219
in case he does. For sure. For sure. He has to

00:34:14.219 --> 00:34:17.519
know something. my dad would always say like,

00:34:17.579 --> 00:34:18.960
I'd be like, we'd be watching something with

00:34:18.960 --> 00:34:21.039
Pamela Anderson. It'd be me, my father and mother.

00:34:21.119 --> 00:34:23.019
And I'd be like, Oh my God, she's so hot. My

00:34:23.019 --> 00:34:26.159
dad'd be like, not really. And I'm like, stop

00:34:26.159 --> 00:34:28.579
lying because mom's here. Like she's one of the

00:34:28.579 --> 00:34:30.539
hottest chicks on the planet. And you're like,

00:34:30.579 --> 00:34:35.460
not really. Yeah. Yeah. I'm like, all right,

00:34:35.460 --> 00:34:38.199
dad, I guess mom's that much better. But, uh,

00:34:38.480 --> 00:34:42.119
Hey, my mother's beautiful. If she's listening.

00:34:42.199 --> 00:34:45.960
I think that. Of course. You and I, well, we

00:34:45.960 --> 00:34:49.340
met through Alan Roth, right? Yes, we did. That's

00:34:49.340 --> 00:34:51.039
right. And then you moved to Portland. I lived

00:34:51.039 --> 00:34:54.420
in Portland. That's right. And Alan, are you

00:34:54.420 --> 00:34:56.760
still in touch with Alan at all? On Facebook

00:34:56.760 --> 00:34:59.219
only. Like I see his little highlights pop up,

00:34:59.239 --> 00:35:01.900
but yeah. Yeah, he's kicking ass now. I mean,

00:35:01.900 --> 00:35:05.079
he was in the whole club restaurant promotion

00:35:05.079 --> 00:35:06.980
thing for a while, got out of it, did real estate.

00:35:07.079 --> 00:35:08.860
Now he's back in it in a big way. And he has

00:35:08.860 --> 00:35:10.820
two great places in Miami that I actually went

00:35:10.820 --> 00:35:15.280
and saw Giselle. and Rosa sky, which is a rooftop

00:35:15.280 --> 00:35:18.980
or on top of the, which hotel it is. It's a hotel

00:35:18.980 --> 00:35:20.579
right in downtown Miami. I can't remember the

00:35:20.579 --> 00:35:23.980
hotel right now, but anyway, no, not the W it's

00:35:23.980 --> 00:35:27.260
a Marriott property, but it's like the AC or

00:35:27.260 --> 00:35:29.780
something. Anyway, anyway, my point is he's kicking

00:35:29.780 --> 00:35:33.460
ass and he's better than ever. And I saw him

00:35:33.460 --> 00:35:36.139
about a year ago. I went to Miami and checked

00:35:36.139 --> 00:35:39.480
out his places. That is really cool. See life

00:35:39.480 --> 00:35:41.960
is an end in your midlife, right? You can keep.

00:35:42.730 --> 00:35:44.889
greater and reinventing yourself and all kinds

00:35:44.889 --> 00:35:49.369
of stuff yes yeah that's so cool shout out alan

00:35:49.369 --> 00:35:53.869
um yeah so is 50 the new 30 uh marima because

00:35:53.869 --> 00:35:58.170
that's what i'm hearing um sure yeah yeah it

00:35:58.170 --> 00:36:01.289
really is though i mean if you look at like when

00:36:01.289 --> 00:36:03.610
when we were growing up i say we because we're

00:36:03.610 --> 00:36:07.929
like in that age bracket type deal um 50 year

00:36:07.929 --> 00:36:10.789
old people look like ancient you know what i'm

00:36:10.789 --> 00:36:12.980
saying like look old you're like all right this

00:36:12.980 --> 00:36:15.519
guy's got one foot in a grave here you know like

00:36:15.519 --> 00:36:19.360
but now it's like it's really strange like 60

00:36:19.360 --> 00:36:22.039
year olds look young to me like i'm like that

00:36:22.039 --> 00:36:24.360
doesn't look like an old person like not a grandmother

00:36:24.360 --> 00:36:28.079
not a grandfather like how we're aging differently

00:36:28.079 --> 00:36:31.559
than our you know previous generations but something's

00:36:31.559 --> 00:36:34.639
going on here Totally. And I don't really know

00:36:34.639 --> 00:36:36.320
what it is. Well, what's interesting is I've

00:36:36.320 --> 00:36:37.800
been, because I'm kind of like in the natural

00:36:37.800 --> 00:36:39.980
beauty sphere and I end up seeing a lot of things

00:36:39.980 --> 00:36:42.260
in my algorithm. But what's interesting is that

00:36:42.260 --> 00:36:45.480
they're saying that the younger generations are

00:36:45.480 --> 00:36:47.780
actually aging faster. So we're kind of like

00:36:47.780 --> 00:36:50.679
this, like Gen X is kind of its own, like, I

00:36:50.679 --> 00:36:52.300
don't know, we're weird. What was in that hose

00:36:52.300 --> 00:36:55.739
water? I don't know. Yeah. Empire blood. We're

00:36:55.739 --> 00:36:59.199
just not aging. And I think, well, what I've

00:36:59.199 --> 00:37:01.920
been learning is a lot of like millennials and

00:37:01.920 --> 00:37:05.719
older Gen Z are so afraid of aging that they're

00:37:05.719 --> 00:37:09.099
actually aging faster. And there are a couple

00:37:09.099 --> 00:37:10.440
of different, like they're saying, maybe it's

00:37:10.440 --> 00:37:12.039
all the stress from social media and they're

00:37:12.039 --> 00:37:14.260
using skincare too young, which is not meant

00:37:14.260 --> 00:37:15.780
for young skin. I was going to bring that up.

00:37:15.840 --> 00:37:17.719
It seems like they're using skincare too young

00:37:17.719 --> 00:37:20.039
and they're getting Botox way too young and they're

00:37:20.039 --> 00:37:22.599
doing all these things in their 20s. And you're

00:37:22.599 --> 00:37:24.320
like, wait a minute, this is supposed to be.

00:37:24.960 --> 00:37:26.860
When you're a little bit older and you have some

00:37:26.860 --> 00:37:28.460
wrinkles and you want to get rid of some stuff,

00:37:28.500 --> 00:37:30.900
but they're doing it now. It's not going to bode

00:37:30.900 --> 00:37:33.380
well for them when they get older. It's being

00:37:33.380 --> 00:37:36.360
sold to them. Maybe because they're too young

00:37:36.360 --> 00:37:40.579
and not clicked into intelligence. I don't know.

00:37:40.699 --> 00:37:44.380
What's a nice thing to say? Naive? Is that the

00:37:44.380 --> 00:37:49.409
right word, guys? They're being sold. Preventative

00:37:49.409 --> 00:37:52.110
Botox and preventative filler. And now they're

00:37:52.110 --> 00:37:54.309
starting to see that that actually like affects

00:37:54.309 --> 00:37:57.630
your, it atrophies your muscles. So then by the,

00:37:57.650 --> 00:38:00.610
you start at 20, by the time you're 40, you look

00:38:00.610 --> 00:38:04.269
50. So you haven't, you know, it's, but yeah,

00:38:04.349 --> 00:38:07.510
anyway. I think maybe diet could have something

00:38:07.510 --> 00:38:10.050
to do with it too. Cause like people were starting

00:38:10.050 --> 00:38:12.469
to become more health conscious in the eighties,

00:38:12.489 --> 00:38:15.130
nineties, you know, 2000 kind of watching what

00:38:15.130 --> 00:38:18.000
they. And then like the two thousands came and

00:38:18.000 --> 00:38:20.659
they started doing like the impossible burger,

00:38:20.820 --> 00:38:23.519
which was like supposedly no meat, but all these

00:38:23.519 --> 00:38:27.420
other crazy things in it that. So it's like,

00:38:27.679 --> 00:38:31.260
yeah, it could one does bill Gates own impossible

00:38:31.260 --> 00:38:35.119
or the other one. He owns one of them. Yeah.

00:38:35.800 --> 00:38:39.039
Anyway, Mr. Bill Gates, we love him. Yeah. No,

00:38:39.199 --> 00:38:43.940
no, thank you. I don't know if you guys saw this,

00:38:43.980 --> 00:38:46.659
but about seven minutes before our one o 'clock

00:38:46.659 --> 00:38:49.519
podcast started and not getting political, but

00:38:49.519 --> 00:38:52.539
just mentioning Hunter Biden found guilty on

00:38:52.539 --> 00:38:57.219
all three charges. You want to hear my theory

00:38:57.219 --> 00:39:00.860
on that? Please. They did that on purpose so

00:39:00.860 --> 00:39:03.760
that they can now go out and say, see, the law

00:39:03.760 --> 00:39:05.900
system, the justice system isn't rigged. We convicted

00:39:05.900 --> 00:39:08.579
Biden's son so they can continue to go after

00:39:08.579 --> 00:39:11.530
Trump. That's what they're fucking doing. Not

00:39:11.530 --> 00:39:13.150
that he doesn't deserve to be convicted because

00:39:13.150 --> 00:39:16.309
he is, you know, he did those things. I was going

00:39:16.309 --> 00:39:19.469
to say, if they kind of spin it to that, like,

00:39:19.550 --> 00:39:21.989
oh, well, you know, it's not rigged because he

00:39:21.989 --> 00:39:23.309
was found guilty. Oh, they're already spinning

00:39:23.309 --> 00:39:24.889
it. Merrick Garland already came out and made

00:39:24.889 --> 00:39:26.610
a statement. See, we don't go after people because

00:39:26.610 --> 00:39:29.250
of their names or this or that. It's a perfect

00:39:29.250 --> 00:39:31.769
statement for and put out on right on the heels

00:39:31.769 --> 00:39:34.349
of the announcement of the conviction. See, the

00:39:34.349 --> 00:39:36.789
justice system is fair. It's not corrupt. Okay.

00:39:37.389 --> 00:39:42.610
He had a mountain of evidence on why he was prosecuted

00:39:42.610 --> 00:39:44.829
and found guilty. Like the defense was really

00:39:44.829 --> 00:39:46.690
scratching at their head to come up with like

00:39:46.690 --> 00:39:49.889
one good defense strategy. And they didn't because

00:39:49.889 --> 00:39:54.409
there was none. Right. Like, I guess the justice

00:39:54.409 --> 00:39:57.909
system is just and, you know, they found him

00:39:57.909 --> 00:40:00.570
guilty for crimes he did commit. And then you

00:40:00.570 --> 00:40:03.360
find somebody else guilty for. crimes that don't

00:40:03.360 --> 00:40:05.920
exist but uh yeah i guess that's fair and how

00:40:05.920 --> 00:40:08.039
shit well when they put hillary on trial then

00:40:08.039 --> 00:40:10.559
i'll believe in it you're right you're right

00:40:10.559 --> 00:40:15.039
her in any way hillary boy yeah anywho uh so

00:40:15.039 --> 00:40:17.920
marima so uh you did modeling back in the day

00:40:17.920 --> 00:40:20.780
was there did you make a decision to get out

00:40:20.780 --> 00:40:22.900
of that or you just kind of went fell into your

00:40:22.900 --> 00:40:25.659
creating and writing stuff um what made you kind

00:40:25.659 --> 00:40:30.019
of stop doing the modeling world yeah um well

00:40:30.019 --> 00:40:35.199
having kids really I um modeled for about maybe

00:40:35.199 --> 00:40:38.219
three years post having my first child my son

00:40:38.219 --> 00:40:41.460
um and I just did local stuff in Portland and

00:40:41.460 --> 00:40:43.760
then LA when we moved back down to LA and then

00:40:43.760 --> 00:40:47.980
um it just it at that point interestingly enough

00:40:47.980 --> 00:40:50.000
so at that point social media was really starting

00:40:50.000 --> 00:40:53.659
to kick in I was already like you know, I can't

00:40:53.659 --> 00:40:55.639
be taking this much time away or I don't want

00:40:55.639 --> 00:40:58.280
to take that much time away from my kids. And

00:40:58.280 --> 00:41:00.980
then I was just getting really tired with the

00:41:00.980 --> 00:41:07.019
whole LA lifestyle. And at that point, so like,

00:41:07.099 --> 00:41:09.039
oh yeah. So social media started to kick in and

00:41:09.039 --> 00:41:12.940
people were starting to ask at castings. So how

00:41:12.940 --> 00:41:16.320
many followers do you have on Instagram? And

00:41:16.320 --> 00:41:19.400
I wasn't even I was on like Facebook. That was

00:41:19.400 --> 00:41:21.360
it. Nobody was asking how many followers you

00:41:21.360 --> 00:41:23.659
have on Facebook. I wasn't on Twitter yet. Instagram.

00:41:23.880 --> 00:41:27.940
No, nothing. So I felt like I was being aged

00:41:27.940 --> 00:41:30.300
out and I wasn't being aged out by the way I

00:41:30.300 --> 00:41:33.500
looked because I was still booking work younger

00:41:33.500 --> 00:41:36.820
than my age category. But I was being aged out

00:41:36.820 --> 00:41:38.659
because I wasn't playing that social media game,

00:41:38.760 --> 00:41:42.039
which now obviously I have to. But you know what

00:41:42.039 --> 00:41:44.400
I mean? So I was like, I don't I'm not I can't

00:41:44.400 --> 00:41:46.360
do this. I don't have time to sit down and grow

00:41:46.360 --> 00:41:48.300
an audience. I have, you know, a two year old

00:41:48.300 --> 00:41:52.179
and an infant. So that's that's kind of what

00:41:52.179 --> 00:41:54.949
happened. Isn't that weird how they're kind of

00:41:54.949 --> 00:41:58.110
doing that stuff now? It doesn't matter the talent

00:41:58.110 --> 00:42:00.769
that you potentially have. It matters how many

00:42:00.769 --> 00:42:03.489
followers you have for this shit that maybe a

00:42:03.489 --> 00:42:05.530
real talented person doesn't want to concern

00:42:05.530 --> 00:42:08.250
themselves with. You know what I'm saying? They

00:42:08.250 --> 00:42:10.309
don't want to go on and worry about, I have to

00:42:10.309 --> 00:42:13.010
post three things a day to get this many followers.

00:42:13.250 --> 00:42:15.949
I really want to just practice on the thing I

00:42:15.949 --> 00:42:18.030
have natural talent in and put my time and effort

00:42:18.030 --> 00:42:20.570
into that and go on these auditions and get the

00:42:20.570 --> 00:42:23.139
job based on that merit. But then you get there,

00:42:23.139 --> 00:42:25.039
nail the audition. They're like, well, how many

00:42:25.039 --> 00:42:27.519
Instagram followers do you have? Fuck, three.

00:42:27.800 --> 00:42:30.739
I guess I don't get the job. Yeah, exactly. It's

00:42:30.739 --> 00:42:32.820
crazy. And it really did talking to friends that

00:42:32.820 --> 00:42:34.699
stayed in the industry for a little while longer

00:42:34.699 --> 00:42:37.679
than I did. And it really, you know, it did come

00:42:37.679 --> 00:42:40.559
down to how big of a following you have, because

00:42:40.559 --> 00:42:43.880
that's kind of. when you have a big following,

00:42:43.980 --> 00:42:45.960
you're also giving basically free advertising

00:42:45.960 --> 00:42:49.119
to whoever's hiring you. So they're a lot of

00:42:49.119 --> 00:42:51.780
advertisers gaining a lot and it really never

00:42:51.780 --> 00:42:53.800
had anything to do with talent. So it's almost

00:42:53.800 --> 00:42:56.440
like this, like nepotism within social media

00:42:56.440 --> 00:42:58.880
type of situation. So I couldn't get out of it.

00:42:59.760 --> 00:43:03.619
Well put, well put. I like to see the people

00:43:03.619 --> 00:43:05.679
who don't play the game and there's not many

00:43:05.679 --> 00:43:07.639
of them, but there's some big actors out there,

00:43:07.699 --> 00:43:09.980
some big musicians that don't do it, but they're

00:43:09.980 --> 00:43:13.639
few and far between. And, um, it's just crazy

00:43:13.639 --> 00:43:17.000
the amount of access you have to not only people

00:43:17.000 --> 00:43:19.019
you grew up with, but celebrities and stuff that

00:43:19.019 --> 00:43:21.559
you looked up to. Like back in a day, I was a

00:43:21.559 --> 00:43:24.219
big Jim Carrey fan and like to find out anything,

00:43:24.280 --> 00:43:26.019
I mean, you need to go buy a magazine and blah,

00:43:26.059 --> 00:43:28.559
blah. Now you could follow his every, you know,

00:43:28.559 --> 00:43:34.519
meal and bathroom movement. Yeah. It's so weird.

00:43:35.139 --> 00:43:38.739
It's strange. I think the Kardashians made it

00:43:38.739 --> 00:43:42.880
normal for people to be so involved in their

00:43:42.880 --> 00:43:47.559
lives that now every person in the limelight,

00:43:47.579 --> 00:43:49.940
so to speak, is just like, they have to give

00:43:49.940 --> 00:43:53.179
access. Their fans demand it. That's where all

00:43:53.179 --> 00:43:55.599
these young girls got the idea to start doing

00:43:55.599 --> 00:43:58.570
Botox and all that bullshit. Yeah. I think from

00:43:58.570 --> 00:44:02.369
them or just spread out. Even my girls, like

00:44:02.369 --> 00:44:04.489
they want to go to Sephora and do all the samples.

00:44:04.590 --> 00:44:06.710
I'm like, you're 10. You're not putting on a

00:44:06.710 --> 00:44:09.909
bunch of makeup. Sorry. You go in there and walk

00:44:09.909 --> 00:44:12.449
around and it's just full of 10 year olds just

00:44:12.449 --> 00:44:14.349
milling around in the Sephora. At least this

00:44:14.349 --> 00:44:16.289
one here in Irvine. And it's just, I'm like,

00:44:16.369 --> 00:44:18.090
what the fuck are all these kids doing in here?

00:44:18.170 --> 00:44:20.550
They're all testing and putting stuff on. Like

00:44:20.550 --> 00:44:24.199
what the heck's going on? It's true. And I think

00:44:24.199 --> 00:44:26.019
a lot of them are also growing up with, with

00:44:26.019 --> 00:44:28.320
like, if they have the younger moms, they're

00:44:28.320 --> 00:44:30.639
growing up watching their moms do all this stuff.

00:44:30.679 --> 00:44:32.599
So they want to be like that, you know? And I

00:44:32.599 --> 00:44:34.699
think like, if you're, if you have daughters,

00:44:34.800 --> 00:44:38.380
you have a big responsibility to And that's why

00:44:38.380 --> 00:44:40.559
I share about natural beauty. I don't do Botox.

00:44:40.559 --> 00:44:44.380
I don't do fillers, nothing. I do a lot of natural

00:44:44.380 --> 00:44:46.820
skincare and I do preach a lot about lifestyle

00:44:46.820 --> 00:44:49.679
and what you eat and all of that stuff. And also

00:44:49.679 --> 00:44:51.559
how you feel, right? Because how you feel on

00:44:51.559 --> 00:44:53.500
the inside, that reflects on the outside. So

00:44:53.500 --> 00:44:56.000
you have a responsibility if you have daughters

00:44:56.000 --> 00:44:58.420
to teach them about that. If you're the mom,

00:44:58.519 --> 00:45:00.460
because they're looking up to you as the woman

00:45:00.460 --> 00:45:03.280
figure in their life and they're going to emulate

00:45:03.280 --> 00:45:06.599
whatever you do. yeah you're sitting there getting

00:45:06.599 --> 00:45:09.699
botox all the time and getting your you know

00:45:09.699 --> 00:45:12.940
thousand dollars sephora ulta halls your daughters

00:45:12.940 --> 00:45:16.880
are going to do the same thing it's amazing what

00:45:16.880 --> 00:45:20.760
can be spent on makeup and stuff like that like

00:45:20.760 --> 00:45:24.239
you don't think as a dude like holy shit like

00:45:24.239 --> 00:45:26.559
you just had a thousand dollars sephora some

00:45:26.559 --> 00:45:33.449
dudes do that's nowadays it's like the women

00:45:33.449 --> 00:45:35.610
spend 50 million dollars on their skincare and

00:45:35.610 --> 00:45:37.869
the guy uses like a bar of soap and the same

00:45:37.869 --> 00:45:39.949
towel he dries his feet with and has better skin

00:45:39.949 --> 00:45:44.130
anyway exactly yeah i've told every girl that

00:45:44.130 --> 00:45:46.429
i've been with like manicures pedicures all that

00:45:46.429 --> 00:45:49.110
stuff you're doing i don't look at any of that

00:45:49.110 --> 00:45:51.429
you know what i'm saying i'm all about yeah i'm

00:45:51.429 --> 00:45:54.610
definitely a uh a little looks i got you got

00:45:54.610 --> 00:45:57.090
to be somewhat attractive but you know your mind

00:45:57.090 --> 00:45:59.639
and stuff like that but like If your nails are

00:45:59.639 --> 00:46:02.559
French manicured or, you know, painted toenails,

00:46:02.599 --> 00:46:04.780
like, I'm really not looking at that. I feel

00:46:04.780 --> 00:46:07.239
like it's a waste of money. If it makes you feel

00:46:07.239 --> 00:46:09.900
good and it's for you, then that's one thing.

00:46:09.980 --> 00:46:12.559
But a lot of people I know getting it, they're

00:46:12.559 --> 00:46:15.360
like, this is so the opposite sex finds me attractive.

00:46:15.639 --> 00:46:17.599
And I'm like, well, I don't know if it's working.

00:46:18.920 --> 00:46:23.019
But that's just me. I did a date with this girl

00:46:23.019 --> 00:46:26.480
I met on one of the apps. And we were going to

00:46:26.480 --> 00:46:31.579

00:46:31.579 --> 00:46:33.039

going on with how do you function in daily life

00:46:59.159 --> 00:47:01.599
with that yeah i mean and not to be gross but

00:47:01.599 --> 00:47:05.380
like when you go to the bathroom i don't exactly

00:47:05.380 --> 00:47:12.539
it's there but yeah the nails that curl and they

00:47:12.539 --> 00:47:15.639
like curl into each other that's how your nails

00:47:15.639 --> 00:47:17.280
will grow naturally if you let them grow long

00:47:17.280 --> 00:47:20.300
enough they'll curl up like that book of world

00:47:20.300 --> 00:47:23.960
records and the longest nail was like yes yo

00:47:23.960 --> 00:47:26.599
no joke i remember this stuck in my brain as

00:47:26.599 --> 00:47:29.920
a kid i'm like 10 11 years old like going uh

00:47:29.920 --> 00:47:33.579
you know to a food store acne shop right amp

00:47:33.579 --> 00:47:36.079
whatever the hell it was and this lady in front

00:47:36.079 --> 00:47:38.400
of me was like trying to pay for her groceries

00:47:38.400 --> 00:47:40.539
and she was trying to like get a card out and

00:47:40.539 --> 00:47:43.079
she literally on all five fingernails she had

00:47:43.079 --> 00:47:45.360
those circles wrapped around and they were painted

00:47:45.360 --> 00:47:49.389
i'm like yo And it just stuck in my brain. I'm

00:47:49.389 --> 00:47:51.550
like, holy shit. How long did that take you to

00:47:51.550 --> 00:47:53.710
do? How careful do you have to be with those?

00:47:53.789 --> 00:47:57.030
Like just seemed so unnecessary. And she couldn't

00:47:57.030 --> 00:48:00.989
get her card out of her wallet or whatever. I'm

00:48:00.989 --> 00:48:04.090
like, how do you go through funny? Weird. Like,

00:48:04.110 --> 00:48:05.989
could you imagine Chad, like doing something

00:48:05.989 --> 00:48:09.670
like that, that like inhibited your normal everyday

00:48:09.670 --> 00:48:13.730
activities just for the sake of like, I don't

00:48:13.730 --> 00:48:17.150
know. You think? Yeah, no. Simple answer. Nope.

00:48:17.599 --> 00:48:21.880
Yeah. I don't want to be that guy. Or that girl,

00:48:22.019 --> 00:48:23.900
because I don't know if you heard Marima, Chad's

00:48:23.900 --> 00:48:27.059
going in next week to transition. He's going

00:48:27.059 --> 00:48:30.739
to be - Big announcement. Really? Oh my gosh.

00:48:30.739 --> 00:48:33.519
Am I one of the first to know? Yes, you heard

00:48:33.519 --> 00:48:37.920
it here. Live on The Gracious 2. Right. So hopefully

00:48:37.920 --> 00:48:40.139
your nerves have dissipated at this point because

00:48:40.139 --> 00:48:42.099
you realize we're just shooting the shit and

00:48:42.099 --> 00:48:45.559
putting the - Yes. Now the probing questions.

00:48:45.719 --> 00:48:50.519
Here we go. Boom. Now I wanted to bring up a

00:48:50.519 --> 00:48:54.059
subject that touched me as I was reading it,

00:48:54.099 --> 00:48:57.900
but it was about your father and him growing

00:48:57.900 --> 00:49:03.019
up, I think in Hungary, and then a bunch of bad

00:49:03.019 --> 00:49:06.840
stuff happening and he had to witness things

00:49:06.840 --> 00:49:11.360
with Jewish people and then also getting kicked

00:49:11.360 --> 00:49:15.570
out. Why don't we... have you kind of tell the

00:49:15.570 --> 00:49:17.889
story rather than me because I don't want to

00:49:17.889 --> 00:49:20.869
ruin it, but it's a very beautiful, touching

00:49:20.869 --> 00:49:24.139
story, not beautiful story. Thank you. Yeah,

00:49:24.300 --> 00:49:28.559
I'll give you a nutshell version. So my dad was

00:49:28.559 --> 00:49:33.280
part of one of Hungary's oldest noble families.

00:49:33.280 --> 00:49:35.960
So he was a direct descendant of Saint Stephen,

00:49:36.099 --> 00:49:39.320
who was the first king of Hungary. And so we,

00:49:39.420 --> 00:49:42.260
our family tree is a lot of Hungarian royalty

00:49:42.260 --> 00:49:47.659
and nobility. And so, yeah, my dad, I mean, my

00:49:47.659 --> 00:49:52.019
dad's life story kind of reads like. like a movie.

00:49:52.300 --> 00:49:55.780
And I grew up knowing that, but that's what I

00:49:55.780 --> 00:49:57.239
knew when I was a kid. And it was like, you know,

00:49:57.260 --> 00:49:59.760
it's just normal, right? And I didn't grow up

00:49:59.760 --> 00:50:02.400
with money, so I never felt any sort of way.

00:50:02.460 --> 00:50:05.440
It was just my dad's story. But yeah, he grew

00:50:05.440 --> 00:50:09.260
up, I mean, he met a lot of dignitaries and British

00:50:09.260 --> 00:50:11.739
royalty and you name it, American, like he met

00:50:11.739 --> 00:50:14.079
General Patton when he was a little boy. And

00:50:14.079 --> 00:50:17.750
yeah, his story was amazing, but... It didn't

00:50:17.750 --> 00:50:20.429
have a fairy tale ending. It started off kind

00:50:20.429 --> 00:50:24.829
of fairy tale -ish. But I think the most impactful

00:50:24.829 --> 00:50:28.789
parts of my dad's story were during World War

00:50:28.789 --> 00:50:31.610
II, the beginnings, and during the Hungarian

00:50:31.610 --> 00:50:35.849
uprising as well in 56. And, you know, he helped

00:50:35.849 --> 00:50:39.789
my grandfather and his uncle, my great uncle,

00:50:39.969 --> 00:50:43.110
save seven Jewish families that were being sent

00:50:43.110 --> 00:50:46.230
to concentration camps. And they hid them in

00:50:46.230 --> 00:50:48.920
there. Lodge in the Carpathian Mountains. And

00:50:48.920 --> 00:50:52.559
their family butler would go on a motorcycle

00:50:52.559 --> 00:50:54.780
and sneak food over to them. And my dad sometimes

00:50:54.780 --> 00:50:58.920
went along with as well. They forged, my grandfather,

00:50:59.239 --> 00:51:02.559
who was a high level, high ranking military official

00:51:02.559 --> 00:51:05.960
and dignitary, he forged a lot of documents also

00:51:05.960 --> 00:51:08.659
for other Jewish families in Budapest at the

00:51:08.659 --> 00:51:12.239
time so that they would be able to legally and

00:51:12.239 --> 00:51:16.469
safely immigrate to other countries. So for history,

00:51:17.550 --> 00:51:20.929
the Germans occupied Hungary during World War

00:51:20.929 --> 00:51:25.530
II? Yeah. Right. And so it was kind of like you

00:51:25.530 --> 00:51:30.429
had the Soviets and the Nazis kind of basically

00:51:30.429 --> 00:51:31.969
fighting. Right on either side of you, yeah.

00:51:32.309 --> 00:51:38.670
Yeah. And unfortunately, I mean, there wasn't

00:51:38.670 --> 00:51:40.630
going to be a winning situation unless the Americans

00:51:40.630 --> 00:51:45.650
had come in before either of the two evil parties

00:51:45.650 --> 00:51:49.769
kind of took over. So my dad ended up getting,

00:51:50.050 --> 00:51:53.849
at the age of 16, the Soviets came in. And at

00:51:53.849 --> 00:51:57.550
the age of 16, my dad was kidnapped by the KGB

00:51:57.550 --> 00:52:01.190
and he was thrown into a dungeon. And my dad

00:52:01.190 --> 00:52:05.489
lost his hearing. How can I say this in a way

00:52:05.489 --> 00:52:10.489
that we don't get you guys canceled? My dad had

00:52:10.489 --> 00:52:16.469
an adverse reaction to one of these from Syria

00:52:16.469 --> 00:52:23.170
and lost his hearing. Auditory neurological damage

00:52:23.170 --> 00:52:28.869
within 24 hours of receiving that. Wow. And so,

00:52:28.969 --> 00:52:36.079
but safe and effective. Yes. Anyway, a quick

00:52:36.079 --> 00:52:37.940
question right there, or just maybe add to some,

00:52:38.079 --> 00:52:40.579
cause I don't think, I mean, I think you've mentioned

00:52:40.579 --> 00:52:42.340
it, but I don't think it was to the extent that

00:52:42.340 --> 00:52:44.920
it was your father was from you. Cause you mentioned,

00:52:45.019 --> 00:52:47.059
you know, he was like descendants of like, you

00:52:47.059 --> 00:52:49.280
know, Kings and saints and all that stuff. But

00:52:49.280 --> 00:52:53.800
he grew up in a very wealthy affluent family

00:52:53.800 --> 00:52:58.760
over there in Hungary and like big mansion, like

00:52:58.760 --> 00:53:03.030
bigger, you know, like houses. Yeah. Yes. And

00:53:03.030 --> 00:53:08.690
now at 16, this is happening. So he's going from

00:53:08.690 --> 00:53:13.130
basically a lap of luxury lifestyle to whatever

00:53:13.130 --> 00:53:15.989
we're about to get into here. I just kind of

00:53:15.989 --> 00:53:18.170
want to make that poignant point to the audience.

00:53:19.190 --> 00:53:22.670
And what happened to your grandfather or his

00:53:22.670 --> 00:53:25.050
father? Did he get thrown in the forced labor

00:53:25.050 --> 00:53:28.010
camp? Okay. So my grandfather was in a forced

00:53:28.010 --> 00:53:33.380
labor camp. My dad was in a dungeon and because

00:53:33.380 --> 00:53:35.219
he had lost his hearing when he was nine. So

00:53:35.219 --> 00:53:36.920
he, they threw him in there without a hearing

00:53:36.920 --> 00:53:39.300
aid or anything. And they would wake him up in

00:53:39.300 --> 00:53:41.519
the middle of the night to interrogate all the

00:53:41.519 --> 00:53:42.940
prisoners, wake them up in the middle of the

00:53:42.940 --> 00:53:44.639
night to interrogate them. But because my dad

00:53:44.639 --> 00:53:47.860
couldn't hear them calling his name, they would

00:53:47.860 --> 00:53:51.860
kick him awake. And, you know, for, for the rest

00:53:51.860 --> 00:53:54.260
of his life after that, my dad always had a misaligned

00:53:54.260 --> 00:53:56.960
jaw because they had kicked him in the face.

00:53:57.880 --> 00:54:00.679
When you think 16, that's two years older than

00:54:00.679 --> 00:54:04.079
your son. That's three years younger than my

00:54:04.079 --> 00:54:06.320
son. And it's shocking. It gives me the chills.

00:54:06.460 --> 00:54:11.920
And the reason that he was kidnapped wasn't necessarily

00:54:11.920 --> 00:54:15.659
because of who his dad was, was because my dad

00:54:15.659 --> 00:54:18.099
was a part of the Hungarian Boy Scouts. And the

00:54:18.099 --> 00:54:21.679
Hungarian Boy Scouts were in communication with

00:54:21.679 --> 00:54:25.400
the British and the American Boy Scouts. just

00:54:25.400 --> 00:54:28.199
as an international organization for youth, not

00:54:28.199 --> 00:54:31.699
for anything nefarious, but the KGB thought that

00:54:31.699 --> 00:54:36.619
they were being spies. Wow. Some of the scouts

00:54:36.619 --> 00:54:38.619
that my dad, I get the chills talking about it.

00:54:38.619 --> 00:54:40.480
Some of the scouts. So these are young boys that

00:54:40.480 --> 00:54:42.679
my dad was with. So my dad was a lucky one. Some

00:54:42.679 --> 00:54:46.019
of them were found killed in the woods, you know,

00:54:46.019 --> 00:54:54.079
and my dad was able to get released. didn't get

00:54:54.079 --> 00:54:56.320
anything out of him. I think they thought he

00:54:56.320 --> 00:54:58.840
was mentally handicapped because he just couldn't

00:54:58.840 --> 00:55:01.000
hear what they were saying. So he couldn't respond.

00:55:03.000 --> 00:55:06.199
And then, but at that point, my grandfather was

00:55:06.199 --> 00:55:09.519
in a forced labor camp. And when my dad ended

00:55:09.519 --> 00:55:12.820
up escaping Hungary with his sister and brother

00:55:12.820 --> 00:55:17.440
-in -law, couple of years after that my grandfather

00:55:17.440 --> 00:55:19.679
had by then been released for a forced labor

00:55:19.679 --> 00:55:21.880
camp but he had been poisoned and so he ended

00:55:21.880 --> 00:55:24.599
up dying shortly after they released him they

00:55:24.599 --> 00:55:26.940
gave him poison that thickened his blood so he

00:55:26.940 --> 00:55:33.239
oh my god wow until yeah so it's a horrible story

00:55:33.239 --> 00:55:37.219
but yeah so the soviets came in in 56 right took

00:55:37.219 --> 00:55:41.599
over yeah and up to that point it was like basically

00:55:41.599 --> 00:55:46.340
hungarian royalty mansions riches all gone in

00:55:46.340 --> 00:55:49.340
an instant. Boom. This movie basically confiscated

00:55:49.340 --> 00:55:52.199
all that wealth, right? They confiscated everything.

00:55:52.739 --> 00:55:57.460
And to this day, one of the castles that my dad

00:55:57.460 --> 00:56:01.039
spent a lot of time in as a child is a museum

00:56:01.039 --> 00:56:04.400
now. It's Keste and it's on Lake Balaton in Hungary.

00:56:04.659 --> 00:56:07.659
So I visited it with my dad when I was 16 and

00:56:07.659 --> 00:56:10.559
he recognized his name. He let us in right away.

00:56:11.599 --> 00:56:14.460
Yeah. I mean, it's, it's, it's just, it's surreal.

00:56:14.699 --> 00:56:18.900
Um, and it was amazing. So why did they, why

00:56:18.900 --> 00:56:21.019
did they, why did the KGB end up releasing your

00:56:21.019 --> 00:56:23.880
dad and your, and his sister? Like, well, the

00:56:23.880 --> 00:56:26.480
sister, she, she being, she had been living apart

00:56:26.480 --> 00:56:29.980
from the family. So they father with her. Um,

00:56:30.139 --> 00:56:34.460
they released my dad. I believe. because they

00:56:34.460 --> 00:56:35.820
couldn't get anything out of him like he just

00:56:35.820 --> 00:56:38.099
couldn't respond to any of the questioning because

00:56:38.099 --> 00:56:40.659
he couldn't hear what they were saying so he

00:56:40.659 --> 00:56:44.800
was of no use and when I say he's lucky compared

00:56:44.800 --> 00:56:47.380
to some of his scout mates he was because they

00:56:47.380 --> 00:56:49.599
could have disposed of him rather than just release

00:56:49.599 --> 00:56:52.780
him so absolutely yeah wow but yeah they took

00:56:52.780 --> 00:56:56.099
everything we do have some I have now since my

00:56:56.099 --> 00:57:00.139
dad passed away some family heirlooms and really

00:57:00.139 --> 00:57:02.920
interesting things that the butlers their butlers

00:57:02.920 --> 00:57:05.800
who were very loyal when they saw that the troops

00:57:05.800 --> 00:57:07.980
were coming the soviet troops were coming they

00:57:07.980 --> 00:57:10.760
went and they dug holes in the backyard and they

00:57:10.760 --> 00:57:14.320
on the ground they hid a bunch of stuff so i've

00:57:14.320 --> 00:57:17.400
got all of that now that's cool that is cool

00:57:17.400 --> 00:57:21.219
yeah definitely i like so you you say this this

00:57:21.219 --> 00:57:24.079
story's about your father and then he comes to

00:57:24.079 --> 00:57:26.440
america and creates a family you being part of

00:57:26.440 --> 00:57:30.289
it like i'm just trying to imagine how he got

00:57:30.289 --> 00:57:32.650
over that and was able to function in society

00:57:32.650 --> 00:57:36.389
because that's got to be so uh you know just

00:57:36.389 --> 00:57:39.570
traumatizing for a 16 year old to go through

00:57:39.570 --> 00:57:42.050
that you know getting kicked because he can't

00:57:42.050 --> 00:57:43.829
hear the name called and all that stuff and having

00:57:43.829 --> 00:57:46.170
to escape with you know his sister and a brother

00:57:46.170 --> 00:57:49.550
-in -law like a lot of that is traumatic um so

00:57:49.550 --> 00:57:53.110
like did he carry any of this over uh into you

00:57:53.110 --> 00:57:55.110
know when he was raising you guys or was it kind

00:57:55.110 --> 00:57:58.670
of No. And that's the thing. Like my dad was

00:57:58.670 --> 00:58:01.510
always, anyone that met him was like, what a

00:58:01.510 --> 00:58:06.230
doc, like just docile, gentle gentlemen. Like

00:58:06.230 --> 00:58:08.010
that's the, everybody was, he's such a gentleman.

00:58:08.070 --> 00:58:10.769
He's so kind. And he was so patient and didn't

00:58:10.769 --> 00:58:14.710
carry any of that trauma. The only times that

00:58:14.710 --> 00:58:19.269
you knew that he was battling those demons. sorry

00:58:19.269 --> 00:58:21.230
guys it's the sounds of freedom it's luke air

00:58:21.230 --> 00:58:23.530
force base right next door i got the place um

00:58:23.530 --> 00:58:28.090
would be when he suffered from night terrors

00:58:28.090 --> 00:58:31.530
my entire life that i can remember so he would

00:58:31.530 --> 00:58:34.789
have these horrible screaming nightmares in the

00:58:34.789 --> 00:58:37.889
middle oh my god I can only imagine. Yeah. Kindest

00:58:37.889 --> 00:58:41.090
man you could ever meet. He never showed any

00:58:41.090 --> 00:58:43.469
resentment towards anyone. All he ever showed

00:58:43.469 --> 00:58:47.090
was gratitude for being in the United States

00:58:47.090 --> 00:58:50.090
and for what this country could offer him. He

00:58:50.090 --> 00:58:52.050
never made it big. There was no American dream,

00:58:52.230 --> 00:58:55.829
but he knew that he had safety and freedom and

00:58:55.829 --> 00:58:58.690
safety and freedom. He knew to appreciate that.

00:58:59.150 --> 00:59:01.690
What year did he come to the United States? He,

00:59:01.809 --> 00:59:03.449
Oh my God. How did he get here? By the way? I

00:59:03.449 --> 00:59:05.920
like how, what, what was the mechanism? He came

00:59:05.920 --> 00:59:11.199
in 56. He came over on a ship. Yeah. And I remember

00:59:11.199 --> 00:59:12.679
him telling me stories about how sick everyone

00:59:12.679 --> 00:59:14.599
was getting on the ships, you know, from the

00:59:14.599 --> 00:59:16.420
turbulent tides. He came over on a ship and then

00:59:16.420 --> 00:59:18.900
he took a train from New York all the way to

00:59:18.900 --> 00:59:21.460
California. He knew he wanted to, he didn't stop

00:59:21.460 --> 00:59:24.300
in Boston. That's where his sister stayed. He

00:59:24.300 --> 00:59:27.119
wanted to be by the beach and, you know, Hollywood

00:59:27.119 --> 00:59:31.320
had this allure for so many people. And that's

00:59:31.320 --> 00:59:34.000
where he ended up. But my dad. being deaf, learned

00:59:34.000 --> 00:59:36.780
to speak English fluently by going to the LA

00:59:36.780 --> 00:59:39.239
public library in downtown LA and sitting and

00:59:39.239 --> 00:59:42.659
reading books. Wow. We learned English. What

00:59:42.659 --> 00:59:45.400
a good, everything's possible, right? Absolutely.

00:59:45.579 --> 00:59:48.559
Wow. Like just what a strong individual, you

00:59:48.559 --> 00:59:50.420
know what I'm saying? It's a, it's a cool story.

00:59:50.599 --> 00:59:54.360
I got to wonder if it's, if it's, you know, we're

00:59:54.360 --> 00:59:57.440
too coddled here in America that like, you know,

00:59:57.440 --> 01:00:00.340
stuff like that would, would play with our minds

01:00:00.340 --> 01:00:02.619
and maybe we don't. get better from it we get

01:00:02.619 --> 01:00:05.699
worse and blah blah blah but you know for for

01:00:05.699 --> 01:00:08.159
your dad to come over kind of leave that stuff

01:00:08.159 --> 01:00:11.980
behind and of course you know subconscious things

01:00:11.980 --> 01:00:14.539
like in sleep and stuff like that but it's just

01:00:14.539 --> 01:00:17.440
amazing how he was able to leave that behind

01:00:17.440 --> 01:00:21.159
treat the family right learn you know by going

01:00:21.159 --> 01:00:23.579
to libraries and reading books like that stuff

01:00:23.579 --> 01:00:26.380
like i feel like americans don't have they don't

01:00:26.380 --> 01:00:29.099
have that drive like if we're not in school learning

01:00:29.099 --> 01:00:31.730
you know then You're not going to a library to

01:00:31.730 --> 01:00:34.670
pick up books to learn and all that stuff. It's

01:00:34.670 --> 01:00:38.750
like an amazing story. Thank you. Yeah, you know,

01:00:38.769 --> 01:00:41.329
I've had this discussion with people before about

01:00:41.329 --> 01:00:45.650
how I just think that that generation, like our

01:00:45.650 --> 01:00:48.010
grandparents' generation, my dad was an older

01:00:48.010 --> 01:00:50.170
dad. I was 45 when he was born, so he was always

01:00:50.170 --> 01:00:53.570
a bit older than my friends' parents. They are

01:00:53.570 --> 01:00:58.460
cut from a different cloth. Yeah. You know, you've

01:00:58.460 --> 01:01:01.920
got, and I think generationally, not just Americans,

01:01:01.960 --> 01:01:04.440
although I think we're very comfortable, but

01:01:04.440 --> 01:01:06.599
my husband's from the UK and he's been hearing

01:01:06.599 --> 01:01:08.639
that it's very similar in the UK as well with

01:01:08.639 --> 01:01:11.619
the youth. Just too comfortable. Everything's

01:01:11.619 --> 01:01:14.599
too comfortable and too easy. They have no actual

01:01:14.599 --> 01:01:17.719
problems. They have made up problems. But you

01:01:17.719 --> 01:01:19.920
got everyone's trauma dumping online all the

01:01:19.920 --> 01:01:22.000
time. And I'm just like, going through a breakup

01:01:22.000 --> 01:01:25.739
sucks, but it's not like, come on. Exactly. That's

01:01:25.739 --> 01:01:29.639
your trauma. I have to work eight hours at Starbucks.

01:01:29.780 --> 01:01:34.139
I'm going to cry. I saw that video. That was

01:01:34.139 --> 01:01:37.820
hilarious. So I feel like it, like, or like we

01:01:37.820 --> 01:01:39.940
could never go through what my dad's generation

01:01:39.940 --> 01:01:44.760
went through and survive really good. You know,

01:01:44.780 --> 01:01:49.519
I mean, we do cry in the corner. So it's, it's,

01:01:49.519 --> 01:01:51.519
it's really scary. If you think about it, like

01:01:51.519 --> 01:01:54.280
we ever had a draft or whatever. Yeah. Oh my

01:01:54.280 --> 01:01:59.719
God. Well, I just think about when all these

01:01:59.719 --> 01:02:02.860
younger generations get into power, like when

01:02:02.860 --> 01:02:07.019
they're holding office, it's going to be weird.

01:02:07.360 --> 01:02:10.420
They'll probably have the same ideals as famous

01:02:10.420 --> 01:02:13.800
Hollywood actors and actresses, like shit that

01:02:13.800 --> 01:02:15.639
doesn't make sense to the normal person because

01:02:15.639 --> 01:02:18.480
they're not living that normal person life. You

01:02:18.480 --> 01:02:22.019
hear some actors talking like, oh, this is good.

01:02:22.539 --> 01:02:24.800
For who? That doesn't sound good for anybody,

01:02:25.119 --> 01:02:30.199
but okay. Totally. So, Morima, the way we do

01:02:30.199 --> 01:02:32.460
this here is we always leave the audience wanting

01:02:32.460 --> 01:02:35.019
more from our guests, and I know that they definitely

01:02:35.019 --> 01:02:38.739
want more from you, but if you want to tell them

01:02:38.739 --> 01:02:41.199
where they could find all your social media stuff,

01:02:41.360 --> 01:02:43.420
websites, whatever you want to promote, and then,

01:02:43.460 --> 01:02:46.219
of course, we'll list them in the bottom of the

01:02:46.219 --> 01:02:47.960
episode in the description and stuff, but this

01:02:47.960 --> 01:02:51.260
way there's a vocal. Awesome. Thank you. Yeah.

01:02:51.340 --> 01:02:56.119

my blog in about a month, but I'm going to get

01:03:16.949 --> 01:03:19.269

texas because we're going there soon Oh, nice.

01:04:55.519 --> 01:04:57.980
Awesome. Yeah, I've been meaning to go. That

01:04:57.980 --> 01:04:59.880
was one state that I was looking into. I have

01:04:59.880 --> 01:05:01.619
a good friend that lives in Frisco, and I have

01:05:01.619 --> 01:05:04.199
friends in Austin as well. So I would love to

01:05:04.199 --> 01:05:07.760
do that. As in San Francisco? No, Frisco, Texas.

01:05:08.219 --> 01:05:10.420
Oh, okay. I was like, wait a second. Don't go

01:05:10.420 --> 01:05:12.039
there. I heard people are shitting in the streets

01:05:12.039 --> 01:05:14.900
there. No, I know. No, no, no, no. Definitely

01:05:14.900 --> 01:05:16.940
not. Which is a shame. Such a beautiful city.

01:05:17.239 --> 01:05:20.860
But Portland and Seattle. I can't believe people

01:05:20.860 --> 01:05:22.840
put up with that with the taxes they pay over

01:05:22.840 --> 01:05:26.010
there. This is just me talking. They continue

01:05:26.010 --> 01:05:28.250
to vote for the blues. It's crazy. I just feel

01:05:28.250 --> 01:05:30.829
like, like you, like people are in a bit of a

01:05:30.829 --> 01:05:33.630
bubble. Cause I, I know I was like in, in to

01:05:33.630 --> 01:05:35.309
an extent, I knew there was a lot of dysfunction,

01:05:35.489 --> 01:05:38.769
but it's almost like you kind of get desensitized,

01:05:38.769 --> 01:05:40.409
right? Like that's what you see every day. So

01:05:40.409 --> 01:05:43.329
you're just accepted as normal. A lot of people

01:05:43.329 --> 01:05:45.469
don't realize that life can be very different

01:05:45.469 --> 01:05:47.809
just across. Yeah. You don't, you don't have

01:05:47.809 --> 01:05:50.570
to walk around mounds of human feces and needles.

01:05:50.929 --> 01:05:53.829
You don't have to be like that. Stupid me. I

01:05:53.829 --> 01:05:58.530
thought we did. Right. Well, and that's, you

01:05:58.530 --> 01:06:00.570
know, not to keep this going for too much. That's

01:06:00.570 --> 01:06:02.130
the, one of the main reasons that I decided to

01:06:02.130 --> 01:06:03.949
leave is I started to observe how differently

01:06:03.949 --> 01:06:08.769
the schools were handling things when the C vid

01:06:08.769 --> 01:06:11.170
was floating around. And I was like, okay, no,

01:06:11.289 --> 01:06:15.130
go and do this differently elsewhere. I'm not

01:06:15.130 --> 01:06:16.650
going to put my kids through another year of

01:06:16.650 --> 01:06:19.360
this. Good for you. My kids were in Montessori

01:06:19.360 --> 01:06:21.659
then, so they were out of school for like two

01:06:21.659 --> 01:06:25.380
weeks and went back with masks. I'll take that.

01:06:25.519 --> 01:06:28.099
That's fine. They can go to school. It was almost

01:06:28.099 --> 01:06:33.179
two years that our schools were ridiculous. Crazy.

01:06:33.760 --> 01:06:36.420
Amazing. Well, we'll leave it on that note, folks.

01:06:36.519 --> 01:06:39.320
Thanks again, Marima, for coming on. Thank you,

01:06:39.340 --> 01:06:41.610
Marima. Great to see you. Good to see you guys

01:06:41.610 --> 01:06:45.110
too. So nice. And yeah, anytime you want to talk

01:06:45.110 --> 01:06:46.909
some more, let me know. I've got lots to share.

01:06:47.389 --> 01:06:53.050
Awesome. Peace. Peace. Alrighty then. So that

01:06:53.050 --> 01:06:56.530
was Marima McKay. I don't know why I said her

01:06:56.530 --> 01:06:58.849
last name there, but I feel like she could get

01:06:58.849 --> 01:07:02.010
away with just Marima, like Cher, Madonna, just

01:07:02.010 --> 01:07:04.269
the one name. That's right. Just one name. Exactly.

01:07:04.909 --> 01:07:06.809
Strong. I'm going, I didn't know she had a YouTube

01:07:06.809 --> 01:07:08.329
channel. I'm going right. I'm going to right

01:07:08.329 --> 01:07:10.860
now. I'm going to subscribe. Yeah, dude, you'll

01:07:10.860 --> 01:07:14.119
like it, man. That's where I got the home remedies

01:07:14.119 --> 01:07:17.239
instead of Botox that she was talking about.

01:07:17.460 --> 01:07:21.280
I haven't tried it, as you can see. But yeah,

01:07:21.420 --> 01:07:24.119
she's got a lot of cool videos and 50 years old

01:07:24.119 --> 01:07:25.920
to look like that. I mean, she must know what

01:07:25.920 --> 01:07:28.920
the hell she's talking about. Something's working.

01:07:29.199 --> 01:07:33.340
Yeah. And I'm glad I got to know what the relocation

01:07:33.340 --> 01:07:36.380
coach was like. I kind of had an idea and stuff

01:07:36.380 --> 01:07:38.500
like that, but... the way she described it is

01:07:38.500 --> 01:07:42.300
a lot cooler. I'm like, you know, like who would

01:07:42.300 --> 01:07:44.400
think to use that service? Like if I ever thought

01:07:44.400 --> 01:07:46.579
about moving from one state to another, not for

01:07:46.579 --> 01:07:49.300
a job relocation, but just to move, like I wouldn't

01:07:49.300 --> 01:07:51.400
even think to, to call up a service like that.

01:07:51.420 --> 01:07:54.400
Cause I didn't know they exist, but yeah. Yeah.

01:07:55.219 --> 01:07:58.340
What a great fucking thing. And then for corporations,

01:07:58.519 --> 01:08:00.739
of course, of course it makes sense because they're

01:08:00.739 --> 01:08:03.639
constantly relocating people and all that jazz.

01:08:03.780 --> 01:08:07.579
Right. But. And it's got to be a hard job, too.

01:08:07.639 --> 01:08:13.059
So if somebody's coming from Japan and relocating

01:08:13.059 --> 01:08:14.820
to the United States, or vice versa, if they're

01:08:14.820 --> 01:08:16.560
going from the United States and relocating to

01:08:16.560 --> 01:08:18.699
Japan, she's got to know her shit. She's got

01:08:18.699 --> 01:08:20.960
to go on and see. I was going to say, when she

01:08:20.960 --> 01:08:22.439
was talking about people coming from other countries,

01:08:22.539 --> 01:08:27.039
these are legal immigrants. Yes. The right way.

01:08:27.579 --> 01:08:30.920
Right. Isn't it weird how that works? There's

01:08:30.920 --> 01:08:33.699
a right way to come over here. I had no idea.

01:08:34.630 --> 01:08:38.369
just thought it's just strange man strange birds

01:08:38.369 --> 01:08:41.489
uh our president's paying attention to it yeah

01:08:41.489 --> 01:08:46.489
okay yes so finally he's only had what three

01:08:46.489 --> 01:08:49.390
and a half years to three years of saying there's

01:08:49.390 --> 01:08:52.050
no border crisis then it's trump's fault and

01:08:52.050 --> 01:08:53.970
i can't do anything about it and all of a sudden

01:08:53.970 --> 01:08:55.569
now i can do something about it okay yeah six

01:08:55.569 --> 01:08:58.090
months out from the election yes now he's gonna

01:08:58.090 --> 01:09:01.949
do something dangling the car As long as he's

01:09:01.949 --> 01:09:04.090
not shitting his pants on stage, I guess we're

01:09:04.090 --> 01:09:07.729
all good. And it's crazy how he says it with

01:09:07.729 --> 01:09:10.970
the same breath as, you know, like he's being

01:09:10.970 --> 01:09:14.189
so honest. Like, yeah, I never had any business

01:09:14.189 --> 01:09:17.069
dealings with my son's business partners. That

01:09:17.069 --> 01:09:21.029
dude is a car -carrying fucking mega, mega narcissist.

01:09:21.369 --> 01:09:23.630
It's crazy. It's wild. They're like, but dude,

01:09:23.729 --> 01:09:27.300
you're in the emails with them. Exactly. I didn't

01:09:27.300 --> 01:09:30.000
know that was him. Okay, but there's text messages

01:09:30.000 --> 01:09:32.140
with you, part of it. Yeah, but I didn't realize.

01:09:32.279 --> 01:09:34.619
But now there's pictures of you out to dinner

01:09:34.619 --> 01:09:37.340
with Hunter and his business partner. And there's

01:09:37.340 --> 01:09:41.380
audio of Hunter talking to somebody in China

01:09:41.380 --> 01:09:44.560
saying, my father is sitting here with me. Right.

01:09:44.779 --> 01:09:46.600
Who's that, Biden? You didn't remember that?

01:09:46.939 --> 01:09:50.140
Right. Or you didn't. Yeah. And he just lies

01:09:50.140 --> 01:09:53.500
so well, dude. Like, you're not acting. You're

01:09:53.500 --> 01:09:56.420
a fucking liar, and they come out of your mouth

01:09:56.420 --> 01:10:00.359
so easy that it's scary to be a person watching

01:10:00.359 --> 01:10:02.079
you. That's what narcissists do. They convince

01:10:02.079 --> 01:10:04.720
themselves that's the truth, and then they give

01:10:04.720 --> 01:10:08.680
it to you like that's the actual fact. Insane.

01:10:09.000 --> 01:10:12.460
But, you know, it's funny because you have no

01:10:12.460 --> 01:10:16.359
one fact -checking him. All MSN and all the social

01:10:16.359 --> 01:10:17.960
media, they fact -check the shit out of Trump

01:10:17.960 --> 01:10:21.470
all the fucking time, and then... They don't

01:10:21.470 --> 01:10:25.090
fact check Biden at all. And he lies about the

01:10:25.090 --> 01:10:27.250
dumbest shit. I grew up in the Greek neighborhood.

01:10:27.350 --> 01:10:29.090
I grew up in the Puerto Rican neighborhood. I

01:10:29.090 --> 01:10:30.770
grew up in the black neighborhood. I grew up

01:10:30.770 --> 01:10:33.489
in the Irish neighborhood. God damn. How many

01:10:33.489 --> 01:10:36.189
neighborhoods you live in, buddy? Right. Yeah.

01:10:36.350 --> 01:10:38.189
And he's like, like you said, he's lying about

01:10:38.189 --> 01:10:40.710
shit that he doesn't need to lie about. Right.

01:10:41.050 --> 01:10:43.800
Like. Okay, I get your big lies, but now these

01:10:43.800 --> 01:10:46.520
little lies, what are they about? You're just

01:10:46.520 --> 01:10:49.800
a fucking liar. Do you know what's true? It's

01:10:49.800 --> 01:10:51.560
the caterer to the audience he's talking to.

01:10:51.920 --> 01:10:55.859
Right, 100%. And that's the slipperiest motherfucker

01:10:55.859 --> 01:10:58.880
that there could be. You're a chameleon motherfucker.

01:10:59.319 --> 01:11:03.359
You're not yourself. You adapt to whatever environment

01:11:03.359 --> 01:11:06.859
you are in, and then you spew bullshit to those

01:11:06.859 --> 01:11:10.159
people and say it like it's the truth. And when

01:11:10.159 --> 01:11:12.750
people call you on it, You still double down

01:11:12.750 --> 01:11:18.029
and don't say, you got me. It's crazy. You saw

01:11:18.029 --> 01:11:20.850
the speech that he gave at the D -Day commemoration.

01:11:21.430 --> 01:11:24.770
They were playing the Ronald Reagan speech that

01:11:24.770 --> 01:11:27.930
he gave at the D -Day commemoration back in the

01:11:27.930 --> 01:11:31.770
80s. Basically ripped the whole speech off. I

01:11:31.770 --> 01:11:34.250
wouldn't put it past them. Whole thing. They

01:11:34.250 --> 01:11:36.250
would play the clip of Reagan speaking and then

01:11:36.250 --> 01:11:40.090
Biden speaking. 90 % the same. He changed a couple

01:11:40.090 --> 01:11:42.260
words or phrases here and there. Just the whole

01:11:42.260 --> 01:11:44.500
fucking speech he just ripped off. From like

01:11:44.500 --> 01:11:47.899
where Reagan was like, this is a Republican idea.

01:11:47.979 --> 01:11:49.859
Did he at least change it? This is a Democrat

01:11:49.859 --> 01:11:54.500
idea. Yeah, exactly. Well, I mean, but he's done

01:11:54.500 --> 01:11:56.060
that in the past. He's ripped off other people's

01:11:56.060 --> 01:12:00.300
speeches. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I mean, the first

01:12:00.300 --> 01:12:02.920
time he ran for president, he failed because

01:12:02.920 --> 01:12:05.880
everyone's like, you're a liar. Like they proved

01:12:05.880 --> 01:12:08.260
he was a liar, lied about his college transcripts,

01:12:08.260 --> 01:12:10.279
lied about all this bullshit, and he had to bow

01:12:10.279 --> 01:12:14.079
out. And then all of a sudden now, 50, 40 years

01:12:14.079 --> 01:12:16.939
later, whatever it is, 30 years later, he's president

01:12:16.939 --> 01:12:18.619
and just still fucking lying through his teeth

01:12:18.619 --> 01:12:22.000
about everything. Well, dude, Joe Rogan said

01:12:22.000 --> 01:12:25.960
that it was either the late 80s or early 90s.

01:12:25.979 --> 01:12:28.600
They used to have a night at the comedy store

01:12:28.600 --> 01:12:31.880
called the Biden Night. This is the 80s, early

01:12:31.880 --> 01:12:36.560
90s, where comedians would do another comedian's

01:12:36.560 --> 01:12:39.170
act. Right. Because they were stealing the act

01:12:39.170 --> 01:12:41.729
from them and putting it out as their own. And

01:12:41.729 --> 01:12:44.130
they were doing this in the late 80s, early 90s,

01:12:44.130 --> 01:12:46.130
calling it the, you know, the Biden night because

01:12:46.130 --> 01:12:49.270
he was already known back then for fucking stealing

01:12:49.270 --> 01:12:52.590
speeches and lying about it. So it's like, wow.

01:12:53.130 --> 01:12:56.229
Like, I didn't know he was a lying piece of shit

01:12:56.229 --> 01:12:58.029
till he was a vice president. You know, then

01:12:58.029 --> 01:13:00.310
you look into his past and you start to see,

01:13:00.409 --> 01:13:03.090
oh, OK, this is for a long time. The fact that

01:13:03.090 --> 01:13:06.029
it was known that long and shit was going on

01:13:06.029 --> 01:13:08.010
like that in the comedy world, like based on

01:13:08.010 --> 01:13:10.789
him being a lying and stealing person and he

01:13:10.789 --> 01:13:13.470
got through all of it and became VP and president.

01:13:13.489 --> 01:13:16.289
It's like, wow, what the fuck do you need to

01:13:16.289 --> 01:13:19.909
do in order to not, you know, you know, I guess

01:13:19.909 --> 01:13:23.010
you could be anything. He was selected and installed.

01:13:23.229 --> 01:13:26.010
So, you know, that's what we got. Yeah. Yeah.

01:13:26.090 --> 01:13:28.829
And now we got, and there's more and more little

01:13:28.829 --> 01:13:31.109
clips coming out of all this, all this election.

01:13:32.350 --> 01:13:35.010

that they've found so far wow you know they so

01:13:52.529 --> 01:13:54.489
evidence comes out but like mainstream media

01:13:54.489 --> 01:13:56.170
doesn't cover it and they just keep saying there's

01:13:56.170 --> 01:13:58.170
no evidence there's no evidence that's how they

01:13:58.170 --> 01:14:01.050
sell the lie that there was no you know nothing

01:14:01.050 --> 01:14:05.470
going on in the 2020 election so shady dude that

01:14:05.470 --> 01:14:09.229

an election you know what i'm saying like the

01:14:11.229 --> 01:14:13.310
well exactly they're causing the ultimate they

01:14:13.310 --> 01:14:17.789
interfered in the 20 2016 election with the hillary

01:14:17.789 --> 01:14:21.029
dossier the bullshit russian dossier that i mean

01:14:21.029 --> 01:14:22.829
even bill maher still says well no there were

01:14:22.829 --> 01:14:24.689
some true stuff and it's like no it was all fucking

01:14:24.689 --> 01:14:27.310

for it out of her campaign She busted for it.

01:14:32.340 --> 01:14:35.260
She destroyed 33 ,000 emails, destroyed her fucking

01:14:35.260 --> 01:14:41.500
phones, bleached them. The craziest stuff that

01:14:41.500 --> 01:14:44.079
violates federal law and nothing happens to her.

01:14:45.699 --> 01:14:52.220
It's just ridiculous. It really is. Boobay, do

01:14:52.220 --> 01:14:56.199
you have anything for us for Bob A's world? If

01:14:56.199 --> 01:15:00.489
you're there, he might have fell asleep. Driving.

01:15:00.670 --> 01:15:03.029
And he does that every now and again. He's narcoleptic.

01:15:03.510 --> 01:15:06.810
Also sleep driving. Great. What are you talking

01:15:06.810 --> 01:15:09.810
about? I'm joking. What you mean, man? What you

01:15:09.810 --> 01:15:16.029
mean, though? That was a great guess. Mariam,

01:15:16.149 --> 01:15:20.569
right? Marima. Marima. Okay. All right. Yeah.

01:15:21.810 --> 01:15:25.609
That's as bad as me. It's a different name. It's

01:15:25.609 --> 01:15:27.710
the first time I ever heard that name, actually.

01:15:28.640 --> 01:15:32.840
He's in the wall again. She was great. She was

01:15:32.840 --> 01:15:36.159
awesome. She was. Beautiful girl, man. 50 years

01:15:36.159 --> 01:15:39.560
old to have that skin and natural products. You're

01:15:39.560 --> 01:15:41.880
not using Botox and stuff like that. God bless.

01:15:43.659 --> 01:15:45.520
That's the best way to do it. That's the best

01:15:45.520 --> 01:15:49.199
way to go. I started touching my face with human

01:15:49.199 --> 01:15:52.979
feces and as you can see, it does a body good.

01:15:53.739 --> 01:15:58.859
Yummy. Some people use urine. Well, I drink my

01:15:58.859 --> 01:16:02.539
own urine to stay alive. Well, you can drink

01:16:02.539 --> 01:16:07.579
your urine twice if you're in a dehydration.

01:16:07.859 --> 01:16:10.520
Is that true? Yeah. If you're like in the desert,

01:16:10.699 --> 01:16:12.760
you can drink your urine twice after that. It

01:16:12.760 --> 01:16:15.359
will kill you, basically. Oh, my God. Because

01:16:15.359 --> 01:16:18.739
I guess you're peeing out a lot of toxins and

01:16:18.739 --> 01:16:20.920
then you're drinking it. But then like what's

01:16:20.920 --> 01:16:23.500
going in is toxic. So it's like eventually you

01:16:23.500 --> 01:16:24.779
get to the point where it's like you're drinking

01:16:24.779 --> 01:16:30.659
straight up toxin. Yeah. Wow. Wow. Anywho. What

01:16:30.659 --> 01:16:32.899
do you got, Bobby? What do you got? For the gracious,

01:16:32.939 --> 01:16:35.260
too, don't drink your own urine. That's right.

01:16:35.520 --> 01:16:38.960
Only do it twice. PSA, public service announcement.

01:16:40.500 --> 01:16:44.520
Bobby, do you have anything for us? Yeah, hold

01:16:44.520 --> 01:16:47.939
on. Let me see. I wanted to show you this coin

01:16:47.939 --> 01:16:52.359
that I told you about, I think, two weeks ago.

01:16:52.880 --> 01:17:00.960
Yes. On Mikami. Yes. Yeah, it's up about 700

01:17:00.960 --> 01:17:06.039
% since the last time I told you guys. Wow. So

01:17:06.039 --> 01:17:11.579
if I were to have bought $100 worth, I would

01:17:11.579 --> 01:17:19.119
have how much money today? $700. Wow. Wow, wow,

01:17:19.119 --> 01:17:23.939
wow. Yeah. So, yeah, here's the chart for it.

01:17:23.960 --> 01:17:27.439
You can see the parabolic. It just went straight

01:17:27.439 --> 01:17:32.479
up. And this is actually the creator of Shiba

01:17:32.479 --> 01:17:36.720
Inu. He's the creator of this. If you want to

01:17:36.720 --> 01:17:38.659
check out the website, I recommend it. The website

01:17:38.659 --> 01:17:42.760
is awesome. This project is going to probably

01:17:42.760 --> 01:17:45.560
go to multiple billions of dollars by the end

01:17:45.560 --> 01:17:49.100
of this year. I'm not going to guarantee anything,

01:17:49.319 --> 01:17:55.970
but it's not financial advice, people. You know,

01:17:56.010 --> 01:17:58.310
if you could look into it, you know, you do it,

01:17:58.350 --> 01:18:03.130
you know. But yeah, like Bobby said, this is

01:18:03.130 --> 01:18:05.369
not financial advice, but it happened to be.

01:18:05.449 --> 01:18:08.250
He told us about that a couple of weeks ago and

01:18:08.250 --> 01:18:11.430
it turned out to be, you know, something that

01:18:11.430 --> 01:18:15.470
worked out. So always winner so far. Yeah. Always

01:18:15.470 --> 01:18:17.989
do your own research. Check. Don't put anything

01:18:17.989 --> 01:18:20.949
into crypto or the stock that you can't handle

01:18:20.949 --> 01:18:24.659
to lose. I always say that's a good idea. Like,

01:18:24.659 --> 01:18:27.640
you know, if you could lose a hundred bucks,

01:18:27.699 --> 01:18:29.239
throw a hundred bucks in there. If a hundred

01:18:29.239 --> 01:18:31.319
bucks is a lot to you and it won't make it to

01:18:31.319 --> 01:18:34.300
your next paycheck, then don't put that in there.

01:18:34.520 --> 01:18:39.760
Correct. Yeah. So yeah. Bobby, did you, were

01:18:39.760 --> 01:18:41.640
you in it to win it when you were telling us

01:18:41.640 --> 01:18:43.140
about that? Or was it just something you were

01:18:43.140 --> 01:18:47.140
looking into? No, I was in it. I was in it. Cool.

01:18:47.560 --> 01:18:50.739
Yeah. Bobby's got a lot of money. If you guys

01:18:50.739 --> 01:18:53.079
want to go hit them up, and ask him for some

01:18:53.079 --> 01:18:58.399
shekels. He's over there in New York. Anything

01:18:58.399 --> 01:19:01.500
else for us, Bobby, before we say and bid the

01:19:01.500 --> 01:19:06.439
show farewell and adieu? Show 41, man, we're

01:19:06.439 --> 01:19:09.180
getting old. It's like Sum 41, which was a band,

01:19:09.539 --> 01:19:12.960
pretty cool band. They're still a band. They

01:19:12.960 --> 01:19:17.159
are still a band. Yes. Actually, Gigi toured

01:19:17.159 --> 01:19:19.939
with Sum 41 last year. That's right. I saw that

01:19:19.939 --> 01:19:23.220
on there. She's coming on. Yes. She's got a huge

01:19:23.220 --> 01:19:27.060
bio of artists she's worked with. She's been

01:19:27.060 --> 01:19:31.659
doing it a long time. Pretty dope. I just want

01:19:31.659 --> 01:19:36.060
to say this has been going great. This has been

01:19:36.060 --> 01:19:41.699
an awesome adventure so far. I want to thank

01:19:41.699 --> 01:19:44.359
you guys. Thank you for being here and coming

01:19:44.359 --> 01:19:47.520
along on it. Appreciate it. I want to thank everybody.

01:19:48.939 --> 01:19:52.180
I appreciate it. You know, it's very cool. We

01:19:52.180 --> 01:19:56.060
appreciate it. I'm hearing a lot of good, good,

01:19:56.100 --> 01:20:00.659
good, uh, good, um, feedback from people. So

01:20:00.659 --> 01:20:03.720
it's definitely a positive thing. I got to wonder

01:20:03.720 --> 01:20:05.699
if the audience didn't know better, if they just

01:20:05.699 --> 01:20:08.680
thought you were somewhere with like a huge bag

01:20:08.680 --> 01:20:11.140
of marijuana next to you and like fucking four

01:20:11.140 --> 01:20:14.159
joints in your mouth, the way you talk is like

01:20:14.159 --> 01:20:19.600
very like, you know, Slow and stoner -esque and,

01:20:19.640 --> 01:20:24.180
you know, thank you. But that's Bob A's cadence.

01:20:25.399 --> 01:20:28.079
Morning, noon, or night. That's where he is.

01:20:28.739 --> 01:20:32.560
So in the past few days, I've gotten a bunch

01:20:32.560 --> 01:20:37.039

01:21:00.100 --> 01:21:01.520

01:21:01.560 --> 01:21:03.859
I was like, wow, this is cool. But I just love,
