- 0:51Speaker 1: that takes baby steps and it's all very new.
- 0:54Speaker 2: And well, let's just dive in. I guess right. Okay,
- 1:00Speaker 2: So how are you doing?
- 1:01Speaker 1: Obviously some shocking things have happened in the last two weeks.
- 1:05Speaker 2: How are you feeling how handling things? Oh, it's been
- 1:08Speaker 2: three weeks, so I'm still taking it all in and
- 1:13Speaker 2: trying to understand to to process it. You know, I
- 1:18Speaker 2: think that, like in every relationship, you kind of like
- 1:21Speaker 2: go back, you know, to the seven years and we've
- 1:23Speaker 2: been together, because even though we were married for two
- 1:26Speaker 2: years and three months, because I count every day, you
- 1:31Speaker 2: just can't help yourself but to go back to those
- 1:33Speaker 2: seven years and say what went wrong? Right, I know
- 1:37Speaker 2: you're gonna make me cry.
- 1:37Speaker 1: Wait, traice system hard to talk, I know, I know,
- 1:42Speaker 1: I know, all right, take your time, take your time.
- 1:45Speaker 2: Time for the first week, for the first two weeks.
- 1:48Speaker 2: Actually still today it's been three weeks, and I'm still
- 1:50Speaker 2: going back in my head, like what happened? Yeah, And
- 1:55Speaker 2: you know, I'm a positive person, so I try to
- 1:58Speaker 2: think about all the beautiful times and we had together,
- 2:01Speaker 2: all of our beautiful troops, and I'm very positive. So
- 2:05Speaker 2: I want to remember that, you know, And I don't
- 2:07Speaker 2: want to have any anger. But I understand that an
- 2:10Speaker 2: anger is also one of the grieving stations. Stations are
- 2:15Speaker 2: I said, session, sorry, one of the stages of stages. Yeah,
- 2:18Speaker 2: I don't even know what I'm saying, okay, because I
- 2:20Speaker 2: find myself like lost. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you've been like
- 2:24Speaker 2: the blindsided. You're getting your bearings. Yes, So, but like
- 2:31Speaker 2: I said, it's been really really difficult. It's been very painful, hurtful,
- 2:40Speaker 2: and you know, I'm just getting through it. And I
- 2:42Speaker 2: want to thank you that have been like my rock,
- 2:45Speaker 2: have been by my side every day, and everybody, everyone's
- 2:50Speaker 2: all pour of love and support.
- 2:52Speaker 1: Yeah, well everybody loves you and you feel good and
- 2:56Speaker 1: be happy.
- 2:56Speaker 2: And my children, you know, Peter and Frankie that I
- 2:59Speaker 2: have been, you know, by my side. And I just
- 3:03Speaker 2: believe that the only way to heal is with love
- 3:07Speaker 2: and through love. So I'm very lucky to have that
- 3:10Speaker 2: because I really do believe that love is the healing power.
- 3:13Speaker 2: It is. And you know what, you give so much love,
- 3:15Speaker 2: how you're not going to get it back. When you
- 3:17Speaker 2: give love, it comes back. When you give anger and hate,
- 3:21Speaker 2: that's what you get back. No, I don't want to
- 3:22Speaker 2: feel that. I'm never going I felt anything of you know,
- 3:26Speaker 2: hate or angry because I still love him and like
- 3:29Speaker 2: we love each other. It's not because we don't love
- 3:31Speaker 2: each other, but it's just very sad that I guess
- 3:35Speaker 2: we can figure out a way, you know, to to
- 3:37Speaker 2: fix things. And and that's why I was in such shock,
- 3:40Speaker 2: because I'm like a fighter, right.
- 3:42Speaker 1: Right, Well, somebody gave up somebody.
- 3:45Speaker 2: And I was never expecting that. You know, I thought
- 3:49Speaker 2: things were good. I wasn't either, right, I really was.
- 3:52Speaker 2: So it's been really shocking and I'm devastated. You know,
- 3:58Speaker 2: I'm pretending for tending but you know, to be okay.
- 4:02Speaker 2: But you know, I cry a lot. I stay busy.
- 4:06Speaker 2: I stay busy, which helps me a lot always, you know,
- 4:09Speaker 2: to think less of my own internal things.
- 4:12Speaker 1: You're very good at that, because I'm the first one
- 4:14Speaker 1: to lay down and put a blanket over my head
- 4:18Speaker 1: and just isolate. I isolate and lick my own wounds.
- 4:21Speaker 1: But you're very good at keeping busy.
- 4:22Speaker 2: But you also have Frankie. Yeah, well, I have no choice.
- 4:25Speaker 2: I have to be strong and I have to keep
- 4:27Speaker 2: on going. Yeah, I have to keep on going. I have,
- 4:30Speaker 2: you know, two sons. I have a business and you know,
- 4:34Speaker 2: and I have a life. I just can't afford to be,
- 4:38Speaker 2: you know, at home in my bed. Then that's not
- 4:41Speaker 2: how I heal, right. You know, for me, healing is
- 4:44Speaker 2: to be around keepers that love me. For me, healing
- 4:47Speaker 2: is you know, to go on walks to exercise. For me,
- 4:50Speaker 2: healing is you know, talking to people, just getting it
- 4:53Speaker 2: all out.
- 4:55Speaker 1: Everyone deals differently, everybody.
- 4:58Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I'm very religious, so obviously I pray
- 5:01Speaker 2: a lot into prayer, you know, and praying a night
- 5:05Speaker 2: helps me fall asleep. I mean, for the first two
- 5:07Speaker 2: or three nights, I didn't even sleep, so you know,
- 5:11Speaker 2: I'm getting there, but I'm surprised you're sleeping already because
- 5:14Speaker 2: that's sleeping like five hours. But I mean for the
- 5:18Speaker 2: first two nights, like when the news broke out before that,
- 5:21Speaker 2: because I knew a few days earlier. I you know,
- 5:26Speaker 2: I just didn't sleep for like two straight nights, just
- 5:29Speaker 2: thinking it was like it was like a nightmare, like,
- 5:31Speaker 2: oh my god, what is this? Like I still think
- 5:33Speaker 2: this is real, Like I still think that maybe there's,
- 5:37Speaker 2: you know, a chance for us to to fix it
- 5:40Speaker 2: because we love each other. So for me, love has
- 5:43Speaker 2: always been such a powerful source. But you know, some
- 5:47Speaker 2: people argue and say, you know, love is not enough,
- 5:50Speaker 2: you know, and we're you know, into each other, we
- 5:53Speaker 2: like each other, like, you know, it was just I
- 5:56Speaker 2: don't know, like I'm still again just wrapping my thoughts around,
- 6:00Speaker 2: my head around it and just trying to understand how
- 6:04Speaker 2: we got here. Mm hmmmm hmm. Yeah. Yeah.
- 6:08Speaker 1: So and let me ask you something, because you know,
- 6:11Speaker 1: when the news hit the press. I remember someone DMed
- 6:16Speaker 1: it to me on Instagram and then I called you
- 6:19Speaker 1: and I said, oh my god, it's out. We only
- 6:22Speaker 1: knew like three or four days beforehand. What what what
- 6:26Speaker 1: did you think? Where do you think that came from? Like,
- 6:28Speaker 1: how in the world did that get out there?
- 6:30Speaker 2: I have no idea. I don't even know about that.
- 6:32Speaker 2: I know that I was driving and my phone started
- 6:36Speaker 2: blowing up and I had to pull to the side
- 6:38Speaker 2: because I was shaking and crying. I'm sorry. It was
- 6:40Speaker 2: actually talking no Johnny. I was talking to Johnny, and
- 6:44Speaker 2: Johnny was like, Alexia, please just pull to the side,
- 6:47Speaker 2: and I just like broke down, like couldn't. Like to me,
- 6:49Speaker 2: it's still like a movie. It's like a it's like
- 6:51Speaker 2: a surreal moment, Like I can't believe that this is
- 6:54Speaker 2: happening to me after seven and a half years, Yeah,
- 6:57Speaker 2: has this and like and how much love we had
- 7:00Speaker 2: between us that we will have a conversation and how
- 7:04Speaker 2: well you know, I was never given that opportunity.
- 7:06Speaker 1: Well, because it's like he's not like you. He's not
- 7:09Speaker 1: like you, and he doesn't do things the way that
- 7:12Speaker 1: you do. But I didn't think he'd do them like
- 7:14Speaker 1: this and surprise you. But some people just can't handle
- 7:17Speaker 1: the talking, you know, and it takes two.
- 7:20Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, And like I said, I mean for me,
- 7:23Speaker 2: everything I saw, everything was okay. You know, like couples,
- 7:27Speaker 2: you fight on a lot of things. It's very argumentative,
- 7:29Speaker 2: so am I. And so you know, we had some
- 7:32Speaker 2: good fights but that from that, some real good ones
- 7:36Speaker 2: for the books. But you know, but through that, like
- 7:40Speaker 2: I said, we would always you know, have a comeback
- 7:43Speaker 2: and you know, and you know and make up and
- 7:45Speaker 2: what not. Just a couples do right, right, And so
- 7:49Speaker 2: I didn't know that he could have been so unhappy
- 7:52Speaker 2: that he would fill for the worst. Yes, you know,
- 7:54Speaker 2: because I say that it's like a conversation you know,
- 7:56Speaker 2: that you have with somebody, like I feel like I
- 7:59Speaker 2: deserve that. So after seven years, oh my god, that conversation.
- 8:03Speaker 2: That's just not even a normal way to exit a relationship.
- 8:06Speaker 1: You just don't get up and surprise someone and blindside
- 8:11Speaker 1: them and not really have a conversation about it.
- 8:13Speaker 2: Like who does that? I can't think of what relationships
- 8:16Speaker 2: that's the most difficult because you know what divorces happened
- 8:19Speaker 2: every day, separations, breakups and whatnot. But it's not how
- 8:23Speaker 2: you come into the relationship, it's how you leave. And
- 8:27Speaker 2: I would have never expected him to leave like this.
- 8:30Speaker 2: You know, I didn't deserve it. I didn't deserve it,
- 8:33Speaker 2: And that's what I need to tell myself, Like you
- 8:36Speaker 2: did not deserve this, because you kind of like go
- 8:38Speaker 2: back and you start thinking, like, you know, maybe you
- 8:40Speaker 2: know I've been a terrible wife, maybe I've been this,
- 8:43Speaker 2: that and the other.
- 8:44Speaker 1: You kind of start blaming you blame yourself every time.
- 8:47Speaker 1: What did I do wrong? What did I do wrong?
- 8:49Speaker 1: Why wasn't I good enough? Why wasn't I perfect enough?
- 8:51Speaker 1: And then we beat ourselves up, and then we try
- 8:54Speaker 1: to make it because we're fixers.
- 8:55Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you try to make it. But that's always
- 8:57Speaker 2: been me and he knows that, you know. You know,
- 8:59Speaker 2: I'm already to talk yet obviously when I'm talking from
- 9:02Speaker 2: a place of love and because how much I love him,
- 9:04Speaker 2: and I will hopefully continue to speak this way because
- 9:07Speaker 2: I want to feel love in my heart always, absolutely,
- 9:11Speaker 2: you know, towards him. So but I'm just so just
- 9:16Speaker 2: disappointed about the way he handled this, about the way
- 9:21Speaker 2: you know, I just being here, just being here and
- 9:23Speaker 2: having to talk about this, like your my life changed
- 9:26Speaker 2: in a second, like everything in my life, like in
- 9:28Speaker 2: a second.
- 9:29Speaker 1: You know.
- 9:29Speaker 2: It was like on Friday night, we were out at
- 9:32Speaker 2: a restaurant having drinks and dinner, having a good time,
- 9:35Speaker 2: and that's it, and then you know, and then it
- 9:37Speaker 2: was over. So to me, it's been really really tough,
- 9:42Speaker 2: really really difficult. Sorry, my friend, that's been shocking for
- 9:46Speaker 2: me too. I can't even imagine how you feel. Yeah,
- 9:48Speaker 2: I mean, we were supposed to be in New York
- 9:50Speaker 2: right now, right now, right you Actually we're in New York.
- 9:53Speaker 1: We're doing New York, like from New York. We have
- 9:56Speaker 1: an appearance here this weekend because the show must come on,
- 9:59Speaker 1: the show must go on. But this was before, this
- 10:03Speaker 1: has been in the planning stage for six eight weeks now,
- 10:06Speaker 1: so we had planned to come Steve Todd, the four
- 10:10Speaker 1: of us, and then all of this happened. So and
- 10:13Speaker 1: then Steve said, well, you girls just go lectually. Probably
- 10:16Speaker 1: you'll have more fun with her alone. And now I'm
- 10:18Speaker 1: here alone with her, and yeah, there was a whole
- 10:20Speaker 1: plan for us to all be together.
- 10:22Speaker 2: So so to me and that and you know, many
- 10:24Speaker 2: other things, like I said that only him and I know, yeah,
- 10:27Speaker 2: and you know, and that's why I'm feeling the way
- 10:32Speaker 2: that I am right, you know what I mean, And
- 10:33Speaker 2: I can't say that I was blindsided.
- 10:45Speaker 1: So how do you feel at this point? I know
- 10:50Speaker 1: you're doing a lot of prayer and you're trying to
- 10:51Speaker 1: think of the good things, but you know, realistically moving forward,
- 10:56Speaker 1: I mean, at least for me when I have a breakup.
- 11:00Speaker 1: I've never been good at this because I am sure
- 11:02Speaker 1: like a lot of people out there, you glamorize the
- 11:04Speaker 1: good times and they always in your mind outweigh all
- 11:09Speaker 1: of the horrible things. I know, it's just something else
- 11:12Speaker 1: women do and then we think we can fix it
- 11:14Speaker 1: and everything was really perfect even though everything was really horrible.
- 11:19Speaker 2: And I know you're trying to focus on the good things,
- 11:20Speaker 2: but how are you really going to get over this
- 11:23Speaker 2: if you keep just thinking about the good times and
- 11:26Speaker 2: how much you love him? Realistically? I just need to know,
- 11:30Speaker 2: I mean, I just think the prepare that I want
- 11:33Speaker 2: to be, you know, like like I need him in
- 11:35Speaker 2: my life. You know, I'm just not that person that
- 11:38Speaker 2: you have a breakup with and then you'll see them again.
- 11:41Speaker 2: Oh that's what I do.
- 11:43Speaker 1: I'm a Capricorn, I do a drastic cutout, and I
- 11:46Speaker 1: never see you again and never speak to you again.
- 11:48Speaker 2: And that's that I mean, I feel like if the
- 11:50Speaker 2: person really hurt you, and I am hurting right now,
- 11:53Speaker 2: and I believe that he did hurt me because you
- 11:57Speaker 2: know my pain like you knows my pain. And I'm
- 12:00Speaker 2: sure for him as well of course, because again, like
- 12:04Speaker 2: I know, we love each other so much, right, So
- 12:06Speaker 2: I think that that's what makes it harder, because I
- 12:08Speaker 2: think that when you don't like the person and you
- 12:11Speaker 2: want to get out, then it's just easier. You're thank you, right,
- 12:15Speaker 2: But even with all this happening, like I still have
- 12:19Speaker 2: love for him, and I'm still in love with him,
- 12:21Speaker 2: so I know it's gonna take.
- 12:22Speaker 1: That's a beautiful thing because I would be well, my
- 12:27Speaker 1: stage of grieving would be under my covers, obviously starving
- 12:32Speaker 1: myself not starving. I wouldn't even be able to eat,
- 12:35Speaker 1: and I be you know, crying a lot, like eight pounds.
- 12:38Speaker 2: By the way, but I think you look terrific. Just
- 12:41Speaker 2: what was You look gorgeous?
- 12:43Speaker 1: And I see everyone else in the room smiling like, yeah,
- 12:46Speaker 1: go bro, hot bro, revenge body, revenge body.
- 12:51Speaker 2: Now I see why people get the revenge body because
- 12:54Speaker 2: you literally don't eat. And you know, okay, I know
- 12:56Speaker 2: you're you wait a few I'm sad. I eat. I mean,
- 13:03Speaker 2: no matter what emotion I'm going through, I'm gonna. Oh yeah,
- 13:06Speaker 2: I saw you like fives at Pippins the other night.
- 13:09Speaker 2: Yeah I did.
- 13:11Speaker 1: They were so good, but you know what, and I'm
- 13:14Speaker 1: vegan and I ate them. They were humbo.
- 13:17Speaker 2: Yeah I ate. But yeah, you get like this, not
- 13:20Speaker 2: in the stomach that you can eat. You can eat, So.
- 13:25Speaker 1: I know I've been there. But again, I think that
- 13:28Speaker 1: the most.
- 13:28Speaker 2: Important thing has been the outpour of love, support from
- 13:33Speaker 2: friends and family, from my friends, from my family. You know,
- 13:37Speaker 2: even though you guys know I'm not big on social media,
- 13:40Speaker 2: you know I did see and read a lot. I mean,
- 13:44Speaker 2: not all of all of the comments, but you know,
- 13:46Speaker 2: all the comments were just.
- 13:48Speaker 1: Overwhelmingly supportive, supporting me and how much love.
- 13:52Speaker 2: I can feel the love. So thank you for that,
- 13:55Speaker 2: because that makes the world of a difference, because I'm
- 13:57Speaker 2: the kind of person that you all know I feel
- 14:00Speaker 2: about social media and a lot of times, you know,
- 14:03Speaker 2: and this is what makes it so difficult, because we're
- 14:05Speaker 2: public people run a platform and and you guys get
- 14:10Speaker 2: to weigh in and give your opinions, and you know
- 14:14Speaker 2: sometimes that they're not so nice, they're horrible. Because I
- 14:17Speaker 2: did see a few say, oh, of course we saw
- 14:19Speaker 2: it coming. Why do you see things coming? I know
- 14:21Speaker 2: I read those tims like, how did you see it
- 14:23Speaker 2: coming up? I didn't see it coming the show that
- 14:25Speaker 2: you saw for two minutes, two seconds for a time,
- 14:28Speaker 2: and they picked the most salacious clip because that's the
- 14:31Speaker 2: one that's going to be the most interesting people. Nobody
- 14:34Speaker 2: saw it coming. I didn't even see it.
- 14:35Speaker 1: Coming because like for me, the D were like divorce
- 14:39Speaker 1: is just like yeah, like that's not the D word.
- 14:42Speaker 2: I like, exactly, Oh, well, that makes two of us.
- 14:48Speaker 2: I wish there would have been that word, not the
- 14:49Speaker 2: other one. So I wish we were to be talking
- 14:51Speaker 2: about the D that we both like and not the
- 14:53Speaker 2: D that you know.
- 14:54Speaker 1: I always say that we're in love with love, but
- 14:56Speaker 1: I think we're in love with the D.
- 14:58Speaker 2: Well, that's different. That's for it, by the way, that's separate.
- 15:03Speaker 2: But so yeah, back to that, you know, there were
- 15:07Speaker 2: a lot and this is what makes it even more
- 15:09Speaker 2: difficult for me. It's not because you know, I don't
- 15:12Speaker 2: read all the comments. But then if I don't read them,
- 15:14Speaker 2: I have some friends that bring it up to my
- 15:16Speaker 2: attention and they send me, oh did you see this?
- 15:18Speaker 2: Did you see that? And then everybody starts forming an
- 15:21Speaker 2: opinion of you and your relationship. It's very toxic and
- 15:24Speaker 2: it's horrible. Yeah, and you don't need really very bad
- 15:27Speaker 2: and I will, luckily for me, Like I said, I
- 15:30Speaker 2: try not to read those, and I don't read all
- 15:33Speaker 2: of them. I'm surprised you didn't shut your comments off.
- 15:35Speaker 2: But actually four actually, you know what.
- 15:37Speaker 1: It was a good thing because ninety seven percent of
- 15:41Speaker 1: it I couldn't read it all. Obviously, it was like
- 15:44Speaker 1: right almost like like a lot, like thirteen hundred comments.
- 15:47Speaker 1: It was a lot, but I read a lot of
- 15:49Speaker 1: positive and supportive things, which may be very as it
- 15:52Speaker 1: should be.
- 15:53Speaker 2: Yeah, but people can be cruel moment like that. So
- 15:55Speaker 2: I was so readers and there's bad people, but you
- 15:58Speaker 2: had a lot of love, no, I know that. That's
- 16:00Speaker 2: why I'm thanking everyone. Yeah, and as I should, because
- 16:03Speaker 2: at a time like this, it's already so difficult that
- 16:06Speaker 2: you're going through something like this, so you add you know,
- 16:09Speaker 2: people saying, you know, mean things, and you know, just
- 16:12Speaker 2: giving their opinion that they don't know anything, and it
- 16:15Speaker 2: could get to you. You're already struggling going through your
- 16:18Speaker 2: mental breakdown, right and then in addition to that, you
- 16:21Speaker 2: start reading that and it could really get you down. Absolutely,
- 16:24Speaker 2: you can really get you down. But thank you for
- 16:27Speaker 2: all your love and support, because I think that that's
- 16:29Speaker 2: what it should be about. About being positive about we're
- 16:33Speaker 2: with you, we're praying for you. You know, you got this,
- 16:36Speaker 2: you know, and building, you know, uplifting the person, not
- 16:39Speaker 2: putting them down already it's such a horrible at the
- 16:42Speaker 2: point in their life.
- 16:43Speaker 1: I would like to personally thank everyone to put a
- 16:45Speaker 1: nice message to Alexia, because you know what, when you're down,
- 16:49Speaker 1: you're gonna want that too, And if you put negative
- 16:51Speaker 1: stuff out there, it's just going to come back to you.
- 16:53Speaker 2: So always be kind and supportive.
- 16:55Speaker 1: I know Instagrams or any social media platforms such an
- 17:00Speaker 1: easy place to breed hate.
- 17:02Speaker 2: But when you're.
- 17:03Speaker 1: Hateful, you live in a you live in a suspended
- 17:07Speaker 1: place of hate and anger, and then you never get out,
- 17:10Speaker 1: you never have any happiness of your own.
- 17:11Speaker 2: You have to turn that around and be positive and kind.
- 17:15Speaker 2: I mean, people just don't get it. They just I
- 17:18Speaker 2: even heard that there were some people saying this, that
- 17:20Speaker 2: I was doing this for a storyline. You believe that
- 17:24Speaker 2: you could be so low, like you can be such
- 17:27Speaker 2: like a malicious, horrible, disgusting person that you would say.
- 17:33Speaker 1: That they're they're writing on your coattails for a storyline
- 17:36Speaker 1: and attention, of.
- 17:37Speaker 2: Course, but they would even say something like this. I mean,
- 17:40Speaker 2: who's going to put their marriage on the line or
- 17:43Speaker 2: say something like this for a storyline? I mean, if
- 17:46Speaker 2: you do, like you're like disgusting and pathetic, and you
- 17:49Speaker 2: know like that's by the way, I like my character.
- 17:52Speaker 2: That's not who I've been.
- 17:53Speaker 1: You know what, the audience knows when it's fake and
- 17:57Speaker 1: when it's real.
- 17:58Speaker 2: I wish it was fake. Yeah, I know me too.
- 18:01Speaker 2: You don't know how much I prayed and cried for
- 18:03Speaker 2: this to be fake.
- 18:04Speaker 1: Do you know how sad I get it before I
- 18:07Speaker 1: go to bed every night, because I know how it
- 18:08Speaker 1: feels to go to bed alone.
- 18:11Speaker 3: And with your thoughts even and that heart. No, no,
- 18:15Speaker 3: I goes sleeping with me. No no, no, I don't mean
- 18:17Speaker 3: also been. I don't mean the company of a body.
- 18:20Speaker 3: I mean your thoughts. That's when the pain sits in,
- 18:23Speaker 3: sets in when you're alone with your thoughts before you.
- 18:25Speaker 1: Go to bed at night.
- 18:26Speaker 2: Not for me in the morning, but for me, the
- 18:28Speaker 2: most difficult time of day for me has been when
- 18:32Speaker 2: I've gone home, you know, not to the apartment, and
- 18:35Speaker 2: you know, we would more or less get home at
- 18:37Speaker 2: the same time, him a little earlier, and he would
- 18:40Speaker 2: always tell me, how come you get home later than me?
- 18:41Speaker 2: Because I was like going to be home before him.
- 18:43Speaker 2: He liked, like his wife to be home. But you know,
- 18:45Speaker 2: the beauty bar picks up in the afternoon, so a
- 18:48Speaker 2: lot of times I would go later. My date would
- 18:50Speaker 2: start later than his. Therefore I would finish later than
- 18:53Speaker 2: you're open later. So I would get to the apartment
- 18:56Speaker 2: and he was already there, so he was either reading
- 18:58Speaker 2: his book or he was like in taking a nap
- 19:01Speaker 2: or you know, having coffee. You know, he's expressedive before
- 19:03Speaker 2: going to the gym, but I was look forward to that, like,
- 19:06Speaker 2: you know, let me hurry home because he's there, and
- 19:08Speaker 2: then we would talk about our day and whatnot, whatever
- 19:11Speaker 2: and no, and then every night we will go out
- 19:13Speaker 2: to dinner. So that time of day for me, when
- 19:16Speaker 2: I get home and I see it's not there. It's
- 19:18Speaker 2: just that's so hard. It's been very, very hard because yea,
- 19:22Speaker 2: I'm going to go to sleep. I'm so tired from
- 19:24Speaker 2: like everything that I'm taught throughout the day. That a
- 19:28Speaker 2: little exhausting. And Coco's been sleeping with me. Coco's so cute.
- 19:31Speaker 1: I love Coco's Alexia's dong.
- 19:33Speaker 2: She's very cute. Yeah, it's like she knows I need
- 19:36Speaker 2: her so like she's been sleeping with me. But my friend,
- 19:41Speaker 2: you know, I'm I'm scared about the future, super scary.
- 19:47Speaker 2: You know, it's scary. Just everything, Like you know, it's hard.
- 19:51Speaker 2: I mean, it's different your fifties than your forties. Like
- 19:54Speaker 2: I married Todd thinking I was going to be married
- 19:56Speaker 2: him for the rest of my life. And and let's
- 19:59Speaker 2: not forget you still had your mother around, you know,
- 20:02Speaker 2: when you go through these things and you don't have
- 20:04Speaker 2: your mom and your dad to talk to. Got about
- 20:06Speaker 2: my mother's cart would give a lot of good advice, right,
- 20:10Speaker 2: and she never took it to herself to herself. She
- 20:14Speaker 2: was married and divorced five But I'm very good, but
- 20:16Speaker 2: my mom always gave really good advice. I've been praying
- 20:19Speaker 2: a lot to my mom. Yea, and and you know,
- 20:22Speaker 2: I know this sh'll guide me. I do that. Her
- 20:26Speaker 2: and Elsa her up there already planning your future.
- 20:30Speaker 1: They're up there to calm down.
- 20:32Speaker 2: Because I know I'm around. I think I'm going to
- 20:35Speaker 2: be more careful about my future because I'm getting older.
- 20:40Speaker 2: And yeah, and I'm not there yet, right right there yet.
- 20:44Speaker 1: So speaking of their power, Peter and Frankie handling everything,
- 20:52Speaker 1: you know.
- 20:54Speaker 2: Peter doesn't talk much, you know, he keeps everything to himself.
- 20:59Speaker 2: And but all I can know is that he's been
- 21:04Speaker 2: by my side every single day. I've seen him more
- 21:07Speaker 2: like these last three weeks that I've ever seen him,
- 21:09Speaker 2: because he knows when I need him, he knows he
- 21:12Speaker 2: has to be there, and he is. Frank I can't
- 21:14Speaker 2: even tell you. He's an angel full of positivity. You know, Mom,
- 21:19Speaker 2: You're strong, Mom, you got this. Yeah, Mom, you know
- 21:23Speaker 2: he's just there. Mom. I love you, Mom. That tastes beautiful.
- 21:27Speaker 2: Life is good here. He told me all these things
- 21:30Speaker 2: shown limits in language. Yeah, But I just look at
- 21:34Speaker 2: him and like, this is why I keep on doing this,
- 21:36Speaker 2: Like how could Like I can't cry in front of him.
- 21:38Speaker 2: I'm always with him so you know, it's it's been
- 21:42Speaker 2: really really hard. I mean all of us, Evenugh I'm Frankie.
- 21:44Speaker 2: You know, changes aren't good for him. You know, He's
- 21:47Speaker 2: like the other day, we're having coffee and he's like, mom,
- 21:50Speaker 2: Tod's gone. So it was like I have to run
- 21:53Speaker 2: to my room to start crying.
- 21:55Speaker 1: Right, And what I mean, I understand that you want
- 21:58Speaker 1: to be strong for him, but it's okay you to cry.
- 22:00Speaker 1: I mean, should he should know that it's okay.
- 22:03Speaker 2: No, But you don't know.
- 22:04Speaker 4: No mom likes for their kids, you know, to see
- 22:06Speaker 4: them crying, you know, so you know, of course I
- 22:10Speaker 4: tried to do it like when he's not there, but
- 22:12Speaker 4: it broke my heart when he looked.
- 22:15Speaker 2: And he's like, mom, Tod's gone. So it's like, it's hard.
- 22:18Speaker 2: It's been so hard, Mariso. I would never imagine this.
- 22:22Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 22:23Speaker 2: I know me either. I'm in utter and complete shock
- 22:28Speaker 2: and dismay. Always.
- 22:30Speaker 1: Well, because you guys were used to, like, you know,
- 22:32Speaker 1: you would argue, you'd get over things, and you'd move on,
- 22:35Speaker 1: and you know, you get used to that kind of
- 22:37Speaker 1: thing and it becomes a routine.
- 22:39Speaker 2: And because we love each other so much and we're
- 22:41Speaker 2: still saying, like I love you to each other, and
- 22:43Speaker 2: you know, there's it's like, I don't know, it's just
- 22:46Speaker 2: so crazy that like I.
- 22:47Speaker 1: Don't know, is there a cliffhanger here? Is there maybe
- 22:50Speaker 1: there's a reconciliation. We never know, you know, Crazier things
- 22:55Speaker 1: have happened. Look at Liz Listen, Lisa Taylor and Richard
- 22:59Speaker 1: Burry the same again.
- 23:00Speaker 2: I will Yeah, you would marry him again. Yeah, I
- 23:05Speaker 2: would marry Todd again. Yeah you would. All right, Well,
- 23:09Speaker 2: I mean I only married. I was only married for
- 23:11Speaker 2: two years, so yeah, I would like to like have
- 23:13Speaker 2: a few more years with him. And by the way,
- 23:24Speaker 2: I had as many texts of people reaching out to
- 23:26Speaker 2: me and calling me as the day that Hermann passed away.
- 23:29Speaker 2: Even people that I hadn't spoken to in years and
- 23:33Speaker 2: I hadn't stayed in touch with, you know, called me,
- 23:36Speaker 2: texted me. And I'm still three weeks later receiving you know,
- 23:40Speaker 2: text and messages from people. You know, people have been
- 23:44Speaker 2: with me for so many years and I've gone through
- 23:46Speaker 2: my with me through life that and my journey that
- 23:51Speaker 2: you know, they're rooting for me because they're like, I
- 23:53Speaker 2: guess you know this poor woman. Everybody's like, but how
- 23:56Speaker 2: did it happen? Like he was so in love with you,
- 23:59Speaker 2: like you know, you guys are so in love that
- 24:01Speaker 2: that was the majority of the text. But what happened?
- 24:05Speaker 2: I mean, they're so in love, they were so good together,
- 24:07Speaker 2: they're so beautiful together. And that's how I felt the same.
- 24:10Speaker 2: I felt like, how is this happening? Why did this happen?
- 24:14Speaker 2: Like we love each other so much? So yeah, thank
- 24:18Speaker 2: you for you know, for like I said, you know
- 24:20Speaker 2: to all my friends and my family and my family
- 24:24Speaker 2: are really my friends because I have very little family.
- 24:27Speaker 2: So the people that I'm referring to, you know exactly
- 24:30Speaker 2: who you are. And you know, once again here they are,
- 24:34Speaker 2: you know, voting for me and being there for me.
- 24:37Speaker 2: Do you still believe in love and marriage? And you
- 24:42Speaker 2: know marriage, I don't know anymore. Truthfully, that's it. I've
- 24:46Speaker 2: been lucky in love, but I haven't been lucky staying married.
- 24:51Speaker 2: Well to me, well you know so, but no, I'm
- 24:54Speaker 2: like done. I really thought I was that's it that
- 24:57Speaker 2: Todd was, you know, going to be my Okay, so

- 25:02Speaker 2: on load, Okay.
- 25:03Speaker 1: So Okay, so let's say you would have a long
- 25:06Speaker 1: term relationship again, but not sign the paper about relationships.
- 25:09Speaker 2: But I believe in love, so you're gonna Yeah, I
- 25:12Speaker 2: believe in love because I'm a hopeless romantic me too,
- 25:15Speaker 2: and I need to be emotionally connected. You know, to
- 25:19Speaker 2: I already people, I already see your future.
- 25:21Speaker 1: And this is this conversation is funny to me because
- 25:24Speaker 1: I know you're hurting and I felt the same way
- 25:26Speaker 1: in my last breakup. And here I am happy and
- 25:30Speaker 1: married and I don't want to be with anybody else.
- 25:33Speaker 1: But I'm really excited for you to do love so
- 25:36Speaker 1: and I can live vicarously through you.
- 25:38Speaker 2: And I'm gonna take charge of your love life. Now
- 25:41Speaker 2: you're gonna leave me, My mom and your mother and Herman.
- 25:44Speaker 2: We're all in charge. Now, just leave it in our hands. Prayer, prayer,
- 25:49Speaker 2: and that my marriage didn't work out right well, Herman
- 25:55Speaker 2: wants you to be have the best and.
- 25:57Speaker 1: Be happy, and so do I, and so does I
- 26:00Speaker 1: do behind and so does Nancay.
- 26:02Speaker 2: Oh, you know your parents always on people the lovels
- 26:04Speaker 2: always want that. Yeah, they always want that. But what
- 26:07Speaker 2: I can't do is until I haven't healed properly, and
- 26:11Speaker 2: I you know I can't move on.
- 26:13Speaker 1: Well, of course you need time to heal, honey. I
- 26:16Speaker 1: pulled a blanket over my head for two years. You
- 26:19Speaker 1: know that went two years is too much? Bro Well,
- 26:21Speaker 1: then COVID hit, so I got that extra year. I
- 26:23Speaker 1: did a year and then you know what, it's never.
- 26:25Speaker 2: Too much or too long. It's honest, whatever whatever may need,
- 26:29Speaker 2: it's whatever you need. I mean, I see people move
- 26:31Speaker 2: on after three months. I see people six months.
- 26:34Speaker 1: But they're not. It's not a healthy You're not healthy mentally.
- 26:37Speaker 1: For that, I emerged a butterfly, a self healed human being.
- 26:43Speaker 2: On my own.
- 26:43Speaker 1: I always say, like your wounds, I left my own wounds.
- 26:46Speaker 1: I never went to a therapist. I am a mom
- 26:48Speaker 1: or dad to talk to because they passed away. And
- 26:51Speaker 1: I did it all by myself. And we've talked about
- 26:54Speaker 1: this before, and you know it made me better and stronger.
- 26:58Speaker 1: I needed that because I was very weak emotionally.
- 27:02Speaker 2: You know, maybe that's why I kept just jumping into
- 27:04Speaker 2: things that I wasn't ready for. So me isolating myself
- 27:08Speaker 2: and coming out stronger, maybe a better person, a better partner,
- 27:12Speaker 2: and I attracted something better for myself.
- 27:16Speaker 1: You know, so you know, you take all the time
- 27:18Speaker 1: in the world that you need.
- 27:19Speaker 2: You know I'm talking about strong. You know. Everybody like
- 27:23Speaker 2: life doesn't prepare you for like emotional strength, you know
- 27:26Speaker 2: what I mean. It's like we're not born with that
- 27:28Speaker 2: emotional strength. You know, I have it because of all
- 27:31Speaker 2: my life lesson. Yeah, it's like everybody's like, you got this,
- 27:35Speaker 2: I know, but you can't.
- 27:36Speaker 1: That pisces me off.
- 27:37Speaker 2: Can I tell you? I know you are? That's what
- 27:42Speaker 2: That's what I keep saying.
- 27:43Speaker 1: Stop falling into this whole persona that everyone has thrown
- 27:48Speaker 1: on you. Alexi here so strong, You're so strong. Take
- 27:51Speaker 1: the time, cry, break down, be weak, do it in private,
- 27:57Speaker 1: do whatever you have to do.
- 27:58Speaker 2: But don't force yourself. That's strongest telling you, because you
- 28:02Speaker 2: know I speak from the heart. It's not the same,
- 28:05Speaker 2: you know, when you're fifty seven years old. My birthday's
- 28:08Speaker 2: next Friday, May through and I'm turning fifty seven. Yeah,
- 28:11Speaker 2: and it's like you feel differently inside. I don't care
- 28:13Speaker 2: how good you look at the outside and how healthy
- 28:16Speaker 2: you are, because thank goodness, I am, but inside it
- 28:20Speaker 2: feels different, like you feel like I don't have so
- 28:23Speaker 2: much time left anymore. It's true, you know, and it's
- 28:25Speaker 2: like starting over and it's not even about the man.
- 28:27Speaker 2: It's starting over and so many aspects of that lie.
- 28:30Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, so it's yeah, it's very it's very
- 28:34Speaker 1: scary times, very scary times.
- 28:37Speaker 2: But you know what, I have no choice, you have
- 28:41Speaker 2: no every time I've had to be strong in my life,
- 28:44Speaker 2: it's because I've had no choice. Yeah, right, no other choice.
- 28:49Speaker 2: And you know what, You're right, I've come back stronger
- 28:53Speaker 2: and better, you know, how much more? Like how much more?
- 28:56Speaker 2: I know how much all I want to do. This
- 28:58Speaker 2: is the last time and healthy and this is it time.
- 29:01Speaker 2: You know. I don't care about what other people think.
- 29:05Speaker 2: I care about you know, the material things and where
- 29:09Speaker 2: I live. I mean, I just don't want to have
- 29:10Speaker 2: to be moving every year or two, right, right, But
- 29:12Speaker 2: it's not so riet. I mean that's a different story
- 29:15Speaker 2: that having to move, so that's different. But I don't
- 29:19Speaker 2: care about any of that stuff. I would get all
- 29:22Speaker 2: of that up, everything, every single Paarachhue. I have every
- 29:26Speaker 2: single perse, every single piece of jewelry for my kids
- 29:30Speaker 2: and myself and taught just to be healthy and happy.
- 29:34Speaker 2: That's it. That's all I'm want. I don't care about
- 29:35Speaker 2: anything else. But you know, I guess I haven't been
- 29:41Speaker 2: fortunate in that way. You've been fortunate.
- 29:43Speaker 1: In many ways, and your future is going to be
- 29:47Speaker 1: bright because you're a very hard worker. People don't know Alexai.
- 29:51Speaker 1: She's a super hard worker, and she's always made her
- 29:55Speaker 1: own money, been very independent, had her own businesses. I
- 29:58Speaker 1: know they don't really talk about that on the show much,
- 30:01Speaker 1: but you and I used to work together a lot.
- 30:03Speaker 1: She's always been an entrepreneur and an independent person, and
- 30:07Speaker 1: so you can always take care of yourself. You don't
- 30:09Speaker 1: need a man.
- 30:10Speaker 2: So that's not and I never and so you know,
- 30:13Speaker 2: which is very funny. So I have never been with
- 30:16Speaker 2: a man because of his financial position and how much
- 30:19Speaker 2: money he's had. Never and I've had prenuptials with both
- 30:23Speaker 2: of my husbands. That's true with Todd and with Herman.
- 30:27Speaker 2: So if you saw it, you would definitely see that
- 30:29Speaker 2: I'm not a gold digger. And now I haven't been
- 30:31Speaker 2: with any of them for their money. And many of the.
- 30:33Speaker 1: Things you have you buy, you buy yourself from me.
- 30:35Speaker 2: I remember the relationship already with money because Herman had
- 30:38Speaker 2: left me a life insurance when he passed away. And
- 30:41Speaker 2: my kids are trust so you know it had nothing
- 30:43Speaker 2: to do with that. But people are always you know,
- 30:46Speaker 2: quick to say, oh yeah, because you know this, that
- 30:48Speaker 2: and the other. And I even even think about Lisa
- 30:51Speaker 2: so much because she gets such as well yeah, and
- 30:54Speaker 2: I'm like, people don't understand that when you love the
- 30:58Speaker 2: person like and it's a it's an emotional stability. Even
- 31:02Speaker 2: if you know you fight or whatever it may be,
- 31:04Speaker 2: the dynamics of your relationship is you're like attached to
- 31:07Speaker 2: them psychologically, it's a lot. It's like you're co dependent,
- 31:11Speaker 2: and it's this emotional stability. So I'm more scared of
- 31:14Speaker 2: that lack of like emotional stability than the financialstability, because
- 31:20Speaker 2: I know I can make money, and I know that
- 31:21Speaker 2: I work, and I know that I have a good
- 31:23Speaker 2: income and I know what I have, so I'm good
- 31:25Speaker 2: with that. But it's like that emotional psychological stability.
- 31:29Speaker 1: Course, it doesn't matter if you have money, you don't
- 31:33Speaker 1: have money, or you live in a thatch hut with
- 31:35Speaker 1: a mud floor underneath you emotional connection with another human
- 31:40Speaker 1: being and then they're no longer there that even if
- 31:43Speaker 1: it's death.
- 31:44Speaker 2: It was like er my rug, like all of a sudden,
- 31:46Speaker 2: what how you say that pull a rug out from
- 31:49Speaker 2: under you.
- 31:49Speaker 1: But even like when somebody dies that you you're close to,
- 31:53Speaker 1: you lost that emotional attachment, that person is no longer there,
- 31:56Speaker 1: you have a right say that.
- 31:59Speaker 2: Is a lot like death because it's a loss and
- 32:02Speaker 2: you need to grieve it. And I think it's even
- 32:05Speaker 2: worse because you know the death. You know they're not
- 32:08Speaker 2: there physically anymore. So it's easier because you're not seeing
- 32:12Speaker 2: the person, you're not talking to them. You don't have
- 32:15Speaker 2: to gut it. Does there are different things. I unfortunately
- 32:19Speaker 2: have gone through both of them. Absolutely, so I can
- 32:21Speaker 2: speak because I've been in both and it's a different
- 32:24Speaker 2: kind of loss, but their losses and you need to
- 32:28Speaker 2: heal from them absolutely. And you know, like I said,
- 32:31Speaker 2: it's been three weeks on my healing journey.
- 32:35Speaker 1: Well you look gorgeous, and you know you lost eight pounds.
- 32:39Speaker 2: It's you're killing it. But anyways, but I am on
- 32:43Speaker 2: my healing journey, and you know, I I'm very fortunate,
- 32:48Speaker 2: like I was saying, because I have so many friends
- 32:51Speaker 2: that are like my family, and and that's the only
- 32:57Speaker 2: way where I can do this. This is the I mean, honestly,
- 33:00Speaker 2: the support system that I have. I'm very, very lucky.
- 33:03Speaker 2: And I tell all my friends every day thank you.
- 33:06Speaker 2: You know, they all call me. They've offered everything from homes,
- 33:10Speaker 2: to cars, to trips, to to everything everything.
- 33:16Speaker 5: So see that's home, cars and trips. We needs a
- 33:21Speaker 5: man exactly. So they've offered men too, but are the
- 33:26Speaker 5: greatest thing in the world. We need a friend with.
- 33:29Speaker 2: It wasn't anything, not only no, but you know what's
- 33:32Speaker 2: more important that the love that they have for me
- 33:35Speaker 2: and my boys. You know, they've been in my life
- 33:38Speaker 2: in my happiest moments and my slightest moments, and they've
- 33:42Speaker 2: been there for years.
- 33:44Speaker 1: Anyone who's been here long enough seen.
- 33:46Speaker 2: It all exactly.
- 33:48Speaker 1: I'm a lifer, right, I've seen it all to twenty
- 33:52Speaker 1: four years.
- 33:53Speaker 2: Y'all do something. A lot of people don't have this, right,
- 33:56Speaker 2: you don't have aren't fortunate that way. And I think
- 33:59Speaker 2: that that's why I can be with you here today,
- 34:01Speaker 2: because you've helped me tremendously for three weeks. Every single
- 34:04Speaker 2: day I would have to come here tomorrow for that event.
- 34:08Speaker 2: By myself, I wouldn't have come. Oh no, you know,
- 34:11Speaker 2: I just couldn't have done it now. But you know,
- 34:13Speaker 2: because of you, Because like my friends, you know who
- 34:16Speaker 2: you are. There's so many of you, but you know,
- 34:20Speaker 2: and there's a few here in the room as well.
- 34:23Speaker 2: And I think it's just such an important, you know,
- 34:29Speaker 2: thing to have absolutely in your life because and you know,
- 34:33Speaker 2: I never got you know, even though I was married,
- 34:35Speaker 2: I always kept my friends. And that's the best advice
- 34:38Speaker 2: that I can give. Like any of them, you kept
- 34:40Speaker 2: them separate. No, I mean I tried to mix some,
- 34:44Speaker 2: I kept them separate. I kept them each on every way,
- 34:47Speaker 2: you know, because to me, my friends, you know, I
- 34:50Speaker 2: choose my friends. You can't choose your family, but you
- 34:52Speaker 2: choose your friends. So for me, friendship has always been
- 34:55Speaker 2: so important. My mom had so many friends because my
- 34:58Speaker 2: mom was an only child, so she always which is
- 35:01Speaker 2: a half brother, and but she didn't grow up with him,
- 35:05Speaker 2: so she was always her friends just like you, yeah,
- 35:07Speaker 2: kind of like you. For her, friends were always so important.
- 35:10Speaker 2: So she always taught me that you needed to have friends.
- 35:14Speaker 2: And my friends have been my friends for like the
- 35:16Speaker 2: last twenty years.
- 35:17Speaker 1: I actually, in my last breakup, I had to cut
- 35:21Speaker 1: a lot of people out of my life because sometimes
- 35:23Speaker 1: maybe I'll have to do that too. Sometimes, you know,
- 35:27Speaker 1: when you come mingle friends in a relationship, they choose
- 35:31Speaker 1: the exs or they choose you. They all have to
- 35:34Speaker 1: make you know, you have to make a choice, and
- 35:35Speaker 1: you end up losing friends. But I feel like you
- 35:38Speaker 1: kept it kind of separate and you'll be okay. I
- 35:41Speaker 1: had a mass exodus that I had to make for myself.
- 35:45Speaker 2: Well used to.
- 35:45Speaker 1: Cutting people out of my life.
- 35:47Speaker 2: Well I think so too, because those weren't really your friends.
- 35:49Speaker 2: So my friends have proven to me throughout the years.
- 35:52Speaker 2: Remember I went through a divorce with herman, and it
- 35:54Speaker 2: was kind of like the same set of friends. Yeah,
- 35:57Speaker 2: I mean yes and no, but they both loved us
- 36:02Speaker 2: and they both liked us, so they were like, you
- 36:03Speaker 2: know what. But besides that, it was like a different
- 36:05Speaker 2: kind of Yeah.
- 36:06Speaker 1: He would have never said to anyone, you know, I
- 36:10Speaker 1: wasn't that person.
- 36:11Speaker 2: I think you should be put in that position. And
- 36:13Speaker 2: I'm really not worried about that anyways, because like I said,
- 36:16Speaker 2: my friends are my friends, you know for so many years.
- 36:19Speaker 1: Well, I'm not going to hang out with talk, so
- 36:21Speaker 1: don't worry about that.
- 36:22Speaker 2: Are you going to follow him? Follow LARSA? Said up,
- 36:25Speaker 2: who's them following him?
- 36:27Speaker 6: Oh?
- 36:27Speaker 2: Should your friends follow your ex? Well?
- 36:31Speaker 1: I mean that's next, that's next podcast, next podcast. So
- 36:42Speaker 1: let's talk about some more fun stuff because.
- 36:44Speaker 2: We got out with forward. Because okay, so I don't
- 36:47Speaker 2: want to cry anymore. I'm in New York City, the
- 36:50Speaker 2: day is beautiful here, and you have a bit of
- 36:54Speaker 2: a fascination with nudity and pornography. So let's just hump

- 37:09Speaker 2: a nude beach? Bro? Actually have with Todd? What did
- 37:12Speaker 2: you guys get naked?
- 37:14Speaker 1: No?
- 37:15Speaker 2: Did you know that? The naked thing? It was so
- 37:17Speaker 2: fun because you know, we live in Sunnyisles, so we
- 37:19Speaker 2: would walk in Hollandale Beach, the number one nude beach. No, yes,
- 37:24Speaker 2: it's in Hollandale, so you know we were. This was
- 37:27Speaker 2: like in the beginning, Oh sorry, Halover, Hollover, same thing
- 37:31Speaker 2: starts with an h oh, okay, Hollover.
- 37:34Speaker 1: Oh I just shook down the whole Hollandale neighborhood. That
- 37:36Speaker 1: zip code.
- 37:37Speaker 2: I'm sorry, Hollandale it's Hallover. Okay, their apartment's so weird.
- 37:42Speaker 2: Now down the real estate Hallovers in Sunny Aisles, which
- 37:46Speaker 2: is like prime real estate, and they allow that there,
- 37:48Speaker 2: which is fine because because it was there before the
- 37:52Speaker 2: prime real estate arrive. Right, you talk at Marco Polo
- 37:54Speaker 2: Hotel and Marco you know, all those other stuff.
- 38:01Speaker 1: But we have a bartender here. Mama needs a refail
- 38:05Speaker 1: and so yeah.
- 38:07Speaker 2: So actually the first time, well, I used to go
- 38:09Speaker 2: to Europe, which obviously is on nud beach. They have
- 38:12Speaker 2: nude beaches. Everyone really topless, you know, back in the
- 38:16Speaker 2: day when I was either way.
- 38:18Speaker 1: I've seeing some sad ass titties on the beaches of Europe.
- 38:21Speaker 2: Of course, why would you do it, because they don't
- 38:24Speaker 2: do implants, I know, like the US, you know, like Miami.
- 38:27Speaker 2: Of course you'll come here to the nude beach and
- 38:29Speaker 2: everybody's tits are perfect, I know, but I saw some drippy,
- 38:32Speaker 2: poopy boobs.
- 38:33Speaker 7: You know.
- 38:33Speaker 2: They do it for what else?
- 38:35Speaker 7: Health?
- 38:36Speaker 2: Yes, D three Vitamin D. Vitamin D is good for
- 38:40Speaker 2: the rest and it lifts the back up. No, that
- 38:43Speaker 2: that's guy that would need a lot more than vitamin D. Okay, beatal, Yeah,
- 38:47Speaker 2: they do it because it's more like health and you know,
- 38:50Speaker 2: it's just a culture. It's a cultural thing.
- 38:52Speaker 1: Yeah, pertaining topless when I moved. Let me ask you something,
- 38:57Speaker 1: and I'm sure you might agree with me. I'm just guessing.
- 39:00Speaker 1: Why is it always the people that shouldn't be naked
- 39:03Speaker 1: or naked?
- 39:04Speaker 2: Why? You know, because they're free not complain hold, they
- 39:06Speaker 2: don't have any complexes. The people that have like the
- 39:08Speaker 2: perfect bodies, they're like, oh wait, I have two apps,
- 39:11Speaker 2: not four, So I'm gonna leave on my shirt because
- 39:14Speaker 2: I'm fat. So the guy that's already or the woman
- 39:17Speaker 2: that really doesn't care about her physique and about what
- 39:20Speaker 2: her body looks like, she's the first one to take
- 39:22Speaker 2: off for clothes.
- 39:24Speaker 6: Oh yeah. And then the ones I have the perfect body,
- 39:26Speaker 6: they're like, oh my god, Vina, like I have like
- 39:28Speaker 6: a little like dimple here, like I have a little
- 39:31Speaker 6: bit of cellul like and then mind you, the other
- 39:33Speaker 6: one is like yeah.
- 39:35Speaker 1: And then the fat is of the tiniest pepy and
- 39:37Speaker 1: then they go in the cold water and it's becomes inverted,
- 39:40Speaker 1: like why would you you.
- 39:41Speaker 2: Look that much to see all these deals details?
- 39:43Speaker 1: Like why would you take your pants if you look
- 39:45Speaker 1: like you have a clitterist and not a penis, Like,
- 39:47Speaker 1: why would you take your pants off?
- 39:49Speaker 2: Exactly complain. I think that that's for.
- 39:54Speaker 1: If I had a negative pepy.
- 39:57Speaker 2: But have you been? It looks like you've been and
- 40:02Speaker 2: you and you stuck. It looks like it like you.
- 40:05Speaker 1: I've been to Europe many times, but I mean here

- 40:10Speaker 1: with Kelly, my child childhood friend that you know. She
- 40:15Speaker 1: said to me one day because she was always crazy.
- 40:17Speaker 1: She took she dived into the seaquarium late at night
- 40:21Speaker 1: and swam with the killer whales without fear. She would
- 40:24Speaker 1: jump up, could climb all the way to the top
- 40:26Speaker 1: of the water tower and tell everyone to come. She
- 40:29Speaker 1: would do the craziest ship. One day she says to me,

- 41:07Speaker 1: Apps, and tell people they're in trouble, you pat them
- 41:09Speaker 1: down and if the pad down felt good, you got

- 41:12Speaker 2: Anyway, so we went to the new beach. She's like,
- 41:15Speaker 2: let's go, and I said, okay.
- 41:17Speaker 1: I was always like a deer in headlights for there
- 41:20Speaker 1: because I didn't know what she was going to camp with.

- 41:24Speaker 1: was like, so we don't have to go back after
- 41:27Speaker 1: it's finished the story, because I don't want time to think.
- 41:29Speaker 2: Oh, like we went to the nude beach like nude,
- 41:31Speaker 2: Like I have to tell you my story. Okay, yeah,
- 41:33Speaker 2: I don't want to get sued for that. This is
- 41:35Speaker 2: quite humorous to me.
- 41:37Speaker 1: So do you remember the old masks that people would
- 41:40Speaker 1: like go swimming and snorkel with And the.
- 41:43Speaker 8: Mask was big mouse, It was big and oval, and
- 41:46Speaker 8: it was a big like glass and it was all
- 41:49Speaker 8: one of the Okay, so we got there and there's
- 41:53Speaker 8: a guy coming out of the water and he had
- 41:55Speaker 8: the mask strapped around his waist and all his junk
- 41:58Speaker 8: was pressed up into the.
- 42:00Speaker 2: Glass of the mask. His testicles is peabeach. I don't
- 42:05Speaker 2: know you wanted to look whoa? Because I was fascinated.
- 42:08Speaker 2: I'm like, how'd you get that all in?
- 42:10Speaker 1: There?
- 42:10Speaker 2: Is that your where your fascination of penises comes from? Well,
- 42:13Speaker 2: what's your childhood trauma? Fascination of penises come from? Where?
- 42:18Speaker 2: You're definitely not from a nude beach. Yeah, I was, yeah,
- 42:21Speaker 2: and evident. It's so hard to hear it hadus yeah.

- 42:34Speaker 2: at a new beach. I couldn't keep my eyes off
- 42:37Speaker 2: any of it. It was like, whoa. So I feel
- 42:41Speaker 2: that men and women look more at men because I've
- 42:48Speaker 2: seen it. I've seen like guys and there, and it
- 42:50Speaker 2: doesn't even have to do anything with sexuality. It's just
- 42:53Speaker 2: like people are more curious, and I guess because it's
- 42:55Speaker 2: more like stranger, right, it's more unique to see like
- 42:58Speaker 2: a penis versus like a boob.
- 43:01Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I mean that would fascinate me more.
- 43:04Speaker 2: No, I feel like I've seen like straight guys looking
- 43:07Speaker 2: at guys, you know what I mean. I think it's
- 43:09Speaker 2: just like a penis thing, Like everybody wants to look
- 43:10Speaker 2: at the penis.
- 43:11Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I love a It's very fascinating tool. Right,
- 43:15Speaker 1: really is one of the most sot too funny. God
- 43:18Speaker 1: Creaty and I were, you.
- 43:20Speaker 2: Know, we lived in there in sunny House whatever, and
- 43:22Speaker 2: he knew about how over beach, so he's like, you know,
- 43:24Speaker 2: we used to walk on the beach. So he's like, oh,
- 43:26Speaker 2: let's just walk like a little bit this way. So
- 43:28Speaker 2: we keep on walking. But he knew exactly the day,
- 43:32Speaker 2: and I had forgotten that I hadn't like been in
- 43:34Speaker 2: Sonny House for such a long time that I had
- 43:35Speaker 2: forgotten that there was a new beach there. And we
- 43:38Speaker 2: just start walking. He doesn't tell me anything, and I
- 43:40Speaker 2: like start looking at people and I'm like, oh my god, babe,
- 43:43Speaker 2: look at that guy.
- 43:44Speaker 1: He's naked.
- 43:45Speaker 2: And he's like I'm like oh my god, look at
- 43:47Speaker 2: that girl. But by the way, there were so many
- 43:48Speaker 2: more men than women. So that's why I'm saying, I
- 43:51Speaker 2: don't know, it's like that men like to have it
- 43:52Speaker 2: like you know, hang lately.
- 43:53Speaker 9: It's like a like whatever, a cruising spot. It's a
- 43:56Speaker 9: cruising spot, right, I mean it could be that. I
- 43:59Speaker 9: mean there were some women, but again I was just
- 44:01Speaker 9: looking at the guys, and he was like, oh, like,
- 44:03Speaker 9: don't keep on looking, because I.
- 44:05Speaker 2: Wanted to look at every single guys.
- 44:06Speaker 1: I find it quite interesting that then I would look
- 44:09Speaker 1: in the front.
- 44:10Speaker 2: Calet me finish my thought. The plus, he always had
- 44:15Speaker 2: an excellent tan okay, stopping. Todd never went there, and
- 44:22Speaker 2: actually all there was like noha guys, So I would
- 44:26Speaker 2: never go there. But no, but it was fun. So
- 44:28Speaker 2: him and I went as good to be the big
- 44:30Speaker 2: fish in a little pond. Huh, leave Todd alone, talk
- 44:36Speaker 2: about Steve.
- 44:39Speaker 1: Took me to a new beach.
- 44:40Speaker 2: He didn't take me. We were walking and we lived
- 44:43Speaker 2: next door under we lived. We lived next door, and
- 44:47Speaker 2: it was just cool. We're walking on the beach and
- 44:49Speaker 2: he knew exactly that we were approaching all over and
- 44:52Speaker 2: we're walking like towards the bridge, and all of a
- 44:54Speaker 2: sudden he could see my face. You know, I'm trying
- 44:56Speaker 2: not to look, but I'm looking at it light up
- 44:59Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, I know, because I didn't
- 45:01Speaker 2: even know. I had forgotten about how over. So I
- 45:03Speaker 2: was like, oh my god, that guy's naked. And then
- 45:04Speaker 2: I looked again. The guy's nagging, and we're like, what's
- 45:06Speaker 2: going on? Everybody's naked here. So we were like I
- 45:08Speaker 2: was in my beginning, he was in his in his
- 45:11Speaker 2: bathing suit, would.
- 45:12Speaker 1: You but we thought we want to lay out naked,
- 45:14Speaker 1: even if everyone's laying out.
- 45:16Speaker 2: I would do it like alone with talk now with
- 45:18Speaker 2: other people, like I would do it like with him
- 45:20Speaker 2: like in Europe, you know, like on a boat or
- 45:22Speaker 2: you know something like that. Okay, on a beach with
- 45:25Speaker 2: other people. No, not really. And would you take it
- 45:30Speaker 2: all off or just your top? My top for sure? Yeah, yeah,
- 45:33Speaker 2: I could take off my top, like you don't want
- 45:35Speaker 2: to burn the goods down, you know down there. I
- 45:38Speaker 2: think it's like a little weird, you know, maybe like
- 45:40Speaker 2: a little little tiny like g I mean, you go
- 45:42Speaker 2: to the beach here anyways, and all the beaches in

- 45:50Speaker 2: of like every beach is a nude beach nowadays. But

- 45:56Speaker 2: walk by it and see like so many people naked
- 46:00Speaker 2: at the same time, and they all have a great tan.
- 46:02Speaker 2: That's why I said, you know, you know, I'm not
