• 11:54
  Speaker 1: doing comedy for almost fifteen years, stand up comedy for
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: almost fifteen years. And I started in the Bay Area
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: from California, born and raised and um, currently doing well.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: I'm not currently doing comedy in l A because that's
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: not happening. But I was doing comedy l A. I
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: was running a really great weekly women's only show, Women
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: Crush Wednesdays. That was really fun. Um that's you know,
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: we're waiting for that to hopefully start up again. And
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: uh yeah, maybe you see me on two Dope Queen
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: season two, episodes three. I want to say, yeah, that's
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: that's my intro. Yes, I attended. I went to Woman
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: Crush Wednesday the night that Nicole Buyer was performing. It
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: was so fun. Yeah, she's always fun, she's always she's
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: she she has an open door, uh invitation there, So
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: it's always nice to have her. She's fucking wild. She
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: has another another amazing podcaster. I love. Why wouldn't you
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: date me? So, Marcella, you tweeted a few weeks ago,
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: a few days ago, whatever time is at that point,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: it's not real. It's not real. Maybe I just tweeted it.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: Maybe I just tweeted it. Yeah, about how comedic timing
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: doesn't really work on Zoom and I know you've been
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: doing some Zoom shows, so can we talk about that
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: comedy and COVID? How's it working? How's it not working?
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: I have not been doing Zoom shows. I've been doing
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: like Zoom events, but not Zoom shows because I cannot,
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: I will not. I refuse to do stand up on
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: a Zoom show because there's a delay, and comedy you
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: need the instant reaction, and uh, it just doesn't make
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: sense to me. Like I was telling somebody recently, how
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: like when we start doing common and even now, when
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: you experiment when new material you a delayed reaction is negative.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: It means that the joke is either not funny, or
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: it's not easy to understand, or maybe you just need
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: to change to word, um, but a day delayed reaction.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: We've and you know, I've been doing comedy so long,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: A delayed reaction fox with my head. You know, I'm
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: sure like some of the people who've only been in
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: comedy for a few years are probably fine with it
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: because they're just they're not there. It's easier to adapt
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: when you've only been doing it for a few years.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: But I've been doing it too long. But I'm like,
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: I do zoom stand up. I'm just gonna get super upset.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna get mad. Like I don't know if you've
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: ever if you've only been to the Nicole Buyer Women crush,
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: I have a tendency to get upset on stage and
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: take it out on the audience and it doesn't go
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: my way, which is sometimes funny and sometimes it's fucking terrible.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: So I I just can't imagine. I just I can't
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: imagine enjoying the fucking delayed response, you know, right, Yeah, No,
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: I can totally see that. I mean, even just trying
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: to record a freaking podcast episode a nightmare. Yeah, especially
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: like you know, when you're dependent on or not dependent,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: but you work on people's energies, right when you're integrating people.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: Uh and I are, you know, doing our little thing
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: or back and forth and the delay does not it
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: doesn't work. If it doesn't help, it's not cute. Well
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: because yeah, because then you end up stepping on each
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: other and interrupting when you think someone was pausing for
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: for an opening, but you don't know if they're just
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: completing their thought. And it's just it's sucked up. It's
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: it's not fun, it's not smooth. It takes away some
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: of the fun. But what are you gonna do? What
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: are you gonna do? So zoom events, But you've also
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: done some parking lot shows, Yeah, I did. I was
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: that girl. I was open with barsa okay comedian who
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: has both in English and Spanish special right now on Netflix.
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: Check that out, y'all. And if you haven't already, and um,
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: he invited me. Actually I did stand up at a
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: comedy club the week before and saw like City Utah.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: Because they have like a low number of cases. They've
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: been running the show since or I should say running
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: the club since May. And they are, you know, following
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: all the COVID guidelines and so um. After talking to
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: another communyo who had been headlining there. I agreed to
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: open for Phelipe, and that was a little nerve wracking
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: because it was like, we're inside and I'm not usually
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: being inside with a bunch of people. And it was
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: a three hundred seater but they only had a hundred
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: and fifty people in the room and it was a
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: little uncomfortable. Um, And but it was fine, you know.
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: It was also like, fucking what a trip to just
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: be able to do stand up, tell jokes and get
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: a reaction. I was, so it was and I did great,
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: by the way, So I just wanted everybody hearing to
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: know you can take a long gass break. I'm still
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: do very good if you were good at what you do. Um.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: But it was that was that was sucking a mind funk.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: But it was fun and it was a really good
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: way to transition into doing the driving shows because the
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: driving shows fucking sucked. They fucking suck. They are not
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: good for the performer or just no way. I mean,
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: I totally the only reason I did it because I
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: trust Phelipe. I know his audience is hell of fun
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: and hello dope and hello chill. So I was like,
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: I'm I know, I'll be fine. I know my material
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: will be fine. It's just that I'm gonna have to
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: talk myself into again what I just said. When I'm
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: on stage and the audience, I don't have a reaction,
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: I'll take it out on them, right, and sometimes it's
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: good and sometimes it's bad. So I had to tell myself,
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: you're not going to get a reaction period at all,
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: so you need to not be a bit about it
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: to the next joke. So that's what I did, and
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: it was it wasn't fun, And it was how funny
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: because the first night was two hundred cars, which was
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: a lot of cars. You kind of only just vibe
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: off the people in the front row that are sitting
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: on their truck beds or if they're sitting outside of
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: their car or whatever. But the second show is four
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: hundred cars. Four cars. It's a lot of cars, huge
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: field of cars. And Felippe's wife after my set, uh
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: because from where she was standing, she heard a lot
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: of laughter. Right, But when you're outside the sound goes up.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: It's not going towards me. So I get off stage
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: and she goes myrself, wasn't this so much more fun
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: than yesterday? I said, No, it wasn't. It was just
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: as terrible as it was last night. This ship is
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: not fun, but I get it. These people are paying
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: a lot of money to be entertained because they want
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: to get out of the house. So you do your job.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: It's the first time in a long time I'm like,
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: I'm doing a job, you know, and not my favorite
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: way to do stand up. Yeah, I mean I can
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: imagine we're all kind of just adapting, you know, as
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: as we can. Um. You know you so far you've
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: mentioned who We Love and Philippe Espasa, you know, and
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: you're also a prominent comedian right in the Latin X field,
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: in the field in general, where would you say the
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: current landscape is for Latin X comedy if you can
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: even like, is there a landscape? Like is everyone doing
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: their own thing? What do you think? What's your opinion?
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: I think right now it's it's still pretty much how
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: it's always been. It's either you're fucking doing the classic
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: Mexican material, because that's what a lot of the material
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: in America has been about, you know, um, or you're
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: doing your thing and you're not being included in the
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: Latino community, right because you know, you're either fucking us
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: or you're fucking you're fucking trying to be a thing.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: You know, like it's never you're not allowed to just
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: be what you are. And I'm I'm thankful that like
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: Ider Rodriguez is out there, you know, doing her fucking thing,
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: being a fucking loud and proud Latina and and helping
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: pave the way. But you know that also took Tiffany
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: Hattish bringing her up, giving her special, because we know
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: that I wasn't gonna get a special from these fucking
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: white people. They weren't gonna everyone the way she talks,
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: this is not I mean the way I talk. I'm
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: not funding Galina right now, and so that's just the
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: way it is. So it's the landscape is interesting because
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: it's it's literally a landscape. It's just it's a wide
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: field of a lot of people doing a lot of
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: different things, but it's still very divided. It's still very
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: we either look Latino or you don't. And then according
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: to that, they're gonna put you where they think you
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: should be. And that's what's frustrating, because it's like there's
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: a lot of comedians who are very good who aren't
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: getting the recognition they deserve because they're not doing, you know,
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: material that appeals to the Latino audience that the the
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: gatekeepers feel like they needs to be, you know, addressed.
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: When it's like Latina, we like everything, we like all
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: the things. We I was talking to somebody recently about how,
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: especially with Latinos, we we because she this girl just
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: got a really nice, great position at a bright, shining
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: new company and they're doing great. She's doing great, but
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: she was tripping, you know, because she was like I
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: just as as Latina, like, I feel very uncomfortable and
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: it's hard for me, and I'm scared, and i feel
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: like I have imposter syndrome. I'm like, why why you're
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: in You're in the comedy world. She's not a comedian,
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: but she's in the comedy world. And I'm like, as
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: as Latino, we've had to consume white mainstream media, We've
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: had to consume black mainstream media, and we've consumed the
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: fucking Latino. We even't consumed Sabel, though he got their
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: whole lives. We've consumed our ship and their ship, and
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: then somehow we're not allowed to be in any of it,
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: you know, especially if you start dabbling on one side
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: or the other, right, but we are sometimes more qualified
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: than ain't anybody because especially in that position that she's in,
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: where it's like she gets to say what is funny
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: and what's good because she has consumed so much over
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: the years from all the cultures, all the backgrounds, especially
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: in mainstream which for the most part, in mainstream American
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: entertainment is just white and black, and really has been
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: predominantly white because very black in the nineties, but then
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: that fucking disappeared and now starting to come back to
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: be Hella black helldo a lot of the great ship
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: for them, which is sucking, exciting and cool. We support it.
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: And then there's us where people are still like treating
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: us like it's the fucking indies. They're saying. I mean, look,
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: I'm excited about that Selena series on Netflix, but it's
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: like there's other latina's ye that have done great ship,
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: great ship. We We've we got all the series on her,
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: you know, absolutely, how any more series on white Latinas
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: do we need? Not more? But I just unsell my
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: own show, I think so well, you know, I like
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: definitely like hear what you're saying, because I am like
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: someone that consumes Latin X media, but I wouldn't what
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: what you consider like the slapstick Latin X comedy is
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: not what appeals to me. So I'm always looking for
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: something like, well, that's not really my humor, you know,
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: And so I'm trying to find my own lane of
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: what do I like and how can I consume it?
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: How can I support the comedians that are doing what
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: I like? Yeah, but that's what's tough is that there's
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: so much out there, and for us there's there's limited
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: right not just as consumers, but as as performers, as
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: as as entertainers, and so it's it's just gets really
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: tricky because you you want to support everyone, but everyone
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: doesn't want to support you, you know. That's that's what
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: sucks about being especially And I don't know because I'm
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: first generation. So when I was a kid, you know,
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: I was learning English, and I was like, let's consume
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: all the humor that we can because in our household,
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: we love to laugh, of course, so we would consume
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: so much. Like we weren't allowed to watch sm NOL,
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: but we could watch and Living Color, you know, we
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: would watch all those goofy as eighties movies we were
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: I got so much diversity and comedic entertainment that it
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: like blows my mind that it's still so fucking separated,
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: you know, because it's like we can all, we can
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: all be in this, but it just it just doesn't
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: work that way, which sucks, but it should, alright, y'all.
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: So today we're excited to talk about one of our
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: favorite brands that we've had the pleasure of working with, Quip,
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: And today we're gonna be talking about flossing. Do you
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: ever floss on the go? Do you ever floss in
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: between work meetings, especially now zoom meetings when you're eating
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: something quick? And did you know this shocked me that
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: only one out of every two people brush twice a
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: day and the same goals for flossing regularly. What type
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: of person are you? Well, I definitely like to brush
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: my teeth twice a day. I could do better on

  Speaker 1: look at quip better oral health made simple. I've been
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: watching binging all the news, all the old shows that
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: they've put back on Netflix now, like I've I've been
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: watching Sister Sister and Half in Half one on one
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: and Militia, Girlfriends, Girlfriends, and it's so true like and
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: in particular representations of Black women in these different sorts
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: of sitcom. And what I marvel at definitely is like,
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: I have so much respect for Black Hollywood and the
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: way that they've built for themselves and for each other
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: and put one another on. And I wish that in
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: Latin X spaces there wasn't such a desire to aspire
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: to whiteness and blending into whiteness. Because we've had our
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: big superstars, like we can look back and look at
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: the j Los into this and that. What have they
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: sort of created for the next generation? Which exactly, And
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: that's the problem. That's the problem. And it goes back
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: to because, um, when when that list came out about
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: Latin I there's no Latin X showrunners and that list
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: that came out, it's a bunch of a bunch of
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: different backgrounds, but apparently no latinos. Right. But I'm curious,
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: like who's helping the latin X showrunners, because like, Okay,
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: I don't want to talk to anybody, but there's quite
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: a few Latinos and Latinos that have their own shows
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: or or in projects, and it's like, how are they
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: not lift being up our people? It's great to lift
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: up everyone else. I totally think we should, but it's like,
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: how do you not see behind the camera that there
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: isn't your own people? And how it just it just
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: shocks me. It fucking shocks me, because you're totally right,
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: that's that's part of the problem, and it's truly exhausting
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: to do that work, because that was the thing about
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: women Crush Wednesdays. It was it came from that that
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: place of like how am I trying? Like I'm trying
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: to do comedy and and work in diverse places, but
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: people aren't allowing me to. I have to be the
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: only woman on the show, I have to be the
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: only Latino, or I can only do Latino shows, or
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: I have on the token this or whatever. And I
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: hated that because I was like, there's so many funny women,
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: why can't we all be hunish not all of us
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: be on a show? But how often there was especially
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: fifteen years ago there was six guys and and one
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: woman on a show, and and then and back then,
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: it was like it's you and Ali Wa and we
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: already got Ali Wong, so you'll do the next one.
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, why can't we both be on the
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: same show? What if I'm not available next month? Like
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: the ship don't make no fucking sense? And I had that.
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: I had someone say that to me recently about a
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: Latino show. We're doing this Latino show, and I was like, Oh,
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: I'm unavailable, and he goes, all right, we'll get you
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: on the next one. And then I came back like
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: a few days later, like, hey, I'm available now can
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: I still do that show? Did you already feel the spot?
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: And he goes, oh, we already have a woman on
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: the show. And I was like what what? I was like,
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: you have one woman on the show and I can't
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: be on the show now, Like like the Latinos are
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: still doing the bullshit that was happening fifteen years ago
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: in the white spaces, and now the white spaces are
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: trying to be more diverse. They're not great at it,
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: but they're trying. I saw all that ship, And that's
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: part of what Women Crushed was was I was trying
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: to put the work because I was like, there's funny
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: women everywhere, and because the comedy seems so segregated. But
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: I was like, I can I can see all because
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: I would go to all the scenes. I would that
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: was you know, that's what comedy as you do, all
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: the scenes, you do, all the shows, you do all
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: the stages. That's what I would do. And I'd be like,
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: I want her on my next show. I want I
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: want her, I want her, I want her. I want
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: her in every space because I know that there's enough
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: and there's also space for lifting up the people that
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: are coming up. Okay, you don't have ten minutes, bitch,
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: but you got a decent five. I'm gonna give you
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: five minutes, and you gotta rock that ship. I even
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: remember telling one white girl she fucking did terrible on
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: my show. I almost didn't rebook her because I was like,
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: but I knew that the set that she sent in
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: was really funny. So I rebooked her like a year
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: later because I'm like, all right, she'll probably, you know,
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: have a little more experience by then. And she came
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: and she fucking crushed it. And I told her straight up,
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: because I'm sometimes too honest for my own good. I
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: was like, girl, you know what, I almost didn't rebook
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: you because you did so bad on the first show.
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: I was like, but you killed it tonight. She was like,
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: you know what. I was so nervous. I had never
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: performed at the Hollywood Improv. That was my first time
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: performing in a comedy club. She was like, I was
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: so nervous that I that I did I ate ship
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: And I was like, oh, I forget, I forget that
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: I'm actually handing up her unities. Two people and they're
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: getting seen because at my show they would always be
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: industry watching. And it's one of those things where it's
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: like when even when you do the work and you
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: have somebody sucks it up, that doesn't mean that you
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: shouldn't give them the chance. You know, you gotta keep
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: keep keep trying and trying because we're all in this
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: for the long or hopefully we're all those in this
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: for the long run. But with that, I do agree
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: that Latino they gonna be pulling each other up in
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: every direction, you know. Yeah, And this is fascinating to
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: me too, because any chance I get to shoot on
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: men in the community, I will take it right so,
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: because part of what I'm hearing is that the o
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: G comedy gate keepers, who probably are the ones most
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: likely to create opportunities, have been like older cheek on
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: on men. I'm thinking, you know, the Paul Rodriguez is
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: and the cheeches and the chongs and the George Lopez
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: and then this and that, like we know who they are,
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean, And especially kind of like
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: the way that this coincides with the me Too movement
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: and knowing how comedy guys have been really garbage just
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: women historically. Can we blame Latino men in particular for
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: the sorry state of comedy today? I think so, you know,
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: and I got it. That's another shout. I gotta give
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: it to Felipe that motherfucker loves having at least a
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: woman on the show. One woman sometimes too, if you know,
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: because you know when you have a three person show,
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: you know, he has his his um host, that motherfucker's
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: been hosting him for him for years. Rodrigo Torre's shout
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: out to him. It's funny, but he's like, that's the host,
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: so he'll have a middle act and then Felipe right,
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: so he does. He tries to put a woman on
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: the show and tries to have her. He wants features,
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: he wants women that are so funny that they can
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: go on second and he's really good at it. He's
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: giving a lot of opportunities to a lot of women,

• 31:53
  Speaker 1: past and was like, why aren't we helping each other?
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: You know? And he's doing it. So that's the thing.
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: It does take people to help others because I know
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: my audience has expanded um through him. But I will
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: say also that these men that are in power, even
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: if it is just bookers in the middle of fu Usa,
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: like I had. Okay, one time I was opening for

• 32:53
  Speaker 1: we were sharing hotels, we were driving together, right and um,
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: So we get to the first show and this booker
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: is upset that this full Chris my friend is having
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: to go on before me. Why is she going on
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: before you? That's disrespectful what he tells Chris. And Chris
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: is like, whoa buddy, you know, like she's really funny.
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: You have to trust Philippe. Felippe has her going on
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: as a feature because she is fucking funny. You have
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: to trust Felippe. He goes, I just think it's disrespectful.
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: Whatever in sidebar, that full try to show me my
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: my pay for that show. Phelippe was right there right
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: when he did it. And Phelippe even said, is all
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: the money there? And I said nope, and anyway, but
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: that whatever, I got my money whatever. But it was
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: the same guy, which is the character that this person is.
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: So then this full the second night, I think we
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: like get switched or something because it's full. I don't
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: remember what happened, what happens? What the really the real
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: story is this motherfucker was so upset that this Chris
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: friend of mine, he's known him for years, He's never
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: heard of me, So why would I go on after him.
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: He's so upset that he's going on before me, that
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: he's getting paid less to me, This booker pays my
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: friend out of his pocket extra money because he feels
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: so disrespected on behalf of this full Chris. Isn't that
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: fucking crazy? Because of me? Because of me and ps
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: I crushed these shows. The man's wife came up to
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: me and was like, you're so fucking funny girl. Oh
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: my god. Everyone loved me. People were coming up to me.
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: It didn't matter. He didn't care, and he just you know,
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: traditional chic got oh my cheese more bullshit. But I'll
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: always remember that, like, you're you're my people, you're at
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: my back, and you don't. You're you're fucking trying to
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: put me down, trying to make an awkwarry between me
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: and my friend. It's not fucking crazy paid amount of
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: his own money, that's ridiculous, but it's like some intense
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: commitment to the patriarchy because I keep the get like,
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: Damn Philippe is trying to uplift a woman to the
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: point where she's getting paid more than the other openers,
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: and this fool is like, nah, man, that's not how
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: we do things. What a question? Has this ever had
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: a woman performed before you? No? Oh? Like ever, who wait,
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: who are you talking about? Like the comedian friend Chris Chris? Yeah,
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: like or the guy that was upset, Like, has a
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: woman performed before him? Like a comedian, he's just a
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: guy that runs shows. This is a motherfucker that has
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: access to providing income for other people. He's yeah, I mean,
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: it's like, it's crazy. It's crazy to think about that ship.
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: It's also crazy because you know, uh, prop sixteen, it's
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: a prop sixteen. Yeah, that it's it's reversing that, um
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: how they struck down in firm and of action with
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: Prop two nine, And so we're voting on that for
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: this election, and you vote yes to repeal that because
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: we should give opportunities to everyone. But I just keep
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: thinking about how um people go out of their way
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: to do so much discriminating And it's like, how often
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: does that man get discriminated against. It's like he's passing
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: that bullshit down. He doesn't see how fucking terrible it is,
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: and he's doing it to his own people, which makes
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: me wonder what the funk he's doing to other people? How?
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: How does he see black people? How does he see
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: white people better than he obviously sees men and women
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: as completely two different species. It's fucking crazy. I'm really
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: upset now, right, It's so true. It's like we're expected
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: to like take the brunt of that because oh, the
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: Latino men, the Latinos are getting discriminated again. So then
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: they come and you know, want to puns it up
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: for us, right, I try to us and harm us, bucket,
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: you know, it's crazy. It also tells me though, like
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: if that's like one example, bowl of one gate keeper
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: and then at like a taste maker in some ways
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: because exactly he's choosing lineups and things. So how does
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: the actual comedy and the show suffer when fools like
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: that are the ones deciding who's performing and exactly. And
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: then think about the audience, because if say the three
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: of us were like, oh, we're gonna go to the
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: they have monthly comedy shows, let's just go because we
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: just want to go see comedy. And then because that
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: motherfucker is the one book in these shows, imagine the
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: bullshit we're watching right watching fucking, straight up carbon bullshit
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: comedians because this fool doesn't think women are funny, doesn't
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: think you know what I mean, No taste, no taste,
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: no taste. It's a it's a trickle down effect. And
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: that's why it's so frustrating, because I also think about
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: how often I've gotten messages from comedians in the past
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: that you know, stayed where they were, um, didn't keep going, uh,
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: only dabble with it now, And how often I get
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: messages from people like that in the past that are like,
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: you are I can't believe you're still doing it. You're
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: so strong. This game is really fucking hard. There's so
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: much people don't know, and you're still doing it. You're
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: still trying to make people laugh, You're still trying to
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: have a message, You're still trying to like do your
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: and still be you and still be happy. And I'm
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: always like, yeah, you're right, she fucking I am strong.
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: This ship it sucks. Yeah, I mean absolutely, speaking of
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: you know, we would love to support you and all
• 38:30

• 38:32

  Speaker 1: and that came out in last year and I'm still

• 40:23
  Speaker 1: listen to it and I'm like, damn you were Hella laughing.
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: It was like two near Wendo and I was like,
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: I don't did that ship? That was a fun one. Yes,
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: it is a hilarious album. It's a comedy album, right,
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: that's what you call it. It's an album. And um. Also,
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: Marcella is just like the ill hip hop head and
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: I love him, Yes, And I love how that comes
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: out in your comedy and in The Woke Bully is
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: definitely infused in there, which I always appreciate. You know
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: What's funny because I don't consider myself a hip hop head.
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: I've always said I'm a hip hop little sister because
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: you know, like I learned from my brothers, you know,
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: because I wasn't like super into the hip hop or
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: rap when I was young. And you know what, did
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: you guys read the Mariah Carey book. Yeah, it's I
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: really want to listen to it as an audio book
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: because it's it's a lot childhood stuff is a lot.
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: I read that section hell is slow and uh, and
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: apparently when she's reading it, she gets very emotional, like
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: holding it back emotionally that kind of thing. So I'm
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: actually saving the audio. I'm gonna listen to the audio
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: book on a long trip um when I can just
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: like cry alone in the car um and yeah that
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: that she is so good. But she she you know,
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: I loved her as a kid, and my sister loved her.
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: We still I still have all the CDs from from
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: when we were kids, and she has this great little
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: uh section. I won't spoil it, but she just talks
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: about how she loved having rappers in her in her
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: all of her songs, which we know, but I keep thinking, like, damn.
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: I think she was probably one of the reasons I
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: was able to transit into like really appreciating rapping hip
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: hop because I was like, we love Mariah. My brothers were,
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: of course, were obsessed with the woutang, so like when
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: you know, yeah, when the worlds collided, you're just like, Okay,
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: I guess we can all listen to this and then
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: it kind of like you start bleeding into the other ship.
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: And I mean I was, I was an older team
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: when I got into wrapping hip hop, but yeah, I
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: mean I do. I always find it fascinating when people
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: consider me a hip hop app but I guess I do.
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: I do know more than the average person. But yeah,
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: I do love hip hop. Yeah, and I appreciate, you know,
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: seeing those parts of your personality come out, especially going
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: back to this idea of like Latina was in comedy
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: and what are the jokes about? And what's funny? And
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: I will scream at the next like Latina comedian whose
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: punchlines are just putting on a Spanish accent, Like the
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: accent itself is the punchline. Honestly, I hate that ship.
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: And it's so overdone. It's accents alone or not funny.
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: And today I was having lunch and I had, of
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: course cheatas you right, and that's it, and I'm joking, yeah, yeah,
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: we're done like whatevers. I mean, miha, And I was like, Mama,
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: that's exactly what we're talking about. I mean, and we
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: we get like we've had men on our I g lives,
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: like talk about the way we talk, right, because we
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: don't sound like, what what their ideas Latinas sound like
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: exactly because we're not sucking saying hot cheetos and mi
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: ha or not Latinas. It's also funny too because I also, uh,
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: because mama, you're what your third generation? Right? Yeah? Yeah,
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: so I what I find humorous because I don't know
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: if you guys know Lydia Popovitch. She is also I
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: want to say, third generations, very funny comedian, very funny
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: Latina comedian. And it's so funny to me because people
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: will they'll they'll they when they come to booking stuff,
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: they would rather have someone that looks like Mala, like Lydia,
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: because they're like, oh, she looks Latina And then they're like,
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: oh now, now tell us about your experience, with which
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: I'm third generation. I'm I followed on my dream fuck everybody,
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: and they're just like and then me, I'm fucking first generation,
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: Like yes, I like a motherfucker. But you know when
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: you look at me or like, well, she's not what
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: we are looking for, so we need a different look
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: so we can talk about the real experience and like,
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: I have the real experience. Are you crazy? Then? Are
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: you talking about It's like we're we're all Latinas. That's
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: what's fucking crazy is we are all Latinas. But the experience,
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: like the visual experience is what people are really trying
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: to consume right now, which is why it goes back
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: to like after Latinos, that whole conversation and you know,
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: anti colorism within Latino communities, and it's just like we
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: have We're barely there. We're barely starting that conversation, you know,
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: which is crazy. We're just decades behind, honestly, really and truly, Marcella,
