- 17:57Tony D.: Okay, I'll put it there for everybody If you were a part of the younger group, some of us are older and just remember, they're not like us.
- 18:06Carmen Lezeth: I'm just saying I knew it was bad music back then.
- 18:08Tony D.: That was a big concert.
- 18:09Tony D.: Big ups to the West Coast.
- 18:10Carmen Lezeth: Yeah.
- 18:11Carmen Lezeth: You're welcome, wait a minute Big ups to the West Coast.
- 18:14Carmen Lezeth: What?
- 18:15Maurio: You're welcome.
- 18:16Carmen Lezeth: But why is he thanking us?
- 18:18Maurio: He said big ups to the West Coast because Kendrick Lamar just shut down the West Coast with that amazing concert.
- 18:22Maurio: He had that pop-up concert.
- 18:24Maurio: It was phenomenal.
- 18:26Maurio: I know Carmen is like she's like who, what, when, where?
- 18:28Carmen Lezeth: I know who Kendrick Lamar is.
- 18:31Maurio: Okay, so do you know what they're not like?
- 18:33Carmen Lezeth: I don't know what you're talking about.
- 18:35Carmen Lezeth: I don't know what you're talking about?
- 18:36Carmen Lezeth: Well, because it was a pop-up concert.
- 18:37Maurio: It was a surprise concert.
- 18:39Maurio: I don't know Everybody about this rap battle between Drake Drake and Kendrick Lamar.
- 18:46Maurio: I know about that.
- 18:47Carmen Lezeth: I am not paying attention to the gossip.
- 18:48Carmen Lezeth: I know who they are.
- 18:50Alma: It's not the gossip, it's the song.
- 18:52Maurio: It's the lyric.
- 18:53Maurio: If you listen to the lyrics of each diss track, savagery, savagery I apologize.
- 19:04Tony D.: I actually think meet the grams took out no Vaseline.
- 19:07Tony D.: I'm here for it.
- 19:08Tony D.: You think so?
- 19:09Tony D.: Yes, wow, that's big.
- 19:11Tony D.: That's been a lot.
- 19:12Tony D.: The grams was hurt my heart.
- 19:15Tony D.: Yeah, yeah it was not like us.
- 19:19Maurio: I would say, took out maybe second round knockout by cannabis but listen, the fact that people are still having asking questions about 69 god, the 69 god lyric, and they're misinterpreting that whole thing.
- 19:36Maurio: I was like are you kidding me?
- 19:38Tony D.: this man is a laureate and he is a wordsmith and I want to apologize, but I know you like when we talk about rap and this is actually funny.
- 19:47Tony D.: That damn.
- 19:48Tony D.: Kendrick Lamar is a monster.
- 19:49Tony D.: Yes, to be messed with.
- 19:52Carmen Lezeth: I can appreciate that.
- 19:53Carmen Lezeth: Doesn't he have a Pulitzer?
- 19:56Carmen Lezeth: He already has a Pulitzer, I'm not going to question him.
- 20:00Tony D.: It's scary because Dre's beats number one are original and then Kendrick's rhymes number two are original.
- 20:05Tony D.: They have got to be the most lethal combo in hip-hop right now.
- 20:08Tony D.: Yes, and I will say that anybody out there that doesn't know, ramblin' is going to give you some notes right now.
- 20:13Tony D.: Do not mess with Kendrick Lamar, don't play with him.
- 20:14Tony D.: He did three of his songs damn near in a week and took one of the number one hip-hoppers of this generation in this time frame and these scales and these charts out.
- 20:22Tony D.: Yes, he did.
- 20:24Maurio: He hurt him, and then they get a parody song about him called.
- 20:29Tony D.: DBL Drizzy.
- 20:29Tony D.: Yeah, I haven't heard that yet.
- 20:30Tony D.: I don't even want to.
- 20:31Tony D.: I don't even want to In the intro to Euphoria.
- 20:36Tony D.: And then he started rapping.
- 20:36Tony D.: I almost crashed my car.
- 20:38Alma: I crashed your car, Carmen.
- 20:41Maurio: Carmen Carmen.
- 20:42Alma: I'm just I'm trying to be Carmen.
- 20:43Carmen Lezeth: Cynthia and Rick.
- 20:45Carmen Lezeth: I'm trying to be kind and let you talk about it, but yeah, I'm bored out of my mind.
- 20:48Carmen Lezeth: I have no idea what you're talking about and I know Cynthia and Rick aren't chiming in, but I feel comfortable speaking for them as well.
- 20:57Tony D.: It's interesting when I talk about music afterwards, because he knows I do music and Cynthia just got back from vacation.
- 21:01Tony D.: Cynthia, I'll hold you to Georgia Southern.
- 21:03Maurio: Yeah, how was Italy?
- 21:06Cynthia: So it had ups and downs Really.
- 21:11Alma: What happened.
- 21:12Cynthia: You're being so diplomatic Go ahead, girl.
- 21:14Rick Costa: We're all ears.
- 21:15Rick Costa: We're all ears.
- 21:17Cynthia: So okay.
- 21:17Cynthia: So we flew to Italy and from the airport to the boat terminal it was about an hour and 40 minutes and we pretty much just made it because everything was so unorganized at that airport In Venice.
- 21:36Maurio: In Venice.
- 21:37Cynthia: Yeah, in Venice Marco Polo Airport is so unorganized.
- 21:39Maurio: Wow.
- 21:43Cynthia: We got on the boat, everything was good.
- 21:44Cynthia: We were supposed to have one night in venice, but they they changed it and we stopped in another port in croatia which reminded me of new york.
- 21:55Cynthia: It was very dirty and like there were no.
- 21:58Cynthia: New york is in the house.
- 21:59Carmen Lezeth: Be careful, new york is in the house.
- 22:00Carmen Lezeth: I don don't like New York personally.
- 22:02Cynthia: Clearly Like it was scary just across the street because there was no crosswalks, there are no streetlights, like no red light, green light, no, it was just like there are no cars coming Run and yeah, it was crazy.
- 22:18Cynthia: So the first part we were just like, okay, whatever.
- 22:20Cynthia: The next day we went to Slovenia, which was beautiful.
- 22:23Cynthia: We went, whatever.
- 22:26Cynthia: Um, the next day we went to slovenia, which was beautiful.
- 22:28Cynthia: We went to the winery and it was up on a hill.
- 22:29Cynthia: It was absolutely gorgeous and they had really good wine and the tour guide took us to this one area where you could see italy, croatia and slovenia.
- 22:36Cynthia: It was beautiful and one viewing you mean in one viewing, one viewing mountain, you could see all three countries.
- 22:41Cynthia: It was amazing.
- 22:42Cynthia: And then, um, she took us down to basically like the downtown area.
- 22:48Cynthia: We went through all these little like alleyways and the woman knew her history, like she was an amazing tour and at the end of the tour she had us go to this little like cafe.
- 22:58Cynthia: They had wine and bread and pancetta and like all those, everything waiting for us.
- 23:03Cynthia: So it was really awesome.
- 23:05Cynthia: The next day we went to Bromnik, croatia, which was beautiful, and I highly recommend it.
- 23:13Cynthia: It's where they filmed Game of Thrones.
- 23:17Cynthia: And it's beautiful.
- 23:18Cynthia: It's all mountains and you can see this big castle and you can walk the castle.
- 23:23Cynthia: It takes about two hours.
- 23:24Cynthia: We didn't do that.
- 23:25Cynthia: But down at the bottom of the castle is like all these little shops and all this beautiful stonework, like everything was made by hand, no machinery at all, and then they had like a little pier where all these fishing boats would come in and we had lunch right out of the pier.
- 23:39Cynthia: It was beautiful there.
- 23:41Cynthia: I definitely want to go back to that place.
- 23:45Maurio: I got a question for you.
- 23:46Maurio: Yeah, when you're in italy, when you're in venice, did you get on the gondola at all?
- 23:50Cynthia: no, we actually didn't end up um staying in venice at all you missed your madonna moment yeah, we didn't that's what you missed on the downer moment.
- 23:59Maurio: You were supposed to get on there and sing like a virgin and do a whole thing.
- 24:01Maurio: You're supposed to tell Juan you made it through the wilderness and you know, you made it through.
- 24:12Carmen Lezeth: But the reason why you didn't like it wasn't because of the city.
- 24:16Carmen Lezeth: It was because, like all family, it's difficult to travel with family.
- 24:21Cynthia: At some points the family situation was a little annoying, but the one good thing about ships is you can go off on your own and do whatever you want.
- 24:29Alma: How many of you are there?
- 24:31Cynthia: There's five of us.
- 24:31Cynthia: So it was me and my husband, my sister and her two daughters, which are both in their 30s, and so we went to Greece for three days.
- 24:42Cynthia: Three different places in Greece.
- 24:43Cynthia: What we were supposed to do three places in Greece.
- 24:44Cynthia: Well, we were supposed to do three places in Greece.
- 24:45Cynthia: Corfu is another like historic place.
- 24:48Cynthia: Bless you, san Trini.
- 24:49Cynthia: I was excited to go to San Trini, so disappointed when I got there.
- 24:56Maurio: That's what everybody keeps telling me.
- 24:58Cynthia: Yeah, it's like, unless you're staying on the actual town of Ia, which is where San Trini is, if you're not staying in their area, you're basically just traveling through desert, because that's what it looked like.
- 25:11Cynthia: It was like just barely any houses, just very not green at all.
- 25:17Cynthia: It was, and the reason being is because it's actually lava.
- 25:22Cynthia: The whole mountain is built from lava and it's sitting on natural active volcano.
- 25:27Cynthia: The volcano is underwater, so that was pretty cool.
- 25:31Cynthia: But what they don't tell you is that during the tour, you know you think you're gonna go up on the bus up to the top of sanctuary.
- 25:38Cynthia: No, you have to walk up all these stairs.
- 25:40Cynthia: I nearly had an asthma attack and, mind you, it was so crowded because there were four other ships there, so it was crazy busy and again, you only had like half an hour to see all of it.
- 25:54Cynthia: Yeah, and I was just like you know what?
- 25:57Cynthia: We took some pictures.
- 25:57Cynthia: I'll zoom in.
- 25:58Cynthia: I'm good and I was like back on the bus.
- 26:01Cynthia: I was so over it and it was hot, it was so hot.
- 26:08Alma: I was so over it.
- 26:09Alma: I know you were disappointed.
- 26:10Alma: Huh, I know you were disappointed.
- 26:13Cynthia: I was.
- 26:14Cynthia: I was so disappointed.
- 26:14Cynthia: And then we were supposed to go to Mykonos the following day, but the wind was so heavy and the water was so choppy they didn't even stop at Mykonos.
- 26:23Carmen Lezeth: Wow, which is the whole point, I think, of the whole trip of your artillery was yeah, yeah, oh and I don't, carmen, I don't even think I told you this.
- 26:30Cynthia: so in san serenity, the only way down from the mountain is either walking down like 600 steps next to donkey poop and donkeys or going down a cable car that only holds 36 people at a time when you have four cruise ships there.
- 26:44Cynthia: So it was complete chaos.
- 26:45Cynthia: It was only supposed to go till 9pm.
- 26:48Cynthia: It was going until 1030.
- 26:49Cynthia: And people were left.
- 26:51Cynthia: The ship left and the people who were left from our ship found their way to Mykonos, thinking they could get back on the ship in Mykonos.
- 27:01Maurio: And we didn't even get to.
- 27:02Cynthia: Mykonos.
- 27:03Cynthia: So we were two days at sea and then the last stop was in Split, croatia.
- 27:09Cynthia: So we're hoping those people were able to get there at least to get back on the ship and get their stuff.
- 27:13Cynthia: Yeah, it was crazy.
- 27:16Carmen Lezeth: And then again, I never want to go on a ship.
- 27:18Carmen Lezeth: I've never heard a great story about being on a cruise ship Never.
- 27:21Cynthia: This was the first time I've ever had a bad experience, because I've been on cruise ships before and this was the first time I had a bad experience.
- 27:26Cynthia: Yeah and then coming back.
- 27:30Cynthia: We missed our connecting flight because of the wind in Switzerland.
- 27:35Cynthia: It was so windy we missed the connecting flight, got stuck in Switzerland for the night, waited three hours in line just to get to the front counter to get a hotel and food vouchers and get our new flight for the next day see, I'm stressed already.
- 27:48Carmen Lezeth: Oh yeah, and they lost my husband's luggage.
- 27:50Carmen Lezeth: It was, yeah, but better ones than yours, I'm just and uh, they ended up finding it.
- 27:59Cynthia: They found it and delivered it, which was great.
- 28:00Cynthia: Um, one of my nieces got stuck in new york and with food poisoning.
- 28:04Cynthia: Her luggage was in germany.
- 28:05Cynthia: Oh my, they finally delivered hers.
- 28:05Cynthia: Yeah, it was, which was great.
- 28:05Cynthia: One of my nieces got stuck in New York with food poisoning.
- 28:05Cynthia: Her luggage was in Germany, but they finally delivered hers.
- 28:09Cynthia: It was definitely a trip to remember.
- 28:12Maurio: You didn't have bed bugs.
- 28:14Carmen Lezeth: That's all I'm saying.
- 28:15Carmen Lezeth: No bed bugs.
- 28:18Rick Costa: Did the airport pay for the hotel?
- 28:21Cynthia: That was a funny thing.
- 28:22Cynthia: There was this lady who was at one of the little booths before you got to the counter.
- 28:25Cynthia: She was giving the wrong information to people.
- 28:28Cynthia: She was telling people that they had to pay for their own hotel and food and then send the receipts to swiss air and they'll reimburse them.
- 28:34Cynthia: And I said, yeah, no, this does not happen.
- 28:36Cynthia: I'm staying in this line.
- 28:37Cynthia: How long it takes you to get?
- 28:39Alma: to that counter and the only time they reimburse is if they lose your luggage and you have to go buy all your toiletries and your clothes and stuff like that.
- 28:46Alma: That's when you send the receipts and they reimburse you.
- 28:48Alma: But if it's for hotels and food, then you have to stand in that line and get the vouchers.
- 28:53Cynthia: Which is what we did.
- 28:54Cynthia: I was not leaving that place without it.
- 28:56Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, yeah.
- 28:57Carmen Lezeth: That's why I only go bougie.
- 28:58Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean.
- 28:59Carmen Lezeth: Like I go high-end bougie, I'm going to roll my eyes on that one.
- 29:07Carmen Lezeth: Well, I don't do boats anyway, so it doesn't matter.
- 29:08Carmen Lezeth: I'm never going to be on a cruise.
- 29:10Tony D.: The complications of international travel.
- 29:12Tony D.: She has actually broken them down and they give me anxiety just listening, because imagine being in New York and your luggage is in Germany.
- 29:17Tony D.: That would drive me bananas.
- 29:19Tony D.: My flight gets canceled.
- 29:21Tony D.: I don't want to give a flight.
- 29:23Tony D.: I want a street flight there, a street flight back.
- 29:26Tony D.: That's why I get the hell out of the way.
- 29:29Maurio: We were coming back from Barcelona and our group got split, which was fine, because I was sick of their asses by the end of the trip.
- 29:38Cynthia: My sentiments exactly with our situation.
- 29:42Maurio: But other than that we didn't have any other problems.
- 29:45Carmen Lezeth: But, cynthia, what have we learned and what are we doing when we go to Ireland and Scotland next year?
- 29:50Cynthia: Oh, we stay in one place for a few days and we're relaxing.
- 29:53Carmen Lezeth: And how are we going?
- 29:54Carmen Lezeth: First class?
- 29:56Cynthia: Thank you, see how easily I convert people to bougie Listen A.
- 29:59Cynthia: I was in the economy seat no sorry yeah.
- 30:04Cynthia: Eight hours in an economy seat no sorry yeah.
- 30:05Alma: That was our thing.
- 30:06Alma: Yeah, we definitely made sure that we stayed a few days in each place, right, because you have enough time to see and you have enough time to be able to sit and relax and go back and, you know, do what you need to do and then you know, keep moving.
- 30:19Alma: But yeah, that cruise ship turnaround was that was really short.
- 30:21Alma: Yeah, you said you got a half an hour on one place.
- 30:23Alma: Yeah, that cruise ship turnaround was.
- 30:25Rick Costa: That was really short.
- 30:25Rick Costa: You said you got a half an hour on one place.
- 30:27Rick Costa: I'm like what's the point?
- 30:28Cynthia: Right, like they tell you the excursions are four hours but they don't tell you yeah, it takes an hour and a half to get there, an hour and a half back, so you really only have like a half hour to an hour to see the sights.
- 30:38Carmen Lezeth: No, that's craziness, that's craziness.
- 30:41Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, that's craziness, that's craziness yeah.
- 30:43Tony D.: And, mind you, like she said there was on, it was a cable that was mentioned or walk down the hill and there's four cruise ships.
- 30:49Tony D.: I already hear 6,000 folks.
- 30:50Tony D.: That ain't working.
- 30:51Cynthia: Right right.
- 30:52Tony D.: Exactly.
- 30:54Cynthia: And one woman actually got bit by one of the donkeys, oh my God.
- 30:57Cynthia: Yeah, she had a big gash in her arm, I'm, but it kind of is All right.
- 31:04Cynthia: Another person got kicked by one, and then another person fell a couple of steps down, but you know what?
- 31:11Alma: I was probably the person who was trying to take a picture with the donkey and got kicked.
- 31:13Alma: Ok, that's really what happened.
- 31:15Alma: They're like oh, he's so cute, got kicked, got bit, because those are the ones that it happens to.
- 31:21Maurio: And just imagine falling in all of that donkey poop.
- 31:25Carmen Lezeth: I just feel like it just sounds too convoluted for me, too congested of a situation everywhere where you guys got to stop and everything.
- 31:34Cynthia: Yeah, it really does.
- 31:36Maurio: It's the fourth season too, right we're basically in the middle of.
- 31:40Cynthia: June so.
- 31:42Carmen Lezeth: Rick, how about you?
- 31:43Carmen Lezeth: You haven't spoken much.
- 31:44Carmen Lezeth: How was the presidential debate?
- 31:46Carmen Lezeth: On that note we don't talk about politics up in here it's Friday night, we can talk about whatever you want, since I heard people bitching on your show.
- 31:55Carmen Lezeth: Oh my goodness on your.
- 31:57Rick Costa: Christian religious show, that's fine, I just caught like highlights and reviews and it was like they were going to say it was a mess.
- 32:06Carmen Lezeth: I don't think it was a mess.
- 32:07Carmen Lezeth: I think Joe Biden had a horrible performance and really made Democrats question which Democrats are such wusses?
- 32:16Carmen Lezeth: I say that as a full-fledged Democrat.
- 32:18Carmen Lezeth: We have no loyalty whatsoever.
- 32:20Carmen Lezeth: People are asking him to leave.
- 32:21Carmen Lezeth: They want Gavin Newsom to jump in.
- 32:23Carmen Lezeth: I'm like, uh, kamala harris is right there.
- 32:26Rick Costa: you know what I mean oh, I heard her talk about it because they were like what did you think?
- 32:28Rick Costa: And she's like well, he finished, or he finished strong.
- 32:31Carmen Lezeth: This beginning wasn't so hot, well, no I mean, if I mean, if you didn't watch the whole thing, you, he, it was not good, it was there were so many things wrong with what happened and, um, it was a bad performance and it made people question, didn't make me question, it didn't make me go.
- 32:45Carmen Lezeth: You know what?
- 32:46Carmen Lezeth: I am gonna vote for trump did not do that at all.
- 32:49Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean.
- 32:51Carmen Lezeth: I would rather a comatose joe biden than a trump, any day of the week and twice on sundays.
- 32:55Alma: You know what I'm saying.
- 32:56Alma: He did send a message out I don't know, you know to his uh biden, saying that you know he's not young anymore, that he's old and he's moving slower and talking slower and he can't debate as well as he used to.
- 33:09Alma: But you know, he says if I didn't feel like I could do the job, then I would, you know I wouldn't be running again.
- 33:14Maurio: He said I'd rather speak slow and tell the truth than speak fast and tell you a bunch of lies speak fast and tell you a bunch of lies.
- 33:23Carmen Lezeth: And can I just say that's what was interesting watching it is because of how badly he did performance wise.
- 33:29Carmen Lezeth: There was mumbling, there was stuttering, there was, you know, looking the wrong way because he kind of wasn't in.
- 33:34Carmen Lezeth: He should have been on the other side of the podium because he tends to look it's kind of like me on here.
- 33:38Carmen Lezeth: I'm not looking at you guys, you know what I mean.
- 33:40Carmen Lezeth: Like there's just there was no audience to feed off of.
- 33:42Carmen Lezeth: There's so many reasons.
- 33:43Carmen Lezeth: It's not excuses.
- 33:43Carmen Lezeth: It was horrible.
- 33:44Carmen Lezeth: But here's the thing because everyone was so focused on how badly he was doing, no one paid attention to every single motherfucking lie that Trump was saying left and right and also that the moderators weren't even following up with Trump.
- 33:56Carmen Lezeth: Fake lies.
- 33:58Carmen Lezeth: No fact-checking at all.
- 33:59Carmen Lezeth: No fact-checking at all.
- 34:01Maurio: No fact-checking, but I'll tell you what Somebody wrote on Instagram today.
- 34:04Maurio: They said I'll vote for a weekend at Bernie's Joe Biden than I would ever for Trump.
- 34:15Carmen Lezeth: Go ahead, Tony.
- 34:16Carmen Lezeth: I think Tony's a Trump supporter, right.
- 34:18Tony D.: Thank you, Paul.
- 34:19Tony D.: Let me clear this up for everybody.
- 34:26Tony D.: I just got one question.
- 34:27Tony D.: I said this last night as it happened what the fuck are black jobs?
- 34:30Alma: Oh, that's what I was going to bring down there.
- 34:32Alma: You said black and brown.
- 34:33Alma: I was like huh, what are those jobs?
- 34:36Tony D.: Who thinks what?
- 34:37Tony D.: How am I supposed to behave?
- 34:38Tony D.: What the fuck are black jobs?
- 34:41Maurio: He said it without saying it.
- 34:43Tony D.: I understood where the question and why he responded specifically because he got to ask that it all went that way.
- 34:49Tony D.: But the whole thing was about immigration and taking jobs.
- 34:51Tony D.: If you running for president, it's supposed to be American jobs.
- 34:54Tony D.: You don't say black jobs and this is who y'all want to run.
- 34:59Tony D.: I said y'all go ahead.
- 35:00Tony D.: Y'all go ahead.
- 35:02Tony D.: They didn't do nothing to help Biden.
- 35:03Tony D.: If you vote for me, you're wearing black because this man said black.
- 35:05Tony D.: I'm just saying I put the two together.
- 35:08Tony D.: I'm good Now.
- 35:08Tony D.: Biden did not look good last night.
- 35:09Tony D.: His age was out more than anything.
- 35:10Tony D.: I can still see he's got it up here.
- 35:18Tony D.: He can't verbalize it.
- 35:19Tony D.: He's-rehearsed.
- 35:20Tony D.: He did not speak he over-rehearsed, but he doesn't have any voice.
- 35:23Tony D.: But every time Trump was here, that dude would look like him and I could see the old him still wanting to come out.
- 35:27Tony D.: I can't see it, but he just can't do it that way.
- 35:30Tony D.: This is why I always tell people his staff can carry him with no problem, but him being in front of things working out for him.
- 35:38Carmen Lezeth: Well, he did a public appearance today and everyone said it went fine.
- 35:41Maurio: Yeah, he did a public and his voice was back and he was back to his normal witty self, which was very Thank you, I don't look.
- 35:47Carmen Lezeth: 81 is 81, and if Trump was 45, maybe we would.
- 35:51Carmen Lezeth: I still would not vote for him.
- 35:53Carmen Lezeth: Let me be clear.
- 35:54Carmen Lezeth: But then you might have an argument about age, but I think he was horrible Like I'm not going to even try to show he was horrible last night, but it was one performance.
- 36:03Carmen Lezeth: What I hate about Democrats is we do not stick with our people.
- 36:08Carmen Lezeth: We're ready to drop them in five seconds.
- 36:10Carmen Lezeth: That's what the commentary was in the newspapers and everything I was watching today and reading.
- 36:14Carmen Lezeth: And you know well, gavin Newsom needs to step up.
- 36:17Carmen Lezeth: I'm like Gavin Newsom.
- 36:18Carmen Lezeth: He's not going to step up and do what.
- 36:19Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean, gavin Newsom.
- 36:20Carmen Lezeth: He's not going to step up and do what you know what I mean.
- 36:22Carmen Lezeth: He's going to support him is what he's going to do.
- 36:24Maurio: That's what he's going to do.
- 36:25Carmen Lezeth: But look at the Republicans.
- 36:26Carmen Lezeth: They are standing by.
- 36:28Carmen Lezeth: They're convicted, lying.
- 36:30Carmen Lezeth: I can go down all the adjectives.
- 36:32Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean.
- 36:33Carmen Lezeth: They are committed to this man no matter what, and this is what they always do.
- 36:37Carmen Lezeth: But Democrats are so wussy.
- 36:40Carmen Lezeth: We always want to do the right thing.
- 36:43Carmen Lezeth: We always want to think about you know what I mean Like what's in the best interest of the country.
- 36:45Carmen Lezeth: I think all that is great.
- 36:46Carmen Lezeth: That's who we are.
- 36:47Carmen Lezeth: But right now, abandoning a man who's had three and a half years of a really complete success of a country.
- 36:53Carmen Lezeth: I love Barack Obama with all my heart, but Biden is throwing him to like the corner with the amount of work he's done in the past three years.
- 37:00Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean.
- 37:01Carmen Lezeth: In the past three years, joe Biden has done more than most every other president in our modern times.
- 37:05Carmen Lezeth: That's crazy shit and that's just being honest.
- 37:08Carmen Lezeth: You know, and I just, I'm just sad that he had a bad night.
- 37:12Carmen Lezeth: You know that he was horrible and that he wasn't, you know, 60.
- 37:15Carmen Lezeth: I wish he was 60.
- 37:16Maurio: I wish you know but, yeah, it gave me anxiety to watch because I wanted him to do so well and so every time he didn't, I would go I'm gonna turn, turn it off and turn right back because I'm like, okay, I gotta get through these few seconds and you know I'll come back.
- 37:31Maurio: Because it was just, it was giving me anxiety to see him because, like, you want to see your guy.
- 37:35Maurio: Yeah, he was just struggling, yeah I think you're right.
- 37:39Carmen Lezeth: He over rehearsed.
- 37:39Carmen Lezeth: Somebody else said that um yeah somebody else said that he over rehearsed, but it doesn't matter, he's old.
- 37:44Carmen Lezeth: Even if he hadn't, I don't know why he thinks he has to rehearse against Donald Trump, who's an idiot when it comes to anything policy.
- 37:50Carmen Lezeth: I'm sorry, I know there are a lot of Trump supporters who watch our show and I hope you still will, but I'm just saying like I just feel really bad that a lot of people in this country think Trump is everything that he actually is not and they can't see that.
- 38:05Carmen Lezeth: And then when Biden has a really bad day and a really bad performance really really bad performance it kind of gives them more strength to believe in a man who really could give two shits about middle America and poor people.
- 38:19Carmen Lezeth: He could care less about white, middle and white poor people.
- 38:22Carmen Lezeth: He does not care about you.
- 38:22Carmen Lezeth: He's using you.
- 38:22Carmen Lezeth: He's using people.
- 38:22Carmen Lezeth: He could care less about white, middle and white poor people.
- 38:23Carmen Lezeth: He does not care about you.
- 38:23Carmen Lezeth: He's using you.
- 38:24Carmen Lezeth: He's using you.
- 38:25Carmen Lezeth: He's using you.
- 38:26Carmen Lezeth: He's using you.
- 38:27Carmen Lezeth: And this is so that the Republicans the ones who know better and are still backing him can keep getting all their tax breaks, can keep getting all their special interest stuff, can keep doing things like, by the way.
- 38:36Carmen Lezeth: The Supreme Court just came out with three major decisions today and no one's talking about it.
- 38:41Carmen Lezeth: They are going to affect all of us as middle American income earning people.
- 38:46Carmen Lezeth: It's devastating and women, women are going to like they, they, they.
- 38:51Carmen Lezeth: They just started the personhood crap with um.
- 38:55Carmen Lezeth: I don't want to get into the whole abortion thing, but that was one of the big ones too.
- 38:58Carmen Lezeth: Today is making the inroads to personhood.
- 39:02Carmen Lezeth: When you're, uh, when you have a fetus, right, is that the right word?
- 39:05Carmen Lezeth: It's just a mess.
- 39:08Maurio: And.
- 39:08Carmen Lezeth: I'm really sad for our country on so many levels, because it's too much to bear for one person, but Biden needed to do something different last night and he didn't accomplish it, and so I feel like we're back 10 steps, maybe 20 well, he said he wants to debate him again, but I don't know if there's a good thing we're backing at this point.
- 39:27Carmen Lezeth: I don't suggest it you know what I don't know.
- 39:33Carmen Lezeth: I don't.
- 39:33Carmen Lezeth: I don't know at this point what.
- 39:35Carmen Lezeth: I'm more upset because, look at, he had a bad night, but why didn't the moderators?
- 39:40Carmen Lezeth: Did I miss something?
- 39:40Carmen Lezeth: That the moderators couldn't intervene and ask follow-up questions with Trump?
- 39:43Carmen Lezeth: Like or like I don't understand what was going on there that they weren't?
- 39:46Carmen Lezeth: That's what I'm sad about.
- 39:48Carmen Lezeth: Nobody questioned, like I can say the sun is green and no one's going to question me.
- 39:52Carmen Lezeth: You're just all going to.
- 39:53Maurio: Let me say it over and over again on national television Well, the thing is, I think they felt like it was President Biden's job to check him on site, and he kept missing the mark.
- 40:05Carmen Lezeth: So they're not moderators, then they're just asking questions, not saying anything.
- 40:11Maurio: Yeah, and they both had to decide had to okay who the moderators were.
- 40:17Carmen Lezeth: Steve Tapper and Dana Bash.
- 40:19Maurio: Yeah, but I just didn't enjoy it.
- 40:22Maurio: I didn't enjoy the questioning.
- 40:24Maurio: I appreciate Dana, she would come back and say you know she would re-ask Trump about particular things that he would do.
- 40:31Maurio: He would make every other point but answer the question.
- 40:33Maurio: He would definitely deflect, but he didn't answer the question.
- 40:36Maurio: I appreciate him kind of redirecting him, but after you redirect three times and you choose not to to answer the question, that's your answer and you got to move on.
- 40:44Carmen Lezeth: So he was answering the question.
- 40:45Carmen Lezeth: I agree with you, but he was lying, right.
- 40:48Carmen Lezeth: I mean, it's not like he was just rambling.
- 40:51Carmen Lezeth: But look it, I'm not going to be like here's.
- 40:54Carmen Lezeth: Here's what the real problem is like to to take away from what biden wasn't able to do, because biden should have been able to do it, and it just sucks.
- 41:01Carmen Lezeth: But I also hate Democrats right now who are just, you know, in one hour have just let go of everything this man has done for the past three and a half years as president, everything that he has accomplished, everything that he cleaned up after Trump, and in one hour or whatever it was, an hour and a half, two hours are like he needs to do the right thing.
- 41:18Carmen Lezeth: Like there was a columnist in the New York Times who is a definite Biden supporter, democrat, whatever, and he wrote this whole thing about how he needs to step away and bow out.
- 41:28Carmen Lezeth: I'm like, are you out of your mind?
- 41:30Carmen Lezeth: Us asking that is, I think, horrible as a party.
- 41:35Carmen Lezeth: If he wanted to do that on his own now he can't because so many people have said it If he wanted to do that on his own, he could, but he wouldn't.
- 41:41Carmen Lezeth: Do you not know who Joe Biden is Like he wouldn't do that.
- 41:45Carmen Lezeth: It just I don't know.
- 41:47Carmen Lezeth: It really made me sad.
- 41:50Rick Costa: I think I heard somebody say like that they just can't decide that that he would have to say himself I'm stepping down.
- 41:55Rick Costa: They couldn't just say, well, we're going to stick somebody else there.
- 41:57Carmen Lezeth: First of all, you understand this has never been done.
- 41:59Carmen Lezeth: Even if we, like I don't even want to talk, it's never been done.
- 42:01Carmen Lezeth: No one's ever stepped away.
- 42:02Carmen Lezeth: We have, like what, how many months?
- 42:04Carmen Lezeth: We have November's right around the corner.
- 42:05Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean.
- 42:06Carmen Lezeth: It's never been done.
- 42:07Carmen Lezeth: You don't do that.
- 42:08Carmen Lezeth: But here's my thing, and this is the I'm going to throw in some 81, but he's done such a good job.
- 42:20Carmen Lezeth: But you know what?
- 42:21Carmen Lezeth: I'm still going to vote for him and if something happens, we have Kamala right there and to me, what pisses me off is that they keep talking about all these other people that should step in for Biden, and I'm like there is a woman who is vice president who is right there by his side.
- 42:35Carmen Lezeth: The same policies.
- 42:36Carmen Lezeth: We as Democrats should be stepping up and understanding that.
- 42:38Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean, and I don't care if you don't want her to be president.
- 42:41Carmen Lezeth: She is the vice president, she is second in line.
- 42:43Tony D.: You know what I mean.
- 42:44Tony D.: I'm sorry.
- 42:45Tony D.: She's already been president, that's right, I'm sorry.
- 42:50Tony D.: So people tend to forget that she's already been president.
- 42:52Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, what was it that happened?
- 42:53Carmen Lezeth: He was in surgery, right?
- 42:54Tony D.: Yeah, surgery she had to take the oath Right.
- 42:59Carmen Lezeth: To me, I feel like that's a strange.
- 43:00Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, he was about to be indicted.
- 43:02Carmen Lezeth: That's the thing.
- 43:03Carmen Lezeth: Trump is a convicted.
- 43:04Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, okay, I'm going to calm down, go ahead, this is why you can't talk politics.
- 43:08Tony D.: She ain't stop yet.
- 43:09Carmen Lezeth: I'm stopping right now.
- 43:10Carmen Lezeth: I let Mario say one word.
- 43:13Maurio: You did.
- 43:13Maurio: I'm going to put it in your white cup.
- 43:14Maurio: That's my word.
- 43:25Carmen Lezeth: Where's your white cup, oh?
- 43:25Maurio: no, I'm not drinking.
- 43:26Maurio: I'm not drinking with you people.
- 43:26Maurio: Where's your white cup?
- 43:27Maurio: That's what I got to say.
- 43:28Carmen Lezeth: No, I ain't going to drink over Trump.
- 43:30Carmen Lezeth: I'd be an alcoholic, I'd be like a magic.
- 43:37Rick Costa: Anthony fact-checked us.
- 43:38Rick Costa: He said Nixon stepped away.
- 43:39Tony D.: He did.
- 43:43Alma: No, it's not the same thing while he was in office they're talking about him stepping away while the all of this stuff is happening in front of him to run.
- 43:51Carmen Lezeth: Nixon didn't want to go to prison, he didn't want to be like trump was.
- 43:54Carmen Lezeth: That's a very different thing.
- 43:55Carmen Lezeth: That has nothing to do with running for your next right exactly that is not fact checking.
- 44:00Carmen Lezeth: Your fact checking isn't correct, my brother.
- 44:02Carmen Lezeth: I'm just saying Y'all look at me like, oh you know, okay, I'm going to be quiet, go ahead.
- 44:12Rick Costa: Somebody take over.
- 44:13Rick Costa: So what was good about Grease I?
- 44:14Carmen Lezeth: don't want to hear no more about our trip.
- 44:16Carmen Lezeth: Sorry text.
- 44:17Cynthia: No, I'm just kidding the food.
- 44:19Carmen Lezeth: Wait you just said to me about what you guys usually do on a Friday night, tony, they go to Disney.
- 44:24Tony D.: I'm not doing anything I have to.
- 44:25Tony D.: I'm actually off this weekend so I don't have to work tomorrow.
- 44:28Tony D.: My son's out of town with his sister.
- 44:31Tony D.: He's going to be there until next weekend.
- 44:32Tony D.: Next weekend I got to go to a wedding, so I've been kind of busy working and trying to keep myself on tonight.
- 44:37Carmen Lezeth: He said we are the hot date.
- 44:40Carmen Lezeth: We are the hot date tonight, but I usually think that you're, you know, going and doing other shows like this.
- 44:48Carmen Lezeth: Aren't there a lot of shows on Friday night?
- 44:50Tony D.: A lot of people.
- 44:50Tony D.: There are shows on Friday night.
- 44:51Tony D.: Not for me, but I've primarily just been up here with you the most consistently over the past few months.
- 44:56Tony D.: Like I said, I know Ted's busy.
- 44:58Tony D.: I haven't done much with mine.
- 44:59Carmen Lezeth: Oh my God, I texted him.
- 45:00Carmen Lezeth: He didn't text me back.
- 45:00Tony D.: That never happened, yeah he hasn't been answering a lot.
- 45:02Tony D.: I'll see him commenting every now and then with me and Brian in the group chat, but I do believe that he's tied up.
- 45:07Tony D.: I haven't even done my own thing lately, you should tell him he just did not.
- 45:12Carmen Lezeth: I'm insulted.
- 45:13Carmen Lezeth: If I text him he usually is like whatever I'm busy or whatever, you know that, or he's really mad at me, I don't know, I think he's just busy.
- 45:23Carmen Lezeth: I don't know Busy for me, it just feels odd.
- 45:26Carmen Lezeth: It's the little things that matter to me.
- 45:32Carmen Lezeth: What do you and Juan do on Friday nights?
- 45:35Cynthia: Nothing Watch, tv, watch movies, just chill.
- 45:40Rick Costa: I just try to relax, like I do every day dealing with you know what here?
- 45:44Tony D.: he needs a good clean month off.
- 45:45Tony D.: If he ever has a chance to sit down and it's scary, rick's gonna shut everybody and everything down for about two good weeks then he might peek his nose outside because he's not used to having him if rick took a week off, I'd be scared like when my mom was in the nursing home for three weeks.
- 46:00Rick Costa: it was like like that last week where I finally realized wait, I can do stuff Like I wasn't even thinking about it.
- 46:05Rick Costa: I was so messed up in the head and I was mad at myself.
- 46:08Rick Costa: You could have been doing anything.
- 46:12Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, you need time to decompress, like that's what happens to me too.
- 46:15Carmen Lezeth: When I like have a few days off, like for like two and a half days, and then you know three o'clock the day before I have to go back to work, I'm like, oh shit, I have time now.
- 46:25Carmen Lezeth: It's weird, but you're going to need a lot of that.
- 46:27Rick Costa: Yeah, yeah, I did want to.
- 46:29Rick Costa: I'm not talking about trying to talk about the Europe thing, but something Cynthia said triggered something that somebody had said more than once I've heard this when people said they went to Europe and they loved the food and they said they ate tons of food more than they eat here, but they lost weight facts.
- 46:44Rick Costa: Okay, I want to fact check that with y'all that's facts.
- 46:47Maurio: For us, it was because we ate all the time and I lost weight.
- 46:50Maurio: But we also, over in europe, we were walking a ton more.
- 46:54Maurio: We walked everywhere, like when we were in france.
- 46:59Maurio: We walked everywhere.
- 47:00Maurio: You, you took the metro and you walked.
- 47:01Maurio: You didn't really drive anywhere.
- 47:03Maurio: I think we drove more in Spain because we were nervous about pickpocketers.
- 47:09Maurio: Other than that, everywhere else in Europe we walked All over Switzerland.
- 47:14Maurio: We walked everywhere, except for Bern, right, because Bern there was a lot of hills and Levant was extremely hilly.
- 47:23Maurio: Our daughter was like, do you want to come see my space?
- 47:25Maurio: And she took us to the, to the bottom of her her street, and the street went up like this.
- 47:31Carmen Lezeth: We're like no, we see it from here because you were worried about pickpocketers and I'm like I know, because they're really, really I bad.
- 47:42Carmen Lezeth: I know, but it just cracks me up because I keep thinking like go ahead, try and pick my pocket, motherfucker, I'm a little bitch.
- 47:49Maurio: They are savage in Barcelona, it's just like they're savage.
- 47:52Maurio: I'm going to go to.
- 47:53Carmen Lezeth: Barcelona.
- 47:54Carmen Lezeth: I told Cynthia this Cynthia, did I tell you that, oh, I was trying to get you to go to Spain?
- 47:58Carmen Lezeth: I was trying, but you didn't realize why.
- 48:01Rick Costa: Isn't it Spain that always acts like they're better than?
- 48:04Carmen Lezeth: I'm sorry what.
- 48:05Rick Costa: Isn't it Spain that acts like they're better than?
- 48:07Carmen Lezeth: In the Latino community?
- 48:07Carmen Lezeth: Yes, but I think I'd fit in quite well oh yeah, but the food was amazing.
- 48:13Maurio: The food was amazing.
- 48:15Carmen Lezeth: I am thinking of moving and I told Vata and them too I am thinking of making another big change to another country.
- 48:22Carmen Lezeth: But I love my country, but I would love to have the last part of my life, the next 40 years, to be somewhere.
- 48:28Carmen Lezeth: Can you believe?
- 48:28Carmen Lezeth: I've been in LA 30 years.
- 48:29Carmen Lezeth: I can't believe it.
- 48:30Tony D.: Yeah, because you told us.
- 48:31Tony D.: That was true.
- 48:35Rick Costa: That was very profound.
- 48:39Carmen Lezeth: Do you guys see how much Tony and I hate each other?
- 48:41Carmen Lezeth: It's so obvious.
- 48:41Carmen Lezeth: I think you're so mean to me.
- 48:47Carmen Lezeth: You're making fun of me.
- 48:49Alma: They're like the divorced couple that can't leave each other alone.
- 48:52Alma: That's what it is.
- 48:53Alma: It's not the married couple.
- 48:54Alma: That's what it is.
- 48:55Alma: They're the divorced couple that can't leave each other alone, you nailed it.
- 49:00Rick Costa: That's what it is.
- 49:01Alma: It's almost all feelings there Like oh my gosh, that is so funny and wrong.
- 49:14Carmen Lezeth: If I would describe my relationship with Tony, it would be angst.
- 49:20Carmen Lezeth: There's definitely an angst.
- 49:21Carmen Lezeth: He frustrates me a lot.
- 49:23Carmen Lezeth: How long have y'all been friends?
- 49:24Carmen Lezeth: Well, we're not really friends, I knew that was you were going to say.
- 49:28Alma: How long have y'all been?
- 49:29Carmen Lezeth: friends.
- 49:29Carmen Lezeth: Let's just say how long we've known each other Three years has it been three years Online, not in person.
- 49:38Alma: We've never met in person.
- 49:40Carmen Lezeth: That would be dangerous.
- 49:41Carmen Lezeth: It's never going to happen, so it's okay.
- 49:43Carmen Lezeth: I've never met Rick in person either, but I'm friends with Rick Like I like Rick, I like Rick.

- 49:57Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, for sure, we're real, I'm real, I don't know, where it comes from I think Tony started being mean to me first.
- 50:05Carmen Lezeth: Take your time.
- 50:07Carmen Lezeth: He started being mean to me first, so then I reacted, and that's how it's always been.
- 50:11Carmen Lezeth: Do you know what I mean?
- 50:12Carmen Lezeth: And he doesn't respect who I am, he just makes fun of me.
- 50:17Tony D.: Right now you sound like Trump because you're lying.
- 50:19Alma: He knows what that means to push, he's like let me push this button again.
- 50:28Carmen Lezeth: No, actually I give him that one.
- 50:29Carmen Lezeth: I was kind of lying.
- 50:30Rick Costa: We had the greatest numbers.
- 50:33Carmen Lezeth: He showed me I don't understand how people have fallen for it.
- 50:39Tony D.: I don't know that's what I don't get.
- 50:40Tony D.: No, we're not going to circle back to it.
- 50:43Carmen Lezeth: No, no, no but it is kind of interesting because how you guys are making fun of the like saying and like imitating him, I'm like, how don't you see through that, right?
- 50:50Carmen Lezeth: Like, how do you not see the charlatan there?
- 50:52Carmen Lezeth: It's weird, right, it's weird, it's just fascinating.
- 50:55Carmen Lezeth: Okay, back to me and Tony.
- 50:56Carmen Lezeth: Let's talk about relationships.
- 50:57Carmen Lezeth: I have to go.
- 50:57Carmen Lezeth: Okay, here's what I think, tony, I know you do respect me and I can't say I respect you, but I want to I tolerate you.
- 51:12Tony D.: Don't you tolerate me next time?
- 51:13Tony D.: I tolerate you Wow.
- 51:16Maurio: No.
- 51:16Carmen Lezeth: I think what frustrates me about Tony he's heard me say this before is he has so much talent and he could have his own show and do all his own stuff and he doesn't do it.
- 51:25Carmen Lezeth: And you know that's true.
- 51:25Carmen Lezeth: I always tell you that it bothers me and when we were on HAPS, which is where we met, I used to get frustrated because I thought people used you a lot.
- 51:32Carmen Lezeth: And I'm not the first to say it.
- 51:34Carmen Lezeth: Me and.
- 51:35Carmen Lezeth: Ted other people have said it, tony, so I would confront him with some of this stuff that he was being used and abused.
- 51:44Carmen Lezeth: But I like Tony, I think he's cool, that's it.
- 51:50Alma: But there's nothing else.
- 51:51Carmen Lezeth: We just mess with each other because it's funny.
- 51:52Tony D.: It is funny.
- 51:53Carmen Lezeth: Hang on, it is fucking funny as hell.
- 51:55Tony D.: It really is.

- 53:29Maurio: Okay.

- 53:40Tony D.: As far as movies with gangs, I actually put the Warriors, Outsiders, Deuces Wild and then Gangs of New York in that order.
- 53:49Tony D.: It's all about New York, right?
- 53:52Tony D.: No, For me, the way they actually portrayed them without so many differences.
- 53:58Maurio: I was really giving you crap.
- 53:59Rick Costa: Dirty New York.
- 54:00Rick Costa: Dirty New York.
- 54:00Rick Costa: You need my part of Queens alone.

- 54:06Maurio: Dirty grimy, new York.
- 54:07Maurio: Wait a minute, you was coming from my city.
- 54:13Maurio: Remember you was coming from my city?
- 54:14Maurio: Yeah, I was told from the people who were from out there.
- 54:19Rick Costa: If they talk about their city like that, talking about my city, they ain't from my city.
- 54:21Maurio: My people don't talk about my city like that.
- 54:21Maurio: New York can talk about their city like that, talking about my city, they ain't from my city.
- 54:26Tony D.: New York can talk about New York.
- 54:27Tony D.: I know LA folks.
- 54:28Tony D.: They left on purpose Because y'all cost too much.
- 54:30Maurio: We are too high.
- 54:35Carmen Lezeth: New York is on the fucking list.
- 54:37Tony D.: I don't know if it's higher.
- 54:38Tony D.: Oh, absolutely New York.
- 54:40Maurio: Than LA.
- 54:41Maurio: Tony Sir is higher, but I've been oh, absolutely than la.
- 54:43Tony D.: Yeah, I don't know my god tony you know I'm gonna be quiet and let my spokesperson speak very good, because you was about to say so much no sir no, sir, I've never heard that la costs less than new york.
- 54:58Maurio: Honestly, absolutely I'd have to, absolutely.
- 55:02Carmen Lezeth: I have a one-bedroom by the beach and I pay $2,500 a month.
- 55:05Carmen Lezeth: I'm three blocks from the beach.
- 55:06Carmen Lezeth: $2,500 a month for a one-bedroom okay, in New York you can't get a studio for $2,500.
- 55:13Carmen Lezeth: You can't get a closet.
- 55:15Tony D.: There's a bathroom in the hallway.
- 55:16Tony D.: If you want the truth, when I was up there four or five years ago, I actually went by somebody's apartment.
- 55:21Tony D.: They were paying about $1,800 for a one-bedroom.
- 55:24Maurio: And the toilet was in the closet right.
- 55:25Tony D.: No no.
- 55:26Carmen Lezeth: Look, that was a very lucky question.
- 55:28Tony D.: I know what you're saying those are the uptown Manhattan prices.
- 55:30Tony D.: I know exactly what you're talking about, but it's not the whole city.
- 55:33Tony D.: I did know about places in Queens that was expensive.
- 55:37Tony D.: I agree with that, but I've never heard LA being less expensive than New York.
- 55:42Tony D.: That's mind-blowing to me.
- 55:43Tony D.: No, absolutely.
- 55:45Carmen Lezeth: No absolutely.
- 55:46Carmen Lezeth: I mean, don't get me wrong, they're probably right near you.
- 55:50Maurio: No, we have expensive spots, for sure.
- 55:52Carmen Lezeth: But you get more footage here than you would in New York.
- 55:55Cynthia: If you're talking Los Angeles and New York City right now, Boston is at the top of the list.
- 56:00Cynthia: Right now, Boston is at the top of the list.
- 56:01Cynthia: Right now, Boston is more expensive than LA.
- 56:04Maurio: See, yeah, see.
- 56:05Maurio: That's why I'm like where are you coming from?
- 56:08Maurio: Don't come from my city, my guy.
- 56:14Carmen Lezeth: You guys hear things, especially like Brian or whatever.
- 56:16Carmen Lezeth: You all hear things about LA and you think it's everywhere, right?
- 56:17Carmen Lezeth: No, just like you said about New York, it might be some areas.
- 56:20Carmen Lezeth: Whatever, there are 40 million people in all of California, 40 million people in California.
- 56:27Carmen Lezeth: That's like most of the United States lives in California.
- 56:30Carmen Lezeth: Do you know what I mean?
- 56:31Carmen Lezeth: There's a lot of people live here.
- 56:32Tony D.: Hang on, mr Maynard, I'm going to answer you in one second.
- 56:34Tony D.: Go ahead.
- 56:35Carmen Lezeth: No, you can answer right now.
- 56:36Carmen Lezeth: I don't know what that means.
- 56:38Carmen Lezeth: What do you think about Roosevelt Island?
- 56:39Tony D.: Roosevelt Island used to be where the rich people would stay and I've heard of the change.
- 56:43Tony D.: I don't know enough about it, but I heard about the change that's going on there.
- 56:45Tony D.: Let me get back to you on that.
- 56:46Tony D.: But when Roosevelt Island first came out it was a little upscale.
- 56:49Tony D.: As a matter of fact, the movie Nighthawks Sylvester Stallone and Billy Dee Williams, was kind of centered around that.
- 56:58Maurio: You stuck in the 80s.
- 56:59Maurio: Come on, bro, come on.
- 57:00Maurio: That was my youth.
- 57:04Tony D.: That was a good move.
- 57:04Tony D.: I'd remake that movie, the same way Denzel Reed did Pillow 123.
- 57:07Tony D.: I'd redo Nighthawks.
- 57:08Tony D.: Wow, I would redo Nighthawks.
- 57:11Tony D.: That used to be a rich area.
- 57:14Tony D.: I don't think it is anymore.
- 57:15Tony D.: I did hear something about it last year.
- 57:16Tony D.: Let me get back to you about that, because I know what he's talking about.
- 57:20Tony D.: Okay, come on, carmen.
- 57:23Carmen Lezeth: No, I don't know where Roosevelt Island is and I know.
- 57:25Tony D.: New York people.
- 57:26Tony D.: It's got its own little cable car.
- 57:28Tony D.: It was literally like a little island.
- 57:30Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, but where is it near Like, where is it Manhattan?
- 57:33Carmen Lezeth: Oh, I don't know.
- 57:34Carmen Lezeth: I mean, I don't know New York that well, I know, I know.
- 57:37Carmen Lezeth: But you say rich areas of New York, and I think Long Island, I think Rye, new York, I don't think New York City.
- 57:42Carmen Lezeth: I mean, yeah, new York City.
- 57:44Maurio: City, manhattan, upper West Side, all that.
- 57:47Carmen Lezeth: I don't, you know, I don't.
- 57:49Carmen Lezeth: I'm just saying everything you hear about LA through the little snippets you hear.
- 57:55Carmen Lezeth: You know that liberal town and there's homeless people everywhere.
- 57:57Carmen Lezeth: That's not my whole city.
- 58:02Carmen Lezeth: That's not the whole city, and why would we all stay here Like?
- 58:04Carmen Lezeth: This place is beautiful.
- 58:06Carmen Lezeth: I love Los Angeles with my heart and soul.
- 58:09Carmen Lezeth: Cynthia, you've been here right.
- 58:10Carmen Lezeth: I mean, you know why I love it here?
- 58:11Carmen Lezeth: And my, my biggest reason is because there's so many people of different cultures and different ethnicities and just different and and you could go to the beach, to the mountains, you could go, you know, all in one day.
- 58:25Maurio: Yep, yeah, skiing, whatever, all four seasons in one day, believe it or not, depending on depending on which direction you go in the state you can do it all it's just a beautiful place, um, and it's huge, so what?
- 58:36Maurio: big bear is big bears like two and a half hours from from the beach.
- 58:40Maurio: You can get from the beach to the mountains.
- 58:41Maurio: You can get from sand and sun to snow in two and a half hours.
- 58:45Maurio: That's just how fantastic the state is.
- 58:49Maurio: And drive through the desert to get there.
- 58:50Maurio: And drive through the desert to get there.

- 1:03:43Rick Costa: Well, the more shit that I have going on.
- 1:03:45Rick Costa: That's the truth.
- 1:03:47Alma: That's the truth.
- 1:03:50Carmen Lezeth: Exactly.
- 1:03:50Alma: Oh, go ahead, I'm sorry.
- 1:03:51Alma: The first thing I said is are they paying the bill in this house?
- 1:03:54Rick Costa: Yes, I love that expression.
- 1:03:56Rick Costa: Your opinion does not pay my bills.
- 1:03:58Maurio: That part.
- 1:03:59Maurio: What you think of me is none of my business.
- 1:04:03Carmen Lezeth: That part, I think Tony and Rick and we can agree that Tony's had some difficulties with people who A little bit, that's why, okay, so, alma, cynthia and Mario, what you're feeling from me, tony and Rick, is not like ooh yeah, carmen and Tony ain't really no, we're like the fallout from this video is going to make its way into people who misinterpret things and then badger Tony.
- 1:04:30Maurio: Oh, I'm sorry, I mean Look at me.
- 1:04:33Maurio: So not sorry, Sorry, friend Tony's gonna get him Fuck off.
- 1:04:39Alma: I'm like I'm not worried about him.
- 1:04:41Alma: He's going to be fine, he's a grown man.
- 1:04:45Cynthia: A grown man.
- 1:04:48Maurio: Well, you know what?
- 1:04:48Maurio: For all of those people who want to give Tony a hard time, run it up.
- 1:04:55Cynthia: Don't do this to him.
- 1:04:57Maurio: Plus there is a thing as a block button.
- 1:04:59Tony D.: I behave just enough to keep a job and to have a couple of friends.
- 1:05:04Cynthia: There you go.
- 1:05:06Maurio: Have you ever heard this song?
- 1:05:07Maurio: It's a little man, a little white man, singing a little folk song I got zero fucks to give.
- 1:05:12Maurio: No, it's a song, it's a real song.
- 1:05:16Maurio: The song is called I have Zero Fucks to Give.
- 1:05:22Carmen Lezeth: Rick, can you look it up and we can put it on?
- 1:05:23Carmen Lezeth: No, thank you, I'll to God.
- 1:05:24Carmen Lezeth: The song is called I have Zero Fucks to Give.
- 1:05:25Carmen Lezeth: Rick, can you look it up and we can put it on?
- 1:05:26Carmen Lezeth: No, thank you.
- 1:05:26Carmen Lezeth: All right, I'll do it, I'll see Okay what's it?
- 1:05:28Carmen Lezeth: Called.
- 1:05:29Maurio: Why would you ask Rick to do it?
- 1:05:30Maurio: Why would you ask Rick, of all people, to play it?
- 1:05:32Maurio: No, he's not going to play it.
- 1:05:33Maurio: No.
- 1:05:33Carmen Lezeth: I'm asking Rick because he knows how to do the put it up on the screen quicker than I do.
- 1:05:39Alma: We can ask Rick to pull up Less Than Highly Favored, but not that one.
- 1:05:42Cynthia: Wait, wait, wait.
- 1:05:44Rick Costa: Oh, I didn't tell Carmen this.
- 1:05:46Rick Costa: So my brother came over for the weekend when my mom turned 80 years old and his girlfriend said hey, rick, yeah, you know that lady you do the videos with on Thursday.
- 1:05:53Rick Costa: I was like, wait, she watches.
- 1:05:55Rick Costa: She's really funny.
- 1:05:56Rick Costa: I was like I didn't even know you watched.
- 1:05:57Rick Costa: You never told me who my brother's girlfriend.
- 1:06:01Rick Costa: Oh yeah, didn't she come on the show?
- 1:06:03Carmen Lezeth: one time.
- 1:06:04Rick Costa: No, no, I don't know that she was.
- 1:06:06Carmen Lezeth: Well, I really like her.
- 1:06:07Carmen Lezeth: She said I was funny.
- 1:06:08Rick Costa: She said you were really funny, not the hair flip.
- 1:06:10Maurio: Not the hair flip, the hair flip, the hair flip.
- 1:06:12Maurio: Not the hair flipping because it's like the hair flip.
- 1:06:16Carmen Lezeth: You have to.
- 1:06:17Carmen Lezeth: No, the reason why I was asking Rick is it was because he can.
- 1:06:21Carmen Lezeth: I don't know how to do this.
- 1:06:22Carmen Lezeth: I don't know how to show it.
- 1:06:23Carmen Lezeth: It's okay, it's really okay, I mean he's Christian, but People can look it up.
- 1:06:27Rick Costa: They know how to do it.
- 1:06:29Carmen Lezeth: They can look at it I know, but it would have been really funny because I don't know it.
- 1:06:31Carmen Lezeth: I would have heard it, but I'll look it up on my own.
- 1:06:33Carmen Lezeth: She said she's more than us.
- 1:06:34Maurio: She's like okay bye, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not.
- 1:06:36Maurio: Well then, I'm going to have to have a drink.
- 1:06:38Maurio: I ran out of water.
- 1:06:46Tony D.: Get the white cup.
- 1:06:48Cynthia: I got my white cup.
- 1:06:52Maurio: So here's a question for you guys.
- 1:06:53Maurio: Have you guys?
- 1:06:55Maurio: When was the last time somebody really pissed you off and how'd?
- 1:06:57Maurio: You deal with it.
- 1:06:58Tony D.: I was going to fight for my job.
- 1:07:04Carmen Lezeth: Oh, really I want to hear what happened, can you?
- 1:07:05Carmen Lezeth: Talk louder, Tony, so I can hear you in the kitchen.
- 1:07:06Maurio: Go get your drink.
- 1:07:07Tony D.: She can hear you in the kitchen.
- 1:07:08Tony D.: Speak loud loud.
- 1:07:10Tony D.: There's a lot of frustrations, agitations.
- 1:07:12Tony D.: It was early in the morning but I actually had.
- 1:07:15Tony D.: I was starting to work on an area and didn't realize somebody was close and I was using a blow blow on something.
- 1:07:22Tony D.: I got in one of the guy's faces.
- 1:07:23Tony D.: I didn't realize that he was actually pissed at me.
- 1:07:24Tony D.: I didn't know why he came out hollering at me.
- 1:07:28Tony D.: I looked at him like what are you talking about?
- 1:07:29Tony D.: And then it wasn't just a holler.
- 1:07:31Tony D.: You know the holler came with the stare.
- 1:07:32Tony D.: So when you get the stare you're going to stare back.
- 1:07:35Tony D.: Right, because every now and then I tell people I'm an aircraft mechanic, most of the people that I work with who are mechanics.
- 1:07:43Tony D.: The biggest part of our job is trying not to fight nobody, because you're going to face the frustration, you're going to face the agitation.
- 1:07:48Tony D.: It's a lot of pressure and a lot of standards to maintain and we do have an edge.
- 1:07:52Tony D.: We may not realize that gets hit.
- 1:07:53Tony D.: I've been on this job for 13 years.
- 1:07:57Tony D.: I've been in the field for almost 30 years.
- 1:07:59Tony D.: Guys will not, but there's a point and I watch this with a lot of mechanics.
- 1:08:03Tony D.: I tell people this all the time.
- 1:08:04Tony D.: You're going to keep it cool.
- 1:08:05Tony D.: You're going to be mature, you're going to be grown, but something's going to snap one day.
- 1:08:07Tony D.: That person doesn't even know where it comes from.
- 1:08:10Tony D.: I've seen this Black, white, old, young, rich, broke, no style.
- 1:08:13Tony D.: I'm serious.
- 1:08:13Tony D.: Someone just hits you just like, and you a minute, whatever.
- 1:08:18Tony D.: We all do it me and him resolved it within two minutes of it happening, which is nothing but maturity, and I'm grateful for it.
- 1:08:23Tony D.: I'll say that easily because on more than one occasion somebody has wanted to knock me out.
- 1:08:26Tony D.: I've wanted to knock them out and both of us probably would have done it and lost where we're at today.
- 1:08:30Tony D.: Now, that goes for most folks.
- 1:08:32Tony D.: I remember we were talking about that one episode about fights on the job.
- 1:08:38Tony D.: I'm like well, as a customer service rep dealing with customers, and everybody knows customers like to go somewhere and put their foot down the demand.
- 1:08:44Tony D.: You do something every now and then someone I don't know who the fuck you talking to you can get my ass, damn you your money, what you want, what you need, how hungry you are, where you try to stay, how you got here and where you going.
- 1:08:51Tony D.: Let's just be clear yes, you're coming to me crazy with all on demands.
- 1:08:56Tony D.: I'm gonna look at you like you're stupid.
- 1:08:57Tony D.: Until you get the back of the line, you can call everybody you want, because the manager and the supervisor are both busy.
- 1:09:00Tony D.: So you can either talk to me properly or keep on damn waiting.
- 1:09:03Tony D.: That's right, and I just deal with people and their money.
- 1:09:08Tony D.: Nobody plays around with their money.
- 1:09:09Tony D.: I didn't steal it.
- 1:09:10Tony D.: I didn't take it from you.
- 1:09:11Tony D.: I gave back what you're supposed to get back.
- 1:09:13Tony D.: If you don't understand it, look at the math.
- 1:09:14Tony D.: You did not rob you.
- 1:09:15Tony D.: I've seen people throw programs at folks.
- 1:09:16Tony D.: One dude liked to jump over the counter, one of my co-workers.
- 1:09:25Tony D.: Y'all see the videos on TikTok, instagram, facebook, youtube.
- 1:09:28Tony D.: People like to go crazy on these fast food folks.
- 1:09:30Tony D.: Y'all must have forgot these.
- 1:09:31Tony D.: Fast food folks are already on.
- 1:09:32Tony D.: I Don't Give a Fuck More.
- 1:09:33Tony D.: Right.
- 1:09:34Tony D.: When that big girl knocked that other girl over across that burger king holler, I remember that I was hollering and she was not no small woman.
- 1:09:41Tony D.: That was a big, healthy, hawaiian built woman.
- 1:09:44Tony D.: I said it.
- 1:09:45Carmen Lezeth: She was huge.
- 1:09:46Carmen Lezeth: I'm going to use that in the future.
- 1:09:47Carmen Lezeth: I'm a Hawaiian built woman.
- 1:09:48Tony D.: She was huge and she was moving like she was 30 pounds lighter.
- 1:09:51Maurio: I saw that.
- 1:09:52Maurio: I remember that.
- 1:09:54Tony D.: This is you got to be careful.
- 1:09:55Tony D.: How you talk to folks, how you deal with folks, how you come across to folks, how you deliver your message, matters for sure, absolutely speaking in high school, the first one of the first thing they taught us was encoding and decoding how your message comes across, how they interpret it, how they respond to it.
- 1:10:09Tony D.: That's how you have communication.
- 1:10:11Tony D.: Yep, people want to come up with the face, with the voice, with the attitude that we can understand your frustration.
- 1:10:16Tony D.: You're already given the leeway based on the training of the job, but you still need to keep your attitude in check.
- 1:10:19Tony D.: Control yourself when you're talking to me, because I'm just as grown as you are and I can give less of a fuck than you do.
- 1:10:23Maurio: I always tell my daughter think twice and speak once.
- 1:10:27Tony D.: I tell the youth all the time.
- 1:10:28Tony D.: My son asked me how does he control himself?
- 1:10:30Tony D.: He can't handle this.
- 1:10:30Tony D.: I said listen, this is the best way to think.
- 1:10:32Tony D.: I said think before you act.
- 1:10:36Maurio: It's the best way to stay out of jail.
- 1:10:38Maurio: That's what I told my daughter.
- 1:10:39Maurio: I said think twice, then speak once, because otherwise think about it twice, because the next time it comes out your mouth, you can't take it back, I'll be right back.
- 1:10:45Maurio: You can't pull back.
- 1:10:46Tony D.: Are you getting a drink too?
- 1:10:47Tony D.: Are you getting a drink too?
- 1:10:48Carmen Lezeth: Yes, I'm the only one drinking.
- 1:10:50Tony D.: No, you're not.
- 1:10:52Carmen Lezeth: Did you see the cup?
- 1:10:56Alma: I turned the camera around Coming up July 1st, I think my biggest frustration is when people come into your space and want to tell you how to do your job that you've been doing for 25 years.
- 1:11:07Tony D.: You want to face that, because that's a change in society.
- 1:11:09Tony D.: It's a change in the culture, change the environment and it's also the youth coming up, learning where you're at and showing you what you may have missed.
- 1:11:15Tony D.: That society is looking for from you.
- 1:11:18Tony D.: If you can remember that, some from you, if you can remember that, some of that you'll see.
- 1:11:21Tony D.: But every now and then you got to check them because once they're trying to change, they need to learn the basics in the first place.
- 1:11:24Alma: That's what you said Exactly, exactly Stop skipping steps, stop skipping steps.
- 1:11:30Tony D.: You got to remember.
- 1:11:30Tony D.: When they come to these jobs, they're always they're the fresh mind they're supposed to be the change they got to take out.
- 1:11:38Tony D.: Some of're not even ready for the change they're trying to put in place.
- 1:11:42Tony D.: They're not ready, they think they are.
- 1:11:43Tony D.: I watch it on my day.
- 1:11:44Tony D.: You guys come in, we're going to take you out.
- 1:11:46Tony D.: You don't know what you're doing.
- 1:11:47Tony D.: You made a mistake.
- 1:11:47Tony D.: Okay, go and get promoted over me.
- 1:11:49Tony D.: When they get their promotion, they get their responsibility and they're looking like they need help.
- 1:11:55Alma: I just smile at them, exactly, exactly, and I always tell I didn't have change.
- 1:12:10Rick Costa: How are you guys?
- 1:12:10Rick Costa: No, what does it say?
- 1:12:11Rick Costa: Wakanda forever?
- 1:12:11Rick Costa: Oh, okay, yeah, I had a friend that she said she quit her job and then they begged her to come back because they literally did replace her with three people.
- 1:12:15Rick Costa: Uh-huh, see, now you know my value.
- 1:12:18Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, and she said no, thank you, no, thank you someone called one of my clients called me and two of the other staff people paper pushers and we were in a meeting and he said so you guys are just like paper pushers, and it was just silence that's disrespectful it was so, but the minute he saw and felt what was happening, he was like no, no, no, no, that's not what I meant.
- 1:12:46Rick Costa: I could push a lot more than paper.
- 1:12:47Rick Costa: Try me.
- 1:12:48Carmen Lezeth: I was like, if you think all we are is paper pushers, that's fine, but you should probably be paying someone a lot less money for pushing paper around baby.
- 1:12:54Carmen Lezeth: So I was like you're spending a hundred grand right here between us.
- 1:12:59Maurio: That's all right, pay me.
- 1:13:01Cynthia: Call me whatever you want.
- 1:13:02Maurio: That's it.
- 1:13:03Maurio: I'll be your whatever you want.
- 1:13:05Alma: Is that something you're pushing?
- 1:13:07Maurio: Yeah, I'll be your pusher, baby.
- 1:13:09Carmen Lezeth: It was just funny, because he, I'm your mama.
- 1:13:10Carmen Lezeth: I'm your daddy.
- 1:13:12Carmen Lezeth: That's the one.
- 1:13:13Carmen Lezeth: Wait, what are we singing?
- 1:13:16Alma: I'm your pusher.
- 1:13:16Maurio: Maybe yeah.
- 1:13:17Maurio: I don't know what they're talking about.
- 1:13:21Maurio: I feel like me something on record just sitting there.
- 1:13:30Rick Costa: I saw a video of a girl, of a she does like funny videos about job related stuff and the supervisor came in and said hey, Veronica, I have good news for you you don't.
- 1:13:37Rick Costa: You don't have to be the interim manager anymore, Cause we found somebody else that's going to take over, and so now you can just go back to your regular job.
- 1:13:43Rick Costa: You don't have to do this anymore.
- 1:13:44Rick Costa: And we just wondered can you train her?
- 1:13:46Rick Costa: Though she was like, let me get this straight.
- 1:13:50Rick Costa: I've been doing this job for six months, just fine, and you're going to bring somebody else in from another company by the way, not even in Turtle and you want me to train?
- 1:14:04Maurio: No, she said no, no, nope, you never told me what you do on Friday nights.
- 1:14:06Maurio: Oh, that's right hey.
- 1:14:07Carmen Lezeth: Joy Hi, yeah, she had texted me earlier apologizing for not being able to come on, but it was fun.
- 1:14:11Carmen Lezeth: Friday night is date night.
- 1:14:15Maurio: Who we dating.
- 1:14:16Carmen Lezeth: Oh, we are not having that conversation.
- 1:14:18Maurio: All of us tonight, apparently.
- 1:14:19Carmen Lezeth: Not on live air, no.
- 1:14:23Alma: I'm intrigued.
- 1:14:26Maurio: I'm going to know now.
- 1:14:28Carmen Lezeth: Clearly it's not tonight because I'm here with you folks, but you know.
- 1:14:32Maurio: He must not be bringing the joy.
- 1:14:35Carmen Lezeth: Not tonight, he's not.
- 1:14:37Maurio: He's not all about the joy, then.
- 1:14:40Alma: He might already be in the room.
- 1:14:41Alma: That's why we can't come over, oh, we're good.
- 1:14:43Tony D.: That's why we stopped at an hour.
- 1:14:44Tony D.: It's already an hour and a half time to go, people.
- 1:14:46Maurio: He said that's all right, baby, I'll be the background of your foreground.
- 1:14:48Maurio: Oh my God.
- 1:14:53Cynthia: That's the part right there what.
- 1:14:57Carmen Lezeth: You're making fun of my part and my hair in front of my part and my hair.
- 1:15:01Tony D.: It's normally just all smooth Right now.
- 1:15:02Tony D.: You got a part in that.
- 1:15:02Tony D.: At least you got hair.
- 1:15:04Cynthia: Oh Okay.
- 1:15:06Carmen Lezeth: I'm going to send you a little Venmo right now.
- 1:15:08Carmen Lezeth: Baby, Hold on.
- 1:15:10Cynthia: That was good, honey, thank you.
- 1:15:12Cynthia: You don't get a tip, you don't get a tip for that one that was good.
- 1:15:16Rick Costa: By the way, if you haven't seen Carmen and Joy's Private Lounge very, very good video I highly recommend it, Not just saying it because it's very good.
- 1:15:22Rick Costa: You should watch it.
- 1:15:23Carmen Lezeth: It's very good.
- 1:15:23Carmen Lezeth: We want people to donate money to ukangiveorg.
- 1:15:28Carmen Lezeth: It's C-A-N-E.
- 1:15:29Carmen Lezeth: It's a great organization helping people all over the world really getting services that they need if they are blind.
- 1:15:37Carmen Lezeth: It's a great private lounge, so people should watch it.
- 1:15:43Carmen Lezeth: We want her to come back on the show when she can and she'll talk about it more and you know, if you guys have questions and stuff, it'll be great.
- 1:15:47Maurio: but yeah, she can't remember.
- 1:15:49Maurio: He made fun of my hair too.
- 1:15:51Carmen Lezeth: See Women.
- 1:15:55Carmen Lezeth: You proved it the other day.
- 1:15:57Carmen Lezeth: Cynthia, who was it we were on with?
- 1:15:59Carmen Lezeth: Oh, nazeem.
- 1:16:01Carmen Lezeth: We were on with Nazeem from Italy, alma, I think you were in the chat at the time and Tony immediately makes fun of me or any other woman in the room, but mostly me, because he feels comfortable.
- 1:16:12Carmen Lezeth: But then Nazeem does something and he's like Tony Joyce, when you saw her with curly hair.
- 1:16:24Tony D.: I didn't remember cracking.
- 1:16:25Maurio: See, she didn't forget.
- 1:16:26Maurio: You messed up.
- 1:16:27Maurio: Now what?
- 1:16:28Carmen Lezeth: kind of vodka do you guys prefer?
- 1:16:30Carmen Lezeth: I wanted Tito's, but I got Kettle One and I don't think I like it.
- 1:16:35Maurio: Tito's is nice, but Belvedere is best yeah, they didn't have Belvedere yeah, grey Goose is good.
- 1:16:42Maurio: Grey Goose is good Grey.
- 1:16:43Cynthia: Goose is good.
- 1:16:44Cynthia: Oh, I should have tried that.
- 1:16:46Tony D.: I drank Grey Goose straight in Hawaii back in 2010.
- 1:16:49Tony D.: I drank like a third of a bottle and that was not smart.
- 1:16:53Maurio: Yeah, because Grey Goose is trickery.
- 1:16:56Tony D.: Well, I did my Ascendant flight because I actually had a chance to fly F-16, and it's like a dream job.
- 1:17:01Tony D.: So I came back and they were like you.
- 1:17:03Tony D.: Okay, I got dressed, we was getting ready to go out there and I said, man, forget that.
- 1:17:05Tony D.: My mom was like yo, you crazy.
- 1:17:07Tony D.: I said I have just lived my dream.
- 1:17:09Tony D.: I could retire happily right now.
- 1:17:10Tony D.: About two hours later they had to bring me home.
- 1:17:12Tony D.: We riding on a highway.
- 1:17:19Tony D.: I cannot drink.
- 1:17:20Tony D.: I'm trying.
- 1:17:20Tony D.: I don't think I got a specific vodka.
- 1:17:23Tony D.: That's a preference, because I don't drink it straight.
- 1:17:24Tony D.: I normally got it mixed with something.
- 1:17:26Maurio: Tito's is good, but, like I said, but a Belvedere is best I'll get a Belvedere next time.
- 1:17:30Carmen Lezeth: They didn't have that, I was going to get that but here's not Friday night.
- 1:17:44Maurio: I told you to get back to work.
- 1:17:45Alma: She's not by herself, she's not by herself.
- 1:17:47Maurio: That's what I said.
- 1:17:48Maurio: I was trying not to say nothing.
- 1:17:50Tony D.: I was trying to say nothing.
- 1:17:52Alma: Listen to what she said.
- 1:17:53Alma: She said she does not drink by herself, so that means her boo is in the room.
- 1:17:57Maurio: We just can't drink by herself.
- 1:17:59Maurio: We said she's going to play background to her foreground.
- 1:18:02Rick Costa: That's what we said.
- 1:18:02Rick Costa: We just shut up on this thing, who that camera?
- 1:18:05Maurio: one in the corner.
- 1:18:06Maurio: Who behind that?
- 1:18:07Rick Costa: girl.
- 1:18:08Rick Costa: That's why she keeps flipping the camera.
- 1:18:09Rick Costa: She's like I'll be on the screen, you idiot.
- 1:18:12Tony D.: She wanted to go get a drink.
- 1:18:13Tony D.: She wanted to go make sure he was OK.
- 1:18:14Maurio: You all right, baby.
- 1:18:23Alma: That's why she wanted to see you behind the camera.
- 1:18:24Alma: We almost done.
- 1:18:24Maurio: We almost done she already got a little feel.
- 1:18:25Cynthia: I already got that she went and tipped over the rubber band and came back.
- 1:18:27Cynthia: That's what she did.
- 1:18:29Cynthia: I'm tired of talking to you, I got to go.
- 1:18:30Carmen Lezeth: Oh my God, I can even feel myself blushing a little bit, she's so blushing.
- 1:18:34Rick Costa: All about the embarrassment.
- 1:18:36Alma: That's what happens when you have grown married folks on here, I know, is the love still real.
- 1:18:42Cynthia: Yes, very, yeah, I mean it's like I ain't saying no, Not like I'm going to say no.
- 1:18:49Maurio: No, I mean, it's challenging.
- 1:18:50Maurio: For sure, marriage is challenging.
- 1:18:51Maurio: We've also been together for 30 years, so it's just like you know.
- 1:18:55Maurio: You got to remind yourself not to get in a rut.
- 1:18:57Maurio: Yeah, and you still surprise each other.
- 1:19:03Alma: You still date each other.
- 1:19:04Alma: We're definitely not the same people.
- 1:19:05Alma: When we met and when we got married, we both changed and evolved, and for the better some things.
- 1:19:13Alma: You are who you are.
- 1:19:13Alma: So, as married people, you just learn to love all the good parts along with the not-so-good parts.
- 1:19:20Alma: Yeah, what?
- 1:19:23Maurio: do you mean not so good parts?
- 1:19:26Rick Costa: Like leave your dirty drawer on the floor again.
- 1:19:30Alma: So but yeah, no, it's, you know it's still, it's still good, it's still good.
- 1:19:34Alma: Yeah, we've had our.
- 1:19:36Alma: We've had our difficult, difficult years.
- 1:19:39Alma: You know, with his illness and my illness, that it's just.
- 1:19:45Alma: The vows are real.
- 1:19:47Alma: Marriage definitely is not for the weak.
- 1:19:50Maurio: It's not for punks Not that anybody's a punk if it didn't work out, because sometimes stuff don't work out for other reasons, we tell young people who say, well, I'm thinking about getting married, are you sure?
- 1:20:02Maurio: Because it's not for punks.
- 1:20:03Maurio: You got to know what you're getting into.
- 1:20:06Alma: Yes.
- 1:20:09Maurio: And if you got the stomach for it go for it.
- 1:20:12Tony D.: The vow is real.
- 1:20:13Tony D.: I love how you said that.
- 1:20:15Alma: No, it's real, Because I mean it's like I tell them the wedding is just one day, Marriage is forever and marriage is work.
- 1:20:23Alma: It is work.
- 1:20:26Rick Costa: Every relationship is work, especially marriage.
- 1:20:28Maurio: Yes, Even friendships are work though.
- 1:20:30Maurio: Yeah, and then we are, but I think we are friends first.
- 1:20:37Alma: Yeah, you know he don't want to date me at first.
- 1:20:40Alma: Okay, we're not talking about this?
- 1:20:41Maurio: We're not talking about this.
- 1:20:42Maurio: Where's the popcorn?
- 1:20:47Maurio: Now, bitch, let me go get it because I'm not staying for this conversation.
- 1:20:52Rick Costa: Oh my God, that's so funny.
- 1:20:54Carmen Lezeth: No, I'm so glad because when Tony talks about his marriage and the end of it it's one of the few times when I hear someone talk about it.
- 1:21:03Carmen Lezeth: That's what I'm saying.
- 1:21:03Carmen Lezeth: I feel bad because I know it really did hurt you, right, tony?
- 1:21:11Tony D.: It gets to me.
- 1:21:11Tony D.: I'm a whole lot better than I was two years ago.
- 1:21:13Carmen Lezeth: For sure.
- 1:21:15Tony D.: Better than last year, but I'm more apathetic, which I know is very dangerous.
- 1:21:21Tony D.: This is why I kind of keep to myself I don't necessarily call myself stable or reliable to anybody else Just being integral about it.
- 1:21:30Tony D.: I'm not the dude that'll normally do what I used to do.
- 1:21:32Tony D.: I'm ready to come.
- 1:21:33Tony D.: Sure, let me know when you want me to pop up all that good stuff.
- 1:21:35Tony D.: I can't make it.
- 1:21:36Tony D.: Okay, cool, call me when you can Give it to me, and I and I have to realize how much other people were going through this before me.
- 1:21:41Tony D.: That's a lot of the reflection that I'm doing.
- 1:21:43Tony D.: I don't.
- 1:21:43Tony D.: I never saw or realized how deep this was to other people, no matter how much you've conversated with them, no matter how much you try to be there for them, no matter how much you try to let them know you're available no-transcript.
- 1:22:11Carmen Lezeth: This a long time ago we were talking about relationships.
- 1:22:13Carmen Lezeth: Is I, you still love the idea of being married and it hurts you that you're not, and I I kind of I just think that's a beautiful thing and I'm still sorry that your marriage ended because it had to or whatever, but I know it hurt you a lot when I, when I first met tony on the show, he did seem a little sadder than he does now.
- 1:22:35Cynthia: I feel like now you kind of come out of that shell, come out of that darkness that you're.
- 1:22:39Cynthia: You seem like a little lighter now than you did when I first met you.
- 1:22:42Tony D.: I am, and there are a couple of things I was actually talking to.
- 1:22:44Tony D.: I think my sister told me when I last saw her there's more than we can.
- 1:22:49Tony D.: She told me I started looking like myself again.
- 1:22:52Tony D.: So I don't know if it was the move, me just taking my time doing this, me just keeping to myself, whatever, but she was like I'm looking like myself again.
- 1:23:00Tony D.: I'm like, okay, that must be a change, because I don't realize it.
- 1:23:03Tony D.: All I do is go to work and come home, that's all.
- 1:23:05Tony D.: I don't go anywhere, I don't do anything because I know how much money that costs and people don't realize when are you going to come see me?
- 1:23:09Tony D.: You've got to afford to be able to come see you, because you never come see me.
- 1:23:25Alma: People always response.
- 1:23:26Alma: Well, like I always said, the phone works both ways.
- 1:23:27Alma: The phone does work both ways, but the traveling is normally no.
- 1:23:29Tony D.: yeah, I understand I could actually go out of town tomorrow, but tonight I was waiting to do this.
- 1:23:31Tony D.: Then I'm like, okay, let me see what happens.
- 1:23:33Tony D.: I can make a weekend trip with no problem, but it's not cheap.
- 1:23:35Tony D.: Right, it really isn't cheap.
- 1:23:37Tony D.: Gas isn't cheap.
- 1:23:37Tony D.: Hotels are like $200 a night, just starting on the Fridays.
- 1:23:40Tony D.: I've been looking for the past couple of years and that's crazy.
- 1:23:43Tony D.: I'm not paying $200 for that.
- 1:23:44Tony D.: I don't pay women $200 for a night or the five minutes.
- 1:23:47Tony D.: That's how.
- 1:23:47Cynthia: I'm.
- 1:23:51Maurio: I know what I said.
- 1:23:53Tony D.: I don't pay $200 a night for nothing.
- 1:23:57Rick Costa: You ain't dating that baby, call me whatever.
- 1:24:00Maurio: Quality over quantity.
- 1:24:04Tony D.: I'm just saying I'm not doing it.
- 1:24:06Tony D.: I did do it.
- 1:24:06Tony D.: I just went out of town for a week and I knew I was going to be there and the location was the safest.
- 1:24:10Tony D.: But if I ain't got to spend it, I'm not going to.
- 1:24:11Tony D.: Most people do the same thing.
- 1:24:13Tony D.: People got coupons, people follow discounts.
- 1:24:14Tony D.: I'm not cheap but I do spend a lot.
- 1:24:18Carmen Lezeth: Will you spend money on things that matter to you?
- 1:24:20Carmen Lezeth: Food, yeah, and liquor, no, I have.
- 1:24:23Carmen Lezeth: Your peach schnapps was very important to you.
- 1:24:25Tony D.: You realize I haven't had any crowns since the last time I told you about it.
- 1:24:31Carmen Lezeth: The peach schnapps.
- 1:24:31Carmen Lezeth: We call it peach schnapps, but what was it really?
- 1:24:34Tony D.: The blackberry.
- 1:24:36Carmen Lezeth: Right Crown Royal.
- 1:24:37Carmen Lezeth: I was calling it peach schnapps.
- 1:24:38Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, she was terrible.

- 1:24:44Tony D.: I mean, take some of my Highly caloric and great for energy.
- 1:24:47Rick Costa: I remember when I got divorced I was devastated because I just did not foresee it at all.
- 1:24:51Rick Costa: Like I know, people sometimes have a hard time.
- 1:24:53Rick Costa: I'm trying to tell y'all I really am this oblivious in a million years, and it took a long time for me to feel halfway normal again.
- 1:25:02Rick Costa: It was very hard because I saw a vision of my future, growing old together, kids and grandkids, and all of a sudden, in an instant, with a phone call at my mother's house, we're getting divorced.
- 1:25:12Rick Costa: What?
- 1:25:15Tony D.: Just like that.
- 1:25:15Tony D.: No, you're right.
- 1:25:16Tony D.: It bothered me when I got the phone call that it was official.
- 1:25:19Tony D.: I was literally at work and my lawyer hit me up and said everything's done.
- 1:25:22Tony D.: I checked the email.
- 1:25:22Tony D.: I said okay, appreciate it.
- 1:25:24Tony D.: It wasn't 30 seconds.
- 1:25:26Tony D.: My whole soul just dropped.
- 1:25:27Tony D.: Wow, literally.
- 1:25:27Tony D.: I'm just honest about it.
- 1:25:29Tony D.: I tell people I'll be straight up.

- 1:30:09Carmen Lezeth: Did you Alma for real?
- 1:30:10Carmen Lezeth: When I first laid eyes on him Wow.
- 1:30:15Maurio: It was love at first sight for her, for sure, for sure.
- 1:30:19Carmen Lezeth: I saw Chris Hemsworth in person.
- 1:30:21Carmen Lezeth: I say thing, but it didn't happen.
- 1:30:23Carmen Lezeth: I'm just saying I was going to marry you but it didn't happen, so I don't know what went wrong there.
- 1:30:29Rick Costa: Maybe because he's married already.
- 1:30:30Rick Costa: I don't care if he's already married?
- 1:30:31Carmen Lezeth: No, but I'm just saying I felt the same energy.
- 1:30:33Carmen Lezeth: He could be my son, bitches.
- 1:30:37Carmen Lezeth: Okay, I don't know, I'd be a really young mother, but he could be my son.
- 1:30:42Carmen Lezeth: I think he's like 40, right?
- 1:30:44Carmen Lezeth: No, he's a little older than that hey Google.
- 1:30:49Cynthia: We could teach him a few things right, he's 40.
- 1:30:53Maurio: Oh, wow, that's how he's older than that.
- 1:30:55Cynthia: Me too.
- 1:30:56Maurio: Oh Lord, that boy is fine.
- 1:30:58Maurio: But yeah, so that's how we started.
- 1:31:01Maurio: Dating was like that.
- 1:31:04Maurio: But she spoke that into fruition.
- 1:31:06Maurio: She said when I saw him.
- 1:31:07Maurio: She said when he walked in the door she said who is that?
- 1:31:09Maurio: Because I'm going to marry him.
- 1:31:10Maurio: She didn't even know my name.
- 1:31:12Carmen Lezeth: I love that.
- 1:31:13Alma: I'm jealous and here we are Not just her fortitude and her confidence and doing her thing and wrapping you up, no, and even then I wasn't on my walk with God like I am now, but knowing what I know now that I didn't know then, that was the Holy Spirit.
- 1:31:33Carmen Lezeth: Joy just said that's okay, I've got a younger man, Okay.
- 1:31:36Tony D.: Thank you Now, joy, I did tease you about that.
- 1:31:39Tony D.: What you gonna tease Joy?
- 1:31:41Tony D.: What you got to tease Joy, I'll tease you about that.
- 1:31:43Tony D.: What you gonna tease Joy?
- 1:31:43Tony D.: What you got to tease Joy, I'll tease Joy about that.
- 1:31:44Tony D.: That was a couple years ago.
- 1:31:45Tony D.: We had a good conversation about all this.
- 1:31:46Tony D.: Go ahead, alma.
- 1:31:47Carmen Lezeth: I cut Alma off, it's okay Go ahead.
- 1:31:50Alma: So, yeah, you know, like I was saying not knowing what I know, now you know that was definitely God speaking to me and you know, allowing me to know who that was, that that was my partner.
- 1:32:01Alma: So you know, and even then just being obedient and following, but not even really realizing that I was being, you know, obedient to that voice, and that's where we are.
- 1:32:13Carmen Lezeth: I was trying to be obedient to my voice, with Chris Hemsworth.
- 1:32:16Carmen Lezeth: I don't know what I'm talking about.
- 1:32:18Alma: There's got to be some action behind that.
- 1:32:20Alma: You got to make some moves.
- 1:32:22Carmen Lezeth: I don't think it was the Lord speaking to me.
- 1:32:24Carmen Lezeth: It was a different voice.
- 1:32:25Carmen Lezeth: It was the Lord.
- 1:32:29Maurio: Not the.
- 1:32:29Cynthia: Lord, it was the.
- 1:32:30Maurio: Lord.
- 1:32:30Maurio: The Lord speaks up here.
- 1:32:33Maurio: He was speaking for something a little bit lower.
- 1:32:44Carmen Lezeth: Rick, will you ever get married again?
- 1:32:46Rick Costa: if the right person comes along and I fall head over heels like a school boy in love, kind of thing, yeah, but I'm not looking.
- 1:32:53Rick Costa: So what would?
- 1:32:56Maurio: make you fall in love.
- 1:32:57Maurio: What are the qualifications?
- 1:32:59Rick Costa: like I said, I don't know.
- 1:33:01Rick Costa: Yes, you do, don't tell a lie'm not looking.
- 1:33:02Rick Costa: Yes, you do.
- 1:33:02Rick Costa: Yes, you do, don't tell a lie.
- 1:33:03Maurio: Everybody's got a little something something.
- 1:33:06Maurio: You got a little something something.
- 1:33:07Maurio: Am I telling the truth, tony?
- 1:33:09Maurio: Even Tony know that.
- 1:33:09Maurio: Look, tony, no.
- 1:33:17Tony D.: I said somebody who's kind of, somebody who has been through a divorce, you got to realize flags.
- 1:33:21Tony D.: I told him at the beginning of the show.
- 1:33:22Tony D.: I said I won't stop ignoring red flags, which is very limiting to me.
- 1:33:26Tony D.: I'm always giving people the benefit of the doubt, but I'm very close to being a one and done person, which is who I have to fight, because I have an attitude and a temper that's not good for anybody's relationship and the last thing you want to do is be that person with whoever you're trying to spend your life with and live with.
- 1:33:39Tony D.: So when people meet you and they see that, you can cut it off in a minute.
- 1:33:42Tony D.: No, it will last long.
- 1:33:43Tony D.: If you want it done, we've done an hour.
- 1:33:46Tony D.: I'm out of here, I'll drive, I'll get my Uber, whatever, whatever.
- 1:33:48Tony D.: But if you want to endure with somebody, that's the part of you that has to rebuild after divorce or a widowing.
- 1:33:52Tony D.: If you will no disrespect to anybody who may have gone through it A part of serious.
- 1:34:04Tony D.: There are beautiful women that I know.
- 1:34:05Tony D.: There are people out there that may be interested, but I can't reciprocate that same energy and I will say energy on purpose, because there's an enthusiasm with the relationship.
- 1:34:07Tony D.: There's that optimism for an endurance.
- 1:34:10Tony D.: I don't have that shit right now.
- 1:34:11Tony D.: I just don't.
- 1:34:13Tony D.: We can meet up for dinner, we can go to a movie, we can hang out.
- 1:34:16Tony D.: We can plan a weekend, not a problem.
- 1:34:17Tony D.: What about afterwards?
- 1:34:18Carmen Lezeth: I don't give a shit, I just don't how long have you both been divorced?
- 1:34:26Tony D.: Right, it's been a year and a half technically for me, but I've been separated almost four, so it's been just me, but I've got a child, okay wait, wait, wait.
- 1:34:32Carmen Lezeth: But when you were separated, did you think you might work it out?
- 1:34:35Carmen Lezeth: Were you hoping that you would fix it?
- 1:34:41Tony D.: For about the first year.
- 1:34:43Tony D.: No for about the first year honestly, it was about the first six months I was hoping, thinking, even though I knew better, and I'm just honest with how much I put up myself into this.
- 1:35:02Tony D.: Once I said I'd do everything was when I was out of the military.
- 1:35:05Tony D.: I had no reason to leave the state without her, so everything was there.
- 1:35:09Tony D.: So, to lose, and for you know what?
- 1:35:11Tony D.: Yeah, let me go ahead and do this.
- 1:35:13Tony D.: If you focus yourself onto anything and you lose it, if it doesn't hurt you, you're already as apathetic as I'm trying to fight.
- 1:35:18Carmen Lezeth: I have no idea what you just said.
- 1:35:19Carmen Lezeth: I have no idea what you just said.
- 1:35:20Carmen Lezeth: You don't.
- 1:35:20Carmen Lezeth: You said it with force, but I have no idea what you just said.
- 1:35:22Carmen Lezeth: Just hear me.
- 1:35:22Carmen Lezeth: Okay, say it again.
- 1:35:23Tony D.: Anybody who has a focus or a drive in a specific direction.
- 1:35:26Tony D.: To lose what you have tried to build, establish or go for will hurt.
- 1:35:30Tony D.: And if it doesn't hurt, you are already more apathetic than I am, because I give a damn about what I do.
- 1:35:38Carmen Lezeth: I give a damn about what I establish.
- 1:35:40Carmen Lezeth: No, noa, I'm just being honest.
- 1:35:41Carmen Lezeth: I don't understand what you're saying.
- 1:35:42Carmen Lezeth: The first part I get right.
- 1:35:44Carmen Lezeth: Like you had a drive, you were excited about your marriage.
- 1:35:47Carmen Lezeth: You wanted to make it work, no matter what happened.
- 1:35:49Carmen Lezeth: You were willing to go the distance because that is marriage and you were in it for the long haul.
- 1:35:53Carmen Lezeth: But it's the second part of what you say that I don't understand.
- 1:35:55Carmen Lezeth: And if you apathetic, that's the part I don't get.
- 1:36:01Maurio: I think I understand what he's saying.
- 1:36:03Maurio: Basically, he's saying if you don't care after something has already happened, if you don't care anymore, then you've been checked out a long time ago.
- 1:36:12Maurio: Is that what you're trying to say?
- 1:36:14Tony D.: You don't care about losing what you built.
- 1:36:15Tony D.: If I put a focus into something that I lose, it matters to me.
- 1:36:19Tony D.: Some people they'll lose, just move on to something else into something that'll lose it.
- 1:36:22Carmen Lezeth: It matters to me Some people they'll lose, just move on to something else You're talking specifically about your ex-wife right now, right About any relationship or commitment, but let's not make it a big thing.
- 1:36:28Carmen Lezeth: Like you are talking about your personal experience.
- 1:36:29Tony D.: I'm just saying, and I say that in my marriage more than once, but any commitment I'll try to go into and I hate to move forward.
- 1:36:36Carmen Lezeth: Just from all the conversations we've had about this, whatever you were really in love with your wife, I think that hurts you, that she wanted out.
- 1:36:46Tony D.: It hurts that it didn't work.
- 1:36:47Maurio: I think that's rare.
- 1:36:49Maurio: We didn't answer the question how long have you been in a divorce?
- 1:36:54Rick Costa: 2003.
- 1:36:57Maurio: Okay, so you've been out of that marriage for a while, so yeah, so if I put you on Tinder tomorrow, I'll put you on Apple.
- 1:37:06Maurio: I can get you somebody.
- 1:37:08Maurio: Is that what you're saying?
- 1:37:09Maurio: I got the green light to put you on.
- 1:37:10Rick Costa: Tinder.
- 1:37:11Rick Costa: Is that what we're saying?
- 1:37:11Rick Costa: You can do whatever you want, but guess what?
- 1:37:13Rick Costa: I'm going to do whatever I want, which is going to be nothing.
- 1:37:18Carmen Lezeth: Okay, here's my feeling about Rick.
- 1:37:20Rick Costa: I could be wrong, but it's not that opportunities have not come and gone, not that I've had like I don't want to put her on front street, like you said earlier, but I had a friend that was like a best friend.
- 1:37:31Rick Costa: but then the best friend for her turned into more, but not for me.
- 1:37:35Rick Costa: And then, when she finally admitted it, it destroyed the friendship, which was very bad.
- 1:37:39Rick Costa: She's like well, how could you not know?
- 1:37:40Rick Costa: Which was very bad.
- 1:37:41Rick Costa: She's like well, how could you not know?
- 1:37:42Rick Costa: I was like I didn't know Again, oblivious Rick.
- 1:37:43Carmen Lezeth: Was this the McDonald's woman, the one with the fries, or whatever?
- 1:37:45Carmen Lezeth: Remember you told me that story about somebody you didn't know they were flirting with you or interested in you because they kept being like, let's share the McDonald's or whatever.
- 1:37:53Carmen Lezeth: Is that the same person?
- 1:37:54Rick Costa: Oh, the one that she would wrap the burger for me.
- 1:37:58Carmen Lezeth: I, she was into.
- 1:37:59Maurio: I was like she's just being nice.
- 1:38:01Maurio: Was she trying to share her milkshake with you?
- 1:38:03Alma: I think it must be a guy thing, because you were the same way.
- 1:38:09Maurio: No, I did have a couple of.
- 1:38:12Alma: This is my really good friend and I pulled him to the side and I was like she likes you.
- 1:38:18Alma: No she doesn't, that's just my good friend.
- 1:38:21Alma: No, she likes you.
- 1:38:24Carmen Lezeth: No, that's just my good friend.
- 1:38:25Carmen Lezeth: No, she likes you.
- 1:38:25Carmen Lezeth: No, that's just my good.
- 1:38:26Carmen Lezeth: I said okay, are you scared?
- 1:38:27Alma: and jealous of my love for mario.
- 1:38:28Alma: Oh, not at all.
- 1:38:29Alma: Come please no, girl.
- 1:38:31Maurio: No, we had somebody.
- 1:38:33Maurio: It was, we were.
- 1:38:34Maurio: I was friends with this person and she had romantic feelings for me.
- 1:38:38Alma: But I'm gonna keep saying no and I and they were already friends when I met him.
- 1:38:41Alma: And so I came into it and I was like, okay, you know, and I'm seeing, of course, fresh eyes, I'm new, you know, with him.
- 1:38:48Alma: And so I pulled him to the side and I'm like, have you guys dated?
- 1:38:51Alma: And he was like no.
- 1:38:53Carmen Lezeth: I was like well, she's got feelings and he was like no, she doesn't.
- 1:39:00Maurio: I'm like, yeah, she does, she's like no, no, no, no, look real truth.
- 1:39:04Maurio: She said did you get that?
- 1:39:04Maurio: And I'm like nah I didn't get that.
- 1:39:06Maurio: She asked me what did you say?
- 1:39:08Cynthia: I said guys tend not to notice.
- 1:39:12Carmen Lezeth: Yeah that's a guy thing for sure.
- 1:39:13Carmen Lezeth: We can see it right away.
- 1:39:13Carmen Lezeth: We can tell you it's a guy thing?
- 1:39:14Carmen Lezeth: Definitely, because I mean, yeah, they're moved, they're ruled by the like, somebody liking them, and so it's like oblivious, but it's not no.
- 1:39:24Maurio: But the light came on when Amina got engaged and she was pissed off, not happy.
- 1:39:30Alma: Not all congratulations.
- 1:39:32Maurio: She was pissed and then she was like I'm your best friend, you fuck me, spend as much time with me as you are her, I'm like hold up.
- 1:39:38Maurio: No, no, okay, yeah, I know I'm like you bug it.
- 1:39:41Maurio: And then when she came to the wedding, she was like crying profusely.
- 1:39:45Maurio: It was a scene, it was a.
- 1:39:47Maurio: Tyler.
- 1:39:48Alma: Perry moment.
- 1:39:49Maurio: It was a Tyler Perry moment.
- 1:39:51Carmen Lezeth: But Alma, you said it was okay for her to come.
- 1:39:53Carmen Lezeth: You agreed to that, yeah.
- 1:39:56Maurio: No, she really didn't agree to that.
- 1:39:57Maurio: I was like, nah, she coming.
- 1:40:00Cynthia: All those faces.
- 1:40:01Cynthia: Come on, she can act the way she wants to.
- 1:40:04Rick Costa: I would have been scared when the part came up.
- 1:40:06Rick Costa: Does anybody here have any reason why these two couples should not be together?
- 1:40:09Maurio: You should watch her.
- 1:40:10Maurio: Yeah, she did.
- 1:40:10Maurio: She told you to watch her.
- 1:40:11Alma: I should watch her.
- 1:40:12Alma: And she makes any moves, tackle her, she did.
- 1:40:16Carmen Lezeth: What about you and Juan?
- 1:40:17Carmen Lezeth: I know there are stories with Juan Wong, him and his chastisious ways, it's actually funny.
- 1:40:22Cynthia: It's funny how me and Wong met.
- 1:40:23Cynthia: We both actually worked at the airport and the day that I met him he was sitting in the car with his kid's mother because they had broken up, but they were arguing about the kids and I was walking across the terminal and the friend that I was with knew him.
- 1:40:37Cynthia: So she's like oh, this is my friend Juan, and he's flirting with me right in front of his kid's mother and I was just like this guy got some nerve and he was just like flirting with me.
- 1:40:50Cynthia: And the next day I saw him back at work and he asked me out for lunch and I was just like, whatever, okay, fine.
- 1:40:55Cynthia: And you know, I was questioning him about the baby mama and he was just like, no, we're broken up.
- 1:40:58Cynthia: And of no, we're broken up.
- 1:40:59Cynthia: Of course I wasn't believing him, but you got sucked in by his machismo.
- 1:41:04Cynthia: So I knew his sister from high school and I was asking her she's like oh, no, no, they're totally separated.
- 1:41:10Cynthia: You know this and that, whatever.
- 1:41:12Cynthia: And all of a sudden, yeah, we just started talking and started dating, like the day after my birthday, but he wouldn't cheat on anybody.
- 1:41:21Carmen Lezeth: He's like a big old teddy bear.
- 1:41:22Carmen Lezeth: He's like, yeah, he's a cool guy.
- 1:41:23Carmen Lezeth: He's not there now.
- 1:41:24Carmen Lezeth: He was so bugging earlier today, but he doesn't.
- 1:41:26Carmen Lezeth: He came in and went back out, went back outside.
- 1:41:29Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, he's all up in it.
- 1:41:31Carmen Lezeth: We're in the green room, but the minute we go live.
- 1:41:33Carmen Lezeth: He's like out the door.
- 1:41:35Carmen Lezeth: I love him.
- 1:41:35Carmen Lezeth: Um.
- 1:41:36Carmen Lezeth: So, tony and rick, you guys don't think you will look at I, I'll just answer before I ask the question.
- 1:41:41Carmen Lezeth: But like I didn't have a bad divorce and I'm still y'all know, I'm still friends with my ex and his daughter is my godchild, so and you know what I mean, and anyway, her mother is my best friend.
- 1:41:51Carmen Lezeth: It's like it's just a whole different ballgame.
- 1:41:53Carmen Lezeth: I lucked out on that, but I think it's because we didn't have children also, you know what I mean.
- 1:41:57Carmen Lezeth: We didn't have decision to like break up and it was easy, okay.
- 1:42:01Carmen Lezeth: So, with that said, rick and tony, specifically, when do you guys think you will start dating again, or will you?
- 1:42:07Alma: or you're just not in that space right now, tony tony already answered that part, so did I he said he'll hang out he'll meet with people, he He'll eat, he'll go have a weekend, but he doesn't make any long-term plans.
- 1:42:25Alma: He's there to have a nice time and show a good time, but beyond that he's not in for a relationship.
- 1:42:31Alma: Wow, I missed all of that, tony.
- 1:42:32Carmen Lezeth: I'm so sorry, alma, listen.
- 1:42:34Maurio: Did I paraphrase that correctly?
- 1:42:38Cynthia: She caught me tonight and you've been trying to figure.
- 1:42:40Cynthia: I know.
- 1:42:41Tony D.: I'm so sorry, I apologize.
- 1:42:43Tony D.: She heard everything I said verbatim.

- 1:42:54Tony D.: I don't understand.
- 1:42:55Tony D.: I don't know what you said.
- 1:42:56Tony D.: I almost said he said he said he's been divorced since 2003.
- 1:43:02Alma: Rick.
- 1:43:02Alma: I wonder, rick, are you hesitant today because of your situation, your caregiving?
- 1:43:08Rick Costa: Well, now that's a whole thing now, but that doesn't mean before I could have, but now I just there's no way.
- 1:43:13Rick Costa: There's no way now, but you know, after I mean it's not impossible.
- 1:43:17Alma: It would just take somebody who is understanding of your circumstances.
- 1:43:21Rick Costa: And we have to hang out here all the time.
- 1:43:24Maurio: Or you might have a cute nurse come in and she's like hey, you want to pay, doctor.
- 1:43:27Maurio: It's an excuse.
- 1:43:27Maurio: It's definitely an excuse.
- 1:43:31Rick Costa: And I haven't been with nobody, so if that don't answer your question, I don't know.
- 1:43:34Rick Costa: Yeah, I got you, you ready, just don't care.
- 1:43:39Maurio: See, he just don't care.
- 1:43:41Alma: He don't care about that.
- 1:43:43Maurio: I'm telling you, liz, I'm a wizard matchmaking.
- 1:43:47Maurio: I've been successful, I'm pretty successful yeah well, for my friends it's free 99 free 99 free discount it's free 99, but no, I've been pretty good, yeah, but you know what I have to?
- 1:44:05Maurio: I have a.
- 1:44:05Maurio: Now I have, I'm gonna tell you I have the gift of discernment when it comes to people in couples.
- 1:44:09Maurio: I can tell you if it's gonna work and I can tell you if it's not gonna work.
- 1:44:12Maurio: I've seen, uh, young people get together.
- 1:44:15Maurio: I've had nieces and nephews bring people to me and I'm like nope, that ain't it, and they'll not listen to me.
- 1:44:22Maurio: And then a year later they're split up or they're like Theo, mario, you were so right.
- 1:44:27Maurio: I don't know what I was thinking.
- 1:44:29Maurio: I should have listened.
- 1:44:29Maurio: And if I say this is the person you need to be with, it works out every single time.
- 1:44:35Maurio: I just had a gift.
- 1:44:37Maurio: I mean, I can tell you yes or no.
- 1:44:38Maurio: I can't tell you what works.
- 1:44:41Maurio: I I can't tell you what works.
- 1:44:41Maurio: I can tell you why it works.
- 1:44:42Maurio: But if I know my friend or my family member and I know what works for them, and if that other person's not bringing what I see is needed, I can see right away.
- 1:44:53Carmen Lezeth: I'm just not interested in anything so permanent.
- 1:44:58Maurio: Well, that's why you don't leave when the show is over.
- 1:45:01Cynthia: What.
- 1:45:02Maurio: The dude behind the door, behind you he's going to leave?
- 1:45:06Cynthia: Oh, no it kind of sounds like Carmen's looking for the same thing Tony is.
- 1:45:09Maurio: Right.
- 1:45:09Cynthia: Yes, I'm not looking for it, I already have it.
- 1:45:11Carmen Lezeth: I have friends with benefits.
- 1:45:12Rick Costa: Excuse me.
- 1:45:13Carmen Lezeth: There you go.
- 1:45:14Carmen Lezeth: I'm just saying, but a lot of people can't do friends with benefits.
- 1:45:18Carmen Lezeth: People people can't do it.
- 1:45:28Carmen Lezeth: There are very few people who can actually handle that.
- 1:45:30Carmen Lezeth: Somebody always falls for somebody.
- 1:45:31Alma: That's easy, so so is it?
- 1:45:32Alma: So then, you're dating, but not dating.
- 1:45:34Alma: Are we talking about me?
- 1:45:36Alma: Yes, so friends with benefits.
- 1:45:38Alma: So you're friends with benefits, okay.
- 1:45:41Alma: Okay, I understand the benefits part, but my question is do you have several friends with benefits?
- 1:45:48Cynthia: That's too much, can you all have?
- 1:45:51Alma: different friends with benefits.
- 1:45:53Alma: Is that permitted?
- 1:45:53Alma: Just you and I are friends with benefits.
- 1:45:55Alma: That's a good point.
- 1:45:58Alma: I just have questions.
- 1:46:00Carmen Lezeth: I'm going to answer them.
- 1:46:01Carmen Lezeth: I have no problem answering them.
- 1:46:02Carmen Lezeth: In the past I've had, I've had a few friends, three people who are male, who don't know each other.
- 1:46:17Carmen Lezeth: Wow, what do you mean?
- 1:46:19Alma: Wow, it wasn't that much.
- 1:46:22Carmen Lezeth: It's not about just the sex part.
- 1:46:24Carmen Lezeth: I have who are male.
- 1:46:26Carmen Lezeth: I go out and have dinner, we go to the movies, we hang out with each other at the beach, whatever it is, we go hiking right, and then sometimes we may have sex and then the next day they're gone.
- 1:46:37Carmen Lezeth: It's not like it's just, it's just a.
- 1:46:40Carmen Lezeth: It's a bad, it's an easy.
- 1:46:41Carmen Lezeth: It's just a, it's just easy.
- 1:46:42Carmen Lezeth: It's just easy.
- 1:46:42Carmen Lezeth: It's fun and easy, whatever.
- 1:46:44Maurio: So at one point, it's like an extracurricular activity.
- 1:46:47Carmen Lezeth: It's just like going to dinner, it's not.
- 1:46:51Cynthia: I mean, why is it so surprising?
- 1:46:52Cynthia: Look, wait, there are rules.
- 1:46:55Carmen Lezeth: I'll tell you the rules.
- 1:46:57Alma: Listen, there's nothing wrong with that You're going to choke your kids.
- 1:47:00Carmen Lezeth: Mutual mutual consent to adults yeah, and here, when somebody's dating somebody else, we don't.
- 1:47:07Carmen Lezeth: Don't make me, cynthia, stop it.
- 1:47:08Carmen Lezeth: I think, she knows who two of them are.
- 1:47:12Carmen Lezeth: I don't know.
- 1:47:13Carmen Lezeth: I don't.
- 1:47:13Carmen Lezeth: I think and here's the thing it's just part of our relationship, but there are rules.
- 1:47:21Carmen Lezeth: If somebody's dating somebody, we don't do that.
- 1:47:23Carmen Lezeth: And I lost one really good friend because he got married and then thought we could and I was like absolutely no you know what I mean, like so, and we're not friends anymore, which bums me out, because we were really.
- 1:47:35Maurio: But you know what cheers to you if you still calling after you got married.
- 1:47:37Carmen Lezeth: Cheers to you, hey, baby, you know what I'm saying but I'm just saying so, um, I don't you have, but I'm just saying so, um, I don't, I'm sorry.
- 1:47:45Carmen Lezeth: Well, yeah, I understand.
- 1:47:51Carmen Lezeth: I mean, I get it.
- 1:47:51Carmen Lezeth: I had one friend who ended up having feelings for me and telling me that he wanted more, which you would think it'd be the girl thing.
- 1:47:57Carmen Lezeth: I don't know the stereotypical story of it and I was like I don't, I don't like you that way.
- 1:48:01Carmen Lezeth: It's just weird to say right, because we have these intimate moments but, we were just having sex.
- 1:48:07Carmen Lezeth: It wasn't, it wasn't in love with him.
- 1:48:09Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean.
- 1:48:10Carmen Lezeth: So that ended too.
- 1:48:11Carmen Lezeth: So it's a hard thing.
- 1:48:12Carmen Lezeth: There are very few people who can handle it.
- 1:48:14Carmen Lezeth: And um, it doesn't mean I don't want to be in a actual committed relationship.
- 1:48:19Carmen Lezeth: I do, but I want a certain specific person.
- 1:48:24Alma: I understand, I get it.
- 1:48:26Alma: I just had questions.
- 1:48:30Carmen Lezeth: I don't think.
- 1:48:30Carmen Lezeth: Look, a lot of people think they can do it and a lot of my friends have asked me because they know Cynthia, why are you laughing so hard?
- 1:48:35Cynthia: I'm sorry, it's Mario, because he's suffering his balls with a pop.
- 1:48:40Tony D.: Hey, mario, you ever heard of Conscious Daughters?
- 1:48:42Tony D.: It's on gamers.
- 1:48:44Tony D.: I'm not mad at you for listening, I'm not either.
- 1:48:48Maurio: I'm not mad at you.
- 1:48:49Maurio: You'll be very entertaining the conversation right here.
- 1:48:51Carmen Lezeth: Honestly, nicely right.
- 1:48:52Carmen Lezeth: They're just fucking around and hurting people.
- 1:48:54Carmen Lezeth: I have you look at.
- 1:48:56Carmen Lezeth: I think sex is a great thing.
- 1:48:57Carmen Lezeth: I think sex is part of our natural way of being and if I can enjoy that with a friend and not have to worry about the complications because when I Tony, what is wrong?
- 1:49:07Carmen Lezeth: Seriously, are you guys this really?
- 1:49:09Alma: weird.
- 1:49:09Alma: He said preach.
- 1:49:11Alma: Oh, he said preach.
- 1:49:13Carmen Lezeth: I can't hear you.
- 1:49:14Carmen Lezeth: I can't hear you.
- 1:49:16Carmen Lezeth: I got something in my.
- 1:49:16Carmen Lezeth: I don't know, something is.
- 1:49:18Rick Costa: Because that guy in the background is too loud.
- 1:49:21Maurio: Tell him to be quiet back there.
- 1:49:22Cynthia: Shut up, because that guy in the background is too loud.
- 1:49:23Cynthia: Tell him to be quiet.
- 1:49:23Cynthia: Back there, shut up don't get told.
- 1:49:24Carmen Lezeth: Don't get told from my side or his side.
- 1:49:26Tony D.: I'm just saying trying to make sure he ain't leave out that back door.
- 1:49:28Tony D.: You're right, I told you.
- 1:49:30Maurio: You know how that door move that door, just move you.
- 1:49:34Carmen Lezeth: Better be quiet back there don't get knocked in bed be quiet, be here he is absolutely fine there's nothing wrong with him.
- 1:49:41Cynthia: You guys are so crazy.
- 1:49:44Rick Costa: How did you find a case of the handcuffs?
- 1:49:48Rick Costa: What are you doing?
- 1:49:49Maurio: Get back in that room, that movie is almost over for you.
- 1:49:53Carmen Lezeth: You're sitting there like this.
- 1:49:57Carmen Lezeth: Anyways, I would love to at some point think that I could be in a committed relationship.
- 1:50:02Carmen Lezeth: That was different, but you know, you got to figure that out with the right person.
- 1:50:06Carmen Lezeth: And it's too hard because as you get older, at least for me I'm not talking for everyone, but for me my standards are so high.
- 1:50:12Carmen Lezeth: Now it's just, and it's like, not negotiable, you know.
- 1:50:22Alma: You know what you're not the first person that I've heard say that who are single.
- 1:50:24Alma: But because they like things a certain way, they'd like to know that things in their house are the way they left them, that they don't have to worry about anybody else coming in and messing stuff up, and you know that kind of thing.
- 1:50:34Alma: And then you can go to your space and I have my space and you know all of that, and I can go when I want and come back when I want, and I don't have to be accountable to anyone but myself.
- 1:50:43Alma: So I mean, you know.
- 1:50:44Carmen Lezeth: Well, can I just say that it's probably not that stuff.
- 1:50:46Carmen Lezeth: You're right, I have gotten set in my ways we all have after a certain amount of time.
- 1:50:50Carmen Lezeth: But can I just say that it's actually a little bit different.
- 1:50:52Carmen Lezeth: What I'm talking about.
- 1:50:53Carmen Lezeth: It's like I need somebody to to move into his house, or him move into you know, cause then it's like it's not really ours, right?
- 1:51:09Carmen Lezeth: So that changes the dynamics, because that means somebody has to have a certain level of income and I hate that.
- 1:51:11Carmen Lezeth: But I met my ex-husband and he was a tow truck driver and he is now extremely successful.
- 1:51:15Carmen Lezeth: But we fell in love, we, we, we hung out.
- 1:51:17Carmen Lezeth: He's a great guy and it was wonderful, but I was the money maker and that was a problem for us, you know.
- 1:51:24Carmen Lezeth: I mean, it was a huge problem, especially, uh, because of where he comes from and the whole kind of.
- 1:51:28Carmen Lezeth: You know, I'm the man of the house.
- 1:51:29Carmen Lezeth: I'm like, yeah, bitch, no, you're not because he's israeli.
- 1:51:34Carmen Lezeth: Israeli, oh so, but it's.
- 1:51:37Carmen Lezeth: But you see what I mean.
- 1:51:38Carmen Lezeth: It became a big problem, and so for me, one of the non-negotiables is that and that takes out a lot of wonderful men but I can't.
- 1:51:45Carmen Lezeth: I, I can.
- 1:51:46Carmen Lezeth: I am taking care of myself.
- 1:51:47Carmen Lezeth: I'm taking care of the people in my life.
- 1:51:48Carmen Lezeth: I can't take care of somebody else.
- 1:51:50Alma: I want to take care of other people, so that standard comes from a place of trauma, though that's something that's starting.
- 1:51:55Carmen Lezeth: I don't call it yeah.
- 1:51:57Carmen Lezeth: I just want somebody who knows what they're doing, who has ambition and has an income.
- 1:52:04Carmen Lezeth: I'm not saying they have to have the same kind of money I do, although that would be a blessing, or more so why don't you get on Raya, since you know all these people in the business?
- 1:52:11Carmen Lezeth: I'm tired, no-transcript.
- 1:52:33Carmen Lezeth: Anybody else was doing it right way back in the day when they had yahoo personals, and that's when I met robert and I know cynthia's like no, here we go I was so in love with him.
- 1:52:45Carmen Lezeth: We're friends now.
- 1:52:46Carmen Lezeth: Well, we're not really friends, but you know I ain't mad at him, she didn't move.
- 1:52:49Carmen Lezeth: She was like, and the whole expression just changed across her face it was like Well, because everybody knows that was my everything, you know what I mean and it didn't work out.
- 1:52:58Carmen Lezeth: He's probably listening to this going like bitch.
- 1:53:00Alma: Please shut up, stop talking about me, but I mean I already went down that road, and I'm not against online dating.
- 1:53:07Carmen Lezeth: It just takes.
- 1:53:08Carmen Lezeth: It does take a lot of work and I don't want to do that either.
- 1:53:11Carmen Lezeth: I'm tired, but I do like I would love to meet somebody in the industry.
- 1:53:15Carmen Lezeth: That is definitely because I love what.
- 1:53:18Rick Costa: No, I said right, tony no what's.
- 1:53:20Cynthia: Tony saying he didn't say nothing.
- 1:53:22Tony D.: I'll do a little more.
- 1:53:23Carmen Lezeth: Okay, I'm just saying I think the other part of this too is I want somebody who is in the industry, of course, because I love Hollywood, and I don't want somebody bashing Hollywood.
- 1:53:32Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean.
- 1:53:32Carmen Lezeth: And I'm not saying these are like, if they don't, I won't.
- 1:53:35Carmen Lezeth: If you meet the right person, I think you know I.
- 1:53:38Carmen Lezeth: You said Alma, you know what I mean.
- 1:53:39Carmen Lezeth: I think he could be anybody, but I'm just saying at the moment in my head, if we're just talking about what I want, there are some things I have in my head.
- 1:53:47Carmen Lezeth: But if I were to walk down the street tomorrow and meet somebody and I just know, like you did, oh, I'm in a hundred percent.
- 1:53:52Maurio: You should have told me this when I was still working at the bank.
- 1:53:55Maurio: I would have been able to vet everybody.
- 1:53:57Carmen Lezeth: Sweetie, when you were at the bank.
- 1:54:00Maurio: I was married.
- 1:54:00Maurio: See, that's what I'm saying.
- 1:54:02Maurio: That's what I'm saying.
- 1:54:02Maurio: I can't bet.
- 1:54:03Carmen Lezeth: I can't bet nobody now hey, listen, I do not regret that marriage at all.
- 1:54:06Carmen Lezeth: I got my goddaughter, juliana, and I got who's one of my best friends.
- 1:54:11Carmen Lezeth: That is not anything.
- 1:54:12Carmen Lezeth: That's why I said it's a different situation.
- 1:54:14Carmen Lezeth: Our divorce was not complicated, hard or painful, you know what I mean.
- 1:54:17Carmen Lezeth: And I helped him after and now he's extremely successful, which is like like the blessing.
- 1:54:21Carmen Lezeth: That, I think, is amazing.
- 1:54:23Carmen Lezeth: You know he does motocross and he, you know, has a whole industry and a business around motocross and the CHP and it's just amazing.
- 1:54:31Carmen Lezeth: So he's mad at me right now.
- 1:54:33Carmen Lezeth: So if he, if his daughter or him, are listening, it'll be funny, but he's really hating me right now, but that's okay.
- 1:54:38Rick Costa: I was going to say earlier that I know and I know you do, probably too, everybody here, but I know a lot of people that when they got married the second time, that was it Because they were like the first time I was young, I was dumb, I don't know what I was doing, I didn't know who I was yet.
- 1:54:51Rick Costa: But now the second time they're more mature, they know what they like, what they don't like, what they will tolerate, what they won't tolerate, and they're for years and years and years.
- 1:54:59Rick Costa: Yeah.
- 1:55:00Carmen Lezeth: Can I say this part too?
- 1:55:01Carmen Lezeth: I don't think I have to get married to find that either.
- 1:55:03Carmen Lezeth: No offense about the marriage thing, but I do.
- 1:55:06Alma: You can have a great partner.
- 1:55:07Carmen Lezeth: We're having a real deep, cool relationship where we're committed to adjust to each other, whatever.
- 1:55:12Carmen Lezeth: But I don't have to have I'm not going to have a big wedding or whatever.
- 1:55:15Maurio: I don't want all that you need to tell me you're not going to have the big coming to America wedding.
- 1:55:21Maurio: You know what?
- 1:55:24Carmen Lezeth: Now that you just said that, if it happens, that's what we're going to do, it's going to be so exactly ghetto like that.
- 1:55:31Cynthia: I'll stand up there and say she's your queen, I'm going to hold you to that that's going to be funny.
- 1:55:36Carmen Lezeth: I want to know why.
- 1:55:38Carmen Lezeth: Oh my God, it's two and a half hours.
- 1:55:40Carmen Lezeth: Hour and a half ago.
- 1:55:44Carmen Lezeth: Yep, but we're having so much fun.
- 1:55:44Rick Costa: I know it's Friday, it's Friday, it's Friday.
- 1:55:47Carmen Lezeth: This is.
- 1:55:47Carmen Lezeth: I mean, you know what I just I didn't know it was.
- 1:55:49Carmen Lezeth: Oh my God, I didn't even see it.
- 1:55:50Carmen Lezeth: I thought it was maybe like an hour 40 minutes.
- 1:55:54Carmen Lezeth: Tony, I don't listen to you.
- 1:55:55Carmen Lezeth: So why?
- 1:55:55Carmen Lezeth: I know, I know clear to me that I do not listen to you.
- 1:56:00Carmen Lezeth: It is so crystal clear Crystal clear that my ears do not listen to you at all.
- 1:56:05Rick Costa: Tony's like no, I'm not crazy.
- 1:56:07Rick Costa: Thank you, You're welcome.
- 1:56:09Tony D.: What were?
- 1:56:11Rick Costa: you going to say to Cynthia Me?
- 1:56:12Rick Costa: I thought you were going to say something to Cynthia, yeah.
- 1:56:17Maurio: I was going to ask Cynthia something.
- 1:56:19Carmen Lezeth: What's up, Cynthia?
- 1:56:22Carmen Lezeth: Who do you see me with?
- 1:56:23Carmen Lezeth: You know me pretty well.
- 1:56:26Cynthia: I don't think, chris, this sounds worse.
- 1:56:28Carmen Lezeth: You know what's so funny.
- 1:56:29Carmen Lezeth: I kid around about that, but I would never date that man.
- 1:56:31Carmen Lezeth: He could be my son.
- 1:56:33Carmen Lezeth: I would never date him.
- 1:56:34Carmen Lezeth: But let me just say he is as beautiful as they come.
- 1:56:41Alma: She wouldn't, but yeah, she would.
- 1:56:44Carmen Lezeth: You know what I want?
- 1:56:44Carmen Lezeth: A man in his 50s.
- 1:56:45Carmen Lezeth: I do.
- 1:56:46Carmen Lezeth: I don't want someone in their 40s or younger.
- 1:56:49Carmen Lezeth: I know I could, but yeah, I could enjoy the experience of it, but I don't think I could ever.
- 1:56:56Carmen Lezeth: I think age for me does matter.
- 1:56:58Carmen Lezeth: I want somebody who knows more than I do.
- 1:57:02Alma: All I can think of is dress, socks and temperaments.
- 1:57:07Carmen Lezeth: Okay, there's an inside joke happening and we don't know what it is.
- 1:57:11Rick Costa: Michael stop.
- 1:57:14Carmen Lezeth: Wait, what are you guys laughing about?
- 1:57:18Maurio: There's a joke If there's a man of a particular age, when he has sex he's wearing dress socks.
- 1:57:26Maurio: There's a lot of slipping and sliding, but if there's a young man, he's going to wear a Timberland.
- 1:57:35Alma: Okay yes, he's going to hit the target.
- 1:57:37Alma: When you said 50s, I was like oh Lord.
- 1:57:42Carmen Lezeth: You don't want to be somebody that old.
- 1:57:45Maurio: She said she wants you to have somebody with Timberlands, timberlands, timberlands.
- 1:57:51Carmen Lezeth: Michael, as long as you like, marvel.
- 1:57:56Maurio: But she didn't say that the person behind the door didn't have Timberlands.
- 1:57:59Maurio: She didn't say that or dress-ups the person behind the door or dress-ups door didn't have Timberland she didn't say that, or dress socks I don't know, do I?
- 1:58:07Carmen Lezeth: look like a Birkenstock type of person.
- 1:58:09Maurio: No, no, you might have some jades on.
- 1:58:15Carmen Lezeth: I am a clean cut kind of person, though Carmen likes the athletic body.
- 1:58:19Cynthia: Yeah Right, I'm just saying, carmen likes the athletic body.
- 1:58:22Maurio: Yeah, yeah Right, I'm just saying though.
- 1:58:23Carmen Lezeth: I'm just saying, like Carmen likes the athletic.
- 1:58:26Carmen Lezeth: I'm just saying, do we not all appreciate a beautiful body?
- 1:58:29Carmen Lezeth: I'm just saying True, oh, I'm kicking the thing, sorry.
- 1:58:32Carmen Lezeth: Okay, so are you guys going to try to hook me up with something?
- 1:58:35Carmen Lezeth: Is that?
- 1:58:37Maurio: what's happening.
- 1:58:38Maurio: Because I'm working on it, I might have some light for you, okay.
- 1:58:44Carmen Lezeth: But we'll talk because I need to know.
- 1:58:45Maurio: Okay, but race don't matter to me, I'm really, but I need to know the salary requirements.
- 1:58:48Maurio: What's the salary minimum?
- 1:58:49Maurio: $150,000.
- 1:58:50Carmen Lezeth: $250,000.
- 1:58:51Tony D.: She said it, I was upset $250,000.
- 1:58:55Carmen Lezeth: But that's not really a requirement.
- 1:58:56Carmen Lezeth: I'm just saying If I'm ticking, I'm not stupid.
- 1:58:59Carmen Lezeth: Like I said, what Alma just said was so inspiring and it's just what you dream about.
- 1:59:05Carmen Lezeth: Somebody walks in the room and you're like I'm going to marry him, like for real, and you know it.
- 1:59:10Carmen Lezeth: Like I love that.
- 1:59:11Tony D.: I do too.
- 1:59:12Tony D.: Yeah, isn't that beautiful, I would take that I don't care how much you make the brand.
- 1:59:16Carmen Lezeth: If I know it, that's solid it.
- 1:59:18Rick Costa: It's like a Hallmark movie.
- 1:59:20Rick Costa: No, it doesn't need that.
- 1:59:22Rick Costa: Well, the black version.
- 1:59:23Cynthia: They do have a black.
- 1:59:24Carmen Lezeth: Hallmark version.
- 1:59:25Carmen Lezeth: It's a little bit better, but it's a little bit bland.
- 1:59:28Carmen Lezeth: We all be E2+.
- 1:59:32Carmen Lezeth: But yeah, I mean, I have those ideals, but I'm not stupid.
- 1:59:37Carmen Lezeth: I know, when you meet the right person, you just know, you just know.
- 1:59:39Carmen Lezeth: And again, I'm not upset.
- 1:59:44Carmen Lezeth: I do not regret that at all.
- 1:59:45Carmen Lezeth: It was the right.
- 1:59:46Carmen Lezeth: It happened the way it happened.
- 1:59:46Carmen Lezeth: But I understand why it happened now, because I was supposed to have.
- 1:59:50Maurio: But the thing is, I don't think, but if you, if you found the right person, and if he's not right at the target number, but if he's within that range, that realm, would you be okay?
- 2:00:06Alma: No, I just said.
- 2:00:07Alma: So what I heard her say was here we go, here we go.
- 2:00:09Alma: If they tick all the other boxes they have ambition, they have their own, they're established, not necessarily have that salary, but all of those other requirements are met, then she's open.
- 2:00:22Rick Costa: Yeah, I'm open if I ever need a mediator, I'm calling out right.
- 2:00:27Carmen Lezeth: Yes, alma is the queen on this she hears everything no, no, I mean mario.
- 2:00:32Carmen Lezeth: I'm saying like if you sat with me right now and said, carmen, what are your requirements?
- 2:00:34Carmen Lezeth: Like if you could have the perfect guy in your life, whatever, I would give you the list, okay, okay, at the end of the day, if I was at a grocery store and I saw a man walk in front of me, or whatever what's chestnut okay you could do that.
- 2:00:51Carmen Lezeth: That works for me.
- 2:00:52Carmen Lezeth: Why is that a problem that works?
- 2:00:54Maurio: no, she said more stuff than for her.
- 2:00:57Cynthia: Oh, we on the same page sister.
- 2:01:03Carmen Lezeth: Is that your past?
- 2:01:04Carmen Lezeth: Who's your past?

- 2:16:04Carmen Lezeth: Mario's show is the highest rated on my podcast and on YouTube, but anyway, it's a private show.

- 2:17:05Carmen Lezeth: Sadie, great, I would love to have you come on.

- 2:17:15Tony D.: She might not want me here, she might not want me here.

- 2:19:17Tony D.: Me and Tommy were beefing so damn bad.
- 2:19:19Tony D.: And the time was I was watching the show and I was always dropping the little emoji on different platforms.
- 2:19:25Tony D.: And then one time she did it.
- 2:19:26Tony D.: I said, let me find out, I'm an influence to you.
- 2:19:29Tony D.: I said, as a matter of fact, I formally request to be a guest on your show.
- 2:19:31Tony D.: And she was like of course you can come on my show.
- 2:19:33Tony D.: And I came on like I never thought this was going to the past.
- 2:19:38Tony D.: Woman is something else, but I had no problem coming on the stream with her having fun, and that's what I've been trying to do since I got here.
- 2:19:44Tony D.: So I just want to celebrate it.
- 2:19:46Tony D.: Anytime I'm a guest on any show.
- 2:19:47Tony D.: I think it's an honor when you're in due at a time that you're up there.
- 2:19:50Tony D.: So I am grateful.
- 2:19:51Tony D.: I do want to say thank you.
- 2:19:52Tony D.: I've always thought it me so crazy.
- 2:19:54Tony D.: Of course I would love to have you.
- 2:20:04Carmen Lezeth: The only thing I didn't like about having you on the show.
- 2:20:06Carmen Lezeth: Let's just be honest.
- 2:20:06Carmen Lezeth: I was always worried about the people that follow you, not Stacey, not the good people, but you know we had some issues with some.
- 2:20:13Carmen Lezeth: So, just so, mario and Alma and Cynthia know, we met on apps.
- 2:20:17Carmen Lezeth: We different app that kind of had this live streaming kind of thing happening.
- 2:20:28Carmen Lezeth: It was kind of like a twitch thing, right, yeah, so it was encompassed, you know, and it was during covid.
- 2:20:30Carmen Lezeth: It was very toxic.
- 2:20:31Carmen Lezeth: It was very toxic and so.
- 2:20:31Carmen Lezeth: But tony brings a lot of people to whatever platform he's on um, and so I'm grateful.
- 2:20:34Carmen Lezeth: But I also didn't want to impose on you because you're wanted on so many places, you're always what's on a lot of shows and so it was great to be like I live always on a lot of shows, and so it was great to be like I do.
- 2:20:44Carmen Lezeth: I live stream with a lot of people.

- 2:21:59Carmen Lezeth: I met her when she was pregnant with her baby girl and she was just so cool and just okay.
- 2:22:06Carmen Lezeth: Here's what I'm going to say.
- 2:22:07Carmen Lezeth: Most women, when they meet me, get very jealous, you know.
- 2:22:10Carmen Lezeth: They just do.
- 2:22:11Carmen Lezeth: They get nasty.
- 2:22:12Carmen Lezeth: I don't know what it is, I don't know if it's my aura, my presence or whatever, but most women, especially when I'm friends with their husband or whatever, get real and you were like, hey, girl, you give me a hug and I will always remember that I will, and it was like we became instantaneously like friends.
- 2:22:24Carmen Lezeth: It was no problem at all.
- 2:22:27Carmen Lezeth: Do you know what I'm saying?
- 2:22:27Carmen Lezeth: Like it matters to me.
- 2:22:29Maurio: Yes.
- 2:22:30Carmen Lezeth: I just always love that about you.
- 2:22:32Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, thank you.
- 2:22:34Maurio: Yeah, for whatever reason, our daughter is texting us incessantly as we're on here.
- 2:22:38Maurio: I guess she was trying to make comments in the in the chat and it's not working.
- 2:22:43Maurio: Are you on youtube, marissa?
- 2:22:47Maurio: Yeah, she's on youtube, are you?
- 2:22:49Maurio: We have other people on youtube making he says she's logged in, but for whatever reason she needs to subscribe, I guess.
- 2:22:59Carmen Lezeth: Oh well, tell her.
- 2:22:59Carmen Lezeth: I'm so sorry, I have no idea, but I will put in a claim to the people at restream.
- 2:23:02Carmen Lezeth: I don't know they can's not Restream it's YouTube.
- 2:23:05Maurio: How many comments have you made, marissa?
- 2:23:06Maurio: She said 45.
- 2:23:08Maurio: 45 comments.
- 2:23:09Tony D.: I've read 45 comments, 45 comments, because sometimes YouTube comments don't come through.
- 2:23:15Tony D.: That's what I was trying to say.
- 2:23:15Carmen Lezeth: No, but I have YouTube people on here right now.
- 2:23:23Tony D.: Melanie's on here.
- 2:23:24Tony D.: Anthony has had an issue like that um she's also on other platforms she's got her on twitch or facebook or whatever she can comment on those, yeah, but I feel bad.
- 2:23:27Carmen Lezeth: Oh, marissa, I wish, I want to, I want to meet her, I want to see.
- 2:23:29Maurio: I have not met marissa she's not properly dressed to be on camera.
- 2:23:32Carmen Lezeth: It would have been nice to see her comment, because I met her when she was in her mama's belly and I've never yeah, and I'm gonna say this comment I don't think that I've ever been, I'm not um.
- 2:23:45Alma: If mario calls you friend, then I know that in his heart that's what it is.
- 2:23:49Alma: You're his friend, so I've never been um.
- 2:23:51Alma: I've always been very secure in his love for me, so it's never a you know, a jealousy thing or anything like that.
- 2:23:58Alma: So if you're his friend, you're my friend, but that's just how I feel.
- 2:24:05Alma: It means the world to me.
- 2:24:06Carmen Lezeth: It means the world to me because I it's something I've always had a problem with.
- 2:24:09Carmen Lezeth: You know, having friends who are men, who are married or have girlfriends, and then I end up having to walk away because I would never overstep, I would never do that to another woman.
- 2:24:17Maurio: It's not about no but I've never given her reason to feel any anything other than you know.
- 2:24:20Maurio: Because I've never given her reason to feel anything other than you know.
- 2:24:22Maurio: Because I've never been that dude.
- 2:24:24Maurio: I've always.
- 2:24:25Maurio: It didn't matter.
- 2:24:26Maurio: Even before I met Emma, I was always that steady, ready, friendly type of dude.
- 2:24:30Maurio: If I'm with you, then I'm with you, but when I'm out, I'm out.
- 2:24:33Carmen Lezeth: Let me just say something, and I say this respectfully, because you know I love you, Mario, with all my heart.
- 2:24:36Carmen Lezeth: It's not about you?
- 2:24:37Carmen Lezeth: This is a woman thing.
- 2:24:38Maurio: It is absolutely about me.
- 2:24:40Maurio: It's your whole life.
- 2:24:41Maurio: It's always about me.
- 2:24:43Carmen Lezeth: No, no, but you know what I'm saying, right, like it, really there's a woman thing and for me I respect married women, like and I'm going to say this straight up and this might sound conceited, I don't mean married men tend to come up to me more so than single men.
- 2:24:59Carmen Lezeth: I don't know what that?
- 2:25:00Carmen Lezeth: Because I respect women, because I would never turn around and do that to a woman, because I would hope another woman would not do that ever to me.
- 2:25:06Carmen Lezeth: So it don't matter what you do.
- 2:25:09Carmen Lezeth: I'm saying respectfully it's about Alma.
- 2:25:12Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, okay, mario and I are no longer friends, but Alma and I are best friends forever.
- 2:25:17Alma: You've been disowned.
- 2:25:22Carmen Lezeth: I've been disowned many a time um, tell marissa, I'm sorry, I don't know what happened, but I would have loved to have her uh comment or whatever, so I can't believe you I can't believe you would do this to me?
- 2:25:34Maurio: yes she said the amount of betrayal that I feel oh, she is so your daughter mario oh yeah yeah, that's how everyone.
- 2:25:44Alma: She looks like me.
- 2:25:44Alma: She acts exactly like her dad.
- 2:25:46Alma: You won't see me, but you will hear me.
