- 0:09Carmen Lezeth: Welcome to the show Officially.
- 0:12Carmen Lezeth: So glad to have you here.
- 0:14Carmen Lezeth: You know Ted Hick sent me a text today that he's upset that you're moonlighting on all of us.
- 0:22Carmen Lezeth: Officially, Tony will be on the show every.
- 0:25Carmen Lezeth: Did we say fourth Thursday of the month?
- 0:27Carmen Lezeth: Right, okay, wait, all right.
- 0:30Carmen Lezeth: So I'm a little off because I was out last week and let me just tell everybody where I was.
- 0:35Carmen Lezeth: I went home to Patty Ann Wernig, I guess is her married name, but I've always known her as Patty Ann Martin passed away.
- 0:43Carmen Lezeth: Mary Ann Joann's older sister their parents are my godparents.
- 0:48Carmen Lezeth: I grew up with them.
- 0:49Carmen Lezeth: They're my family.
- 0:50Carmen Lezeth: I love them.
- 0:51Carmen Lezeth: And she passed away unexpectedly and so I went home last week and I have to say one of the most amazing things that happened was they had the memorial service.
- 1:01Carmen Lezeth: Then afterwards they, they had this hall that they rented out and there was all this food, and then there was a bar and there was this whole celebration of her life, some like drinking wine, coolers or whatever.
- 1:12Carmen Lezeth: And at one point I see all the nieces and nephews and they're all singing and they're just singing all these old school songs that were Patty's favorites, right.
- 1:22Carmen Lezeth: At one point I looked over and I saw this other generation of kids just absolutely singing and enjoying and loving on all this old school music from our day in honor of their auntie, and it was like it almost felt like surreal in a way, and so I really loved seeing everyone and I want to give a shout out to all the kids.
- 1:44Carmen Lezeth: But I want to give a shout out to a few people.
- 1:45Carmen Lezeth: So, Kasey Stratton, I know you're watching, so thank you, I miss you, sweet love.
- 1:51Carmen Lezeth: And then there's Brendan, Samantha, Ari, Kirsten, Jonathan Trevor I want to say to Linda and Lisa and Lori these are people watch a show and I didn't know that and Sally High, and then, of course, to Greg and Ricky and Mary and Jo-ann.
- 2:06Carmen Lezeth: So I just want to give my love to all of them.
- 2:08Carmen Lezeth: It was nice to be home with family.
- 2:10Carmen Lezeth: By the way, I'm not from New Hampshire, but when I say home, I mean with people you love.
- 2:15Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean Like.
- 2:16Carmen Lezeth: So it was nice to be around all them.
- 2:18Carmen Lezeth: So, yeah, okay.
- 2:20Carmen Lezeth: So now what I would like to do, which I was going to do first, but you know you were so busy.
- 2:24Carmen Lezeth: I wanted to talk to Tony.
- 2:26Carmen Lezeth: I know people have seen you on the show, but we've never kind of talked about where you're from, what you do, what you love.
- 2:34Carmen Lezeth: So why don't you tell us a little bit about yourself?
- 2:39Tony Dandridge: I going to preface this by telling you that you and I did this two years ago and I know you can't find it, so I don't mind running through it again.
- 2:48Carmen Lezeth: What are we talking about?
- 2:48Carmen Lezeth: This is a whole of the group of people I know it is fun, I'm going to do that.
- 2:53Tony Dandridge: No, I'm gonna do that for you because this is fun.
- 2:54Tony Dandridge: For those of you out there who do not know me, I am a retired Air National Guardsman.
- 2:59Tony Dandridge: I was an aircraft mechanic on F 16s in the military for 20 years.
- 3:02Tony Dandridge: I'm currently a civil service aircraft mechanic.
- 3:05Tony Dandridge: I work on F 15s as a civilian not military, but as a civilian on the military installation.
- 3:11Tony Dandridge: So a lot of times when I try to reserve comments or reserve actions because of where I'm at in life compared to where I could be if I didn't do right in the first damn place, some of you may want to follow that example.
- 3:21Tony Dandridge: Recently divorced, as of December last year, I'm a father of two boys and a stepfather of a stepdaughter my stepdaughter.
- 3:28Carmen Lezeth: Okay, back up right there, Back up right there.
- 3:31Carmen Lezeth: So, rick, the other day Tony and I were talking and he said he had the only kid I knew is Jason.
- 3:39Carmen Lezeth: How old is Jason, jason's how old?
- 3:42Carmen Lezeth: 11?
- 3:42Carmen Lezeth: 9?
- 3:43Tony Dandridge: 9.
- 3:45Carmen Lezeth: 9.
- 3:45Carmen Lezeth: Okay, and he's talking about he had a.
- 3:48Carmen Lezeth: Did you know?
- 3:48Carmen Lezeth: He had another son, he had two other children.
- 3:52Rick Costa: I know about the other son that was living with him for a while.
- 3:56Carmen Lezeth: He said that I should have known.
- 3:58Carmen Lezeth: That he told me before.
- 3:59Carmen Lezeth: I do not remember this at all.
- 4:01Carmen Lezeth: I would have remembered.
- 4:02Carmen Lezeth: That would have made you a much more substantive human being to me.
- 4:06Tony Dandridge: You know, you forgot what you did I did not know this.
- 4:12Carmen Lezeth: Okay, anyways, go ahead.
- 4:13Carmen Lezeth: This is gonna last 10 weeks.
- 4:15Carmen Lezeth: If you're watching, you can have your man back she ain't ready she ain't ready.
- 4:22Tony Dandridge: She ain't ready.
- 4:24Carmen Lezeth: I am not ready for this mess.
- 4:26Carmen Lezeth: No, Anyways.
- 4:28Carmen Lezeth: Okay, so you have three, kids three.
- 4:31Tony Dandridge: I have a stepdaughter is 25.
- 4:32Tony Dandridge: She just had a baby, so I'm a stepgrandfather as well.
- 4:35Tony Dandridge: My oldest son is yeah, my oldest son is 22.
- 4:39Tony Dandridge: He's a college graduate.
- 4:40Tony Dandridge: He graduated the film production about two years ago.
- 4:43Tony Dandridge: My baby boy is nine.
- 4:46Carmen Lezeth: Wow, well, congratulations on being a granddad.
- 4:49Carmen Lezeth: Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.
- 4:51Rick Costa: So you're the two new children I knew nothing about, so did it make you feel old when you found out to your grandpa?
- 5:01Rick Costa: Do you feel older?
- 5:03Tony Dandridge: At my age.
- 5:04Tony Dandridge: Technically, no, it is a trip, it is.
- 5:06Tony Dandridge: It is a trip realizing that I'm somewhat of and I say somewhat of a grandfather, because she knows her real dad and he's there.
- 5:12Tony Dandridge: I was just a stepfather, so I would say I got a stepgrandbaby.
- 5:16Tony Dandridge: I don't try to jump in, but she did come by, I did see him a little bit and you know, the family's there.
- 5:21Tony Dandridge: I'm gonna be there regardless.
- 5:23Tony Dandridge: So that's just how we're doing.
- 5:24Tony Dandridge: So we keep it, we keep it close, we keep it tight and she's always been appreciative of me so I'm always gonna look out for her.
- 5:30Tony Dandridge: You know what I mean.
- 5:31Carmen Lezeth: Right.
- 5:32Rick Costa: So you've been.
- 5:33Carmen Lezeth: I didn't know you were divorced almost a year ago.
- 5:36Tony Dandridge: Okay, I knew you were in the process.
- 5:40Tony Dandridge: I was in the process two years ago.
- 5:41Tony Dandridge: We got finalized last year and it's been messing me up.
- 5:43Tony Dandridge: I'm not gonna lie.
- 5:44Tony Dandridge: You know I tell people a lot, yeah done, yes finalized, but I'll be damned if it didn't have an impact.
- 5:50Tony Dandridge: I'll be damned if it didn't bother me.
- 5:51Tony Dandridge: I wouldn't be honest if I didn't say that it had me messed up up here.
- 5:57Tony Dandridge: I got to change my mindset back to not being married anymore.
- 5:59Tony Dandridge: It takes a lot to put your mind there in the first place, especially when you want to be there.
- 6:02Tony Dandridge: So when it's over, it kind of throws you backwards and for a lot of people who have been divorced, I understand what they went through.
- 6:11Tony Dandridge: Now, until you go through this, you can't relate and I'll tell anybody that this was when you want to be there and it doesn't work.
- 6:17Tony Dandridge: This is deeper than losing the job.
- 6:20Tony Dandridge: This is deeper than I want to say losing personal possessions.
- 6:24Tony Dandridge: You actually do kind of lose somebody in your life and what you had and what you established, what you put down, all of that.
- 6:29Tony Dandridge: Okay, can I ask you a question?
- 6:31Carmen Lezeth: Is this because you're still in love with your ex-wife, or you're just saying marriage as an institution you liked?
- 6:38Carmen Lezeth: Or is it the person you're missing, or is that too personal?
- 6:41Carmen Lezeth: I don't know.
- 6:43Tony Dandridge: It's a little bit of all of it.
- 6:44Tony Dandridge: I'll be damned if it's a little bit of all of it.
- 6:47Rick Costa: They used to.
- 6:48Rick Costa: They become a part of your identity and it's been like that for so long that it's like a party you feel like missing now.
- 6:55Rick Costa: And when you have kids on top of that, then that's even more of a connection which can never go away.
- 7:00Rick Costa: Like if you don't have kids, like you didn't have kids, carmen, so for you you should be like cut off or done, but when you got kids, there is no cutting off the connection.
- 7:09Tony Dandridge: That's the best way for me to describe it to a lot of people and see, I see what you're saying, technically and biologically, his grandfather still exists and his grandfather is still there.
- 7:19Tony Dandridge: That's why I say step grandfather on purpose, I'm not going to step on her dad.
- 7:22Tony Dandridge: I never tried to do that ever and he knows that Me.
- 7:26Tony Dandridge: I'm actually cool from that, because some dudes come in and be like you, ain't the father?
- 7:29Tony Dandridge: No more.
- 7:29Tony Dandridge: As my baby I never did anything.
- 7:31Tony Dandridge: I hate when dudes do that shit, I can't step in.
- 7:34Tony Dandridge: It's blatantly disrespectful to be parent who is still in the life and as somebody who is a mind game on the kids.
- 7:47Tony Dandridge: You don't just spend the biological parents when they're still around, even if they go on for a minute and they come through.
- 7:53Tony Dandridge: When her dad will come around, I'm like I'll take you to him, there ain't no problem.
- 7:56Tony Dandridge: And he already knew he had reservations about me and I don't blame him.
- 7:59Tony Dandridge: I don't because you don't trust nobody around your child.
- 8:02Tony Dandridge: You ain't supposed to.
- 8:03Tony Dandridge: But I was always like you'll see over time it's not a problem.
- 8:06Tony Dandridge: Her family was kind of in but as they grew to know me and they saw how comfortable she was and they realized I wasn't the issue.
- 8:11Tony Dandridge: They don't have a problem with me.
- 8:13Tony Dandridge: That's the best thing about it.
- 8:15Carmen Lezeth: So Cynthia said I understand, but it's still your grandbaby.
- 8:18Carmen Lezeth: And then Chris just said and our spirit seeks for that perfect love that God showed us from our beginning.
- 8:24Carmen Lezeth: It's devastating to be hurt.
- 8:25Carmen Lezeth: That's fair.
- 8:27Carmen Lezeth: That's fair.
- 8:30Tony Dandridge: You will realize people that you've heard over time when you go through something like this.
- 8:34Tony Dandridge: I've actually apologized to people for ways that I've been based on what I was going through, how much of an effect they had on me.
- 8:40Tony Dandridge: I admit that this was.
- 8:42Tony Dandridge: I don't wish this on anybody.
- 8:47Carmen Lezeth: I guess I'm still trying to understand.
- 8:49Carmen Lezeth: And again, I mean, rick, you're right, I don't have children.
- 8:53Carmen Lezeth: I also think it's I don't have.
- 8:56Carmen Lezeth: There was no anger in our divorce.
- 8:59Carmen Lezeth: It was kind of like we could just tell it was done.
- 9:02Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean.
- 9:03Carmen Lezeth: So we both needed to move away.
- 9:04Carmen Lezeth: So it was a little bit different.
- 9:05Carmen Lezeth: I guess my question is and this again anything you don't want to talk about, you don't have to talk about and we can just cut it off.
- 9:14Carmen Lezeth: But my question is are you still in love with your ex-wife or is it the institution of marriage that you're talking about?
- 9:22Carmen Lezeth: You said it's a little bit of all of it, but it sounds like I mean we're done.
- 9:27Tony Dandridge: I'll be honest, we're done.
- 9:29Carmen Lezeth: Okay, we're gonna be there.
- 9:30Tony Dandridge: We're gonna be there for our son, but we're done.
- 9:32Tony Dandridge: Am I gonna lie and be like I'm not gonna have an issue?
- 9:37Tony Dandridge: She moved on.
- 9:37Tony Dandridge: I'm not gonna lie like that.
- 9:38Tony Dandridge: I can't, because somebody-.
- 9:41Carmen Lezeth: Are you moving on?
- 9:41Carmen Lezeth: Are you moving on Like?
- 9:43Carmen Lezeth: Are you dating?
- 9:44Carmen Lezeth: Are you I'm not doing anything.
- 9:47Tony Dandridge: I'm not going anywhere.
- 9:47Tony Dandridge: I'm not going anywhere.
- 9:48Tony Dandridge: All I do is go to work, and I don't feel like it.
- 9:50Tony Dandridge: I really don't.
- 9:51Carmen Lezeth: That was my question.
- 9:52Carmen Lezeth: Are you able to move on and think about dating other people?
- 9:56Carmen Lezeth: Yes, okay, okay, I'm just trying to understand where your head's at when it comes to your ex-wife.
- 10:04Tony Dandridge: Because what was?
- 10:05Carmen Lezeth: coming across was that you were still in love with her.
- 10:07Carmen Lezeth: But it's good that you said no, we're done, we're done.
- 10:11Tony Dandridge: I could tell you that I meant what I did when I married her and that's the part I got to get over.
- 10:17Tony Dandridge: So for people out there who have any confusion, let me be clear.
- 10:21Tony Dandridge: When I went to go, say I do, I meant that shit.
- 10:23Tony Dandridge: When I went to work and came home and had nothing to worry about, I meant that shit.
- 10:27Carmen Lezeth: We can change the subject.
- 10:28Carmen Lezeth: Well, I got along with no, no, no, come on.
- 10:31Carmen Lezeth: I didn't mean to get into this.
- 10:33Carmen Lezeth: I was just part of getting to know you.
- 10:35Carmen Lezeth: But we can move into the whole Chandler Bing Friends situation If we'd like.
- 10:40Rick Costa: Random friends.
- 10:40Rick Costa: Come on, come on.
- 10:41Carmen Lezeth: You can ask me.
- 10:42Carmen Lezeth: Hi Random Rick, how are you?
- 10:44Carmen Lezeth: You can ask no, I think it was interesting because, no, I just know that Carmen knows all about your situation.
- 10:52Carmen Lezeth: This is such BS and it's not cool.
- 10:55Carmen Lezeth: What?
- 10:56Tony Dandridge: Look, I'm not busted at all.
- 10:57Tony Dandridge: I'm not busted at all.
- 11:00Tony Dandridge: Carmen, you can keep asking.
- 11:02Carmen Lezeth: I'm confused.
- 11:02Carmen Lezeth: What is happening?
- 11:03Carmen Lezeth: I know your situation, boy.
- 11:08Carmen Lezeth: This is one of the reasons why I didn't want you on this show, right?
- 11:11Carmen Lezeth: It's because all the people you've been doing with you that seem to always have negative issues or whatever, so I don't even know what to say now.
- 11:20Carmen Lezeth: We don't change the subject, because I am not in the mood.
- 11:23Carmen Lezeth: Oh no, no.
- 11:24Carmen Lezeth: No, I do have to because my show isn't going to be a rehash of crap from people who are just so silly, do you?
- 11:32Rick Costa: want to hear about how somebody flirted with me on the phone.
- 11:36Carmen Lezeth: Who flirted with you on the phone.
- 11:37Carmen Lezeth: You made it from work Work.
- 11:41Carmen Lezeth: Okay, wait.
- 11:43Carmen Lezeth: Will you want a zoom call or would you want a phone call?
- 11:45Rick Costa: No, no, no, no, it was a call.
- 11:46Rick Costa: It was a call, yeah.
- 11:48Rick Costa: So our company moved buildings and this new city is called Mount Dora.
- 11:53Rick Costa: So I have to call all these people and say we've moved the dresses.
- 11:57Rick Costa: Can you update your system?
- 11:58Rick Costa: Blah, blah, blah.
- 11:59Carmen Lezeth: Right.
- 12:00Rick Costa: And so this one girl, she just seemed really friendly, as it is anyway.
- 12:03Rick Costa: So I was like I'll give back to you what you give back to me.
- 12:05Rick Costa: And then so I'm telling her Mount Dora.
- 12:09Rick Costa: I was like Dora, like D-O-R-A, like Dora the Explorer, and she goes oh, I was just thinking about that, that's so funny.
- 12:14Rick Costa: I was like I know, I feel like saying I should say something in Spanish.
- 12:18Rick Costa: Can you say blah, blah, blah?
- 12:20Rick Costa: She says can you go ahead and say something in Spanish?
- 12:23Rick Costa: I said oh, okay.
- 12:25Carmen Lezeth: Wait a minute.
- 12:25Carmen Lezeth: Okay, I'm still trying to figure out what's going on here.
- 12:28Carmen Lezeth: It was weird.
- 12:31Carmen Lezeth: Was it weird or were you interested?
- 12:33Carmen Lezeth: I mean?
- 12:34Rick Costa: it's not like anything will happen.
- 12:35Rick Costa: I don't know.
- 12:35Rick Costa: It's a phone call, I mean come on.
- 12:37Tony Dandridge: It's from.
- 12:37Carmen Lezeth: Florida.
- 12:38Rick Costa: Hey you know clearly, it's just a phone call.
- 12:41Tony Dandridge: It's just a phone call it's just a phone call.
- 12:43Rick Costa: It was just funny, it made me laugh.
- 12:44Rick Costa: She said hey, you can say something in Spanish to me.
- 12:48Rick Costa: I said, oh okay, I was like what should I say?
- 12:54Rick Costa: Deals me.
- 12:55Rick Costa: I don't know.
- 12:56Rick Costa: Okay, wait so do you know this person no like, do you?
- 13:00Carmen Lezeth: have to know no, all right.
- 13:01Carmen Lezeth: Well, that's not fun If it's not going to go somewhere.
- 13:04Rick Costa: I just thought it was very funny.
- 13:08Carmen Lezeth: Well, and there was a good try to change the subject, but you know we're going to have to go back to Tony.
- 13:13Carmen Lezeth: Tony, you cool.
- 13:15Tony Dandridge: Ask away.
- 13:16Tony Dandridge: I'm great.
- 13:17Carmen Lezeth: I know, I know no you know it's so weird because, like this is, it's like interesting to like talk to you and get to know you, but what's not interesting is having to deal with all the people that you bring to the table when, when when you're on the table, I'm with them, or cool Some of them are cool and then some people act stupid.
- 13:36Carmen Lezeth: But just, I feel like this is always going to be an issue.
- 13:40Carmen Lezeth: If I have you on the show, we can't just have a like this was kind of a cool conversation right About you and your relationship, and now we got cut off because somehow we can't talk about it because you're going to have people in the comments being ridiculous.
- 13:56Tony Dandridge: I never know that.
- 13:56Tony Dandridge: I don't let things like that stop me.
- 13:58Tony Dandridge: Now, mind you, when I first started live stream with people, I used to see folks go through it all the time.
- 14:03Tony Dandridge: It's nothing, they always go through it.
- 14:05Tony Dandridge: Matter of fact for a lot of people who are on Periscope, you always saw somebody coming in saying something.
- 14:10Tony Dandridge: All you got to do is keep it going.
- 14:12Tony Dandridge: You could respond to it, but never let them stop your flow and never let that topic this isn't about me, Tony.
- 14:18Carmen Lezeth: This is it.
- 14:18Carmen Lezeth: Listen, listen, there's a quality.
- 14:19Tony Dandridge: I'm not saying.
- 14:20Carmen Lezeth: I'm not saying no, no, but I'm saying there's a quality and kind of show that's kind of fun.
- 14:24Carmen Lezeth: This is all about the joy, and some motherfucking people on in the comments don't understand what that means, right?
- 14:32Carmen Lezeth: So we're having this nice flow and conversation about your life that might be able to help other people, or getting deep about talking about some stuff, and what I don't like is this constant and this is and I'm going to say it, this is what I hated about haps and the people on haps.
- 14:50Carmen Lezeth: Like I don't care if I never see a motherfucking other person from haps ever again in my fucking life, because it's such negativity.
- 14:58Carmen Lezeth: It is such anger and sadness and everybody all is about gossip and about tearing people down, and even when you try to be nice to people, they still need to be a bitch.
- 15:12Carmen Lezeth: Hi, chris, your wine.
- 15:15Tony Dandridge: The way people Shadow.
- 15:17Tony Dandridge: I don't know if you're talking to me or you.
- 15:20Tony Dandridge: I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I'm sorry, I'm getting upset.
- 15:24Carmen Lezeth: Look at, the reason why I'm getting upset is because the people that just kind of stopped our flow are people who know better, and they're people I don't want near my show.
- 15:34Carmen Lezeth: But they choose to be here and they choose to listen and they choose to be negative human beings who are constantly trying to bring people down instead of lifting people up, and the interesting part about it is that they're always going after people who want nothing to do with them.
- 15:50Carmen Lezeth: So that's why I'm upset and I'm so not in the mood.
- 15:55Carmen Lezeth: I thought what you were talking about was great and I, you know.
- 15:59Carmen Lezeth: Again, anything you don't want to talk about personal is always your choice, and I actually don't know everything.
- 16:07Carmen Lezeth: Even if I did, even if I didn't know everything, there are people who watch the show who don't know you and might learn something, and I think that's the other part of this that makes me crazy.
- 16:22Carmen Lezeth: It's like if you are somebody who's a live streamer, if you are somebody who's a performer who does a show, you understand that when you are talking to people, you are talking Helen, get the fuck off my show, bitch.
- 16:35Carmen Lezeth: I'm so over you.
- 16:38Carmen Lezeth: I'm over you.
- 16:39Carmen Lezeth: You need to let shit go.
- 16:42Carmen Lezeth: My God, you are annoying.
- 16:45Carmen Lezeth: You are so annoying and now I'm going to attempt to block your fucking ass.
- 16:51Carmen Lezeth: You are one of the strangest people I have ever met in my entire motherfucking life.
- 16:58Carmen Lezeth: Like you actually have me having more feelings for somebody.
- 17:03Carmen Lezeth: Yes, I am too faced.
- 17:05Carmen Lezeth: Yes, if that makes you feel better, I don't know why you come on my show, listen to my show and then bitch to Rick and bitch to other people.
- 17:14Carmen Lezeth: I want nothing to do with you.
- 17:16Carmen Lezeth: I have blocked you.
- 17:17Carmen Lezeth: I have stopped talking to you because you are a nasty human being.
- 17:22Carmen Lezeth: You are angry, you cannot let things go, you cannot forgive people and you don't like admitting when you're wrong.
- 17:30Carmen Lezeth: You asked me a question about Tony.
- 17:33Carmen Lezeth: I already spoke to Tony about it and I told you the truth.
- 17:36Carmen Lezeth: I'm sorry, you're in love with Tony and you don't want to deal with the fact that he doesn't go visit you.
- 17:43Carmen Lezeth: What do you want me to say to you?
- 17:45Carmen Lezeth: We can do this.
- 17:46Carmen Lezeth: I'm angry with Helen because Helen cannot stop.
- 17:50Carmen Lezeth: And Helen, I don't go and watch your show, I don't go and follow you around, I don't go on the show all the time and you're ruining things and I think that's what you enjoy doing and I feel sad for you.
- 18:02Carmen Lezeth: And you can call me whatever baby.
- 18:04Carmen Lezeth: You can call me whatever Honey.
- 18:06Carmen Lezeth: I have been called every name in the book bitch, okay.
- 18:10Carmen Lezeth: Wait, you left me a message, tony.
- 18:13Tony Dandridge: No, not you, Randall Rick.
- 18:14Tony Dandridge: This is actually somebody else's broadcast.
- 18:16Tony Dandridge: In the morning I put all my channels on.
- 18:17Tony Dandridge: One of the reasons I don't put a lot of my channels on because what happens is sometimes everybody put a lot of channels on because I don't want to mess up.
- 18:25Tony Dandridge: I just don't want to get involved in this.
- 18:27Tony Dandridge: I just don't want to mess up.
- 18:29Carmen Lezeth: I didn't know what was going on.
- 18:31Carmen Lezeth: I didn't expect what happened to happen to me and I can apologize everybody.
- 18:34Tony Dandridge: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, no, no, no, no, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
- 18:36Tony Dandridge: I'm sorry, did I do something for you?
- 18:37Tony Dandridge: Thank, you.
- 18:38Carmen Lezeth: You're right, I got all my.
- 18:38Carmen Lezeth: I've been holding back on her for a long time, but what she did today, I would have never bothered with her, because she came on my show and wrote on my stream and called me a name.
- 18:51Carmen Lezeth: I don't understand the drama involved with people from HAPS and all this crap.
- 18:58Carmen Lezeth: I really don't get it.
- 18:59Carmen Lezeth: So, tony, I apologize to you, but you know what.
- 19:02Tony Dandridge: I didn't say I didn't wanna run it.
- 19:03Tony Dandridge: I'm telling anybody not to come on unless they act negative against the broadcast.
- 19:08Carmen Lezeth: And you don't think she's acting negatively against the broadcast?
- 19:11Tony Dandridge: I think she's giving her opinion and already knew what was gonna happen.
- 19:14Tony Dandridge: That's why I started singing.
- 19:15Carmen Lezeth: I like, oh, thank you, tony, here's what I'm gonna do, because this is not what I want my show to be about.
- 19:20Carmen Lezeth: Baby, as much as I want you on the show, I don't want this bitch and I'm calling you a bitch in the way that it's meant to be on my show.
- 19:27Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean.
- 19:29Carmen Lezeth: Like, I don't want her here because she's a negative human being.
- 19:32Carmen Lezeth: This woman is upset about something that happened in March when she asked us our opinion about whether or not we thought Tony was using her.
- 19:42Carmen Lezeth: So that's what she's upset about, because me and my friend, andrea truth or the truth?
- 19:46Carmen Lezeth: Well, because she's in love with you and she wanted to know if she should be pursuing you and we were like have you ever met each other?
- 19:55Carmen Lezeth: Why didn't you go to Scotland?
- 19:56Carmen Lezeth: You know, I told you about in the LinkedIn thing, you know so, and now and she's still bringing it up because she can't let it go I just told you I'm hella.
- 20:07Carmen Lezeth: I don't know why you think I'm hiding anything.
- 20:09Carmen Lezeth: I don't know why you think I'm so shy.
- 20:11Carmen Lezeth: I've never been shy about nothing.
- 20:14Carmen Lezeth: But Tony, tony, here's what I'm gonna do.
- 20:18Carmen Lezeth: You're gonna have to really rethink whether or not you want to be on show, and I have to rethink it too.
- 20:22Carmen Lezeth: I don't want this.
- 20:23Carmen Lezeth: I don't want this woman on my show.
- 20:25Carmen Lezeth: I don't want this drama on my show and I am gonna get this upset every time she comes on here and talks bullshit, because she is angry and she can't let things go and she's a nasty human being and I don't know what her drama is.
- 20:43Carmen Lezeth: But it's not what I want in my life and it's not what I want this show to be about, and I'm not a big enough person to just keep ignoring her because I want to interact with people on the show.
- 20:54Carmen Lezeth: You have to not listen to all of that.
- 20:56Carmen Lezeth: Now, you're right, chris.
- 20:57Carmen Lezeth: Chris, you're right.
- 20:58Carmen Lezeth: The problem is there's a little bit of history here and this woman is in love with Tony and she has issues because we told her what we thought about the situation and you know it is what it is.
- 21:10Carmen Lezeth: I think some people need therapy and they get it on social media.
- 21:15Carmen Lezeth: I just tried to block her, but for some reason it's not working.
- 21:19Carmen Lezeth: I don't know why.
- 21:20Carmen Lezeth: It doesn't matter.
- 21:21Carmen Lezeth: She keeps, she's gonna keep following.
- 21:23Carmen Lezeth: Isn't that weird to have somebody who just continuously trolls, like just for attention?
- 21:31Carmen Lezeth: That's like a weird thing.
- 21:32Carmen Lezeth: I don't.
- 21:33Carmen Lezeth: Rick is like I don't want any phone calls so I'm saying fucking nothing.
- 21:36Carmen Lezeth: That's your whole face right now.
- 21:40Carmen Lezeth: Look at here.
- 21:40Carmen Lezeth: Here's what I feel bad about is I can't do anything to help her.
- 21:48Carmen Lezeth: I also don't like her, so and I want, I don't want her in my life and so, tony, that means I don't want you on my show.
- 21:58Carmen Lezeth: I know that sounds horrible, but I think this is part of your thing and you don't take a stand.
- 22:05Carmen Lezeth: I've had this conversation with you before.
- 22:06Carmen Lezeth: You've allowed it because I think you like the ego boost of this woman falling around town.
- 22:12Tony Dandridge: What ego boost, what ego boost.
- 22:15Carmen Lezeth: Because someone liking you so much you're not gonna.
- 22:17Carmen Lezeth: You're like she's just giving her opinion.
- 22:19Carmen Lezeth: She's not giving her opinion, she's calling me names.
- 22:22Tony Dandridge: I've seen people waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting.
- 22:24Tony Dandridge: Remember, when you talk about giving opinions and saying what you want to say every time and you don't care.
- 22:28Tony Dandridge: Here's the kicker, and I've said this to her too.
- 22:31Tony Dandridge: You can't be like that on everybody's broadcast.
- 22:33Tony Dandridge: What pisses me off is when people come on and somebody else is showing.
- 22:36Tony Dandridge: Do that shit.
- 22:36Tony Dandridge: I don't like that.
- 22:37Tony Dandridge: That's why I don't do it.
- 22:38Tony Dandridge: I know that and I've told her.
- 22:41Tony Dandridge: That's why I just sat back.
- 22:42Tony Dandridge: I'm like you know what this is gonna be on her.
- 22:44Tony Dandridge: You know why I'm not saying that?
- 22:45Tony Dandridge: Because I've told her stop doing this for a year.
- 22:46Tony Dandridge: People don't have to believe this out there.
- 22:48Tony Dandridge: She's gonna keep doing like you said.
- 22:49Tony Dandridge: People have already told me she has changed accounts.
- 22:51Tony Dandridge: She has done all that.
- 22:52Tony Dandridge: She has done all that.
- 22:54Carmen Lezeth: You know that she does it because she's in love with you, right?
- 22:57Carmen Lezeth: Actually, this might be a really good conversation after all.
- 23:02Carmen Lezeth: Go ahead, baby Rick, I'm so sorry if your phone blows up, but you already know you need the block.
- 23:10Rick Costa: We're good so far, so good yeah.
- 23:12Rick Costa: So people who are listening?
- 23:16Rick Costa: Who are like what the?
- 23:16Tony Dandridge: fuck is going on, what you want me to stop?
- 23:22Carmen Lezeth: I'm not asking.
- 23:23Carmen Lezeth: Look, it feels like we don't have a choice.
- 23:24Carmen Lezeth: It feels like we have to have this motherfucking conversation.
- 23:27Carmen Lezeth: It's either that or you need to get off the show and I need to go talk about something else.
- 23:31Carmen Lezeth: But we're here now.
- 23:32Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean.
- 23:34Carmen Lezeth: It's like you don't have.
- 23:35Carmen Lezeth: I'm gonna go ahead and say this Look it, I guess my question is to you.
- 23:40Carmen Lezeth: It's like it's not people.
- 23:43Carmen Lezeth: This is Helen.
- 23:43Carmen Lezeth: It's not people, Tony.
- 23:46Tony Dandridge: She's not the only one who does this and I'm gonna go ahead and say this I've seen people do this before her and I've told them to stop acting like this before her, Before I went through the situation, I've seen people do this.
- 23:56Tony Dandridge: Why are you talking about anyone else but Helen?
- 23:58Tony Dandridge: Because every time this happens, we don't talk about that one person.
- 24:02Tony Dandridge: I tell everybody on social media they need to stop doing this.
- 24:05Tony Dandridge: I just talked about this and tell you it's show up in a month ago.
- 24:06Carmen Lezeth: This is not a global phenomenon.
- 24:07Carmen Lezeth: Sweetie, I know you.
- 24:09Tony Dandridge: It is, it is, it's not my life, my life right now.
- 24:12Carmen Lezeth: This is the problem In your life no In your life.
- 24:14Tony Dandridge: No, that I see this.
- 24:15Carmen Lezeth: This woman is the problem.
- 24:16Carmen Lezeth: That's why I've been quiet.
- 24:17Tony Dandridge: I see this everywhere.
- 24:18Tony Dandridge: That's why I've been quiet.
- 24:18Tony Dandridge: I'm tired of telling people to do this, and people want to do it on purpose.
- 24:21Carmen Lezeth: They want to do this.
- 24:22Carmen Lezeth: Wait, they do this to you all the time.
- 24:23Carmen Lezeth: I'm confused.
- 24:24Tony Dandridge: I didn't save me.
- 24:25Tony Dandridge: I didn't save me.
- 24:26Tony Dandridge: I said I've seen this on other broadcasts.
- 24:28Tony Dandridge: They used to do this all the time on Periscope before they were doing it on Haps.
- 24:33Tony Dandridge: I know, I know, but that's the whole other thing.
- 24:35Carmen Lezeth: That's not what this show is about.
- 24:36Carmen Lezeth: That's what I'm trying to say.
- 24:37Carmen Lezeth: My show is always about what's supposed to be I guess not today, but it's always supposed to be about joy and about bringing happiness and about trying to walk through situations.
- 24:51Carmen Lezeth: It's not about this bullshittery, this crap.
- 24:54Carmen Lezeth: It's her jealousy.
- 24:57Carmen Lezeth: It's her needing to win and be right and not take any responsibility.
- 25:04Carmen Lezeth: I'm also going to put some shit on you, which is what I always do.
- 25:08Carmen Lezeth: It's also your responsibility because you continue to allow it to happen.
- 25:12Tony Dandridge: So I allow it to happen.
- 25:14Carmen Lezeth: Well, yeah, because instead of saying Helen, cut the shit, and having a conversation with her, you're like globally, I tell everybody, I tell everybody.
- 25:25Tony Dandridge: How many people are running after you and doing?
- 25:27Carmen Lezeth: this shit with other people?
- 25:28Carmen Lezeth: What?
- 25:29Tony Dandridge: I've told her to stop doing this, in private and in public, more than once.
- 25:34Carmen Lezeth: I've told many people that's not doing this.
- 25:35Carmen Lezeth: She doesn't sell the people on other shows.
- 25:39Tony Dandridge: She's done this on other shows.
- 25:40Tony Dandridge: Yes, she's not the only one.
- 25:43Carmen Lezeth: Well, she needs some help.
- 25:44Carmen Lezeth: So what do you think is her issue with doing this whenever you're around?
- 25:49Carmen Lezeth: What do you think?
- 25:50Carmen Lezeth: Because every time you were around before, if you came on our show and talked on our show, then Rick would have to deal with a whole bunch of text messages or whatever.
- 26:00Carmen Lezeth: He would never tell me about it, but I could always motherfucking tell because we'd be having our meeting and he'd be all like pissed off and shit.
- 26:08Carmen Lezeth: So here's my question what is it that you think about you?
- 26:14Rick Costa: Hey.
- 26:14Carmen Lezeth: Ash bring some joy in the room.
- 26:17Tony Dandridge: What's up, ash, how you doing.
- 26:18Tony Dandridge: What's up, ash, how you doing.
- 26:21Carmen Lezeth: What is it that you think is about you, that this comes out?
- 26:25Carmen Lezeth: What do you think is happening there?
- 26:28Tony Dandridge: I think it's me.
- 26:28Tony Dandridge: I think it's me.
- 26:29Tony Dandridge: Yeah, I see that Some people just want to do this.
- 26:32Tony Dandridge: I don't think it has anything to do with me.
- 26:34Tony Dandridge: People can't wait to call people out.
- 26:35Tony Dandridge: You think Helen's Bullshitery?
- 26:38Carmen Lezeth: Wait, wait, wait, wait.
- 26:39Carmen Lezeth: I want to be Kalea.
- 26:41Carmen Lezeth: You think Helen's Bullshitery has nothing to do with you?
- 26:47Tony Dandridge: I've seen her do this with somebody else on that show.
- 26:49Tony Dandridge: We had nothing to do with me.
- 26:50Tony Dandridge: I've seen it.
- 26:52Carmen Lezeth: Tony, your denial is like incredible.
- 26:55Tony Dandridge: I just told you the truth.
- 26:57Tony Dandridge: You don't remember it.
- 26:58Tony Dandridge: You don't remember it.
- 26:59Tony Dandridge: I saw it, I've seen it.
- 27:01Carmen Lezeth: I saw it before too, because she was mad at what's his name and he was being me.
- 27:05Carmen Lezeth: That's not what we're talking about.
- 27:06Carmen Lezeth: This is a whole other thing.
- 27:07Carmen Lezeth: This is a whole other thing, but that's my thing.
- 27:09Tony Dandridge: You always talk about this.
- 27:10Tony Dandridge: Right now, I'm telling you, I've seen the pattern with people no-transcript.
- 27:14Tony Dandridge: This is a social media.
- 27:14Carmen Lezeth: So you're saying Helen does this on other shows all the time, so she has a problem.
- 27:19Tony Dandridge: No, I've seen it nicely all the time.
- 27:20Tony Dandridge: No, no, no, no.
- 27:23Carmen Lezeth: No, because you can't just admit that she has a problem.
- 27:26Carmen Lezeth: Instead, you want to make it a lot of people.
- 27:28Tony Dandridge: I just said.
- 27:29Tony Dandridge: I've told her about this more than once.
- 27:31Tony Dandridge: I didn't say that.
- 27:34Carmen Lezeth: Rick, we need to.
- 27:35Tony Dandridge: That's what I'm trying to do.
- 27:36Tony Dandridge: No.
- 27:36Rick Costa: I know I know, I know.
- 27:39Carmen Lezeth: No, I mean, you're so right.
- 27:41Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean.
- 27:42Carmen Lezeth: You know what?
- 27:42Carmen Lezeth: Helen Rick is being quiet because you're a fucking idiot and you like to harass people and fucking send text messages to people to hurt them.
- 27:52Carmen Lezeth: And you want attention, bitch, I'm going to give you motherfucking attention.
- 27:56Carmen Lezeth: You are so evil.
- 27:58Carmen Lezeth: You have me feeling bad for someone else I hated Like.
- 28:04Carmen Lezeth: Now I realize why he went after you because you're fucking ridiculous girl.
- 28:09Carmen Lezeth: You need therapy.
- 28:11Carmen Lezeth: You need some help, sister, you need to get some help.
- 28:15Carmen Lezeth: You are out of your fucking mind.
- 28:17Carmen Lezeth: You're out of your mind to be following people who don't want to talk to you.
- 28:23Carmen Lezeth: I've blocked you on everything, bitch, blocked you on everything, and you still are trying to sit here and have a fight with people, and you know what.
- 28:35Carmen Lezeth: I'm happy because, in a way, I've needed to say this to you.
- 28:37Carmen Lezeth: I wasn't going to fucking text you and email you and all the other shit that you do to people.
- 28:42Carmen Lezeth: If you lived across the fucking street, I'd walk across the fucking street and tell you because you are a nasty human being, nasty human being, and I wish that you get all the help and whatever love it is that you're missing in your life.
- 28:57Carmen Lezeth: I hope you receive it, honey, because you need it.
- 29:00Carmen Lezeth: You need someone to really love you, to understand what it is to have real friendships and to have real good people in your life, because that's what you're missing, baby.
- 29:10Carmen Lezeth: You missing really good friendships, and I'm going to tell you right now I would have been a good friend to you, but you're so stupid you're missed out.
- 29:19Carmen Lezeth: I hope, helen, that you get whatever help you need, because you really do need it.
- 29:23Carmen Lezeth: You need help.
- 29:25Carmen Lezeth: I cannot say it anymore.
- 29:27Carmen Lezeth: Andrea said it to you, we all said it to you.
- 29:30Carmen Lezeth: You need to get some real motherfucking help, and your denial and your name call isn't going to help you.
- 29:36Carmen Lezeth: You can call me whatever you want.
- 29:37Carmen Lezeth: No one's going to believe you Nobody, nobody.
- 29:41Carmen Lezeth: Ash says people are allowed to have an opinion, but going into people's lives to create drama doesn't put light on this.
- 29:48Carmen Lezeth: It just makes the instigator look immature.
- 29:51Tony Dandridge: Chris let me respond.
- 29:53Carmen Lezeth: It's a confirmation to him.
- 29:56Carmen Lezeth: He likes that attention.
- 29:57Carmen Lezeth: He needs to feel empty, gap inside himself, confirmation to feel okay.
- 30:01Carmen Lezeth: Are you, chris?
- 30:02Carmen Lezeth: Are you talking about Tony?
- 30:03Carmen Lezeth: She told my mix.
- 30:04Carmen Lezeth: That's interesting, I can respond to that.
- 30:06Tony Dandridge: I can respond to that.
- 30:08Carmen Lezeth: I don't know if she's talking about you, but it sounds like she is talking about you.
- 30:12Tony Dandridge: People are allowed to have an opinion, but going into people's lives to create drama doesn't put light on this situation.
- 30:16Tony Dandridge: It just makes the instigator look immature.
- 30:18Tony Dandridge: Ash, paul, that's why you shouldn't go up there and speak like this on social media.
- 30:22Tony Dandridge: I addressed this on a lot of occasion and this one of the things I just tried to do when I was on the other platform.
- 30:27Tony Dandridge: People told me to stop doing it because it wasn't working.
- 30:29Tony Dandridge: I have tried to stop people from going on people's broadcasts and doing this.
- 30:33Tony Dandridge: They don't damn stop.
- 30:34Tony Dandridge: They do not.
- 30:35Tony Dandridge: They want to do what people think.
- 30:36Tony Dandridge: They could, just say what they want to say, do what they want to do, speak what they want to speak, and they don't care who it is or when they do it.
- 30:41Tony Dandridge: That's a problem to me.
- 30:42Tony Dandridge: I want to respond to Chris.
- 30:44Tony Dandridge: It's not about what you need to feel content in your own life.
- 30:49Tony Dandridge: Chris, I'll be honest with you.
- 30:52Tony Dandridge: I have content in my own life off of the internet, in all honesty and I'm not being funny, I'm not being sarcastic, I'm not being arrogant there are a lot of people I've known in my life before I came on the internet.
- 31:02Tony Dandridge: A lot of people.
- 31:04Tony Dandridge: I come up here for fun and recreation.
- 31:06Tony Dandridge: I come up here to enjoy myself.
- 31:07Tony Dandridge: I come up here to have conversation with folks and to not be a stagatory in the conversation.
- 31:12Tony Dandridge: If people don't notice anything on social media, people come into conversations just to start a damn party.
- 31:18Tony Dandridge: What's up, tory?
- 31:19Tony Dandridge: How you doing?
- 31:19Tony Dandridge: Ash?
- 31:21Tony Dandridge: I know where you're coming from.
- 31:21Tony Dandridge: You're good.
- 31:22Tony Dandridge: I'm going to be honest with you about that, chris.
- 31:24Tony Dandridge: Even when I've tried to end things with people or disassociate myself with people, a lot of of us do still stay linked for some of the decent conversations that we have had.
- 31:32Tony Dandridge: Some of the stuff like this happens just towards everything off, just like what Carmen's feeling right now.
- 31:36Tony Dandridge: I don't go with the people's broadcasts doing this.
- 31:40Carmen Lezeth: I do not, I do not.
- 31:42Rick Costa: If I don't like somebody, I just don't go on their broadcast.
- 31:46Tony Dandridge: It's so weird.
- 31:46Tony Dandridge: The kicker is it is so hard.
- 31:48Tony Dandridge: It is so hard for some of these want to be grown folks to not go into a conversation without starting shit or saying some shit.
- 31:55Tony Dandridge: It's hard for people to do that.
- 31:57Tony Dandridge: All you got to do is watch, and I watch a lot of people's broadcasts.
- 32:00Tony Dandridge: I've been watching people's broadcasts for the past three years myself, and not just talking about people that I know, people that I've known, who they know.
- 32:09Tony Dandridge: I'll watch and I'll listen.
- 32:10Tony Dandridge: All you got to do is pay attention to a bunch of these conversations.
- 32:12Tony Dandridge: Just watch how we twist.
- 32:13Tony Dandridge: People can't have decent conversations without starting a damn argument.
- 32:18Tony Dandridge: It's mind blowing to me.
- 32:20Tony Dandridge: Leave it to the topic, Leave it to the conversation.
- 32:22Tony Dandridge: Move on from that instead of being a stagatory in your words or in your comments.
- 32:26Tony Dandridge: It's not that hard to me, but for other people it is.
- 32:29Carmen Lezeth: I think people enjoy being able to be behind their keyboard and being nasty.
- 32:34Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean, because there's no real responsibility.
- 32:36Carmen Lezeth: None of these motherfucking people would ever say any of this shit to my face.
- 32:42Carmen Lezeth: That's what I always think about.
- 32:43Carmen Lezeth: Would that person ever say shit to my face?
- 32:46Carmen Lezeth: They wouldn't.
- 32:47Carmen Lezeth: They wouldn't Because my hood shit would come out.
- 32:50Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean.
- 32:51Carmen Lezeth: But that's what trolling is, this weird, strange power behind a keyboard to be a nasty human being.
- 32:59Carmen Lezeth: If I don't like what somebody's saying and somebody's like it's happened on Ted's show, right, ted, or whatever, they'll start talking about something and I'm like I'm out, I just, I just leave, I don't even say I'm leaving because I'm mad or I don't like it.
- 33:12Carmen Lezeth: I'm just, I'm out, I'm out.
- 33:15Tony Dandridge: I just don't want you to know If I don't like the show.
- 33:17Tony Dandridge: I don't want you to know If I don't like it, I don't even comment on it.
- 33:19Tony Dandridge: But people can't do that.
- 33:20Tony Dandridge: They cannot do that.
- 33:24Carmen Lezeth: They don't entertain crazy encounters.
- 33:26Carmen Lezeth: No, then don't entertain.
- 33:28Carmen Lezeth: You're right, chris.
- 33:29Carmen Lezeth: Ashley the greed if I don't like someone, I don't want to be around them and I'm not going to demean myself by acting up.
- 33:34Carmen Lezeth: Thank you, thank you, go ahead, girl.
- 33:38Carmen Lezeth: Melanie said does anyone watch TV?
- 33:39Carmen Lezeth: Not like the program and yell at the TV instead of changing the channel?
- 33:42Carmen Lezeth: Just curious, melanie, that was good.
- 33:44Carmen Lezeth: Just change the channel right Instead of screaming.
- 33:46Carmen Lezeth: I like that, it's actually really good.
- 33:56Carmen Lezeth: Chris just said just food for thought.
- 33:57Carmen Lezeth: Slow down, pray to God for clarity.
- 34:00Carmen Lezeth: You can eliminate some of this.
- 34:01Carmen Lezeth: No, you're absolutely right.
- 34:02Carmen Lezeth: You know what I got upset and I think it's because it's been a long time coming.
- 34:07Carmen Lezeth: What's been really good is that person hasn't been coming on my show.
- 34:11Carmen Lezeth: I'm sure they've been watching it because you know this is what some weird people do.
- 34:16Carmen Lezeth: But you know it's been fine.
- 34:18Carmen Lezeth: I think this was kind of I had to say what I had to say.
- 34:21Carmen Lezeth: I'm kind of glad I did Like I got it out of my system.
- 34:23Carmen Lezeth: But you're absolutely right, I wish I was kind of bigger than that ignoring, but it's really hard to like.
- 34:31Carmen Lezeth: Either I'm going to ignore everyone in the chat or I'm going to be talking to everybody in the chat, right?
- 34:38Carmen Lezeth: And Rick did a really good job of teaching me to talk to people in the chat, so I kind of had to address that.
- 34:46Carmen Lezeth: I have people blocked all over on all my things, so I guess that person was able to come on because Tony was connected to that.
- 34:56Tony Dandridge: I have my, I have my channels on, so that's my fault.
- 34:58Tony Dandridge: So I can apologize to everybody else.
- 34:59Tony Dandridge: It's not your fault, I will tell you, I got you.
- 35:01Tony Dandridge: Let me tell you this you can take the channel, the screen, so you ain't got to see it like that, and it can be backstage and not up in front of everybody.
- 35:09Carmen Lezeth: No, because I want to have my channel.
- 35:12Tony Dandridge: That's why I used to keep mine on.
- 35:13Tony Dandridge: I agree, that's why I used to keep mine on.
- 35:16Carmen Lezeth: I'm not going to do that.
- 35:17Carmen Lezeth: All these other good people are giving me spirit at Chris and Ash and Melanie, and there were a couple of other people who are giving like beautiful, uplifting things that are reminding me, that are keeping me in a better space, and Cynthia you know what I mean.
- 35:32Carmen Lezeth: So, no, we have a lot.
- 35:34Carmen Lezeth: This is the highest See swearing and yelling.
- 35:36Carmen Lezeth: You can't do so many viewers.
- 35:42Rick Costa: And I can't get the Maya Angelou quote out of my head when someone shows you who they are.
- 35:50Carmen Lezeth: Believe them.
- 35:51Carmen Lezeth: Believe them, baby, when someone shows you who they are.
- 35:55Carmen Lezeth: Believe them the demo plays on your luck.
- 35:58Carmen Lezeth: Whatever it is, he will march ahead, Just know.
- 36:01Tony Dandridge: I try to behave on Carmen's show for everybody.
- 36:03Tony Dandridge: For those that don't know, I do try to behave up here, but I had to go get my beer.
- 36:08Carmen Lezeth: You can have your beer, because I want a beer right now too.
- 36:11Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 36:11Carmen Lezeth: It's okay with you drinking.
- 36:14Carmen Lezeth: What wasn't good with Tony's to do back in the day was he would be full.
- 36:19Carmen Lezeth: He would eat like fried chicken there it is and then he'd be like flossing.
- 36:24Carmen Lezeth: And I was like okay, and he'd be on other people's show.
- 36:27Carmen Lezeth: So it was fine.
- 36:28Carmen Lezeth: But I was like please don't, please don't, yes you did.
- 36:32Rick Costa: That's what I wanted to award, though.
- 36:35Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, but we got you.
- 36:36Carmen Lezeth: You save girl, you save.
- 36:37Carmen Lezeth: Look at so much Cheers.
- 36:39Carmen Lezeth: I'm not being angry because I think I had a right to be angry.
- 36:45Carmen Lezeth: I do apologize for anyone's ears who might have not liked some of the verbiage I used when I come from.
- 36:53Carmen Lezeth: So yes.
- 36:54Carmen Lezeth: Thank you for all of you who have been here.
- 36:58Tony Dandridge: Maybe we'll get a sponsorship and I could stay on the show, somebody.
- 37:00Tony Dandridge: All about enjoy.
- 37:08Rick Costa: Hornets nest.
- 37:09Rick Costa: What happens?
- 37:10Rick Costa: Don't be poking on hornets nest if you don't want.
- 37:15Tony Dandridge: I do want to throw this out there for people in social media you got to stay away from being a staggatorean conversations.
- 37:21Tony Dandridge: I really do try my best to live that way.
- 37:24Tony Dandridge: When I do broadcast, it's crazy as I am, as reckless as I am, and even with the people that abroad cancer I do that.
- 37:30Tony Dandridge: Try to come on there and being a staggatorean.
- 37:32Tony Dandridge: What you want to do is be contributory to the conversation Over in staggatory to a conversation.
- 37:37Tony Dandridge: If you remember that, you'll see social media in a much better life and how it is being still type, especially on the news in the people's office.
- 37:45Carmen Lezeth: Melannie said, there is someone who doesn't want me, doesn't want me following them, yet they follow me on another point, which is I really use Hmm, exactly see me.
- 37:54Tony Dandridge: All about the guys.
- 38:00Carmen Lezeth: Don't encourage him.
- 38:01Carmen Lezeth: Look, here's a thing.
- 38:05Carmen Lezeth: I think it was Chris, he said it earlier.
- 38:07Carmen Lezeth: Look at, there's always gonna be trolls.
- 38:09Carmen Lezeth: That's not what this.
- 38:10Carmen Lezeth: I want to be really clear.
- 38:12Carmen Lezeth: This is not some random troll.
- 38:15Carmen Lezeth: This is a long-standing, ridiculous situation with someone who is connected to Tony and they've never been able to come on the show because I blocked them a long time ago and they hate me because I told them what I thought about their relation, her relationship with Tony, whatever.
- 38:36Carmen Lezeth: So this isn't just a troll.
- 38:39Carmen Lezeth: This is someone who you know, if anything, you know, if you're religious at all, whatever you believe in.
- 38:45Carmen Lezeth: I'm sending them joy and hope.
- 38:47Carmen Lezeth: I mean I'm not cussed around because she needed to be cussed out and I needed to let that out, but I still praying for her.
- 38:54Carmen Lezeth: I still wish her the well.
- 38:55Carmen Lezeth: I told I, rick, have I ever once wished ill will on that woman?
- 39:00Carmen Lezeth: Never.
- 39:00Carmen Lezeth: I always want her to find her way and To figure it out.
- 39:05Carmen Lezeth: And the anger towards me?
- 39:07Carmen Lezeth: Here's the irony the anger she has towards me and Andrea, which somehow Andrea was thrown into this, by the way and Ray, who doesn't know her from a hole in the wall.
- 39:15Carmen Lezeth: But the reason why she's angry is we told her a truth that she didn't want to hear, but she asked us about it.
- 39:22Carmen Lezeth: So we said the truth, and it's been months.
- 39:26Carmen Lezeth: It's been when was it, rick March?
- 39:30Rick Costa: It's been a while yeah.
- 39:31Carmen Lezeth: I haven't talked to her since, but she ain't.
- 39:33Carmen Lezeth: You know.
- 39:36Carmen Lezeth: This is someone who needs prayers and love and and, and, and joy, and Good juju or whatever you call it.
- 39:43Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean like good, beautiful spirits.
- 39:45Carmen Lezeth: I wish her well, whatever.
- 39:56Rick Costa: But I guarantee you, when you get Out of your life, your life is gonna be so much better, and I had to learn that the hard way.
- 40:03Carmen Lezeth: Oh, yes, you did.
- 40:04Carmen Lezeth: I'm glad you learned it though.
- 40:06Rick Costa: So yeah.
- 40:08Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, oh my god, I'm already exhausted.
- 40:10Carmen Lezeth: Look at we wasted 50.
- 40:11Rick Costa: I'm trying to bring what a handle this better.
- 40:14Carmen Lezeth: Who.
- 40:15Rick Costa: Chandler, bring Chandler bang.
- 40:16Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, I, you know, I didn't really want.
- 40:18Carmen Lezeth: Oh my god, I have too many text messages.
- 40:25Rick Costa: Girl call me late explain.
- 40:29Carmen Lezeth: Wait, you know it's a funny is I had an agent reach out to me while I was away, which is very interesting.
- 40:35Carmen Lezeth: So I hope he's not watching the show, but I have a feeling he is watching the show because he was interested in and having a conversation with me, and so in my head a part of me is like so well, now you can see the full flavor of All About the Joy, all the side.
- 40:57Rick Costa: I think Chandler Chandler would have been like go away.
- 41:01Carmen Lezeth: I Didn't.
- 41:06Carmen Lezeth: You know, I did not.
- 41:20Carmen Lezeth: Not regularly, but I saw a lot of episodes, so I mean yeah, I mean I, of course, we all know who friends are or whatever, and I think what's really cool is the newer generation, like my, my niece, Juliana.
- 41:31Carmen Lezeth: She's obsessed with friends.
- 41:33Carmen Lezeth: So, you know, 15 years old, they all love that show.
- 41:36Carmen Lezeth: And, Cynthia, I knew you would love that show.
- 41:38Carmen Lezeth: It's not that I didn't love this show, I just.
- 41:40Carmen Lezeth: I think I was more of a Seinfeld person, you know, but it was always must see what was.
- 41:45Carmen Lezeth: It was like Thursday nights or something.
- 41:49Tony Dandridge: And I was going to work doing those hours on.
- 41:51Tony Dandridge: During the 90s I was at work.
- 41:52Carmen Lezeth: Oh, you worked at night back then.
- 41:54Carmen Lezeth: Wow, is that when you were in the military?
- 41:57Tony Dandridge: When I started in the military, when I used to work at the door track in Alabama we always work like a swing schedule it was over like two-thirds of the bin that right right, right right.
- 42:04Tony Dandridge: So I was always working.
- 42:06Tony Dandridge: That was Sunday, and Thursday was my night off, and Friday, saturday for the busy nights.
- 42:11Carmen Lezeth: So I think the reason why people this is just my opinion, because, you know, even I felt bad I think it's because he had so many struggles with his alcohol and drug addiction.
- 42:23Carmen Lezeth: We wanted him to win.
- 42:25Carmen Lezeth: Yes, you know what I mean Like, and I think, no matter what happened or why he passed away right when they do the talks, it doesn't matter.
- 42:33Carmen Lezeth: I think there's a part of us that always wants to see the person who's trying so hard to beat something.
- 42:40Carmen Lezeth: It's a question and so for him to pass away.
- 42:46Rick Costa: Is he was saying it was hard for him to try to watch the show because he could just look and see like, oh, I was doing alcohol, then I was doing pills.
- 42:54Rick Costa: Then by how skinny he was, by how not skinny he was, it was like wow.
- 42:58Rick Costa: But, yeah and he's only a year older than me.
- 43:03Rick Costa: That's the part that freaks me out.
- 43:04Rick Costa: When somebody guys close to my age, I'm like whoa.
- 43:07Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, I just felt bad.
- 43:08Carmen Lezeth: I was shocked at how many people like I think, what what Tony just said?
- 43:12Carmen Lezeth: I felt bad, that people were so, so many people were impacted by his death, but it's.
- 43:18Rick Costa: International like.
- 43:19Carmen Lezeth: I didn't know that.
- 43:21Rick Costa: I watched the movie with him and Selma Hayek fools rush in it.
- 43:24Rick Costa: Oh yeah, yeah, that was a good movie.
- 43:27Carmen Lezeth: That's a good one.
- 43:28Carmen Lezeth: That's a cute romantic comedy.
- 43:31Tony Dandridge: Anyway, I didn't feel the impact everybody else did, but I understand this arresting piece to heaven, all honesty.
- 43:36Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, is there any addiction that?
- 43:41Carmen Lezeth: Do any of you have an addiction that you want to share, like I have an addiction to I won't lie chocolate cake.
- 43:48Carmen Lezeth: Okay, I don't mean an addiction like him, but I was just saying like it was so interesting, I started thinking about all the things.
- 43:57Carmen Lezeth: Like I'm not, I don't have a very Addictive personality, but I can't resist certain things, is there something you have an addiction to, in a light-hearted way, you know?
- 44:06Rick Costa: I have a hard time.
- 44:08Rick Costa: Cookies for me.
- 44:10Carmen Lezeth: Chocolate really from a certain place, or any chocolate chip cookie any I mean I don't matter.
- 44:16Carmen Lezeth: Someone said to me do you prefer cupcakes or slice?
- 44:21Rick Costa: I'm like it doesn't matter as long as the word cake is in there, we're good there, all the matters.
- 44:26Carmen Lezeth: What were you saying?
- 44:27Carmen Lezeth: One, two, three, four, what are your addictions?
- 44:30Tony Dandridge: Money, food, sex, smoking, wait, all travel it yes.
- 44:35Carmen Lezeth: Money.
- 44:35Carmen Lezeth: You're addicted to money.
- 44:37Tony Dandridge: I don't like being broke.
- 44:38Tony Dandridge: I've been broken more than one occasion.
- 44:40Tony Dandridge: It is, it's.
- 44:43Tony Dandridge: It's when you don't worry about it and you have a situation where you did it and nobody will help you.
- 44:48Tony Dandridge: It would change you, so for me, I got Go make money.
- 44:51Carmen Lezeth: Okay.
- 44:52Tony Dandridge: Even when I'm at right now, I'm at a conference.
- 44:54Tony Dandridge: I'm at a conference for the union on my job and and it's kind of covered I wasn't going to come.
- 45:00Tony Dandridge: I wasn't gonna be able to come if it wasn't covered.
- 45:03Tony Dandridge: So I'm up here, we're teaching each other, we're helping each other.
- 45:05Tony Dandridge: This is actually fun.
- 45:07Tony Dandridge: When I go to work, I normally work overtime.
- 45:09Tony Dandridge: I've had a lot of emergencies in my life to where the first thing people would tell you is you should have planned better or you should have saved up more.
- 45:15Tony Dandridge: So my focus and I will say it's like an addiction.
- 45:18Tony Dandridge: You got to focus on that.
- 45:20Tony Dandridge: Now, if I'm wrong on that aspect, let me go ahead and throw out there.
- 45:22Tony Dandridge: I got a heavy addiction to sugar.
- 45:24Tony Dandridge: I will eat any and every type of candy Well, I ain't gonna say any and every type, but I love my hot tamales, my Mike and Iks, my red hot, my lemon heads, cherry heads the apple heads, the cherry ones.
- 45:35Carmen Lezeth: When he said hot tamales, I didn't think he meant the candy.
- 45:37Rick Costa: Yeah, I was taking a second to say that.
- 45:38Rick Costa: I got confused.
- 45:40Carmen Lezeth: Confusion.
- 45:41Carmen Lezeth: You look at that.
- 45:42Rick Costa: You love Halloween, then Halloween's your favorite.
- 45:45Tony Dandridge: When I get the candy out at the door.
- 45:46Tony Dandridge: I will swap candy with the kids.
- 45:49Tony Dandridge: They'll be like trick or treat.
- 45:50Tony Dandridge: I'm like bitch, I'm looking for this.
- 45:51Rick Costa: This is what I got.

- 46:25Carmen Lezeth: So that's cool.
- 46:27Carmen Lezeth: Chris said sugar.
- 46:28Carmen Lezeth: I did that for a few years.
- 46:30Carmen Lezeth: I'm like oh, you quit sugar, that's hard.
- 46:33Carmen Lezeth: Quitting sugar is hard.
- 46:34Tony Dandridge: I actually did a fast on myself one year for Lent and because I'm one of these Catholic, so we do Lent, I quit every sugar habit I had.
- 46:45Tony Dandridge: I mean it's candy gum, tea, sweet foods, cold cereal.
- 46:48Tony Dandridge: I just didn't do it for 45 days.
- 46:51Rick Costa: When I was sick when I was sick last week I had no appetite, and when I don't have an appetite, I just simply won't eat.
- 46:56Rick Costa: I didn't eat for five days and I lost 10 pounds.
- 47:00Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, but that's not good way to lose weight.
- 47:01Carmen Lezeth: Oh, I know, I know that that's a bad thing, being sick and losing weight is not a wish for anybody.
- 47:09Rick Costa: Yeah, I don't even try to.
- 47:11Carmen Lezeth: I don't try to eliminate anything Like.
- 47:15Carmen Lezeth: I'm never gonna not eat sugar.
- 47:16Carmen Lezeth: I can't even think about that.
- 47:19Tony Dandridge: Take a break, it'll help you.
- 47:20Tony Dandridge: It will do something.
- 47:21Tony Dandridge: When I did a detox, the first thing- I've never done a diet in my life.
- 47:24Tony Dandridge: I know, but if you ever do a detox, one of the first thing they'll tell you is avoid sugar.
- 47:29Tony Dandridge: It's five different types of sugar.
- 47:30Tony Dandridge: I thought it was only four.
- 47:31Tony Dandridge: I didn't even know there's five different types of sugar.
- 47:34Tony Dandridge: I was like okay.
- 47:35Carmen Lezeth: The only time I stopped eating something was when I had to have the first colonoscopy.
- 47:39Carmen Lezeth: That was the only time I ever did anything like where you have to-.
- 47:43Tony Dandridge: Save that conversation I had to have a lot to eat.
- 47:45Tony Dandridge: I know I'm just saying, but I don't have a thing, One of the worst times, because I couldn't eat like I wanted to.
- 47:51Tony Dandridge: I was losing my mind.
- 47:53Rick Costa: We were all cracking on Tony.
- 47:55Rick Costa: I remember that.
- 47:58Carmen Lezeth: Well, I don't remember this.
- 47:59Carmen Lezeth: He did it on Haps.
- 48:01Rick Costa: They must have been on Haps, yeah.
- 48:03Tony Dandridge: Really, I think we might have been on Haps.
- 48:04Tony Dandridge: Yeah, I was on going through it and they were like what's going on?
- 48:08Tony Dandridge: I said I can't eat.
- 48:08Tony Dandridge: They told me don't go to work.
- 48:10Tony Dandridge: I had this big inch jug full of that fluid.
- 48:13Tony Dandridge: I'm like okay, they said.
- 48:14Tony Dandridge: I said should I go to work?
- 48:15Tony Dandridge: They said no, don't go to work.
- 48:16Tony Dandridge: I said okay.
- 48:16Tony Dandridge: So I'm sitting here thinking I'll be all right.
- 48:20Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, no, it is, you are.
- 48:22Tony Dandridge: I actually told them.
- 48:23Tony Dandridge: I'm so mad that, as much as I was in the bathroom, I didn't leave you two days later with a body like Captain America.
- 48:31Tony Dandridge: I said this is bullshit, ain't no way to have a body like that for this much, and I don't have a six-pack.
- 48:36Tony Dandridge: Looking like Lex Luga, I was like this is I was pissed, but I couldn't, and all you could do was drink that fluid.
- 48:42Tony Dandridge: So then I finally did have that.
- 48:43Tony Dandridge: I'm gonna tell you this story.
- 48:44Tony Dandridge: This is gonna be funny, I don't care.
- 48:46Tony Dandridge: I went to the doctor and I'm sitting here like waiting over there, and the girl said you have no idea.
- 48:52Tony Dandridge: So they told me to put the road bar.
- 48:54Tony Dandridge: I'm already mad.
- 48:55Tony Dandridge: I got to wear a robe, cause everybody know where the hospital road is.
- 48:57Tony Dandridge: It's open in the back and I told them y'all better hurry up, because I'm only I'm clenching and I don't know how long this is gonna be, for you gotta get one of them absorbing pads over there.
- 49:06Tony Dandridge: You better get one of them absorbing pads over there, because when I go to sleep I won't be tense, you'll be fine, I'll worry about it.
- 49:14Tony Dandridge: So I'm laying on the table and I'm looking around.
- 49:16Tony Dandridge: Right, that is it.
- 49:17Tony Dandridge: What's wrong with you?
- 49:18Tony Dandridge: I said I'm counting all you motherfuckers, cause if I wake up and I don't feel right, I want to know who the hell I got to go.
- 49:23Carmen Lezeth: Who's ass do I have to pick Like literally?
- 49:29Rick Costa: Chris said it's hard but it was weird.
- 49:31Carmen Lezeth: I started it due to another indulgement that I stopped.
- 49:33Carmen Lezeth: I shifted, but then I realized and stopped the alternative.
- 49:36Carmen Lezeth: No listen, I propped to you on the sugar thing.
- 49:40Carmen Lezeth: I have other friends who've stopped sugar and dairy, whatever.
- 49:43Carmen Lezeth: I've just never done any of the things and now that I'm older I'm like I'm not gonna, I'm never gonna do it unless a doctor tells me this movie called what to health.
- 49:53Tony Dandridge: I stopped drinking milk after watching what to health.
- 49:56Carmen Lezeth: I don't.
- 49:56Carmen Lezeth: I'm not a big milk drinker.
- 49:58Carmen Lezeth: I drink almond milk.
- 49:59Carmen Lezeth: I used to be Like in my cereal, whatever, but I don't really.
- 50:01Carmen Lezeth: I've never been a big milk person.
- 50:03Carmen Lezeth: Although, don't give me fake ice cream, Like I'm gonna eat ice cream.
- 50:06Carmen Lezeth: I want regular ice cream.
- 50:07Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean, but I don't want to be good.
- 50:09Carmen Lezeth: Right, right right.
- 50:10Rick Costa: I remember the question now, Is there anything?
- 50:12Rick Costa: Any new update as far as Sagaftra?
- 50:16Carmen Lezeth: They're still negotiating.
- 50:17Carmen Lezeth: They had a really good conversation, so we get notifications every day from Fran Dresser and from the SAG committee telling us where they're at.
- 50:27Carmen Lezeth: So they still haven't finalized anything, but hopefully they're gonna come.
- 50:32Carmen Lezeth: I feel like it's close.
- 50:33Carmen Lezeth: It seems like the sticking conversation right now is about AI.
- 50:38Carmen Lezeth: That's what my gut says and the stuff that I was reading.
- 50:41Carmen Lezeth: But I feel like we're so close and I really hope that the strike is over with.
- 50:46Carmen Lezeth: So many people have been out of work.
- 50:48Carmen Lezeth: It's not just the actors but, yes, all of these actors have been out of work, but it's all the crews and all the producers and it goes all the way down.
- 50:56Carmen Lezeth: It hits marketing, it hits all the restaurants when you go film somewhere.
- 51:00Carmen Lezeth: So it really is, I think, starting to affect people.
- 51:03Carmen Lezeth: So I hope you know, woo-hoo, hope and pray that this happens, hopefully soon.
- 51:11Carmen Lezeth: I'm feeling it.
- 51:13Carmen Lezeth: I'm feeling it.
- 51:13Carmen Lezeth: I want it to be.
- 51:14Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean?
- 51:15Carmen Lezeth: I wanted to read one thing that I got was interesting because and then we're gonna stop it.
- 51:20Carmen Lezeth: So I read this in the paper this morning On Sunday, gary Hobish, 70, collapsed during a weekly swing dance gathering in Golden Gate Park here in Northern California.
- 51:33Carmen Lezeth: His friend, tim O'Brien, raced to the nearby D Young Museum in search of a defibrillator, pleading with a staff member to let him use the lifesaving device.
- 51:44Carmen Lezeth: The staffer checked with his boss and delivered a firm answer the defibrillator was not to leave the building.
- 51:54Carmen Lezeth: Mr O'Brien returned empty-handed and Mr Hobish died.
- 51:59Carmen Lezeth: So this museum is getting a lot of backlash.
- 52:04Carmen Lezeth: It's called D Young Museum.
- 52:07Rick Costa: It's about to become the old museum, Old museum, old ass museum right.
- 52:11Carmen Lezeth: I was shocked that the staff person went and asked somebody if they could use it Like don't you think that's weird?
- 52:19Carmen Lezeth: But I read that because I think it's kind of a microcosm of what I think our country is in right now.
- 52:25Carmen Lezeth: We're in a really weird place, but imagine your grandfather, your father, your brother, whatever it is, 70 years old, died because somebody wouldn't help him.
- 52:40Rick Costa: Yeah, isn't that weird, that's true.
- 52:43Rick Costa: But if the owner was offsite they would have been like, yeah, go ahead.
- 52:47Carmen Lezeth: It doesn't even make any sense to me.
- 52:49Carmen Lezeth: Was the staff person young and didn't know?
- 52:51Carmen Lezeth: To me it doesn't matter.
- 52:52Carmen Lezeth: I don't know how young could you be working at a museum?
- 52:55Carmen Lezeth: Let's say you're 18.
- 52:57Carmen Lezeth: Let's just.
- 52:57Carmen Lezeth: I'm sure they weren't, but let's say you're 18.
- 52:59Carmen Lezeth: Have we gotten to a place in our lives that someone is asking for a defibrillator?
- 53:06Carmen Lezeth: That means somebody is having a heart moment.
- 53:11Carmen Lezeth: They are about to die, Like, I don't care how old you are, you save a person's life.
- 53:17Carmen Lezeth: Yes, Chris, I think we're in a bad place and I think I wanted to read that.
- 53:23Carmen Lezeth: To bring that up.
- 53:24Tony Dandridge: Chris is correct.
- 53:25Tony Dandridge: Now, the thing with the defibrillators is you have to be certified to use them.
- 53:30Carmen Lezeth: No, the whole point of the defibrillator is that they're easy enough to help anyone, so they're always around.
- 53:36Tony Dandridge: You gotta be certified to use them.
- 53:37Tony Dandridge: But you gotta be certified to use them.
- 53:39Tony Dandridge: I gotta get training on the area.
- 53:40Carmen Lezeth: If somebody came to me and asked for a defibrillator.
- 53:43Carmen Lezeth: I would give it to them to try to help.
- 53:45Tony Dandridge: Because what's the worst?
- 53:46Carmen Lezeth: thing that can happen the person could die.
- 53:49Rick Costa: So I don't have to be in a state Okay.
- 53:52Carmen Lezeth: But Tony, do you see?
- 53:53Carmen Lezeth: Okay?
- 53:54Carmen Lezeth: But here's my point.
- 53:55Carmen Lezeth: You're doing exactly what I'm afraid of.
- 53:58Carmen Lezeth: I don't wanna get sued, so I'm not gonna try to help someone.
- 54:02Tony Dandridge: I'm with you.
- 54:03Tony Dandridge: You can do CPR without the defibrillator.
- 54:06Carmen Lezeth: No, the reason why we have a defibrillator is so that we can try to help someone who's having a heart issue.
- 54:10Carmen Lezeth: That's the whole point of having them around.
- 54:12Tony Dandridge: I understand.
- 54:14Carmen Lezeth: They're everywhere.
- 54:15Carmen Lezeth: You know what I mean.
- 54:16Carmen Lezeth: Like that's the whole point.
- 54:17Carmen Lezeth: Should you know how to use one?
- 54:18Carmen Lezeth: Yes, should you?
- 54:19Carmen Lezeth: Right, the person went to ask for one because he knew his friend was dying.
- 54:24Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, here's my thing.
- 54:27Rick Costa: If I get fired for saving somebody's life, then fire me.
- 54:30Carmen Lezeth: Yeah, exactly, if I'm having a heart issue or you think I'm dying, I want you to do everything you can to try to save me.
- 54:38Carmen Lezeth: Okay, and I'll put it out there in public.
- 54:40Carmen Lezeth: I will not sue you if I die.
- 54:42Rick Costa: I don't know.
- 54:43Rick Costa: We have it on record.
- 54:47Carmen Lezeth: We have it on record.
- 54:47Carmen Lezeth: Now I just think we're in a bad place.
- 54:51Carmen Lezeth: I remember when we valued life so much that you wouldn't question something or we wouldn't even be having an argument.
- 55:00Carmen Lezeth: Can you?
- 55:00Carmen Lezeth: Could you have to?
- 55:02Carmen Lezeth: Don't you have to be certified?
- 55:03Carmen Lezeth: The whole reason why defibrillators are around us because they're so easy to use.
- 55:07Carmen Lezeth: Right?
- 55:08Carmen Lezeth: And, by the way, doing CPR is very different now than when we were growing up, where you were breathing in people's mouths, Like I don't think people have been certified in a long time.
- 55:17Carmen Lezeth: You don't do that anymore, right?
- 55:19Carmen Lezeth: You just do the compressions on the chest.
- 55:20Carmen Lezeth: You do not breathe in someone's mouth anymore.
- 55:23Carmen Lezeth: Go ahead, you don't breathe in people's mouth anymore.
- 55:28Tony Dandridge: You get a face mask thing.
- 55:29Tony Dandridge: I just had a training issue.
- 55:32Carmen Lezeth: I know, I know.
- 55:32Carmen Lezeth: But, tony, if me and you were out hanging out, do you have a face mask to put on me?
- 55:37Carmen Lezeth: That's what I'm saying.
- 55:38Rick Costa: At least we're defibrillating and don't break nobody's ribs either.
- 55:42Carmen Lezeth: Right, you don't break anybody's ribs Just watching every episode of emergency qualify me too.
- 55:47Rick Costa: Yes, I certify you right now.
- 55:50Tony Dandridge: If it does, tell me.
- 55:50Tony Dandridge: If it does.
- 55:51Carmen Lezeth: I watch emergency e-ar cold red, all of that mess traffic dog and then you see nothing else Is the emergency keeping on anymore yeah, in the old TV channel.
- 55:59Tony Dandridge: Yeah, what's that me?
- 56:00Rick Costa: too, Cynthia thank you.
- 56:02Carmen Lezeth: Cynthia works in a hospital.
- 56:03Carmen Lezeth: Correct compression only, exactly, yes, yeah, because now that you don't put your mouth to another person's mouth anymore.
- 56:11Carmen Lezeth: Anyways, I just wanted to mention that, like, I just feel like we're in a really weird place and there's so much hate and anger and I just exhibited all of mine in the beginning of this podcast, so clearly, we all have a lot of work to do with our own selves as well.
- 56:29Carmen Lezeth: I'm going to say goodnight to everyone.
- 56:31Carmen Lezeth: Can you hear us?
- 56:33Tony Dandridge: Yes, my earpods died.

- 57:04Carmen Lezeth: So that's good.
