- 6:57Speaker 3: I've been to Italy a few times, but I was
- 6:59Speaker 3: in one yeah, and I went to a gelato a
- 7:03Speaker 3: gelato shop, and the guy was asking me where part
- 7:07Speaker 3: of Italy it was from. I said, you know, said Chilia,
- 7:10Speaker 3: and and and and the Naples. He's like the Scazia though,
- 7:14Speaker 3: because because I said I was from Sicily too, and

- 7:31Speaker 3: That's where all the kings and queens went to Flori vacation.
- 7:34Speaker 3: And we were and we were invaded so many times.
- 7:36Speaker 3: That's why where the northern Italians are lighter than well,
- 7:40Speaker 3: that's why we're darka. Yeah, I mean I did my
- 7:42Speaker 3: twenty three in me. I have Turkish, I have I
- 7:45Speaker 3: have Egyptian everything, i have everything. I'm a melting pot.
- 7:50Speaker 3: I'm like maybe sixty percent Italian, all right, yeah, everything
- 7:53Speaker 3: else is just me. Do you know what? That's how
- 7:57Speaker 3: people get.
- 7:58Speaker 1: Caught by the You get caught in crimes and crimes.
- 8:01Speaker 3: That's how a lot of people have gotten caught with
- 8:04Speaker 3: the twenty three.
- 8:04Speaker 1: They say you can't use it. So my friend's a
- 8:06Speaker 1: lawyer and he's like, don't ever do He's like, because
- 8:08Speaker 1: it's the DNA stays there. It's not that I'm gonna
- 8:10Speaker 1: be this giant crook, maybe more like a white collar
- 8:13Speaker 1: crook if anything, but I don't know.

- 8:29Speaker 1: like people will attack me and I go back. That's
- 8:32Speaker 1: my favorite part. A lot of people truthfully say I'm
- 8:36Speaker 1: Puerto Rican. They're like, you're not even Italian. I'm like,
- 8:38Speaker 1: a first of all, you look so Italian, you know.
- 8:41Speaker 1: They say, I'm so, I look so stereotypical Italian. That's
- 8:45Speaker 1: not Italian. It's one of those things like yeah, I
- 8:48Speaker 1: hear it. One guy was like, where were you born?
- 8:50Speaker 1: And I'm like queens And he's like, well, where do
- 8:52Speaker 1: you live? I'm like, well, I lived in like a
- 8:54Speaker 1: zone park and he's give me an area. I'm like
- 8:56Speaker 1: eighty six and sutter. That's a lie. I'm like, okay,
- 8:59Speaker 1: that's no problem. But uh yeah, I get a lot
- 9:03Speaker 1: a lot of hate for it, so it gets rough.
- 9:05Speaker 3: But people love times you have to.
- 9:07Speaker 1: They love me.
- 9:08Speaker 2: I know.
- 9:08Speaker 3: They want to emulate us so bad. It's so funny.
- 9:11Speaker 3: I love it. It was just it's just it's funny
- 9:13Speaker 3: because every time I went, my cousins lived in California.
- 9:16Speaker 3: So you got a picture my whole family from benson Hurst,
- 9:20Speaker 3: Brooklyn picked up and went and moved into but that'st
- 9:23Speaker 3: California and move to a cattle ranch. This was years
- 9:27Speaker 3: This is right, This was like one hundred years ago.
- 9:30Speaker 3: So when I used to go there and I said,
- 9:33Speaker 3: my cousin's all they wanted to hear me say, was
- 9:35Speaker 3: my talk and talk.
- 9:36Speaker 1: I like that.
- 9:37Speaker 3: They look they wanted to hear my accent. And just
- 9:39Speaker 3: the other day I was on the phone with one
- 9:41Speaker 3: of my clients from from Georgia on there on the
- 9:44Speaker 3: show ninety Dance, and he was just mes mercy because
- 9:46Speaker 3: I just love your accent. He goes, could you just
- 9:49Speaker 3: keep please talking? I said, it's so funny because you
- 9:51Speaker 3: would think you want to hear our French accent, you
- 9:53Speaker 3: want to hear New York and but our accent is dying.
- 9:58Speaker 3: It is because everything's getting so gent. I was just
- 10:00Speaker 3: talking about this to somebody the other day. Even my kids.
- 10:03Speaker 3: You could see it in my kids because I have
- 10:05Speaker 3: a nineteen year old, a twenty four year old and
- 10:07Speaker 3: a thirty two year olds. My thirty two year old
- 10:09Speaker 3: talks like me, my middle one, she's her speech is
- 10:14Speaker 3: a lot more proper, you know, it comes out, her
- 10:16Speaker 3: comes out. And my nineteen year old too, speaks so
- 10:19Speaker 3: properly like it's she has like the little the little
- 10:23Speaker 3: Brooklyn swag, but it's still she speaks so much more
- 10:26Speaker 3: clearout like so it's like it's said that our accident.
- 10:29Speaker 1: Now, I know what we're saying. My my kids are doomed.
- 10:31Speaker 1: I say they're doing because I'm out in Long Island now.
- 10:34Speaker 1: So oh, you know, every every like Italian family, it's
- 10:37Speaker 1: like if you're born in like Brooklyn, you move this
- 10:39Speaker 1: that night, right, if you're born in Queens, you go
- 10:41Speaker 1: to Long Island. It's just like and Bronx is up
- 10:44Speaker 1: in west Chester and my kids are like, oh Connecticut. Yeah,
- 10:49Speaker 1: She's just my kids are just Long Island kids. You know.
- 10:52Speaker 1: That's it.
- 10:53Speaker 3: Like it's different to live in in in Queens and
- 10:56Speaker 3: Brooklyn it is to live out. It's kind of different completely.
- 11:00Speaker 3: Even Staten Island is sheltered.
- 11:02Speaker 1: I feel I think Staten Island is only.
- 11:04Speaker 3: A weird place. It's just so it's an odd it's
- 11:07Speaker 3: an Odd Burrow.
- 11:08Speaker 1: And it's I didn't realize how big it was huge.
- 11:10Speaker 1: So I had only been there before I started working there.
- 11:14Speaker 1: I'd only been there once and it was just to
- 11:15Speaker 1: drive through. And now I'm like, I didn't even realize
- 11:18Speaker 1: how big it is. It's hugely striking up. So weird
- 11:20Speaker 1: it is.
- 11:21Speaker 3: It's strange. It's like the Forgotten Burrow.
- 11:25Speaker 1: Yeah, it really is. There's nice houses there, but I
- 11:28Speaker 1: never live in.
- 11:29Speaker 3: Sorry my stat the front.
- 11:31Speaker 1: You don't swim there. The water is like it's like
- 11:33Speaker 1: swimming in the Hudson. It's the same thing.
- 11:35Speaker 3: No, it's but you know what's a that was originally
- 11:37Speaker 3: a garbage stop there?
- 11:38Speaker 1: I could see that, Yeah it was.
- 11:39Speaker 3: But it's listen, I think that living in other odd
- 11:44Speaker 3: the Burrow is right. Don't you agree that it's different.
- 11:46Speaker 1: Than It's totally different. I also think you grow up
- 11:48Speaker 1: a lot quicker, you do. You got to deal with
- 11:51Speaker 1: a lot of more stuff.
- 11:52Speaker 3: Yes, but you walk closer to people. I noticed that too, right.
- 11:55Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't. I mean I live next to a
- 11:57Speaker 1: park and because the.
- 11:59Speaker 3: Long you got to drive, Yeah, you can't go hang
- 12:01Speaker 3: out with your friends and they live on the same block.
- 12:03Speaker 3: The parents have to drop you want to live, to
- 12:05Speaker 3: hang out. We used to just walk everywhere. Yeah, we
- 12:08Speaker 3: would meet up at the park, we meet up at
- 12:09Speaker 3: the school yard, whatever it was. And that Now it's
- 12:12Speaker 3: not like that, and like death or in Jersey's even worse.
- 12:15Speaker 1: Yeah, it's uh, it's crazy because I feel like when
- 12:19Speaker 1: I was a kid, we used to walk. My cousins
- 12:21Speaker 1: lived close and even when I moved in Long Island,
- 12:23Speaker 1: I mean I had a little knit of friends like
- 12:24Speaker 1: on my block. But anytime I wanted to go, it
- 12:27Speaker 1: was like I had to tell my mom, like, hey,
- 12:28Speaker 1: could you drive me to like Joe's house or Rickey's
- 12:30Speaker 1: And it was like twenty to thirty minutes.
- 12:32Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 12:33Speaker 1: So, and it's like and back then my mom would
- 12:34Speaker 1: drop me off. Now like my kids are young, and
- 12:36Speaker 1: it's like the parents want to stay at your house, right,
- 12:39Speaker 1: and it's like, get the fuck out of it. I
- 12:41Speaker 1: hate it.
- 12:41Speaker 3: It's I used, I'm like, dude, just leave your kid here.
- 12:44Speaker 3: I don't want to hang out way. I was never
- 12:46Speaker 3: that mother block.
- 12:46Speaker 1: That's the worst part about having kids in my eyes.
- 12:49Speaker 3: No, no, now it's the worst. It's worse now today
- 12:52Speaker 3: they have the helicopter moms and dads. It's like even
- 12:54Speaker 3: the dads want to hang out now. Yes, I'm like, dude,
- 12:56Speaker 3: I was looking at my parents, like walk me to school.
- 13:00Speaker 3: When I was a kid, my father never, I think
- 13:02Speaker 3: he went up to my school maybe twice in my
- 13:03Speaker 3: whole entire and the whole entire.
- 13:05Speaker 1: I will say, I do take my kids. I take
- 13:07Speaker 1: my kids to school. So I live right next to
- 13:09Speaker 1: the elementary school. Well, so I walk myseff though, but
- 13:14Speaker 1: I remember, like when I was a kid, like my
- 13:16Speaker 1: dad never came up. Never, like he was working.
- 13:19Speaker 3: My Brandon has a bed.
- 13:21Speaker 1: Oh you don't go your bed. There's times I don't
- 13:23Speaker 1: pick up my son and like I'll pick them up
- 13:25Speaker 1: a week later and the teacher's like, where have you been?
- 13:27Speaker 1: And I'm like, god, I got it. I got a job.
- 13:29Speaker 1: Like I can't just like shave my kids. Pick up
- 13:32Speaker 1: my son at one o'clock every day. It's like I
- 13:35Speaker 1: have a.
- 13:35Speaker 3: Job, lady.
- 13:36Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like I got to make some money here.
- 13:37Speaker 1: It's like they think it's just everything's free.
- 13:39Speaker 3: They shame you. It's so funny. I was watching speaking
- 13:44Speaker 3: about comedians, but Sebastian talking about how they should he
- 13:48Speaker 3: was shamed by dropping when when the when he's dropping
- 13:51Speaker 3: his son off at school and they're like, are you
- 13:52Speaker 3: gonna stay nuts, No, I'll be back and I'll be
- 13:56Speaker 3: back when I got when I was supposed to. Way
- 13:58Speaker 3: do I have to stay now? So it's like they
- 14:01Speaker 3: want you so involved, but I also feel like they
- 14:03Speaker 3: want to involved, but yet on the big things they
- 14:06Speaker 3: don't want to involved.
- 14:08Speaker 1: You have no say no, no, they just want you
- 14:09Speaker 1: to to be there at your back and call. But
- 14:11Speaker 1: like when they want to do their thing and push
- 14:13Speaker 1: their stuff, it's.
- 14:13Speaker 3: Like right, right, exactly, so the way you have no say,
- 14:16Speaker 3: but yet you want me to exact one you need me.
- 14:18Speaker 1: They want our tax dollars and want us to be
- 14:20Speaker 1: the pretty much.
- 14:21Speaker 3: That's all they want from us.
- 14:23Speaker 1: That's it, definitely.
- 14:23Speaker 3: And they want to push their agendas. Oh yeah, yeah
- 14:26Speaker 3: add out, and we're not allowed to know what they're pushing.
- 14:29Speaker 1: Well, that's true. I'm not at that stage yet. My
- 14:31Speaker 1: son's will always kindergarten.
- 14:33Speaker 3: Well, I don't have any kids that school age, and
- 14:36Speaker 3: I know if it happens to my grandchildren, I know.
- 14:38Speaker 1: That I'll be fired up.
- 14:40Speaker 3: I'll probably be in jail if that happens. Yes, I
- 14:44Speaker 3: would definitely, you're going to see me on the on
- 14:45Speaker 3: the five o'clock news. That's what will happen. Seriously, that's
- 14:49Speaker 3: will happen. I see, you'll see me gett walked up. Menus.
- 14:54Speaker 1: Sure, as you stand for something, well you know what.
- 14:57Speaker 3: As I stand for common sense, I don't.
- 15:00Speaker 1: There's no common sense in the way.
- 15:01Speaker 3: No, listen, I'm not I'm not. I'm not gonna I'm not.
- 15:05Speaker 3: I'm in the middle. I'm not gonna say I don't
- 15:09Speaker 3: like to talk about politics, to go into deep with it,
- 15:13Speaker 3: but I'm I'm not. I think most people are in
- 15:15Speaker 3: the middle, and I think that that's where it should be.
- 15:19Speaker 3: But the problem is is that you have these these
- 15:21Speaker 3: people on one side that are so.
- 15:23Speaker 1: Extreme they're like aggressive red, aggressive blue. Between.
- 15:27Speaker 3: No, it's gotta be it's gotta be in the middle
- 15:29Speaker 3: because people do live in that in this Oh yeah,
- 15:32Speaker 3: that's it. You know.
- 15:34Speaker 1: It like makes a lot of things hard, like even
- 15:36Speaker 1: like doing stand up, Like I feel.
- 15:38Speaker 3: Like, how could you even just stand up? The offend everybody.
- 15:41Speaker 1: Like there's jokes I say that I feel like if
- 15:43Speaker 1: I said them ten years ago, people like that's hilarious. Yeah,
- 15:46Speaker 1: And then some now that They're like.
- 15:48Speaker 3: Listen live and look at the Folly Brothers movies. You
- 15:51Speaker 3: can't even have a Folly brother movie now, I don't
- 15:54Speaker 3: look at.
- 15:54Speaker 1: White Chicks if White Chicks came out.
- 15:57Speaker 3: But it's hilarious, it is. What about what I don't
- 16:00Speaker 3: I have not seen a funny movie in.
- 16:03Speaker 1: A decent amount of time.
- 16:04Speaker 3: I'm trying to take it the point. Wait, the last
- 16:06Speaker 3: one I saw, actually, Ricky Snicky was pretty fun.
- 16:08Speaker 1: That was actually really good.
- 16:10Speaker 3: But that was a fall thout this movie.
- 16:11Speaker 4: That's also that I've never Johnson and my wife Will
- 16:15Speaker 4: watched this funny. I've never related to something more like
- 16:19Speaker 4: when that happened, I was like, Jesus, hell, have I
- 16:20Speaker 4: not made up a friend that we could do all this?
- 16:23Speaker 3: So's it was great. It was great and it was
- 16:26Speaker 3: not woke, which I don't like.
- 16:27Speaker 1: I don't like.
- 16:28Speaker 3: It was great, you know, I don't like all that
- 16:30Speaker 3: pushing agendas and everything else. It was really really funny.
- 16:34Speaker 3: It was it was a good money I actually that
- 16:36Speaker 3: was the funniest.
- 16:37Speaker 1: That's the funniest way I've seen it long. It's funny.
- 16:39Speaker 1: You say that because I wouldn't have thought of it,
- 16:40Speaker 1: but I saw it. Uh, I saw it like maybe
- 16:42Speaker 1: like two three weeks ago on Amazon and my wife
- 16:45Speaker 1: was like, I don't know if I want to watch it,
- 16:46Speaker 1: and we were watching it.
- 16:47Speaker 3: Well, you I was belly laughing. I thought, that's what
- 16:50Speaker 3: I'm saying. I saw the picture of Johnson coming out
- 16:52Speaker 3: with the freaking Indiana Jones hat. I was like, I
- 16:54Speaker 3: gotta watch this movie. I was hilarious.
- 16:57Speaker 1: I was literally so much.
- 16:59Speaker 3: Was Britney and he has the pigtails on in.
- 17:02Speaker 1: This That was a good part for me. Also, like
- 17:05Speaker 1: when they decide to call him up after like I
- 17:08Speaker 1: was belly laughing, I was like, this isn't funny, and
- 17:10Speaker 1: I'm like, you can't relate to it, That's why it's
- 17:12Speaker 1: so funny. Actually another good movie too that I just
- 17:15Speaker 1: saw that I I actually don't like her, but I
- 17:18Speaker 1: was like, I don't think it's gonna be funny. It's
- 17:19Speaker 1: with Jennifer Lawrence where they hire her as a girl friend.
- 17:22Speaker 3: Yes, that was cute. That was cute.
- 17:25Speaker 1: That was the last belly laugh movie I like, but
- 17:27Speaker 1: it was it was also really good.
- 17:29Speaker 3: It was cute too. But but like you said, today,
- 17:33Speaker 3: those movies they would get you would get canceled for
- 17:35Speaker 3: those it, And how is the comedian supposed to be funny?
- 17:39Speaker 3: If you you have to be able to laugh at
- 17:41Speaker 3: yourself and make fun of yourself, you can't. You can't.
- 17:44Speaker 3: You're not gonna listen. You're gonna always offend somebody. If
- 17:46Speaker 3: you're gonna spend the rest of your life worrying who
- 17:48Speaker 3: you're gonna offend, you know what, go in the corner
- 17:50Speaker 3: and go get a hug.
- 17:52Speaker 1: I don't know what else.
- 17:54Speaker 3: Like I say, like, there's where a helmet and go
- 17:56Speaker 3: with me.
- 17:57Speaker 1: Don't still get hurt somehow?
- 17:58Speaker 3: I mean, I mean this people it's like it's crazy.
- 18:01Speaker 1: Everything offends them. It's like, but.
- 18:03Speaker 3: They're they're offended for other people and they.
- 18:05Speaker 1: That's like the big issue. Like you don't have to be.
- 18:08Speaker 3: Offended for me. Exactly, I'll be offended my own I
- 18:11Speaker 3: want to be offended. I don't need you to go
- 18:13Speaker 3: be offended for me.
- 18:14Speaker 1: Like there's people I feel like who come to comedy
- 18:15Speaker 1: clubs and like just go there, do to boo And
- 18:20Speaker 1: I said a joke.
- 18:20Speaker 3: See how see how that sick some people? It is?
- 18:23Speaker 3: That's that's how it is. That's how little they have
- 18:25Speaker 3: to do in life that they need to do that.
- 18:27Speaker 1: You're gonna pay thirty bucks and get two drinks, two items,
- 18:30Speaker 1: just just to and then they don't if you start
- 18:34Speaker 1: heckling them back, Oh it's even worse.
- 18:36Speaker 3: Oh they but they can't.
- 18:38Speaker 1: Say it's it's bad. I had a guy I said
- 18:41Speaker 1: a joke that's always like kind of worked for me.
- 18:43Speaker 1: The guy in the front was like, this is ridiculous,
- 18:45Speaker 1: and I was like, whoa, whoa, somebody's offended. And I
- 18:47Speaker 1: started asking them questions like why are you offended? And
- 18:50Speaker 1: then he said it, and I'm like, go fuck yourself, and
- 18:53Speaker 1: like people laugh. But after the show he's like, dude,
- 18:56Speaker 1: that's so disrespectful. And I'm like, all right, guy.
- 18:58Speaker 3: Just you you're just respectful to me. Heckling me through
- 19:02Speaker 3: you're asking for it. So what do you want to
- 19:04Speaker 3: just sit there and say, Okay, I'm sorry that I offended.
- 19:06Speaker 3: You don't come to a comedy show and sit in
- 19:08Speaker 3: the front to me and then you won't get how
- 19:10Speaker 3: about don't put yourself in a situation. Get out of
- 19:13Speaker 3: the memoration.
- 19:14Speaker 1: When I would go to comedy clubs to watch comedians,
- 19:16Speaker 1: I'd be like, I hope they don't call it. I'd
- 19:19Speaker 1: be like, God, please, don't be too noticeable because they're
- 19:22Speaker 1: gonna be.
- 19:23Speaker 3: Like, look at this guy, Oh my god, I don't care.
- 19:25Speaker 3: Do you remember that you're probably too young. But there
- 19:27Speaker 3: was a comedy club in Sheep said Peg called Oh
- 19:30Speaker 3: my god, was I forgot what it was called. It
- 19:31Speaker 3: was right on, right on on the strip in Sheep
- 19:34Speaker 3: said Bay, and they there was it was. It was small,
- 19:37Speaker 3: but we used to go there alive, and I was.
- 19:39Speaker 3: We always used to fight, like, please don't get there
- 19:41Speaker 3: late because it was funny. You want to sit in
- 19:44Speaker 3: the front because they knew they were gonna get destroyed
- 19:46Speaker 3: if they sat in the front. So if you got
- 19:48Speaker 3: there late, they're always the front seats were the ones
- 19:50Speaker 3: that no one wants to sit there, nobody because they
- 19:53Speaker 3: know if you're there, you're gonna get You're gonna get
- 19:56Speaker 3: the strip. So I'm like no. But but that's when
- 19:59Speaker 3: the comedians was solid.
- 20:00Speaker 1: That's when they were great fun and they.
- 20:02Speaker 3: Will go and beg for somebody to say something in
- 20:06Speaker 3: the front, you know, and and they they would pick
- 20:08Speaker 3: you right out, they would see something.
- 20:09Speaker 1: It sucks that it's not like that because I feel like.
- 20:12Speaker 3: But these kids, because that's the problem. That's why these
- 20:14Speaker 3: kids are so swift these days. My kids will never
- 20:17Speaker 3: be like that, and my grandchill never be like that.
- 20:19Speaker 1: I was going to be tough.
- 20:20Speaker 3: I will not let them be like that because you
- 20:23Speaker 3: have to have thick skin. You cannot get upset over
- 20:26Speaker 3: everything and get offended over Definitely, life is rough. Get
- 20:30Speaker 3: a helmet.
- 20:30Speaker 1: That's it. It does get rough, you know.
- 20:33Speaker 3: That's all. It's like.
- 20:35Speaker 1: There's just like comedian Shane Gillison, he says, like it's
- 20:38Speaker 1: funny too because people will make fun of like a
- 20:40Speaker 1: lot of people, and people will get offended. But like
- 20:43Speaker 1: Italians are the last like nationality where everyone could make
- 20:46Speaker 1: fun of right and says anything.
- 20:48Speaker 3: But I was just saying that's I don't know if
- 20:51Speaker 3: you saw a Caine due cheese. Yeah, we said that.
- 20:54Speaker 3: We were talking about the like. You know, it's just
- 20:55Speaker 3: like right, it's okay if they make fun of class,
- 20:59Speaker 3: if everything's not if we say something back, but we
- 21:02Speaker 3: should be able to say something oh yeah, yeah, because
- 21:04Speaker 3: what you only equate us to what the mafia exactly?
- 21:07Speaker 3: Uh a sauce tomato sauce and and and black dresses.
- 21:12Speaker 1: I did hear she said gravy on there, which.
- 21:14Speaker 3: To me is a big we have to tell she's
- 21:16Speaker 3: gonna she's gonna be coming on now as my co
- 21:18Speaker 3: hosts now, which is going to be fun.
- 21:20Speaker 1: Yeah. I heard her. I remember when I was listening,
- 21:21Speaker 1: she was like yeah, and then making gravy, And in
- 21:23Speaker 1: my head, I was like this, what do you call
- 21:24Speaker 1: your I'm a sauce guy.
- 21:27Speaker 3: I'm a sauce girl. I never called the gravy.
- 21:28Speaker 1: I never did. It's just one day.
- 21:30Speaker 3: I don't know whether I ever came from because I
- 21:32Speaker 3: don't think.
- 21:33Speaker 1: It's a big Philly thing. I think sau but uh,
- 21:37Speaker 1: you know, when people call it bravy.
- 21:38Speaker 3: I'm like gravy, I think I'm I think of something.
- 21:42Speaker 1: Bravey's brown.
- 21:43Speaker 3: Bravey's Brave's brown. Swrus is red exactly exact, no matter
- 21:47Speaker 3: what swus. If you say swus to me, I'm equating
- 21:48Speaker 3: it to read.
- 21:50Speaker 1: I don't care. That's because even if it's Alfredo sauce,
- 21:52Speaker 1: it's no. It's in my head, I'm like, not sauce.
- 21:55Speaker 3: It's still everything swas. That's that's all. We have to quit.
- 21:58Speaker 1: Gravy. Gravy is no good.
- 21:59Speaker 3: No graves brown. Yeah, that's just yeah, it's brown. It's
- 22:03Speaker 3: totally brown. It's brown and mushy. Yeah, it's not.
- 22:06Speaker 1: And it only goes on mashed potatoes or or of
- 22:10Speaker 1: chicken fried steak, chicken stake.
- 22:12Speaker 3: Something something American, nothing not something not something Italian. Italian
- 22:16Speaker 3: force goes on Italian for so, I think you're right.
- 22:19Speaker 3: It is probably from Philly.
- 22:20Speaker 1: I'm telling you it's definitely from Philly because or in the.
- 22:23Speaker 3: South, because there is a lot of Italians in the South.
- 22:25Speaker 3: I mean, Umbroll is from the South. So there was
- 22:27Speaker 3: there was a lot of Italians in Louisiana or something that.
- 22:30Speaker 1: I always stew for some reasons, from like a big city. Yeah,
- 22:33Speaker 1: because he's.
- 22:34Speaker 3: But it was it's a big city. Is from He's
- 22:37Speaker 3: from New Orleans. He's from New Orleans City. So yeah,
- 22:40Speaker 3: I mean, but that's there was a lot of It
- 22:42Speaker 3: was a lot of Italians. I migrated to the South
- 22:44Speaker 3: in the in the ear before with the big migration
- 22:47Speaker 3: after the war of the World War two, they came
- 22:50Speaker 3: over and they were they went to the South, which

- 28:09Speaker 1: But my son says like all this like random stuff
- 28:13Speaker 1: that he hears, and like one day he was hysterically
- 28:15Speaker 1: screaming at like five in the morning. He's like, Daddy, please.
