But see, love will rule supreme. Happy Valentine's Day.

I start. I think m started phasing them out around Christmas. Cuz you got to start phasing them out around Christmas so you don't got to buy them a gift.

[Cupid Valentino]

Valentine's Day is right after y'all be forgetting one thing. I'm much older than y'all. I don't have to play games.

[Baby D]

I never forget that. When I tell you I don't have to play those games, it's that you old as.

[Baby D]

If we are newly dating. I don't know, Something creative. Something like some. If we're newly dating, like, we haven't slept together newly dating. Then I guess like dinner. I don't like celebrating Valentine's Day on Valentine's Day because there's so many fucking people outside. Especially in New York.

[Cupid Valentino]

The restaurant can't get a reservation nowhere.

[Baby D]

It's a whole thing.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

Yes. People do stuff for people on Valentine's Day that they haven't slept with.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, of course.

[Baby D]

You can send somebody flowers, somebody. If you're in the process of trying to court somebody and then Valentine's Day comes around, you don't ignore the holiday. Like, you could send, like, a card. Flowers, chocolate, like. Yeah, there's things you can do.

[Damaris]

[Cupid Valentino]

Love is in your heart. Yeah.

[Damaris]

Love is love. Ref. Run.

[Baby D]

So when. So when I came in here, Mal, to finish answering your question. If we're in a relationship, let's do something in the house. Something fun.

[Cupid Valentino]

But you don't want to go out for Valentine's Day. Not Relationship or not, you don't want to be.

[Baby D]

Not if we're in New York City.

[Cupid Valentino]

Okay?

[Baby D]

Not if we're in New York City. If we're somewhere else, sure. With more space. But in New York City. No.

[Cupid Valentino]

I mean, if you go to any major city, it's gonna be busy on Valentine's Day. So if you go to la, it's gonna be busy. If you go to Houston, it's gonna be busy. If you go to Miami, it's gonna be busy. If you go. You know what I'm saying? Atlanta, it's gonna be busy. You would have to go to, like, you know what I mean? Like, Jackson Hole, Wyoming, to be like, all right, we can go anywhere right now and get a. And get a table.

[Baby D]

Or you can rent, like, a cabin or something like that. Or rent, like. I'm cool with if we suite and we order whatever food we want and we're in there in comfy pajamas, like in the hotel suite, having fun, talking, kicking. Like, I love the. The have drinks with your significant other, like in the house. Like, I like that.

[Cupid Valentino]

Just y'all too.

[Baby D]

Yeah. You know how much information you could get out of a. Once you get him comfortable and drunk?

[Cupid Valentino]

What? Why you gotta fix the elixir?

[Baby D]

Oh, man, those. You get the most information.

[Cupid Valentino]

So you'd rather be in the house just y'all too.

[Damaris]

That's like. That's like mind rapey.

[Cupid Valentino]

But to get him drunk and then.

[Damaris]

Get him to try to get info out.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, but that only works on the rookie.

[Damaris]

Remember when Dead Prez put out mind sex? That's mind rape.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

What the fuck? You trying to just fill him up with liquids?

[Cupid Valentino]

But why do you want to. But baby, that's a dangerous game. Because you don't want the truth on Valentine. That'll fuck up your whole day. If you get the truth.

[Baby D]

No, because there's only so many truths. If it's a truth that's gonna hurt me bad enough that it'll ruin the Valentine's Day, then we'll need to be together. And I'm happy that I got that truth.

[Cupid Valentino]

So, Baby D, leading up to Valentine's Day with your significant other, do you make sure that the week leading up, like, you don't upset him? You don't cause no harm.

[Baby D]

I'm so agreeable.

[Cupid Valentino]

Everything is.

[Baby D]

[Cupid Valentino]

Why y'all do that? That's a game y'all like to play. Y'all get real nice around February, Christmas.

[Baby D]

[Cupid Valentino]

Shut up.

[Baby D]

I'm old 40s housewife. I shut the fuck up.

[Cupid Valentino]

I don't see nothing why that can't be every day.

[Baby D]

Nah.

[Damaris]

[Cupid Valentino]

The everyday.

[Damaris]

What's wrong with America?

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, but when it's Valentine's Day, quiet February 1st, you. You on your best behavior.

[Baby D]

Oh, you gotta start genuine from. Listen, that's what I'm telling you. You can't. You can't fuck up from like Thanksgiving to Valentine's Day.

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh, shit. Y'all ain't never. Y'all ain't. Y'all not capable of doing that. Ain't no woman on the planet capable of being for three months. Come on, cut the shit.

[Baby D]

You can't do the big stuff. You could do a little small one, but not the big stuff. Like, I'm not bickering because if the week of. It doesn't matter, because if you really love me, you bought the gift two weeks ago.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, so. Okay.

[Baby D]

And you're not gonna cancel so I can argue with you on the 13th. You're not gonna cancel the reservation and everything that you had planned the night before.

[Cupid Valentino]

Right.

[Baby D]

That's. That would be my ideal Valentine's Day.

[Cupid Valentino]

What's your ideal Valentine's Day?

[Damaris]

Rory left alone Sleep man's man far away from me. Let's express our love from distance. I send like a text, though.

[Cupid Valentino]

In the same house?

[Damaris]

No, no. Like, I'm thinking, like, opposite sides of the country.

[Baby D]

Rory, be serious.

[Damaris]

I. I don't know. I'm not a Valentine's Day person. I am romantic, but. All right. So last year, which is why I think mall's a little full of. Because we were all out in LA during Valentine's Day. We were shooting all of my karma's beautiful shit. Mall magically got a stomach bug, didn't stay with us, and was ghost all of Valentine's Day when we were shooting and everything.

[Cupid Valentino]

When I was coughing up a lung.

[Damaris]

Marcy's son.

[Baby D]

I know.

[Damaris]

In my hotel room, just conveniently on Valentine's Day.

[Cupid Valentino]

I wish I wasn't.

[Damaris]

I got a chef to come to the crib I was staying in. Got a masseuse and did that. I'm romantic on Valentine's Day. I just never. I've never had a woman do anything for me on Valentine's Day because I just don't got it like that. I've always been the person giving.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

Rather than receiving.

[Cupid Valentino]

What do you do for your guy on Valentine's Day?

[Baby D]

Things that I have done. I've bought flowers. I decorated a hotel room. That wasn't Valentine's Day, that was his birthday. Valentine's Day is. I don't know. I'm not gonna lie. Valentine's Day is kind of my day. Like, I'll buy you flowers. I'll buy you things that you're into. So like. Like little, like kind of like stocking stuffers. I'm not going to go for you. That's. Let's be real. That's for girls. Like, that's for men to do for girls. Which I have done. You know, I think my last Valentine's Day, I flew my ex girlfriend out. I think possibly. I can't remember, but for men. Yeah. I'll get you, like, if you like a certain, like, video game or you like A certain cologne, like, little stock and stuff for, like, things like that. And then a card. I'm a big car person.

[Cupid Valentino]

Don't roll over.

[Damaris]

You can't. You can't remember if you flew your ex girlfriend out last Valentine's Day?

[Baby D]

I can't remember.

[Damaris]

I'm quiet, man.

[Baby D]

I can't remember if it was last year, year before.

[Damaris]

No, time is. Time is a construct.

[Baby D]

Exactly. Can't put a date on it.

[Damaris]

But no, it's February 14th. They put a date.

[Cupid Valentino]

It's an exact date on it, actually. February 14th every year.

[Baby D]

I lead a busy life. But no, like, yeah, I like little things and I like cards. I'm. My love. Like, language is words of affirmation. So I'm gonna tell you how much I love you in a card or, like, expressing it to your face. So what is that?

[Cupid Valentino]

It's tough being single on Valentine's Day, is it?

[Baby D]

Is it?

[Damaris]

It's just another day. No, if people really take Valentine's Day.

[Cupid Valentino]

That's. I'm just saying, like, for. Not for me speaking for myself, but for people. It is because some people, you know, they get that depressive state where they see people in love and nobody's loving them.

[Damaris]

And you know that to me, Valentine's Day was not really that big of a deal until Instagram.

[Cupid Valentino]

Well, I mean, that's my language.

[Damaris]

That's when I feel like shit completely shifted. Of course you did nice things, but, like, it became a fucking show.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

The same way prom became a thing when these kids got Instagram. Now it's like, damn, you doing all that to go to your school Valentine's Day. To me, Instagram is the reason all that is happening.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

Just so you can be able to show everyone that this happened for you and all that, you got to be.

[Cupid Valentino]

You have to compare what you got, what you're doing and what you know. But then it's also the part we don't talk about is how people get jammed up and posting and showing. And it's like, hold up. Like, you gotta. Well, since when you had a girl, that's how you get jammed up.

[Baby D]

Well, you shouldn't be. But yes, that is how people get jammed up.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, but if the girl is posting, what you gonna do? You can't. You gonna be hiding, not trying to jump in picture. You gonna be like, yo, why you acting funny like that? You know, y'all do shit like that. Women, y'all play. Y'all know when a nigga acting uneasy and he a little nervous on Valentine's Day. Like, why you acting all nervous? Why you acting all jittery? Why you trying to hurry up and get back to the hotel?

[Baby D]

He's acting like a crackhead in an airport.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, he don't wanna be seen. He can't be seen outside.

[Damaris]

And I get that. But in that guy's defense, I did this for you, not for the rest of the world. The fuck you want to show everyone? I don't like it.

[Cupid Valentino]

Nah, man. Don't count if she don't show it.

[Damaris]

Yes, it do. It's tangible. It's in front of my face. I can touch these balloons to you.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, but the girl got to show it off. And it's cool. Women are supposed to show that they're being showered with love and things. No, I mean, if you're in a healthy relationship. Yes. If you creeping around, then.

[Damaris]

No, I'm saying, in the healthy relationship, why would you need to show everyone that?

[Baby D]

I don't need to, but I want to. I show people the smoothie that I had. Like, the fucking. I burp on camera. I can't show people the flowers that my loved one got me. I can post my avocado toast, but not the flowers you got me. Yeah, actually, that doesn't make a lick of sense.

[Cupid Valentino]

Well, prepare to see a bunch of arms and Rolexes tonight. Rory, all up and down your timeline, you hating.

[Baby D]

You looking for yours? Cause you know, I click. I be in that motherfucking story. Like, looking.

[Cupid Valentino]

Not me, bitch.

[Baby D]

Where you at?

[Cupid Valentino]

Not me. But y'all do that. Women, y'all. Y'all got each other's location. Y'all know where y'all go. Everybody gonna see where y'all at tomorrow. Like, y'all got women share locations. Do you share locations with guys?

[Damaris]

No.

[Cupid Valentino]

You peach. Yeah, I've been there.

[Damaris]

Kia was the one that put me on, like, her whole friend group. They all have was like, wow, y'all have everyone's location. Which I guess for safety reasons I get. But she's like, you don't have that. I was like, no.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah. My homeboy accidentally started sharing his location with me one day, and I text him. I said, yo, you all right? Why is it saying, is now sharing? Look, I don't care where you at. And it's up. Because he could have really been in some trouble. But I saw it. Could the alert come through, and it said, now sharing location? And I was like. I text. I said, yo, why are you sharing your location with me? He was like, huh? I said, yo, you sharing your location? Oh, my bad. Like, that's just as men. It's just like, yo, what are you doing? I don't care where you at. But women, I do understand, because y'all move around. Y'all travel, so y'all should know where.

[Baby D]

Especially if you're going on, like, a date or something like that. Like, girl, you gotta know everything. Anything.

[Damaris]

Yeah, no, that definitely makes sense. But I still. I don't know. There's plenty of, like, male friend groups I know that do that for their location. We're old, man. It's like a regular thing for the younger generation. Yes.

[Cupid Valentino]

Men sharing location.

[Damaris]

Yes, though.

[Cupid Valentino]

I'm not sharing my location with no man, dog. I'm just not. I'm not letting the girl know. Let me know when you got in the house. No, I'm not letting you know when I got in the house. Like, why am I letting the girl know when I'm all right? I'm safe.

[Baby D]

Yeah, I don't. I don't like that.

[Cupid Valentino]

Let me know when you got in.

[Baby D]

Yeah, I don't like that.

[Damaris]

What's wrong with that?

[Baby D]

I'm not gonna fight you over it, but it's. It's a. It's a little thing. Like, it's a chivalry thing. Like, let me know when you got in. Like, you're good. Shit be happening out here.

[Damaris]

No, I'm saying, what's wrong with someone's asking that? Let me know when you get in.

[Baby D]

Nothing.

[Damaris]

Okay.

[Baby D]

Mall is.

[Damaris]

Oh, you think that's weird?

[Cupid Valentino]

You be letting girls know when you got in?

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Felipe Esparza]

So.

[Cupid Valentino]

Sup?

[Damaris]

Wait, what's wrong with that?

[Cupid Valentino]

Nothing.

[Damaris]

If she asked me when we part. Yo, let me know when you get home. I'm gonna let her know when I got in.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah. How do you tell yourself I'm home? Yeah, I'm in. You look like you say, I'm in here. This say I'm in.

[Damaris]

Arrived.

[Baby D]

Or you could just share your Uber Low. You know, when. When you in Uber to share it with me?

[Cupid Valentino]

Nah, we not.

[Damaris]

Have you ever shared your location with a woman? Like, have you ever had that relationship? I've definitely had that.

[Cupid Valentino]

What? One of my. One of my close female friends, when she was going to la, she shared her location with me because I wanted.

[Damaris]

To make sure she was not what I'm talking about. You know, that girl that you are intimate with, have you ever shared a location?

[Cupid Valentino]

Have I ever shared my location with her?

[Damaris]

Yeah, you heard me the first three times.

[Cupid Valentino]

I don't know. I don't think so, Cap. No, I never have. Honestly.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Cupid Valentino]

Why Would I be sharing my location with her?

[Damaris]

Why not?

[Cupid Valentino]

No, that's not a real answer. That's like when kids. You sell. Some kid don't do something, they. Why?

[Damaris]

No, no, for safety purposes. If I'm dating a woman, I don't mind sharing my location. Where? For safety?

[Cupid Valentino]

Shit, for your safety.

[Damaris]

Oh, everyone's safety.

[Baby D]

Acting like nothing.

[Cupid Valentino]

If she can see you in Queens right now, how's she gonna know something's happening to you? She just know you in Queens.

[Damaris]

I mean, if she can, you don't.

[Cupid Valentino]

Know niggas is beating you up in Queens just cause she got your location.

[Baby D]

But if that's outside of his realm.

[Damaris]

Why is that scenario?

[Cupid Valentino]

To be in Queen? He from Queens.

[Damaris]

But why did you have to add in? Got beat up there too. Like, that's.

[Cupid Valentino]

No, because you said safety. He said safety reasons.

[Damaris]

I don't get beat up there.

[Cupid Valentino]

Damaris, you my girl. I share my location with you. You see I'm in Harlem. Would be beating my ass. You got my location. You won't know I got my ass beat until I call you and be like, yo, these niggas just jump me.

[Damaris]

You're trying to put the. Are we talking about trying to put logic onto it.

[Cupid Valentino]

Where you at? Let me see.

[Damaris]

And then pull up, for some reason, she can't reach me. My phone goes dead. Whatever. Something happens to me. No, maybe something happened. I got a car accident. She can see the last location of where the fuck I was at.

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh, you watched too much. First 48. So you thinking if you only have.

[Damaris]

48 hours to solve a murder.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, that's it. After 48, they don't know what happened.

[Damaris]

No, they're just like, ye, that's ocean, man. We're not even on that.

[Cupid Valentino]

We got some other shit going on right now.

[Damaris]

This is the craziest law, yo.

[Cupid Valentino]

So we share the location. And so if your girl doesn't hear from you in a few hours, she be like, yo, damn. Like, where's he at? That's what you're saying?

[Damaris]

I also prefer it too. Like, if we're working all day and she's trying to get a hold of me, trying to see where the fuck I'm at. I'm not looking at my phone. Oh, he's at work. Bet now I know to not blow his phone up. It's helpful in certain situations and also.

[Baby D]

When I've had it on in my relationship is if you're leaving my house and driving somewhere. If I go to check your location in an hour and you ain't Home. When you said that, I know something's wrong. Not like I think you're cheating on me. Like I know something's wrong. It takes you 20 minutes to get home. It's been an hour. You're not home yet.

[Cupid Valentino]

Baby D. I call Cap and Baby D, if you share locations with your man and he leave your house and you know it take him 20 minutes to get home, and you check that location. It's been an hour. He ain't home yet. You are not thinking something happened to him. You gonna call him and be like, where you at?

[Baby D]

I don't get in relationships with men that I think would cheat on me. I don't do that.

[Cupid Valentino]

So nobody gets in a relationship. All right, well, some women are dumb.

[Baby D]

But it's not gonna be my first thing. Like, immediately. It's gonna be a safety thing. Like, immediately it's gonna be. Yo, what's. Like, are you okay? So if I'm calling and calling and calling and you not answering, I know that's.

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh, no. At that point.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Cupid Valentino]

If you call and he's not answering. Yes, of course.

[Baby D]

Like, I know that something is. Is wrong. So that's gonna be.

[Damaris]

You know, Mal, I just wanna be clear. We have been gaslighting you this entire time. All location sharing is to make sure your significant other is not cheating.

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh, I know that's true.

[Damaris]

I wanna be honest. Gaslighting.

[Baby D]

I know that's not true.

[Cupid Valentino]

Which is why I don't share locations.

[Baby D]

That's not true.

[Cupid Valentino]

You me share my location. Get out of here.

[Baby D]

That is. That is not true at all. Yo, I seen somebody that said, don't act. Don't text me saying. Or why I didn't answer the phone. You thought something happened to me. No, you didn't. You thought I was with a. And that I've been laughing at that.

[Cupid Valentino]

Cause it's true. That's why you laughing.

[Baby D]

That's not true.

[Cupid Valentino]

That's why you laughing, baby. To cut this, you laughing because you know that's what y'all be thinking. No.

[Damaris]

Once I found out. Cause I thought that that's really what the share location shit was. Once a girl put me on that. She had her iPad and her phone connected.

[Baby D]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

And left her iPad location on. That's what somebody was viewing. I was like, I'm not even gonna play this location game. Because you guys are now even gaslighting.

[Cupid Valentino]

That know how to. You know how to throw it off.

[Damaris]

Like, she was like, no, I just switch it over to my iPad so it looks like my location is There. Yeah, it's sharing on that. I was like, all right, man.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, but you're gonna know where she was at.

[Damaris]

That's why I don't do Valentine's Day.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, but you gonna know where she was at when you start pissing oatmeal. It's all good. That's how that. That's a. That's. That tells all. You go to the bathroom.

[Damaris]

As a. As a chlamydia survivor. It wasn't oatmeal. It's just. It just.

[Cupid Valentino]

You should get a hoodie.

[Damaris]

It was like little flavors.

[Cupid Valentino]

Chlamydia survive. And then put the year on the back because, you know, people like, I.

[Damaris]

Think you corny for never getting chlamydia. Honestly.

[Cupid Valentino]

That's corny.

[Damaris]

Yeah, that's corny.

[Cupid Valentino]

Cause you don't get. No, I get a lot of. I get clean.

[Damaris]

I thought you said how many, how many? How much? What's your body count?

[Cupid Valentino]

No, my life.

[Baby D]

Oh, okay.

[Cupid Valentino]

You think of my life. I never. The marriage.

[Baby D]

No, but you said. I get. I'm like, no, I'm not. Pet ass tick. You say you get, but you just said that you ain't got him. I'm just trying to figure out.

[Cupid Valentino]

I mean, I get, though.

[Baby D]

I'm just trying to get. Dude on you.

[Cupid Valentino]

Come on, baby, don't do that. We not gonna do that. You know, you can look at me and tell. I gets to it.

[Damaris]

Now, Malt turning. That guy you clowning on the block, and his only response is, I get, though, Right?

[Baby D]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

Don't I get?

[Cupid Valentino]

No, because, you know, he was trying to make it seem like. Because I ain't catch chlamydia. No, it's just clean.

[Damaris]

Sometimes you need a round of applause. You gotta get clapped up. Let them know.

[Cupid Valentino]

That nasty woman that. That's. That nasty Harley, that was your. Don't do.

[Baby D]

I. I.

[Damaris]

She's not. She's very beautiful.

[Baby D]

We don't do that.

[Cupid Valentino]

What?

[Baby D]

We don't STD shame. We don't shame the people, man.

[Cupid Valentino]

Chick burned me. I'm shaming. I'm. I'm at her door, like, who you out here?

[Baby D]

No. Cause it just is. Well, if y'all in a relationship, yes. But if you're both single, just as easy as you got burnt. She probably got burnt just as easy. Doesn't make you dirty because you caught a STD.

[Damaris]

It's 19.

[Cupid Valentino]

Somebody's dirty if you got an STD.

[Baby D]

No, it doesn't.

[Cupid Valentino]

I'm not saying it's you, but whoever you slept with is dirty. And whoever he slept with is dirty. Whoever she slept with is dirty.

[Damaris]

But you have to take accountability. I shouldn't have been 19 years old in those Newark streets. It was my fault.

[Baby D]

Newer, you survived Newark chlamydia.

[Damaris]

I've talked about this on the pod plane.

[Baby D]

I don't know. You said it.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah. Newer chlamydia is like, wuhan Covid. That's like, you got.

[Damaris]

And you guys have clowned me when I was like, nah, I really felt like she was only me.

[Cupid Valentino]

That is how you would catch chlamydia. He thought he had. No.

[Damaris]

That's where I was really hurt. I was. I thought it was. I thought we was locked in.

[Baby D]

Damn.

[Damaris]

We weren't in a relationship, but I thought we was.

[Cupid Valentino]

You know, we was talking.

[Damaris]

We was going to the mall and together. I thought it was just me and her.

[Cupid Valentino]

The homies is hitting that for sure. The homies is here.

[Damaris]

And then you clown me because I said I beat. You know, later on.

[Baby D]

Rory, what's your worst Valentine's Day, though? Can you remember a worst Valentine's Day?

[Cupid Valentino]

Newark chlamydia.

[Damaris]

No, that was in the summer.

[Cupid Valentino]

Okay, my bad.

[Damaris]

Yeah. Oh, n. I was going crazy.

[Baby D]

Ew.

[Damaris]

Oh, man. Shout out to Sanford Avenue. Anyways, I don't know if I've had a bad.

[Felipe Esparza]

I don't.

[Damaris]

I don't know if I've had, like, a really good Valentine's Day or a bad one. That's why when you guys put those points up, I was like, I don't know if I have much to contribute here. It's never really been a huge holiday for me. And maybe that's probably my issue.

[Cupid Valentino]

When I hear people have, like, these crazy dates, like, these stories, sometimes I think they just making up. I'm like, yo, somebody really? You really went through that? Like, what type of people do y'all be meeting where it's, like, just insane shit happening? Like, yo, his baby moms found out what restaurant we was at, and she showed up. I'm like, this is real life. This happened. Like, that just sounds like a movie. Like, wait, you were sitting at dinner. Homies baby moms pulled up with the kids and said, you just left the house.

[Baby D]

Oof. That's right.

[Cupid Valentino]

That don't sound real. I'm sorry.

[Baby D]

That does not sound like a real thing happened.

[Damaris]

Not to me, because he was sharing his location.

[Cupid Valentino]

That's exactly why his dumbass. He had Outback that location. He had Outback with his wife, with his side. He got his location on. Talking about. I'm picking up butter rolls no, the.

[Baby D]

You ain't Outback for the V day.

[Cupid Valentino]

Outback? Yeah.

[Baby D]

You got to take no shaming. I'm.

[Cupid Valentino]

No, you know, you got to take the side to the low spot. You got to go to where nobody low. I mean, on Valentine's Day, nobody ain't going.

[Damaris]

That's where the family's at.

[Cupid Valentino]

That's where the older people go for Valentine's Day, bro.

[Baby D]

No, that's where you going.

[Damaris]

Run into one of her.

[Cupid Valentino]

Nobody on social media is going to Outback Steakhouse on Valentine's Day. That is embarrassing.

[Baby D]

Younger people. They're not posting it, but younger people, definitely. I used to work at a Red Lobster bab. Valentine's Day, I used to make it.

[Damaris]

First of all, let's not act like Outback and Red Lobster are the same. Red Lobster for Valentine's Day is totally fine.

[Cupid Valentino]

That's like. That's.

[Damaris]

That's premium.

[Cupid Valentino]

That's like the Gap in Old Navy. It's the same shit.

[Damaris]

No, because Red Lobster is Banana Republic. Those V necks are a little more expensive.

[Cupid Valentino]

It's like universal.

[Damaris]

Red Lobster, the Red Lobster in Harlem, you had to, like, get a reservation a week in advance.

[Cupid Valentino]

You also had to get a gun.

[Baby D]

Harlem was crazy.

[Cupid Valentino]

You also had to get a gun to go in that motherfucker. You go to the Red Lobster in hall, you better be strapped. Cause them niggas from the east side is in here tonight. You crazy. You better have your shit on you.

[Damaris]

Matter of fact, that's central Harlem.

[Cupid Valentino]

That's where the east stand.

[Damaris]

Was me that.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, you bugging. Going to Red Lobster for Valentine's Day by the Apollo. Yeah, nigga, you crazy going to that Red Lobster on Valentine's Day. You crazy going to that Red Lobster Valentine's Day. The Bloods think that's they meeting grounds. Like, yo, we in here tonight.

[Damaris]

We tried to go there. The night Michael Jackson died, you went.

[Cupid Valentino]

To Red Lobster tonight.

[Damaris]

We went to the. We went outside the Apollo.

[Cupid Valentino]

This nigga had an appetite. The night Michael Jackson died, I didn't eat for four days. When we lost Mike went to Red Lobster, Michael almost threw up.

[Damaris]

We was at Fordham running track. We saw that on little tv. Went back to. Went to Grand Concourse, Concourse Village, and was like, I mean, we got to do, like, something for Mike tonight. And everyone's like, yo, everyone's going to the Apollo.

[Cupid Valentino]

You ate. I cried for Mike. He died.

[Damaris]

We all. We had. It was a block party outside the Apollo when Mike died.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

And then, you know, naturally, you work.

[Cupid Valentino]

Up an appetite right next door and.

[Damaris]

We was like, might as well just go to Red.

[Cupid Valentino]

That is crazy fair.

[Damaris]

I think they threw someone through that first glass window. Oh, that. That Red Lobster. Didn't Nicki Minaj work at that Red Lobster in Harlem?

[Cupid Valentino]

Word.

[Damaris]

I know he was in the Bronx. She talked about that one time.

[Cupid Valentino]

Nah, it's no way.

[Damaris]

I think it was in the Bronx.

[Cupid Valentino]

Nikki worked at that Red Lobster. We gotta talk to the label.

[Damaris]

Because there's no reason that opened when Nikki was already a star. She worked at one in the Bronx or some that she talked about. And I was like, oh, that's the wild Red Lobster.

[Cupid Valentino]

That's funny as this had an appetite when Mike died.

[Baby D]

That's crazy.

[Cupid Valentino]

But it's funny. When Mike died four nights, I couldn't even. I couldn't cry at. Cause I was out with, like, some old friends. And a friend of mine at the time, he had. That was draft night, and he got drafted that night. So I was like. It was like a happy moment. But then I was like, I can't wait to go home and just, like, be alone and cry. Like, I remember thinking that, like, I can't even really be happy. Like, yeah, yo, you got drafted. Congrats. Soon as I got home, I was crying like a baby. Like a baby. When Michael Jackson died. Yeah, this nigga went to Red Lobster.

[Baby D]

He will eat.

[Cupid Valentino]

How could you break bread? We just lost Mike, like, breaking bread and complaining about the cheddar biscuits.

[Baby D]

Yo, toast them.

[Damaris]

Actually, I don't even know was the Red Lobster, though, because. Was the Red Lobster even there? Because that was. Oh, that was 2009.

[Baby D]

Nine.

[Damaris]

Yeah, yeah. No, I was clapped up that day.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

Hell yeah.

[Baby D]

This was outside. Most of y'all smelling like fish.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yo, he was outside and he had clam chowder in his underwear. He had clamped chowder in his underwear.

[Damaris]

Summer 09. I'm telling you, shit was wild.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yo, you a wild boy. I never that chlamydia with Michael Jackson.

[Damaris]

I'll never Forget walking into 790 Concourse Village west when I was leaving the hospital. Clapped up. All my homies stood up in unison and did a round of applause.

[Cupid Valentino]

Get you to clap.

[Baby D]

Why would you tell them that, though?

[Damaris]

Because I was nervous and they had all had to clap too. It was kind of like a.

[Cupid Valentino]

Right. Yeah, somebody had to walk.

[Baby D]

Dirty dick. Rite of passage.

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh, my God. That is hilarious.

[Baby D]

I hear it.

[Cupid Valentino]

It.

[Damaris]

That is not Concourse Village. Is that what they did to it?

[Cupid Valentino]

No, that's not the. That's the. That's the.

[Damaris]

That's not Concord.

[Cupid Valentino]

That's not con. That's the building on the concourse. Flavor Flav grew up in that building. He lived in that building.

[Damaris]

I don't know if right there is Concourse Village.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Baby D]

Well, since we're talking about Valentine's Day, do you guys want to do the Valentine's Day voice mes before we get into music?

[Cupid Valentino]

Let's do it, cuz. I. I need to. I need to figure out who we going to put you on a date with, make sure you safe.

[Baby D]

But you know that the contest wasn't just open to just me. It was open to everybody on the podcast.

[Cupid Valentino]

I mean, it was open to you, though. Like, who we going to. Going to date with?

[Damaris]

What you mean?

[Baby D]

What you mean?

[Damaris]

You. You have admitted to a fan before. You said you never go back. But we have attracted fans.

[Cupid Valentino]

Never again. We'll never do it.

[Damaris]

She was the one too.

[Cupid Valentino]

No, she was not. What? What you mean? She was.

[Damaris]

I told you I was hating.

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh, okay. Yeah, she was. She was.

[Baby D]

I mean, I don't know.

[Cupid Valentino]

Ma.

[Baby D]

We did get a couple submissions for you. Josh. Josh informed me that we got a. A couple submissions for you.

[Damaris]

And let's. Let's make it clear. Maul did agree that he would go on this date.

[Baby D]

He did agree. He did.

[Damaris]

So you can't go back on your word. That is recorded, too.

[Cupid Valentino]

Okay, So I gotta. So I gotta. We're gonna play something for me today.

[Baby D]

[Cupid Valentino]

Yo, this is crazy.

[Damaris]

No, we agree, Joel. It's in the fine print. It's recorded. I'm driving both y'all dates around.

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh, my God.

[Damaris]

I'm gonna rent, cuz y'all not getting my car.

[Baby D]

Why your car got mad backseat room?

[Damaris]

IARA threw up on that, like, yesterday.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, it's n. Let him print something. Cuz if the day goes well, I might want to do something in that back seat, so.

[Baby D]

Yeah, you can't do.

[Damaris]

I don't want to do nothing with me driving.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, why not? You my man. I can't get some head in the backseat while you driving. So you ain't a good friend, dog.

[Baby D]

Nope. He hater.

[Damaris]

What happens when I have to check my mirrors for safety?

[Cupid Valentino]

He gotta check mirrors. This. Check mirrors when he dropping. Check mirrors. Drive. Check your mirrors.

[Baby D]

What you parallel parking you and he.

[Cupid Valentino]

And you know he got a camera, so he don't even need to look in the mirror. He got a camera right there to see when he back in the reverse Looking in the mirror.

[Damaris]

Funny. Starting summer 09, going wild. Getting chlamydia, Michael Jackson. All I had a 1993 Chevy Malibu with no power steering and no rear view mirror. When I got another car, I forgot that people had rearview mirrors.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

Like, I was like, oh, I forgot that was a thing.

[Cupid Valentino]

I could use this thing. I could use this thing. Don't need.

[Damaris]

I never checked a mirror in my.

[Cupid Valentino]

You don't need no rear view mirror. That mirror.

[Damaris]

And even when I'm switching lanes, it's a feeling. Is there a car or not?

[Cupid Valentino]

No, you need. No, no, no, no, no.

[Damaris]

You need the outside feeling.

[Cupid Valentino]

You need the outside Mir. The mirror inside. You don't need that when you.

[Damaris]

When you. Dom Toretto for real. It's a feeling if they're on the side.

[Cupid Valentino]

Feel it.

[Baby D]

The only thing you need the rearview mirror for is to make sure that that black car behind you ain't a cop. Like, when you try to figure, is that a cop or not a cop?

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah. Crack them windows.

[Damaris]

Wait, but also, we. We agreed that there would be a GoPro right where the rear view is. So, I mean, can we monetize your sex?

[Cupid Valentino]

No. No. I didn't know we was. We was recording and all of that.

[Baby D]

I. Yeah, it's content. What, you thought we was just going to send you on a date and.

[Cupid Valentino]

Just hope you get some and then talk about it?

[Damaris]

No, we going to put the sex. He's really in it.

[Cupid Valentino]

8.

[Damaris]

That's going to be the title.

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh, my God. No, let's do. We can listen to some of the voicemails, though.

[Baby D]

Let's do first voicemail. Okay.

[Cupid Valentino]

I didn't order. I didn't order hot chocolate and fish.

[Damaris]

Boy.

[Baby D]

Hello, can I speak to Mom?

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh, hey.

[Baby D]

How you doing? I feel kind of silly doing this, but this is a nurse from Toronto. Yeah, I'm living in NY now, you know, a big fan of the pot. Yeah, well, I see you on my screen all the time and, well, I want to win this day and see you in person. And my man be tripping, not acting right, talking about. I'm sorry, babe. Truth is, I wouldn't mind seeing you on the other side of that dinner table. And I bet a hug from you feel like jumping in a pile of fresh laundry. Can't imagine how the.

[Damaris]

Let me stop.

[Baby D]

Anyways, you always got some flashing on, but I think you look flier next to me, so go on now and just pick me. If not, I hope y'all enjoy the creative take all. Stay blessed.

[Cupid Valentino]

That was very creative.

[Baby D]

She Got me giggling. I'm over here blushing.

[Damaris]

I'm hard.

[Cupid Valentino]

All right, man. All right, man. Just.

[Baby D]

All right, let's.

[Cupid Valentino]

You want to bring that back?

[Damaris]

She went crazy.

[Baby D]

Calibrate.

[Cupid Valentino]

That was very, very creative. I like that. All right.

[Damaris]

I mean, out the gate, is that not the winner?

[Cupid Valentino]

It sounded.

[Damaris]

It's.

[Cupid Valentino]

She might be the strongest one. That might be the best one so far that we, we, we.

[Damaris]

Listen, you don't know my name. She said the nurse from Toronto, though. I feel like. Is that something that maybe only you two would understand, that we wouldn't like? She started with a little subliminal.

[Cupid Valentino]

I think she was trying to like.

[Damaris]

Like you saw a nurse in Toronto?

[Cupid Valentino]

No, I think she was playing off of the whole, you know, Alicia Keys thing. The waitress from the.

[Damaris]

Yeah, no, I get that.

[Cupid Valentino]

I've never been to a hospital.

[Damaris]

I get that. But Alicia Keys was telling Mos Def he had been to that spot. I'm the waitress at the diner you go to.

[Cupid Valentino]

Right.

[Damaris]

Did you go to a hospital in Toronto?

[Cupid Valentino]

Maybe she worked. No, I didn't go to a hospital in Toronto.

[Baby D]

Well, we have a. We have another one for you. Mall.

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh, yeah?

[Baby D]

Yeah.

[Cupid Valentino]

All right, well, let's see the next one.

[Baby D]

You got to pick your. Your favorite one and then the other one. It will go against the ones that we've already done.

[Cupid Valentino]

All right, bet.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Baby D]

This message is from Mall. I just have a question. Why are we strangers in this life? Your spirit is familiar. So I can tell that in our past lives we meant something to each other. So why not in this one? We need to fix that. Because I hate when things are meant to be but aren't. This is any secret admiration. You know who I am. Let me know when you're ready.

[Damaris]

Here's the thing. I like the nurse a lot. She gonna rock your world. But here's the thing. You gotta be careful of bitches that are into the moon because that will backfire eventually.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, she said first night it'll be.

[Damaris]

The greatest thing on earth. Yeah, but once. Once the tides start shifting. Yeah, that's a liability.

[Baby D]

Yeah.

[Cupid Valentino]

She said energy feels familiar. But she said we know each other in another life. Yeah, the.

[Damaris]

The nurse is gonna give you a hitting right there. A beautiful like make out session in the rain. It's gonna be great. She's talking about kids. That's a longevity one.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

That is gonna rock your world. First night, change your diaper, everything.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, I agree. I think her energy was very. Let's cut the. Let's get straight to it. The nurse Sounds like the wife. The second lady. I don't know what she. What? Did she even have a job? What did she do?

[Damaris]

No, she just reads crystals. She sells crystals on Amazon.

[Baby D]

That's a job.

[Damaris]

I'm not saying it's not.

[Cupid Valentino]

It's not a job. I bet it is.

[Damaris]

Her and Alex Jones sell vitamins.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah. Damn. The first one was very creative. The first one was. Was very, very creative. The second one was very, like, stop playing with me. I want you. Let's do this right to it. I don't know. I feel like. Damn. Let me think on it. Let me think on it. By the end of the episode, I'll choose who to be.

[Damaris]

Who do you think would give you the handy in the backseat? Cause the nurse might be the sleeper there. She acts like the good girl. Yeah, but she might try to get, like, right to it, even before dinner.

[Cupid Valentino]

Like, we could nurse. We could kind of play like, I'm sick a little bit till I have a headache, and then, like, pull my pants down. Like, my. My head hurts.

[Baby D]

Oh, wrong. Okay.

[Damaris]

You know, put a thermometer in my ass.

[Cupid Valentino]

Like, take a temperature.

[Damaris]

I took it too far.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, she's not putting my ass. Put a thermometer in my ass. Take my. I have a fever. And bend over.

[Baby D]

I'll cool you down.

[Damaris]

I'll cool you down.

[Cupid Valentino]

I have a fever.

[Damaris]

Okay, while you think on that, do we have some for Baby D?

[Baby D]

All right, but well, wait, because we do have one more. Okay, there was three. I messed up. There's one more. We're gonna play.

[Damaris]

He got him.

[Baby D]

While you think on the other two. Okay. And try to figure out if you know them, because one says she's a nurse from Toronto. One says, you already know who I am. So let's play the third one and see what the third one says.

[Damaris]

Greetings. Roaring Baby D. Baby D, Is this my guy? This is Eric from KC Again, and.

[Cupid Valentino]

I wanted to give you a call.

[Damaris]

And thank you for featuring me first.

[Cupid Valentino]

In the Valentine's Day challenge.

[Damaris]

I do realize the rules only permit one entry per cast member, but I felt away because ball had gotten a voicemail yet, so. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

[Cupid Valentino]

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

[Damaris]

Is this the tongue tyrant going after Maul, too?

[Cupid Valentino]

Wait, wait, wait. Time out, Time out.

[Baby D]

A little jealous.

[Cupid Valentino]

Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, fam. I don't want to run.

[Damaris]

We can save some money. I'll take him out with both y'all, fam.

[Cupid Valentino]

I don't want to be nowhere.

[Damaris]

Who's sitting middle?

[Cupid Valentino]

Nah, Fam, who's sitting middle?

[Baby D]

No, I was like, y'all playing. I'm mad. How you gonna, like, call for more, too?

[Cupid Valentino]

No, baby, you ain't got nothing to be. You can have this. He ain't talking to me. That's all.

[Damaris]

You know he's about to talk to you.

[Cupid Valentino]

Nah, I'm cool with clay, metaphorically speaking.

[Damaris]

And sculpted a unique Valentine's Day piece.

[Cupid Valentino]

Just for Mr. Y'all know the last thing.

[Damaris]

So let me know if I can.

[Cupid Valentino]

Call back and share this wonderful gift with the world.

[Damaris]

Oh, wait, so he just call back here? He's just asking permission to shoot at mall.

[Cupid Valentino]

No.

[Damaris]

Oh, that's gallant. That's like.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, well, he missed the deadline. You know what, Galen?

[Damaris]

We'll have him reach out to Mal's pops, get permission before.

[Cupid Valentino]

He better not call my dad. My dad is an old school. He called my dad. My dad gonna get cancele. What kind of biman business is this?

[Damaris]

What's funny is sending a poem to Damaris. And it's even gayer that he asked permission to you.

[Cupid Valentino]

He's like, I didn't want to leave him out.

[Damaris]

I don't want to be disrespectful.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, now leave me out, fan.

[Damaris]

He really trying to court you.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Baby D]

Leaving me like, you just so. You just wanted me to get next to my homeboy. Like, that's like you breaking bisexual rules.

[Cupid Valentino]

And then me being the homeboy he trying to get next to is even crazy. Like, do he not listen to the show?

[Damaris]

Maybe he think you the one.

[Cupid Valentino]

Nah, I'm definitely not, fam. But that was gay.

[Damaris]

Is that thing in a gay community trying to, like, make straight people gay? Like, some take it as a challenge. That's maybe what he's thinking.

[Cupid Valentino]

Nah, this ain't no challenge.

[Damaris]

Like, you're the final boss.

[Cupid Valentino]

Nah, I'm cool. But how he going? I thought I liked him for Baby D. I thought his poem was dope.

[Baby D]

You know? You literally told him, said that he was gonna put me in the trunk. Now you thought the poem was dope?

[Cupid Valentino]

I mean, listen, man, he's a little poetic. He's a little special, but, you know, it's poetic. It's okay.

[Damaris]

I think that was the okay for him to send the poem. No.

[Cupid Valentino]

To who? Me? No, no, definitely not me. So you just.

[Damaris]

You just said you liked his work, and he's.

[Cupid Valentino]

He's gonna say, well to his work to Baby D, not to me.

[Damaris]

Or if Baby D ends up picking him, we could then drive after the date to your date and he could do his poem in person to you.

[Cupid Valentino]

Nah, I'm cool.

[Baby D]

But he didn't win. One of them girls that called Maul definitely won the challenge. I think that both of them were better.

[Damaris]

I have my winner, but, you know, it's not my decision. Who you thinking?

[Cupid Valentino]

What do you say, Peach nurse or Crystal lady?

[Felipe Esparza]

Nurse.

[Cupid Valentino]

Say nurse. All right, man. So we gotta go with the nurse nursing.

[Baby D]

You ain't asked. You just asked peas. You didn't ask anybody.

[Cupid Valentino]

I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Who do you say, Baby D?

[Baby D]

I would say Crystal Lady.

[Cupid Valentino]

Crystal Lady.

[Damaris]

I think you should go nurse because Crystal lady's gonna show up anyways, whether.

[Cupid Valentino]

We like it or not, right?

[Damaris]

You don't need to pick. She gonna be there so you can make that decision. If it doesn't work out with the nurse.

[Cupid Valentino]

I thought I told you that I knew you in another life.

[Damaris]

She got your location in her brain.

[Baby D]

Josh, what about you? Who you picking?

[Cupid Valentino]

I think he should wait and hear what this guy has to say.

[Damaris]

Josh said wait it out. Let Eric woo you, sweep you off your feet.

[Cupid Valentino]

Hear this guy out. Like, hear what he has to say. So cool.

[Damaris]

I mean, I'm not sure if Crystal LA lady is on planet Earth. She didn't say her location, but we know nurses. We know the nurse is in New York, so we can pick her up. I'm deadly serious about this entire date. I already ordered the cap and everything.

[Baby D]

So we picking up nurse. We doing nurse. Final answer.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, I guess nurse it is.

[Baby D]

Okay, well, I'm gonna come out and admit that the other one was me, so I'm mad. I lost.

[Cupid Valentino]

Wait, what?

[Baby D]

So he was me? Yes.

[Damaris]

Wait, did you change your voice in AI?

[Baby D]

No, that was my voice. That's my. My voice. That's. Y'all don't know that voice because y'all don't see me in that light.

[Cupid Valentino]

But that's what I play out again, man. Yeah.

[Baby D]

This message is from mall. I just have a question. Why are we strangers in this?

[Damaris]

See, now I hear it.

[Baby D]

Your spirit is familiar. So I can tell that in our past lives, we meant something to each other. So why not in this one? We need to fix that because I hate when things are meant to be, but aren't. This isn't any secret.

[Cupid Valentino]

I heard it right There aren't. I should have heard the art. It was the art.

[Damaris]

They gonna kill us in the comments because they probably listen to AirPods. AirPods. I could hear that.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, yeah.

[Damaris]

This distinct beat.

[Baby D]

Spill.

[Damaris]

Yeah, I didn't catch it.

[Cupid Valentino]

I would have never caught that, baby.

[Baby D]

First of all, y'all don't call me all types of to my face. I'm just gonna.

[Cupid Valentino]

Stupid.

[Damaris]

This probably an Aries.

[Baby D]

Like, y'all was eating me up. When he was like, what you think her job is? We're like, she ain't got no job. I'm like.

[Damaris]

And now Damaris defended herself and said, yo, n. That's a job.

[Cupid Valentino]

You know, that's a job. Like I said. She said, no, that's a job. Like, hey.

[Damaris]

So I was right. She gonna show up either way.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, she gonna be there either way. Yo, that is hilarious, Baby D. You are stupid for that, man. What's wrong with you?

[Damaris]

Where do you want to take the nurse? Where. Where we setting this. This date up? And are we doing a double date or we just doing separate two men?

[Baby D]

It's just her. It's him and the nurse.

[Damaris]

Yeah, but you gotta pick one eventually, too.

[Baby D]

No, it's just he. That's the winner. There was one overall winner.

[Damaris]

All right.

[Cupid Valentino]

But, nah, baby, we gotta get you on a date with somebody. You trippin'I.

[Baby D]

Can find my own dates. I'm cool.

[Cupid Valentino]

No, that's not the point.

[Baby D]

She won the contest. She. It was only one entry per person. She won the contest.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yo, that is hilarious, Baby D. I would have never guessed that that was you. But the aunt. The aunt. I should have, like, she sound like she from somewhere. Where, Baby D. From the aunt.

[Damaris]

And you tried to record it away from the mic so we wouldn't really hear.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, you put the filter on there.

[Baby D]

No, it wasn't. I was in the bathroom. Y'all were all here. I did.

[Damaris]

Oh, that's what that echo is earlier.

[Baby D]

Yeah, the echo was I was in the bathroom, and. Oh, yeah, Josh knew I was gonna do it. So when I was on my YouTube live earlier, they were like, who won the contest or who are you gonna pick? And I was like, well, mall has a good submission. And then they were like, yo, you should leave Mall one. And I'm like, I should leave Mall one. Oh, no. I was saying, I had mad game. That's why men don't approach me. I said, I got mad game. That's why men don't approach me. They said, you should leave Mall a voicemail. So that's what I did.

[Cupid Valentino]

Did. Okay.

[Baby D]

Yeah. But Josh knew what was happening.

[Damaris]

She just put herself in a bad position. Right. Cuz when she does sue you for sexual harassment, we could play that and be like, yo, your honor. Yeah, she wanted it.

[Cupid Valentino]

She was throwing it.

[Damaris]

It's recorded.

[Cupid Valentino]

It's recorded. Thank you.

[Damaris]

Baby D. Just got yourself out of that settlement.

[Cupid Valentino]

There we go. Walk out the.

[Damaris]

All right, so we will reach out to. To Toronto nurse. I cannot wait versus Benner.

[Cupid Valentino]

What if Benner was in the bathroom leaving a message.

[Damaris]

Over the you don't know my name instrumental is even crazier. We'll get her schedule, but I'd imagine a Thursday, right?

[Cupid Valentino]

Why Thursday?

[Damaris]

See, you don't even know the song. That's crazy.

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh, from the. Oh, okay, I get. I see what you did.

[Damaris]

No, you got a riz. You got a riz back.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, I got it. I got it. Thank you. Yeah, no, whatever. Whatever day works for her, works for me.

[Baby D]

What if she ugly, though?

[Cupid Valentino]

Mom, it's just one.

[Damaris]

She didn't sound ugly at all.

[Cupid Valentino]

I've been fooled plenty of times with.

[Damaris]

With voice notes. Yes.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

Type of nasty catfish you doing out here? The party line.

[Baby D]

No, some people's voice really doesn't sound. Cuz I. I'm not ugly, but my voice doesn't sound. It doesn't match how I look because I've definitely.

[Cupid Valentino]

Like.

[Baby D]

I remember when I was voice ba. Remember when I was like, I'm Mike, but I wasn't on camera and nobody knew what I looked like. When I finally got on camera, all the comments were like, oh, she didn't look how I thought she would look from her voice. I was like, damn. Like, I voice. Yeah, that's up.

[Damaris]

Well, will you come with me on the date with them? Yeah, sit in the front seat.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, but Baby D, she gotta have a date.

[Baby D]

No, I don't. She won the contest. I don't have to have a date, all right? I'm there to film content.

[Cupid Valentino]

I thought that's what we. I thought that's what we agreed on.

[Damaris]

No, I thought so too.

[Baby D]

It was one.

[Damaris]

I thought it was. I thought it was a winner between each one.

[Baby D]

Winner.

[Cupid Valentino]

All right, so it's gonna be you.

[Baby D]

Me, and Rory be swerving and stunting in the front seat, though.

[Cupid Valentino]

It's all good. Good. I'm going to be swerving and stunting in the back seat. Just don't turn around.

[Damaris]

Do you have a restaurant in mind?

[Cupid Valentino]

Nah. Boy, you can think of something.

[Baby D]

Red Lobster.

[Cupid Valentino]

Red Lobster.

[Damaris]

You should take her. Like we should take her to your old block, like so she can really get to know you.

[Cupid Valentino]

Block?

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Cupid Valentino]

I would never take no no girl to my old block. She crazy. She like this where you grew up at?

[Damaris]

I'll see if your sister can come in town. Like so she can meet the family.

[Cupid Valentino]

Nah, hell no.

[Baby D]

What if y'all get, like, Nathan's hot dog? It's like, when it starts getting warmer, Nathan's hot dogs sit outside Yankee Stadium and, like, kick it. I got some cool shit.

[Cupid Valentino]

Why not just go inside Yankee Stadium?

[Damaris]

Cause they don't serve Nathan.

[Cupid Valentino]

Just go sit outside Yankee Stadium.

[Baby D]

That's not.

[Cupid Valentino]

And listen to the game. Like, yo, I think somebody hit a double. Just go to the fucking game. Sit outside Yankee Stadium is crazy. You know what part of the Bronx is? You know what Jerome Avenue was going on. You crazy as hell not sitting on Jerome Avenue.

[Damaris]

Speed of Nathan. You go to Coney island, maybe do. Do, like, some of the rides. We could set up the GoPro. It could look like he got game. Y'all could.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah. Yeah. No, I'm not gonna do that.

[Baby D]

Oh, no.

[Damaris]

Yeah, I'm not.

[Baby D]

No. By that point, they'll already be. There'll be an item by June. The way she give it up up, she gonna woo Maul immediately. Just off that voicemail, I know he's gonna be at. At his knees after Coney Island. We should do this next week.

[Baby D]

I don't know, M. She might be the one you don't like girls with. Riz.

[Cupid Valentino]

She might be the one you don't like girls with.

[Baby D]

Riz.

[Cupid Valentino]

She was very creative. That was a very creative submission. I will say that.

[Damaris]

I took Amara to the big snow shit in Jersey. What could be a fun first date is the two of them going skiing.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah. Nah, we ain't gonna do that either.

[Baby D]

Like, we ain't going skin all, like, too many clothes.

[Cupid Valentino]

Nah. I mean, we could. We could go just dinner, talk. It's not loud, you know, get to, you know, I mean, kick it. Have some fun, have some laughs. You know what I mean? Something simple. Nothing too heavy.

[Damaris]

Can we. I mean, can we be at the table right next to you?

[Cupid Valentino]

Nah, that'd be. That's, like, weird.

[Baby D]

That's weird.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah. Like, right next to you.

[Damaris]

All right, a couple.

[Cupid Valentino]

Couple tables over, y'all can be outside in the car waiting.

[Damaris]

It's. First of all, I think I'm hungry.

[Baby D]

I'm gonna get some food, baby.

[Cupid Valentino]

You just told me to sit outside Yankee Stadium. Now you wanna come in and.

[Baby D]

Yeah, I would have had food outside that, too, but you're not gonna have me waiting in the car while you eating a full steak dinner.

[Cupid Valentino]

All right. So, yeah, we do dinner.

[Damaris]

I just want to be clear. Is the apocalypse is I am Legend happening right now? I've never heard a helicopter that loud.

[Baby D]

Yeah, that helicopter. It sound like it landed on the building.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, probably.

[Damaris]

Are we.

[Cupid Valentino]

The aliens are here.

[Damaris]

Don't we walk outside after, like. Oh, all right.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

It's over.

[Cupid Valentino]

So good.

[Damaris]

Hopefully the nurse is still good.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

All right, we have Music Friday. Big Music Friday. Valentine's Day.

[Cupid Valentino]

Big Music Friday. Big tune.

[Damaris]

I don't know if this is the case whatsoever, but I did see rumblings on the Internet that we're getting Eclipse album. We're recording this on the 13th, so.

[Cupid Valentino]

Okay.

[Damaris]

When you're hearing this, I could be completely right or completely wrong, but I did hear we may be getting Eclipse album tonight. Yeah.

[Cupid Valentino]

Okay. Interesting.

[Damaris]

Which is just gonna be stepping on more. I don't want to talk about on the spot. But the one we do know is some sexy songs for you.

[Cupid Valentino]

Some sexy songs for you. The long awaited and the long anticipated collaborative album from Drake and Party Next Door is officially releasing tonight. Well, if you're hearing this, it's already.

[Damaris]

Out in your phone.

[Cupid Valentino]

A lot of people have been waiting to hear this. They dropped a few snippets, a few videos that Drake and Party have posted. People like what they're hearing. And again, this is something that I think people wanted for a while, and we're finally getting it.

[Damaris]

I'm gonna put Maul in a compromising situation. Cause I know he loves Freddie Gibbs. Did they steal Freddie Gibbs entire creative with the rabbits and the S money through the whole thing? All the art direction look like Freddie Gibbs to me.

[Cupid Valentino]

I'm not gonna say they stole for.

[Baby D]

I'm not really jacking it.

[Cupid Valentino]

Okay.

[Damaris]

Have you seen the artwork?

[Baby D]

What? For some sexy songs for you?

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, yeah.

[Damaris]

So that it's not sold. Sold separately. Not the rap. All right, cool. Y'all got it. My bad.

[Cupid Valentino]

Listen, the dollar sign. Well, the dollar signs stands for the S's.

[Damaris]

No, no, I know, but Soul sold. It was the same thing. There was S's in Soul Soldiers separately.

[Cupid Valentino]

No, I get that part, but I don't think that they stole that from Freddie the Rabbit. I know Freddie calls herself Big Rabbit, Things like that. Yo, Big Rabbit.

[Baby D]

I don't. That's. Y'all. Y'all think that's a cool, like, rap nickname. I'm Big Rabbit.

[Cupid Valentino]

I said no. That's what Freddie calls off.

[Baby D]

I know, but I'm saying there was.

[Damaris]

He Rabbit. He won a few battles I wouldn't call myself that.

[Cupid Valentino]

It's big rabbit, right?

[Baby D]

Oh, it is big. Big bunny. Big bunny.

[Damaris]

They don't say rabbit.

[Cupid Valentino]

It's not big bunny. See Baby D making shit weird.

[Baby D]

How big bunny weird?

[Cupid Valentino]

It's not big bunny. Where you see big bunny at?

[Baby D]

That's a bunny.

[Cupid Valentino]

That's a rab rabbit.

[Baby D]

Tomato, tomato.

[Cupid Valentino]

No, it's not the same. Mice and mouse is different.

[Damaris]

Listen, I don't know, man. Drake took that from Gibbs. He took the scorpion from west side. I feel like Drake be paying attention to the underground and stealing. Stealing their sauce. That's all.

[Cupid Valentino]

You are never going to Toronto again. Like I'm just.

[Damaris]

You know.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, I know. You are never.

[Baby D]

You know me.

[Cupid Valentino]

You are never going to Toronto. Toronto.

[Damaris]

Wait, I have. I have been at your side for this whole thing. I better get a citizenship to Canada after this.

[Cupid Valentino]

It's over.

[Baby D]

You gotta wait outside. Yo being able to go to LA or Toronto is up.

[Damaris]

That's what's up.

[Cupid Valentino]

Where?

[Damaris]

I just would love that reality could set in with everyone. That I have been the most objective because both sides hate me. Tde and o. How could you be more ob them?

[Baby D]

Don't with you. Either I think you all up or.

[Damaris]

I'm actually the most objective person on the Internet. The Internet.

[Baby D]

Yeah. I agree.

[Cupid Valentino]

You think you're the most objective person on Internet? Yeah. Okay. That's what's up. Some sexy songs for you available now. Drake and Party next door.

[Damaris]

Have you heard any of this?

[Cupid Valentino]

No.

[Damaris]

Okay. That was a yes. All right. I'm excited to hear it. I really don't have much to this until we actually cover it on Monday. But I am excited for it. I love party.

[Cupid Valentino]

Some good Valentine's Day weekend. Some. Some R B. Yeah, I'm looking forward to this project.

[Baby D]

Rory, did you hear too? Did.

[Damaris]

I?

[Baby D]

You too did it. All right, I'm sorry.

[Damaris]

Calm down.

[Baby D]

Sorry. Sorry.

[Damaris]

I will say I was excited that new music Fridays that my song was above Cardi and Party. But as soon as I was doing the streaming farm for my record, it went right to the new Coy Larae song, which is Fire by the way away. And then right to toot it. That was my three. It was who Are you anyways to Coila Ray and I had to it on repeat. Even though it's like a. It's about 45 seconds the entire song. It was easy to keep up repeat. I miss old Cardi's tone. Like you could really tell that that was recorded eight years ago. I thought that was kind of like a Marketing plan that was definitely on the hard Drive from 10 years ago.

[Baby D]

No, it sounds like it's from 10 years ago.

[Cupid Valentino]

Wait, you like that record?

[Damaris]

Hell yeah.

[Baby D]

Model like it?

[Damaris]

What don't you like it about it?

[Cupid Valentino]

I just don't like it. It's like, you know what it is. I think it sounds very. The bar sound very like captiony very. Like. I've read this on social media before.

[Damaris]

So the. The party writes regarding.

[Cupid Valentino]

Huh.

[Baby D]

Not all of them, but I get what he's saying. But it's. The song is called Tooted. We knew. We know what it's for.

[Cupid Valentino]

No, we know what to expect. But even if it's called Toot, I just. Just the lyrics just felt like I read them somewhere before. Before. Like as they're saying them, I'm like, these are just quotes from social media.

[Damaris]

Like whatever girl puts as her caption. Sucking dick gets me wet. Point me to her ig.

[Cupid Valentino]

You've never seen girls tweet that before?

[Damaris]

I feel like I've heard a girl.

[Cupid Valentino]

If you hit refresh right now, girls tweeted that like, are you kidding me? Valentine's Day week and they definitely.

[Damaris]

I thought Zuckerberg suppressed all of that.

[Cupid Valentino]

Hell nah. Yeah, that's that. But I mean, I. I don't know. I just don't.

[Baby D]

It's cool.

[Cupid Valentino]

And then it's not for me at.

[Baby D]

The end of the day. Yeah, it's cool. I could hear myself twerking to it. I did. I put it on when I was in the gym.

[Cupid Valentino]

Damaris, I'm. I'm just. Go ahead and say this. I think you will twerk to anything.

[Baby D]

I twerk to at a jcole concert to love yours I will love.

[Cupid Valentino]

So you will twerk to anything. So when you say I twerk to it, that's like saying, yo, I got. I went no shower and I got wet. Like it's like, duh. Absolutely. That's what supposed to happen.

[Baby D]

You can tell that it is a Partisan Fontaine record that Cardi promised she would like put a verse on like a party record.

[Cupid Valentino]

But I think that's why I don't like it. Cuz I. Because I. I like Party Partisan so much like. And I respect his pen so much that I think I was just expecting to. I know where they going for with Tooted, but I just was expecting a little more slick and clever wordplay out of it.

[Baby D]

Do you fuck with Pardi's music though?

[Damaris]

Because.

[Baby D]

Yeah, okay.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Cupid Valentino]

I think Pardee's underrated. I don't like to say Party Cause people think we're talking about P and D Partisan, but I fuck with Partisan. Like, yeah, I think his album was underrated and that's one of my favorite joints on the album. But yeah, not absolutely. I like him a lot. I think he's super dope. But I just, this record just was like. It was from him and Carti. I expected just a little they would.

[Baby D]

Have just threw it out there when they filmed a video for it.

[Damaris]

I was like, well, that's why I will say I was wrong. When they had did the video and doing that announcement, I was like, well, this has to be part of Cardi's rollout. I don't think that at all now. Like that's just dead ass. Like a minute record that was on a hard drive.

[Baby D]

Yeah, that's a party record.

[Damaris]

I don't really know why they did that. Yeah, they could have kept it, but I I with it. I just don't know if it's going to catch because it does sound like eight years ago.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

And I think people are.

[Cupid Valentino]

Maybe that's, that's, maybe that's exactly what it is. But it sounds very, very captioning. I know that's part of the writing process now. You want to have those lines that people get easily and that they'll post and that girls will take that part of the song and tick tock it and this. I get that. But I just, it, it's just too obvious. I think with this record, for me, that's what it is.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Baby D]

I like if you're a ball player, toot, toot that ass. To toot that ass if you're a ball player. I'm trying to recruit that ass.

[Cupid Valentino]

That was cool. That was. I'm not mad at that. That was a little slick line. I ain't mad at that.

[Baby D]

I like that. I like that bar.

[Cupid Valentino]

But then that was it for me that I heard and I was like, oh, okay. You know what I mean?

[Felipe Esparza]

But I.

[Damaris]

That line was cool, but I'm more on the side. I'm a freak. Sucking dick gets me wet. That was, that was that part that I was like, oh, okay.

[Cupid Valentino]

That's the one that really.

[Baby D]

You post bikini pics and they be up the net.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, I get it now.

[Damaris]

They just ass naked. That's how you could tell it was eight years ago.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah. Bikini pig does nothing. She's wearing too much.

[Damaris]

Get this nun out of here.

[Cupid Valentino]

She's wearing too much. What is she moving Muslim? Oh, man, I'm sorry, man. I'm sorry. Weekend, hurry up. Tomorrow. We didn't talk about this album when it dropped, but I do like the album. I don't at this point. I think it's hard for the weekend to put out a bad album or a bad project. But this Hurry Up Tomorrow album is. Is dope. The one song that I wish he had a longer version of. I think it's called Opening Night. The Opening Nights, I think that record is. Is. Is dope. But the Weeknd is. You know, he's the Weeknd, man. There's nothing bad you can say about an artist like the Weeknd, but the album is dope. I enjoyed it, so. Yeah. I don't know about you, Roy.

[Damaris]

Did you hear it? Yeah, no, I did.

[Cupid Valentino]

The.

[Damaris]

The second half of it picked up the most to me.

[Cupid Valentino]

The intro is hard too. I like the intro a lot.

[Damaris]

Yeah. What do you guys think is going to stick from this project? That's kind of been my thing.

[Cupid Valentino]

It's the other thing, the thing that I'm kind of like, damn. But I understand it. Cause the week of those artists where he's not going to cut his art short, which is.

[Damaris]

I like.

[Cupid Valentino]

I. With a long album, though, it just.

[Damaris]

Wasn'T a lot that stuck. I liked it. But if their goal now is sticking, or maybe it's not. I'm just not sure what. What record is going to do it.

[Cupid Valentino]

The album is almost two hours, an hour and 45 minutes. Yeah. Probably a little less than that. But Opening Nights is. I. I love that open tonight. I love that joint. Honestly. Timeless. Well, timeless, obviously. Niagara Falls, I like. I think that's something that. That could stick. Just the music. It's a dope project. I like this album. I like this album a lot.

[Damaris]

Don't mind me.

[Cupid Valentino]

I didn't hear you, so I. I can't mind you. I didn't hear anything you said.

[Damaris]

Westside Gun is putting out 12, of course, the 12th edition of what's name?

[Cupid Valentino]

Hitler. Where's Hermes? What? That's what you mean? I didn't. I didn't say hell Hitler. I just said Hitler.

[Damaris]

I have the. I have the giggles today.

[Cupid Valentino]

I just said Hitler.

[Damaris]

Where IR no. 10 is my favorite. I just. I was mad that he had to call it 10.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, like 12. Come on, man.

[Damaris]

It ain't 12.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, no, it's not. We know what this.

[Damaris]

No. 12 came in and said, you can't call it that.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, 12 went up to the labels.

[Damaris]

To all my Jewish friends. I apologize for those jokes. This is my favorite Westside Gun series of everything that he does. So I am excited for this. Not because of what the name was originally, just based off the music.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

I feel like he goes a little extra with this series, so I'm very much excited for it. I think there was what, like 10 stove God features? Yeah, that's to be the first thing I put on at midnight.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

Damaris, you gonna put that on or.

[Cupid Valentino]

No, no, I'm.

[Baby D]

I'm cool. I'm cool. No, he's really good at rapping, but I don't listen to that kind of right where I'm really.

[Cupid Valentino]

I thought you would listen to that. I would listen. You listen to rap for real, like I do.

[Baby D]

But I would listen to it to say, oh, whether it's a good album or a bad album, but like on a dayto day, I'm not.

[Cupid Valentino]

You gonna go back to it?

[Damaris]

Yeah, yeah, I'm not gonna go back to that. Do you think you get me a Stove God feature? I have the song already.

[Baby D]

Yes.

[Damaris]

Okay. I'll. I'll pay cash too. Like you ain't even gotta no wires, no taxes. I mean, I'll drive with you up to Q. I don't even think he.

[Baby D]

Doesn'T even live there. But yeah, I can reach out and try to get you one.

[Damaris]

Okay. Because I. I got the joint. You do? Okay. Is there anything else that's coming out? I always hate doing like the Friday because I'd like to just cover this once it's actually out.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah. Cuz you never know what's officially really going to drop. So I hope that you know, I want to hear what the. What the clips do.

[Damaris]

I mean, all right. If we get a clips album tomorrow and it's as good as we think it already is, where am I at with my 2025 predictions?

[Baby D]

Yeah, we do got to run that back and see. See how you're doing. You getting up there.

[Damaris]

Because I said Clip's going to have rap album of the year 2025.

[Baby D]

You said Bruno Mars was coming back to take his throne, which that might.

[Damaris]

Be the only one I'm wrong about.

[Baby D]

I don't think that you're wrong about that at all. He's number one on. He got a Grammy and he's number one. He was number one on Billboard. So how. You were actually pretty right about that.

[Cupid Valentino]

Talking about the. The record with Lady Gaga.

[Baby D]

Yeah, that's a dope record.

[Damaris]

Liangelo balls. A record. Got that one. Peach said Sabrina Carpenter's coming out tonight too. Right. And I said her and Dochi gonna do a song. If Dochi on That tomorrow. Like, I better come with the Valentine's Day flowers when I walk in on Monday. Rihanna test the water to trick us. Already batting a th. Bruno Mars Cardi B says, tested the water. Yeah, she's going. She's on the Smurf project.

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh, okay.

[Baby D]

But you can't.

[Cupid Valentino]

But Rock Nation is doing that, right?

[Damaris]

Am I allowed? Yeah, okay.

[Baby D]

You can't pat yourself on the back until.

[Damaris]

Until it's official there's a Rihanna song on that project. You think she's just posting the Smurf.

[Baby D]

But you don't know if she's teasing you yet. That.

[Damaris]

That was my prediction, though.

[Baby D]

Oh, okay.

[Cupid Valentino]

I saw a billboard on the way to work today that was interesting. Disney has a movie coming out called Harlem Ice.

[Baby D]

No, I didn't see. Yeah, I haven't heard of that.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, I was like, what? This is nice. It's a bill. I was like, harlem Ice. I was like, I didn't even hear about this.

[Damaris]

Is you skating?

[Cupid Valentino]

I think it's about a black girl that's a figure skater.

[Baby D]

Young skaters from Harlem face challenges and triumphs. Have they.

[Cupid Valentino]

This is season.

[Damaris]

Season two.

[Cupid Valentino]

So when was season one?

[Baby D]

Yo, I'm crying.

[Cupid Valentino]

I gotta watch this. I said, harlem Ice. I never even heard of that.

[Baby D]

Oh, it's a five part documentary series, and it's. The first episode came out February 12, 2025.

[Cupid Valentino]

So when is. When is season two coming out? If the first episode came out.

[Baby D]

Yeah, that's not true. It's. It comes out. The first episode came out the other day yesterday.

[Cupid Valentino]

I gotta watch that. Harlem Ice Disney. Y'all gotta check it out.

[Damaris]

What's that pond? That's in Sugar Hill. Was that park in Sugar Hill?

[Cupid Valentino]

What park is that? Right there.

[Damaris]

Is that where it's shot?

[Cupid Valentino]

It might be.

[Damaris]

I just want to know where. Like, where the figures.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, that was interesting to see figure skaters, and I didn't even know that. That was dope. I gotta watch that. It said it's a documentary.

[Baby D]

Yeah, a five part documentary series.

[Cupid Valentino]

I gotta watch that. I saw the billboard and was like, disney, Harlem Ice. So then I automatically thought of, like, a black girl who's a figure skater skater from Harlem. Like, and what do you know? It's figure skaters in Harlem, Mal.

[Baby D]

I sent it to the Group Chat. I don't know if they showed it to you. When we were all in here, when Sean was plastering us with liquor and weed, there was this thing going on, I guess this Temptation Island. I don't know what country they're in. Does anybody know what country? They're in Spain. So there was. Did you see that?

[Cupid Valentino]

Did you see.

[Damaris]

Yo, don't. Don't act like y'all haven't been sitting there just screaming pork in your head.

[Cupid Valentino]

Not poor, K. I was a pork. You gotta roll.

[Damaris]

It's not pork.

[Cupid Valentino]

You say pork. Okay.

[Damaris]

Pork. Okay.

[Baby D]

Yeah, that ran across. You know how hard it is to run in sand?

[Cupid Valentino]

Wet sand. Like, he ran in the wet part of the sand.

[Damaris]

You gotta train for that.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, that's like running in mud.

[Damaris]

For those that don't know, there's this show that I'm sure Nick Lachey has.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, Nick Lachey has looked at his.

[Damaris]

Wife and said, why the fuck didn't we do this?

[Cupid Valentino]

No, Nick Lachey's behind this. He's definitely behind this.

[Damaris]

He's a ghost producer.

[Cupid Valentino]

100%. Absolutely.

[Damaris]

Which I don't even fully understand what this show is. I just saw the clip as well. It appears that Montoya is watching his girl get fucking mollywopped by another dude in a bed on camera, knowing where the hotel even is. The fact that you would put me that close where I could run knowing that was close.

[Cupid Valentino]

No, it looks like they're all living in the same house. Right? That type of thing. They're all in the same house. Different couples or different people that were in relationships. Relationships. And obviously his ex. Girl or his, you know, whoever is sleeping with another cast mate or another guy on the show. And they're letting. They took him to a remote part of the island thinking that Montoya wasn't gonna.

[Damaris]

Running distance.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah. Run back to the villa. Like he was showing his girl having sex to him. And the girl is telling him like, yo, calm down, calm down. So watching my girl get fucked.

[Baby D]

The purpose of this show, right, obviously, is Temptation Islands. They put a bunch of couples in a villa with a bunch of attractive singles to watch chaos ensue.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Baby D]

Now, the backstory between Montoya and Anita is that she watched him get a lap dance and she figured that that was like cheating. So that's why she said you were the first one to mess things up.

[Cupid Valentino]

But that's girl math.

[Baby D]

Listen, I'm always. I really going to somebody getting dug out cause your got a lap dance is on national TV is crazy.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, she's wild for that. That's absolutely insane. A lap dance does not equate to me having sex with a woman.

[Damaris]

She was currently cheating before that show. There's no way that she was that comfortable on camera getting drilled like that.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

Over a lap dance. No, she. She Been.

[Baby D]

And the rules are you're not supposed to see or like, you're not supposed to, like, be physical with your partner that you're there with. You're not supposed to hug them, kiss them, no, nothing. So she broke the rules. If you saw in the clip, the second clip, the lady kept saying, you're breaking the rules. You're breaking the rules. Cuz she ran up to him and she hugged him like, please, please don't leave. Like, yeah, she ran up to Montoya.

[Cupid Valentino]

No, Montoya ran up to her.

[Baby D]

I mean, no, afterwards, like, can you imagine?

[Damaris]

She's a girl after being on camera by someone else trying to hug you.

[Cupid Valentino]

That is crazy.

[Felipe Esparza]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

She needs more security.

[Cupid Valentino]

What is with these social experiments? Why would they put people through this type of shit?

[Baby D]

Why would you volunteer to go through that?

[Cupid Valentino]

And it seems like every year they find a whole new group of people that's willing to go through the. They just watched at home the year before, like, oh, yeah, let's go do that.

[Damaris]

No, if Clay can start speaking Spanish, he gonna be on season two for sure.

[Cupid Valentino]

Speaking of Clay, he got a. Clay got a. Hold on. Let me get my phone.

[Damaris]

You got to get your other phone. Is crazy. To get the Clay phone is nuts.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, no, this. This, the. This the. This the social media phone Clay got. He's doing something with Boost Mobile, I think, and he posted it.

[Damaris]

Oh, shout out. My guy. Getting bags.

[Cupid Valentino]

I guess we could put the clip somewhere peach. So Clay is on here talking about, like, people are hitting him up. He's like this relationship guru, love guru. Now it's a Boost. It's a Boost Mobile ad. Shout out to our guy, Clay. I laughed at this clip. Get your money for about 10 minutes last night. Left a comment. Clay responded back laughing. I'm like, dog, Clay. It's hard not to love Clay, bro. He's leaning into this whole shit. But it is dope that he was able to land this deal in this partnership with Boost Mobile. So shout out to Clay.

[Baby D]

Oh, go ahead, Rory.

[Damaris]

Clay admitting that he likes promiscuous women. Do you think he would have a Montoya moment if he ended up in this situation, though? Like, you like. You like those type of women?

[Cupid Valentino]

No, no, Clay would.

[Damaris]

Which is cool. I appreciate that you were honest about it. But if you wife one of them, there's a high chance chance that you could get Montoya.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, but I think in. In this scenario, Clay would be the one doing the.

[Baby D]

For sure.

[Damaris]

No, I don't know, man. Sometimes that karma creep up.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, but I Don't think it would happen on the show. That would happen, like, away from the show. To Clay on with the cameras on. Clay's gonna make sure any man that will leave a woman at the altar.

[Damaris]

In a dress is okay.

[Cupid Valentino]

He's. He's in the house for sure. Absolutely. Shout out to Clay.

[Felipe Esparza]

Man.

[Damaris]

I really need to tune into that full show, though, because I only saw that clip. I have to know. Know what else is going on.

[Cupid Valentino]

And the fact you got to read the subtitles because it's in Spanish. Love it. No.

[Damaris]

He was so hurt. He said he someone that can't even read.

[Cupid Valentino]

He called him a Muppet. He was like that Muppet.

[Damaris]

That's who you was.

[Baby D]

No, the dude called him a Muppet. Oh, the dude when he was his girl.

[Damaris]

Right.

[Baby D]

Right before he. This girl. He called him a Muppet.

[Damaris]

That's why I feel like you got to kill has to be fake.

[Cupid Valentino]

I don't know.

[Damaris]

There's no way that that could be real because everyone's dying.

[Cupid Valentino]

That look like real emotions, bro.

[Damaris]

Pam, the producer next. Everyone's dying like you. The fact that that TV even stayed up is crazy to me that he dropped it that whole run. Everyone's dying.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, that gotta be fake. It gotta. That gotta be fake.

[Baby D]

I think it's real.

[Cupid Valentino]

You think they was really in there having sex?

[Baby D]

Yeah. Yeah, I think they was in there pounding.

[Cupid Valentino]

Really? I think that's fake. I'm sorry. I think that is all for the camera. Cameras. There's no way that's a real. That Back to what I said earlier. People do not. This does not happen.

[Baby D]

It does. I think. I think people in other countries are wilder than us when it comes to stuff like that.

[Damaris]

Oh, for sure.

[Baby D]

Especially passion. Passion countries. Spanish speaking countries.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

What do you call them?

[Baby D]

Passion countries?

[Damaris]

I got nothing, man.

[Baby D]

Oh, y'all gonna act like y'all never. Yeah, like y'all don't see.

[Damaris]

No, I'm passionate about the group uptown.

[Cupid Valentino]

Like, that's. That's I'm passionate about.

[Damaris]

Dyckman is a passion Broadway in itself.

[Cupid Valentino]

Them let's you sell dope on their block. You one of their girls.

[Damaris]

And I order passion hookah when I get there.

[Cupid Valentino]

You go get killed. One of them girls up there. That's for sure.

[Damaris]

No, they're. I think they have more lenience with, like, cheating and other partners than we do over here, but that type of. No, everyone. Everyone is dying.

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh, man. Shout out to Montoya. Shout out to.

[Damaris]

Shout out to Montoya.

[Cupid Valentino]

Shout out to Por.

[Damaris]

How do you go back To. To Thanksgiving giving. After that, after, like, we gave Clay a lot of. And like, he was on tv and I understand reputation. His mother's super religious. That's got to be a tough thing to go back for holidays. After you on tv, what is the pre conversation with all family members when Christmas comes around? Like, all right, I'm gonna have to be very gentle with Montoya. No one bring up. And you know, there's always one uncle or two that's gonna have to throw one shot at.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, absolutely. I don't think you gotta just lean into it, man. We on tv. We stars. Now, obviously this is viral. Everybody know knows us. While it does look crazy, again, I'm on the side that a lot of this shit is scripted and fake, but if it is real, I mean, families have crazier stories.

[Damaris]

One of his uncles, he passed the Mac Porque.

[Cupid Valentino]

Speaking of porque, we are going to be joined by a very, very funny guest, Mr. Felipe Esparaza.

[Damaris]

That's a wild transition and a racist one at that.

[Cupid Valentino]

I'm sure Felipe would love it, man. That's our guy. Shout out to Felipe Esperaza. We'll be joining him soon, so let's get into. All right, Rory. Today we are joined by a very special guest. And I say special because not only is he funny, but he has a weird way of thinking. Because on my way home last night, we were talking about him, and as soon as I got home and turned my TV on, he was the face on my screen. So I got a little scared. I'm like, okay, this guy's everywhere. But we are joined by the very funny, the legendary Felipe Esparza.

[Damaris]

Yes.

[Felipe Esparza]

What's up, everybody? What's up, fool?

[Cupid Valentino]

Now, Felipe, you got your new special out. Raging Fool. Yes, Chris. I wanted to watch it last night. Night I didn't get a chance to watch it, but I will watch it tonight. It just came out, I believe Tuesday or Wednesday. So talk to us, man. How you feeling being in New York?

[Felipe Esparza]

I'm good, man. I like it out here. It's cool.

[Cupid Valentino]

It's not your first time, though?

[Felipe Esparza]

No, I've been here a long before I came here the first time in 19, around two in 2000.

[Cupid Valentino]

Okay.

[Felipe Esparza]

That was my first time. 24 year, 25 years ago, I was doing a. A part of a. A tour. We had a funny. We had like a. Comedy Central had Premium Blend at the time, and HBO had Def Jam.

[Cupid Valentino]

So you won last comic standing, right?

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Cupid Valentino]

Okay.

[Felipe Esparza]

Yeah, I want, you know, funny man. I won last comic standing. And $250,000. A quarter of a million dollars. And then my. My son's mom, she filed for child support the next day.

[Damaris]

That was just convenient timing. And she was going to file that day regardless.

[Felipe Esparza]

She was my biggest voter. She was the last baby mama standing.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Felipe Esparza]

White tennis shoes for everyone.

[Damaris]

Did they say the amount when he won? Yeah, that's up. See, they should have kept that to themselves. You could have said it was like, yo, it was like five grand.

[Felipe Esparza]

She had the county on hold. Hold on.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, let me make sure he wins.

[Damaris]

It's on cable.

[Felipe Esparza]

So just check this out. The. The county was going to go straight to NBC and grab the whole check. Right. But NBC talked to me before, okay. And I made friends with everybody. I'm the kind of guy that walks in like, I'll roll somebody on the way. Hey, what's up? You know, like, what's up, Rick Fox?

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Felipe Esparza]

You know, like this.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Damaris]

I can never unsee that.

[Felipe Esparza]

Ready, bro? You know what's up, Gary Owen? You know what's up. Easy, fast, bro. And yeah, man. And so I got to know everybody, bro. That's the guy who called me look for igno, you know?

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, yeah.

[Felipe Esparza]

And I was told. They walked up to me go, hey, man, child support going to come after you.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah. Oh, they told you that?

[Felipe Esparza]

Yeah. And they goes, they gave me some. They gave me advice. They said, I want you incorporate yourself. We'll write the check to the corporation.

[Cupid Valentino]

You're right.

[Felipe Esparza]

Then you could just cut a check.

[Cupid Valentino]

Right.

[Felipe Esparza]

Of the right amount to the county. That's what I did.

[Damaris]

Yeah. That's. That's how I got out of my child support. We did an LLC together. So now mall is just as responsible for everything that I owe my baby mother.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

It's called co parenting.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Felipe Esparza]

Because I had another. I have another son. And because I remember I was. I wrote a body of the bed because I used to be a horrible person. I used to sell marijuana to my son's mom's new husband. Yeah.

[Damaris]

What about that is horrible.

[Felipe Esparza]

I would take his money and give it to her. Child support.

[Cupid Valentino]

Just keep it in the family. Yeah.

[Felipe Esparza]

My 420 pyramid scheme.

[Damaris]

To me, that's you being a mature co parent. It.

[Felipe Esparza]

Yeah, man. He came up to me, Felipe, I feel like quitting. Come on, bro. Think of your family.

[Cupid Valentino]

All right, so talk to us about raging food. Comedy special, man.

[Felipe Esparza]

A special was like a lot of jokes, man. I hope it. A lot of jokes, man. More jokes than you ever seen. Like, the best jokes. I'm not trying to talk the best jokes ever seen, but I packed in a lot of jokes all into a special. I remember reading an article about Ronnie Dangerfield, and He did, like, 54 minutes in Las Vegas, and I think he had, I'm guessing, 76 punch lines in the. Joe in the, like, back to back. One line and one, like.

[Cupid Valentino]

His style was very quick hit. Yeah.

[Felipe Esparza]

Yeah. So that's why I like to do it. I like to, like, tell a little story, but not too long. You know, I talk slow. I'm gonna lose people. So I have a lot of jokes in the special, like, back to back. I think the first 15 minutes, you have to put it on pause and that turn on the subtitles. So you go get it and then go laugh again when you speaking in English.

[Damaris]

The English subsid. Yeah, that'll go through.

[Cupid Valentino]

Talk to us about the. The comedy scene growing up in Mexico. Like, what? I. I never knew that. Mexico. I mean, obviously it's great Mexican comedians, but what is the comedy scene like in Mexico?

[Felipe Esparza]

I don't know, bro. What is the comedy scene in Africa? I don't know. I never been to Africa. I never been to Mexico.

[Cupid Valentino]

You never been to Mexico?

[Felipe Esparza]

I didn't start comedy in Mexico.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, you've been. But I'm just saying, I've never heard about the. The comedy scene started in Carson, California.

[Felipe Esparza]

Scene in Dublin, bro.

[Damaris]

It's not bad, actually.

[Cupid Valentino]

But you would know. You would know about the uprising in.

[Felipe Esparza]

1916, bro, against the British.

[Damaris]

Listen, we still need Northern Ireland opening up for.

[Felipe Esparza]

What was it like selling merch for Bernie Mac?

[Baby D]

You walked into that one.

[Damaris]

You didn't really any.

[Cupid Valentino]

My bad, Felipe. I'm sorry. I just. No, I'm not saying.

[Damaris]

Okay, I read the briefing from Netflix.

[Cupid Valentino]

No, I'm just.

[Damaris]

He used someone else's passport, got to Carson, California, and then ended up in East LA in the projects. And then Theodore Roosevelt showed up somewhere. That was as fast as I read that Netflix bio. And I was like, all right, man, he's vegan, you're vegan. We'll make this work somehow.

[Cupid Valentino]

But no, I'm in the right pocket Podcast.

[Felipe Esparza]

This podcast should be called I Already Read the Headlines. People in my neighborhood be like, hey, bro, did you hear about the tariffs? And that's all they say. Because that's all they know.

[Damaris]

No, we're pretty much like morning show DJs that have five minutes to read something and be like, is it. Is. Is comedy too controversial now? That's all we can do. That's all we got. Tell Us about George Lopez. What's he like?

[Felipe Esparza]

Oh, he. He's cool with me, man. He took me to a Dodger game, so he's cool.

[Cupid Valentino]

That's it.

[Felipe Esparza]

You give him a kidney, but, you.

[Damaris]

Know he already has two.

[Cupid Valentino]

I like Felipe. He walked in and he saw my weed roll up on the table. He was like, yeah, I'm in the right place. I like that.

[Felipe Esparza]

I saw that no smoking sign, and I got sad.

[Cupid Valentino]

No, you can smoke it. You can absolutely smoke it.

[Felipe Esparza]

But get back to stand up. I started standup comedy, bro. Before Internet, bro, Before social media. So you might as well. Cause I was in Mexico now, and there was no social media. So I had to really go to a library, bro, and look for a book. And that's for a librarian. And go, I'm trying to find a book on comedy. I want to learn how to write. So she took me, like, upstairs, and there was, like, mountains of books, bro. Like, old ones, bro. Like Shakespeare writing. And I finally found a good one. It was called Comedy Writing Step by Step by Jean Peray. And I just started reading it and started writing jokes.

[Cupid Valentino]

Okay.

[Felipe Esparza]

Went up on stage, bombed them. But I got two jokes in, so everybody liked me. And I went back, kept going back. I met Jamie Kennedy the first time I did stand up.

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh, wow.

[Damaris]

Okay.

[Felipe Esparza]

So I started hanging around with that crew for a while, and then I met another people and I started hanging around with them. So that's learning how to do stand up.

[Damaris]

This was Jamie Kennedy, pre. What was his punk show that Ashton Kutcher stole?

[Cupid Valentino]

I can't remember the name.

[Damaris]

You're Older Than Me Frank show. Yeah, the prank show.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, prank show.

[Damaris]

Did he involve you in that Melo?

[Felipe Esparza]

No.

[Damaris]

That's crazy. That's wild that Jamie would do this podcast.

[Cupid Valentino]

Okay.

[Felipe Esparza]

And he. He. He voted for me on Last Comic Stand. He told everybody to vote for me inside of trading. And we still have the same. The friends that he has when he first started, they're still around, you know, and he takes them to open sometimes, so that's nice of him. And those guys, you know, they've been around for a long time. Time.

[Cupid Valentino]

What are some of the things on a Raging fool that I can expect to be laughing at? I know you're going to cover a lot of the crazy that's going on now, but it's dark.

[Felipe Esparza]

Some of the jokes are very dark. In the beginning is good. Yeah, man. It's very dark. And like, I have a joke where I. I said I went to. I talk about. I went to an I went to a gender revealing party.

[Cupid Valentino]

A gender reveal party. Okay.

[Felipe Esparza]

Yeah. When I got to the woman's test. You got an abortion? Oh, yeah. Then a balloon blew up and sprayed blood everywhere.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

And then the fireworks started. The LA fire.

[Felipe Esparza]

I got hit with the uterus. So it's dark. You know, it's a dark humor. I mean, you cut this off, watch it live on my special and get the real effect. Because right now when you say without. No, you know, in a regular.

[Damaris]

I got the content.

[Felipe Esparza]

I don't tell my, my, my, my jokes on. On shows cuz they. People take it the wrong way. He really is like that. Like they don't know. They don't know I'm a comedian. But these are the jokes that I say.

[Damaris]

What, what gift did you bring to this gender reveal coat hanger?

[Felipe Esparza]

I brought, I brought a lot of. A lot of people who are from like from Tennessee who can't have one in their states. So a lot of. I got a lot of endangered women who are enslaved in their states without a choice.

[Damaris]

You can see him at the San Diego Zoo. They're about to go extinct. You can't even. So guys, what's it like being vegan?

[Felipe Esparza]

He's vegan too?

[Damaris]

Yeah, he's gay.

[Felipe Esparza]

Wow. Just like me, bro. People don't believe me. They say, what do you eat?

[Cupid Valentino]

Crops.

[Felipe Esparza]

You're depleting her forest fool. Will you deep fry lettuce? I get all that, bro. You're fat, bro. You don't. You don't like. You don't like Salma. If I ordered on teu.

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh my God.

[Damaris]

You can relate though, cuz all of our listeners think Ma is the only fat vegan that exists. Oh no, bro, you just got the joke.

[Felipe Esparza]

He's not even fat. Like I.

[Damaris]

That's a double hoodie. So he hiding a little bit of it.

[Cupid Valentino]

And when we ever in history.

[Felipe Esparza]

Yeah. When we hang out, he was big and we thought now what do you eat? Crops. We're just joking. Kevin Smith. You know, I think from the, the director of Clerks, I think he might be vegan. And not Russell Simmons, but his partner from Def Jam.

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh, Rick Rubin.

[Felipe Esparza]

He's. He's vegan.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Felipe Esparza]

But he got fat off eating Chinese food.

[Damaris]

Yeah, naturally. Would you guys do some, some type of conferences? Vegans? Is there a Group chat. Is there. Email thread.

[Cupid Valentino]

Okay, let's do it.

[Felipe Esparza]

Oh, not me, man, because I. I still hang around a lot with nothing but meat eaters, bro.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Felipe Esparza]

I'm the only vegan. Vegan in the group, so. And then. And, man, like, I. I could watch people eat meat. Doesn't bother me.

[Cupid Valentino]

Right.

[Damaris]

Torn with him.

[Felipe Esparza]

I love the smell, man.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah. What made you. What made you go vegan?

[Felipe Esparza]

All right, if you have kids watching this, tell them leave the room.

[Damaris]

Our demo is. Is 14 and under.

[Felipe Esparza]

Oh, man. I was on that keto diet.

[Cupid Valentino]

Okay.

[Damaris]

Okay.

[Felipe Esparza]

But before it was. Before that guy decided to call it the keto diet, it was an actual diet that was invented by a guy. Guy named the Dr. Atkins diet.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Felipe Esparza]

Dr. Atkins. So I went full hardcore, bro. Two weeks with all the comments. We were on the road.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Felipe Esparza]

So we would just try this. Two weeks. Yeah, we just ate. We ate hamburger meat, like, in and out with no lettuce. Just. Just pure meat and cheese, bro, for two weeks straight. Meat, cheese, Diet Cokes. No water, bro. No. No vegetables, no fruit. Food, chest meat and cheese, bro. Yeah, I was, like, constipated, bro, for at least two days. And I had to go to a Lamaze class. You know how to take a ride? Like. Like a woman giving birth.

[Damaris]

What was the breathing technique?

[Felipe Esparza]

They told you it was bad, bro. Like. Like I blew out my. Bro. Like, I felt like I got sodomized by a ghost. Like, it was painful, bro. Like. And like, it's not. It's something you could talk comfortably now, but not something you could just put your friend to the side and go therapy.

[Damaris]

I'm sure will help you get through your ass.

[Felipe Esparza]

Bird. After eating two slices of pizza. That's a commercial telling me this.

[Cupid Valentino]

Does your ass burned after eating pizza?

[Felipe Esparza]

But it took a while, man. I was just laying in bed, man, and I had to. My butt was in pain. And then my. I couldn't tell my wife because I was embarrassed, you know, you gotta be a man, so. Man. And then, like, she would be on top of me, and I'm, like, going, ah. But it felt like I was liking it, but I was embarrassing pain. I didn't. I didn't just have an orgasm. I'm bleeding out of my ass.

[Damaris]

You queefed.

[Felipe Esparza]

Yeah, it was painful, bro. So then I can. This, bro. No more meat, no more cheese.

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh, God, man.

[Felipe Esparza]

I lost a lot of weight when it worked, right? Yeah. And I had. I don't know if anybody ever, like, cleansed themselves.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Felipe Esparza]

But I had that cleansing poop yeah. Came off like.

[Cupid Valentino]

Like a boot.

[Felipe Esparza]

Like oil, bro. Like it was black. It was like liver, bro. And I. And I had to like take a picture of it and Google it. And it told me that it was normal.

[Cupid Valentino]

It didn't say it was cancer.

[Damaris]

The only time Google will tell you not dying.

[Felipe Esparza]

It felt. It looked like. Like. Like those things that you go swimming in the river and it gets stuck you. Like a leech. It felt like a leech.

[Damaris]

Like a leech to blow it out. Is that what happens with you after your. Your juice cleansing?

[Cupid Valentino]

This never happened.

[Felipe Esparza]

Oh, you do juice cleansing?

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, that's.

[Damaris]

Oh.

[Cupid Valentino]

He comes in hair cranky as my mom.

[Felipe Esparza]

When we were little, we didn't want to eat or something. I don't know why we'll do that. But they will put her in a room. My dad. My dad would put her in a room and he'll get like this tube like this. And there was like a. Like a bed pan on the floor.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Felipe Esparza]

And then he just showed up her ass and then shoot water or something. I don't know what. But everything will come out, bro.

[Cupid Valentino]

Like an enema.

[Felipe Esparza]

Like you struck oil. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yes.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Felipe Esparza]

I never talked about that too. Right now, I think torture. I don't know why they did that.

[Damaris]

We. We don't king shame here. So, you know, whatever they were into.

[Felipe Esparza]

But what was the point of that? You guys know anybody?

[Damaris]

No.

[Felipe Esparza]

[Cupid Valentino]

The right. This is the absolute right show for that.

[Felipe Esparza]

Enema. Enema.

[Damaris]

[Damaris]

Get him up Mall is actually into a lot of that.

[Cupid Valentino]

He.

[Damaris]

He calls it getting his diaper changed. He's really into like when a woman goes around that area. That's his thing.

[Felipe Esparza]

That's funny, bro. Cuz I. I thought about that, you know? Cuz like I got breath till I was later in life, you know, like real late. Embarrassing late. But like, my mom will breath. Yeah, she will breath me till four.

[Cupid Valentino]

Your mom breastfed you four, Right? Okay.

[Baby D]

Mexican.

[Felipe Esparza]

Yeah, man. And it was embarrassing, bro, because they lay my mom inside the playground in my school. So she had to put bull bar, bro, behind the gate.

[Cupid Valentino]

Like through the gate?

[Felipe Esparza]

Yeah, through the gate. I'd be like this. Like a kid that's outside of Mexico, San Diego.

[Damaris]

I thought reduced lunch.

[Felipe Esparza]

And then it's funny because I knew that I was. I was like you, bro. Like, because, you know, even though before I was still doing baby stuff, like playing with my hair and trying to touch my toes. Yeah, baby. When it's breastfeeding going like this. And I always thought it was sad, you know, like for. For. Because I'm not. I'm glad that I didn't take it to the next level and dress up like a baby and want to be baby and want to be showered.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, cuz that would have been weird. Yeah.

[Felipe Esparza]

Cuz you can't hard. You can't find a like it be. You can't find. You would pay a prostitute to do that. Man. You can't have a regular woman do that. She don't want to raise another baby. You know she left two her mom's house just to be with you.

[Damaris]

Yeah, well, she. She probably didn't have a mother. That's why she's in the line of work she's in.

[Felipe Esparza]

But that would be sad. Dude, I think that be the saddest thing. You're driving around dress like a baby, man.

[Cupid Valentino]

You.

[Felipe Esparza]

You probably go to a pro. Hey, how much much? $200.

[Damaris]

Way too much. Do they. Do they allow your mom around like 200ft within a school at this point or.

[Felipe Esparza]

Yeah, man.

[Cupid Valentino]

[Felipe Esparza]

My mom got a job in the school as a nurse.

[Cupid Valentino]

At your school?

[Felipe Esparza]

Yeah, she. She was like a stalker. She want to keep an eye on us.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

So she got a job to hire. Yeah. And people would. Man. And I. I would rose battles when my mom worked there.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Felipe Esparza]

[Felipe Esparza]

My mom would even take my mom was. Would bring my mom make it bad for her because she would take like the leftover lunch food to our house. So man, we're having a birthday party and then like the kids could tell that my mom put frosting over the coffee cake from school.

[Cupid Valentino]

[Felipe Esparza]

I Met him, Lucy K. Bro. He gave me a phone call. Call was his manager, Dave Becky. At the time, ex manager. Now. He was trying to get a hold of me, and he called a laugh factory, called a Comedy Store. Then Lucy K. Calls me up and we're like, talking in Spanish. He's from Mexico, man.

[Damaris]

Yeah. But I heard that's the key to making it in comedy.

[Felipe Esparza]

And he gets canceled, bro. Three minutes, three months later, and nothing happens, bro, hair still wet. Why is it that story never happened that way? But that's the way I tell the fans when they want to hear a story, and I'm trying to get to my hotel room, tell the story about Hollywood, and once I tell that story, that's it. They leave me alone.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Damaris]

I would just say, go to Louis CK route, pull your dick out. They probably leave.

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh, my God.

[Damaris]

[Felipe Esparza]

I hate when people say that people don't know, like, Hollywood. They say that you have to sleep your way to be famous.

[Cupid Valentino]

No, you don't.

[Felipe Esparza]

No, you don't. Because I slept my way to the bottom.

[Felipe Esparza]

I have a joke now where I say that, because in California, anybody get a handicap sticker now. Yeah, I remember when we were kids, if you had a handicap sticker, you needed one, bro. You wait for him to come out of the car. You know, like a Transformer. I saw a guy in a Tesla side which would come out of a. Of a parking, asking for handicapped people. I asked him, bro, what happened to you, man? Oh, bro, my dad didn't give me enough hugs growing up, and my. My uncle molested me, man.

[Cupid Valentino]

Yeah.

[Felipe Esparza]

And. And I'm allergic to dogs, so I can't get a sensitive dog.

[Felipe Esparza]

It, which you were wearing with 40 meg. Cuz when I remember, like, d dancing, bro, with no T shirt on in front of the ice cream, man. And then my mom was, like, more afraid of me being gay than being sexually assaulted by that man. She said, it is hoto. It is puto. Instead of, what are you doing with my son? Why is he in the ice cream truck? Why is he dancing with no T shirt on? But my mother didn't know, man. Ever since then, I want to perform form. And he said, whoever takes his T shirt first gets a nice cream. And I was like, the fattest kid, right? So.

[Felipe Esparza]

It was this, man. They used to be my dad's best friend. And, like, he's not. He's not alive anymore, and we already beat up half of his kids, so. But it's funny, man, how when that happens, you don't know. It's happening, bro. So it's happening. And if you're like, you just don't know, man. And. But anyways, I want to get too deep on this, but. Yeah, man.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh, now you don't want to tell the story? Now you done told us all of this shit, Felipe, and now you want to.

[Felipe Esparza]

But now I got serious, so.

[Damaris]

I mean, did he give you the. The firecracker popsicle?

[Felipe Esparza]

He never got that way.

[Damaris]

Ice cream sandwich.

[Felipe Esparza]

This guy put this, man. He put his Hand inside my stomach like this, you know, rubbing my, my little chubby little 12 year old stomach. And then, and then he took out cash and then he goes, he goes, you want those $10? And I said, I grabbed them, bro. And he was trying to put his hand inside between my legs, but I ran, bro. I ran with the 10 bucks. Yeah, but nothing ever happened. But, but you're still like, you still have that feeling, bro. Like the feeling, you know, like you're dirty. You know, you feel bad. Yeah, because that never happened to you, man. And you want to tell somebody, but you're also so, so, so like you don't know, man. Cuz you don't want to get that person in trouble. Now he's your dad, friend. You're gonna be like the, you know, you, you know, like you're going to embarrass the family. So I let it go, man. And, and then like, bro, 20, when I was 20 years old, we were at his house and we were all partying because my friends, they were natives and their mom was at home and this was a neighbor that was. Their parents were always home. They were always home. They were always home. But this time they weren't home. So, man, it was a big party. We were all getting tattoos. I got my little three dots and. And then my friend was passed out on the couch like this. From the peripheral of my eye, I saw that same man that was trying to grab me like this eight years ago. Yeah, he was in. He was rubbing my friend's pants like this and he go. Then I said, oh, I knew.

[Damaris]

I knew your ass.

[Felipe Esparza]

And then my friend said, hell yeah. Then my other friend understand, hell yeah. And one friend with all quiet. So anyway, that dude that didn't say nothing, he went over there, bro. He beat the out of him and we grab, they grabbed them and we, we tossed that out the window, bro. And went after all his sons.

[Damaris]

That's a beautiful ending. Yeah, no, I was. That was poetic. Am I the only one that found that?

[Cupid Valentino]

Oh, my God, Felipe.

[Felipe Esparza]

[Damaris]

Can I ask, can I ask what the tattoo was?

[Felipe Esparza]

No. I got the three dots and I got the baby mama that won the, the settlement deal in the back.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Felipe Esparza]

And my friend, he got a, he got a little beautiful chick right here. But it was funny, me, as soon as the guy did that two, a pimple busted out where the eyeball is. And that two tattoo guy was telling, bro, don't pop that pimple, man. Don't pop that pimple. And now he popped it. Now the girl look like. Yo, the tattoo looks like she was shot in the face.

[Damaris]
