Starting point is 00:06:13 Yeah, I told you. It's going to be either beef or rent soon. When it comes to the rising cost of groceries, a few items have increased more over the past year. one of them being beef. It's now more expensive than ever in the U.S. than ever in the history. Granted, things used to cost like a penny.
Starting point is 00:06:35 Yeah, inflation. Anyone ever see a little house on the prairie? No. Nobody? It was like daytime. It was on TPS. Yeah, all of that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:43 Two little girls, cool little dresses, but they would go to the store. And for like two pennies, they could stock up on candy. And I used to be like, why didn't that? Why can I have that? And that was in the 90s. Yeah. Oh, man. They weren't in the 90s.
Starting point is 00:06:56 90s when I watched it. Yeah. Anyway, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the price of stakes is up 16.6 compared to last year alone. What? How much to say? 16.6%? Yeah. So like 1.5th?
Starting point is 00:07:10 Yeah. So like whatever, if it cost $15 last year a pound, it'll probably cost, I don't know. 150 times 6. Oh, my. Oh, yeah. 1.50. Sorry. 8 to $30.
Starting point is 00:07:21 Yeah. So think twice when you go take those girls to mass girls, bro, because I know you'd be like, like. going to do that. I just want a fogo to chow for the time. Oh, that's meat on meat. That's what I'm saying. Meat on a stick. Don't wonder why it was like a hundred and something dollars just for one blade. Oh, bro. You need to go during lunchtime. And if you take a kid, they eat free. So you're technically just eating for like two or three people. Oh, because you take the kids. Yeah. At fogo? Huh? A fogo. Yeah. See, a little little right here. 40 bucks. 40 bucks be three people.
Starting point is 00:07:50 Hey, I'm, but they have to be five and under or something. Okay. This is a big five-year-old. I don't know why the cost of meat is rising is like, are there less cows? I don't think so. You know what I'm saying? No, it's all farming. No, it's all the transportation and all that. So they come from Canada. A lot of our meat and stuff like that, it comes from Canada and tariffs and all of that.
Starting point is 00:08:14 I thought it was USDA. We had the, we're eating Canadian cows? No, we might. A lot of, like, poultry and beef and all of that, it's imported. We would love for AIDS to be more American. farmers. Hence probably why it's like, hey, use American stuff and stuff like that. But rather if it's not. You're right. We do beef with Canadians. Our cows are saying,
Starting point is 00:08:33 Crotie. Crody. Don't eat me, fam. And then we eat them. Don't get those. Don't call me on that. But I saw like a graphic that said like when the tariffs were happening. Yeah. What the, what that means for us and a lot of like the herds and stuff? I don't know. Farming animals. Oh yeah. From Canada. I can't believe we eat Canadian cows. Me too.
Starting point is 00:08:58 I thought it was like happy cows. Charging more because of transportation because it costs more to transport things. That's what Marty said because he's in the trucking business. Oh, thanks Marty. I don't know when you said that. Hey, what are they called Canadian bacon? Canadian is ham.
Starting point is 00:09:11 We should all stop eating so much Canadian stuff. Why? Because it's making us soft. Well, turns it's beef. That's exactly what Trump said before he did the tariffs. Don't milk me fom. What are you doing, Fama? All right, let's keep it going. Let's keep it going.
Starting point is 00:09:29 Shout out to our iPad Bunny. You know his residency over there in Puerto Rico is killing it. So much so. Like, this guy is making bank. He's made $713 million for Puerto Rico. That's the economic impact on Puerto Rico, his residency. And that's, I guess, his main point. This is why I wanted to do it.
Starting point is 00:09:48 Yeah. I wanted to make sure that the economy here grew. You guys came to see. see me and all of that good stuff. But speaking of going to see him, even if you didn't travel to go see Bad Bunny, you can see him. How?
Starting point is 00:10:01 Because in Amazon Prime. Amazon Prime. Yeah, they're going to live stream his last concert. That's tight. That's cool. Watch party, watch party. Yeah, he added a show, and then
Starting point is 00:10:12 that show is going to be live streamed. I believe also on Twitch. There's three platforms he's putting the show on. Oh, he's partnering with? Yeah. Oh, man. So that, I felt so much FOMO watching everybody travel and like that
Starting point is 00:10:24 You guys can take days off like that? It's crazy. It's not too late. It's not too late. To take those trips? To go to Puerto Rico. No, it's too deep, really. I got a job. I'm not vague.
Starting point is 00:10:33 No, it's not too late. I believe in you. I have a job too. Yeah, you just like taking vacations. I thought it was Labor Day. Well, if both of you are going to be here, then I'll go. I will go on behalf of the team to Puerto Rico. No, I'll catch it on the stream.
Starting point is 00:10:49 I'll catch it on the stream. I'll catch it on the stream because they had to pay hell of hell of money for the for the meat now. All right. So we up, we up. That was money moves. It's Hispanic Heritage Month,

Starting point is 00:12:34 And he did that many movies with Salma. I could have swore they should have been a couple. Like in my brain, they were a thing. I was thinking that's his biggest accomplishment. What? And maybe not accomplishment. What? That being able to control himself around that many movies or on some.
Starting point is 00:12:48 Salma? Yeah. Yeah, they've done over 10, like 12, 13. Wow. And they have like a long lasting friendship. I Googled it like 15 times in different ways. Have they ever dated? Rumors.

He cried when he proposed. Yeah, so beautiful.
Starting point is 00:15:25 Until recently, I think life has taken a turn. What do you mean? So the Kansas City Chiefs are 0 and 2. They've been struggling on the field. Load up. But also, his ex, Kayla Nicole, was recently caught on stage with the legend. Chris Brown.
Starting point is 00:15:45 She went on, she went to a Chris Brown concert. So this is the fans going crazy, seeing her come out. Oh, okay. She walks. It's like her homegirl or something. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:57 Or is it one fan went crazy. So Chris Brown has a little moment on stage where he has this couch and he has a people, girls lay on it. And Kayla Nicole came out on stage, laid on the couch, and her and Chris Brown got freaky to this song.
Starting point is 00:16:23 Freaky. Oh. Oh, she did great. They both did great. Yeah, it was a performance. Yeah. I was there. And she went up there with confidence, walking around the couch.
Starting point is 00:16:34 Like, she's ready. I was like, Dale. I thought she was a dancer. I thought she was, like, one of the stage dancers. That's how confident she was. I was like, geez. Okay, so what does this have to do with Travis Gales? I know it hurt.

Starting point is 00:16:56 I've seen her dance on stage. She had her ankles by her ears. That was crazy. I'm sure Charles Calais already did that to her. Exactly. But now Chris Breezy is doing that, which is crazy. Yes. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:17:08 It's going to bring them, you know, memories or, you know, little flashbacks. Little flashbacks. He's going to just start like, ah. Let him try to ruin a happy home. Let that fool get married to Taylor Sond. He is. He doesn't have a choice now. No, what he should do is catch a ball.
Starting point is 00:17:22 How about that? He hasn't done that. I guess. Chiefs fans, how are you guys feeling? Well, he was also with her and they won a Super Bowl, no? With her? Taylor. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:22:34 Adrana needs our help. Adrana sent us a DM and said, Brownbag, Ayudan me, por favor. I'm literally falling apart right now after what I heard my Tia say. All right. Backstory.
Starting point is 00:22:48 We're a super close family. My Tia and my mom have always done everything together. They came here together from El Salvador after the Civil War and only had each other. I don't know life without my Tia and my prima,
Starting point is 00:23:00 who's more like my sister, to be honest. Well, what I overheard this weekend could change all that forever. I was at my Tia's house after work. She had the door unlocked, so I went in. She was in the room. I called for her, but she was yelling on the phone. She was fighting with someone back in El Salvador. Anyways, she starts going in on the phone, that she's tired of it, she's tired of keeping this all in, and is not going to keep my mom's secret anymore. She's tired of being the good sister, and I'm my 21st birthday, which is in two weeks, she's going to tell me that I'm not my mom's, that I'm hers. What?
Starting point is 00:23:40 Brown bag. My world shattered. I don't know who or what is happening. I don't know the details. I'm just confused. I'm crying as I'm writing this. What should I do? So she's finding out she's adopted.
Starting point is 00:23:56 No. Not adopted. Well, kind of like black market adopted. Sorry, I don't mean to make funny. this because someone else has gotten black market adopted on this. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Oh yeah, I remember that. Yes.
Starting point is 00:24:08 So maybe. The responsibility at the time? Yeah. Like, it's too much. Maybe the mom can't have kids. She's too nervous to call. Which I get. We have to ask your questions about this.
Starting point is 00:24:22 I mean, to me it's, I mean, my best guess would be like, the mom couldn't have kids, but the Tia could. You know what I'm saying? My best guess, I don't know. I don't know. We're all specular market child. My best guess is like maybe this one. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:24:38 Like the Tia, the Tia mom. Yeah. Oh my gosh. The Tia mom had her maybe was going through something. So the mom Tia took over. Maybe. And then the mom Tia was like, I'm just going to keep her. Or I don't know.
Starting point is 00:24:52 Kids are expensive. You take one. I take one. You know what? You can't do that with kids. But they're siblings. I used to have a neighbor who she thought that her. her grandma was her mom.
Starting point is 00:25:03 Yes, yes, yes, yes. And then her mom came. And then like, they didn't, I don't know if they ever told her, but when she was little, she legit thought grandma was mom. And like she just, but my mom used to, I used to hear over here, my mom talking to people like, oh, that's not the actual mom. That's her grandma. Telling everybody in the room, hey, no, it's not her mom.
Starting point is 00:25:25 Oh, gosh. Gossiping. Yeah. No, that's crazy. That's crazy. And I guess you would have to talk. to mom, no? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:33 Yeah. Which? Mom Tia, Tia, Mom? Oh, man. It's tough because it's like just like knowing your Tia and then just be like, oh, my Tia, she's so crazy. Like, you know, but my mom, this and my mom that. And then it's just like, wait, it's flipped. Right.
Starting point is 00:25:48 My Tia's my mom and my mom is my Tia. Why would she call it her Tia secret or her mom's secret and not her Tia's secret of the Tia's a mom? Is this where the term Mama Mia came from? Mamma Mia. What I do know, especially with. like the civil war. Like, for example, and not to make it about me,
Starting point is 00:26:06 but my mom is Salvadorian, and my Aweilita came first. My Aolita came first with my Tia, and then my mom came later, and I'm not too sure why, but it all gets jumbled like that. And I hear a lot of stories, like my homie Jonathan was telling me
Starting point is 00:26:23 about a story of like, I don't know, like the families kind of come in pieces. I don't know if that is part of this. For sure. But it's just a very, weird dynamic of coming from El Salvador first specifically over the Civil War that happened
Starting point is 00:26:36 and it was really bloody over there and it was them seeking asylum here in the States and so I know that it could get tricky there Yeah and sometimes people send off their kids with other relatives in hopes for them to have a better life and not have to live that in like
Starting point is 00:26:53 also for example a civil war Yeah she needs to find she needs to find out what the story is how they got here Yeah because it could be that she sent you over and then you just she just kept you yeah raised me oh the crazy part is though like getting half the story and then having a wonder about the rest like yeah come into us trying to figure it out i don't know what to do the part that she's in right now is like the purgatory because it's like okay if you get the full story okay now you can start to make sense of it it's just like oh yeah
Starting point is 00:27:23 by the way your tia's not your mom what else what else like and then they just change the subject whatever she's overhearing right like she she couldn't hear the context or whatever else Hold on, hold on, I'm doing some math. Because the Civil War didn't happen 21 years ago, it was like more than that. Yeah. So they were already here. Yeah, I think that was just like, they happened here.
Starting point is 00:27:41 Yeah, they're just like back in the, you know, we've been to civil war together. There's a lot of things going on. Like, that's what they're going to raise my baby? No, but I'm saying like that's giving context to like how much they've been through together. Yes, yes, yes, yes. Okay. So like the original mom's probably like talking smack then. The original mom.
Starting point is 00:27:57 And maybe she wanted her to, because they said they made the, the, the, the, the, the, the, effort to keep them close. She says her prima's like her sister. That means her Tio's her dad. That means her cousin is her sister. Her cousin is her sister. And also... She's more like my sister.
Starting point is 00:28:12 Well... What was for you? She actually is. And I wonder what is causing the Tia or A.k.a. mom to finally want that information out. She's probably been wanting, you know? Is she seeing like the
Starting point is 00:28:25 sister not dealing with her daughter like a certain way that she wants to deal with it? We have to ask you like what the dynamic. are. I need to know what the dynamics are with your Tia mom's mom's sister and mom-thia. The mom-tia must be like Pissing off Tia mom.
Starting point is 00:28:40 Mamma-mia. She's like, honestly, one more thing, and I'm telling her all her secrets. I'm telling daughter niece that she's I'm sorry, Jenna. I don't mean to laugh at you. I'm with you. It's just a lot. It's a lot. We all go through it. And I'm telling you right now, I guess the thing I would want to tell you is you're not alone. All of us have these family secrets that we hear and we're like, what?
Starting point is 00:29:02 Yeah. It's like the sky all of a sudden isn't the same color you thought it was. Yeah. You know, up is down and down is up. And those moments happen. You being about to be 21 year old, 21 years old, that's super. I know it's affecting it. Yeah, I know we've all like gone through it where we found out our cousin's not actually a cousin.
Starting point is 00:29:17 It's just like our family friend that we've known forever. Wait, I'm not related to you. It's like, no, not at all. Like this weekend when I found out Canello's not my cousin. That's my grandma straight up. I'm like, is he our cousin? No. Heart shatter.
Starting point is 00:29:30 Are you? Heart shattered. Okay. You know? All of Canelo's brothers and family members look exactly like. I know. And I thought maybe we could be like seven cousins or something, but my grandma shut that down. The good news for Adriana is she has a sister.
Starting point is 00:29:44 Yeah. Yeah. And two moms. Hey, Jenna, I'm not laughing at you. We need to help you. We need to help you, Adriana. All right. She overheard and found out that her Tia is her mom and her mom is her Tia.
Starting point is 00:29:57 And now her world is shattered. and she doesn't know what the hell to do. Yeah, and the story seems like we're catching it right, right when the earthquake hit. She's spiraling. She's shook right now. She said that she walked into her Tia's place after, and she heard her Tia kind of yelling.
Starting point is 00:30:18 She's like, hey, Tia, I'm here. Heard her Tia yelling on the phone. And when she kind of went in to listen, her Tia was saying something about like she's tired of it. She's tired of holding this secret. Like when Adriana turns 21, which is in a couple weeks, she's going to tell her. I'm like, your mom's not your mom. I'm your mom.
Starting point is 00:30:35 She says that. And then like, her, everything is just going crazy for her right now. She stepped out of there and she does not know what to do. We've been asking her questions because you're trying to figure out what this all means for her. Like with the details, it's vague because it's vague for her. And she responded to us too. Yeah. So she said, I feel really scared answering questions.
Starting point is 00:30:56 But yes, my Tia is more the stay at home for us. since my Tia works, both me and my Prima are in college, but still go over my Tias for lunch and anything we need to in classes. She said, I don't want to downplay my mom, though. She is a single mom and is always working a lot. And the only thing I can think of that was weird growing up is I used to be called by a name that isn't my name when I was little. What?
Starting point is 00:31:20 And when I started school, it switched again. Also, my Tia gets mad a lot, so hearing her yell isn't new. I thought when I walked in and heard her talking about my birthday. it's that she's frustrated to be helping to organize everything and my mom being gone for work. But then she dropped that she's my actual mom. I don't know what's happening. I don't think I want to know. So, Salvi's just talk loud in general.
Starting point is 00:31:46 True. You know. You know that. I don't want to give into the stereotype, but like it's too conformational in my life to be true. Like, I don't want to be like, hey, you're enforcing a stereotype. type of man, we're loud and we get angry. Yeah. But I feel like everyone gets loud and angry.
Starting point is 00:32:02 I feel like I don't know what makes sense this part. Yeah, no, I think it's like a Hispanic thing. Special kind of cursive. Y'all yell and speak incursive. Really loud. There's also a little more fear. All caps. All caps and cursive.
Starting point is 00:32:14 Yeah. A little more fear with our anger. Yeah. Scary. I'm half of both. And when I turn up, what is like, that's yourself. I'm like, what do you mean? Why can it be my, Pueblo no, Juano Juano Hato side too?
Starting point is 00:32:27 Like, why can it be? That's more personal. Like she would never do this to us. In my, that side of me? Oh, gosh. Oh, gosh. All right. Let's go to the phone lines, though, to try to figure all of this out.
Starting point is 00:32:40 We did put feelers out there and say, you know what? She really needs to help right now. If you've gone through it too, I know it's a lot to speak on, but I think that's who can give her the best advice. True. We got Freddie on the line. Freddie from East L.A. What's up, Freddie? Freddie.
Starting point is 00:32:57 Freddie. Hello. What's up, Fred? Hey, how's the guy? How's the going, brown bag? It's going. What up, Freddie? Freddie, our guy, our girl, Adriana, hit us up, and she's tripping out, having maybe found out a family secret and involves her that her mom's not really her mom.
Starting point is 00:33:14 Her Tia's her mom. Her mom's her Tia. And she's just tripping out. She's 20 years old. She doesn't know how to handle this. Freddie, what would you tell her? I mean, I really experienced it. I went through the same situation.
Starting point is 00:33:28 What? Yeah. It's a total different. So mine was, I found out when I was 18, I was moving out of my house and I had my mom, hey, I need to talk to you. We need to talk to you. So that's when they told me, hey, I'm letting you know that I'm not your mom. What?
Starting point is 00:33:46 Your mom, yeah. So I was like, wait, what? She's like, no, I'm not your real mom. I'm your grandma. Who's your real mom is my sister, who I thought, who was my oldest sister. Please my house. Oh my God. Why do people...
Starting point is 00:34:00 Why would they say that way? Why do they wait? How did that make you feel? How were you in that moment? I was upset because they waited until I moved out of the house. That's what I'm saying. Take this with you as you go. Well, I guess you know what?
Starting point is 00:34:15 Maybe they're thinking about it this whole time. They're thinking about it all your life. But maybe they're like, oh, they're too young to find out. It is. This might mess you up if I told you when you were eight or ten. Let me wait until you're an adult. Let me mess you up as an adult. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:30 You're going to understand it more. But then you just think I had my old childhood thinking I was somebody else's. Yeah. Do you remember? In those moments, are you thinking about like, dang, I used to fight with my sister. I was really fighting with my mom. Like, how was. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:42 Yes. Yeah, because as a younger brother with your sister, you have this relationship when you eventually, you curse each other and you got each other names and you fight. So then I'm like, oh, my gosh, it was my mom the whole time. And I was feeling the bad. You were treating her back? Wow, buddy. I wonder how she kept up with it.
Starting point is 00:35:02 Like, she probably like flicked you too on your ear, like treated you like a little brother too. Like, he's your kid. You're my kid. Yeah, yeah. And then later on, I mean, the best advice I could give her is for her to ask questions because I asked later on, you know, with my real mom, I got a relationship with them.
Starting point is 00:35:19 I asked her, what happened? What happened with this? Yeah. She was like, I was 16. I was 16 when I had you, I couldn't do it. So I gave it to my mom. So, you know, she's my grandma. And that's how basically everything went.
Starting point is 00:35:31 I was like, wow. So now do you call her mom or do you still call your grandma mom? That's funny because I still can't call it like mom. I still call it by her name. Oh, my God. No, I get it. Because it's a weird thing. Yeah, that's your sister.
Starting point is 00:35:46 In your mind, mom, you say the word mom and then your mom pops up. Yeah. That's 18 years of. Yeah, it's programmed. And I even want to. And even when I talk to her, I call my grandma mom. I go, oh, hey, I was at my mom's house. And I'm basically talking about my grandma.
Starting point is 00:36:04 Yeah. Oh, my gosh, Freddie. So for like Mother's Day, do you get your mom flowers or just your grandma, mom? I mean, now I get my mom, you know, flowers. My grandma, she passed away. She passed away on 2020. So I have my mom now, you know. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:22 I get her flowers. Oh, great. My heart. Has your mom, has she had other kids? Like, do you have siblings? Yes. That maybe you thought you were your cousins? It's funny because I thought I was the smallest one and my, you know, other family that was my family.
Starting point is 00:36:43 It was, I have four brothers, no, three brothers and two sisters. So then I was the smallest one. But then later on when I found out about the situation, I'm the oldest one. and I have three younger, two sisters and two brothers. I get it. No, I get it. Because if his grandma was his mom, he's looking at his, like, so in that, those siblings. He's meaning his aunts and his uncles.
Starting point is 00:37:05 He thought I'm just the youngest one, but then come to find out I'm actually the oldest one. And you have three others? Yeah, I have two sisters and two brothers. That you thought were your cousins? Yes, they thought they were my cousins or nephews. And there you're Oh yeah Because that's a sister
Starting point is 00:37:23 Yeah Oh Oh my God Freddy I never had Secrets like this I never had I never had cousins
Starting point is 00:37:32 And I would always Like man I wonder You know When would I be able To have cousins And turned out later on
Starting point is 00:37:38 All my nephews Are my cousins What? No You're yet Oh my god My head hurts Hold on
Starting point is 00:37:46 She's living like Two lives Shut out you Thank you for Chinese And thank you for helping her like ask the questions you for sure got to ask the question uh let's go to saraii and hotthorn what's so saraii sarai our girl adriana needs our help she recently overheard her tia kind of like just being
Starting point is 00:38:07 loud on the phone and she goes over to check and she kind of is like figure like what is she saying over there uh and her tia was telling someone back in el salvador that she's ready to tell the truth that she, that Adriana, the one that's eavesdropping is actually her kid. And now Adriana's like, what's going on? Because this is my Tia. This is not my mom. And my mom's working right now. And I don't know what or who or how.
Starting point is 00:38:31 And she's kind of lost in this moment of what should I do. What would you tell her, Saraii? To be honest, I'm going to be, it happened to me as well. I was, I found out a week before I turned 15. you know, they asked me who are your parents, and I'm sitting in front of my parents like, they're my parents, you know, well, no, we have something to tell you. You're adopted. So on my, I guess my advice would be get the, thankfully she's within family.
Starting point is 00:39:06 That's one. That's already a plus. She's within family. She's not with outsiders. my advice would be get both sides of the story because and at the same time because one you're going to hear one story then another story it's going to yeah the person telling it yeah to this day like i still haven't been able to i don't have the courage to ask questions i ask here and there yeah but i still don't have the courage to ask and to be honest parent is the one that raises you that's your parent that's it
Starting point is 00:39:40 And, you know, yeah, now you know, and it's going to be so hard for her, but that would be my advice. Sit with both of them and get both of the same story. You know, one is going to say whatever benefits the other. So, yeah, that's my only advice. I'm really nervous. It's okay. Don't worry. Don't worry, it's a lot.
Starting point is 00:40:01 It's really hard, yeah. Especially finding out at 15, I'm wondering, like, I have a couple questions to ask you. Number one, it's crazy that they pop quized you before they told you the truth. Like, y'all know you're not my parents. Why are you asking me who's my parents are? Yep, yep. They pop quiz. And they were my pastor, too.
Starting point is 00:40:16 Yeah, it was my pastor. Oh, they confessed in front of the pastor? Oh, my God. Oh, they got that phone ball too. Yeah, because for your Gita, you have to go to the church. Oh, yeah. That's a novel. And then to make him worse, he announced it on the day of my 15.
Starting point is 00:40:34 Oh, my God. On the day. Like, oh, she just went through something. it was the worst thing ever because then everybody's just so bad why are we like that as people trauma
Starting point is 00:40:47 so you have that like recorded in video because like they record your kinsueena yeah I'm pretty sure wow that's about a ball of surprise that's awesome
Starting point is 00:41:02 oh okay you heard it you know I've passed that you know I learned to forgive because obviously I like I said I don't know who the person is I don't know who my real mom is I don't know who my real dad is but you know it's like just knowing that they're there they're somewhere in Mexico I know for sure but I never have the curse to actually ask you know Sarai you learned at 15 that your parents weren't your parents right now we have
Starting point is 00:41:32 Adriana learning about to be 21 that her mom may not be her mom and might actually be her Do you think they should have waited to tell you till later on? I probably wish I would have never found out. It would have been better. I was going to say that sometimes it's better not to even know. Yeah. But once you would have been better, I feel like it would have been better. No, but the problem is with that is like if you ever, if you ever do like one of those tests, like a 23 and me or like your ancestry.
Starting point is 00:42:01 Finding out that way can also be a difficult thing. Salih, have you thought about doing that? I have and you know what's funny I currently I'm currently going through like a treatment for my kidneys because I have a kid condition and that's the only sexy part about it because now I know it's the genetic disease and now it's like I have kids so now I have to like I literally as soon as I found that I went to go test them because that means I can just pass it down to them so I sat about it but I don't think I don't think nothing will come up oh you want to find out of medical I don't want to take it I don't want to take it I don't want to take it I don't want to want to think. Well, just know that it does happen. Like, people, there's stories of people doing the ancestry and maybe they find a sibling or a cousin that's related, you know, not necessarily finding, like, the parents, right? But you can find, like, uh, like family. But yeah, that's up to you. That's for sure up to you.
Starting point is 00:42:52 Thank you so much for calling inside. Thank you. My love to you. I know that you were nervous and that's a, that's a big, uh, big insight into your family to tell us. I appreciate it. Yeah. I just tell her, you know, she has to learn to forget to it because she's going to be so angry. Yeah. He's going to be really angry.
Starting point is 00:43:08 Finding out whatever the story is, you know. Whatever the story is. I, uh, no, it's, it's real life. That past year, too. That was the past. But why surprise? Herb? Who we thought were herb?
Starting point is 00:43:20 That's crazy. The real parents were, our, our little homegrown adriana, turned 21 years old in a couple weeks, recently walked in on her Tia or who she thought was her Tia, kind of yelling on the phone, uh, and explaining to somebody back in El Salvador. that she's just sick of it. She's tired of it.
Starting point is 00:43:38 She's ready to tell, Adriana, that her mom, who's the, like, the sister of the Tia that was in the room, her mom is not really her mom. The Tia is her mom. And then she just kind of backed away slowly, like Homer Simpson in the bush. And has been spiraling ever since,
Starting point is 00:43:53 and she needs our help figuring it out. She did mention that when she was little, used to call her another name. That's not her name until she went to school. That happens a lot. Your name changes a lot. Yeah. Not the middle name.
Starting point is 00:44:03 Just another name. Okay, so I'll tell you, like, with my cousin. He just had a baby, right? Wait. No, listen. No. He just had a boy, right?
Starting point is 00:44:13 For the longest time, we called him Bruno. I thought his name was Bruno. Come to find out the little boy's name is Dominic. The little boy's boy? How do you know his name? And now that I know, I still call him Little Bruno and like, Brito. Why is that his name? It's weird.
Starting point is 00:44:30 It's weird. So it happens. It's just like maybe they just overheard things. It's like, oh, that's what his name is. no one really asked and then that was the name. Yeah, no, when her mom, when his mom was telling him like, oh, yeah, Bruno, I'm like, who's Bruno? And she's like, oh, no, she's like, who's Dominic? I'm like, who's Dominic?
Starting point is 00:44:46 And she's like, that's his real name. Well, why did they call him Bruno? Oh, because this big sister wanted to name him Bruno. And it just stuck. So it just was like his nickname. I don't know. So we think. Or maybe that's not really.
Starting point is 00:45:01 We're not even supposed to talk about Bruno. That's crazy. That part. It is. All right, let's go to Cassandra in Anaheim. Cassandra, we are trying to help out our baby girl, Adriana, who just got, like, the reveal of a lifetime in her own family, finding out that her Tia may be her mom,
Starting point is 00:45:17 and her mom may actually be her Tia. Doesn't know the details just overheard her Tia kind of saying, and her 21st birthday, I'm going to just tell her, like, I'm sick of this, I'm sick of holding this secret. She's got to know. And we're trying to help her figure out how to maneuver that, because that's a shock, you know? Let's go to Cassandra.
Starting point is 00:45:34 Cassandra in Anaheim. What's up Cassandra? Cassandra. Good morning, Brownback. How are you guys? Good. How are you? Good, good. So first, like, initially, I just had some time to think over this. Like, her aunt knew she was in the house and she was talking that loud. That's kind of like you're talking that loud about something that you don't want to take accountability for and kind of push it off for her to overhear you. Something like that, I feel like her talking that loud with her in the house
Starting point is 00:46:04 that was like a way for her to kind of let her find out she's just selfie that's it that's how love they taught no that's how they talk uncontrollable when everybody's like why is letty so loud this is my selfie side is he yeah yeah it
Starting point is 00:46:19 I just want to be clearer no I think that's every mom they talk loud on the phone and they talk like if they have to yell because they're talking to someone in El Salvador like if it's if I scream louder The Humee better over there. I'm sure they have great service and reception over there.
Starting point is 00:46:36 They do. So it's not needed. And also, who yells secrets? Why is she yelling secrets? Like, it's like, well, have you ever, like, set a secret? And then be like, you look around and be like, no. I thought she was in her own home.
Starting point is 00:46:47 I don't think she knew the kid was there. Yeah. Because she said that she came and she was already yelling and probably her saying, like, hi, Tia, was, didn't go over the yell. The grampuche, cabo. Yeah, what they're on those phone calls, they're completely check. They're just locked down. You'll tell a mama secret and they'll tell the whole Tia crew.
Starting point is 00:47:07 I'm like, what the up? I told that to you, not everybody else. She's on the phone on speaker. So everybody in the house can hear it as well. Okay, okay. But that is the Cassandra does make a great point. Cassandra does make a great point. Adriana, Adjana East L.A.
Starting point is 00:47:21 What's up, Adriana? Wait, Adriana? Not, not the... Adriana. I'm here. Hi. Adriana, we're trying to help another Adriana. Hello?
Starting point is 00:47:29 Hello? Hello? Adriana? Yes. Yes. You are Adrianna? We're trying to help out the other Adrianna who's finding out that maybe her Tia is actually her mom and her mom's actually her Tia and she does not know what to do. What would you tell her?
Starting point is 00:47:46 I would tell her that just deal with the punches. She's at least she's with her family still and not like realizing that she's adopted and with like a bunch of strangers. which wouldn't be ideal. In 2018, I was, had to move out of, at the point I was living with my mom and her husband. Yeah. And my little brothers. And my mom apparently had a change of heart, and she, like, didn't show up one night. And it turns out she was, she had a best friend from kindergarten.
Starting point is 00:48:30 And she was hanging out with her. her best friend from kindergarten and her best friend had a brother that they were messing around with when they were teenagers. So in 2018, when my mom stopped showing, she decided to tell me that my dad wasn't my dad and that this guy that I remember him at when I was growing up as a kid because there was one point when we were living with my mom's best friend and their family. And I remember this guy as a kid and she's telling me as I'm 33 years old like, oh, by the way, Miha, your dad is not your dad. And this guy that I decided to leave my whole family for is actually your dad.
Starting point is 00:49:23 And I'm like, three, why are you telling me that my dad? Oh, my God. Hold on. So what you're saying is she rekindled. So your stepdad is your real dad? No. The friend's dad. The friend's brother.
Starting point is 00:49:38 Her homegirls brother. My mom's home girl's brother is my dad. But it's crazy because my mom's best friend, the brother is actually related to her husband, their cousin. What? Sweet home Alabama? No, they all do each other. They just all do each other.
Starting point is 00:50:02 Yeah. I get it now. So your dad, the person you think is your dad is like your Thiel. No, the person that is my dad No, I think he's my dad Because first of all, this guy that she's with I'm taller than him So how are you gonna tell me
Starting point is 00:50:18 You're my dad So you're, hold on, hold on y'all Let's try to piece this together Adriana and Islai Your mom is with someone right now She's together with that And that person And technically she's still married to the guy
Starting point is 00:50:34 She's definitely still married I don't care about the other stuff Right now your mom is is with someone and that's who she's saying is your actual dad. That's who she's saying is my dad. So the new boyfriend or the stepdad and the guy, maybe you didn't really like him so much because you knew
Starting point is 00:50:48 of life with before him, right? Yes. But she's saying like, hey, guess what? I'm with your dad now and you're like, what? I thought this was my dad. No, she just, I don't know. I was just like, how are you going to tell me like you helped all this whole
Starting point is 00:51:02 time and you thought this person was my dad or like now because you guys are together and you guys are happy? Like you want to make like this picture perfect. Right. And now, like, oh, Ejan is your daughter. I'm like, what? Do you guys look alike a little bit?
Starting point is 00:51:15 I know you said you're taller than him, but do you have a little carita, little nose here? No, like I have little like chinita almond eyes. Like he has big old bug eyes. Like I look like you. I'm really different. I love you. I love you.
Starting point is 00:51:30 All right. So how are you feeling? You're feeling upset about it, huh? Oh. Yeah, at first I was upset because I was like, what do you mean? How do you mean? And like even me and my nana, we have the same mole on the back of our neck. Is your nana your sister or something?
Starting point is 00:51:50 The new nana from him? My nana from my dad. Oh, the one you think is your dad. My real dad. Okay. Which is a sister. The one you think is your real dad. There is no way that that's a coincidence.
Starting point is 00:52:05 Yeah. The birth mark is they don't lie. It's in the same place. It's in the same place as my nana. And, like, let me tell you something. Let me tell you something. I'll just in New York. Not we're talking about it.
Starting point is 00:52:17 Are we helping Adriana? And I was like, how we have the same name too. But she's simply with mama issues. I'm getting with daddy. Okay. All right. It's going to be all good because you're you no matter what. And like anybody, everybody else mentioned, the person that raised you is your father.
Starting point is 00:52:38 knowing your nana. And I told my dad, I told my dad when this happened. And my dad was like, you know what, Miha? It doesn't matter. I'm still your dad. And I was like, you know what? That's all I needed to hear. That's right.
Starting point is 00:52:49 I love to you, A. Janet. Thank you for calling in. Her name. She's going through a lot right now. She's going to stay. Oh, I almost had to change the heart right now, too. Don't do that. Don't do that.
Starting point is 00:53:01 That's people's real lives. On this, I'm coming mom after this. Why? Just ask her. Any questions? Yeah. If anything. We all got to ask.
Starting point is 00:53:09 We all got to ask. I'm going to investigate. Yeah, and then it's like, dang, I recently found out at 35. I wish it by now. Oh, okay, look, let's go. You know what? We got a couple of people that are down to tell us, like, the parents' perspective. Oh, which I think is really important.
Starting point is 00:53:25 It is. Right now we have our home grow agenda that had hit us up and told us, you know what? I'm about to turn 20. I walked into my Tia's house. And you know, we're saying like your mom is the one that raised you, but it does seem like her Tia was really involved in the raising of her. She's like she's the one that would cook and clean She's the housewife you know my Tio works
Starting point is 00:53:42 My mom has always been a single mom so she had to really work hard So I like that's who like it's kind of like she did raise her Yeah she was the one that was there in present you know what I'm saying So she walks in and she hears her Tia yelling at some in the phone Someone back in El Salvador and is saying like yeah I'm gonna tell her that My sister's not really her mom I'm her mom yeah And her world is crumbling down We do have
Starting point is 00:54:08 someone that can give us the parents perspective this is sara in anaheim sarah good morning sarah sarah good morning hi sarah sarah sarah hi sarah sarah talk to us what's going down okay so my story is kind of similar to what's going on but i mean i'm the parent i'm the mom okay and i got to say about how it went with my daughter okay so when i met my husband i met him when my daughter was She was about a turn one years old. So her dad was never in the, her original dad was never in the picture. And I met my husband. We married and everything.
Starting point is 00:54:48 My daughter grew up thinking that my husband was her dad. And she was daddy's girl forever. And then we had another baby. And then, you know, our family was growing and it was hard. Like me and my husband were always, when is the right time to tell her? Right. When are we going to tell her? her. It was so hard for us and we always wanted to tell her the truth, but it was something that we were like, how do we break it down to her? A lot of people would tell me, you know what, tell her now. And it's like, how am I going to break her heart? You know, she's so little. She won't understand. Like, it is just very hard as a, as a parent. You don't have, there's no right time to tell them, like, or how to even tell them. It's not only going to affect her, but it's also going to affect her things like they're going to start asking questions like, mom, like,
Starting point is 00:55:36 What do you mean that's not my dad? So there was no right time until my daughter started asking questions now that she's older. She did have a change of last name when she was a baby and everything. My husband, you know, gave her last name and everything. In her eyes, it's everything. That's dad. So from the start, your husband was fine with her being like, oh, this is my dad, this is my dad, this is my dad. Like just from.
Starting point is 00:55:59 She was little. She was a special mind taking on kids. Yeah. Yeah. So she, my husband is all she knows. Wow. He thought that was her dad. So like I said, there's no right time or not even a way of how to tell them.
Starting point is 00:56:12 Like, it's just something so hard. So have you not told her? But she just found out. And the reason why, because in her school, they have Chromebooks. And when she was little, she was still partly in kindergarten, she still had her last name, the first last name. Not her, not my husband. Oh, wow. And her Chromebook kept popping up.
Starting point is 00:56:39 And I had already told school, hey, you guys need to change this because she had a change of last name. So even now up to high school, that last name kept popping up. So she told me, Mom, why does that last name, you know, and I can't, and not what I always tell her, you know what, the school probably made a mistake. You know what? They're probably confusing you. You know how to tell her? Yeah, Greg. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:02 So then I told her, you know what? I told my husband, you know what? I think she's old enough. It's coming soon. I feel it that we're going to have to talk to her soon. So my husband was at work. My daughter, we were at the table. We were eating.
Starting point is 00:57:15 And I was going through some emotional stuff. And she was like, Mom, why does that name keep popping up? And I told her, do you really want to know the truth? Do you think you're ready? Oh, I know. Oh, no. Yeah. And I told that, you know what?
Starting point is 00:57:32 Uh-huh. Through her whole time. growing up, I kind of made up a story like telling her explaining about a girl that had a baby and that she had to work hard, you know, to be able to provide for her because she wasn't a single mom, but she met a guy and he was a good guy and took over the baby like his very own. And then I would always tell her, how would you feel if you would have been that baby or she would always tell me, mom, you know, I would be grateful because he took me in and he took care of me like his very own. So no matter what that would be my dad. So me, when I told him,
Starting point is 00:58:05 do you remember the story I would always tell you? She was like, yeah, well, that baby was you. And she was like, what? And I'm like, yes, you know, the whole time I was trying to prepare you for me to tell you something. But I just didn't know how there was never the right time. Yeah. And then she was like, she just looked at me. She's like, mom, I understand.
Starting point is 00:58:22 She was like, no matter what, that's going to be my dad. And that's all I know. And he's always been there for me. So she took it like a big girl. And I was, I was, it felt such a release to me to, you know, to let her know the truth, but she took it like a big girl, and you know, I'm so proud of her, you know, and I told her, I'm sorry if I ever had to keep this from you, but I had to, like, there was no way for me to tell you, like, or when the, it's the right time to tell you this.
Starting point is 00:58:51 Right. You had years. Oh, no, she was a kid. No, like when they started to, she started to see the last name. So I feel like that would have been an opportunity to be, like, depending on the age. The age. She started to see the last name in kindergarten. No, she was like, she was in kindergarten.
Starting point is 00:59:05 End up to high school. How did she know? How old was she when she found out? She was about a turn 15. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Her last name changed.
Starting point is 00:59:16 Everything was when she was like about in kindergarten. So she was about four years old when we did the change, the last thing changed and everything. But she took it like a big girl. And I did tell her, do you, is this something that you want to tell like your sister or anything? Or this is something that you want to keep between us? You know, she said, no, mom, you know, nobody has to know, nothing has to change. I said, exactly. Everything remains the same, you know, like, nothing's going to change.
Starting point is 00:59:42 And she's like, I know, mom, I, you know, I feel it. Nothing's going to change. And I've asked her previously, you know, is there something, any questions that you have for me, anything you could always ask me? And she said, no, I don't even want to talk about it. She's like, I don't even think about it. I'm like, okay. That's good.
Starting point is 00:59:59 That's good. She would ultimately have to start at, thank you so much, Sarah. She would ultimately have to start asking questions. her father, the one that left, you know? But yeah, it's, it's tough story to tell. Thank you so much for calling in, especially, like, I guess as the parent, trying to figure out when's the right time. When's the right time to tell the kid about the situation.
Starting point is 01:00:18 Do you think the sooner the better then? She was at 15. No, no. It seemed like it worked out. I don't know. It's a tough. It's a tough call. Asking questions is when you should say it.
Starting point is 01:00:27 When you should say it? Yeah, because if you prolong it, they'd be like, why'd you prolong it so long? Like, I feel like you're being just lied to at that one. Yeah, the moment they ask questions. You answer it. Yeah, but this is like a big. No, the perfect time is always a milestone. All right, a quinceaniera, 18th birthday.
Starting point is 01:00:44 That's always the perfect time. Make it memorable, right? Right? Yeah, never forget this birthday. We got a couple other parents that want to chime in, I guess, on their side of things. We have, his name is West West, West, in Mission Viejo, West. We're talking about our friend Adriana that hit us up. She's about to turn 21 years old, went over her Tia.
Starting point is 01:01:05 house, heard her Tia yelling kind of over the phone. Like her Tia didn't know she was there. She walked up, her Tia yelling, and her Tia was like, I just, I'm tired of it. I'm sick. I'm frustrated. And I'm just going to tell her when she turns 21. Her mom's not her mom. I'm her mom.
Starting point is 01:01:17 And so she's kind of dealing with this little nugget of chisement that has to do with her. And she's like, I don't know what to do, how to even think about it. Should I ask questions? Will I want to know them once they, once I ask? So, West, what would you tell her? Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Hi, Wes. Hey, so from a parent's perspective, right, so we're kind of going through that right now.
Starting point is 01:01:45 Me and my wife, we have two beautiful kids, but unfortunately, her sister can't have any kids. It's just something in the genetics. And so she was actually thinking about doing surrogacy. But why is she going to go do surrogacy with someone who's a stranger where, you know, you can keep it in the family, And it's a lot safer. We know, you know, we know each other. Obviously, we're all family. So our thing is, like, she can't have a kid, so we want to be able to help her and bless her to be a mom. You know, she is very involved with our two kids.
Starting point is 01:02:24 She takes care of them. And, you know, we catch her crying sometimes. It's like being super sad that she can't be a mom. She can't fulfill that, you know. It might be selfish, you know, if you really think about it, where we're having a kid, just to give it, you know, to her. But at the same time, it's like the kid's going to be loved from both sides, right? From her.
Starting point is 01:02:45 Wait, wait, wait, wait. Chill out. Chill out. Let me say it. Let me say it. Wes and his girl are going to have a baby for the girl's sister. It's their baby. And they went the full nine yards and everything too.
Starting point is 01:02:56 No. Him and his wife. The sister can have kids. So him and his wife are going to have their kid and give it to the sister. Right? Not your fantasy, Greg. This is a got crazy brain. Wes, did we get it right?
Starting point is 01:03:12 Yes. Okay. You're lucky. Greg that you were going to go. He's a Pee-Hoo in the sister. She can't have kids, so that wouldn't have even worked. Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:23 Do you think that maybe that'll be tough on you guys? Because that's going to essentially be your child. I don't really think it will. Just because, like, we're all very involved in each other's lives, right? we already have two kids and I feel like her being over all the time like her just having that extra I don't think so
Starting point is 01:03:45 obviously you know you can't really predict the future so there might be some emotional and mental strain. What did you trade the kid for? Like hot chitos or something? Did you get the $100K? It's a blessing. Well, is she paying for you to give her the kid? Go for about $100K. No, no.
Starting point is 01:04:01 No. It's out of love. For the free skisks? Honestly, honestly, it's out of love And like I said, like sometimes we catch her crying, you know, and it's, it's very hard to see her because she can't fulfill that, you know, in her. She can never be a mom, you know, and she really wants to. And it really sucks when, like, you know, people give away kids or, you know, and it might be for different reasons, right? Like physical or financial or whatever it is, right?
Starting point is 01:04:29 But when someone really wants to be a parent and they can, you know, that really sucks. because no matter what they do, they might not ever be able to fulfill that, right? So we can help her fulfill that for her. I feel like that's good, you know. And it's not like it's going to a stranger or anything. Yeah, yeah. I got a question for you really quick. What's your ethnicity?
Starting point is 01:04:52 You're Hispanic, you Mexican, where are you? Puerto Rican, Colombian. Yeah, Mexican. Are you Mexican? Mexican West? Your name is West? Yep. That's cool.
Starting point is 01:05:01 I ain't got to lie. West. West, Oeste. West, Europe. Sister-in-law never thought about just adopting? She was thinking about surrogacy. Like I said, she was thinking about that. And then we were like, why are you going to have someone else have your kid when we can have your kid for you?
Starting point is 01:05:19 West, how old are your current kids? My oldest is eight and my youngest is six. Just like a, I mean, I'm not judging you. You're doing an amazing deed. Yeah, very incredible story. you ever like imagine you know uh seeing your baby when it was first born and handing it over to somebody else knowing that like you're not going to be able to be i guess you're going to be present but you're not going to be that certain like like when you're doing it for that certain reason i think
Starting point is 01:05:51 you already in your mind you're prepping yourself for nine months for that you know what do you think with yeah yeah no that's that's exactly right like you're kind of prepping yourself already for that you know it's not like yeah you know this whole time you know nine months we're excited about having a kid and then, you know, kids born and then now you just give them up, you know, that's not the case. It's like we're kind of prepping for it. All the ultrasounds, all the appointments, like, you know, she's going with us. Like she's there, you know, she's very involved, like I said.
Starting point is 01:06:21 So she's there every step of the way. You know, so like I said, we're kind of, we're already going. We went into this already, you know, kind of prepared. West. And then, you know, obviously, like, if anything, like, we could always reach out for mental health and counseling and stuff like that, right? You're painting, like, a beautiful picture, but, like, what have you thought about, like, when the kid gets older? Like, where's that kid's a damn brat? And then, like, you want to discipline them so bad?
Starting point is 01:06:51 And they're like, you're not my dad? That's not what I'm thinking at all. And then it's like, yes, I am. I'm thinking, Wes, I'm thinking, like, what if you see your sister-in-law, like, I don't know, give the kid a pow-pow and you're like, wait, that's my kid, like don't hit my kid. Like for discipline. Like I'm thinking that. What if the kid becomes a millionaire?
Starting point is 01:07:08 What if that kid becomes LeBron James? Because the difference between like surrogacy or adoption is low-key. They give the kid away and they kind of can take a step back. Your sister, I mean your sister-in-law and your girl seem to be close. So you're going to be in really close proximity to this kid. That is your child like by nature because you gave you and your wife. gave birth to it, but it also now belongs to the sister-in-law. And it's illegal.
Starting point is 01:07:38 Yeah. Is there a- We're not trying to kill you in by any jrish. We're just super curious. I honestly think that you're doing an amazing deed, and it takes a lot of courage to do this. I do have a question like, do you guys have a plan down the line where you're like, are we going to ever give this information and let that kid know? Or is this something that you guys plan to just keep it hush forever?
Starting point is 01:08:02 Uh, it, it, it, we're all going to obviously play it by ear. My, my thing, when we were kind of sitting down and talking about this, um, we were, we were thinking like once, you know, they turn 18 or once they turn, you know, 20, 21 or whatever, right? Once they're an adult because even now, right, my eight year old, my six year old, like, sometimes when you give them information, like people dying or, or something happens in the family, right? It's like very hard for them to understand that. And it really affects them, like, at school, um, with their friends, like, just at home, you know, like, really. affects them. So, um, I think they're not like mentally ready and prepared for that kind of information. So I do apologize for Adriano, you know, finding out, right. Just, you know, just me, I'm like, you know, just hearing it, you know, across the room or whatever that she, that she might not, you know, her parents aren't her parents, um, you know, and I, I, I really feel for her for that reason, right? Yeah. But at the same time, maybe she wasn't just mentally ready for that. And it all comes down to maturity, right? Like the previous caller where her daughter found out at 15. She took it like a chimp, right? She took it like a big girl. And it's like, it's all
Starting point is 01:09:06 about maturity and how they grow up and how they're raised, right? Yeah. So I think it's just maturity level, not necessarily age. But if it comes down to it, yeah, definitely, you know, by 18. And like I said, it's not going to be where they're going to grow up, not being loved, not being taken care of, right? They're going to be in the family. Hey, West, I got a question for you. Hold on, no, right. West, West is somebody. that is calling us up after we asked for help Adriano who hit us up on the homie helpline she is finding out through kind of just like overhearing her aunt talk smack on the phone that her aunt is her actual mom and her mom is a tia not really her mom and so she's
Starting point is 01:09:49 trying to deal with that west is somebody that's calling us up right now because him and his wife are going to do something similar from the parents perspective they see that his sister-in-law his wife's sister can't have kids, she cries. It's really something that she feels is her purpose, but she can't do it. So they've decided they're going to have a child, him and his wife, and they're going to give the child to the sister. Yeah. Whose idea was that was?
Starting point is 01:10:17 That was my wife's idea, actually. Okay. And you were okay with this? She's giving up a... And he's... He loves her. Yeah, I mean, I kind of was. I was kind of thinking about that.
Starting point is 01:10:31 For me, I'm very, like, financial, right? Like, we struggled growing up. Like, we didn't really have a lot, just like a lot of Latinos, right? But, like, why are you going to spend $50,000, $70,000 to pay for a surrogacy when we can do it for free? Wow. Obviously, there's paperwork involved, right? We're getting lawyers and stuff like that. Or for legal reasons, as far as, like, once baby is born, you know, he or should,
Starting point is 01:10:58 right? We don't know that gender is going to be a surprise gender when a baby's born. Surprise gender? What? Yeah. But you do you, you already have a boy and a girl? I'm telling you. Yes, yes, we have a boy and a girl right now. You might be giving up a lot of time.
Starting point is 01:11:10 Hey, Wes, and since you already have kids, right? How old are they again? Six and eight. Six and eight. Are they asking questions like, wow, mommy's having a new baby? Are we having a brother or sister? My wife doesn't really show. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:27 Oh, okay. It's barely. But she's going to show eventually, M-I-G. I mean. But they're not asking questions right now. For both our kids, she didn't really show. She had like a little like loading. It happens.
Starting point is 01:11:38 Mom's just getting a little weight, you know. Yeah, you know. Mom just hasn't to me. Wes, do your kids look like you, bro? Yeah, they do. Okay, what if this little kid just pops out like it's just another cookie cutter version of you? I mean, they're not like spitting image of me. Yeah, but what if this one does?
Starting point is 01:11:56 Yeah. And becomes a millionaire, Brazilian. And they name him East. Jeff Bezos. What are you going to do about that? What are these Jeff Bezos, too? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:12:06 And he's like, I don't really like my uncle, no inheritance for him. I don't know. It's kind of weird. Honestly, I mean, the only thing we can say is like, hey, we're all family. We all have to look alike. You guys are going to warp this. I like Wes. Wes, we appreciate you.
Starting point is 01:12:27 Wes, we appreciate you. Wes, keep us updated, okay, bro? We appreciate you. Yeah, definitely. Yeah, appreciate you guys. Where was he from? Mission VA. We can afford it.
Starting point is 01:12:39 So, but that's not illegal at all. No. No, they're getting lawyers. They're going to do like a legal adoption. Yeah. No black market babies. Yeah, sometimes that happens not for nothing. Like if one sibling can take care of their kids, they can give custody to another sibling.
Starting point is 01:12:54 That's essentially. what they're doing. They're going to give up their parental rights and custody. You just have to do paperwork. It's not it going to cost you like the $50,000 that it's going to Yeah, maybe he has. Yeah. So Adriana that initially hit us up. You could have you could be part of us in situation.
Starting point is 01:13:09 They may have saw your mom, maybe not being able to have kids and then they gave her one. Yeah. You know, and they just kept close. It's crazy stories to tell but clearly what we're finding is it happens in different forms. I'm just laughing again at the milestone. Every time
Starting point is 01:13:25 a milestone. Like, even Wes is like, maybe 18 birthday, 21st. I don't know. We'll play it by year. He went by maturity and I guess could, I looked it up like what time, like usually around the 25 year age is when our brains are supposed to mature. And I guess maybe it's going to affect you anyway. Baby girl, Adrianna from East L.A.
Starting point is 01:13:42 found out at 33, you know. And she's tripping. Yeah. She doesn't accepted it. No, because she has the same birth mark as who she thought was her dad. He's not. Looks nothing like the real dad that she said is her dad. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:55 I'm care of my mom says. So meaning if they never mature, you never tell them. Yeah, I guess they go off with their little brain can have. It's just like being light to your whole life. That's the thing. It is. That's what's the biggest part of it. I'm telling them as soon as they start showing some promise.
Starting point is 01:14:08 Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, that's mine. If you were wise. Yeah. Okay, okay. I know you got scared of Hodge. Yes. Farah 106, L.A.'s number one for hip-hipa. Whenos Diaz, good morning to you.
Starting point is 01:14:20 We have four tickets for you to enjoy the terror at Universal Studios. Halloween horror nights, okay? And I didn't say the other word. I said horror. Horror nights. His head snapped right up. Like, what? What?
Starting point is 01:14:33 What? What we're going? Horror nights, all right? But you have to give us, like, your best scream. Like, I always envied the girls that can scream like in the scary movies. Because I could never. Like, if I was getting killed, it'd be like, ah! That's still a scream?
Starting point is 01:14:50 No, not. I don't have the. No, it's different. I think you have that scream? I don't think so. Let me try. Like if I'm screams. That was good
Starting point is 01:14:58 I do I do it do I've always I've always envied I've always envied You guys better relax Because Greg loves a screamer he said Why? Why?

Starting point is 01:18:51 And every day it's getting harder and harder as parents to be letting your kids be on social media, especially TikTok. They're finding out some really stupid things to do that I don't even think we would be down to do. And we've done some stupid things. What's going on, Greg? All the parents better double check when their kids say they're, want to kick it with their friends? Oh, no. Because these kids are kicking doors.
Starting point is 01:19:14 Yep, check this out. This is video sent to us from a viewer in Aliso Viejo, who said over the weekend, she and her neighbors were the victims of a door kicking prank that has become popular on TikTok. Across the country over the last year, police departments have put out warnings about the trend, which is a more violent version of the old ding-dong ditch. Man. Yep.
Starting point is 01:19:39 So kids in the middle of the night are kicking on people's dole. Yes, so they'll put like, kind of like low-key, a donkey kick or a horse kick. They'll put their back to the door and just kick back. Oh my God. Some of these doors on these videos can you open wide, right? It's an unsuspecting house. If someone to kick that door open, you think Loki probably like SWAT?
Starting point is 01:20:01 Yeah. Some type of an agency, a home invasion, something like that. That is such a dangerous prank. No, like these kids must have never heard any hip-hop at all. kicking the door waving the 4-4 like that's what i would think if somebody's trying to kick in my door they're trying to harm me you know what i'm saying it's not a meaningless well didn't that kid just recently get killed for do for ding don't ditching yeah he passed away yeah for doing dindong ditch which is different than the kick one but still super tough it was a kid in
Starting point is 01:20:29 i believe texas a young kid that went and did the ding dong ditch rat as he was running away the homeowner shot him yeah as like when when you start like really having your own crib you You start to realize, like, bro, this is nothing to play about. Don't come to my door with anything. And the one that you heard in the video in Orange County, the kid's wearing like a shi-sty mask. Like, he's covering his whole face. Yeah, this is wild. So the kids are also a different complexion than us.
Starting point is 01:20:55 They're a lighter complexion. Yeah, it's a little vio. Yeah. So to them is like, he-hah-ha-ha-ha-ha. But if I saw a kid kicking in my door with a mask, hang on a lot-good. You're going to think it's a robbery. Yeah. And it's more than a couple of videos.
Starting point is 01:21:10 It's a whole trip. It's a whole trend. It's a whole trend. This is terrible. Horrible. So be careful, parents. Go watch your. And I got to think, you know, like when we were young, we did the ding-don ditching too.
Starting point is 01:21:20 All the time. That was the thing. I just wonder when it got so dangerous. Yeah. Or maybe we were just not thinking or they're not thinking. But also we were. They're not thinking of the dangers of it. No, but we would like hear from our friends like, you guys want a ding-dong ditch.
Starting point is 01:21:32 Okay. All right. Well, try it once. Not, not for me. But these people are like seeing it online and seeing like, oh, I'm missing out on fun. And they're, I feel like, I feel like they're just. mimicking it because, oh, that one was so funny. Let's do it too.
Starting point is 01:21:43 Let's go viral. Yeah, just for me also, it was apartment. So, like, you all kind of knew each other and you knew who to kind of mess with it. That the kids were messing around with you. Yeah. It's not a stranger. Like, I'm pulling up to this house and knocking. No, you go like, okay, let's go mess with, like, that lady over there.
Starting point is 01:21:59 We know that she's a little grumpy. See? So me? So, imagine you kicked in her door? No, that's different. That's insane. And that's the thing. Back then there was only doorbells.
Starting point is 01:22:07 Now there's cameras on the doorbells. Ring cameras. So it's all ring cameras. So it's like, I feel like the game's changed. You're going to get caught no matter what. That's what we're going to shyness. Yeah. Oh, gosh.
Starting point is 01:22:15 No. I did it at an apartment that had like the buzzers for every year and I would ding dong just all of them. Oh my gosh. And I just buzzed them and then one would pop in and talk to the other one. Because they're all like answering. I'm like, no, leave. That's funny.
Starting point is 01:22:30 That's funny. That was the lightheartedness. But I guess they don't see the perils of it. Us as a dozen, I guess I have lived longer, we sound so old right now. Like we've seen some things kids. Well, yeah, I mean, it's, that's what people do, especially in LA. Like, that's first sign of a home invasion. There's a whole song about it and everything.
Starting point is 01:22:48 Yeah, it's just not like a simple doorbell. This is like, boom, boom, like kicking in a door. That's scary. Watch for that, parents, if you're listening. Check in on that with your kids. You just don't know sometimes what to say. I didn't ever think I needed to tell my six and seven-year-old, six-seven. I didn't think I needed to tell my, hey, don't be kicking indoors.
Starting point is 01:23:07 Yeah. But you need to now. Like, just add that to the. brush your teeth, make sure you change underwear and don't kick in the... Yeah, don't do no B&E. What is that? Breaking and entering. Oh.

Starting point is 01:24:13 We're proud of her. We're proud of her. That's awesome. By the way, if you end up going to Coachella next year, Carol G's the last, on Sunday. You're going to see a bunch of orange, especially with Carol G's fans. They dress up. If her wig is red, they are wearing red wigs, right? Right now, her color for this new album is orange, so just a bunch of orange.
Starting point is 01:24:30 Oh, okay, it makes sense. Do you think they're going to come in, like, show girls? Oh, yeah, that's part of it. Tropicanas. Safari invite us. Cardi B Her, she's dropping an album She's doing
Starting point is 01:24:42 It's like the interview I never thought I needed Is seeing her with Kelly Rowland From Destiny's Child Like they had a low-key This makes me feel like Kelly Rowland Can have her own show Like a talk show
Starting point is 01:24:52 Yes The way she's able to talk to artists Yeah to make Cardi B feel so comfortable That she was actually talking to her And telling her you know what Like I've been trying to be A girl's girls in the past
Starting point is 01:25:03 Right But it's actually like Backfire Yeah they backstabbed me before And so she was just telling Katie, like how she understands how, like, online the internet can be really mean. So she slid into girls' DMs, but it hasn't worked out for her. Sometimes when I see, like, a new little thing coming up, and I feel like they're kind of cool. And I feel like people be dragging them.
Starting point is 01:25:24 I'd be sliding in their DMs like, it's like, hey, you know this temporary. This is a good and bad thing. Good and bad thing. But sometimes you got to know who to do it with because I have done that two things that done when and fuck my men and all that. Oh. Yes. Wow. That's what everybody's thinking.
Starting point is 01:25:38 Who done it? I'll be in the DM being like, girl, don't even listen to online, don't even listen to Twitter. And then come to find out, they say thank you. But then they're also trying to get or have gotten hooked up with, I'm assuming, I'll say. Oh my God. Yeah, at the time. Damn. Guess that celebrity.
Starting point is 01:25:55 There are guests, boy. Yeah, there are guesses. Like, people are thinking it's either Christian Rock or sweetie. Chrison Rock, Blue Faces, Baby Mama. Yeah. Also has some music. Just be realistic here. No, for like, was she on bad girls club or some?
Starting point is 01:26:11 Yeah, bad girls club. And then blue face had. Yeah, yeah, something like that. That whole thing. Zeus, Zeus network. Okay. And then the second one was Sweetie. No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 01:26:21 Dude, when I heard Sweetie, I'm like, don't be pinning them. I don't, you think it's Christian? I don't think it's Sweetie. Sweetie did tweet something like, hey, okay, baby or something. Okay, honey, she tweeted that yesterday. I didn't see that one. Check the tweet real quick? I don't think it's sweetie I will not put them against each other yeah I don't want to do that
Starting point is 01:26:42 I don't think sweetie's gone backlash for like Cardi to be like yeah when I see the internet turning on someone then I get her DMs she said hey hey hey baby's yeah oh what does that mean okay okay and then also the reason I'm like ah did that actually happen is because obviously sweetie dated quavo yeah which is offsets group member of the bigos which would lead to say that she messed with two out of the three Migos, which would be like an outrageous claim. But I think if it was specifically sweetie, then that would have been the Cardi story. True. You know, like someone that dated my man's homie got with him versus someone that hit in the DMs got.
Starting point is 01:27:26 Like it would have been maybe a little bit closer. I get you. Like, don't keep girls around you because they'll date your man's friend just to get with your man. She would be more specific to that story. It would be that type of a feeling. She would never do that. Sliding into a DM. She would never do that.
Starting point is 01:27:41 No. No. But Cardi did say, you know what? You just got to be careful who you're DMing. Be careful with me. She went on. Speaking of Offset, she went on to talk about Offset, right? Yeah, so then she got into like Offset and how like their breakup was really hard.
Starting point is 01:27:57 And it was so hard that she actually had to go to someone for advice. Who do you think Cardi B went to for advice on relationship with Offset? Which celebrity? Oh, a celebrity. I was going to say a password. Oh, that's actually good. Father Greg Boyle. She's been to Father Greg Boyle.
Starting point is 01:28:16 So like an older celebrity? Maybe, no, just a celebrity. Who would Cardi B go to for advice about offset in her, their relationship, their divorce, the cheat? Kelly. Kelly Rowling? Yeah. No. Oh, Dilemma?
Starting point is 01:28:28 Yeah. Nikki Manach. Definitely. What? It was a trip to find out. It was a trip to find out. It was this one. I even talk to Shakira and I was like, how do you get over this funk?
Starting point is 01:28:41 She was like, Shakira! Shakira! Yes! Le-lo-la-l-l-l-Lel-Let! Shakira, my hip's lying right now, girl. What do I do? Listen. I even talked to Shakira and I was like, how do you get over this funk?
Starting point is 01:28:53 She was like, it takes time, but it's like, it almost felt like, I felt like I felt like I was withdrawing love. And I'm not even trying to sound exaggerated. Like, because I can't eat, I can't sleep, I can't think, I can't work. I can't even look at my. kid's face because it's like I just want to cry just look at him like yeah so she kicked she found out by her soccer player yeah yeah yeah the jar of peanut butter story right yeah yeah yeah yeah she found out reportedly allegedly
Starting point is 01:29:28 because she was on tour she comes home it's it's either a jelly or a peanut butter that he doesn't eat yeah but when she went to go grab it it was eaten in like So she's like, no one eats this but me and whoever cheated on. Oh, that's a report. Yeah. That's the story that we know. It was in the maid, right? No, no.
Starting point is 01:29:47 No, because the maid in her are really close. Oh, yeah, yeah, the maid in her. The maid kind of helped. It's almost, yeah. It's the whole thing. But it's so sad, you guys. But she was honestly, like, Cardi was really going through it. Like she was saying, like, she can't go out anymore.
Starting point is 01:30:00 She can't see Dela. She just wants to be inside. And she just said, like, you know what? Like, when I knew, like, me and officer were done, Like I just knew it was like it's over. Yeah. And when you know you're done, I don't know what it is. You just know that it's done in you.
Starting point is 01:30:16 It just dies in you. But when it dies, it's very painful. Yeah. So that's why she had to reach out to Shakira because she's like, you know what? Like you went through it. Maybe you can help me. Yo, my stomach hurts. Shakira, I need you.
Starting point is 01:30:30 No, but you know what? Who needs Peptobismo and Shakira exists? I can't eat. But it might not work out for her because. Because after that, like, they have a song together now. That's awesome. Hold on. What did she say? What did she say?
Starting point is 01:30:43 Punteria. Punteria. Yeah, okay, okay. What does that mean? Like aim. Oh, yeah. She's so good. You got good aim, yeah, yeah, yeah.
