All right, this is very exciting, my friends. Welcome to the first ever edition of Ariel and
the Bad Girl, but I'm not sure if we're going to stick with that name, if I'm being honest.
It might be Ariel and the Brazilian Girl. It might be the Ariel and Lucy show. I don't know
what it is, but we're going to figure it out as time goes on. I'm Ariel Hawani, and this right
here is our old friend, Luciana Andrade. Did I say that right?
Yeah, kind of.
Back by popular demand.
Back by popular demand.
She made her debut on the MMA Hour just a couple of weeks ago as a fill-in translator for Charles Oliveira.
And I have to say the expectations were a little bit low, and you freaking knocked it out of the park.
I think, dare I say, you became like an internet sensation, a darling, if you will, after that. And then the wheels started to turn in my head
and I thought to myself, you know, I've never had a female co-host. I think I've only met
Luciana once in person, but we seem to have a good, you know, rapport as they say in the business.
And people like when I answer questions, I don't want to keep doing it by myself.
Perhaps we should try this out where we both answer non-MMA, non-combat questions about
all kinds of things, life, career, advice, jobs, whatever, awkward social situations,
which I excel at, food, whatever.
It doesn't matter.
And have a little fun on this here program.
And to my surprise, I actually thought she'd say no.
She said yes hello how are
you i mean i'm here for it i live for this moment it's time you were waiting for this moment this
is it this is your big break i only waited nine years wow you've been waiting nine years for me
to ask you to do this show not really you were asking me yes You were waiting for me to get on the show at some point since 2017, if I recall.
Yes.
And I was, you know, playing tough.
Hard to get.
It only took me nine years since I started with the UFC to kind of do something like that.
And I feel, yes, I feel like, you know, in your role, you're kind of typecast and people don't think that you have maybe a personality brain
smarts and i think you really shocked people what do you think i mean the feedback was quite
positive and let's be honest on the internet on on youtube not usually very positive i mean i'm
i'm a real person yes you are shocked by it i'm not famous like ariel you guys so obviously i
have a normal life i for many years i had monday to friday type of
jobs that people had no idea about and most of the girls actually do by the way the other ring girls
they have a separate life from walking around showing their rounds so yeah what was that job
i worked for this company i was uh director director there what do you mean already you're stonewalling
me six minutes director for this company uh it's hilarious so i i can't say much about it but it
was a social app the idea was to create an app where basically you could post pictures but you could also sell things and then
i said you know what but i feel like that's very similar to what instagram is doing you know when
you can click and go right but yeah the idea was the idea was already there and then it turned into
like the ceo wanting to be at tony robbins and all sorts of things the strategy changing all the
time and it was hilarious.
That's all I can say.
And then you bailed.
Let's just say it didn't work.
Okay.
Well,
perhaps we'll,
we'll learn more about that experience.
Fans.
Yes.
Down the road,
a few more glasses of wine in which you are partaking right now.
Yes.
Well done.
Part of the fun. Yeah. Part of the fun yeah part of the fun
why not you'll be drinking for the both of us because if i drink like that much of that it's
a whole other side of me show your side no side of you to to the people that are watching us right
now why not we'll build towards that well why not well done good pun joke when you have an accent because no one noticed that i said
wine no it was good i noticed it um so people may know i do a segment called on the nose i answer
questions they're usually uh combat mma related they also ask me sometimes like life questions
and i thought let me separate the two so we're going to be answering some life questions people
sent us a bunch of questions over at my sub stack arielrielhawani.substack.com. And we picked the best bunch. And shout out to my good friend,
moderator Lewis, who helped me pick the bunch, put them in a nice little package.
Now we should say, I didn't look at any of them beforehand. You might have peeked at some
beforehand, but I'll give you pass. I think over time, you shouldn't look at them to make
it more spontaneous. So you may know what some of these are all about. I have no idea. I haven't looked
at a thing. I like it that way. All right. Are you ready?
Of course. Let's do it.
Okay, let's do it. Number one, Juan Sanchez says,
Hello, Luciana and Ariel. Love this idea. You two had a very entertaining segment
two weeks ago on the show. Question for both of you. Coming from
your backgrounds where you've spoken a different language, Luciana Portuguese, Ariel French,
what phrase can you think of in those languages that better describes what you're trying to
convey rather than the English translation? Much love and hope this collaboration continues.
What do you make of this? And correct me if I'm wrong, Luciana, correct me if I'm wrong,
you told me that there was one question that you didn't really understand am i wrong in
thinking i don't know why my voice is cracked interesting choice was this the one was this
jesus what a way to start what a freaking way to start do you do you understand the question i think
what he's trying to say is is there a phrase in your native tongue of portuguese of course you're
from brazil you're from Brazil.
You're from Curitiba, correct?
By the way, can I get some love for the pronunciation of the Curitiba?
Curitiba.
That's not bad.
Say it again.
Curitiba.
Yeah, that was pretty good.
I mean, for a gringo, not bad.
Not bad at all.
Thank you.
I appreciate it.
I think what he's trying to say is, is there a phrase in Portuguese that you sometimes like to say while you're talking to your friends who speak Portuguese family that there isn't really a translation in English.
Like you like that phrase better.
I could think of one.
No.
And I'd even read these beforehand.
I often say in French, joie de vivre.
Do you know what joie de vivre means?
No.
Joie de vivre means like a zest for life. Like you have a joie de vivre do you know what joie de vivre means no joie de vivre means like a zest for life
like you have a joie de vivre like you're high on life joie is happiness vivre is to live
and i don't know if there's a phrase like that so i often say like i want to have
a consistent joie de vivre you know what i mean yeah yeah so i think not a phrase, but a word it's called saudade. So saudade is the feeling.
It's, it's, it's the feeling of missing something. It could be a smell, could be a food. It could be
someone, it could be a moment in time. It could be anything. So you can say, I miss my dad I miss my mom's food
I miss my mom's food
You know, it could be a lot of things
So I can't find like a word exactly
It could be like I miss
But it's still not
It doesn't translate saudade
Literally the way it is
I like it
I think it's such a Brazilian word
I love it
Sort of like nostalgia
It's like a nostalgic feeling, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
So there you go.
You figured it out.
All right.
And we're off.
Samir, congrats on the new show.
My question is this.
If you guys could switch lives with anyone or anything for a day, who slash what would it be and why?
Personally, I'd like to be an astronaut for obvious reasons.
I don't know what those reasons are, but I guess it's a pretty cool life.
What about you?
Space.
Pretty cool.
Okay.
So, question.
Yeah.
Any person at any moment in time or people that are alive now?
No, any moment in time.
Because it would be pretty cool to experience what old ancient civilizations, you know, experience.
Like, I don't know, go back to the Egyptians, go back to the Romans, go back to what happened there, right?
But if I had to pick one person, assuming that, you know, it existed, and don't get mad at me, I just happened, I wasn't there.
Okay.
Let's say Jesus Christ. me. I just happened. I wasn't there. Okay. But let's say Jesus Christ.
Wow.
Really?
Yeah.
Not on that day.
I was going to say, it didn't really end well for Jesus.
Yeah, no.
No, but maybe on those years, you know, 30 to 33, where we don't know much about, you know.
Right.
Yeah.
Are you very religious?
No, I was raised Catholic.
You know, Brazil is huge.
Most people, I think, are Christian in Brazil.
Went to Catholic schools, did all the rituals, you know, communion, confirmation, Adventist schools, Catholic universities.
So, but let's put it that way. Like I, I have a belief that there is, you know,
a higher power of being a light, however you want to call it. I believe in doing good, being a good
person and doing the best you can for, for your community and things like that. But I don't know necessarily about the stories,
you know, that we've been told over time. So it's such a touchy feeling, a touchy subject, right?
You know, people do get very sensitive about it, but yeah, will be your answer.
Thank you for asking. By the way, is this your secret way of saying that you wish you were Jewish?
Because as you know, I didn't say that. Well jesus was a jew till the very end i feel like this you
know what is interesting growing up in brazil all my neighbors were uh christians i never met a
single jewish person until i moved to the u.s i thought you're gonna say until you met me which
would have been incredible uh really till you really there Jews in Brazil? Yeah. No, I mean, there are. It's just where I
lived, the communities, the neighborhoods, I never met a single one. And then even when I was
living in the U.S., I'll be honest, I'm completely ignorant to some religions, you know, in terms of
like traditions. So, I was living in Miami at a building.
It was coral.
It was called Turnberry.
Okay.
Every, you know, Christmas holiday seasons, they would put the Hanukkah.
Yes.
Well done.
Yeah.
And I was like, what's up with that?
You know, and then I learned a little bit.
I know you have like all the gifts every night or not, but I still don't know much of it.
But yeah, I didn't grow up with any Jewish kids.
Wow.
Well, you'll make up for lost time here.
And I'll teach you about all the customs.
Shabbat dinner is a great one.
The challah.
Do you know about the challah?
The bread, the braided bread, the candles.
It's a tremendous custom.
No?
Unfamiliar with all that?
No. Okay, perfect. It's great. It's tremendous. I don't know. Mine is, I feel like a very
superficial one. But the first I like to go with the first thing that comes to mind. Like I feel
like being an NBA player would be a tremendous life, right? Like you're an athlete, you're in
incredible shape. The world is watching you play a sport um which one
i mean it feels like lebron james has a great life but i don't know are you a big lebron fan
i'm not basketball wasn't popular in brazil right and i was already an adult when i moved here so i
don't know much about it's just such a good life to be an athlete, right? And they are very tall.
They're very tall.
They're very fit.
I have been working out lately,
so I feel like I'm getting on par with them.
I have not.
You have not?
No, you said you have or you haven't.
I have.
I have.
Have you noticed?
I can see this light is blinding me.
Wow, okay.
Thanks.
I can only see myself right now.
All right, fair enough.
Let's move along to the next one.
Francisco, congrats, Luciana and Ariel.
Brilliant work by Luciana translating Dubronx's interview.
By the way, side note, did Charles hit you up on the side and say thank you?
Did he say anything?
Not really.
I think I tagged him or retweeted something that just translated for Charles,
and he replied with a obrigado.
Nothing? Nothing more than that? You helped him out big time I do I did like a solid solid for nothing are you cool
with him yeah I mean I the funny thing is when people talk about ring girls they think we are
partying backstage I don't talk to the athletes I don't fraternize yeah i get there for the wings you
know i get on the line i'm like okay it's time to go up and then i do the rounds the next day i don't
you know chat i know if you are part of the staff depending on your role i guess you
you have to interact with them more i don't have that so no okay uh anyway his question is
have you been reading books lately what kind slash
authors keep up the great work on the mma i've been watching the show for ages and absolutely
love it thank you very much what about you books are you a big book reader i mean recently it's
funny other than like legal books like after what is that kind of like a self-help to help you cope with the trauma.
Wow.
After the bar exam.
I have a bunch of, you know, Mary's basics, all the laws we relate.
But yeah, other than that, recently, I mean, I like self-help.
I just haven't had a time to read.
So I guess what comes to mind, very by the way i think the mark mason's
book fun reading but not nothing like right what kind of self-help just like how to cope with life
with the bullshit like how to say more f's to the people that deserve them okay who do you want to
say f you to you know funny enough You know, I'm like at peace.
How about you?
I would like to say F you to a lot of people, if I'm being honest.
But, well, I don't know if we can get into all that.
That's why we need the wine.
That's why we need the wine.
But, you know, I was reading this book.
I was actually just in Miami.
My brother got married a couple weekends ago.
I like your subject.
I like that. He got married. couple of weekends ago. I like that.
Uh,
he got married and I have the book right over here.
No,
on your fake,
on your fake library.
Yes.
Spilled my water.
Did you hear that?
The water spilling?
I heard that.
It was a mess of a situation here on my carpet and my socks are all wet.
Uh,
this is action Bronson's.
Do you know action Bronson?
No.
Action Bronson. I'm not from me no action bronson is like you know do you know brazilian altars no but but i
don't live in brazil yeah no exactly but i you live in america i can't just i would love to just
download all the the knowledge you're gonna get cooler now um action bronson is one of
the coolest human beings on the planet he's he's a rapper he's an author he's a host of a tv show
he's a cook he's a chef he's this big dude with a big beard he's actually a huge ufc fan uh he's
from new york and he used to weigh i think, around 450 pounds or something like that.
Maybe I'm adding too much.
Maybe it was around four.
And then during the pen—
I put that in kilos.
I speak kilos.
Oh, Jesus.
I'm kidding.
By the way, does that offend you, Jesus?
Because I said it to someone who's very religious, and I think they got offended when I said it.
I hope people didn't get offended.
I'm truly curious about it.
You know?
No,
no.
I don't,
I don't have,
I see Jesus as like,
Jesus,
are you as a Christian?
I think he existed.
I just,
I'm just curious to see how things,
you know,
really wait,
wait,
I gotta get into Chihuahua before she loses.
Okay.
All right.
Oh,
I see.
I'm just like very curious on what, what happened, how it happened.
You know, that would solve so many, you know.
Yes.
And then we could stop being blamed for it.
True.
You think the Jews killed them?
No.
Okay.
Romans, right?
Yeah.
Okay.
Anyway, Action Bronson was.
Ultimately bad people, right?
Bad people.
Yes.
Whoever they are. You don't condone murder.
Yeah, right.
Yeah.
He's great and he lost a lot of weight.
He now is like super fit, but he's very funny and he smokes a lot of drugs.
And one day I went to his house and he was smoking drugs and something he was doing.
I think it was hashish, hash, while watching MMA prelims.
Did you have a glass of wine there?
I had matzo ball soup.
Have you ever had matzo ball soup?
I don't even know what that is.
It's a soup.
This is horrible.
Matzo ball soup is the greatest soup of all time.
It's like the ultimate comfort food, especially for Jews.
It's a ball with chicken.
They have some good ones in LA, by the way.
They do?
I'm going to try if my delivery...
Yes, look up matzo ball soup
and next time you'll tell us
whether or not it was good.
Here's Dylan.
Hey there, Ariel and Luciana.
I'm a journalism graduate out of Brisbane, Australia.
Good day.
And just landed my first broadcasting gig for a Super Smash Brothers esports tournament in my city. I was
just curious, how did you prepare for your first on-air slash broadcasting gig? And do you have
any advice or tricks of the trade you could share with a first-timer? I hope everyone has a lovely
rest of their week. Thank you for all you do. You're an inspiration to me and many. Sincerely, Dylan. By the way, how nice are these people, right?
Very nice. Very nice.
I think you were expecting some...
Congratulations right away on the new kid.
But I think you were expecting some real creeps. Everyone's like very cool, right?
I know. It's surprisingly good.
So I guess he was talking to me there. I mean, obviously, it's been a long time.
I would get a couple of my first ever jobs in TV.
I got so, like, I remember the first time I did the NBA
because it was a big deal for me.
I was working for ESPN.
My heart was beating so much
that I felt like it was going to come out of my throat.
So that was a little much to deal with.
Also, I would overthink things.
I would write things down like questions, interviews.
I used to write all my questions down. Now I don't write a thing. I don overthink things. I would write things down like questions, interviews. I used to write all my questions down.
Now I don't write a thing.
I don't prepare anything.
I just, if I know that Charles Oliveira is coming on the show, I obviously am aware of
who he is.
I'm aware of what he's done, what he has coming up, all that.
But I don't like to write questions because if you and I were going out for coffee as
friends, right?
I'm not bringing a sheet of questions to the meetup.
You're saying something.
I'm saying something.
You're answering.
I'm following up.
That's how a good conversation.
So I like to think of interviews more as conversations than interviews, if you get what I'm saying.
Yeah.
So, I mean, I'm not a journalist, but I would think that preparation gives you confidence too, right?
A thousand percent.
The more I've done stuff.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Where I'm like, shit, I didn't really.
It doesn't make it any easier if you're afraid of speaking in public or big crowds or things like that.
My guess is it does help.
You know what's crazy? When I was in college, I had so much social anxiety, which was for a whole other reason that we can get into at another time. But I used to wait until I was sleeping in a dorm. You know what a dorm is, right?
Yeah.
I used to wait until I didn't hear anyone walking around 2, 3 in the morning just to go to the bathroom to brush
my teeth and come back into my room because I didn't want to talk to anyone. That's brutal.
Yeah, it was horrible. Do you know blue diamond almonds? No. They're just a kind of almond.
I don't know a lot. You're going to learn. I can't eat those almonds anymore because I used to just
eat that for dinner because I was too nervous to go to the cafeteria to have dinner among other kids.
So to do this now, like to do show.
Yeah.
What a comeback.
Crazy, right?
It's funny because I can't relate at all.
I don't think I was shy a single day of my life.
God bless.
Ever, ever.
Since I was a kid, I was always a-off extrovert oh my god somebody's
calling me what is this wow don't they know my friend mariana in the middle of the thing wow
um yeah i was never shy college especially no it's funny people ask me uh how was it when you
became a ring girl were you afraid of the crowds?
And I'm like, no, really?
I wasn't afraid at all.
I wasn't shy at all.
The thing for me was I didn't want to mess with the cards or just fall in front of people.
And I'll say that some funny things happened over the years, but at least not on my birthday.
Like you messed up the numbers?
There was one time. That was actually the only time I did that. I know the girls like happen a bunch of
times with other girls too. So I'm not the only one. I was, it was a fight in Brazil. And I don't
remember, I think it was like me, Camille and Jenny, and we're doing like one, two, three,
one, two, three, or whatever it was. So I was doing consistently third rounds and i went inside to to grab something when i came
back um i guess some fight ended earlier and then it changed the order whatever and i was supposed
to do a number two so i grabbed third because they said it's your turn it's your turn so i just
grabbed the three no one said anything and then i'm walking around and I'm like, everybody's like making so much noise.
And I'm like,
damn,
I'm like killing it today.
You know,
Dan,
on the top of my game.
Yes.
Then I walk a little bit more and I'm like,
that's kind of weird.
You know,
until I actually see a guy doing this up and I'm like,
I have number three.
And I'm like,
Oh shoot.
So I just flip.
And then it says UFCfc and everybody's
that's what it was and i was like are you in trouble for that
it's like happens you know because because the way it works you know the broadcasts
they usually don't show the second round um it's they for sure show the first rounds
and sometimes the third but the second they don't.
But they see in advance.
They're so, you know, the communication on the ground is just so fast.
They know it all.
So, but it happened like I almost fell from the chair one time.
I've seen girls falling from the chair and messing with the numbers too.
That was my only time.
Well, the lesson there is It's okay to mess up
It's not the end of the world
Sometimes early on in our careers
We think if we mess up once
We're done
It's over
So the lesson there is
Don't take it too seriously
Don't overthink it
Have fun
Be yourself
And good things will happen
Yeah it happens
Yeah
Yeah I wasn't
I wasn't worried
Here's Hut
Very exciting stuff you got going on Helwwani. Thank you. I'm on board. Thank you.
Question. GSP has mentioned during several interviews that he believes he has been abducted by aliens.
He talks about losing time and believes aliens are wise.
So my question is, what are your thoughts on alien beings, UFOs, UAPs, etc.?
I don't know what a UAP is. Do you?
I don't. I actually remember thinking the same thing. Let me close this door before
dogs start barking, I guess, noises. I don't know what's UAP.
I don't know what UAP is, but I guess the major question here is the main thing is like UFOs,
aliens. Can I be honest? I don't care about aliens if they're out there
i don't even think about it you don't care at all the people people there's like a picture
and they're like oh my god there's an alien extraterrestrial ufo who gives a fuck okay great
there's things out there by the way there's things all around us here there's like foxes and deers outside yeah who cares you know i here's what i think i never i don't think
i was abducted i don't want to be i don't think that that's pretty no that's not cool at all
i don't see it we watch the movies um i think there must be something out there. The universe is in check.
I mean,
endless.
Right.
Um,
but I was thinking just the other day,
uh,
actually I had this thought for,
for a while.
Okay.
Um,
if,
if there is like advanced civilizations or whatever you call it,
beings.
Yeah.
It could be even like here on planet Earth
and we just don't know where
because it's just so massive.
Right.
And if they are out there,
I mean, I hope they're friendly
because we have no chance.
And I also hope that I get some clearance
in my lifetime.
You get some what?
Some, you know, some, some.
Oh, some like confirmation.
Yeah. I feel like it should Oh, some like confirmation. Yeah.
I feel like it should be, there should be a rule.
If you're about to die, because that way you're not going to tell anyone, whatever.
You should have access to some like deep secrets.
It'd be pretty cool.
Okay.
So my, my thing is, first of all, do you believe in heaven and hell?
Yes, I guess. and hell yes i guess but not the way i guess the bible tells you uh here's my view i do
i believe in reincarnation i think you live multiple lives and here's your hell however you
misbehave in a previous life you pay for it i'm sure people will make fun of it, but that's what I believe.
I have every right to believe that.
God bless you.
Yeah, until you eventually reach some level of, you know, holiness.
I don't know.
It's so complex.
Sure.
No, no.
I mean, everyone's allowed to believe.
How do you believe?
I want to believe there's heaven and hell, but I also believe, you know how you can't tell anyone?
You want to believe, but you do believe?
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I want to believe.
Like, I want to feel that.
Yeah.
I want to.
I'm like, I hope so.
Yeah.
Because imagine you die and then there's nothing else.
If you do believe there's nothing else, what makes you be a good person for right now
what makes you keep going for karma there's nothing else nothing else you can't be a an
idiot you can't be like an asshole to people because then karma i believe in karma there's
no punishment there's no you know i'm saying but I also think religion does keep people in check.
Yes.
If you are afraid of going to hell, you kind of behave.
Yes. There's a higher being judging you.
I kind of believe as well, like when you pass away, you know how you can't pinpoint the moment you fall asleep, right?
It just kind of happens.
Is there an alien there?
What's going on?
It's my other chihuahua. Oh, geez. how many chihuahuas you got two two i wish i would have more yeah wow really him
yeah isn't two enough never enough if you have one chihuahua for the people that have chihuahuas
out there you know there it's never enough not hey come here i would have a thousand two hours if it could okay
so much um anyway back to what i was saying when you fall asleep you don't know exactly when you
fall asleep i also feel like that's how you die too like you will never be able to pinpoint it
just kind of the lights shut off i don't know if the you don't think so you really think like your
your soul goes up to the sky i think you you have a moment where you, your soul, you kind of understand everything.
You've been there before and then you meet some other people and then you kind of go back or not.
That's what I think.
Have you ever watched any documentaries about people that had near death experiences or things like that?
I'm sure there's a scientific term for that.
It's like your brain, blah, blah, blah.
But my godfather years ago
had a very serious motorcycle accident
and he lost a leg.
Oh, wow.
He almost died.
He actually had a situation
where he was technically dead
for, I don't know, seconds or a minute.
I don't remember. And he came back he was in icu for
a while eventually he told the story that he had that in like a situation where he was like in this
place where it has a bunch of it's a lilies bunch and he could see them and touch and then like
something that he can't even describe some evil creature was playing with his wedding ring like this.
He put it on.
And I don't know.
He kind of like asked for a chance not to this creature for God, whatever.
And he came back.
And I remember the joke because my godfather was such a like nice person.
I remember the joke my dad said.
If this happened to him, we're going straight to hell.
Oh, my gosh.
Yeah.
Wow, that is creepy.
I hope there's something else.
Yeah.
Jeez, Louise.
All right.
So maybe that's the confirmation.
Do you have old memories, super old memories?
Of what?
Like super young?
Yes.
Yeah.
I have memories. I remember the day i got out of my crib some people
make fun of me because of it but it's it's true i have like really good memory and i've always had
um i remember that i remember one time i was probably i wasn't even a year old i don't think
i remember my dad taking us to this place which later later I found out it was like this grass behind this area we're living.
And I remember feeling it.
I remember one time my mom sent a photographer to the house to take pictures.
I was probably like, I was a toddler.
So I remember those things.
And this is weird, completely unrelated, maybe.
When I was a kid, probably four or five five years old we went to a house that some distant
relative bought first time everybody was there and i knew the house and i kept saying we've been
here before right mom we've been here before and everybody was like plenty of that stock
and i was annoying them so much and they said no you've never been here like you know be quiet
and then i kind of described the house.
And I said, no, but there's a basement and there's this bedroom upstairs.
And then, like, everybody kind of, like, the owner had goosebumps.
And she was like, she's actually right.
Whoa.
And then they gave a tour of the house.
And I remember, like, me recognizing the house.
How weird is that?
That is creepy as hell.
Yeah, Very weird. So for many reasons in life, I do believe there is some sort of, you know, reset, go back.
Oh, my gosh.
Jeez.
Like you're next level.
Because if you only have one shot, how unfair is that?
Think about it.
Some people come to this life and, you know, tough upbringings and sometimes disabilities and, you know, challenges.
And then others are just so, I don't know, lucky.
Right.
And you have one shot.
How is it just, you know, it is what it is.
Well, don't they say like, not to get too graphic but aren't the chances of you the egg
and the thing like one in a million so isn't that lucky enough i don't know i i'd rather think that
there is a reason for everything it keeps me going okay yeah otherwise i'm just gonna like
be drinking wine every day i know and just be a freaking horrible person. Yeah. Here's Eric. Absolutely
love this idea. My ex-girlfriend, now best friend, interesting, is Brazilian and moved back to Brazil
about a year ago. She's stressing out about how she can come back to the States one day. So Luciana,
I'd love to get your advice on ways to improve a Brazilian's chances of getting approved for a visa
to the US. Again, can't wait for this segment going forward.
Thank you.
What about that?
Okay.
Very.
Here we get into the legal immigration.
I'm giving it.
In no way, I'm giving a legal advice because I'm not licensed here yet.
But since it's a public information, you know.
What?
Do you have to give that disclaimer?
It's hard to say because it's really case by case.
I don't know what her background is, if she has a degree or not.
Does she have relatives here?
When she lived in the U.S., was she, did she overstay?
Was she under a visa?
Was it a tourist visa?
Did she cross the border?
I don't know.
Let's say she did everything right and And then she had to go back,
whatever. There are a couple of ways. First, and I guess fastest one, we all know it's through
marriage to an American citizen. I would not recommend that unless it's a real relationship,
because the immigration officers will check that information they verify everything
they look at your social media your history they interview you you need to have joint bank
accounts same address whatever um a lot of people apply for student visas from brazil or they come
here and then they try to update their visas um but again that doesn't necessarily give you a path
for a green card uh and you're technically
here just for study so depending on your financial situation you're not allowed to work even i don't
think uh i think they were trying to change that during the pandemic or something anyways um then
obviously if you're like let's say you you're a total badass at what you do and you have international recognition you
have extraordinary abilities you can always try to get sponsored by a company or an individual but
but then again you have to be better than any other american to be here to to apply for like
i believe a h1b visa so sure there are there are options you can also be an investor, but I think the investment is pretty big.
I believe like $800,000 maybe.
So I guess my advice is to speak to an immigration attorney and explore what your options are because it's hard to give an advice without knowing the details.
Oh, no, no.
By the way, what do you have?
That's a lot to learn.
Yeah.
What do you have?
I have a green card.
Green card.
I'm applying for...
You had a green card at some point.
I have a green card.
Now I'm a citizen.
So I'm applying for citizenship this year.
Okay.
So...
And you're going to get it because you're getting married to an American, right?
No, because then I would have to restart my whole process. I already have the green card is less for 10 years and then you can
always like renew it but what i'll just apply for citizenship um but yeah that that's my advice
uh speak to an immigration attorney because obviously it's case by case so it's harder
so your advice is basically don't ask me this question.
Go to Athens.
Or marry her.
Maybe you're still in love.
Maybe the love is still there.
Who knows?
I would love that.
Can you imagine if we actually were responsible for us?
Oh, this is going to happen.
Trust me.
I've heard these stories.
People like to come together through these types of shows.
This is Taco Enthusiast who says,
Hi, Luciana and Ariel.
Congratulations on the new segment.
Luciana, question for you.
But Ariel, I would love your thoughts too if you feel comfortable chiming in.
It's a bit of a long one here, so buckle up.
Political leanings aside, it's impossible to deny that Amazon deforestation under Bolsonaro.
Did I say that correctly?
Bolsonaro. Bolsonaro.
Bolsonaro, excuse me, I gave it a little Italian twist there, rose to historic highs and indigenous land rights dipped to historic lows.
Moreover, Amazon or Amazon released a study showing the negligent impacts of deforestation had on living conditions and wages for local communities, i.e. mining,
ranching, etc., did not improve local economic fortune or development. Living in Ecuador,
I felt a deep connection to the Amazon and its communities and would hate to see the Amazon's
natural and cultural heritage disappear for short-term corporate gains. My question is,
what do you feel is the best way to approach these communities from a development perspective? Is there a way to improve local standard of living, education, and access to
opportunity without sacrificing biodiversity? Is the answer to just leave the rainforest alone?
Would love your thoughts. Now, let me say this. I'm a stupid sports guy. I usually get asked,
do you think John Jones should fight Stipe Miocic? I don't get asked about freaking deforestation and the Amazon.
Please tell me you have an answer to this question because I have no idea what this guy was just talking about.
I mean, tough one.
Yeah.
I don't actually think I'm qualified to give a proper answer.
Yes, you're qualified.
He's specifically asking you.
I know.
But let me say this.
Brazil has a history of exploitation. And even though we're technically a free country, different types of
abuse, usually abuse of power,
you know, still happen in
every shape and form, probably because
of the way everything started.
You know, Brazil was discovered
in 1500, became
independent in 1800.
You know, so it's
somewhat cultural in certain
areas, you know, this exploitation, let's put it that way.
Right, right.
Without, I don't want to offend anybody, but it is true.
Okay.
So I remember when this study came out and obviously that president provided other researches saying that numbers were actually lower under his administration that, you know, the previous presidents were way worse when it comes to protecting Amazon, blah, blah, blah. But just like in Brazil, and just like here in Brazil,
there's a lot of division when it comes to politics. Lobbying in the government is strong
and powerful. The personal agenda is to take over public interests. We know that. And to be fair,
Amazon has been neglected by politicians and also exploited by both local and internationals for a very long time now.
I believe there was, you know, and by the way, are you reading this right now?
No, I mean, I thought through this.
OK, wow. This is very impressive.
Are you not? Are you? Did you write this down? Be honest with me right now.
No, I did. I didn't look at the answers.
I know. But did you. Are you reading off a me right now no i did i didn't look at the answers so obviously i don't want to i know but did you are you reading off a script right now no i haven't here my
but i do uh i do think
sorry sorry go ahead like we we i believe we still had that we used to have like a
an indigenous community in amazon that still didn't have, they were not in touch
with the outside world. I hope it's still the same way. So imagine like to them, we're the aliens
still. So how do you do that? How do you protect those people? Part of me kind of feels like, yeah,
you should just leave it alone because everything that humans touch, we ruin it, right? But even to protect it, you got to be there.
Yeah.
So it's a very complicated issue.
And I feel like there are a lot of non-profits,
or I mean, a lot of organizations and volunteers
trying to help people, you know, like education, healthcare, blah, blah, blah.
But the problem is they're outnumbered.
And again, politics, right? Like, so all the resources are, it's tricky, right? education healthcare blah blah blah but the problem is they're outnumbered and again politics
right like so all the resources are it's tricky right it's very tricky so i have a friend a college
friend she went to law school with me and she's doing like a great work at the borders i think
like the venezuela and it's it's pretty crazy because you have people coming from like the
other countries and then the people from
brazil the people they are trying to find you know like gold and this and that and then you have the
farmers and it's it's just a lot of um internal battles there and then a lot of the politicians
they have land so they are not necessarily trying to protect um amazon they're trying to protect
their own interests so it's like this whole very complex deal i don't think i have an answer to that but i would say
it will can it be done sure will it be done it depends on how greedy the people in charge are
right um can i ask you a question um and you know feel free to not answer but you know we
this is no hold barred right so there So there's no, there's no filter.
That's what the show is.
Um, Bolsonaro, are you a fan?
Uh, no.
Okay.
I was going to, I was going to turn off the show right now.
Yeah, no, but I'm not also, I'm not a fan of the guy that is the current present either.
But all the MMA fighters love this guy.
Yeah.
Didn't he stay at like Jose Aldo's house or something?
Bolsonaro?
Yeah.
He still is.
How is that possible?
It's kind of like, you know, when things happen in the US, I feel Brazil reproduces, replicates
something somehow.
They did like an attack on the...
Trump was elected, which was kind of like more
a conservative
president. Then Brazil
elected Bolsonaro. Then Biden
was elected. And then Lula went back
to power. By the way, Lula,
he
was convicted in the past.
He went to jail for corruption
in his government.
Now he's back to being president because there were some mistakes during the process of the judgment.
The people in charge, they were not, let's say they were biased.
So then they completely erased everything that happened and basically like, oh, he's free.
He's an innocent man.
I don't think he was 100 innocent but then you can also make a case that hey the other person is not it's not a saint either so
this evil i was like i was saying brazil was you know was discovered in 1500s by you know
the portuguese and in and there's this whole history of like people just taking advantage of the people, of the land.
And it just never ends.
You know, so even here, I used to think way back in the day when I was a kid that corruption was a Brazil's problem.
But the older I get, you understand that it's everywhere.
Right.
Right.
And people keep voting for these you know the same families
and the same ones and yeah so i think like with amazon it's such a it's such a delicate subject
i don't think i'm an expert so i'll leave it to the experts before i'm canceled for not being an
expert but sure yeah the internet is filled with people who claim to be experts and aren't and
that's exactly what we're doing here is talking about a bunch of stuff that we're not experts in and pretending like we're experts.
Here's Nick the Dane.
By the way, my written answer was so much better than that.
I was way more eloquent.
Wait, did you actually write down the answer?
I did.
What do you do?
You did like hours of homework on this?
I am a person who likes to be prepared.
I told you like preparing yourself gives you,
preparing yourself.
Confidence.
Gives you confidence.
That's the irony.
Remember how nervous I was in the first,
you know,
my translation?
You mean last week?
Yes.
The funny thing about the name of the show,
Ariel and the Bad Girl,
is it feels like you are the antithesis of a bad girl.
Like you were actually more like a goody two shoes.
Is that fair to say?
I can be bad too.
Yeah.
It doesn't feel,
I mean,
you wrote very vicious.
I get my chihuahuas.
Yeah.
You wrote an answer about deforestation.
That was like eight minutes long.
I mean,
I don't want to sound dumb.
I knew it was like,
I knew that was a Luciana's question,
not Ariel.
Yeah.
You're going to be like, I knew that was a Luciana's question, not Ariel. You're going to
be like, yeah, what's up with that? Here's one that might be for me, a bit of a germaphobe here.
Nick the Dane says, as am I, I wash my hands before using the restroom, especially in public
or at work. Then again, afterwards, sometimes. That's really weird. If you're washing it before,
you got to be washing after
anyway am i the only one that sees the benefits in this tell me i'm not the only one that day
nick so i'll just say i'm an extreme germaphobe like i've never touched a bath a public bathroom
handle i i try to get the paper towel if not like i'll do my elbow you do it in airports
because everything in airplanes it's so dirty filthy okay great
question first of all never never use the water in the bathroom like never wash your hands in the
in the bathroom sink that water is dirty that water is contaminated airplane yes but you gotta
touch something isn't it more dirt no even paper towel touch it no you have to have purell you have to have purell
yeah but they don't have purell everywhere you have purell in your pocket absolutely i don't
leave home without it the mini one what is that movie from jack with jack nicholson uh as good
as it gets what i am he was like a super ocd germaphobe. That is me. Yes. I hate shaking people's hands.
I always try to go for the fist bump or the bow.
I'll never see you when I see you next time.
I'm not.
I just like the bow.
The bow to me is like the most respectful thing that you could do to someone.
Anyway, I will say, though, this guy actually has me beat.
I don't wash my hands before going to the bathroom.
That's a little weird.
But I definitely always wash my hands after.
You kind of should, right?
Yeah, actually, the more I think about it now,
I feel like I'm going to.
Oh gosh, you're creating a monster.
The pandemic has actually changed me.
If I, this is weird.
If I take a shower, for the worse,
if I take a shower and go outside,
even if it's like around the block in my house and air has hit me, by the time I go to bed, I have to take a shower again.
I shower like three times a day.
I shower a lot.
Yeah.
I feel like I sweat more.
Yeah?
Yeah.
I didn't know that was a thing.
I'm always like self-conscious i feel
like i need to shower everywhere like i i travel it doesn't matter if it was like a 45 minute i
shower before the flight i i go to vegas yeah i go to shop i shower you just can't right away right
right away but i'm also i'm very i guess like brushing my teeth is it's it's the thing for me
i i brush it you know before eating sometimes and then I brush it after eating.
Before?
Yeah.
Why before?
Like I wake up, I brush my teeth and then I eat my breakfast and I do it again.
Wow.
You know?
What's the point of doing it before?
Or like before going to dinner, I'm leaving.
I'm leaving to dinner.
I know I'm going to eat.
I'm going to brush my teeth.
Yeah, but you're in public.
You don't want to have bad breath. And I floss a lot. I'm terrified of people that know I'm gonna eat I'm gonna brush my teeth yeah but you're in public you don't want to have bad breath
and I floss a lot
I have
I'm terrified of people
that don't floss
right
you're terrified of them
yeah I
I can't
it's gross
now the more
I guess
that's a good part
of being in a relationship
because you know
the habits of the person
because when you're single
you don't really know
how clean people are
yeah
yeah
seeing and flirting
so ew what about tongue scraper
are you big into that i'm big into i use every i have like the the what is it called a water pick
oh wow yeah i have all sorts of things um well that is next level okay here's jason hey aria
ariel and luciana i travel a lot for work and i've been given the advice to quote do something
for yourself on every trip, end quote.
I've tried to eat a good local food, but curious what the both of you have done to treat yourself while traveling for work.
Any other tips?
Love the new concept and your openness to engage with your audience, Jason.
What about you?
You go to cool places?
Yeah, so funny.
I'm not big on shopping.
So the way and some people like spas and things like that. I get weird with people touching me.
People I don't know.
Really?
You don't like a good massage?
I just I'm weird.
Okay.
Like, yeah.
Plus, you get all greasy and stuff.
Yeah.
You have to take a shower.
No.
Yeah.
I'm okay with the shower.
It's just like touching.
Right. Anyways. you have to take a shower no yeah i'm okay with the shower it's just like touching right anyways um the thing for me i like going to cool bars and restaurants but not the touristy stuff i like
doing what the locals do so usually i do a good research i can read some blogs like places to go
like the hole in the wall and i like kind of like getting lost in a new city. Not, I mean, doing this safely.
I'm not crazy.
But yeah, wandering around streets, doing what the locals do,
going and finding like a cool farmer's market,
just sitting down pretending I'm local.
I have this weird thing that I kind of want to, in my mind,
I wonder like, do people think I'm from here?
Wow.
You really think that?
Like, I'm in Copenhagen, like Sweden, mind i wonder like do people think i'm from here wow you really think that like i mean copenhagen like sweden where everybody's like so tall and blonde and i'm like who do they think i'm local
obviously not right uh i like to go to coffee shops i don't drink coffee but yeah that that's
bizarre people get offended by it but i just never never had it. You don't drink at all? No. Never?
You've never tried coffee?
No, I tried coffee.
Okay.
I don't drink coffee.
Wow.
You know what?
If you ever do have kids, you will be a coffee drinker in some way, shape, or form.
I think it's kind of too late for me to start.
No.
I tried.
Wait, the kids part or the coffee part?
I was working for a company at some point and and everybody was drinking coffee so i tried
it hurt my stomach oh yeah it could be intense yeah i don't i don't need it how do you have
energy i don't know just wake up and move on my day i guess i don't have that much energy yeah no
listen if you don't need it it's probably better for you. I like to go to a coffee shop and I do like to go for like a run as opposed to the hotel
gym.
I like to go for a run so that kind of expedites you seeing around.
But honestly, I don't do much.
One thing that was really big for me was, especially early in my career, I refused to
drink when I was away on a work trip because I would see other people.
Behavior changing.
Yes. And I would lose respect and I would feel like they were unprofessional and then would
make a mistake. And like, I didn't want to lose sight of the goal. I'm here on a business trip,
work, focus, go home, and then you can do whatever you want. And so I was almost like
anal about not hanging out, not going out, not doing this, that.
Just do the work, eat something, go to bed.
I was kind of like that with the partying on the road.
I know like people sometimes, you know, staff, which is only natural.
You've been, imagine the people that travel every week and it's always the same.
So they go to dinners.
When we were younger, sometimes we would go to a club or things like that.
I never really liked staying up too late because I knew I had to work next day and then my face gets huge. But I do like getting a glass of wine, a glass of something, a nice dinner, go to bars.
I'm being more relaxed now than when I first started, which is funny.
Well, I mean, that comes with comfort and experience.
Here's David.
Salaam alaikum.
Wa alaikum salaam.
Question for both Ariel and Luciana.
That, by the way, is Arabic.
I don't know if you know that.
Salaam alaikum, yeah?
No.
Having worked so many events throughout the course of your careers, can you name a top
three places you visited, whether it be enjoying time in the respective cities or the arenas you have worked in?
Thanks, and hope to see this as a mainstay in the future. David from Dearborn, Michigan. Okay,
I'll go first, all right? Tokyo, Sydney, and you know what? Rio.
Rio. Rio's fun. I've never Rio's fun. I want to go.
You've never been to Tokyo.
Oh, Tokyo is maybe number one.
Never been to Asia.
Wow.
No, I know.
Right?
I'm missing out.
Okay.
Places, as in like countries.
My favorite is Italy because I feel like they have it all.
The wine, the people, the music people the music yeah and that wasn't for
that wasn't you have it all huh that wasn't for ufc no no yeah for myself oh yeah no it doesn't
have to be i was just trying to remember yeah um if i if i talk about arenas that's different
you know no cities oh cities okay i mean i was talking countries country cities
yeah um greece pretty cool uh i also got engaged there so i guess there's
which which uh which island santorini yeah um croatia for ufc was pretty fun even though we
went on during the winter, summer.
I remember going to this place.
It was called Bleach Lakes.
Very, very pretty.
One of the prettiest places I've ever been.
But arena, I have to say, New York is always fun.
I love that city so much.
MSG, working there, crazy.
Good. Historic. Yeah yeah great experience great experience i can i can always say
hey i've worked at msg before yeah were you there when trump was there i was diaz masvidal i was
working somewhere where trump uh showed up i don't remember if it was new york or if it was some uh
coldy uh no colby fight somewhere it was his son that or if it was some Colby fight somewhere.
Oh, it was his son that showed up to the Colby fight in Newark.
I think so.
Yeah, I think I was there.
And then I was also at a fight where Trump was actually there.
That was Masvidal Diaz at MSG.
Okay, then, yeah.
That was crazy time.
Okay, Adriano, Ariel and Luciana, so excited to see how this new segment goes.
I have a question regarding the anniversary of the MH370, the flight that went missing.
A new documentary series has come out.
Wondering your thoughts and if that caused you to have a fear of flying during that period.
The MH370 is the Malaysia Airlines flight that went missing in March of 2014.
Thank you to moderator Lewis.
You know,
I've got this guy,
moderator Lewis that gives me like some notes there.
You may have seen it.
He's,
he's Primo.
Do you know about this documentary?
I don't.
Okay.
So it's funny because I,
you probably watched it in the last two hours since this question came to you.
No.
So the funny thing is this documentary was actually on my,
my watch list,
but I got to finish the other one that I'm like, what's the other one? Like the wife, I forgot the name, but it's like the wife of this, this serial criminal in France that I'm watching. Forgot the name, damn it. Anyways. But then, because I saw the, the, the question, I was like, okay, let me check it out. Because I do remember when the plane went missing.
But I guess I just assumed that it crashed, right?
I don't remember of following it up.
And I don't know if I was traveling that much around that time of the year. But, yeah, anyway, so I watched one episode today.
There's three.
You watched the episode after you got the phone?
I got curious. I was like, oh, damn. Okay, the episode after you got the phone? I got curious.
I was like, oh, Dan.
Okay, this is now Ariel and the good girl.
So I didn't know that there were some interesting details.
For example, after the plane was already missing, so no communication at all,
the families were trying to call the phones of some of the passengers and they were ringing.
And then one of the passengers tried to call his daughter.
And then she was like, it's ringing, it's ringing.
And then I guess people were like, pick it up, pick it up.
By the time she tried to pick it up and then it just stopped ringing.
So weird, right?
Definitely some weird stuff.
That is horrible.
I've only seen one episode so far. let's see maybe i'll know i don't want to watch that stuff because it's going to make me
too nervous every time i fly i don't want to get all freaked out so we all have been there where
you're flying whether you're afraid of flying or not i don't think i am because if I was in so much trouble, I travel every month.
But we all have been there where there's like a little turbulence and you think, what if?
Is this it?
Yes.
Have I said all my goodbyes?
Like, am I okay?
Am I going to heaven?
Right.
Is there hell?
This just happened to me, by the way.
You know, I was coming home from Miami and I've never experienced this.
Like, let's say this is the runway.
This is the plane, right?
We couldn't have been closer to the floor, to the runway.
And then guess what happened?
As we're going here, then all of a sudden it starts to go back up.
And then we're like, what is going on?
And then they make this huge circle and they said there was another plane and they were too close.
That's fucked up so this is funny you
say that because this happened to me recently too where the plane was about to land and then
it diverted again and i was like what is this yes felt like i was in a roller coaster or something
you're like mentally ready for it to land and then all of a sudden uh it's scary i'm not very
afraid of flying but i guess i also try not to think about it. Usually when I'm there, I'm like, you know what?
If I go down, I guess I just had a good life.
I just hope it's not.
No, no.
You never know.
I say that because I never faced, you know, knock on the wood, I never faced a really
bad turbulence.
I also think you attract what you fear the most.
Like my dad was so afraid of flying and I can you nod
the few flights he took, there was always some sort of bad turbulence, like face masks falling.
I never experienced anything like that. So, you know, that way.
Yes. None of this crazy stuff. Okay. Last one, truck walker uh i know what that is in reference to
shout out i don't think luciana is aware of uh are you familiar with pf chang's the the chinese uh
but are you familiar with the culture the people well i'll teach you about pf chang's
um i've been there once by the way no it's not the actual pf chang's it's a whole other world
chains uh food chains here in
the west i tried chick-fil-a one time when i was working for that company i mentioned before in
texas i tried once because people in the office they were so shocked that i never had chick-fil-a
so i was like okay they're good let's just get it for lunch and wasn't that impressive? Yeah, it was.
Anyway, I work night shifts at a great job that I love.
It's very rewarding work and it pays well.
I loved working shifts because of the freedom I had during the week to pursue hobbies and run errands while everybody else is at work.
But five years ago, my wife and I had a son and then another.
They are now five and two.
And as they grow older, I feel that I'm missing out on important time with them. I make the best of time at home, but the guilt is really starting to get to me. Fortunately,
my wife works normal hours and is home with them when I'm away. I have the opportunity to switch
to a role doing the same job, but it is straight days. However, it would come with a substantial
pay cut. This pay cut might affect family vacations, enrolling them in camps, saving for
college, etc. I'm torn.
Do I tough out the shifts for a few more years and make the best of the home time I have,
or do I take the pay cut and spend more time at home? Golly, this is a tough one.
This is a real tough one. Wow, what a predicament. I have to say,
yeah, I have horrible guilt, horrible, horrible guilt. And part of the reason why I don't travel to a lot of events now, people think it's for other reasons. The main thing is I don't want to
leave my family. I don't want to leave my kids. I don't want to miss soccer on the weekend.
I feel so bad when I leave. And so I try to make the trips very important. Like if it's
completely necessary, then I go. If it's a big event, a big trip, whatever. But I mean,
this man is speaking to my heart because I've made a lot
of decisions, especially since leaving ESPN, based on do I have to leave or not? Do I have
to travel or not? I've said no to things based on if they want me to travel or not.
I would say providing for your family is huge. And if the job is better, you know, that's a tough
one. And the pay is better, that's a tough one. But I will also say, especially when they're five and two, I have a six-year-old, an eight-year-old, and a 10-year-old
right now, you don't get that time back, right? There's that period that you don't get back and
they're so innocent. Like my daughter is so innocent. Yesterday, I had to stay at work till
nine o'clock p.m. and she kept calling and texting me and sending me voice notes like,
Daddy, where are you? Where are you? And there's going to come a time where they're not going to care. They're not going to,
they're going to be doing something else. They're going to be living somewhere else.
So, this is tough. I don't know. I really don't know because you want to provide,
you want to make the money, you want to be there, but you also want to physically be there and enjoy
these bedtimes and dinnertimes and you don't get those moments back. So I don't know, man. By the way,
shout out to his wife, if she's saying that it's okay for him to do it, that's huge as well. Like,
a lot of wives, I think, would say, I want you home. Don't you know what I mean? Giving that
guilt. It's such a tough situation. I obviously have no kids. So it's hard for me to relate. But
I do understand the struggle, because i feel like my parents went through it
a little bit and most families do where you know okay do i take a pay cut so i can spend this time
you know my family but then the financial stress kind of affects my relationship with my kids and
my my wife so right i do in a perfect scenario you you would find a job maybe at another company at a similar role where you can get similar pay.
Who knows? I feel it has to be a family decision, though.
You know, speak with your wife, see what you what she thinks, because, you know, they I'm kind of with you because.
Let's say you make a lot of money and then down the road you're in a you know comfortable
situation you can buy those moments back you know and for kids i would think that you know having
although i'll say he he did say he makes he he makes the best of his time when he's at home so
i guess you know yeah family decision how would i would talk to my partner and see, I don't think I could do that job.
Honestly,
thinking about it because like,
if you're doing the night shift,
that means you're,
you're tired.
Yeah.
You're tired.
You're,
you're,
so yes,
hours.
You're never seeing them unless it's the weekend.
Yeah.
Tough one,
but hopefully,
hopefully it's too bad that he didn't share,
uh,
the position,
you know,
maybe someone watching would be able to help him out.
Yes. Okay. Well, tell us what it is next time.
Next time, you guys. Yeah.
Wow. What a pro you are, Luciana, because that is the perfect way to end. You're giving them
the tease for next time. Wow.
You said questions.
Yes. Did you enjoy this?
They're not the Amazon questions.
Yes. Nothing too complex. I can't speak for her, but I'm not that smart. So it's just about sports and stuff.
For me, that's the excuse. It's like English as a second language.
That's true.
So people don't think, oh, she's that dumb, huh?
Right. But did you enjoy this?
Of course.
Okay. All right. All right. Are we sticking with the name? What are we doing with the name?
I think we should ask people to vote.
