00:07
Get down. I'm kidding.
00:11
I'm kidding. Welcome back to We Can by Alejandro and I'm
00:15
Jenny. Yo, I'm sorry,
00:17
man. It was a wild weekend.
00:20
man? Well, I was in Palm Springs,
00:23
you know, just minding my business taking shots.
00:25
Then I realized Trump got shot.
00:30
Yeah. Oh, it's crazy,
00:34
man. So there's that and then pinche the whole copa America
00:39
But then all the drama surrounding it too,
00:41
the mayhem, we're going to get into that.
00:43
I was at this event this weekend and someone came up and
00:48
And he's like, we're sister and I was like,
00:51
she's in Palm Springs,
00:52
bro. Yeah. And then I'm like,
00:56
you know, are you siblings?
01:01
we're not siblings but we're pretty much.
01:03
Yeah, it was funny dude.
01:04
So next time you know,
01:05
I'm going to have to take you with me.
01:07
I wanted to go but I'm a little trip booked.
01:11
But anyways, you know,
01:12
we can keep chatting it up.
01:13
There's a lot of stuff to cover a lot of fun stuff
01:15
A lot of crazy stuff.
01:16
So let's get into it.
01:21
Dude, Saturday was so crazy.
01:23
Like it was definitely a historic day to say the least.
01:26
So what we do actually know is that former President Trump survived
01:29
What seems like an assassination attempt and was shot by 20
01:31
year old Thomas. Crooks,
01:33
crooks had no criminal record graduated in 2022 and was registered as
01:37
a Republican. And the FBI is still looking into his motive
01:40
He fired eight rounds with a rifle 200 yards from the
01:44
roof of a building before getting killed by secret service.
01:47
Damn. Like how could they not have seen him though?
01:51
And sadly, Corey comparator,
01:53
a father and a firefighter was killed by the shooter and two
01:56
other attendees were also shot but are in stable condition.
01:59
That's so awful. But like that photo of like Trump,
02:02
dude, they're already making T shirts.
02:05
I'm not surprised like they was like,
02:09
he got shot. I heard him yelling out for his shoes
02:12
and he wants to get that fist in there and then they
02:14
carried him out. I don't know,
02:16
they just said more crazy to the mix,
02:18
right? So he's kind of mixed up in this whole thing
02:22
So, you know his song,
02:23
many men about, you know,
02:25
being a survivor from being assassinated.
02:29
It's a classic. So that song is going super viral with
02:32
this whole thing. And apparently 50 even had a concert and
02:36
he comes up on stage and guess who's behind him?
02:40
I know he's like moon moon and I did see that meme
02:46
it was all over social media and I honestly,
02:51
I love 50. I'm going out like,
02:55
streaming, went up that Spotify show going to be nice.
02:58
I just feel like this race got a whole lot nastier and
03:02
I mean, I hope things cool down.
03:04
it's definitely leveled it up because again,
03:06
like you said, it's been a lot of back and forth
03:08
you know, it's been a shouting match,
03:11
but this is now actually physically,
03:13
people getting hurt. So it's a whole another level of this
03:17
I got to hope that everything kind of simmers down,
03:20
everyone stays safe and you know what?
03:21
It's crazy because I thought maybe one of these wouldn't make it
03:23
to election day, but not because of this,
03:26
but because of old age,
03:29
this is just, oh my God,
03:34
the Copa America final erupted into chaos yesterday at Hard Rock Stadium
03:40
in Miami. Congrats to Argentina for their win and sorry to
03:46
our Colombian mommy Daniela.
03:48
But last night was crazy.
03:51
Did you see that dude?
03:53
Yes. So fans rushed and broke the gates without scanning tickets
03:56
or going through security and many people who had bought tickets were
03:59
left outside of the stadium after paying thousands of dollars.
04:04
I'm pretty sure I saw people going through the events.
04:06
Like, how do you know where that even goes?
04:09
Dude, I'd be scared to like to go and,
04:12
you know, the fact I don't want to be chopped into
04:16
little pieces. It's like maybe someone got the blueprints,
04:19
but I don't think so.
04:19
There's YOLO wing it and they're just like a PAA,
04:22
the match was delayed for more than an hour while security and
04:26
police attempted to figure it out.
04:30
many ticket buyers were left out and the stadium was packed even
04:36
our very own Daniela,
04:37
she went to the game and she even sent us videos of
04:43
what was going on of the people outside and just waiting there
04:48
like sardines, just like minions of the yellow.
04:54
It was crazy. It was so dangerous and she even told
04:59
us she had a ticket but they didn't even scan it,
05:02
they didn't scan it.
05:03
She said that they didn't scan her ticket.
05:06
Yeah, I didn't read the group chat.
05:08
Yeah. No, she said they didn't even scan her ticket
05:10
and then she almost got trampled over.
05:13
Yeah, I saw that but luckily she got in safely.
05:15
Speaking of getting trampled,
05:16
some people did get medical treatment because they were either passing out
05:20
or getting injured and also there's more reports of property damage.
05:24
Did you see the escalator thing?
05:27
That was, how do you,
05:32
how do you leave your shoe behind?
05:34
You know the big question,
05:35
what everyone's talking about right now is the US ready to host
05:42
But whose fault do you think it was at the end of
05:44
the day? It's like a little bit of both.
05:46
security should have been beefed up and kind of been more like
05:56
It's like again, if you don't have a ticket,
05:58
you don't get in a Marando going through the events like,
06:02
yeah, it's like this is why we can have nice things
06:06
This is true because again,
06:07
I don't think they do this at NFL games,
06:10
but again, with the soccer and football,
06:12
it just pass no pianos and I think this needs to be
06:17
a lesson to, they have two years,
06:20
two years to get whoever's fault it was,
06:24
you've got to get your shit straight.
06:28
So FIFA beef up on security,
06:30
organize your events a little better because you know,
06:33
fans that paid money,
06:35
you know, harder in cash to watch your teams play like
06:40
they want to get in safely so there could have been debs
06:45
there could have been debts but thankfully,
06:48
you know, everyone was ok.
06:54
Shohei Otani has been with the Dodgers since signing the biggest contract
06:58
in sports history. Yes,
07:01
sir in December, but has yet to make a new home
07:06
for himself in Los Angeles.
07:08
It's crazy dude. So in May So,
07:11
hi, Otani. He's a DH hitter and a pitcher,
07:14
bought a luxury mansion in LA CTA Flint Ridge right up the
07:17
street and he bought it for $7.85 million but it was
07:22
revealed recently that Otani has decided to sell the property without even
07:26
actually moving in. So imagine that you buy a house for
07:29
$7.85 million and you don't move in?
07:33
Damn. What about a strikeout?
07:34
Talk about a strike a little.
07:42
Well, do you know why?
07:43
Word is that? Otani grew angry after two Japanese outlets crossed
07:49
the line in revealing the address of the house and sending reporters
07:54
outside the front of the home to take pictures,
07:56
film and interview neighbors.
07:59
D first I can imagine Otani getting mad.
08:02
I've never seen him upset.
08:04
He's very cool and collected.
08:06
So I mean, just for him to be upset at this
08:08
thing being leaked and you never have to move in.
08:12
yeah, dude, you'd be upset too.
08:13
I'd be furious and I my personality,
08:16
I like it takes a lot for me to get mad like
08:18
I'm a calm collective person and,
08:21
but when you get me mad,
08:24
dude. Imagine being the richest guy in baseball and you can't
08:27
buy your privacy. Everyone knows everything about you.
08:31
Yeah. Well, there's something for you unfortunately can't buy.
08:34
Yeah, but you know what show Hey,
08:35
we're actually in L A and we have an extra bedroom
08:37
So if you want to crash with us,
08:39
my boy, I won't charge you rent or maybe I will
08:41
I mean, I will for groceries and we're good.
08:45
So yeah, let me know.
08:50
Kicking it with me today is actress Chelsea Rendon.
08:59
Mere Chelsea. I know we talked about it before the show
09:06
So it's rough. I'm going to say this with as much
09:10
respect but like guys,
09:12
y'all damn lame a couple of weeks ago,
09:16
it's like single summer trying to be out there.
09:18
I'm also like a serial monogamist and I like relationships.
09:21
So I was trying to like,
09:23
Let me just date and like be chill.
09:26
I had three dates flake on me within like 2.5 weeks really
09:32
And they were like dates,
09:33
hangouts, not like even an official or anything but like it
09:35
was just like, let's go have a drink like,
09:37
yeah, cool meet at my place and walk to the bar
09:39
nearby all like last minute.
09:43
I'm going back in the house,
09:44
I'm going back in the house because it's like this is it
09:46
show up bare minimum,
09:48
just show up. It's not that hard.
09:52
I agree. I'm with you.
09:52
I had a better weekend and that's all I'm gonna say about
09:57
Details. I had a better weekend,
10:00
dude. I, that's the thing too with dating.
10:02
I don't judge when other girls do this because do you book
10:05
whatever makes you happy?
10:06
But on me II I can't hook up like hook up culture
10:11
Like, because you also de la seno Morada.
10:13
Like if something happens I love you now.
10:19
that's real. And again,
10:20
I'm a hopeless romantic.
10:21
So like, it's funny because in my early twenties I hooked
10:24
up and it was no big deal but like,
10:26
I got single like six months ago and like had my first
10:29
hook up and it was awkward.
10:31
But then it was like,
10:33
am I able to do this casually or not?
10:37
it's hard right now for a serious question.
10:41
Is somebody gonna match my free?
10:44
So Chelsea, what's your free?
10:47
And the funny thing is naturally you think dirty stuff,
10:49
right? But I think it's more along the terms of match
10:52
my energy because of the song.
10:54
It's like, you know what I mean?
10:57
it's match the energy.
10:58
Like again, like I had to grow up very quickly,
11:01
like acting at five.
11:02
Like I had to be mature for my age and all that
11:05
naturally I'm a kid inside.
11:07
So like, I'm very silly and playful and joking around and
11:09
just being like dumb,
11:11
I'm not gonna slash your tires crazy.
11:13
You know what I mean?
11:14
I'm not that type of chick but I'm the crazy.
11:16
That's like let's go over here at two o'clock in the morning
11:19
and just see what happens.
11:20
Spontaneous. No, I get you too.
11:22
And what's your, no,
11:24
what the like, silliness?
11:26
Like I, I can't be with someone that's super,
11:28
super serious that like if I'm being silly being myself,
11:32
hey, tone it down like like don't act like that like
11:35
no, I don know mother fuckers have told me like,
11:38
well, yeah, sometimes you can be too immature.
11:40
I am joking. I am played now when shit needs to
11:44
get done I step the fuck up and I do what I
11:45
gotta do. But if I'm at home,
11:47
I'm gonna be like come home,
11:53
So I know you're a tia too.
11:55
You're a millennial tia.
11:56
I'm a millennial tia.
11:58
So what would you say are the perks of being like a
12:02
cool tia? So I technically helped raise my niece at 15
12:05
So I feel like I was a parent from 15 to
12:07
25 and then that's when I moved out.
12:10
I gotta be on my own in my life and stop being
12:13
a dad. But so like for me it's be like again
12:18
being able to play with the little baby.
12:21
Oh Wait, it's crying.
12:22
Here you go. Oh Wait and poop.
12:24
Here you go or like,
12:26
now you're being a little dumb now.
12:27
Go away. You know what I mean?
12:29
that's the perks. Like,
12:30
truthfully I actually don't want kids.
12:32
the randomest or like the only Latina that does not want kids
12:36
I already did. They're like sick coming into my bed or
12:40
the late night this and the taking to school and the homework
12:43
Like, so I had that experience.
12:45
So I'm like, I don't want no kids and like,
12:47
especially people are like,
12:48
wait, what? You don't want kids,
12:50
leave them up. And I'm like,
12:53
love my career. I wanna be able to go and do
12:56
whatever I want, be working 10 months out of the year
12:58
and not feel guilty about it.
13:00
So like when you go out with guys,
13:02
like, do you tell them like,
13:02
straightforward? Like, look,
13:03
I'm being straightforward. I don't want kids.
13:07
Not necessarily, no,
13:09
but I think it's something that you bring up at the beginning
13:12
Like I know in my last relationship,
13:14
like within like a few weeks,
13:16
it was like when we were first just talking,
13:19
I don't, I want kids in Fy.
13:20
I, I'm never moving out of where I live.
13:22
So you're gonna have to move to me.
13:25
this is where I live for work for everything.
13:27
So, well, mind you also,
13:29
I'm open to the fact that that could change like you,
13:33
but I just felt so much power in making the decision that
13:36
I had a choice about or I hate,
13:38
I hate when they're like,
13:39
oh well, who's gonna take care of you when you're older
13:42
It's like like bitch like that's not me.
13:45
I'm gonna take like don't put that on your kids,
13:47
you know, don't put it on them but they also like
13:50
I'm gonna be balling that I can hire people to take
13:56
I'm gonna take care of myself.
13:58
well, thank you so much,
13:59
Chelsea. This is fun.
14:02
And where can we tune in and keep,
14:04
you know, keep up with you online.
14:05
I'm a basic bitch and my handles are literally just at Chelsea
14:09
Rendon on Instagram and Twitter.
14:11
I did a short like two months ago.
14:13
I'm doing another short next week actually.
14:15
And then I'm producing a short,
14:16
so I'm like, excited to at least be doing something.
14:19
I'm trying to like get a producer hat,
14:21
like talking to some people right now about producing a feature and
14:26
we were talented. We're cooking,
14:28
we're cooking. Even if things are slow,
14:30
we cooking, it's all good.
14:33
It's going to get busy.
14:34
But thank you so much,
14:35
Chelsea. Hey, brother,
14:42
did you know that every house in Miami is going to be
14:45
an oceanfront property soon because they're like,
14:48
they're on the beach.
14:49
Like, what do you mean?
14:49
Well, it's from the effect of global warming out there.
14:53
So today we have floodlight news reporter and Miami resident Mario Ariza
15:00
to explain Miami's state of unreality when it comes to climate change
15:08
Mario, how's it going?
15:10
Jenny. Hi, Alejandro.
15:12
Nice. Thanks for having me on.
15:13
So, Jenny's telling me that Miami might be completely all oceanfront
15:18
properties. Can you break down what's happening over there and what's
15:21
going on with the climate change and flooding in Miami?
15:24
I'll start by making it really personal,
15:26
right? I moved to Miami in 1993 from the Dominican Republic
15:31
And when I came here,
15:34
the ocean was six inches lower than it is today,
15:40
That means in, in my lifetime here in Miami,
15:43
the ocean has risen six inches and it is expected
15:49
to keep rising and to accelerate in its rate of rise to
15:53
the point where by the time I'm set to retire,
15:59
There may be an extra 3 to 4 ft of water
16:03
sloshing around in the streets of Miami.
16:05
And by the end of the century,
16:06
Miami is expected to see possibly even 6 ft of sea level
16:11
rise. That's bad for a place like Miami because Miami's geology
16:16
is a little special,
16:17
right? Not only do we have our special Cafecito here,
16:20
but we have a special kind of limestone here.
16:25
the water comes up from below us.
16:29
now we've got the water coming up from the ocean
16:31
We've got the water coming up from below us right from
16:33
the ground. We've also got the water coming down from the
16:36
sky. We've got coming from all sides and it's coming in
16:39
different ways now because of a phenomenon known as anthropogenic climate change
16:44
That's a big boy words for,
16:47
basically humans polluting the atmosphere and trapping more heat or
16:52
making the rain more intense.
16:54
We're making the ocean higher and for a place like Miami.
16:59
Well, that means it's not going to be a lot of
17:00
fun d and what are local policymakers doing or not doing to
17:06
combat the effects of global warming?
17:08
That's a great question.
17:09
Listen, the people in charge have put a lot of money
17:12
into trying to keep things dry here in Miami.
17:17
We've built some pumps,
17:18
we've raised some roads,
17:19
we've installed these valves in the storm water system that the water
17:23
won't come in, it just goes out and that's buying us
17:26
some time though at a cost of,
17:28
of a lot of money and,
17:29
and this sort of adaptation is going on.
17:32
and people are adapting to it.
17:35
But one of the main issues is that the driver of this
17:40
change in the climate of this rise in sea levels is carbon
17:44
emissions, right? Every time you turn your car on,
17:46
that's CO2 into the atmosphere though you're not the one doing most
17:49
of it. Most of it is coming from power plants
17:52
and from our aggregate transportation system,
17:55
burning fossil fuels. And what isn't happening is that we're not
17:59
replacing fossil fuels with other forms of energy that don't make the
18:04
planet warmer. And we hear that some lawmakers could,
18:07
you know, propose building a sea wall flooding.
18:09
Do you think that would even be a good solution or a
18:12
viable one? If I understand you correctly,
18:15
you may be talking about the multi billion dollar proposal by the
18:18
US Army Corps of Engineers to establish a wall partially in the
18:24
sea, partially on land to save Miami from storm surge.
18:28
Because one of the big issues here is that when a storm
18:31
if a big hurricane hit,
18:33
a wall of water could come into the belly of the city
18:37
just kind of tear it out.
18:38
That's a plan that would make one of the shocks,
18:41
the big hurricane, not as bad,
18:44
but it would do nothing to fix the stressors,
18:48
right? The rain bombs and the sunny day flooding.
18:52
Well, thank you so much for joining us,
18:54
Mara. We really appreciate it.
18:56
And where can people find you?
18:58
Where can people follow you?
18:59
Yeah, great question.
19:00
So you can follow me on Twitter at Mario Ariza Baez A

19:29
Appreciate your time. Thank you so much folks for the work
19:31

19:33
Bye. Ok. We are here with Busca Boa,
19:42
a husband and wife duo nominated for the song of the summer
19:46
with their track 1111.
19:49
But before we get into talking about the song,
19:51
how did you guys pick your name?
19:53
Los Cabo is a Puerto Rican street slang.
19:57
It's kind of like your troublemaker rouser,
20:02
you know, you're looking for trouble but it's got like a
20:05
Because Boa also in a lot of places in Latin America,
20:07
he's like a ruckus like a noise,
20:09
you know, so you could be either looking for trouble or
20:14
And what inspired it to be your name?
20:17
I mean, I think I'm kind of a Busca is definitely
20:21
I don't know about that.
20:28
it's got a lot of truth and you guys are like couple
20:30
goals. This is awesome.
20:32
I wish I could find someone and do something together with them
20:36
Like, how did you guys meet.
20:37
Yeah, we met at a party like a Thanksgiving Day party
20:42
we were both born and raise in Puerto Rico,
20:44
but we both moved separately without knowing each other to New York
20:48
every Puerto Rican somehow finds each other.
20:51
You know. So we were at a party there,
20:54
I think Raquel was sort of,
20:55
she had a band with her friends and famously,
20:58
she was like, you know,
20:58
trying to do this cover of bad romance in Spanish lady.
21:03
Gaga, bad romance in Spanish.
21:05
And,, but they didn't have this one chord,
21:08
you know, and I knew that one chord.
21:11
I got this, he slipped in and he was like,
21:14
Yeah, I know that one chord and I played it and
21:18
the rest is history.
21:21
And now we have the nominated song of the summer.
21:23
Everybody. Let's go.
21:28
you guys are husband and wife.
21:29
Kind of technically not really because we are,
21:32
we were never married by the church or any government,
21:35
but we've been together,
21:37
we've been together for like,
21:38
13 years. So at this point I guess we are,
21:41
you know, we kind of laugh at it every time we
21:46
read it but it's everywhere but it's cool.
21:48
I'll take it, you know.
21:50
Yeah. And then how is it like working together,
21:52
you know, being on tour together?
21:54
How's that? You know,
21:55
as a couple. It's hard,
21:59
it's hard to do everything together.
22:02
So, what we do is we just take a lot of
22:05
otherwise we go crazy.
22:06
It's just too much stuff,
22:08
you know, who's a very creative person.
22:13
you know, intensity and,
22:17
so I think like if we were constantly in a sort of
22:22
it can get to a place of tension,
22:24
you know what I mean?
22:25
Like, especially we do parenting together.
22:29
a day to day things together.
22:31
we tour, it's just so much stuff,
22:33
you know. But but we,
22:35
we want to make it work and we're here,
22:36
you know, like doing our very best and,
22:38
and I think it's cool because people respond,
22:40
you know, like we also on your collab with bad bunny
22:44
like, how did the bad bunny collab?
22:47
Like, come about his producer,
22:49
hit us up on Instagram.
22:50
He slid into the D MS,
22:52
he slid into the D MS on Easter Sunday.
22:55
Bad bunny. Easter Sunday.
22:58
I'll never forget the bunny.
23:00
Yeah, the bunny came on Easter Sunday and he like,
23:03
literally like the producers like,
23:05

23:08

23:12

23:16

23:18
like, when you got to hit them back up,
23:22
OK, so what do you want us to do on this
23:25
track? And the producer is going to send us some notes
23:27
and he's like, can we just call you on facetime and
23:29
like when we can answer,
23:32
you know, when we answer,
23:33
it's basically Benito and we're in our pajamas.
23:36
No way. He was on there.
23:37
He looked like a fucking rock star with his cool hat,
23:40
his hot earrings and shit.
23:44
We were in our pajamas with holes and stains on,
23:47
hey Benito, we're about to go to bed and we were
23:49
like, and so we had,
23:51
we talked to him for like,
23:52
I don't know, like an hour and then after that two
23:55
weeks later, Andrea was done.
23:58

24:00

24:09

24:12

24:18
