Hey guys, welcome back to Meet through Daily as well.
00:11
I was like, should we see it?
00:12
No, I was like,
00:13
dude, I forgot Seu Von and I was like,
00:16
what the heck, what's the show's name?
00:17
It's still new. It's still new,
00:19
you know. But welcome back guys.
00:22
We have a great show for you guys today.
00:24
I mean, introduce yourself.
00:25
Oh, I'm Jenny Alejandro.
00:27
And let's get into it,
00:28
brother. Let's not the app in a way.
00:31
Turns out brother, the secret to not aging is getting drunk
00:35
in another country. Wait,
00:36
what? Like you're joking?
00:37
Well, a new study shows that traveling helps people live longer
00:42
Are you? Sure?
00:43
Yeah. Yeah, brother.
00:44
It's great for your brain.
00:45
So this is a science behind it.
00:47
It's great for your brain.
00:48
Traveling can improve cognitive function,
00:51
reduce stress and boost overall well being,
00:55
especially in old people.
00:56
Why do you, why did you look at me when you
00:58
said that you're not old?
00:59
I didn't look at you.
01:00
I don't know the way you kind of said it after shit
01:05
That makes sense.
01:06
Plus, plus it's good for a rocking bod.
01:10
I mean, think hiking trails like when you travel,
01:13
you walk a lot,
01:14
right? You go to,
01:14
like, when you went to Orlando Disney World,
01:17
you walked around a lot.
01:20
You walk to new cities,
01:22
all that good stuff.
01:23
Plus, you know,
01:24
when people travel, everyone is going heels to Jesus,
01:28
what do you mean?
01:29
Two person push ups,
01:30
brother. I'm confused.
01:31
Parallel porky, porky sausage,
01:35
hockey. Ok. I got,
01:37
I got the boots.
01:39
Ok. Come on,
01:45
brother, I got you.
01:50
Oh, anyways, it's proven that those who travel feel well
01:56
they feel more connected and socially engaged,
01:59
more liberated. Yeah.
02:00
Which is crucial for our mental health as we age.
02:04
I'm just saying, you know,
02:05
so I, I get it because when that happen I'm like
02:10
and the next day a whole different vibe,
02:14
the vacation, just especially on vacation.
02:16
It's like, oh my God,
02:17
everything is so nice,
02:18
you know.,
02:20
but yeah, so travel guys,
02:21
it's good for your health.
02:24
Mexico just canceled us corn.
02:27
Well, you know GMO S right?
02:29
Genetically modified organisms. Oh,
02:32
I thought it, I thought it was genetically modified organics,
02:36
organisms, organisms, dear God.
02:39
Yeah. So it's genetically built into all of our foods,
02:42
increase output and reduce costs.
02:44
Many worry about the impact on food,
02:46
local producers and the health of our big bags.
02:48
Ah, ok. I see that.
02:50
So in 2020 Mexico's President Lopez Obrador signed a decree banning GMO
02:56
corn and glyphosphate for use in food by 2024 per Mexico
03:02
Heavy relies on corn from the US import.
03:04
So the ban has been delayed and modified now it's mostly affecting
03:08
corn use for human food,
03:10
not corn for animal feed or industrial use.
03:12
This is a lot to digest.
03:16
You know, corn is very hard to digest.
03:18
Yeah. But when you poop it,
03:19
it still comes out and you poop.
03:20
Right. Yeah. Yeah.
03:21
Yeah. But this is good for Mexican farmers who can start
03:24
making money, which is,
03:25
which is nice. Yeah,
03:27
I mean, it's kind of like,
03:28
you know, hey,
03:30
you guys like not following the rules.
03:32
We're gonna use our own corn.
03:33
So I bet the corn is better over there anyways.
03:37
Yeah, because mass organic,
03:38
right? Without it.
03:39
But yeah, the US continuing its fight against Mexico proposed ban
03:43
which could significantly impact American corn exports.
03:46
And Uncle Sam argues that Mexico's stance lacks scientific evidence pointing out
03:50
that GMO corn has been deemed safe for consumption.
03:53
I don't know. I mean,
03:55
the genetically modified organisms,
03:59
I wouldn't want that in my body just saying,
04:03
but just because it's safe,
04:04
doesn't mean it's healthy for you.
04:05
Right, brother. I mean,
04:07
yeah, I think it's kind of like diet coke,
04:09
you know, and it was just a bad comparison but,
04:11
you know, some stuff is ok or too much of something
04:14
is bad per Merida.
04:16
Maybe that's ok. I don't know.
04:18
But, yeah, I mean,
04:18
the beef continues and you will hopefully be figured out later this
04:21
year. Well, it seems like they have a lot of
04:23
problems to figure out.
04:27
Ok. Ok. You're having too much trouble with this.
04:29
I'm serious. Oh,
04:31
that was cheesy coy.
04:34
Get out of here.
04:35
Get out of here.
04:36
We're done. Ok.
04:39
Fine. All right.
04:40
Next brother did you know I met Keanu Reeves.
04:43
Yeah. Back when I used to work as a background actor
04:45
and I went to the costumes for Cops in movies.
04:48
I had to drop off some uniforms at this set and I
04:53
was in my Jeep and my yellow Jeep.
04:54
Remember my Yeller Jeep?
04:56
And I saw this man in a motorcycle right behind me and
05:00
he actually passed by me.
05:02
He went to the front kind of cut me off a little
05:04
bit. And because yeah,
05:06
I mean, I was small and he gets off the motorcycle
05:10
right in front of me.
05:11
I'm like this freaking guy and then he takes off his helmet
05:15
Guess who it was?
05:16
Well, Keanu Reeves because I'm telling you the story when I
05:18
met him. But yeah,
05:20
and he was just like this looking all lost.
05:24
John wick like, yeah,
05:25
and I knew it was part of the production that I was
05:27
dropping the costumes off.
05:28
I knew where to go.
05:29
So I popped my head.
05:30
I'm like Mr Reeves.
05:32
Mr Reeves. I don't know if I just say Keanu and
05:35
I was like, oh,
05:36
are you lost? He's like,
05:37
yeah, I am like,
05:38
you wanna follow me.
05:39
I know where the set is he followed me.
05:42
It was cool. It was really cool.
05:44
But anyway, the reason the reason why I bring this up
05:47
is because we need Keanu Reeves.
05:50
Why? Because brother last night in L A Speed,
05:54
the movie happened in real life.
05:56
You remember speed with the bus.
05:59
So basically some lunatic stole a city bus and started speeding all
06:03
around the city like in GT A like he stole a got
06:06
the stars. He thought police had to use those little spike
06:09
strip things to like stop the bus then flash bang the bus
06:13
and throw the guy into custody.
06:15
Was that the bang into the bus of the bus survived.
06:20
But a passenger on the bus sadly passed away.
06:23
It was, it was,
06:24
yeah, it was really sad.
06:25
You had to open fire and just from gunshot wounds.
06:28
Yes, because just d damn,
06:30
that's crazy dude. But maybe I should see the movie because
06:33
this is wild and now I want,
06:35
I wanna compare because people be freaking doing crazy stuff especially nowadays
06:40
like you just never know,
06:41
turn on the news and some pursuit gt a story crazy.
06:48
It ain't safe out there sister.
06:50
Have you ever seen these videos of parties now?
06:52
And you're like, damn,
06:53
that's a party. Honestly.
06:55
The whole party scene is fucked up like they aren't even have
06:59
parties nowadays. Yeah,
07:00
they fell off. Well,
07:01
people don't dance anymore like what's up with that,
07:03
you know, and,
07:04
and they just stand around drunk on their phones,
07:06
making tiktoks or those guys that are like,
07:09
oh, you know,
07:10
they ain't ready for us.
07:12
They're just like in the back like this just looking around and
07:17
it's like, what do you mean?
07:18
We ain't ready for?
07:19
You just standing around and see what you want about millennials.
07:21
But one thing we know is how to throw a party like
07:26
de Madre, not a phone inside unless you know,
07:28
just a little quick selfie with the homies because that's,
07:31
but that's it. You're in the moment.
07:33
But the good thing is here to help remind us of how
07:38
we used to get down is actress and comedian Jasmine Ruiz.
07:43
Thank you for having me.
07:44
Of course. So let's go straight to the chase.
07:47
What is wrong with Gen Z?
07:49
I want Jazzy to eat me up.
07:51
So I would say what is different,
07:53
what is different with Gen Z?
07:55
I think that they connect in a different way.
07:58
Millennials we grew up and we didn't have technology and then at
08:02
some point we got it those early years,
08:05
we were connecting with each other.
08:07
There was no connection over the internet.
08:09
I feel like the yen too because of social media.
08:12
And maybe Gen Z is a little worried about how they might
08:14
look. They're a lot more self conscious than we are.
08:17
We were confident, you know,
08:19
in our little Elf makeup or we makeup that was like $3
08:24
or from the dollar store.
08:26
We were confident. We're like,
08:27
that's it. We that girl,
08:28
we look good and we didn't care,
08:30
stay facing on the dance floor and we were sweating bullets.
08:34
I think that's because we didn't grow up with social media like
08:38
that. This is so true.
08:39
And we actually did see that video of you reminiscing about the
08:43
old partying days. So you're like,
08:47
oh, ok. And then he needs support too because now
08:49
you're throwing it back.
08:51
What do you think parties now are missing?
08:54
Like what do you think?
08:55
Like they're like, oh they're missing this key element that we
08:58
used to have. I think we're missing people living in the
09:01
moment like we don't have to capture it.
09:03
It doesn't have to be on the phone like we could leave
09:05
the phone, you know,
09:06
on silent. Also,
09:08
music is different these days,
09:09
you know, put on some throwbacks,
09:11
put on some throwbacks,
09:12
bring it back, bring it back.
09:13
I gotta know why aren't people dancing like before?
09:16
Like what happened to the art of grinding,
09:18
you know? Yeah.
09:20
Where did we veer off course first people are scared.
09:23
I think men are scared.
09:24
Men are scared to approach women.
09:26
And I think this is like across all age categories.
09:29
Like I can't tell you how many times I've been out and
09:31
no one will talk to me,
09:33
but they'll stare at me from across the road.
09:34
You know what I mean?
09:35
I'm like not that didn't exist.
09:37
People just walked up to you and you were a lot more
09:39
confident. They don't know how to let loose.
09:41
They're a little self conscious.
09:42
They care what people think about them versus when we were growing
09:46
up again. Social media wasn't that big and no one was
09:49
recording like that. So we didn't really have anything to think
09:52
about. We had a lot of music for the girls to
09:54
be like, you know,
09:56
too, but I don't think we have as much grinding music
09:59
We got Tyler Water.
10:01
We love that. We got sometimes a little something cute but
10:05
we need more music to really grind to.
10:08
This is true. It's a different era that mumble rap ain't
10:10
hit it anymore. You can't really grindle rapping is not doing
10:15
it, not doing it.
10:15
The aggressive rap rap music isn't doing it.
10:18
All of that is really fun to dance to by yourself.
10:20
But as far as like dancing with other people,
10:22
you know, you need to know something a little sexy.
10:24
Let's build a checklist for gen ears that they can follow when
10:29
throwing a party. What are some essentials?
10:32
All right. So first we need a good no phone zone
10:35
We need a no video,
10:36
no policy. People need to live in the moment.
10:40
Second, we need a really good playlist.
10:43
We need a good playlist.
10:44
I want to have some old school reggaeton up in there.
10:48
Of course, we need some new school,
10:49
throw some bad bunny in there and I think we need good
10:53
lighting, good lighting.
10:54
It got to be dark,
10:55
it got to be dark and you need to feel like a
10:57
roach when the light comes on,
10:59
you need to feel like you've got to scurry and I got
11:02
to go and I got to go late.
11:03
All right. So let's go back to the list.
11:05
Number one was no phones,
11:06
two fire play list three,
11:09
the lighting, the good lighting and number four was that to
11:12
go late? The party should stop getting popping at like 10
11:15
Yeah, this is true and that's if you want to
11:18
shut it down to,
11:20
you know, but that's what we need.
11:21
And then for the clubs,
11:22
the DJ S the DJ S,
11:24
they're the ones controlling the vibe.
11:26
So we need to DJ to make that vibe sexy.
11:28
I will say though,
11:29
I had a lot of people comment like we still doing this
11:32
over here. So it does live on,
11:34
it does live on and I'm,
11:36
I'm happy it's living on somewhere.
11:38
All right, Jasmine,
11:38
thank you so much for joining us.
11:40
Obviously, you put out a bunch of fun content like we
11:43
were discussing, where can people find you?
11:44
You can find me on Instagram at the Jasmine Ruiz.
11:48
