We were off. I couldn't believe my eyes,
01:06

01:09
On social media it was announced that Aquita del Barrio rest in
01:14
Damn, she passed when did she pass?
01:17
because we got the news Monday,
01:19
but like when did she pass exactly they didn't say.
01:23
I saw the little note and I can't remember now.
01:26
It was, I feel like it's so long ago,
01:28
but I mean her team announced it,
01:30
so we lost the real one,
01:32

01:34
It was on President's Day.
01:36
Fuck President's Day. It's Paquita.

01:43
We should still have a day off.
01:44
We should, we should be called Paquita.
01:45
OK, alright, for sure,
01:47

03:32

03:34
end when you guys share our our post on your stories we

03:39
OG like hater like Kendrick has nothing on her.
03:42
It's like yeah bro like she.
03:44

03:53

03:54

03:57

04:04
I like, I love that man,

04:43
It don't matter. I got both.
04:45
I got both of them patas he dos panzas.
04:50
that's what you're saying.
04:52
So I don't know if you guys been watching the news if
04:54
been caught up with the ASAP Rocky drama.
04:57
Woo! It's been a good one,
05:00
man. He's been serving looks,
05:03
We got Rihanna, his boy.
05:04
It's, it's been a messy situation.
05:07
So this all stemmed from,
05:09
an incident in 2021 where.
05:12
Something happened, you know,
05:13
he got in a little scuffle with his boys.
05:15
Shots were fired. A knuckle was grazed,
05:20
and you know, the verdict finally came in this week and
05:24
was acquitted of two felony counts of assault with a semi-automatic firearm
05:30
Happy. Did you see the clip of him jumping?
05:33
Let's take a look the hug across the world.
05:33
So he got the not guilty.
05:45
Look at the fit man he's tough.
05:45
Get on my way on my way.
05:45
Boom. 2 ros to get a Rihanna.
05:49
She puts on bare wrist.
05:52
Once you get to not,
05:54
not guilty or have you jumping like that honestly and.
05:58
Yeah, they're they're they're making another kid,
06:00
guys, let's be honest.
06:03
There's another kid on the way.
06:04
Yo, and it's funny that that that he mentioned that
06:08
if they do have a third kid,
06:09
he would name it after the lawyer.
06:14
Joe AP ASAP Joe is loading the lady,
06:17
the blonde one? I think it's someone on the team.
06:21
But he, she was on Rocky's side like where's my hug
06:25
at? She was majorly giving her my hug at energy.
06:29
But one thing is for sure,
06:30
ASAP Eli gotta lose the ASAP.
06:33
Can't be referred as AA Elly anymore after he's like now.
06:36
Like he can't be on this squad anymore.
06:38
Like, so drop the name,
06:40
So he ain't ASAP anymore.
06:41
He's slow slow. Slow with it,
06:45
but I mean it's good news for ASAP fans,
06:47
right, for ASAP Rocky fans.
06:49
he had, he has a pretty packed 2025 in store.
06:52
gonna be enrolling loud in March.
06:54
he's, he's on the call,
06:55
the Met Gala co-chair in May,
06:58
and he's in a Spike Lee movie called Highest to Lowest that's
07:01
dropping this summer. So he's booked and busy for this year
07:05
and that makes sense because I saw a post from Ray-Ban
07:08
He's not like one of the creative directors.
07:10
It's like they're probably waiting waiting we announce this.
07:12
It's like let's see what happens they're probably like,
07:14
hey, if he was wearing the,
07:16
the Ray Ban glasses,
07:17
he would have caught on video and this shit would have been
07:23
shout out for that news,
07:24
bro, because I had no idea was even going on neither
07:26
Are we getting a new Rihanna?
07:28
I don't know. I don't know.
07:29
I feel like we'll get a baby first.
07:30
We'll get a I I'm trying to give us the album.
07:34
Weserves the trolls album,
07:36
she's doing the soundtrack for the movie.
07:39
there might be yeah.
07:41
Oh, she's trolling us,
07:43
that's right. So who else got cheese?
07:47
Well, next we have a new winner for our meme of
07:55
I hate to give him a win,
07:57
but Drake has won meme of the week,
08:00
one of the only things he'll be winning this year.
08:06
Drake. Drake has been out here throwing changlas at drones.
08:09
Have you guys seen the video?
08:11
I did. I did see it,
08:13
it's. Yeah, you know,
08:23
Dan on the whack ass.
08:25
Is it legit? You know what?
08:27
It don't look like it because he would have had better aim
08:30
He probably didn't want to hit the drone.
08:31
Yeah, that was a picture of me.
08:32
You don't want to mess the drone up.
08:38
this was an ad for this was not real.
08:42
Did you guys think it was real?
08:45
No way a drone gets up there and he's like,
08:47
oh my God, a dro I would have just walked back
08:48
in my house. I don't go out there too perfectly orchestrated
08:52
and I know that people were kind of like what was
08:56
on his computer screen like we kind of look like PH like
09:00
what are that what is that?
09:08
Oh you know the hub hub but no,
09:09
it's. Take the ad that the gambling application that he
09:13
just keeps promoting so yeah it was sponsored or yeah I
09:19
don't know if he's a stakeholder in stake but he goes
09:22
hard for that app and he didn't go hard for that throw
09:25
but you know what though,
09:27
if it was orchestrated by him,
09:30
he did his research because he's probably like oh that song.
09:33
Had with Chinito Paass and party next door.
09:36
but I'm gonna get the Latinos like this y'all gonna be meaning
09:39
me because I'm gonna be throwing a changla,
09:41
and I know you guys throw changlas.
09:43
I'm so I'm gonna tell you what that form trash.
09:47
You think his kids listening to him with that form?
09:51
I know Adonis likes to play basketball,
09:54
Like this makes it hard for him to be taken seriously on
09:57
the court. But Drake,
09:59
the acting, this is where I say,
10:02
go back to what you're good at.
10:06
he wasn't really convincing,
10:08
he convinced, but he played the part like he got into
10:11
character, the costume,
10:13
the Selena shirt, the boot the bos.
10:17
He could go play a Latina mommy as we said in the
10:19
he he freaking went like this to us,
10:21
to the Latino community,
10:23
reeled us all in with everything,
10:25
but it was all for clowning because I wanna shout out my
10:27
friend, bro. He messaged like,
10:29
Getting on Drake this and that,
10:30
but I'm like, shut the hell up,
10:32
bro. Like it's fun to hate Drake right now.
10:34
That's the thing. That's how the internet works.
10:37
and I, I like Drake personally don't judge me guys.
10:43
I like Take Care Drake.
10:44
That's what I wanna hear another Take Care album after the Kendrick
10:51
I love Kendrick and I love Drake.
10:54
OK, so it's interesting you bring that up because there's something
10:56
else kind of brewing in that same space of artists that we
10:59
love kind of being canceled or not really,
11:03
you know, fan favorites anymore.
11:05
Danielle, I know you have,
11:06
some tea there for us.
11:07
Yeah, Mr. Kanye West.
11:10
I. And peso pluma us they,
11:16
they work together and there's a song coming out on Kanye's new
11:19
album coming soon called Bully and Pesos Pesos on the album and
11:29
Bow choice to to hop on during these times,
11:32
oh for sure, especially after that that Super Bowl commercial of
11:36
him,, selling Nazi merch,
11:39
yeah, well, besides that like that was the first and
11:42
then he like publicly crashed out times a million like the worst
11:46
I would say. Can you separate the art from the artist
11:51
and still collaborate right now?
11:58
I almost wore my peso blew my shirt today,
12:02
I really told me something about something and I was like,
12:04
I'm a, I don't know cause it's tough.
12:06
What do you think Lea?
12:07
I feel like you've been kind of quiet.
12:08
I mean. He probably did this a minute ago and now
12:12
it's just coming out,
12:14
but yeah, it's a bold choice to like I don't know
12:16
if he'll stand behind it when it drops.
12:18
You think he'll, he'll,
12:19
he'll go on tour with him or like perform the song together
12:23
but, but the songs are coming out in this current like
12:27
climate like let's our boys were Frontera,
12:29
right? Like we were like they came in a couple of
12:31
times we talked to them.
12:33
And then the whole Trump thing hap like people aren't vibing with
12:36
them anymore, but like will,
12:39
will, will, will their minds change come June because I
12:42
think it drops in June in June.
12:44
But also I don't know what it is about Kanye maybe because
12:47
he's not fazed by backlash.
12:49
You don't care. People don't like,
12:51
I don't know if they,
12:53
they come for him a lot for the shit he does because
12:56
I maybe he just doesn't get,
12:57
he doesn't care who knows in the mix now that's kind of
12:59
a little different I think well,
13:06
but you think the song's gonna be fired.
13:10
I heard a snippet of it isn't the first time they've collaborated
13:15
together. When they have a song together or at least pesos
13:20
on the song. It's I'm not sure if someone could pull
13:24
it up, but give me a second.
13:28
but the bit in the little film or the little video that
13:32
shows this time around does sound good.
13:36
I don't know as an artist,
13:38
I think it's still an interesting choice to be standing by.
13:42
That work even if you know you could say oh we did
13:45
this a year ago we did this 2 years ago yeah I
13:49
I, I even think even artists get starstruck so I
13:52
think with him Kanye,
13:54
oh my God, it's Kanye.
13:55
Same thing with maybe Chino Paass oh my god,
13:58
it's Drake like let's make a song.
14:00
So I think it could have been like that where it's like
14:03
I'm never gonna get this opportunity.
14:04
I wanna work with him because this is the,
14:07
yeah. I completely agree with that,
14:10
yeah, in the music realm he's he's a genius.
14:12
I look at his in the past,
14:13
but I don't know everything's so weird right now with him,
14:16
so the end of the day we're all human,
14:21
so I think the star struck.
14:23
But what are the fans saying like in the comments because I
14:25
know there was some comments or his girl,
14:32
his girl you think Kenya said Hannah.
14:38
Hannah Howe has already spoken out.
14:40
She's not his girl like like two exes ago,
14:48
the one where there was Lagueita,
14:50
the dog and all that drama,
14:52
she spoke out and on her Instagram story and said
14:55
they're both too fucked up narcissists and it's disgusting that Peststo would
15:00
work with him. So interesting that she's commenting on.
15:06
Both of them, I'm like,
15:08
did she have something with Kanye?
15:09
I don't, I don't remember.
15:11
I mean, I understand her,
15:13
but it sounds like she's a little salty still.
15:17
the peso had rent free.
15:19
but that's the content that's driving,
15:22
right? She'd be mentioning him on Ticky talkers.
15:24
That's what she's known,
15:27
but. What what do you guys think man?
15:30
It's gonna be tough.
15:31
Yeah, let us know what you guys think.
15:33
Are you for this collab?
15:34
Are you deaf? Are you,
15:41
Are you gonna watch from afar and see what happens
15:42
yeah man. You have any more stories?
15:51
what, what, what you have another story?
15:54
No, you mentioned them earlier,
15:56
just. What about them?
16:01
here we go. El Gordo del Gordo de la Flaca actually
16:05
confronted them. During,
16:07
well, not confronted them,
16:08
but he asked them about the situation in a subtle ways premioslo
16:13
Nuestro, which happened last night last night.
16:15
Oh, this is fresh fresh cheese,
16:18
and basically he was like,
16:21
Hey ciendo Grupo Frontera.
16:25
Keenan lo questa pasa la Frontera.
16:30
he went like this and then they go,
16:35

16:45
Behind the screen like And yes,
16:47
and they were out yeah yeah yeah get out of there.
16:51
Yeah, I saw comments on that.
16:52
People were not happy like they could have obviously spoken up and
16:56
try to clear up the situation,
16:57
you know, they had a mic handed to them,
17:03
I actually, I saw them perform because you know I went
17:06
to Costa Rica, so I went to Picnic fest.
17:09
I saw them perform in Costa Rica this last Saturday this
17:12
past Saturday Ios and cantados.
17:16
In Cantados, the fans were going crazy for them,
17:19
so it's crazy to think like the,
17:23
it on TikTok, the backlash here and then in Costa Rica
17:29
they don't know what like it's,
17:30
it's unfazed Como yeah they have their fan base,
17:35
it's, it's different it's different it is to be fair though
17:38
in Costa Rica they're not being directly affected by they're unfazed
17:42
by it. It doesn't affect them by yeah yeah I get

19:21
Wait, wait, so I'm doing it right today we are
19:24
joined by Virginia Novello,
19:26
Marta Mendez Cross, Valeria Maldonado,
19:30
and Cristo Fernandez to talk about their new film La Stre Sisters
19:41
An. Very happy to be here.
19:47
Through the film we follow the journey of Lares.
19:51
That that's OK. Yes.
19:56
So how did the Tres sisters come all together?
20:00
It's her fault. Yeah,
20:02
we blame her. We blame and we thank her.
20:07
I had met Marta first through one of my mentors,
20:12
We started writing a short film and.
20:14
was 8 months pregnant and we wanted her to direct.
20:18
She accepted to direct this when she was 8 months pregnant.
20:21
And so Sisters, the short films,
20:25
she directed and then it was easy though to
20:29
direct you to. They're so talented.
20:32
And then when it started as a short film,
20:34
then it became a feature,
20:35
you know, with so many people involved.
20:37
You gave birth to a baby and the and also my son
20:43
so and this journey has been 9 years.
20:45
So every birthday I,
20:47
you know, I have that kind of time code to go
20:50
off that's crazy. Cristo,
20:53
how did you get involved with this whole project?
20:56
It all takes me back to 2021.
20:59
I was. With my sister Paloma in the festival of
21:03
Guadalajara and suddenly out of nowhere I hear five beautiful talented women
21:08
screaming, screaming, yelling,
21:12
mention this amazing script.
21:15
I, I fell in love with the whole script and the
21:18
and the project because I wanted to shoot more things in my
21:21
hometown Guadalajara, Mexico,
21:23
but also it was an opportunity to discover as well.
21:25
Some beautiful magic towns we have in Jalisco.
21:28
There's so many messages of the of our film.
21:31
One of them is that the journey itself is a miracle.
21:34
I needed you both here to walk abuela's pilgrimage.
21:39
Yeah, no, I'm sorry.
21:42
Well, you talked earlier,
21:44
Cristo too about Pueblo Maico.
21:48
Puerito Maico means magic town,
21:51
so we. have in Mexico many magic towns,
21:54
so many that even myself as a Mexican born and raised in
21:59
Guadalajara, there's still so many magic towns I still need to
22:02
discover. My favorite one is Ayulita is a surf town,
22:08
yeah, Pablo's Mexicos,
22:09
that's the that's the translation definition,
22:11
and, and in our film,
22:14
the three sisters go on a journey on a pilgrimage
22:18
That is very well known in Mexico in Mexico throughout the
22:21
journey they discover,,
22:23
different magic towns. One thing I feel very proud of our
22:26
film is people watch our film,
22:29
they laugh, they cry,
22:30
they everything, but at the end they go like,
22:31
I need to go to Mexico.
22:33
I need to go and discover those magic towns,
22:35
and we screen our film in London.
22:37
We were saying that there were not that many Latinos,
22:40
but they wanted desperately and Virginia.
22:43
Knows the story you can tell.
22:45
Yeah, there was a woman that came right after and
22:47
she said look what I did and she had just bought her
22:49
ticket to Mexico and she's never been and so she's like I
22:52
need to go to these towns.
22:54
I never knew Mexico was this beautiful so we're really,
22:56
really proud that we get to show that side of Mexico and
23:00
that people from all over the world get to appreciate and wanna
23:03
come and visit us because it's just such a beautiful,
23:06
a beautiful country. It really is and.
23:08
What's your favorite magic to tap rotas,
23:09
which we, I said it right.
23:09
Oh my God, because my character in the film is struggles
23:21
with Spanish and says laserta.
23:24
Sorry, I'm giving away the joke.
23:25
Is that OK? Go watch the film still February 21st.
23:28
OK, now going back to the filmambien.
23:31
Well, actually, actually we're gonna actually play a game.
23:36
Yeah, we're gonna play a little game.
23:38
It's called Who's Most Likely to,
23:41
OK, OK, so who's most likely to find the best
23:47
club nearby? In terms of the Virginia,
24:00
Who's most likely to sleep in and miss call times?
24:07
She don't even put herself.
24:08
She's like, are we talking about the real person or the
24:10
characters, the real person who sleeps in until noon almost every
24:14
day. And I was like,
24:16
oh my God, we had a meeting who's most likely to
24:20
be great at karaoke?
24:23
I mean it depends if it's rapping or singing.
24:27
Is it funny or is it like fun or is it corny
24:34
I can do some TLC right now.
24:38
You like I seen a rainbow yesterday,
24:41
but too many storms have come and gone.
24:42
Even a trace of not own God given right is it because
24:45
my life is 10 shades of gray?
24:46
I pray all 0 fatal was seldom praise him for the sunny
24:50
and unconditional skies have dry the tears from my eyes.
24:52
No lonely cries. Damn,
25:02
If anybody needs a 90s like rap person,
25:06

25:08
so we're most likely to to know the best food.
25:12

26:52
Today we are here with the award-winning mixologist,
26:54
author, and owner of the Jet Bar in Houston,
27:01
having you guys. This is great.
27:03
Oh yeah, we're excited.
27:04
We saw you setting up and we're kind of just,
27:06
you know, seeing what's going on.
27:08
So can you give us a breakdown of what we're gonna do
27:09
today? Yes, today we are going to make two different
27:12
cocktails. They're both based on the margarita.
27:15
The blue margarita, because you guys are super fun and I
27:18
know you like to have a good time.
27:19
We're gonna make a really fun.
27:20
Drink and the morning call,
27:22
which is a drink that I made,
27:25
a little bit lighter,
27:26
so it's more of a hair of the dog drink.
27:27
So it's buena cruda for the day after.
27:30
Friday night, Saturday morning dangerous and reviving the revival back to
27:36
life. Are we ready to go?
27:38
So we're going to start with the quila.
27:42
Delicious delectable tequila. It's an ounce and a half.
27:45
Talking about tequila. Like,
27:47
how do you know the difference between cheap tequila and good tequila
27:49
So there's a difference,
27:50
I think, in quality and how it's produced.
27:54
There's 3 shots in here because we're making 3 drinks.
27:59
It really has to do with getting to know the producer,
28:02
you know, if you look at.
28:03
In the back of every bottle,
28:04
there's a no. So every bottle has a gnome,
28:06
and it'll tell you exactly where it's coming from.
28:09
So it has, it's kind of like a geo tag per
28:11
se of who's making it.
28:14
So it's good to know where your tequila is coming from.
28:17
This is made by Carlos Cabarena,
28:19
who is an excellent master distiller,
28:21
so I think you guys will really enjoy it.
28:24
And it's a 1/4 ounce of blue carousel and 3/4 ounces of
28:30
lime juice for a cocktail.
28:36
1/4 ounce of agave nectar per drink.
28:42
We have your blue margarita ready to shake.
28:47
Let me add a little bit of ice to that.
28:51
I've never had a blue margarita before.
28:55
Really adios is that adios is not a margarita like a drink
29:01
Is there a specific like yeah you have to do it because
29:04
you just like shake it anywhere.
29:06
I've seen all sorts of shakes,
29:07
honestly, like, as long as your back's protected,
29:10
I've seen. People do like like you have to wear like
29:19
a faja or something or like and you're doing a lot of
29:20
drinks, so it's like it's gonna take a toll.
29:25
Finish with a little lime garnish.
29:40
this is dangerous. But it's not strong,
29:42
right? I feel like it's not too overpowering,
29:44
so that's why it's dangerous he keeps sipping in silent.
29:49
Oh, that's what he said.
29:51
but are we ready for the next one?
29:54
Well, before we move on,
29:55
I do have a question for you.
29:56
Yes, are you a mezcal or tequila type of girl?
30:00
I'm an agave lover like mezcal,
30:05
Bacanora, tequila, but you don't have a preference.
30:09
It's really hard to pick.
30:10
I love mezcal from Guerrero a lot.
30:14
Tequila from, I mean,
30:15
the Highlands and from Tequila Valley.
30:17
So sometimes the regions will pull me into a certain.
30:20
Like brand, but overall the agave spirits are are my favorite
30:25
OK, so we'll move on to make the morning call
30:28
for the custom custom.
30:29
It's 1 ounce and a half of blanco tequila and a 1/2
30:34
ounce of agave nectar for each cocktail and a 1/2 ounce of
30:39
lime juice for each drink.
30:42
And what's your favorite pairing with these margaritas?
30:45
Tamales. Tamales, tamales all the way.
30:51
And we're going to add a little ice.
30:57
Oh. That was a longer shake.
31:05
Is it because it's more ingredients or just it has a little
31:08
more sugar. They mostly it is going to be a longer
31:13
drink. This one's going to get tonic.
31:15
So the sta when we say long,
31:19
the elongated flavors of the cocktail.
31:22
Like yeah, long drinks.
31:25
A little tonic. And is there a margarita making tip that
31:30
people should know, but they don't?
31:32
Use fresh limes. I know it's always,
31:35
it seems easy to get a little fake lime juice at the
31:38
grocery store, especially if you're making a few drinks at home
31:41
Fresh lime all the way.
31:44
Yeah, nothing, nothing beats a fresh lime margarita.
31:48
And we top it off with a hibiscus mascon for a nice
31:52
little layer. Do you make it?
31:55
Yeah, we just infuse it and it sits about 2 hours
31:58
and it extracts beautiful color and flavor.
32:00
Garnish it with, oh,
32:10
that's cute. All right,
32:10
what's cheers salud cheers salud.
32:11
That's so good. Yeah,
32:15
I like the hibiscus.
32:16
I don't like mezcal usually because it's a little smoky,
32:19
but obviously that kind of makes it a little more subtle.
32:23
And hibiscus is a flavor that you know,
32:24
right? It's like something that's very appetizing.
32:30
I'm not complaining, but it is.
32:32
All right. And your bar brings a little bit of Mexico
32:35
how long has your bar been open?
32:37
It's been open for 10 years now,
32:38
so we just celebrate our 10 year anniversary.
32:41
Yeah, we love our community.
32:42
It's been a wonderful,
32:43
wonderful experience and I,
32:46
you know, I couldn't be happier than What we've accomplished and
32:50
how much that our people love us,
32:51
like our, our community is wonderful.
32:56
