S2 Ep685: Is it Okay For Men to Cry?

Speaker 00s - 9.36s

The Dana Cortez Show ORG podcast begins now. I'm going to tell you a story about when pride goes wrong,

Speaker 79.52s - 15.2s

and it involves my husband, DJ Automatic PERSON. Good morning. It's Tuesday. What's good, everyone. It's the Dana Cortez PERSON. So, I'm Dana Cortez PERSON.

Speaker 515.3s - 18.04s

The very prideful DJ Automatic PERSON. I go by Anthony PERSON 8.

Speaker 718.2s - 20.92s

So we were at a restaurant recently, and I told Automatic ORG.

Speaker 520.92s - 22.46s

We went out of the restaurant. We were at the airport.

Speaker 722.6s - 37.54s

Okay. The spot looked gross. And I said, I'm going to walk down the hall here and find another spot. And he said, there are no other spots. And I said, there have to be. It's an airport.And he said, no. And I said, this place looks disgusting. He said, well, go do whatever you want to do, thinking that I wasn't going to find a good spot.

Speaker 437.7s - 39.18s

Talk about separate restaurants, right?

Speaker 739.22s - 59.06s

Yes. So I go down. I find his good spot. I said, hey, I'm about to be seated and order my food. And I could tell he was not happy about this because I found a better spot. Later on, he says to me, God, my stomach hurts.Oh, no. I just didn't want you to win. And so I ate this gross restaurant when you could have just come with me and eaten at a good spot.

Speaker 559.28s - 65.78s

Every man listening right now, every married man listening right now knows the struggle it is to get your wife to just agree.

Speaker 066.02s - 68.42s

Just agree on anything to go eat wherever you want to eat.

Speaker 768.7s - 71.9s

If you ever been in the Las Vegas airport, there's not a lot of choices for restaurants.

Speaker 072.08s - 73.94s

And I didn't want to leave that little rounded section.

Speaker 774.06s - 74.76s

And I thought, you know what?

Speaker 674.82s - 76.3s

I'm just going to eat this right here.

Speaker 776.46s - 80.6s

No, that's not what you said. You said, I didn't want to admit that you were right. Damn.

Speaker 580.6s - 81.28s

Well, that part too.

Speaker 881.64s - 84.78s

But I stood there because there was no seats where I ate.

Speaker 585.04s - 86.46s

And I ate those nachos.

Speaker 886.54s - 87.02s

Oh, you ate nach?

Speaker 787.6s - 88.64s

Black bean nachos.

Speaker 889.28s - 91.6s

And they were, I'm not going to lie, they were disgusting.

Speaker 091.86s - 94.6s

But I ate every single one of them just to spite my wife.

Speaker 595.18s - 101.4s

And I don't know how it spited her, but I'll tell you this, I felt good about it after. Because I didn't cave to go eat where you wanted to go eat.

Speaker 7101.4s - 104.8s

How about an hour and a half later? How did you feel? I had to take a pepto. It's okay.

Speaker 5105.86s - 107.48s

When pride goes wrong.

Speaker 4108.1s - 112.08s

Anytime you're doing black bean nachos, but the black bean airport nachos, you're...

Speaker 7112.08s - 114.16s

Black bean airport nachos, you're a host.

Speaker 4114.52s - 118.02s

The moral of this story is sometimes you've got to swallow your pride.

Speaker 7118.18s - 120.92s

No, the moral of the story is sometimes you have to defy your wife.

Speaker 5121.04s - 121.78s

That's what it is.

Speaker 4122.4s - 124.12s

Even if it means an upset stomach, okay?

Speaker 5124.12s - 126.26s

Stand on business and sit on the toilet.

Speaker 7127.6s - 128.48s

I'll tell you what.

Speaker 5128.64s - 129.52s

I won that round.

Speaker 4129.82s - 130.76s

I promised you that.

Speaker 7131.06s - 132.04s

Everybody in a car.

Speaker 4132.22s - 132.86s

What you do, Dana PERSON?

Speaker 5132.86s - 138.14s

Oh, I ate a beautiful homemade chicken noodle soup with a side of crackers and some

Speaker 6138.14s - 138.82s

fridge fries.

Speaker 4138.96s - 140.02s

And that's why I didn't go with her.

Speaker 6140.12s - 141.46s

Because I didn't want to eat chicken noodle soup.

Speaker 5141.46s - 144.96s

I'd rather have crappy black bean nachos than chicken noodles soup.

Speaker 4144.96s - 149.6s

I thought airport black bean nachos is the worst, but airport chicken noodle soup, that's wild. You guys are crazy.

Speaker 7150.06s - 151.08s

National Day, Anthony PERSON.

Speaker 4151.26s - 153.34s

All right, we have National Teacher Day.

Speaker 7153.46s - 159.22s

Shout out all the teachers across the world as well, too. You should have a starting salary of six figures.

Speaker 4159.46s - 163.44s

Hey, it's National Teacher Appreciation Week, so let's keep the love going all week.

Speaker 7163.6s - 164.98s

And maybe you can buy them a drink.

Speaker 4164.98s - 169.92s

It's National Cosmopolitan Day, as in a drink that going all week. And maybe you can buy them a drink. It's National Cosmopolitan Day, as in the drink that's made of vodka, triple sec, and cranberry juice.

Speaker 7175.26s - 178.72s

Okay, so I found out before we open a mic here, that this drink was made in Minneapolis GPE, Minnesota was invented in, now I've never been to Minneapolis GPE.

Speaker 5181.76s - 182.06s

Well, as somebody who grew up in Minnesota GPE, I'm going to tell you right now,

Speaker 7183.56s - 186.64s

that is not the most posh place. Is that the most pop to place in the country? I would have never thought that I would have

Speaker 5186.64s - 191.9s

thought it came from Manhattan GPE or something, but no. Okay, so one of the most watched series in history,

Speaker 7192.04s - 197.4s

and it's back, by the way, Gen Z is all over it right now, always featured the Cosmopolitan PRODUCT as a

Speaker 5197.4s - 206.58s

drink. What is it? 877730 DCS1. The Dana Cortez Show ORG podcast. According to our article on men's health,

Speaker 7206.88s - 210.1s

65% of 10,000 men

Speaker 0210.1s - 212.66s

polled think that crying is weak

Speaker 7212.66s - 214.46s

when you're a man, that it shows weakness.

Speaker 4214.72s - 215.76s

I don't agree.

Speaker 7215.98s - 217.12s

Well, crying is showing weakness,

Speaker 4217.3s - 223.02s

and it's showing a side of vulnerability, which a lot of times, too, men are afraid of cry because of how we get viewed from women.

Speaker 5223.3s - 224.28s

And a lot of times,

Speaker 0224.6s - 227.54s

crying in front of a woman can go good or it can go horribly bad.

Speaker 5227.66s - 238.38s

As you could see you in a different light. I know it's a toxic trait that men have, but men have been taught for as long as I know, don't cry because if you do, like Anthony PERSON said, you're vulnerable, you're a woman.

Speaker 7238.94s - 239.9s

You're the P word.

Speaker 5240.3s - 265.06s

Why is showing one of your emotions weakness? You cry when you're a baby. It is innately ingrained into your DNA. If it wasn't, you wouldn't cry the moment you're born. It's one of the emotions you must express in order to move on with the other emotions that you were born with. I'm not saying you've got to be a whiny, low cry baby and cry about everything.But if that emotion is there, if you don't release it, it could turn into some toxicity.

Speaker 4265.32s - 276.52s

Yeah, because I think on the flip side of that, acting out or like, you know, raging or like, you know, some guys, every guy has put his fist through a drywall, that looks more goofier than crying. You know what's funny to me is then guys cry during sports.

Speaker 7277.2s - 280s

Oh, Anthony PERSON, thank you. See, that's not a reason to cry.

Speaker 4280.16s - 287.84s

No, well, it is because it's the way you put everything out there. You put your emotions on the line. You invested all this and, you know, it's tough when you try your hardest.

Speaker 7287.94s - 290.58s

Oh, I thought you meant watching the game. You mean playing the game.

Speaker 4290.58s - 293.34s

If you're watching the game and crying, you got a problem.

Speaker 5293.46s - 294.52s

And I was playing sports.

Speaker 4294.64s - 304s

I learned one of the biggest lessons about crying from one of my football coaches. And he said, it's okay to cry. But if you're in competition, if you're in contest, don't let your enemy and see you cry.

Speaker 5304.12s - 305.22s

And I still agree by that.

Speaker 4305.22s - 306.2s

Because they'll view it as weakness.

Speaker 5306.28s - 309.54s

My most embarrassing crying story actually comes from sports.

Speaker 4309.66s - 310.68s

I was 12 years old.

Speaker 7310.76s - 311.86s

We were playing in the state tournament.

Speaker 5312.1s - 313.66s

We lost the game after the game.

Speaker 7313.76s - 314.86s

I started crying.

Speaker 4315.1s - 318.7s

And my little brother, Matt, who was 11 at the time, he just walked to me.

Speaker 7318.74s - 320.06s

He's like, dude, stop crying.

Speaker 4320.12s - 321.04s

You look like a bitch.

Speaker 7322.42s - 327.98s

And I was like, if I got my little brother telling me to stop crying, I need to clean it up here.

Speaker 8328.24s - 333.34s

Okay, so there was a video that was floating around Canelo Alvarez PERSON, who's one of the best fighters

Speaker 7333.34s - 335.08s

pound for pound in history.

Speaker 8335.28s - 336.3s

His son is in a ring.

Speaker 5336.42s - 338.44s

He gets hit and he wants to cry.

Speaker 7338.44s - 349.64s

And one of Canelo PERSON's team tells him, don't cry because men don't cry. Canelo PERSON goes over there and tells his son, nah, you need to cry. And we sat down with him recently and I asked him, where did you learn that? Here's his response.

Speaker 2350.08s - 354.98s

It's okay to cry. He's not going to be less men or more.

Speaker 7355.38s - 374.48s

It's okay to cry to let that things go out. It feels good. He didn't learn it from his daddy because his daddy, he explained us would tell me, don't you dare cry. But he realized that that was not allowing him to grow intelligently as a fighter, as a father, as a person. And so he told his son, you got to let it out, let it go.

Speaker 4374.74s - 382.48s

Yeah. And I think for all the heat that Gen Z gets, their approach and their prioritization of mental health is just going to be better for all mankind as old. For humanity.

Speaker 6382.78s - 385.82s

When's the last time you cried, aunt? I've been having, like, emotional waves

Speaker 4385.82s - 409.18s

ever since I lost my best friend last year. He transitioned over, and not to a woman, but to, you know, passing. And he would laugh at that. Man, the biggest cry I had, though, was on his way to his burial services. I was in my car by myself driving, and I was eating pork rinds. And, you know, if you've ever dealing with the passing of a person, it comes in waves, dog. And I just remember I started to bawling, dude. The Morcos and pork rinds and you know if you've ever dealing with the passing of the person it comes in waves dog and I just remember I started bawling dude and the locals and pork

Speaker 7409.18s - 416.36s

rites all over so that was the last hard cry I had automatic you need to cry more I've been married to

Speaker 5416.36s - 422.32s

you over a decade and I think I've seen you cry four times max three were for dogs every time my dog

Speaker 4422.32s - 430.14s

dies I cry I'm sorry I will but I didn't cry when my dad died but I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that he used to tell me, if you keep crying, I'm going to give you something to cry about.

Speaker 7430.34s - 433.52s

So subconsciously, I just wasn't going to cry.

Speaker 4433.6s - 434.18s

But I did cry.

Speaker 7434.32s - 436.94s

When my friend Bobby PERSON, he passed recently, drug overdose.

Speaker 5437.34s - 437.98s

And it was hard.

Speaker 0438.06s - 439.22s

I mean, he was my lifelong friend.

Speaker 8439.22s - 441.38s

And I found myself in the church crying.

Speaker 0441.66s - 446.14s

Men's health says that research suggests crying sues you,

Speaker 7446.46s - 459.18s

lifts your mood, reduces pain, and allows you to move forward. There's a difference between crying and being a cry baby. And it's okay to let that emotion out. A77730 DCS1 PRODUCT. The Dana Cortez Show

Speaker 0459.18s - 464.74s

podcast. 200 people just competed in a marathon to find out who's the best waiter.

Speaker 7464.9s - 465.64s

What's up?

Speaker 0465.72s - 466.74s

Let's talk about this.

Speaker 6466.98s - 496.76s

They're all servers. They all had to wear tuxes. They're holding trays. Each tray has croissants, a glass of water filled to the top, and coffee. They have to walk. Remember, you can't run in a restaurant.So you have to walk a mile and a quarter. And it comes down to more than just crossing the finish line first. How much coffee did you spill? How much water did you spill? Are your croissant still on the plate? The man who won, his name is Sammy Lamorous PERSON.He finished the mile and a quarter in 13 minutes and 30 seconds.

Speaker 4496.94s - 498.04s

Damn, that's impressive.

Speaker 7498.04s - 500.84s

That's the coat right there. Even if you're not carrying a train.

Speaker 4500.84s - 504.64s

You know what in a world where we're like tipping too much people, that man deserves a full on tip.

Speaker 7504.64s - 507s

There you go. Shout out to him. Good point, dude.

Speaker 6507.22s - 510.14s

Turn the thing around and I'm going to tip you 25% sir.

Speaker 4510.26s - 511.26s

You deserve the crown.

Speaker 8511.72s - 512.26s

All right.

Speaker 4512.36s - 517.42s

From fast waiters to Russia GPE, where rumor is they're developing an invisibility cloak.

Speaker 5517.58s - 534.02s

Invisibility. There it is. Thank you. Automatic. Similar to the one that they had at Harry Potter FAC, which makes sense because Plutwind's kind of like Voldemort PERSON.So, you know, that's accurate. But this is kind of built like a rain poncho, and it protects you from heat-seeking cameras, infrared light at night, and night vision goggles as well, too.

Speaker 7534.06s - 540.14s

Sounds like something all the robbers are trying to avoid the ring cameras would want. Ooh. Poor, can you

Speaker 5540.14s - 541.16s

hide out from your wife in there?

Speaker 6542.28s - 544.08s

Automatic. Only you

Speaker 7544.08s - 546.02s

would have that little comeback right there.

Speaker 6546.26s - 546.56s

Geez.

Speaker 5546.64s - 561.22s

All right, guys, we're going to go to Columbia ORG. There's this new condom that you can put on two hours before sex. It's like a sock and it can expand up to eight times its size. The demo shows that it takes a lot of tugging and pulling to get it on, but our members are used to that.

Speaker 7561.6s - 564.36s

We do a lot of tugging and pulling on. Everybody listens. I hear about that. Okay.

Speaker 5564.64s - 569.96s

Here's the catch, though. It's not reusable. So if you don't use it within the two hours, you cannot use it again.

Speaker 7570.06s - 580.58s

You're betting a lot on going on a date and putting that on before in hopes of having sexy time. How much money you're going to spend every single time and then not be able to use it.

Speaker 4580.84s - 586.72s

Damn, though. Between like that and then like all the blue chew pills right now, there's like a lot of premeditated steps that man are not going to have to take.

Speaker 7587.14s - 589.72s

There really are. No wonder AI girlfriends are on top right now.

Rolling Stone magazine has declared a winner in the Drake versus Kendrick PERSON Beef. I'll tell you who they think it is. And let's talk about who you think it is right now. This and more Best Gossip Daily Dirt, Anthony A PERSON celebrity birthdays. Jay Balvin's celebrating his birthday and Mr. Bees Daily Dirt, Anthony A. Celebrity PERSON Birthdays.

Speaker 4607.42s - 608.28s

Jay Belvin celebrating his birthday and Mr. B. PERSON celebrating birthday as well.

Speaker 7608.52s - 616.38s

All right, so Tom Brady roasted Kanye West at his roast, which you can watch on Netflix ORG now. And Kim Kardashian PERSON was there. Take a listen.

Speaker 3616.68s - 629.48s

Kim Kardashian PERSON. Thank you so much for being here. I know Kim was terrified to be here tonight. Not because of this, but because her kids are home with their dad. Ooh.

Speaker 7629.6s - 660.52s

That would be icy. All right, now we're going to talk about sexy red. She's gone country. First, it was Beyonce PERSON. Now, at a Zach Bryant PERSON concert, he's a big country artist. He's in a home of sexy red St. Louis GPE, and he brought her on stage.I was shocked because I know country music is supposed to be very conservative. If you know who sexy red is, rich baby daddy on Drake PERSON's song, not conservative, the exact opposite of conservative. She's twerking, she's dancing, and she's up there for more than 16 minutes, and the crowd is loving every second of it. Had I not been to her concert that

Speaker 5660.52s - 664.82s

you made me go to, I would not believe this, but she's got something about her that just makes you like her.

Speaker 4664.92s - 667.36s

Superstar. Drake PERSON's going to get upset that somebody's taking his best friend.

Speaker 7668.06s - 673.34s

Maybe so. And speaking of Drake, let's talk about Rolling Stone ORG magazine. They have declared a winner

Speaker 4673.34s - 679.2s

in this heavyweight match between Kendrick and Drake PERSON. It's been a lot to keep up with. In fact,

Speaker 5679.2s - 683.94s

listen to this. Drake says he fed Kendrick PERSON the information about his daughter.

Speaker 4683.94s - 686.96s

We plotted for a week and then we fed you the information.

Speaker 5687.3s - 689.9s

A daughter that's 11 years old, I bet he takes it.

Speaker 7690.1s - 692.66s

We thought about giving a fake name or a destination.

Speaker 6693s - 695.48s

But you're so thirsty, you're not concerned with investigation.

Speaker 7695.84s - 698.34s

Instead, you in that Venice GPE studio is a celebration.

Speaker 1698.68s - 701.24s

You got to learn to fact check things and be less impatient.

Speaker 7701.46s - 711.08s

That's from Drake's latest release, The Heart Part 6 WORK_OF_ART, out of the 5 million releases we've gotten in the past four days. Great for hip-hop. But I think it's, I believe it's a little too much at this point.

Speaker 0711.36s - 715.06s

Rolling Stone says Kendrick Lamar PERSON has won this round.

Speaker 5715.46s - 717.2s

No, they said that he's won the battles.

Speaker 7717.26s - 722.52s

They said the bulk of the rap beef has already been done, and they say he's going to be the winner no matter what.

Speaker 4722.52s - 730.04s

I agree. And I would put Drake at a solid 1 and 2 with one win against Meek and then two losses against or one loss against Pusha T and then this loss against Kendrick PERSON.

Speaker 7730.2s - 740.66s

Yeah, I think so too. I think that when you get in a ring with somebody like Kendrick Lamar, and I'm a Drake PERSON fan, y'all know this. It's just going to be hard to do because Kendrick is just a better rapper and lyricist than Drake PERSON.

Speaker 5740.82s - 744.06s

I don't think Drake PERSON's going to let it go and I think it could end up hurting his career.

Speaker 7744.28s - 748.5s

Do you think it matters if Kendrick is lying about Drake PERSON having this fictitious daughter?

Speaker 5748.78s - 752.28s

No, because Drake PERSON's the one who fed him the information. But he went with it.

Speaker 7752.58s - 756.02s

Exactly. In a way, I mean, it was kind of genius what Drake PERSON did.

Speaker 5756.18s - 759.5s

But people love Kendrick PERSON and no matter what, he's just a better lyricist.

Speaker 7759.5s - 763.06s

Yeah, but you've already hit one kid full, so we don't believe you, dog.

Speaker 4763.44s - 765.66s

Your credibility is out the window, bro.

Speaker 7765.66s - 770.06s

That's why he did it because he knew Kendrick PERSON would run to the studio and rap about it,

Speaker 6770.14s - 771.34s

even if it wasn't true.

Speaker 4771.84s - 773.36s

Nah, you still hide in the daughter, bro.

Speaker 7773.4s - 773.64s

Yeah.

Speaker 6774.44s - 775.2s

It's not even true.

Speaker 7775.32s - 780.74s

In case you missed it, Anissa Tinnon, this grandmother was at home, enjoying a night with her four-year-old granddaughter that were dancing at Taylor Swift PERSON. And then 32-year-old Joseph Rivera PERSON broke into their house. Now, she managed to call 911 PRODUCT, and here she is telling her granddaughter to hide. I need you to be really brave, so I, okay?

Speaker 8802.32s - 803.56s

I, you know, I got to go.

Speaker 7803.96s - 805.7s

You stay right here, and I have a bedroom, okay? Yeah, it's okay, baby? I'm, you know, I gotta go. You stay right here and I have a bettering, okay?

Speaker 8805.9s - 810.32s

Yeah, it's okay, baby. I know, honey. It's okay. It's okay.

Speaker 7810.5s - 817.24s

It's okay. Oh, my gosh. What happened next is insane. So I go last. My story's going to be last. Dij Automatic.

Speaker 5817.38s - 833.44s

New study from China GPE says cold beer tastes better. We already knew that. Well, the Chinese NORP did the research, and they found that beer forms microscopic chain-like structures when it's cold, which makes it taste better and tastes smoother than room temperature beer.Somebody tell China I've been doing the research for a past decade.

Speaker 7833.66s - 841.24s

I think beer's disgusting, cold or hot. I'm sorry, there's something about it that tastes like vomit. I don't know how to disagree.

Speaker 4841.24s - 844s

You're alone on that one. Yeah, sounds like a dramatic story right there, dude.

Speaker 7844s - 848.38s

One time in high school, I drank a beer ball.

Speaker 0848.46s - 849.1s

Have you ever heard of that?

Speaker 5849.26s - 850.88s

Where there's like two beers and one?

Speaker 4850.9s - 851.78s

Have we heard of it?

Speaker 5851.96s - 854.02s

When was the last time I did one is a better question?

Speaker 7854.26s - 858.9s

I did it. And then I ate pizza and the pizza and the beer all came up.

Speaker 4859.02s - 863.12s

And I'll never forget the taste. That's on you, not the beer, dog.

Speaker 7863.2s - 865.2s

And it was room temperature when it came back up.

Speaker 4865.2s - 878.32s

Oh, gross. Dude. All right. In case you missed it, Google released the most search vacation destinations in America GPE. And surprisingly to me, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina was the most searched area in America GPE. I don't know.

Speaker 5878.32s - 880.8s

Because they're trying to figure out where it's at. Thanks.

Speaker 6880.8s - 881.66s

Nobody wants to go there.

Speaker 5881.82s - 882.94s

They're just trying to locate it.

Speaker 4883.6s - 884.34s

It's beautiful.

Speaker 5884.72s - 885.14s

It's all. It's all?

Speaker 4885.42s - 886.56s

Oh, a hidden gym.

Speaker 5886.66s - 887.52s

Maybe that's what it is.

Speaker 6887.52s - 889.62s

Way to save face with all the South Carolina GPE homies automatic.

Speaker 7889.96s - 897.22s

And we also have Niagara Falls coming in second, followed by the Grand Canyon and then Universal Studios ORG theme park, which I have not been one of those.

Speaker 6897.34s - 898.02s

I want to go to one of those.

Speaker 4898.12s - 901.44s

Automatic's been trying to get me to go to Grand Canyon LOC, but I'm like, it's a big hole in the ground.

Speaker 6901.64s - 902.48s

It's beautiful, Dana PERSON.

Speaker 7902.64s - 905.24s

I mean, it's like nothing you've ever seen before. So I guess we'll go check out this hole in the ground. It's beautiful, Dana PERSON. I mean, it's like nothing you've ever seen before.

Speaker 5905.4s - 907.48s

So I guess we'll go check out this hole in the ground.

Speaker 7907.62s - 919.88s

All right. In case you missed it, Anissa Tinnon PERSON is a grandma. She's babysitting her four-year-old granddaughter. They're dancing to Taylor Swift PERSON. 32-year-old Joseph Rivera PERSON breaks in. Okay, if you missed it a little earlier, I played this part of the 911 call.

Speaker 8920.24s - 925.08s

This guy came into my house. I'm trying to take my call. Please help me. This is when he first broken. She gave him her key fob. He left and came into my home. I'm trying to take my call. Please help me.

Speaker 7926.26s - 942.08s

This is when he first broke in. She gave him her key fob. He left and came back. Oh. This time she was prepared. She told her grandbaby,hide in your bedroom. As he's coming at her through the hallway back a second time because cops approached her home, she had a gun. Here's that part of the 911 PRODUCT call.

Speaker 8942.44s - 956.9s

You're back. I have a gun. Get back. Get back. I have a gun. Get back. Get back. I will. What did you do?He just asked her why you shot me.

Speaker 7957.74s - 962.16s

He just asked her why you shot me, sir, because you are threatening me in my home.

Speaker 5962.42s - 964s

You broke into my house. You're going to get shot.

Speaker 7964.14s - 975.88s

She said she felt like she was the only thing between him and her granddaughter, and she didn't know what else to do. And here's the catch here. Instead of being more angry, instead of wanting to hurt him more, she helped him take a listen.

Speaker 8976.2s - 979.8s

I will get you water, but if you fucking hurt me, I'm going to shoot you again.

Speaker 7980.2s - 984.26s

Okay, so she saved the man's life. Police in her at that very moment, they take him away.

Speaker 8984.52s - 986.42s

I mean, her granddaughter is traumatized.

Speaker 7986.5s - 1004.94s

She's traumatized. But she had a gun to protect herself. Ladies, I'm telling you now, keep a gun in the house. Go take that training and all that good stuff. We got a gun in my home. I don't know that I would have the grace that this woman had to help the man who was ready to attack her.Who knows what he might have done to her and the granddaughter? Are you willing to help somebody who was just about to hurt you?

Speaker 51005.12s - 1009.44s

She's a kind soul because somebody breaks in my house. I'm not going to feel bad about what happens to them.

Speaker 71009.62s - 1011.48s

I think she was listening to Taylor Swift's music.

Speaker 41011.66s - 1012.34s

You know what?

Speaker 71012.52s - 1014.06s

I got to be nice as I can.

Speaker 41014.12s - 1015.3s

What would Taylor PERSON do in this situation?

Speaker 51016.06s - 1017.08s

She was going to calm down.

Speaker 41017.28s - 1018.14s

Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 51018.94s - 1019.46s

Oh, but I'm bummed.

Speaker 71019.58s - 1035.98s

A77730 DCS1 PRODUCT, would you have the grace that this grandmother did during a home invasion? Call us up, let's talk about it. Plus, if you go to Dana Cortez Show ORG on Instagram, I am posting this story. Thank you so much to KRQE ORG and Albuquerque for this incredible news story.

Speaker 01036.42s - 1038.48s

The Dana Cortez Show ORG podcast.

Speaker 71039.28s - 1057.8s

It's Teacher Appreciation Week and in food news. We've got a list of spots. You can get you some free or discounted food. Let's talk about it on your Tuesday. Hot here on the Dana PERSON-Cortez show. I'm Dana Cortez PERSON.DJ Automatic ORG. I go by Anthony A.k.a. Lill Spoon PERSON. All right, so workers are fighting against returning to work mandates. They don't want to go back into the office. Let me tell you something.

Speaker 01057.8s - 1067.56s

The National Labor Relations Board and the EEOC ORG say that mandates can discriminate against people with disabilities or that have health issues.

Speaker 81067.94s - 1073.76s

Now, employers argue that being in the office is necessary because it improves culture and productivity.

Speaker 01074.2s - 1084.82s

So the outcomes of these cases could be very critical for people who prefer to work from home. There's one man in particular who's heading this lawsuit and he says, I've been more productive at home than ever.

Speaker 51084.98s - 1088.14s

Yeah, he likes to stand his pajama pants. I get it. No, he has a heart condition.

Speaker 71088.38s - 1091.88s

Oh. A serious heart condition. There you go. I like to stay in his pajama pants. Yeah, but why not?

Speaker 51091.98s - 1097.48s

If you're producing, what does it matter? That's poor management. If you want someone to do what you

Speaker 71097.48s - 1102.46s

want them to do just because, but productivity is up, that's wrong. But I think when you come up

Speaker 51102.46s - 1108.78s

with new ideas and you just have a better work atmosphere when you're all together, like staring at somebody on Zoom PRODUCT is not, to me,

Speaker 71108.82s - 1113.08s

is not conducive to making like new ideas and having things really work. So it's going to be

Speaker 41113.08s - 1116.56s

interesting because there's like, you can argue each side and each side will make sense.

Speaker 51116.78s - 1121.28s

Because also like to the point is like if I have an A plus employee and they feel comfortable

Speaker 41121.28s - 1128.68s

working from home, they don't want to come in, I'm going to let them do what they want to do. But I do agree with like the hallway morale and making sure everyone's on the same page.

Speaker 71128.84s - 1145.26s

I think meeting in the middle somewhere, maybe coming in twice a week or something. But I will tell you now, if you are productive at home and you want to force people just to come in because that's how you feel. But the bath ain't methin, you don't have some pissed off employees. So we'll see how this works out. All right, food news, DJ Automatic PERSON.

Speaker 51145.5s - 1163.56s

It's Teacher Appreciation Week, and there's a bunch of deals out there for the teachers, as long as they have their school ID with them. So Waterberg ORG has got some deals. You can get free taquitos. There's stuff at TJ Friday, Sonic, Raising Cain's, Peter Piper, Golden Corral ORG, Buffalo Wild Wings ORG.I mean, all the big restaurants are doing stuff for teachers because we all care about the teachers.

Speaker 41163.68s - 1164.5s

It's great.

Speaker 51164.64s - 1170.26s

I know it's great. And something about taquitos just seems insulting. You can get a honey biscuit too over there.

Speaker 41170.34s - 1176.7s

There it is. There is. Honey biscuit now. And Raising Keynes is giving 10 teachers and all expenses paid summer vacation.

Speaker 71177s - 1194.54s

Can we get an all expense just paid for them six figures? What do we have to do? Why are they paid so poorly? The amount of teachers I see begging for more money, they got to do Uber ORG, they got a roommate, grown people. And these are the people we entrust with our children. They need more than a honey biscuit, right? They need more

Speaker 41194.54s - 1203.68s

than that. National Day, Anthony A. All right, let's go to start with National Cosmopolitan Day. This is the vodka, triple set, cranberry and lime drink invented in Minneapolis GPE.

Speaker 51204.1s - 1206.22s

Buy a teacher of Cos cosmopolitan this week.

Speaker 41206.36s - 1207.24s

They need one, trust me.

Speaker 51207.28s - 1207.76s

For real.

Speaker 41208.34s - 1217.38s

They had to put up with kids like me. And as automatically was saying earlier, it is National Teachers Appreciation Week, and therefore today is National Teachers Day.

Speaker 71218.1s - 1228.96s

Oh, did you have a favorite teacher when you were little? Can you remember something that a teacher told you that meant, I don't know, that changed your life? I remember Mr. Wilson PERSON told me that I was brilliant and I didn't have to worry about my handwriting

Speaker 81228.96s - 1233.02s

because I would always get in trouble because I was a sloppy, you know, I wrote real sloppily.

Speaker 61233.12s - 1237.1s

My brain moves faster than my hand. He's like, if anybody's focused on that, they're not a very good teacher.

Speaker 81237.32s - 1239.46s

I thought, oh, Mr. Wilson PERSON made me feel good.

Speaker 41239.98s - 1241.46s

I had in fourth grade, Ms. Stauffler PERSON.

Speaker 81241.54s - 1243.94s

She was really dope and she told me that I was a very good storyteller.

Speaker 41244.22s - 1245.5s

And that's kind of stayed with me ever since. That's great. My fourth grade teacher told me I was going to prison. grade, Ms. Dostafler PERSON. She was really dope, and she told me that was a very good storyteller. And that's kind of stayed with me ever since.

Speaker 71245.58s - 1246.22s

That's great.

Speaker 41246.32s - 1248.2s

My fourth grade teacher told me I was going to prison.

Speaker 51248.4s - 1249.18s

Okay, Automatic ORG.

Speaker 01250.08s - 1251.28s

She can have a taquito.

Speaker 81251.74s - 1253.82s

The Dana Cortez Show ORG podcast.

Speaker 01254.54s - 1258.82s

Your parents love you, but sometimes they can give you bad advice because of that love.

Speaker 51258.92s - 1259.5s

It's fear.

Speaker 01259.92s - 1260.38s

It's fear.

Speaker 71260.5s - 1261.62s

So myself, Dana Cortez PERSON.

Speaker 01261.68s - 1263.58s

I was talking to DJ Automatic and Anthony A. PERSON here.

Speaker 71263.96s - 1266.9s

And I thought about the time that I was ready to leave home.

Speaker 01266.96s - 1268.24s

Remember, I had a child when I was 15.

Speaker 71268.34s - 1283.7s

I have three beautiful daughters. My first daughter was born when I was only 15 years old. And I was ready to leave. And my mom said, don't move. It's too hard to live far away from family. Don't leave.My nana didn't want me to leave. My mom, nobody wanted me to move on. But it's because they were afraid for me.

Speaker 41283.82s - 1284.44s

Of course they were.

Speaker 61284.44s - 1289.06s

They didn't believe in me.. They didn't believe in me. Maybe they didn't believe in me. You got a 15 years old. You got a baby. Like, where are you going?

Speaker 41289.34s - 1290.82s

Yeah. How do you go?

Speaker 71290.82s - 1312.38s

Now do you look back on that advice now? Do you forgive him for that ill advice? Absolutely. They did it out of love. And that's what I wanted to discuss. We talked about Canelo Alvarez PERSON,boxer, great boxer. His dad gave him bad advice. Don't be emotional. Don't cry. And he said in the end, crying, gave him bad advice. Don't be emotional, don't cry. And he said in the end, crying, let him be a more intelligent fighter, a more, a better father, a better person.Oh, yeah.

Speaker 51312.38s - 1314.92s

Okay, so I just thought about bad advice that your parents give you.

Speaker 81315.14s - 1318.74s

That was my mom. She just was afraid for me. Now I move all the time. It's not even a big deal.

Speaker 51318.86s - 1329.02s

My dad told me to quit DJing ORG and get a real job, especially once I finished college, he was like, you know, musicians, and you're not even a real musician. They just end up as, uh, as couch surfers and

Speaker 71329.02s - 1332.78s

chasing a dream that's never going to be attained. You know, he actually had a state,

Speaker 11332.78s - 1337.38s

a state cop call me and asked me if I wanted to become a state cop. And I was like, me a cop.

Speaker 61337.38s - 1340.58s

Me a cop. That was the weirdest thing ever. Cops are listening right now laughing. And then,

Speaker 71340.58s - 1344.48s

and then when I shot that down, he was like, you know what? You know what you should do? You should become a

Speaker 61344.48s - 1345.02s

paralegal? And I was like, so you don't even think I can be a lawyer? You just want me to be a paralegal? And he was like, do you know what? You know what you should do? You should become a paralegal?

Speaker 71345.3s - 1347.2s

And I was like, so you don't even think I can be a lawyer?

Speaker 51347.3s - 1348.48s

You just want me to be a paralegal?

Speaker 61348.62s - 1350.9s

And he was like, well, you're going to have to go to more school if you want to do that.

Speaker 41351.2s - 1353.52s

He was afraid. Shout out to paralegals.

Speaker 51353.86s - 1366.6s

I mean, shout out to the paralegals. You'll be surprised how much paralegals are in jail once you get arrested. Everyone in there is a paralegal. Everyone in there has jail advice, dog. Everyone's like, this is what you're going to do. This is what's going to happen.So I actually can kind of see why he was like, you know what? You'd make a good paralegal, dog.

Speaker 71366.72s - 1367.88s

He was afraid for you automatically.

Speaker 41368.04s - 1376.6s

He didn't know any successful DJs in his lifetime, you know? And you've been able to do it. You've been able to finesse your way into doing what you love and making a living to it because you're a great DJ.

Speaker 51376.78s - 1380.4s

I don't know if I would call it a finesse. I would call it a lot of practice and a lot of hard work.

Speaker 41380.58s - 1381.14s

Exactly.

Speaker 71381.5s - 1384.86s

Yeah, but he did not miss when he said that a lot of DJs just sleep on couches.

Speaker 61385.64s - 1387.1s

I mean, he was kind of right about that.

Speaker 51387.64s - 1391.46s

For me, it was my grandma when she said, you're going to need to learn cursive writing.

Speaker 81391.96s - 1392.64s

Cursive handwriting.

Speaker 51392.92s - 1393.96s

Yeah, that was like, I was like, what?

Speaker 81393.98s - 1397.78s

And I was like, I would stress about that so much in elementary school about learning cursive

Speaker 51397.78s - 1399.04s

and having good cursive handwriting.

Speaker 81399.28s - 1401.08s

And now I'm just typing everything else.

Speaker 51401.08s - 1401.4s

So.

Speaker 41402.2s - 1407s

I think about the fact that we used to have to practice for hours and hours.

Speaker 81407s - 1407.38s

Yeah, dude.

Speaker 01407.6s - 1409.44s

I can't even remember the last time I wrote in cursive.

Speaker 61409.5s - 1410.3s

No, not at all.

Speaker 41410.42s - 1412.58s

Even when you sign, it's an electronic squiggle.

Speaker 51412.68s - 1413.76s

It's not even your name.

Speaker 61413.88s - 1415.66s

The person doesn't even, you don't even know what people are writing.

Speaker 51415.66s - 1419s

And now the tables have completely turned because now I'm telling my grandma she has to learn how to text.

Speaker 61420s - 1422.2s

Let me teach you how the world really is, grandma.

Speaker 41422.8s - 1425.12s
