Carmen shares the legend of the ghost bride of Patos and other legends from the Mexican state of Coahuila. Then, they end with spooky recs. Carmen's recommendation is the book Malas by Marcela Fuentes and Cristina recommended McFarland USA and El Norte (neither is spooky, but they are Latinx movies).

that's it. Okay, So today we are sharing legends from

20
00:01:20.319 --> 00:01:24.400
the third largest day in Mexico. Yes, no, my brain

21
00:01:24.439 --> 00:01:27.239
doesn't work right now. I can't guess. I thought you

22
00:01:27.239 --> 00:01:29.879
would know because you already said which state you I

23
00:01:29.920 --> 00:01:33.439
can't remember. We said Calle Mar Guahuila. No, we've already

24
00:01:33.519 --> 00:01:38.640
talked about Colima. We are talking about Guahuila today, okay, okay.

25
00:01:39.040 --> 00:01:42.239
And we've actually already shared one famous legend from there,

26
00:01:42.680 --> 00:01:45.200
which has been one of my favorite legends of all time.

27
00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:49.959
La Casaskankas. Oh my god, that was one of my favorites.

28
00:01:50.159 --> 00:01:54.359
I had a blast talking about Cassankas. I could not

29
00:01:54.519 --> 00:01:59.719
believe like how it earned its name. Yeah, yeah, like

30
00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:04.359
how audacious. So yeah, here are some more legends, and

31
00:02:04.400 --> 00:02:08.520
we have some classics here, classics. Okay, I'm ready, I'm ready.

32
00:02:09.280 --> 00:02:11.680
So the first legend we're gonna be talking about is

33
00:02:11.719 --> 00:02:16.039
the ghost Bride of Patos. I love a ghost bride story.

34
00:02:16.319 --> 00:02:20.919
One of my favorite stories kind of stories. Yes, yes,

35
00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:24.039
way back in the year of eighteen seventy three, there

36
00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:27.240
was a town and was now the state of Kuahila,

37
00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:31.120
which used to be called Patos. Present day it's the

38
00:02:31.159 --> 00:02:36.280
town of Tippela, about thirty miles west of the capital Saltillo.

39
00:02:36.639 --> 00:02:39.719
So back then, a young puppy love was brewing and

40
00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:42.800
a young soldier who belonged to the garrison commanded by

41
00:02:43.360 --> 00:02:47.520
Gunera Vitoriano Sebeta, asked the beautiful young woman he was

42
00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:50.840
in love with to marry him. After the proposal, the

43
00:02:50.840 --> 00:02:54.520
future bride lived through godparents, where she intended to remain

44
00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:58.280
until the day of the wedding. Apparently that was a ghostumedia.

45
00:02:58.319 --> 00:03:00.719
Back in the days, they would move out from the

46
00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:03.639
parents and lived with the godparents unsold the wedding. I

47
00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:09.000
didn't know that, That's what it said online. Interesting. The

48
00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:11.639
day before the wedding, a battle broke out between the

49
00:03:11.639 --> 00:03:14.759
federal army and the local militia, so the Garrison of

50
00:03:15.639 --> 00:03:19.680
Canada Victorian Osabella was called to quell the introduction against

51
00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:23.639
the federal army. The young soldier promises bred to be

52
00:03:23.800 --> 00:03:25.919
that he would be back in time for their nuptials.

53
00:03:26.719 --> 00:03:29.199
He said, Mimi at the chapel, because I'm coming straight

54
00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:33.280
here after the battle, and I'm just gonna guess how

55
00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:40.039
he didn't he did not. The next day, the right

56
00:03:40.080 --> 00:03:41.840
to be put on her wedding dress and made her

57
00:03:41.879 --> 00:03:45.280
way to the church of San Francisco Dasti's to wet

58
00:03:45.319 --> 00:03:48.639
her handsome soldier, and she waited there for him and

59
00:03:48.680 --> 00:03:54.439
she waited and waited and waited, waited. Yeah, she kept

60
00:03:54.439 --> 00:03:59.800
waiting until finally someone learned about what happened and told

61
00:03:59.800 --> 00:04:05.639
her that her room to be was killed in battle. Damn.

62
00:04:05.800 --> 00:04:09.800
That's sad. Yeah. But also, never trust a man in

63
00:04:09.919 --> 00:04:13.199
uniform because he might die in battle. He might die

64
00:04:13.199 --> 00:04:20.480
and never come back. Yeah. So yeah, the bride fell

65
00:04:20.519 --> 00:04:23.759
into the floor and chalk, and she never stood back

66
00:04:23.800 --> 00:04:27.920
up from the floor. She died there. No way, I

67
00:04:27.959 --> 00:04:30.720
don't know why I said it like that. And that's

68
00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:33.360
actually where she stayed. And actually she never got up.

69
00:04:33.879 --> 00:04:39.600
Actually she died right there. Wow. What she just died there?

70
00:04:41.759 --> 00:04:49.680
That's crazy. The sadness. Oh. Years later, it is said

71
00:04:49.720 --> 00:04:51.920
that the ghost of a woman wearing a white wedding

72
00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:55.240
dress can be seen wandering the streets, but her route

73
00:04:55.279 --> 00:04:58.759
mostly consists of leaving the church and heading south along

74
00:04:58.839 --> 00:05:02.079
Gaya the Candat's a bit. The ghost would make its

75
00:05:02.079 --> 00:05:05.480
way to the Godparents' home, and it got to the

76
00:05:05.480 --> 00:05:08.560
point where the godparents had to leave their house. Wow,

77
00:05:09.439 --> 00:05:12.560
because she showed up every day after her death. They

78
00:05:12.560 --> 00:05:14.240
were tired of it and they were like, we can't

79
00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:18.519
handle this. No. The home was abandoned for a long time,

80
00:05:18.600 --> 00:05:21.240
but eventually people not connected to the bride or the

81
00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:25.279
godparents moved in, and they also reported seeing the ghost bride.

82
00:05:27.120 --> 00:05:29.399
The ghost Bride continued to be seen well into the

83
00:05:29.480 --> 00:05:32.639
nineteen seventies, and the family who lived there who lived

84
00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:35.959
in the home then reported regularly seeing the ghost bride

85
00:05:36.079 --> 00:05:39.600
enter the house, walk around the patio, and disappear into

86
00:05:39.680 --> 00:05:43.199
a barn that was at the end of the patio. No,

87
00:05:43.399 --> 00:05:46.519
that's creepy, and you know, they didn't sign up for

88
00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:49.120
that when they purchased at home or rented that home

89
00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:51.959
or whatever it is they did. Yeah. I don't know

90
00:05:51.959 --> 00:05:54.040
if they knew or not, because I wouldn't have told

91
00:05:54.079 --> 00:05:55.920
them if I was that persent before trying to get

92
00:05:55.959 --> 00:05:57.920
rid of the house, you know, and it was abandoned

93
00:05:57.920 --> 00:06:00.759
for a long time. So right, Yeah, who knows what

94
00:06:00.879 --> 00:06:18.560
they knew? Yeah, Okay, Next we have another classic. Oh

95
00:06:18.680 --> 00:06:23.720
I love an Ali and if that ally involves Satan,

96
00:06:24.279 --> 00:06:28.959
I love it even more. In the seventeen hundreds, in

97
00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:32.759
the town of Santa Stevan de la la Scala, there

98
00:06:32.879 --> 00:06:35.879
was a wealthy six year old sixty year old man.

99
00:06:36.279 --> 00:06:39.839
I was like, wait, your wealthy six year old Wow,

100
00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:42.839
where can I get one of those. I want one

101
00:06:42.879 --> 00:06:45.959
of those? Can I adopt a wealthy six year old

102
00:06:46.879 --> 00:06:51.319
a wealthy sixty year old man named Don Juan de Solis.

103
00:06:52.160 --> 00:06:53.879
He was said to be from a family that was

104
00:06:53.920 --> 00:06:56.480
part of the minor nobility in Spain, so not the

105
00:06:56.519 --> 00:07:01.399
major nobility, but that minor nobility. Yeah, and he was

106
00:07:01.399 --> 00:07:04.120
married to a beautiful woman twenty years younger than him.

107
00:07:04.600 --> 00:07:09.839
Mmm so she was forty Okay, Yeah. They had an

108
00:07:09.839 --> 00:07:12.920
eighteen year old son who was away standing out a convent,

109
00:07:13.759 --> 00:07:16.439
and everyone in towned how hot he was and how

110
00:07:16.480 --> 00:07:18.759
smart he was. I don't know the son, yeah, the son,

111
00:07:19.079 --> 00:07:23.000
not the sixty year old Okay, no, but I mean assumingly,

112
00:07:23.040 --> 00:07:25.439
presumably he got his genes from him and the mom.

113
00:07:25.519 --> 00:07:28.360
So maybe they're also super hot and smart. I don't know,

114
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:32.600
just a family of hot smart people. Yeah, yeah, of

115
00:07:33.000 --> 00:07:40.000
Spanish mind. They had it all yeah until until no,

116
00:07:40.079 --> 00:07:42.360
everything was good. Everything was good. They were a happy

117
00:07:42.360 --> 00:07:51.800
family until I believed no psych Yeah until one day

118
00:07:52.079 --> 00:07:56.519
some random man named Blas Casadis stopped Don Juan on

119
00:07:56.560 --> 00:07:59.160
the street and told him that his wife was cheating

120
00:07:59.199 --> 00:08:02.879
on him. But the young man, oh and he was like,

121
00:08:02.879 --> 00:08:04.519
oh no, my this I'll bring you a prove in

122
00:08:04.560 --> 00:08:07.839
a few days. A few days later, last told don

123
00:08:07.920 --> 00:08:10.199
Juan that he saw a strange man were in a

124
00:08:10.319 --> 00:08:14.360
cape entering his home at midnight. Ominous. So he's like,

125
00:08:14.639 --> 00:08:16.240
if you want to catch him, then you need to

126
00:08:16.240 --> 00:08:19.519
be there at midnight and you'll see this cape wearing

127
00:08:19.519 --> 00:08:26.199
a fellow. Yeah, so don Juan started skimming. He was

128
00:08:26.240 --> 00:08:28.639
gimming the trap and he told his wife, Hey, I'm

129
00:08:28.680 --> 00:08:31.680
leaving town for a week. But on his way out

130
00:08:31.680 --> 00:08:35.720
of town, he circled back to town and really leave. Yeah,

131
00:08:35.799 --> 00:08:37.279
but well he left and then he came back. I

132
00:08:37.279 --> 00:08:40.240
don't know why he left. To make it to tell

133
00:08:40.279 --> 00:08:43.120
the story right, right, make her believe that he left. Yeah,

134
00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:46.559
he came back right away. So he came back just

135
00:08:46.600 --> 00:08:48.720
in time to be at front in the front of

136
00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:51.919
his house at midnight, and sure enough he saw a

137
00:08:51.919 --> 00:08:55.519
man or in a cape entering his home. Don Juan

138
00:08:55.759 --> 00:08:59.159
had a zero chill, so he stabbed a man. Oh

139
00:09:00.039 --> 00:09:04.159
unfortunately it was his son. Oh my god, Oh my

140
00:09:04.360 --> 00:09:08.399
fucking god. I was not expecting that. Yeah, you feel

141
00:09:08.440 --> 00:09:10.440
like it could have like maybe like made the guy

142
00:09:10.480 --> 00:09:13.080
turn around for Okay, who are you, why are you here?

143
00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:15.720
Why are you in my home. Why are you wearing

144
00:09:15.720 --> 00:09:20.480
a cape? Right? It's midnight. He went straight to stabbing,

145
00:09:20.639 --> 00:09:22.559
straight to stabbing. That's why I said he had a

146
00:09:22.679 --> 00:09:27.159
zero chill. Yeah, yeah, mm hmm, my god. Yeah. It

147
00:09:27.200 --> 00:09:29.320
turned out that his son was sneaking out of the

148
00:09:29.320 --> 00:09:31.639
convent to see a girl he liked, and then he

149
00:09:31.639 --> 00:09:33.360
would come home at night. I don't know why he

150
00:09:33.360 --> 00:09:35.120
wouldn't go back to the convent, but he wouldn't go

151
00:09:35.159 --> 00:09:37.000
back home medmud night. Maybe it was closer, I don't know.

152
00:09:38.919 --> 00:09:42.639
Sounds kind of like a bad plan on the son's part. Yeah,

153
00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:45.679
didn't he know how stab happy his dad is? I

154
00:09:45.720 --> 00:09:48.159
don't know, right, how like zero chill the dad had?

155
00:09:48.240 --> 00:09:51.600
Mm hmmm yeah, and you would think Don Juan was

156
00:09:51.720 --> 00:09:54.080
arrested and he was put on trial for a murder.

157
00:09:54.879 --> 00:09:57.360
And during the trial it was discovered that there was

158
00:09:57.360 --> 00:09:59.919
no one with the name of Blast Cassidys in town

159
00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:06.000
or in any surrounding towns. Oh, that's a strange name too,

160
00:10:06.080 --> 00:10:09.080
so yeah Blast, what name is blasts? Blasts could have

161
00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:13.039
picked a different name and made up, right, Yeah, So

162
00:10:13.159 --> 00:10:16.080
the name could have been made up or could have

163
00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:21.879
never existed because it was a devil tricky Blast was

164
00:10:21.919 --> 00:10:24.679
actually Satanas and that's why he played that name because

165
00:10:24.679 --> 00:10:34.200
the rhymes yeah class last where was I? So? Yeah,

166
00:10:34.519 --> 00:10:36.759
it could have been the devil tricking Juan into killing

167
00:10:36.759 --> 00:10:40.039
his own son for fun. Yeah, just for fun, just

168
00:10:40.080 --> 00:10:42.960
you know, double things, because it's what he does. Yeah,

169
00:10:43.159 --> 00:10:50.440
trick you Quan ended up being pardoned, but heavy, Yeah,

170
00:10:50.480 --> 00:10:57.919
because it was the devil, It wasn't him, Okay, obviously, okay, right,

171
00:10:57.960 --> 00:11:04.120
you're right. So he ended up being pardoned but heavy

172
00:11:04.240 --> 00:11:06.639
with what he had done. He couldn't live with himself

173
00:11:06.720 --> 00:11:12.559
and he died of despair. Okay, well, yeah, probably deserves

174
00:11:12.559 --> 00:11:15.919
that for killing his son. I don't know, I mean

175
00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:21.000
legally not now do the eyes of the law. He

176
00:11:21.159 --> 00:11:25.559
was his pardon Now. Where the son was killed is

177
00:11:25.600 --> 00:11:28.759
known as Devil's Alley, and it is said that when

178
00:11:28.759 --> 00:11:31.600
a person walks through there, they get a sudden case

179
00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:36.080
of the chills and a whiff of sulfur ooh, which

180
00:11:36.120 --> 00:11:38.200
smells horrible. I assume, I don't know. They say it

181
00:11:38.240 --> 00:11:42.240
smells like ryan eggs. Luckily I've never smelled it. I've

182
00:11:42.240 --> 00:11:56.000
heard the same. Okay. Next we have the legend of Lataea. Ooh, okay,

183
00:11:56.279 --> 00:12:00.519
I love. I'm assuming this involves high heels, Yes, all right,

184
00:12:00.559 --> 00:12:03.519
and I love that too. It is said that there

185
00:12:03.559 --> 00:12:05.879
was once a young woman who lived on the streets

186
00:12:05.879 --> 00:12:09.799
of Bravo and Aguadrees in Tartigo, although back then the

187
00:12:09.799 --> 00:12:14.519
streets were called Kaye del Santo and Kayl. She took

188
00:12:14.519 --> 00:12:17.039
care of her sick mom during the day, but her

189
00:12:17.080 --> 00:12:21.519
mom's health just got worse and worse. The young woman cleaned, cooked,

190
00:12:21.759 --> 00:12:24.080
she did everything around the house along with caring for

191
00:12:24.120 --> 00:12:27.600
her mom. During the day, she was very responsible, but

192
00:12:27.720 --> 00:12:30.360
at night, while her mother slept, she would get ready,

193
00:12:30.480 --> 00:12:34.120
do her makeup, put on her cuted dresses and her taconas,

194
00:12:34.120 --> 00:12:36.960
and go out. Because it was pretty late, all the

195
00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:41.200
neighbors could hear her heels trotting down the street, earning

196
00:12:41.240 --> 00:12:47.440
her a nickname that stayed with her forever, La Taka. Okay.

197
00:12:47.600 --> 00:12:50.240
The neighbors even started to speculate that the young woman

198
00:12:50.360 --> 00:12:54.519
was meeting up Guruna Mante every night. Oh. They also

199
00:12:54.600 --> 00:12:58.120
rumored that she didn't actually take good care of her mom.

200
00:12:58.559 --> 00:13:00.000
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know the truth.

201
00:13:00.120 --> 00:13:04.279
Oh okay. So the young woman would go out every

202
00:13:04.360 --> 00:13:07.879
night until one night when everything came to an end.

203
00:13:09.159 --> 00:13:14.200
The young woman was coming back home. I know what

204
00:13:14.200 --> 00:13:21.120
she was doing, but she was out. Yeah. When she

205
00:13:21.159 --> 00:13:24.279
came back that night, she found the body of her

206
00:13:24.360 --> 00:13:28.000
dead mom. Her mom had died while she was out,

207
00:13:29.519 --> 00:13:32.840
and the young woman was consumed with guilt, grief and

208
00:13:32.879 --> 00:13:37.200
the pain. She blamed herself and she took her own life.

209
00:13:37.639 --> 00:13:40.000
She ran out to the street and threw herself onto

210
00:13:40.039 --> 00:13:43.960
the first car that she saw, although a different version

211
00:13:44.600 --> 00:13:47.000
says that the young woman was so consumed with guilt

212
00:13:47.080 --> 00:13:49.399
that she never left the house again until she died

213
00:13:49.440 --> 00:13:55.000
from sadness. Oh, either way, she died and since then

214
00:13:55.159 --> 00:13:57.919
hers can still be heard on the streets of Quaidas

215
00:13:57.960 --> 00:14:01.039
and Bravo. And it is said that you follow the steps,

216
00:14:01.120 --> 00:14:04.480
you will see l and suffer a similar fate to hers.

217
00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:08.360
So just don't follow the steps. Don't follow the steps. Okay.

218
00:14:08.799 --> 00:14:10.840
If you take anything from this episode is that you

219
00:14:10.879 --> 00:14:13.519
do not follow the steps of when you hear them

220
00:14:14.480 --> 00:14:18.440
in Sartigo on what is and what was it? The

221
00:14:18.440 --> 00:14:24.679
other street? Bravo? Okay, And next we're talking about witch town.

222
00:14:24.919 --> 00:14:32.120
About a witch town. Oh, lave is Naga. It is

223
00:14:32.120 --> 00:14:35.120
a small town. I guess maybe you could say, uh,

224
00:14:36.639 --> 00:14:46.639
what could they call it? Municipal municipality, Yeah, of Artiaga Kaila,

225
00:14:47.440 --> 00:14:49.879
so it's called laves Naga. It's tiny, only like four

226
00:14:49.919 --> 00:14:53.759
hundred people in there. So okay. So the town already

227
00:14:53.799 --> 00:14:57.679
had a reputation of being inhabited by witches. But in

228
00:14:57.720 --> 00:15:00.840
the sixties a rumor spread that the small town of

229
00:15:00.960 --> 00:15:04.720
La Biznaga was inhabited by witches after some villagers. Some

230
00:15:04.840 --> 00:15:07.759
villagers reported scene which is feasting on birds and then

231
00:15:07.799 --> 00:15:12.080
transforming into the birds. Oh h. And the townspeople also

232
00:15:12.080 --> 00:15:15.240
said the witches turned into snakes and panthers, that their

233
00:15:15.240 --> 00:15:18.360
faces could be seen in the flames of campfires, and

234
00:15:18.399 --> 00:15:21.679
that they use the branches of Viznaga trees as their transportation.

235
00:15:23.399 --> 00:15:28.039
Just which shit, Yeah, you know, typical witch shit. But

236
00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:32.679
the rumors of witches actually go back way further than

237
00:15:32.720 --> 00:15:39.200
that into the pre colonial times and during the Inquisition,

238
00:15:39.559 --> 00:15:43.000
La Biznaga had the highest numbers of witches that were persecuted.

239
00:15:45.799 --> 00:15:53.399
Oh really, according to records Okay, in an article yes, yes,

240
00:15:54.440 --> 00:15:57.600
present day, the presence of witches is no longer a

241
00:15:57.639 --> 00:16:00.679
simple rumor. It's what the town is known for, and

242
00:16:00.879 --> 00:16:04.639
witches they're out and proud. Some of them, like Marta Molina,

243
00:16:04.720 --> 00:16:10.240
are even popular on Il TikTok. Hmm, I gotta follow her. Yeah.

244
00:16:10.240 --> 00:16:13.039
And then it said that Martha descends from one of

245
00:16:13.039 --> 00:16:18.120
the witches from the sixties, Nativida. Wow, just a line

246
00:16:18.120 --> 00:16:22.480
of witches. And it said that back in the sixties,

247
00:16:22.639 --> 00:16:26.480
when Natividad was an active witch, that there was a

248
00:16:26.480 --> 00:16:30.200
battle between the dark light and but sorry, between the

249
00:16:30.279 --> 00:16:35.440
dark and the light forces of witchcraft. Oh what side

250
00:16:35.519 --> 00:16:38.159
was native? I don't know what side she was on,

251
00:16:38.360 --> 00:16:43.000
but white witchcraft or the light witchcraft one? Okay. Yeah,

252
00:16:43.039 --> 00:16:47.600
So nowadays the witches of Lawisanga are kind of like

253
00:16:47.679 --> 00:16:52.559
a kintu guranderas. But yeah, back when the battle was

254
00:16:52.600 --> 00:16:55.120
going on, the townspeople were caught in the middle of

255
00:16:55.279 --> 00:16:58.600
the battling witches, and those who chose sides ended up

256
00:16:58.720 --> 00:17:04.119
cursed and plagued with misfortune. Yeah, some of them died,

257
00:17:04.240 --> 00:17:07.880
some of them lost their money. The woman couldn't have children,

258
00:17:08.119 --> 00:17:12.240
you know things like that. Wow, that's wild. Yeah. And

259
00:17:12.279 --> 00:17:15.319
the graveyard was covered in amulets and artifacts that were

260
00:17:15.400 --> 00:17:18.759
used to cast and counteracts bells. It became like a

261
00:17:18.799 --> 00:17:24.359
battleground for the witches. But yeah, white witchcraft. Ultimately one out,

262
00:17:24.960 --> 00:17:28.319
but there is still one witch practicing dark magic in Nauisnaga.

263
00:17:28.640 --> 00:17:33.839
It's Martha oh Son. The I was probably on the

264
00:17:34.759 --> 00:17:38.279
dark side of witchcraft. Then who knows? She could have

265
00:17:38.319 --> 00:17:41.400
turned against her family. True, you know what, You're right,

266
00:17:41.640 --> 00:17:44.160
You're right. She's like, you know what, this isn't fun? Yeah,

267
00:17:44.319 --> 00:17:47.519
turning to the dark side. According to Martha, she says

268
00:17:47.599 --> 00:17:52.759
light magic gets no results. Oh but she promises, I've

269
00:17:52.759 --> 00:17:56.680
heard that about light magic. She promises she only uses

270
00:17:56.720 --> 00:18:05.640
her dark magic for healing and not for cursing. Fascinating. Okay, okay, okay, Martha. Yeah,

271
00:18:05.680 --> 00:18:08.519
that was the witch town Labisanga. Well, sorry, it's just

272
00:18:08.519 --> 00:18:13.039
said it wrong Biznaga. Next we're talking about Larsona, the

273
00:18:13.440 --> 00:18:18.799
dmos Arispe, which is in Taltio. Oh, Santio. Yeah, so

274
00:18:20.599 --> 00:18:25.279
in Lasona there is a cemetery that haunted ooh, it's

275
00:18:25.319 --> 00:18:28.559
the San Nicolas Tolentino Cemetery. It was built in the

276
00:18:28.599 --> 00:18:33.319
eighteen seventies. There lay the bodies of many young girls

277
00:18:33.319 --> 00:18:37.079
and boys, some that have been buried in the cemetery

278
00:18:37.119 --> 00:18:39.240
since it was first built, and some even before that.

279
00:18:40.240 --> 00:18:43.720
Because supposedly there was an area with humid remains found

280
00:18:43.920 --> 00:18:48.400
when construction of the cemetery began. Oh, was it already

281
00:18:48.440 --> 00:18:53.599
been used as a cemetery. Yeah, And rather than wales

282
00:18:53.640 --> 00:18:55.920
of despair, it is said that one can hear the

283
00:18:56.000 --> 00:19:00.480
laughter and singing of children that sounds kind of happy. Yeah,

284
00:19:00.519 --> 00:19:03.559
so it's like they're playing or something like that. Yeah.

285
00:19:03.640 --> 00:19:06.720
I tried to find like specific ghosts of children that

286
00:19:06.720 --> 00:19:08.480
can be seen there, but I didn't find anything. I

287
00:19:08.519 --> 00:19:11.680
only found like some tragic debts of the children that

288
00:19:11.759 --> 00:19:14.680
are buried there. And maybe it's there goes, maybe it's not.

289
00:19:15.599 --> 00:19:20.480
Like one of them was riding a horse with his

290
00:19:20.519 --> 00:19:23.480
brother and then he fell off the horse and his

291
00:19:23.599 --> 00:19:26.319
face was peeled off because he was dragging along there.

292
00:19:26.880 --> 00:19:31.519
The horse was dragging him. Oh my god. Okay, I thought,

293
00:19:32.240 --> 00:19:33.880
I thought this is going to be like he fell

294
00:19:33.920 --> 00:19:36.079
and hit his head on a rock. No, he died,

295
00:19:36.160 --> 00:19:39.599
but dragged and his face pilling's that's what it said.

296
00:19:40.079 --> 00:19:43.440
That's terrible. And the other one is a pair of

297
00:19:43.519 --> 00:19:46.839
siblings that the mom stepped out of the house to

298
00:19:46.880 --> 00:19:49.640
do I don't know what, and then when she was gone,

299
00:19:49.640 --> 00:19:51.920
they started playing with matches and they burned the house

300
00:19:51.960 --> 00:19:55.160
down and they died. Oh my god. Yeah. Wow, those

301
00:19:55.160 --> 00:19:59.599
were the stories I found, but like no specific stories

302
00:19:59.599 --> 00:20:07.480
of ghosts from there. Yeah. Also in Ramos Arispe, they

303
00:20:07.480 --> 00:20:13.640
say that La Senda, Lacienda de Santa Mariandro Sadio is haunted. Oh.

304
00:20:13.920 --> 00:20:16.640
According to a legend, it is haunted by the indigenous

305
00:20:16.640 --> 00:20:20.079
spirits of the people who lived in the area before colonization,

306
00:20:21.119 --> 00:20:24.200
and their spirits haunt the Assenda looking for revenge for

307
00:20:24.240 --> 00:20:28.200
being pushed out of their land. The Assenda was founded

308
00:20:28.240 --> 00:20:33.559
in sixteen seventy four after Captain Francisco de Elisondo and

309
00:20:33.839 --> 00:20:45.160
Franciscan Frey Frey. Yeah, okay, Fray Juan Laios conquered quote

310
00:20:45.160 --> 00:20:50.000
conquered yeah quote colonize the region and they pushed the

311
00:20:50.079 --> 00:20:55.519
Guahi Decos from their lands, although the Decos had also

312
00:20:55.559 --> 00:20:57.799
been facing attacks from the Apaches, so they were like

313
00:20:57.839 --> 00:21:00.920
getting it from both sides, both sides. Yeah, damn, it

314
00:21:00.920 --> 00:21:04.640
didn't mean that to Sendordy even did no come out

315
00:21:04.640 --> 00:21:10.920
and get Okay, I'm just clarifying. It is also said

316
00:21:11.359 --> 00:21:16.119
that there's a treasure. Of course in Acienda, a hunted

317
00:21:16.680 --> 00:21:19.960
has to have tales and rumors of a treasure, yes,

318
00:21:20.039 --> 00:21:24.359
within it. Yeah, a treasure of gold and jewelry hidden

319
00:21:24.480 --> 00:21:28.240
deep in the ruins of the assenda, supposedly buried thereby

320
00:21:28.359 --> 00:21:31.160
Aciendalos who didn't want their riches in the hands of

321
00:21:31.200 --> 00:21:35.400
their enemies. Many have tried to find the treasure, but

322
00:21:35.519 --> 00:21:40.839
none have come out alive, of course, m hm, because

323
00:21:40.839 --> 00:21:49.119
something malevolent guards the treasure, can lean. Yeah, the devil,

324
00:21:49.319 --> 00:21:55.160
he's yes, he's dressed very fancily, very fancy. I don't

325
00:21:55.160 --> 00:21:57.680
know you say that, how do you say? Yeah? So

326
00:21:58.000 --> 00:22:02.039
a fancy, elegantly dry Katherine, a gentleman, if you will.

327
00:22:03.160 --> 00:22:06.200
But according to the elders of the town, the Katine

328
00:22:06.240 --> 00:22:09.839
is no regular ghost, because he's saying himself like you guess,

329
00:22:09.880 --> 00:22:13.359
of course. Yeah. And whenever there's a Katherine, someone very

330
00:22:13.400 --> 00:22:17.119
well dressed in like a town or nacienda, a church,

331
00:22:18.039 --> 00:22:20.480
that's the devil. Come on, yeah, he's just there to

332
00:22:20.519 --> 00:22:24.720
trick people. When he does. It is said that the

333
00:22:24.960 --> 00:22:29.599
Katharine appears around midnight, midnight, okay, and he walks among

334
00:22:29.640 --> 00:22:31.720
the ruins of the essenda, and you can hear the

335
00:22:31.759 --> 00:22:36.599
sound of his baston as it hits the ground. And

336
00:22:36.640 --> 00:22:38.960
that's all I have for Yeah. Wait, and is that

337
00:22:39.079 --> 00:22:42.920
the the same ad yes, this is in the Sorry

338
00:22:43.119 --> 00:22:49.279
I literally said, I said again, I'm sick. Okay, no, no,

339
00:22:49.319 --> 00:22:52.519
my night, No, my brain is not working, okay, okay,

340
00:22:52.599 --> 00:22:57.039
well yeah, it's thank you for answering that you're welcome

341
00:22:58.400 --> 00:23:02.200
and U and you were saying that's all I have, okay.

342
00:23:02.319 --> 00:23:04.559
I just already finished saying that's all you have? Okay,

343
00:23:05.079 --> 00:23:07.680
And yeah, normally we would have a true crime piece

344
00:23:07.720 --> 00:23:11.400
to go with this state that we have done. But

345
00:23:12.079 --> 00:23:15.599
I have been sick and I have done nothing. I

346
00:23:15.599 --> 00:23:18.960
haven't done any school work. I haven't done anything but

347
00:23:19.079 --> 00:23:24.920
sleep and hydrate and blow my nose. I did binge

348
00:23:24.920 --> 00:23:28.440
watch Running Points while I was sick, though, so oh

349
00:23:28.480 --> 00:23:31.680
I just started it yesterday. It's very fun. I really

350
00:23:31.720 --> 00:23:42.319
liked it. Well. On that note, do you have any

351
00:23:42.359 --> 00:23:50.839
spooky recommendations? Do I? Hmm hmmm, let me check what

352
00:23:50.960 --> 00:23:55.920
I have read? I don't remember. I feel like now

353
00:23:55.920 --> 00:23:59.279
it's harder to remember that we're every other week. Yeah

354
00:23:59.319 --> 00:24:04.319
you said that last time. Oh, I don't remember what

355
00:24:04.400 --> 00:24:08.599
I recommend him last time. Oh the zombie book. Huh, yes,

356
00:24:08.680 --> 00:24:12.079
yeah it was a zombie book. I just listened to

357
00:24:12.519 --> 00:24:16.519
Malas by Marzla Fuentez, and I thought it was going

358
00:24:16.599 --> 00:24:19.680
to be more witchy than it was because let me well,

359
00:24:19.799 --> 00:24:21.839
let me read you the description real quick. I haven't

360
00:24:21.839 --> 00:24:25.960
heard of this book. Malass Oh yeah, called Malass. In

361
00:24:26.039 --> 00:24:28.599
nineteen pfty one, a mysterious ald women confronts Pilad I

362
00:24:28.680 --> 00:24:31.680
hid It in the small border town of La Sienega, Texas.

363
00:24:32.119 --> 00:24:34.599
The old woman is sure Bilad so told her husband,

364
00:24:34.599 --> 00:24:37.240
and in the heated outburst, leads a curse on Bilad

365
00:24:37.319 --> 00:24:40.480
in her family. More than forty years later, Lulu Mugnos

366
00:24:40.680 --> 00:24:43.799
is doajing chaos that I returned, her trouble father's moods,

367
00:24:44.000 --> 00:24:46.039
his rules, her secret life as a singer in a

368
00:24:46.079 --> 00:24:49.519
punk band, but most of all, her upcoming kissena. When

369
00:24:49.559 --> 00:24:52.920
her beloved grandmother passes away, Lulu finds herself drawn to

370
00:24:52.960 --> 00:24:55.799
the glamorous stranger who crashed the funeral and who lives

371
00:24:55.799 --> 00:24:59.240
alone and shunned at the on the edge of town. Pilad.

372
00:25:00.160 --> 00:25:03.440
They're unexpected. Kinship picks at the secrets of Lulu's family's

373
00:25:03.480 --> 00:25:06.720
past as the Signeta looms, and we move between these

374
00:25:06.759 --> 00:25:11.519
two strong, ir irrascible. What does that word? Female voices?

375
00:25:11.680 --> 00:25:14.240
One woman must make peace with the past, and one

376
00:25:14.240 --> 00:25:18.480
girl pushes to embrace her future. Rich with cinematic details

377
00:25:18.480 --> 00:25:21.519
from dusty rodeos to the excitement of a Selena concert

378
00:25:22.079 --> 00:25:26.480
and the comfort of conjunto ballads played at family gatherings,

379
00:25:26.839 --> 00:25:29.960
this memorable debut is a love letter to the techno

380
00:25:30.000 --> 00:25:32.839
culture and community that sustainable to these women as they

381
00:25:32.880 --> 00:25:35.599
discover what family means. And yes, it was all of that.

382
00:25:35.680 --> 00:25:39.119
I really sound No, it was, And the audiobook is

383
00:25:39.119 --> 00:25:41.960
really cool because it was. You know how, sometimes there's

384
00:25:42.000 --> 00:25:44.400
different timelines going on. Sometimes it's hard to follow with

385
00:25:44.440 --> 00:25:47.920
an audiobook, but this one, because there's two different characters,

386
00:25:47.960 --> 00:25:49.759
there's like a different I don't know if it's the same.

387
00:25:50.279 --> 00:25:53.200
It doesn't say there's no there is. There's two narrators,

388
00:25:53.880 --> 00:25:57.200
Christina Villa and Via Barian. I don't know which one

389
00:25:57.359 --> 00:25:59.920
voices who, but yeah, it's a different one for Pila

390
00:26:00.200 --> 00:26:02.119
and then a different one for Lulu, and they sound

391
00:26:02.200 --> 00:26:06.200
very different. So that was cool also to hear. Made

392
00:26:06.200 --> 00:26:09.400
it easy to follow. But yeah, you get like old

393
00:26:09.400 --> 00:26:13.759
school Texas and yeah, it was just so Mexican and Totkano.

394
00:26:14.519 --> 00:26:17.279
That sounds fun. Yeah, but yeah, I thought because of

395
00:26:17.319 --> 00:26:19.039
the description, I thought it was going to be a

396
00:26:19.079 --> 00:26:21.359
little bit more witchy than it was, and it wasn't

397
00:26:21.400 --> 00:26:28.079
really but it was still really good. Okay, Okay, yeah,

398
00:26:28.240 --> 00:26:30.160
I think I will check it out. I think you

399
00:26:30.200 --> 00:26:45.519
would like it. I think so. No, no, now, okay,

400
00:26:46.039 --> 00:26:51.880
because I haven't read it, I know, but I'm reading

401
00:26:51.920 --> 00:27:00.160
this one right now, Okay, I'll uh. I So, well,

402
00:27:01.039 --> 00:27:03.720
I'm almost done. I'm like, what did it say, like

403
00:27:03.880 --> 00:27:06.519
eighty percent done with the other book that was reading

404
00:27:07.759 --> 00:27:12.799
about Mexican immigration. Yeah, I'm like almost done with it.

405
00:27:12.880 --> 00:27:16.519
I have I'm almost done with the second to last chapter.

406
00:27:16.519 --> 00:27:18.599
I have like two pages left and then the last chapter.

407
00:27:19.680 --> 00:27:21.559
So I'm like in the middle of a lot right now.

408
00:27:21.640 --> 00:27:23.759
But I'll see what I do. I'll make it happen.

409
00:27:25.319 --> 00:27:30.119
Let's see. Do I have a spooky recommendation? Well, like

410
00:27:30.119 --> 00:27:32.200
I said, I loved Running Points, so it was very funny.

411
00:27:32.839 --> 00:27:40.400
That's not sweaky. That's funny. Another not speaky recommendation. But

412
00:27:40.759 --> 00:27:43.000
my TikTok for you page was giving me a bunch

413
00:27:43.039 --> 00:27:47.799
of edits of this movie called McFarlane Usa. Yeah, because

414
00:27:47.839 --> 00:27:50.640
I sent it to you. I had already seen it, like, yeah,

415
00:27:51.000 --> 00:27:56.160
told me. Okay, she didn't say that it was me.

416
00:27:56.400 --> 00:28:00.559
It was all me. Okay, whatever, I had already's seen

417
00:28:00.720 --> 00:28:04.799
a couple, but whatever. Anyway, Carmen sent me, thank you.

418
00:28:05.000 --> 00:28:10.680
It's all I wanted. But I had already seen a couple. Okay,

419
00:28:11.240 --> 00:28:15.400
Oh my god, I'm sick to laugh this much. It hurts.

420
00:28:15.519 --> 00:28:20.519
Okay and jail, welcome my head. Okay, I'll stop being

421
00:28:21.119 --> 00:28:25.960
laugh this much. Okay. Anyway, and yeah, I was like,

422
00:28:26.000 --> 00:28:27.680
I can't believe I have I had it seen this

423
00:28:27.759 --> 00:28:30.440
movie Mick came out in twenty fifteen. I want to

424
00:28:30.440 --> 00:28:33.359
say I remember seeing commercials for it or the trailer

425
00:28:33.519 --> 00:28:35.359
back in the day, but I never went to watch it.

426
00:28:35.400 --> 00:28:38.480
For some reason, I don't remember seeing anything about it.

427
00:28:38.519 --> 00:28:41.160
But anyway, mcfarlane'll say it's like my kind of white

428
00:28:41.200 --> 00:28:43.880
Savor movie, because I'm sorry to say, but sometimes I

429
00:28:43.880 --> 00:28:47.720
do love a white Savor movie. So this coach his

430
00:28:47.799 --> 00:28:49.839
last name is literally white, and nic call him blanco.

431
00:28:50.359 --> 00:28:52.759
Oh my god, I didn't relate that. Yeah, his last

432
00:28:52.799 --> 00:28:56.799
name is white, and he gets kicked out of coaching. Well,

433
00:28:56.839 --> 00:28:58.559
he gets kicked out of a lot of coaching jobs

434
00:28:58.559 --> 00:29:01.519
because of his like angerish Oh but like he threw

435
00:29:01.559 --> 00:29:04.759
a shoe at a at a spoiled word kid in

436
00:29:04.759 --> 00:29:07.160
the Midwest or something. It sounds like he deserved it

437
00:29:08.119 --> 00:29:12.559
to say, honestly, uh, And so he the only job

438
00:29:12.599 --> 00:29:16.480
we can find is in McFarland, California, which is in

439
00:29:16.519 --> 00:29:20.400
the Central Valley, deep in the central Valley, in the

440
00:29:20.440 --> 00:29:24.200
central Valley. Not like Modesto, No we're not. We're not

441
00:29:24.240 --> 00:29:27.680
talking Modesto. We are talking or driving down to La

442
00:29:27.960 --> 00:29:30.119
and all the little towns you see. It's one of

443
00:29:30.160 --> 00:29:36.799
those yes. And so he gets sent there and immediately

444
00:29:36.839 --> 00:29:38.640
clashes with like the coach he's supposed to be the

445
00:29:38.680 --> 00:29:41.440
assistant football coach, and he immediately clashes with the coach.

446
00:29:41.759 --> 00:29:45.559
But then he gets inspired to start a track not track,

447
00:29:45.599 --> 00:29:48.319
but cross country a team. And this is the school's

448
00:29:48.359 --> 00:29:51.960
first cross country team. And he sees these kids and

449
00:29:52.079 --> 00:29:54.720
are like they work as pickers. They they wake up

450
00:29:54.759 --> 00:29:58.799
early as before school, they pick you know, whatever is

451
00:29:58.839 --> 00:30:01.279
in season. Then they go school, then they run back

452
00:30:01.319 --> 00:30:03.119
to the field to get their as quick as possible

453
00:30:03.200 --> 00:30:06.400
to continue picking because it's they need the money. They like,

454
00:30:06.440 --> 00:30:08.440
you know, it's their job to help their families. And

455
00:30:08.480 --> 00:30:10.839
he sees them running and he's like, these kids can

456
00:30:11.000 --> 00:30:13.480
run forever, Like, how do we not have a cross

457
00:30:13.480 --> 00:30:15.880
country team? And so he, after like a bunch of convincing,

458
00:30:15.960 --> 00:30:18.920
he convinces seven of them to join the team, and

459
00:30:18.920 --> 00:30:20.599
then he's just training them and then we just it's

460
00:30:20.720 --> 00:30:24.400
just an inspirational movie because I love the movies. No,

461
00:30:24.599 --> 00:30:29.319
I'm I was serious. I wanted to cry and I did. Oh,

462
00:30:29.359 --> 00:30:32.039
there's this part because there's this kid who's bigger. There's

463
00:30:32.079 --> 00:30:34.480
three brothers, they're the Diaz brothers, and there's one of

464
00:30:34.519 --> 00:30:37.240
them who is bigger than the rest. His name is

465
00:30:37.279 --> 00:30:39.839
Danny Diaz, and you know from the beginning he tells

466
00:30:39.880 --> 00:30:43.279
them like you're you're gonna gonna be slower than the

467
00:30:43.279 --> 00:30:45.519
rest of them because they're You're you're bigger, right, But

468
00:30:45.519 --> 00:30:48.119
that's not a bad thing. You're like the uh what

469
00:30:48.160 --> 00:30:51.480
it is? They call him the anchor. You're the anchor

470
00:30:51.480 --> 00:30:56.279
of the team. And so there's finally they're at the end.

471
00:30:56.279 --> 00:30:58.519
They get to like the championship. Not to spoil but

472
00:30:58.559 --> 00:31:00.519
this is based on your story, Like yeah, yeah, I

473
00:31:00.559 --> 00:31:02.440
mean I think it's it came on twenty fifteen. I

474
00:31:02.480 --> 00:31:06.319
think after a certain time, spoilers are okay. Yeah, So

475
00:31:06.359 --> 00:31:09.319
they get to the championship and one of the kids

476
00:31:09.319 --> 00:31:12.319
who's like faster already he's uh, he's running too fast.

477
00:31:12.359 --> 00:31:14.640
You have to pace yourself for these yeah, yeah, yeah,

478
00:31:14.680 --> 00:31:17.759
but he's like they see him running and he passes them.

479
00:31:17.799 --> 00:31:20.599
He's like what everyone is like, what is Jose doing?

480
00:31:20.640 --> 00:31:23.079
He can't run this fast? Like he's going to tire

481
00:31:23.119 --> 00:31:26.400
himself out? Yes, and so he does. And so because

482
00:31:26.440 --> 00:31:29.400
the way cross country works, which I didn't know, it's like, well, no,

483
00:31:29.480 --> 00:31:32.359
it's too much explained. I already forgot everything. But basically,

484
00:31:32.440 --> 00:31:34.799
like you have to run at your normal pace and

485
00:31:34.880 --> 00:31:38.039
beat like the other people. But if you're like way behind,

486
00:31:38.079 --> 00:31:40.279
your team doesn't get that point or whatever some show

487
00:31:40.359 --> 00:31:42.359
like that. Don't quote me, but some shit like that.

488
00:31:42.920 --> 00:31:45.400
Any cross country experts out there, let us know. You

489
00:31:45.400 --> 00:31:47.039
know what, if only Paul was here because he did

490
00:31:47.039 --> 00:31:49.599
a cross country, night's going he did a cross country,

491
00:31:49.599 --> 00:31:51.640
but he is not here right now. He's not working. Okay, well,

492
00:31:51.680 --> 00:31:54.799
you know you should watch this movie with him. Yeah,

493
00:31:54.880 --> 00:31:57.519
maybe he'll like it, I think so. I don't know

494
00:31:57.519 --> 00:31:59.279
how anyone could not like this movie. It's just a

495
00:31:59.279 --> 00:32:02.480
heartfelt movie. Anyway. So they're in the championship. That kid

496
00:32:02.519 --> 00:32:05.039
is running too fast. He ends up burning out. He's

497
00:32:05.079 --> 00:32:07.759
too slow and he comes in way after his normal time,

498
00:32:08.319 --> 00:32:10.880
and so he's like they can't rely on him for

499
00:32:10.960 --> 00:32:16.400
that point, right, But then suddenly Danny Diaz, oh low kid,

500
00:32:17.440 --> 00:32:20.680
runs faster than everyone. He's running, he's running, and then

501
00:32:20.880 --> 00:32:22.640
they see him and the coach is like, that's not

502
00:32:22.759 --> 00:32:26.119
Daddy Diaz, that's not Danny Dia, and so that's just

503
00:32:26.160 --> 00:32:30.200
stuck in my hand, that's not daddy. Oh my god. Anyway,

504
00:32:30.799 --> 00:32:34.200
and yes, I cried when it was when he turns

505
00:32:34.200 --> 00:32:36.799
the corner and you see Danny Diaz running as fat

506
00:32:36.839 --> 00:32:39.119
as he can, beating all these other kids, and they

507
00:32:39.200 --> 00:32:41.799
also it's like it's it in like the nineteen eighties

508
00:32:41.839 --> 00:32:45.200
and they're the only Mexican kids in cross country, and

509
00:32:45.240 --> 00:32:47.799
so there's already that added layer. And then you see

510
00:32:47.880 --> 00:32:53.519
little big Daddy Dias just running big Dannya. It was beautiful.

511
00:32:53.599 --> 00:32:55.359
And then at the end you get this little like

512
00:32:55.599 --> 00:32:59.359
you know how the based on true story movies have

513
00:32:59.480 --> 00:33:01.720
like a little like they write on the screen like

514
00:33:01.799 --> 00:33:04.640
where Yeah, but the last scene you see in the

515
00:33:04.680 --> 00:33:10.799
movie is the actual coach with the current middle schoolers

516
00:33:10.880 --> 00:33:13.440
or high schoolers I think they're high schoolers, and then

517
00:33:13.839 --> 00:33:16.440
they ride on there that the members of that original

518
00:33:16.519 --> 00:33:20.799
nineteen eighty something team, they still joined the cross country

519
00:33:20.799 --> 00:33:23.880
team for practice. Two or three of them were teachers.

520
00:33:24.400 --> 00:33:27.200
That's so cool. When I was seeing the edits of

521
00:33:27.279 --> 00:33:29.920
the of the movie, I saw a lot of comments

522
00:33:29.920 --> 00:33:32.039
from people that were from McPartland and there you were

523
00:33:32.079 --> 00:33:35.680
like posting pictures with the coach yes, and with some

524
00:33:35.720 --> 00:33:37.960
of the original members too. And then there was a

525
00:33:37.960 --> 00:33:39.559
comment I saw. I don't know who it was because

526
00:33:39.599 --> 00:33:42.279
I don't know the names of the people. Now I

527
00:33:42.319 --> 00:33:45.119
already on top of not knowing their names, I also forgot.

528
00:33:45.480 --> 00:33:47.400
But they're like, oh, it's so sad that such and

529
00:33:47.440 --> 00:33:50.599
such went to prison or something like that. That Massio, Yes,

530
00:33:50.680 --> 00:33:53.440
that Massio the ass but apparently he got his life together.

531
00:33:53.920 --> 00:33:57.400
That's good. Like people make mistakes. Yeah, and the point

532
00:33:57.480 --> 00:34:00.519
is supposed to be able to take. Yeah, so I'm

533
00:34:00.559 --> 00:34:03.519
glad that he did. Yeah. Yeah, but yeah, it's a

534
00:34:03.599 --> 00:34:08.519
very very very heartfelt movie. Got I also rented nineteen

535
00:34:08.559 --> 00:34:11.559
eighty three. Uh I think eighty three. Oh my bad, No,

536
00:34:11.639 --> 00:34:14.159
it's a nineteen eighty three movie called it Northing. I

537
00:34:14.199 --> 00:34:16.000
was like, that doesn't sound right because you told you're

538
00:34:16.000 --> 00:34:20.760
gonna rine and my brain's not working. I see that

539
00:34:21.159 --> 00:34:23.360
I rented in Northey, but I haven't watched it because

540
00:34:23.400 --> 00:34:25.519
I've been going to see like a seven pm. And

541
00:34:25.920 --> 00:34:31.519
I know, being deprived of Christina right now, no one

542
00:34:30.519 --> 00:34:33.800
to go to so early because I feel like shit,

543
00:34:34.000 --> 00:34:36.320
she hasn't seen anything. I sent her on TikTok, no

544
00:34:36.400 --> 00:34:39.239
I have it. I have And then I was like,

545
00:34:39.280 --> 00:34:41.159
I need to stop. I need to pace myself because

546
00:34:41.159 --> 00:34:43.119
she then she's gonna ignorese right once. Then it wanted

547
00:34:43.159 --> 00:34:44.880
to see all of them. No, I'm going to see

548
00:34:44.880 --> 00:34:47.000
all of them. Come on, now, you do that. I

549
00:34:47.000 --> 00:34:48.920
don't do that. Yeah, oh I do that when I

550
00:34:48.960 --> 00:34:50.719
get too many of them, Like, let me just look

551
00:34:50.760 --> 00:34:52.800
at the most recent ones and then one from the top.

552
00:34:52.840 --> 00:34:56.760
So the evening I saw them all. Yeah, no surprise.

553
00:34:57.079 --> 00:34:59.159
But yeah. North is the other movie that is I

554
00:34:59.239 --> 00:35:02.400
rented and I only to watch it. I'm ready to cry.

555
00:35:02.639 --> 00:35:07.440
It's the story of two Guatemalan siblings who flee the

556
00:35:07.440 --> 00:35:10.280
civil war, but like a specific massacre during the civil

557
00:35:10.320 --> 00:35:13.920
war they flee, they're making their way to La Uh

558
00:35:14.280 --> 00:35:17.119
and I guess it ends in a very tragic way.

559
00:35:17.199 --> 00:35:19.920
I don't know you, oh my god, but I'm ready

560
00:35:19.960 --> 00:35:24.440
to cry and I forgot that I had seen scenes

561
00:35:24.519 --> 00:35:27.599
of the movie before. Oh really, Yeah, there's a part

562
00:35:27.760 --> 00:35:32.679
of a two uh maneatela and he's trying to teach

563
00:35:32.760 --> 00:35:34.280
me how to sound like a Mexican and he's like,

564
00:35:34.480 --> 00:35:38.480
give me your Mexican accent. And I saw that scene before.

565
00:35:39.679 --> 00:35:45.800
I'm yes, yes, but I didn't know it was from

566
00:35:45.840 --> 00:35:49.559
that movie. And then so I'm excited to watch it.

567
00:35:49.800 --> 00:35:53.039
Not tonight, I still feel like shit, but hopefully tomorrow. Yeah,

568
00:35:53.199 --> 00:35:57.559
you sound better than yesterday. Yes, I do feel slightly

569
00:35:57.599 --> 00:36:01.760
better than yesterday. But again, I'm a baby, so slight

570
00:36:01.840 --> 00:36:04.519
thing that's wrong with me. And I'm in bed, okay,

571
00:36:04.599 --> 00:36:11.079
so in bed sleeping all day. Yeah, and Kyle's making

572
00:36:11.119 --> 00:36:14.480
soup for me. Great, I love that for you. Yeah,

573
00:36:14.960 --> 00:36:18.559
I'm already almost done with my soup som okay, so

574
00:36:18.599 --> 00:36:21.559
yeah we can add this here. Yeah, I'm just talking

575
00:36:21.559 --> 00:36:25.920
about soup now. Yeah. Yeah, for the record, I love soup.

576
00:36:26.360 --> 00:36:30.480
Wow mm hmmm. I only like possola and ramen and

577
00:36:30.559 --> 00:36:33.679
sometimes fa my god. I love almost any soup except

578
00:36:33.880 --> 00:36:38.960
I don't like the creamy ones like creama mush Italian ones, yeah,

579
00:36:39.079 --> 00:36:40.639
or like you know the one that you get in

580
00:36:40.679 --> 00:36:43.079
like a bowl in San Francisco and you can eat

581
00:36:43.119 --> 00:36:47.119
the bowl oh clamtowder. Yeah, I don't like that either either,

582
00:36:47.519 --> 00:36:49.800
I do. I would eat the I like the bread,

583
00:36:50.039 --> 00:36:52.480
the bread, and then it tastes good, like when it's

584
00:36:52.480 --> 00:36:55.840
soft with the soup. Like if someone else finishes all

585
00:36:55.880 --> 00:36:58.239
the soup and then I eat the bread, that would

586
00:36:58.280 --> 00:37:02.280
be perfect ideal. Yeah yeah, So any like thick, creamy

587
00:37:02.320 --> 00:37:05.639
soups I don't like, but like a liquid like oh wait,

588
00:37:05.760 --> 00:37:08.320
I like I love of course you do, yeah, of course,

589
00:37:08.400 --> 00:37:15.719
and yeah all the Mexican soups except yeah m hmm. Okay,

590
00:37:15.719 --> 00:37:20.920
