I definitely am a fan of spicy 14 00:00:49,380 --> 00:00:50,380 food. 15 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:56,900 But spicy enough where you can still enjoy it. And I feel like after wing one 16 00:00:56,900 --> 00:01:02,660 when the misery, you know, starts. Yeah, the party stops. Exactly. 17 00:01:24,270 --> 00:01:25,390 Do you like smell it first? 18 00:01:25,630 --> 00:01:26,630 Yeah, sometimes.

Of course. You make the rule. There are no rules. 23 00:01:46,230 --> 00:01:48,310 Okay, cool. We have a format, but there are no rules. 24 00:01:50,090 --> 00:01:54,250 So it actually is kind of rare for us to have a bonafide spice connoisseur on 25 00:01:54,250 --> 00:01:58,190 the show. What stands out in your memory as the spiciest food experience you've 26 00:01:58,190 --> 00:02:00,990 ever had? Like, have you ever tested the outer limits of your tolerance? 27 00:02:01,830 --> 00:02:07,950 Okay. So I remember being, I want to say I was about like seven years old, and I 28 00:02:07,950 --> 00:02:14,850 was like triple dog dared by a family member to bite a cheetah and rub it 29 00:02:14,850 --> 00:02:17,150 my lip for 30 seconds. 30 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,420 So ask me what kind of chile it was. I don't know. 31 00:02:20,660 --> 00:02:25,860 But a fresh, like raw chile straight from the garden of my grandma's got to 32 00:02:25,860 --> 00:02:26,900 something really spicy. 33 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:31,200 And at seven years old, I was like, yeah, for $10, I'll do that. 34 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:38,560 And so I did it. And my lips got so big. And I feel like I definitely had a 35 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:39,560 reaction of sorts. 36 00:02:39,860 --> 00:02:41,120 But I got my $10. 37 00:02:41,930 --> 00:02:45,450 And that's what matters. You know, I almost ate a Carolina Reaper, the 38 00:02:45,450 --> 00:02:48,610 pepper in the entire world. And you know what? I don't think Chris gave me a 39 00:02:48,610 --> 00:02:51,370 dime for it, you know? That was just for the love of the game. 40 00:02:51,670 --> 00:02:52,670 I love that. 41 00:02:52,890 --> 00:02:58,070 I think it's a little bit more hot than my Scandinavian cousins. 42 00:03:01,190 --> 00:03:04,730 Eggplant. A little skeptical. 43 00:03:05,170 --> 00:03:06,129 A little bit. 44 00:03:06,130 --> 00:03:07,710 I'm not really like a big eggplant fan. 45 00:03:10,900 --> 00:03:11,900 Oh, just your skin. 46 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:18,660 This one's also kind of good. 47 00:03:19,920 --> 00:03:21,180 I'm going to take a good bite of this one. 48 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:24,480 That was going up. 49 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:26,000 That was good. 50 00:03:27,220 --> 00:03:28,220 Okay, eggplant. 51 00:03:29,420 --> 00:03:32,900 Can never judge a sock by the label, as they say. No, I guess not. 52 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:35,040 That was good. 53 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:39,940 So as a bilingual singer, I'm curious, does that duality ever bleed over into 54 00:03:39,940 --> 00:03:44,140 songwriting? Like are there ideas or emotions that are easier to express in 55 00:03:44,140 --> 00:03:46,100 Spanish than English or vice versa? 56 00:03:46,900 --> 00:03:51,040 I started with, wow, that was so good.

It's my mariachi song called Por El Contrario. 135 00:08:10,060 --> 00:08:16,800 There's just an emotion and a tonality that it demands of your voice, and so I 136 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:17,800 would say that one. 137 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:24,640 A step above that would be my song Querido Abuelo because it's emotional 138 00:08:24,700 --> 00:08:29,480 And it's a song that I wrote about my grandfather who I gained as an angel in 139 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,799 heaven. I grew up with all four of my grandparents being super present in my 140 00:08:32,799 --> 00:08:39,260 life.

And every time, even talking 146 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:55,400 about it right now, I'm getting a little emotional. 147 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,260 Oh, this is a hot one. Special. 148 00:09:04,220 --> 00:09:07,620 When you say tropical, is it because it's got like a sweetness to it? 149 00:09:08,020 --> 00:09:10,940 Exactly. A little sweet heat action on it. Like a pineapple? 150 00:09:14,180 --> 00:09:15,360 You guys should just hire me. 151 00:09:19,420 --> 00:09:20,600 Oh, my God.
