Episode description

Ever found yourself accidentally burning your child’s savings? Our latest episode brings you a rollercoaster of stories with our friend Nazim, joining us all the way from Italy at 3 AM. From his early days of late-night live streaming from bed on Happs to his adventures in digital consulting and cruise ship design, Nazim shares it all. We laugh about his recent performance in a Milan theater recounting that infamous money-burning incident, and touch base about about Italy, and his wife and their busy lives.

We also catch up on the current happenings—Nazim fills us in on his daughter's burgeoning photography career in New York and his recent trip to Sicily. We steer clear of heavy political topics, instead soaking in the nostalgia of past platforms like Blab, Happs, and Google+. Amidst the light-hearted banter, we share our upcoming travel plans and revel in the shared history that binds us together. This segment is a testament to the joy and camaraderie that fuels our conversations.

Finally, we wrap up with some hilarious and heartwarming stories about marriage, including Nazim's whirlwind romance and an unforgettable wedding night mishap. Our discussions meander through frustrations with LinkedIn pitches, the rise of AI, and even the treacherous roads of Gatlinburg, Tennessee. Whether you’re here for the laughs, the memories, or the insights, this episode promises a delightful mix that’ll keep you hooked from start to finish.

I have to confess , last night my mother-in-law was downstairs and we watched the news together and I was sitting there watching the news going like every day the world's getting really crazy .

Every day is kind of like something new . So our concern here in Europe it seems to be this whole thing with , you know , russia and Ukraine and this back and forth . So I don't know , I'm trying to stay positive , but you know . And then , apart from that , my daughter went to New York yesterday . She arrived in New York .

Tony D.

I've been on the phone twice Nazeem , I never had an issue . I've heard a lot of crazy stories , but I can tell you personal experience . I was fine .

Carmen Lezeth

So to your personal experience , I was fine , so I don't know what else is going through , but I personally have not had an issue with them . Oh wait , I'm sorry , I was just saying I would never go , never have been on a cruise .

Nazim Beltran

Go ahead sir , well , carmen enjoys going to places where the bedbugs are really going high .

Carmen Lezeth

Ooh , that was not my intention , baby , not at all . Would you rather go on a cruise or go with bedbugs ? Had I known about the bedbugs I you know what's so funny . I was just updating something about the bedbugs and I was like this is so lingering , like I got to let it go , and now you guys bring it up .

Nazim Beltran

Alex bedbugs for 500 , please .

Carmen Lezeth

No , here's the truth . I just don't like being on boats , so I don't do it . They're so big . My God it's like a floating hotel .

Nazim Beltran

They're huge .

Cynthia Ruiz

It's so much fun .

Rick Costa

It's a lot of fun . They're comfortable too . The fact that they are so big makes it not feel like a boat .

Carmen Lezeth

You really don't feel it . Cynthia , you said to me during the day you could do all this stuff whatever but at night I don't leave my room because it's too dark .

Cynthia Ruiz

Oh no , I don't go out to the like outside Cause it's so dark .

Carmen Lezeth

I'll stay inside . I thought you're supposed to feel really safe and everything . Are you worried that something's going to happen If you go ? I would think you feel safe . I don't like the dark , Okay , okay . Okay , All right , that makes sense . All right , well , cool , that's fun .

I said that we were going to talk about friendships and I want to bring it up for the . Oh wait , Tony , did you want to yell at Nazeem or something before we get into this next part ? Were you and I going to fight about it ?

Nazim Beltran

No , he's got his shirt on , so I'm actually pretty good . Naze , I was going to surprise you , but then I thought that might be a little too much .

Tony D.

Listen , y'all don't understand . Let me go ahead and tell this story . I first met Nazeem right , and I hate to do it like this , but we had fun . He told me it wasn't a problem . So he let me know if I'd go too far . Me , him and Bathurst was on . I was actually driving to an appointment and I jumped on with them , nazeem , I turned and looked at him .

He's sitting there , laid out right .

Nostalgia and Friendship Bonds

If you've ever seen the Godfather 2 , remember when Michael went down to Cuba and he was talking to that dude that had all his chest just hanging out on the beach it's so true . I said Nazeem , what in the absolute ? I said wait a damn minute , why are you up in here with a damn poodle on your chest ? That was so funny , everybody was laughing .

Nazim Beltran

We had a good time . We had a great time .

Tony D.

Like this is day one . I'm glad he took it in stride .

Nazim Beltran

He realized Richard remembers he saw that .

Carmen Lezeth

Well , that's how I met you . I don't know if it was that episode , but that was . You were all very comfortable , way too comfortable on half .

Tony D.

Because we didn't have anything against each other . We were all looking to have fun . Most of the guys we shot the proverbial on the daily with no problems , like when guys go to the bar and want to just hang out . That was how we're treating . I remember telling you a lot of times you didn't understand it at first , you didn't see it .

I had to see it from everybody else before I realized what was going on , and that's why I was up there with everybody . So then I mean literally there was 15 of us every night cracking jokes for hours .

Cynthia Ruiz

It was crazy .

Carmen Lezeth

All about the joy no , no , I did not say all about the joy , nothing , that's bullshit , I think . Okay .

So what I meant was because there were good parts and I understand that that's the part you hold on to , but as an outsider who came into it , for me it was more negative than positive and there's nothing to do with the times that you guys had that were really , really fun , because those moments were great , right , and again , I you know I was messing with

you about how much you would , would tony would be on any show . That wasn't , that he wasn't hosting and he would be talking to people as he's eating and then the work and that I don't care about , you know . But then he would be like , with no problem .

I was like , oh my god , and I think it was fun because we would , I would just mess with you and laugh at you , and that's why he always says he behaves on my show .

Tony D.

I do behave . Behave on the show . I don't vape , I won't floss . I'm sitting here , good , clean , for an hour , just for her .

Carmen Lezeth

There's no problem dissing me and messing with me or whatever , if you ever see any broadcast .

Tony D.

I do , I don't care . Everybody was videoconferencing for about four years . People are at home . You get kids in the background . People are cleaning up . People don't turn their camera on , they drive . We did everything pretty much presentable . To an extent , the nakedness is cool with the chest hair stuff .

Carmen Lezeth

Don't get me started on that . No , look it . I think it was fun . I could see why Haps did work , but I understood exactly why it didn't .

Nazim Beltran

Richard's happy .

Carmen Lezeth

Tony is always the person that's doing 15 other things while he's on anybody's show .

Tony D.

Unless I'm on all of her norms .

Carmen Lezeth

Unless you're on all of her noise , unless you're on the economic show , my parents or whatever . But I did want to talk about friendships for this reason , because one of the questions I had is I consider you guys friends , except Tony . It's so weird because I haven't met the three of you . You know what I mean .

Nazim Beltran

I've met , of course , cynthia's , my cousin , and I find that interesting because I have people in my real life who think they're my friend and they're not ironic well , let's , let me tell you I I remember back in the day it was it was like kind of like you would get a little obsessed , like I want to see the gang and you would come on and I would go

on in certain hours of the night which I was supposed to be sleeping , but I would work , wake up on purpose and go , damn , I gotta join , and I would come in and I think a lot of really good friendships came out of it .

There was a little bit , once in a blue moon , a little , you know , trolling issues and things like that , but I think we all handled it very well , right , tony Right ?

Tony D.

Rick and I think I carried a lot personally for me with what I had going on . I went to the optimism and people were just talking about what's going on . All of us would listen to each other's day and then we would just have fun .

You know , you had different demographics from all over the globe enjoying themselves , knowing the same songs , having the same conversations , aware of the same current events . It was priceless to me . It really was . But the flip side is what I remember , because I seem to have come in during that .

Carmen Lezeth

No , no , no , because Cynthia doesn't really know . So I don't want to glorify what it was , because you guys have sweet memories . You were also on it much longer than I was .

Nazim Beltran

We were , but why is it no ?

Carmen Lezeth

longer around right .

Nazim Beltran

Oh , that part . Yeah , it's true .

Carmen Lezeth

And all those other people are . I'm not going to talk about the other people , but you know what I'm saying . You know what I'm saying . You know what I mean . You know what I'm saying . It became , there was a toxicity that kind of helped with the ending of it . So I said this to someone the other day .

I said you keep referring to somebody that is no longer here and you keep forgetting that you fired them , right . So this person keeps saying , oh my God , when they did it , they did it so perfectly , it was easy .

And then I'm like and you fired them , so stop putting that on the team , like the reason why we don't have it , whatever we're supposed to have it . And it's like we tend to like . I know people who have died that all of a sudden they're on this pedestal . They never did anything wrong .

That doesn't mean they deserve to die , but we tend to remember the good things and I think that's a positivity . You know what I mean . Cynthia , as an outsider of the four elsewhere , what's your take on ?

Do you feel like you're friends with Rick and Well , you don't know Nazeem , but maybe in your heart , because you want to go to Italy , do you think you're friends with , with familia . Isn't that how you say it Get that guest room ready .

Nazim Beltran

I had some friends in very high places , so be very careful .

Rick Costa

You know the Pope .

Carmen Lezeth

Yeah , I'm getting the Pope like this but , cynthia , I'm just curious what your thoughts are from meeting some people that you don't know , that you've met on the show .

Cynthia Ruiz

Yeah , I mean , I feel like you know , rick and Tony are my friends now , you know , I mean Alma Hi , alma Hi .

Nazim Beltran

Alma

Memories of HAPS

Good morning .

Cynthia Ruiz

You know , just being on the show and getting to know them and stuff like that , it's , it's really cool , I mean , even though we were like what , two hours from from rick and a few hours from tony , like yeah , but I think it's kind of interesting too because I like coming and doing the show , so I work what 50s ?

Carmen Lezeth

it's been terrible because I mean , usually I don't have this much work , so I'm grateful for it . But I'm exhausted . And I think it was Andrea . The other day we had dinner . She was like , how are you doing that ? Like , how are you ? I'm like because coming on here and talking and having fun is what makes me get through the day .

Now , like because I don't have so much time and this is the only thing , I make sure I turned off all my clients on my phone because they're always calling me when we're online , as if they don't know I'm online , so I get that attraction to it . I understand what Tony was saying and that you guys loved going on to Habs .

I think it was a great possibility . I think somehow along the way , I'm always getting bad with everything . By the way , I don't mean to dis Habs , I just don't want to over , glorify it , but yeah , I'm wondering .

Nazim Beltran

Let me ask you a question what platform is there now that's similar ?

Carmen Lezeth

There really is . I mean , as far as I know there really isn't one and in a way I'm kind of glad . I like having some control over , because that's what I think was a problem for me at HAPS .

Like , even if you go visit someone's channel and you try to comment , you know you offend somebody or whatever , and then people are talking about you in another stream and now I don't . I mean not that I ever cared , but it became a toxic thing because it was in one app area . Does that make sense ?

Tony D.

I can say that there's a couple of apps that could be close or similar , but they don't have what we have . And I'm around a bunch of apps . I jumped around a few places . A lot of places don't have what we had . They just don't , and the opportunity to do so much with each other was something I was pushing . I had to let a lot of it go .

You know , it's been a couple of years . I just stopped worrying about everybody else . Someone just had to do me or how we're doing this . But broadcast with any and everybody I'm always going to be willing to do . I have fun doing it . That's how I started learning to broadcast .

Learning to carry conversations , learning to interact and us having a global audience was something I was trying to run with for the longest and I got to let people be . So I'm just going to do my thing . I'll come up here with Carmen . I'll jump on everybody's show . It's not a problem to me , but I over-glorify , like she says I do . I had too much down .

Carmen Lezeth

I've never been on live with people and played Uno . That was the most bananas . No , that was fantastic . That actually was fun , yeah that was cool , cynthia .

Tony D.

we would play Uno . There would be eight of us with cards in our hands playing Uno and people were watching us .

Carmen Lezeth

Just like this , and then people were in the chat room and it was just real , and also when they did the karaoke .

Rick Costa

Yeah , I was going to say don't forget karaoke .

Carmen Lezeth

Karaoke was fun when people did it . I'm trying to .

Tony D.

It was fun , but the replay was horrendous .

Carmen Lezeth

Because you're being so technical about to karaoke , to just sing it and sound like a fool .

Tony D.

The audio was horrendous because it was off . We thought we was on cue when we were singing , but when we listened , everybody was different . It was terrible . It looked like Max Hedren was singing with himself . It was that bad . But , I think what I like .

Cynthia Ruiz

Go ahead .

Nazim Beltran

When did HAPS end ? It was before COVID . Correct May 5th 2022 . It was right before COVID .

Carmen Lezeth

No , it was after COVID . That's why I called them .

Nazim Beltran

It was after COVID .

Tony D.

You're right , may 5th 2022 , the last day of house .

Rick Costa

I think that's why there was so many people on there , I think partly because of COVID , because everybody was stuck at home .

Nazim Beltran

Yes , oh , yeah , yeah , yeah , it was a lifesaver .

Carmen Lezeth

I still think it was a great idea and I know people don't want me to say this , but I still think that the people who owned it and managed it made a lot of missteps and it's unfortunate because it was a great business idea and plan . But yeah , I mean , you know , I just like that . I really believe I've made some friends from there , like Ted Hicks too .

You know it's a cool . What's wrong with Tony D laughing ? What's he laughing at ? I'm reading the chat as you're talking . What he's ?

Tony D.

reading the chat .

Carmen Lezeth

Tony know that day very well . What day is Sadie talking about the Mayfans ? Play , play too . Oh , what happened ? Oh , no , never mind If it's something I don't talk about . What that the day ended .

Tony D.

Yes , that's it , that's what I was saying .

Rick Costa

Because even on that day there was drama , there was literally two people fighting over . No , I was the last one on there . No , I was the last one on there . No , I was the last one . Are you serious ? Are we in elementary school ?

Tony D.

I forgot about that .

Rick Costa

Yeah , it's crazy .

Carmen Lezeth

I think it became addictive for so many people .

Rick Costa

Yes yes .

Carmen Lezeth

Because they didn't have anything else outside to do . So everything became haps , and I get it , but that's why it became toxic .

Nazim Beltran

It was a huge time suck . In certain ways , my wife was like my wife's like don't you like have to concentrate on work instead of yeah , yeah , yeah ?

Carmen Lezeth

it was . It was real and I mean , I think everyone needs to have a social life and I'm not messing with anybody doing it online , because I know right now coming here , this gives me life . You especially when you're working all weekend . Tony , why are you laughing so ?

Tony D.

hard . You know what I hate to say it ? Rick is petty . I've been trying to do this , but you are petty as hell . You know that right , Hi , Cup of Joe , Hi .

Carmen Lezeth

Mario . Okay , why is he petty ? What did he say ? The last thing he just said I didn't say no names .

Tony D.

There were people who was actually like I was the last one . No , I was the last one . No , I was the last one . That did happen . I forgot about that . I didn't say no names .

Carmen Lezeth

Melanie , you're right . Tiktok , lives are similar .

Tony D.

I was going to say , Melanie , that TikTok would pretty much be the closest to what we have with yeah , let's say that's a part .

Carmen Lezeth

You didn't know about it . So the the thing on haps that was pretty cool is when you were doing your show , people who were watching your show , if they wanted to , could send you hearts or something and they were worth money and what was even better . Okay , if I have to remember one cool thing about haps , I will give you all one .

Let's say tony was doing a show whatever and we were all giving him , whatever it was , the heart . So they all equal money , certain amounts , whatever .

What would be cool is you would see Tony the next day giving all that money to somebody else who needed it or whatever , and it was cool because you would make money on it and it would hold like in a little bank on the app , not bank , whatever it was and you could cash it out or use it to give other people hearts .

Cynthia Ruiz

So most people I'm not I don't know , but it felt like most people would get hearts and then we'd all then support somebody else or when somebody was in trouble , you know , like somebody in the crew that is kind of like the tiktok live , because they do that too they do that too .

Carmen Lezeth

But what was great is you get the money . So so tony would do a show and he'd get all these hearts because he's talking about a good subject or he's being funny or whatever , and of course none of that's true . But I'm just gonna say it was . It was totally true . It was totally true .

Um and and then , like he would have all these hearts , and then the next show or some other show that he would be in the chat room in , or whatever , tony would be giving out that money to those people , not because he had to , because you could cash out at like 200 bucks or something , because I remember I cashed it out a couple of times , right , and you

must've cashed it out or give it away so many more times because you were on there much more than I was .

Tony D.

I didn't make as much as I spent .

Carmen Lezeth

Exactly , but I'm talking about the money you would get , and so that , I think , was cause I remember one specific person I won't mention them , but one specific person got in trouble with something and they were just sharing what was going on and all of a sudden it's like some signal went out to everyone .

It didn't , but we all heard about it because it's like it was like you lived all in the same house or something and I didn't even know the person , but I knew . Okay , I got to give something you know what I mean and that person ended up getting home . I remember something about they were stuck somewhere .

Tony D.

Oh , yeah , yeah , yeah , and they couldn't get home . She was stuck at the airport . 17 of us jumped out of nowhere .

Carmen Lezeth

It was unbelievable and even if you didn't know the person , we would just like automatically try to help .

Tony D.

I thought that was probably one of the best things the community I hold on to Carmen and if I don't mean anything else , if I don't stand strong on anything else . That wasn't the only instance we ever did that for anybody . And the number of times , even online , if we heard something , the way people jumped . I'm never letting that go .

I don't care who hates me , no , they do . Yeah , because people are tired of me talking about it . And I always tell people I say you know , some of you don't even have this type of support in real life . Y'all kiss my ass .

Marriage Stories and Haps Banter

We jumped from around the globe . Who's stuck where ? Who needs help ? Who can't pay a bill ? Who needs to change a tire ?

Carmen Lezeth

Who's on the road ? Who ?

Tony D.

that was something I held on real tight too , and that was something I was always fighting for a lot of people for , and even when I did my interview , rick was there for that nazim , I think he was there too . Crumb , I think you might have made that one when I did it with tracy from baywatch with the boobie slippage .

Carmen Lezeth

No , I was not there . I heard about it . I'm so sorry , that's all . I wasn't there , whoops , I'm sorry .

Tony D.

I thought they were there for eight hours , and that's all everybody remembers .

Carmen Lezeth

Because that's what happens when that happens , Tony . That's why you don't want that to happen .

Tony D.

I tried . This is what I'm talking about .

Carmen Lezeth

I know so he was interviewing somebody from Baywatch .

Tony D.

Tracy Dinger from Baywatch . She came , one of the guys she's actually from Boston .

Carmen Lezeth

by the way , Cynthia , You'll have to .

Tony D.

Anyway .

Carmen Lezeth

Whoa , whoa , whoa . What do you mean ? Boston with a face ?

Tony D.

Because you had to throw that in there . That's right , because .

Carmen Lezeth

I assume Cynthia would know exactly who that is .

Tony D.

Who started on you with that Don't , don't count . I don't like that .

Carmen Lezeth

Don't count to me .

Nazim Beltran

And Richard got shortchanged on him .

Tony D.

They never responded to his emails . I was trying to help him when he got it Because you know everybody was catching up when he shut down . A lot of people didn't . There was a few of us trying to get the connections there for him and he never got his .

Carmen Lezeth

He never got his and I was trying to . I don't know . Mark Goldstein is on LinkedIn Send him an email . Seriously , or Goldman Goldman , right , that's right , goldman , and send him an email .

Tony D.

I had a great conversation with him the first time I met him . I had a great conversation with him .

Carmen Lezeth

He's the guy . He's one of the co-creators of the apps .

Tony D.

Yes , but we have . I'm not going to keep talking . It's been 12 minutes .

Rick Costa

I'm sorry , go ahead . The one thing I can say that cracked me up , but not in a good way is I know dang well what you are typing to me right here or talking to me right here . You would not say that to my actual face .

Carmen Lezeth

Wait what's happening . Who said what ?

Rick Costa

What's on the chat right now ? No , no , no In Haps . You would not say that to my face ? No , you wouldn't .

Tony D.

I couldn't of that . I tried to avoid a lot of the craziness .

Carmen Lezeth

You know what ? We're going to stop talking about Haps right now , because you're about to lie your ass off .

Cynthia Ruiz

You know what ?

Carmen Lezeth

Nobody's believing you . You were all up in that . We're done 33 minutes . We're done with Haps .

Cynthia Ruiz

Mario was about to get his boxing glove . He's like wait what ? We're going to start having it now .

Rick Costa

Razim , I have a question what made you go to Italy ?

Nazim Beltran

Oh , I fell in love with my current wife . That's an old story . We met at a party in Miami and after three , six months I proposed it was real fast , Wow .

Carmen Lezeth

And how long have you been married ?

Nazim Beltran

We've been married for 33 years Wow , thank you . She always jokes that she thinks . At the beginning she says I had a feeling you just wanted to marry me for my money . Oh my gosh .

Rick Costa

That's funny .

Carmen Lezeth

I love that . That's such a cool romantic story . Although I'd , like to hear her perspective . What would she say ?

Nazim Beltran

We were talking about it the other day , she was like it's pretty funny because she said if you wouldn't have married me , you would have been stuck in Miami , Probably like at a car wash cleaning cars .

Tony D.

What are you talking ?

Nazim Beltran

about I was already an architect . She's like yeah , but without me . I love that , I love her already .

Rick Costa

I love her too .

Carmen Lezeth

I love her too , that's awesome Ego , I like it .

Cynthia Ruiz

Ego .

Nazim Beltran

She's confident , that's right , she's very confident , healthy that's what they do Like ego .

Carmen Lezeth

That's not bad . It is bad because for a man , no one would say that Trust me , I would say that to anybody . You know what ? See , I shouldn't have said a word .

Rick Costa

We should have just been like yeah , Yell at Rick later .

Nazim Beltran

One of the stories I tell on that show called Don't Tell my Mom . I told the wedding night , which is when , basically , we got married on South Beach and I got plastered . She walked out . She kept looking at me . She's going like stop it , stop it . I was like . I ended up in the middle of vomit at a gay club .

My friend picked me up at 6 in the morning and said dude , you overdid it . The next day she's like I'm divorcing you . That's the marriage ever wow it's a pretty funny when I tell that story on people at the club . They laugh a lot .

Cynthia Ruiz

But women look at me like hey , 33 years I that's funny because me and juan , when we got married , you know , we had a reception .

Everybody went home and that night our friend of ours , we had a reception , everybody went home , and that night our friend of ours was spinning at a club and we went to the club right after our wedding and I still had my bail on and everything , and did Juan get plastered ? No , we didn't get plastered , but we had fun .

Carmen Lezeth

I was waiting to hear the plastered part .

Navigating AI and Unexpected Work Disruptions

Wow , I had an issue with somebody online at LinkedIn . So first let me say thank you to the five people who added us this week . Again , I'm always shocked by LinkedIn and people think I'm weird , but you can only get so many people to follow you on a business website and I'm just shocked by it . But anyways , so there's a lot of people .

When you're on LinkedIn , you'll get a DM that says you want to add me as a network and I do . I don't care . You know , if you want to cause , maybe they'll follow the show , maybe they'll whatever , I don't care . There might be a contact I can use in the future . You never know , but you always know it's not going to work .

When the next day they're pitching you something would never need at all , Like it doesn't . It would take you two seconds to actually read my profile on LinkedIn . You don't even have to go outside of LinkedIn to know that I have no interest in needing a Bobcat . I don't even know what that is . Isn't that like farm equipment or something ?

Cynthia Ruiz

Right ? Isn't that like some construction truck type thing and like the ?

Carmen Lezeth

salesperson won't stop talking about it . You know what I mean .

I'm like , and I think it's not just one , it's like you get so many of them so I've stopped adding people , because I just need a break , like I don't like to not add , like read the stuff , because it's usually people who are actually interested in the show which is what boggles my mind , you know what I mean or they're interested in what I do , because I

don't have that listed on there too much either of my real life . But do you guys get a lot of that kind of crap in your emails ? Or ?

Nazim Beltran

in your dating or whatever . I get a lot on LinkedIn . What I get a lot is programmers from India a lot . And it's like , oh , can we do something for your digital agency ? And I'm like , yeah , we already got the staff and you know , thank you .

Carmen Lezeth

Oh , you answer them back .

Nazim Beltran

I do , I'm very nice . I try once I don't . I basically answer everybody like no , thanks a lot , I'm not interested . But because LinkedIn , at the end of the day , it was born as a platform for business .

Carmen Lezeth

Yeah , but it's changing because it's trying to be more social . More social and they're adding everything under the sun that TikTok does or YouTube . They're trying to compete , and that's still wrong .

Nazim Beltran

Wait till they add AI .

Rick Costa

I know .

Nazim Beltran

You're going to have a little chat thing going like hi .

Carmen Lezeth

What's the AI ? There's AI on all these platforms too .

Nazim Beltran

Yes , everything's getting AI and we can talk about that . Boy , I don't know . Right now I'm taking a course , just picking up on things , because for my business it's quite important , but I think there's a lot of oversell on it .

Right now Everybody's like , oh , this is going to be the next thing , since , you know , slice bread , but I think the jury's still out a little bit . And then there's a lot of the news is like , oh , jobs are going to be lost , people are going to be going . But , yes , this is a possibility , but it's still too early to understand what's going to happen .

Carmen Lezeth

Yeah , Well , the only thing I'll add about AI on the jobs front is whenever we move forward as a species , like whenever we do , what are you doing ?

Nazim Beltran

She's framing us .

Carmen Lezeth

I'm sorry , I'll shake my leg you should be like a model for like toothpaste or something . It's cute , but it's just .

Cynthia Ruiz

I'm sorry okay , okay , I'm sorry tony , I'm sorry , I'm sorry that's like , though you know .

Rick Costa

Anytime you want me to shut up , just pull that up , um it's funny that we're talking about ai , because I literally just saw a video that talked about . Think about how many movies they've made that AI is going to be evil and destroy us .

Nazim Beltran

Space .

Rick Costa

Odyssey 2001 how . And then Jennifer Lopez just did a movie called Atlas stop , we're not promoting anything . Well , they said it was so bad that it was funny .

Carmen Lezeth

Jennifer Lopez said it was funny it's too embarrassing , as Latinas , to talk about Jennifer Lopez .

Nazim Beltran

Let me just use my thing about AI . She's looking good lately .

Carmen Lezeth

I just want to say this thing about AI Every time we make progress as a human species , whether it's fire the wheel you know having computers , you know having mobile phones that conversation about jobs are going to be lost is a factual thing . But more jobs will be created in other ways . That's how we move forward .

So that part doesn't bother me , but I do agree with what you said . I think it's too early . I agree with you . I think they're too early and putting it out there and scaring people after death .

Nazim Beltran

And .

Carmen Lezeth

I just got a notification that something was taken off my website and is being used on AI . That's all I'm going to say about it right now . And it is a question because , especially if you're not like a famous person or but they just did it to what's her name from the Marvel characters , they used her voice . What's her ?

Yeah , took her voice and used it from a sample . Use it from one . She actually did it and used AI to create it without her permission . So he has the money and she has the visibility to make a thing , but to people like us they're taking . What are we going to do , Unless someone tells me that it's happening ? And what are we going to do ?

I mean , I don't have that kind of money to sue , or you ?

Nazim Beltran

know I need to . I need to give some advice to everybody who , and also people in here if you're using chat GPT , do not put anything that's related to your business or things like that , or stuff that you don't want out there , because it's grabbing that and putting it in its database .

Carmen Lezeth

Careful . Yeah , I'll just tell you , it's my book , my first book . There are quotes taken from it and stories .

Tony D.

Did they at least reference you ? I'm sorry , Did they at least reference you when they took it ?

Carmen Lezeth

No , no no , you know , I've been telling you guys I had to hire a lawyer and he's so cool . Blah , blah , blah . That's what we're working on , because I don't know what to do . Here's the reason why I'm doing it . I'm not going to be mad . I'm mad that I wasn't credited .

Tony D.

Yes .

Carmen Lezeth

Or asked . You know what I mean . Or asked Because my book is available on Amazon . So what ends up happening is , in a weird kind of way , it's public , but it's not . It's my property .

Nazim Beltran

They wouldn't do that to a big-time author . Well , you know , in our digital agency we have clients that basically do big websites for them and stuff like that , and lately they're discussing with us on how to block the scraping of a website from AI .

Carmen Lezeth

Yeah , if you find out , please let me know . I swear to God , because all I want is to be asked .

Nazim Beltran

It's a bit complicated , but it can be done .

Carmen Lezeth

Yeah , I'm sorry I cut somebody off . Atlas was what .

Nazim Beltran

Trash Basura .

Rick Costa

Trash Basura . Oh no , no , the movie I thought about the movie .

Carmen Lezeth

Oh , I was like who's Atlas ? Okay , what movie is Atlas ?

Rick Costa

The one you said not to talk about because it had the Latino .

Carmen Lezeth

Oh yeah , no , no , no , Okay . Is that the Jennifer Lopez thing ?

Tony D.

Yes , yeah no , we just just just I saw the basketball .

Carmen Lezeth

I know , but I thought it was basketball .

Rick Costa

I can see that .

Carmen Lezeth

I can see that you guys were talking about basketball , yeah .

Rick Costa

Because he said I hope he got pants on .

Tony D.

Don't open that door either , please .

Carmen Lezeth

How was you guys week actually ? Cynthia , you had something to say there .

Rick Costa

Oh no .

Carmen Lezeth

What happened .

Cynthia Ruiz

I wasn't going to talk about it , but so I'm still , you know , I'm still in my old job right now and where my desk is , you know , there's three of us that sit there and there's a freestanding wall between us and like where our supplies are and everything . And so I hear some water trickling and I'm thinking somebody's pouring a drink into a cup .

I turn around , no , there's a waterfall coming down from the floor office , let's go . And it got everywhere and I mean it flooded our whole area and yeah , it's been a mess .

Carmen Lezeth

See , I would have been like oh day off . Let me know when everything's fixed I'll see you guys tomorrow .

Cynthia Ruiz

Oh , you would think they would send everybody home . No , still saw patients and oh yeah , all they did was just move us out into the waiting area check patients in . And yeah , and they did was just move us out into the waiting area , check patients in , and yeah , and today this happened .

This happened on Tuesday morning and today was the day they actually decided to close the office for the afternoon because the doctors were complaining about it . Well , the employees , the doctors , were complaining now , so now they decided to close it for the afternoon . Get it as fixed as they can so we can come back tomorrow .

Yeah , that's like a Tony move right .

Carmen Lezeth

Nazeem is cool , carmen is not . You know what I mean . It's kind of that . But if Nazeem told him to stop messing with me , then he would probably listen . You know what I ?

Nazim Beltran

mean the eyebrow . I got some bad news . I left my battery charger back in Milan .

Carmen Lezeth

So , whoops , no , that's okay .

Nazim Beltran

Six percent we're going to jump off soon . You don't have to worry about it , we're going to milk that six percent yeah . How long does the show last ?

Carmen Lezeth

We usually have the show well lately . We've been going later because you know Tony's been on , but we usually only go for an hour .

Nazim Beltran

Okay , good , yeah , I'll make an hour .

Carmen Lezeth

I told Cynthia and , I think , rink , that you were probably just going to pop in or whatever , because I thought you would be sleeping and just checking in . You know what I mean .

Nazim Beltran

I was having a great dream and Jennifer Lopez was in it . No , okay .

Carmen Lezeth

That was good . That'll be a clip .

Rick Costa

Jenny from the block showed up . Oh geez .

Carmen Lezeth

No , I'm not mad at her , I'm just disappointed . I think there are so few Latino artists and then there are none that are Afro-Latino . So when you see one that has a name and you know what I mean has the power to help other people she's obsessed with herself .

Nazim Beltran

Yeah , a little bit self-centered yeah .

Carmen Lezeth

And so I think it's just . I've always supported her because she's a great dancer . Because she's a great dancer , I'll say nothing about her singing or about her acting , but more props to you . You know what I mean . Like you're a business woman doing your thing , making money however you can , I ain't mad at you , but she's horrible .

Nazim Beltran

By the way , when I was living on South Beach , when I met my wife before we moved nobody knows the story I was basically paying rent to Gloria Estefan because and she was the nicest- person .

Carmen Lezeth

She's amazing . You can talk about her if you want .

Nazim Beltran

Yeah , she was super cool , very cool , and her husband too , very cool people .

Carmen Lezeth

And she's someone who is always supporting other Latinos of every color , all the time and people in general . But I'm just saying , in the Latino community it's a thing , but you know she's a reina . How does she say reina , reina Azúcar ?

Nazim Beltran

No azúcar is the other one .

Cynthia Ruiz

No , that's sugar . Celia Cruz Azúcar , yeah .

Nazim Beltran

I ran into her when I was a kid . I was like 20-something years old , I was at the airport and Celia Cruz was there .

Carmen Lezeth

You did not yeah .

Nazim Beltran

And I looked at her and she turned around and she goes azúcar . That that's awesome , are you being funny ?

Carmen Lezeth

are you being ? No , it's a real story yeah , that would be amazing living living in miami . They're always passing by . That's amazing . Oh wow , I love that story that's good , yeah , so that's all it is about her . I'm just disappointed and I don't get it . I don't get you know spending how much was it ?

20 million dollars to do that thing we're not going to talk about . With a movie she did , I think she spent $20 million of her own money and I keep thinking like , but you could have done something that would help other people , or you could do a movie that would help or inspire or whatever . But no , or just take your money and burn it in the street .

Help warm homeless people , because that would be the only thing you could do .

Nazim Beltran

You can put it in a stove and burn it , that's how you do it . I'm an expert in that .

Carmen Lezeth

Tony , what's the score ? Who are you talking to it's ?

Tony D.

644 . I'm not talking to anybody . Are you on another show right now ? No , so

Late Night TV and Retirement Plans

.

Carmen Lezeth

Nazeem , have you seen Ted Hicks' show ? Have you been on there late night ?

Nazim Beltran

No , he hasn't come on lately a lot . What time is it at ?

Carmen Lezeth

It's not on . Is he coming on tonight ?

Tony D.

Ted normally comes on about 10 , 30 .

Carmen Lezeth

He comes on after us , but he hasn't for a week .

Tony D.

He's been on for a week yeah .

Nazim Beltran

He's been working on a business , so Okay , I have to confess something Ever since Blab and Haps and all that stuff ended , I've been , you know , a little bit off social media . I haven't spent as much time as I've reached , you know , once in a while .

You know , michael also sends me a message and I say chat to him and we're supposed to get and talk to each other , but I'm more concentrated on being busy . I'm not saying that what we do on social media is a waste of time , but no no , I totally get it .

Carmen Lezeth

I I feel like I think this has to be . Just look at , that's why on thursday nights I try to keep this as positive or fun , or you know , tony and I go at it like being funny , but at the end of the day I adore him . You know , and rick and I , and cynthia and I , were cool people and it's just fun .

Anybody who comes on the show it's just for a little relief , especially if you're working a lot . But the idea that I would do it every single day , like they were doing on HAPS , and you have nothing else to hang on to . And that's not to be mean , it's just . It was during COVID , so everybody was stuck in the house . No one understood it .

But just to me it's just a part of it and fun . But before we go and I'm not trying to cut us off , but we're getting to the one hour mark Nazeem is in Italy and can't wake up at three to join us all the time . You know what I mean .

Rick Costa

All About the Joy Internacional .

Cynthia Ruiz

Oh , that's a trick , there you go .

Nazim Beltran

There you go .

Carmen Lezeth

We'll have an All .

Nazim Beltran

About the Joy International version .

Carmen Lezeth

I like that . Rick . I give you props . That one was a good one . That's like Tony making up the all about the joy . So you know , I've trademarked the name . It's official now . I changed the website , Tony . You didn't get my email , did you ? You got to go check it out .

You haven't asked me what I've been doing this week , so I just wanted to let you finish .

Nazim Beltran

Oh , what were you doing ? The ?

Tony D.

airport stuff . I'm still at my job . It'll be 13 years in August . Wow , mic drop . Yesterday actually has been 29 years I've been in Air Force Wow , awesome . I'm actually out of town for a conference right now in .

Rick Costa

Tennessee . It looks like a hotel . That's a whole other story . I'm actually out of town for a conference right now .

Tony D.

You know Tennessee , yeah , that's a whole nother story . I was going to tell her , I was going to roll through everything else , but yeah .

Rick Costa

Do you plan to retire from the Air Force ?

Tony D.

My brother did , I never thought I would last this long . So , yes , I'm thinking about next year , but smart , since he's telling me to hold on for another decade . So Jason rose up . That's the smart thing to do . I do probably need to change jobs because my body is talking and aching . I don't know if y'all noticed my shoulder was messing with me .

That's before we came on . I probably do need to find something else . I'll be Air Force at the very least . Next year will be 30 years . Never thought I'd be long .

Carmen Lezeth

If you get married before your retirement , does your wife get half the pension ?

Tony D.

Good question , that's a great question , her and I .

Carmen Lezeth

Carmen D . I feel it , carmen D .

Tony D.

Nazeem , you don't know Me and the wife did get divorced about a year and a half ago .

Nazim Beltran

Oh , I'm sorry to hear that , yeah , that's already .

Carmen Lezeth

Nazeem wasn't around .

Rick Costa

No he wasn't .

Tony D.

Oh , I agree not to go after each other's retirements or whatever .

Carmen Lezeth

Oh man , I was just being funny , that's all I was being funny with you , Wait .

Adventures in Gatlinburg and Mountains

So what happened this week ? Tony , you said I'm out of time for a conference .

Tony D.

I was going to tell you all . If you didn't see the video I did . I put one up on TikTok when I was walking around town showing everybody what it looks like around here . It's about 17 minutes , but the drive up us driving through the mountains is not for the week are you not telling us where did I miss , where you went ?

Rick Costa

yes , you did because it's very windy .

Carmen Lezeth

You mean and narrow , it's really windy okay no , you said conference , but I mean where in the country , or I said in gatlinburg , tennessee , oh are you gonna see joy didn't know way yeah , twice she's on the other side of the state .

Tony D.

there's a couple people in the state and they're not around here , and getting here , even where they're at , would take a couple of hours . Gotcha , because , honestly , I saw some of the healthiest deer I've ever seen in my life . These boys are huge . These boys are huge and healthy .

You know you'll see deer on TV and they're kind of small compared to these jokers in these mountains . You know what ? Puppet , let me go ahead and tell y to stop . I was like I mean , they literally just keep going .

I said okay , and then there's about four more with them and they're walking slow like senior citizens in their own neighborhood and I'm actually walking around . Two nights ago I was going to grab something to eat but everything was closed . I said no , something's open .

Cynthia Ruiz

I just saw the sign .

Tony D.

Bears just come out of anywhere and just walk around looking at you , so there's all types of wildlife and animalisms around here . But this is a nice little beautiful city . Honestly , anybody who knows any Gatlinburg , tennessee I highly recommend checking it out for a weekend . Plenty of food , plenty of activities , a good family atmosphere .

The kids will have something to do , the grown folks will have something to do , everybody's going to have something to eat and and it's cool it really is . Another city close by is Pigeon Forge . A couple people went over there , but I didn't , because I'm actually up here for a conference for the job for the week we're going back tomorrow .

Driving up here was , but I said I would never drive through the mountains again . I did it in 2010 and it was a little too much for me . This one was actually tighter turns . I had to drive 30 minutes uphill down here . I literally had to just put the car in neutral and keep my foot on the brake as I'm hitting curves and they are tight .

I've actually done this in an Escalade before and it terrified me because it's a two-lane road . You're making a curve and there's an 18-wheeler coming the opposite way . This time I'm going to stay up there and the equinox is tight . One lady got so tired of me being behind her .

I'm not even speeding , it's just because we're going down here and you hit your part and I'm hitting mine , and then it's dark , there's nothing on the other side , nobody's going to hear you . Oh , that is the best part . I saved this just for your show . I really did .

You know , when you're driving and you lose your signal on your phone , it'll say 5G , 5g plus LTE 5G and just go to 3G Mine dropped down to SOS .

Carmen Lezeth

Yeah , you can only call 911 , right that ?

Tony D.

wasn't the worst part . I've seen that before . What really got me was when the SOS left it all just so was a satellite insignia where my antenna was supposed to be . I've never seen that . I got to call an alien for help , and then it said SOL . There was a signal , I mean a little symbol of a damn satellite antenna . There was no signal whatsoever .

This was up in the mountains and people just pulled off sightseeing , looking over the cliffs . I would have stopped , but I'm like , no , I need to get the hell off this road . Get into my room , I need to go sit down , I need to recover .

Carmen Lezeth

It was because you weren't comfortable . I went to school in Vermont , so I totally get it .

Tony D.

I'm going to call it a real deer . You know what I mean . In Vermont , like I know , people have died .

Carmen Lezeth

They hit a deer in Vermont , like a real deer , and they died , you know .

Rick Costa

The person or the deer , or both the people , probably . Well the deer died .

Carmen Lezeth

But I mean it crushes your car because they're so big . You know what I mean .

Nazim Beltran

Oh yeah , if they're running through . And I have a friend his car got hit by a deer in the countryside . And it damaged the whole car because they just like they don't care .

Carmen Lezeth

Yeah , and you can't see them at night in those areas that Tony's talking about because there's no , there's not like lights everywhere and everything you know Trees , trees .

Tony D.

You can't even see the moon like this .
