00:07
Da da da. Now you say you have to say it
00:25
shout out to Universal.
00:26
Anyway, hi, welcome to,
00:29
to Lincoln Bio. My name is Alejandro and I'm here with
00:31
Jenny Arias and we are going to cover some top trending news
00:35
topics that you gotta know about.
00:38
let's do it. All right.
00:43
Sophia Vergara claps back at Pablo Motos.
00:48
Did you hear about this?
00:49
I did and I saw it and I would have been pissed
00:55
she was very furious indeed.
00:58
So she's doing an interview with this guy named Pablo Motos,
01:01
apparently of Spanish descent on or Miro,
01:04
right? I never heard of him or that show.
01:07
But what the clip that went viral is when Vergara talks to
01:13
so if you ever got us talking to Pablo Motos and they
01:16
start talking about their her modern family role and he starts
01:19
critiquing her English as she starts to tell her story and really
01:23
interrupts her and she's like,
01:33
Yeah. So actually we cannot show the video for
01:38
copyright purposes legal is working on that.
01:41
So we were thinking that we can kind of play out what
01:43
went down instead of,
01:45
you know, showing the clip.
01:46
So let's get into it re enactment.
01:49
So you'll be playing Sofia Vergara.
01:54
So, and I'll be playing Pablo Moto,
01:56
Motos. Sorry, Mos Mos.
02:02
Gloria Pri is my character in Modern Family.
02:06
wait, How do you say modern family?
02:08
How do I say it in English?
02:10
It's because in English,
02:11
I'm saying it wrong.
02:14
Oh No. 00 because you speak better English than me.
02:20
Yes, that's how bad it was like it was,
02:24
it was awkward. Like,
02:26
so basically like, let's explain it because I feel like it
02:29
was a little so basically Sophia is talking in Spanish saying that
02:33
she plays Gloria Prichett in Modern Family.
02:38
you know, our homegirl has an accent which I love.
02:43
oh, how do you say modern family?
02:45
And then she's like,
02:47
how do I say it in English?
02:50
Critique, critique your parents.
02:51
No way. I mean I've done it.
02:52
But is it Sophia Vergara we're talking about she can say modern
02:55
family however she wants.
02:57
Who is this guy to be like,
03:00
Wait, how'd you say it?
03:01
Like I get it because I've done that with my parents again
03:04
our friends. But oh,
03:05
it's Sophia, you don't call her out like that.
03:08
Yeah or anybody for that matter because that was kind of rude
03:10
I'm sorry that was freaking rude like on TV too.
03:14
You know what I'm gonna say is this man.
03:17
But anyways then she and then she the the the clap
03:21
back gets even better because let's just keep going.
03:23
So OK, so let's just take off you speak better
03:27
English than me. OK,
03:28
let start from there.
03:29
He says yes, I say yes.
03:32
And then I go ah and everyone's laughing,
03:36
the crowd's laughing and she's clearly not laughing.
03:39
She's just like mm but get to the best part.
03:43
And Sophia, how many more things are we gonna drop?
03:51
I think I do speak better English than you.
03:56
And then Sophia says,
03:58
how many Emmy nominations do you have in the US?
04:01
she's attacking his career now which is a gold in the US
04:08
and she goes and how many Golden Globe nominations we know
04:14
those Golden Globes? No.
04:16
Mayor? Right? They're not big awards.
04:20
Yeah. So essentially she claps back.
04:24
Calls him out on his lack of I was like,
04:30
what is that? We're not back here.
04:32
The awards are really getting away from Pablo.
04:35
This is essentially this is what it boiled down to and speaking
04:39
of careers. And tackle and pointing out people's careers,
04:42
they didn't know. And speaking of careers,
04:46
Sophia Vergara actually wanted to be a dentist.
04:49
Oh, damn. I could see that.
04:52
It is true. But like that's crazy.
04:57
so actually this is yours actually?
04:59
Ok. Ok. So I guess you can,
05:01
since we're not even running here,
05:03
like you, you can kind of segue that in.
05:05
Yeah. Ok. Anyways speaking in a certain bros,
05:13
oh, this is precisely what I wanted to pick your brain
05:17
up. OK. So because we were talking about growing up
05:20
Latino and just like our upbringing.
05:23
So there was a recent post that was circulating the web.
05:27
It's of Raul Molin from the go.
05:29
Have you seen the show?
05:32
This is always on like at three or 4 p.m. in the
05:34
afternoon. Manuela always has it on at four o'clock and then
05:38
she always scolds me when I don't tell her that it's coming
05:40
on like, do you know it's on every four o'clock porno
05:45
exactly. But essentially,
05:47
so the story goes that.
05:48
So the clip Raul is talking to Lily and he's putting his
05:51
daughter on blast for still living at their home at 23 years
05:54
old. And Lily even goes on to say like Raul since
05:58
why are you so American?
06:01
that is true. I think she's,
06:02
that was a nice way of saying,
06:04
bro. That's some white people shit.
06:09
hearing the parents, Latino parents was American parents like 18,
06:13
you're out the door,
06:14
you know, that was always my white friends.
06:16
But brother, we gotta,
06:17
we gotta put this important factor in this is literally on national
06:21
television. Like this man was going in on his daughter on
06:25
national television, like like there's that you can,
06:28
you can talk to like someone about it in private,
06:31
but literally was talking mad about his daughter on television.
06:38
I'm getting distracted. OK.
06:39
So then Raul keeps talking and again,
06:42
since you, so American this and that Raul has kind of
06:45
like his own little arguments with her and he's even,
06:47
she's even like, since when are you?
06:49
So American, you don't even speak English that well,
06:51
like again, just throw it like jabs at him.
06:59
I guess that's probably why they call him that.
07:01
But then he even has a rebuttal of like,
07:04
she's 18. She went to school already like,
07:06
and I, I'll get into my thoughts later.
07:08
But yeah, so then the show,
07:10
the clip he's going on,
07:11
they go to commercial break and they come back to the show
07:14
so sorry guys, I was on the phone with my wife
07:17
and she tells me that,
07:18
you know, it's not OK that I put,
07:19
you know, air r di laundry out on the air and
07:22
because my daughter's home and it's in that,
07:25
wait, she's still home.
07:28
And so that was like the end of the story essentially.
07:31
he called his daughter out,
07:32
Lily calls him out and daughter still lives at home at 23
07:38
Damn, he'd be pissed if I was his daughter.
07:40
I still live with my parents.
07:42
I, I was just about to say,
07:43
do you think like it's right for him to want his 23
07:46
year old daughter out of his like home?
07:48
I don't, I don't honestly,
07:51
I don't feel like it's he is the dad but I
07:55
don't think my parents would like be like,
07:56
OK, like bye like you're,
07:59
you're of age like yeah.
08:02
And so actually I'm gonna have you if you can
08:05
take a little break,
08:08
No, but I'm gonna have my comadre come through madre
08:11
because I actually wanna talk to a parent about this and see
08:14
what they think, hear their thoughts and opinions before we
08:18
you know, dive in deeper.
08:20
So if we can please present Michael Madre,
08:24
the Latino mom, Michael Madre.
08:29
How are you? You can use this if you want Pero

12:06

12:14
Huh? Huh. What was that?
12:16
Did you see? Did you hear what she had to share
12:21
I mean, I just wanted to hear a grown ups opinion
12:27
Hey, hey, don't twist my words here.
12:30
Just because I still live with my parents.
12:32
I never said that she's the one that's like OK.
12:36
Anyways next story Burger King,
12:45
you know Burger King,
12:46
right? The home of the whopper.
12:48
El Rey de Los Ambur de las ambur.
12:53
Will you have it your way?
12:55
The Burger King. Wait on.
12:57
So speaking of Burger King,
13:00
the whopper junior is actually Puerto Rican.
13:04
No way. Let me tell you.
13:08
so let me on one f day in 1963 on the island
13:12
of Puerto Ric. There was a franchise that was going to
13:17
open up and start selling some whoppers,
13:19
you know, the whopper,
13:20
the whopper, whopper,
13:24
there's a whopper. There we go.
13:25
That's kind of depressing looking whopper.
13:33
that's why it looks like,
13:35
like when they're packaging,
13:36
I guess it's actually authentic then.
13:38
Anyway, sorry. Burger King,
13:40
please contact us for any ads.
13:42
But anyways, so the whopper junior was born in Puerto
13:45
Rico because a franchise needs all the ingredients,
13:49
right? And unfortunately the bread didn't come through.
13:53
So he goes to local Panaderia to kind of get something similar
13:56
to the bun of the whopper.
13:58
And it actually comes out a little teensy bit smaller a,
14:01
a junior size if you will.
14:03
And the whopper junior was born and the island of it's
14:08
not in Canto. That's Colombia,
14:09
right? Is that it Puerto Rico Island of in Canto?
14:12
Anyways point is the whopper Junior is Puerto Rican boricua boricua.
14:18
Oh, you know what's up boricua burger,
14:22
boricua burger. Thank you.
14:24
I love it. That's way better than the whopper Junior.
14:30
I, I'm, I'm getting news that we have someone on
14:33
the island of Puerto Rico actually dialing in.
14:35
That was they were there le let's patch them in hue hue
14:52
to Mira La Primera Que como El Whoop Junior in Puerto Rico
14:57
Quinon. Que mi casa.
14:59
So you were the f one of the first ones to consume
15:02
the whopper Junior? Yes.
15:04
Yes. So, I was in the beach with my,
15:06
my cousin Villi Virgilio.
15:09
Mur. And, but she was doing the lets diet at
15:13
that moment. Do you,
15:14
do you know the lettuce diet?
15:17
the protein style or whatever?
15:20
Let's diet here. And Puerto Rico e to come to me
15:25
that we're talking about the whopper junior and Tosa.
15:28
Yo, y be in porque la la.
15:34
And so I went to Burger King and I ordered a,
15:36
a whopper and they were like,
15:38
no, look at the Nemo whopper Junior.
15:39
Yoel whopper Junior, Leli del del whopper.
15:42
And long story short,
15:44
I ate it and I was the 1st 10 my God.
15:50
That's a pioneer right there.
15:52
She was there. I should go on,
15:54
on the Guinness record.
15:58
So, so what year was this like?
15:59
When did this all go down to Seii Tie?
16:09
Well, let me get your your face care routine because

17:14
Well, Lauren you know,
17:16
thank you for your time.
17:17
I I don't wanna eat up your data.
17:19
So we're gonna let you go.
17:21
But hopefully we can grab,
17:22
grab a whopper junior sometime because you know,
17:24
I wanna have a talk with you about this iconic experience.
17:32
self care. Sunday kind of vibe.
17:41
oh she left. Oh oh OK.
17:58
Oh well breaking news,
18:03
Ecuador is in a state of emergency.
18:10
whopper junior. It's like,
18:11
hey, so Ecuador is fucking always,
18:15
this is a serious matter.
18:16
I know that's why I was like,
18:18
how do I take myself seriously?
18:19
OK. Oh oh literally.
18:25
Oh no. But so switching to a more serious matter
18:30
there's actually a bunch of stuff happening in Ecuador right now
18:33
I don't know if you've heard they recently hit a
18:35
60 day state of emergency ordered by the president because of some
18:41
big like gang cartel leader,
18:46
a mass is disappearing from prison.
18:49
And since then, there's been a bunch of riots.
18:52
you know, organized crime at universities at a TV station,
18:57
a live feed where the guy was literally held at gunpoint during
19:03
the segment. And I mean,
19:06
this is a terrifying time for Ecuadorians.
19:08
there's been at least six more incidents in other prisons
19:11
So it's not just like the initial one when he escaped
19:13
it's just been a chaos.
19:16
Ok? But this is actually a lot to unpack.
19:18
And so I need this explained by a pro by a professional
19:22
So we're gonna have a guest.
19:23
Come on, his name is Sergio Maldonado.
19:26
Sergio is a phd candidate in history from the University
19:28
of California Riverside, whose research field is modern Latin America where
19:32
they focus on transnational Mexican history.
19:35
So we're gonna get Sergio on Sergio.
19:40
You, nice to meet you.
19:42
Very good. Happy to be here.
19:42
Happy to be part of,
19:45
Thank you for the time.
19:48
I know this is a serious topic with that's going on in
19:50
Ecuador right now. We tried to break it down a
19:54
little bit but we wanted to get a pros opinion and kind
19:57
of explain this to us like we're five.
20:00
do you mind breaking down again.
20:03
Yeah, what's happening?
20:05
Yeah. Yeah, totally.
20:07
So now I know we understand this crisis within
20:12
Ecuadorian borders, but to really understand this in its complexity,
20:16
we got to see it in a much broader context.
20:19
So the way we need to understand the crisis is through
20:22
a transnational lens really because Ecuador is between two major cocaine
20:27
producing countries, right?
20:32
although Ecuador is in a producing place,
20:36
right? So, and it's a corridor that leads to places
20:38
like Mexico and then of course,
20:40
the places where they consume cocaine in the United States and Europe
20:44
And what's really important to know is that Colombia specifically
20:48
they're increasing their cocaine production because there was an increase
20:53
in demand post pandemic.
20:55
And so this is really complicating things because there is now
20:58
a huge, huge increasing market for cocaine.
21:01
and globally it's over 100 and $30 billion annually.
21:07
Yeah, so that's more than the the GDP of Ecuador
21:10
So this is very complicated situation and for us to understand
21:14
it more completely, we need to understand its broader connections to
21:18
Europe, the United States and its neighboring countries.
21:23
Wow. Yeah, I knew the consumption was definitely high
21:28
but again, there's so many players that again,
21:30
in this game, it's not just Ecuador,
21:33
but unfortunately, at this time,
21:35
the crazy shit that's happening is in Ecuador because of,
21:40
again, all these factors surrounding it.
21:43
And I mean, we really got to understand the
21:47
American role in this,
21:48
you know, the average citizen,
21:49
average person because the consumption so rampant here that there's
21:55
so we like to see these crisis in Ecuador specifically
21:59
from an outside perspective.
22:00
But we need to understand that American society is intrinsically connected to
22:04
this and it goes back to the war on drugs that really
22:06
began to take place in the 19 seventies and 19 eighties.
22:10
And I, I I've been seeing that the president himself,
22:14
people are calling him out as well.
22:15
Is there some kind of like connection?
22:20
so not even a solution but like what can actually be controlled
22:23
I feel like people aren't really confident in his position and
22:29
his power to get this like under control.
22:31
Are we speaking about boa,
22:33
is that correct? Yes.
22:38
he's a pretty new president.
22:40
So right now, it's really kinda hard.
22:43
we are in the thick of the crisis.
22:45
So trying to see a clear solution is very,
22:48
very difficult. And I think one of the major problems
22:52
right now that he's gonna face that's gonna determine a lot
22:55
of what's to come is his immediate actions.
22:59
So what I mean is he declared war quote unquote on these
23:03
cartels which is problematic because these aren't uniformed people in the streets
23:09
There's no real clear indication of who the enemy is.
23:12
It's very hard, it could blend into society.
23:15
So this is gonna make things very,
23:17
very difficult. And it's gonna take AAA larger effort,
23:20
not just with Nabo by himself,
23:23
but with other countries,
23:25
you know, Colombia and Peru and to some extent
23:30
they need to figure out a way to end this appetite for
23:33
cocaine. Jeez. I mean,
23:37
do you think realistically there is gonna be some kind of like
23:43
team like bonding together for this?
23:48
I don't, I don't think so.
23:52
it's going to be it's going to be
23:55
a very difficult thing to achieve because of just how prolific
24:01
and entrenched A lot of these gangs and cartels are in
24:04
Ecuador so much like Mexico,
24:06
for example, these cartels have infiltrated positions of power
24:11
the military, the police and it's pretty common throughout Latin
24:14
America just in general.
24:16
So it's it's a hemispheric problem.
24:19
and Ecuador is just one symptom of a much larger issue
24:23
So it's gonna take a lot of effort.
24:26
I am not sure what that should look like or what it
24:29
will look like. Jeez.
24:33
yeah, it sounds like again,
24:35
there's so much to tackle here.
24:36
It's only fresh on the surface,
24:38
but we really appreciate you dialing in and breaking this down
24:41
explain all the moving pieces that we can kind of cover in
24:45
a short time. But hopefully we can talk to you
24:49
circle back on this and touch base to get a bigger explanation
24:54
Thank you for having me.
24:58
Appreciate no problem. Goodbye.
25:00
Goodbye. Yeah, that's my,
25:03
I'm I'm code switching.
25:12
Circle back. Let's touch base circle back.
25:15
Let me take a anyways.
25:25
So what was the next one,
25:26
Myra? So let's you want a segue into it?
25:29
Yeah. Yeah. All segue I'm like,
25:33
yeah, it's like you wanna so in out of their news
25:39
speaking of politics,
25:41
Republican politician,
25:43
Myra Flores has allegedly this is a little weird passed off several
25:51
stolen photos of Mexican food as her own cooking and the public
25:56
is putting her on blast.
25:58
So where she get these pictures from,
26:02
from other I guess from other people from like Facebook from like
26:08
Look boom. I think what she does too on some of
26:11
them. I've noticed her,
26:12
she zooms in a little bit more so it kind of like
26:18
that, that's, that's the the same picture the same picture
26:21
and they did not get it from her.
26:26
but I, I don't know,
26:28
I don't know. Why are you taking other people's pictures?
26:35
it just sounds like a weird thing to do.
26:36
Like, you can literally go to a random Mexican restaurant,
26:39
but this is probably again an official like there's a ca there's
26:43
picture credit and everything.
26:45
So it's just interesting that she's doing this.
26:46
Like I could like give less of a excuse my friends.
26:50
I could give less of a shit if someone thinks my Gordita
26:53
look good. I don't know.
26:54
I'm just saying like,
26:56
why wait, but actually I have some evidence from the
27:00
Texas Tribune. So shout out to them.
27:03
that quote, it wasn't her intention to mislead.
27:08
She just said that the photo simply reminded me of my upbringing
27:12
in Mexico and childhood.
27:13
I deleted the tweet to clear up any confusion.
27:16
Oh Can we go back on the other photo?
27:18
Actually the the one that you guys had on before this.
27:22
So let's see, the ranch life with my family is the
27:26
the ranch and familia as lo mejor.
27:29
Girl, it kinda sounds like you're taking credit for that
27:32
photo. I don't know what you think,
27:33
brother. Yeah, I mean like it's different like,
27:35
oh my God, this reminds me of home that's different but
27:38
she was like out on the ranch just vibing,
27:41
you know, like Rancho vibes that's a little different Myra.
27:46
I'm not a politician.
27:47
I'm just a social media guy here at me too.
27:49
Leave them in. 00 So guys,
27:55
we actually have the actual pictures of her cooking the inside scoop
28:02
We I will not name the source where we got it
28:06
from. They sent us photos.
28:08
A Chismosa sent us photos.
28:10
I'm not gonna name the Chismosa.
28:11
Anyways, what the fuck is that?
28:17
That looks to me like an avocado toast with Valentina.
28:23
Mm This sounds more like Myra's cup of tea.
28:26
Not gonna lie. I don't think she know how to pick
28:29
a good Avoca and sorry to say it like that.
28:31
I kind of avocado Avoca.
28:34
this actually looks like it's straight from Myra's kitchen.
28:37
A little smiley face.
28:38
That's Rancho life. That's hashtag vibes right there.
28:40
