My name is John Abina. This is Chikuma. Whenever I can make it. My Primos Podcast discusses all things fandom and pop culture. From comic books, movies, to whatever obsession we have this week. But with the Latine, Latine, Latine perspective. Remember, we're all Primos. We're all Primas. Primas. Primos.

[00:00:34] No matter what part of the world we're from. Thank you guys. I'm good. All right. Whenever you're ready, Elia. Take it away. All right. Primos, Primas, and Primas. And welcome to My Primos Podcast. Today, we are joined by all the Primos and Primas. But look at that. Look at us. All there at once. Like I'm caressing the microphone to welcome you all in.

[00:01:08] I got chills. As prophesized. I got chills. This is me hugging and embracing all of you, welcoming you into this new episode, everybody. Consensually. I'm not shocked or excited because of the show. Chikuma, I'm shocked or excited because someone just brought me a cocktail de camarones out of nowhere. Stop! That looks so good. Oh my God. With the limon? Mary head. Okay, well. Why do we not all have some? You know what? I know. End of the show. No, I'm kidding. Cut. Cut. No, keep going, Elia.

[00:01:38] You're doing great. No, but welcome in. My name is Prima Elia, a.k.a. Spice Illustrations, a.k.a. I don't have any other nicknames. Welcome. And today, I'm joined by- She's the spice in our life. I'm the spice of life. I'm the spice of life. And I'm joined by all my primos. And the spice must flow. The spice must flow. Speaking of flow and filling the hole, we're joined by Kevin Garcia. Kevin Garcia, how are you? Look.

[00:02:04] Yes. Look at that. All of those things. The dogs are out. Look. Piggies out. Piggies out with Kevin. Look at that. Hey, look. When you got it, you fought it. It's true. I guess those tiny feet, man. Let's, uh. Hey, you know what they say? Tiny feet? Big heart. And we're also joined by resident foot shamer, Primo Freddy. Hey, hey. I appreciate a good foot when I see a good foot. Trust me, I do. Let's quote that one. Primo Freddy.

[00:02:34] So, that's gonna be the new one for this season. I've never seen a foot. I'm not a fan of the foot. I'm on the good foot. I'm on the good foot. Always, always gonna start on the right foot. Yeah. On the right foot. The right one. And we are also joined by John Avenia. John Avenia, how are you doing? Good. How's it going? It's going. It's going. We're happy to have you. Yes. I'm excited to be on. Heck yeah. And finally. Yeah.

[00:03:04] From the abyss. From the abyss. May still be in the abyss. We have no confirmation. I stare at the, he stare at the back. He's in the witness protection program. We have Chikume. How are you, Chikume? I'm just chilling. Chilling. Straight chilling. Chilling in the gotholes somewhere. If you could smell, if you could smell what I just ate. I just had a Yoshinoya from LA. My mom brought it. She landed it. You're lying. You have a Yoshinoya?

[00:03:33] Anybody, anybody, you guys know what Yoshinoya is? No. Japanese fast food. But it's for like a hundred, what is it? Hundreds of years old. It's like one of the first original chains of my fast food chains that they made. It's like teriyaki, chicken, beef, vegetables. I used to work there. Yeah, you used to manage there or something. I was a manager there. You were the chef or something? I went to bowl school. I went to learn how to weigh bowls.

[00:04:01] It's like the Whataburger of Whataburger University. Kind of like that, yeah. I wore orange and blue. That was our colors, you know? That was our colors. Damn, Chogyoshi Noya. Nice to know you. Well, Elia, you have John and Chikume and Kevin Garcia. It's the whole gang here. The gang's all here. I know. The gang's all here. This is mi familia. La familia. Estamos primos. But you know, one thing I wanted to bring to light is that this season, we officially

[00:04:31] have John Avina on as a full-time, part-time host. He is part of the primos here. He is part of the fam. So everybody out there that's been like, man, where's that cool John Avina guy? And I go, well, guess what? He's on our show now. Yep. Immilately. My mom was the one writing those letters. It's true. I was like, she's very nice. I'll thank her. She is our best fan. She's like 50% of our fan base. So I love it. Exactly, man. You know what? I appreciate moms, man. Definitely. Definitely. Mm-hmm. But John, you're on the show now.

[00:05:01] I'm excited to have you on as part of the team. Not only that, but we have so much to get hyped for. You know, we wanted to shoot this short episode here just because we wanted to give attention to the show ourselves, right? Everyone here has made this show what it is. And we're going to grow and growing and growing. Elia Chikuman, his ethereal form, because he lives in the dark. And of course, Mr. Kevin Garcia. Now, Mr. John Avina. John, man, I mean, this is your little spotlight moment, man.

[00:05:29] Like, what do you want to say to the primos coming on board? And what can the primos look forward with John Avina joining the primos? There's a lot of Simpsons references. Get ready. Just need one of those. You need one. You know, a little bit of column A, a little bit of column B. Grandpa Simpson. All the way. Are you a Grandpa Simpson, Kevin Garcia? I am. You know, back in my day, you know, because they used to have this thing that we called television. And I know today you guys have your tubes on your U's and stuff.

[00:05:59] The hell you say. We called it television. And you would go to it each day. And we called it the tube because it came to us through tubes in the air. But that was why we called it the air. Thank you, Kevin Garcia. I appreciate that. It was a style at the time. I can keep going. It was a style at the time. We know. I mean, we're full circle back to weekly episodes. And now we're paying for them. So imagine that. I know. Yeah. We got away from cable only to buy, like, different cable installations.

[00:06:28] Apparently they don't trust me with, you know, not binging through it, but in one night. Yeah. See, they took you with the whole binging thing. Like, look, we give it to you all at once. And now that you're hooked, you're a piece by piece. Yeah. No, but it's fucked up because I want to watch the Invincible. The new season of Invincible came out and they teased me with three episodes. And I'm like, piss because I need the next one. But I appreciate. Yeah. I appreciate. Spider-Man's doing the opposite. And I don't know why. Every week for Friendly Neighborhood Spine. Yeah. Three episodes every week for. Why? They did that for What If?

[00:06:57] Because it seemed like Marvel was kind of embarrassed by What If? Because the first season wasn't super well received. So, like, look, we're giving it to you one a day until it's gone. But, like, Spider-Man, there's nothing to be embarrassed about except for, you know, the main voice actor. But other than that, like, the show's good. Why throw it out so quickly? Why not stretch it out? You know? I don't get it. I think it's to appease certain audiences, maybe. Like, kind of like, hey, here's some. And here's a little bit for you. A little bit for the column A, column B, you know, aforementioned.

[00:07:24] Because if you think about it, there are those that want to watch all of it. They don't want to bother with, you know. Like, Elia, you've been right. Yeah, I'm a little bit of both. Like, right now, White Lotus is coming out. And I'm actually really grateful it's coming out week by week, not all at once. But, like, sometimes I don't have time to sit and watch everything. But eventually when I do, I have just that amount of time window. So if I can just, like, knock out, like, eight episodes in the go, I will. If that's what I do during my break.

[00:07:52] I don't have the brainpower to binge a show. Like, I will get very tired. Like, the last time I tried to binge a show, it was the last season of Stranger Things, which I binged specifically for my Primo's podcast so we could do a review. And it never happened. Hey, man, you took a great bullet for the team, okay? You now have knowledge of season four, Stranger Things, that nobody else does, by the way. I didn't like season three, and season four was actually good. Savina, did you watch Stranger Things? I do, yeah.

[00:08:21] My son was dressed like that Eddie Munson guy. Like, we did, like, a whole photo shoot with him because they had a Stranger Things pop-up, like, event thing. So, yeah, it was cool. He won, like, some costume contest. He likes the theme song. Yeah. That counts. He likes, like, yeah. Yeah, he's a big fan of synth music, so I'm like, all right. Hell, yeah. He's very 80s. Yeah. Child of the 80s. It's funny, my kid told me that he wants to, he's going to focus on keyboards and synthesizers now, too. So, that's interesting. That's cool.

[00:08:50] He's going to do the editing and the theme song. And our theme song. Yeah. So, yeah, that is going to be... Shout out to Jimmy, the editor, by the way. You know, making this happen for us. Heck yeah. So, I appreciate you. Amen. Get it in on time. Get it in on time. Dang. Oof. That's a thing, man. Or else your grades will suffer. Or the grades can suffer, but as long as you get the podcast on on time, we're okay. Yeah, yeah. Fuck that education. Priorities. You know what, man? I was teacher, I endorsed that. Fuck algebra one. You know? Yo, for real. I don't know algebra one. It's math.

[00:09:19] I don't really prove to math, anyway. I like math. Elia's a mathlete. Is she? I do. I used to be a math tutor. Go get it. You're the one. Elia, you need to be a math tutor for my kid. I'm going to make sure that's your next project. Hey, I did that hard problem on my stream for you. That's true. I walked it through. Hey, how come you don't do, like, homework hotline on your stream? Like, that'd be fun. I should. You should have that homework down in one, like that little kid that called the police for advice. I'm sorry. I'm being rude. That cocktail is, like...

[00:09:48] I mean, no, but if I was presented with that, I would be eating in front of y'all and not apologizing, for real. Yeah. It looked so good. We all have these cool, like, things that people don't know about us, right? Like, we always talk about the show. Ichikume is, like, this being that will one day will appear. If we say his name, like, four times, he'll summon. I promise. Maybe. I don't know. Like a demon. But what's great is that we always talk about, you know, we're big on our... A visitor. We have a visitor. See? It's nice.

[00:10:18] What did you bring you? It's for him. A Capri Sun. Because... Hell yeah. Oh, John, could you prepare a Capri Sun for me, too? It's in the mail. I love the storm. If you made a Capri Sun, I would laugh and smile if I just... No, perfect. And if I was already in it, I would be like, dang, you know. Oh, on the rim? Yeah. Nice. Nice. I don't know. Would a Capri Sun and Tahin go? What? What? What? Yeah.

[00:10:46] Like, you can probably use it to stop the road, man. Like, what are you coming from? You can put it around cereal, you know? If you give me 30 seconds, we can test this. Tahin on the cereal bowl. You have to melt your driveway. I have some breaking news from my mother. I don't know if anyone is in an area with H-E-Bs, but apparently shrimp boils have started again. So if you are interested in getting a shrimp boil, they're being sold at H-E-B. Is that a... Hold on. I'm not familiar. Hashtag not sponsored. That's a shrimp boil.

[00:11:16] Not sponsored, but I'm literally like, I will sell my soul to get a sponsorship by H-E-B. I love them so much. So H-E-B, for our listeners who don't know, it's a grocery store chain that's usually just in, like, South Texas, but they've slowly made their way to North Texas. They're also in West Texas, but they have, like, everything. Very Latino friendly and have lots of fun snacks and foods, but they have a really fun, like, deli slash, like, fresh food area.

[00:11:42] And sometimes, when it's seasonal, they do shrimp and crawfish boils. And you can buy them there. Like, they bring big old barrels of already made boils, and you can buy them there. Like, I think I've seen it at the Frisco location a couple times, and they do it out in West Texas where my mom is. So I guess the time is now. And what do they give you that year? Here, everybody's butt? Something like that. Well, remember the... Yeah, his last name's butt. It's just so weird, yeah. I keep saying they should just call it butts foods, but they never listen to me.

[00:12:13] Oh, my God. You know, at H.E.B. is like, you don't think about buying food at a chain grocery store, except I've always had good memories of the food at H.E.B. Like, I used to go weekly to go get gorditas, which we've discussed before on our show. Big pupusa. Exactly. At H.E.B. Lazy pupusa. And then when they started selling sushi, I was like, man, there's no way she would give it there. It was good. Yeah. Yeah, the sushi one at the here in Frisco. I thought the same thing. I'm like, oh, this isn't going to be good.

[00:12:42] And it was good. And then the one that I grew up with is a tiny sushi. Apparently, the H.E.B. in Austin is now doing pit barbecue or something, but I've not tasted Yeah, the one in Frisco does barbecue, too. I was like, okay. Each one's got fun, different stuff. Dude, for real. Yeah. Their bakery's still okay sometimes, but... What are you going to help with, John? Do you have any, like, Mexican or Latino-centric grocery chains or stores over there? Or are they just... Yeah, it's still tacos. I mean, I'm very picky about my tortillas, but it's... Yeah.

[00:13:13] Yeah. Yeah, you pick them in itself, too. I do. We make them, and then I bring them home the same day, and then the moment they go to the fridge, I'm just like, I got, like, two days, and I'm going to throw them out. Where can people buy really good tortillas in the Chicago area, John Avina? Everywhere. So if you go to Pete's Market, we're there. Sabinas on 18th Street. You can come say hi to me. We actually have my comics up on the wall. If they're there, what are they looking for? Sabinas? That's the name of the torteria. We're on the show of the bear. That's what I'm saying. So it's Sabinas. All right. There we go. There we go.

[00:13:43] Yeah. That show of the bear, the last season, they go to a torteria. Like, it shows the girl going back to work. It was filmed at our torteria. My uncle's hands are there. Yeah. So you had the thing there, huh? Yeah. Yeah. The thing was there. That's so cool. Interesting. So basically, whenever anybody comes by the store, you're like, here's the thing, and you just point to the photo. It's literally the other five-star Michelin rated or what? Close enough. There's, like, a picture of my abuelito. There's comics.

[00:14:13] And then there's, like, the photo sets from the bear. Just everywhere. I'm just like, I see how it is. Not one photo of me. Dang. I was going to say, I'm actually there. That still counts. We are making one for the torteria. Like, the process of how the torterias get made. So I got to write it and have it illustrated and all that. So my uncle's, like, putting it out. Yeah. It's really cool. Man, look, making content, man. It's all you do. Always making, making stuff. That's what I got to do. Making stuff. Look at Kevin.

[00:14:40] Wasn't there everything everywhere all at once? Yeah. Have a scene? The hands. The sausages on the hands. It was a little weird. I couldn't do that. I couldn't do that episode. Everything else was cool. Like, that scene of the hot dog fingers. Couldn't do it. Everything else I was okay with. Even though everything up the butt and, I mean, all that stuff. There was cut content of, like, appendage fingers. Yeah. Yes. Thank you. Up the butt. Fine. Hot dogs. Draw on the line. No. Because they bite their fingers.

[00:15:09] And it just, like, it triggered this weird, like... And there was, for some reason, condiments inside the hot dogs. Like, ew. Kevin's hand looks like a John Carpenter creature, and I love it. Definitely. But what I was trying to get at is that we all, you know, have interests beyond what we usually cover on the show. We have shared interests, but we have other interests outside of that, right? You know, I'm into gaming. Everybody has a touch in gaming, but I really wanted to do that. And I wanted to talk about things that we're going to bring onto the show, you know, kind of little sneak peeks at what we're working on as a team and as a podcast.

[00:15:39] But not only that, but just beyond the podcast. So, I have a confession to make. This could be a surprise to a lot of you. I read comic books. What? What? I have been accused of being... You have to go. ...a comic book geek. Nerd. You're a nerd. And there's the killer, bringing us back. There you go, bringing you back. Yeah, but I mean... But yeah, exactly like that. Exactly like that, right? But you actually still, you know, that's our thing.

[00:16:07] We want to just talk about what we want to talk about, right? And I think what I'm gearing towards is that we want the primos out there listening and watching us to know that we are going to try to expand what the primos do. So, we want to go beyond what we're doing now, primos. And the fun part about it is that you all can be a part of it. We all have different interests. Keep talking. Keep talking. You're interested, Kevin Garcia? I'm very interested. You woke up when I said, you can be involved. I like being involved in things. You know, I love that he keeps interrupting me, too.

[00:16:37] Isn't that the best part about Kevin Garcia, everybody? It used to be Chikume that would just cut me off with a big sniff. Like, you know, I'm like, oh, thanks. I needed that. You know, now. There's a Chikume-shaped hole and, you know. Yeah, now. Now, right? Now, Kevin Garcia is there. What are you drinking? Hurry. But primos, we're going to start rolling out a Patreon. My primos are going to roll out with my primos productions. Going to be a Patreon that you can be a part of, be a producer, help us make cool shit

[00:17:06] to a different level. You know, and we're excited about it. We have John coming on board. Elia, of course, always here. Everybody on this stream, everybody on this chat, everybody on this podcast, we're going to be making content for you, exclusively for you on the Patreon. And we want your help. We want to make sure you guys are involved. Tell us what you want to see. We all have different, like, sections of the geekdom that we enjoy, of the fandom that we enjoy, and things we want to just share with the primos.

[00:17:34] So I'm going to put people on the spot right now because Mr. John Avena being the new kid on the block. Oh, oh, oh. New kid. New kid. You got the right stuff, John Avena. Huh? Dax, too. It's back. Oh, wait. That's the... No, that's not. We don't do that. We don't do that here. Sorry. Isn't there a whole thing with Dax Street Boys and, like, male prostitution? Like, I don't know. I don't even... What? Yeah, like, I don't know. For a conversation. That was so casual. For the Patreon.

[00:18:04] For the Patreon. You know? You never know. For Patreon. Save it for the Patreon. But, John, you know, what's one thing that you're going to try to maybe bring on to the, for the people that they're in the Patreon, the exclusive level? I love cooking. It's, like, one of my, like, secret pleasure things. I like feeding people. I like making people happy with food. So, I'm going to do, like, a cooking segment. Maybe rant about comics or whatever. Just talking through stuff. But, also cooking and finding joy. Because, uh, there's Anthony Bourdain quote that's, like, everyone should know how to feed themselves and, like, their friends.

[00:18:33] And I'm a big believer of that. And I love him. So, I learned to cook watching his show. And, I mean, we're going to make weird food, too. Like, I like cooking lengua and stuff. So, we're going to do that. Yeah. And we're going to do everything from, like, learning to pick meat and produce and all that stuff and making your own tortillas at home. And, yeah. We're going to do it. Dude, I'm interested. I'm a huge fan of food. Right? Yeah, me too. Yeah, but the problem I have is that, like, none of us can compete with that. Because that's amazing. I know. You should have gotten it last. For real. Right.

[00:19:03] Like, fuck my drag, right, Elia? Fuck my drag. Fuck my drag. Mm-hmm. Damn, John. Wow. I put him on the spot and he blew us out. I'm already going to be a patron. So, I can watch that. We have to be a patron. What about you, Elia? What are you going to be bringing to the table, maybe? So, what I'm going to try to bring to the table is just basically ranting about anything I watch. I'm going to bring Wednesdays. Wecap Wednesdays. That's right. Recap with a W. I'm down for that.

[00:19:33] I like alliteration. I like watching different shows. Heck, maybe there'll be a movie that's coming out that everyone wants to hear about. And I will just sit there and talk about it, give you my two cents. Might throw in a little recap doodles in there so I don't get sued for copyright. Right? And I'll just talk about what I just watched. And we're going to start out with White Lotus that just premiered. So, I'm going to be recapping White Lotus on HBO. I've watched the first two seasons. I've heard good things about this. And so, yeah. Yeah. I think it's a really fun show.

[00:20:03] Rimos, if we get enough producers behind it, I think we need like a drawn summary, Elia, of your recaps. I'm so down. Yeah. Like a fun, just your version of a summary of an episode drawn in your style. Oh, my God. Would be so much fun. Rimos, you've got to come on the Patreon. Definitely, definitely, definitely. Heck, yeah. Well, me, I'll go here for Kevin and Mr. Chikume. But I am a big gamer. I love video games, tabletop games.

[00:20:32] Well, everybody here has a taste on that, too. But I'm going to try to bring you something game-related, be it some gameplay, be it some breakdowns, even have some guest stars from the primos as well. Just go over some deck tech for me and John. Or we can go into some, we can finally finish that game, Elia. We know the thirsty suitors. I don't know. Yeah. We can make that happen, right? Yeah. That'd be some fun stuff to play there. And just, you know, whatever you guys want to watch. I really want to make that my exclusive thing for Patreon. Oh, yeah.

[00:20:59] Chikume, I know you're like a gaseous being that just barely comes on sometimes. But what are you going to try to bring to the table, man? You're looking at me right now, buddy. Oh, hey, yo. Look, Chikume will guest star in any of ours whenever he has the chance. You'll pay me not to do anything. I'll pay you to not grow corn, like the government with farmers, right? Yeah, exactly. But Chikume is going to be involved. Of course, he's always been involved behind the scenes.

[00:21:28] But he wants to be on screen to show his support. Yeah. But Kevin Garcia, you said you literally put yourself out there as the comic book geek. I do a lot of TikToks. And there's something people have been asking to see for a while. And I think they should see it. Honestly? Only by that. I mean, only by that. I mean. Oh, not that. No. Oh, you have a separate one for that. What does that mean? What does that mean? What does that mean? What does that mean? What does that mean? People have been asking for a long time.

[00:21:57] You know, I do talk a lot about old comics. How about new comics? And they're like, well, why don't you just review the new ones that come out? So I'm like, you know what? I could. I mean, it's mostly going to be Marvel reviews, I'll be honest with you, because I just read a crap ton of Marvel every week. But yeah, that and very, very odd Savage Dragon. But anyway, yeah, I could talk about that. And I think if we could maybe get a couple of us together or maybe even one of us once a week, Daredevil is starting soon. I think it'd be really cool if we could, you know, review other shows like that. Not just White Lotus, but other shows on a regular basis.

[00:22:28] I think that'd be fun, man. Especially if the Primos are down to go on there or say we'll have more details as the weeks come. We're looking to launch very soon. Just stay tuned, of course, on the socials and of course, myprimospodcast.com. And we want everybody's involved and let us know what you want to see. If you're enjoying some, hey, you know what? I don't mind being a guest star on Elia's stream or John's show if you ever send me something. I wish that John could share some food. What? Hey. Share some food.

[00:22:55] I'll do my version of HelloFresh, send you guys stuff that's probably gone bad. That's right. I'll take it. Hi, welcome to another unboxing. Hello, it was fresh. I do the tappy tap. It was fresh. It was fresh. You know, they get an unboxing of chips, you know, they become just dust. It's like, what do you earn a buck? I mean, it could be, you know, it was good when you put it in. Is there food or not? I just imagine you doing a boxing video for your food. You're like, we got an order of tortillas now, so we're sending this to Texas. Right.

[00:23:25] Packing it away. I smoke just as much as they do on the show The Bear Tays. It's just going to be me with the cigarette and me yelling at Ben. Sit over here, man. Is Ben going to start quoting Cousin or something? He has a little kitchen playset that's behind my desk over here, and we do play, like, kitchen, and it turns into every episode of The Bear because it's me and him yelling at each other. No. About food. I'll tell you he keeps coming around here with attitude. I like it next time.

[00:23:55] Yeah, I like it. I dressed him up like the linguine from Ratatouille, and I even put, like, the little mouse on him when he was little. So my new thing for him is Tiny Chef. For some reason, I was imagining him being the little mouse on your shoulder. You're sitting yearling weaning. We do that from time to time, but he, like, rips my hair out, so now I'm afraid I'm going bald. It's all about how to control you, man. Blame it on the kid. Blame it on the kid, man. Blame it on the kid. I do. I do. I do. I blame it on the kid. You know? Look, guys, I've seen my hair fall out again.

[00:24:24] I shaved it since last time. Man. I really like the dew, though. It was really good. I mean, it was just, I let it go. You know, we're wild. I had a beard and everything. Not as good as Kevin, but it was, you know. It looks so beautiful. I thought the natural locks were good. I'm like to have Freddie grow his hair for the patron. Ooh. Wow, the nice Patreon exclusives. Yeah. Yeah. Unboggling. You put it on Patreon. If we get to how many patrons? How many patrons? Let it grow out. Let it grow out more than two.

[00:24:54] He will grow his nose. If you want to go look at a preview, go look at Strapping Young Lad. That's a band. Go look at that and then tell me that's what it looks like. Okay. But, Primos, you know, we want to just kind of say thank you all for, you know, just hanging in there with us. We are going to bring, you know, so much fun to the show as well as the Patreon. We want everybody to just participate, like we said. And everybody here is going to be involved. Everybody here is going to have a hand in it. Everybody's, Primos helping Primos, right? Or a foot.

[00:25:24] Or a foot. Yeah. Thank you. Don't do that because now Kevin's going to start doing this creepy. Nope. Nope. Not when you expect that. Not for free? Nope. Not for free? Nope. That's how that works. There's scary stuff. But I want to just, you know, I'm going to let everybody go around the room here before we close out tonight. But just kind of say, you know, what you have hopes for for the season. Not only the season, but the Patreon and kind of this year where we're going, how we're growing. You know, I'll go ahead and shoot with Kevin Garcia. Go ahead with you, man. Let's start it.

[00:25:52] Oh, I'm just excited for all the different projects we're working on. I know Vina probably has like 20 comic books on the road, ready to go. I'm definitely trying to get my next issue out. Still waiting for publishers to publish the things that I've already given them. And, you know, I'm looking forward to upcoming events. We got BIPOC Pop, which we're going to be at and talk about. Southby is coming up. A lot of us are going to be busy with that kind of stuff. And then, you know, everything else comes after that. Like I said, I want to make some more stuff. Let's do that.

[00:26:21] I want to make stuff. Thanks. That's right. That's right. Kuma, what about you, man? What do you want to, you know, tell the primos out there and kind of just kind of hype up and let them know what we're about? I don't think so far has been what? How long have we been doing this here for? About two months. Eight. This is eight years, man. Eight years now. He said we're done. We're done. Season finale, dog. No, I mean, it's true.

[00:26:49] I was out last month, but season, trying to get back in the swing of things, just helping out wherever I can. And I'm really popping up more often here, so. But excited to, been exciting to watching you guys work and see what's coming, too. So happy I get to be there. Cool. Awesome, Chuma. And Elio, what about you? I don't care. Oh, shit. No.

[00:27:14] No, I want to, like, along with growing with the primos, I hope to also grow my platform so I can bring the primos with me, you know, like, raise my ship, raise our ships, and just help promote La Raza everywhere. I also want to, like, take my role as, like, the only lady representation in the group to kind of, like, uplift more of those voices as well. We'll do that in our work and all of our future projects. And I just, I don't know.

[00:27:44] I hope, I want us to heckin' succeed. Yo. We're gonna make it. We're gonna make something happen. Like my mic says. Echale ganas. Echale ganas. And I've always trusted your mic. Echale ganas. Echale ganas. Definitely. John, what about you, man? I just, I'm happy to be here. Feel like Cousin Oliver from the Brady Bunch. Like, I'm just here now. Oh, he's always here. Cousin Oliver has always been here. He just popped up. So, but yeah, I'm just excited.

[00:28:13] Like Kevin said, I'm happy to, like, I'm excited to make stuff and, like, be a part of it and show people, like, how to make things, too. Because a lot of people ask me, like, how do you do this? How do you do that? It's easy. You just start. And that's what I hope to show people. Yeah. John, come on. It could have been easier. You could have made a tutorial. That's, everyone wants a tutorial. You just start. Step one. Start. Damn it. Little central time. Or you got lost. Little central time zone. Little central time zone. Little central time zone.

[00:28:42] Well, Primo, for me to round it out, again, just like Chikuma said earlier, like, this was us eight years ago. A drunken phone call from one Primo to another to say, hey, man, we have voices, we have opinions, but why not us? You know? Like, why not us? You know? And that stuck with me, you know? Why not us? Especially with how this show has changed and grown. From all the support we have from the comunidad and all the creators out there and fans out there that have reached out and stayed in touch that still enjoy hearing this nasally voice every week.

[00:29:12] But know that I'm excited for this year and beyond, right? Like Elia said, like, we always talk about representation, helping each other out. Not only that, but just putting a spotlight on each other and what we can do. Now, this is the year where we are going to push. We're going to push on each other, push on each other, and also just going to lift each other up as well, right? Breathe, breathe, push. Breathe, breathe, push. Push, push, and breathe. We're going to birth something amazing. Yes. We're going to get shit done because Kevin wouldn't say the S word.

[00:29:39] But somehow it's worse when they're together. That's what they said about us. But here we are, Primos. You know? But with John on board, we have the right team. Primos, stay tuned, of course, for the Patreon. We will be releasing more details here early March. I want to thank everybody again here on the episode. And just get hyped. We're all about it.
