My name is Jack and I'm here with my co-host social. And today we have a topic talk. And right now social something that's trending on on TikTok and on on the Internet right now is comes from the the Barbie movie and.00:01:10JackThe question that people are asking themselves is what kind of Barbie are you like, could you describe your Barbie and what kind of Ken are you? So could you describe your Ken? So maybe you could describe your Barbie and I'll describe my Ken.00:01:28XochitlOK, I'm like uh.00:01:32XochitlI don't know.00:01:35XochitlI think I OK. Ideally what I would like to be in fashion Barbie, you know, I have all these clothes and I.00:01:41XochitlI love clothes.00:01:42XochitlBut I don't really dress up that much anymore, like how I used to, but I used to love clothes, so I think I would be like fashion Barbie, you know. But now I'm kind of more like a.00:01:56XochitlLike.00:01:59XochitlMet Barbie or something? I don't know. Like, like a beige Barbie. Something I don't like. Kind of disillusioned with life. Ever so slightly. Yeah.00:02:11JackTrying trying to figure it out, Barbie.00:02:13XochitlTrying to figure it out, Barbie. Yeah, but you know, it's done better this year. I gotta say, the trend, the end of tail end of 27 was a great time where I started a bunch of projects, including our English corner. So with you. So I'm really excited.00:02:29XochitlAbout that and yeah, so maybe right now I would actually be like.00:02:35XochitlAn iconic Barbie that had all the jobs like veterinarian, doctor, Fashionista like you know, the one that's doing everything I'm doing a lot like the English corner, the coffee business, selling clothes.00:02:42JackYeah.00:02:51JackWhat? What kind of clothes, like, talk about the clothes you stuff. Cause I think that that's that would be like I can. I can picture your Barbies clothes because of the you know you you sell clothes on. I I see you post like dresses like you you're you're big into like thrifting right like.00:02:51XochitlYeah.00:03:09XochitlYes, yes.00:03:10JackYeah.00:03:11XochitlYeah, I saw.00:03:11JackSo lots of like prints or something. Is that what they are kind of kind of prints with like UM?00:03:16XochitlIt can be. I think they're just. It just really depends. It's more so for me right now I'm selling like American clothes. So and Mexico American clothes is is popular because it's higher quality. Traditional American garments are high quality like cotton and stuff. But like regular everyday wear.00:03:37XochitlThose is pretty low quality.00:03:39JackYeah.00:03:39XochitlIt's like worse than she and quality or whatever. Like it's very bad. So being that it's so bad, American clothes is quite popular here. So I just kind of pick whatever I think looks nice. And I think other people will like and bring that and sell it.00:03:58XochitlBeer so it could be like uh, dresses with plants or.00:04:03XochitlDresses for graduation or like the.00:04:07XochitlYou know, sweaters and different, just different articles of clothing that I think that will sell and and it's been going pretty well. I think the only issue is like the price point because it's in Mexican peso, so it's it's actually cheap for the US but for Mexicans a lot of people only make.00:04:24XochitlLike.00:04:25Xochitl300 pesos. They're like $15 a day.00:04:28XochitlAnd as you know, most clothes is like.00:04:28JackOhh.00:04:32XochitlAt least 25 bucks or 25 feet.00:04:34JackOhh yeah yeah, even if you buy off the clearance rack or something, you know at Macy's still going to be 20 or 25 bucks, you know.00:04:39XochitlYes.00:04:43XochitlRight. Yeah. So that's kind of just the only thing that I'm struggling with and I'm kind of thinking about bringing in accessories and stuff that are like a little bit cheaper or or maybe like skin care. I've been thinking when I go to Korea about buying like cheap clothes and skin care, I'm selling them here as well. The cool thing about Korea is you can like.00:05:03XochitlShe had like, boxes of stuff back, so.00:05:06발표자Yeah.00:05:07XochitlIt's kind of fun so.00:05:08JackWhat's your? What's your accessory? If you that goes with your your Barbie?00:05:13XochitlOhh, they hadn't suffered one there.00:05:15Jack20 right. Yes, of course, yes.00:05:20XochitlYou basically have 4 successor. At this point it is like I left him for a day and a half to get a couple like that, which is a really, really beautiful village here in Laka.00:05:31JackMHM.00:05:32XochitlFor my birthday trip and he came back and he's all sick and everything. I was like, what's wrong with him? So I took him to the vet today and he was like, oh, he was stressed cause you left him. And then like?00:05:41XochitlHe, like his stomach, probably hurt because he ate like some different food. We we switched him to a different diet and like all that together, made him have like a problem. Like he got Giardia, which is like, you know, travelers area type thing. Yeah. And so it was really. It was really scary.00:05:56JackYeah.00:06:01XochitlBecause you seemed really safe.00:06:02XochitlBut he's doing fine now.00:06:04XochitlBut it's like a fourth successor. I gotta take him everywhere with me, or else he.00:06:07XochitlGets sick, so.00:06:08JackYeah, I'm not sure how how well this Barbie is going to sell the the Barbie with the the duende accessory with diarrhea, but.00:06:17XochitlNo, no diarrhea, but just playing and they're just healthy. Then they're suffering. Yeah.00:06:21JackHow's he doing today? OK.00:06:23XochitlIt's just like a purse dog that you have to take everywhere.00:06:26XochitlHe's looking at.00:06:26JackRight, right. You need you need a. You need a bag, maybe something maybe. Maybe a bag. That's a kind of.00:06:27XochitlMe.00:06:27XochitlNow I'm talking about.00:06:38JackA local like locally made you know what Hawken bag that you could put when they in. That'd be a pretty cool little Barbie, yeah.00:06:45발표자Yes.00:06:46XochitlYeah, I think that would be cool. He's wearing his little sweater right now, too. He's cold, so that would be be like a blue hoodie. Yeah, well, what kind of Ken are you?00:06:51발표자Nice.00:06:55JackUM, yeah, so I'm. I'm definitely like teacher Ken. My my Ken is is has a shaved head. So that's the I'm I'm representing the bald.00:07:00XochitlOh yeah.00:07:08JackThere so bald can, but my accessory would be a a trucker hat, a trucker cap. So you can cover a KENS bald head with a with a nice trucker cap. And I'm trying to think like, what would Ken's what what's what's my uniform?00:07:28JackLet's say my uniform is pair jeans, some tennis shoes at T-shirt and then maybe like because I'm a teacher, I'll throw like a like a a a suit jacket over the top of that. So.00:07:45XochitlHmm.00:07:45JackThis is definitely of the the strangest can ever. But yeah, I think that would be my that would be my, my, my accessory and my outfit. And maybe maybe my school bag. You know, that would be my, you know, putting students, papers and and things like that.00:08:05JackInside that would be my that would be my other accessory. So the trucker hat and and a a a school bag, yeah.00:08:15JackYeah. I don't know. Yeah. Teacher. Teacher care.00:08:18발표자Oh.00:08:19JackYeah.00:08:20XochitlI often see.00:08:20발표자Yeah.00:08:25XochitlWhat was I gonna say? I often see.00:08:30XochitlGen. Z represented is wearing like beanies as well, which you also do.00:08:34JackOhh, that's right. I'm. Yeah, that's when I try to be cool. But it's it's it's like dressing one generation below my my actual station in life.00:08:46JackSo.00:08:46XochitlI don't think so, because every time I see Gen. X like represented in skits, they're always wearing like a they they dress exactly like you. It's so crazy when I see this guy like go skits because he's not Gen. XI. Think he's like a millennial. Maybe he's. No, I think he must be like a millennial and he he pulls, like skits like showing like.00:09:06XochitlRumors that were genex that were ex millennial and Gen. Z.00:09:09XochitlEric, you know, and I definitely relate hard to like a mix between the dense and millennial because you know I'm a customer, but when he does the Gen. X, it looks it's like looks just like you like. It looks so much like I gotta send you because I think you would get a kick out of it. It's so similar to you. And then like the the, the Gen. Z.00:09:30XochitlLike like for example they have like the meeting and the tenses still sleeping.00:09:34JackOh, yeah, yeah, yeah.00:09:34XochitlAnd that is me. That is kind of like me.00:09:38JackI think I'm. I'm a customer as well. Like I'm kind of right between millennial and and Gen. X because I'm like, you know, I'm like a really young Gen. X or a really old Gen. Z or sorry, really old millennial. Yeah.00:09:45XochitlYeah.00:09:50XochitlMillennial, you mean? Yeah.00:09:53XochitlYes.00:09:54JackNo.00:09:55JackI can I can kind of. I can. I can go. I can go either way, depending on my mood for the uh for the day, I guess, yeah.00:09:55XochitlYes.00:10:03XochitlYeah, I'm gonna send you one of those gifts so you can take a look at it.

There is nothing better than a home-cooked meal. As the pan simmers, the tantalizing aromas fill the air, and everyone's taste buds begin to salivate in excitement. For Hector Saldivar, the founder of Tia Lupita, sharing his family's hot sauce is akin to welcoming you into his kitchen for a home-cooked meal. In Latin American culture, and others, family recipes are passed down from generation to generation. Hector, with his mother's blessing, has taken her hot sauce and bottled it for everyone to enjoy. Some recipes are just too good not to share with the world. Tia Lupita sells cactus chips, grain-free tortillas, and the best hot sauce on the market. Listen in as we discuss: How Hector convinced his mom to let him commercialize their secret family hot sauce recipe Why the large Hispanic brands are out of touch with today's consumer And Border Patrol agents questioning the increasingly large amounts of home-cooked hot sauce being brought over the Mexico/American border And thank you to Cat Footwear for sponsoring this episode. They are a premier shoe company that empowers builders and doers, to reframe the world to create something more meaningful.

THE  RIVER AND THE WALL follows five friends on an immersive adventure through the unknown wilds of the Texas borderlands as they travel from El Paso to the Gulf of Mexico on horses, mountain bikes, and canoes. Conservation filmmaker Ben Masters realizes the urgency of documenting the last remaining wilderness in Texas as the threat of new border wall construction looms ahead. Masters recruits NatGeo Explorer Filipe DeAndrade, ornithologist Heather Mackey, river guide Austin Alvarado, and conservationist Jay Kleberg to join him on the two-and-a-half-month journey down 1,200 miles of the U.S.-Mexico border. They set out to document the borderlands and explore the potential impacts of a border wall on the natural environment, but as the wilderness gives way to the more populated and heavily trafficked Lower Rio Grande Valley, they come face-to-face with the human side of the immigration debate and enter uncharted emotional waters. Ben Masters is best known for his UNBRANDED, a feature documentary on Netflix, in which he and three friends adopted 16 wild mustangs, trained them, and rode 3,000 miles from Mexico to Canada to inspire wild horse adoptions. Director Ben Masters join us to talk about the spectacular natural beauty of the Rio Grande Valley, the people who live along the Mexico - American border and the on-the-ground reality of a border wall.

In Americans in the Treasure House: Travel to Porfirian Mexico and the Cultural Politics of Empire (University of Texas Press, 2014), Jason Ruiz explores the role of a distinct group of actors in the relationship between the United States and Mexico: American travelers, travel writers and photographers who visited and worked in Mexico during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. With the junction of rail lines between the United States and Mexico in the 1880s, travel to Mexico became accessible to many in the populous U.S .East and Midwest. Through their photography and written accounts, These new travelers produced a popular representation of Mexico to the U.S. public which influenced both contemporary U.S. policy and modern U.S. attitudes towards Mexico. Drawing on the vast body of documentation and representation left by American travelers to Mexico, Ruiz argues that these travelers helped shape a form of U.S. cultural and economic imperialism distinct to Mexico. Travelers replicated many of the common tropes of imperialist discourse, viewing Mexicans, and especially indigenous Mexicans, as infantile, sensual, and backwards. At the same time, however, travelers also saw in the regime of Porfirio Díaz the possibility that Mexico could become a productive, modern, “sister republic” to the U.S. Ruiz notes that to this end, American travelers promoted a range of social and economic transformations in Mexico: the uplifting of the mestizo class, U.S. economic interventionism and investment, and finally – as the Porfiriato collapsed in the Mexican Revolution – direct U.S. military intervention. And while the specific economic vision of American travelers was curtailed by the Revolution, Ruiz argues that their depictions of Mexico continue to influence Americans today through the modern tourist industry.
