hi I’m Lana Condor and this is my last [Applause] [Music] meal every person has exactly two things in common we all got to eat and we’re all going to die you might recognize today’s guests from moonshot X-Men apocalypse into all the boys I’ve Loved Before her new movie Valiant one is out this January and ah shoot I forgot the rest of the intro but let me get your number just in case I remember it later Lana Condor welcome to the show thank you for having me you are an incredible actor but you’re an even better pickup artist tell me how you landed that hunk over there with one line thank you so much um it’s just my natural RZ that I was born with but I tell everyone I said hi uh well he said uh hi I’m Anthony I thought I’d make a friend that’s his natural RZ I told him a joke but I told him that I forgot the punchline so can I have your number cuz I will inevitably remember it later on this evening or whatever and that’s how I got his phone number did you hear my intro oh my God yes wow sometimes it’s a sorry I have a problem where I enunciate everything in the same monotone that I think it’s like a dog whistle where it just gets like tuned out sometimes no I was focused but I was also like what projects is he going to list of mine uh have you thought about your last meal before it seems like you had based on what you picked not the spoiler for anyone I started thinking about my last meal because I saw this meme that said on your gravestone how depressing would it be if it just said ate a lot of kale and then I started like spiraling and thinking to myself like oh my God like if I were God forbid struck down in this very moment like like I I hope that there’s something good in my stomach and I hope that I’m not really hungry you know cuz how pissed would you be if you’re like in heaven or hoping that you get to the good place and you’re like oh my God you died starving that’s like super embarrassing yeah I think all I think they like that’s lowfat dressing on that KLC wow you lived an unfulfilled life yes so that one meme changed the course of my life and now I’m here with you incredible I think it was all written this is all predestined yes uh are you someone that thinks about death a lot I have that like youthful like I’m never going to die I’m like nothing bad will ever happen to me and then I don’t know what h i well I do know what happened but we’ll get into that but I I this year now I think about death so much but you know what don’t worry because I recently started hypnotherapy it’s not debilitating wa can you hypnotherapy me like does the practice translate to somebody else what if I’m like amazing at like hypnotizing you right now you might if at any point during the meal while we’re slurping down noodles you want to hypnotize me I give you full consent this is official Hypno Jake Lana for the first course yes your final meal on this Earth we have a perfect New York slice this is homemade this is uh long fermented dough about 3 days in the fridge we tried to do our best to recreate we imported the water did from new no we didn’t I lied to you and do that again and then we have the bacon egg and cheese on and everything bagel This Is The Love Letter to New York oh my this is my meal every single day that I’m in New York like I can’t go a day without getting a bacon EG and cheese in the morning and a slice of pizza at some part of the day this is I mean this is what you go to New York for like this is the only reason to visit as far as I’m concerned okay no the that’s pretty perfect it’s pretty perfect I think we crushed it some people like it a little bit floppy some of it like straight I think there has to be like I think if you fold it down it has to stay like this but then if you go up it should be able to hold this like a a diver it’s like you know they’re infinitely pliable but also Li we’re not in New York you didn’t even get New York water you said no I no we did get an old Italian man to spit in the water though that we used so I think we nailed it oh yeah I can taste the spit so nice little bit okay so I asked you about the this because I eat my pizza I don’t know if this is like is this well I’m going to ask you is this like sacrileges I I like ter it and I don’t know how why I’ve been doing this for so long but I this is how I eat my pizza every time as I like tear it into do you have certain amounts of pieces that you’re shooting for like what’s your idea no I think what it is is I I’m I’m wanting it’s like a Choose Your Own Adventure situation like this this is going to be completely different than this you’re creating new foods as you thank you so much I’m so smart but no I love to tear it like this and in my brain I think to myself this is now three pieces you trippled your experience yeah and the value so I’m not only saving money but I’m creating just like a full sensory experience I love the way your brain works that’s incredible I know at some point you had a secret food Instagram is that secret food Instagram still active and how do I get the invite to follow I mean I don’t think it I I have no idea I haven’t posted on it in so long but it was the do little do spoon and I was so intense if I had my phone I would show you it has so much food on it but now I just post it to my feed um open up the bagel let’s get to the bagel I love that it’s in the bag okay this I think it’s important it’s got a steam comes to me if I’ve had like a night out in New York and I’m un seriously unwell in the morning uh yes seeing this changes everything you’re like I no longer want to die There’s Hope to day I can still accomplish what I need to do do you know what I mean I do but for me since I’ve spent almost all my life in California it’s the breakfast burrito oh so look at that that is wait is there going to be a cheese Pole or do you think we waited no well we used American well no you can only use American what you can’t chees po American yeah well you can get hold on you got to kind of like defate you got to like defat it put it back together come on do you salt pepper ketchup or no salt pepper ketchup I say this all as somebody who has explored New York outside of the Physical Realm in media that sounds like I went uh into the Afterlife you’re just hovering above New York like that I mean I watched Tik Tok but I didn’t want to say I watched TI Tok been to New York I’ve been to New York but I’ve never lived there right I’ve never experienced it but the way I understand it is you go to Bodega and you say like bacon egg and cheese on a bag old salt pepper ketchup let’s do one bite without one bite with the world is oyster it really is you can do anything if you clog your arteries with this in the morning we should rob a bank hear me out do you want to I feel like I have all the energy in the world right now for what I start small like 150 bucks you know what I mean you’re risking your freedom for 150 bucks no that way no one comes after you I feel like they wouldn’t Chase it’s like they would be like what are you doing it’s like shoplifting from Ross at they would be like clearly he needs this more than we do got it I think we ketchup a bite I want to see what you do and then I’ll go off with that are you a ketchup person I love ketchup yeah yeah you know that scene in uh Twilight where Bella is it’s in the first one and she’s eating a meal like with her dad but she’s like thinking about Edward and she’s like this and she’s in the diner and she’s like for literally 2 minutes just like and like nothing’s coming out that’s how I feel right now yes I’ve seen the Twilight you’ve never you’ve hovered above New York you’ve never seen Twilight what who are you tremendously uncultured individual um but I thought the one with the bigger muscles was sexier so I’m Team Jacob Jacob yeah who was a werewolf so you just objectified him and said 100% he’s the one got it love the build keep crushing it in the gym Taylor I think you’re doing great all right I just put like a little bit oh my w it’s such a shame that you only found out about this when it’s too late I’m dying dying I’m passing right after this you got a new movie coming out called Valiant one you said in an interview 5 years ago that your ideal dream role would be quote Andrew Garfield in hacksaw Ridge but a girl yeah I did and now you’ve completely manifested that this is about as close to that as you get are you a witch do you have the power of sight and divination so I’m not a witch but I actually do think that I have manifested a lot of things in my life I think of there I might have some sort of power but I’m not a witch maybe I am you know what I get we’ll get the tub throw you and see if you it’s a whole process we have here um but why were you attracted to roles like in hacksaw Ridge I did the T all the boys franchise for years like for I think we we shot three of them but I think over the course of like four or 5 years and I’m someone that kind of likes to live on extremes and so I think that like once that season of my life was over I instantly was like okay what can I do that’s like so left feel that might honestly be so unbelievably random when when I tell people like oh yeah I have a war film coming out they’re like you don’t do War films but I for from like my heart I wanted to do something that could kind of really be so different and also showcase like different strengths that I have I am someone that has had to work for a long time about finding the tools of leaving work at work M and not bringing it home with me cuz I’m sensitive and I and my imagination is really strong so I can kind of convince myself of anything hence hypnotherapy but um doing this war film was actually psychologically and physically intense on me in a way that I really wasn’t actually expecting it to be that intense and I think part of it was like we everything we wore was all real and tactical like we didn’t we didn’t put like we didn’t stuff our you know our Rock sacks with styrofoam like we had 607 lb of gear in our backpacks at all times because the director really wanted it to feel really real for us you know all of our explosions and all of our gun stuff like was it very I mean it was safe but it was very real and I think I got to a point where like I noticed I was like okay I Lana remember this as a movie because like I would be like you know grocery shopping and I’d hear like a car kick and be like what the like I would really freak me out oh man and I would kind of think that I was like in a war zone so I realized that was a big Learning lesson for me on that movie to be like okay you need to have tools that you can separate cuz it’s not always going to be like love letters and Ro romcoms like sometimes it’s going to be a little heavier material and you have to be able to like remind yourself it’s not real it’s not real it’s not real but when you’re constantly being shot at it it kind of feels real yeah so 100% also your your brother is a lieutenant in the US Navy right yes he’s an officer yes an officer yeah did did you like consult him at all were you like hey what’s your experience been I imagine he’s in like an active war zone but was he an inspiration at all he doesn’t really like any of my work and so that was another reason brother stuff that was another reason why I wanted to do a war film cuz I’m like if I can get him to watch one thing that I’m in it’s probably going to be this um but I didn’t really consult too much with him but it came from a place of wanting to do a really good job to make him proud a common theme about like the reason I enjoy watching stuff like Saving Private Ryan is for like the inspiration it’s people finding this strength that they didn’t know they had and I know a mantra for you is you’re stronger than you know yeah tell me how much you’ve leaned on that Mantra in your life I write in my like journal every day you’re stronger than you know and in my calendar all over little notes I’m like I just write it all the time I would get it tattooed on my body but I recently got my first tattoo and apparently the antidote is within me because tattoos do not work on me what yes wait are you sure you didn’t just get scammed and it was I’m positive I didn’t get scammed at my farewell brunch for my wedding I brought in a tattoo artist and she tattooed our whole family so she tattooed God like 50 people what was the tattoo I got the my wedding date tattooed on my body but everyone else that got tattoos their tattoos are perfect but mine I’m telling you it doesn’t exist it doesn’t exist I don’t know if it’s there’s something amazing about my skin or maybe I am a witch I was going to ask you what X-Men superpower you would want in life but now I know you have one it’s just slightly more absorbent skin dream Pig loner course number two we have the A5 wagu s now this is a wagu ribey uh sliced thin we’ve dredged it in panko after sting it and then fried it at about 375° in unroasted sesame oil and then we have the Japanese milk bread made in house fermented with the Tang Zong and all that and then the KATU sauce on the side we have the salmon avocado cut roll classic Sushi Machi roll slightly seasoned sushi rice and then your Ginger Wasabi for dipping and then we have haal all homemade this is with the uh Crystal tapioca starch and pure wheat starch I’m so excited this is like just comfort food you know H dim suom on like a Sunday with all your friends is the best or dimsum alone on a Sunday even you summed alone like no offense but I prefer to like Dy solo I can leave that’s cool I’ll just can I get mine to go we just get the check that’d be super huge for me right now I love dining solo I love oh do yeah I’m going to say it okay so one time well first let’s take a bite oh my God wait oh my God what cool it down in the mouth that was so metal thank you you just dra chili oil so I dine solo a lot cuz I love it I love to just focus on the food I don’t know if you ever feel this way but like if there’s a special restaurant you’ve been dying to try like don’t go with a big group of people cuz you’re neverly going to talk so much and then you might miss the food like I just want to go alone or with one other person maybe but what I do alone is I bring a notepad I order a lot of food and then I bring a notepad and I take a lot of pictures while I eat to assume the position position of maybe she’s a food journalist no you don’t that’s stolen Val I used to have to book under an alias it was Thor build yakobson to review yeah but as a food journalist I worked for magazines I would review restaurants like under I assumed your identity that is so messed up yeah does it work did they start sending you every time oh my God I get like extra little like things to take home like like free dessert like I’ll get like I feel genuinely like they like put more care into like the dish of course they do because you’re psychologically torturing them yes I’m lying the chefs back there throwing dishes at the cooks well it’s like here learn so much from like the movie Ratatouille he sits alone and he’s like serve me perspective and so that’s what I try to do the movie was really problematic in the food writer Community we like now people are going to start faking that they’re journalists and now I know they were and here I am my dad’s a journalist I don’t know if that means I can be grandfathered in but yeah that’s what I do and I I I I’m going to keep doing it until I guess someone D don’t let me tell you don’t let me tell you not to but I love it it’s fun for me I want to ask about your dad because you were adopted from Vietnam you live there for a couple months and you said that your dad and mom would like take you to try and explore your heritage through food do you remember the first time you ate Asian food with your parents I couldn’t remember the first time but we had um a Vietnamese nanny who would make Rd and I food a lot so being adopted from Vietnam I think and being raised in America I think my parents did their very best to try and expose me to you know my culture but also they’re two quite you know their names are Bob and Mary like it doesn’t get whiter than that um but so they did their very best to like expose me to all sorts of like Vietnamese Cuisines but it’s kind of I’ve gotten older too is where I’ve like really really kind of focused on like learning about cultures through Cuisines and especially mine because I would really love to be closer to my Vietnamese Heritage um and I think that’s probably going to be like a constant Journey for me but um I mean yeah I I loved it let’s dig into the wagu sand this is is dying in the window and I know you are an esteemed food critic so we need to make sure it’s dying in the window as a food critic you don’t know that please I mean like when you’ve put uh like food in the window for service if a server doesn’t take it immediately it’s dying in the window what if that’s on your grav Stone I died in the window mm that was a very common way to execute political opponents in like the 1600s they called it defenestration you’re really smart no you said you’ve said a lot of words this couple I don’t know how long we’ve been here I don’t know it’s just Latin for throw out a window this is so this is incredible also it’s so Japanese yet so americ did you know that this is the first year I’ve eaten red meat I did not know that and now I’m sitting here eating A5 wagu with you you really do love to live in extremes I was a pescatarian for all my life up until a couple years ago um mainly because when I was younger my parents brought me to like one of those like Safari like you know like Safari things where like not a real Safari like a safari park where Safari Park yeah in the minivan and like an ostrich an American Safari yeah yeah and my mom thought she did it to terrorize me and she would open all the windows and then all the animals are in there and I’m just freaking out and then after uh after the Safari ended you go to like the dining hall and you have this big buffet and I had just already met so many animals like honestly against my will but like I have been exposed to so many animals and then I go to the buffet and they’re kind of they’re not like serving giraffe but like you’re you’re like five so you see meat and you think well I was just with them just now in the car I can’t eat that because we’re too close you said that you think adoption is a really beautiful thing but people tend to tiptoe around it when they talk why do you think that is a lot of people have their own experiences and so typically when I talk to people who like maybe aren’t adopted themselves they they it’s it’s them trying to be sensitive to like me but I I like to I could talk about it forever because I think it’s a really beautiful thing and I think that there’s so many couples that can’t have kids and and I think adoption is an amazing option and I think that I’ve also been someone that has fought the good fight of like nurture versus nature and obviously I’m a nurture gal so I just and love my parents more than anything I mean they’re all I know like there’s my biological parents I have no I could be I could walk down the street and they could walk by me and I would have no idea um so my mom and my dad are like that’s those are my parents that’s it so um I just want like I like to talk about it in a positive way in case it is brain food for someone who might be considering adopting have you read a Chicago Tribune article from December 21st 1997 called journey of the heart yes yes my dad he’s a journalist he wrote that for the Chicago Tribune they asked him to do um piece on um our adoption story for Christmas and I read that actually like I think I read it around like 15 I mean I never had a question am I adopted because like I’m like Asian and my parents are white so mess up if you only found out with a newspaper article 15 years ago bed I think like the context clue should help um but and but um yeah I did read that article and it was really beautiful because to me is is so special and actually because of that got a piece I think there was like 20 families got babies after it or something like that which is amazing so yeah if I can read an excerpt from it not to embarrass you but I started tearing up when I read it I thought it was very sweet you talk about your dad picking you and he says I hear a baby fussing to my right not crying but simply making a little noise I walk over to pick up the baby the fussing stops instantly I’m looking at my future daughter she is gorgeous and I read that and I was like it seemed like predestined in a way it’s really beautiful and I know your mom had that similar situation with Ry mhm they’ been on a journey looking for their children for a long time and this was kind of this orphanage was like a last minute hail and Mary for them the agency that they were the adoption agency that they were working for they working with they it ended up I think it ended up being a scam and so they lost like all of the families that they traveled with they lost all of their money they lost everything so a lot of a lot of people had to go back and recoup and figure out what’s next and my parents were just like screw it like let’s just try this one last time on our own I’m actually I love that he said fussing because I’m not a big crier but I am a big [Music] like so I imagine that’s kind of what I was doing but he always said like my both of my parents always said that you know they had met so many babies and they’d fallen in love with so many cuz how like you meet all these babies how do you you just want to take them all home but I think they were really looking waiting for like a moment like some some moment that felt undeniable and I thank God I was like I don’t know I was probably pooping but like thank God I was doing whatever I was doing because I my life would have been so so different had I not fussed about and I am so grateful for them and I try really hard to live my life to honor them and and to make you know their choice worth it yeah so that’s beautiful bubble eat your sushi it’s getting warm the sandwich is getting cold the sushi is getting warm I didn’t know that sushi rice had to to be body temp there’s the thing and it’s also the reason why um Jiro Ono he he got in a little bit of trouble cuz he said that he wouldn’t hire a female sushi chef because women have higher body temperatures than men and it would ruin the race it’s not scientifically true it’s but it’s not true right or do we run hotter no we need more sleep and I tell that to my husband every single day women live longer than men do you think it’s because they get more sleep one time and by one time I mean like last week I slept for 15 hours what it was a sad day oh okay yeah yeah one of the sad days and I call it the sads the psychiatrist called it clinical depression I was like well I’m just sad all the time I know I know my therapist try is trying to tell me I’m depressed but I just say the sadness has made a home within me but it’s that’s so poetic you sound like a 17th century poet that’s beautiful but the home is still a place of love Yeah doesn’t mean it’s a bad home I I sleep like 5 hours a night at most it’s terrible why is it the night terrors just keeps you awake the fact that you do a show about death mostly the DMS that I get not the guest interactions you know you don’t have to read them I know you have free will mhm do you think people do have free will or we just sort of like all like collection of social pressures and nature nurture and we’re all just floating through life until we die I recently read this book I’m going to totally butcher it uh there’s this airplane flight commercial flight and then this psychic stands up and like H is like in a trance and has is like having an episode and stands up and walks down the aisle and tells every passenger age and how they will die and so the book the novel is kind of all about how people would react if they knew when and how they would die and it made me really think about like is there such thing as fate is is your life predestined I have decided that okay so my mom recently passed away and she had a really bad accident and she became uh fully paralyzed overnight and she suffered for um a year and then her body just gave out on her and I I refus to believe that that the way that she died that was her fate that that was pre-written for her if I believe that I could so instantly have zero faith in anything and I personally don’t want to live my life without faith without hope and optimism I think it’s really easy to be drawn into the darker parts but I have I personally want to live my life this way when I read the book and I was kind of faced with that question like can fate fate can’t be fought I was like man I just don’t want to believe that like she was always meant to go that way yeah like we don’t want to live in a place where we are just along for the ride and then we die there’s I can I can take this and I can dip it in the KATU even though it’s not meant to go in there yeah I mean my husband he um will like just buy whole rotisserie chickens and just eat them like in the car or like that’s called boy dinner boy dinner and he I guess he’s he was with a friend one night and his friend was like what do you want to eat and he’s like oh let’s just get two whole rotisserie chickens and his friend was like I didn’t know you could do that I didn’t know that that was allowed that you could just put that sucker there and rip it apart and eat it but it’s like yes like you things don’t have to be structured and I think in food like I personally think that there are no rules I think they’re just kind of guidelines loner course number three of your final meal we have spaghetti alamana this is that Guan chal that’s been rendered and then you sauté the tomatoes in it little bit of calabrian chili toss a spaghetti in there put the Guan chal back on top with a little bit of peino then we have the shrimp chow M get that W on it really fry that soy sauce into the noodles feel that heat and then if You’ open your bowl we have the chum so this is the Korean Seafood noodle soup we have muscles we have shrimp we got squid we have clam and anchovy in the broth and then a little bit of that bulgogi shaved beef this rules we did it this is my dream oh wow where would you start are you not like uh spoiled for Choice here maybe we maybe we start and one of these because this will stay warm smart yeah can I can I dish you up yeah sure I’m so curious to see how much of a mess you make I know wait oh my God it’s so much hotter than I thought it would be hold on I think if you use the fork to support the Chopsticks this is wild support the Chopsticks what’s your favorite cheese on like a red sauce I always go peino over parm agreed I don’t know it just bites a little bit better it’s like funky it’s like there’s more flavor I guess I know I think it’s it’s like higher salt higher acid thinkes has a certain to it but I’m there for that kick in the face yeah I if I’m eating like I rarely want something to be subtle I want to be kicked in the face you once said that uh you eat noodles every single day for dinner seriously guys I can’t go a day without noodles if you cut me open all you would find is noodles is noodles that still holds true every single day I feel so deeply uncomfortable if I don’t have like a little noodle in me like I really oo that could be weird most people say take that as you will um but I no seriously it’s my favorite favorite food like I travel with like little cup of noodles because I get anxiety without noodles if you cut me open you would see last night’s noodles why do you think that you should talk to yourself like you would talk to your best friend you did your research um I would never say half the things that I tell myself I would never say that to my best friend I would never say that to anyone that I love like what makes me the the outlet for such self-hate like why do why would I say that to myself and I think it’s a good reminder cuz when I’m feeling down or I’m in my head about something or maybe yeah I’m not feeling myself you want to be your best friend you want to speak to yourself tenderly so that you know that you’re safe in your own body it is funny that we do reserve the most cruelty for ourselves I know but then do you ever get caught up in the spiral of doing the negative selft talk and then negative selft talking yourself because you’ve been negative selft talking why can’t you love yourself yeah how do you drag yourself out of those spirals is it noodles honestly yes like actually this is very serious I think it’s spicy noodles help me a lot I remember um when my mom passed away I ate a shout out you better give me a sponsorship I ate um um bulldock carbonara spicy hot like Korean Ramen I think like extreme spice can kind of like like get you out of your head and back into your body I know that’s such an extreme example with my mom but like it’s also my truth like when I am down and I I I do get really sad I really gravitate towards like a spicy noodle soup or something like just eat a Sano pepper like do something something to like I don’t know just get you like sweating to remind yourself you’re like you’re still functioning I think every dish should have the option to be covered This way everything stays warm 100% God this is the first time we’ve had uh we’ve had Lids on the show by the way I just found out that my best friend can’t eat hot food not spicy food with heat something about his teeth I guess oh I get that I have sensy teeth too you do but you do you just like ignore it cuz you’re kind of like a masochist 100% not kind that’s yeah it’s just I I wake up and I immediately drink pre-workout and I go to a gym till my hands bleed and then I eat spicy noodles and I listen to metal and I do it all over again you do 200 milligrams of pre-workout 200 so cute that’s so cute is it is it more that’s so cute it’s three but that’s okay 300 milligram not advisable medically don’t do what I do or what I say or don’t look at me even don’t look at him don’t look at why are you here uh go watch the BuzzFeed puppy interview uh I got my one my first dog my daughter from BuzzFeed you can just take one of those dogs I did like we offer you food to go you just take a dog they’re like so I went in like I’m I don’t know if it’s allowed but I’m I’m going to take one like if I feel drawn does BuzzFeed know that you took a dog from the puppy yes well there’s a pro so it’s actually from they bring dogs in from like different rescues and that’s kind of what they’re promoting but well I don’t want to speak for BuzzFeed I don’t know I don’t know what you’re doing but are you sure this was a buzzfeed shoot and it wasn’t just a guy with an iPhone and a bunch no but I they they did like background checks and everything like they made sure that I was like cool I hope o you want to talk you want to be morbid 100% there’s got to be a way we can figure out how to make dogs live outlive us well they can already clone your dog right but then do they have the same personality I don’t think um I know twins that are eerily similar though you know what I mean you know twins that are like they’re the creepy twins yeah but I feel like we’re getting into like sensitive territory is anyone smarter than us in science probably most a twin and a clone is very different a I feel like they’re closer than you think yes maybe I feel like you clone a dog that’s the same dog dogs aren’t as complex you know what I mean oh I’m sorry are you a yeah I am I really am we’re done Lana for the final course of your final meal we have the Maran berry pie this is made from scrp Butter Crust a little bit of vodka in there to get some extra crispiness and then we have reduced the Maran berries added just a little bit of pectin baked it very simple lattice crust and it was only because wiid be pies would not mail all the way out to LA we tried oh my gosh you up yes please look at that wow marry and Berry isn’t like super common it’s a very specific Northwest thing and you I think they’re actually maybe all grown in Oregon but it’s a it’s a variant of a Blackberry but very Pacific Northwest and you grew up on Whidby Island outside of Seattle you said you’d bring Whidby pies to every special occasion oh yeah I wanted to have um like pie would be pies instead of a wedding cake I want to talk about your childhood on WBY Island because you said that you were able to grow up slower there because there was just a slower pace of life it was a lot of playing in the woods uh was that like intentional from your parents to give you a slower pace of life growing up when I was younger it was kind of just when like internet online was just kind of becoming a thing but not really but then like we were living in Chicago at the time and my dad works in like he’s a journalist so he’s a part of the media and all these things and I think he just had like this come to Jesus moment of like wa we’ve worked so hard to like have children let’s see if we can have them grow up and like slower and realize that 24 hours in a day like that’s actually quite a lot of time if you’re present in it so I think that a lot of that came from the way that I was raised by my mom and my dad and particularly would be because we had no like access to anything so yeah I love I loved growing up there and I hope that I hope that someday I can go back there and live there you had a really beautiful tribute to your mother on Instagram when she passed where you said that she taught you to love others in the world in such a way that made you forget that hate existed uh is that ultimately you think the Legacy that your mom left on your life is that sort of um love that can’t be contained yeah I think when we were at her Memorial someone got up and did a speech like towards the end of her celebration of life man they said if I had like a quarter for how many times Mary was described as kind I would be a billionaire and I think that that is really who she was and I think that it’s who she still is and I think that she was the type of person that when we would go out for meals like she would almost to the point where it would just really annoy me but she was like you know she’s the type of person that like asks the waiters and the waitresses like about their life story and like she genuinely cared and genuinely had interest and like she was the definition to me as someone who really like killed him with kindness and was able to find something good in everyone that she met be it someone like a lifelong partner like my dad her her husband or some random person on the street that you’re never going to see again like she really really really tried her very best and put it into practice just like being the essence of kindness I do remember her like that and it’s nice to know that like at the memorial so many of her friends and her family felt the same way way so yeah are you ready to get in the lightning round yes let’s do it uh who’s the one person Dead or Alive you’d want to share your actual last meal with Anthony my husband would
