This is an I Heart Podcast. Guaranteed Human. I sent it to you. Why does this guy I love this guy? He makes me so happy. Oh no, long. You go ahead and go get something at the store. And I have to stop and let it be. Orange. So this guy, remember. I'll let me pause it quickly. This guy is on TikTok. His name is Jose. And Jose is showing us his lunch. And he makes me very happy. Jose's wife loves him a lot. And I guess just sticks everything in his lunch box. And he has been lunched and you do. And I watched this this morning. I don't know if he's been doing it. Kiki, has he been doing this? Oh my goodness. Yes. I found him like what week or so ago. And he was stuck in my head all weekend. Like he's so cute. He's so happy. And he just likes his lunch. Yeah, no, he makes me happy too. I heard this a lot. Four o'clock this morning. I'm like, I love him. Yeah. I love you. I'm not remembering how he eats. He's the one up one day for something. Yeah.
For something. Yeah, that's the most. The most. Yes, the most. Oh my goodness. Whoa. It's cool. It's cool. It's a piece. Ah! It's a piece. The pumpkin piece. It was so good. It's so good. It's like my peeps. Oh. Like those Easter peeps. Peeps. Not peeps. Yeah, another peeps. They will pump in flavor anything. Yeah, I guess so. Yeah. And I put me long and you wipe, not put you no long. I know much. And I'll suck it. Suck it. I know. Another jarrito go misabai with my wife. Three other day at dollar store. Yeah, anyway, I love this guy. And we went through everything in his lunch box, which not very nutritional. I was going to say, is there like some protein in there? She's given him peeps. I don't think we got to the protein part yet, but. Okay. I just know it. Oh, good. Okay. Probably, but his wife make him lunch. Your wife make you no lunch.
And I think that's some, there's a story there. There's a moral. There's some motto. There's something, there's something larger there. Yes, appreciate your wife. Right. Right. Right. Your wife make you no lunch. My whatever it was again. That's what it is. Is I want you to remember that today? Hopefully you're nice to your husband, you're nice to your wife. Boy, a friend girlfriend because you want them to make you lunch. Not make you no lunch. That's right. You know, lunch. Me, my co-zay. The other thing I've noticed is there are a number of guys, construction workers on TikTok, that share their lunches. Many of them are Hispanic and the lunches are elaborate. Now, they're working really hard and so they need like snacks and protein and like good food to eat. And so I understand that. But I mean, you know, when I think about a lunch, it's a sandwich, maybe a drink, some chips. I mean, these are gigantic coolers full of like carne asada. There's like a tap and the ockie table in there. You know, it's like full cake pie, flan. Like it's a gigantic thing they take to work every day.
Yes. It's a real undertaking. I mean, it's like full on catering every day to go to work. I love it. And you know what? The craziest part is too is that most of the time they'll wake up at three of the wife, the wife or the girlfriend, wake up at three, four in the morning to cook that lunch. Oh, yeah. You've seen those TikToks as well. Three two, I thought you know. Yeah, I'm like, wow, man, I need a wife. You know, I need a wife. I'm doing this wrong. I'm doing this wrong. Love a wife. Like every day I wake up, my wife making me no lunch. It's not happening. The other day, there's a guy on TikTok. It's a dude. I think he's a stay-at-home dad. I'm not 100% sure. But he gets up at three o'clock in the morning to make his wife who's a nurse, fresh, breakfast, and lunch every day for her whatever, 12 hour shifts. And he does it on TikTok. And I think there's another one where like a kid does it. There are a few of these that I've seen. Like where maybe the sun gets up and does it for his mom. It's the sweetest thing when these people get up and they every morning though. And it's like fresh, everything's, they make it all. And then of course there's the other side of it.
I don't know if you've seen these where people will be like, I had my husband pack my lunch today. And it's just like, there's like a bottle of vodka. And then you know like some ketchup. And then that's kind of it. And then he does big-tem so walk you to the car like he did when you first started. Girl, no. That's why I got chased by that raccoon. That man just sleep in his slumber. How long did that last? I'm sure he liked the first month of me being on the show. That's a long time. That's it. It went from walking to the car to he would look out the bedroom window. Just make sure. Sometimes it's just standing the driveway with the lugs. But yeah, now it's just every man for themselves. Yeah, so if you're new, when you first started coming on our show, we're part of the show a few years ago, he would wake up with you every day. Yes, he still wakes up with me every day because you know, I like to make a lot of noise when I wake up. Yeah. Yeah. He's not waking up with you. He's not waking him up. Yeah, no, that's a whole different thing. This isn't him doing it out of the goodness of his heart.
Because you're in here banging on pots and pans on your way out. Yes, and I'm watching Jose on TikTok every morning. You know, so it's that. But yeah, do you make Mike's lunch lunch Jason? No, he doesn't eat lunch. Okay. You start until you get home. Yeah, so he gets one meal a day. But I do make sure that he is like, what is he adopted? Yeah, he gets bread and water and that's it. No, I'll make sure there's little snackies at the shop. So he's got like a box of chips and some granola bars that are throwing in there. Oh, there's the way. Yeah, I felt like you would be the most wifely out of all of us. I don't know. I'm only into you make a lunch. I do. So like, have he's a part time job. So I have to make him his lunch. This lunch situation, it is nothing like Jose. Okay, like I make him the bare minimum because I'm also like not a good cook. I blame that on me. Like, I'm not going to make the card in the side. I'm not a good cook. I blame that on me. I do. Growing up, I had the chance to learn. My mom was like, let's learn. I'm a teacher. Do you think I was there learning? No, I was running off wherever I was running off to. You were selling her gold. Literally selling her golds, like selling cigarettes. I was doing a lot of stuff.
I was doing a lot of stuff. You're not a entrepreneur. I was a mom. Look at you now. I'm still free, man. Yeah. Paulina was a small business woman from an early age. I knew who I was. A young age. Yes, daddy. But I just very sweet. I like Jose. He made me smile today. I like these videos. Someone texted him up at $4.45 with my boyfriend that packed his lunch. And he has a lunch box that heats up on its own. Lots of these blue collar workers don't have access to microwaves. So sweet. Yeah. But these lunches are super elaborate. And again, I get it. They're working long days. It's hard work. But it'll be just full on spread. And every detail has been considered. You know, like the limes and the seasoning and the mists and the bad and all the drinks and then everything. Yes. And I wake up every day and open my refrigerator like somehow some fairy came and put something in there. Even though the only person who possibly could have done it is me. And there's nothing in there ever. But every day I open it up and I think maybe somebody came and shot for me.
But no, no, there's nothing in there. The only thing that happens is sometimes if I ordered door-dash late at night and I forget that I had leftovers, there's that surprise. Oh, love it. You know, where I'll open the fridge and then there's that like gleaming. You know, it's like you open it up in like a ray of sunshine comes out of the refrigerator. It's that leftover item that you forgot that you had. Oh, a beautiful surprise. Yes. Yes, I did that the other day where I ordered something for God I had done it. You know, eight half of it put it in the refrigerator. I was hungry. I did the thing where I opened the refrigerator hoping that food appeared and that day it did. And there it was. It was something leftover from the night before and it was made my day. Treated yourself good. Right. Right. Just like Jose, let's get to headlined biggest stories of the day and the entertainment report. Next, after Olivia Dean, French Y'all.
