Oh nice. Yeah, 103 00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:39.720 and she's like, oh my god, he's so nice. His name is 104 00:08:39.720 --> 00:08:43.440 Sammy. Hi, Sammy, Hi, Sammy from San Diego Crystals and Jewelry. 105 00:08:43.480 --> 00:08:46.320 Thank you so much for sponsoring Laura Kane after Dark, and thank you 106 00:08:46.360 --> 00:08:52.559 for the donation as well. Thank you. Okay, now, my host 107 00:08:52.639 --> 00:09:03.840 chat, Sir erger Loin's. Somebody was kind enough last week to give me 108 00:09:03.320 --> 00:09:07.720 a gift. I'm not gonna say who it was, but the gift was 109 00:09:07.759 --> 00:09:16.559 a gift card. It was an American Express gift card. And this person 110 00:09:16.600 --> 00:09:18.480 gave it to me in an envelope, in a little card, and I 111 00:09:18.639 --> 00:09:20.919 was like, oh, that's so and I thank you so so much. 112 00:09:22.360 --> 00:09:26.320 I get into my car. Before I start the car, I open up 113 00:09:26.720 --> 00:09:31.000 the envelope and you know how gift cards are attached to paper like that with 114 00:09:31.039 --> 00:09:41.840 that sticky stuff sometimes so it shows the amount the card. I was taking 115 00:09:41.840 --> 00:09:46.000 it off the paper, it like fumbled out of my hands and it went 116 00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:50.519 straight down into the slot where my parking break comes up. So it is 117 00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:54.879 like the thinnest slot you could possibly imagine, and it goes all the way 118 00:09:54.919 --> 00:09:58.120 down to the floor. Because you couldn't wait to do that until you got 119 00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:03.159 home the gift card. She already had three things she was waiting to buy 120 00:10:03.639 --> 00:10:09.360 second, so oddly the websites that were up on her phone were Sheen, 121 00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:22.840 Tufty Girl, and Timus. The card was worth one thousand dollars. You're 122 00:10:22.840 --> 00:10:26.279 an idiot, Laura. It wasn't my fall it was a complete and total 123 00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:33.480 freak accident. Is it still down there? So, oh god, I 124 00:10:33.480 --> 00:10:37.240 immediately drive home because I can't see it. You could barely even see down 125 00:10:37.639 --> 00:10:41.679 in there, so I can't see it. So I got I get home, 126 00:10:41.759 --> 00:10:43.679 I get a long screwdriver. I'm trying. I'm going in there. 127 00:10:43.720 --> 00:10:48.879 I have a flashlight. I'm looking. I couldn't find it. I think 128 00:10:48.919 --> 00:10:52.159 I probably pushed it back farther. And the way my car is, you 129 00:10:52.200 --> 00:10:58.320 can't reach underneath the console. So anyway, I panicked. I took it 130 00:10:58.399 --> 00:11:01.879 to one mechanic real quick. They blew me off. I was like fine, 131 00:11:01.919 --> 00:11:05.080 I took it to a second mechanic. They said, well, we're 132 00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:09.679 going to have to remove the entire center console and that'll be a thousand dollars. 133 00:11:11.519 --> 00:11:15.039 That'll take no, three hundred dollars. It was going to cost me 134 00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:20.759 and we can't take you till monday. So I'm freaking out right. I 135 00:11:20.799 --> 00:11:22.600 know there's one thousand dollars in my car, And did you say, do 136 00:11:22.600 --> 00:11:28.240 you know how much shit I want to buy? Today? Okay, anyway, 137 00:11:28.840 --> 00:11:33.559 the sale ends tomorrow. I'm like, what the hell? That is 138 00:11:33.720 --> 00:11:37.399 ridiculous. I'm not going to pay three hundred dollars to get it. I 139 00:11:37.519 --> 00:11:39.879 guess it makes sense because then I still have seven hundred dollars left. But 140 00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:48.600 what the heck? So long story short, Antonio on Saturday took apart my 141 00:11:48.759 --> 00:11:52.080 car because a jef you can kind of take it apart. Took the seats 142 00:11:52.120 --> 00:12:01.080 out, managed to find the gift card, but in the process also found 143 00:12:01.600 --> 00:12:09.000 the following in my car the crevice of my car. I can't hold hold 144 00:12:09.039 --> 00:12:13.919 on. I didn't write it all down. An old tarnished ring like an 145 00:12:15.320 --> 00:12:18.799 ing. No, it was tarnish because it was fake. Okay, lipstick 146 00:12:18.840 --> 00:12:26.080 with no lid, one small hoop earring, three pens, a metal carabineer. 147 00:12:26.360 --> 00:12:30.399 You know what that? You know what that is? Clumps and clumps 148 00:12:30.440 --> 00:12:37.519 and clumps of dog hair no less than ten sour gummy bears that fell when 149 00:12:37.559 --> 00:12:41.799 I used to when I was in my sour gummy bear phase three, broken 150 00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:48.240 hard French fries. Strand upon strand upon strand of blonde hair, some of 151 00:12:48.279 --> 00:12:52.559 it my real hair, some of it my hair that's taped onto my head, 152 00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:58.240 your magic hair. Yes, a Robbert nozzle that used to attach to 153 00:12:58.360 --> 00:13:03.679 a car vacuum that I threw away. Oh, a ross tag that said 154 00:13:03.720 --> 00:13:07.200 seven ninety nine on it, an old Christmas card from the Haas family, 155 00:13:09.879 --> 00:13:16.440 leaves from trees, dirt dust, sticky stuff and a CVS receipt and her 156 00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:22.919 birth certificate and her life savings. Isn't that gross? Do you know what 157 00:13:24.000 --> 00:13:28.759 Antonio would find if he took a part my car? Like nothing, absolutely 158 00:13:28.799 --> 00:13:31.279 nothing? It would be showroom new. And you know what your car is 159 00:13:31.360 --> 00:13:37.360 showroom new? About six months ago, I spent two hundred dollars getting my 160 00:13:37.399 --> 00:13:45.759 car detailed. All that accumulated in six months? Can you fead my god? 161 00:13:45.879 --> 00:13:50.720 But the good news is I am now in possession of the thousand dollars 162 00:13:50.799 --> 00:13:54.519 gift card. And do your seats work in your g Yes? But there's 163 00:13:54.720 --> 00:14:00.840 there's one little broken part on my uh my, on my console, but 164 00:14:00.919 --> 00:14:03.600 it's okay, I'm gonna glue it. And she goes, Eric, Eric, 165 00:14:03.720 --> 00:14:07.159 we need new microphones for the set for our show. Anyways, guess 166 00:14:07.159 --> 00:14:13.080 what I just got from TIMU with a thousand dollars No, you know what? 167 00:14:13.320 --> 00:14:16.639 I try googled can you turn a gift card into cash? And you 168 00:14:16.679 --> 00:14:22.919 can't. Nobody has never given one thousand dollars gift card. Yeah. Actually 169 00:14:22.759 --> 00:14:26.639 trick. Did you turn? I'm gonna say who it's from, why or 170 00:14:26.679 --> 00:14:33.399 anything? Do anything for the gift card? I was just myself. Okay, 171 00:14:33.440 --> 00:14:39.159 which corner did you get the gift card on? Shut up? But 172 00:14:39.200 --> 00:14:43.279 that was an alcohol bulevar or Texas Street? It was definitely alcohol. It 173 00:14:43.320 --> 00:14:48.360 is Texas Street actually, god, oh my god. But anyway, good 174 00:14:48.399 --> 00:14:52.639 news.

But I can't 181 00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:20.360 really think of anything right now. So I'm just I'm not going to use 182 00:15:20.399 --> 00:15:22.639 it piece by piece.

You're gonna love this. 236 00:19:25.400 --> 00:19:30.279 Okay, but first we need to do a little bit of double D 237 00:19:30.559 --> 00:19:34.880 news. Oh yeah, baby, our show business, our celebrity gossip we 238 00:19:34.960 --> 00:19:40.599 call the Double D's Daily Dirt. I can blow this. I mean I 239 00:19:40.599 --> 00:19:45.759 can blow through this pretty quickly. Sorry, Oh my goodness, excuse me. 240 00:19:45.960 --> 00:19:53.119 So Norman Lear dead at one hundred and one. He created them all 241 00:19:53.160 --> 00:20:02.119 in the family. What the Jeffersons, the Jefferson's h there's like two or 242 00:20:02.119 --> 00:20:04.920 three, one day at a time. Sad that Betty White didn't make it 243 00:20:04.920 --> 00:20:08.079 to one hundred, I know, just like a week short of her birthday 244 00:20:08.160 --> 00:20:14.039 or something like that. Ryan O'Neill dead at eighty two. Yeah, I 245 00:20:14.079 --> 00:20:17.640 saw that. I just watched What's Up Doc a couple weeks ago. It's 246 00:20:17.640 --> 00:20:21.759 some one of my favorite movies. I His daughter was a client of mine, 247 00:20:21.799 --> 00:20:22.640 so I reached out to I haven't heard back yet, though. It 248 00:20:22.759 --> 00:20:30.880 just sent her our condolences. Oh that's nice. So Beyonce's Renaissance concert film 249 00:20:30.960 --> 00:20:34.160 opened at number one, but has now slipped to number five. My daughter 250 00:20:34.480 --> 00:20:38.039 and her friend called me on the way back from this movie and they were 251 00:20:38.079 --> 00:20:42.599 like, OMG, OMG, the best movie I heard. It's amazing. 252 00:20:42.680 --> 00:20:45.359 What do they love about it? The plot was there? The plot twist 253 00:20:45.359 --> 00:20:48.799 halfway through? I guess I didn't expect it. The way it was filmed 254 00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:52.160 was super cool, and she said it was so loud. She goes, 255 00:20:52.759 --> 00:20:56.200 and these are twenty these are nineteen year olds, saying that it was so 256 00:20:56.519 --> 00:21:00.839 loud. Oh, I probably wouldn't get through. I agree. Movies are 257 00:21:00.880 --> 00:21:03.400 typically too loud in the theaters. I'd be like, somebody turn it down. 258 00:21:03.799 --> 00:21:07.400 But it's gone now you can't see. I guess after this weekend it's 259 00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:11.160 not in theaters. Thing. Oh, then it'll be on Netflix. That's 260 00:21:11.200 --> 00:21:15.799 what I figured. Watch. I heard it's almost three hours long, so 261 00:21:15.880 --> 00:21:18.519 I'm good. That's insane. And watch his concerts in a theater. But 262 00:21:18.680 --> 00:21:22.599 the way it's shot it probably it's probably super artsy. I heard it's really 263 00:21:22.640 --> 00:21:26.839 really good and she devotes a lot of time to like the backstage people. 264 00:21:26.559 --> 00:21:33.160 You should see the trailer. It's really really impressive. I'm good, Okay, 265 00:21:33.880 --> 00:21:38.680 fine, I think about okay. The nominations for the Golden Globes are 266 00:21:38.799 --> 00:21:44.680 out. Barbie and Oppenheimer are leading the pack, and the Bear with nine 267 00:21:44.720 --> 00:21:49.640 nominations each. Killers of the Flower Moon and Poor Things are coming in second 268 00:21:49.680 --> 00:21:55.839 with seven nominations. Poor Things, Yes, it's that's with Emma Stone Stone. 269 00:21:56.759 --> 00:22:00.599 I think this is a TV show. No, it's a movie and 270 00:22:00.640 --> 00:22:04.680 it's out already. I think kind of like a female Frankinsight where they kind 271 00:22:04.680 --> 00:22:07.279 of put her together, and I think so it was like a limited release. 272 00:22:07.480 --> 00:22:11.160 Yeah, do I want to see Oppenheimer. I don't think you'd like 273 00:22:11.240 --> 00:22:15.920 it. You would definitely not like it. Why you say that it's a 274 00:22:15.000 --> 00:22:19.559 biopic and it's like three hours long? Why would you say that you don't 275 00:22:19.599 --> 00:22:22.039 think I like that kind of thing. I don't know. No, I 276 00:22:22.119 --> 00:22:26.759 love documentary types of documentary. I know that. Speaking of documentaries, have 277 00:22:26.880 --> 00:22:33.319 you watched Bad Surgeon? Yes, Oh my god, is insane? Is 278 00:22:33.960 --> 00:22:41.039 co z Okay insane? And then I just watched another one called Nice Life, 279 00:22:41.079 --> 00:22:45.680 Beautiful Picture or something like that. It's on HBO Max and it's documentary 280 00:22:45.799 --> 00:22:53.839 about a pedophile and all these years of what molestation has done to the victims. 281 00:22:53.960 --> 00:23:00.400 It's extremely, extremely sad, but it's very, very, very well 282 00:23:00.400 --> 00:23:04.960 done. I wait to turn it on after it is a friend of mine 283 00:23:06.039 --> 00:23:14.400 talking about it. It's very it's a it's unbelievable. Wow. Last thing, 284 00:23:15.319 --> 00:23:19.400 not that we care, but Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Jenshaw, 285 00:23:19.440 --> 00:23:23.440 who's in prison right now wants Kim Kardashian to portray her in a potential 286 00:23:23.440 --> 00:23:29.440 biopic. Why would anybody make a biopic about her? Nobody cares about that 287 00:23:29.519 --> 00:23:33.400 chick. Nobody cares about that franchise of Real Housewives? Right, did you 288 00:23:33.440 --> 00:23:37.519 care about it? It's pretty good? Okay, somebody cares about it. 289 00:23:37.920 --> 00:23:41.400 I don't know. I don't know. I haven't watched since I lost cable. 290 00:23:41.440 --> 00:23:44.599 I don't know. I don't even know where to get Bravo anymore. 291 00:23:44.960 --> 00:23:48.039 Oh and by the way, I may be able to explain my random coughing 292 00:23:48.440 --> 00:23:52.759 that's been going on for months. Yes, his occasional cough on Mike. 293 00:23:53.039 --> 00:24:00.119 I may have asked reflux and yeah, something okay, happens when you're almost 294 00:24:00.160 --> 00:24:10.039 a hundred Clia weird. Laughing is a factor. So from now on, 295 00:24:10.160 --> 00:24:11.640 I'm gonna be the voice of doom and gloom, and I'm never gonna laugh 296 00:24:11.640 --> 00:24:17.039 again.

Hello, Welcome 337 00:27:41.359 --> 00:27:48.400 to Laura Kane after Dark. Hello. Hi, Okay, So I was 338 00:27:48.440 --> 00:27:52.400 scrolling through Instagram one day and I don't know how it happened upon Doll Face 339 00:27:52.480 --> 00:28:00.440 Club and I look and there's the coolest clothes hoodie, these T shirts, 340 00:28:00.480 --> 00:28:06.319 sets, jackets, all different designs, and I'm like, I am really 341 00:28:06.359 --> 00:28:11.640 attracted to this, this aesthetic. I loved it. And then when I 342 00:28:11.720 --> 00:28:17.519 found out that you opened a sober living home, I was like, oh 343 00:28:17.559 --> 00:28:21.960 my god, because I was in a sober living home and I believe that 344 00:28:21.960 --> 00:28:27.160 that two months I spent there saved my life because I went from rehab and 345 00:28:27.200 --> 00:28:30.640 I thought I was just going to go to rehab and then just come back 346 00:28:30.680 --> 00:28:37.039 home. I needed more treatment and I needed to learn how to live as 347 00:28:37.039 --> 00:28:41.319 a sober woman. And that's what the Sober Living House does for a woman, 348 00:28:41.400 --> 00:28:48.119 for anybody really. So Claia tell us a little bit about yourself and 349 00:28:48.359 --> 00:28:52.200 why this is your passion and why you open the house. Tell us a 350 00:28:52.240 --> 00:28:57.480 little bit about your history. Where do I start. I'm an immigrant, 351 00:28:59.359 --> 00:29:06.799 so I, you know, spent my younger years in and out of jail 352 00:29:07.000 --> 00:29:11.160 and just on drugs, you know, and pretty much not seeing anything other 353 00:29:11.240 --> 00:29:17.799 than that lifestyle. And then I got clean at the age of twenty two 354 00:29:17.920 --> 00:29:22.720 and by chance, not planned obviously, you know, And it was more 355 00:29:22.759 --> 00:29:27.319 of like a force fully I guess you could say, because I had the 356 00:29:27.599 --> 00:29:32.039 judge pretty much gave me one chance to like get it together. I've had 357 00:29:32.119 --> 00:29:34.200 multiple chances, but once ice catches you, I don't think. I don't 358 00:29:34.240 --> 00:29:37.400 know if you guys know, but no, it's ice, you know. 359 00:29:37.480 --> 00:29:42.240 It's like, well, how they you know, take illegal immigrants, you 360 00:29:42.279 --> 00:29:47.200 know. And so where where are you from? I'm from Albania, full 361 00:29:47.279 --> 00:29:51.079 born, raised my whole family. And then when did you come to the 362 00:29:51.079 --> 00:29:53.640 States nineteen ninety six? Oh okay, yeah, I been here since I 363 00:29:53.640 --> 00:30:00.319 was six. Oh okay, yeah, so you they were particularly hard you 364 00:30:00.480 --> 00:30:03.200 because of absolutely it was actually really eye opening it at the time too, 365 00:30:03.240 --> 00:30:07.119 because I was locked up with normally when I get locked up, I'm in 366 00:30:07.160 --> 00:30:10.799 county you know. But if I catches you in time, I got built 367 00:30:10.839 --> 00:30:11.839 out right away. But if I catches you, they'll pick you up and 368 00:30:11.880 --> 00:30:15.640 then you're done. You're gonna get deported, you know. So I remember 369 00:30:15.759 --> 00:30:21.079 being down in federal prison with like everybody that there's a lot of people that 370 00:30:21.319 --> 00:30:22.720 just tried to cross the border, and here I am just like taking it 371 00:30:22.799 --> 00:30:26.160 for granted. You know, I'm here already, and I'm just I was 372 00:30:26.200 --> 00:30:30.400 young, and you know, I you know, we if you've been in 373 00:30:30.440 --> 00:30:33.799 a subber living, we all have traumatic childhoods at some point, you know. 374 00:30:33.960 --> 00:30:37.359 So, yeah, I got clean when I was twenty two, and 375 00:30:37.599 --> 00:30:41.519 for a few years I just tried to be learn how to be a productive 376 00:30:41.519 --> 00:30:45.400 member of society and just kind of be normal, you know, and have 377 00:30:45.480 --> 00:30:51.240 a regular job and not do crime and just kind of have peace without chaos, 378 00:30:51.279 --> 00:30:53.000 you know. And then after my third year of being clean, that's 379 00:30:53.039 --> 00:30:57.240 when I got the idea for Dollface Club, which initially we had already been 380 00:30:57.240 --> 00:31:00.880 doing service events with my friends, you know, to stay clean. Service 381 00:31:02.000 --> 00:31:04.319 is a big part of what keeps us clean, you know, giving back. 382 00:31:04.400 --> 00:31:10.599 So we were doing service events and then I was like, like, 383 00:31:10.720 --> 00:31:14.400 I think it was like a hashtag on Instagram that I commented back to somebody 384 00:31:14.400 --> 00:31:15.559 that I put Dollphace Club and it was in the middle of the night, 385 00:31:15.640 --> 00:31:18.440 and then I clicked on it and there was nothing, and I was like 386 00:31:18.519 --> 00:31:22.559 this can't be right, you know. So then like I did like a 387 00:31:22.559 --> 00:31:26.319 Google search and there was like a roller derby in like Kentucky or something, 388 00:31:26.359 --> 00:31:29.200 you know, and I was like, no problem, you know. And 389 00:31:29.240 --> 00:31:33.559 then the next day, literally the next day, this was a Sunday night. 390 00:31:33.599 --> 00:31:38.119 The next morning, I took I went down to like the courthouse off 391 00:31:38.119 --> 00:31:41.000 the Harbor Drive, you know, where they sell the fbns, and I 392 00:31:41.039 --> 00:31:44.839 went and searched if there was anything called doll Face Club. And then they 393 00:31:44.839 --> 00:31:45.720 were like no, They're like what is it going to be? And I'm 394 00:31:45.720 --> 00:31:51.119 like a clothing brand, I guess, you know. And then I walked 395 00:31:51.160 --> 00:31:53.160 down those steps leaving there, and I just it all hate me. I'm 396 00:31:53.200 --> 00:31:56.640 like, oh my god, I'm going to do like this is what my 397 00:31:56.640 --> 00:31:59.480 friends are going to be called, and we're gonna wear the shirts and we're 398 00:31:59.480 --> 00:32:02.039 going to do a bit and we're just it's gonna like we're gonna have different 399 00:32:02.119 --> 00:32:05.960 chapters and different cities, you know. Like just a dreaming like I was 400 00:32:06.039 --> 00:32:08.559 dreaming at that time, you know, and then yeah, I mean I 401 00:32:08.559 --> 00:32:14.039 didn't. It's just grown a lot. So how many years have you been 402 00:32:14.039 --> 00:32:17.400 sober? Now? I've been today, oh sorry, last week? Clean? 403 00:32:17.680 --> 00:32:23.000 Eleven years? Okay, thank you. Getting sober at twenty two. 404 00:32:23.160 --> 00:32:28.759 Clean and sober at twenty two is very difficult. You're still so young, 405 00:32:29.079 --> 00:32:34.400 your friends are all partying. Well, I guess you surrounded yourself with friends 406 00:32:34.400 --> 00:32:37.680 that didn't do that. But that I mean, kudos to you, because 407 00:32:37.119 --> 00:32:40.960 that is that is tough at that age. I was around a lot of 408 00:32:40.960 --> 00:32:45.680 older people too, though, and the lifestyle I was running was not like 409 00:32:45.880 --> 00:32:49.759 I don't even think I've ever maybe I went to a bar one time in 410 00:32:49.759 --> 00:32:52.319 my life. I wasn't ever at bars in my active using, you know, 411 00:32:52.400 --> 00:32:59.559 I was literally a criminal. So I think that happens in our active 412 00:32:59.559 --> 00:33:01.920 addiction, and they tried to keep us in that lifestyle, you know, 413 00:33:02.559 --> 00:33:07.440 like the temptation of like you know, but yeah, I know, I 414 00:33:07.480 --> 00:33:14.039 hear you. Well, how did you then open up this incredible sober living 415 00:33:14.079 --> 00:33:20.319 home. So when I started Dolphace Club, within like a year, I 416 00:33:20.359 --> 00:33:22.519 want to say, within that first year, we were wearing the shirt that 417 00:33:22.599 --> 00:33:25.880 I designed. The one kind of looks like that, but it was just 418 00:33:25.920 --> 00:33:29.559 black. It didn't have members only at the bottom. It was I went 419 00:33:29.599 --> 00:33:31.200 to a mall Kiosk and I was like, I just want to do those 420 00:33:31.200 --> 00:33:35.000 shirt was hideous, the first one who made and they charged me ridiculously, 421 00:33:35.039 --> 00:33:37.519 you know, But so we all, you know, my friends were wearing 422 00:33:37.559 --> 00:33:39.680 the same shirt for a long time and then they were like, you know, 423 00:33:40.960 --> 00:33:44.440 we're wearing the same thing. Can you just like make something else? 424 00:33:44.480 --> 00:33:47.160 And I'm like, no, I'm not a designer, like we're talking about, 425 00:33:47.200 --> 00:33:52.160 you know. And then that same night, I literally cut out her 426 00:33:52.200 --> 00:33:54.920 shirt and put it on like an old thrift store jacket. And then everything 427 00:33:55.000 --> 00:34:00.000 took off from there where I was like, well, this is an old 428 00:34:00.000 --> 00:34:05.319 thrift stoaree jacket. But look I got this at her little pop up on 429 00:34:05.400 --> 00:34:08.440 Saturday. Look how cute that is. It's upcycling. I love upsycling, 430 00:34:09.159 --> 00:34:15.239 so okay, so okay. So from then, you know, the brand 431 00:34:15.360 --> 00:34:21.639 really really took off for me. Like it from selling forty dollars jackets in 432 00:34:21.679 --> 00:34:23.960 the living room, you know, my jackets are like five hundred dollars now, 433 00:34:24.000 --> 00:34:27.920 you know, And for a long time, I started feeling like, 434 00:34:28.199 --> 00:34:31.000 Okay, well the brand is going great. I finally don't need a day 435 00:34:31.079 --> 00:34:36.280 job, you know, Like I'm I'm living a great lifestyle thanks to recovery 436 00:34:36.280 --> 00:34:39.039 and thanks to staying clean and thanks to everybody supporting the brand. And I've 437 00:34:39.079 --> 00:34:43.280 been praying like I need something else, like something something more, you know. 438 00:34:43.599 --> 00:34:47.079 And then that's when this. Honestly, my sister is the one who 439 00:34:47.119 --> 00:34:50.119 brought it to me because I have but we also have a friend in the 440 00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:52.960 siber living industry, and my sister was like, you know, you would 441 00:34:52.039 --> 00:34:55.039 kill it if we just did this together. And I'm like, yeah, 442 00:34:55.079 --> 00:34:59.400 maybe, you know, and then last minute she backed out, and you 443 00:34:59.440 --> 00:35:02.559 know, it just everything just kind of like flowed together. And then I 444 00:35:02.679 --> 00:35:07.519 just had this like idea where I'm like, I upcycle clothes, you know, 445 00:35:07.679 --> 00:35:10.559 reduce the carbon fiberprint, you know, and I like to use older 446 00:35:10.599 --> 00:35:14.599 things and make them new again because it's also one of one, you know. 447 00:35:15.039 --> 00:35:16.760 And then I'm like, oh my god, I could thrift store furniture 448 00:35:16.880 --> 00:35:22.280 and like revamp it and like make it so that the whole house is custom. 449 00:35:22.400 --> 00:35:24.960 And I wanted to go that route with the Sober Living because I too 450 00:35:25.119 --> 00:35:30.360 wasn't sober livings in the beginning, and I had like horrendous experience, horrific 451 00:35:30.760 --> 00:35:36.280 furniture, horrific like everything literally every like, and I just wanted to provide 452 00:35:36.320 --> 00:35:38.159 something that I didn't have when I got clean, you know. Same with 453 00:35:38.199 --> 00:35:42.679 the club in general, like some sort of like a group of women that 454 00:35:42.719 --> 00:35:45.119 I would have hung out with when I was younger that probably would have steered 455 00:35:45.159 --> 00:35:49.039 me away from what I ended up doing. And with the sober living the 456 00:35:49.039 --> 00:35:52.480 same thing kind of just fell in my lap in regards to like I this 457 00:35:52.599 --> 00:35:54.719 home is literally what I wish I had when I got clean, you know. 458 00:35:54.960 --> 00:35:59.679 Yeah, and it's it just like came together. It's like I found 459 00:35:59.679 --> 00:36:04.320 the tape and just everything else just kind of like I don't know the whole 460 00:36:04.400 --> 00:36:07.440 vibe of that because I went to the meeting on Wednesday night. Is it 461 00:36:07.440 --> 00:36:12.519 an open meeting, Yes, okay, there's an open NA meeting on Wednesday 462 00:36:12.679 --> 00:36:17.159 Women's meeting at the house at six thirty on Wednesday nights. And when I 463 00:36:17.239 --> 00:36:22.360 walked in that house, the vibe, the feel it was just such the 464 00:36:22.960 --> 00:36:28.000 just a flood of good feelings and the girls that live there, there's thirteen 465 00:36:28.039 --> 00:36:30.719 of them right now that live there. Right is? How many does the 466 00:36:30.800 --> 00:36:34.559 household? How many can the household? Well, I have one that's the 467 00:36:34.559 --> 00:36:37.960 house manager and she has her own room, and then there's twelve other girls. 468 00:36:38.000 --> 00:36:43.280 That's the max. And then how if somebody was thinking, I really 469 00:36:43.519 --> 00:36:46.880 would love to try sober living or is there a waiting list? This is 470 00:36:46.880 --> 00:36:51.199 there. You know, there is a waiting list right now. Unfortunately, 471 00:36:51.199 --> 00:36:52.760 he drives me nuts. I'm like, I need another house now. So 472 00:36:52.800 --> 00:36:58.239 if anybody's watching that's renting for and up bedrooms, I will rent it from 473 00:36:58.239 --> 00:37:01.000 you and I will make it worth it. Oh my god, I'm like 474 00:37:01.159 --> 00:37:06.000 literally looking for houses right now because at first I was like I just want 475 00:37:06.039 --> 00:37:07.199 to own all these houses, but now that I'm in it, like I 476 00:37:07.239 --> 00:37:10.760 would rather not, you know, and and with the interest rates, it's 477 00:37:10.760 --> 00:37:14.719 crazy right now noways anyways, that's a whole different conversation.

I remember that list. I remember like 506 00:39:05.039 --> 00:39:07.800 being on that list and when I was had bathroom duty and when I had 507 00:39:07.800 --> 00:39:09.639 this duty, and when I had that duty, I was like, oh 508 00:39:09.719 --> 00:39:14.320 my god, this is bringing back to so many memories. But it is 509 00:39:14.440 --> 00:39:17.639 just so this is what we're raising money for. We've decided that you are 510 00:39:17.679 --> 00:39:24.599 going to be our Christmas holiday box recipient of the money that we thank you 511 00:39:24.719 --> 00:39:29.360 rage and the girls are so grateful too. They're like, oh they really 512 00:39:29.400 --> 00:39:31.360 are. I mean they one of the girls was saying, like they just 513 00:39:31.400 --> 00:39:36.599 need stuff like like toilet paper or tampons or like you know, food or 514 00:39:36.760 --> 00:39:39.039 games to play. Like one of the girls says, I would love to 515 00:39:39.039 --> 00:39:45.039 go skydiving, Like I have a bucket list of things I want to do 516 00:39:45.079 --> 00:39:47.719 now that I'm clean, Like I feel like I just want to take on 517 00:39:47.719 --> 00:39:51.199 the world. And I was, Oh, my god, I can make 518 00:39:51.239 --> 00:39:53.679 that happen for you. So I'm going to I'm working on that one for 519 00:39:53.719 --> 00:39:58.320 her. But so this is where the money's going to go. It's going 520 00:39:58.400 --> 00:40:00.000 to go to the house, going to go to things that you and like 521 00:40:00.159 --> 00:40:07.639 we were talking, sometimes in sober living, there's like downtime and that can 522 00:40:07.679 --> 00:40:14.000 be a little dangerous, right when you get a little bored or so there's 523 00:40:14.079 --> 00:40:19.039 activities that this money will go for, like he like outings and like field 524 00:40:19.079 --> 00:40:22.639 trips and stuff like that, and talk about what you're doing in January. 525 00:40:22.679 --> 00:40:25.000 So I love this. So we had one of my really good friends, 526 00:40:25.079 --> 00:40:30.440 Astrad, she's an amazing tattoo artist. She had this idea of doing a 527 00:40:30.559 --> 00:40:36.280 DFC tattoos Dolphace Club DFC, and then all the donate, like everything that 528 00:40:36.360 --> 00:40:37.760 they would pay for the tattoos, she's going to donate to the house. 529 00:40:38.119 --> 00:40:42.159 And then she raised around eighteen hundred dollars. We all did this at the 530 00:40:42.159 --> 00:40:45.679 house and then now We're going to go to Big Bear for the whole house. 531 00:40:45.679 --> 00:40:47.719 We got like a mansion house, case, spapool table. Oh, 532 00:40:49.000 --> 00:40:52.159 we're taking all the girls. Some of them have never seen snow. Oh 533 00:40:52.239 --> 00:40:54.079 my god. No, some from the nineteenth to the twenty first we're going 534 00:40:54.159 --> 00:40:58.119 to be in Big Bear. So I'm really excited. I'm like a weirdo 535 00:40:58.199 --> 00:41:01.960 about snow. I love snow. Really, did you? Is it snowy 536 00:41:02.039 --> 00:41:06.159 in Albania? So? I was born in Albania, but when I was 537 00:41:06.159 --> 00:41:08.039 seven months old, I moved to northern Italy until I was until we moved 538 00:41:08.079 --> 00:41:13.119 here. In the part in Bergamo where we lived, it literally snowed, 539 00:41:13.119 --> 00:41:15.599 like I want to say, it was like right on Christmas Day, Like 540 00:41:15.679 --> 00:41:19.239 that's how close it was to like the map. But then you know, 541 00:41:19.280 --> 00:41:22.679 you're a kid, so it could have been like not and it could have 542 00:41:22.679 --> 00:41:28.760 been like but yeah. So there's just like nostalgia about like snow. I 543 00:41:28.800 --> 00:41:31.280 love it makes me happy. And I think being there with everybody and having 544 00:41:31.320 --> 00:41:35.519 like a unique sover leavings that really and you know what, they're going to 545 00:41:35.559 --> 00:41:38.599 be so grateful. It's not like anybody's gonna be whining about having to go 546 00:41:38.639 --> 00:41:42.920 to the snow like everybody's going to be so, yeah, we can go 547 00:41:43.119 --> 00:41:45.360 like play and yeah, I don't know, I'm really excited. I think 548 00:41:45.360 --> 00:41:49.239 it's gonna be cool. That's gonna be so much fun. And you know 549 00:41:49.320 --> 00:41:52.360 what, guess what, Eric, you can be part of the Dolphins Club 550 00:41:52.400 --> 00:41:55.760 as well. It's not just for people in recovery, it's not. It's 551 00:41:55.800 --> 00:42:00.840 for people that want to help the community. Yeah, and so there's something 552 00:42:00.840 --> 00:42:05.559 else you're doing coming up at Father Joe's right, Yes, And January thirteenth, 553 00:42:05.639 --> 00:42:07.880 we're gonna be at nine am at twenty four to ten Et Street and 554 00:42:08.440 --> 00:42:12.840 we're going into the day Center. So there's gonna be They said that normally 555 00:42:12.840 --> 00:42:15.039 when they do events there, there's around one hundred homeless people that come for 556 00:42:15.079 --> 00:42:19.440 the day. And we're gonna do bingo, so we're gonna collect prizes for 557 00:42:19.519 --> 00:42:22.960 that. And then we have two speakers, both of them in recovery. 558 00:42:23.000 --> 00:42:28.639 But you know, the woman speaker is so powerful. She's gonna be telling 559 00:42:28.679 --> 00:42:31.360 her story there and she was actually there herself and now her life is just 560 00:42:31.400 --> 00:42:36.400 beautiful, you know. So it's gonna be cool and we're gonna you know, 561 00:42:36.679 --> 00:42:40.159 I think it's gonna be a powerful day and Bingo's always fun like you 562 00:42:40.159 --> 00:42:45.199 know, and not just like the prizes shouldn't be just necessities. It'll be 563 00:42:45.239 --> 00:42:49.199 fun stuff too, you know. Bingo was the best. Literally, like 564 00:42:49.199 --> 00:42:52.400 I don't care if I win a toothbrush. I'm like, yes, I'm 565 00:42:52.440 --> 00:42:55.880 like weirdly competitive, you know. But these are like things you do stuff 566 00:42:55.920 --> 00:43:00.440 like this frequently, right with the girl with with once a month we do 567 00:43:00.480 --> 00:43:04.119 once a month. We skip this month because last minute we were going to 568 00:43:04.159 --> 00:43:06.679 do the Father Joes this month, but then they give us the go like 569 00:43:06.679 --> 00:43:07.599 two weeks in advance, and I'm like, no, we need more time 570 00:43:07.639 --> 00:43:13.199 than that. So once a month we do something though, So that's awesome 571 00:43:13.400 --> 00:43:17.280 as a group and anybody, you just need to buy a T shirt right 572 00:43:17.320 --> 00:43:20.960 to be part of the club. It's just a uniform. It's literally twenty 573 00:43:21.000 --> 00:43:22.960 dollars. It's just so that we all go in looking the same and you 574 00:43:23.000 --> 00:43:27.719 know, just looks. I love the way we look when we all come 575 00:43:27.760 --> 00:43:30.199 in wearing the same shirt. You know, but I can't afford it. 576 00:43:30.199 --> 00:43:31.079 You can still come. I'll give your shirt. It's not the end of 577 00:43:31.119 --> 00:43:36.400 the world. Okay, So when she does her drops because she I've been 578 00:43:36.480 --> 00:43:39.480 following I've been looking very deeply into your Instagram. I'm sorry, I'm still 579 00:43:39.480 --> 00:43:45.480 I was stalking you pretty hard. But she does drops like she shall have 580 00:43:45.519 --> 00:43:51.480 a certain theme for clothing, and like this last one you did had like 581 00:43:51.960 --> 00:43:55.159 mother Mary and you know I love religious art, you know, and then 582 00:43:55.199 --> 00:43:59.639 it's a Dolphace club over it, and then just the I got I got 583 00:43:59.639 --> 00:44:01.960 a sweat. See it was really really cute. But anyway, stuff sells 584 00:44:02.000 --> 00:44:07.119 out boom like that, I was looking through your stuff sold out, sold 585 00:44:07.119 --> 00:44:08.320 out, sold out, sold out, so I was looking for anything that 586 00:44:08.360 --> 00:44:10.719 was available. I mean, I don't know how that happened. It's just 587 00:44:10.800 --> 00:44:15.639 so great. You're so talented, and the fact that you weren't even thinking 588 00:44:15.679 --> 00:44:19.199 about being a designer like early on. I still can't believe it to this 589 00:44:19.320 --> 00:44:22.480 day. Honestly, I'm like, it's I don't I don't even I don't 590 00:44:22.480 --> 00:44:24.159 even know. I'm more of just like a creative you know. Yeah, 591 00:44:24.199 --> 00:44:27.760 I wouldn't be, like I don't want to be put in that box because 592 00:44:27.760 --> 00:44:30.599 then it's so much pressure, like what's next? What you know? And 593 00:44:30.639 --> 00:44:34.480 like I like to just feel creative and like, oh now I have like 594 00:44:34.559 --> 00:44:37.559 ten ideas. Let me go and I could do. I'm in a place 595 00:44:37.599 --> 00:44:38.719 in my life where I can do ten things at once, you know. 596 00:44:39.360 --> 00:44:45.079 But so if somebody is watching right now that maybe might is struggling, what 597 00:44:45.239 --> 00:44:49.880 is your message to them. My message is that there's hope, you know. 598 00:44:50.079 --> 00:44:52.639 And it's even though it seems like there's no way out, there's always 599 00:44:52.679 --> 00:44:55.679 a way out. You just got to reach out. And the hardest part 600 00:44:55.840 --> 00:45:00.719 is making that decision, because after that, the univer rist will flow with 601 00:45:00.760 --> 00:45:04.440 you. You know, everything will make sense and you can come out of 602 00:45:04.480 --> 00:45:07.880 it and you can have a life way better than mine. I never thought 603 00:45:07.920 --> 00:45:08.960 I would have this life if you would have asked me, you know, 604 00:45:09.079 --> 00:45:13.920 And it's still shocking to this day. I feel like I would just blink 605 00:45:13.960 --> 00:45:16.199 and it's gone, you know. But it's real and it's here because I 606 00:45:16.280 --> 00:45:21.039 made the decision to like, I'm going to try something new. That's all 607 00:45:21.079 --> 00:45:22.320 it takes is just to try something new. If it doesn't work, you 608 00:45:22.360 --> 00:45:25.320 can go back to what you're used to. But I guarantee you it to 609 00:45:25.360 --> 00:45:28.519 work, because if it worked for me, it can work for anybody. 610 00:45:28.639 --> 00:45:34.079 And you are helping others and that's what keeps us clean and sober is paying 611 00:45:34.079 --> 00:45:36.679 it forward. I feel like a lot of us have influence, you know, 612 00:45:36.760 --> 00:45:39.599 and if you're one of those people that has that type of energy, 613 00:45:39.679 --> 00:45:43.519 like you should use it for good? Why not? You know? For 614 00:45:43.599 --> 00:45:46.960 sure? Exactly? Oh my gosh, So this is where your money is 615 00:45:47.000 --> 00:45:52.119 going. See the Dolphace Club Sober Living.
