We have a very, we got a great episode.
We got Amina Imani is here already on time.
On time, thank you.
And Rosebud Baker, probably as white as it gets.
As the whitest of the white.
Doesn't get whiter than Rosebud.
Top tier white.
Her family is war criminals.
That is white as it gets.
She is late.
I feel like she needs to pay me for being late.
Yeah, that's got to feel good.
Yeah, I'm going to charge her.
It does.
I'm telling her, however many minutes she's late, I need a dollar for each
minute.
I love it.
I love it.
Maybe you guys go check out a movie.
Maybe Rosebud's the one talking.
You know what I mean?
Maybe you got to scream at her.
Oh, shit!
You're shushing her.
We're breaking the glass ceiling here at Stavis World with our guests.
Feels great.
You know, while Rosebud's not here, I have a very special deal.
I'm going to share just with you and our listeners, Amina.
Rosebud doesn't deserve to hear this.

And the Eastern Europeans, we were also on time.
So that's kind of, you know, that's, Eldis was actually early today.
He's always, he's very bad at his job, Amina.
You don't really know the dynamics here.
We're best friends.
We've been friends since we were kids.
So we're really, you know, this is a big win.
This is a big win for immigrants.
One time, but bad at your job.
You know what?
That's the magic of Eldis.
He will do one annoying thing.
Like, whatever he's fucking up the other day, he's fixing the next day.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So, like, he'll be late, but on top of shit one day.
And today feels like a day.
We have a long day.
He's on time.
I don't expect him to do well the whole time.
I expect a couple files to be corrupt.
Right, right.
Something.
In fact, we got an email today.
He had sent an attachment wrong already.
Oh, perfect.
To start the day.
I forgot to attach a link, sure.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know, no big deal.
Only the biggest advertiser we've ever worked with.
Only the most money the podcast has ever made.
Eldis almost fucked it up.
Does you need to send an email to us for we to fix you?
Seems like you need to type up an email and send it and submit it.
He does.
I'm going to call in with some professional advice using a voice, like,
modifier.
That would be awesome if you called in.
I hate my fucking boss.
My boss.
We should do that someday.
Thanks for being here, Amina.
Thanks for having me.
I'm excited.
Yeah.
This is a great studio.
Thank you.
It's nice and tucked away.
Yeah, yeah.
These are the gems of New York.
Exactly.
Nice in Astoria.
We're back.
We're in Greece, essentially.
We also like to ask our guests before we really get going, do you have any
personal experience
with Greeks or Albanians?
No, I don't.
None.
No, none, none.
Where'd you grow up?
Am I fortunate?
Yeah.
Well, Albanians, yes.
Greeks, no.
Where'd you grow up?
I grew up in Atlanta.
Oh, yeah.
No.
Black Atlanta.
Yeah, black as hell.
No Albanians, right?
I don't think so.
I don't know.
Were there Albanians in Atlanta?
Maybe now.
Yeah.
Because this is the thing.
Every city, I feel like, in the United States is trying to become New York.
Yeah, yeah, true, true.
And then I go to those cities in North Carolina and just bumble wherever, right?
Yeah, country as hell.
And they're trying to be Atlanta.
So I think now Atlanta, yeah, it's spreading slowly.
So they might have some international vibes in there.
But when I was there, it was just black, black, black.
And then I left and I was just like, oh, okay.
Yeah, yeah.
A little gentrification.
Yeah, right.
A couple of glass buildings with way too much steel.
The cookie cutter shitty buildings.
And then you get to New York and it's like, you know, it's black, but then it's
like,
you know, a lot of spices.
Yeah, a lot of shit you haven't heard of.
A lot of smells you're not familiar with in Atlanta.
And I'm like, okay, okay, I'm learning, I'm learning.
Yeah, a lot of guys in beater, like wife beaters, chains, a lot of different
ethnicities
that like that style.
From Middle Eastern to European, you get a lot of different stuff over there.
But I like it though, I like it.
It adds for adventure.
Yeah, no, I get that for sure.
I mean, we grew up, we grew up in Baltimore and Baltimore, which is, I mean, it's
mostly
black people, but it was still like, we had like Greek people.
We had a lot of Jewish people.
We had like, there was enough of a sprinkling, but you come here, especially
Queens.
And it's like restaurants.
I haven't even, like of countries I didn't know existed, have whole restaurants
here.
Exactly.
It's pretty sick.
I do love that.
And you find out some of the food is so similar, but then it's that one thing
where you're just
like, ah, not quite, not quite, but okay.
I see where you went with that.
It is true.
I also find that every single person claimed, like we were making fun of Rosebud
for being
late, whatever.
But I feel like every single like group of people I know is like, oh, we're
always late and we
love to eat.
Right.
And it's like, that's just what a human being is.
Exactly.
You know what I mean?
For sure.
Like I've heard, I've heard every variation of time.
You know what I mean?
Like every Greek people are like, oh, we're always late.
And then it's like, yeah, you better not get us around food.
It's like, we're all, everyone is just literally the same.
I think though, like it's certain, it's certain groups of people where the late
is like, okay,
well that's tomorrow.
You know what I mean?
Like, you know, we're saying late, but we're not saying the same thing, right?
We're saying late and it's like 15 minutes, 30 minutes.
That's true.
That is true.
You're a whole 24 hours late.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let's get it going.
Next day.
I did, my friend did, I do feel like there's certain people who are so mentally
ill.
That's where the lateness comes from.
My, our, we had a friend whose aunt was like truly four hours late to things.
Yeah.
And it was like, you would have to trick, trick her and tell her to complete a
different
thing.
And you think you're lying like with a good amount of time, like, oh, this hour
should work.
And it's like, no, you actually should have just told them a whole different
time.
Absolutely.
But the mental illness is real.
Like, but then also you got to learn.
I don't care what kind of person you are, right?
Like I have to do a lot of morning stuff.
I'm not a morning person.
Like I'm a like, 10 a.m.
is my good.
Like nine, 10 a.m.
The alarm goes off?
No, I'll be there on time.
You'll be there at 10.
But like anything before that, it's like, count me out.
Yeah.
That's not.
I'm with you.
I think that's reasonable.
That is not where I'm going to thrive and, and, and grow.
You can't really complain to people either about like, on comedian time about
like having to wake up at 9 a.m.
No one likes hearing that.
No, no, no, no.
But it's like, it is the hardest thing I've ever had to do.
Oh, when my sister calls me and she's at work teaching, and it's like 12 in the
afternoon.
And I'm in my bed with my shades, and the blackout curtains closed.
She's like, what's going on?
And I'm like, oh, this is just a regular day.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm getting my sleep when I don't, you know.
Is your, is your sister a teacher in Atlanta?
No, she's a teacher in D.C.
Oh, in D.C.
Yes, yes, yes.
Same, you know, because I have, my sister-in-law's a teacher in Baltimore.
Okay.
And so it is like, that's, public schools in any big city in America seems like
one of the most brutal jobs of all time.
Oh my goodness, and they have lunch at like 10, 30, and 11.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I'm like, oh, okay, because I haven't even eaten yet.
Yeah, yeah.
So that's cool, you're on your second meal.
Oh, that was always so fucked up.
Damn, you just triggered a memory of like having 10, 30 lunch, and then, uh-oh,
look who it is.
Look who it is.
The bell goes off.
Yeah, just interrupt the podcast.
Yeah, just as we got our flow, Rosebud, you fucking animal.
But I just, there was like a, like, you'd have 10, 30 lunch, and then you'd
have to like go to like gym.
Whenever you had gym, and then you're just like, you have to be in the same,
and then you have to just, you wear those like disgusting gym clothes, and then
you're back in your, we had to wear school uniforms because people were getting
jumped for, you know, throwback jerseys.
I wish I had, I wish I had school uniforms growing up.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like school uniforms to me is solid.
I like, a lot of people don't like it, but growing up, I didn't have everything
that everybody had.
Exactly.
Well, that was, yeah, totally.
And you would be there for the, oh, look who it is.
Look who, look who decided to show up.
Yeah, the late white woman.
Yeah, no, no, get comfortable.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you really bailed me out, Amina.
Yeah, I did.
Because she had me.
I was running a little late because I made, I was trying a new pancake recipe
this morning.
I was finishing, that was my, that's my excuse for running late.
Well, that's important to society as well.
Yeah.
Well, look, high protein, low cal, I'm really trying to figure out a way to
have desserts
and also lose weight.
Yes.
I'm in the lab trying to like lose weight as fatly as possible.
I get it, I get it.
That's how I used to drink.
I'd be like, how do I drink without becoming an alcoholic?
How do I drink every day?
But I feel like that makes it worse because you'll be like, oh, let me get just
straight
liquor and then it's like, you don't want any of the sugar and it's like, no,
no, no,
no, I'm watching my calories.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, 100%.
Straight, yeah, green alcohol.
Yeah, I loved it.
How's your little child, Rosebud?
She's great.
Was it her fault?
What?
Do you want to blame the baby?
Go ahead.
I want to blame her, but it was, it was me.
Okay.
It was me.
I was, I was hiring someone to raise her.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, my God.
Well, come on.
I consider adoption on a day-to-day basis.
Like, just give up, find a nice family.
It's so crazy.
In a nice home for your child.
I mean, I'm so, I'm so trapped.
It's crazy.
It's all you're doing.
It's forever.
Yeah.
It's forever.
It is forever.
And it's just a fucking anxiety attack every morning.
Yeah.
But also, she's so great.
She's cute as hell.
She's got these cheeks.
Congrats.
Yeah.
Huge, a lot of jowls going on.
A lot of jowls.
Love a fat baby.
She looks like a fucking English bulldog.
She does.
She does.
She really does.
She looks like a soccer hooligan.
Yes.
Like the old soccer hooligan.
Yes.
Like the guy who's like, he's has a cup.
I mean, a no idea.
No, no, no.
Not of that.
But I'm just listening.
I'm like, y'all gonna have to show a picture of the baby.
Yeah, yeah.
Let's pull up a fat, bald, soccer hooligan.
Yeah.
Fat, bald, soccer hooligan.
Fat, bald, soccer hooligan to compare her.
That's what you, that is basically what your daughter looks like.
She's gonna need therapy after that.
That's what she looks like.
She really does look like that, like when I'm changing her diaper.
No, you don't.
Auntie Amina didn't say that about me.
That is her body type.
Yeah.
She is built like a bullfrog.
It's awesome.
No way.
Yeah, she is.
She really is.
It's great.
You're gonna grow into that and be beautiful.
It's so weird to me.
Here's the thing that's weird to me is that that's so cute when you're a baby
and then
you get old and people go like, no.
And it's like, what?
It's like, it is funny because it's like, it's like, it's cute unless your
daughter grows
up busted as hell.
You know what I mean?
Like if she keeps that,
