How are you?
I'm great, how are you doing?
I'm doing very well, doing very well.
Yeah, my wife is, I mean, we're both fans of your show,
but my wife freaked out today
when she found you were on the program.
Oh, is she all right?
[Conan] No, she's in the hospital now,
and it's, it's all your fault.
I feel terrible.
She has what's called a girl crush on you.
Oh, that's cool that she's a fan.
Yeah, she's a huge fan.
She's like I have a girl crush on her and I said,
it's getting weird.
(laughing)
And I thought about it and thought that's cool.
Yeah.
Well, there's so much to talk about.
You're, you know, you're a very impressive person
'cause I was reading your bio today,
and it was something about how Spanish
is your first language.
You're fluent in Spanish.
It is my first language, yeah.
I grew up speaking Spanish, and I learned English in school
and, and I had a lot of, you know,
most people don't realize that I speak Spanish
because I look very white.
[Conan] Yeah.
So it's sort of like a secret
that you're fluent in Spanish?
It's like a secret, yeah.
When I was a kid, I remember like, like for instance,
going to get a haircut and, and you know,
the ladies would be speaking in Spanish behind me
and mine would say, the lady cutting my hair would say,
oh, I just took like a big chunk out of her hair and oh,
and the other one's like, well just, just tuck it in there.
She'll never notice like.
They're saying this while they're, yeah.
I'm like, oh no.
I'm like seven years old.
And my eyes like bug out of my head.
I'm like, well, crap, that's terrible.
Like, so she didn't get a tip, which, you know.
(audience laughing)
You should've just said at the end, muy malo.
I know I should've really gotten her with something.
I just didn't know what to do.
Yeah. Now you've been, you like to travel?
'Cause I mean, I like to travel too,
but we don't really ever get that much time off
consecutively on a show like this to really go anywhere.
Right.
But you, you can sometimes get like a month
or two months where you're not working.
Where do you like to go?
Well, I love going to Europe.
One of my favorite trips was actually to,
to Tuscany with my friend.
[Conan] Beautiful.
Oh, it's so beautiful.
And we took a cooking class there,
and we learned all kinds of stuff,
but mostly we just ate all the delicious food.
And that was my, that's why I went basically,
because the deal was, if you cook it, you get to eat it.
And it was like five meals a day,
or five, yeah, five courses basically to each meal.
So, so it was just a blast, I mean.
[Conan] Would you say that's your favorite cuisine?
Italian?
I love, I love all kinds of cuisine,
but I love everything from like gourmet stuff
to like Wendy's chicken nuggets,
like the 99-cent, five piece chicken nuggets.
[Conan] Wow.
Tell us, tell us more.
(audience laughing)
They're delicious.
Have you ever had them?
I have had, you know, well, I'm trying to think
if I've had Wendy's chicken.
No, I don't think so.
I don't think I've had their chicken nuggets.
What makes their chicken nuggets say superior to McDonald's
or Burger King?
They're very crispy, and then, and then, you know,
they're all like white,
white meat, and they have like different sauces and I've--
[Conan] But McDonald's has different sauces.
But it's not the same.
Not the same?
What's different about these sauces?
They're just better.
Their like barbecue,
barbecue is like the best one.
And they also, Wendy's offers Hi-C fruit punch.
You get a Hi-C fruit punch?
It's like the perfect chaser for a Wendy's chicken nugget.
So, you, what, because the flavors complement each other?
Yes, it's wonderful.
This is incredible.
Jeff, is Wendy's a sponsor for us,
or is it, who is?
Who is, who's our sponsor?
Oh, we're so screwed.
(audience laughing)
Oh no.
See, I disagree, I prefer McDonald's
because it's just better.
(audience laughing)
(audience clapping)
Wow, that's frightening.
That's uncomfortable.
I'm a little uncomfortable.
The grimace is going to be waiting by my car tonight.
Beat the crap out of me.
Sorry about that.
And then throw a shake at my head.
Doesn't happen again.
And then a McCheese will be there.
It better not happen again!
Blame it on me.
I totally believe what you're saying though.
I once got hooked on, I'm just going for it,
I got hooked once, Kentucky Fried Chicken a couple years ago
was making this extra crispy chicken sandwich.
And for some reason I had one at a KFC
that's like up on 130th street under an iron bridge.
And I was, I was going there late at night.
Like I was going to buy heroin, but I was going up there.
And I'd eat it really fast
and then I'd see like some police cars and I'd run away.
(audience laughing)
I know exactly what you're talking about.
That's what it comes to sometimes, I don't know.
Well, I'm not going to promote the movie,
ladies and gentlemen, Wendy's, check it out.
Wendy's chicken strips.
Let me ask you one thing.
It's something I'm a little curious about.
You're 24 years old, and this is a compliment,
you look much younger,
but I don't know if that's hard for you.
It's hard sometimes.
It's, you know,
you get carded a lot when you go to a bar or a club
or something, but, but no, I mean,
the weirdest thing about it is when you're working
and you know, you're gonna play like an 18 year old
in a movie.
Sometimes your costar is actually like 17 or 18,
and you have to make out with this person, but I'm 24.
And I, you know, I feel that that's wrong.
(audience laughing)
I feel like it's very wrong,
especially when it's on the cusp of like 18,
not quite, like 17.
I feel weird about that.
Like all right kid, let's do this.
(audience laughing)
I'm out of here.
You kids, you don't know what it's like.
You're so innocent,
but you get hooked on those Wendy's nuggets and then,
it's all downhill.
