Other members of the team have taken alien tacoma and used it arisen. Mitten can also be renamed to the unreason mitten. With what the team finds out about it draining life force from the person using it to bring someone from the dead back to life and suzy's plan becomes even more devious.

Suicide was who is his answer as it is for far too many though. Yes so we encourage you to reach out to suicide prevention hotline. Absolutely put that little side. They're perhaps seeing it on tv. We'll help someone. See the warning signs and avoid this finale finality. Hopefully to after we don't talk about these things ignore our own issues and our friends issues. Yeah we should. We need to be more direct about this and not be. I agree with you dave that we need to be more open about these kinds of things. I know a lot of people feel uncomfortable talking about these things but Given the alternative. I think I think a little discomfort is a good thing. Preferred thing considering what could happen.

What's kind of a psychopath will yes exactly. Because you know the nut carrying one whit for any innocence. That would be killed. All she cared about was being brought back from the dead one of the things that i thought was really interesting. That we haven't discussed yet was so after suzy's plan gwen finds out that susie. Her father has cancer and she blamed jack from giving her the access to the one thing that could save him the glove. So i kind of wanted to get your thoughts on a what you thought of of the essentially manipulating when we find out eventually that susie is You know she's got some problems with father some serious issues with her father and and That's when the whole big reveal happened so so when to get your thoughts on the way. Suzy worked win and and brought her around to earn her confidence and sympathy so our our listeners. Do not get a visual but you saying it hook line and sinker right. I bought this totally the first time. Yes i'm like glenn like. Oh yeah of course how. Unfair that you're like let me help you. Yes this is so nice and then oh You know it's a there's the joke right like I had to attend his funeral. So i can make sure the. Sob is dead right. I mean and this this whole You know she's you you've kept her you've you've you've achieved separator from her family. She's not connected with the people from torchwood. She's has to have this lonely person that she memory wipes if she can share everything and oh how much it mentally Tax you and to know that you could help your father if you just could and like no none of that. So you're cool with the idea that that susie just even though she tried to kill jack no which obviously didn't work and she tried to kill. Quinn yeah that that. Oh she was just misunderstood. I just a little bit and then and but when you start getting the reveal that you know like when gwynn's like mike my hair's wet you know and and you you understand now What's a whole series of events. It is a series of. Let me let me let me try. That'll please charles. So essentially gwynne. They're supposed to be this briefing of the team. Gwen ditches the briefing. And then take suzie out of the hub. Drives her to this..

"With her teammates. So and they all were kind of I don't know we just worked together. And that's You like to think that our heroes in this small group would be best buddies but you know there are people that we worked together with In our individual jobs that we like them but we don't know much about them you know. What are the things that one of the things i like that in this episode there was a good scene where feature between it was tosh in suzie in susan's sitting down by tasha console and trying to can just you know banter little bit either chuck just to kind of have a conversation. Yeah and tosh has zero time for susie traffic care less and then when suzy finally asks her about it tasha all like look. You know this place used to be an honorable place to work before you really shuts her down hard. She's like you know. Like i used to li- joy coming in here feeling good about the stuff that i did until you did what you did. You think of that moment. I liked it a lot charles and i liked the idea that of course we've known we know tasha so shy and we also know that torchwood has a long history of not necessarily doing the best things who the right things i mean. I know that i was a little surprised when we went back and watched the first time i watched tooth and claw and we watched it again right if the idea. That torchwood was built to be against the doctor. Not this not unit not this helpful person but actually you know we're going to fight against our own you know this. We have to have our own thing. Because there's this alien out there that we can't control that really throw you because you came from torchwood deductor who exactly. Yeah like wait. Don't know that's wrong. That's wrong so yeah i like that and i do think that the It wouldn't even talk to her. Yeah oh and just like you know you know she. She was asking okay. I wonder you there. I know you have to be around somewhere. He wouldn't respond at all. Yeah there's this all which was odd characteristic because never shuts up like me right. Yeah why will not say that. But i will say he doesn't shut up The and the the awkwardness right. The tension between that helped set the episode. And and you do get the feeling that maybe they like win a little better. They feel a little guilty about that. And i think you know. Gwen may feel guilty. I i'm not here to replace. You just took the job that they need it. Yeah yeah interesting. I really consider that you think you think they might be feeling guilty about not not just so much. What susie did.

We kind of knew what jack was anyway because of seeing how he was on doctor who yes so on. A more adult show definitely kind of suited his character. Yeah and i think it's it's interesting he is. He is a true equal opportunity. You know bisexual it is. It does not matter to him. If you're if he finds you attractive he finds you attractive and it doesn't matter what he's an omni sexual he will he will. He will f anything that moves exactly he. Will you know if if you have a lake nearby. The fish exactly so Anything else about these characters and think of anything right which is breezing right along today. Right topic number two. Let's talk owen. Tosh innuendo are torchwood supporting cast. Did you enjoy seeing these characters again. I am foremost because we talked last time. We talked torchwood he was. We're discussing right so so here we are. We're back at the beginning again. And i like these characters. They are not the most likable characters. Once again with the adult themes they are not necessarily likeable companion newton enjoy. You don't think tasha let's think it's always backing up. Owen isn't right. I think owen is the one. I'm specifically thinking about this and hopefully yes no. I really like You know tosh and janta but win can be really a jerk right But i love seeing all of them together in the interactions between each other They're a good team. And so and i like the keep tying this. This was a nice mystery of out of this happen. What is going on. Why is this. What's this person's connection to susie and then we find out. There is a literal connection That one thing the other at least to the next to the next has she didn't feel comfortable sharing things.

Where tortured is implicated and rents a foul of s. kathy swanson who is none too impressed with his charms later on jackass to kind of Grovel little bit for kathy's help because torchwood gets locked their base much much kathy and the police departments. Yeah truly a great scene where she's got him on speaker. Okay admitted say it again. a really cool character very sharp a very smart. I really liked her banter back. And forth with the jack and It's often shown in these kinds of series that the police are little incompetent and our heroes are the ones that are really smart and it wasn't the case in this case right. She is very good at what she does. Yes she has a little bit more on the ball in this one and she's able to kind of keep it together but But jackie no you know as much as they like to act like they're a little superior to the common police of of the uk that Not this time turns out.

"All go through life and have struggles and trials and we can make up our mind to change that so. I don't know your full story suzy. If there's things that you wanna share Those type of things that i mentioned Please feel free to give our listeners. A little bit of background about who is and where you've come from a now where you are now. That was a really great kind of synopsis of my journey. Ray fair what i think is is great when i'm incredibly grateful for. Is that all of those things as challenging as they were has brought me to that mindset now that was part of why I know i've asked you. What was your catalyst brought you to want to share. All this positivity and all the joy and for you that was just the natural. That was just something that you wanted to do for just took kinda harder road. It was i learned it. Wasn't i guess it wasn't what i was. I was taught and so it was in order to be able to get through the things that i was going through. Get through the challenges you learn you have choices and i you know not gonna lie with late between you know being in that almost. Why is this happening to me. Victim mentality of sitting in that and just being super sad but then with that realizing the power that i had with justice simple change of mindset to be able to create something very different and so i am just really grateful for that now that for everything that happens life has never going to be perfect challenges that are gonna come at each of us and to be able to have that even if the small challenging things to look at it be challenged by what they're but then be able to step back and be like okay. How could i look at this differently. And the more you do it better and faster that you get at it and it changes everything. It just changes your whole outlook on life and how people respond to you. How you respond to things. Yeah i love that you said that. And it's you hit it on the head where you said it's how you look at it right. It's it's not that we're none of us are going to have adversity or difficult challenges or or whatever right it but it's it's how you look at it and that perspective that you look at it so have you found like different ways to to kind of cope with some of the things that you've done that that kind of cause you to look at that thing differently and say what am i supposed to learn from this. And how's it going to help me. Yeah absolutely I was actually thinking about this this morning. That was a great question. Because it when you are especially. I mean i'm not gonna guess ages. I'm in my forties. Okay right right there with me but when you have and you're starting over so you have thirty twenty thirty forty years of a certain mindset. It's not like that changes overnight just because one day decide okay. I'm going to think about something differently. Today it's something that it took you twenty thirty forty years to have the mindset that you have that programming day. You're kinda reprogram pro. Reprogramming yourself how to look at live and how to look at situations and so i will still have that thing where you know. My initial reaction may be something that i know doesn't actually serve me and i step back and i changed that things. I do to actively keep in front of that. There's so many. I i meditate twice a day. First thing in the morning before i go to bed at night I read affirmations to myself. I also read passages from books that are inspiring to me or whatever it is that i'm going through that moment in my life helps me kind of get through it I also journal every single morning. Right down all of my thoughts before i start the day and then get in twenty minutes of Superlight just because elevates my mood and puts me in a better head space So i think having me being able to have that every morning routine makes such a huge difference. And i'll notice that when life gets busy i don't have the same thing and you kinda take detours. Oh no. I don't need to do that today or i can take the day off and then it kind of snowballs and you don't do it a few days. He just. it just completely affects everything. It affects your whole day so I've found those things to be incredibly important and it has almost become something that i won't sacrifice for something else. Yeah i i agree with you. I think doing those things every every morning or night whenever you choose especially in the morning at set your tone for the day and like you were kinda hinting towards if you don't do that in one day Your day might not goes planned. You might have a little more struggle or something but when you when you do those things like your affirmations or meditate that it really ground you and allows you to go about your day the way that you intend so. I really liked that. So going back to this video that i saw on your social media thing says that you're an advocate for love and hope and i don't know how long you've been doing this but what got you into doing this. Why are you motivated to share these messages with people in these videos and so forth. What your why. Why do you do this. It's a great question to ask him. That was an incredibly hard recovery. I actually am nelly different person than i was prior to and that was the biggest struggle there. Were so many other things that were hurt for me You know the physical things but this controls everything we do controls every thought we make and when that i mean after forty plus years changes you struggle with how to manage that you struggle with what that means you struggle with being that person you know. That's now a different person thinking about things differently and it was tough recovery with stuff. And all those physically. My doctors made sure that i was fine. There is no support from me here. And so i found that support to the people around me and i felt in red ably lucky to be where i was to have the people around me that understood the job that i was working at the time Because i don't know if if you're like me where you get brain damage and you think i'm not gonna let that stop me and so three week later you go back to work and you know. Here's this like tried to push through it like walking yet to see you know that doesn't work. Yeah so as i tried to do that. My brain is trying to tell me you can't Pretty much shut down and got to the point. Where again this was off. The brain was off. And i was trying to find. Like what is the plan to. I get back to normal Trying to find the answer. And when i went into the doctor's office i had an appointment about three months after the accident. I i was living for this plan. I didn't know what to do. I wasn't my style. This was not normal it. I would wake up different every single day. And i usually just kinda hidden in my room didn't couldn't interact with people didn't couldn't watch television. Couldn't go go grab a drink with somebody just like let it all go and so i was really trying to figure out what the plan and when i went to the doctor which was actually really hard for me to do. They didn't have a plan. Their response to me was simply. Everybody is different. This is brain damage only a few months. And you're just a baby. I'm ready for it to be over tomorrow. And they're telling me this could take a year maybe longer and and they don't know they don't know if i am going to get any better or if this is just going to be what my life is

I'm in Suzy's home in Brooklyn hoping to absorb her wisdom on branding pivoting mid-career instinct focused on the purpose. That drives her business suzie. I was planning on starting this interview by telling you that because I know interview new. I've been singing this by ethos and we're seeing that in my home all the time of But Wow I am with you on a big day for you. Yeah it's it's a very exciting day. Two two million dollars raised in an oversubscribed seed round. Yeah it's very exciting. That's got to feel good. It the imprinting is really shows how people really get the opportunity. It shows how you know. The investment community really understands who need for content and for brands hands that appeal to diverse markets diverse kids to raise families. What was it like to walk into those rooms and make those pitches it it was? I'M NOT GONNA lie. It's a little intimidating because Because I don't come from finance I've never raise is money before I got to walk in with my partner. WHO's amazing and I have a fundamental belief that if you be true to yourself everything else will follow? It was my job in those rooms to tell the story. That's all I had to do by also really felt I walked into every single Thinking if this to be it will happen. If this is not meant to be it will not happen and and that is a wonderful way of like letting go of all of your fears. I've always believed that like fears for rich people right there with insecurity. Those are like luxuries. I can't really afford so I would just walk in like okay. This is what we're doing. This is what we're doing it. It makes complete sense to us if you would like to be a part of this in help purpose built. You are welcome if you have a if you really question this opportunity if you question this market if you don't believe in what we're doing we're probably not the right fit for you you you say. Your premise is simple when in reality what you're trying to do is very complicated Build beloved brands and tell authentic stories create content inspired by a world of culture US media and technology as a force for good. Those are not simple goals. Susie you know one at a time name I I like to say you can do everything just not at once not all at once and you put one foot in front of the other. If you're gonNA build a brand it might as well. Maybe a beloved brands that stands the test of time right. If you're going to build a brand it might as well have substance. It might as well have stories if you come from a diverse this culture you might as well tell your story You might as well elevate your community And if you're an artist if you're a creative I think you you do your best when you serve when you are true to your community when you're a true to your values and when you are to the message that you think needs needs to be told at a given point in time and I think right now it's really important that our stories be told the way we wanna tell them who you say you knew what was missing in the market. What was missing? Well it's kind of funny so I I came from the advertising space and I'm GonNa just do the setup I in on a regular basis. I pitched the the multiple markets the Latino opportunity. In how how how much How powerful this market was? Did you ever get to a point where you would say. They're the most brand loyal group American. Almost gag from the fact that you have us us my my frustration with his with the Latin communities that they don't demand more they don't demand more from their media companies more from the companies that they buy from their market. It gets taken for granted completely and that was the massive source of frustration for me. It's like sure they they watch these media outlets because they're the only ones that cater to them and didn't want to tell their stories and I was like I love these cultures. I lived these cultures and so I felt that okay. So here's a business opportunity. Now you know because on a regular basis. I'm pitching this business. Yeah I know that these These my most of my clients are not really going to do much because they can. I just want to do what's good enough And I was having babies and I was kind I'm done mentally done with. Advertising was okay this is. I'm not doing what I was supposed to do. I know that you have this little inside voice. It's the little voice that tells you you know. This would be a a really good idea. You could do this really well And I wasn't drawing. I'm an artist by trade. What I studied? That's what I'm best at and I was like like you know what there's a massive opportunity to do. Wonderful beautiful illustrated stories animated projects for in my my case in the Latin community. And I'm not going to do it here in the advertising agency let me at least in a low hanging fruit I mean where my board books that celebrate my Latin culture whereas Los dos elsewhere it whereas Valencia. And I was like if I don't do this someone else is GonNa do it. They're going to do it badly. And I'm going to be so I'm going to be so are a lot of people that have done about it. I mean wouldn't you. I've had the experience of going to buy Spanish language books for my child and I was not a lot on the shelf. A lot of what's on the shelf. Feels like it was an afterthought sims my husband's like did they run this through Google translate to like do they have an actual Spanish Naggar. Who wrote that's what what when you actually looked at the market? What wasn't there so most of what you would find in terms of board books were translations thousands of American nursery rhymes or translations of American classics important books? Eric Carlyle Dr Seuss in Spanish right. But you couldn't couldn't find the witty wonderful issue rhymes that actually come from that culture which also matters because those things are written to rhyme in a way that helps you learned and some basics of language doesn't work in transliteration exit also so so that was my talent right because I if we can sing twinkle twinkle star in Spanish why why can't the American markets signals produce in English. Why can't Arner three rhymes be American classics? We're a part of this tapestry. Now so part of my challenge as a kid who grew up. Dr Seuss was let me take all of these wonderful nursery rhymes and interpret them in English. And I want American kids to sing thing little. Ticky squeaky wheel feel you know what I mean and understand these nursery rhymes and seeing them in English and this this way the Spanish will be closer took the culture will be closer to them because part of our responsibility as cultural ambassadors is to bring the cultures closer together whether it be through language anguish whether through pre culture are. It doesn't matter like if I have a little American kid singing in English a little Latin. Could we'll get excited. They we know it right. Even though it's an English familiar to them anyways I just wanted to make it easier for everybody. So how did you start. I didn't know exactly what this would look like. I knew it would be a brand. I knew it would celebrate all these adorable little characters. Start starring Little Ticky Pretty cute right But I didn't know how I was GONNA do it. However it just made sense to start with board bucks and I wanted the board books to be reversible and lift the flap so for someone who doesn't have a child aboard book book is a Board Book is a thick heavy book that a kid will not tear easily critical thing understand? We're on it. I will survive you you wanted. It's like Xuan ability imports. And here's here's another part this is. This is a book that has very few words. So if you're an artist it's it's low hanging fruit. It's a book that relies heavier on art that it does than it does on on Written prose so you can do a board book with one nursery tree rhyme so I was like oh my gosh. This is a series. It's mother goose for the for the Latino community but it I personally find bilingual. Books oftentimes sometimes cumbersome because it's two languages that they throw at you at on the same page and it's it's it's cumbersome and I wanted to do this. In a different format I wanted reversible board books because because with reversible board books you can read it in in Spanish in one language and when the kid goes again again okay again. Let's written English so you get to read to the child one on language at a time and you instilled them in the love for languages with the repetition and then they're able to appreciate things like phonics and music and early literacy excuses skills one at a time so I wanted to explore that new format which I've never seen done with books here in the United States and and I had it in my head like I gotta do this gotTa do this but of course life takes over right ahead. At the time I had two little kids I had a four year old and a two and a half year old and the two and a half year old was starting pre pre K.. Like two days a week two and a half days a week in a little playgroup in a church basement and she. He did not want to go to her group and she was throwing all kinds of temper tantrums and being the sucker that I was I decide. Okay I will leave. I'll sit here for four hours or at least maybe half an hour until you let me go and I was in a church basement with there was no internet so I couldn't read the news on my phone. Which is normally what I would have done so I grab some construction paper? And I started mapping out my little stickies book the first book that we did and when I saw how the format actually really worked and how I could lift the flap into peel and how I could make the create a wheel and make the the hen run to go get the the corn. I got really excited and that was just the START I hey. I had a fully illustrated book two weeks later because I got so excited. I just immediately start drawing illustrated and then after that I just started the next book. Okay now I'm GonNa do elephants now because one think I knew from my time as a creative is that you can talk all day long. But if you don't show people something they cannot imagine at the battles of so you know if you and if you can't do the due diligence of believing in yourself and fleshing out your idea yourself will then it's not their responsibility to like project act a made up vision of what you could do into the air so it is important that you just do it that you just you know you know. It's funny because oftentimes people will tell me. Well how did did you find the time to do it and Blah Blah and. I just think it's important to know that you will never find the time nobody ever finds time. You make the time if you really want to do something thank you just do it and everything else has followed since
