17
00:01:38.120 --> 00:01:42.400
I hope you're having a wonderful day. I'd like to welcome you to our

18
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:46.359
podcast today. As you can see, I'm doing the Glitter Granny deal.

19
00:01:47.719 --> 00:01:53.239
I will soon be doing affiliate marketing
at Amazon and we'll be selling books and

20
00:01:53.319 --> 00:01:59.719
products and there'll be a lot more
information to come about Glitter Granny gifts that'll

21
00:01:59.719 --> 00:02:04.120
be available for everyone. Now,
for my listeners, let me ask you

22
00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:09.080
a question. Have you ever met
a songwriter? Now? Would you like

23
00:02:09.159 --> 00:02:15.400
to meet one whose first song went
to number one Country Song of the Year

24
00:02:15.639 --> 00:02:22.120
in nineteen eighty three? Tell me
have you ever heard of this song Jose

25
00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:27.400
Guero? Well, if you've ever
been drinking tequila anywhere, I'm sure you've

26
00:02:27.479 --> 00:02:35.879
not only heard it, you probably
sang it. Can you imagine meeting someone

27
00:02:35.879 --> 00:02:40.599
who's written a song and now she's
done something else, She's written a historical

28
00:02:40.840 --> 00:02:46.199
fiction novel. Now it's your chance
to meet someone who is both a songwriter

29
00:02:46.719 --> 00:02:53.639
and a novelist. Have you ever
ever heard about a book entitled entitled Pearl.

30
00:02:53.280 --> 00:02:58.240
Well, it's one of those books
that I just read recently, and

31
00:02:58.919 --> 00:03:02.439
this is music to her. I
loved it so much I couldn't put it

32
00:03:02.479 --> 00:03:07.199
down, and I just plowed through
it in a day and a half.

33
00:03:08.360 --> 00:03:14.360
We'll be sharing that with you today. If you can answer yes or maybe

34
00:03:14.439 --> 00:03:16.560
to any of these questions that I've
asked you, then you're in the right

35
00:03:16.639 --> 00:03:23.120
place. And I'd like to welcome
you to January Jones sharing senior success stories.

36
00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:27.520
Now it's time relax, resk,
go, get some cheese, get

37
00:03:27.520 --> 00:03:31.400
some crackers for yourself, a glass
of wine, and let me tell you

38
00:03:31.479 --> 00:03:39.919
a little bit about my guest today. She wrote Jose Cuervo in nineteen eighty

39
00:03:40.960 --> 00:03:46.680
three and saw the power of music
firsthand. This was her first song she

40
00:03:46.759 --> 00:03:51.919
had ever written, and she's gonna
tell us how it came about. It

41
00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:55.039
became a honking talk anthem, and
it hit number one on the charts,

42
00:03:55.120 --> 00:04:00.879
and it was shun by Shelley West. In addition, Billboard magazine named it

43
00:04:01.000 --> 00:04:05.800
the number one Country song of the
year, and it earned her a Grammy

44
00:04:06.159 --> 00:04:12.439
nomination. Now, I'm very pleased
to introduce you all to Cindy Jordan.

45
00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:15.759
Hi, Cindy, how are you
today. I'm doing great, January,

46
00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:20.800
how are you? I'm wonderful and
I'm so happy to have you with us.

47
00:04:21.680 --> 00:04:26.480
I will share with our listeners that
we recently just met, maybe probably

48
00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:30.279
a month or month and a half
ago, and it was so exciting to

49
00:04:30.439 --> 00:04:35.160
read your book. Incredible. But
let's back up a little bit. Tell

50
00:04:35.240 --> 00:04:39.879
us what it was like when you
wrote that song. How did you write

51
00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:43.560
it? And give us a little
background on that. I was a cocktail

52
00:04:43.600 --> 00:04:48.959
waitress in the seventies and every night
about eleven o'clock, the bartenders we'd all

53
00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:55.839
have a shot of Hose Carvo tequila, kind of catch up with the rest

54
00:04:55.839 --> 00:05:00.279
of the crowd. There were baby
boomers partying right And I came home one

55
00:05:00.360 --> 00:05:05.000
night and saw my guitar sitting there, leaning on my couch and waiting for

56
00:05:05.040 --> 00:05:09.800
my boyfriend to show up, and
I wrote it about ten minutes. I'm

57
00:05:09.839 --> 00:05:15.079
a classically trained piano player, so
I love but I picked up the guitar

58
00:05:15.120 --> 00:05:19.600
when I was in Girl Scouts and
learned a few chords, and just I

59
00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:24.720
was listening to the song Sunday Morning
Coming Down by Chris Christopherson, and I

60
00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:32.600
just started its Sunday Morning and I
just talked about drinking too much tequila.

61
00:05:32.720 --> 00:05:38.199
I guess we all could have talked
about that during those years. And then

62
00:05:38.519 --> 00:05:44.199
were you amazed when it had such
an incredible launch and it became so popular

63
00:05:44.319 --> 00:05:47.199
so quickly. You know what's interesting
about it, January is I had my

64
00:05:47.399 --> 00:05:57.399
enlightening spiritual experience with tequila because I
totally ok. I totally understand the way

65
00:05:57.399 --> 00:06:00.920
the universe works, the way God
works. That's how I learned. Was.

66
00:06:01.920 --> 00:06:05.319
I had a day my record was
out in Los Angeles. I was

67
00:06:05.319 --> 00:06:11.839
a local celebrity there. I opened
for big Nashville acts in the Palomino Club

68
00:06:12.199 --> 00:06:16.040
in North Hollywood, and so my
record number was first and it was on

69
00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:23.079
Warner Brothers. But Nashville never promoted
it. So I had a day where

70
00:06:23.079 --> 00:06:26.639
I was so mad. Oh,
I was angry, and I had been

71
00:06:26.720 --> 00:06:33.560
raised Catholic and knock at the door, this is crap, this isn't true,

72
00:06:33.759 --> 00:06:39.079
none of that's true. I was
so praying and praying and praying,

73
00:06:40.120 --> 00:06:44.839
But here was the place when I
finally said, why don't you if you

74
00:06:45.240 --> 00:06:48.639
even? I was so angry.
I was like, you think solar systems

75
00:06:48.680 --> 00:06:58.160
are supposed to impress me? The
mountains and I said, this is a

76
00:06:58.240 --> 00:07:00.519
hit song and you know it,
so why don't you you do it?

77
00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:03.879
And within two years I had Song
of the Year with Shelley Singer. Oh

78
00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:10.240
yeah, a wonderful song. I
was hoping we could play, but we

79
00:07:10.240 --> 00:07:16.319
were talking earlier that there's something with
the copyright issues January. I'll just sing

80
00:07:16.360 --> 00:07:20.639
a little bit of it for you
a capella. You know that's fine,

81
00:07:21.720 --> 00:07:26.639
So it goes. It says it's
Sunday morning and the sun is shining in

82
00:07:26.680 --> 00:07:30.519
my eye that is open, and
my head is stinning. I was the

83
00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:34.240
life of the party and I can't
quit grinning. I had too much tequitla

84
00:07:34.360 --> 00:07:39.680
last night. And then the chorus
is oes quervo, you are a friend

85
00:07:39.720 --> 00:07:42.959
of mine. I'd like to drink
you with a little salt and lime.

86
00:07:43.040 --> 00:07:46.519
Did I kiss all the cowboys?
Did I shoot out the lights? Did

87
00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:49.399
I dance on the bar? Did
I start any fights? But here's what

88
00:07:49.519 --> 00:07:54.680
made it a hit. Now,
wait a minute, who's this sleeping beside

89
00:07:54.720 --> 00:08:03.639
me? Okay, I like this. Now wait a minute, things don't

90
00:08:03.720 --> 00:08:09.360
look too familiar. Who is this
cowboy who's sleeping beside me? He's awfully

91
00:08:09.519 --> 00:08:13.639
cute. But how did I get
his shirt on I had too much tequila

92
00:08:13.800 --> 00:08:18.439
last night. That was the line
that made it a hit. Oh I

93
00:08:18.560 --> 00:08:22.560
just got a royalty check yesterday.
So somebody's hearing it somewhere. It's probably

94
00:08:22.600 --> 00:08:28.040
I've been listening to it a lot. I'm not a big country Western fan,

95
00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:31.159
but I love your song and I've
heard it. I've been in so

96
00:08:31.320 --> 00:08:37.320
many tequila parts through the years that
it's just it's a it's an anthem in

97
00:08:37.440 --> 00:08:43.720
it. It's a honky tonk legend. Now, so you wrote this song

98
00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:48.120
and did it change your life?
What happened after you got it out there

99
00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:52.240
and it became soular? What happened
was it made me realize I'm a songwriter.

100
00:08:54.440 --> 00:08:58.799
Because what happened was is that what
else do you have? And I

101
00:08:58.879 --> 00:09:03.519
wasn't prepared for the music business in
that way even but I knew how big

102
00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:09.000
Jose Querbo was because of the way
people reacted to it and when I made

103
00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:13.000
it, I mean the first night
down there, that was the days when

104
00:09:13.559 --> 00:09:16.799
the phones had little buttons all over
it. It just lit up like a

105
00:09:16.879 --> 00:09:22.320
Christmas tree, and they had so
many requests on the Larry Scott Trucker's Show,

106
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:26.000
which was from midnight to six in
the morning, and it had a

107
00:09:26.039 --> 00:09:31.080
clear channel from Pennsylvania all the way
to Hawaii. So the truck were all

108
00:09:33.000 --> 00:09:35.320
requesting this song. They had to
play it like two three times a night.

109
00:09:37.000 --> 00:09:41.519
So I and but the path in
the journey that it took me on

110
00:09:43.639 --> 00:09:48.799
is pretty incredible because after that I
moved to Texas. I met a cowboy

111
00:09:50.039 --> 00:09:52.919
who took me to Texas. I
kind of lived out my song and we

112
00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:58.200
had a couple of babies, and
I'm thinking, Honkey talks. Singing wasn't

113
00:09:58.240 --> 00:10:03.840
really my dealing anymore. So I
started writing songs for children and started a

114
00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:11.200
little ministry called Kids for Kids because
right. And then when we moved to

115
00:10:11.320 --> 00:10:16.600
Nashville, I got a record deal
doing my ambient piano, which I did

116
00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:22.840
letds for Page Music, which they
wanted fresh compositions. And the way I

117
00:10:22.840 --> 00:10:26.799
started composing music was I would practice
and practice and practice my classical and then

118
00:10:26.840 --> 00:10:35.720
I just take off because I was
perfectionist, say more. Just so,

119
00:10:35.840 --> 00:10:41.679
then around two thousand and one,
I guess I had about five million downloads

120
00:10:41.679 --> 00:10:48.840
with my music. Oh my gosh, from all because my auve Mario went

121
00:10:48.919 --> 00:10:56.039
number one and on MP three dot
com. Uh for about four or five

122
00:10:56.120 --> 00:11:01.320
months. Oh wow, number one. People were just downloading my music all

123
00:11:01.320 --> 00:11:07.159
over the place. And even today
I still get messages from people about how

124
00:11:07.159 --> 00:11:13.879
they downloaded the music. And then
I got into research about the power of

125
00:11:13.960 --> 00:11:18.720
music and how it helps people,
and so I started a keynote speaking I

126
00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:24.039
went to Toastmasters, got my DTM
and started on the power of music.

127
00:11:24.120 --> 00:11:30.720
Because just for starters. The year
that Jose Quervo went number one, the

128
00:11:30.879 --> 00:11:35.240
Hubeline company, their sales went up
fourteen million cases. Oh my god.

129
00:11:35.799 --> 00:11:41.639
Yeah, So I'm learning and I'm
learning and I'm learning. And then I

130
00:11:41.720 --> 00:11:48.519
heard a story when I moved to
Texas, an incredible story about a nun

131
00:11:48.559 --> 00:11:56.399
in Spain who was cloistered and she
bilocated to the New World and there's a

132
00:11:56.480 --> 00:11:58.600
lot. They called her the Lady
in Blue. I had to tell this

133
00:12:00.360 --> 00:12:03.879
story, so that turned into a
ballet. But thank you. Yeah,

134
00:12:03.960 --> 00:12:09.480
we're going to take a break right
now. And someone else had a number

135
00:12:09.519 --> 00:12:13.159
one book at Amazon. If you're
a whiner or if you know a whiner,

136
00:12:13.519 --> 00:12:20.399
this is the perfect give to get
or give. Lately, there is

137
00:12:20.440 --> 00:12:26.639
a whining epidemic in our world.
People are even whining about whining Are you

138
00:12:26.799 --> 00:12:31.960
sick and tired of listening to everyone
whining all the time? So was January

139
00:12:31.080 --> 00:12:37.480

Not Whine The Eleventh Commandment that reached number

140

00:14:30.080 --> 00:14:33.960
know you're writing, uh, some
more books and tell us a little bit

160
00:14:35.080 --> 00:14:39.759
about the latest book, the one
I love so much that I couldn't put

161
00:14:39.799 --> 00:14:46.159
down, which is entitled Pearl,
and it's an interesting, fabulous story.

162
00:14:46.559 --> 00:14:52.519
Did this have any connection to Los
Angelo, where you live in Texas?

163
00:14:52.960 --> 00:14:56.559
Yes? In San Angelo? What
so? They they said at one time,

164
00:14:58.159 --> 00:15:01.200
if you were put a roof over
the town of San Angelo in Texas,

165
00:15:01.240 --> 00:15:07.279
it would be a giant brothel,
Okay, because what it was founded

166
00:15:07.320 --> 00:15:11.919
on, which is the Wild West, the brothels, the saloons and the

167
00:15:11.919 --> 00:15:15.320
gambling and the drinking. Right,
So that was the wild West and what

168
00:15:15.480 --> 00:15:20.720
they called it that And so I
was kind of I bought myself a saloon

169
00:15:20.759 --> 00:15:22.960
outfit and there was a place down
there called Miss Hatties, and I would

170
00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:33.440
do honkey to piano and I was
thinking about the girls there, and I

171
00:15:33.480 --> 00:15:39.360
thought, Okay, there's the fun. And here's the thing. January.

172
00:15:39.440 --> 00:15:45.120
We all of us women can relate
to this, all of us can we

173
00:15:45.279 --> 00:15:52.000
understand that in our soul about this
because we love to have fun. If

174
00:15:52.039 --> 00:15:56.559
our lovers are great, we love
that. We love to get a little

175
00:15:56.600 --> 00:16:00.759
buzz maybe on some wine. I
mean, we've all experienced kind of thing.

176
00:16:00.600 --> 00:16:06.720
These girls, these girls, most
of them in those days, didn't

177
00:16:07.240 --> 00:16:11.600
live to be over thirty. They
were Yeah, they were on lanium.

178
00:16:11.279 --> 00:16:15.159
It's the oldest profession in the world, that type of thing. And I

179
00:16:15.360 --> 00:16:23.559
started relating to those girls, just
understanding what that business was and how it

180
00:16:23.720 --> 00:16:30.480
was to be that business. And
I came across these two women in Chicago

181
00:16:32.240 --> 00:16:36.159
and I started doing it on them. And they were the Everly Sisters.

182
00:16:36.200 --> 00:16:44.559
They had the most famous bordello in
the world. But the interesting thing about

183
00:16:44.600 --> 00:16:48.639
that they made millions of dollars.
And this is in the early nineteen hundreds,

184
00:16:49.200 --> 00:16:55.399
but the doctors that would check them
every week told them. Don't have

185
00:16:55.600 --> 00:17:00.039
intercourse with your clients. And I
went to men, wait a minute,

186
00:17:00.440 --> 00:17:08.839
because of these which us that women, Uh, that's the thing that ore

187
00:17:10.119 --> 00:17:18.000
that turns into our responsibility, especially
the pregnancy. We're for that. And

188
00:17:18.640 --> 00:17:23.119
I know the stories that happen with
all that. So I thought, okay,

189
00:17:23.319 --> 00:17:27.920
wait a minute. Nope, no
intercourse, but pregnancy. And because

190
00:17:27.920 --> 00:17:33.359
of pregnancy and disease, the women
were taught to be ladies. They wore

191
00:17:33.400 --> 00:17:38.119
beautiful gowns, they had the finest
chefs, they had the best musicians,

192
00:17:40.920 --> 00:17:47.119
had etiquette lessons every day, and
this story, they were caught up on

193
00:17:47.319 --> 00:17:52.960
current events. So they were basically
defined. I would define them as beautiful

194
00:17:53.039 --> 00:18:00.240
women, high class, beautiful women
with a parlor of happy endings. Let's

195
00:18:00.279 --> 00:18:04.119
put it that way, okay.
And I thought, this is a really

196
00:18:04.160 --> 00:18:11.200
good message for our culture in our
girls today. Of what of the culture

197
00:18:11.240 --> 00:18:15.640
where it is right now and the
self esteem and young women is there's no

198
00:18:15.720 --> 00:18:18.759
respect. I mean, they've got
this whole booty call thing where they don't

199
00:18:18.759 --> 00:18:22.480
even ask you your name or let
alone a cup of coffee. You know.

200
00:18:22.599 --> 00:18:29.480
So I'm I'm thinking we have to
get back our power as women.

201
00:18:30.359 --> 00:18:36.759
And and this this sovereignty of who
we are, and to teach our young

202
00:18:36.839 --> 00:18:41.839
girls to hold them that sovereignty and
hold their power, because we all know

203
00:18:44.039 --> 00:18:48.160
that any of us, even in
our happy marriages, you know, sometimes

204
00:18:48.480 --> 00:18:55.480
I felt like I was a sleeping
pill. You know, sure, you

205
00:18:55.519 --> 00:19:00.400
know that's brings to mind, like
now we have the high cost, high

206
00:19:00.400 --> 00:19:07.119
class escort services which they talk about, which is kind of comes down from

207
00:19:07.200 --> 00:19:12.000
what you're talking about. And you
know, I think that women in the

208
00:19:12.039 --> 00:19:17.720
early part of this century, last
century were now into the next one.

209
00:19:18.839 --> 00:19:23.559
But they were just they didn't know
anything about sex, and it was something

210
00:19:23.640 --> 00:19:30.640
that was whispered and no one talked
about and you were technically not supposed to

211
00:19:30.759 --> 00:19:36.400
enjoy it. And I was raised
Catholic like you, and basically we were

212
00:19:36.440 --> 00:19:40.599
taught I say, they tried to
brainwash us but didn't work with us.

213
00:19:41.079 --> 00:19:47.720
But we were taught that sex was
only allowed or permissible to become impregnated.

214
00:19:48.640 --> 00:19:55.039
And so you see these women who
were having baby after baby after baby,

215
00:19:55.799 --> 00:20:02.319
and you can see how they were
very comfortable with telling their husbands maybe you

216
00:20:02.319 --> 00:20:11.200
should go somewhere else. Well,
not only that, but it was impolite

217
00:20:11.839 --> 00:20:17.440
to have intercourse with your wife if
she was pregnant. So you know,

218
00:20:18.039 --> 00:20:25.279
four guys would wait, you know, but we have Tod and in the

219
00:20:25.319 --> 00:20:27.640
book Pearl, and in the musical, which, by the way, the

220
00:20:27.759 --> 00:20:33.920
musical we performed it in Texas last
summer sold out every night, was standing

221
00:20:33.960 --> 00:20:41.559
over. Okay. Yeah, So
we're on course to go to Broadway and

222
00:20:41.839 --> 00:20:47.279
do the whole deal because it's a
powerful, powerful message. But there's one

223
00:20:47.440 --> 00:20:52.279
part. We have to understand ourselves
as human beings and understand ourselves as mammals

224
00:20:52.319 --> 00:21:00.559
and understand ourselves as just emotional beings. Right. And so Miss Pearl,

225
00:21:00.000 --> 00:21:07.319
she tells this young gal who comes
to her parlor. She says, the

226
00:21:07.359 --> 00:21:12.359
girl says, is sex bad,
Miss Pearl, because I'm getting these feelings.

227
00:21:12.519 --> 00:21:18.319
I'm getting these feelings and I can't
help it. I find myself looking

228
00:21:18.400 --> 00:21:25.279
at the back's parts of men,
and sometimes I look at the front and

229
00:21:23.880 --> 00:21:33.079
I'm a sinner. I'm gonna go
to hal Yeah, familiar in our generation,

230
00:21:33.279 --> 00:21:37.680
right, And Miss pearls, no, honey, how old are you?

231
00:21:37.720 --> 00:21:42.680
No, you're it's natural. She
says, how many times can a

232
00:21:42.720 --> 00:21:49.039
woman give birth in nine months?
Once? How many times can a man

233
00:21:49.200 --> 00:21:55.880
father a child in nine months?
Hundreds. So we're wired that way,

234
00:21:56.880 --> 00:22:04.079
wired as mammals, just plain old
mammals, right, that's yeah. But

235
00:22:04.200 --> 00:22:11.200
the danger of men wandering to these
bordellos or parlors these because they would check

236
00:22:11.279 --> 00:22:17.279
their wives, yes, right,
and that good. Yeah, Well,

237
00:22:17.319 --> 00:22:23.279
you know I'm gonna promote. I
wrote several books on the Kennedys, and

238
00:22:23.519 --> 00:22:30.839
actually missus Kennedy was a classic example
of what women were going through. I

239
00:22:30.920 --> 00:22:37.519
believe she had nine children right in
a row, and I think at some

240
00:22:37.680 --> 00:22:41.200
point she was just closed the bedroom
door and she was out of business.

241
00:22:41.720 --> 00:22:48.279
And so then her husband was flagrantly
having affairs, bringing women home with him,

242
00:22:48.920 --> 00:22:52.880
and she went along with it.
And I'm sure a lot of women

243
00:22:53.079 --> 00:22:57.839
in that era just went along with
it because they were glad to not have

244
00:22:57.920 --> 00:23:03.519
to worry about being pregnant all the
time. Isn't that true? I think

245
00:23:03.559 --> 00:23:07.880
so. Also, another line that
Miss Pearl says is we call it a

246
00:23:07.960 --> 00:23:14.839
business, you call it your wifely
duty when the church ladies, and so,

247
00:23:14.920 --> 00:23:18.559
the whole thing, and then there's
this wonderful song that I wrote when

248
00:23:18.599 --> 00:23:25.519
I was doing The whole book was
heavily heavily researched, heavily and the first

249
00:23:25.559 --> 00:23:30.079
part is about Victoria Pearl's backstory and
the Everlace sisters and how does she learned

250
00:23:30.119 --> 00:23:34.519
the trade. And then we go
into ten different stories with ten different girls

251
00:23:34.519 --> 00:23:38.440
and how they end up at Miss
Pearl's parlor. And then the third part

252
00:23:38.640 --> 00:23:44.119
is life at Miss Pearl's parlor.
So you hear that the you know,

253
00:23:44.160 --> 00:23:48.519
these little girls, they didn't want
to be They didn't want to grow up

254
00:23:48.519 --> 00:23:53.200
to be prostitutes, you know.
And in the more recently, even since

255
00:23:53.240 --> 00:23:57.279
this, I think it maybe started
in the seventies where it really started getting

256
00:23:57.559 --> 00:24:03.039
pick in momentum where women started being
more independent and not dependent on men.

257
00:24:03.079 --> 00:24:07.680
But before that you had to have
a husband or a daddy, or family

258
00:24:07.880 --> 00:24:15.079
or sons to survive. For sure. You know, we're going to take

259
00:24:15.079 --> 00:24:19.440
a break right now, and if
you'd like to hear a little bit about

260
00:24:19.480 --> 00:24:26.839
who I think killed Kennedy, listen
to this I do. Let me ask

261
00:24:26.880 --> 00:24:33.400
you a question, are you still
wondering who killed Kennedy? Over fifty years

262
00:24:33.480 --> 00:24:37.240
later? The assassination is still a
mystery. It is unfinished business for our

263
00:24:37.279 --> 00:24:42.000
country. Now get ready for a
theory that you've never heard before but will

264
00:24:42.039 --> 00:24:47.160
make more sense than any other.
Conspiracy theory that you've ever heard in the

265
00:24:47.200 --> 00:24:53.240
past. January Jones speaks the unspeakable
in her book Jackie, Ari and Jack

266
00:24:53.559 --> 00:25:00.599
the tragic love triangle connecting Jackie and
Aristot alone ass romantically prior to JFK's assassination.

267
00:25:02.319 --> 00:25:06.039
Did you know that Ari was Jackie's
guest in the White House during the

268
00:25:06.119 --> 00:25:10.640
JFK funeral. He was the only
non family member who was invited by Jackie

269
00:25:10.720 --> 00:25:15.400
to stay there during the funeral.
Aristontalnass was one of the wealthiest men in

270
00:25:15.440 --> 00:25:18.240
the world, with the means,
the motive, and the money to order

271
00:25:18.279 --> 00:25:23.519
an assassination that was the perfect crime
of the last century. Are needed class

272
00:25:23.880 --> 00:25:30.240
and Jackie needed cash. They were
perfect for each other. Now what is

273
00:25:30.319 --> 00:25:36.519
Camelot? It is but another tragic
love triangle. Jackie, Ari and Jack

274
00:25:36.880 --> 00:25:42.160
is available at January Jones dot com, Amazon dot com and audiobooks dot Com.

275
00:25:42.200 --> 00:25:52.920
Read by mis Jones. Welcome back. We're here with Cynthia Jordan and

276
00:25:52.960 --> 00:25:59.559
she's sharing with us some stories about
the city of San Angelo's and it's in

277
00:25:59.759 --> 00:26:06.880
tech and her book is really totally
researched and it is truly like just reading

278
00:26:07.000 --> 00:26:14.359
a piece of history. The photos
are incredible that she would have source for

279
00:26:14.440 --> 00:26:18.279
the book. I love those.
And then they had they call it the

280
00:26:18.319 --> 00:26:25.920
Santa Rita Number one, which was
the oil boom that happened in nineteen twenty

281
00:26:25.960 --> 00:26:30.240
three and that really affected that area, didn't it. Oh yeah, it's

282
00:26:30.440 --> 00:26:37.000
the reason. Well that oil discovery
is one of the reasons that Allies never

283
00:26:37.119 --> 00:26:41.720
ran out of fuel during World War
Two. Just starting there, there's MD

284
00:26:41.920 --> 00:26:45.400
Anderson, there's all kinds of cancer
research, all kinds of medical facilities.

285
00:26:45.960 --> 00:26:52.000
Because the state of Texas they thought
that was baron land and they said,

286
00:26:52.000 --> 00:26:56.880
well, if anything shows up in
West Texas, UT, which is in

287
00:26:56.000 --> 00:27:03.519
Austin, and College A and M
would get royalties. And so when you

288
00:27:03.599 --> 00:27:07.279
see all of the graduates and all
of the work and all of the amazing

289
00:27:07.359 --> 00:27:15.119
things that have come out of those
two educational places, Santa Rita they got

290
00:27:15.400 --> 00:27:19.119
those are every time you see those
pumps in West Texas, that's ch chain

291
00:27:19.519 --> 00:27:26.039
to change. Yeah. We just
recently did a show with one of our

292
00:27:26.119 --> 00:27:33.400
guests who wrote about the Osage Indians
and that was the movie that's nominated for

293
00:27:33.440 --> 00:27:41.240
an Oscar and that the oil just
was such a event because they gave them

294
00:27:41.319 --> 00:27:47.839
land that no one wanted, and
then all of a sudden they became the

295
00:27:47.920 --> 00:27:52.000
wealthiest people, some of the wealthiest
people in the world. He told us

296
00:27:52.039 --> 00:27:59.160
this one story about the they would
buy a Pierce arrow and they were never

297
00:27:59.319 --> 00:28:03.079
told about refueling, putting gasoline in
it, so they would just drive it

298
00:28:03.200 --> 00:28:07.279
until it ran out of gas and
then just leave it alongside the road.

299
00:28:10.880 --> 00:28:15.759
There's so many stories like that.
And so now your your play is hitting.

300
00:28:15.880 --> 00:28:18.759
Did you write the music for your
playing? Ver your musical? How

301
00:28:18.799 --> 00:28:22.960
did that come about? Get all
of it and you can listen to the

302
00:28:23.039 --> 00:28:30.079
music on the website or just go
to Pearlthebook dot com. In the book

303
00:28:30.200 --> 00:28:36.440
is the script, So Pearl the
Book and there's a lot of photos.

304
00:28:36.480 --> 00:28:41.720
There's sound clips from the you know, soundbites from the musical and all the

305
00:28:41.799 --> 00:28:45.960
music. You know. One thing
I'll bring up for all of you lady

306
00:28:47.039 --> 00:28:51.519
seniors was in my research one time
I was looking through it and I went,

307
00:28:51.759 --> 00:28:55.680
you've gotta be kidding me. I
had to write about it. I

308
00:28:55.799 --> 00:29:02.400
just had to write about it.
And it was about doctor Mortimer in England.

309
00:29:02.640 --> 00:29:07.599
And so in the old days,
like you said, women men were

310
00:29:07.599 --> 00:29:11.559
not educated. It's not their fault
you know, women a lot of times

311
00:29:11.599 --> 00:29:15.960
will fake orgasms and so the men
think they're doing it right, and it's

312
00:29:15.000 --> 00:29:19.720
not their fault. I mean,
just were never really educated. And so

313
00:29:19.799 --> 00:29:25.039
what would happen was when women were
having probably PMS, which and you know

314
00:29:25.079 --> 00:29:30.119
we all know what that is,
sure, then they would go to the

315
00:29:30.200 --> 00:29:34.960
doctor and the doctor would massage them
to have an orgasm. And that was

316
00:29:36.000 --> 00:29:40.319
a treatment. It was called yeah, it was called for female hysteria.

317
00:29:40.839 --> 00:29:44.799
Well, you know some of these
women it all female historian and they had

318
00:29:44.880 --> 00:29:49.200
posters. Look it up. You'll
see these posters with these doctors advertising,

319
00:29:49.440 --> 00:29:56.000
right, oh yeah, And so
I said, I've got to write about

320
00:29:56.000 --> 00:30:00.400
this. And so you know,
some we just like this. These poor

321
00:30:00.440 --> 00:30:04.119
doctors were sitting there for like forty
five minutes an hour and you know whatever.

322
00:30:04.759 --> 00:30:15.000
And so the doctor and doctor Mortimer
and invented the vibrator and and so

323
00:30:15.119 --> 00:30:21.680
what happened was and he was in
that same practice, right, and so

324
00:30:22.400 --> 00:30:33.039
it was zoop. Yes, yes, but I was never talked about in

325
00:30:33.079 --> 00:30:37.200
my company or any of that tea
and they would say, oh, you

326
00:30:37.240 --> 00:30:42.160
really need to go to this doctor. He has a yeah, because they

327
00:30:42.200 --> 00:30:45.880
didn't know what all that was you
know, it was all about the men,

328
00:30:47.000 --> 00:30:51.359
the men, the men, you
know my mother about you know,

329
00:30:51.480 --> 00:30:56.759
about how to how to satisfy a
woman and so so that's all in the

330
00:30:56.839 --> 00:31:04.440
play and the music goal and the
book it talks that. That's amazing.

331
00:31:04.559 --> 00:31:14.119
I think doctor Mortimore he should be
given an award, I mean, and

332
00:31:14.119 --> 00:31:19.680
and he right, and so in
our day it was yeah, so I

333
00:31:19.920 --> 00:31:22.680
you want to hear a funny story. I worked at the Guild Drug and

334
00:31:22.720 --> 00:31:27.559
they had these things that looked like
a cone, you know, and they

335
00:31:27.599 --> 00:31:33.400
showed this woman massage in her face, right, and I thought that's cool.

336
00:31:33.440 --> 00:31:47.319
I bought one from my mother for
Christmas. I just thought it looked

337
00:31:47.319 --> 00:31:51.759
cool. Well, we've come a
long way. We've come a long way.

338
00:31:52.240 --> 00:31:57.400
But you know, I think it's
an important subject to open dialogue,

339
00:31:57.480 --> 00:32:02.000
especially between women and this especially young
girls, how to hold your sovereignty,

340
00:32:02.599 --> 00:32:08.039
how to demand respect, which is
what the Everlays did, and such a

341
00:32:08.079 --> 00:32:14.920
strong powerful message for women because we
really do, you know, we do

342
00:32:14.960 --> 00:32:16.519
what we want, We do what
we feel like we have to do to

343
00:32:16.599 --> 00:32:22.079
keep peace in the house, and
we don't worry about ourselves as much.

344
00:32:22.680 --> 00:32:25.559
I mean most women. Now,
of course we've known the others. But

345
00:32:25.720 --> 00:32:30.680
you know, but we're always just
trying to keep things. You know now,

346
00:32:30.680 --> 00:32:35.640
well, you know if you look
back at it, and you know

347
00:32:36.000 --> 00:32:40.559
truly that no woman, as you
said earlier, would choose to be a

348
00:32:40.640 --> 00:32:45.839
lady of the evening or a prostitute
or to service men. But most of

349
00:32:45.880 --> 00:32:52.240
them are there, were there because
they had tragedies that happened in their life.

350
00:32:52.279 --> 00:32:57.559
Like some of these gals in your
book you wrote about they were widows,

351
00:32:57.599 --> 00:33:00.960
some widows with children, some were
a band by their husbands, Some

352
00:33:01.400 --> 00:33:07.559
basically were thrown out by their families
and they were just left. They were

353
00:33:07.599 --> 00:33:12.680
on their own. And what I
loved about the book particularly is you kind

354
00:33:12.759 --> 00:33:19.039
of weaved. They became a family
of sorts. It was a sisterhood,

355
00:33:19.640 --> 00:33:23.160
and they were all there to support
each other and help each other get through.

356
00:33:23.720 --> 00:33:30.039
And then you share that some of
them eventually married people that they had

357
00:33:30.880 --> 00:33:37.920
previously worked for I guess, and
they found romance. And what a fabulous

358
00:33:37.960 --> 00:33:45.720
way to show the strength of women. Oh, absolutely, to hold the

359
00:33:45.839 --> 00:33:50.599
power. We always have held the
power. And you know, we've been

360
00:33:50.640 --> 00:33:58.599
accused of being Harlot's temptresses, being
blamed for what's natural for a man,

361
00:33:59.000 --> 00:34:05.240
you know, because there's been this
kind of sin thing put on it or

362
00:34:05.400 --> 00:34:07.199
dirty you know, sex is bad
kind of thing, and it's not.

363
00:34:07.280 --> 00:34:12.280
It's a very very natural, natural
thing. But at the same time,

364
00:34:13.199 --> 00:34:17.199
it's beautiful when you're in love and
you're cared for, it's just beautiful.

365
00:34:17.679 --> 00:34:23.079
But if you're still used, which
we've all probably experienced it in one way

366
00:34:23.159 --> 00:34:27.800
or another at some point, you
know, it's not the same. I

367
00:34:27.800 --> 00:34:31.280
mean, it's not the same.
So this is really about The book is

368
00:34:31.320 --> 00:34:40.239
about falling in love and making love
and loving women and no judgment with women.

369
00:34:40.280 --> 00:34:44.519
And like you said, the Sisterhood, these girls all took care of

370
00:34:44.559 --> 00:34:50.880
each other. And in fact,
the Everlay Sisters they promote they would want

371
00:34:50.920 --> 00:34:54.800
their girls to get married. The
wealthy men, the Everly Sisters. You

372
00:34:54.800 --> 00:35:01.039
had to be wealthy. You cannot
be disrespectful. It was an elite group

373
00:35:01.119 --> 00:35:07.000
of men that were allowed into the
Everlay House. But especially that you could

374
00:35:07.039 --> 00:35:10.000
not be disrespectful. If you ever
were not a gentleman, you were never

375
00:35:10.039 --> 00:35:15.320
invited back. You could, no
matter how much money you had. I

376
00:35:15.480 --> 00:35:20.960
loved that about them. Yes,
oh that's amazing. You know. Right

377
00:35:21.000 --> 00:35:25.199
now, I'm going to share two
of my books about priceless personalities. These

378

Welcome back with another Priceless Personality that we're

405
00:37:54.239 --> 00:38:00.719
sharing today, Sundy. Let's talk
a little bit about our senior success stories,

406
00:38:01.000 --> 00:38:06.960
yours and a little bit of mine. I wrote my first book thirty

407
00:38:07.039 --> 00:38:13.119
years ago, and I was fifty
years old, so everyone knows how old

408
00:38:13.159 --> 00:38:16.559
I am, and I'm celebrating it. And my message, and I'm sure

409
00:38:16.599 --> 00:38:22.199
your message will follow up, is
that it's never You're never too old.

410
00:38:22.760 --> 00:38:27.239
And if you don't, just sit
down and do it, because everyone talks,

411
00:38:27.280 --> 00:38:30.119
talk talks, but you have to
do it. How old may I

412
00:38:30.159 --> 00:38:34.639
ask were you when you publish your
Well, we know your song, you

413
00:38:34.719 --> 00:38:37.800
were very young, but as far
as your books and your ballet, how

414
00:38:37.880 --> 00:38:43.960
old were you when you started those
projects? Probably I was in my sixties

415
00:38:44.360 --> 00:38:47.800
when I started them. No,
late fifties, I guess. My next

416
00:38:49.679 --> 00:38:52.159
I hit the seven, I mean
the seventh, my seventh decade, on

417
00:38:52.239 --> 00:38:59.519
my next birthday in May. And
honestly, I feel like I'm just getting

418
00:38:59.599 --> 00:39:06.400
started again because I'm writing a new
musical about here in Florida. Uh yeah,

419
00:39:06.760 --> 00:39:13.239
and yeah, it's about being here
in Sarasota. It's about a spiritual

420
00:39:13.280 --> 00:39:17.400
awakening. But it's going to be
fun and funny because I'm an entertainer at

421
00:39:17.400 --> 00:39:23.159
heart, which means we have fun
and laugh as well. And so I'm

422
00:39:23.159 --> 00:39:28.320
writing a new musical, the other
one, Pearl. We've got a lot

423
00:39:28.360 --> 00:39:31.599
of interest in different theaters and Texas
that are ready to take off with that.

424
00:39:32.360 --> 00:39:38.199
Okay, but I think it's important. I love how you've done to

425
00:39:38.280 --> 00:39:45.760
these stories. You know, Americans
love love love the story of a challenge,

426
00:39:45.280 --> 00:39:50.440
oh for sure, the story of
overcoming a challenge, the story of

427
00:39:50.440 --> 00:39:53.760
the underdog who makes it that,
you know. So I love your idea

428
00:39:53.840 --> 00:40:00.440
for your book and what you're doing
there because and the whole whine thing,

429
00:40:00.559 --> 00:40:05.400
because how many people do you hear
that are in their sixties. I hear

430
00:40:05.440 --> 00:40:08.440
people all the time or even in
their thirties and forties. Sometimes I'm getting

431
00:40:08.559 --> 00:40:13.679
old, and I always say,
I'm glad I'm not getting old, you

432
00:40:13.719 --> 00:40:19.840
know what? The heck and the
whiny thing they can't move as limber as

433
00:40:19.880 --> 00:40:25.559
they used to do, or things
happening. But honestly, January, we

434
00:40:25.679 --> 00:40:31.880
are programmed in this culture because there
are cultures that thrive and are healthy and

435
00:40:32.320 --> 00:40:38.719
in their eighties and nineties and live
past one hundred look like they're in their

436
00:40:38.760 --> 00:40:44.880
sixties. They're kind of in the
Polynesian low stress areas of our planet,

437
00:40:45.400 --> 00:40:50.519
right, yes, aka, you
know, I mean there's different places where

438
00:40:51.199 --> 00:41:00.760
there's yeah, and and people in
so many societies they've come to honor their

439
00:41:00.840 --> 00:41:05.800
elders, which is you know that
we've taught that from honor your mother and

440
00:41:05.880 --> 00:41:10.480
honor your father. But people got
into this thing where youth youth youth.

441
00:41:12.039 --> 00:41:15.760
Well, you know, it's wonderful
when you're young, but as you get

442
00:41:15.840 --> 00:41:21.440
older, well, you know,
the baby boomers still are booming. Look

443
00:41:21.440 --> 00:41:25.679
at what's on television. Look what
they're advertising now, right, it was

444
00:41:25.760 --> 00:41:31.159
Buster Browns and diapers, and then
when we were teenagers, it was a

445
00:41:31.320 --> 00:41:38.199
Yardly perfume, you know, I
mean Donovan commercial. You know we had

446
00:41:38.639 --> 00:41:45.960
so they follow us because we're the
ones that have the money. People now

447
00:41:45.039 --> 00:41:51.159
are living with their parents, they're
you know, uh, waiting for them

448
00:41:51.199 --> 00:41:55.400
to pass so they can just slip
in there. So we have a funny

449
00:41:57.800 --> 00:42:04.519
thing that's happening with our society.
And communication is so so important, and

450
00:42:04.519 --> 00:42:09.079
everybody's on their phone, you know
that. You know. So I love

451
00:42:09.199 --> 00:42:14.800
what you're doing here, and I
think it's important that sometimes that we look

452
00:42:14.880 --> 00:42:17.840
back and say what we love about
life, what we've loved about life,

453
00:42:17.920 --> 00:42:24.000
and one on one communication, like
when we have lunches with your friends,

454
00:42:24.039 --> 00:42:30.840
when you meet with different people and
you have discussions, especially women. Yeah,

455
00:42:31.039 --> 00:42:37.119
That's why I'm going in this direction
of the glitter granny, because I

456
00:42:37.119 --> 00:42:43.599
think that's my market because I'm in
that age group and you see so many

457
00:42:43.639 --> 00:42:47.679
people who are grandparents. It doesn't
just have to be women, but they

458
00:42:47.800 --> 00:42:53.760
are at a stage of their life
where they have enough money. You know,

459
00:42:53.840 --> 00:42:59.599
they're not out trying to make a
box to survive. And they all

460
00:42:59.639 --> 00:43:02.159
have a lot of extra income.
And guess what they like spending it on.

461
00:43:02.360 --> 00:43:10.440
They like spending it on their grandkids
or are themselves kids. Yeah,

462
00:43:10.519 --> 00:43:14.440
like what you said, it's more
fun because we already got our stuff,

463
00:43:14.639 --> 00:43:16.840
you know. Yeah, yeah,
yeah. Let me just before we go,

464
00:43:16.880 --> 00:43:21.079
I want to hear what is your
writing style? Do you write?

465
00:43:21.119 --> 00:43:24.119
Are you a morning writer or are
you an evening writer? Uh? Because

466
00:43:24.440 --> 00:43:28.320
I think that tells me a lot
about you as a writer. When do

467
00:43:28.360 --> 00:43:36.639
you write? I write when i'm
inspired, and I have learned how to

468
00:43:36.760 --> 00:43:40.920
just shut the door and you'll probably
find me in the same pajamas for three

469
00:43:42.000 --> 00:43:49.039
days. I pop out to eat
and whatever. But the books that I

470
00:43:49.119 --> 00:43:52.360
write, the songs that I write, I've learned. I know this might

471
00:43:52.400 --> 00:43:53.840
sound a little strange, but not
to you, because you're a writer.

472
00:43:54.559 --> 00:44:00.079
It's it's almost like you get a
there's like a portal that opens. And

473
00:44:00.159 --> 00:44:05.480
in fact, when I wrote my
book Ruby, when you understand that,

474
00:44:06.760 --> 00:44:09.119
it's really hard to understand. When
you understand that all things are happening at

475
00:44:09.119 --> 00:44:14.719
the same time. It's Einstein said, there's no such thing as time,

476
00:44:14.960 --> 00:44:20.239
right, So we understand linear time. We understand. So I just kind

477
00:44:20.239 --> 00:44:22.039
of said, you know what,
this book's already written, and I would

478
00:44:22.079 --> 00:44:27.519
sit down and I had a focus
on Wyater. I thought he was just,

479
00:44:28.320 --> 00:44:36.599
you know, a wonderful, strong
verbal and Ruby was created like that.

480
00:44:36.960 --> 00:44:40.199
I didn't write it. It just
kept flowing through, but so did

481
00:44:40.239 --> 00:44:44.639
Pearl, and so did Diamond.
I didn't write an out. Well,

482
00:44:44.679 --> 00:44:49.519
so let's share with our listeners that
this is h Sinny calls us the Gem

483
00:44:49.639 --> 00:44:54.599
series, Right, so you're starting
off with Pearl, Ruby, and how

484
00:44:54.599 --> 00:44:59.800
many Gems are you going to write
about down the road? Well, I've

485
00:44:59.840 --> 00:45:05.719
got so right now, there's Pearl
and then Diamond is the sequel, and

486
00:45:05.760 --> 00:45:10.360
it talks about what happens to all
those girls. And on my hometown,

487
00:45:10.360 --> 00:45:15.519
which was Redondo Beach, California,
where my dad was born at Universal Studios,

488
00:45:16.079 --> 00:45:22.239
and though I grew up in that
Hollywood crew was fifteen miles from us,

489
00:45:22.320 --> 00:45:30.760
and so it tried about the New
York Broadway coming to the California and

490
00:45:30.920 --> 00:45:36.159
Hollywood to do the movies. But
that's what that's based on. And then

491
00:45:36.440 --> 00:45:38.280
one of Pearl's girls, of course, becomes a famous star. And then

492
00:45:38.360 --> 00:45:45.079
Ruby is you meet Ruby and Diamond, but she is friends with Wyatt erb

493
00:45:45.199 --> 00:45:51.639
and his wife Josephine. So and
that's researched, you know, the whole

494
00:45:52.760 --> 00:45:57.599
Okay Corral and all of that.
So it's fabulous, wonderful, a lot

495
00:45:57.639 --> 00:46:02.079
of insight to the wild West and
how things were run in our distral.

496
00:46:02.800 --> 00:46:07.159
You've got quite a few things on
your drawing board. All of them have

497
00:46:07.320 --> 00:46:14.719
the underlying theme of the power of
women, women's women's issues and what our

498
00:46:14.760 --> 00:46:20.239
true power is. Right, thank
you so much for visiting with us and

499
00:46:20.360 --> 00:46:25.800
sharing your stories, your senior success
story. And I loved having you with

500
00:46:25.920 --> 00:46:30.639
us, and I hope our dear
listeners have enjoyed our time together today.

501
00:46:30.800 --> 00:46:36.880
We tried to be informative and inspiring
informative. Oh my gosh, we learned

502
00:46:36.920 --> 00:46:39.719
about so much today that some of
you may never have heard of before.

503
00:46:40.760 --> 00:46:50.880
Eyes We'll be back next Tuesday Live
at three pm, and my upcoming guests

504
00:46:50.960 --> 00:46:54.800
will all be eclectic, exciting and
energizing, just like Cindy West Today.

505
00:46:55.519 --> 00:47:00.280
My eighty year old thought for the
day is that you must be very,

506
00:47:00.559 --> 00:47:07.239
very very nice to your children,
because they're the ones who're going to decide

507
00:47:07.280 --> 00:47:14.000
which retirement home you go to.
Thank you for entering the no wine zone

508
00:47:14.039 --> 00:47:16.840
with us today, and share our
stories in our show with everyone you know.

509
00:47:17.679 --> 00:47:23.639
Remember it's time to stop whining and
then start smiling. And if that

510
00:47:23.719 --> 00:47:29.679
doesn't work, then you can just
start eating chocolate, lots and lots of

511
00:47:29.800 --> 00:47:35.400
chocolate and maybe have a glass of
wine too. Thank you, Cindy,

512
00:47:35.599 --> 00:47:39.559
and I can't wait to have you
back when Ruby's done. And I just

wonderful projects. You're at such an exciting

00:48:00.880 --> 00:48:06.039
better and better. We'll schedule that
