• 3:19
  Speaker 1: broadly looking, let's get straight to it, because I've never
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: on money making conversation had desserts and on my desk okay,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: And the twentie year anniversary of you, I got a
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: PCN pie that I made this morning, straight out of
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: your book, okay. And then I a peach collar I
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: reworked at rashaan Stock because I like peach cobblers in
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: that pie shape. But you do your peach cob like
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: eight inch square pan, put them peaches in there, then
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: you laid some dough down. Did you put the more
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: peaches than that? Did you put that dough on the top,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: put a little ground sentiment on top? Whoa, you're doing it?
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: You're talking about go ahead? Or you doing that? Any
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: kind of pop pan or whatever he's col comes out
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: to say, but your recipes, Patty, which is let's talk
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: about this. You know, I go through the book and
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: it's it's it's more than just desert by the way, everybody,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: I just happened to do desserts. You know, you got
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: anywhere from Patty's say the salad that pass it old
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: pass it own pot rolls and all these different things,
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: but there's a lot of easy recipes. Let's go back
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: for a minute twenty years ago. This is the twenty
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: anniversary of this book. Why we release it now because
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: it's worthy. Twenty years ago it was it was a
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: great book. People learned to cook from this book. And
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: so after twenty years I figured out would add some
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: new recipes, some new photos of my little grand babies
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: who are not here back in the day and twenty
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: years ago, they're here now. And it's just one delotment.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: The new recipes are great, but people love to see
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: me at the airport and say, Patty, I followed your
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: macaroni and cheese recipe and it came out perfectly. So
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: if you follow the book, you'll learn how to cook, okay,
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: And if you don't know how to cook, get the book.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: But that that's what I that's why I did what
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: I did, just wanted on the show because a lot
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: of people are intimidated by the cooking process. They can
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: go in the kitchen and just shut down and and
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: and sometimes you get some cookbooks they can't look complicated.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: But your book stories and they talk about the process
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: of putting together easy to follow cookbook. Well it's been
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: in my life. Uh. My mother and father they cooked
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: every day of their lives when they were married, you know,
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: before they divorced. They still cook solo. And I watched
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: them both cook great recipes and food and that when
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: I began to cook, I took their recipes and enhance
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: them with a few other spices and different things that
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: I wanted and that recipe and it's been great. And
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: I would always say to people when they want to say, Patty,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: how do you make this? I always say, don't use
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: a measuring cup. It's soul drops that you use when
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: you cook. No teaspoons, table spoons. Just dump it in
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: and feel it. And then UH say, I'm gonna add this,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: but I'm not gonna add a tablespoonful. And the measuring
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: cup gets in the way of greatness. I think, well,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna just tell you this. I'm starting to get there, Patty,
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: I'm not there yet. Now Now on the food. Now
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: on beans, and if they beans, that's how I cook.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: I can't tell you I'm a salt. I put in
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: some black eyed peas or red beans or pinto beans.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: I just do that whole thing. I throw some hall
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: opinions in there, I can tell you eight hallow beans
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: chapter I just do that by field. Now on the
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: baking side, I kind of stay strictly to the recipe
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: for fear factor, because you can go off a little bit.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: I would say that, would you agree, you could go
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: off a little and stuff. But with the bait items,
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: you have to stay a little close to the recipe. Yes,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: you're right, right, And so you bake that beautiful peace cop.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: It's finally here, the season of celebration. And no matter
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: how you celebrate with family and friends, whether you're preparing

  Speaker 1: the AD Council. Well, I would just tell you something.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: This is how you help me Because I'm a big
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: fan of the corn pies, and like you, I watched
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: my mom in the kitchen, and when I started making,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: really about eight years ago that started baking Patty and
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: Steve Harvey pranked me on our talk show and that's
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: how he didn't think I could bake a cake, and
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: I wind up baking three. And I've been baking every
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: since and having a lot of fun in it. And
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: so I had always struggled with how to do beacon
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: posts because what I was doing wrong until I read
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: your book, and this is on the story. I would
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: always you know, you get the Carrol serve because you
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: usually like Carrol serve, and then uh, and I would
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: put use three eggs and another extract, and you put
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: it all together, and I would I would mix my
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: beacons in with that and stir it up, and so
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: and so and so. But your book, but it would
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: always never float to the top, you know, because you
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: see pictures of beacon posts, the becomes are always at
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: the top, looking great and shining. I could never get that.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: And then I read your book, and your book says Rashan, Well,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: I'm just speaking about Rashan. It says put the beacons
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: a cup and a half of the cons on the base.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: Then you or your your syrup on top of that,
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: and the becomes would float to the top. Even the
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: old schooler like me learn something from this book. I
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: want you to tell you thank you, because I did
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: not know that you know what I have to say
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: to the Sean people love my sweepertator pie and my
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: pecom pie whatever. Always say that your mother and grandmother
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: probably makes a better one the mind. Mine is only
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: from my way of cooking, but it's not the best
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: in the world, that's for sure. So just use your
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: mind when you make your pecom pie. Yes, I used
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: my mind, but I needed your help. Because finally, my
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: bcome pie looks like the pie I grew up looking,
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: So you may not be my mom may not made
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: it look, but at least it looks like my mom
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: made So I'm happy with that. Now. One of the
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: expectations of this book going out. I know you. I
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: know you're telling the world about your book pad Labelle's

  Speaker 1: get a lot of hugs. Would really shut a lot

• 12:23
  Speaker 1: This is the story I want to tell when I'm
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: on stage. Before me, when I'm on stage, I could
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: do fifty shows in a row. Every show will be different.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: I've never seen that some the same way twice. I
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: never feel the audience the same way that I did
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: last night. The audience is different tonight, and I'll feel
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: certain things in the audience, and I'll talk to people,
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: and I get such a great uh reaction from from
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: my audiences. They're always like ready to cry, ready to laugh,
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: ready to for them to stand up and tell the truth.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: And I stand on stage if my eyelast comes off,
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: of course you want to know it. If my she breaks,
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna stop the show and said another pup of pumps.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: I'm never afraid to be me on stage and being
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: shooting all problem. All that stuff, honey, is not me.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: I'm just a regular around the way girl. Every year,

• 15:38
  Speaker 1: Little things like that happens. They happen, naturally, they happen.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: But don't be a shame and afraid to say, oh,
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: I just broke my pump on my stock and just
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: gotta run and say I've been doing all my six
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: years of singing on stage leasing myself. Wait when we're
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: releasing yourself in a great way. Because here I am
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: watching TV last day. I'm just gonna tell you the truth,
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: pat And watch the TV last night and the old
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: spice commercial comes home, all right, and one of our
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: popular couples that play in it, and he's talking about
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: the mom is visiting and using up all his old
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: spice and get to Pops on screen, Patty a little
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: bit looking good and with the attitude, tells how that
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: opportunity came to you? Because I laughed, laugh, I lave Okay,
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: the opportunity came about a month ago. They called my
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: my son's or he was my manager, and said would
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: your mom be interested in doing an old spice commercial?
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: And so I said why, I said, my father used
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: it all the men and my family use it for them.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: They asked me to do an old spice commercial. Uh,
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: it just made my day. And we went out there
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: and we did it about three weeks ago, and it
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: was one of my fun moments with Dion and Gabby.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: You know, he's crazy and I mean, and I want
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: to go over. He has my little row with those
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: little balls and he looks stupid. You know. I love
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: the way he looked. So I was happy to do it. Well,
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: you know, the funny part about it is that you know,
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: you know you're making me feel good because you've always
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: made me feel good. And then the fans you've always
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: made me made them feel good. But the little attitude
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: and you squirt out the old spice let them know
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: it's empty. Was that that was? Was that improv or?
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: They said, this is what they want you to do.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: Did you put a little patty on it, a little pattism? Well, well,
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: patty stank. They wanted me to say that, and that's it.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: And I had some other lines that I said, but
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: it hasn't been shown yet but it was off it
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: was scripted. I was good. I didn't go off script
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't stop too much. No, just my attitude,
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: you know as well, when you're naturally funny. That's gonna
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: say that. But you've also drew on drama roles in
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: your life. Is there a uh, is there a a
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: favorite or style of acting you prefer the comedy or
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: the drama or and if so, which has been your
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: favorite role that you played over the years. Well, I
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: love I love the drama. I don't consider myself a
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: comedian or funny or anything like that. So playing Queen
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: Land thief's mother on Star and Brandy's mother being a roughneck,
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: a ghetto mom, I really like that. I love being
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: a minister on green Leaf, uh so a pastor. And
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: I love the roles that I've been getting, you know,
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: And like my favorite time was a different world playing
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: Chipmunks mother. Oh my gosh, me and Diane Carol, when
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: we were fighting over the turkey with the sausage or
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: the jibbist or whatever. She just some fun in a
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: different world that I love doing. Well, you know, that
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: was that was a groundbreaking role for for us as
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: black people. You know, the Cosmic show was out there
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: by the way, But then when they brought this show
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: that showed blackness and showed young black people and then
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: the relatives or young black people coming into a world.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: Did you realize the impact of that show or your
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: participation that show when you did the Different World Patty,
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: I did meanwhile? Or Shaun my dog is barking? Can
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: you hear him being ignorant? I can't put him out?
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: But no, I I realized the importance of that role.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: I realized the importance of that show, you know, showing
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: black kids educated, you know, and it's just beautiful role.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: It was a beautiful time for me. You know. Here's
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: the fun part about you and how timeless you are. Okay,
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: so when Versus came up and it was you and
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: Gladys on versus, and that's gonna be real. People have
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: a general tendency believe that people at a certain age
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: aren't relevant anymore, and so they have a general tendency
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: not to let them participate. You're when you and Gladys
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: showed up in the middle of COVID now and showed
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: up and showed out, talk about how that came about,
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: and then talk about because I, okay, it's the middle
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: of COVID, so there was some medical issues concerned and
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: all those things. But it was important to do this,
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: and you did it in the world. I loved it.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: They sure did. It was a call from Gladys actually
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: uh to say that they wanted she they wanted her
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: to do versus and who would she like to do
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: it with. So of course she said me, because we're girlfriends.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: And when people say we had a battle, it was
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: never a battle. We sing the same type of music,
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: were at the same age. I'm seventy seven, I think
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: she's seventy six or whatever, and we banged together. We
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: don't try to compete with each other, and it brought us.
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: It was COVID and we got double checked and everything before.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: We sit down close to each other, so it was safe.
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: It was safe, great, healthy fun to be able to
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: sing after being at that time a year off from COVID,
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: no shows and stuff. So I kicked my shoes off,
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: I pretended I was on stage and it was just
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: a book one other things together. Also, O geez, well,
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: I'm just telling that feels like a Las Vegas show,
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: That's all I'm saying. You know, but you know that's
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: just me. But I know your song is a fantastic manager.
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: He's gonna work out that deal. I just know that
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: seeing seeing history being played out, being able to walk
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: down memory lane, and but your smile, I want to
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: I want to just talk about that smile, labrilliance of
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: the Patty LaBelle smile, because there's a certain energy to
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: read each from that that makes me feel good. You
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: want of those people. If I'm in the hospital and
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: I'm not doing good and Padd Labell came through that
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: dough smiling, I think, I think my heart rate going
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: to get right, my blood pressure going, don't go down.
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: Talk about the just the essence of Patty LaBelle. I
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: don't know. I'm a very um smiley person and a
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: very happy person, a very blessed person because I'm still standing.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: And my sister died, you know, before they turned fifty,
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: So I thought that would be my curse not to
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: be here at seventy seven. I'm here smiling and just
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: lighting up my life and lighting some of the around me.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: Even though they say they get such joy for me,
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: and I take that as the highest compliment, so I can.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: I will continue to smile and bring good joy to everybody.
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: And my little dog. Can hear my act up again?
