11:01 am
it's going to have to be done in phases. you know, we're going to have to do all the social distancing. it could very well be open to the public, but just come walk around, enjoy the scenery. therwant to shine a bright light right? and we're only gonna let x amount of people in at a time. on a few of the individuals and businesses and who knows how long that's what going to go on? that i've filmed with over the years who are opening back up, just to sort of test the waters and see how that's going to work out. we absolutely are going to come back and who are just now having to adapt to this new normal. stronger, different, better than we ever have before. an idea-- why don't you grow out a mullet, and start so let's revisit with some old friends. sit back, relax, enjoy the show, and by all means, stay safe. calling yourself jason exotic? jason chatfield: why would i want to do that, man? johnny: why not? jason chatfield: he's pretty popular right now, for sure. [theme music] dr. jason, thank you for taking the time to bring me up to speed on what's theme song: i'm gonna give up the [inaudible].. going on with jungle island. i felt like the day that i spent there, i really did, you know, grow attached to a lot of the animals there. jason chatfield: yeah, no problem, johnny. any time, just give us a shout. we enjoyed having you, and you know, i thank you for your concern. johnny: i get to meet some pretty special people on "1st look." group hug, guys. but there's one person in particular that has made a lasting impression. listen, danny trejo-- the man, the myth, the machete. nobody knows machete.
11:02 am
johnny: so iconic is he that snl's pete davidson even rapped about him. (rapping) handlebar mustaching like danny trejo, as i got my own tacos. that's right, trejo's tacos. and also, i got my own donut shop.

11:03 am
it's sad, and then you just kind of-- like, oh, my gosh. it's like this every day. are we ever going to get back to normal? johnny: tell me a little open for takeout and delivery.s but then sometimes you're like, i can't even imagine this park with people again. i got some people around the neighborhood that i deliver to because-- i keep saying elderly, but that's johnny: with the human race still in various phases not what we're talking about. they're younger than me. of lockdown, we're not the only species having tomorrow we're passing out pampers. to adapt to this new normal. and it's funny because we went from being shot callers in san so i decided to check in with an old friend, dr. jason chatfield quentin to passing out pampers. from jungle island in miami, home to some of the world's most rare and exotic animals, for delivering corpses who would have thought?thew to find out how they are coping without human interaction. is spending his days delivering pampers. [laughter] jason, it's-- it's great to see you again, man. and this isn't the first time that danny has it's great to see you, johnny. it reall stepped up for his community. lady ran a red light, crashed into that little explorer, i hope you're doing ok. flipped it over. what the hell are we doing? johnny: mean, danny, we've obviously seen the news story, this one peed on me! good for him. you helping an overturned vehicle. it still smells like-- like lemur poo. there was a baby inside, and-- perfect. how has this pandemic affected jungle island? and a grandma. but not only that, i witnessed firsthand-- you know, we've been closed to the public, so-- this self-isolation has hit me really hard, and i you know, we are a publicly driven place. could use a hug right now. we have cell phone video of you pulling over on the road, would you be willing to give me one? yes. i'd love to give you a hug. you getting out and just pushing a stranded motorist. we love people that come in. it's what we do here. well, thank you. the animals interact with people, so it's affected us, social distancing has become the new norm during this time
11:04 am
i immediately think of my daughter, or somebody-- my son. you know, tremendously. of quarantine, and with contact restrictions affecting so many paying it forward, it's like, i'm gonna get it back. the animals, they're used to people. and you can see it. we have a lot of birds, and when they stopped seeing the people, businesses, i couldn't help but think erhing good that has happened to me of one of the services i know that relies solely man, they went looking, they literally went looking for the people. has happened as a direct result of helping someone else. they would hop off their perch-- where are the people? on the benefits of human touch. what's going on today? so you are a professional cuddler? everything. today we're going to exercise little dude. you've got this incredible documentary coming out, what is little dude? yes. little dude is an african crested porcupine. the fact is as humans, we all have "inmate #1." he is actually the biggest type of porcupine. the ability to touch, and connect, danny trejo: this is about my journey. and heal with our touch. you know, i mean, where i started, where i ended up. yeah. has little dude been getting his steps in? we define it as platonic, physical touch therapy. and that's the point that i always make when i go talk. that's very important. group hug. he has been getting his steps in, for sure. group hug. no, it doesn't matter where you start. before it was like oh, you know, someone he didn't want to go, so i decided to check in with my cuddle coach, christina, that's why he got his name, the diva. it matters where you end up. but now you show up to his enclosure with that lead, to see if snuggling could survive in the land of 6 feet johnny: while danny's life may have taken he almost puts his head right into it, many different roads, he's always managed apart. says let's go, where we going? christina, i gotta start off by saying i love what to travel them in style. he is ready to get out and walk around. you've done with the place. - thank you. so within your collection, i mean, do so that's a very different behavior. you have a personal favorite? thank you. yeah, there's actually this bull-- i mean, obviously the animals are still there, the '65 buick riviera i think, is probably one of the rarest. yeah. but what's it like for you to be walking around the park when-- photo. and if i put my head here, i have horns. it's ok. i've been-- i've been a double since the day i was born, so-- we took the '65 buick rivy out saturday, you know, when it's on a virtual tour? for those didn't see the episode, what's cuddlist? lead the way, doc! ok. it's basically cuddling, professional cuddling, see all of this beautiful beautiful area becaas cruise night off van nuys boulevard. it got mobbed, homes. that we have, and there's just nobody here. and it's the co-regulating work, and meditation,sh uch johnny: so is that what you're rolling in these days? and so desolate is a word that comes to mind. you're still cruising in the rivy? and talk therapy. danny trejo: well, you know what? empty.
11:05 am
it's sad. in 1965, the feds arrested me in a '65 buick. and then you just kind of, like, oh, my gosh. it's like this every day. are we ever going to get back-- back to normal? how great is that, man? and it really is an entirely different experience. you're still cruising in the same car, but instead of committing crimes, man, i mean, because when i was there, i mean, it was swarming. you're doing amazing things for the community. hey, that's where i took pictures with the parrots. i owe-- you know, i owe a lot. [vocalization] jason chatfield: it's always packed full of people. it's one of our best [inaudible].. speaking of social distance, look at these guys. they're like-- they gotta be, what, 20 feet apart there? johnny: hello, mate! jason chatfield: hello, mate. we have-- we have mighty mouse, which is this guy right here. johnny: ok. jason chatfield: if i hop in the back, and i'm gonna see if i can walk up and give me a scratch. nope. he's like, you're doing something, right? he's like, this-- he's like, this is where-- this is part of the covid, you know, effect, right? the pandemic effect. because they're not-- they're used to having people. and now they see me once or twice a day, and that's it. are the animals at jungle island-- is there any risk of them contracting covid-19?

11:15 am
with a diaper as a child.on doo] welcome in, dude. i think i was the first time that i've spooned, bear hugged, koala'd in a tree, and star gazed with another man. that was so good. it truly is an art form. and this art form has adapted to the new normal by going completely online. so moving from the toes, you're going to just touch the foot. touch the rest of your foot. i've found that it's actually incredibly effective to guide people through what
11:16 am
i call, like, a body scan. we're going all the way up the legs, and the stomach, and the ribs, and the chest, neck, head, all the way to our hair. so it's really a guided touch meditation for self-soothing. so self-soothing, then, in a way, replaces the touch of another human being? yeah. it does. so we're going to do a patting, where we we pat either arms. and you do it in this rhythm, alternating. in fact, they use it to help children with autism to self-soothe in situations where they feel stressed, right? yeah, go ahead and do it. thank you. and you're creating sensation in the brain that you're being touched by someone else. have you been noticing, you know, a spike, or an increase in clients, or people who are saying that they're depressed or down because of the lack of human interaction? yes. there's something about the lockdown, i think, that whatever you were experiencing before is maybe, like, magnified 10-fold. as we know, the pandemic has been, like, high stress,
11:17 am
and so now it's like-- yes. hey. let's, like, ease back into our bodies. let's trust the space we're in. like, it's a safe place. this self-isolation has hit me really hard, and i could use a hug right now. would you be willing to give me one? yes. i'd love to give you a hug. ok, we're going to hug ourselves in the way that we want to be hugged. ok. so i'm going to do this. you don't have to do it that way, though. like, would it feel better to go like that? - like, down here? - yeah. like, do your shoulders hurt? yeah, that's good. hug yourself down there. or like, one of these? yeah, that's great. i could rub my own back. all right. yeah, that's right. i love it. i actually-- listen, i actually feel-- i feel much better now. let's count in four, hold four, exhale four. breathing is a reflection, often, of your feelings, right? so you're holding your breath, you have shallow breathing, all this stuff. you're not tuning in, right? you're not saying fully present. so if i'm guiding you right now, like, we're going through it and i say, ok, let's touch our jaw, we're going to take a deep breath at the same time, so--
11:18 am
you know, we're going to massage different parts of the face. we're going to keep breathing. we're going to keep taking a deep breath. you start to notice, like, you might be holding your breath. i think that's probably the most common thing. yeah. especially in isolation, we do a lot of breath holding, right? we're not getting that release, that flow. johnny, i kind of wanted to do one of my signature things with you before we sign off. it's a fingers in the ears and humming. whoa. ok, let's do it. so you're going to use your thumbs. we're going to do a deep breath, and when we exhale, we're going to hum. - ok. ready? [humming] i feel complete. how are you? we did it. did we do it? wow. i feel great. i tell you what, this was a great session, man. i got-- i got hugs, i got hummed. this was amazing.
11:19 am
11:20 am
11:21 am
welcome back. here we are at tropical [inaudible] right now, with all of our rays. you guys don't recognize me without my seashell bra on. why did the mermaid wear seashells? i have no idea. because b shells were too small, and d cells were too big. that is good. it's the bearded mermaid. he's back. i do. well, no, the view i had was actually from the outside,
11:22 am
looking in. i had the mermaid's eye view. and what a view that was, with over 5,000 aquatic creatures. here she comes. now get it in your mouth. there she goes. i fed a shark! sea life aquarium enables visitors to take a journey under the sea in landlocked tempe, arizona. with the governor of arizona allowing the opening of non-essential businesses that are able to meet cdc guidelines, the sea creatures at sea life aquarium are saying goodbye to home schooling, and dusting off their fins in preparation for reopening. sea life aquarium is reopening tomorrow. how excited is everybody? we are super excited to be reopening. it's definitely not something that was taken lightly. sea life aquarium worked very closely with a lot of our local health authorities to make changes that have allowed us to reopen, thankfully, and give people that bright spot in a little bit of the darkness, to be able to get away from it
11:23 am
for a little while. what safety measures is sea life aquarium putting in place for the reopening? and stuff like that to help our guests maintain social distancing. as you're walking through the attractions, we have some nice little follow the fishes on the floor. we'll lead you over to kind of our viewing areas. we're asking one family group at a time. johnny: i see dory! and nemo. we found nemo. baily stone: all of the social markings have been laid out, so you're not going to miss any of the exhibits. you're not going to miss out on any of the experience that you would have had pre the closure. it's just little markers for us to be able to help you keep space. as you're walking through, if you have little ones with you that have touched some acrylic, and stuff like that, you can come over, take a couple pumps, and be able to know that your hands are nice and sparkly clean, just like the exhibits.
11:24 am
it was a very happy day for all of us aquarists when we goe tnks, and start diving again. not only because we get to get in and clean that algae spot that's been bugging us for three months. it's really satisfying to be able to get back in the water and do our jobs fully. i'd say it looks clean enough to eat off of, but that wouldn't be appropriate with the guidelines put in place right now. baily stone: we definitely have everything in a nice, pristine condition, so everybody can really enjoy our animals. if you look just in a second, you might get a mochi sighing. mochi-- there she is! mochi! baily stone: i just heard the audio cue for our [inaudible] sea turtles, liva and cora. it's their lunch time. so what's on the menu for them today? baily stone: looks like we got some red leaf going on, some bok choi, [inaudible],, some shrimp.
11:25 am
looks like some mahi. these sea turtles eat better than i do. they eat better than i do. i can tell you that. johnny: lunchtime! what a cutie. baily stone: they are. they are all very happy and healthy, chomping at the bit to have those kids staring at them again. has this affected the animals in any way? have you seen any change in their behavior? we definitely do have some animals that you would consider more the charismatic animals, like a ray swimming up to the window and interacting. mochi is definitely missing a little bit of that interaction of being able to show her good side to the window. and they are definitely missing the people. what are you looking forward most to reopening? i'm really excited to have the kids back. i miss, you know, the little five year old kid that was me. you know, i miss being able to impart a little bit of my experience, and my passion on that little kid. because we're landlocked, we're in the middle of a desert.
11:26 am
so we have a huge population of people that don't get to travel, that don't get to go see the ocean in person. so these are important things to be able to have them have that physical, hands on experience of looking at a stingray, or looking at a sea turtle, that they would never have been able to see. i just want to thank you for taking the time to give me an update on what's going on with all my-- you know, little sea creature friends there. we'll definitely be on the lookout for the bearded mermaid. the legend of the bearded mermaid. as the world adjusts to this new reality-- woo! it leaves me to say thank you to all those who are working to create a sense of ordinary in what is truly an extraordinary time. so from all of us at "1st looks," stay safe, and i'll see you next week.
11:27 am
