Sam East: Well, Rob, we're, obviously, very excited to have you in town, but, I have to say, I have a personal connection with you. We are, both, part-Filipino.
Sam East: Yes. I am half-Filipino.
Robert Michael Schneider: They get around, ha, the Filipinos?
Sam East: Awe, yeah; they sure do.
Robert Michael Schneider: The food was way better on my mom's side [the Filipino side]; the jokes were better on my dad's side {the Jewish side}.
Sam East: Yup, my dad's side's Jewish, too. We are kindred spirits.
Robert Michael Schneider: Yeah, I mean, my whole childhood, all I remember is mom yelling at me. "SEE WHAT HAPPENS?!!! SEE WHAT HAPPENS?!!! YOU FELL DOWN. SEE WHAT HAPPENS?!!! YOU WERE RUNNING AROUND THE HOUSE. SEE WHAT HAPPENS?!!! YOU BROKE THAT. SEE WHAT HAPPENS?!!! YOU HURT YOURSELF. SEE WHAT HAPPENS?!!!"
Sam East: That sounds so familiar, to me.

Bnei Lot are of an ancient origin. In the migratory tradition of Ruth begun more than two millennia ago, a remnant of David and Solomon migrated into Maritime Southeast Asia which comprises what is now Brunei, East Timor, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, The Philippines, and Singapore, as well as Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia, with a sizeable minority of Malays migrating back to their tribal allotments in Sephardic Judah, besides Terrestrial and Figurative Jordan.
