would you talk about on your on your podcast Firms

a complaint. You know, I thought you guys were my friends.
You should look out for me. If I come in
here and I have like a booker in my nose,
(01:43):
I want you to say, hey, yo, you've got a
booger in your You don't want me to embarrass myself.
You have to look out for me. Okay. Two things
happened yesterday when I was dancing and singing to Beautiful
Balloon and then web girl Kathleen put it up on
my on my Instagram. Howing to let me get away
with that. Secondly, we're having fun and singing today on
(02:05):
the air that sounded like ship no, you. It was good.
You put you, you got into character. It was awesome.
People were did you think? Did you check Twitter? People
were tweeting and saying that they were enjoying they here's
the thing. We need to be looking out for each other, Danielle.
You see you sing, well, so if you were singing,
but if you didn't. For instance, if I've heard Gandhi
(02:28):
sing and she's a great singer, did you guys know
she's a singer. Yeah. I don't want to even try
to claim that I'm not a singer. Okay, but yes
I'm a songwriter. Let's say, let's say great tea singing something. Yeah, no,
I would hope. Did you guys tell me a lot
of good would stop him? Say? No, dude, it's not you.
You got to look at your for your friends. Do
you look out for your friends? Do your friends look
(02:49):
out for you? I tried to. I told you, whenever
I see someone who looks a hot mess in public,
I think they have terrible friends. Nobody told them that
they looked messy. Right now, just let him go. I
think you're right. We should all live by that. But
you starn't wear that shirt. I like the shirt. I
said that to my husband yesterday. What I said, Yeah,
you know that shirt you have, it's probably time to
(03:10):
retire it. And he's like, what do you mean. It's
a little short, a little shrunk in the wash. And
he goes, this is a great shirt to go. You
know what, how about this, I'll go through your closet
and decide what's great and what's not. I don't know,
I'll keep the ones that's still fit. And he goes,
really because he tends to. He looks great in his clothes,
but he doesn't shop a lot like I do, and
(03:30):
so he tends to. Even you know, cotton shrinks in
the wash, and after a couple of years, the shirts
get shorter. Even my kids, do you know, it just happens.
He holds onto them, he just he am. I you're
looking out for him, And that's the point of this conversation.
We need to be looking out for each other. Yeah,
I thought you did a great job, so I wouldn't
have cut that off anyway. So you wanted us to say, Elvis,
(03:53):
you know what, don't do this song. Maybe it's just
isn't right. You know, I didn't like this song from
the beginning. Okay, you are awesome. You were like so
into it you did you put your voice on, like
the Danny voice. Danny. Okay, So okay, let's turn this
into what this conversation truly is. It's me fishing for compliment.
You get such a great It's me fishing for compliments.
(04:17):
You're kidding. And look, some people some people don't fish
for compliments. I do sometimes, Like I'll walk in and
I'll go, hey, Alex, is this shirt okay? And I
think the shirt looks good, like what do you mean?
Then you look at me and say, well, don't ask
me from my opinion if you don't want it. And
(04:39):
the worst at this is straighten ate straighten. It'll walk
in and I'm going, okay, I think I look pretty
good today. But let me just hey, guys, smooth, what
do you think of this? He'll go, I don't know
those those jeans? I mean you, And I'll look at
you and go, shut up, you're not saying the right thing.
Don't you appreciate my honesty? Remember that time you were
trying to wear a tie with a suit and I'm like,
(05:00):
I just wouldn't do the tie, and you go, what
do you know? Here? For me? You're in Pennsylvania. If
you don't even wear he didn't hear what he wants
to hear, you'll turn it on. Am I the only
one guilty of fishing for compliments? No? I think everyone
does at some point. I did a last night. My
husband gave me a look, and I knew it was
a look to say you look cute, you know, like
(05:20):
when your husband or your other half does that. So
I went, what what are you looking at me for?
Because I knew that's why, And he looks at me again.
He goes, no, don't try it. You know what I meant.
You're not getting a compliment. He's playing along. Great T
would fish for his own compliments and then be his
own complimentary person. He used to stare in the mirror
(05:43):
and he used to say, hey, scary, come over here.
You see that? And I'm like, no, no, what's that?
He goes, it happened again? What happened? I just got hotter.
I used to give himself for you. But that's not
fishing for a compliment, just giving himself a compliment. Great
and I were talking about this yet last week and
he goes, you know, and I just I don't. At
(06:05):
the end, of the day when this show is over.
I just don't think anybody's gonna remember me to me
and I go, are you serious? You've been here since
day one, You've done many of things, you've met, made
a lasting impression on a lot of people. So people
are going, he wanted me to go, Greg t you
are the greatest thing. Okay, let me ask you this question.
What is wrong with just looking for a little compliment
(06:27):
and throwing it out there? What's wrong with that? Sometimes
sometimes we all need some some someone to reassure us
that everything's okay. It's not always real though, Like if
you're like, oh, how do I look so bad in
that video? We all told you look good in the video,
but that could be just make you feel better. Like
if we really thought you look good in the video,
we would have come to you when you first filmed
(06:48):
it and we saw it and liked it and commented.
But what's wrong with making him feel better than this?
He should know we're lying. No, say, I'm asking you
as feel better? Right, So what's wrong with It's like cut?
What is wrong as a human being for needing a
little a little, a little reassurance? Titled to it, It's right,
So sometimes you have to fish for It depends on
who you surround yourself with. Look, you know, in this
(07:09):
room and we're always so busy trying to one up
each other or say something funny or you know whatever,
sometimes we forget to look at each other. You go,
you know, you look really great, right, just that say
nice things. You're very good at that though. You're very
good at coming in and finding something good about someone like, oh,
gone to your hair looks great today, or scary that
show it really looks nice. What is he said? Scary?
That shirt looks nice. He's complimented me before examples. That's
(07:35):
a great thing about Elvis is he doesn't throw those
compliments out all the time. So when you get one,
you know that, oh I do really look good today.
I imagine what I get one. It's going to be awesome.
You know. I give you compliments on things that you
that you are important to you, like the things you
write that are funny, or things that you've done that
you deserve credit on. I always know I was referencing, like, oh, Brody,
you look good today. I'm waiting for that. It's you
(07:57):
always look good. You look Brody, You're looking good needs
fishing for a compliment, and there's nothing wrong with it.
I get my compliment. Super hot Danielle our new sister Gandhi.
I don't hear her ever fishing for compliments. Maybe it's
(08:18):
just so new. Have you heard her she does? Well,
I didn't know. This is the thing. Here's what I think.
I actually think that Instagram and social media in general
is pretty much just fishing for compliments all the time.
I don't post hideous pictures of myself. I only post
when I think I look okay, So you're right, You're right.
Instagram is nothing but fishing for crane. Come tell me
I look good, And if you don't, I delete the comment.
(08:39):
Why else would we post scary? This is true. When
I feel like I'm dressed my best, That's when I
post a picture of myself. Right. But when I you know,
coming out of bed in the morning, I'm like, out here,
I'm not posting any of that. Grow. I do love
the people who just do it with no makeup, like
Cardi B. Sometimes she'll just roll into Instagram looking like
a ham and I like her for that because I'm like, oh, look,
(09:00):
you not Karen, But she looks fantastic. Still no, not
without I show you some stuff, Danielle. I'm gonna show
you some stuff. But I like that she's honest about
it and just owns it. I like that. So I
think it's best when they don't look made up and
because they're at their their natural So I think people,
if you like people who use too many filters, I
(09:21):
think people know that those are filters now, Like Alex
does that. Like last night he two days ago he
posted a photo of Uncle Johnny. Yeah, and it looks like,
you know, Johnny looks really good, but if you closely, closely,
it looks like his face is melting because he uses
the you know, like look really melted face filter. Yeah, yeah,
I agree. You hear what Kanye said the other day
(09:42):
that social media should just get rid of likes and
and uh followers, so you can just post thoughts and
not have to worry how many people like a photo
of you or like a comment or retweet. That is,
like you can do that. You can turn off comments off,
but not not comments like how many hearts you get
or how many retweets you get it, or how many
people have viewed your comments. I was just saying the
(10:03):
other day, so it's on Twitter, right, and I'm going,
you know what, I don't care no offense. Let's say Elvis,
Let's say I follow you and you like, I don't
know some cooking channel, right, and it comes up, says
Elvis Duran just like cooking whatever. I don't really care
because I don't really like that cooking thing. But I
want to hear your thought. So like you're walking around,
You're like, you know what, I'm gonna tweet this thought.
It's a beautiful day and I love being in New York.
(10:25):
That I want to read. But whether or not you
like this cooking thing or not, Like, I don't think.
I think it's getting rid of people liking your post,
like the heart, not seeing other people's likes you. I
don't want to see your likes, because what do I care?
Were talking about liking your post? Why is this you?
You should eliminate having having people liking your post. Just
post something and let it sit there. No, I want
(10:46):
to know Instagram will change because the co founders of
Instagram are stepping down. They've decided to resign because they
said that they want to do something else now. And
I guess they're probably gonna give us something else. I'm
sure they're creating some thing else. So maybe the people
who take over might switch up Instagram a little bit.
Maybe they'll listen to you take I think I think
Instagram is Instagram. I don't think immediately kill its marketing power.
(11:10):
Once you take away the likes and the like, they're
never going to get rid of that because that's how
you kind of quantify how popular somebody is. But with
that said, maybe there's room for something else where you
can just be creative. You can put that out there
and you're not open. You're doing it because it's you
and pure and what You're not doing it just to
get like, you know what that was? What was fine? Yeah?
Vine did that. It was hard about he is I
(11:32):
just created a great thing in six seconds. Watch it.
Maybe we should create this app right now. Trademark we're
doing it. Done, trademark the idea, don't rip us off.
Yesterday she said trademark. I heard her say the word
trade mark. I put a video up on Instagram yesterday
just for giggles, just to see how well have you
ever done this? Heavy? Reposted something you didn't get the
(11:53):
response you wanted, so you took it down. Done it.
It's like a network canceling a show. I'm curious that
no one's watching. What have you posted? Where you go?
You know what, I gotta take it down because I
haven't gotten so much traction on nothing. I think I
left it all out there. I've never taken down a
post unless it was a mistake that I posted it
to begin with. Well, yeah, but I've never No, I've
never taken it down for lack of likes. Okay, so
(12:15):
let's talk about motivation to post something. For instance, today
I posted a photo of my Max, Max the dog
from when he was a puppy, and I wished him
a very happy birthday. I said, happy birthday to my
little boy. I love you. Now. I didn't do that
to brag because I have this this puppy. I didn't
do it to send him a message because he doesn't read,
you know, English. Obviously, I did it for a reason.
(12:37):
I'm assuming my motivation was I want everyone to know
that I love my dog, and I wanted everyone to
know that I'm a dog lover and so much so
that you know, I'm celebrating a birthday the day he
is just like any other day for him. You know what,
I'm saying, so, like, what's your motivation? Every time you
post something? You just post it because you just know
it's what you would post. But what's your motivation behind
(12:58):
each and every post? I think that's different motivation behind
every post exactly. From my son's birthday, it's to wish
mappy birthday, let everyone know how much you love your family. Whatever. Exactly,
there's your motivation when we look so cute and all
of our red outfits. Oh yeah, I heart festival. When
we were matching MATCHI that was because we were cute
and matching MATCHI Right. What was Scary's motivation for posting
the picture with Luke? I don't know who you are? Brian?
(13:19):
He was talking about how he's been turned into any
understand up friend. What's your what's your favorite song when
you jam it to drink a beer? Hey, So here's
the thing. Luke Brian, he didn't know who he was.
He'd heard of him, but he met him and said, Hey, everyone,
I want you to know that I now like this
singer and I'm gonna get to know him better. But
(13:41):
that's that's the thing about music too, especially at the festival,
where you get you get to learn about all these
new artists. So I congratulate Scary for opening his mind
outside of E, D M and hip hop. But Garrett
the Great Team gave him crap on it because you're
talking about it artist you don't know. Because Great teas
that guy where he's like, I've been a fan to
day one. No one else is allowed to be a
(14:01):
fan after me. It's fan one. Everyone else take a seat.
I was originally angry because I thought maybe Scary didn't
know much about this person. But if he phrases it like, wow,
I've just been turned onto something new and cool and
here's the guy I met, then that's okay. Well, who
are you to tell someone who they can like? And
he's been a fan since day one? Who care? Doesn't
(14:22):
mean you own him? Police. You like the Dallas Cowboys
one day, the Jets the next thing, you know, the
Luke Brian's of the world. I must assume appreciate all
the fans they've had over the years, but they're probably
really excited about getting a new fans like somebody knew.
They will think about what Lukerian likes terrible about you
(14:42):
put him down like that. They also find that I
would post like behind the scenes stuff at home because
people like to see what you do when you leave
this building. So like yesterday walked into the bathroom, Sheldon says,
Oh my gosh, come up here and stay with the cats.
Did so. I took my hands to my Instagram story
and there was paper towels everywhere. You post it? Why
(15:04):
did you post? That's? What's your motivation? We're so naughty?
I wanted to share with everyone. Oh here it is.
I wanted to share with everyone. How what Oh well,
don't look at the mess. Oh naughty, that's funny. Yeah,
(15:29):
Oh that's wait, hold on, that's that's oh death at
the same time as my Instagram because I was listening
to in the car what was that? Okay? Uh? Is
that where you're going? Right now? Straight to listen to
the last episode of Doctor Death, the worst podcast ever.
(15:50):
I'm gonna the best podcast. Boys is good? Alright? Like them? Well? Anyway,
so you know you put these things up without thinking, well,
what is your true motivation? Sometimes you can learn a
little about yourself when you figure out why you are
posting things. Don't just put them on. I like to
laugh if I if I could feel like I get
(16:11):
a joke out of somebody you know, like like a
punchline so people don't laugh. Yourmer who's your motivation? I
got fifteen minute morning show
