Around the Room: Cinnamon Attacks, Sperm Parties & a Stolen Shark Tooth Pickup Line

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
It's time to go around the room with Elvis Duran
in the Morning show.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
It's no time for around the room. Look at that.
You're so excited, Daniel. I'm to start with you today,
all right.

Speaker 1 (00:13):
So my cat Diggy used to be very attached to
my oldest son, Spencer, but he went away to college,
so he had to find someone new. Well, he is
so attached to my younger son Preston now, Like I
go in there and he's wrapped in his legs over
night and it's like his new best friend. It is
the cutest thing. But now Spencer is so jealous.

Speaker 3 (00:36):
She forgot about me.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
All I did was go to school. But that's what
they do when you're not there. They find someone else
that they have to like, you know, And now she
has a new vestie. It's I think it's cute, Spence.
Spencer's like not till I come home.

Speaker 4 (00:49):
When I come home, it's.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
All over the cat fights. Yeah, it's crazy.

Speaker 5 (00:53):
DIGGI loves who she loves.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
She does.

Speaker 5 (00:54):
She can't sellect her.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
She's a fluffy ball, the cutest.

Speaker 6 (00:58):
Our two dogs are like that. They're all over me,
but when Alex is at the house, they're all over him.

Speaker 2 (01:03):
Yeah, I'm like, what am I?

Speaker 4 (01:05):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:05):
The other cat, Fred, he's my cat because he knows
I take care of him and I give him his medications.
I think he feels that that nurturing thing for me,
So he's like my misty.

Speaker 2 (01:14):
They know we love our pets. Hey producers, saying, what's up?

Speaker 7 (01:17):
I think we need to find reasons to throw ourselves
parties that are not the reasons we're used to. Like
parties are birthday, maybe a graduation towers. A listener reached out.
She is picking a sperm. She's using a sperm donor
to get pregnant. She threw herself a sperm party.

Speaker 2 (01:32):
Oh my god, I love that so much.

Speaker 5 (01:34):
We've all been to parties.

Speaker 2 (01:35):
Like that.

Speaker 4 (01:42):
Party.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
I'd give that a shot and we put your keys
in the bowl. What a fun experience.

Speaker 7 (01:49):
Take something that is positive in your life and make
a party out of it, because I just think that
is awesome. Excellent sperm picking party.

Speaker 2 (01:59):
Hey, straight in eight, what's up?

Speaker 8 (02:01):
I'm sorry, I'm stuck on the sperm party. Can you
come back to me?

Speaker 2 (02:07):
Okay, what about you?

Speaker 4 (02:10):
I could clean it up for this. So I you know,
in my new building that I moved into I didn't
realize that, you know, something was up when I tipped
one person and then there was another porter that I tipped,
and then I had tipped and it's one of the
assistant supers for doing some basic stuff for me and
help me make my life, make my life easy, and

(02:32):
I like to buy the third person. I got these
weird vibes and I'm like, what's the matter with the
tipping thing here? They're like, we're just not used to it.
Because the first couple of guys couldn't believe they didn't
want to take my money.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
I cannot believe.

Speaker 4 (02:45):
I can't understand that there's a world without tipping, where
people are just they don't reach out and give to
the people that do the most for you.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
And I just couldn't understand it.

Speaker 4 (02:56):
But apparently the culture and the building that I moved
into is a non tipping culture. But I just couldn't
believe that, you know, these people are doing stuff for me,
and apparently they do this all day long.

Speaker 2 (03:06):
They're thankless jobs that they.

Speaker 4 (03:08):
Feel like they you know, carrying these big, heavy state
of things here and there, and they don't get anything
for it. They don't get anything, And I feel so
awful for them. People need to just open up their
wallets a little bit. If someone's performing a service for you,
the human decency, whatever you could afford, even if it's
like a dollar.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
I agree something, I totally agree with. You Just are crazy? No, no,
you're not crazy. Okay, Okay, back to Nate, have you
I'm ready? Did you get the other one out of
your head?

Speaker 6 (03:35):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (03:35):
It's out of Okay, go ahead.

Speaker 8 (03:38):
So if you have difficulty meeting people, this may sound
weird and you may think it's strange. Play twenty questions, right.
So a buddy and I we went to a bar
and he looked at somebody at the bar and said,
I bet twenty questions, you'll never guess what's in my pocket.
He had some unique item in his pocket. Twenty questions,
I kid you not. On the twentieth question, she guessed

(04:00):
exactly what it was.

Speaker 2 (04:01):
What was it?

Speaker 8 (04:02):
A megaladon shark tooth he walks around with meg. Guess
is that she asked the right questions She got to
the point after twenty questions she narrowed it down. Okay,
and it was a great way to start a conversation
with the younger.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
Guess what's in my pocket. I would say, I'm not
gonna sayis at a bar?

Speaker 2 (04:28):
I know, but you have to ask the right questions
to get you to the answer.

Speaker 8 (04:31):
And she legitimately had a good time and was so
excited to see this thing when he finally whipped it out.
Danielle and uh so there there you go. If you
have a difficult time making friends with people, try and
make it entertaining and fun. I'm with the other person.

Speaker 2 (04:45):
I'm with you, Hey, Scott to be our special guest.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
Hey, what's the timeframe where you are allowed to keep
a package that was delivered to you by mistake? My god, listen, listen.
I always try to do the right thing. I even
it was. It was sitting on my driveway. It was
from Dose. It was one of those those supplement drinks
or whatever that she must have ordered. Her name was

(05:08):
on it, her dress was on it. But it was
sitting in my driveway. So I went so far as
to reach out to her on Instagram. I'm like, hey,
I got your package. I'm happy to drop it off
at your house if you want me to whatever. No response,
So can I just drink it now?

Speaker 7 (05:21):
No?

Speaker 2 (05:21):
Just drop it off.

Speaker 3 (05:24):
She probably already reported as missing. Got a new package.

Speaker 2 (05:27):
Just put it on the porch. Why are you going
around in circles in your head with this? Just put
it on her port How long ago?

Speaker 3 (05:34):
It's been a week already.

Speaker 5 (05:35):
This happens to me all the time.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
I get Amazon packages with the person across the street,
and I just walked down and put them on the porch.

Speaker 3 (05:41):
But I even tried to contact Amazon. Nobody cares. That's
you ain't.

Speaker 2 (05:45):
Nobody cares. You're right, you don't care. Just take it
to her house and play there.

Speaker 5 (05:48):
You know where we're supposed to go.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
I feel like it'd be creepy if some random guy
walks up to her house. So I'm just gonna keep
it so.

Speaker 5 (05:54):
You don't really want to.

Speaker 2 (05:54):
Why you even ask, You're a weirdest weirdo.

Speaker 1 (05:57):
You just wanted us keep it.

Speaker 5 (05:58):
That's it all right with you, all right? I always
used to think Denmark was a really cool place. We've
been there. It's nice, the people seem great. And then
I found out this horrible tradition. Apparently, if you reach
the age of twenty five and you're not yet married,
they tie you to a chair and pelt you with cinnamon. Yes,
I would have been cinnamon lomed. Oh my god, that
sounds atrocious.

Speaker 6 (06:19):
Light So the pressure's on. Yeah, I'm sure they don't care.
All right, Well, I'd rather be pelted with cinnamon.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
They get married.

Speaker 5 (06:24):
Yeah, I mean, I guess if there's a trade off,
I will take the cinnamon.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
But damn, man, you hate cinnamon.

Speaker 6 (06:29):
I hate it.

Speaker 5 (06:29):
That's like my worst nightmare. I'm tied down and you're
pelting you with cinnamon and I'm unmarried. Oh my god,
my hah, it'd be crazy. The unmarried part's fine.
