Speaker 1 (00:01):
It's time to go around the room with Elvis Duran
in the Morning show.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Hey, we're in a room.
Speaker 3 (00:06):
Let's go around the room. What's on the minds of
everyone in the room. I'll start with you, Gandhi, what's
going on?
Speaker 4 (00:12):
Okay?
Speaker 5 (00:12):
I think I have not necessarily a plan B, but
a part time job that I want to take up
after I get out of this job.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
What's that?
Speaker 5 (00:19):
I want to be a nine one one operator.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
What do you guys think? Oh, okay, well, let's investigate.
Why do you want to be a nine one one operator?
Speaker 5 (00:26):
Thank you for asking? Elvis only so I know that
they need a lot of help, and it seems like
in really bad situations, so many times you hear these
nine one one calls and you're like, man, that operator
was kind of a jerk, or if you could have
just helped them out a little more in a different way,
it would have been great. And I thought I could
do that. I could totally help people, send send someone
in the right time to the right place, and be
nice to someone, keep them calm. I would like to try,
(00:48):
and they need help, so why not I could do it?
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Can you do it from home?
Speaker 6 (00:52):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (00:53):
And then also i'd get like maybe a foot in
the door with the police department. I need them on
my side for things in a future job. No, all good,
it's like all good intentions.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
There's all good stuff.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
My suggestion is you go shadow a nine to one
one call center before you jump into this idea.
Speaker 5 (01:10):
Okay, if anyone runs one of those things, let me
know I would like to be there.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
She'll be for right there, front and center. All right,
just listening right, At least you're thinking of your future.
So when this place blows up, and it could any
day now, yeah, you're ready.
Speaker 7 (01:22):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Hey, our special guest on the around the room, Scotty Bee,
Scotty Bee, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Hi there?
Speaker 6 (01:27):
What's on my mind is that I think that we
should just leave the farming to the farmers, because you know,
I've had a garden in my backyard for many, many,
many years, and this year has been more frustrating than
ever before. Well, I plant tomatoes and cucumbers and snap
peas and string beans, and by the time they're ready,
they're half eaten. The freaking bunnies and the squirrels and
my dog bo I say go outside and go peepers,
(01:48):
and he goes out there and starts eating my tomatoes.
And it's just at the end of the day, it's
more expensive and so much more frustrating to play in
your own garden than just to go to the shop
right and buy a pint of tomatoes. So this is
going to be the last year that I'm guardening because
I'm pissed.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
I mean it's fun.
Speaker 6 (02:07):
I like watching things grow, but when you can't eat
it because things have destroyed it, it's just like, forget it.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Our problem with the garden is things grow at such
a rapid rate. We can't keep up with it. And
I try to give stuff to my friends. We've actually
had people come by and try to take some of
the vegetables to centers where they need fresh vegetables to
help feed people.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
I can't keep up with that.
Speaker 5 (02:28):
I'll help you.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
I need to manage my garden quantity a little better.
The quality is fabulous, that's awesome. Yeah, we got some
good stuff, including Helopenia peppers this year, some cukes, we
got some zucchini, lots and lots of tomatoes.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
The tomatoes are out of control this year. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (02:45):
Well, I'm happy to donate a bushel of half eaten
tomatoes if anyone wants them.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
That so discussing, you know, if they're getting the bugs
are getting to your vegetables, that's not good.
Speaker 6 (02:55):
No, it's not the bugs, it's the freaking there's more
rabbits this year than I've ever seen, have so many rabbits.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
But you know we eat those two.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
The ones outside your house, yes.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
Well the ones on your the ones outside your house
do not have a lot of meat on them.
Speaker 6 (03:12):
Moving.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
There's just there's just nice gristly, hey, scary. What's on
your mind today?
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Well'm gonna I'm.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
Gonna premp my original around the room for something that
just happened in the hallway five minutes ago, when I
think Nate handed me a backhanded compliment.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
He goes, he looks at me, and he says, he goes, oh, well,
it looks like you're doing okay.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
You know.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Wait wise, he goes, you're not, I mean, last August
at this time, you were fat. Nate said that, Oh,
I said diplomatic.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
He said, okay, so I guess I'm not where I
was last August.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
So I guess that's a compliment.
Speaker 6 (03:48):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Look at the guy.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
You nowhere near as bad as you were this time
last year. You should take that as a compliment. I'm
trying to hold on.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
It's the way you pack it. Sometimes my filters just
a little well, that's the filters everything. If you could
say something, hey, you know this time last.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Year you were a lot heavier than your Now you
look great. That's great. I like doing He said that
you're doing your job maintaining.
Speaker 7 (04:12):
Yes, and it was usually I went on too elaborate,
but you know, I kind of just burst through like
the kool aid man. But you know, you know, you
look good, scary better, I look okay, No, remember how
Biggie was.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Even if you bring up last year, what did you
bring up last year? I say, you look great now
working out, he's going to the gym. I'm proud. Therefore,
you look great.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
Period.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
You look great, really good. Believe me, this time last
year you didn't tell him that. He'll know, You'll know
there's a difference between what Nate thought of me last
year versus now.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
And you just told me I looked great. He didn't
tell me that last year. All right, sorry, scary, it's good.
I'm pretty ser Sam, what's up? With you.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
So you've told us that when you're looking for directions,
you need to turn the radio sometimes just to pay attention.
I found out my version of that tick. When I'm
scared or stressed, I need to plug my ears. It
doesn't matter if it's silent in the room for some reason,
I just need to have my ears covered and it
creates this kind of safety barrier.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
You know that. My nephew Lucas says the same thing.
Does he react when he wants nobody to talk to him?
Or he puts his hands over his ears and I
know that he's stressed out and he's like, everyone leave
me alone.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
I don't know what it is.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
It just feels a little bit better again. Even if
it's just silent around me, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
I need to plug my ears and I feel better.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
It's a proven fact that when you hear noises, it
can distract the center of your brain subconsciously. One way
to know this, have you ever done the thing where
you stand on You just stand on one foot in
balance on one point, and if someone starts talking to you,
you may lose your balance. Okay, Yeah, Hearing someone talking
can throw you off in ways that you're not even
(05:50):
aware of Wow, So plug.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Your ears do we need to do?
Speaker 3 (05:53):
Or turn the radio down when you're trying to focus driving.
That's why it's going on.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Both know something, then he's looking it up. You're trying
to prove me right or right? Uh, Danielle.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Yes. So my friend was in Australia on a trip right,
and she says she got a note in a room
and it said Sydney's locals are curious and friendly creatures.
To avoid a visit, we recommend keeping your balcony door
closed when leaving your room.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Now.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
I felt like Gandhi when I read that, because I
was like, I think I might leave the door open
because if a cute, fuzzy koala bear is going to
be coming in the room, kangaroo wants to say hi,
I think I might be Okay, a wallaby.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
I don't want that?
Speaker 4 (06:33):
Why not?
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Because attack me? They might?
Speaker 7 (06:37):
Really?
Speaker 5 (06:37):
Yeah, well, look the walls and the wallabies and the kangaroos,
I too would welcome. But Australia is a land where
everything is trying to kill you, and the cute fuzzy
thing could be a spider the size of my Torso.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Fine, I'm playing with that fine for the rest of it,
absolutely all right.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
When we were in Mexico, we would leave our doors
a door to the terrace open at night. Yeah, during
the day while we were out holy forgiving about it.
We would come back and all of our snacks from
our backpacks were just all over the place. Animals are there,
They're going to get in and make a mess of
the place.
Speaker 5 (07:08):
That's a problem in India too, with monkeys. They do
break into places.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Yeah, yeah, okay. And finally, Nate, what's up? Okay? Pop quiz?
Hot shots? Jesus our president? Harry S. Truman. Does anybody
know what the S stands for? I know you probably know.
I don't. Oh, you don't anybody? Anybody?
Speaker 7 (07:26):
Anybody? Harry S.
Speaker 4 (07:27):
Truman?
Speaker 2 (07:28):
Salvator, Salvator, Danielle? What is it? S? It stood for nothing.
We had two relatives that their their names began with S.
He didn't have one, so he chose the middle initial
s to honor these two people. Now you know, you know,
Harry S. Truman, There you go, Thanks for sharing. You're welcome.
Speaker 5 (07:50):
Duran.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
We should go around the room every day. Oh wait,
we do.
