Speaker 1 (00:01):
It's time to go around the room with Elvis Duran
in the morning show Around the room. Here we go,
let's see what's on your minds today. Scary, I'll start
with you. What's up?
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Okay?
Speaker 3 (00:11):
I know there's a lot of controversy about wedding gifts
and what kind of cash you would give for certain
but here's a new one.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
If you're getting, is there any controversy about how much
you know the day of the week versus how much
they spend? Know that that's your controversial wrinkle.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
What if you're getting What if you're getting invited to
a wedding where the person is being married getting married
for the second time?
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Do you give a lesser gift for that?
Speaker 1 (00:38):
Do you want them to be happy in their marriage?
Do you want to wish them?
Speaker 4 (00:40):
Well?
Speaker 3 (00:40):
I do, but I also I also blew half my
paycheck on their first wedding.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
Okay, you know, and now that they're getting married a
second time, half your pa.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Let's make this clear. You're asking us what our opinion
is because you're about.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
To get so what is your opinion on that?
Speaker 1 (00:55):
My opinion is you're happy for them. You don't think
about what it costs you give them a gift then,
because you said you want in the way all happy,
I already gave you a gift. I'm not giving you
another one. That's your that's your attitude a little bit.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
He's making out double on me now because I hit
him for this wedding ten years ago.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
It's a hymn. So this is this is a true
story going on. What's his name. I'm not gonna say that,
but why not now I'm gonna if I if I
hit him a couple of years ago, now I gotta
he's gonna do another wedding. And now I'm not gonna
say it out loud. No, but I just thought that
he knows who he is.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
The lesser gift.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
He hasn't even hit me once wet yet because I
never got married.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
This is crazy. All this money's coming out of my pocket,
it's all out.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Wow. Okay, Well then then you know, if that's how
you want to do it. Does anyone agree or disagree?
Speaker 5 (01:36):
No?
Speaker 6 (01:36):
I think he's just give him a good gift. Yeah,
of course time around, because what if that first marriage
didn't suit him, which obviously it didn't. He's in a
better place now, he's happier now, he's found somebody who's
a better match for him now, and you don't want
to celebrate it the same.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Okay question R. Let's say, for instance, our friend Scotty. Yeah,
he decides he's gonna get on high set time. Okay,
he's not. But I'm sorry to say, our friend Scotty
is getting married for the second time. Yeah, are you
going to give him less of a gift second go
around because you've already given him a gift with another marriage,
is what you're saying. Scotty has give me the eye.
(02:10):
Look look at me in the eye right now.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Tell him that, Scotty Bee, as much as I love you,
I gave you a lot of money for your first wedding.
You're getting married a second time. I don't think I
should have to give you as much as.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
I gave you for your first one. I agree. I
tell you, what, if you were at my first wedding,
then you don't have to give me as much for
the second one. You're giving him a discount, Yeah, yeah, newbies.
Newbies have to give the full gift, and if you
were at the first one, you get fifty percent.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
I need a.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Yeah, yeah, all right, kind of makes sense.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Scotty.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Wow, we went from were going to really kill scary
to all of a sudden he makes sense.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
Well, listen, if I get married again, I don't know
what to expect from you, because whatever you gave me
the first time wasn't all that much. To be honest,
do no. Let me tell you something. If if you
are comparing the amount of what you're giving it a
wedding to the amount of things you received that night,
you owe me a lot of money. Yeah, this is
(03:09):
purely on how you look at it. I don't you
know what else.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
You're right If you're looking at this as a business transaction,
you gave us the world. I'll never go to a
wedding as great as that wedding was.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
I think I think I flew you out there? Did
I not?
Speaker 7 (03:20):
You?
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Did you?
Speaker 1 (03:21):
Did you put you in a hotel room?
Speaker 7 (03:22):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (03:23):
I put you in an hotel room. You had a
very expensive night. I'm not bragging. I'm just saying it
costs a lot of money that night.
Speaker 7 (03:28):
He didn't win the car though.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
I just want to point you from your from your
point of view, you owe me more money I do.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
I do. That's fair. That's fair, and you will get
you know, it will be a windfall of cash when
you get married again.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Getting married again, if you again, I'm going to enforce
you now.
Speaker 6 (03:45):
You need to do a wedding vowel renewal so that
he can pay you again.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Yeah, okay, this is my point. Doesn't it sounary diculous?
I'm saying this to someone. I think it does. I
think it's really rude to say, you know what, you
came to my wedding, you really didn't give a lot.
I really think you you give me more, because that's
the same thing you're saying, though, Isn't it exactly.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
What I'm just talking about?
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Second marriages? They're just like, you're really cashing in on you.
I'm just saying second third marriages, a third marriage, you're
gonna give the same amount you get it for the
first one.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Okay, all right, all right to say it? Uh, Danielle,
what's on your mind today? Bring it on.
Speaker 5 (04:17):
So last night, my sister threw a little karaoke night.
H Yes, it was a Tuesday, but we did it anyway,
with drinks and with food, and we all had to
dress as one of our favorite musical icons female musical icons.
I chose Amy winehouse. I'm gonna post the pictures in
a few minutes. And last night Chare showed up, Britney Spears,
(04:38):
Avril Avine, Taylor Swift, read but Dolly Gaga, Madonna, Sia,
Janet Jackson. They were all in the house singing their
karaoke best. I know a lot of times we say, oh,
it's a Tuesday, I don't want to go I don't
want to go out. You never know what's gonna happen
and how much fun you're gonna have. I had the
best time. So go out on that Tuesday night and
have a blast. Thanks to my sister and to Mota
(05:02):
for throwing this fabulous karaoke party. My poor sister, And
how's getting out of the damn bed this morning with
three kids?
Speaker 1 (05:07):
But God bless her. You know what, Danielle, we always do.
We always drag as we always survive. It's good to
go out, have fun. Good for you. I'm heading for you,
so fun. Let's see, oh straight and eight, what's up
with you?
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Okay?
Speaker 7 (05:18):
So I don't care if you're twenty five, fifty five,
or seventy five. The advice I'm about to give you
applies no matter what age you are. You never really
figure it out. No matter how old you get, you
never really have the world figured out. I know when
you're young, you're like, oh, once i'm older, it's all
gonna make sense.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Never really does.
Speaker 7 (05:35):
You just kind of always go through life and you're
always perpetually figuring it out. That is okay, just keep
that in mind. You never really have it figured out.
You just kind of find your way. It never fully clicks.
You just kind of figure it out, you know.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
But even when you figure it out, you know, the
figure it out exactly right, exactly all right? So why
bother just slither through the world. Yeah, it doesn't even
pay attention to anything. That's my motto. I like that.
That's very good. Thank you, Nate. Hey, Froggy, what's up
with you today?
Speaker 4 (06:06):
So I al was doing talking about food and everything else.
There is usually the pizza argument, like everybody, if somebody
has a pizza that they love, they'll argue with you
about which pizza is the best. Well, last time I
had the barbecue argument. And I was talking about how
I love North Carolina barbecue because that's where I'm from,
It's what I grew up eating.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
And man, did I get blasted that.
Speaker 4 (06:26):
I was told that Texas barbecue and actually even the
Saint Louis Kansas City barbecue is actually better than any
other barbecue. It is superior. So I wanted to ask you,
because I've never had Saint Louis or Kansas City barbecue,
is that better than North Carolina or Texas barbecue.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Look, I'm from Texas and people expect me to say
a certain thing. I'll tell you right now. You put
any barbecue from anywhere in front of me. If it's good,
I'm gonna love it. I love barbecue from all points
of barbecue interests in the world I'm in. So I
cannot answer that. But there are people who will tell
you that barbecue is the best.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
It's wild. I mean, barbecue is one of those things.
It's like pizza. They will argue their region, what they believe,
what they like, and you know what, I'm like you,
I kind of like it all.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Well, you know, we're supposed to be We're expected to
be pizza snobs here in New York and you know whatever.
I was in the mall yesterday and yeah, I did
stop by the California Pizza Kitchen almost walked in and
ordered a barbecue chicken pizza to go because I love
those so much. Exactly know what I'm talking about. It's,
you know, basically sugar and chicken on a pelt of pizza, candy, sauce.
(07:29):
It's one of my best. But you know what, if
you're a purest with pizza New York City, you would
turn your nose up at me and go, yeah, yeah, please,
I love it yep, So we can argue about that too.
Anyone else into the barbecue chicken pizza pizza kitchen, I
love it too.
Speaker 5 (07:45):
Most pizza I don't throw out the bed, so wow.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
What a great place to have pizza. I agree with
that too, Hey, Preducer Sam, what's up with you? All right?
Speaker 7 (07:52):
So?
Speaker 8 (07:52):
I mentioned last week that I started taking sauca lessons
with my husband, and it's a group activities. So there's
one instructor and a bunch of people who show up,
and in that group there are several people who are
just there solo. They didn't bring a partner. And I
know a lot of people need to hear this, especially
mister Jones in this room, but I want to point
out how you are really perceived by other people when
you are doing activities that are usually together alone. Those
(08:15):
people are so freaking cool to me.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Those people in the salsa class who showed.
Speaker 8 (08:19):
Up without a partner just to learn and kind of
dance with whomever's there, like me and my husband are
just like we admire them so much. I think it's
so great to do something and not let having a
partner or not stop you from doing something. So I
just want to remind anyone out there who wants to
try in activity or go do something but they feel
embarrassed because they don't have a partner. You are looked at,
I think as being way cooler and way more badass.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
What's so cool?
Speaker 8 (08:43):
There's nothing embarrassing about it. So scared, go have dinner alone,
Go enjoy it, and keep doing activities by yourself. I
think it's really cool.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Well see, let me make a note here, Sam and
will open relationship. I said, salsa not swing class. All right, hey,
you all right?
Speaker 6 (09:02):
Today is Wednesday, so it's podcast day. If you want
to go listen to a new episode of Sauce on
the Side. Wherever you get your podcast. We like the
iHeartRadio app. But I was having a conversation with one
of my friends the other day and we discovered one
of the coolest things. We sent each other a ten
song playlist that we thought summarized our lives, not of
each other. So I sent ten songs I thought summarized
(09:23):
my life. She sent ten she thought summarized her life.
We both listened to them, and it just opened up
a whole new window of communication and questions and getting
to know each other. And she's one of my best
friends in the entire world. But I found out so
much about her because of this playlist. So if you're
in a relationship, if you think you know somebody asked
them to send you their ten song playlists about their life,
(09:44):
and I think you'll be very surprised.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
It was great. I loved it. Wow, did you do
you want to share one or two from yours?
Speaker 6 (09:51):
I'll share a couple from mine.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Sure.
Speaker 6 (09:53):
I really like Wildflowers by Tom Petty. I love Just
Around the River Bend from Pocahontas, And yeah, there are
a bunch of other ones on there. Myself.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Wow, I never thought of that. That's so cool. The
songs that are obviously very important to you, they're on
your list. Yeah, they describe the essence of you in
some cases.
Speaker 6 (10:11):
Maybe, Yeah, and then you know, with her, she sent
some that opened this door to a part of her
life in middle school that I didn't even know happened
or existed, and I was like, WHOA, wow, this is amazing.
So yeah, I just urge all of you to try
to do it with somebody that you love today and
see what that sparks in conversation.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
It takes effort, but sometimes you must put effort into
things if you want to grow. I get it.
