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 around the room. We're in a room.

Speaker 3 (00:08):
Let's go around. We'll start with Danielle. What's on your
mind today?

Speaker 4 (00:11):
So do you guys follow mouse Trap News on Instagram?

Speaker 1 (00:14):
Oh no, so it's a fake. It's it's Disney news,
but it's never real. So, like, I'll give you an example.
They have a new Disney on ice exhibit. It's Walt
Disney himself on ice his body and they have a
picture of him there and people coming to visit. Another
one is what Happens And it's a small world. When
it's the end of the day, all of the little

(00:35):
animatronic guys come to life. I knew it and start
doing things. So it's not real, but it's so funny
the stuff they come up with. So it's called mouse
Trap News. If you want to follow it on Instagram
makes me chuckle.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (00:47):
If you're a Disney fanily freak like me, absolutely hate
producer Sam. What's up?

Speaker 2 (00:51):
Okay?

Speaker 5 (00:52):
If you're in a relationship like mine, one of you
likes to decorate for the holidays and the other one
has a very rigid schedule. My husband does not like
any decorations for Christmas until after Thanksgiving, which I've respected
up until this point. Here's my new rule. If you're
going to have rules about decorating, you have to decorate.
If he doesn't do a thing to help me set

(01:12):
up for Thanksgiving or break down the decoration, he doesn't
get a say and when it's happening. And when I
told him that, he nodded his head and he said,
decorate when you want.

Speaker 2 (01:20):
That's not little. He wants to decorate.

Speaker 5 (01:22):
So if you're in a relationship like mine, that's how
you win that one.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
There you go. You have to.

Speaker 3 (01:26):
Here' participating and then get out of here. No say scary,
what's up?

Speaker 6 (01:30):
People have been jumping on my back and making me
feel guilty about getting out of town for my vacation
when my girlfriend doesn't have the amount of vacation that
I do. She gets about half the amount that I do.
So the other half am I supposed to just sit
around and hang around the area and not go on
vacation and not see more of the world.

Speaker 5 (01:50):
No travel?

Speaker 4 (01:51):
Travelay?

Speaker 3 (01:52):
What does you do?

Speaker 2 (01:52):
What you want to do?

Speaker 3 (01:53):
And don't listen to what people tell you what they.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
Think you should do you know you're right? That's that's
a lesson for today.

Speaker 6 (01:58):
I'm gonna stop caring because because outside of this room
and what you guys told me, everyone is like, no,
you should just stay home because she can't. She can't have,
you know, the vacation days that you have, so you
should be able to sit there and well wallow in
your own way.

Speaker 7 (02:12):
Hold on, does she want you to go have fun?
She does, but she has restrictions. She wants me to
go see places that she doesn't care about, like Munich
and Poland. No offense to Munich and Poland, but she's
they're not high on her list. But but I have
to save Greece and Japan for her.

Speaker 4 (02:30):
And she wants to go to those. She wants those
moments for, you know, together do that.

Speaker 6 (02:35):
I'll do that, But I'm not gonna feel guilty about
getting out of town.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
While she should. You, oh, you do what you want
to do.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
You know.

Speaker 8 (02:43):
My dog's a piggy little prick. I'll tell you what, Okay,
So he he gets these normal treats. Then when he
goes outside to go, he goes pete. But every now
and then he'll go if he goes outside or We
just give him little special treats every now and then. Well,
he got a little too many of the special treats.
He will not eat any of the little regular ones
that he used to eat all the time.

Speaker 2 (03:01):
He will not. He will you give it to him.
He spits it out of his mouth.

Speaker 8 (03:04):
Book and I'm like no, So I told Lisa just
leave it on the floor long enough, he'll eventually eat it.
There are three days where the treats laying.

Speaker 2 (03:13):
On the floor. He will wow eat it. He won't.
He's waiting on the good kind. He's person.

Speaker 9 (03:18):
I like it.

Speaker 2 (03:19):
He's a little picky, little douche, really upset.

Speaker 4 (03:21):
Well, you spoiled him, that's what you did.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
Just eat the crummy ones. You're going to get a
good one. They do that.

Speaker 3 (03:28):
My dogs do the same thing. No, I love them.
He needs over them every night.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
He's teaching me. I'm not teaching him anything. What's up?

Speaker 3 (03:35):
Scotta beat?

Speaker 5 (03:36):
Oh?

Speaker 10 (03:36):
So I need your help because you all know that
I'm a creature of habit and it's I'm very anxious
now because the parking garage that we park in has
been open for twenty four hours since we started working here.
All of a sudden, now they're not opening until five am.
You guys know that I have gp ass. I pull
him to the garage every morning at four fifty eight

(03:56):
and I'm on the bowl by five oh one. So
it could be a problem if for whatever reason the
guy is late. Like, I don't know what to do.
I'm very nervous about the first day that they're going
to be open at five am because I feel like
I might poop in my car up.

Speaker 4 (04:10):
That's a problems. Flexibility.

Speaker 3 (04:13):
Yeah, yeah, she's right. You need you need to be
flexible or just pooting the car.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
Let it.

Speaker 3 (04:16):
Let's done. I'm just done hearing about it. Just put
in the car, have a.

Speaker 4 (04:21):
Chat with your ass, and just you know, talk to it.

Speaker 10 (04:23):
I'm just tell I'm very nervous.

Speaker 3 (04:25):
You'll be fine. I think you're making it such a
big deal out of it.

Speaker 7 (04:28):
You do this.

Speaker 3 (04:29):
You love to make big deals out of everything that
is so easy to solve.

Speaker 10 (04:33):
I'm sweating right now thinking about it. I'm very regimented.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
You know that I do.

Speaker 10 (04:37):
Okay, So I'm just I'm hoping all goes well and
nobody's ever late.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (04:42):
Uh And now, Gandhi, I save you for last because
you're gonna make some sense out of all this, aren't you?

Speaker 9 (04:47):
Maybe I need you to help me settle a little
debate between Sam and I. So you know, obviously, Elvis,
when you're here, we order breakfast. Breakfast comes to us,
no problem. When you're not here, sometimes we still order
breakfast and somebody has to go pick it up. So
who are it is? It goes and picks it up.
I will say, I'm going to pay for mine, and
I'm also going to pay for yours because you're flying,
so I'm buying. So then I was like, that's not

(05:07):
a thing. You can't do that. Do not pay me
for this. I want to stretch my legs. I said, no,
I'm you're running an errand for me. So at the
very least what I could do is buy your meal.
That's okay, right, that.

Speaker 4 (05:16):
Should be nice. Yeah, of course, thank you.

Speaker 5 (05:18):
It's super nice of you, but it makes me feel guilty.
I was going to go anyway. Plus, I'm worried that
soon you won't give me your order if you want
food because you don't want to pay extra. I just
want to know that you get food when you want it,
and I don't feel like you're obligated to pay for me.

Speaker 10 (05:33):
I volunteer to pick your breakfast up every morning.

Speaker 5 (05:35):
Never no GPS will never allow it.

Speaker 4 (05:37):
Nobody's paying for yours.

Speaker 9 (05:40):
Like lobster thermidors.

Speaker 4 (05:41):
Exactly.

Speaker 9 (05:42):
It's so sweet, it really.

Speaker 5 (05:43):
Really really is.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
Just makes me feel bad and it's not necessary.

Speaker 4 (05:45):
The way I owe you ten dollars, I'm let me
give it to you two minutes.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
It all work out. How about you paying her every
other time she goes out. That's gonna be hard to
keep up with.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
But maybe.

Speaker 9 (05:55):
But it's not always Sam that does it. Sometimes Abby
does it, sometimes, Simon does it, sometimes Andrew. So whomever
it is, I'm like, oh, I will take care of
yours too.

Speaker 3 (06:02):
See that's the problem with this place. We have a
room full of generous people.

Speaker 4 (06:05):
Yeah, there you go, except for Scotty.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
It's quite a courty except for Scotty.
