Speaker 1 (00:01):
Let's play a game with Elvis dran in the Morning Show.
Are you likable?

Speaker 2 (00:07):
I think?

Speaker 1 (00:07):
Are you likable?

Speaker 2 (00:08):
I think it depends who you ask? Honestly?

Speaker 3 (00:12):
Are we?

Speaker 1 (00:13):
Are we likable people? I mean it's easy for us
to say we're likable? Scary, Yes, we are likable. We're lovable.
Are you likable? Straightening? Oh? Extremely kidding me? Okay, there
you go? What about you, producer Sam? Are you a
likable person?

Speaker 2 (00:29):
I feel like I'm either likable or it's a day
where everyone will hate me.

Speaker 4 (00:32):
I swing real hard one way or the other.

Speaker 1 (00:35):
So we were stumbling around online, h gandhi me. We
found this list the seven social micro habits that demolish
your likability? Dare we lock into this? I'm afraid? Do
we have music for this? Scary? Yes, there's gotta be
an Are you likable?

Speaker 5 (00:54):
Bed? Of course?

Speaker 1 (00:55):
But think about it? Are you a likable person? Of
course you're gonna say yes. Who's gonna say no? I'm
not very likable?

Speaker 4 (01:00):
You never know? Somebody head?

Speaker 1 (01:02):
I mean sometimes I know I'm not. All right. It's
now time for are you liking?

Speaker 5 (01:09):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:10):
Are you likable? Where'd you get this? Is it from?

Speaker 4 (01:18):
Where?

Speaker 2 (01:18):
I'm not sure which one you're looking at. One is
from Medium and one is from Forbes.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
Which one do you like better? One?

Speaker 2 (01:23):
I think Forbes one is actually better. Let me go
to that one because I think that might make all
of us think.

Speaker 6 (01:27):
A little bit.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
Oh really, okay, nine things? Oh my god, it used
to be seven things. Now this one's nine things. I
love all these articles coming up to prove that we're
all unlikable. Yeah, okay from Forbes. Number one, humble bragging. Yeah,
talk about it.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
So it's stuff like, you know, oh, I'm so skinny,
these pants are just falling off me. I can't take it.

Speaker 4 (01:50):
It's so hard.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
That makes you unlikable?

Speaker 2 (01:53):
Yeah right, you know the humble brag.

Speaker 1 (01:55):
Yeah, it's terrible. God, you know what, We're trying to
go to the Cape this weekend to play touch football
with the Kennedy's and uh, that's stupid, Cessna. I can't
get it started.

Speaker 5 (02:08):
So hard I find a big enough place to park
our yacht, so we're not going to be able to
do That makes you unlikable.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
Humble bragging Number two being too serious.

Speaker 4 (02:17):
Absolutely.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
I mean, especially if you are one of those people
who makes fun of other people and you joke around
and then the joke comes back to you and you
can't take it.

Speaker 1 (02:24):
That's the and people who just don't laugh or don't
enjoy things just too serious.

Speaker 2 (02:33):
I had a friend once tell me I just don't
like comedy, and I still don't understand it. I don't
understand how people don't enjoy laughing. But I guess there's
you know, a whole bunch out there.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
Uh. Not asking enough questions makes you unlikable, So that
guess that means you know all the answers, so you
don't ask any questions, or.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
You spend a lot of time talking about yourself.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
Right, is there one someone I think I want to here?
Is so far pretty likable? Okay, yeah, it's good except
for Nate a little bit.

Speaker 4 (03:00):
Well, Nate does do the humble rag. It's so hard
being this hot, ripping through my sleep.

Speaker 1 (03:05):
You do that on my appearance, not my accomplish. Emotional
hijackings makes you unlikable, right.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
So, emotional hijacking is if there's a situation that might
not be very likable to you and you immediately lose
your cool. You start crying, you start screaming, you're throwing things,
you're really taking away from the moment of whatever is happening,
because now it's about your emotion.

Speaker 1 (03:31):
I think I'll take that one. That's me.

Speaker 4 (03:32):
You're an emotional hijacking.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
I'm an emotional I have seen you throw a microwave.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
Oh, another thing makes you unlikable, Danielle. Whipping out your.

Speaker 6 (03:42):
Phone, Danielle, let me whip that out.

Speaker 1 (03:46):
You had already pre whipped before I read that. That
one I did. Yeah, whipping out your phone.

Speaker 6 (03:50):
I mean, especially like at the dinner table and stuff
like that, Like that drives me crazy.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
Yeah. I think sometimes we're all a little guilty of Ye.
Like the other day I was having a dinner with
friends and I was the only one that had the
phone on the table, and I was like, and I
slowly my hand came up from below the table and
stow it takes out in my pocket.

Speaker 2 (04:11):
You have scary over here who if you're ever eating
with him, he will yell as soon as the food
comes down, phone eats first.

Speaker 4 (04:17):
The phone eats first, and he has to take pictures.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
Are you serious? Yeah, I've never experienced this. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (04:26):
Wait, wait, I don't want you to put a fork
in anything, because it's going to ruin the aesthetics of
the photo. So I'm like phone eats.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
You're not taking pictures of my food? Yes, no, that's no,
that's mine. You line all the dishes up in the
middle and you do a little sweet god, what at
what year in your life are you gonna do something
with all these photos of lasagna? I mean, what are
you gonna do with them?

Speaker 3 (04:48):
No that I post it and I document what the
dish was, and people like, oh that looks good.

Speaker 4 (04:52):
He gets free food, is what he does.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
It doesn't know.

Speaker 3 (04:55):
He never results in free ever.

Speaker 1 (04:56):
Have you guy seen him do this?

Speaker 4 (04:57):
Absolutely? But sometimes I get free food because he he's buying.
So I'm fine.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
But I mean, if you start reaching with a fork,
scary will slap it out of your hand.

Speaker 1 (05:08):
I never, Oh god, scary. Very unlikable. Another thing that
makes you unlikable name dropping.

Speaker 2 (05:17):
Oh yeah, we know these people.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
Well, we all know people, so sometimes, you know, I
think sometimes we might be those people, not even intentionally,
but if you're talking to people about what your day
was like.

Speaker 2 (05:29):
Or you know, there's a relatable story someone's saying, like,
oh my god, you know I love Enrique Glicias. I'm
sure Froggy is going to say something about knowing Enrique Glicias,
because he does.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
But it's not like you drop his name all the time.
But a friend of mine was like, oh, I just
bought they Knew whatever truck. I said, Oh my god,
my friend Charlie Poos just bought one of those, and
as who's coming out of my mouth? I'm like, what
a papas as I am? Yeah, my friend Charlie. Maybe
I just call him charge.

Speaker 2 (05:58):
I think if we dropped the last names.

Speaker 5 (06:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
Another thing that makes you unlikable gossiping. I gotta come
back on that one. I love it when someone goes, hey,
you didn't hear it from me, But for sure I don't.
I don't find that unlikable, unlikable.

Speaker 2 (06:16):
I love hearing the gossip, but whenever somebody is gossiping
to me, it makes me take a step back and think, hmm,
I wonder if the things I told you are going
to other people?

Speaker 1 (06:25):
Oh no, no, absolutely no. My friends who gossip, I
do not tell them top secrets. Guaranteed. If you're you're
getting information from a gossiper, anything you say to that
gossipers gossip true exactly. So gossiping can be unlikable trait
for some The next one having a closed mind.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
Oh yeah, I refuse to accept that one.

Speaker 1 (06:47):
You know that. It kind of drives me nuts when
you go to dinner with someone and you offer them
a bite of your whatever, like, no, oh that's me.
I like that. I'm like, well, have you ever had it? No?

Speaker 4 (06:56):
And I don't want it. You in my mind and
mouth closed.

Speaker 1 (07:01):
If you've never had it, you know you don't like it.
I just do. Okay. Maybe you can be closed minded
about many things in addition to food. But if someone's
not able to open their mind and just maybe toy
with another way of looking at something, come on, it's
okay to change it up a little bit.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
Even just the way you pitch it. It could be different,
you know. Instead of somebody being like whatever, which we
all do, don't get me wrong, maybe could just be like,
you know what, I'm allergic that's my thing.

Speaker 4 (07:31):
I'm allergic to fish.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
But you're not.

Speaker 2 (07:34):
Everything from the sea, Daniel.

Speaker 1 (07:36):
You're not allergic to it, though. It's a different thing.

Speaker 4 (07:39):
Breakout knives.

Speaker 1 (07:41):
Unlikable if you share too much too early. Yes, hey,
how many times have you seen those self help memes
that roll by? And a lot of them are stop
talking about yourself, Stop giving people all your information. Have
a little bit of privacy in your life, privately.

Speaker 4 (07:57):
Our friends Charlie Pooth.

Speaker 6 (08:00):
He has a song out about that, saying, Charlie, be quiet,
don't make a sound, because he's he gives too He's
like that, he gives you too much information, tells you
how much he cares about you too soon, and he
needs to comment.

Speaker 4 (08:10):
You know, our friend Charlie.

Speaker 1 (08:11):
Yeah, oh Charlie poo Yeah. Scariest that he wants to
add one.

Speaker 5 (08:15):
What do you want?

Speaker 3 (08:17):
Well, I don't know what you'd call it, but if
you're announcing that you did something great or whatever it is,
and then somebody jumps in to play top that and
they did it already and they did it better, I
love to give you better.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
I love to play top that. They up your experience
and don't that's for me.

Speaker 4 (08:33):
I'm sitting here telling something.

Speaker 3 (08:34):
Then you jump in like and you just kind of
like overshadow me like that.

Speaker 1 (08:38):
I hate that. Yeah, well, I live. I live for that.

Speaker 3 (08:45):
You do not.

Speaker 1 (08:46):
I do see a lot of times and I and
I'm guilty of this. I'm sure some of us are.
If someone says, oh my God, we had the best
meal last night at this restaurant. Blah blah blah. You
can just leave it at that, or I'm like, oh,
thinking I'm sounding really Oh my god, we had a
meal in next door to that place, which was great.

Speaker 6 (09:04):
I feel like I do that too, because I think,
oh my god, that's maybe you don't mean it that way,
but sometimes I think it might come across that way,
but you may.

Speaker 5 (09:12):
I think that's relatable.

Speaker 1 (09:13):
That's not one now, Nate.

Speaker 5 (09:14):
I'm sure Nate's had this medical one upping somebody. You know,
I had a stroke. Oh, I had three.

Speaker 4 (09:24):
That's what I don't want to one up.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
I don't know. I feel like you're allowed to want
up people in the whole medical world, right, but somebody
goes like froggy. If somebody goes, oh, man, I had
the worst migraine you can come back with I had
an aneurysm, right exactly. The point of that is your
problems aren't problems like the one. I'm sorry. The medical

(09:49):
thing is okay. There is a backwards way to there's
a way that could backfire you. For instance, before thank
you God, before Alex was uh proclaimed can't for free?
If ever, I had a headache or any body problem.
I would never even I didn't want to talk about
it because I'm like, god, you know, my left ankle

(10:10):
is really hurting today. Well, he could easily say, well
I have cancer.

Speaker 2 (10:14):
Right, But if you had a tumor in your ankle
and you didn't say anything about it because you were
worried that somebody else had cancer, and now you a full.

Speaker 1 (10:20):
Cancer, that's how I can like one up cancer, Okay,
your us.

Speaker 3 (10:23):
You should never be minimalized, raised by whatever the next
person has to sell.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
Well, I know, but if someone has cancer, I will
let them. I will let them win that rounde cancer,
strokes win, yeah, strokes, aneurysms, cancer.

Speaker 2 (10:40):
Wait, so Nate, we know Danielle has bad migraines. Yeah
they're bad. And still come in and be like, I
have a migraine, I took a pill.

Speaker 4 (10:45):
Do you in your head things?

Speaker 1 (10:46):
Shut up? Daniel I had two strokes, I will say, cancer,
shut up. I will say with the second stroke was
it will put any of your mind greens to share.
But that doesn't less like rubbing your face in it.

Speaker 4 (11:04):
You are.

Speaker 5 (11:06):
It's also the equivalent of you know, there's people who
have it a lot worse than you.

Speaker 1 (11:10):
I don't care, dude. That's when you should come out
to say, no, they don't. No, I have it worse
than everyone can buy. Everybody Planet does.

Speaker 4 (11:19):
Do a lot.

Speaker 2 (11:20):
You'll be telling him something and he just looks at
you and goes.

Speaker 1 (11:26):
Sometimes, yeah, sometimes you're probably people's problems in general, not
just specifically. Are just like, that's not a problem. Wait,
but what you said to me last week about my foot.
You remember what you said about my foot because my ankle,
my ankle is really messed up. And he says, I
hope it. I hope they have to amputate it.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
He wants you to have a peg leg because saying
something like that, because he's an ass.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
This ties back to remember when you had the you
had the retina detaching, yes, and we were joking that
you needed an iPad. Yes, this is going back to
you being the pirate thief. And I'm still trying to
tie it back to that because you remember that one time.
This is a lamest excuse me. We were joking that
you were you would have to have an eyepatch and
somebody texted in and said, well, someone with one eye.

(12:11):
I take offense to this. I'm god, like you think
somebody with one eye would have a sense of human Okay,
thank you, that was Nate.

Speaker 4 (12:20):
Don't get the correlation.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
Let's go outside the circle and talk to Annie.

Speaker 3 (12:24):
Hello, Annie, Hi, good morning.

Speaker 1 (12:28):

Speaker 1 (12:42):
So halfway to work, you left the house feeling good.
Now you're about to get to work. Now you feel unlikable?
Is that what you're sound so good? Now?

Speaker 2 (12:50):

You have to hear with twenty one of my kids.

Speaker 5 (13:00):

Speaker 6 (13:02):
I'm trying to you.

Speaker 5 (13:03):
I'm not trying to want you. You're not You're not
a bad person. And no, there's a fine line in
relating and one upping and where is that line? That's
that's what's difficult, right.

Speaker 4 (13:14):
It's so thin.

Speaker 6 (13:16):
You're right, thank you, And I'm listening to this and
I'm going, yeah, I do this, and then I heard
the topic of the conversation and I just went.

Speaker 2 (13:26):
That that is emotionally hijacking our conversation.

Speaker 6 (13:32):
What you did everything on the list.

Speaker 1 (13:34):
I was having a great day. To you emotionally hijacked
our conversation, and I have a beautiful day. Thank you
for being a teacher. We love you, Thank you, love
you too. Sorry trigger. Oh well, uh so in closing, uh,
don't be a jerk.

Speaker 4 (13:53):

The Jonahs brothers usually tell me stop being a jerk.
