Speaker 1 (00:01):
Today's Daily Highlight from Elvis Duran in the Morning Show.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
I've been amazed at this for years.
Speaker 3 (00:07):
If you're familiar with the New York City, New Jersey area,
you know that there's just a river, just a little river,
between New York City and the state of New Jersey,
right the Hudson River. I met people when I first
moved to New York thirty something years ago who lived
in Jersey City right on the water, looking at Manhattan,
who had had not been into Manhattan in over twenty years.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
They just said, we don't need to go over there.
Everything we need is right here on this side of
the river in Jersey. We don't need New York City.
New York City is at paying the ass, it's dirty, whatever,
And I was always amazed at that. I read this
this morning that five percent of American adults have never
visited another US state.
Speaker 4 (00:52):
Wow, okay, wow, yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
And I guess, okay, that means ninety five percent have,
which is the majority, of course, but five percent is
still a lot of people who, forever reason, whatever reason,
have not left the state. And I'm like, well, why
is that? So I started reading deeper. Sixteen percent of
Americans adults, they've been to thirty or more states. Have
(01:15):
you ever done the state thing where you yes, see
how many states you've been to?
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Yes? I love that.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
They say it's most people twenty percent. Anyway, a lot
of people say it's very important to visit a large
number of number of states within their lifetime. Thirty five
percent say it's somewhat important. So there are people who
are really into travel getting out. The most visited states are,
of course, Florida, New York, Texas, and California. The least
where Alaska, North Dakota, Vermont, and Montana.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Alaska should be high on the list that you need
to go to Alaska, it is so beautiful.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
But look at that list.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
The least visited states are Alaska, in Vermont, and Montana,
three of the most beautiful Yeah, three of the most
beautiful states. Maybe it's because no one's visiting.
Speaker 4 (02:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
God is incredible too. People are keeping it clean. That's
what all those people coming to New York and beat
the hell out of us. It's okay.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
I hear awesome things about Maine and it's so close
and I've never been, so I'm gonna try and do
a trip to Maine.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Who's in. I'm in. I'd love to go.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
And this is another thing about the Northeast. When I
moved from Texas, where you know you have to get
in your car and drive for four hours is to
get to your bathroom.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Because it's all spread out in the Northeast.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
You can be on a train from Philly to New
York or New York Philly and you're you're in this incredible,
historically significant city in an hour. Yeah, and I know
many people who've never been to Philly living in New
York and Philadelphi, people who never come to New York.
I'd be going to Boston. I'd be going going up
the East coast to New England. You know, there's Washington,
(02:51):
d C. All the most interesting, some of the most
interesting cities in the country are within an hour and
a half or two hours of each other.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Ye people aren't going.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
I think we should stop telling people about Montana. It's
just so perfect. I don't want it to get invaded.
That's where Glacier National parkers.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
I know there's a lot to see that so but
as I said, maybe they are still still pristine and
beautiful because no one goes well, a lot of people.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Do go, don't get me wrong, but not like New York.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
In California and Florida, it's shy, what tough of what?
Speaker 4 (03:24):
Well, it's just because so there's so much to see
in the world and all I want to do is
travel and see all of it. And then I look
at what tourism is doing to like so many of
these places, and I think, I don't want to go there.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
But you're not doing it.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
You're you respect where you go, so you're different.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Oh, yes, that is it.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
But you see, for instance, in Spain, they have signs up,
they have graffiti on the wall saying Americans go away,
Travelers go away.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
We don't want tourists because tourism is on their nerves.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
People that live there, they think that there their way
of living is being encroached by you know, crazy Americans.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
But I feel like a lot of places wouldn't survive
without the tourism.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
They would, of course not, they.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
Wouldn't remember in Spain when they had the squirt guns,
they were shooting everybody with get out of here turs.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
It's true.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
So yeah, we encourage if you can go to one
of these states that's.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
So pristine, we'll ruin them head on over.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Hey, you made an announcement a few moments ago, Danielle
about FIFA.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Yes, and there was a little tweak. Yes.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
What's happening is, by the way, our iHeartRadio partner's Global Citizen.
Along with FIFA, they've announced that Jay Balvin, Dojakat and
Thames will headline the first ever FIFA Club World Cup
halftime show and is curated by Chris Martin of Coldplay.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Yes, so awesome. So it's not the World Cup final
that's happening next year twenty twenty six. This is this year,
July thirteenth, And I think somebody in this room has
tickets for that show.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Yes, I'm going. I'm gonna be there. Wow, so cool.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
That's gonna be amazing.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
A really good friend from New Mexico who was a
huge fo Or soccer fan, says, Hey, I'm coming to
New York. You got to take me to the FIFA
Club World Cup half World Club Cup game. I mean, okay,
so I got tickets for like six of us. We
have we have a box with the cocktails everything. And
then you said, wait a minute, Elvis, aren't you going
(05:17):
to be there for the j Balvin doja Catime Show one. Yeah,
we are going to be there for that. I'm so excited.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Is a MetLife stadium.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
We're going to be there. Absolutely. That's awesome.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
So, by the way, if you're wondering about this partnership
with Global Global Citizen and iHeart has been partners with
them for years and FIFA, now how more worldwide can
you be? A dollar from every ticket sold to the
FIFA Club World Cup twenty twenty five matches in the
US this summer will be donated to the FIFA Global
(05:50):
Citizen Education Fund.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
How you like that?
Speaker 1 (05:52):
That's awesome.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
They were reasonably one hundred million dollars for this thing.
And FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund is such a great idea.
And I remember when soccer we'll call it first started
becoming somewhat hot in the US, and of course Danielle
was all over it like stink in the cat.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
Boss, stink of the guy. That's because I live with
the soccer craziness in my house. It's football craziness in
my house.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
It's fantastic. Now I have more and more friends, our
friends that come forth tose they are such big, huge
Napoli fans. And we have my other friend Chico. He
loves anything from South America or Mexico, you know, those
those teams.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
It's such a wonderful global thing.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Yep. And to be able to merge it with Global Citizen,
an incredible organization as well. It's this is a cool thing.
I think football, soccer is a great thing for all
of us, for the entire world.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
As growing up as a kid in the Bronx, we
didn't have soccer. We didn't have football. We played baseball,
play basketball, you know, played you know, you know, that's it.
We This was not we That wasn't a thing. You
didn't take soccer lessons, nothing like that. Now it is
so amazing how it is taking over. I'm finally being
embraced and giving. It's given its day and I love
it so much. It's wonderful. And they're actually bringing American
(07:06):
football to a lot of the European countries now, I
know the UK just started getting American football, you know,
so it's interesting.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Yeah, I love what's going on here. It's it's so cool,
it's a positive. It's a great thing. So by the way,
as I said, I announced that halftime on the thirteenth
of July will be j Balvin and Thames And who
is Theodoga Kue
