Today's Daily Highlight from Elvis Duran in the morning show.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Diamond Hi Diamond posted an interesting question to me, and
I gave her an answer. I don't know if you
were satisfied with my answer. Maybe we're looking for something
more explosive. But go ahead and give it to everyone listening.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
Okay, if you knew that you were going to die tomorrow,
what would you do today?
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Oh? It does. It is good to think about for
a moment, rather than going, Oh, I'll go to KFC
get some chicken. I'll get a bucket of chicken. Well,
maybe there's more to it. If you're going to die tomorrow,
you knew we're going to die tomorrow, what would you
do today? Damn? It's not the happiest of questions.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
But I'd go and eat the food that I'm allergic
to if I want to die anyway.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
So you know me debating, Well, so do you really
want to spend your last hours on earth just in pain?
Speaker 3 (00:55):
No? But the past few years I've spent in pain
because I watched people eat Chinese food. Can't eat it.
I listen to you talk every summer about how good
corn is, can't have it? You know that's painful.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Okay. All right, so you're dying tomorrow, go eat corn today, yep, Okay, yes, scary.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
I would take everybody in my orbit and I would
pay for a flight down to a place and we
would jump on a yacht and just ball out. With
all the money that I have in my bank account,
I would blow every last night.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
Well, okay, you gotta get that done by tomorrow.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
I can get it done by tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
I can have a private jet waiting and everything. Yeah,
private jets for everyone. Okay, all right, if you have
a lot of money, Froggy, you're dying tomorrow, Froggy, what
are you doing today? I would take my son and
go play some totally crazy, out of the world expensive
golf course. Yeah, but you gotta get there because you
gotta be there because you're gonna dout. Au Fine, that
means you may die on the golf course. I'll figure
it out. That's fine, Okay. It's not a bad place
(01:50):
to go. Uh, Danielle.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
You know it's kind of crazy because I don't know
if I would do anything that's I really would just
want to make sure I got to spend my last
moments with the boys, with my husband and my kids absolutely,
and so I don't know if I really would care
what I was doing as long as I knew I
could be with them because I wasn't going to be
with them anymore, which is a weird dull.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
I don't think it's weird at all. No, I don't.
This is not the most pleasant of things. But what
about you, Gandhi?
Speaker 5 (02:15):
I think it would be something similar to skaries. I
would want to throw a giant party with everybody that
I loved. I would like it to be the whole
day and have a really good time, and I would
like to be able to share with them how much
I love them and the things that were important to
me about them, and tell them to not be sad.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
All right, Nate, go similar to what pretty much everybody said,
it's been it with my family, my friends, and then
just go to this beautiful spot where right before I go, oh,
it would be the most beautiful thing, you know, just
tell me, all right, well here's mine. It's not the
happiest one. Well, I think I think, you know, getting
some private jets and balling out it sounds great at all.
(02:53):
I would I would write some notes, maybe do a
couple of you know, voice messages, whatever voice notes, send them.
And then I would go up by myself. I wouldn't
go with anyone else and just think about my life.
I'm think about what I did, what I did right,
what I did wrong? Just think about it. I just
(03:14):
want to be with me selfish. Maybe oh, he could
have spent his last day with us? Why does it?
Doesn't he love us? Yeah? I love you? But it's done.
You know it's done.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
It's like when dogs wander off into the woods.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Yeah, yeah, go hide under it, go hide under a rock. No,
But I just want to think. I just want to
think about it. I want to process it. It's it's
it's the closing scene in the film. It's the last
chapter of the book. That's it. That's that's it, and
that's that's it. And right there. Plus, when you die,
don't you lose control of your bowels?
Speaker 3 (03:45):
Not always.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
I wouldn't want my family around for that, Like, are
you trying to make my last day funny? Are you?
Are you really trying to crap all over my last day? Literally? No,
when you die, I think that's what happens. I don't
know if I want my family to that happened. That happens.
Then I made choose you like for a chair old
sparky they call it down in Texas. God, No, I mean,
(04:08):
I just want to go sit. I see your point.
I just want to go sit on a mountain and
just think my last five minutes. I want to be alone,
to stay with all. Right. Well, then then and crap yourself.
That's what happens. I'm not saying you're dony to do
it on purpose on your own this afternoon. You don't
have to die. I'm crapping myself as we speak. You
don't do it before you die. When you die, then
you do. I don't convince it's always the case. You
(04:30):
crack yourself. I thought it was okay, well, losing faculties,
it's what happens. I just want to go think. I
want to think about what it did. That's it. It's
it's it's the end. I did it. I had a
great life. I did great things for people, people did
great things for me. That's it. Being a pretty spot though, right,
not like staring at a wall in your kitchen, Nate,
(04:54):
I think you give another couch being delivery. I'm gonna
go to go to the park. I'm going to sit
on a mountain of some sort. Look at it, look out.
All right, there you go. I'm sorry we had this conversation.
Provoked it. I'm gonna trying not to crap my pants
because you know what happens. I'm not saying people pee
(05:16):
and pooh. It's a very much thing. That's what happens.
You die and you lose control of your smooth They're
not all.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
That.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
We are filled.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
This is not true.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
We are filled with sphincter. In an episode of South Park. Absolutely,
I get it. Now, what does it say?
Speaker 5 (05:33):
It says, no, you don't always poop or pee yourself
when you die. It can happen as muscles relax, but
it is certainly not guaranteed.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
There you go.
Speaker 4 (05:43):
Then I want to be from my worst enemy.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
At that point, I'm gonna crap on my my art's nemesis.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
Why did you go out?
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Crap on? Okay, okay, thinking about that, don't say the
name out loud. Who are you going to crap on?
When you're done? Hi? Why are you in my office?
Well I'm about to go. If you know what I'm saying?
All right, all right, Oh my goodness, it's a wrong
(06:17):
with us. I don't know, so I guess you know.
The deeper thought is that what are you doing in
your life that's worthy of reflection when your life is done?
Are you doing enough? Never? Never? Enough? Maybe? All right,
we let's hope this doesn't happen. I'm thinking, let's just
pretend we're going to pass away tomorrow. Just start crapping
all over people. Can I sit on your lap real quick?
(06:40):
I said, sit on my lap,
