Speaker 1 (00:01):
Today's Daily Highlight from Elvis Duran in the morning show.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
I got a DM. Everyone's inmile check my dms. Not
that often. I got a DM from a listener over
the weekend. She's like, I think it's really weird that
your husband Alex posted a happy sixth anniversary post for you,
but you didn't post anything for him.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Oh what say you, Duran?
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Well, okay, first of all, I'm like, oh, he posted something.
So I went online and there it is. We were
having we're having a great brunch yesterday and Junifer Hill
out in New Jersey and he posted some nice things,
very nice, and I didn't post anything. I'm like, well,
and I said there first secondment, God, what a bad
husband I am. I didn't post something on social media.
(00:45):
And I thought about that. I'm like, what, that's stupid.
If you don't post something, that means you're not the
event isn't relevant.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
You know what, it didn't happen, It.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Didn't have it. So if it doesn't happen on social media,
it's not real. Doesn't happen? Is that what you're saying.
I guess that's stupid.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
I think that's what a lot of people think. I
don't think that's.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
The truth exactly. So I went back to look at
my posts on Instagram. The last post I have is
actually basically a repost I did on August seventh. That's
the last thing I posted. Wow. I may have had
some stories here or there, but I don't know. I
don't know what happened to them, and i'd look. So
I started looking down to my posts of late, and
there's nothing really that interesting. I mean, I don't know,
(01:29):
am I not? Am I not like a round, well
rounded person because I'm not, in fact, you're telling my
social media needs or what I don't live in your life.
You're living your real life. Yeah, okay, so there you go.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
I don't think it's a reflection of you as a person,
but it might be a reflection of your social media presence.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Okay. So that's another thing, because you know, because I've
because of what we do for a living, we are
expected to have a social media presence. Well, I'm failing
on that on that front.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
Funny, do you think would happen if you said to
the company, you know what, I've decided I'm not doing
social media anymore. What they say to you, well, it's
been nice, or would They be like, okay, no.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Problem, that's a great question, Danielle. I'm glad you asked.
So did you ask this question? No?
Speaker 1 (02:17):
I did it without asking.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Once what happened.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
I deactivated my Facebook and my Instagram account, and it
was probably an hour before I started getting calls from
our big boss and our sales team.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Hey, what's going on? Is this a problem? What happened?
And then I was like, oh, yeah, I'm just sick
of it. I don't want to be on there. Oh no,
what world? What do you mean?
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Really?
Speaker 3 (02:39):
You do understand this is a revenue for us. I
was like, no, I don't sell my Instagram health.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
I think there's a definitely something to it.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
Shoot, I didn't think about that.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
Wait a minute, hold on, Yeah, we have a big boss.
Yes we do. Well it was our.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
Program director at the time.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Yeah wow, oh okay, yeah, I need to pay attention.
I didn't. We had big bosses.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
Nobody asked me if I was doing okay. They were
just all like, what the hell are you doing?
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Right? Oh? Really? No one said oh wow, let's let's
step back and let's take a moment. Let's let this breathe.
Gandhi obviously has an issue something. There's something going on
in her life. We should investigate, we should find out
if she's okay. That wasn't the case. The big boss
didn't say, hey, what happened? How come you're on Facebook?
Speaker 1 (03:21):
No, it was something going on with your page? What's
going on?
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Do we need to get the digital a Department involved?
And I was like, no, I just got.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
The digital department. Wait, hold on, hold on, we have
a digital department. We do.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
They will be mad if you deactivate.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Yeah. I knew I heard it was a big company,
but this is crazy. This is I know. We always
we have all these incredible bells and whistles. We should
take advantage of them. Yeah all right, So posting is
not my thing. It used to be. But when I
used to post, it was never a political argument. It
was a never a whatever. It was usually like the
waffles I had for breakfast or you know something. That's
(03:56):
That's what I use social media for. So that's the thing.
People you social media in different ways that caters to
what they want from it or they want to put
out on it. That's okay. But just because you do
yours your way, doesn't mean I have to do it
mine your way. That's what's that problem. You run into
the people.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
Well, four years ago you posted about this, and you
posted about this person, and you posted about that, but
you didn't post about this, so you don't care. It's like, well,
how much time did you take the scan back four
years ago and see what I posted about this person
or that person?
Speaker 2 (04:29):
All right, well I got you people, I got you,
I caught you. Well, good for them, I guess that's
what they need in their lives to feel complete, But no,
thank you for me. I love this text. The best
quote about phones and addiction I've seen was before you
judge an addict, put your phone down for twenty four
hours and see how many times you think about it. Wow,
(04:52):
isn't that powerful? Huh? Yellow, what do you think is scary?
I think that what you were saying earlier rings true.
Speaker 6 (05:01):
You know, somebody might validate their own relationship and celebrate
anniversaries by posting it, but that doesn't mean this woman
has to.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
You know, DM you and say why didn't you post
about Alex? What are you doing?
Speaker 6 (05:12):
Why didn't you commemorate your anniversary? Because again, that might
be great for her, but you know, and you didn't
even see Alex's post for you, which means you really
are living your life.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
You pass. I think we tend to think if I'm living,
if I'm living my life, what is it I have
to show for it? Let me think about it. You
just saw it this morning live with all of us.
You're like, oh, look at that. Did you like alexix post?
Did you comment on it? Oh my god, you knew?
Oh my god, I bet they noticed that. People notice
if you don't like things, there must be a problem
(05:43):
that he's not liking his post. Really, that's the thing.
I bet.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
It's all so crazy because we're every not not everybody,
but so many people are focused on what everything looks like,
what does it look like, and not what it actually
feels like. And you're living a life that you are
con learn about what it feels like, so you don't
care about what it looks like, whereas everybody else is
just spending so much time trying to be cool, make
everybody like their stupid posts.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
How about this angle. Let's say I wake up in
the morning, I look over and there's Max and Alie,
my dogs, my two best friends, right and I you know,
I give them little some loving and we hug each
other and we cuddle with each other, and I'm like, gosh,
I really want to share this with the world. So therefore,
you know, I take a you know, I take ten
fifteen minutes to make the perfect photo of them in
(06:29):
the bed. It has to look like it's in the bed.
Got to be careful, what's in the background it, It's
got to look great. And I use the filter to
add somewhere red to this red thing over here, and
then I post it to let the world know. God,
I'm so in love with these dogs. Why did I
need to do that? Why do I need to share
the fact that I'm so happy with the world when
it really is it's about me. It's about my dogs.
(06:49):
But why is it I want people that I don't
even know to have an opinion or have a feeling
about me in bed with my dogs loving.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
Them, because that's what we've been made to think is important.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Attention is addictive. It is.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
I mean, you love something, you want other people to
love it too. You want to feel validated, like, hey,
I love this, do you love it too? And they
don't you feel weird about it. I'm not saying that
it's Okay. I just think that that's where a lot
of this stuff comes from.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Well, remember the day Scary walked in and I posted
something about what we did last night. No one ever
commented or liked it, so I just deleted. I deleted it. Yeah,
because I was doing it for them, you know.
Speaker 6 (07:25):
And I'm like, you know what if if you don't
appreciate this and you don't like it, then I'm just
gonna take it down from you.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
It didn't perform. Well, we had they had to cancel it.
We had to cancel that show. I had to cancel
that show. It's like you're running your own TV network. Yeah,
I'm producer, Sam, what's up.
Speaker 7 (07:43):
Most infuriating thing about Scary sometimes with social media is
when I ask him what he did or how something was,
he won't tell me. He'll go, oh, look on my Instagram.
It's not my story with you. Just answer my question. Friend,
here it is.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
I said, I posted some footage.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
You tell her in person like that. She's asking you
as a friend, not asch tell you.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Why follows you the Nine Inch Nails concert. He watched
the whole thing through his phone.
Speaker 5 (08:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
Meanwhile, this guy did it around the room about how
happy he was, and he put his phone down through
the whole concert and there was nothing to show for it.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
You liar, Well, well, you know, Closer to God. That's
like their hit. People want to see that. They want
to see him say that. The want Yeah, I don't
know if people want to see it through your phone,
they want to. I don't know. I don't know what
an old mate. It's all stupid. I don't get. I
just want to share it with the universe. I'm like,
look at how beautiful the universe. The universe is waiting
(08:37):
for your next post, for the nine inch nails post,
the cheese flavored oreos. I just wow.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Wait, So if all you want to do is share
it with the universe, then why do you care if
nobody likes it?
Speaker 1 (08:47):
You just wanted to share.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
That's a great question. Well, you want to share it,
but you want it to have some significance in the universe. Yeah,
he wants it to land in the universe in a
significant way of importance. I don't want to bother you
with it. I'm like, you know what, this is not
worth people. I don't want you have to see it
so much. It's so much noise on social media. But
(09:11):
you don't impact in significant posts. Okay, wow, but if
it hits I want you to see it.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
I think the coolest people I know have no presence
on social media and they're just happy and amazing and
fun to talk to and be around.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
I love them.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Well. Look, so bottom line is in I guess end
of discussion, if we want to end it here, is
use social media for how you use it. But that's
how you use it, right, you know. I gotta tell
you we've had some really sad breaking news stories of late.
I'm not commenting about them. And if someone thought, well,
you know, my absence in commenting online means I don't care.
(09:47):
That's not true, not true at all, And so you think, well,
unless you post it, then you it must not be
important to you. Well no, that's not how it works
out with me anyway. But no, I have some friends
online after Charlie Kirk was was was murdered, saying and
to all my friends who did not comment, obviously this
(10:10):
is not important to you. It's my friends who are
silent who are actually saying something loudly you don't care.
I'm like, I don't think that's necessarily the case.
Speaker 5 (10:21):
That that line of thinking has been around for quite
some time now, though, that if you don't say something,
then you're complicit and you're okay with it. That's not
necessarily the case, exactly. It doesn't please understand. As far
as I'm concerned, I cannot speak for anyone else. I'm
not complicit at anything because I don't post about it.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Nothing. That's not I mean, maybe you are, that's how
you feel. I just know how I feel. And I
think if we understand that everyone has their own road,
their own lane there, and with social media, then we're
okay when we can get along.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
Everybody uses social media for different things, to post different things, exactly.
Isn't that one of the reasons why you get algorithms
like you know what I mean, Like what you're following
is going to be different than what my algorithms.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
There are some people I'm very thankful when they stay silent.
I'm like, oh, what a gift.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
Sometimes you're like maybe I'm one of those people too.
Like my gift to everyone today is I will say nothing.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
You're welcome there you go, okay? Can we can we
get back to you? In alex So, what's what's I'm
sorry I'm watching Olympic divers. Look at that dove right
into the water and not the splash. Okay, what's your question?
You and Alex? Is everything okay? Though? Yeah? Everything silence
(11:40):
on social media? I mean there's next thing, Alex. I'm
gonna ask him everything. There's a crack in the foundation.
Speaker 6 (11:45):
And if things weren't okay, would you set up a
camera and cry into it for us to planned cry?
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Hold on, let me set up this camera And now
I'm gonna cry into my into the member On Facebook,
people will go. If people would say something very vague,
they call it vague booking.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
Just the hospit little bracelet. Don't ask, just send thoughts
and prayers. No, I need to know what I'm praying
for exactly right?
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Yeah? Yeah? What am I praying? And sending thoughts for details?
And then there's this one. And don't get mad if
you've done this. I'm not I'm not poking fun at you.
I'm just commenting on what you've done. If you've done this,
I am going to take a break from social media.
You will not hear from me for a while. Click
and they toast that why did they tell us that? Yeah?
Speaker 7 (12:23):
Thank god?
Speaker 1 (12:24):
They did, I'd be wondering.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Well, no, because they're making a statement. They're making a
statement that they don't have to leave social media. But
the statement is I'm pissed off at the world right now.
The world just too much and you people on social
media are pieces of crap. So I'm going to sign
off now, is what they should have said. But they
basically just wrapped it up with a nice little bow.
I'm off, peace out, or the I'm deleting friends. Let's
(12:47):
see if you make the cut.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Those are my favorite.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Yeah, I love this. I pray for me to make
the guy. You know. You know what, and I've told
you this before. On Facebook, you know, if it's someone's birthday,
it pops up. I guess I don't go to Facebook anyway.
It does, doesn't, it doesn't, don't. Their birthday's pop off.
That's how Alex knows when to delete someone when their
birthday pops up. Oh, I don't really talk to them anymore.
Delete so, I mean it's their their birthday, He deletes them.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Happy birthday, were no longer friends online.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
I haven't talked to you in three years. Goodbye. I
don't know anyways. Social media, it is what it is.
It's like I have fun with her or be serious
and yell at people I don't know. I do like
watching fights on airplanes and yeah, just get an app
for the fights on airplanes. I would be very waffle
House fights and twerking at waffle house. That's my favorite one.
(13:38):
Love it.

the fact that I'm so happy with the world when
it really is it's about me. It's about my dogs.
(06:49):
But why is it I want people that I don't
even know to have an opinion or have a feeling
about me in bed with my dogs loving.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
Them, because that's what we've been made to think is important.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Attention is addictive. It is.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
I mean, you love something, you want other people to
love it too. You want to feel validated, like, hey,
I love this, do you love it too? And they
don't you feel weird about it. I'm not saying that
it's Okay. I just think that that's where a lot
of this stuff comes from.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Well, remember the day Scary walked in and I posted
something about what we did last night. No one ever
commented or liked it, so I just deleted. I deleted it. Yeah,
because I was doing it for them, you know.
Speaker 6 (07:25):
And I'm like, you know what if if you don't
appreciate this and you don't like it, then I'm just
gonna take it down from you.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
It didn't perform. Well, we had they had to cancel it.
We had to cancel that show. I had to cancel
that show. It's like you're running your own TV network. Yeah,
I'm producer, Sam, what's up.
Speaker 7 (07:43):
Most infuriating thing about Scary sometimes with social media is
when I ask him what he did or how something was,
he won't tell me. He'll go, oh, look on my Instagram.
It's not my story with you. Just answer my question. Friend,
here it is.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
I said, I posted some footage.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
You tell her in person like that. She's asking you
as a friend, not asch tell you.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Why follows you the Nine Inch Nails concert. He watched
the whole thing through his phone.
Speaker 5 (08:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
Meanwhile, this guy did it around the room about how
happy he was, and he put his phone down through
the whole concert and there was nothing to show for it.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
You liar, Well, well, you know, Closer to God. That's
like their hit. People want to see that. They want
to see him say that. The want Yeah, I don't
know if people want to see it through your phone,
they want to. I don't know. I don't know what
an old mate. It's all stupid. I don't get. I
just want to share it with the universe. I'm like,
look at how beautiful the universe. The universe is waiting
(08:37):
for your next post, for the nine inch nails post,
the cheese flavored oreos. I just wow.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Wait, So if all you want to do is share
it with the universe, then why do you care if
nobody likes it?
Speaker 1 (08:47):
You just wanted to share.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
That's a great question. Well, you want to share it,
but you want it to have some significance in the universe. Yeah,
he wants it to land in the universe in a
significant way of importance. I don't want to bother you
with it. I'm like, you know what, this is not
worth people. I don't want you have to see it
so much. It's so much noise on social media. But
(09:11):
you don't impact in significant posts. Okay, wow, but if
it hits I want you to see it.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
I think the coolest people I know have no presence
on social media and they're just happy and amazing and
fun to talk to and be around.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
I love them.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Well. Look, so bottom line is in I guess end
of discussion, if we want to end it here, is
use social media for how you use it. But that's
how you use it, right, you know. I gotta tell
you we've had some really sad breaking news stories of late.
I'm not commenting about them. And if someone thought, well,
you know, my absence in commenting online means I don't care.
(09:47):
That's not true, not true at all, And so you think, well,
unless you post it, then you it must not be
important to you. Well no, that's not how it works
out with me anyway. But no, I have some friends
online after Charlie Kirk was was was murdered, saying and
to all my friends who did not comment, obviously this
(10:10):
is not important to you. It's my friends who are
silent who are actually saying something loudly you don't care.
I'm like, I don't think that's necessarily the case.
Speaker 5 (10:21):
That that line of thinking has been around for quite
some time now, though, that if you don't say something,
then you're complicit and you're okay with it. That's not
necessarily the case, exactly. It doesn't please understand. As far
as I'm concerned, I cannot speak for anyone else. I'm
not complicit at anything because I don't post about it.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Nothing. That's not I mean, maybe you are, that's how
you feel. I just know how I feel. And I
think if we understand that everyone has their own road,
their own lane there, and with social media, then we're
okay when we can get along.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
Everybody uses social media for different things, to post different things, exactly.
Isn't that one of the reasons why you get algorithms
like you know what I mean, Like what you're following
is going to be different than what my algorithms.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
There are some people I'm very thankful when they stay silent.
I'm like, oh, what a gift.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
Sometimes you're like maybe I'm one of those people too.
Like my gift to everyone today is I will say nothing.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
You're welcome there you go, okay? Can we can we
get back to you? In alex So, what's what's I'm
sorry I'm watching Olympic divers. Look at that dove right
into the water and not the splash. Okay, what's your question?
You and Alex? Is everything okay? Though? Yeah? Everything silence
(11:40):
on social media? I mean there's next thing, Alex. I'm
gonna ask him everything. There's a crack in the foundation.
Speaker 6 (11:45):
And if things weren't okay, would you set up a
camera and cry into it for us to planned cry?
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Hold on, let me set up this camera And now
I'm gonna cry into my into the member On Facebook,
people will go. If people would say something very vague,
they call it vague booking.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
Just the hospit little bracelet. Don't ask, just send thoughts
and prayers. No, I need to know what I'm praying
for exactly right?
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Yeah? Yeah? What am I praying? And sending thoughts for details?
And then there's this one. And don't get mad if
you've done this. I'm not I'm not poking fun at you.
I'm just commenting on what you've done. If you've done this,
I am going to take a break from social media.
You will not hear from me for a while. Click
and they toast that why did they tell us that? Yeah?
Speaker 7 (12:23):
Thank god?
Speaker 1 (12:24):
They did, I'd be wondering.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Well, no, because they're making a statement. They're making a
statement that they don't have to leave social media. But
the statement is I'm pissed off at the world right now.
The world just too much and you people on social
media are pieces of crap. So I'm going to sign
off now, is what they should have said. But they
basically just wrapped it up with a nice little bow.
I'm off, peace out, or the I'm deleting friends. Let's
(12:47):
see if you make the cut.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Those are my favorite.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Yeah, I love this. I pray for me to make
the guy. You know. You know what, and I've told
you this before. On Facebook, you know, if it's someone's birthday,
it pops up. I guess I don't go to Facebook anyway.
It does, doesn't, it doesn't, don't. Their birthday's pop off.
That's how Alex knows when to delete someone when their
birthday pops up. Oh, I don't really talk to them anymore.
Delete so, I mean it's their their birthday, He deletes them.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Happy birthday, were no longer friends online.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
I haven't talked to you in three years. Goodbye. I
don't know anyways. Social media, it is what it is.
It's like I have fun with her or be serious
and yell at people I don't know. I do like
watching fights on airplanes and yeah, just get an app
for the fights on airplanes. I would be very waffle
House fights and twerking at waffle house. That's my favorite one.
(13:38):
Love it.
