Speaker 1 (00:01):
Today's Daily Highlight from Elvis Duran in the morning show.
Let's get into a conversation before we go around the room.
And then the first around the room person will be
Danielle because she wants to talk about something in specific.
Was it the vomiting on the way to work?

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Wiz?

Speaker 1 (00:17):
We're taking a whiz, all right, I'm watcheeing the wi
the whiz on Broadway? Absolutely all right. So the other night,
and you know, I love Gandi for doing this and
all of her friends, including Andrew. They they go and
prepare food for people in this big church kitchen almost
every week, now right, I mean you guys are there

(00:38):
a lot? Yeah, once or twice a week, Yeah, once
or twice a month. Sorry, we're so different. We're not
that nice. And I would love to be invited to
do that, but yes, I would also Here in New
York City, God's love, we deliver. You know, they have
that huge bunch of kitchens down in the buildings. They
want us to come by and cook for them as well,

(00:59):
it would anyway. So you guys were just in a church,
mind you in a fight erupted? Yeah, over foil? A
brawl A brawl what happened.

Speaker 3 (01:13):
Well, your little friend Andrew over here thinks that foyle
just grows on trees and you can willing neilly waste
it left and right. I was like, wait, you're just
gonna toss all that? Because there was this extra foil
at the end, I thought maybe roll it back up,
put it back into the thing because we hadn't used
it. It wasn't even used. And he's like, oh please, crumpled
it up in my face and chucked it in the trash,

(01:33):
to which I said, you don't even reuse foil at
your home. You just throw away foil like it's nothing.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
He doesn't.

Speaker 3 (01:39):
Apparently he doesn't reuse foil, and he thinks I'm a
maniac for reusing it. And it turns so ugly that
he folded up foil and shoved it in my face
and was like take it home. Then take it.

Speaker 1 (01:48):
Oh, now in a church. This is a church house
of worship, and you're throwing foil at gandhy.

Speaker 4 (01:57):
He forced me to take it home with me, put
like nicely because apparently we love to reuse our foil.
So I folded it up for you and said, because
you love it so much, take it home.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
You'll use it. Right, have you used it? I haven't
seen the foil.

Speaker 3 (02:13):
I have used it.

Speaker 4 (02:14):
Actually, Andrew, you were telling me that you wash your
foil and reuse it.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
I will call b s. That is not a thing.

Speaker 3 (02:21):
And you know what, sometimes I don't even wash it.
I just reuse it. Like if I put it in
the toaster oven for something, I'll eave it in there for.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
The misty, Okay, all it has his crumbs on it.
Foil is not absorbent, it's not poorous. Therefore, if you
if it has anything on it, it's not going to
absorb the smell and taste. Thank you frog. Well, here's
the thing.

Speaker 5 (02:42):
I think, once you use it one tonster dish, it
is good for that dish for the life of your
using that dish. Like let's say you use it cover
lasagna and you're gonna use it. You can just put
it back over it and use it again. We move on.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
We all have our our foil threshold, all right. Now,
if it's too juicy on the foil, I'll go I
don't feel like washing it. Sure, yeah, But if it's
just on like toast, or if it's dry or on
the top of lasagna, it it doesn't leave a lot
of sauce.

Speaker 4 (03:11):
Yeah, why not?

Speaker 1 (03:12):
It's right there. You can use it again.

Speaker 3 (03:14):
Clean foil will be reused. Andrew was crumpling it and
tossing it out.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
I mean, now foil, new foil.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
By the way, at a place like that where you're
trying to feed people who don't have a lot of stuff,
that's right, Daniel, you probably gonna use the damn foil
over again.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
Let's try, Daniel, go for the guilt. Go for the guilt.

Speaker 4 (03:30):
I feel like that's not gonna work on me. Nice,
try all. I just I've never heard of this. I've
never heard of a single person say that that's reusable.
I guess what used tupperware for? You just heard you
just heard us on that one. The man is known
as Gandhi Coling bs.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
Nick, who was there with us. It was just the
three of us. Nick said, oh my god, you don't
reuse foil. I always reuse foil. Everybody reads uspoil, don't they.
And Andrew just acted like we were annoyance.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
It could be where you're from. Keep in mind, Andrew
is from a family that rents.

Speaker 3 (04:04):
Yachts, yes, owns, probably owns some.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
I wish i've this text message. This text message, my
grandmother would punch you in the throat if you ever
threw it. I'm actually team Gandhi because I usually waste everything,
but when it comes to foil, you don't do that.
In my upbringing, Maya Millie, she would actually wash the
foil out and hang you on the clothes line and
use it again.

Speaker 3 (04:28):
Iron out the foil to smooth it out.

Speaker 1 (04:30):
It's great about it, Milly is not only is she
drawing the the the freshly washed foil, but it also
it's shining and keeps the birds away. You know, they
get out of the backyard. That, my god, is multipurpose.
Oh my god.

Speaker 3 (04:42):
Billy was ninety something. She only used one roll of
didn't boil her entire life.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
Her entire life, I mean from the Great War, I
mean World War two. It's expensive, foils expensive.

Speaker 3 (04:54):
I mean it's a metal, isn't it that I just
toss metal out into the ether for no reason. You
don't have a pe.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
Like in your toaster oven, like a piece of foil
that just kind of stays there.

Speaker 4 (05:03):
Well, I don't have a touch oven, but my air
fryer I put that in there. Well, did we use
that on the yacht? Don't have that one. It's not
expensive enough. We use a reil oven.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
I'm not saying you should. You don't have to be
as going as far as Aunt Maley, but you can.
You can use it several times. Can we all agree
on that? Come on, Andrew, can you try it? Come on, Andrew,
come on, sure.

Speaker 4 (05:30):
I just next time we get toast or something from
a breakfast place, I'll be watching to make sure everybody
reuses that foil.

Speaker 3 (05:37):
You're missing the point.

Speaker 2 (05:38):
Talking about cooking in our kitchen's not here.

Speaker 3 (05:40):
If it's soiled foil, yeah, sure, you get rid of it.
Soiled foil, no, no good. But if it is a
reusable piece of foil, you reuse it. Do you hate
the earth? No, it sounds like you do.

Speaker 4 (05:51):
The way you made it seem and the way this
whole thing came up, said that you reuse it the
same way his Aunt Maley reuses it.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
Nobody does that. I don't rush and dry it and
hang it up and press it.

Speaker 1 (06:02):
I do not do that. You said you look, you
know a lot of texts are coming in. A lot
of grandmothers, A lot of grandmothers are from that time
right after or during the which the depression where they
wasted nothing right.

Speaker 2 (06:17):
My grandmother used if she was wearing pantyhose and there
was a run, she would take out a thread and
needle and she would sew it so that she could
reuse the pantyhose.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
So I think they're as as crazy as it sounds.
There's something really cool about that. And so a few
moments ago, during the song, Froggy says, well, I just
did something weird. I just I just reused a red
Solo cup. I'm like what my mom and dad, who
always drank on the weekends, they had rose red Solo
cups in the dishwasher. They would they would dishwash them

(06:49):
in the dishwasher like five or six times. They last forever.

Speaker 5 (06:53):
I had this new love. I found this minute made
zero sugar lemonade. They have lemonade and strawberry lemonade, and
they are both ridiculously good. So I have been getting
ice and a solo cup and it had just the
little remnants of yesterday's eliminading in the bottom. So I
washed it out, dried it, and I reused the solo cup.
I just don't want to waste it. Because it's still a.

Speaker 1 (07:14):
Man frog and you're from good parents that very instilled
that to you. But I draw the solo cups.

Speaker 3 (07:21):
I'm getting breaking news also about Andrew. Apparently he threw
out a massive amount of leftovers last night.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
What what was at.

Speaker 3 (07:28):
The church, your friend, Josh?

Speaker 1 (07:29):
Oh, it was one shrimp?

Speaker 3 (07:31):
Yeah right, probably a whole plate.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
I cooked delicious shrimp, and I had this shrimp. That
shrimp could feed a family of four the earth.

Speaker 3 (07:38):
I feel like that's all we've realized here.

Speaker 1 (07:40):
That shrimp gave it to life, and it's such a
great food. It has its own handle.

Speaker 2 (07:46):
The birthdays on the way, love you and your happy
person so much.

Speaker 1 (07:48):
Thank you so much. That way was your birthday? Next week? Yes,
next Tuesday? Can we delivered the cake to the yacht Mediterranean?
The foil over the cake will also have tomato sauce
on it. Don't ask questions, well, happy birthday, almost Andrew.

(08:09):
You somebody from Connecticut is siding with Andrew. Of course,
isn't the person living in Connecticut or their butler
