Speaker 1 (00:01):
Today's Daily Highlight from Elvis Duran in the Morning Show.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Hey, have any of you ever taken an improv class?
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Yeah? I did. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Not surprised people in no, no, no, not you in particular
about it, but people that do what we do for
a living. It just seems to be a parallel to
improv in a way because well, our show anyway, because
we don't read a script, there is no script none.
The art of improv is just, in my opinion, fascinating.
(00:39):
It's just, you know, free flowing, listening to what was said,
adding to it, continuing.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
It's like a game of tennis.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
You keep rallying, you go, you hit the ball back
and forth with each other, yes.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
And you do everything you can not to hit the net.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Everything you can.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
You know.
Speaker 5 (00:55):
I've been lobbying for us to do an improv class
together for I don't know, like years at this point.
I think it would be so good because it is
exactly what we do. We could use a little refresh.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Okay, I don't recall you lobbying for improv, but I
shouldn't say that because in the improv world, telling someone
that they never said anything about doing improv classes kind
of puts an end to the empire.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
It does. Yeah, I can't do that.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
So you're having a class right now? Yes and.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Yes and that's that well, that's those are the two words,
right in an improv class. Yes and just to continue
things in motion, you know. All right, So Daniel, you
took improv.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Yeah, I took him prov. But actually it was one
of when I auditioned to be at the Disney Studios
for like the college program, that was one one of
the auditions was an improv. Like we all had to
do an improv to move forward to the next to
next step. So that was a pretty big thing with
them as well.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
It was interesting, was that sheer terror for you?
Speaker 1 (01:59):
No, it was fine. I was. I was fine with that.
I moved on to the next level, so I.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Was, okay, See, look, I know we improv in here
every day and we have to. But at the same
time we have a clock ticking, which is an extra
added bonus. I mean, so, I mean, so we've been
I've been doing this, well, this show's been on for
thirty something years. I've been doing this for forty fifty years,
you know, I mean I've been doing almost fifty years.
Radio for almost fifty years. The thing is you have
(02:24):
to keep it moving, but you have a clock ticking.
You have to get it done in a certa amount
of time. So therefore, you know you have callers on,
you have to you have to move them ahead that
you can't.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Let them lag, you know, dude.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
And even in this room, if someone starts to go
on and on and on, I'll find a way to
be a jerk and kind of creep in there and
move it on.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
So there's a timeout thing.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
It's it's tricky, but if you said, Elvis, you're going
on stage tonight in front of an audience of fifty
people and you're doing improv, I would crap my pants.
Speaker 5 (02:55):
Yes, I feel like it turns conversation into a team
sport instead of just one on one. Yeah, Like, I
don't know if that really makes sense, but like we're
all we're all working toward the same thing at the
same time.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
And one thing to also keep in mind is typically
when you see people doing improv, it's comedians and the
rule that all improv has to be funny is the problem,
because all improv does not have to be humorous. It
really is truly just vaulting back and forth in conversation
and seeing how what different interesting.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
Alleys it could it could end up going down. Yeah, scary.
What's up?
Speaker 6 (03:32):
So when I was in middle school, I was in
drama talent. Everyone had to have a talent and one
of the portions of the course was improv.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
And it was.
Speaker 6 (03:40):
Terrifying because you don't want to be the train that
stops the caboose and the whole thing and goes off
the rails. You want to keep the thing going. So
I was like freaking out. I had stage fright. I
didn't want to be ever part of that, but I
had to because it was part of the course.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
And here you are.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
I like this text, super fun improv game we play.
It's called Don't Get Me Started. I actually played this one.
It's called Don't Get Me Started. The rules are you
hand someone a random topic to rant about. Ideally, then
they didn't pick the topic at all, and they start
by saying, oh, don't get me started on this, and
you know, insert topic name here, and then they proceed
(04:22):
just to go off the cuff and say whatever they
can about it. Right, But and then then I guess
the way we played it, you had to move to
the next person. Don't get me started, and then you
have to tag onto whatever they said. Those are fun games.
You know, you can easily play card games with your friends.
Improv games, I think are much more fun because you
(04:42):
have to get creative, you have to think.
Speaker 5 (04:44):
Yeah, they're so fun. And it's also about reacting to
what somebody said, not necessarily just waiting for your turn
to say what you wanted to say. So it keeps
the conversation flowing in the right direction.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
So let's do one.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Let's do an improv Oh jeez, okay, yes, and.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Yes, and.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Well, I mean, look at the good that comes out
of it. Let's talk about that. You're if you master
improv with your friends or with strangers, doesn't matter. Strangers
would be more fun. I think if you can master that,
that really helps you in your day to day conversations
with people anywhere and everywhere.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Right, yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 5 (05:29):
I was just reading about the positive impact that improv
classes have on teenagers because you know, now everybody's so
on their screen and they're used to communicating with people
via text and having a minute to stop and think
about what they want to say, whereas when you're in
a social setting in a classroom or at work. You
don't really have that same amount of time, and there's
so much anxiety that comes with it. So improv classes
(05:51):
are being recommended so that you can sort of get
over that and learn how to fit back into a
group setting where you can't use your screen.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Wow, you know, you just really truly identified the big
problem with communications communication this day, this day and age.
If you want to say that, say it that way
is we are so anti mfrog because of this phone
right here, because of their interaction on social media.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
Yeah, Nate, what's okay? I'll give you a scenario you
ready this that it prop works? Would you be okay
with this? I'll give you a scenario you guys acted out?
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Yeah? All right.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
So so Danielle and Gandhi you work at an erotic
bakery of course, all right, so you're you're you're there
and you're starting the day and you're you're baking Eurotic
cakes and all that stuff.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Okay, okay, okay, okay, So Gandhi, did you put the
penis cookies into the oven yet?
Speaker 5 (06:39):
I sure did, Danielle. We need to make sure that
they're filled with cream.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Yes, And you know you have to only cook them
a certain amount of time, because we don't want to
burn them.
Speaker 5 (06:49):
And we want to make sure that they're in every
color as well, of course, ilium.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
Or customer customer command. Hi, you, I need a penis.
I need a penis cake. I need a penis cake, please, amazing?
Speaker 1 (07:02):
What flavor penis?
Speaker 4 (07:06):
No?
Speaker 1 (07:06):
I don't think penis is an actual flavor, sir?
Speaker 5 (07:08):
At this point, can we call in scotti be because
that's how it would become.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
I'm not terrible at this. Isn't penis a flavor? I
don't know.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
I don't think penis is a flavor, sir. I mean,
we have chocolate vanilla, but we even have banana cream.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Banana cream would be perfect.
Speaker 5 (07:25):
Okay, okay, so what do you need for the gentleman?
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Give me your pencil. I'm gonna show you what shape
I wanted to be, because this is someone I know.
I wanted to be shaped like this right here?
Speaker 5 (07:36):
Okay?
Speaker 3 (07:37):
There? Can you do that?
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Oh that goes a little to the left. They should
get that check sir.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
It's actually to the right, but I guess it'd be
to your left.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Okay, when do you need this cake? Bye?
Speaker 2 (07:48):
By the way, tonight, how fast can you can you
cram your penis cake in the oven.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
I don't know, gandhi, do we have time to cram
our penis cake in the oven today? Absolutely?
Speaker 3 (07:59):
I think it.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
It's an extra cost for this rush delivery of the penis,
but we could definitely do it. Banana cream, Yeah, okay,
lean to the right.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Lightly insert something new. Scary enters and is upset with
his boob cake. Excuse me, yes, I'm sorry. Can you
wait a long please?
Speaker 1 (08:18):
We were helping this gentleman.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
I'm sorry. Hey, hey, please go right ahead, mister important,
go right ahead. Repressing issue.
Speaker 6 (08:26):
I ordered this boob cake, but this, the left one,
is far bigger than the right one. I feel like
my wife is going to be insulted when I present
this to her.
Speaker 5 (08:33):
No, it's called life, it's called your wife knows what's up.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
My mom always complains that one's bigger than the other.
It's a normal thing. Don't worry.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
And I ordered a quart of milk with this, and
you didn't give me the milk.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
We don't well milk in this bakery.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
Don't know. I thought you did sell milk. You sell milk,
it says it on the sign.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
We're out.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Okay, okay, you just you just slit the fire right,
She said no, but no, But then he says it's.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
On the sign. No, there's no sign with milk on it.
He has milk sign. We sell milk. Go ahead, Nate,
get back to it. Okay.
Speaker 4 (09:13):

have because I just need that, and I would like
to use your bathroom at the same time. Can you
get the key to the bathroom first?

Speaker 2 (10:00):

for my cake. So let me go take a look.
I'll get back to you.

No, come with me, okay, I guess it's fine.
Speaker 3 (10:10):

Speaker 1 (10:14):
We also touched photographs.
Speaker 5 (10:16):
If you would like to provide a photograph, please schedule
all right.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
So I went to the bathroom with this gentleman and
his is perfect. Sir, would you mind posing to be
a model for my penis cake?
Speaker 3 (10:31):
And I got it?
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Thank you, guys. I'll be back in one hour. Not

Speaker 3 (10:38):
And see that.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
We could use a refresher.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
Yeah, it's okay, I want my money. I didn't buy
anything returning it.
Speaker 7 (10:55):
I'm the only one that bought anything. I paid for
a Wiener cookie that's in this whole deal.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
I didn't see any money come out of your bocket.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
I thought you were gonna be on the floor right.
Speaker 5 (11:08):
Oh, this is like I'm done with this no more.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
No, I mean scene is done?
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Yeah, and scene.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
And yes and so yes, so uh in closing. I'm
gonna close it out so improv why not? It scares
me the thought of it, And I know, am I
the only one whose heart starts to beat a little
faster when I started thinking about having to be on
stage and do this.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
But I think that makes you that if you need
some energy, you know what I mean, if you don't
have any, I don't feel like you're gonna be as funny.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
I think doing it.
Speaker 5 (11:44):
In front of people would make me nervous. Just us
in a room together, I think would be so fun.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Well we just we kind of did that. You do
have several million people
