know what, dealing with cancer it's a frightening thing. And
look at that. It's something you go through and uh,
you get through it.

Speaker 7 (04:46):
And they say, if you're going to get a cancer,
everything happens for a reason.

Speaker 3 (04:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (04:50):
And they say, if you're going to get one, the
thyroid one is the easiest one to correct.

Speaker 2 (04:53):
Okay, good, correct, Daniel.

Speaker 4 (04:55):
I can't wait for you to light the walk again.
Let's go.

Speaker 3 (06:15):
You're the friend on LinkedIn.

There you go, hello scaries on LinkedIn, and I hope
you get that job. Scary. Holding on one second, Mikey,
and thank you so much, for listening and the congratulations
on everything that you're rolling through. And let's get into
the three things we need to know, gandhi, Hello, what's
going on?

Speaker 3 (06:30):
All right?

Speaker 8 (06:30):
It's official. The government shutdown is over. President Trump signed
the funding measure that was just passed by the House Wednesday.

Speaker 2 (06:37):
Hey, yeah, here we go.

Speaker 8 (06:39):
The measure finally made it out of the Senate Monday
after a handful of Democrats joined Republicans to pass the
spending bill, which extends funding until January thirtieth. Democrats refuse
to pass the legislation for over forty days, saying it
must contain legislation that extends the Obamacare tax credits, which
are set to expire soon.

Speaker 2 (06:55):
Two things to remember, Yes, it expires in two months. Yes,
and then they have to do this again, Oh my god.
And also, just because it's over doesn't mean it's over.
It takes a long time to get things rolling again, right, get.

Speaker 8 (07:09):
Back on track. Don't expect flights to just suddenly be
on time and back to normal.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
It's going to take a while as well. It's going
to take a while we get the food run in.
Absolutely what a mess.

Speaker 8 (07:17):
Indeed, a common chemical used by dry cleaners and at
home and stainless steel, polish, spot cleaners, and some adhesives
is being linked to liver disease. Researchers yeah, I know
at the University of Southern California Medical School say the
chemical PCE is associated with a three times greater risk
of liver fibrosis. That's a build up a scar tissue
that can cause liver cancer, liver failure, even death. The

(07:38):
study found that about seven percent of American adults have
detectable levels of this already.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
Really, yes, I bet I do well.

Speaker 8 (07:45):
Researchers say they found that people with higher incomes are
at higher risk, theorizing that it could be because they're
more likely to use dry cleaners. Scary never uses his
washer and dryer.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
Oh I used dry cleaners too too. Uh oh, should
I take this duro off right now?

Speaker 8 (08:01):
Oh, my gosh, it's killing you.

Speaker 7 (08:03):
My gosh.

Speaker 8 (08:03):
And finally it's official here too. The US Mint struck
its final penny yesterday. President Trump previously announced plans to
retire the coin, which dates back to seventeen ninety three,
back in February, citing production costs as a primary reason.
According to the Treasury Department, the penny will remain legal
tender and retain its value indefinitely, as there are approximately
three hundred billion pennies still in circulation okay, which exceeds

(08:27):
the amount needed for commerce. I wonder if this is
going to change pricing now. Could be everything's going to
be rounded up to five or down.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
To the zero. And a special message to Abe Link
and if he's listening, no worries. You still have the
five dollar bill.

Speaker 8 (08:40):
He'll be fine. And those are your three things.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
Our friend Tommy Dario hosts. I've never said this before.

Standard data and messaging rates may apply. Elvis, Duran and
The Morning Show.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
Yeah, just because they've got a budget rolling for the
government doesn't mean that your air flight or flight your
flight will be on time. It's going to take a
while for that to resolve. Traffic is in the air
is still kind of screwed up, and traffic on the ground.
You know, here's the thing about New York City. It
is a magical time at Christmas, but the time also
brings a mega ton a butt load of traffic. Yes

(10:05):
yesterday was stopped. The city was stopped. I rode downtown.
Was scary yesterday. It took us a little time to
get the traffic was a stop. You know how the
ways map is red lines where you're going. It's and
then I had to come back uptown and it was stopped,
and I had to go home and it was stopped.
It's just traffic is really bad right now.

Speaker 7 (10:24):
And let me tell you today it's it's already fifty degrees.
So I think the weather's going to beautiful today. So
there's gonna be a lot of people out and about
in the city.

Speaker 2 (10:32):
Good, Yeah, we're good. Maybe they won't get in my car.

Speaker 7 (10:36):
They haven't even the tree.

Speaker 2 (10:39):
Haven't lit the tree or lighted the tree. They haven't even.
Isn't it lighted? I was about to say Litton, but
to me, lit sounds better. But is it technically lit or.

Speaker 8 (10:53):
Lights lighted?

Speaker 2 (10:54):
I think people light it. Things get lighted. Well, the
trees lighted. I like Litton. Let's commit that thing. I
know that when I were like the other night we
went out and had margaritas, I got lit Yeah exactly,
not lighted. Yeah, well, I don't know. I'm just asking.

Speaker 8 (11:09):
It says both lit and lighted are correct. Oh no
winners here, but it says lit is more common and
often preferred today, while lighted is a more traditional regular
verb forms.

Speaker 2 (11:19):
Okay, so I'm old school with lighted and scary is
more common, and I think lit it is lit sounds
better to right, like, yeah, okay, we'll leave it.

Speaker 8 (11:31):
You can do it.

Speaker 2 (11:32):
Horror scopes producers saying it is food news Thursday. Indeed,

best stories start.

Speaker 8 (12:25):
Your day's a.

Nine, Capricorn. Pause and failure are not the same. If

Start one big or small, just make it consistent. Your
days of six and those are Thursday morning horscopes.

Speaker 2 (13:31):
Thank you, Danielle, what are you coming up?

Speaker 7 (13:32):
Did he broke prison regulations and now he is getting
out later than he thought? And Kim Kardashian skims is
worth how much?

Speaker 2 (13:41):
Really? You see? I think I have a theory about
the Kardashians and their businesses. Okay, Kardashians and the Genners.
I think they do very well and their business Their
businesses are thriving, but they really enjoy letting everyone know
how much they are thriving. They love the validation because
I think which one which Jenner has the makeup line Kylie?

(14:06):
And people have been saying for a long time, you know,
it's worth a billion dollars. I read something yesterday. It
may not be worth quite a billion dollars, but they
want you to think it's worth a billion. Did you
read that same thing I read.

Speaker 8 (14:16):
I don't know if it was the same thing, but
I did read that that they they and some people
well kind of what you said. They say that they
over inflate right to let everyone know, oh my gosh,
we're just killing it. That's not actually the truth.

Speaker 2 (14:26):
No matter what the numbers are, they're they're doing very well.
I'm not taking that away from them.

Speaker 7 (14:30):
But they're inflating it or not. They got a lot
more money than.

Speaker 2 (14:32):
I do, they than all of us, So they're hanging
out you know, with the Amazon people, and you know,
they're all friends in that weird tier of friends. It's
just it's just weird to me how much of it
is true friendship versus how much of it is Well,
let's get some headlines off of this. I don't know, working,

(14:54):
maybe network networking.

Speaker 7 (14:55):
I guarantee have those people at Chris Jenner's party. They
didn't even know. They just got invited because they were
who they are.

Speaker 2 (15:02):
But on the other hand, don't ultra wealthy billionaires don't
they deserve friends?

Speaker 8 (15:06):
Of course, I don't know, But do they.

Speaker 7 (15:11):
Are all their friends like all these famous people.

Speaker 2 (15:14):
Maybe they're acquaintances, but they just you know, if they
can get them to show up at a party, wouldn't
you Yeah, hey, I guess yeah, you can get Serena
Carpenter to come to your birth birthday?

Speaker 10 (15:24):
Cool?

Speaker 2 (15:24):
Okay, I'd love to have her there.

Speaker 8 (15:26):
Well, if they say your network is your net worth,
it makes total sense that really wealthy people would hang
out with really wealthy people.

Speaker 7 (15:32):
That is true.

Speaker 8 (15:33):
Also, like, you know, if Kim Kardashian and I were
kicking it for a weekend, what are we gonna do.
I'm not gonna do anything she's gonna do. I'd be like,
I can't afford that.

Speaker 7 (15:39):
Get well, and then she would probably pay because she's
she's I think that's why she.

Speaker 8 (15:42):
Wouldn't want to hang out with me.

Speaker 2 (15:43):
And also there's that theory you are the people you
hang out with. Yeah. Yeah, so the billionaires are hanging
out with the billionaires. It all makes sense.

Speaker 7 (15:52):
Who chooses to get up at this time?

Speaker 5 (15:56):
Elvista rand in the morning show, Elvis at the morning show.

Speaker 2 (16:04):
So I just had this great conversation with Scotty about
Christmas trees. You know he's going from Megan, she's from
a Christmas tree dynasty. Yes, oh wow, I mean out
by my house in Jersey, they have a Christmas tree farm.
That's correct. He said, you gotta Why don't you just
drive over and get a discounted tree. Yeah, I would
love a tree you're gonna get Alex on here? Hey, Hi, Alex,

(16:26):
good morning, bye, good morning. Okay, look, I don't want
to start your day out on a negative, but you know,
Scotty bees incredible woman. Megan, her family has a Christmas
tree by our house, a Christmas tree farm, a farm.
He said, why don't you, Alex load up a tree

(16:50):
at the farm, and you know, take you home to
your house. I said, because And I said, oh no,
And I said, because Alex, Alex, we haven't had we
don't have Christmas trees anymore, relicks and I need a Christmas.

Speaker 4 (17:02):
Tree miilot in the past.

Speaker 3 (17:05):
But no, because you already have an artificial one and
every time we get a real one, I got to
clean it up.

Speaker 7 (17:11):
Yeah, all the pine needles on the Yeah, the fact
I help.

Speaker 8 (17:15):
That's such a dad statement. Yea, what do you mean,
just dads, We're not getting it because I'm gonna have
to clean it up. I'm not doing this.

Speaker 2 (17:23):
You're not getting a doll. It's not like a puppy.
It's a tree. And you know, I just don't want
to go a Christmas without a tree. I need a tree, don't.

Speaker 3 (17:33):
We don't even know where we're going to.

Speaker 2 (17:35):
Be exactly exactly. We got to stop that. We need
to know where we're going to be and have a tree.

Speaker 7 (17:39):
And here's the thing. It doesn't matter where you're going
to be on the day, it's the leading up that
you enjoy it.

Speaker 2 (17:46):
And the three months after.

Speaker 7 (17:47):
Yeah, exactly, so I get it, or where you're going
to be right now, like well, which would be probably
like three places. But I'm just saying, get a little something.

Speaker 2 (17:56):
What if you put it outside? I don't know if
you clean up? Not the same? Well, now all right,
can we can we at least talk about it? Can
we have a family meeting, you, me and the Schnauzers. Yes, yes,
we said, but you do agree that you do. Even
even artificial trees, you tend to steer away from a tree.

(18:18):
You just don't want them, and I need them. I
need a tree.

Speaker 3 (18:22):
Got it? I got it decorated by myself.

Speaker 2 (18:24):
No you don't.

Speaker 3 (18:25):
I gotta take it down by myself.

Speaker 2 (18:27):
That's not true. That's not true.

Speaker 8 (18:30):
That's like such a fun thing to do together.

Speaker 2 (18:33):
That's the problem. Let's analyze this. Okay, you don't want
to be with me?

Speaker 7 (18:36):
Okay, here we go, Here we go.

Speaker 3 (18:40):
There we go.

Speaker 2 (18:43):
All right. I'm wondering if people are listening right now
that are going through the same thing, either there in
a couple of situation or a family situation where some
are for the tree, some are like, okay, tree, what
a pain in the ass. We need a tree, even.

Speaker 7 (18:56):
If it's something small. You can get something small.

Speaker 3 (18:59):
What what about if we get one like my mom has.

Speaker 2 (19:03):
Okay, tell him how they tell them how your mom's
tree works. I think a tree is a tree and
it works, but it's it's okay tell them.

Speaker 3 (19:11):
So after Hurricane Sandy, when everything got ruined at my
mom's house, she didn't want to celebrate Christmas. So I
went on Amazon and I got a pop up tree
that go that folds down to one inch and it
goes right un beneath the bed. And every year we
still use the same tree. And all I do is
pull it up and plug it in.

Speaker 7 (19:29):
Oh you remember what my grandmother used to do, right naughny?
So shoot, put a garbage bag over the tree every year,
drag it down to the basement.

Speaker 2 (19:39):
Still decorate, Yes.

sitting in the living room several years ago, we had
a tree. We were doing something, some mushroom me something,
I don't know. We were floating around and the world
went black and white and my mom and dad appeared.

Speaker 7 (21:08):
I remember it was ked me.

Okay, no, So my mom and dad were there and
black and white talking to me. I'm like it happened
because we had a tree. I think so though I
want to hallucinate in front of a tree with my
mom and dad.

Speaker 8 (21:23):
Don't steal that joy from him, Alex.

Speaker 2 (21:26):
You guys there, we gotta go. We're we're getting a tree.
I'm gonna make a decision here. We're getting a tree,
and you're gonna be okay with it, and you're gonna

up after. That's what we're doing. If you if you
push back, we're getting get a bunch.

Speaker 2 (21:51):
You know there are people that are listening, going they're
having the same struggle in their house.

Speaker 8 (21:54):
My sister and brother in law have this struggle because
she loves to decorate everything, and he's kind of like,
I don't care, but she's been really, really busy. And
she came home and he had decorated the whole house and.

Speaker 7 (22:03):
Great, see that's that's a romantic chair.

Speaker 2 (22:06):

will getting a tree. We're gonna take it home and
we're gonna to hallucinate in front of a tree. And
who's gonna cut it down? You are, Alex. Cut cut
it down. Yes, you go to the tree farm, they
give you a saw, you cut it down. I'll do
it for you. No, I'll do it. God, no, no.

Speaker 7 (22:20):
That is one of my favorite memories as a kid
growing Yes, growing in your hands, growing up in the Bronx.
Obviously you couldn't do that. So we took a trip
upstate and my dad. That's what we would do, and
it was it was always a special thing when I
was a kid.

Speaker 2 (22:35):
Oh my god, don't ask me to tie you to
your car. It will fall off. I'm not tying it, Sappy.

And in the Morning show, you know, were talking about
the Grammy nominees. Yeah, there's a nominee on there that
has a fascinating story. And Gandhi was telling me about this.
I didn't even know this. The guy from Milli Vanilli.

Speaker 8 (23:31):
Yes, oh yeah, Sab mor Vaughn.

Speaker 2 (23:34):
Now go back to the beginning. Remember Milli Vanilli. They
were found out to be frauds. They never sang a
w a note in their lives. They had other people
singing for them. But they they had a huge hits.
Millie Villy was a huge sensation.

Speaker 8 (23:47):
They won that Grammy.

Speaker 2 (23:48):
They won a Grammy and.

Speaker 8 (23:50):
Then they got it taken away from them after it
was discovered that they were lip syncing and they weren't
actually singing, and we know that that was like huge
controversy and to this day people still talk about it. Well,
now Fab from the duo, because unfortunately the other man
from Milli Vanilli passed away, Fab is nominated for a
Grammy thirty five years later him. Why because he is

(24:11):
narrating the audiobook of what happened of the actual incident.

Speaker 2 (24:15):
So yeah, he's doing a Grammy for talking about losing
a Grammy.

Speaker 7 (24:21):
Yeah, so he's laminated.

Speaker 8 (24:22):
We don't know if he's gonna win yet, but it's
I think he would win. I think it's a story
that the Grammys would love to to kind of highlight.

Speaker 7 (24:28):
And do you guys know where the whole thing happened
with the lip sync incident?

Speaker 2 (24:33):
Nowhere?

Speaker 7 (24:33):
It was a place called Lake Compounds, which is a
huge amusement park for our Connecticut listeners. I was there
this summer and there's actually a sign all about they
need to advertise.

Speaker 2 (24:46):
Yeah, that's why we go to Lake Compounds because the
Milli Vanilli controversy. They thrive because of it.

Speaker 8 (24:53):
That'd be really cool if you wins it.

Speaker 2 (24:54):
It would be really but it's not irony. What would
the word be I don't know.

Speaker 8 (24:59):
I mean, like, is that would we say that's a
full circle moment?

Speaker 2 (25:02):
Sure is?

Speaker 8 (25:02):

Elvis Duran in the Morning Show, Elvis Duran and the
Morning Show.

Speaker 2 (29:11):
So a friend of ours Will Jadara. He's married to
Christina Tosi, our favorite baker, right, we love her. We
Scotty Bee loves her the most because she loves to
use cereals in her milks to make her deserts. Right, Yes,
remember her she's great. Love her. She's been in a
couple of times. But Will Will has this book out
which is it needs to be in every every collection.

(29:33):
I love it. Unreasonable Hospitality what it's called. It's about
the restaurant business and how you have to really go
more than just good food to make people want to
come back to your restaurant. But it's it's life lessons
we can all apply no matter in or out of
restaurant business. Trust me. Will Jadara has an incredible book
he sent out his weekly newsletter called pre Meal. Pre

(29:59):
Meal in the restauran business. It's where you get together
with the staff before you open the doors for dinner
service and you talk about the specials, you talk about everything.
But Will's philosophy is also this is where you pump
people up and you really really understand who they are
as individuals who are working at your restaurant to make
that night a special night for people who are coming
through those doors, because you want him to come back. Right.

(30:22):
So he in his gift guide he has two ideas
for books, and this is a great idea for readers,
especially you know Danielle and Gandhi. His dad wanted him
to read a book by Ethan Hawk called Rules for
a Night. We all love Ethan Hawk, the actor, right,
he wrote this book and it's not a big book,

(30:47):
not a huge read. It's about a night who writes
a letter to his kids at home while he is
at war, to tell him how much he loves him,
about whether or not he's coming home. I don't know
the full story, but it's a beautiful book. So so
Will's dad said, I want you to have this book.
He said, okay, I'll go into Amazon and buy it.
He said, no, no, no, I want you to I'll take
care of it. He said, well, I can order it dad.

(31:07):
He said, no, no, no, Will, I'll I'll give you a copy.
His dad loved the book so much he gave him
his own personal copy that he had highlighted his favorite
lines in.

Speaker 7 (31:17):
I love that.

Speaker 2 (31:18):
So not only did Will get a gift from his
dad this book that he his dad really wanted him
to read, it was the book highlighting his dad's favorite
parts of the book.

Speaker 8 (31:28):
That's like the best gift ever.

Speaker 2 (31:29):
What a great gift.

Speaker 8 (31:30):
I'm going to ask my dad for that for Christmas.

Speaker 2 (31:31):
You're so your dad. Yeah, he's into reading and highlighting things.

Speaker 8 (31:35):
Always yeah, and he will always tell me you have
to read this book because of X y Z. And
one of his favorites is The Demon Haunted World by
Carl Sagan, and I'm going to ask him to go
through that and highlight the most important parts.

Speaker 11 (31:45):
For me.

Speaker 2 (31:46):
Amazing because you know, every once in a while you'll
come across a textbook and when you're in school and
it'll have it'll be used when it'll have people.

Speaker 7 (31:51):
Oh yeah, I always love that me too.

Speaker 2 (31:53):
I mean, it was like Cliff's notes, but they highlighted
the most important parts of the book. But to have
that personalization from someone who loves you so much, they're
giving you their personal copy with all of the things
that they love the most.

Speaker 8 (32:06):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (32:07):
That is a gift of love. Now another book in here,
and I think this is interesting. I read this today.
It's by Kevin Bame. It's called The Bottomless Cup, a
memoir of Secrets, restaurants and forgiveness. He says, this book
by a good friend of mine. I'm shamelessly promoting it
because it's terrific. Kevin is one of the most prolific

(32:29):
and exceptional restaurant tours in America and this is his memoir,
the story of how he found himself through service. It's
funny and honest, a rip roaring read. Funny you mentioned
that because Kevin is going to be on our show
in ninety minutes. He's coming in to talk about this book.
What a coincidence, I know a Kowenkadink as Nate would say, Oh, God, absolutely,

(32:50):
and so it's a great read I'm hearing. It talks
about how he used to live in his car and
how he started a restaurants. He caught his hair on
fire when he was cooking. You know, if you ever
wonder what it's like, the true story behind the scenes
of how a person has this passion owning a restaurant
and they struggle and they fight, and they do everything

(33:10):
they can to learn how to make it right, and
they do well. He's a This guy's a professional. He's
a very successful story and he's coming on our show today.

Speaker 7 (33:19):
I love that.

Speaker 8 (33:20):
There's I want to see if he has the chef scar.
Everyone has that scar right here on your forearm, somewhere
from a pan, yep, from a pan or a hot
but it's always right there.

Speaker 2 (33:28):
Wow, see it.

Speaker 7 (33:29):
I'm so excited to highlighting books. Go what if someone
highlighted fifty shades of gray and handed you there like
a dirty part. I wanted to share this with you.
This is what I want to touch the book first.

Speaker 2 (33:41):
I can't you know, the pages are sticking together.

Speaker 7 (33:43):
I highlighted my favorite moments.

Speaker 2 (33:45):
Don't ask me what I highlighted it with. Well, anyway,
you know, if you're looking for gift ideas, it's someone
in your life whole loves to read.

Speaker 3 (33:53):
You know.

Speaker 2 (33:53):
These are the go tos. And I'm so glad that
Will puts that out in his weekly newsletter. Anyway, we
have a phone tap on the way. What else we
have coming up? We had food news Thursday? How fitting
Froggy doing food news? So hang out the phone tap,
give me like fifteen minutes. We'll give you a phone tap.

Speaker 2 (34:53):
This is so wild. So several years ago Danielle, our
friend Gondhi once came in and she said she had
a theory that really, really really wealthy people fly to
foreign countries and hunt people.

Speaker 8 (35:08):
Yeah, I'm sure of it.

Speaker 2 (35:10):
Do you remember she said that. She'd say, I know
these rich people, Yeah, they're going to other countries, go
into the woods and they're they're killing game. But the
game is human beings.

Speaker 7 (35:21):
It is very hunger games is Yeah.

Speaker 2 (35:23):
You're crazy, Yeah, yeah, your mind. So tell everyone about
the story you found. It's in the New York Post today.

Speaker 8 (35:29):
Yes, well, I think it was yesterday that I came out.
Apparently there's a story coming out now that says rich
foreigners allegedly paid upwards of ninety thousand dollars to shoot
people during human safari trips to Sarajevo in the nineteen nineties,
with an extra fee to kill children.

Speaker 2 (35:47):
She told me this, and my heart sank. I cannot
fathom the thought of someone wanting to kill someone, especially
for sport, right it's and a.

Speaker 7 (35:59):
Child, especially a child.

Speaker 8 (36:01):
Yep says. The investigation was sparked after an Italian writer
alleged he had uncovered evidence that wealthy gun enthusiasts dubbed
Sniper Taurus, would pay Bosnian serve forces for the chance
to gun down residents at random during the four year
siege of the city.

Speaker 2 (36:14):
So my response to that is, I can't imagine having
having the desire to kill another person. Oh especially not
even especially in sport mode like you're out on safari
trying to kill them. No, it is the thought of
someone getting their jolly's out of killing a human being

(36:37):
just doesn't compete with me. It doesn't. It does with
Nate as we know.

Speaker 8 (36:43):
Right, Nate seems to have a smile on his face
as we speak.

Speaker 2 (36:47):
I'm kidding, there, goes I. Here's the thing. I don't
even know that you know that's a joke. I don't
even make fun of this because it makes me sick
to my stomach. So Ghandi and I started talking about
taking a life, yes, and I said, I can't imagine
someone who can say, okay, I'll kill someone. I don't

(37:07):
want to imagine it, but I know it's true. It happens.
So then we moved to animals. Goddhi said, well, I
heard of this other thing you can do.

Speaker 8 (37:17):
Yeah. So my cousin went to a country in East
Asia a while ago and they were at arranged shooting
different weapons and having good time. And when it was done,
they came to my cousin and his friends and said, hey,
we have this super special offer where you could shoot
a cow with basically a rocket launcher and blow it
to smithery. And my cousin was like, on what planet

(37:41):
would I or anyone ever want to do that? But
apparently this is a very popular thing that they do.

Speaker 7 (37:46):
Gosh, that's awful.

Speaker 8 (37:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (37:48):
So I so Gandhi said, would you do that? I
said no, no, I would not. I would not want
to shoot a rocket launcher at a cow.

Speaker 7 (37:56):
Ever, any animal anything.

Speaker 2 (38:00):
Killed A cow you eat and you eat. You had
a steak the other night. I mean no, no, no, no.
I don't get into the actual killing of an animal now,
you know, not at a hole.

Speaker 7 (38:09):
If I had I think if I had to killing animals.

Speaker 2 (38:11):
Okay, hold on, here we go. This is the conversation where.

Speaker 7 (38:14):
I might starve to death because I don't think I could.

Speaker 2 (38:17):
Do it, Well, just eat a lot of salad.

Speaker 7 (38:18):
Yeah, eat a lot of plants, and then I dive
from a poisonous berry.

Speaker 2 (38:22):
Or something exactly. So my question to Gone was have
you ever killed an animal a living being?

Speaker 8 (38:27):
And your answer was, I mean, of course, Like if
we're talking about bugs and stuff, for sure, I've stepped
on a bug in my life. Now, you guys all know,
I will try to catch them and release them, no
matter what they are.

Speaker 2 (38:36):
Catching, release, catch and release.

Speaker 8 (38:40):
Out of fear. A palm metal bug might still get
it because they freak me out. They're so big and
they're terrifying, and they're Yes, a palm metal bug.

Speaker 2 (38:48):
Maybe that's it.

Speaker 8 (38:49):
And I think if I had to survive, I think
I could do a fish.

Speaker 2 (38:54):
Okay, So I thought about him. Oh my god, I've
killed fish when I was a kid. I used to
fish all the time and you would have to fillay
them and we would eat them. Yeah, and I didn't,
you know, Okay, So I saw I'm not going, God, okay,
I've killed Hannim. Yeah all right, I uh, I think
that's where is that where I drew the line?

Speaker 8 (39:12):
Yeah, you said a fish is your max. You're like,
I've done it, Yes, and that's about it. I don't
think I could do anything else.

Speaker 2 (39:17):
Oh okay, lobster, lobsters, crabs, I've killed those because we Yeah, okay,
so I thought about it. I have taken life. I have.

Speaker 7 (39:26):
I think I've killed a bug. But most of the
time I'm like gandhi, you know what I say? What
if it's a mommy bug? What if they have kids?
And what if they're going to feed their kids? And
blah blah blah. That goes to my mind.

Speaker 2 (39:36):
So Scary says he would definitely kill bugs. And also
we've extinguished a mouse or two here and there. Oh, no,
you wouldn't do that. No, Scary says he would kill
a raccoon or apasta.

Speaker 7 (39:48):
Are you insane?

Speaker 2 (39:49):
If it's chewing on wires and things and destroying my property,
or if it's foaming at the mouth, or if it's rabid,
I'm sorry, it's got to go. Diamond is shaking her head. Yes, absolutely,
you would. You would kill a possum or or a raccoon.

Speaker 8 (40:04):
Hell, yeah, you are so, I'm full of it.

Speaker 2 (40:06):
Well, I would be scared to actually do it. Yeah, okay, okay,
Oh thank god, I'm so worried. There for a moment.

Speaker 8 (40:14):
This girl found a cockroach and didn't sleep in her
home for like two months. Yeah, literally, Diamond.

Speaker 7 (40:20):
That she's not the biggest lover of animals, right, Diamond,
Like she doesn't love them? Yeah, And also like, why
are we acting like we don't eat chicken?

Speaker 2 (40:28):
I know that's my point.

Speaker 7 (40:29):
But I wouldn't go and kill a chicken, like I
couldn't kill it myself. If you had to, if Spencer
and Preston's life.

Speaker 2 (40:35):
Here we go depended on it, you would chop that
chicken down.

Speaker 7 (40:38):
Dan, You're right, you are right. If it was their life.
For the chickens, I would choose them.

Speaker 2 (40:42):
Come on.

Speaker 7 (40:43):
But we had to go to a chicken farm like
a turkey farm, because there were no more turkeys in
the supermarket one Thanksgiving, so my dad went in, they
picked one, they killed it. I wouldn't need it because
that was.

Speaker 2 (40:56):
Just walking around. This is the confusing part of because
we all happily eat something that has been pre killed, right,
all right. So when I was a kid, I remember
my my dad and my brother said, let's go, let's go,
let's go hunting. They would go hunt for deer, venison, whatever.
I couldn't do it. They gave me the gun. I
tried to, I couldn't do it. My good friends are

(41:17):
out this this week in the mid in the out West.
They're shooting. They're shooting Elk or whatever. I'm not Elk.
I do know something I don't know. The Routs are
doing their big game hunting and they eat it. I
couldn't do that while that lobster out the door.

Speaker 8 (41:30):
Yeah, I can't. I can't. I can't do it.

Speaker 7 (41:32):
Don't you go back to Bambie's movie and you think
about the fact that Bambie's family doesn't come back because
someone killed Bambie's family.

Speaker 2 (41:39):
I mean really, Okay, So that's the question, you know,
And if you want to have this with your friends today,
what a festive coman is it? You are? You may
be a killer? Admit it. Admit it that you do
have you have that instinct to kill, kill that crab.
See the thing is, it's what we put different levels
of value for sure, different different beings. Like someone said

(42:03):
the earlier that they they used to pour salt on slugs.
Was it you? That was that was you? Yeah? That's
that's killing it. No I feel bad about it now,
But scarce that he would kill a fox, but only
if it was coming killed by a fox. Second, if
it was coming from a chick coming from my chicken coop,
and I was raising chickens that were laying eggs. I
don't want no way. What flora in your apartment building

(42:23):
to you live on the thirty seventh floor? Okay, what's
your chicken coop? Like they hear me out, Listen, those
pink foxes are beautiful, the ones in the zoo. I
would never ever touch a fox. But if this thing
is destroying my hens, and I had hands like eggs,
I know. But you're saying that, but you're you're not

(42:44):
doing it. And I see, first of all, you're never
going to raise hens. But yeah, yes, you know. Sometimes
it's accidental when you're driving you hit a deer or
you run over a squirrel, not intentional. There are some
people that aim for the squirrels. That's that's premeditated. That's awful.
Those people are awful people.

Speaker 8 (43:02):
I know.

Speaker 2 (43:03):
I know it's scary.

Speaker 3 (43:03):
I know.

Speaker 2 (43:04):
I grew up on a farm and I know that
they had to go out and they had to they
had to kill foxes and coyotes and things. They had
to there's otherwise, it's it's it's a murder scene. I mean,
have you ever seen everywhere in blood and it's not good?

Speaker 8 (43:19):
Yeah, I'm just picturing scary in a very Elmer Fudd
like life, gonna get you va quiet and every time
the fox gets them first.

Speaker 2 (43:30):
Fox. Yeah. Please, You're never going to be in that situation.
But if you were, I see why you would anyway.
So that's a conversation you have with your friends today.

Speaker 8 (43:40):
What a time.

Speaker 2 (43:41):
Look at that straightge eating banana. This is all very entertaining.
I was googling this whole Cambodia rocket line.

Speaker 8 (43:51):
I didn't even say that.

Speaker 2 (43:52):
I didn't you blow up a cow with a rocket,
lunture with a rocket. What animals have you killed? I
know you're you're from Eerie. I know you got you hunt?
Oh gosh, yeah all the time. Would you kill when
I was a kid, Yes, Oh a squirrel? You went
a squirrel hunt.

Speaker 8 (44:07):
To eat it?

Speaker 2 (44:07):
That's what everybody does.

Speaker 8 (44:08):
She eat it?

Speaker 2 (44:09):
Yeah, you eat the squirrel at my house.

Speaker 7 (44:11):
Feed the squirrels, and they're like pets. My husband loves squirrels.

Speaker 2 (44:15):
Or is as scary says a squirrel? I didn't know
people shot squirrels for sport. Oh, go to West Virginia. No,
it's a big thing. I mean, I love West Virginia,
but I'm goain squirrels. Why we gotta move on? You
need to know from the one and only gone.

Speaker 8 (44:29):
There's so much happening, okay. Speaker Mike Johnson says a
bill compelling the DOJ to release all of it's Jeffrey
Epstein case files will receive a vote on the House
floor next week. With the petition now reaching the two
hundred and eighteen signatures needed, Johnson is required to put
the bill on the floor soon, although he suggested he
would not use some of the extra time he was allowed.
Democratic Congresswoman at Alita Grihalva became the two hundred and

(44:52):
eighteenth signature on the discharge petition shortly after she was
sworn in Wednesday afternoon. This follows reports that Epstein repeatedly
referenced and emails to his associate Kil Maxwell, as well
as a journalist. After forty three days, the longest federal
government shutdown in history is over. Not only our government
agencies reopening, but the FAA is freezing those flight reductions

(45:14):
that have created chaos at the nation's airports. Flights were
cut at dozens of busy hubs due to staffing shortages,
as air traffic controllers had to work without pay and
many opted to call in sick and work other jobs
to make money. More cuts were planned until President Trump
signed off on ending the shutdown Wednesday night. The FAA
said it will monitor staffing levels as controllers start to
receive their back pay. And finally, tech billionaire Jack Dorsey

(45:37):
says he's bringing back a version of the social media
app Vine and calling it Divine. The six second videos
were shut down by Twitter nearly a decade ago, but
an archive was saved. Dorsey, who we know helped start Twitter,
says that creators own the copyrights to the old videos,
so the rights did not transfer to Elon Musk when
he bought Twitter. And they think this is going to
be huge. And those are your three things.

Speaker 2 (45:59):
Thank you so much. And by the way, I just
want to be very clear about something. If someone's out
there and they're shooting game for eating and whatever, that
that's you. I'm I'm just saying I wouldn't do it. Sure,
I'm not saying that you're wrong for doing it. Okay,
shooting people. Yeah, I'm against that.

Speaker 8 (46:13):
No offense, horrible for doing that.

Speaker 2 (46:15):
Interesting question here, whatever, listen to this text. Whatever company
lets you blow up the cows with the rocket launchers?
Would you let them sponsor a free money phone tap?
Our company?

Speaker 7 (46:25):
Probably?

Speaker 2 (46:25):
What our heart? Absolutely? Are you kidding me? My heart?
We're gonna name that rename our company eat heart.

Speaker 8 (46:32):
Yeah. I feel like if you listen closely, you can
hear the cold calling right now.

Speaker 2 (46:36):
I know they're calling them right now. Also, there was
another text which is great, and it was highlighted. Where
did it go? Eh? Crap, it's right here, you're talking
about this this text company is the worst conversation. Oh yeah,
I love the conversation. But I hope we all realize
that humans are the only ones that attach emotion and

(46:57):
belief to other animals When regarding killing lions and tigers
and bears, they all just eat each other. That's what
they do to survive. There's no reason why we can't
eat these things to survive and live. Okay, Look, look,
I've been on Safari many times. I've watched the Circle
of life in action. Yeah, but I'm not a lion
living on the Serengetti right, you know, and I get that,
and I'm not against it. I'm just saying I would not.

(47:20):
I can't pick up a gun and kill an animal.
I can eat an animal if someone else is killed.
That's my point. We as humans are interesting.

Speaker 8 (47:28):
Yeah, there's a level of hypocrisy that we all accept.
We know that, that's how it is. But also comparing
ourselves to animals, people do that very conveniently. Animals do
a lot of stuff that we wouldn't do.

Speaker 2 (47:38):
So let's not go there, coming up a free trip,
phone tap and blow up a cow in about fifteen minutes.

Speaker 5 (47:45):
Don't answer the phone, Elvis Duran, the Elvis Duran phone tap.

Speaker 2 (47:49):

wants the phone tap. His friend to Amy. So Amy
had to get some dental work done the other day
and asked her friend Paul to pay some unpaid parking
tickets for her because she had to get this work done.
So I'm going to call from the DMV saying, hey, Amy, uh,
you didn't pay those tickets.

Speaker 2 (48:08):

Speaker 4 (51:26):
I'm talking el.

Speaker 8 (51:28):
Sorry Elvis Duran in the Morning Show.

Speaker 2 (51:37):
Oh my god, I'm so sorry.

Speaker 8 (51:38):
Hi, ho made it?

Speaker 2 (51:42):
I had a moment to go outside and get a
little fresh breath of air or breath of fresh air,
but you know, as typical in this place. I was
like running to get to the elevator, go downstairs, and
Nate's like, you only have five minutes. You have five
minutes to get downstairs, get your breath, get back up here.
But between here and the elevators, like, hold on a second,

(52:02):
I gotta ask you about can you bring your your
calendar around? I need to see can I come back
in a minute. I just want a little little air.
They're like, oh no, no, no, you can't go. The guest
is coming up, our new friend, Kevin's coming up, and
you can't. You got you gotta meet him and say hi.
I went okay, never got my fresh air. Heavy, well,
heavy is the head that wears the crown, duran to

(52:25):
be fair, heavy is the head.

Speaker 8 (52:27):
The air around here is not that fresh, so I
think it's fresh in the buildings.

Speaker 2 (52:32):
I like, I like going outside. So uh, Kevin bame
is here and I met him in the hallway. He's
so nice and I'm so glad I didn't get my
fresh air. And you know, we were talking. He started
telling me a story about his book and how it was,
how it was sparked, and I'm like, well, I want
to talk to him for fevor. And then what happened
is scary. Ohvis, you got five seconds, yeah, I mean
five seconds, five seconds all you had, but you did it.

(52:55):
You made it all right. Deadlines?

Speaker 8 (52:57):
Deadlines five seconds is not a reasonable heads up.

Speaker 2 (53:00):
Okay, here's the issue with what we do for a living,
and not many other not many other people do it
other than if you're on the line cooking in a
restaurant because once you put it, once you fire up
a dish, he starts cooking. You got to take it
off eventually. You can't just go out for a breath
of hair and come back and maybe it's done, maybe
it's not right. What we do is live and we
go by the second. You know what I'm saying, the

(53:23):
song is over. You gotta be on. You don't have
a choice. There's no redos.

Speaker 7 (53:29):
It's live. Maybe it's live.

Speaker 2 (53:32):
So okay, so let me get back to the show.
Kevin Bame has a book out. It's called The Bottomless Cup,
The Memoir of Secrets, Restaurants and Forgiveness, And he started
talking about it in the hallway. I'm like, Okay, this
guy's fascinating. I'm in so he's coming up another story
telling moment on our show of nothing but frivolous fart jokes.

Speaker 7 (53:57):
We haven't any of those today.

Speaker 2 (54:00):
We'll tell us how good far joke.

Speaker 7 (54:01):
We had serious discussions about Christmas decorations.

Speaker 2 (54:04):
Is that what you're talking about in the hallway. Yeah,
here's my favorite part of Thursday. It's food News Thursday. Froggy,
is it in the house? You ready to go?

Speaker 3 (54:11):
Frog?

Speaker 2 (54:12):
Yes?

Speaker 8 (54:12):

Speaker 2 (54:14):
It's magically delicious, all right, Froggy. I know you've got
a lot of sales going on some seasonal food items
that are available now and now only you've got all
sorts of stuff, so it's it's your take it away.

Speaker 6 (54:26):
Yeah, you might be sitting in line at Starbucks right now,
and I'm going to tell you why. It's the busiest
day of the year at Starbucks. Because today is their
Red Cup Day. Customers can order a handcrafted holiday beverage.
You get the free collectible, reusable red Holiday cup at
participating locations. And yes, it is the busiest day of
the year now. Customers get a free cup whether you
order in person, through the drive through, on the app,

(54:47):
or through the Starbucks delivery on DoorDash, grub hubbery reads.
And also this year now, if you bring the cup
back during the holiday, you get a ten cent discount
on all of their drinks and you receive double stars
on your orders on your Starbucks rewards. So it is
a busy day at Starbucks.

Speaker 8 (55:04):
But one thing about that, they are striking today also
on the busiest day, so it might take you a
little longer to get some of these things.

Speaker 2 (55:10):
Leave it to Dotty like ruin everything, not running it.

Speaker 8 (55:12):
I'm just letting you know, if you're going to get

McDonald's is. They've done it again. They brought back the McRib.

picky about what I eat these days and not really,
the McRib is always there. It's all about it, I know.

Speaker 3 (55:55):
It still is.

but it's you know, stamped into the shape a pape
of ribs. It has got pickles and that barbecue sauce
on there. It's fabulous. Back to you.

limited edition candy cane opener this year.

a fan over a candy cane, But no. Brox is

To are you?

Speaker 2 (57:57):
Are you ready for the countdown? Always? What do you

America's favorite side dishes at Thanksgiving? According to Campbell's Okay,

Number two is mashed potatoes engraving.

Speaker 2 (58:30):
Number one.

Speaker 6 (58:31):
Whether you call it dressing or stuffing, that is number one.

Speaker 2 (58:41):
I gotta say. This food news report from Froggy was
I think, in my opinion, one of the best we've
ever had. It had it was, it was varied, It
was very well scripted and talked about. The stories. Were
there standing ovation, standing.

Speaker 6 (58:54):
Ovation, thank you, thank you, mommy and myself a standing ovation.

Speaker 2 (58:58):
You give yourself a standing okay, well balanced. This would
have been a very beautiful plate to see. It was
why do you do more like that? Yeah? Why can't
you be more like that? Exactly? Rud news perfect? Let's
do round the room? Wait where around the room? And music?
Scary there is? I love it though, Foggy you went
in the world for that. Hey, I know you may
have to run on a second, so let's get you

(59:19):
on there around the room first. It's more foggy, more
foggy all the time. I learned that yesterday. When your
wife is in when you think she could be in
a mood, that is not the time to ask her
are you in a mood? Just letting you know? Does
that idea? Does it ruin it?

Speaker 3 (59:36):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (59:36):
Well, because I could tell she was not having the
best day, and then it was turning around. She was
kind of taking it again and going at me about
something and I'm like, wait a second, are you in
a mood? And then bang, that was it. That's all
it needed. It was like it was like light the
fuse and run. So asking someone if they're in the
mood puts them in the mood. Yeah, yeah, no, not
that mood. No, if they're in a bad mood and
you say hey, are you in a mood? It triples

(59:58):
maybe quadruples the mood. You shouldn't say hey, are you
in a mood? I know when you want them to
be in the mood. No, no, no, no, no, definitely, But
how do I know if you're in a bad mood? Well,
how do I ask? What's the proper way.

Speaker 2 (01:00:11):
To ask you? You know that's why you asked are
you horny? No? No, I didn't know she was in
bad mood.

Speaker 7 (01:00:18):
When Lisa is in a bad mood, don't even ask.

Speaker 8 (01:00:21):
Why would you ask?

Speaker 7 (01:00:22):
You know her?

Speaker 2 (01:00:22):
I'm so confused.

Speaker 7 (01:00:24):
Leave her alone.

Speaker 8 (01:00:24):
I feel like we're having two different conversations at this time.

Speaker 2 (01:00:26):
I will tell you, I know, I'll tell you this.
I know people who are in more of a sexy
time mood when they're in a bad mood because they
really bang it out.

Speaker 7 (01:00:34):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (01:00:35):
Really well, yeah, I wish that was the case too.
All right, well, thank you, thanks all about being in
the mood. So was she in the mood or no,
in a mood? In a mood? Yes, she was in
the mood. Ye okay, Producer Sam, what's up with you?

Speaker 8 (01:00:47):
I was betrayed yesterday. Guys.

Speaker 9 (01:00:49):
Buy my dog and her poop bag, and this is
the first time it's ever happened. But the worst experience
has happened to me. You go to clean it up
and the bag does not do its job of supporting
and wrapping around.

Speaker 8 (01:01:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:01:00):
So I just walked home with my hand extended far
away from me, trying not to vomit the entire time.

Speaker 8 (01:01:05):
Has that happened to you ever? Dog Dad? Elvis?

Speaker 2 (01:01:08):
I don't know. I think my dog's poops are smaller
than yours.

Speaker 9 (01:01:10):
That's probably, that is probable. She is a pit bullboxer.
She just let them loose. But I have never been
more upset and raged. I was this close to writing
a letter to the company.

Speaker 2 (01:01:18):
What happened? Did to have a hole in it?

Speaker 8 (01:01:20):
Yeah? It just ripped right through.

Speaker 2 (01:01:22):
Yeah, Yeah, got a double bag back.

Speaker 8 (01:01:25):
I'm the double bag from now on the trail.

Speaker 2 (01:01:27):
Thanks for sharing. Right after food News I had to purge.
You know, hey, what's going on there, Danielle.

Speaker 7 (01:01:31):
So this is for people who wear eyeliner, especially the
little pencils that you twist up every now and then,
the little like point of the pencil might break off
and fall somewhere in the bathroom or wherever you're putting
your eyeliner on. Find it right away, because if you don't,
and it's like a dark black, you're gonna find it everywhere.
I couldn't find the damn thing that fell on the floor,

(01:01:53):
and I wound up stepping in it. And when I
tell you, it was all over the rug, it was
all over clothes, it was all over my hands. It
was a disaster, and it's very hard to get out.
So if you drop a little tip of your eyeliner
on the floor. Don't stop until you find where it went,
because if not, you're gonna wind up with a disaster.

Speaker 2 (01:02:13):
Scary to hear that, all right, very important.

Speaker 7 (01:02:15):
This is the highlighter people out there.

Speaker 3 (01:02:17):
I wear.

Speaker 2 (01:02:19):
Shit, right, Hey, what's going on there? Hey see this
shirt I'm wearing? And we love that shirt? Thank you.
It's not new, it's all I just haven't worn it
because i've been fat. How about that happened?

Speaker 3 (01:02:36):
You?

Speaker 2 (01:02:36):
Skinny shirt? Everybody listening? You guys all have that shirt
or that pair of pants or some article of clothing. Everything.
It's too tight. I'm gonna fit back into that one day.
Well guess what this guy did, Thank you very much.
He can't high five you.

Speaker 6 (01:02:52):
He can't. He's not at that point yet. He's got
to keep the arms down on your shirt. Does this
mean I can have your fat shirts? You can have
my fet shirts?

Speaker 7 (01:03:02):
Ryan seacrestalf for do his fat suits.

Speaker 2 (01:03:04):
Oh god, that's right. No, that's when I lost weight. No,
he said, Oh you've lost weight, now you can fit
into my suits. Do you want some old suits? Yeah?
But no, I don't want your stupid old suits. It's
like Ryan remember that. He's like, man, you look you
look great, You've lost all that weight. I've got some
suits for you. I don't want them, but thank you.

(01:03:25):
You're very kind. Hey, Skeartery, what's up. So survey came
out a few days ago that thirty of gen z
feel that cash is cringe. It's outdated, it's out of touch.
They don't want to use cash the wholy use and listen.
I love a good electronic payment, but I have actually
gone back to using cash. When it comes to tipping,
I think cringe. They love the cash though. Yeah, I'll

(01:03:48):
tell you what. Yeah, the servers, they are all about it,
so waiters, waitresses because they get it on demand, they
don't have to wait for their paychecks. It's right there.
It's obviously no, it's not taxed. Tip in cash. Okay,
I know. I don't care how you feel about cash,
tip and cash. I'm in the other day, we were
at the mall and I had a twenty dollars bill
and so for some reason it ripped in half, and

(01:04:08):
I went, it's all I had in cash. I wanted
to pay with it, and they looked at me, like,
we cannot accept time. I said, we do you have
some tape. Yeah, that's not legal to tape money, Yes
it is, of course. They had no clue. What's the
legality on that, Scottie. Taping is fine, it's fine, I know.
But if someone only takes credit cards all day, every
day and they never take cash ever, and someone some
old guy with cringey cash comes in, they don't know

(01:04:30):
what to do. Call the manager. They have to take it.
She was the manager. Really yeah, you know, I really quick.
A fun story. A friend of mine wanted my daughter
to do something cooper that she normally wouldn't do. So
he ripped a hundred dollars bill in a half, gave
her half of it and said, listen, when you complete
this task, I will give you the other half and
you tape it together and you can use it. She
has not completed it yet. Jesus. He used to do

(01:04:52):
that with call girls, didn't you. Yes, I did the
two dollar bills that I've a task for you, and
I half of one hundred ele of it you today,
all right.

Speaker 8 (01:05:03):
I had the best night last night doing two things. First,
I got to go to the American Museum of Natural History,
which is one of my favorite places in this city.
You can learn so much. There's so much to see.
There's a new dinosaur exhibit there that I had to
go check out, and I got to see a little
preview of it because they are a partner of ours.
But one of the things I got to do was
walk through that museum without anyone else.

Speaker 7 (01:05:24):
That's cool.

Speaker 8 (01:05:25):
I was so happy. I was like skipping around looking
at things. There's so many things you can actually touch.
They let you touch it, says touch it. So that
was a really good time. And then I went and
checked out a new restaurant that Elvis was talking about yesterday,
La Musina Limosina. It was amazing.

Speaker 2 (01:05:40):
Now I have to say it, you have to say it.

Speaker 8 (01:05:42):
Go ahead.

Speaker 2 (01:05:42):
I'm a partner, You're a partner, No, no, no, I'm an investor.
Investor yes.

Speaker 8 (01:05:47):
Yeah. So there. I was late for my reservation, so
I had to call Daddy investor to help me out
and he did, and I love you for that, so
thank you, Elvis. I had a really good time there,
and how beautiful is it beautiful? It's a great spot,
gorgeous and the food was amazing. I brought Danielle some
of it today, YE brought her by leftovers.

Speaker 7 (01:06:04):
I got a meatball and some walk.

Speaker 2 (01:06:06):
There you go live in large.

Speaker 8 (01:06:08):
I promised her would, so I did.

Speaker 2 (01:06:10):
Is a beautiful, beautiful restaurant.

Speaker 8 (01:06:11):
It was really cool. It was packed. Oh my god.

Speaker 2 (01:06:13):
Oh good like that?

Speaker 8 (01:06:14):
Your investments doing well?

Speaker 3 (01:06:15):
Okay?

Speaker 2 (01:06:16):
Good?

Speaker 3 (01:06:17):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (01:06:17):
All right, there you go around the room, Danielle, all right,
all right, what you got going on?

Speaker 7 (01:06:21):
So Netflix is doing something pretty cool. They're opening their
first physical Netflix House in the King of Prussia Mall
in Pennsylvania, near Philly. It's described as an engaging space
where fans can play, explore, and taste their way through
beloved shows and movies. The entrance is designed like a
big red envelope like their DVDs came mail, didn't remember,
And there's an immersive experience themed dining shops and a

(01:06:44):
Todum theater for special screening. Oh so this is pretty cool.
First Traveler for the Super Mario Galaxy movie is out
and that is premiering April third in your theaters. Chadwick Boseman,
can you believe he has been gone since twenty twenty
where he died at forty three years old from colon cancer.
So he is being honored and he's getting a Hollywood

(01:07:06):
Walk of Fame star and his wife. His widow will
be accepting the award. It all goes down November twentieth,
and of course we're going to honor him, celebrate his
extraordinary legacy. Let's talk about Lady Gaga. She was doing
her Mayhem Ball tour in Antwerp and she paused her
performance because there was a fan in distress. She said,
wait a minute, stop, stop, stop, Is everybody okay? She said,

(01:07:29):
everybody get quiet so we can hear the person that
needs the help. They got them water, they took them backstage,
and they made sure that the person was feeling better.
So I love when artists do that and they stop
and make sure you're okay. Tom felt and returned to
the role that made him famous. He made his Broadway
debut as Draco Malfoy in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child,
and the crowd went crazy. He got a thirty second

(01:07:53):
ovation just for stepping on the damn stage. So cool,
and then his curtain call, they went nuts. And then
I saw a video of him after the show. He
went to the stage door and met the fans and
he stopped them from cheering, and he said, I just
want to thank you guys for being here for me.
It was so sweet and so nice of him to
do that, So pretty cool to see him up there
on that stage.

Speaker 8 (01:08:14):

Speaker 5 (01:09:39):
Live from the Mercedes Benz Interview Lounge.

Speaker 2 (01:09:43):
Got a question for you. Are you a fan of
the Food TV Network? Yeah? Yeah, yeah? How come?

Speaker 7 (01:09:49):
Because it's yummy?

Speaker 8 (01:09:50):
It combines my two favorite things, what food and TV?

Speaker 2 (01:09:53):
Okay? Yeah see, I think that network is good and bad.
The good part is it highlights a lot of things
we never would have known about in our everyday experiences
with restaurants. This isn't that and cooks and food. The
bad thing is I think it shows restaurants and that
business in a light that's not real. It really isn't.

Speaker 3 (01:10:13):
So.

Speaker 2 (01:10:13):
Kevin Bame is here. He's got this book out called
The Bottomless cup, of course, endorsed by one of my
favorite people, Will Jadara. We were talking about that earlier.
Kevin covers his life how he got where he is,
and you're gonna find out in a second where he
is and you're gonna be amazed. But also, there's nothing
wrong with highlighting the fact that the restaurant business is

(01:10:34):
full of these gift to get very damaged people. And
I think that's the reason it's great. I mean, I
don't know, Kevin, explain this to us and talk to
us about this book. Well, first of all, I tried
to strip all that Food Network varnish off of it
inside my book. I wanted to get to the truth.
But yeah, damaged people are really good at the restaurant business.
Because if you've had real trauma in your life, getting

(01:10:58):
like twenty plate pickup or get quadruples sat in the station,
it's like, so, what what does that stuff mean?

Speaker 7 (01:11:04):
Yeah, I have no idea.

Speaker 2 (01:11:05):
A twenty plate pickup, twenty plates, twenty plate pickup means
you're on the line, a chef is calling for the
food and you're like, you have to cook eight of
those twenty dishes and get him up in a window. Okay,
or quadruple sat as you get sat with four tables
within like five minutes.

Speaker 8 (01:11:20):
Wow, which was always exciting. I worked at a restaurant
for four years, so I could have some damage going on, but.

Speaker 2 (01:11:25):
It was applebeans, get it right, okay whatever.

Speaker 8 (01:11:29):
I'm not the same as these very high you know high.

Speaker 2 (01:11:34):
I wanted at the restaurant to be so slammed. It
felt like I was flying the plane, and right before
I crashed it, I pulled the nose up and I
survived it. It was an adrenaline rush that I love.
It gave me like the shot of dopamine. And at
the same time that's that's a sign of a somewhat
damaged person. A somewhat damage person, I know. But you're

(01:11:55):
here in a room full of them right now, so
you can't own this. You're you're my favorite people. Oh
I love you said something to me in the room
down the hall of the Sandals Caribbean Green Room. If
you must ask for my name, you said something. This
book opens with this, and then the story begins. Can
you share that with everyone?

Speaker 3 (01:12:14):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:12:14):
The first line of the book is in the summer
of nineteen eighty nine, halfway through a Western omlet and
a cup of coffee. I found out that I wasn't
really Kevin dam So it opens with a mystery of sorts.
An older gentleman found me in Springfillinois, took me out
to breakfast and said, your whole childhood's alive. Got a
story to tell you. Who was this gentleman? Turns out

(01:12:35):
he was my father? Whoah, my god, who else has
hard nipples right now? Seriously, that's awesome. I mean not
for you, I mean you know what. It's awesome for
writing a book.

Speaker 3 (01:12:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:12:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:12:48):
What was your first reaction when he said that I'm
your fauther?

Speaker 2 (01:12:51):
Well, we didn't really use the word process back then. Yeah,
but I was processing. I remember a server came up
and said would you like more coffee? And I'm like,
would you get the heck out of my face? Because
I was. I was rewinding all the stuff that had
happened in my life and it was starting to make
sense to wow. Wow, But looking back nineteen eighty nine,
eighty nine, one of the most important moments of your

(01:13:12):
life probably yeah. And what it ended up doing was
it gave me permission to kind of follow my dream
because I just felt like I could. I there was
no guardrails in my life anymore. So, you know, I
went to college, and if you really want to feel
like a moron, have two of your housemates at college

(01:13:33):
be a future astronaut and a future Pulitzer Prize finalist.
When was Dave Eggers? When was MIKEB. Hopkins one of
the most important astronauts in history? So I got there,
I already thought maybe that I wasn't that smart, and
then I really thought that I wasn't that smart. I'd
either have used a roommate to be honest. Oh thanks, well, okay, Kevin, Okay,

(01:13:54):
let's let's let's let's let's go fast forward here.

Speaker 11 (01:13:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:13:57):
Yeah, You've opened restaurants in tending credible cities in America.
Name them go oh Jesus, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, Seaside, Florida, Springfield, Illinois,
Saint Petersburg, Florida, Nashville, Denver, Okay, Silicon Valley, James Beard,
Winter and nominee. How many times I was in the company.
We've been nominated twenty two times. I was nominated five

(01:14:19):
times for Best Restaurant Tour in America and I won
in twenty nineteen. Right, how many dinners have you served
in your restaurants like ten or twelve millions? Served like
two million people dinner? The number is eighteen million.

Speaker 4 (01:14:31):
Oh, there you go.

Speaker 2 (01:14:32):
That's how I missed it.

Speaker 7 (01:14:33):
You don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:14:34):
So we're opening a restaurant and it's a fascinating thing
at what a ballet And there was actually a special
our friend Will they were talking about opening his one
of his incredible restaurants here in New York City. It
was called seven Days, I think seven days and days out.
And so they give you the last seven days before
the opening of this restaurant, and it's the anxiety you

(01:14:54):
get for them is like incredible. But the feeling of
opening this restaurant for you, what's that like? Is it
like it's definitely another rush of sorts. Well, I talk
about this in the book that I was bipolar, but
a bipolar denier and when I opened up a restaurant,
I would get this dopamine rush from opening and I'm like, oh,
that's happiness. Great, give me more of that. So why

(01:15:17):
does this kid from springf Illinois end up opening up
fifty restaurants over the last thirty years, Because, like a
heroin addict, I kept wanting that rush again of opening
up a restaurant. So you know, Anthony Burdain was great
at talking about the shenanigans going on in kitchens. Right,
he was the hitge shenanigish. If there's such a word
there is now he was awesome. I mean I had
dinner with him once. He was amazing. Oh wow, So

(01:15:40):
how crazy have you seen it or have you participated
in these antics that happen back of house in restaurants? Well,
I was an aggressive drinker and I was very good
at it. Right, Tequila Kevin was definitely a verse. So
you were effed up on the line. No, no, no.
As a chef, never during work, right was I messed up?
I was only after so service was very important to me.

(01:16:04):
So during service I was straight as an arrow. I
wouldn't I wouldn't hit it. In my restaurant in Springfield
when I put on Stevie wonder As, that was the
shift from me being completely sober to pouring myself a
mega pint of cabernet. Okay, and then then the antics
would flow, and then you'd be up all night. You
go to the after hours places, or you'd just go

(01:16:25):
home and drink. What would you do. I'll give you
the schedule, Okay. I would get up in the morning,
I would run six miles. What time, about six or
seven am. I'd go to the restaurant. I would work
till about three o'clock in the afternoon. Then I would
go home. I would change clothes, I'd come back to
the restaurant. We'd close about midnight. I would drink till
three in the morning, and I would do it again.

(01:16:45):
I only had to sleep like three hours a night. Wow,
I was a maniac. It sounds like I do not
miss that guy. That guy's been retired.

Speaker 7 (01:16:54):
So yeah, I was gonna say, when did what happened
to make you realize I can't do this anymore?

Speaker 2 (01:17:00):
Well, there's a rock bottom moment. You know what was it?
If you suicide attempt, Wow, that's bottom. If you if
you can survive rock bottom, which most people don't, it's
a gift because if you can come out of it
and you can say, wait a second, that wasn't just
a bad night. And I'm going to be as ambitious

(01:17:21):
about my mental health and my happiness as I've been
restaurants all these years. And that's what happened. I wrote
a list of twenty things that I had to do
to change my life, and they were pretty big things,
and I did them, was now happy. Oh my god. Really,
I didn't walk a dining room for like six months.
That was the hardest thing. Restaurant had always been my

(01:17:43):
life's blood and I had to take a moment away
from my restaurants. But there were a lot of things
on there. Stop drinking, go to the Hoffmann Institute, get
therapy for the first time in my life, get medicated.
How long ago was this? Generally four years ago. So
Kevin Bame is here. The book is called The Bottomless Cop.
I cannot wait to crack this book open. By the way,

(01:18:04):
it's not all about just being totally damaged. There's there's
fun stuff that happens when one is damaged, Like living
in your car. That's not fun. You were living in
your car, Yeah, that's a great car to live in.
No one because a Suzuki Samurai with with with a
ripped with a riffed soft top. It was like, I mean,
a Lesbie wouldn't even drive that. So anyway, so you

(01:18:27):
were in your Suzuki Samurai with the ripped top. How
did you end up living there?

Speaker 3 (01:18:31):
Well?

Speaker 2 (01:18:31):
How did you lose everything else? Well, first of all,
I say the book. You know, the first time you
live in your car, you think this is going to
make a really good book someday. The second time you
live in your car, you think there's probably not going
to be a book. Okay, but how did you end
up in this? Kevin Well? So I drop out of college,
I go down there and I think I'm going to
work in restaurants. Nobody hires me. I ended up working

(01:18:52):
in an amusement park. I move in with a guy
who works at the amusement park, catch him stealing from me,
and his name was on the lease, so I had
to move out. I had no money, and I'm living
and living in my jeep, and like most of the time,
I would get out and get my sleeping back out
and I would sleep on the beach. And one night
I woke up and because a woman was screaming at

(01:19:12):
her kids, says, hey, get away from that. And I
woke up, like, what's the scary thing that she's screaming about?
And the scary thing was me, Oh, you were fa
Oh wow, she's recoiling a horror because you're a thing.
Get away from the homeless guy. So, uh, how did
you get out of your car? Well? I had this
idea to write this beautiful piece of fiction that was
my new resume. I wrote this resume. Then you lies,

(01:19:33):
all lies, all lies that were all restaurants that have
mysteriously gone out of business so they couldn't call for
a reference check.

Speaker 1 (01:19:39):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (01:19:40):
And I walked into the most fine dining restaurant in
town and I was flailing in the interview. He asked me,
he goes, Kevin, what's your favorite grape bridle? I don't
know what grape viridle was. Welch's there you go. That's
what I should have said. And the owner came by
and she pinched my cheek and she goes, I like
this one, Mike, hire this one. Thank god, he goes,
I guess he got the job. Kit What an angel

(01:20:01):
she came down? Is she Alice? Alice Masker? She was
my angel? Hey, Alice, Hi, Alice, whatever you are. That's awesome. Okay,
So uh the fun in the kitchen, it's crazy. It's
a rollercoaster that never stops. It's like sitting in an
electric chair if you're working the line. Or that's about right.
So what things did you want to stop down and

(01:20:23):
just laugh your ass off it? But you didn't have time,
Like what's the craziest things there? There was a line
cook when I worked at my first restaurant named Tom,
and Alice was he goes, guys, whatever you do, keep
alcohol away from Tom. Tom was our best line cook, Like, well,
it's kind of like, you know, don't give Hannibal lect
or anything sharp right now. It was like, keep it

(01:20:43):
away from him. And Tom walked up to the new
bartenders like, yeah, you know, I'm I'm gonna I need
to make a bourbon sauce for for this apple pie
I'm doing, And he gave him a bottle of bourbon,
and halfway through the shift, Tom fell on the line
with an empty bottle of bourbon. Oh that's hilarious. Kevin,
my favorite text just came to my favorite text. I

(01:21:05):
never knew Kevin Bacon on a restaurant. I looked in
a car. It's Kevin. No, let's talk about my rolling
footloose Kevin bame but close. Yeah, can you tell.

Speaker 7 (01:21:18):
Us about your oven blowing up? Like in your first restaurant, my.

Speaker 2 (01:21:21):
Very first service, I reached down to put a piece
of bread in the oven and the pilot light had
gone out, and the oven blew up my face and
caught my hair on fire. And so my first service
lasted about thirty five minutes. An ambulance came took me
to the hospital. Oh no, And I knew it was
bad when the guy who's room, there's a grandpa in
the room with me and his grandson walked in. He

(01:21:42):
looked at me and he was like, whoa, what happened
to that guy? I was like, uh oh, So my
second service, my face was completely scabbed and I had
to shave my head.

Speaker 8 (01:21:51):
And you actually showed up and presented yourself to people
that way.

Speaker 2 (01:21:54):
That's the restaurant business. Hey, well, let's talk about the
dangers in the kitchen. Gandhi asked the question you always
ask our favorite chips.

Speaker 8 (01:21:59):
Yeah. I think every chef has the same scar. I
want to know if you have it. Do you have
a burn mark on your forearm anywhere?

Speaker 2 (01:22:04):
I don't because I wasn't on the line that much.
But I do have a pretty wicked scar from shucking
an oyster where I stabbed my where I stabbed my hand,
where I have this wicked scary You got one, yes,
Shucky Oysters is a dangerous business.

Speaker 4 (01:22:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:22:17):
I don't think think about how chaotic and dangerous it
actually is, though to be in a restaurant, unless you've
been in a restaurant and been in the industry. And
I think everybody should work in a restaurant for a
year of their life. You learned so much.

Speaker 2 (01:22:29):
That was a hot take on subway takes recently, was it. Yeah,
it was like everybody should be required to work in
a restaurant. Really, do you want a little dose of humanity?
Because you have to learn how to deal with everybody,
the good people and the bad people. And I've seen
them both.

Speaker 3 (01:22:43):
Man.

Speaker 2 (01:22:43):
This is front and back of house, front end, back
of house. So there's a place downtown called Walkers. It's
it's great old Irish pub restaurant. I used to go there.
That was our living room. We did lunch and dinner
and stay there and drink and eat all day. One day,
this host wasn't there and a couple walked in. I
said to my friend the bartender, my friend the waitress.
I'll take care of them. I know how to do it.

(01:23:04):
Got some got some menus, sat them at a table,
and that's what would you like some water. What kind
of water you want? You know whatever. The guy looked
at me and said, do you even know what you're doing?
You don't look like you should be even working here.
Who are you? We come here every day? Are you
new here? You just got a rude it's snatty to
me and I just put the menus down and I

(01:23:26):
walked away. I will never be able to do this.
People are mean. You heard it here first few Elvis
Durant is going to come Matred d at book a restaurant.
He's going to be amazing. You see, I'm a great
like guy walking around and making sure everyone's good, but
I can't handle mean people. But there are people who
come to your restaurants who are just evil. They're want
to know the meanest celebrity that ever can dude, Roger

(01:23:51):
Waters was the meanest person, the meanest. He walked into
the restaurant and we were getting his take, sat and ready,
and my partner just said to me, he goes, hey,
how was San Diego last night? And he just like
put his hands on the host stand and looked as
he goes, would you just give me my effing table?

Speaker 8 (01:24:13):
At that point? Would you not say you know what. No,
I don't think I want you in here. I don't
want to serve you.

Speaker 2 (01:24:18):
I said, yes, sir, mister Waters, of course you would. Wait,
who is Roger Waters?

Speaker 7 (01:24:24):
So you're better than me. I couldn't even handle McDonald's
because people were nasty to me and yelling at me
about a you know, a filet of fish and we
had a lot of issues.

Speaker 2 (01:24:34):
The kindest person ever, and I got to serve them
several times, Kevin, the restaurant business is a tough business.
You seem to have navigated at will. Congratulations, who's that Obama?
No offense?

Speaker 7 (01:24:49):
I got it.

Speaker 8 (01:24:51):
He was the nicest of everybody.

Speaker 2 (01:24:53):
Oh, he's just he was a prince. I mean so many,
so many nice, incredible people.

Speaker 7 (01:24:58):
You get more nice than not nice?

Speaker 2 (01:24:59):
Yeah, more nice than not nice. I want to talk
before we talk about you being attacked by a bobcat.
I need to ask you a question, and anyone and
everyone listening right now. You can apply this to your
industry or your family, whatever. And it's about mental health.
You've sort of skated around and sometimes through the mental

(01:25:20):
health bush, and I want to know more about it
as it applies to you, because I know this is
a universal conversation. And I remember fifteen years ago talking
about mental health on our show. It was almost like it.
You would whisper it, like back in the nineteen seventies,
you would never say breast cancer out loud. It was
breast cancer, right, mental health. Thank God, we've pulled the
rug up. We don't have to brush it under there anymore.

(01:25:40):
Talk about how it applies to you, Yeah, I mean generationally.
I mean the generation before us was so repressed, and
so I wanted to break the chain. And my mom
was bipolar, my mom's mom was bipolar. And unfortunately, for
the first fifty years of my life, I didn't grab
the low hanging fruit. I never went and got therapy.
I went out therapy once when I was twenty six,

(01:26:01):
and she told me that I might be bipolar, and
I told her to f off, and I walked out
of the room because I was such a denier of it.
So when I finally went in and I got medicated,
it's the one regret I really have in my life.
It was like, Kevin, you idiot, You could have done
this twenty years ago. And so we talk about gyms
all the time. There's the workout culture is massive. We

(01:26:24):
don't talk enough about mental health and talking to somebody.
Your relationship with your therapist is different than any relationship
you'll ever have. And my therapist said very early on,
she said, Kevin, there's no winning at therapy. You don't
need to make me like you, just tell me the truth.
And that relationship for me has been so beneficial. So
the combination of that and getting medicated. And so that's

(01:26:48):
my purpose in life moving forward is talking to people
about how happy, how happy I become because I threw
the kitchen sink at my own happiness and I have
pillars from my own happiness. Now, One do I have
purpose in my life? It is my reasoning behind that
purpose a noble One is it not for vengeance or
ego or capitalism? Two do I encounter the people that

(01:27:11):
I like and love while I'm doing that purpose? And three?
Do I like myself as the protagonist in my own story?
So your story in this book tells us how through
your journey it does conquered or at least admitted to
needing to conquer a lot of these things. Percent So
what is it about the restaurant business that attracts this

(01:27:32):
crazy crowd of people who are just definitely edgy. A
lot of people and I don't know how to describe.
I mean, you can better describe it.

Speaker 4 (01:27:41):
Well.

Speaker 2 (01:27:41):
I found my people when I went into restaurants. I go,
wait a second, these people know a lot about food
and one at art and music and they're dangerous. I
was like, and they go out till three in the morning. Yes,
I'm in, give me more. And so I loved them.
I had this instant love affair with them, and I
was just like, Yeah, these are my favorite people on earth,

(01:28:01):
and I think they're still my favorite people on Earth.
It's fun and you can make good money and it's
like throwing a party every night and you guys come
in and mess it all up and we clean it
up and we do it again the next day. That's
my life.

Speaker 8 (01:28:13):
Wow, No day's the same. I think every single restaurant,
no matter what the restaurant is, could have a reality
show and I would watch it all of them.

Speaker 2 (01:28:22):
There you go, my life in a nutshell. My friend
Michael Eely's an actor. Oh yeah, I'm super handsome fella.
He was in a play here in New York and
the play with the stage was a basketball court and
he at the end of the play, and there's a
man in an apartment who had supposedly bet on the game.
At the end of the play, Michael Eely gets the ball.
He takes a twelve foot jump shot, he makes it.

(01:28:42):
They celebrate. Play ends. First night, Philip Seymour Hoffman came
to see the play, and when Michael left out the
side door, Philip Seamore Hoffman standing there with his arms crossed,
and he goes, what happens if you miss it? And
Michael goes, it's a different ending, and he goes, what's
the other ending you got? You got to come in
a night when I miss And when he told me
that story, I was like, that's my life. I don't

(01:29:04):
know if the women at table forty three are going
to have the best nighter of their life. I don't
know if they're going to catch their hair on fire
on the candle. But I've written both endings, so I'm
a script writer every night and I don't know what's
going to happen. I love that part.

Speaker 8 (01:29:17):
So nine to five would kill you. This is what
you need. You need the diversity in.

Speaker 2 (01:29:21):
The I'd already be dead.

Speaker 8 (01:29:23):
Okay. Oh wow, Well, I'm glad you don't.

Speaker 2 (01:29:25):
If I worked If I yes, if I worked in
a cubicle at you know, wherever, that's just not for me.
You know, I was not I was not wired for that.
Well in a restaurant isn't for and not for everyone
as well. You know it's yang. Hey, talk about hospitality,

(01:29:45):
you actually explain to people what hospitality is versus good
food in a restaurant. Hospitality is how you make people feel.
As Will Gadera says, services black and white, hospitality is color, yeah,
which is really beautiful. I tell a story all the
time of a man who came out on his anniversary
and he brought a bottle of nineteen sixty one Chateau

(01:30:06):
La feet Rothschild with him and it was represented his
dad being there that night because that was his dad's
gift on his wedding night and this is his twenty
fifth anniversary. I opened the bottle to decant it before
everybody showed up, and it was corked, and the man
cried hysterically in front of me, and I was like, hey,
what if we replace it with one of these other
bottles and he's like, no, no, no, they're going to

(01:30:27):
know that ninety seven silver oak is not the sixty
one la feet. I go, I know a guy down
the street. A guy down the street sold me a
bottle of sixty six la feet for one hundred bucks.
I came back, I threw away, I decanted the sixty six,
threw it away, rinsed out the bottle of sixty one,
put it in the decanter. Just then the people showed up.
We poured the wine for everybody. He told the story

(01:30:48):
of his father. Everybody cried, and everybody talked about the
greatest glass of wine they ever had in their entire life.
And the man came up to me and he whispered
in my ear. He goes, you're a beautiful liar, young man. Oh,
my dad would have loved this. That's hospitality. That's hospitality,
yes wow. But you can find it in all sorts
of restaurants, like a Wendy's, for instance. People people have

(01:31:12):
always asked me, what's my greatest deal of all time? Here,
I kind of jokingly say, Wendy's. I go to this
Wendy's in Carlon Villa, Illinois, nineteen ninety seven. I walk
in the door and there's a woman pursued to the front.
She goes, gentlemen, welcome to Wendy's Hamburgers. I go, thank you.
I've never seen a matre date a fastbig restaurant before.
Thank you, Joan. I walk up to the front and
the guy up there tells me about the spicy chicken sandwich,

(01:31:34):
like he was working at a Michelin three star restaurant.
How did you describe this chicken se He was like, sir,
we have a brand new spicy chicken sandwich and he's
going to light you up today. And I was like, okay, fine,
I'm in let's do it. And so then when we
go sit down, the woman who was greeting was wiping
the errant penne pastas from the superbar into a napkin,

(01:31:55):
and then she refilled my water with a pitcher and
I looked at the guy next to me. I go,
what the hell is going on? He goes, I think
we're dying. I think we're dining at the greatest fastod
restaurant in history. So I went and I asked for
the manager and they goes, there are problems, sir. I go, no, no,
there's no problem, and he comes out and I said, sir,
I just got to tell you You've got the best

(01:32:15):
fast food restaurant I've ever seen, and he goes well,
as you can see, we're very proud of it. And
they had won like the Golden Windy's Award as the
best Wendy's in America. And I came out of there
and I was like, Okay, everybody does cover versions. Most
people don't have a job that's unique to themselves. And
I started thinking about the Beatles. You know, the Beatles
were the standard bearer of every song they'd ever done

(01:32:38):
up till with a little help for my friends. And
if you listen to Joe Cocker's version, even the Beatles
said it was a superior version. And so I went
back to my restaurant that night and said, hey, guys,
we're just doing cover versions, but we're going to do
the best cover version anybody's ever seen. And so I
still get inspired by that guy Wendy's who just said
I got the same a frame building, I got the
same menu, but I'm gonna mind something unique out of it.

Speaker 7 (01:33:00):
It's so cool.

Speaker 8 (01:33:01):
Is there a quality that you cannot teach people, but
when you see it in someone, you're like, that's it.
That's what I want to hire. As far as hospitality.

Speaker 2 (01:33:07):
Goes, I asked two questions when I interview somebody, and
the first one is do you really like to take
care of people? And I know when somebody's be asking me,
and you know. The second question I ask is just
would you have for breakfast this morning? Because I just
want to hear him talk? But it's kindness. Can you talk?
And can you sell me that you're kind because that's

(01:33:30):
what you want to feel like when you're out to dinner,
it's like somebody's on your side because bad things will happen.
Right you walk in and they're like, we're running twenty
five minutes behind, but they go, sorry're weuarning twenty five
minutes behind? That's not good.

Speaker 3 (01:33:41):
No.

Speaker 2 (01:33:41):
But if you say, I am so sorry, we're twenty
five minutes behind. But I'm going to walk you to
the bar, We're going to find you a little space.
I'm gonna get you a drink and bear with us
and be patient. I'm gonna get you down as soon
as I can.

Speaker 7 (01:33:52):
That makes the biggest difference in the world.

Speaker 8 (01:33:54):
Yeah, So who in this room do you think is
selling kindness versus is actually just kind?

Speaker 2 (01:34:00):
You are so kind, You are so kind and you
and I are fast friends, all right, as an edge
to him, but I like it. Oh, he is all, Oh,
you know nothing yet up like a Wendy's Chicken sandwich.
You just wait. I have to tell you who this
gentleman is. This is Kevin Bain and his book, The

(01:34:22):
Bottomless cop I cannot wait. I'm going to rip into
it today. We were begging for early copies because God
forbid we spend a dollar on our own. I have
my coffee now, and if I would love for you
to sign it, and I just love that everything you
talked about today, even though it's very restaurant centric and
hospitality of centric, it can apply to any everything you

(01:34:42):
are doing in your life. As you drive to work
and listen to this absout freaking lutely, you will find
that with almost everyone we interview in this room. And
if they do not deliver that to you, then we
didn't do our job to get it out of them.
But we didn't have to do anything. It was effortless
with Kevin because you just this is this book. It's
you gave it some great examples, but I know there's
a lot more left to uncover here. It's a lot

(01:35:03):
of nuggets in this book, guys, and so, like I said,
you know, when I started this process, I wanted to
get to the truth. And fortunately, my life's been pretty entertaining.
I say in the book the beginning of the book,
I've forrest gumped my way through life. I've got to
encounter a lot of interesting people. And listen, all of

(01:35:23):
us in this room are the sum of everything that
we've ever encountered, everyone and everything. And so I'm really
glad that I went through all that stuff because now
at fifty five years old, I'm super happy and life's
been interesting and I'm grateful.

Speaker 7 (01:35:37):
If you listen on audible. Is it available on audible?

Speaker 2 (01:35:40):
Audible comes out November twenty fife, you I narrate it.
Have you sad for that?

Speaker 3 (01:35:45):
Yet?

Speaker 2 (01:35:45):
I do. I've sat for that all of sudden. It's
a rough thing. I had to do that myself, and
I do all kinds of voices in it. So there
you go.

Speaker 7 (01:35:53):
It's different than reading the I tell him, I tell it.

Speaker 2 (01:35:55):
I tell them make Jagger story in there, where like
Jagger and ron Wood came into the restaurant night and
you know, I get mech a glass of white wine
and I say, mister Wood, can I get you something?
He's like, is there any way you could get me
a Red Bull? And I love? I was sure, mister Wood,
until we didn't serve red Bull. So I ran two

(01:36:15):
blocks away to a Nightclub's like ninety degrees outside, and
I come back and I'm pouring the red Bull. He's like,
I'm sorry, I've been a sugar free red Bull. So
I love it. Thank you for coming in here today again,
I tell you now. We're going to post this at
Elvis Duran show on Instagram as well, so you'll see
it later if you have to revisit us at The

(01:36:36):
Bottomless Cup by Kevin Bain, a memoir of secrets, restaurants,
and forgiveness. And you've covered all three of those bases
very well today. Kevin, it's a pleasure to meet you.
Thank you absolutely. I think you're all kind people. I
think we are too. You know, three of us have
been together for thirty years during the show, thirty years.
How many restaurants are open for thirty years? A few,

(01:36:58):
I've I have a restaurant's been open twenty three years. See,
I can't believe you're over fifty. You look much younger.

Speaker 7 (01:37:03):
Than that's the same thing.

Speaker 2 (01:37:05):
Where do you know what it was? The luxury of
the Sandals green room. I know it revitalized me. It's
tropical in there, folks. It's a massage and you're not
being touched the guys. There's a masseuse in there. There's
somebody making fresh green juice. It was. It was remarkable,
the sounds of the waves here in midtime Manhattan. Fabulous

(01:37:28):
jewel was in there. So you know, this is another thing.
You know, Kevin, a famous man who has lived in
his car. One of your games, it needs to be
people who have lived in cars at one point.

Speaker 8 (01:37:39):
I'll do it. Thank you.

Speaker 2 (01:37:41):
Can I come back and co host? Sometimes guys you
can host, will take to day off. It's all oh yeah, wait,
you go to the restaurants. You be me and I'll
be you.

Speaker 8 (01:37:51):
Well, your restaurants will shut.

Speaker 2 (01:37:52):
What we do here, Yeah, what we do here is
much easier than what you do in your restaurants. I
guarantee you. Kevin, thanks again, thank you for coming in.
You guys are awesome.

Speaker 8 (01:38:01):
What's up?

Speaker 2 (01:38:02):

Speaker 2 (01:38:19):
I'm sorry, I'm eating an egg sandwich. Where Danielle go?
You get? Kevin? Our guest brought us these incredible pastries
and breakfast sandwiches. Did you try the egg sandwich?

Speaker 8 (01:38:32):
Everyone keep saying it's the greatest thing they've ever eaten.

Speaker 2 (01:38:34):
It's the second best thing I've ever put in my mouth.

Speaker 8 (01:38:37):
Oh, elaborate.

Speaker 2 (01:38:42):
Kevin went out there and did that a whole thing
that I love. He ate the heart out of the
semon role because you know that's that's the best part.
It's the most moist cinnamon. You don't never yet I'm
not going to touch that, te Kevin, I said, Kevin.
Kevin so good anyway, So Kevin Vain fantastic. Well we
got to do a sound. Here is what you're ready for?

(01:39:03):
Am I ready for it? And I'm ready for it?
Are you ready for am I? Can I handled it?
Am I ready for it? All right? Let's do sound?

Speaker 10 (01:39:10):
All right, let's start in Florida. So we know about Florida, man,
but now I introduce you to Florida teen. So this
team decided to take his car for a joy ride
at two thirty in the morning runed a golf course.
Listen to how much damage he caused on one hole.

Speaker 1 (01:39:26):
Of the second hole, causing about one hundred and sixty
thousand dollars in damage. A seventeen year old Atlantic high
school student confessed to causing the damage because they were bored.

Speaker 2 (01:39:37):
Didn't think there's anything else to do with two thirty
in the morning.

Speaker 1 (01:39:40):
I'll use a line that my grandmother relaid on me.
Nothing good happens enter ten.

Speaker 2 (01:39:44):
O'clock at night. Over one hundred thousand dollars worth of
damage on a golf course. Did your parents ever say
that to you? Yes, you can't go out. Nothing good
happens after.

Speaker 8 (01:39:52):
Eleven PM, And I argue that's when all the good
stuff happened.

Speaker 2 (01:39:55):
The good stuff starts around twelve thirty exactly. My dad
would say, diner, nothing happened. Nothing good happens at a
diner after midnight.

Speaker 3 (01:40:00):
Scary.

Speaker 2 (01:40:01):
You're producing the show, but you keep going out to
get any more food.

Speaker 8 (01:40:03):
Dude, how many of those did you have?

Speaker 2 (01:40:06):
Hey, Kevin, is he out there the ladies? Of course?
All right?

Speaker 10 (01:40:12):
The Prime Minister of the UK, Boris Johnson, is going
viral for how he says chat GPT.

Speaker 3 (01:40:18):
I love it.

Speaker 4 (01:40:20):
Absolutely, I love it. Chichip is fantastic.

Speaker 2 (01:40:28):
This is the sandwich. I was telling you, this is
the second best thing I've ever put in my mouth.
Don't ask use your imagination. All right, well, thank you again.
Get out here. What are you doing with the food?
Tell him what the food? This food is from your
your place, Kafar in Brooklyn. So at the Hockston in

(01:40:51):
Brooklyn we have Jaffa, Kafar and laser Wolf. So labor
laser Wolf is like warm peda in salad team and
food off the hardwood grill. And then Kafar is a
lot of things. It's a bakery. You had some great pastries.
There are insane some egg and smoked salmon sandwiches on
Jerusalem bagels, Apple Bobka, beautiful pastries, cinnamon rolls out there.

(01:41:13):
Michael Solomanoff, he won the James Beard for Best Chef
in America. He's been here before. He brought his food
from Philly, didn't he? He brought his food from Philly. Question,
handsome fellow, but can we talk about what you did?
This is the move?

Speaker 3 (01:41:25):
You know?

Speaker 2 (01:41:26):
The cinnamon roll is you know it has a center
of it which is the moist, most most incredible part
of the center role. You screw the rest of it.
You just went for the heart and ate the heart
and just left the bone sitting there. You're absolutely right
because I do the same thing. Did I do the
same thing?

Speaker 3 (01:41:41):
You know?

Speaker 2 (01:41:41):
Is that bad? Are we bad people? Because we do that? Well,
there was four of them. It's not like it's not
like I took four hearts. I took one. I figured
that I've worked really hard all these years, and I
deserved twenty five percent of those hearts.

Speaker 11 (01:41:53):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:41:55):
He's done. The math my favorite, because you know Pillsbury
has those those cinnamon roles. Hit you hit the can
on the side because I used to eat the heart
of those when I was a kid.

Speaker 8 (01:42:03):
Oh, they bust open like when you take off space.

Speaker 2 (01:42:05):
There's nothing better than the violence that goes behind. Buttermunt
biscuits instead of Billsbury. That feels like the nineteen eighties
to me, doesn't it? It was the nineteen seventies. I'm
a little older in the seventies. Again, thank you for
coming in. Thanks, I'll be back in five minutes.

Speaker 7 (01:42:22):

Okay, all right, So shout out to our listener Lindsey.
For the last two weeks, she's been sending us the
same exact talk back on the iHeartRadio app. So you
just clicked the little microphone send us a message. I
get every single one of them. So I figured i'd
finally bring this to you.

two weeks. Oh gosh, I'm glad you put it through here.

Can we get Elvis on dancing with the Stars?

Speaker 2 (01:44:38):
Oh god?

Speaker 11 (01:44:38):
I think it would be so iconic and he would
crush it if they really want to go controversial if
they put him with Gleb. But I'd honestly be down
for him and anyone. So can we please make this
happen because I think that it would be amazing.

Speaker 2 (01:44:55):
Well, thank you. First of all, it's dancing with the stars.
I am not one.

Speaker 2 (01:46:25):
All right, we are having such an interesting New York
City moment. All right, So we have two people, two guys.
We think they're guys on the window cleaning thing. What's
the thing called the platform? It's called the window washing
the window washing gondola dough yeah whatever. It starts at

(01:46:47):
the roof of our tall building in Manhattan, and they
get on this thing and they wash the windows and
they slowly lower them down, and they go to every
floor and do their thing. They're now down to our
windows here on the sixth floor. But you only see
their feet and then it comes down a little more
than you see their knees.

Speaker 7 (01:47:05):
But he's not washing windows, he's taking pictures.

Speaker 2 (01:47:08):
Well, they're probably the building, the safety of the building
or something. They do that in the now see it
slowly comes down, you see their ankles, and then it
comes down more than you see their knee caps. Now
we're at crotch and chest level. We don't see their
faces yet.

Speaker 8 (01:47:24):
We're about to get the big reveal.

Speaker 2 (01:47:25):
Okay, So which which guys like the hottest one they
got on the left or the right?

Speaker 8 (01:47:28):
Okay, based solely on this, I'm gonna go right. Yellow vests. Yes,
he's turned sideways. You can't see a lot.

Speaker 2 (01:47:36):
We can see a big puffy coat. I'm thinking the
guy on the left is going to be the most attractive.
It could be a woman. We don't know.

Speaker 8 (01:47:44):
We're about to see a face or faces.

Speaker 2 (01:47:46):
This is crazy. Yeah, this happens in my building sometimes too.
You'll look at your window. You're walking around with your
underwear in underwear, and they're looking and you're washing your windows, Like,
what are you doing? You have to have a lot
of courage to be outside being like almost for dangling
on the side of the building. Yeah, I have to
start wearing pants now in my apartment. Somebody moved in
across from me. Why start now? Yeah. What they're doing,

(01:48:10):
they're inspecting the building. Just make sure that it's all
sealed up, getting ready for winter. That's cool, I hope.

Speaker 4 (01:48:15):
So.

Speaker 8 (01:48:16):
Oh yeah, they're labeling something now. They just took something
and start right.

Speaker 2 (01:48:19):
They found an imperfection outside our window.

Speaker 7 (01:48:21):
Of course, is outside our window.

Speaker 2 (01:48:23):
I need for them to go a little further. You're
listening to live coverage of us looking at people on
a thing. What is this thing called?

Speaker 7 (01:48:31):
It's called call it a cradle, not a scaffolding.

Speaker 2 (01:48:34):
Scaffold, suspended scaffold. It it has a motor. It motorizes
and motorizes them down the side of.

Speaker 7 (01:48:41):
The building, and he has like a little thing on
him to keep him protecting Alice.

Speaker 2 (01:48:51):
Look, they found a little problem outside our window. Anyway,
so this is one of the fabulous parts of living
in New York City.

Speaker 8 (01:48:57):
Should we approach the window so when they finally do
come down on they see us.

Speaker 2 (01:49:00):
Bam, right there, I just gotta I just got a
little bit of a look at the guy on the
rights face.

Speaker 7 (01:49:08):
Okay, so compelling on the glass.

Speaker 8 (01:49:14):
Okay, we've seen one guy.

Speaker 2 (01:49:16):
We're gonna have to wave to them a headline.

Speaker 8 (01:49:20):
No, no, don't.

Speaker 2 (01:49:21):
That could be dangerous. They're working, Nate, They're dangerous. I'm
telling you not to do that. They're dangling the eight
floors above the ground. I've asked, I'm gonna ask you nicely.
Please don't bother the men who are harnessed to save
their lives.

Speaker 8 (01:49:36):
Should we put our butts up against the glass?

Speaker 2 (01:49:38):
Yes? Okay, okay, nateot gout against the glass as fine.
They need some glass as on the glass, all right,
a tailor do something else? We wanted to do this
break I don't remember.

Speaker 7 (01:49:57):
There must be something really wrong with that spot there a.

Speaker 2 (01:49:59):
Long I know, and it's our floor. Window washers see
a lot in their day for they do, I mean
things that probably they shouldn't see. Well, don't you wonder
what truck drivers are seeing when you're in your load
to the ground BMW sed what they see because you
know scary's BMW is your ass is dragging the ground,

(01:50:21):
so every truck driver can see what you're doing.

Speaker 8 (01:50:25):
Very clear.

Speaker 2 (01:50:27):
All right, Well these people are not on our time schedule?

Speaker 8 (01:50:29):
Now is it rude? Because you know, we a lot
of us live in buildings that have a lot of
floors and have these window washers. When they come down
and I'm not prepared for it, I just shut the
blinds like they could be outside. I shut it. Does
that mean no? Okay, I'm like, I don't want to
look at you, don't look at me. You get out
of here.

Speaker 2 (01:50:43):
So are you saying they should give you time to prepare,
like dress for their arrival.

Speaker 3 (01:50:47):
No?

Speaker 8 (01:50:47):
I just don't know if it's rude for them to
like look me in the face and me shut the
curtains on them.

Speaker 2 (01:50:52):
Well, I mean if the tables were turned, they wouldn't
want you look in in their apartment. That's all right,
they're not moving.

Speaker 7 (01:50:57):
He's taping something.

Speaker 2 (01:50:58):
They're great. We're living in a building that's taped together.

Speaker 7 (01:51:01):
It's got blue tape.

Speaker 8 (01:51:02):
A little nerve racking.

Speaker 2 (01:51:04):
I don't know.

Speaker 8 (01:51:04):
You see to have these windows don't open, we can't
talk to them.

Speaker 2 (01:51:08):
You could write notes. Remember we used to write notes
to the people across from our old studio. They're having
sex in the hotel room. We see you.

Speaker 8 (01:51:15):
Should we just write a note that says, what's wrong
with the building?

Speaker 2 (01:51:18):
Is the building? Should we evacuate?

Speaker 8 (01:51:19):
Are we okay?

Speaker 2 (01:51:21):
Should we get out now? Should we pull the fire alarm?

Speaker 3 (01:51:24):
What do we do?

Speaker 8 (01:51:25):
Twice?

Speaker 2 (01:51:26):
Let me play a song because this radio, this segment
of our show is probably not garnering. We're getting HI rate. Yeah,
I love a jingle bar. MGK or Z one hundred
jingle Ball is larsuit. I think MGK would be great.
Do you have a cliche? This is cliche? While people

(01:51:46):
are outside telling us to evacuate our building? What are
the mini stars of why one hundred seven jingle Ball
presented by Capitol one MGK looking at the guys outside
on the floatings catholic. Yeah, they just floated right by.
We waved. They waved back. They do see all sorts
of things. I'm sure I think they are from the

(01:52:07):
Department of Buildings. They're inspecting our ability to make sure
that we are up to code. There is look, you're
that he's got his speed lunkers thing, Yeah, there is.

Speaker 8 (01:52:15):
Okay, we could write the sign and just asked them
the question are we up to code? And they could not.

Speaker 2 (01:52:19):
Should we evacuate the building and go ask.

Speaker 8 (01:52:21):
Hey, I'm Serena Carpenter.

Speaker 3 (01:52:26):
In the morning Shoe what are you doing?

Speaker 7 (01:52:27):
And this's what's the.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage

Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28. Subscribe to Pushkin+ to hear ad-free episodes one week early. Find Pushkin+ on the Medal of Honor show page in Apple or at Pushkin.fm.
