Speaker 1 (00:01):
One of the most listening to your top forty morning
radio shows in the country. Elvis Durant in the Morning Show,
You're a very, very funny guy.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
I've been listening here in New.

Speaker 1 (00:10):
York for a long time.

Speaker 3 (00:11):
Say hello to Elvis.

Speaker 1 (00:12):
D This is Elvis duran in the Morning Show. You
know what, sometimes I'm like, maybe I should have gone
to one or two of these high school reunions. But
I never went. When I was in high school, no
one really liked me. I didn't like them. I mean,
you know, I was I was not one of the
popular guys or whatever. After high school for me, I

(00:34):
can't speak for you, but after high school for me
was when life began.

Speaker 4 (00:37):
Okay, yeah, definitely.

Speaker 1 (00:39):
But Lisa Froggy's wife, Lisa, you you're still good friends
with people you went to high school with. Correct, I
am right, and a lot of them. I admire that.
And for anyone who still has friends, I have one
friend I still talk to from high school.

Speaker 5 (00:54):
That's it.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
One.

Speaker 6 (00:56):
What about you, Danielle, I don't think I talked to
no no, no, I I do. I have one friend
that I talked to from high school.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
And Gandhi, do you have a lot of high school
friends you still talk to.

Speaker 7 (01:04):
I actually do have a handful of friends from high
school I still talk to, but I still wouldn't be
down for the reunion thing. That's that's the handful I
want to talk to.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
You just want a reunion on your terms with the
people you want to hang out with. Yes, So, Lisa,
there was a high school reunion this past weekend and
you just couldn't wait to get over there to go
to this reunion, right right.

Speaker 8 (01:22):
It was wonderful. So, yes, I went to this reunion
and it, you know, it's funny, there was, Yes, you
have the guy that you know, the super hot guy
that was it in high school in middle school.

Speaker 4 (01:34):
So I walk in, I'm standing there and I'm I
just walk in. I'm getting ready to walk up to him.

Speaker 8 (01:39):
This girl steps right in front of me and she's
like I went to prom with him, and I'm like,
I don't give a you know what that she did?
Like okay, And then I walk over to him and
she's eyeing me up and down and I'm like thinking
to myself because I'm talking to him about stuff. It
was a great conversation. I hadn't seen him in a while.

(02:00):
She's looking me up and down. And I'm like, so,
I of course made the conversation even more, you know,
eccentric and fun, and she's just looking me up and down.
I'm like, girl, it's been over thirty years since you've
been a prom with him.

Speaker 1 (02:11):
You need to get over it. I know you wanted
to say that, but did you say that to her
or did you just kind of move along, like I
don't want to start a fight with this woman.

Speaker 8 (02:20):
Well I didn't move along, but I just kind of
gave her evil looks and then I was taking selfies
with them, just to piss her off even more.

Speaker 3 (02:27):
Are you trying to pick up.

Speaker 9 (02:28):
This dude at the reunion? I wasn't there, by the way.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
Okay, so, okay, let's let's talk years now. You said
it's been over thirty years since you guys all graduated
from high school? Is that what you're saying?

Speaker 2 (02:39):
Yet?

Speaker 10 (02:40):
Oh?

Speaker 11 (02:40):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (02:41):
And still, I mean, is she dating this guy? Is
she married to him? I mean, what's her affiliation with
this guy? Now?

Speaker 8 (02:48):
I think she's just maybe wanting to date him. I
don't think they were dating at all. It's just like
she was just moving in like a like a cougar.
On her territory, and I'm like, girl, I am not
trying anything here.

Speaker 12 (03:00):
I was so pissed off.

Speaker 8 (03:01):
I'm like, I'm gonna make it even.

Speaker 4 (03:02):
Worse for you, And.

Speaker 12 (03:05):
Why I don't want to go to any reunion exactly.

Speaker 1 (03:08):
There's there are so many people who are still living
in their high school frame of mind. They're still there.

Speaker 3 (03:16):
Yeah, what God?

Speaker 8 (03:18):
It was mind blowing. I just couldn't believe the looks
she was giving me. I'm like, you gotta be kidding me, right,
I said, I should have really done this output up
a lot better than that if I'd known this was
going to go down.

Speaker 1 (03:29):
So she she was cutting you off. How dare you
talk to this guy you haven't seen in over thirty
years because I went to problem with him?

Speaker 2 (03:35):
All right?

Speaker 6 (03:35):
Ridiculous?

Speaker 1 (03:37):
I agree with God. This is why high school reunions no,
thank you?

Speaker 11 (03:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
Count So a lot of people say, well, what business
did Lisa have talking to this guy at the reunion
to begin with? Wouldn't Froggy be madunion? Okay, okay, well
let me go ahead and pull up my pork sandwich
and listen to what you.

Speaker 13 (04:05):
Were you friends with this guy before last Saturday night?

Speaker 5 (04:09):
Yes?

Speaker 13 (04:10):
You were Okay, so you were friends with him before,
and so did you take no, No, I didn't mean that.
What I'm saying is but you were taking pictures with them.
You were taking pictures for them, just to upset her.

Speaker 9 (04:22):
Correct.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
Yeah, of course are you going to.

Speaker 11 (04:25):
Can?

Speaker 4 (04:26):
I be honest, that's the most high.

Speaker 14 (04:29):
This is.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
This is the problem with the union reunions. You're going
into this be be high from the past. It's like
you hopped into the old school time machine.

Speaker 6 (04:39):
I feel like, are you going to see him again?

Speaker 12 (04:41):
Lisa?

Speaker 15 (04:42):
Oh?

Speaker 8 (04:43):
I mean probably another you know, get together reunion prosper Yeah,
but nine time soon.

Speaker 13 (04:47):
I just feel like if I did this, like if
I went and the tables were completely turned, you'd be ever.

Speaker 16 (04:57):
Hold on when you did?

Speaker 11 (05:03):
You hear?

Speaker 3 (05:04):
Stop on it?

Speaker 6 (05:08):
Everybody did?

Speaker 3 (05:11):
Can never fall asleep?

Speaker 17 (05:17):
He's super high now she has one?

Speaker 6 (05:22):
Is he still now?

Speaker 16 (05:24):
Yeah?

Speaker 12 (05:24):
He actually looks pretty good still?

Speaker 1 (05:26):
Okay, So a froggy was hanging out with let's say
the big the popular girl from the cheerleading squad from
back in the day, and she still looks really great.
She takes good care of herself. Whatever would would you
have a couple of questions or maybe an ounce of
thought like, okay, what's this about? Not not at all?

Speaker 4 (05:47):
Maybe a few, not too many, right, not too many cares?

Speaker 8 (05:51):
Of course, he would say, of course, he would say,
I got her contact information, she'd be great on the
show or some bs like that.

Speaker 6 (05:58):
You know what you'd say, you'd say, she wouldn't be
talking to you if you didn't do what you do
for a living.

Speaker 1 (06:07):
I know her so well, I know, all right, so yeah, scary.
What's your thought here?

Speaker 18 (06:12):
My thought is that I feel that certain people who
attend high school reunions are the faction of people that
have something to prove. Like if you were a misfit
then or a nerd and nobody and everybody went away
and they didn't recognize you as becoming anything more. If
you've become something now, though, you you get those types
of people that show up at the reunion as well,

(06:33):
in addition to the beehive people that never left.

Speaker 6 (06:35):
Oh my gosh, but let me tell you. If I
was like the ugly duckling in high school and now
I am like hot, my ass is going to that reunion,
I'm like, that's sorry?

Speaker 1 (06:47):
Is it safe to say? In Gandhi and I are
the two that have no desire to go to these
things at all none. Is it safe to say that
each and every one of us, including Gandhi, including me,
do still have a little bit of a thing about
the politics from high school versus now. I mean, I'll agree,

(07:07):
I maybe I don't want to go because I just
didn't care for them then, and so why do I
want to do, which means I'm still holding on to
something weird. Gandhi, do you hear what I'm saying.

Speaker 7 (07:17):
I do hear what you're saying. I just I don't
know that I think you're holding onto something weird. I
feel like it's more of just that I have no
desire to engage in something that I don't care about anymore.

Speaker 4 (07:28):
I don't I don't know.

Speaker 7 (07:28):
I feel like I just I don't care about a
huge faction of the people. I mean, no offense, but
I with social media anymore, I keep in touch with
the people I want to keep in touch with.

Speaker 4 (07:37):
I know what's going on. If I want to.

Speaker 7 (07:39):
See those people, I will see those people. The people
who I know are up to, you know, whatever they're
up to.

Speaker 1 (07:44):
I'm just not interested in lack of acceptance. And now
I want to show them that I am accepted. Really
so scary roll up in your Maybach that you rented.
I must have deep rooted issues from the past. I
would like, you know what, I can get that girl now.

Speaker 6 (08:00):
Really you can. I had a great time, and I
was lucky. I had the best time in high school
and I had the best I had so much fun,
so many friends, so many great teachers. But I still
don't talk to them. There are I got to admit,
and I was telling Gandhu up the air, there are
a couple of people that I wish I could still
keep in touch with that I can't. That I've tried
to find and I can't find anymore. So you know,

(08:21):
that's one thing.

Speaker 9 (08:22):
But so so, why did you go to the high school?

Speaker 1 (08:24):
What was your reason for going?

Speaker 6 (08:26):
Just stop it?

Speaker 8 (08:28):
Because I was always everybody's friend in the fat girl
in high school and I wanted.

Speaker 1 (08:32):
To go back.

Speaker 7 (08:34):
Good for you then, then, I hope it made you
feel good.

Speaker 12 (08:38):
I did you know what?

Speaker 6 (08:40):
There was a time where the guy who I really
wanted in high school, the hawk I'm not even gonna
say his name, that every girl wanted I actually met
in a bar years later and he found out what
I did, and he started talking to me, and at
that point it was my turn to say, oh, it's
been so nice talking to you.

Speaker 1 (08:59):
This is where it's not fair because he may have
been a Jack Watt in high school. He may be
a really sweet, interesting guy. Now, Oh, well, too bad,
you know what I'm saying. I already got to go
talk to Jeff online. Twenty four Jeff's run into some
people from high school. Hey, Jeff, talk about the people
you've run into from high school. Hey you guys, good morning,
Good morning sir.

Speaker 10 (09:20):
Well, I'm a correction officer. There's just funny running into
people that I went to high school with in prison
onto the other side of the bars.

Speaker 1 (09:28):
Oh scenario a few of those.

Speaker 10 (09:33):
Yeah, typically the cool kids who were always coding class
were hanging out on the bleachers and whatnot.

Speaker 6 (09:39):
Did you kind of know back then that that was
going to happen, Like, yeah, I'm going to see them
behind the bars.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
Yeah, we saw that coming.

Speaker 10 (09:45):
Ould you could tell Yeah, that was definitely something that
you could see happening.

Speaker 1 (09:49):
Wow, right, well there you go. So, I mean, let's
be honest. I mean, high schools people spread out and
do different things. And my favorite story Jeff is like
one guy or sometimes a woman, a girl from high
school who turned out to like be this crazy, crazy felon.
I mean out there robin Banks and pulling off stuff

(10:12):
you never would have dream they would be doing. But
we all change. Yeah, I don't know, Hi, Jeff, thanks
for calling. I'm glad you're on the right, the right
side of the bars there. That's pretty cool. So yeah, yeah, Gandi,
what's up?

Speaker 7 (10:24):
So there are you know, like reunion pages online and stuff.
So I popped into my high school's reunion page for
I'd say I was there for five minutes. One person
hit me with a well, well, well Hollywood's here left.

Speaker 5 (10:35):
I'm out.

Speaker 4 (10:36):
Don't want to be any part of that.

Speaker 3 (10:37):
Oh my gosh.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
They it is okay, listen, guys, we got it. We
have to move on. But this texture is really very
They're actually doing a great job in describing what I'm feeling.
They say, I think there's always unfinished business, positive or negative.
I think we all have a bit of trauma that
sometimes need healing. And it really isn't only a high

(10:59):
school thing. I mean you can actually talk to anyone
who's in therapy or a therapist or people who are
very knowledgeable when it comes to psychotherapy. This and that.
There are so many things that happened to us when
we're kids that we just don't really remember, but happened
to us that have molded us into the way we
think about certain things in life that can be bad

(11:20):
for us. And you gotta keep in behind. High school
is still at that early enough stage where those things
are still happening. Maybe you were shunned at high school,
maybe you thought you were the outcast, maybe whatever. A
million of different things, a million one different things happened
to you in high school or when you were a preteen,
or you were a kid, and you're still holding onto

(11:41):
these things, and those are the good and bad things
that make us who we are today. They are the
great things that you can look in the mirror and
congratulate yourself on. And you're a good person when it
comes to this, this and this. You know you learned
a lot of this way back when, without you even
knowing you were learning about it. So I can see

(12:01):
how high school and reunions play an important part in.

Speaker 11 (12:04):
That who is We're good daddy.

Speaker 9 (12:16):
I hope your dad.

Speaker 14 (12:19):
Merry Christmas from Elvista Ran in the Morning show.

Speaker 1 (12:24):
Exercise may not be the key to living longer. As
a matter of fact, it might even be aging you faster.
We'll get to that in a moment. You have to
read the whole harder.

Speaker 5 (12:34):
I think so.

Speaker 1 (12:38):
Nature. We here going stretching. He was stretching, but he
was making that noise and then yawning. And I know,
the older I get, the more noises I make.

Speaker 11 (12:54):
You know what I said.

Speaker 1 (12:54):
It's like sitting next to Mount Vesuvius. Yeah, you're about
to erupt.

Speaker 19 (12:57):
Like when I get out of bed in the morning,
my body's like Disney's Haunted Mansions.

Speaker 1 (13:03):
It creaks like this old house. I know that. But
but if you're in a room full of people and
we're having conversations, you know, it was like hey, guney.

Speaker 11 (13:22):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (13:22):
I also you got hear you hear him?

Speaker 2 (13:25):
Do it right.

Speaker 19 (13:25):
It's also in addition to making these noises, I've noticed
myself just burping, like I forget, there's.

Speaker 1 (13:34):
Is that an old person thing? Because my dad does that.

Speaker 6 (13:36):
Like my mom. My mom will do that, but she
has like acid reflex.

Speaker 3 (13:41):
I cannot help it.

Speaker 1 (13:43):
Yeah, I got gird, my god.

Speaker 6 (13:46):
I could do it on command to what's good?

Speaker 2 (13:50):
I could do it.

Speaker 1 (13:52):
It's like Willie walk and talking.

Speaker 11 (13:55):
But I don't know.

Speaker 1 (13:56):
My body is just doing this.

Speaker 9 (13:57):
I have no control.

Speaker 11 (13:58):
We no the body.

Speaker 1 (13:59):
It's not a wonderland. I'm sorry. The body is just
a disgusting thing sometimes it really is. It's just it's
just sitting in a room. I think when you're doing
the mooing noises and things, I don't think you know
you're doing it, don't really. I swear to god, I
do not know.

Speaker 19 (14:14):
I like I'm burping or yawning, sparting, or like when
I get up and I make that noise that.

Speaker 1 (14:19):
Oh, I don't even know I do that. I just
it's it's just what my body does. But you do it, Blanche.
I'm sorry.

Speaker 4 (14:27):
Nate acts like he's one hundred.

Speaker 6 (14:28):
You're like forty, right right, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (14:31):
I've been through a lot of it's it's it's not
the years, it's the mileage. Okay, Hey, speaking of so,
I was reading online New York Post dot com and
the headline I saw was exercise may not be the
key to living longer, It might even be aging you faster.

Speaker 16 (14:46):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (14:47):
I didn't read the full article yesterday, but because I
know pretty much what's really what is right? The headline
is misleading, but Scary did a mass text to all
of us. Ah, you can hear him saying, oh ha,
you people who work out, Yeah, listen to this. So
the article goes on to say exercise might not be
the key to longevity according to new research. In fact,

(15:09):
too much moving around could even be accelerating the aging
process in our bodies, Scandinavian scientists have revealed. It goes
on to say, where's the rest of the article? Read more? Yeah,
what's problem with this?

Speaker 11 (15:26):
Anyway?

Speaker 1 (15:26):
It goes on to say moderate exercise is good for you.

Speaker 7 (15:31):
Yes, I mean it pretty much says no one's going
to argue that exercise is important and everybody should be exercising.
What it was saying is if you do it too much, yeah,
then yeah, you're gonna hurt your joints and your bone
all these other things that of course, if you're running
one hundred miles a day, we know that's not going
to be great for your body.

Speaker 1 (15:50):
It goes on to say the ambitious study on the
oft discussed subject has yet to be peer reviewed, but
recently once some kind of medicine prize in Finland, whatever,
multiple studies have previously confirmed that those who exercise more
live longer and healthier lives. Yes this time, however, researchers
at the University of found that physical activity might just

(16:12):
be a small part of the larger picture, and in
some cases, may have negative health effects. They studied eleven
thousand people. The participants self reported the time and intensity
of their day to work out, and they were categorized
in four groups. Which of these four groups are you
a member of? Number one sedentary, moderately active, moderately active,

(16:35):
which I don't know what that would be. You need
to hear the other one, the other one active and
highly active.

Speaker 4 (16:40):
Definitely not highly active.

Speaker 6 (16:42):
I feel like I'm in the middle of moderately active
and active.

Speaker 1 (16:45):
Yeah, me too, because like it depends on the day,
like I work out three times a week.

Speaker 6 (16:50):
Wait, are they talking about working out or just being active?

Speaker 1 (16:52):
Well, I don't know, I think comics. Oh my god.

Speaker 7 (17:00):
It was talking about how important it is to watch
your diet, that that's a huge factor, and your body
mass is a huge factor and all that kind of stuff.

Speaker 4 (17:07):
So it's you know, we know this. It's important to
take care of yourselves.

Speaker 1 (17:11):
So listen closely. Scary. Overall, they found that those who
exercise the least were about twenty percent more likely to
die over the forty over the forty five years, and
those who were regularly active.

Speaker 18 (17:23):
See from the headline, my takeaway was that you're killing
yourself by working out.

Speaker 1 (17:27):
That's that's pretty much what it's. Well, they don't give
you the full story in the head of However, when
they filtered for lifestyle factors including education, body mass index, smoking,
and alcohol consumption. To me, I guess that number drops significantly.
So being moderately active is step up from sedentary. It's

(17:47):
a good thing. And in you know, maybe it's don't
consider that headline as being the truth.

Speaker 4 (17:54):
And you got to read an article.

Speaker 1 (17:55):
I thought I was onto something when I said that.

Speaker 18 (17:58):
People say that I look young because don't cork out
and I haven't put physical strain on my body.

Speaker 1 (18:04):
You know, we've had friends who had a baby face
who passed away because they were not healthy. Oh yeah,
it's like saying It's like someone saying, oh, I heard
drinking red wine is good for you. Well, it can be,
but there are there are rules and regulations.

Speaker 6 (18:21):
So if the restaurant is two blocks away, you shouldn't
drive to it fair enough, which he does.

Speaker 1 (18:30):
Look, I'm not saying any of us are better than
any of us. That's not all I'm saying. But I'm
all I'm saying. The point of this is to read
the article. Don't just look oh the headlines, like, oh,
cought the headline this morning told me I'm gonna live
forever because I'm not working.

Speaker 18 (18:42):
I feel like a lot of us do that with
a lot of things in life. We just read the
headline and not the article.

Speaker 1 (18:46):
I know, because we are living in that fast payoff
society where we want we want the entry immediately. We
don't want to dig beneath the service to figure it
out anyway, So why laughing?

Speaker 12 (18:58):
See just three deadlines of the moves on.

Speaker 7 (19:00):
I mean, I know that people do it, but typically
if you see a headline and you're like, oh, that's interesting,
don't you then read the article.

Speaker 1 (19:06):
Yes, you're sposed to.

Speaker 3 (19:08):
People don't know.

Speaker 1 (19:09):
I know you don't.

Speaker 6 (19:11):
Not so excited to tell us I told you so
that he sent the article without reading, all the more reason.

Speaker 16 (19:16):
To read it.

Speaker 1 (19:18):
Well there you have. Just we just went three minutes
and Nate didn't make a noise.

Speaker 12 (19:26):
I saw him over there, tapping his chest though trying
to keep quiet.

Speaker 2 (19:29):
He was a.

Speaker 11 (19:31):
Gestion.

Speaker 1 (19:31):
I just trying to break it up, all right, did
you just go?

Speaker 11 (19:39):
All right?

Speaker 3 (19:42):
Hold on, someone's in.

Speaker 5 (19:43):
Here, Santa?

Speaker 12 (19:44):
Why are you pooping in my house?

Speaker 3 (19:46):
Trying to eat lots of cookies and sometimes that makes diarrhea.

Speaker 5 (19:51):
Merry Christmas from Elvister Rand in the Morning Show.

Speaker 3 (19:59):
Who is all right?

Speaker 11 (20:00):
We're good, daddy, Daddy?

Speaker 1 (20:01):
I hope you fight your dad.

Speaker 3 (20:03):
Thanks.

Speaker 14 (20:04):
Merry Christmas from Elvis dare In in the Morning Show.

Speaker 1 (20:09):
Gandhi said, the other shows she used to work for,
they used to do this thing called what do you do?
What do you make? And people will call up and
tell you what they did and what they make. Eighty
five thousand dollars for a company truck driver on the
road Monday through Friday, on the at home on the weekends.
Let's see, here's someone who makes sixty seven grand a year.
We don't know why, what what?

Talk to Steve Hi Steve, Hi, how are you guys doing.
We're doing well. We're doing really well. So Steve, uh,
what do you do?

Speaker 3 (20:51):
What do you make?

Speaker 15 (20:54):
So?

Speaker 20 (20:54):
I work for a company that they do has Matt
Stilly spots, So we pick up all kinds of nasty
off and I make light around ninety grand air.

Speaker 11 (21:03):
Wow.

Speaker 20 (21:04):
Hey up in Rochester, New York, which is really good
money up here.

Speaker 1 (21:08):
That is great money. But the thing is is you're
picking up hazardous materials. I mean, what kind of what
kind of goop are you working with every day?

Speaker 20 (21:17):
Well, it depends on the day, but most times it's
just kind of like like it the translants over so
it's like an oil that's in the transformers that open up.
So yeah, it's nothing to this, but you know it's
bad for your health. But there's also some places we
go to factories where they have all kinds of nasty chemicals.

(21:38):
One has had hydrofluoric acid.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
We cleaned up.

Speaker 10 (21:42):
You know.

Speaker 1 (21:43):
By the way, if you want to make some extra cash,
if you could clean out our studio refrigerator, we're scary
scary list salmon in there for three months. If you
can put on your your has Matt suit and come
on in to trybeca New York. We could use you.
We need you, I mean we need you.

It's a new adventure every day.

Speaker 11 (22:05):
Fun.

Speaker 1 (22:06):
Now do you like it because it's a new adventure
every day? Or is it because do you work with
nice people? That's really a great thing. You got to
work with people you like? Or how does that work?

Speaker 20 (22:16):
It's probably both of those because we have a really
great team up here. There's like twenty five or some
of us, say New York here. And you know, also
just that you know something new, there's always a change, so.

Speaker 1 (22:28):
You know, this could be actually a script for a
TV show or a movie. You know, a bunch of
people who are friends and they actually you know, they
make a living a cleaning up hazardous materials and all
the good and stuff.

Speaker 6 (22:38):
No, it's really really yeah, you're right, you know what?

do driving the truck, Kevin, and good morning I drive it.

Speaker 21 (23:18):
Hey, good morning to you as well. Good morning everybody.

Eighty five grand a year more than I was making
when I worked in sales.

Speaker 11 (23:53):
That's great.

Speaker 1 (23:53):
And plus there's okay, I'm I'm trying to think there's
independence here. You're on the road. By yourself. You're not
really nagged by other people in the office who need
you at every moment, so you really have a lot
of a loan time. And do you like that? Is
that good for you?

Speaker 2 (24:05):
Oh?

Speaker 11 (24:05):
I love it.

Speaker 21 (24:06):
I hate people.

Speaker 11 (24:08):
Too, I would like it.

Speaker 1 (24:10):
So you found the perfect job. Well, Kevin, thank you,

of the road keeping America moving. And of course we
really really saw that highlighted when COVID hit. What you

you're welcome, Thank you, thanks for colling, thanks for listening
to it. Oh bye bye bye bye. There you go,
I'll get on right. I love that online too. Is Aliana? Hello, Alliana,

(24:36):
welcome to our show. Am I saying your name correctly?

Speaker 15 (24:38):
Yeah, you're saying it right.

Speaker 22 (24:40):
Oh my god.

Speaker 18 (24:40):
This is so exciting boy.

Speaker 1 (24:42):
As it is for us. It's mutual. It's exciting to
talk to a real, live cake decorator because we love
decorated cakes. Talk about it. How did you get into this, Aliana?

Speaker 15 (24:52):
Well, I've kind of always been like really into baking
and all that, so I went to school for baking
tastry at Johnston and Wells University, and this is kind
of the first like real job that I landed, so
I've kind of always been into it.

Speaker 6 (25:11):
Wait, what's the coolest cake you've made?

Speaker 15 (25:16):
That's a really good question. Honestly, I don't know. I'm
kind of proud of all of the cakes that I've made,
but I'm gonna have to say, like, I made a couple,
you know, in the past, even before this job, I've
made a couple wedding cakes, and I think that's that's
really cool thing to do. But I think my favorite
cake that I've done overall is gender reveal cakes because
people trust you to, you know, be a part of

(25:38):
that moment of their life.

Speaker 1 (25:40):
Oh wow, Yeah, you know what. It's more than just
a dessert that looks good. It's there for a reason.
There's a reason that cake is there, and you're a
part of it. That's so cool. Okay, So if you
don't mind, how much do you make?

Speaker 15 (25:52):
Well, I guess pe'd at early I should make about
the dollars an hour?

Speaker 1 (25:56):
Was that fifteen an hour? Is that what you said?

Speaker 16 (25:59):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (25:59):
As a right now, you're doing what you love doing.
It sounds like you're really charged up doing it and
you understand the importance behind what you do. It's more
than just making cakes and decorating them. This is, like
I said, a part of people's lives, and you're very important,
very important stuff. Aleana. Well, thanks for sharing with us.

Speaker 15 (26:15):
This is the most exciting part of my day.

Speaker 1 (26:19):
I hope it gets more exciting than this, honey, serious,
you deserve better, all right, Eleana, thank you very much.
What's up? Scary? I have a hypothesis.

Speaker 18 (26:26):
I feel like we're not going to get any eight
figure people on the phone right now because I feel
like they don't wake up till lunchtime, because they have
their people, their staff up at six, seven o'clock in
the morning doing there.

Speaker 11 (26:37):
I don't know, you know what.

Speaker 1 (26:38):
After studying the habits of very very successful people, there
are many books out about it. A lot of them
are up very early. Scary, right, so I must I'm
I'm just saying all of them, but a lot of
them do get up very early, and they get started
long before we do. Seriously, so just consider that any
thoughts so far? This is kind of interesting. I'm loving

(27:00):
what people do and how they're connected to it and
how they yes, right.

Speaker 7 (27:04):
That's the part that I think is the most interesting
is finding out like the little ins and outs of
people's jobs and who's doing what for us that we
didn't even know was happening. And I always want to
know from truck drivers, how many days a week are
you driving?

Speaker 12 (27:14):
What's the weirdest stuff you see?

Speaker 4 (27:15):
I just feel like it's so interesting.

Speaker 1 (27:17):
Let's keep asking questions. Where are we going next? Lacey
online twenty four? Very important job. Let's go talk to Lacey. Hi, Lacey.
We're so excited to talk to you, to find out
what you do, what you make, what's going on?

Speaker 5 (27:28):
Hi?

Speaker 11 (27:29):
All?

Speaker 23 (27:29):
I God, I'm so excited as.

Speaker 1 (27:31):
We are as well. Okay, so what do you do, Lacey?

Speaker 24 (27:35):
I'm a nuclear medicine cardiac stress tech.

Speaker 3 (27:39):
Wow.

Speaker 6 (27:39):
Wow, See that sounds important to you.

Speaker 1 (27:42):
That's another day at the office. To us, that's wow,
that's beyond anything we understand. So tell us what you do.
What is it you do do?

Speaker 24 (27:52):
So we travel from office to office of cardiologists and
basically we perform the stress test like they welcome the
traill or they get the chemical stress to see if
there's any blockages in their hearts or if they have
any heart disease. So we're a first hand on that frontline,
trying to protect them from any heart conditions.

Speaker 1 (28:10):
Wow, do you what do you love about what you
do something that we may not understand because we don't
do it well.

Speaker 24 (28:17):
I love the interaction with the patients, of course, and
then also love having that like I guess fulfillment is
selfish as that sounds to like protect them and know
that they're going to leave and they're going to feel
a little bit better about what's going on in their
day to day lives that we may not see.

Speaker 1 (28:33):
Wow. I find it interesting that you said you thought
that was a little selfish in saying that you're being fulfilled,
not at all that I mean other than a great paycheck,
which I'm assuming you get. I mean, fulfillment is more important,
I would say, in many ways, don't you think?

Speaker 6 (28:49):
Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 24 (28:50):
I just you know, they're feeling more and better about
themselves and stuff. And sometimes it is bad when people
get like bad news, but like at the end of
the day that I know that we can help them
and let them see what's going on so they could further.

Speaker 6 (29:03):
Fix what's going on.

Speaker 1 (29:05):
There you go, So now we know what you do.

Speaker 24 (29:07):
What do you make around fifty thousand a year varies
with like knowledge and everything because I do travel, wow,
and so plus.

Speaker 1 (29:16):
You get to travel, you don't have to stay in
one place at one time. And if that's what you
really love doing, that's great for you too.

Speaker 9 (29:21):
See right, I love it.

Speaker 1 (29:24):
See we were stuck in these these chairs all for
four hours. I wish I could travel like you. Lacy.
Thank you so much for sharing with me.

Speaker 24 (29:33):
Sure we love y'all every morning, and so I love y'all.

Speaker 1 (29:36):
Well, it's like we're with you at the same time.
We're kind of stuck here. Love you Lacy. Thanks for
listening and you stay safe and thanks for helping people.
That's really great.

Speaker 24 (29:44):
All right, love y'all.

Speaker 1 (29:45):
Bye. So what are you thinking? This is great? Guys? Yeah,
this is awesome.

Speaker 6 (29:49):
I love what different people do because, like I said before,
somebody has to do it. You just never know who
it is.

Speaker 13 (29:54):
I just feel so interesting.

Speaker 1 (29:56):
It is interesting. I just still still feel weird asking
people what they make this is okay, yeah, scary. I
like this because I'm looking through and seeing what my
fallback job could be. Oh please, and what could that be?

Speaker 6 (30:08):
What are you land on?

Speaker 5 (30:10):
They're scary?

Speaker 1 (30:10):

you fly an airplane?

Speaker 2 (30:48):
No?

Speaker 11 (30:48):
Could you drive?

Speaker 1 (30:49):
Could you be a truck driver? Maybe it's more than
just getting behind a wheel and moving. It's a lot, right,
there's a lot more to it.

Speaker 4 (30:56):
You wouldn't be able to be on Instagram at all
while you drove.

Speaker 12 (30:59):
He can never do that.

Speaker 1 (31:00):
Can you do maintenance at a steel mill for ninety
five a year? Physical labor?

Speaker 2 (31:05):
No?

Speaker 1 (31:07):
How about a wealth manager. Here's a wealth manager that
makes about a million and a half a year, and
they get up at four thirty every morning? Wow, what
does it take to be that?

Speaker 10 (31:15):
Though?

Speaker 1 (31:16):
Like wealth management? Yeah, he's got he's got a hard gig. Well,
well you needn't understand and have a passion for wealth management. Yeah.

Speaker 13 (31:24):
Yeah, you're responsible for other people's money.

You gotta you got to. You have to know where
to go for a pet groomer. You can do this.
A pet groomer. They make eighty five grand a year
for scary.

Speaker 9 (31:39):
Maybe I would not try.

Speaker 13 (31:40):
I would not trust Scary to groom my dogs with
a razor.

Speaker 1 (31:44):
No, here's someone, here's someone with two jobs, a New
York State court officer where they make eighty three a
year and they also own a cheerleading gym. They make
a round seventy a year. Could you do? Could you
own a cheerleading gym or be a court officer? Two
four six eight? Who do we appreciate? I'm moving on
to that cheerleader gig. No, you just lost the cheerleader gig?

Speaker 11 (32:07):
Is what you?

Speaker 1 (32:09):
Line twenty three is George. George is an elevator constructor. Hey, George,
have you texted us before that? Sounds familiar to me
for some reason.

Speaker 25 (32:17):
Yeah, I've texted you before, and I've actually met you
at your book signing, and I actually met you at
a King Saladina mat Oh my god.

Speaker 1 (32:25):
Oh George, it's like we're best friends. So George, uh
uh yeah, for some reason, that weird ha's got a
vibe off your call. I'm feeling things.

Speaker 11 (32:33):
Uh.

Speaker 25 (32:35):
We were the couple that gave you the King Saladeen
the red October shirt.

Speaker 1 (32:39):
That's right, you know we love King Saladeen. I love him.
What a great artist. And so we met through that,
uh in New York City. So George, your your day
job and you're an elevator constructor, so something scary definitely
couldn't do, because I wouldn't get in get in on
an elevator, he bill, George, what does that mean exactly?
Construction of le It sounds easy to describe, but I

(33:02):
want to hear your take.

Speaker 25 (33:05):
We basically put the elevator together from the ground up.
So the rails that hold the elevator, the cab, everything
that you see inside the elevator is done by us.
And then everything you don't see, the mechanical things that
make the elevator move, we install, Yeah, you know, we
do all that, and everything is brought in piece by piece,

(33:26):
so it's not like one big unit comes in, so
we actually hand put together the whole entire thing.

Speaker 11 (33:31):
Wow.

Speaker 6 (33:33):
I would never thought that. I would have thought it
just came assembled.

Speaker 1 (33:42):
I'm assuming. Another major priority for you guys is safety,
because those can those are like big old dangerous rooms
of hell if they if they.

Speaker 25 (33:52):
Correctly right, yeah, I mean they can be. You got
to be definitely aware of your surroundings and what you're doing,
and you have a plan for everything you're doing, so
it's all done safe, all right?

Speaker 1 (34:03):
There you go, So George, Uh, there's the here's the
embarrassing question. What do you on average? What do you
make per year doing elevator construction?

Speaker 25 (34:11):
Most years when it's a good year.

Speaker 5 (36:04):
Merry Christmas. From Elvis Duran in the Morning Show.

Speaker 1 (36:10):
I was reading this in my notes this morning and
I goot, melancholy. All of a sudden, I'm about to
suggest something to you, and I want you to think
about it. And if you had one of these growing up,
You're immediately going to go into a space that I'm
going to put you in. Are you ready? Okay? Do
you still think about your childhood dog?

Speaker 24 (36:30):
Oh?

Speaker 11 (36:30):
Yes, I know.

Speaker 2 (36:32):
Hu.

Speaker 4 (36:33):
I didn't have a dog, but I had a bird.

Speaker 7 (36:35):
And I loved him so much. Chummy was the greatest
little friend ever. He would sit on my shoulder and
go everywhere with me.

Speaker 5 (36:40):
He was wonderful.

Speaker 1 (36:41):
I think if smudge Pot, Smudgepot was our dog.

Speaker 4 (36:47):
It's such a cute name.

Speaker 1 (36:48):
What about you, Frog? You immediately went, oh I did.

Speaker 13 (36:51):
I had a Cocker spaniel growing up. His name was Alex.
And the reason his name was Alex you realize things
when you get older. He was named after the dog
from ros the beer commercial. I think my dad had
a drinking problem when I was a young kid, and
we would know it. So we got a dog after
a beer commercial that his name was Alex. He was
a Congress Spaniel.

Speaker 11 (37:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (37:11):
Yeah, so Nate, what about you? You didn't grow up
with dogs?

Speaker 2 (37:13):
No?

Speaker 1 (37:14):
I think of all the times I was in the
hospital when I encountered a dog. I think you're highly allergic.

Speaker 9 (37:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (37:19):
I think of all the inhalers that I cradled as
a child. Oh my god, all the medications that gave me.

Speaker 9 (37:24):
The runs whatever, room down?

Speaker 1 (37:27):
Yeah, what a nice fuzzy Norman. Yeah, all the injections
in my arm.

Speaker 11 (37:32):
Now.

Speaker 1 (37:32):
Scary wasn't allowed to have a pet because his mother
lied to him and said she was allergic to cats.

Speaker 18 (37:38):
Oh my entire childhood, everything I know is wrong because
we always wanted a cat or a kitten or something,
and she was like, no, I'm allergic.

Speaker 1 (37:44):
You know, I sneezed.

Speaker 18 (37:45):
She used to fake sneeze when we used to go
over at the friend's house that had the cat, just
to show that she was allergic.

Speaker 9 (37:52):
She would love her.

Speaker 3 (37:53):
She would fake sneeze.

Speaker 2 (37:55):
I love you.

Speaker 3 (37:57):
I can't get you a cat.

Speaker 1 (37:58):
She that does to mommy.

Speaker 6 (38:03):
We had so many pets growing up, and we had
two dogs. The one dog was named Snuffalop I guess,
and he was awesome. Then we had another dog named Lady,
and Lady bit me. So I don't miss Lady so much.

Speaker 10 (38:14):
Lady.

Speaker 1 (38:14):
Well, yeah, but you think about your childhood pet, you know,
you grew up, maybe you grew up as the pet
grew up and got older than one day you lost
your childhood pet, and it brings back these feelings. It's
it's this, It's one room in your heart that you know.
You open that door and you walk in there, everyone's long.
When you think about your very your very first of
the pet. Oh yeah, pretty crazy. Sorry, I just wanted

(38:36):
to take you there.

Speaker 4 (38:37):
And now I'm thinking about when I lost Chummy.

Speaker 1 (38:40):
And that was terrible too. Sorry about that.

Speaker 4 (38:41):
Yeah, I was at a sleepover.

Speaker 7 (38:43):
My mom showed up and he was in a box
because the woman who's well, the girl whose house I
slept over, her mom like, ran the Wildlife Federation. So overnight,
while I was sleeping there, Chummy died and my mom
brought him to her to try and see what happened.

Speaker 4 (38:56):
But that's how I found out Chummy died.

Speaker 1 (38:58):
Wow, that's sad.

Speaker 2 (38:59):
I know, what do you have?

Speaker 11 (39:00):
Nate?

Speaker 1 (39:01):
Talk to Patrick on twenty four?

Speaker 14 (39:02):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (39:03):
Hi Patrick, what's going on?

Speaker 26 (39:05):
Hi?

Speaker 25 (39:06):
I actually am in a very unique perspective because I
still have my childhood pet.

Speaker 1 (39:11):
You do what kind of pet is it?

Speaker 21 (39:13):
I got?

Speaker 25 (39:14):
It was a Readier slider turtle I got from my
eighth birthday and he.

Speaker 13 (39:18):
Is still alive.

Speaker 20 (39:23):
I'm thirty six years old.

Speaker 7 (39:24):
Oh so incredible to be like one hundred, right, You're
gonna have to will him to someone else.

Speaker 1 (39:28):
Maybe I wish. I wish puppies would live to be
one hundred and fifty years old.

Speaker 20 (39:34):
Yeah, my, uh we actually have brought my moved in
with my girlfriend in Massapequa.

Speaker 25 (39:38):
Actually, and she is like, wow, I can't believe I
just inherited a turtle.

Speaker 1 (39:43):
I know that turtle has history, that turtle has milded,
that turtle has watched you grow up.

Speaker 25 (39:48):
Cool, so that turtle can legally rent a car.

Speaker 1 (39:53):
Oh wow, go, I don't want to be behind that
turtle driving This guy appear drives like a turtle. Wait,
that's a turtle turtles driving a car.

Speaker 9 (40:01):
All right, Well, Patrick, what.

Speaker 1 (40:02):
A great story, and you have a great day. You
take care bye bye. I love that my childhood pet
is still with me. I would do anything if our
pets lived longer, anything at all. I talk to Maggie
on twenty three. You've got great stuff going on today.

Speaker 2 (40:17):
Nate.

Speaker 10 (40:18):
Hi, Maggie, Hi, Elba, we're doing.

Speaker 1 (40:22):
How are we doing? Are we okay? I think we're okay.
What's going on? Maggie? Okay?

Speaker 23 (40:27):
So Nate called me because I texted in about how
I often think about my one eared lop bunny. She
had one ear. That's a different story. But my grandma Actually, no, no, no,
I want to hear back up.

Speaker 1 (40:38):
I want to hear this story. How did your rabbit
lose an ear?

Speaker 21 (40:42):
Okay?

Speaker 23 (40:43):
So I so she was a lop eared bunny. So
they have like the floppy ears, right, And so one time,
all of a sudden, one day I go to her
cage and the one ear was like crusty, as if
something was like wet, and then it dried right, and
so I was like, oh my good. So then I
made my brother take her back to where we got her,
and I said, go find out what's wrong with the ear. Well,

(41:05):
the guy said, oh, it's the ear died. It must
have gotten got in the cage. It died, and if
you don't get it amputated, it'll crinkle off like a
potato chip.

Speaker 1 (41:18):
Okay, hold on, I don't mean to laugh, but.

Speaker 23 (41:22):
It's all right. When I was in seventh grade right.

Speaker 1 (41:25):
Now, So you had an ear? An ear act to
me for the for the rabbit. Okay, So tell us
where where were we talking about earlier? Something else? But
go ahead, tell us more?

Speaker 22 (41:34):
Okay?

Speaker 23 (41:35):
So so then so then her so she had one ear, right,
She was a troubled bunny, but she was adorable. But
she was also morbidly obese. And you want to know
the reason why is because she liked these yogurt drop treats,
which I now know are not good for rabbits. But
she liked these yogat drop treats. And every time my
grandmother would go down to the basement to do laundry,
she would give her a treat. And you only supposed

(41:56):
to give him like one once in a while. So
my rabbit was over fed by my grandmother, and then
she wound up having a stomach condition and she passed away.
It was awful.

Speaker 1 (42:05):
Oh no, this poor rabbit. See, I'm sorry I brought
that memory back for you. I feel awful.

Speaker 23 (42:12):
It's all right, listen, I you know it's it's I'm
going to get a new rabbit soon.

Speaker 1 (42:18):
Okay, good. Don't let grandmother near your rabbit.

Speaker 15 (42:21):
I know.

Speaker 24 (42:22):
Well.

Speaker 23 (42:22):
The thing is, my sister brings her dog over and
she always gives the dog treats. I'm like, you got
to stay away from her.

Speaker 1 (42:28):
Yeah, bad, bad. Well, look I hope you have a
two eared bunny this time. You deserve. You deserve both ears.

Speaker 23 (42:34):
Thank you, Elvis, Maggie.

Speaker 1 (42:36):
I love talking to you. Have a beautiful day. I'll
never eat a potato chip ever.

Speaker 23 (42:39):
Yet was awful, right, I couldn't believe that description.

Speaker 1 (42:43):
I love it all right, Maggie, you have a great day.

Speaker 9 (42:46):
I love you too.

Speaker 1 (42:48):
So there I get there, I go bringing up bringing
past pet experiences. I'm sorry, what a bad idea.

Speaker 3 (43:00):
Little Louis, What do you want for Christmas this year?

Speaker 12 (43:03):
I really want to go to the North Pole?

Speaker 3 (43:06):
Yes, Santas, Who's son of a bitch?

Speaker 11 (43:09):
Dog?

Speaker 2 (43:09):
Bury?

Speaker 5 (43:10):
You and cold? Merry Christmas.

Speaker 14 (43:15):
From Elvis duran in the Morning Show. Merry Christmas from
Elvis Duranna in the Morning Show.

Speaker 1 (43:25):
We always get these lists, and sometimes I think without
these lists, I really wouldn't have a foundation to base
my life off.

Speaker 26 (43:33):
I like that.

Speaker 1 (43:34):
Today's list twenty things you need to learn before you
can truly live your best life.

Speaker 4 (43:37):
Oh I wonder if I'm living my best life.

Speaker 1 (43:41):
Let's go down the list. Okay, scarity of music for
this I do. It's now time for twenty things you
need to learn before you can truly live your best life?
Okay you listening? Froggy, Yes, Brody yes, And you know what.
And me being the oldest one in here and in
most rooms right now, I see how with age I

(44:05):
have learned some of these things. Like number one, people
come and go it's it's hard to really really come
to the grips with the fact that you're going to
run into people in life and become really close with
them and then they're gonna disappear.

Speaker 7 (44:18):
Oh, that's really hard, especially for me. A lot of
friendship breakups have been harder than any relationship breakup that
I've gone through.

Speaker 1 (44:25):
Yeah, it's life that you needed to happen. People grow apart,
friends grow apart. It's okay to let them go and see.
Sometimes I think when we try to hold onto them
for too long, that's when the trouble begins. Let them go.
My next point, every lesson has a price to pay.
There's no free lunch ever, So true, Oh well, you
have to pay for it one way or another. Number three,

(44:46):
Keep people who care close to your heart of course. Yeah,
but don't you have people in your life who just
automatically assume they'll always be there for you?

Speaker 6 (44:55):
So oh my gosh, one hundred percent.

Speaker 11 (44:56):
Yep.

Speaker 7 (44:57):
I actually text my sister yesterday and just said, I
just you so much. I've been so lucky to have
you my entire life, and I take advantage of it
all the time.

Speaker 1 (45:04):
A relationship takes effort, you know, that I hate that one.
What do you hate that could just be easy?

Speaker 4 (45:09):
I just want it to be easy.

Speaker 1 (45:10):
I want relationships to be easy as well. And every
once in a while you'll come across relationship with someone
and they make it difficult and you're like stop, and.

Speaker 6 (45:19):
Then you wonder if it's worth it, But sometimes it.

Speaker 1 (45:23):
Number five, grass is greener where you water it is true.

Speaker 7 (45:27):
I think people look at other people's lives and think
something looks so amazing, and I want that, And then
you get there and it's not that amazing. But if
you would have just taken care of your own things
and your dreams and hopes and aspirations, you have the
green grass.

Speaker 6 (45:39):
Someone had a quote a long time ago that I
loved and it was like, crave what you have, not
what you don't.

Speaker 1 (45:44):
So true, but they also remind you and this grass
is greener where you water it. Thought is nothing comes easy.
You have to work for it.

Speaker 12 (45:51):
Yeah, all right, water your grass.

Speaker 1 (45:52):
Number six can't please everyone.

Speaker 6 (45:54):
That's for damn sure.

Speaker 4 (45:55):
I gave up on that one along time.

Speaker 1 (45:57):
Number seven do you need to build meaningful relationships and
build it well? Know who to please, like your boss,
your lecturer, Elvis.

Speaker 6 (46:05):
I don't think that's on the list.

Speaker 1 (46:06):
Who wrote this, whoever wrote this list, it's it's foul.
I can't even read what they wrote. Really I like this,
so be okay. I'll read sort of what they said.
Be a build meaningful relationships and build it. Will know
who to please. By pleasing, I don't mean full on
licking their oh and maybe even their d I mean

(46:29):
talk to them, know what they like, what they don't like,
go up for lunch with them. Number eight. You need connections.
This is true, especially in the business world. It's it
never hurts to know too many people.

Speaker 5 (46:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (46:44):
Number nine, I love this. By the way, we're listening
to the list of things you need to learn before
you can truly live your best life. Number nine, no
one cares. I love that. Stop complaining about how much
your life sucks. No one cares.

Speaker 6 (46:57):
No one cares, and no one cares how you have
an extra role here or you know you nose it's
too big. You see yourself in a different light than
a lot of people see you.

Speaker 11 (47:08):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (47:09):
Number ten, no one owes you crap. You are responsible
for you without a doubt.

Speaker 4 (47:15):
That's so important.

Speaker 1 (47:16):
No one owes you anything. Number eleven physical appearance isn't everything.
It's how you carry yourself.

Speaker 6 (47:21):
Yeah, that is true.

Speaker 4 (47:22):
Confidence takes you so much further than just being attractive.

Speaker 1 (47:25):
Stand up straight, gandhi, stand up, I'm standing. Oh okay.
Number twelve. Your pride is not everything. It's not worth anything.
Put that pride down. Apologize when it's needed.

Speaker 11 (47:35):
Hey.

Speaker 1 (47:36):
Number thirteen, you're only truly happy when you make peace
with yourself. I agree with that.

Speaker 4 (47:41):
That's a tough one to come to too.

Speaker 1 (47:42):
I actually did something the other day that left me
with an ounce of regret. Oh, and it really bothered
me until I just let that regret. We're all out
off and I felt pretty good about everything. You're only
truly happy when you make peace with yourself, I said that.
Number fourteen. Don't be afraid to ridicule.

Speaker 11 (48:00):
Ah.

Speaker 5 (48:00):
I agree with that.

Speaker 1 (48:01):
People pass comments, people judge, feel free, analyze, people, ridicule them.

Speaker 7 (48:06):
Yeah, I feel like anymore if you say anything negative
about anything, everyone just swarms you like you are blank shaming.

Speaker 4 (48:13):
It's not necessarily shaming. I'm allowed to not like something,
and I'm allowed to say I don't like it.

Speaker 1 (48:17):
Get over it. Number fifteen. Life is never fair.

Speaker 11 (48:20):
We know that.

Speaker 1 (48:20):
That's important. Sixteen. Live by what you believe in. It's
kind of a deeference. Stick to your values, don't get swayed.
You believe in second chances. Give that, Give that a chance,
I get it. Number seventeen. Count your blessings. This is
something we're all guilty of forgetting to do.

Speaker 6 (48:34):
And I tell you I learned this more after my
father passed away than anything else, because the fact that
you don't realize how lucky you are until it's gone,
and you don't Like, I look at my family totally
different now, even when the kids are being kids being
a pain in my ass, I go, Okay, at least
they can be a pain in my ass.

Speaker 4 (48:55):
Yeah, Like what would it be?

Speaker 12 (48:57):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 6 (48:58):
Like, it's a totally different and it sucks that it
takes something to happen for you to realize it. And
I wish a lot of people, myself included, realize these
things sooner before something like that happens.

Speaker 1 (49:10):
Choose your battles wisely. There's an important one. Oh yes,
you don't have to fight every single thing that comes
down the road.

Speaker 3 (49:17):
Nope.

Speaker 1 (49:18):
Number nineteen. I'll always take a step back. If you
think from a different perspective. I always, always, I force
myself to do that sometimes. Yeah, especially when we're in
the middle of a controversial something going on in the
background here at the show or whatever. It's sometimes difficult
just to take your emotion out, pull back and look
at the whole thing and learn from it.

Speaker 6 (49:37):
That's the hardest thing for me to do. If I'm
having an argument, especially with like my husband or something like,
I only see my view and sometimes it's not until
I really piss him off, and then the next morning
I call him and he goes, I know the call
I'm gonna get. I'm totally seeing my side now. But
it took twenty four hours of you being pissed off.

Speaker 1 (49:55):
Okay, But that's how you learn, That's how you figure
it out and finally be kind. Always ooh, well, that's
a that's my challenging one.

Speaker 3 (50:01):
No, it's not, it is.

Speaker 1 (50:03):
I don't necessarily mean to be.

Speaker 3 (50:07):
Short.

Speaker 1 (50:08):
Is it a good word I have? I have no patience, right,
I've come to a point in my life where I
don't don't. I don't have any patience for anyone. And
I got I got that from a dad.

Speaker 13 (50:17):
That's all right, what froggy, why are you laughing because
you yelled at me last week in a Starbucks. And
I didn't really do anything wrong.

Speaker 1 (50:24):
On that star No, No, we were we were standing,
there were people in line behind this, and I'm like,
what do you want? Froggy? Froggy, I swear to you.
He walks up to the counter and looks at the
lady behind the Starbucks counter and almost has that, hey,
well what do you have here?

Speaker 13 (50:37):
I did that just because I knew you were already irritated,
stuff like, you know what, I'm just going to poke
the sleeping bear.

Speaker 2 (50:42):
Is that?

Speaker 1 (50:43):
Really? What you need to do is poke the sleeping bear.

Speaker 6 (50:45):
The bear, please don't wake them up.

Speaker 1 (50:48):
So where did we get this?

Speaker 5 (50:51):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (50:51):
Let me double check from thought kettleog it. It's called
the twenty things you need to learn before you can
truly live your best life? What was your favorite thing?
Out of all those twenty?

Speaker 7 (51:03):
I think really important ones are to count your blessings.
And if you think about all the things in your
life that are good, it sends you down a trajectory
of more positive things coming your way. And life is
not fair, and if you can accept that, things will
be a lot easier.

Speaker 1 (51:14):
Yeah, Daniel would have been with the count your blessings.

Speaker 6 (51:16):
One is so so so relevant.

Speaker 1 (51:19):
My other one is, no one owes you crap. I
love that no one owes you anything.

Speaker 6 (51:23):
And be kind to people because honestly, if you, honestly,
if you go up to somebody today and just say, hey,
your hair looks so cute, or while those shoes are awesome,
that tiny, tiny, tiny comment could make their entire day.

Speaker 16 (51:37):
Here, Santa, all I want for Christmas this year is
a fan, because I love the way it feels for
me when I.

Speaker 5 (51:45):
Go to sleep.

Speaker 2 (51:46):
Dear Emily, here's your fan, and here's Santa stomping on
it with his big black boots.

Speaker 3 (51:56):
I hope you never fall asleep. Loves.

Speaker 5 (52:02):

This is Elvis Duran in the Morning Show, Tony Answer
the phone, Elvis Duran, the Elvis Duran phone tap.

Speaker 1 (52:24):
The cool thing about today's phone tap is our friend
Lindsay did the whole thing. So that's what I want
you to listen for. I don't want you to judge
the humor or judge the nastiness. Just judge the fact
that she's pulling off a phone tap on her boyfriend.
Brian on her own U. The email came in, Dear Elvis,
my boyfriend Brian. We've been together for two and a
half years. He gets mad whenever I bring up my

(52:45):
ex boyfriend Kevin. Kevin now lives in Hawaii and I
haven't talked to him since we broke up. Wouldn't it
be great to call my current boyfriend Brian and tell
him that I want to go to Hawaii to meet
up with Kevin. It's gonna make him crazy. This comes
to us from Lindsay all right, and today's phone tap.
Lindsay's phone tap and her boyfriend Brian all by herself.
Let's listen in.

Speaker 5 (53:05):
Hello, Hi, So you're never gonna believe this.

Speaker 1 (53:10):
What do you want to go to Honolulu for ten days?

Speaker 5 (53:15):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (53:15):
My friend gave it to me.

Speaker 5 (53:17):
Who Kevin called me?

Speaker 23 (53:18):
He said that he won free airfare and free stay
in Honolulu?

Speaker 3 (53:22):
Sure, Kevin, Well do we call you like two days ago?

Speaker 7 (53:28):
But I forgot to even tell you, and instead, if
I wanted it, we could both go out there together.

Speaker 15 (53:31):
It's for ten days?

Speaker 1 (53:33):
Well no, he just kissed me off, but uh, he
wants to hang out and see me one night.

Speaker 5 (53:46):
Dude?

Speaker 3 (53:46):
He called me on Tuesday?

Speaker 9 (53:48):
Oh you just plug out to tell me? Yeah, I'm
sure you forget to tell me.

Speaker 1 (53:52):
I'm glad I found this out well on Christmas shoping.

Speaker 11 (53:55):
No, it's good.

Speaker 3 (53:56):
Good then go have full on them. You're not gonna
come no, sneak, dude. I don't want to be with that,
all right?

Speaker 15 (54:04):
Are you being serious?

Yeah?

Speaker 1 (54:06):

Listen, dude, listen, we do listen to me how often?

Speaker 6 (54:41):
I need?

Speaker 23 (54:42):
I don't talk to him that much. If we go there,
what do you saying I said, I don't talk to
him at all.

Speaker 5 (54:50):
The reason why I want to go out.

Speaker 16 (54:51):
There is because I have to get something very important
back from him.

Speaker 1 (54:55):
Yeah, what's that sex tape of me and him?

Speaker 3 (54:59):
We want to go out there Europe's good. We need
to go out there because I don't need you with
my wife. I don't need this good.

Speaker 23 (55:04):
We need to go out there because I need to
get them.

Speaker 3 (55:06):
You could they got up there and get them. I
need you to come with me because why not seeing
me when you get back?

Speaker 2 (55:10):
Dude?

Speaker 22 (55:10):
That's it.

Speaker 3 (55:11):
You're not gonna roa Christmas season.

Speaker 18 (55:13):
He won't give them to me unless you come with me.

Speaker 12 (55:15):
Yeah, well, how often are you talking?

Speaker 2 (55:17):
We're gonna get to the bombers right now.

Speaker 3 (55:19):
I don't talk to him at all. Do you talk
to him?

Speaker 7 (55:24):
He called me on Tuesday to tell me about the
Hawaii trip.

Speaker 1 (55:27):
Yeah, and how often I don't talk to him a wire?

Speaker 2 (55:31):
Dude?

Speaker 1 (55:31):
Can you I don't want to hear my life anymore?

Speaker 3 (55:33):
Are you gonna come with me?

Speaker 8 (55:34):

Speaker 1 (55:44):
Come on out to Hawaii? Meet up with me. You know,
I'll come out and meet you.

Speaker 3 (55:48):
That's great.

Speaker 1 (55:49):
One more thing, you've been phone tapped? Are you kidding me?
It's Elvis Duran.

Speaker 3 (55:55):
That's just what I needed to start.

Speaker 5 (55:57):
My dad, Helvis Teran. So time. This table was pre
recorded with permission granted by all participation.

Speaker 14 (56:05):
The Elvis Terran phone tap only on Elvis Duran in
the Morning Show.

Speaker 5 (56:15):
With you Elvis Duran in the Morning Show?

Speaker 11 (56:21):
A flat earther?

Speaker 1 (56:22):
If we want to hear from you now Texas with
fifty's quite hot flat earther?

Speaker 16 (56:30):
Was it?

Speaker 5 (56:31):
Ob Yeah?

Speaker 12 (56:33):
I believe Kyrie Irving may also be a flat earther.

Speaker 6 (56:37):
Do they say, where did you have to walk in
order to fall off the side?

Speaker 1 (56:41):
Off the edge?

Speaker 6 (56:42):
Okay, so we don't know where.

Speaker 1 (56:43):
Yeah, it's out there. It's out there with the water
goes from the ocean.

Speaker 11 (56:46):
We don't know.

Speaker 1 (56:47):
We don't know where is the edge like us in there.
I really think if we start trying to debate this,
it's really gonna lead nowhere. So you know, we move on.

Speaker 9 (56:56):
Elvis.

Speaker 13 (56:56):
Do you have anybody who like to send to the
edge of the flat Earth?

Speaker 1 (56:59):
Yes, you know, if there is, if there is an
end to the Earth, I have a list of people
and to sail out there me too.

Speaker 9 (57:05):
I like to add on to that when you.

Speaker 1 (57:07):
Make it all right, done deal? But hey, you know, uh,
here's the difference between me and a lot of people.
If someone says, hey, Elvis, I want to sit down
with you and have a serious conversation about you know
how I believe the Earth is flat and I have
a few points to prove it. You know, if I
like you and I'm friends with you, I'll not a stranger.
I'm not gonna put myself through that. But if I

(57:29):
know you and you're ready to talk about it, okay,
let's have a cocktail, let's talk about it. I wouldn't
mind hearing what you have to say. Yeah, I've never
really sat down with a flat earther.

Speaker 11 (57:37):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (57:39):
I mean, I happen to know from my what I've learned.
What I've learned is that I don't believe the Earth
is flat?

Speaker 5 (57:47):
Right?

Speaker 1 (57:48):
But may I can I sit here and tell you
with one hundred percent certainty that the Earth is round? Yes? Well,
I don't know. You know, pictures could have been jacked
around with. I don't know, you know, I don't know.

Speaker 7 (58:05):
Well, sure, I mean, if you don't want to believe
in any of the things that we've seen as fact
to be fact, then yeah, there could be a case
that it's not real. But once you you know, have
photographic evidence from the moon or people flying around the
Earth and taking pictures of it with drones exactly, you know,
all this stuff, it's really hard to wrap your head
around it all being flat then.

Speaker 1 (58:25):
Exactly, No, no, no, you know, I really fall on
the side of round earth theory, right. But I'm telling you,
if you spend enough time with a conspiracy theorist, yep,
and they are great words words craft. They craft their
words very well, and they give you Okay, if there's

(58:48):
any doubt with the jury, then you know we must
not equit. We must equit. You know what I'm saying.
Does that make sense?

Speaker 21 (58:55):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (58:55):
So it's like, Okay, I'll listen to what you have
to say, and you may have a really strong base
of evidence. I don't believe you, but I'm gonna give
you credit for actually doing a great job your case, Yeah,
putting up a good debate exactly.

Speaker 6 (59:12):
Sometimes just sit there and hear what you have to say.

Speaker 3 (59:14):
Exactly.

Speaker 1 (59:15):
See, there are some people who will just slam the
door on your face. No, no, I'll listen to you.

Speaker 11 (59:20):
I'm good.

Speaker 1 (59:20):
I'm good with that. Yeah, Froggy.

Speaker 13 (59:22):
You know one thing I've learned from you, Elvis, is
I've seen somebody like basically show you something that's blue
and no, go this is yellow, and you'll go, Okay,
you just walk away. You have that ability to just go.
You know what, if you want to, you want to
believe that, you go right ahead and it doesn't bother you.
I wish I had that gene.

Speaker 1 (59:40):
Okay, well, so okay, hold on, scary. So the debate
there is we're all different. All of our eyes see
things differently.

Speaker 3 (59:51):
Now they do.

Speaker 1 (59:52):
You may actually see what you perceive to be yellow,
it may not be yellow. Well okay, so I take
that into account. If you're going to tell me that
that's yellow, you I cannot sit here at one certainty
and tell you you're absolutely wrong.

Speaker 11 (01:00:08):
I can't.

Speaker 13 (01:00:08):
I've seen somebody look at a monster truck and tell
you it's a bike, and you go, yeah, you're.

Speaker 1 (01:00:12):
Right, you're right, it's a bike. Your reality could be
different than mine. Look, you know, look, I would tell
you that the majority of the people I know would
look at that color and say, no, that is blue.
If you had to take a vote on it, the
most people voted blue for that color. So I go, okay,
you may see yellow, but I will tell you the
majority of the people see blue, just to let.

Speaker 4 (01:00:33):
You know, right, do you know what I think about
all the time?

Speaker 12 (01:00:36):
Sort of what you're saying. But what if your blue
is actually my yellow? But I call it blue?

Speaker 11 (01:00:42):
Right?

Speaker 12 (01:00:42):
So I see the sky as what you would perceive
is yellow, I call it blue.

Speaker 7 (01:00:46):
And that's the way I take in everything in the world.
So what if we all have the favorite it's the
same favorite color. We just see every color on the
spectrum differently. It's it's coated differently for each one of us.

Speaker 1 (01:00:55):
And that's probably the case.

Speaker 12 (01:00:56):
Yeah, that's so cool to think about.

Speaker 6 (01:01:00):
One has color his colorblind, his greens met and his
browns like he switches them so like the bark on
the tree looks green to him and the leaves look brown.
So I got him those colorblind glasses and he put
them on, and oh my goodness, he's like, dude, this
is crazy, like so amazing. He sees a whole new world. Now,

(01:01:21):
it's awesome.

Speaker 1 (01:01:22):
That's awesome, and by the way, people are texting him
some weird things. Yes, and we're trying to call a
few flat earthers. They're not answering the phone and that's okay, okay,
Well I love that they got to watch their step.
They don't have time to pick up phone side what's scary.

Speaker 18 (01:01:35):
But what I don't understand, though, is we've all seen
a round figure called Earth from satellite images.

Speaker 1 (01:01:43):
We have photographic proof, we have all seen the space
and all that. So so with that knowledge, that isn't
that physical proof right.

Speaker 11 (01:01:51):
There that it is?

Speaker 1 (01:01:52):
But some would argue that that's all made up?

Speaker 6 (01:01:55):
So wait a minute, So do they believe that all
planets are flat?

Speaker 13 (01:01:59):
Like not just I don't know, We're we're still working
on Earth.

Speaker 11 (01:02:06):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:02:08):
Look, you know what, I'm a firm believer in Hey,
you know what you your perception is your perception in
mine is mine. As long as no one's getting hurt
here and no one's making someone feel like crap because
they believe in something. That's why I've not said here
and said flat earthers are x y Z. I'm not
going to do it. So and you know, there you go,
just because I have an open mind doesn't mean I'm

(01:02:29):
being gaslighted as this person is accusing me of doing,
And it.

Speaker 12 (01:02:34):
Doesn't mean you agree.

Speaker 7 (01:02:35):
It just means you're willing to listen to what somebody
has to say and not fight them about it.

Speaker 1 (01:02:40):
You can easily block them like that. All right, So
we move We move ahead. I don't this conversation may
be just a bit of a headache for some, but look,
perception is perception, and you know, in this, in this crazy,
crazy universe we live in, it's easier just to say, yeah,
you're right, that monster truck is a bicycle and we

(01:03:01):
move on.

Speaker 13 (01:03:02):
I've been with you when you've done that, and it's
quite comical.

Speaker 3 (01:03:05):
I'm like, wow, what was it?

Speaker 1 (01:03:06):
Do you remember?

Speaker 13 (01:03:07):
I don't remember. Somebody was trying to get you to
see something that they were they were wrong, and he
were just like okay, yeah, okay, yeah you want you're right.
He just walked away and he looked at me and
we walked away and said we're never going to get
anywhere arguing with him. Look how quick that was just
to walk away.

Speaker 1 (01:03:23):
Yeah, just say you're absolutely, just walk away, you are correct. Yeah,
And if if someone perceives that as weakness. Oh, my friend,
you were wrong.

Speaker 13 (01:03:33):
That is Oh I see that as a strength.

Speaker 1 (01:03:35):
No, that's called strength, strength.

Speaker 6 (01:03:37):
Being able to just walk away from Can you imagine
Brody could do that, if he could just walk away.

Speaker 1 (01:03:42):
It's nice just to bring that up like.

Speaker 6 (01:03:43):
That, because well everybody knows that of all of us,
Rody is the one that would argue. If he believed
in a point, he would argue it until you you
realized he was right.

Speaker 1 (01:03:53):
You're putting now we have to put him on. You
shouldn't have brought him up up. Hey, Brody, it's only fair.

Speaker 22 (01:04:00):
I'm sitting here shaking.

Speaker 1 (01:04:02):
It's only fair for you to be able to come
on and uh and uh say what's on your mind.

Speaker 22 (01:04:08):
Well, I appreciate that, Elvis. You're a better person than
I am because you value the opinions of everyone.

Speaker 26 (01:04:14):
And that's great.

Speaker 20 (01:04:15):
You're a better man.

Speaker 22 (01:04:16):
But if somebody tells me the sky is yellow, I
will yell at them for the next fourteen days about it.
I don't have tolerance for flat earthers. I don't appreciate
their opinions. And I'm shaking listening to.

Speaker 26 (01:04:28):
You being so calm about it. Oh my god, Okay,
listen I was in a jewelry store yesterday and they
had a typed up sign and it was missing an apostrophe,
and I had to take a pen from the cup
they had by the register and put an apostrophe on
the sign.

Speaker 11 (01:04:44):
That's how I am.

Speaker 2 (01:04:47):
Right.

Speaker 12 (01:04:47):
It has to be all right, get me a stressful
way to be every day.

Speaker 22 (01:04:51):
I feel for you, Well, I don't have to be right.
I just enjoy being right, and I don't want to
go through life being wrong. I think I think I'd
rather be right than wrong, So I do my best
a better place by putting out a postrophe.

Speaker 1 (01:05:05):
Okay, you are, You're making the world a much better place.
But Berdie, you know we've we've known you for many years,
and you have so many qualities that are that are
the ones that should be pointed out and celebrated, and
your need to be right all the time is not
not in the top ten.

Speaker 26 (01:05:19):
Right you, You are correct.

Speaker 22 (01:05:21):
I have a lot of good qualities, but Danielle likes
the ones that are that are objectionable to some.

Speaker 9 (01:05:27):
That's fine.

Speaker 22 (01:05:27):
I'd rather be know. I'd rather be known for something
than not known at all, right, So I'll take what
I can get.

Speaker 3 (01:05:32):
Hmm.

Speaker 1 (01:05:33):
All right. Well, with that said, uh, this guy's yellow place. Hold.
We got to move on. And by the way, if
you have if you have a problem with us trying
to just have a conversation with this, then you feel
free to go listen to someone else. I have no
problem with that. I'll happily, happily escort you to the door.

Speaker 3 (01:05:58):
Hold on, someone in here. Why are you pooping in
my house? Trying to eat lots of cookies and sometimes
that makes diarrhea.

Speaker 5 (01:06:07):
Merry Christmas from Elvis Duran in the Morning Show.

Speaker 1 (01:06:22):
Hi, I'm chaperone he Smith.

Speaker 5 (01:06:24):
Hey, it's Katy Perry, wishing you a very merry Christmas.
Elvis Duran in the Morning Show.

Speaker 1 (01:06:31):
Hey have you seen these shirts? The I love Elvis
Duran shirts? No, no, all right here, hold on, I'm
holding it up in the zoom room. There they are.

Speaker 6 (01:06:46):
That don't wear that?

Speaker 1 (01:06:47):
I heeart Elvis Durant in the Morning Show. So I
saw these online. I'm like, oh, wow, those are cool.
Who's selling those?

Speaker 11 (01:06:55):
Not us?

Speaker 1 (01:06:56):
Oh it's not us, No, it's not it's wait, it's
actually you know it look no offense, but this is
a trademark show. And you know, if you you know,
if you print up shirts they say I love Elvis
trend the Morning Show, and it's not us and you're
making money off of it, then technically it's illegal.

Speaker 12 (01:07:14):
But those are our colors and everything.

Speaker 10 (01:07:16):
I know.

Speaker 1 (01:07:16):
But here's the problem. Here's my problem. I don't have
a problem with it.

Speaker 3 (01:07:20):
I'm okay with it.

Speaker 1 (01:07:21):
Okay, So I'm online on this on the on Instagram.
It's called Kimberly's Trendy Boutique. And I saw these several
weeks ago, and I just I liked it. I'm like, oh,
I like that shirt. That's us. Wait, wait a minute,
who's selling this? You can buy them? Okay? So yeah,
technically it's illegal. Yeah, but I have a problem with it.

Speaker 6 (01:07:42):
Because she's promoting our show. I think it's correct.

Speaker 13 (01:07:45):
Well, but she's making money off of it, right, that's
the problem.

Speaker 1 (01:07:48):
Well, but my problem again is I don't have a
problem with it. Look, it's Kimberly's Trendy Boutique. You can
look it up on Instagram. Feel free to go buy
as many shirts as you want. She's obviously I'm hoping
I want to talk to her. Hope she a fan
of the show. Now, look, if it was like Nike
or someone like that selling all this train merchant I said,
then I would have an issue. I want to go
in for the cut, you know, yes, And they would

(01:08:10):
never do that. They have attorneys that would tell them
not to do it. Obviously, Kimberly didn't check an attorney,
didn't ask anyone permission. And again I'm fine with it.
It goes back to the remember those morning shows. There
was one up in Vermont that was ripping us off. Yes,
they would actually listen to a phone tap and they
would write it down word for word, and they would

(01:08:30):
act it out and they would play them back on
their show Gundies before you were here, and it's scary,
Like Tristan's an outrage. You're ripping a show off, and
I'm like, I don't care.

Speaker 5 (01:08:39):
Let him do it.

Speaker 6 (01:08:40):
Five I love that pissed me off.

Speaker 13 (01:08:45):
The same show with Chantelle's Big Boxes, the same place
that pissed me.

Speaker 6 (01:08:49):
Off because we did all the work and then they
went back and didn't do anything but transcribe the work.

Speaker 13 (01:08:56):
We're doing the works and she's selling shirts off of
our show.

Speaker 3 (01:08:59):
That's not like if if I.

Speaker 6 (01:09:00):
Started she was promoting the show Frog. At least she's
promoting the show. Chan Tell was not promoting the show.

Speaker 1 (01:09:06):
She was promoting her body.

Speaker 13 (01:09:07):
If I went today and started Froggy's boutique and I
started selling shirts with like the New York Giants logo
on them, or the Jets logo or the Buccaneer's.

Speaker 9 (01:09:15):
Logo, they would they would, They would sue me.

Speaker 11 (01:09:17):
They would.

Speaker 1 (01:09:18):
You can't do that, They would sue you. It's the
same thing and I had. But I'm telling you it's not.
I mean, I don't care. It's like, I don't get
upset at this. I hope Kimberly's boutique sells a billion
of them. I want. I think that's great. I love
the fact that she just said, screw it, I'm just
gonna sell them. You know, it doesn't matter.

Speaker 7 (01:09:35):
I don't care if she sells a billion of them.
Are we then going to say, Okay, now you owe
us some of that, Okay, I don't.

Speaker 1 (01:09:41):
I don't think she's going to sell a billion.

Speaker 5 (01:09:43):
No, but for all of us.

Speaker 4 (01:09:45):
I don't like she sells a billion, by.

Speaker 6 (01:09:46):
The way, I don't know, cheaper than ours thirty six dollars?

Speaker 11 (01:09:53):
Why all right?

Speaker 3 (01:09:54):
I want to cut it.

Speaker 9 (01:09:55):
Never mind, I want to cut I thought they were
like ten bucks.

Speaker 12 (01:09:58):
It's expensive.

Speaker 1 (01:09:59):
Oh no, I want her to I want her to
charge a little more. That's an expensive Disney characters on.

Speaker 7 (01:10:07):
Them took Disney stepond.

Speaker 1 (01:10:10):
Okay, I can't help her with those. That's a copyright infringement.
But if if she wants to sell the the I
Love Elvis Durand in the Morning Show shirts for thirty
six dollars. It's an Etsy, it's an Etsy account, then
you know, Okay, you know, I'll keep an eye on it,
but you know whatever, It's like when I.

Speaker 6 (01:10:28):
Used to do children's birthday parties and the place I
worked for didn't want to pay for the rights, so
when somebody would want like Rapunzel to come, they wouldn't
ask for we want the princess with the long hair,
like yeah, Like they wouldn't give him the names.

Speaker 11 (01:10:46):
You know, do you have that?

Speaker 1 (01:10:48):
Do you have Joanne on the phone?

Speaker 11 (01:10:49):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:10:51):
Is Nate not listening today?

Speaker 10 (01:10:53):
Nate?

Speaker 5 (01:10:53):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (01:10:54):
Do you have Joanne on the phone?

Speaker 5 (01:10:56):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (01:10:57):
Why why are we having your communication issue? You and me? Hello,
it's here one. You're not even looking at me. I'm like,
do you my screen.

Speaker 6 (01:11:09):
Pants on the air.

Speaker 1 (01:11:11):
I've been listening to you for the past thirty I
asked him if she was on the phone, and he
only didn't even answer me. I thought you were asking, scary. No,
you're my go to guy.

Speaker 5 (01:11:19):
You're my guy.

Speaker 1 (01:11:19):
Joanne is on the phone. She's live with you now, Okay, Joanne,
I'm doing fine. So do you You went onto uh
this boutique's website and you bought this shirt thirty six
dollars worth?

Speaker 10 (01:11:32):
Right?

Speaker 1 (01:11:33):
Was it thirty six when you bought it to?

Speaker 25 (01:11:35):
Yes, it was.

Speaker 17 (01:11:37):
That's so expensive?

Speaker 15 (01:11:38):
And what it was? It was the eldest story on
fan page and it said, mister Michael Alzheimer is my
favorite telew marketer.

Speaker 1 (01:11:45):
Oh wait wait, there's another shirt for mister Michael, mister
Michael Oppenheimer.

Speaker 9 (01:11:49):
Wow, hold on, scary though, to cut on that.

Speaker 1 (01:11:55):
That's my character that.

Speaker 6 (01:11:58):
Miss marshallopsis is feeling a little left out right now.

Speaker 1 (01:12:01):
I'm just saying she's an old lady. Have some respect, right, Okay,
So thirty six dollars for the I Love Elvistran Morning
Show shirt? It was is the Michael Oppenheimer's shirt at
the same price. I didn't see that on the.

Speaker 23 (01:12:13):
List, So my question was was it ole?

Speaker 16 (01:12:17):
Kay?

Speaker 20 (01:12:17):
That I bought it.

Speaker 1 (01:12:19):
Okay, sure, everyone else on the show is but hurt
over it, and but I and it's my name. Basically,
I don't, I don't should I have a problem with this.
I don't have a problem with it.

Speaker 6 (01:12:32):
I'm okay, look, you know I I don't.

Speaker 1 (01:12:34):
But on the other hand, I don't want to set
an example where everyone's going to come up with the
Elvestrand shirt, you know. And also, you know all these
people who are selling on Etsy and you know, these
online people, I don't want them to think that they
can start like ripping people off and get away with it,
you know. So I don't want to set a bad
example there. But at the same time, I'm flattered that

(01:12:57):
she did the and it's a great design. Yeah, she designed,
She did a great job. So I mean, I'm assuming
it's a she I don't know, did you Did you
actually talk to this person or you just ordered off
the mail.

Speaker 13 (01:13:08):
Or mail order I dis ordered.

Trade Morning Show shirt from this this person?

this shirt online weeks ago and I thought it was
I was very impressed, and I realized I don't know
who's making money off of us. All right, listen, listen,
thanks for listening to us.

Speaker 11 (01:14:12):
Joeanne.

Speaker 1 (01:14:13):
You go have a great day. Enjoy your shirt when
he gets there. Okay, okay, okay, yeah, okay. It's illegal.
I mean, so is speeding, you know, speed all the
time in my car. Somebody came up with a great idea.

Speaker 18 (01:14:27):
In the text message, they say that they think that
this woman should donate the profits of these shirts to
the phone tap fund.

Speaker 1 (01:14:35):
I can think of much more worthy organizations that need
her money. No offense.

Speaker 6 (01:14:42):
Okay, carry you were wearing a shirt the other day
that said, Michael Oppenheimer is my favorite dome mark it.

Speaker 1 (01:14:47):
There's a shirt that she spoke of. Yeah, they sent
one to me. It has my name on the shirts
aka Scary Jones. So are they selling them? Yeah, it's
it's it's right there next to the other, the Elvis
Durrand's shirt. Does it bother you that they're they're selling
a shirt with your character's name on there, and you're
not getting a penny off of him. At first, I
was a little taken aback by it, But you're making it.

(01:15:10):
You're actually softening the blow, and you're actually making a
good case. Elvis.

Speaker 18 (01:15:13):
I'm actually less offended the fact that you're not offended
because I'm part of your brand.

Speaker 1 (01:15:18):
See now she's coming out on a whole line of shirts.
Apparently she's making shirts.

Speaker 18 (01:15:21):
About everybody on the show, so it's each individual person
up to there.

Speaker 1 (01:15:25):
You know, well, I will tell you this, you know,
I Heeart could have a problem with it, but I
don't know. I haven't heard from him. What's what's should
we at least get approval.

Speaker 19 (01:15:33):
If they're making his shirt, you know about us, should
we at least get approval on that, on this new
leg merchandise.

Speaker 1 (01:15:39):
Look, if it was if it was offensive, or if
it was really not tasteful at all, we would we
would stick the dogs on them. I have no problem
doing that. But I don't see a problem. I think
it looks like a nice shirt. It looks good and okay, you.

Speaker 12 (01:15:52):
Know, yeah, I would have thought it came from us.

Speaker 1 (01:15:54):
She's doing a good job. No, actually, it's better than
the crap we put out. I think her shirt's much
better than name of No, I'm kidding. I will tell
you there was one year we did a Z one
hundred concert out at Nasau Coliseum on Long Island, and
when we were leaving, there were these guys out in
the parking lot selling Z one hundred shirts and they
were cool. They were total bootleg. They're much cooler than

(01:16:18):
the ones we were selling inside. So I've got one.
I'm like, oh, buy one.

Speaker 6 (01:16:21):
Scotty used to go out there and he used to
be like the patrol for that. He would go and
he would take the shirts away from all the bootleggers
and yell at them and finish shit.

Speaker 1 (01:16:32):
You know, man, I think I spent thirty dollars. I
bought our own bootleg shirt. It was a rainbow shirt.
It was really cool. All right, So who is ripping
us off to? How are you going to rip us off?
We want to hear from you now? You want to
start a new Elvis Draan morning show line of what
name it?

Speaker 15 (01:16:47):
You know?

Speaker 18 (01:16:49):
Would you be offended, Elvis if she started printing copies
of your book? Where do I begin sell and selling those?

Speaker 13 (01:16:55):
Well?

Speaker 1 (01:16:55):
See that's those those books actually belong to Simon Schuster
that they would have a problem with that. Yeah, I
only get a little teeny tiny piece of that anyway.
So what about Okay, Nate, Nate needs to have like
a blood spattered shirt. He says, what, I'm not a murderer. Yeah,
Nate is a murderer. I wouldn't approve of that because

(01:17:18):
you know, I'm not a murderer.

Speaker 19 (01:17:20):
And then she's having random people walking around with that
shirt says I'm a murderer.

Speaker 1 (01:17:25):
Was perpetuating this myth? What what would Danielle shirt be like?
Listen curse words.

Speaker 9 (01:17:32):
Or I steal bananas from the grocery store.

Speaker 6 (01:17:34):
No, I don't do it anymore.

Speaker 1 (01:17:37):
Gandhi, what's Gandhi shirt going to say? Would you have?

Speaker 6 (01:17:41):
It's just a bringer of her token up I think, yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:17:43):
Take that.

Speaker 4 (01:17:44):
That's fine.

Speaker 27 (01:17:45):
Or every animal in the world and Gandhi in the
middle of the ball. Hello, anyway, not offended, but not yet.
We're gonna We're gonna monitor this situation.

Speaker 1 (01:17:57):
What's that scary naughty cookie box? There's Shelley. Hello, Lady
Penis cookies?

Speaker 11 (01:18:01):
All right, I.

Speaker 9 (01:18:08):
Want to go there.

Speaker 1 (01:18:09):
Uncle Johnny could have a problem with Hello, Lady Penis cookies.

Speaker 5 (01:18:13):
We are look at this?

Speaker 13 (01:18:16):
That funny?

Speaker 1 (01:18:17):
I don't know it's so, it's kind of funny. I
was just thinking, like the things in this world that
set me off and things that don't. Maybe I should
reverse those. Maybe the things the things that I should
be mad at and I'm not I should be mad at,
you know, and the things that I do be mad at,
I should just let them go.

Speaker 11 (01:18:33):
What to day?

Speaker 3 (01:18:34):
What today? Christmas is almost here? What's this going on here? Alf?

Speaker 1 (01:18:50):
Elf helf orgy or else?

Speaker 6 (01:18:53):
It's an elf orgy? Dear care to join us?

Speaker 11 (01:18:58):
Well?

Speaker 3 (01:18:59):
It has been a long day.

Speaker 5 (01:19:05):
Merry Christmas from Elvis Tera ran in the Morning show.

Speaker 11 (01:19:12):
Who is bring good Daddy?

Speaker 1 (01:19:15):
I hope you your dad than.

Speaker 14 (01:19:18):
Merry Christmas from Elvis Da ran in the morning show.

Speaker 1 (01:19:23):
So I was reading this morning. There is a guy,
the best selling author. His name is Dan Here. He's
traveled close. He's studying how people live long, happy lives,
and in a recent interview he kind of laid out
the top eight habits of the world's happiest people based
on research and all the people he's met. He says,

(01:19:45):
there are eight things you can do to feel happier
every day. Are we ready to explore?

Speaker 11 (01:19:50):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (01:19:51):
Do I have your attention? Number One, You need to
get at least eight hours of sleep.

Speaker 4 (01:19:58):
Damn it?

Speaker 11 (01:19:59):
Where goes that?

Speaker 1 (01:20:01):
Is that at once? Or can that be added up?

Speaker 16 (01:20:04):
Bro?

Speaker 9 (01:20:04):
You cannot add sleep. I had a sleep doctor.

Speaker 1 (01:20:06):
Tell me that the happiest people sleep eight to nine
and a half hours to night.

Speaker 6 (01:20:11):
Well, there goes that.

Speaker 1 (01:20:12):
Number Two. You need to eat a plant based breakfast.
You guys, why is this funny? Why this isn't funny
for breakfast two days ago?

Speaker 12 (01:20:26):
I really come on like bacon sauceage.

Speaker 1 (01:20:30):
He says, the happiest people on earth stay away from
too much meat and dairy in the morning and sugary
cereal and no. Number three, number three from the list
of eight habits of the World's Happiest people. This is
a good one. Socialize. The more the better I dealing
with people you like, of course. I think we get

(01:20:52):
our quota every day here.

Speaker 6 (01:20:53):
Yeah, we have that.

Speaker 1 (01:20:56):
Also another habit of the world's happiest people volunteer.

Speaker 6 (01:21:00):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:21:01):
People who tend to feel happier, more satisfied with their lives,
and have fewer symptoms of depression are ones who are volunteering.

Speaker 12 (01:21:08):
Hell yeah, that's good.

Speaker 1 (01:21:09):
Hm, I gotta work on that one. Number five. Take naps.

Speaker 12 (01:21:17):
Absolutely, we're on top of that.

Speaker 1 (01:21:18):
Yeah, okay, Like quick power naps thirty minutes or less.
It leaves you more focused.

Speaker 4 (01:21:23):
No, no, no, I like it's more of a sleep
than a nap knock out for a couple hours.

Speaker 1 (01:21:29):
Well, Daniel, how come you can't take like a thirty
minute nap.

Speaker 6 (01:21:32):
I mean I can, It's just not the same as
a two hour nap.

Speaker 3 (01:21:38):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:21:38):
You know what, Alex will come home and PLoP down
on the couch and close his eyes. He'll I'm just
gonna take a quick nap and he'll wake up three
hours later. I'm like, what are you doing?

Speaker 2 (01:21:47):
Oh?

Speaker 6 (01:21:48):
Good for him?

Speaker 1 (01:21:49):
He's like, I said, don't you miss those three hours?
You could have been doing something. No, I did something.
It was called napping. Yeah anyway, Yeah, quick power naps.
They say thirty minutes or less leave you more focused, creative,
and productive. And that's on top of the nine and
a half hours of sleep you need to get every night.
The number six on the list I love from the
eight habits of the World's Happiest People. Have faith. Doesn't

(01:22:12):
matter what you believe in. Studies show people who are
religious or faithful or are more likely to describe themselves
as very happy. I believe that believing in the power
of the universe, believing in the power of God. You know,
whatever it is you're believing in, you need to believe,
believe in it more. It's good for you. Any question
so far, No, keep going. Number seven. Limit your TV

(01:22:35):
and social media. Are you ready for this? Yeah, he's
saying the happiest people, the ideal amount is no more
than thirty minutes of a day of each to that
TV and social media. The problem is is, you know,
some of the shows we watch are more than thirty
minutes long. Right, so that's one show and a quick

(01:22:56):
skim of your favorite social media platforms and boom, you're done.

Speaker 6 (01:23:00):
Yeah, totally.

Speaker 7 (01:23:00):
I think when you're on social media all day, all
you're doing is looking at other people's lives and comparing
yourself to you know, do you meet the right standards?
Are you pretty enough? Are you skinny enough? Are you
happy enough? All of these different things, and you could
easily just get away from that.

Speaker 1 (01:23:14):
All right, here's one, the last one on the list
of the eight habits of the World's Happiest people. Number eight. Uh,
maybe not doable for most of us. Do not work
full time?

Speaker 6 (01:23:25):
Oh come on, what.

Speaker 13 (01:23:27):
How do you not do that?

Speaker 11 (01:23:29):
Right?

Speaker 1 (01:23:29):
Okay, the people here yelling who have a four hour
a day job, five days a week.

Speaker 12 (01:23:34):
No, but there's so much outside of work that we
still do. But also, like, let's take us out of
the mix.

Speaker 7 (01:23:41):
The everyday american can't afford that anymore. People have a
full time job and still need another job with the
costs of everything.

Speaker 10 (01:23:48):
Now.

Speaker 1 (01:23:48):
Well, but but he hear him out, and maybe it
could help you augment a little bit. Do not work
full time. You won't be happy if you can't make ends.

Speaker 13 (01:23:59):
Meet.

Speaker 1 (01:23:59):
But in a perfect world, part time is better. People
who work less than thirty five hours a week tend
to be the happiest people overall.

Speaker 11 (01:24:06):
And there you go.

Speaker 1 (01:24:08):
So, in other words, you gotta find ways to cut corners,
be less productive at work. I don't know, remember when
you said last week you really should only be giving
eighty five percent at work, not one hundred percent. Yes,
I think this sort of I think this sort of
plays into that a little bit, just saying if you
if you work too hard, you're missing out on other
things that could be more enjoyable, taking care of yourself,

(01:24:30):
going on walks, hanging out with people, socializing, traveling, whatever. No, no,
we got to work, we got.

Speaker 15 (01:24:35):
We have that.

Speaker 1 (01:24:36):
But he's he's just say, fine, ways to skip out
a little bit, to take it, take a day off
here and there. Yeah, what's scary.

Speaker 18 (01:24:44):
But how do you strike a healthy balance between working
hard and slacking off? I mean, I feel like there's
like a fine line there or something, or you know,
something's there.

Speaker 1 (01:24:53):
I don't know.

Speaker 18 (01:24:54):
I mean I feel like if you're not paying attention
or are you're doing something out of sorts, you know,
you get reprimanded for it. So and that could be
the fifteen percent that you're pulling back on.

Speaker 1 (01:25:06):
I don't know, I just I'm just saying what the
guy is talking about. Why why you're yelling at me?
It's it's interesting. Exercises not on the list, not on
this list. Anyway, I thought it was kind of well,
it's it's so well in covering again, eight hours of sleep,
at least, eat a plant based breakfast, socialized volunteer, take naps,

(01:25:29):
have faith, limit your TV and social media, and don't work. Yeah, okay,
the last one is a little iffy. Yeah, what's that?

Speaker 10 (01:25:37):
Nate?

Speaker 11 (01:25:37):
Okay?

Speaker 1 (01:25:38):
Who wrote this list?

Speaker 26 (01:25:39):
Right?

Speaker 1 (01:25:39):
Because I think this has something to do with maybe
where you live?

Speaker 16 (01:25:43):
Right?

Speaker 1 (01:25:44):
Well, he traveled Okay, keep in mind, I'll repeat it.
Dan Bututner is an author. He traveled the globe studying
how people live and how they live longer and live
happy lives, and he laid out these top eight habits
of the people he was interviewing who seem to be
the happiest people.

Speaker 3 (01:26:00):
That's it.

Speaker 19 (01:26:01):
So maybe where these people are, they're just naturally happier
because they're in Costa Rica or something.

Speaker 11 (01:26:07):
It could be.

Speaker 1 (01:26:08):
It could be it could be the environment they live
in Absolutely it could be. But I mean these are
things they all had in common, getting more sleep, eating better, socializing, volunteering.
I mean those are very to me, they'll seem very
solid benchmarks.

Speaker 4 (01:26:22):
Definitely. Yeah, it just makes me nervous because ours is sleep.

Speaker 1 (01:26:26):
Come on, I would love to do I don't I
don't know what that is. I mean, I don't think
I've ever had eight hours to sleep, not in the
past thirty years. But hey, let me ask you a question.
If someone tells you something in confidence and you swear
I'm not gonna I will never ever say this to
anyone what you just told me.

Speaker 17 (01:26:46):
Is it still okay to tell your significant other? No, exactly,
you won't tell anybody exactly.

Speaker 1 (01:26:57):
Well know that that that is the foundation of what
was tall. Look, I'm gonna trust you with something, but
you can't tell anyone, see, and then you go home,
you tell your significant significant other. People think they're different.

Speaker 6 (01:27:10):
Than I feel like you have to say, or Sheldon
like when you're talking to me and you say, don't
tell anyone, not even Sheldon, like, that has to be
in the equation. If not, Sheldon's gonna find out because
I tell him everything exactly.

Speaker 1 (01:27:25):
I bring this up because this was a debate between
several of us several days ago, like, well, you told
me not to tell anyone, and I didn't, but I
did share it with my significant other exactly. It is
a person point.

Speaker 6 (01:27:40):
Don't you just feel like your other half is kind
of like just an extension of yourself.

Speaker 1 (01:27:45):
So that's that's the debate. But no, I don't. But
if someone says, hey, don't tell anyone, I'm not. I'm
not going to tell Alex. I'm not gonna I'm not
going to share that with him.

Speaker 6 (01:27:57):
See my mom always does prefaceism with and yeah, don't
even tell Sheldon all the time because if there's something
she does she's embarrassed about or whatever, she's like, please,
I know you're gonna tell him, don't tell them, like
she knows she knows to tell me that.

Speaker 13 (01:28:10):
And do you go home and tell them anywhere?

Speaker 16 (01:28:12):
No?

Speaker 6 (01:28:12):
Then I if it's something like with my mom that's
embarrassing and she really wants to keep it, then I won't.

Speaker 1 (01:28:17):
Tell him, right Okay, anyway, anything else.

Speaker 7 (01:28:20):
Oh my god, I'm like so shook it right now
because I'm thinking of all the times that I've said
something to one of my friends and said, don't tell anyone,
and then does there significant other?

Speaker 5 (01:28:28):
No?

Speaker 6 (01:28:28):
Oh my god, yep.

Speaker 1 (01:28:30):
Well, because if they're significant other nos, then they may
tell someone and then it starts to multiply, right.

Speaker 12 (01:28:37):
I don't think Hell on earth?

Speaker 1 (01:28:38):
Oh my god, hell on Earth? What up, Nate? I
think that was It was a Seinfeld episode, wasn't it.

Speaker 19 (01:28:45):
I think it's generally implied if you tell something to someone,
the significant other finds out.

Speaker 1 (01:28:50):
No, God, I thought, I like this text. As long
as they're not in the same friend group, then it's okay, Kennedy.
Someone else says, when you're married, you become one person.
So technically you didn't tell anyone. We're not one person.

(01:29:10):
We're two different people. We're two separate people. I don't
want to be the same person as anyone else. I'm
me and they're them.

Speaker 6 (01:29:17):
Do you guys remember the Pretty Little Liar's theme song
to the show Two can keep a secret if one
of them is dead?

Speaker 12 (01:29:23):
Exactly?

Speaker 5 (01:29:26):
There you go.

Speaker 1 (01:29:26):
All right, I'm gonna tell you something that I'm going
to have to kill you.

Speaker 3 (01:29:29):
Right, Hello, little Louis, what do you want for Christmas?

Speaker 11 (01:29:35):
This year?

Speaker 12 (01:29:36):
I really want to go to the North poole.

Speaker 2 (01:29:38):
Yes.

Speaker 5 (01:29:45):
Merry Christmas from Elvister Ran in The Morning.

Speaker 3 (01:29:49):
Show, Christmas.

Speaker 11 (01:30:03):
To you.

Speaker 3 (01:30:04):
I listened to you every single morning. Have a great holiday.

Speaker 14 (01:30:09):
Merry Christmas from Elvis Duran in The Morning Show, Daniel.

Speaker 1 (01:30:14):
Does elf and a shelf make you a good parent?

Speaker 5 (01:30:16):
Really?

Speaker 3 (01:30:18):
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (01:30:19):
I mean I I Santa sent it, so I mean,
you know, it's.

Speaker 1 (01:30:24):
Okay.

Speaker 6 (01:30:25):
You know, everybody is well. It depends on the house.
Certain houses I just don't have. But certain houses are
designated in elf. Maybe they need more help.

Speaker 1 (01:30:33):
I don't know. I have this this train of fun
since look I'm not a parent, so who am I?
But here we go. I think the elf on the
shelf is kind of a bully, a little.

Speaker 12 (01:30:42):
Bit a little bit and a little bit of a
creep too, a.

Speaker 1 (01:30:45):
Little creeper, a little bully watching Really, he's always watching you,
and he's bullying you into doing things he wants you
to do.

Speaker 7 (01:30:52):
And also kind of a snitch, Like who wants that
in their house? A bully, a snitch, and a creeper.

Speaker 6 (01:30:57):
Yeah, sometimes it's the best way to get your kids
to behave during the holiday season. Some people wish that
elf would come in, you know, mid March and.

Speaker 1 (01:31:08):
By they keep it. My Gandhi and Meat talking about this,
two people who will never have kids. So we don't know,
We don't understand the pressures of the holiday season, right.

Speaker 6 (01:31:15):
I love the elf on the shelf, Like this morning,
he actually brought a little elf with him, which I
have no idea where he came from. He's just so cute.
So well, here you go, here Santa.

Speaker 16 (01:31:26):
All I went for Christmas this year is a fan
because I love the way it feels on me when
I go to sleep.

Speaker 2 (01:31:32):
Dear Emily, here's your fan, and here's Santa stomping on
it with his big black boots.

Speaker 3 (01:31:42):
I hope you never fall asleep, Love Santa.

Speaker 5 (01:31:48):
