Speaker 1 (00:03):
What would you talk about on your on your podcast
Fine Elvis Presents Morning Show is dying. We were just
talking to her friend, Danielle DeLillo, and she has a
(00:25):
very thick, thick Brooklyn accent, and she doesn't have an accent.
You don't have an intern accent? Game, what did you
What did you say her? What was a podcast or
a new app? What's it called? It's oh, bab's in
a babbels just babbel about shit. So you go on
a date with Hunt. She just comes over and babbels
about ship Danielle Delo that we were just talking about.
(00:49):
I'm an intern for Elvis Duran in the Morning Show.
I am now going to get a glass of water,
a cup of coffee, and a bagel and put them
in my shopping bag. Then I'm going to go for
a ride in a taxicab to Long Island while eating
an apple. I do not have an accent, not the
least you know. I grew up in Erie, Pennsylvania, which
is a region of this country that's fairly accentless. So
(01:11):
I would watch TV shows and movies about New York
City and hear these people going, hey, when you problem
will you? And I just thought that it was all
made up, and then I moved here, and I'd be
standing in line in a Delhi and some guy goes, hey,
can you put some more meat on the sandwich? Will
be it's actually real people to me, Like, to me,
it's still a caricature because I'm so not used to
(01:34):
hearing it's still that. It really is so funny start
hanging around with people and then start talking the way
they do, or you kind of you kind of like
detend depending on the group of people that you're with,
you literally behave that way. Like when I'm with my
smart people, my smart friends comparisons a little bit more
you know, uh, you know, studious, and I speak like this,
(01:56):
But when my Brooklyn friends, all the Brooklyn he comes out.
Happens when you go back to your roots, when you're
hanging out with the people that you grew up with,
you tend to fall into that like category. Like I'm
sure when you go back to Wisconsin, you your accent
comes back even more. When I'm hanging out with my
Bronx people, I'm It's like, what the fuck I mean
this is? But like if I'm sitting here talking you Nate,
(02:18):
I'm not going to just say what you know, it's funny.
I was listening to an old air check of you
from years ago when you were first on the show,
and it was so thick back then, so thick, almost
unrecognizable from now. Growing up. Why were you listening to that?
You know a little bit? So growing up at stat Island.
Staten Island is a part of New York where it's
(02:39):
almost Italian. I am that five percent that is an Italian.
So having friends that grow up wearing vlor suits, gold chains,
slip back care and every time I talked, I was
the minority and what did the men wear. So so
every time I talked, all my friends are like, yeah,
how come you don't sound like you're you're like us
(03:00):
because I'm not Italian. I didn't grow up around the town.
And then when people here I'm from Staten Island, they go,
why don't you sound like you're from Yeah, And I'm
from the part of Brooklyn that's that's across the bridge
from Staten Island. And I was the only non Italian
in my neighborhood. And so you know, if I get
upset and angry, I sound like I'm from there. But
(03:21):
I try not to and people say, oh, you're from Bensonhurst. Yeah,
you know. But when when you cut me off in traffic,
I'm like you motherfucker you ta And I go down
to the hip hop station, I actually start talking street
what is that? What is that? From? Angel and Charlotte
(03:45):
and Angeli and DJ and we do the breakfast club
on the hip hop station. So I just want to
I want some street credit. I just want to be cool.
So sometimes it's not a good thing to do. I'm
not doing it. I'm not doing it from I'm you know,
from a mean spirited place. It's just I try, and
I want to try. What I want to be a chameleon.
I want to be. But I want to be a
(04:08):
chameleon with things that you aren't. I want to put
some spec on that, real respect that you know what. No, no, no, no, Danielle,
he said respect. Want to put some respect on you know,
you can blend into something that which you are, Like
if you become more Brooklyn when you're around your Brooklyn friends,
but you cannot take on an identity then it's not yours.
(04:29):
It's not it's that's not okay, oh my gosh. Then
you know what happens when he leaves the room. They
make fun of him beyond what a jackat because you
just imagine the conversation that goes on when you leave that.
I'm going to see what happens when he goes into
a Chinese Chinese restaurant. How do you want to do that?
(04:50):
You can't pretend to be black when you're not black. No,
I'm not trying to pretend. No, no no, no, no no no.
I'm just trying to use use verbage, use use ms.
It's different. I'm not trying to I'm not trying to
emulate or mimic. I'm trying to there's a difference and
trying to use language that you might hear. So when
you go to Chucky Cheese, you walk around going, man,
(05:12):
that's lit, Wow, that's so late. Your dog and you
different to your friends you're coming down. But the no,
you can't compare going down to that station by talking
to your dog. If you hang out with gay people,
do you suddenly like act like you're into men when
my kids check out that guy's ask how am I right?
(05:33):
Am I right? You're saying you just try to use
different vocabulary, try to speak in a different way. Yes,
that's what I'm saying. Okay, gotcha. So you use different words,
but you don't speak in a different way. No, no, no, no, no,
no no. Please don't don't misconstrue what I'm saying. I try,
and you know, I you know, when I'm with my
friends from Brooklyn, I dumb it down a little bit.
(05:54):
When I'm with my friends from an I try and
be bros like you. And then and then when you're
TI one oh five, you try to. I try to
use words like you know, dropping it, you know, like
say hey on the d L. You know, I use
just like vocabulary like two thousand eight urban. No. God.
When my kids come home from school, they their new
word is everything savage. This is so savage. Mom, I'll
(06:18):
say that's lit. That's fine. That's on a day. I
don't go to my son Spencer, Hey, Spencers, that savage.
He's gonna look right through me and go Mom, you
don't don't talk like that. You don't feel like you
don't be a mora. You don't be like, hey, that's
my bob. No, I don't what that song is a bob?
Which was a bob? What the kids bop? Not kids bob?
If a song is hot, it's a bob, it's fire,
(06:38):
it's lit. My kids never say that. You don't get
to say that he's like his finger. You don't get
to wear like Pokemon shirts. You don't get to do
that trying to relate. You don't get the shop at
like Forever twenty one. You don't. You don't use a
f sentence. No, I mean I'm hired. There are some Yeah,
(07:03):
there are some things that just are natural to you
that you can like naturally segue into, like when I'm
home in Wisconsin, I naturally segue into that accent because
you're from right and if like you. But there are
certain things that it just shows that you're trying too
hard say if it's not if it doesn't come naturally
to you, and you have to learn the words in
(07:24):
the vocabulary. I don't think that are the people you're
hanging around. Don't say that stuff. So it doesn't come naturally.
Then you don't spect to worry about say that anything
gives you the feels. No, you don't do You don't
say adulting, you know, can we get rid of adulting?
Get rid of that phrase. I really hate that word adulting. Adults.
(07:45):
I just don't have to. You're not an adult. Thank you, Spencer.
If you say you savage, you're definitely not savage. I
don't know, I don't know. I don't mean to hurt
your feelings. I just don't want you to feel like
you have because you're good enough the way you are,
like you natural, scary, are just fine the way you are.
You don't have to try to take anything else on
an intervention. Sometimes I inadvertently pick up snapchat speak because
(08:12):
because when you see your news feeds, you see people
talking like that or writing writing on this, and what
do those people look like? I mean, those people are
talking about anybody whoever. Okay, But but if a fifteen
year old on Snapchat says year old. Okay, but if
somebody says that, then yeah, who sayings straight fire? Because
you shouldn't be saying that's straight fire? That song straight fire?
(08:34):
Yesterday I was tired and I'm like, I wrote sleepless
a f what's wrong with putting that on Snapchat? If
you're saying it like to be funny, it's fine, that's
exactly right, that's fine. Like if you're saying like, but
but you know, it's almost a mocker a mockery of it,
you know, Yeah, no, I see what you're saying. You've
done it before. I see what you're saying. I I
(08:57):
just don't want you to feel like you have to
try too hard. Like there's you know, if let's say
that you're out of the demographic for saying something, of course,
then if you're saying it like I roll, or if
you're saying it to be ironic, that's one thing. But
if you're saying it to like try to fit in
and seem like you're that, then you don't. I just
(09:18):
I just don't think you need to try that hard.
But if you're not, if that's not what you're doing,
then that's not what I don't want people to think that.
I'm just saying that this is you just kind of
gravitate towards those that behavior because you're in that that
that so he is trying to do it when he's
hanging out with those people, whoever those people are. It
(09:38):
comes across different. When you say, how about the way
you guys shop and the way you dress, I mean,
don't you dress younger than you are? I mean that
that's pretty much doing the same thing you're trying to
be something you're not. No. I try to dress what
makes me feel good and what makes me feel like myself,
like dress like how I am. We talked about this
on the show about six or seven years ago. We
were at an event and we were meeting like six people.
(09:59):
One of them was black in five of them are white,
and he said a load to all of them. And
when he said a load of the black man, he went,
my man, he did. We talked about on the air
he did, and you did the back path and he did, Yes,
you did. You did the lean in and you did
the back path with him, be like my man was up.
He did, there's no defense anymore. And we talked about
(10:19):
on the show, you can't defend them anymore. The island
and we're drifting. You know what. I did date a
guy who did that too. He was a white and
um he anytime any time we were anywhere and he
saw a person of color, if it was a black,
a black person, he would say so. And it was
so uncomfortable because it was like, that's not you never
(10:42):
say like that. That's so defensive, like image, like seeing
your priest and going up to you would be like hey,
so you know, it's it's me being from Wisconsin if
everyone's like hey, hey, and they came up to me
and they were like, oh hey, ridiculous. You know, the
(11:02):
entire time we've been talking in in referencing scary, all
I can think of is that movie Malibu's Most Wanted.
That's all I see. You're doing? What? What? What? Jamie Kennedy,
Jamie Kennedy. I love Jamie Kennedy. He's great, but that
happening the movie is he's a white guy with the
boom box. I mean, it's just watch He's like Eminem
but living in Malibu. It's like it's like when we
(11:24):
meet people who aren't from New York and they'll go, oh,
you want a cup of core feet? What's up New York?
You know how annoyed do get when someone tries to,
you know, do your accent and you're like, you don't
tell anything. You're doing, that's what you're doing. But I
do feel though if I was going to greet Charlemagne
from the breakfast cab, I wouldn't say so. I wouldn't
I would not say so, but I'd be like, hey man,
(11:46):
hey man, because that's because that's how we talked to guys. Ever,
are you saying that to Charlemagne because you think that's
how Charlemagne talks? Would you say that to any guy? Maybe?
Any guy? It's like because Charlot means a guy's guy
to me, it's like he's also also apparently is the
only black person you know, because it's the one that
(12:10):
I'm referencing because people listed on his podcast who Wants
because we get Charlotta Magne on the next podcast. I
want Scary to speak to him in street, but Charlemagne
doesn't talk to He's like, hy man, how are you
You're gonna say? What is he doing? Charlotte? He's down
(12:30):
for it. He's in a meeting right now. He said
he would come down, but he can't. Charlemagne just wrote
a book you don't even read, like busy building. Fortunately
that ch is the smartest, one of the smartest guys
I know. He is building. He's he's a mud He's okay,
so you said a little while ago, when you're around
your smart friends, you act smart. Charlomne's fucking brilliant. You
(12:52):
should at throwing around him. I'm just I'm just I'm
putting out what he's given me, you know, if he's
give me himself, he's being himself. Sec. How do you
say hi to me, to you, to me, hey, Bethany?
Because because okay, what's something? Man? Yo? What's up? Three
(13:21):
different ways of hello? Because you're three different styles of people.
There's nothing to do. Has nothing to do with raised
color age anything. How in a vacuum? Like, how would
you say hi? Just like in a vacuum because someone
I just met, Hello, nice to meet you. So that's you,
that's you. So you can say I can't give you hello,
nice to meet you the same way I'm going to
(13:41):
give that to me. But you can say that to
any Hello, Hi, good morning, Hi, good morning, hiod morning, Hi,
good morning, Charlemagne. Good okay, Charlotta, Hi, good morning Charlotte.
If Joe from the Rock the Rock Station was out
by the front desk standing next to Charlemagne, would you
say hi Joe Sharde, No, you wouldn't. I go to
(14:08):
Charlemagne this morning in the hallway and he's like hey hey,
