Today's daily Highlight from Elvis Duran in the Morning Show.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Here he comes our best friend, your best friend, Rob Shooter.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
Had a big announcement today. It's a big day.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
We have a big announcement. We got lots going on
with Rob. Isn't it funny when Rob walks into the room,
everything just turns to like rainbows and yeah, lollipops and
glitter everything.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
If you can't get Liz and Ellie call me.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
And she says the same about you.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
All right.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
So Rob, of course notughty, but nice. He's a part
of the Elvis Drean Morning Show podcast division.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
Boom, that's your announcement today.
Speaker 4 (00:45):
That's an announcement.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
I've been rolled into the Elvis division. And when I
say rolled in, I think I pushed my way in.
Actually it's the truth. So thank you for having me.
Now I'm part officially, after all these years and maybe
a decade of coming here, I'm officially now part of
the of the crew.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Truth be told. I mean, you were the original podcast
on our show around Us.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
You're the first one, one of the first ones.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
It was Garrett that said to do it, and I
thought he was ridiculous and I didn't even know what
one of these CASTI pods were. I decided to give
it a go, and to my surprise and delight, people
listen to it. And so now I'm successful. Now you
want me no, I'm so happy to be part of
this and it's a growing division. You have some great
(01:30):
people in the group. I feel like I'm at the Oscars,
and I want to say I like everybody that I've
been nominated with because this group is a bunch of
all stars.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
And then they play the music and take you off
the stage.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
They roll you off the stage. We have some more
announcements coming up for the division, and I can't do
it right now, but some some big names are coming
into a joint. Let's talk about Megan Markle. Let's talk
about the Royals watching Megan Markle's new TV show, what
they think about.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Yes, So, because of a silly accent, I have a
lot of sources within the Palace. So that place has
one hundred two hundred people working there, which is great
for people like me because they all gossip like gooses.
And so I know several people within the Palace and
they told me, despite the sort of official statement that
the Royals are too busy to watch Meghan's new show.
(02:25):
My sources tell me they are watching it like they
are watching it's the meanness here. I think some people
in the Palace would like her to fail. Some people
are still sort of rooting for a little bit, but
they can't turn away. And I was thinking about it,
like in my own family, my sisters that annoy me.
If they had their own TV show, I'd be the
first to watch.
Speaker 4 (02:46):
They're all watching.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
So within the palace we now know that the royal
family are tuning in again.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
If you're listening a lower.
Speaker 5 (02:51):
Level low, well, isn't it just like they say with radio.
Speaker 6 (02:54):
If you love someone, maybe you listen for twenty twenty
five minutes, but when you hate them, you listen to
the whole show.
Speaker 5 (02:59):
To find out what you hate the most.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
About magazines in the world that I'm from, in the
gossip world, love and hate are the only emotions that matter,
and hate is more powerful.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
I hate that everybody.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
I don't like that.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
But if you really don't like somebody, you're probably going
to click the story. If you love somebody, you will
click to Indifference is where you die, and nobody, including
everybody in this room, is indifferent.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
About Megan. We all have our opinions. I wish you well.
She's got pot two.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
So Royals, if you're listening Glow Charles and below that
you've got another eight episodes coming.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
So do they only have popcorn? And like why? And
they all gather around to watch.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
You know, it's not quite as glamorous as one thinks.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
I know that they live quite humbly within a palace,
but they have all these empty.
Speaker 5 (03:41):
Rooms, humbly in a palace, and they're stuck.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
In a corner.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
You know. There's famous stories about the Queen being quite frugal,
and during the winter, because it's a dusty old place,
it's quite cold, she had a space heater plugged in,
I know. And they love to eat dinner out of tupperware.
So I imagine them all around the little TV in
old fashion and TV, you know, not a new one,
not a flat screen, and they're watching Megan while eating
out of their tupper Were you watch The Crown, we
(04:07):
know how they live.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
I remember I was watching The Crown once and they
went to a shot of everyone in the kitchens at
Buckingham Palace preparing a meal, and they showed a little
mouse running around on one of the tables. I don't
know if you saw that.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
They've they're renovating in the palace right now. It's not
being renovated for like one hundred years, so it's not
quite as gladus as you might think. Meghan said that
when she married into the family and Oprah came to visit,
Oprah couldn't believe how they were living.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
They got it a good way, right, Wow, But there
you go.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
All right, let's move on.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
Rob.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Of course, Rob Shooter is here. Not a bit nice Rob,
And we have a list of incredible things you want
to cover. Let's talk about our mutual friend Wendy will
Is there a chance they can spring her out of
that joint and she can get a TV show again?
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Yeah, I think that's going to happen. So Wendy has
been doing some appearances. Yesterday she was on with our
friend Rosanna Scato.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
She'll be on the view or doing a.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
View on frid And so I'm told Wendy has a
really good chance now of ending this conservatorship. What's going
to really help her is yesterday she took a mental
health test, a cognitive test, and she passed with flying colors.
So I think Wendy's in a good place. Anybody that
has spoken to Wendy, including Rosannah, will say she's back.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
So she's back.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Why do you think this was happening.
Speaker 7 (05:19):
We're hearing rumors that she has no money left, so
why would these people be controlling her.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
They're not going to get anything out of it.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
If she had no money left, they wouldn't be paying
eighteen thousand dollars a month to keep her in this facility.
Wendy's pay to be in this facility. And also too,
let's be honest here, and we know this from Britney Spears.
A conservator does get an income and that's legal. They're
not stealing if you're a conservator what you can build
for your services. So the conservators making money this fabulous
(05:47):
hotel slash building that she's staying in it tower money.
But it was so encouraging yesterday because I'm team Wendy
or all the way. Yeah, I had several different producers
from big networks call me saying there's already a bidding war.
They want Wendy back if she can do it. Maybe
we're being a little bit Mam truer now, but can
you imagine Wendy that amazing.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
It would be amazing, but you know, in a guarded way.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
Yeah, and that's her the happiest. All the times I've
gone out with Wendy dancing or out on a night,
she's happier when the cameras are on. Wendy at her
best was an hour at ten o'clock every morning on
that show.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
That throt that.
Speaker 4 (06:26):
Yeah, absolutely Wendy could be back.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
So you know, yesterday Daniel was reporting how Jennifer Garner's
boyfriend husband it was pissed off because she's taking all
these cuddly photos with Ben Fleck.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
I was listening, nodded away on that tread.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
What's going on with them? And what's going on with them?
Speaker 4 (06:45):
Ben? I think would like to get that.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
Maybe with Jennifer Garner, he's the rebound guy, is JL
like he's the rebanded guy. However, I hit the phones
and my my Jennifer gone. You have to be careful.
So there's two Jennifer's. My sources are saying she ain't
getting back. She knows who he is, she loves him.
He'll always be part of the family that have those
beautiful children together. And she's a good person. She doesn't
(07:07):
want to just abandon someone.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
But she also not stupid.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
She knows, she knows who Bid is and she wishes
him the best and she will always be there to
help him. But he's not coming back. And let's be clear,
she has a really cute boyfriend that he's out of
the spotlight, and I think she likes that too. So
Ben's almost that ex that you just can't streak off.
Speaker 7 (07:30):
But she seems to me like she's the girl next door.
Like she doesn't like all the Belgian whistles she likes.
She's rather be without makeup, you know, unless she has
to be glamorized for something. But she's just even with
her cooking show, her fake cooking show that she did.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
She's just the girl you want to be friends with.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
She's the greatest. She's the greatest.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
And she doesn't go to red carpet events that are
not her movies or her premierees. She's not out at
Noble all these fancy sort of celebrity restaurants, the Ivy.
She lives a really lovely life, and unfortunately for her,
the father of her children happens to Ben Affleck, who
does enjoying a little bit of attention. I think we
can all all agree here, but they're not back together.
You're going to hear these stories for weeks. I promise you.
(08:10):
Your best friend Rob told you they are not back together.
Speaker 4 (08:14):
It's not happening, Okay.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
They say that ever since he is a single guy,
he's actually happier than ever.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
How much I think is a bit of a dig
to j Low, Like when you move on, if you
get divorced and suddenly you're happier than you've been in
yours that's not the nicest thing to sort of say.
Speaker 7 (08:28):
I was sad, though, Were you not sad? Because I
thought like that was the fairy tale? Like she had
pined for him for so long and they finally found
each other again, and it just, I mean, it didn't
last long at all, did it.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
When I when I worked with Jlo, they broke up
for the first time. I wrote their breakup statement that
was issued to the press, and she was heartbroken. He
really was the love of her life. But sometimes love's
not enough, like they've got to be compatible, and Jennifer
and then were not compatible. But I think her heart's
probably still broke. And I'm sure these photographs with his
ex wife Jennifer Gardner are not not fun to watch here.
(09:01):
But don't worry about Jlo. She's going to be just fine.
I'm told she's getting ready to maybe even go back
out on the road and do the big Greatest Hits
type tour, which she canceled about a year ago, playing
maybe smaller venues, but I'd love to see j Loo
back alan stage.
Speaker 6 (09:15):
Interesting.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Oh, go ahead, and Guandy, do.
Speaker 6 (09:19):
You have any idea what it was that broke the
two of them up, because there have been so many rumors,
especially with all this stuff coming out about former boyfriends
of hers, any inside info on that.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
I think it's very difficult for two people who are
that successful and that alpha to sort of be compatible.
Relationships are really hard. Can you imagine being married to
one of the biggest stars in the world, which they
both were. They both are superstars. I also think too,
that Jennifer probably didn't read the room, and the bend
that she wanted was not quite the reality. And he
(09:50):
is who he is, and he's been honest about his struggles,
and you want to support people and be kind, but
it's difficult. It's really difficult. So I would imagine, and
let's be clear, too, it's hard being mister j Low,
which every person's going to be a rod, every person
that she needs. I don't think I can think of
another celebrity that maybe is as big as her, who's
(10:11):
bigger than Jayla, maybe Beyonce or Taylor's with but it's
not I can't think for male celebrity, and so I
think it must be very difficult for Ben, who certainly
is an alpha male, to be in the shadow of
somebody as big as Jennifer.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
I want her to find love.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
I love her, but I do know too here she
does get a lot of love out of her career.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Like that is very important because when you're going to
be dating or married to someone who is in love
with their career, you have to understand that going in, I.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
Say, it's my ba Frey day.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
Bruce has learned how to live with it. All right,
Let's talk about who's going to play the new double
or seven. If it's who you think it is, I
am going to it'll be a like watching a porn
from me.
Speaker 5 (10:56):
Oh, which is.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Really what Double O Seven's about. Said, Yeah, it's very ironic.
Who you get Daniel Craig walking down of the ocean
in those tight, little little swimming shorts. And so I'm
told that that now it's been sold. So the franchise
now has a new owner. Jeff Bezos now owns.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
And you see what happened. He got Barbara Broccoli kicked out.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
He did get what he paid, but he got a
kicked out for six billion dollars. So Barbara's doing So
Barbara sold Barbara Broccoli. The Broccoli family was in charge
of bonds for the last sixty years since the beginning
of the movies, and now that has been sold to
Jeff Bezos. They're looking around. There's a couple of criteria.
One they would like him to be British. James Hard
is a British agent after all. They want them to
(11:37):
be in about their forties because they hope when you
sign on they've got a good ten years out of you.
They don't want to keep changing bonds, and so they're
thinking ten years in advance. If you're forty now, by
the time you retire, you'll be fifty, you could probably
still be an agent. And the name that I keep
hearing over and over and over again, say it THEO James.
Speaker 6 (11:58):
Oh yeah, wow, And it's perfect.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
It's perfect because he's forty years old, and so he
has a good ten yures left.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
I was gonna say, Elvis Da Ran, you would be
a great Double O seven.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
Okay, look, I love the old James. I can't wait
till this segment that the second run of Gentleman comes.
Speaker 4 (12:23):
That's a good show.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Oh yeah, so good.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Because he's so hard on it. But I still think
they should consider someone of color to play Double O.
Seve A guy thinks.
Speaker 4 (12:33):
So a good idea. I think so too. I even
thought I would like to.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
See a Jame Bond, I think, But I do think
whenever Jeff Bezos has brought a franchise like Lord of
the Ring, we will see a lot of spin offs.
And so the way that he's gonna make his eight
billion dollars back is not by releasing one movie every
three years. We're gonna have the backstory. We're gonna have
the backstory of the villains. We're gonna know how mister
(12:58):
Goldfinger became mister gold Fingers.
Speaker 7 (13:00):
That's why he said he bought it because he wants
to do spin offs and he wants to control.
Speaker 5 (13:05):
Cast himself as a super villain.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Is about girl, Well, he should always have a cat with.
Speaker 6 (13:14):
Him looks like he is turning into Dodger's crazy.
Speaker 4 (13:19):
So yes, if you're listening, we're all for it here
thumbs up up.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
All right, give us a blind item because, by the way,
blind items are my favorite, because well, it's going to
be a rumor about someone. But he can't say who
it is because he doesn't want to get his ass
suit off, so than you, they won't sue us for
saying it.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
That's right.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
You could say whoever you can get.
Speaker 5 (13:38):
Okay, guess So, which big.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
TV star with a very wholesome image is behind the
scenes a little less wholesome and he's having an affair
with somebody on his staff. Now we should say he's single.
So when I stay affair, it's really an undercover relationship
with the dating. That's very tricky if you if you're
listening and you're dating somebody that you work with. I'm
looking at you, Gandie. It's a little bit tricky, isn't it,
(14:03):
with human resources and everything. So very very straight laced
TV anchor maybe in the evening.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
But wait a saying he also says he has a
signature catchphrase.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
He does have the signature catch phrase.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
He does so he says the same thing good night
every night.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
The end will start the show in the same may,
which is not that unusual. Who is it?
Speaker 3 (14:28):
Who is a big TV star who's having Ryan Seacrest?
I would never dare do that in the house of
iHeart podcast thicker that.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
I got in with Ryan.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
All Right, we're gonna think this through.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Go ahead, I have one more question before we go.
But go ahead.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Well, we've got to figure out who this is.
Speaker 5 (14:55):
Yeah, I'm gonna start.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
I have no idea.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
All right, we're gonna get back to you on that.
We're gonna think about that. I watch your question.
Speaker 7 (14:59):
I I want to know if the rumors are true.
A Mall and George Clooney are they on the rock?
Speaker 3 (15:04):
No, they're so in love. I actually saw them a
few nights ago. They were having dinner in New York.
So George has moved to New York to start this play.
Is doing a play at the Winter Garden Theater. It's
selling out, so if you want to get a ticket,
get one now. Unfortunately, I think the price is about
six or seven hundred dollars a ticket. George is going
to end up being the highest paid Broadway star of
(15:26):
all time.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
That's cool. I would love to see him on story. Wait, Holmus,
you can buy the tickets, Olvi this I'll go with you. Well, okay,
thank you very much. And they are a little bit expensed.
But George is in New York with a mill with
the kids. They are so so happy. Everything that I've
seen about them or heard about them, they're They're the
real deal. And he took a long time to settle down.
(15:48):
So no, and I'm glad that that story. George, although
he did dye his hair, is no longer a silver
fox for the play. It looks like just for men,
he's gone a little bit brown, just for me.
Speaker 5 (16:02):
Just so back to this news anchor.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
Hmm.
Speaker 6 (16:06):
They start or finished with the same phrase every night,
so that would probably be a nightly.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
News type thing, do you think.
Speaker 6 (16:14):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (16:15):
I don't know if they're single or not, but I
would like Lester Holt.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
Oh Marrit not Leicester. But it's a good, good, good
guest David ABC. I would not know, I would.
Speaker 5 (16:25):
Okay, Okay, so not I think guessing.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
We love your blind items. We love not e but
nice Rob and of course now a member of the
Elvis Durant Podcast division.
Speaker 4 (16:43):
Be so rich. Elvis, thank you.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Let me know what that money starts parted. Can we
play this theme song? Oh yeah, let's play the very
metal theme song for Not Nice Rob Shooter
