Speaker 1 (00:01):
Today's Daily Highlight from Elvis Duran in the Morning Show.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
So what what I.

Speaker 3 (00:05):
Heard something going on there in the background? I heard,
Did you guys hear what Nate said to Scary? I'm
I'm just being honest, I know, but I just don't.
You know that you're on shaky ground when a friend
like Nate comes up to you and says, scary as
your friend.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
Dot dot.

Speaker 3 (00:28):
You know there's some advice coming there that you probably
need to hear, but you don't want to hear it.

Speaker 1 (00:32):
The backstory is, yeah, I lost thirty pounds and I
did a great job of it, everyone said.

Speaker 4 (00:38):
And now I.

Speaker 1 (00:39):
Started eating Rice Christy treats because the box came in.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
Can I Well, we were sitting in this in this
zoom room.

Speaker 5 (00:45):
I see Scary get up and walk away, and then
all of a sudden, I hear Nate go, Scary as
your friend.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
They might want to slow down a little bit. Well,
let me just say Scary.

Speaker 4 (00:57):
Heary walked out of the studio and I know when
he walked out he's going for food because that's just
what he does. So walking out and he says, yeah,
this shirt, this shirt, Oh man, I'm telling you second
quarter scary is now third quarter scary in a second
quarter scary shirt. I'm like, okay, so this shirt looks
a little tight, and he's what he's saying this as

(01:19):
he's walking towards the rice Krispy treats. So I just thought,
like, I do that, dude, scary as your friend, you really
got to rein it in because he's already complaining that
his third quarter body is in second quarter.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
I'm out pacing.

Speaker 4 (01:32):
Yeah, this is not good, you know.

Speaker 5 (01:34):
Yeah, my wife does that.

Speaker 2 (01:36):
The other day.

Speaker 5 (01:36):
She said, oh, these pants are a little tired than
they used to be, and in the very next breath, hey,
do you want to go get some pizza? I'm like,
wait a second. The fact that those pants are a
little tighter than they used to be mighty because we've
been eating too much pizza. Maybe that's why it doesn't
mean she wants to stop eating the pizza.

Speaker 3 (01:50):
So, but when you hear someone say as your friend,
you're like, oh, you know, there was no way to
say what I was about to say without giving I'm
sort of a disclaimer, right because what I was gonna
say was gonna be kind of.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
Or you could just not say it.

Speaker 3 (02:05):
No, no, I'm not saying you shouldn't say it.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
I don't know so scary.

Speaker 3 (02:10):
This was an interaction between the two of you really
has nothing to do with us other than we witnessed it.
How did you feel when he said, as your friend,
you really should put down the friggin Rice Crispy treat really.

Speaker 1 (02:20):
Well, because because I felt well, I felt that this
was a friend trying to talk to me and be like, look,
I'm gonna be real with you, dude, you're going a
little You're going out for Rice Chrispy treats a little
too often, and you may you may gain all this
weight back sooner than you know. So so to me,
it triggers Ah, he's he's my friend telling me, so

(02:41):
he's framing it that way. Now, he just would have
just said, dude, lay off the Krispy treats, then I
might I might have had a different reaction, but but
he kind of like softened the blow by prefacing it
with as your friend, here's.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
Here's one thing that could happen.

Speaker 3 (02:57):
One thing that could happen would be h he will
continue to eat rice grispy trees, but in private when
you're not watching. And then he's gonna start hiding wrappers
in the trash can so you can't see them.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (03:09):
So you never know how someone's going to respond to
either being a friend or you know, food shaming them.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
So there's that what Froggy.

Speaker 5 (03:19):
I think that maybe Nate should not have done it
in front of all of us, Like maybe he should
have leaned over and whispered or not not in the
my like Nate not gone in front of us, it
would have probably been a little better.

Speaker 3 (03:30):
Wow, that totally changes everything, Froggy's right now, had you
just gone up to Scary and private said hey, as
your friend, you really know no, no, you really should
lay off the rice.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
Okay, but you did it in front of all of us.
I look into a microphonead it too the zoom camera.

Speaker 4 (03:48):
I look at this zoom room as like an empty
room in a rec center with a circle of chairs
where you do an intervention. I feel like you guys
should have been like, yeah, scary, I see more often
than not, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (04:02):
We look at this as a wrec center with a
circle of and this is not an AA meaning you know.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
I was like, I appreciate that, but your your heads up,
you guys, just okay.

Speaker 4 (04:11):
I'm telling you you're blowing it now because this was
the intervention I hope I think we could.

Speaker 2 (04:17):
No, No, you blew it out of the shoot. You
can't sit here and tell us we blew something now.
He's just the Krispy Trees.

Speaker 4 (04:23):
I'm telling you.

Speaker 2 (04:24):
He's gonnake them happy, let him go, and he's gonna
hide them from you. I don't know. I'm with you, Elvis, though.

Speaker 6 (04:30):
I feel like in the history of as your friend,
a friendly statement never follows that. It's always something super
unfriendly that's horrible that you need to talk to you about.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
So it's like you know that your turn.

Speaker 6 (04:41):
Sandwich is on the way.

Speaker 2 (04:42):
As soon as they said it, I was like, what's
you about to say?

Speaker 3 (04:44):
It's almost the same as saying, hey, I don't mean
to be offensive, but.

Speaker 6 (04:50):
Insert offensive statement there.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
You're about to be offensive.

Speaker 4 (04:54):
I don't know. Maybe I'm different. I mean, if I'm
doing and you guys do this to me all the time,
that if I'm doing something that is stupid or I'm
hurting myself in some way by eating food or whatever,
if you give me the as your friend, I appreciate it.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
Well, maybe off to the side in private.

Speaker 3 (05:10):
Okay, okay, so do you have music? Scary, we need
music for this this next segment.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
Okay, hold on.

Speaker 3 (05:17):
I think Nate feels as if he has licensed to
say whatever he wants. He frames it in a way
where he thinks he's helping. Okay, right, it's now time
for as your Friend starring Nate.

Speaker 7 (05:31):
You got Froggy and Danielle and Gandhi and me to
be our friend, and you must start each extremely slicing, dicing,
insulting line with as your friend.

Speaker 8 (05:44):
God, yes, I want to hear this. They're doing it
in front of everyone, ten million people.

Speaker 3 (05:55):
Ten million people will now hear us as we are
in the rec center in a circle.

Speaker 3 (08:20):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (08:21):
Okay, honestly, you're not telling me anything. I don't.

Speaker 4 (08:24):
I mean, I could be a little bit more blunt
with that statement.

Speaker 2 (08:27):
We just got to that. How can you be more
bought with that?

Speaker 4 (08:30):
You really need to work out more.

Speaker 2 (08:32):

You are an.

Speaker 3 (08:55):
Even though you know everything you said to us came
from a place of care, and you know I get that,
but you know you're an a hole.

Speaker 4 (09:05):
Okay. Well, when I had those strokes, I think I
lost a little piece of my brain. That kind of
keeps you from saying.

Speaker 2 (09:10):
Oh no, no, no, no, don't blame that stroke. I don't.

Speaker 3 (09:14):
I can't squelch rudeness because of my stroke. That doesn't

It's, you know, not the easiest thing in the world to.

Speaker 2 (09:37):
Do, scary.

Speaker 3 (09:37):
Do you know that you need to stop eating so
many rice otherwise I'm going to gain the thirty pounds,
right Froggy? Do you know and you may have reasons
to wear your hair your hat backwards, but you know
it does have kind of a bro thing.

Speaker 5 (09:48):
Going, yeah, that's okay, I don't mind, It's okay. I
have reasons that if I and if I told you

Speaker 2 (09:54):
So I'm just not even to brain surgery.

Speaker 3 (09:57):
I know, I know he had an aneurysm in brain surgery,
so he's trying to put all that on.

Speaker 5 (10:04):
If you must know, Nate, there's a screw from the
brain surgery. That's right where the bill of the hat
hits my head and it hurts like hel so I
turned it around back.

you for being an a hole.

Speaker 4 (10:25):
All right, it's an intervention. I hope you guys took
a No, no one asked for an intervention. We just
asked for you to finish the sentence. What's scary?

Speaker 1 (10:33):
People are texting in that this is like the uncomfortable
dinner party with a spotlight on one person. So one
person stands up and insults everybody roasting us.

Speaker 3 (10:45):
Hey, you know what I could sit here and say
to myself a Elvis, as your friend, I have a
list of things that you know. But I think it
depends on where you hear it and who says it.
And you know, and but Nate always has that laugh
before he says it. He'll go, here's you know, as
your friend, you're a drunk. Okay, well thanks.

Speaker 6 (11:08):
Except when he came to you you could hear his
balls getting sucked up into his body.

Speaker 2 (11:12):
He was so scared.

Speaker 4 (11:15):
I mean, I didn't really say what I wanted to
say about Daniel.

Speaker 3 (11:24):
That is the biggest chicken crap thing you could ever say.

Speaker 4 (11:29):
Do you want me to say it?

Speaker 6 (11:30):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (11:30):
I do.

Speaker 4 (11:31):

a little bit better equipment. You're always having problems.

Speaker 6 (11:36):
There.

Speaker 2 (11:38):
You paid for this equipment.

Speaker 4 (11:41):

his little studio there.
