Today's Daily Highlight from Elvis Duran in the morning show You.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
I realized yesterday. I got back into town on Saturday,
and I didn't leave the house till Tuesday. Didn't leave
the house. Wow, that sounds they stated it was. It
was great. I left for a birthday party, came home
on Tuesday night, and I haven't left since then. I
don't think i've ever le No, I'm no, we're having
(00:26):
lunch today. I'm gonna leave the house.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
You have to leave today.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
I'm gonna leave the house to come see you my
family for lunch. Then I'm running back to the house
and locking the door. I'm pulling up the drawbridge. The
alligators in the moat will keep me safe. You've been
coming to shut in, Elvis. I think I am. I
mean when I was a kid and I got sent
to my room, I loved it because I had a
lot of cool stuff in my room.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
I was hooked up, man. I had a tarry pong.
I had everything.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
Know, Now, did you have to take everything? You have
to unplug everything? Give me the phone, the iPad, the computer,
the this.
Speaker 4 (01:02):
You make them go play outside.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Hi, exactly, you will suffer. But you know I got
my dogs. You know, I'm out here in the country
just kind of hanging out. I'm but then I'm starting
to evaluate it, like, hmm, should you be thinking this through?
Why are you shutting down like this? Huh? I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
Maybe you just need a break. Sometimes you just need
a break.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Well maybe, And I'm loving it. It's okay to stay home, hey,
but whilst staying home you tend to fall down these
rabbit holes or whatever they are. And uh online and
Gandhi sent this, she sent this lake to me and
I'm fascinated with it too. Tell everyone what it is
(01:44):
because I cannot get enough of it, and others like it.
Speaker 4 (01:47):
It's inmates in prison looking for pen pals.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Oh my god.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
They have like little bios on Instagram where somebody films
them and they talk about the things they like and
how you can reach them. And none of the first
all all these people are about to get out of
jail they say, or prison, I should say. Some have
been in for a long time. Some didn't do it,
a lot didn't do it. But it's just it's fascinating
to watch these little these guys sit there and talk
(02:13):
about what they're into and what they're looking for.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Does he say?
Speaker 1 (02:15):
What?
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Do they say what they're in for?
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Some do okay, some don't them do some don't. Oh yeah,
So this started. We were looking at the Idaho inmates.
But then you you there's there They're there are these
this these pin pot Pal accounts for every state, every prison.
And look, I was questioned, like, why does someone fall
in love with one of the Meninda's brothers, right, and
(02:40):
how and how and they get married to them?
Speaker 1 (02:42):
What?
Speaker 2 (02:42):
I didn't one of the menindez brothers marry someone like
who became in? She became infatuated with him? Maybe maybe
I know you're in vander Slut did right? Yeah, vander
Slute all these murderers. Yeah. Anyway, So so I was
dumb it through the Idaho ones and there's this one
guy and I'm like, oh my god, he's really attractive.
(03:05):
I thought it was Anthony. No, it wasn't. Anthony was
different one. Anthony's good. You want to play Anthony, can't
play him. I think he's clean. This is Anthony. It
wasn't Anthony interested.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
Anthony.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
I like getting tattoos, playing ky knuckle uh long, walks
on the reck yard and Kennily spreads with the homies,
and then he.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
Throws up a gang sign.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
And there wasn't Anthony, not at all.
Speaker 4 (03:32):
Was it the guy singing?
Speaker 2 (03:34):
I don't oh he who does he say? Yeah? No,
it wasn't him, but let's hear him. He sent us
to us.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
You tell me the other things you want to do.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
I heard that you were left up bad guys.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Is that true?
Speaker 1 (03:51):
It's better than I ever even knew.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Yeah. So you know, look, when you're in prison, you
have lots of time, nothing but time. You know, it's
a whole other It's a whole other universe in there right,
its own rules, its own government, its own agenda, it's everything.
So yeah, but I just found them fascinating because they're
just reaching out. They just want to talk to someone
(04:16):
that's not in the in the house right. Oh for sure,
that's what they said.
Speaker 4 (04:19):
I just want someone to talk to you, and I want friends,
the ones that are getting out soon or looking for
someone to date and you know, start their life over.
I was when I first saw the page, I was like,
what the hell is this? Oh my god, two hundred
and twenty thousand followers.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
This is wild.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
I know, forty two profiles in I was like, Okay,
I get it.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
I'm part of the place.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Do you think somebody just in case?
Speaker 4 (04:38):
No, No, I'm not a pen pal type.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
But I don't know. I think I may strike up
a relationship with someone in prison.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
Okay, why not? You just got to pick someone that's
going to be there for a long time.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
Well, that's the thing, you know. Yeah, it always said,
you know, if you're gonna get married, marry someone in prison,
that's their long term maybe on death row, never coming out.
I don't know. But what I'm saying is you always
know where they are at night. You always know where
they are. You always know that they're there. They're getting
three squares a day. You know they're good, you're getting exercise.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
You don't always know what they're doing in there.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
Oh you know what they're doing better. I'm never gonna
see them anyway. I'll go see them on visitation days.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
Through the glass.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Any day I'm gonna have a concent Do they do
that still?
Speaker 4 (05:19):
They really let you do that.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
They let them have sex in them, and they let
them have sex in the mobile home behind the whole
That's crazy. You're exactly with someone out from outside press
any Randy Online nineteen seeing your channel nine nine nine.
I believe in Dayton, Ohio. Hey Randy, how you doing?
Speaker 1 (05:39):
I'm good?
Speaker 2 (05:39):
How are you doing well? So your aunt had an
intimate pin pal thing with someone in prison. Look, I
need to talk to your aunt and get some tips.
Go ahead.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
She heard about the inmate thing and wanted to do
PayPal or pin pal in mates and asked her husband,
and her husband said no, I don't want to do it,
but you can go ahead and do it. And she
started talking to six people. Then the six turn into five,
and then the five turn into four, then just turn
into one, and then she ended up being romantic or
having romantic feelings for him, so ended up divorcing her
(06:14):
husband and marrying the man in jail.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Is he still in prison? Is her husband in prison?
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Okay, what did you do? Well? Yeah, what did he do?
What's he in? Form?
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Abusive A corpse?
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Yeah all right, well okay, so he has many layers,
all right? But interesting how she like she had six
guys she was talking to. Then it ended that she
whittled it down to one. It's like American Idol. Yeah,
and then one actually, uh you know, gets the prize.
Abusive A corpse. Well anyway, so did I mean, I'm
(06:58):
sure the family's talking about it, like whoa, Okay, so
your aunt is I mean, I mean, is everyone happy
for her? Or is it kind of an oddity?
Speaker 1 (07:07):
This happened a couple of years ago, so I think
I feel like everybody's used to it now. He calls
her a couple times a day and she still comes
to family functions and stuff, so it's just like a thing.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
I'm sure her husband was real happy that he told her,
go ahead, you do do it.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Yeah, I still live together. Actually what oh wow, oh
my god? This is this should be a TV show.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Is a show, but they're not together, but they live together,
and then she's with this other guy.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Correct, Okay, all right, does she does she go visit
the guy and her husband in prison? She does?
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Is he getting out anytime soon?
Speaker 1 (07:43):
He has a parole? I think it's twenty twenty five,
but his past parole hearings they've all been declined, so
I don't think. So he's been in there since he
was sixteen and he's forty eight now I believe.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
Oh, why gosh, she's a yeah, okay, well, interesting story.
I would say, you know, if he gets out locked
the morgue, don't let him near it.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
I'm confused though, like why, like, if you know you're
never ever going to see the guy, then why does
she even have to tell her husband? Why didn't she
just keep both?
Speaker 2 (08:17):
She's in love? She's in love, Danielle, Okay, I didn't know.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Well, thank you so much, Randy. You know what interesting fascinating?
I find it fascinating. A right, Randy, Thank you so much.
I don't know. Here's the thing. If you're married to
someone and you love the reason that you love the
facts that they're locked up for life because you never
have to, like really truly like commit physically, what if
(08:44):
they escape? Oh god, he's coming home plot twist.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
I mean he could get parol this time. Then then
what is she going to do come on home on me?
Speaker 2 (08:54):
I don't know. At least she has her ex husband
in the house to keep her safe. I guess. It's
the strangest story I've ever heard.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
I'm sure he didn't do it.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
None of them did it, that's right. They all say
they're all innocent.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
Well, okay, anyway, thank you for sending me that link.
