Today's Daily Highlight from Elvis Duran. In the Morning show yesterday,
we put my.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
Husband Alex on talking about how I'm kind of fed
up living a life of not having Christmas.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
Trees right because and I thought about it all day.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
He and I look at decorating for Christmas from different
points of view. To him, it's not that important for
whatever is. I love having a Christmas tree. It's awesome.

Speaker 3 (00:25):
Yea.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
So now we're having the same thing about Thanksgiving. Why
it's just he said, I don't know. I could just
stay home and have a turkey sandwich. I said, what
are you talking about? You would call him real quick, Yes, seriously,
I said, Well, I said I would like to cook.
And he looked at me and said, well, you know
what's happened in the past when you decided to cook

(00:47):
for everyone?

Speaker 4 (00:48):
What's happened?

Speaker 1 (00:49):
And you got a big grin on his face. Let's
find out.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
Yeah, if he picks up, apparently there's been some problem.
I said, Well, then let's go to a restaurant, let
them do the cooking for us.

Speaker 1 (00:59):
Well, okay, that's.

Speaker 4 (01:01):
What I think. We're just going to bring it in.

Speaker 2 (01:03):
Oh, here he comes here, he comes, all right, Hi
sorry to bother you.

Speaker 1 (01:09):
I know you're busy. I that's the that's the I'm busy.
Sound okay, real quick.

Speaker 2 (01:15):
Remember the other day we're talking about how you and
I just don't see eye to eye on about the
importance of having.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
A Christmas tree.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
Yes, okay, now I'm talking on the show about how
you and I don't see eye to eye about the
importance of Thanksgiving.

Speaker 5 (01:30):
We can celebrate it any day, we don't have to
do it.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
On that day. No Thanksgiving works.

Speaker 4 (01:37):
That's the day it is.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
That's the day it is. You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 5 (01:41):
Everything is so crowded. We can't get a reservation.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
You said, I just go home and have a turkey sandwich.

Speaker 5 (01:51):
Yes, I don't have a problem with that.

Speaker 2 (01:53):
Well, I Dosgiving with you. But wait a minute, I
want to get to the bottom of something you said
to me. I said, I have an idea to make
it easy. Why don't we just cook at home and
I'll cook Thanksgiving? And you said, well, you know how
that's worked out. What did you mean by that?

Speaker 5 (02:09):
Well, a couple of times that we have hosted, you
burnt the turkey, you dropped the turkey.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
You we were.

Speaker 5 (02:17):
Supposed to eat at seven o'clock. It was eleven thirty
at night, and nobody.

Speaker 3 (02:21):
Ate And.

Speaker 5 (02:23):
So I know how that goes.

Speaker 1 (02:26):
But what if what if I just tried.

Speaker 3 (02:27):
A lot of work for you, and it's a lot
of work. I don't want to see you get stressed out.

Speaker 1 (02:32):
You're looking out for me, you're looking.

Speaker 4 (02:35):
Yeah, right, what if you just ordered from like Ama
or something. I mean that you love that place.

Speaker 5 (02:41):
Well, we've tried that as well. All right, we've world
food got burnt.

Speaker 2 (02:49):
And yeah, because you don't get it that day, you
have to get it the day before. So you and well,
you know, here's the problem. We start drinking, and that's it.
That's why I dropped turkey that year. But a drop
turkey still work. I dropped the turkey where on the floor.

Speaker 5 (03:06):
What do you mean?

Speaker 4 (03:07):
Do you still eat it?

Speaker 3 (03:07):
Now?

Speaker 1 (03:08):
Yes, of course it was fine.

Speaker 4 (03:09):
It was fine.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
I just don't eat the part that fell. It's fine. Yeah,
And then yeah, that's what it is.

Speaker 2 (03:15):
We we you know, had as we all fest and
we start drinking champagne and then you know, things start burning.
So I just wish you understood the importance of Thanksgiving
to me.

Speaker 5 (03:28):
Okay, my gosh, By the way.

Speaker 4 (03:31):
All I can think of right now is the carousel
of Progress in World Disney World, because there's that one
scene where the guy burns the turkey and the little
alarms go up the turkey's burning.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
We are living in our own carousel of progress, I think,
so real quick. I know you have to go, But
what's that name?

Speaker 6 (03:45):
I see?

Speaker 7 (03:46):
I'm kind of signed with, Alex. Thanksgiving to me, at
least on the first part. Thanksgiving is a state of mind.
It can be Thanksgiving tomorrow if I choose no, I
can't Thanksgiving.

Speaker 6 (03:56):
I can't.

Speaker 7 (03:56):
I know what you're saying, Alex. Let's just do a
day when we feel like doing things Thanksgiving. We don't
have to do it on the third Thursday or fourth.
That's that's when we're off. What's scary.

Speaker 6 (04:06):
This makes me so sad because there are certain time
honor traditions like Thanksgiving that should be honored. And you're
going to be sad one day when everyone's gone and
you're old and gray.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
That's right, and that there are there will be any
Thanksgiving because you already know you're losing me to dementia
as it is.

Speaker 8 (04:24):
Oh God, I did I don't remember.

Speaker 2 (04:29):
Doing that froggy, Is it, Froggy?

Speaker 1 (04:33):
What are you think about this Thanksgiving thing? Am I
right about?

Speaker 8 (04:36):
No, you're right. Thanksgiving is the day that it is.
It has a feeling when you wake up in the morning,
you watch the parade turn and all on. It's a field.
That day has a different field than any other day
of the year. Alex has to get back to work.
I know you're busy, but I just want to say, what, Well.

Speaker 3 (04:53):
No, if we can find a reservation somewhere, because if
we tried booking a couple of restaurants and everything's already
sold out, And.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
Yeah, I called the ryland in the lady laughed at me.
She said, you're right, we've been sold out his last Thanksgiving? Well, well,
oh yeah, well we'll figure it out, all right. I
just wish you'd let me cook this year.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
Hello, Okay, we'll go out to eat. I love you,
have a great day. Love you by Oh my gosh,
I got nowhere there. But do you see what I'm saying?

Speaker 2 (05:26):
Yeah, the bottom line here, as in a Christmas tree,
as in Thanksgiving. He and I don't put the same
value on those days.

Speaker 4 (05:33):
I feel like you have to come to a compromise
of something looks like I am.

Speaker 1 (05:37):
Now, aren't they No, But.

Speaker 4 (05:38):
He's not compromising enough on his end.

Speaker 1 (05:41):
He never does I don't think he does what Nate?

Speaker 5 (05:45):
Nate?

Speaker 1 (05:45):
And how dare you side with him?

Speaker 5 (05:47):
Well?

Speaker 7 (05:47):
I kind of saw his point because you know, think
that that day rolls around, do you really want to cook?

Speaker 1 (05:53):
It's your day off? I enjoy it.

Speaker 4 (05:55):
Actually, I understand if you're if you can't be with
the people you love on that day for red it's
and then you have to travel or blah blah and
friends giving whatever you do, and then you celebrate it on.

Speaker 6 (06:05):
Another day period in time in my twenties where I'm like,
screwed Thanksgiving in Eastern I'm not going to be held
for Christmas. And you know something now later in life
here I am fifty one. I look, I make sure
that I go to every single family event because it
makes more sense and it's more important these days.

Speaker 4 (06:24):
And you lost your mom, and you know what I like,
after you lose a parent, these things become more important.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
You're fifty one, Yeah, okay, all the recipes need to
be counting.

Speaker 6 (06:33):
You're sure you're not like sixty two.

Speaker 5 (06:37):
You know what I'm saying?

Speaker 2 (06:38):
You should probably not say you're fifty one?

Speaker 3 (06:40):
About what.

Speaker 8 (06:44):
I look a here we go.

Speaker 1 (06:46):
You look fabulous, so good, Froggie. What are you doing
for Thanksgiving?

Speaker 3 (06:50):
Oh?

Speaker 8 (06:50):
We always we have Thanksgiving dinner at my house.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
Exactly there. I love it, I love I love get
it in the morning, prepare the turkey. I premier to
turkey the night before. I love kremin my fist right
up that turkey's ass.

Speaker 8 (07:01):
Oh, that is one of my favorite things. I do
it the night before. I can't wait till the day.
Sometimes I leave it there for a while.

Speaker 2 (07:07):
We almost roasted my wrist one year, my fistup was
almost served.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
You should practice this weekend. What are you doing? You're busy?
Oh god? Anyway, Yeah, I want to tree this year.
