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

Speaker 2 (00:05):
So we were on a plane flying home during the eclipse,
so we didn't we didn't see anything. Yeah, we tried,
but you know, everyone was texting pictures. So I was
on the plane watching the photos as they were coming in.

Speaker 1 (00:17):
He did tell us to open the window and not look.

Speaker 2 (00:24):
The pilot said, open your window. There's an eclipse going on.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
He was like, underneath us is the eclipse. I don't
know if your windows open or closed, but if you
open your window, you really shouldn't look like what everyone's
gonna look.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
Then he's like, if you notice it's darker outside, and
it's oh, you probably shouldn't look. What the Okay?

Speaker 1 (00:41):
And there there's Andrew with this camera outside the window.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Flash flash, flash, flash using flash. Yeah, he's usually a
flash in a window that's reflecting the flash. Oh Andrew,
what are you doing? I'm telling you, And I'm guilty
of this too. Once my foot steps into an air
port and I get on a plane then off the
plane out of the airport, during that segment of time,

(01:04):
my IQ level goes way down. Yeah, and I know
that everyone else does too, don't you get a little
stupid in the airport and on airplane we were having
that conversation where they insecurity're like, okay, Sarah, you can
come and what I don't know play.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
I could never find out where to put my headphones in,
and so Andrew was.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
Like, it's right here, Oh where is this headphone? Yeah,
let's get into that eclipse thing from me yesterday. Hi Erica,
Hello Elvis and friends. So Erica is calling from Erie, Pennsylvania,
the home of course straight Innate, but also in the
path of the eclipse, so you had front row seating.

(01:41):
How was your experience, Erica, It was amazing.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
I was with my parents, my best girlfriend, and my
husband and my dog, who of course we kept them inside,
but we were on their deck and just when the
fatality came, like Natesa, the clouds parted. We had a
gorgeous view, like even to the point where the total
eclipse the Heart uh you know song, when we played

(02:06):
it like it ended and I got to restart the song.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
It was so long, wait hold on. You played totally
Eclipse of the Heart while the eclipse was going on.

Speaker 3 (02:16):
Yes, we did that during the eclipse, and then before
the eclipse we pregameed by bejeweling our glasses.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
Did you play this dance version of Total Eclipse of
the Heart because we don't have the slow one? That's
Nikki French. Oh see this is this is kind of
the bootleg version, but I can't see watching the eclipse
of the dance version.

Speaker 4 (02:41):
Scary.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
Don't you have the original? Go into the light FM file.
This was made for must have made for a very
festive party on the deck, so you got to having
cocktails play this. I was so sorry for that guy

(03:04):
in the background because all these things is cut her
up brought up. So did you follow the proper protocol
and not fry your retinas? You were the glasses?

Speaker 3 (03:20):
Well I did. But then in the middle of this,
I will over to my loving family and I had
to remind them what are your people doing?

Speaker 2 (03:30):
Wow? To be an optometrist in Erie, Pennsylvania today? Who
was it that you're optometry back in the day? He
was one of the three they had three. Well, Erica,
thank you for sharing. I'm glad at least you save
your retinas and you put on the proper eyewear.

Speaker 3 (03:47):
Well, yeah, I look forward to seeing you guys later.
This going to New York City.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
Oh, come on into the city. You know, we're always
wherever you are in the New York City area, we
are there too.

Speaker 3 (03:55):
Okay, take it before the fifteen dollars. So thank you
so much, guys.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
We'll see you then. What was your clips observations? Gary Well?

Speaker 4 (04:01):
Watching all the television news recaps, they each spent about
ten to fifteen minutes worth of their news broadcasts on
coverage from all over and it was just so nice.
I got this warm and fuzzy feeling to see everybody
come together for some good news. And it was he
was like, I brought everyone together, and I'm like, and
then after the commercial break back to.

Speaker 2 (04:20):
I know exactly, back to our sad selves. But that
was kind of a cool thing in the city of
how many million people, It was a group a group activity.
Geo Benitez, our good friend over at ABC. He actually
got emotional.

Speaker 5 (04:35):
Oh, Lindcy, I'm sorry. I'm thinking about all of the
hardships that we cover at ABC News because that's what
happens in journalism, is that we go when we tell
these stories, and so many of those stories are people
who are living through their toughest times, and here everyone
is together nobody is divided. Everyone is unified and looking

(04:59):
up at the sky to other and seeing that we
really are this small on this planet. And I like
to tell people. They say, you know, do you want
to go into space? And I say, wait a minute.
We are on the best spaceship possible right here, and
we could see it out through it with what an
incredible window we have out of this spaceship Earth.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
We love you. He is right. You know, when you're
out on the beat, you know, working for Network News,
you're out there covering things that are just emotionally you
know whatever. Yeah, strange am I looking at I'm out
of my mind. You cover all these things that can
really bring you down at the end of the day.

(05:45):
So he said they're doing something kind of fun.

Speaker 1 (05:47):
That was nice. He really did effect him that way.
That was nice.

Speaker 2 (05:50):
He's a very really, really sweet guy. He is. I
didn't mean to pike fun of you with totally clips
of the heart. What's that foggy? I saw?

Speaker 6 (05:58):
Another guy was It was on ABC. He was talking
to Robin Roberts and his mother was in Mexico and
he could he hadn't seen his mom in some time.
And then he was getting emotional. How he and his
mom were able to focus and look at the same
thing on that day and he started getting emotional as well.
So it really did bring people together all across the
all across the cottony yesterday.

Speaker 1 (06:19):
All right, that's nice.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
So I guess we should have taken it more seriously. No,
that's not what we do. They're in seat four A. Yeah,
drink it on my for my really bad wine.

Speaker 1 (06:30):
You weren't in the back of the plane.

Speaker 2 (06:35):
I made money at the blackjack table. Yeah, Ture and
everyone else out of it.
