Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:03):
What would you talk about on your on your podcast
firm h Elvis Presents fifteen Minute Morning Show. It's the
fifteen minute morning show podcast is yeah, yeah, I'm just

(00:27):
making sure. H Here if you're wondering, is Froggy. And
there's Danielle. I see Diana in the background. Hid yet,
And there's uh straight Nate, and there's Gandhi and Scary.
We're looking up Scary's nose pretty nice. There's Scotty b
and there's Garrett, and there's Brody in the day and
high Brody in the DN. Good morning, Elvis in the
spot in front of the TV screen. Yes, alright, so

(00:49):
here we are. What do we do? I mean we
had yesterday off. We have a four day work week. Yeah.
I actually thought we were on vacation already, which is
to be honest, like over the weekend, I was like,
oh my gosh, it's vacation. Then I went on vacation.
Yet it was like already in vacation. When it was
really weird with Danielle, I have senioritis. I got that

(01:10):
jump start. I was at the beach, I was hanging
out at an outdoor concert, was in a pool on Saturday,
Sunday with my friends already on vacation. Oh yeah, we
gotta go back for three days, four days. Yeah, it
was tough, that bad. I mean, look at the job
you have to come back to. It's really miserable. Thankful.
It could be a lot worse. Yeah, imagine to perform

(01:32):
it could be a lot worse. Well, alright, so where
do we go? What do you want to do on
the podcast today? Well, okay, I can't hear it your
microphones one on what Hello? I thought it'd be kind
of interesting if since we had somebody used the brown
word twice, well they said ship, I could say that

(01:52):
right right? Um, explain how that dump button works for
the people. I don't think we want to put people
in the curtain to see down real fast. I don't
think that's a good idea at all. Okay, explain. I
just think it's interesting that we have this technology where
people hear us eighteen seconds after we actually speak exactly

(02:15):
Like it boggles your mind when you think about it.
Say this in a little box for eight seconds. It's
like radio DVR. Yeah, but if you tell them they
can you not hear Scotty head from Scottie B Dude
I'm sorry, you're no. I was just saying, if you
actually tell them how it works, someone's going to call
up and go the fucking then we're fucked, you know

(02:38):
what you're We just make it very clear we're not fucked.
We have plenty, plenty of those power and there's no
there's no one who can get through that. And you know,
I find it interesting that Scotty didn't want us to
tell people how our system worked, but instead he told
people how to beat the system. No, no, no, I mean, well,
I'm not gonna say anything else. Well, you know what
we're technically supposed to do. We're supposed to hit the

(03:00):
button and then take the collar off. That is technically
what we're supposed to do, right, so we will do that.
What they're saying is somebody fucked up today? Is that
what you're saying. No, I'm not saying any I mean,
we give the listener the benefit of the doubt once
the second time, I feel like they are in hot water.

(03:23):
We're all good. We're all good. We have no problem
with our dump system. So feel free to uh listen
every day and feel safe. In fact, we can crank
it up. We could be on a full hour. We
can have that thing ramped up to sixty minutes, so
dump so you you don't getting hear the words ship
or fuck at eighteen seconds. If somebody says ship for

(03:43):
eighteen seconds long and we don't turn them off, and
we're stupid and we deserve whatever we can exa, I
think even if he's got twelve donuts in his hand,
he's going to figure out how to turn it off
in eighteen seconds. I got faith thing to be said.
For someone who's so relaxed that they don't realize they're
doing it. It's like a fleeting expletive. We do it

(04:05):
to everyone in a while, would be so relaxed with
each other, well, gosh, the traffic time. I remember the
one day Elvis said fuck. It was like almost nobody
caught it. It was so like notchalant, it's scarious, Like
I think I just heard Fox. We're need to go
back and listen to it. It's sure enough he did
mean for relax But like Nate was saying, if the

(04:25):
first so relaxed and into each other that we totally forget,
we can't say those words, and I don't we thinking
like I was trying not to say asshole in like
this story that I was doing about some celebrity, and
I was like, don't say they're an asshole. Don't say
there an asshole. And then I said they were such
an asshole. I was like, it is funny though, like

(04:46):
because we got a text a couple of weeks ago
and it said, how are you guys able to do
the podcast and swear and say ship all this sudden?
And then you go on the air and your brain
Like can you explain how your brain switches? I just know,
like I just know. I don't think it's a good thing.
Would do this last? Oh no, I don't. Yeah, but
even like, okay, did this first, we'd be in trouble. No, no,

(05:08):
And what I'm saying it's like even during commercial breaks,
like during commercial breaks and you say, this fucking thing
is this story is motherfucker? And then we go on
the air and elviously like perfect, he knows exactly what
he's doing. Yeah, it's just something from doing this for
so long. I used to switch. I used to work
with two guys who hated each other. Okay, back in

(05:29):
the nineties. They hate each other, and in between between
breaks on the air, they would literally have fuck you
fights in one another, and then the microphones would come
on and they would be like, yeah, you were here.
They were like buddies in the air. It's like, I'm like,
how do they turn it off so fast? I mean,
you think about how often we're in a commercial break
and we're telling a filthy story and there's like five

(05:50):
seconds left and then all of a sudden, I was
just comes right on and we've been doing it for
so long. It's like, I don't know how you have
that relative like your mother or your aunt that you
don't curse in front of. I try to pretend the
microphone is the person I won't curse in front of. Well,

(06:11):
you know, I just it's actually odd to be able
to say fuck in front of a microphone like we
can right now. That's why, you know, I don't know
if every If every was not illegal to use foul
language on the air, it would take us a while
to adjust to that. I pick up pretty quickly, and
I'm a quicker job. You don't want to do you

(06:32):
don't want to use foul language just for the second.
That's what Howard said. If you remember when Howard first
went over to x M, he said we are not
going to gratuitously just sit here and use the effort
every five seconds because we can, right. He used the
Spider Man analogy, with great power comes great responsibility, you know,
And that lasted all of three weeks on the Sturge.
But but even till yesterday, if you're watching the Warriors parade,

(06:54):
Draymond Green just got up there. It's like I don't
give a fuck, you know, Like but like I think
he just used it because he had the power to
say it, like it was. There was no place for
him to say I don't give a fuck, you know,
on stage like that, with everybody watching it on ESPN,
you know, like on the caller Drew today, when he
said it, it was natural. It was a mistake. He
didn't have a plan of coming on and saying, oh,

(07:16):
the first one, I felt like that one was natural.
Like he was like, shit, I don't know the second one.
I'm like, okay at this point, He's just like, hey,
I gotta wait with the first one. I'll just say
the second one. Look, you know, And I mean, how
many times do you curse per day? Me and Danielle
or everybody else. So when we have these microphones, on

(07:37):
the fact that we are as slick as we are
and not using you know, fucking ship every other word,
because I don't know if in everyday life we we
use a lot of foul language. Is just who we are.
We're awful people, I know. I also think it's where
you grow grew up, like where I know where scary
can I come from? Blame neighbor, like hanging out on

(08:01):
the corner, like how do I blame North Carolina and Tampa.
Then these words we use as adjectives, nouns, adverbi. Do
you think that one day it won't be foul, It'll
just be regular language and will be desensitized to it.
I think we already sense we already are. That's what's
That's what we are desensitized. Those words mean Yeah. I

(08:25):
don't see the effort any longer as a sex act.
I see the effort as an adjective, like you're fucking crazy,
like it describes how crazy you are. I just see
it as an adjective now describes oh my god, this food.
Fox can say that. Nobody says this this fox, you
fuck your food. No, they say this fox. That's a
new swim done with the word I'm not using the

(08:47):
word anymore. I've never heard my kids say that. I
hope we're hanging out coming so to a mouth near
scary my favorite worn scary like a futurist. No, I'm
telling you your kids saying that, actually calling your son,

(09:12):
don't do that. I'm calling it. But the scariest, totally
believe it's to all the other stuff going on. We're
calling Spencer. Hold on, answer you can everyone like the
one girl I met Spence. You're on the podcast Spencer Spencer,
you can curse Spencer. Can you hear him? We'll ask
him the question. Okay, so here's the question, Scary, ask

(09:34):
him the question. Have you ever used the F word
to describe something like, oh my god, this food, this fox,
this song? Fucks? Do people talk like that you're trying
to describe you like, oh, this is this is a

(09:55):
sixth song? This is crazy? Right like that? Like this,
he says, all the kids are saying it spend in
replacement of slaps now and things. You ever heard that? Ever? No,
the only time I ever hear that is in relation
to a human So like, oh yeah, Steve Carrell, he
foks like that's it. I don't ever hear it about
meals or shoes. I hear it about series and things

(10:17):
and pop culture. Are your shop? Oh yeah, those ear rings? Fuck,
I've heard it about that girls on the block. That
girls on the block. She fox everybody. So he does
say he's going to funk those ear rings off of her.
But that's not that's not the way you think that

(10:38):
your mom made the best in you're a mom, Fox, Okay,
you can have those mother sun conversations like spending. He's like,
who the hell run away? He's like, no freaking cry.

(11:00):
The way he said is everything you're going to tell
your restaurant like, oh my god, this z Fox. Oh
my god. Well then you pack it is really strong, scary.
We're gonna listen back to this podcast one day and
people are gonna be like, oh my god. He was right.
I think that help of it becoming a word just
got killed. This podcast, safe to say, this podcast Fox Happen. Alright, alright, right,

(11:27):
thank you, Scary. What are we done? I think we
should be done now show call us tell us what Fox?
All right, n this podcast fox Man, alright, good bye.
