Speaker 1 (00:03):
What would you talk about on your on your podcast? Fine,
and here we go our very first fifteen minute morning
show podcast from living rooms and kitchens and basements and
guest bedrooms. Yes, it's Quarantine show. It's still too early

(00:30):
for a quarantine e but I wouldn't mind one later
today if you don't like quarantine. So, so here's who's here.
It's Danielle and Gandhi. I hear you. I think Froggy's here. Yeah,
I am here. I'm planning my meal for the Mayan
menu for the rest of the day. Oh good that
you plan your menut. Yeah. So we've got some food
trucks that are coming through our neighborhoods. So they're they're

(00:51):
like letting people you can pre order. And so today
there's three different food trucks coming. I'm gonna order one
thing from each food truck because you know what you
have to write during this time helping the economy. Also,
I think Scary is here. Yeah, I'm right over here.
Now is Nate joining us? I'm here? Can you guys

(01:12):
hear me? Can hear you? So you're in the other room,
though you're not in the same room as Scary. Correct,
Now he's in the room, but he's at the far
end of the room at the tip I'm a scary
feet from him, I know, but he was sneezing earlier
and it scared the hell out of everyone. And then
I look over it and he's using You ever see
somebody use their entire arm to wipe their nose, That's

(01:33):
what's scary. Scary. First of all protocol, sneeze shamed with
him with my own thing. Now we're not shaming here, Yeah,
I just I think some dust got in in my
in my face, and I don't know whatever it was.
The point is, I've seen that this happened a lot
over the weekend. So I actually went out for a

(01:54):
walk on my own and I was distancing myself on
the sidewalk. I was trying to go around people, but
I could hear from the other side of the street
someone coughing, and I just freaked out immediately, and I'm like,
you know what this person is. Probably it could be
just a common cold, but now people are getting shamed
just for even now you gotta hold it in, sneezing, coughing,

(02:16):
any of it. And I did the same thing over
the weekend, like we were doing a lot of bike riding,
and whenever I would pass someone, I would quickly turn
my face the other direction. I'm like, that's terrible. I'm like,
what an awful thing to do to somebody. But you
were doing it. We're all doing it. We're all doing it.
It's just, you know, it's the way alife. It's okay,

(02:36):
but when someone coughs or sneezes, you're like, oh, if
they farted, to be like, oh, they farted. I don't
get it that way. I don't know what's that? What's
that name? Yeah? Have you guys noticed you've been holding
your breath a lot more when someone walks by or
something like, I mean the store and then there's somebody

(02:56):
in my purse, like getting close to that, you know
the area, and I've noticed I've been holding my breath.
I don't know if that does anything, but it's just
my natural body's reaction when somebody gets close to me
is to hold my breath. And you get every time
like what are you doing? What are you doing? Get away?
Get away? Yeah, you know what. I don't think that's
unusual for any of us to be doing that. We're
all doing a lot of things, a lot different now,

(03:17):
and I bet we will still do it. Yeah, but
don't you feel like I don't know about you. When
I was out bike riding at people were out and
about because it was beautiful this weekend, and it was
nice to see somebody from across the way and say hey,
how you doing, and just say hello to people and
actually see civilization like that actually made me feel good
to see people out and about. You know, Oh, I

(03:40):
had the craziest thing happened the other day. So you
guys know. I went to the Ohio c University and
I was walking down the street the other day. I
ran into a girl from college who I went to
school with, and I saw her. At first I saw
her dogs. Of course, I was like, oh, keepe dog
and it came running over and then I heard medea.
I'm like wow, in a type of quarantine, I run
into someone from college on the street outside my house.

(04:01):
It's crazy. It's like, Hi, Maida, can you get away
from my dog? Sorry? The dog was so cute. What's up,
genevese Elvis? I was telling you all the people in
our neighborhood are using sidewalk chalk with somebody put on
a bucket and on the side. On the side of
the bucket, it says, draw your own with the sidewalk chalk.
I'm like, I'm not touching that sidewalk chalk. I don't

(04:22):
know what's on and I'll go get my own sidewalk chalk.
I'm like, don't put it back, don't share your talk.
Hey Daniel, what do you just drop on the floor.
There's always you want to It just happened. The cat
was climbing on boxes behind me and knock them all over,
so I gave him a look like, what the hell

(04:42):
are you doing? You know, we're doing a broadcast over here.
It's so weird because when we're in the studio together
doing a show, everything is so controlled and everything is
in its place. And when you're doing a show from
your kitchen or your living room or your basement or
your guest bedroom, it's like you have to kind of
merge your your everyday a routine into your work life.
And you know, it's like, I've got a refrigerator in

(05:04):
a microwave three feet from me. It's fabulous. I'm never
coming back to the station this morning. This this morning,
Foggy goes, what the hell is that noise? I said,
I think Elvis just started to run his dishwasher. You
put the dishes in and you ran your dishwash. Yeah,
of course I got I got dishes to do. I
have a question, two loads of loads of laundry. I'm

(05:26):
getting all sorts of stuff done. Here. Is anybody else
gonna dread when we have to go back to work
and we can't do it from home and like double
time and get stuff done while you're at home in here? Yeah?
I like the human interaction. Yeah, even when we alrea together.
You know, it's gonna be so long before we start
actually hugging. You know, it's gonna be it's gonna it's

(05:48):
gonna be a process. It's gonna be kind of crazy.
I was talking to my boyfriend about that, because so
you know, the love language is obviously my secondary but
very close to primary love language is physical touch. So
that means I obviously like hugs and kisses and interaction
with people a lot. And this is really difficult on me,
Like I don't even have we we're talking about a

(06:08):
dog or anything that I can snuggle up to, and
it's it's so strange. This is a strange time. Well,
so here we are only it's only Monday. We have
a full week, and I've got to be honest with you,
behind the scenes every day when we have available ability
to do our show, it's a gift because there was
a struggle every night about someone being quarantined and someone

(06:29):
can't make it in and and the fact and I
gotta I gotta just point out the fact that scary
in Nate and Garrett are coming in every day and
they're in our facilities in Manhattan to keep us on
the air. We would be dead without you guys. And
Scotty b got out of his quarantine. We lifted his
quarantine because they thought it was a bit over the top,

(06:52):
and so without them we would be we'd be crap.
We couldn't do it. So thanks, thanks, guys. Know they
can't hear us right now. Areciate the um And I'm
gonna be here as long as I possibly Kearen you know,
so you and Nate like, Nate like, what does it
feel like to be in New York City? Because they're
saying that this is the epicenter of everything going on

(07:13):
in the United States as far as coronavirus. Nature just
ran back into the studio. You want to repeat. I'm
sorry I was doing I thought it was a great
question you guys, I was saying. I was just saying
thank you to you guys for being at Master Control,
because without you guys there, we couldn't do this every day.
And you know, New York City has been, uh has
been called now the epicenter of the coronavirus in the

(07:35):
United States, and you're right in the middle of it.
How does it feel coming into work every day and
being there? It's uh, it's eerie. Um, you don't see
nearly as many people as you did three weeks ago.
Even last week, every day there's been significantly less people.
Even this morning scary. And I normally park in a
garage where somebody takes your car and they park it
for you, and this morning we're like, let's just park

(07:58):
it on the street. Plenty of parking, plenty of spots
on the spots. The point is that was like, really,
other than seeing each other in the studio, the one
point of personal contact that we might have, and we
made a path, the three of us, Scotty scaring myself,
stay away from other people because if one of us
gets the other person is gonna get sick. And then
we just don't have a show because really kind of

(08:20):
emanating out of here. And you know, it's great that
you guys are out of here, but we missed the
hell out of you. You know, there's something about not
having you guys here. It's great to see you, it's
great to hear you. But I can't wait for this
all to get over. And I am sister of every
day that that will happen. It's interesting though, you guys
are all working together, but you're in separate rooms, but

(08:40):
you have windows so you can actually see each other.
So I mean, it's it's different than any other business
that would be going through the same thing. I'm sure
some this is it's just an odd thing, but scary.
I mean, it's a little eerie for you coming into
work every day. Oh yeah, there was no I mean
my commute time was was chopped in half. I barely

(09:01):
there was barely any cars in the tunnel. I take
the Holland Tunnel into work every day and usually it's
a nice the nice volume of cars. Um just I
barely saw the car in front of me on the way.
And and I'm sure it's gonna be like that as
soon as I leave here to go back home because
everyone was told to stay home, and then people are
doing the right thing. But that's a good thing that
I love that people are staying home. Yeah, I'm kind

(09:22):
of leaved to see very little, very few people on
the road. Yeah, yeah, I'm for me. Even driving in
this morning, there's normally stop license. Danielle, you take the
West Side Highway too, and that's a big New York
city in Manhattan, and there's stop lights where you're lined
up with forty sixty other cars. I was the only
person at several different stoplights this morning. Wow. But that's
great because that means people are actually listening right right.

(09:45):
And then on the other hand, our friend Danielle DeLillo
was telling me that she went for a very quick
jog on the boardwalk where she lives in Long Island
and Long Beach, and she said they were having a
Saturday afternoon like like any other day of the week,
and there were was kind of frightened to see how
many people were out and about and not social distancing.
So I still think some people are heating the warning,

(10:08):
others are are not. And the quicker we can all
do this together, the quicker we'll get out of this
and go back to some normalcy. You know what it
is sacrifice, you know, and I think we have been
so spoiled living in this country. Even through the biggest
of challenges, we are still spoiled. And we just don't
really understand a lot of people don't understand the word

(10:29):
sacrifice and the application of being sacrificing. You know. You
see all these people who are still essential employees as
their call, but they are the ones who are keeping
everything rolling. And the list is like a mile long.
I mean, if we mentioned three people were leaving out
a hundred people who are doing things to keep us
moving and working and and being able to live our lives.

(10:50):
And you know what, Uh, they're sacrificing by not staying home.
They're sacrificing, sacrificing by not keeping a really safe distance
from other people. So thank you. You know. What I
have to say to that Elvis is that if Scary
can do it, anybody can do it. Because what do
you mean by that? I called him up last night
just to check in and go, how you doing? He

(11:11):
goes Bardess fun doing it well, and I am I'm
I'm actually adhering to you know, to this my friends
from Brooklyn are like there. I'm in a group chat
with them and they're like, come on, you know, hey, Scary,
there's no way you're staying in. Tell us what you've
been doing to perpetuate the spread. Like they're like they can.
I'm like you, guys, I'm like, I really am taking

(11:32):
this seriously, and they cannot believe that I'm quarantining. They
cannot believe it. So are you and Robin your your girlfriend?
Are you getting together at all? No? No, she's quarantining
from me because she of her weekend immune system. Because
she's like, I don't know where you've been. So I'm like,
I understand, you know, I miss her. I missed her
a great deal, but like I don't know, you know,
are you guys having like phone Sare are you guys

(11:54):
doing any do not talking about it? Come on, Scary?
We did, and she's doing that. Had a virtual happy
hour with their friends, and she didn't invite me. The
other day when I've been out here at the farm
by myself, and like I said, the only living animal

(12:15):
or creature I see is like a bird flying by.
That's all I've had for a week. Right, And so
yesterday when Alex arrived, we were both like, okay, so
we don't run each we don't hug, We just like high.
It doesn't matter. I don't even care if he's on
the opposite side of the house, which he is right now.
Just knowing he's here is kind of great. But I
also know he's leaving. He's gonna leave and go back
to work and stuff. But it's it's just a wild

(12:38):
time for everyone, and we'll get through it. We we we.
There is an end to this and people can keep
forgetting that, and uh, just gotta get to the end.
Until then, I'm order v I P. Bottle service to
my bathroom and put a velvet room around. It is
a really interesting time, though, Like you're seeing a lot

(12:59):
about people. You're seeing which people that you have in
your life are willing to sacrifice for the greater good,
and you're seeing the people who aren't. And it's really
making me, like I told you, guys, kind of reassessed.
I don't know what I think of you. Is it
that serious that you have to go party, that you're
willing to put a lot of people in danger? And
I find it fascinating. I saw a little me the
other day that said, our grandparents were called to war,

(13:19):
we're being called to sit on the couch. We can
do this, we can do this. And then you know,
you're in a house for like kids and people running
around and animals and stuff. But I mean, do you
guys treat each other a little differently in the confines
of your house. No, because we've been together this whole time,
so it's like, you know, we're on top of each other.
I mean, Sheldon has been going back and forth to work,

(13:40):
but his work has been totally different, like because he's
a real estate agent, but they've been doing virtual tours
and different stuff, and there's certain things he's allowed to
do and not allows doing. He has his gloves and
his mask and all that stuff, so he's been extra cautious. Um.
But no, I mean the kids haven't gone anywhere. They
their home. The only thing we do is go outside, right,
our bikes, go for jogs, play soccer in the park

(14:01):
next door. Um, And then that's really it. And I
go to the store and everything. But I'm so cautious.
Um for groceries, if we need groceries, if I can't
order them online, because sometimes try to order them online.
Used to You used to be able to get them
same day. Now it's a week out. You can groceries
for a week out. It is, it's insane, it's crazy. Yeah,

(14:21):
well look I think we're almost done. And even with
