Speaker 1 (00:00):
Let's hit this button. Good. What would you talk about
on your on your podcast Morning Show? I get it, Sam,
it's the it's the intro. But you hear the intro.

(00:21):
We're doing this almost like five hundred times, same the
same intro, which is a great intro by Josh. No
fault at him. But you just want to get to it.
You got a lot to say, and I think that
intro sometimes just takes up a few few moments, just
like I'm doing right now. Well, I just am not
in the mood to be pumped up today, and you're
you're trying to pump up me being pumped up with
that intro and I'm not having I'm not having a

(00:43):
morning to be pumped up. It's that Monday. It's that Monday.
Feel what up? Everyone? It is Garrett along with Sam
Morning Show is locked in the studio secret project, so secret,
Sam and I have no idea. Yeah, one of you're
you ever get like growing up your you know, siblings
or friends are playing in the room and you try

(01:03):
to get into the said room and the doors locked
because I was the oldest. Oh you're the one locking
the door. The son of a gun, though I too
was the oldest. I had two younger sisters, and obviously
you know they're they're tag teams. So every time they
would you know, play, you know, they would go into
their room and whether it be a board game or
video game, or or tea party or moral madness whatever,

(01:26):
not for Garrett, the door get locked, So me nonchalantly
thinking like why would they, I would walking up try
to get them. Now, you know there's something you're missing. Hello,
like on an Elsa in Frozen, Hello, do you want
to lend your brother? No? So, so that's what it
was like we walked into the studio or like, so
here we are with the podcast. Um, let's uh, how

(01:49):
was your weekend? It looked like it was filled with music, thievery,
and carving pumpkins. Yeah, that's actually a pretty even description
of what it was. That's perfect. I went to a concert.
I want to see a little low key band called
Jukebox the Ghost. I've seen them seven times seven Now
that's commitments seven times. It's the kind of band that
not a lot of people know about, but people who
know about them bond over knowing the band so much.

(02:11):
So let's just say, are you at that point now
if your band jukebox, the ghost, the ghost jukebox, the jukebox,
the ghost like blows up like, let's just say next week.
They become the biggest thing in the music industry. Got it?
Will you look at me and say, I saw them
seven times and it was a fan since day one

(02:32):
before anyone else? Are you that would people start acting
about in them being a new band, Yes, that's when
I was. One of their lyrics is literally I never
thought we'd get to two thousand nine, so you want
to update? You know what that's like. That's like when
you go to a pizza riha and they go the
best pizza in We're almost time to take down that sign.

(02:58):
You did it once? Where have you been the last
eight years? What your slice? Let's be real. I won't
be mad that other people love them as well, because
it's well deserved. And once people are like, oh, this
new band, I just discovered this new that's when I
would start to get grumpy. Yes, and know that we
are you are late to the party, and you know
we're We're less than a week away from Halloween, so
pretty much everyone is in that weird like going to

(03:19):
celebrate Halloween this weekend and those that celebrate Halloween next weekend.
I find a little odd because you're already in November,
and that's what I'm doing. Sam We're past things, we're past.
We're past. This is not like a major holiday like
Hanukah or Christmas. Word. No, it's more important unites all
of us, Samantha, Listen, we're in November that I'll fight

(03:40):
you right now, and you're still dressing up in November one.
It's not yet November. It will be that very next weekend, November.
Next weekend will be November. Yeah, but I didn't this
Halloween to be on a Thursday. I get it, but
that means we're that much closer to Thanksgiving and Thanksgiving
unless're gonna dress as a pilgrimage. You go out this
week in the cut offline is the thirty one slash

(04:05):
early morning of the first because of the late night party.
After that, you are officially awkward fully disagree. I didn't.
I'm going to a party like a beer garden is
hosting a party, so it's not even like I'm dressing
up and running around the neighborhood. And I hope it
is the first Thanksgiving party and everyone is dressed as
Pilgrim's a costume contest and I'm here to play. Are
you going to be a Turkey? I'm not going to
tell you what I'm what I am or I'm not

(04:26):
going to be well, I asked him. I was like,
what are you gonna be? Go? I'm gonna put it together.
You're a week away. You have to have some type
of idea what you're gonna be playing it cool? But yeah,
I've been putting hours of effort into these costumes. But
if I pretend I'm not trying too hard, it will
be all the more impressive. I put a lot of
thought into mine. I left it to a four year old.
You've got a good job, so he uh. He pretty

(04:47):
much opened up the uh the catalog said you're going
to be that, and I said, okay, cool. But here's
my other dilemma. So we're getting costumes here at work,
and I said, Diamond, let's play a game. Okay, you're
going to pick my costume. So she picked up, Oh yeah,
Nate did that to us one year. But here's the thing,
as opposed to finding out what it is like opening

(05:08):
up the box like Christmas morning and saying, oh, I'm
going to keep my eyes closed. I'm going to get
helped getting dressed and then, just like a reality TV show,
have a big reveal of what my costume here at
work will be. I hope it's mortifying. I have no idea,
but I hope it's more. I have no idea. I
have no idea. Diamonds the only one in this office
that knows we will. We will do a big reveal

(05:29):
like a game show. But when we did that tonight,
we made him dress as a female life guard. Well,
I know, yeah, bay Watch. Baywatch was the theme of choice.
I believe around that. So, uh, does your boyfriend William
have an idea for a costumer? Is he like you?
You just throw it you know? Oh no, he's always
my plus one. I do you don't mess with greatness,
and my costume ideas are always great, so he always

(05:50):
pairs with me and said, costumes, are you gonna be
Jim and Pam from the office, So we're not going
to be jam. Yeah, I have a celebrity couple. I've
seen I've seen a lot of office over the weekend,
a lot of office costumes. I did one over the weekend.
You did what were you over the weekend? So you
a picture right now. I carved. We do a pumpkin
carving contest in my family every year, and this year

(06:12):
I decided to kind of costume it up and I
carved the pumpkin to be the pumpkin helmet. Dwight get
stuck on his head? Did you put on your head?
I did put it on my head. Look I was Dwight.
I was pumpkin headed, Dwight. Where's you? That's Dwight. That
you on the bottom. Very good, thank you. I thought
I thought that was like another screen grab from the office.
But no, that's very good, thank you. That's me. That

(06:34):
took a long amount of time and my sisters were
very entertained, which is really my only life goal. Well,
you have the big pumpkin carving contest at the Samantha
family household. Who won? Um? I objectively speaking, I think
my little sister did veggie tails all right. I thought,
your sister that's getting married, that put the date and

(06:54):
tugged at the heart strings of the family around the pumpkin.
She goes surprised and it's her wedding date, and I
just yelled, I knew it. Basic bit your wedding date
on a pumpkin. But yeah, so it was a very
uh when I did the basic thing of apple picking
as well this weekend. You've got kids to worry about,
like little children, especially when they get lost, when they

(07:16):
get lost in the apple fields, that is, it's so weird,
like you don't know where they are. Do you judge
parents that have leashes for their children? Dude, you get
a leash like I don't. I don't judge them, and
I don't even have little ones running around you put
you put any human on a leash unless you're into it,
Like can you crack there? It's it's so wrong at

(07:36):
it's not the same thing. But I'm saying that's the
only acceptable thing if you're into that. But beside, you
put a four year old on a leash, like, no way, Garrett,
there's a hundred percent chance I'm going to lose my
child when I have one one I know I did
this weekend in the apple field, and luckily I found
him eating an apple under a tree. Luckily, thank goodness.
But I bet you your heart, I bet you ship

(07:58):
your heart first. Well, no, I know, when when the
kids are out in the like just playing whatever, I
go full Kevin Costner bodyguard wherever they are, Like, yeah, exactly,
I love Whitney. Um, but yeah, this weekend, Hudson was
like playing with hula hoops and on a dance floor
and kids were tossing the hula hoops. I was taking

(08:19):
hula hoops to the shin like it was nobody else's business,
just like no one's Yeah exactly, and then my daughter
picked her no, so that was great. Um, but yeah,
we we did that Halloween weekend. Problem with apple picking
now is it's the end of the season, so you're
getting mushy apples. So it's a lot of mushy apples,
a lot of Yeah, I've given up on those, all right.
So before we got in here, we were talking to

(08:41):
one of our interns and uh, They're asking, hey, uh,
I'm gonna save a file. I'm gonna leave it open
because I don't want to close it because because if
I closed it, I already screwed up something and I
don't want to screw it up again. We said, go ahead,
it's saved, No big deal, she goes, No. I did
something last week and it was the first time Brody
said in twenty years that ever happened. First of all

(09:01):
guilting our interns another kiss, but got me thinking, what
was the worst screw up you have had here with
the Morning show? I have to I have as an
intern where I'm surprised I was ever hired after that,
And then I have one post hire where I'm surprised
I wasn't let go after that. So which one do

(09:22):
you want to hear? Well, you go, We'll do a sandwich.
We'll do a Sam sandwich. Start your story, okay, the
intern one, I'll give mine, and then you can follow
up with your your second one. Okay, tag team cool.
So when I was an intern, I was in this
same room and it was our job for Top of
the Charts, which we do almost every week, to pull
thirty seconds of a top song loaded into a new cut,

(09:43):
so that when Elvis says the number one song in Bulgaria,
any Prices is playing, it's the thirty seconds. Well, I
somehow replaced Rihanna's California King Bed full song with my
thirty second clip. And how our system works is this
is an I heart stuff. Everyone shares this system. So
if someone in l A had to play California King Bed,

(10:05):
they would click it and it would be my thirty
second segment instead of the entire song. It would throw
everything off. I lost the actual song, and Brody did
not know how I did it. He and Lauren, who
who had the job that I have now before me,
doing great up in Boston. She is, she is with
a little nugget and sadorable. Um. They were in this
room freaking out, making phone calls, trying to get the

(10:28):
original coffee of that song. And I'm standing outside this
glass wall watching them, like tremoring because I lost a
song and the time was of the essence, because anyone
could play that song in the country at any moment.
You're You're the equivalent of the family member in a
medical drama TV show that is inside the the the

(10:49):
room itself, and then something bad happened, and then then
doctors go, ma'am, you can't be here anymore. So you're
on the opposite side of the glass, hands on the window,
just breathing where like you're you're bringing out your instead
of yelling that's my child. I was like, that's my feature.
That was it sweating bullets, But obviously you're still here. Yeah.

(11:10):
Brodie came out and put both hands up in the
area as if like approaching a small animal and he's like,
everything's fine, we figured it out, but I don't know
how you did that. Wizard as one of those I
love the things like it happens in relationships to where
it's like, how did you why did you do that?
And only your only answer is I don't know. I

(11:37):
I'm very impressive. Unfortunately it's only for negative shit. So
what was yours so about? I'll put it at five
years ago, five six years ago, Simon Cowell was just
starting The X Factor and he was uptown and he
was taping something with Kelly Rippa for her show, and

(11:57):
that the people over at Fox said, Hey, would you
like to come interview Simon when you put up on
YouTube and play audio back on the show? Fantastic? So
at the time, we didn't have the deluxe team that
we had here at at our show. So what I
did was I reached out to my local UH university
where I graduated from Rodney University and who I'm having
to be warning their swart shirt right now, and I said, hey,

(12:19):
do you have someone to film this interview? I can.
I'm getting like almost twenty thirty minutes with Simon Cowell
sit down and talk about life music business, because that
was like peak Simon. That was where It's like Simon
was like ahead of Gordon Ramsey on the on on
the Judges chart like he was. He was the guys
the reinvention of the white T shirt exactly and and
the hard nipple. Uh. He just just he So we

(12:43):
sat down, we did this whole interview or talking about
life music just just finding one direction pretty much and
the success of that. And he was giving me like
all these keys of life. Great interview, so uh five,
So we're done, and I'm like, dude, I tell the
intern that was with us, uh, not even the intern,
the student that was with go, hey, do you mind

(13:04):
showing me you know the stuff, just so I can
have some type of mind when I'm gonna use Um.
I don't know how to tell you this. Um, I
only got five minutes, so I fired for five I
didn't pay them, so what was I couldn't yell ye
your fire just to feel better, So I go, what
do you mean five minutes ago? Yeah? Five minutes the
card that was recording you filled up, and I didn't

(13:28):
know how to stop. I didn't. I didn't. I felt
awkward stopping you guys. So I kept on going. So
for twenty twenty plus minutes, Simon Cowell and I played
pretend interview in there. So I had to come back
in salvage like thirty seconds somewhere in that five minutes
and go hey, great in a real Simon CALLI, here's

(13:48):
what do you have to say? And play did and
worked out well, but I feel robbed though this is
not a story about how you screwed up professionally? What
kind of I was? I was part of a screw
up professionally? What is it called munch? How is a
by proxy? Well? You know what? Here we have a
minute left, I will I will share one with you.
So when before iPhones and before Instagram live, there was

(14:09):
all this technology of like here try this, you can
bring your show live. So we brought our show live
on the air one day where scary we were given
the tour around and Gregg T was still with us,
and Greg T was filming something out by our main
office lobby and you could connect to the internet, pull
it up and hear it live on the show as
you watch it on elvistan dot com. So, just because

(14:31):
the technology was so new, things froze up. So Scary
and Brody came out and they started goofing around because
it's freezing up and blah blah blah. So we're in
the hallway of the office and I go, this is
a big cluster. Guess what went over the air cluster
cluster fun my favorite breakfast cereals. Yes, well we will continue.

(14:51):
We'll get your other story, Sam, but you never know
how I screwed up professionally. Now fifteen minute morning show
