Speaker 1 (00:02):
What would you talk about on your on your podcast
Elvis Presents Show. What are you guys laughing about? Hug
it one at a time? We just found out, you
know how we always say that like Scary does endorsements

(00:24):
that have nothing to do with his life. So we
just found out he might be doing something with a
soccer team. And he's face because like I am a
Red Bull supporter, so I would do something with the
Red Bulls. Well, then there's also the nyc FC and
soccer teams in New York. Yes, so surprise you know
that Scary supposedly do and T is a huge soccer

(00:45):
fan and T's face just now, how come T can't
do that? I mean, why don't you T should be
doing that? That you should be doing that client. Um,
it's not a client. It's nonprofit and a company is
coming to town and giving out re laundry. They're doing
laundry for people and getting our free rolls of quarters
for people that can't afford it at in certain areas

(01:06):
of New York City, and and they're doing they're doing
it with n y CFC, the soccer team, and that's it.
It was just a public service announcement. But But the
problems with Greg t run a lot deeper than that.
He's got a problem because I'm endorsing Acts deodorant white.

(01:26):
But the thing is, can I can I enjoy soccer?
Can I use these products every I mean we all
use them, But he's that's not a singular I know.
But what people need to know is we're on the
third floor. Down on the second floor is the sales department.
Scary is down there every day schmoozing for every account
that can come across, so you can make extra money.

(01:46):
And there's nothing wrong with that. But sometimes t you
can throw something Tea's way. He just he just got
the deal to do commercials for the Zach Brown band.
Great Great Tea is the biggest set Brown band fan.
All right, Well, you gotta understand that even though it's
all funny games, you know, behind the scenes, there's a

(02:08):
business going on here, and everyone in here is their
own businessman when it comes to doing commercials and products.
And my point in this entire thing is just because
you use a product doesn't mean I don't don't even
touched as that's not I have it in my cabinet home.
I ax right over there, body where Elvis that to you.

(02:30):
But what I'm saying, I'm to I'm scary. He just
got the account to do a great tea's daughter's dance
team endorsements. I'm doing travel to India. God, he shouldn't
get that. Scary's hosting the Great the Gay Priparade. He Gandhi.

(02:52):
You know, Gandhi, you arrived on our shore several several
months ago, and did you did you know there was
such a competition here behind the scene. It's cutthroat. It's bloody,
bloody battles going on for people vying for for ad dollars.
I had no idea. I am slowly finding out how
crazy it gets over But do you notice it's the guys.
Oh yeah, the guy's Danielle and I got no problem.

(03:14):
I don't I go downstairs. It's like I have a
meeting and then you know, you always get pulled into
all the directions. But I only think Goddy and I
have ever gone down and gone, hey, what you got
for us? But I have heard that many of the
male people on this show have gone downstairs and said, he,
what you got for me? You'll never see You'll never
see me downstairs doing that. No, I know it's always

(03:35):
commercials and Peyton Manning, but I don't go downstairs and
as they come to the come to them to alright. Okay,
so that's what's going on in the background. Okay, here's
something else going on in the background. This is of
course a podcasting. We're doing podcast on Wednesday, June twelve.
So on our morning show this morning, we had our
new intern Robbie come on. He is, but you know what,
he said something that was very unpopular on the show,

(03:55):
and he was he got his first taste of the
mass mass audiences yelling at him and calling him an asshole.
So let's bring in turn, Robbie. Let's bring in the
asshole in turn. Here's your microphone right here. I half
agree and half disagree. Okay, so you actually, Robbie, got
a taste of what it's like having we have ten

(04:16):
million listeners. You're going to get some response on on
social media. Welcome the radio. Thank you. So they were
calling you all sorts of names. It was not kind.
They called you asshole, fun face, that's that was Gandhi
calling you. Sorry, that's okay, I got I was called

(04:37):
a tool and a douche. Someone said I looked like
a chad boy. Apparently in the picture they posted my
hands were, you know, down by my waist. Anybody's like, oh,
what is it? What is he grabbing down there? Okay, Well,
my favorite part of our interview with you were telling
a story. You're like, yeah, one weekend, I went to
a track meet, and I'm like, who the fund goes

(04:57):
to try? Let's run track? I do. I'm a pole
vaulter for Boston University. Paul Vaulter pulled dancers. Do you
know what he also does? He can sign language. I
can't speak sign language. So you're very well rounded. And
I know you come from a great, fun, interesting liberal family,
and and and so you experiencing you're experiencing things in

(05:18):
life a lot of people don't experience. But you did
say today on our show that you had met someone
on tender and when she showed up, she was not
as she looked in her photo. But the way you
said it was she was seventy five pounds heavier than
she really was in the photo. I'd like to apologize
for that comment. Retroactive. One of the problem wasn't that

(05:40):
she was seventy pounds more than her photo. The problem
was because you when you saw that, you immediately kicked
her out of your dorm room. I sent her home.
Part I think was the which that wasn't abrupt I
kind of panicked. It was more just because like, if
you're starting out a relationship untruthful, how does that that
can't bode well for the You know, I agree, I

(06:01):
agree with you, And I told him that I did
this once on a date dating app like years ago,
and the guy that showed up look nothing like the picture,
and I felt like, well, that's just not right, Like,
how do you feel if I did that to him?
So I get that she straight up cat fished you.
So how can you can't argue with what your feelings
are The way you might have expressed it was a
little harsh, But that's that's that's what the problem of

(06:24):
what you're saying. I agree with you basically said, she
was right. I kicked her out immediately immediately. But what
you're doing here, what Robbie, is you're learning that in
this business we do have to be very sensitive in
how we tell stories. Let's look, it's a great internship
lesson one. This is a lesson one. Yeah, if I
had to do it over again, I would not have

(06:45):
been so I'll never get the chance. Robbie. Robbie is
ratings goal. Can I get back to pole vaulting? This
is this is a sport I've never really understood. I mean,
because you run and then with this bendable hole you
go up over another pole. It's it's like, it's like,
what's the thing where you go under? It's like over

(07:08):
over the pole, limbo. And he's very tall, so I'm
how do you get your whole body? But the talk
actually helps because if you're thinking about a triangle that
I make when I jump, the angle of my takeoff
is a lot larger because my hand is so much
higher than someone who's only like five ft. And you
curl how you curl, You curl over the pole and

(07:28):
you're like just an inch away from it the whole time.
It's it's so fun and it's so the best part
is falling afterwards, because who gets to fall from fifteen
feet repeated every Friday night anyway, So yes, you know,
in turn, Robbie better than anyone. I spent about an
hour and a half interviewing him, and somewhere in the
fifteen minute mark, I realized, oh my god, he's a

(07:49):
topic machine. One of the things he wrote for an
upcoming home because all my interns do homework with their
suggested topics, and one of the topics he suggested was
should your ex girlfriend hang out with your family members?
And is it okay for them to remain friends? So
his ex girlfriend is now best friends with his sister,
and she doesn't He doesn't speak to this ex girlfriend,
so in the telling of this story, he typed it

(08:11):
up for me. He says, and I really have no
interest in seeing her, especially since her parents drugged me
with bene drill. But that's the story front of the time. Okay,
hold on, rob it. Your ex girlfriend's parents drugged you
with benetrill, attempted to. I caught it. I was over
at her house and the two sisters, the older sister
had someone over to and they're like, hey, you guys

(08:33):
want to be a shirt. So they bring out beer.
Mine is foaming, and I'm like, thanks, like sample, I'll
take I'll take this one, please, the one that's not foaming.
And fifteen minutes later, the other guy falls asleep on
the couch. So so the wrong the wrong guy got drugged.
Why they're trying to drug you with the bene drill,
not my Who parents want to drug their daughter's boyfriend.

(08:55):
I think it was the daughters, not the parents. The
mom was home and she was there. I did. That's why.
I mean, we're not dating anymore. That would have been
a break your friend. But why are they drugging people?
Maybe they were like they wanted to get me asleep
for some reason. Maybe were they trying to build cosby

(09:15):
you a little bit like that's a good question. Well, okay, um,
I don't really know why because it didn't happen to me,
they said. When it happened to the other guy, they
were like, oh good, we just wanted to go to bed.
So maybe they were tired and we were not tired,
and they were like, hey, it's good, I'm tired. What
has the opposite reaction to some people makes them hyper

(09:36):
not tired? Did not, So why can't you just say
I'm tired, I'd like to go to bed, versus drugging
your date that I wish they would have. I think
there was a hanky pank. I think they wanted to
take advantage of you and they thought, oh, she wanted
to play bend over boyfriend. Oh God, Okay, so Robbie,

(09:57):
you had a very good weekend. This weekend on Tinder,
I did match with how many girls forty? Now? Tell Elvis,
Tell Elvis what your idea was with those forty girls.
I think it's a good idea. So I want to
bring them all into the studio and speed date them
on the air, and then the listeners can call in
and choose who I go on a date with. Afterwards,
we can upload a video of the date to the

(10:17):
website drive web traffic. Hold on, have you considered what
these women want? But do they really want to do?
They really want to date a guy who's going to
do this to them out of the fort That's what
I'm saying. I mean, can you explain to him why
this is probably not a good idea one who has
time for forty dates of yours? But I think, I mean,

(10:40):
I think there's something to it, maybe not necessarily on
the air. I think you should do it on your
own because I encourage this. One time I was at
a bachelorette party and I swiped on a bunch of
people because I wanted dude to meet us at the
end of the night. I invited all of them out.
It's just they had a good time at the bachelorette party,
so that a good time. Yeah, I mean, no one
complained about I thought it was gonna be one on one.
A couple of people did, but then they looked around
and they were like, fine, are you going to tell
these forty girls women that this is a radio thing? Yeah.

(11:04):
The idea would be that I messaged them, Hey, I'm
an intern on a radio show Elvis Duran have you
ever heard of it? And um, well, and then I'd
be like, oh, we're doing this thing where you come
on air and then we go speed dating and would
you be interested? So they would totally. It's not like
this is a good our version of the Bachelorette. That's
what I was thinking, Great, you're a big bachelor. It

(11:26):
is Robbie intern. Robbie's idea of a good idea. I
think it is because I always thought that, even though
we make fun of the batchelor, sometimes I think it's
a good process. I mean, you know, when do you
when does anybody, a man or a woman get a
chance to have you know, thirty other single people they're
waiting and then they get the chances to rightel the

(11:48):
benetrol I find very such. I think, I think this
is a good idea. I think, you know, if you
tried that and then maybe narrowed it down to like ten,
and then maybe you bring ten in. I think forties
too much. I was thinking even like three would be enough.
Now no, no, you go ahead. And I was just
gonna ask why why would a woman want to date you?
What's your what's your big I would like to think

(12:10):
I'm likable despite how I came across this morning, but
I don't know. I'm tall. That's a plus that okay tall.
I tend to be very caring. I care about other people.
I generally try and help him out, and like say,
I tend to be carried. I kicked a girl out

(12:30):
of your room on a date, You forgot a girl's name,
slept right, Well, okay, that's if you only look at
the one side of the story. That's you can get that.
When you're in a relationship, are you loyal? Yes, I'm
very loyal, and it's a hundred percent. I always try
and make the person I'm dating feel like they're the
only person that matters in the world, even though you

(12:51):
don't mean it. You know. What you said was I
want to make them feel as if I No, I
was going to say, I think he could be caring.
Like I can kind of see it because the day
we were talking about donuts and I said, there's really
only one kind I like. He wandered over and tried
to find the one I liked and was like waving
it from the window, like, Oh, I got it. It's nice. Yeah,
maybe nice. Maybe No, I think you are nice. I

(13:13):
just thank you. I think you're a magnet for problems
in trouble. Maybe that's another good thing, though, is that
I'm outgoing so people I find myself in these situations
good stories. That's another thing. Can I ask why you
learned sign language? UM? I just when I went into college,
I failed my Spanish placement test, so I needed to
pick a new language. All the languages met four times

(13:33):
a week. Sign language met two times a week. And
what do you know, it's my favorite thing in the world.
I'm going to Galu Debt University in the fall to
study abroad. Really, yes, where are you going to? Um?
It's Galu Debt. It's the National uh University for Death
and Heart of hearing individuals where Oh sorry, Washington, d C.
Maybe you could be the official signer for our show

(13:54):
so that if you it's radio, I don't know. It
is a little ironic. It's quite a visual. My two
passions are radio and sign language. So now that you
get you're getting to know and turn Robbie a little better.
I mean he really, it truly is an odd coirk
of nature. I think fits into our family extremely well.

(14:19):
Obviously around the room he wote, yes, what about I
love you Robbie? Okay, what about you? By yeah you
in the roundhead. He's definitely cool, dude, I think it's
pretty okay. Everybody who went off on you on Facebook,
I feel terrible. Well, no, I I see why, because
we know how audiences react and respond. I mean when

(14:40):
you said that, I knew there would be problems. Yeah,
that's that's I I apologize that anybody I offended I
didn't mean to, and of course you did. Thanks so
much for accepting me. Well you're accepted. I mean, we
don't agree with everything you say, but that's what like
and turn Robbie Everyone fifteen minute Morning Show off
