Speaker 1 (00:03):
What would you talk about on your on your podcast
firm Elvis Represents Show. All right, we're gonna play a
special game on the fifteen minute Morning Show today. I
love games. Why is Elvis an asshole? Okay, so here
we go first. Okay, I want everyone to like say

(00:25):
that one thing that I do that you consider ass holy,
because that's fine. I don't mind. I'm at a point
in my life we're being an assholes. It's like wearing
a badge of honor. It's like like some women, remember
they're like, oh, you know, you can call me a
bit and I'm not gonna be offended because I am
a bit. Get out of my face, and they were
it like a badge of honor. What are you with me?

(00:47):
What do you mean? Because I don't think you're like that.
I'm gonna okay for instance, fucking akay, no listen, but listen. No.
Where the game today is why is Elvis an asshole?
Then we'll do Daniels an shole? And as tomorrow. All right,
oh no, we may have time. I have three kids.
I gotta go. I'm just saying, Okay. All I'm saying
is I said, we have to hurry up and starts podcast.

(01:08):
I gotta get out of here because I have to
go and do something for me. I have to go
work out. I'm not going to be late for my
workout because you assholes want to sit around and talk
all day. We gotta get going. So I thought that
was one good example of how I'm an asshole. But see,
I don't even want to do this because I don't
see any asshole stuff yet. No, you've seen it. Not
that I would short tempered. Don't make me answer my

(01:32):
own questions an asshole. I feel like my scale of
what an asshole is is so skewed at this point. Different. Okay,
we'll start with scary scary? How am I an asshole? Okay,
going off of the short temperate thing. You don't let
me finish my story. I have a way of conveying
my thoughts. I'm very described, are you done? Very descriptive,

(01:54):
and sometimes you you're very interruptive, and you don't allow
the person to be that person. I mean, I mean
you might. You're very quick, you're very quick minded, you're
very smart, Elvis, and you're very to the point this,
you're very succinct. I am not. I don't operate that way.
So I need just a little bit more leeway, and

(02:17):
I will get to where I need to get to
for you. But okay, I shouldn't have to look at
a calendar to see when you're going to finish your
thought because what you just said, you could have done
the whole thing in in like half the time. My
brain doesn't work, that I know. But our show has
to move forward and we can't wait for you. But
this is no podcast. No no, no, no, no no.
You're talking about in everyday show. Yes, you're abrupt. Okay,

(02:40):
I'm abrupt. Look if let me tell you, Okay, let
me tell you from my point of view, and let
me respond. When you were doing what I do with
a room filled with people of opinions, I'm not talking
about three or four people. We have fifteen people crawling
across the floor in here. If I don't move people forward,
we'll never get done. So what do I do? But

(03:02):
I'm an asshole? So and so you've answered the question,
and that's the only thing that's the only negative for you.
Do you smell steak coming through the Vince's coming the garbage? Dumb?
All right? So I'm an asshole because I'm abrupt, and
I interrupted, all right, I'm good there, I'm good there.
I agree, but I'm an asshole. I said, I was
gonna say the same thing because I described things and
tell stories the same way Scary does. But if you

(03:24):
didn't interrupt and yell at me, I would have finished
the story already. But you start yelling and I go, yeah,
but I was, and I don't get to finish what
I would have finished had you not told me to
shut up and finish. That's one too. You have a
tendency to blame me for things I didn't do because
you think I did it, and I can't. I can't
get out of it and said I didn't do it,
because then you get mad at me for defending myself.

(03:45):
Like yesterday, you were talking about Jonathan on the cruise.
I came in and said, go to the line one.
It's Joel. You called him Jonathan, then yelled at me
for telling you his name was Jonathan, but you messed up,
but I said, no, not Brody. You told me it
was Dathan, and everyone in the room was like, you didn't.
I didn't know what Joel from the cruise. It was
a Jonathan, right, But when Joel online. One was on
the phone. You said I told you his name was Jonathan,

(04:07):
which I didn't. It was a different call I had
nothing to do with. Also, when you yell at me
I get upset, then you yell at me for having
the audacity to be upset. Okay, so uh yeah, and
then sometimes I don't get upset, and you'll go there
you go, you're getting upset. I'm not getting upset. Say
you're getting upset and I'm not getting upset. Can you

(04:29):
imagine working in this other than that? Sorry, I've asked
you to come and call me an asshole and tell
me why. So I'm not going to defend me. So
but by the way, I've like a list for you,
and we won't get to it today. You know what
do that on your other podcasts. Okay, let's talk about
how you bend the truth A lot love to hear this.
Don't keep knowing. We all know you do you do?

(04:50):
You do FIBs sometimes to cover up crap you start
and we all know that. Not brody, And okay, see
that Elvis turns things on other people and that's why
you're never Then he'll go. But I like your boots
can By the way. This is not a fucking Brooklyn
Boys podcast, So shut up, stop yelling at me. I do.

(05:13):
There's a clever thing you just said, though. Elvis is
having a Winman asshole podcast, so you can have an
excuse to yell at you. It's true. Once again, it
smells like a freaking sizzler in here. I'm hung and
you know tomorrow when he this happens, He's gonna go. Yeah,
I know that's why I'm an assholes turned but look

(05:36):
at me. I'm laughing at the fact that I'm an asshole.
I told you that's the whole point of the day.
I'm celebrating my asshole. That sounds like a Saturday night
years years ago. You are harder to work with than
you are now to Yeah, because remember back in the
day when you and I would would yell at each
other about things. Used to did he owned people? Don't

(05:59):
know he One day Kelly Clarkson was coming in and
Elvis and I had the biggest fight and he sent
me home and I thought that was it. I thought, really,
but you know what happened. I used to book the
guests for the show, like years ago, so I would
book guests and then the day the guest was coming,
Elvis would say, I don't want that guest, and I
would say, but you told me to book that guest,
And then Elvis would say, but no, I wouldn't. Why

(06:20):
would I tell you that? So you know what I
started doing having him sign paper. I used to do
that because I didn't want to get yelled anymore. So
I thought back then when we didn't like and then
I guess you learned how to work with people, and
you kind of you calm down. They calmed down and
save it. So I don't think you're I don't know.
I don't think you're left anymore, first of all, and
I appreciate that this is not Why was that an

(06:42):
asshole ten years ago? Secondly, you don't worry about it
anymore because you forgot how to book guests. I gave
that get that job away. But I never take offense
at you being an asshole anymore. I was like, Okay,
well more importantly, go ahead. I have to say, I

(07:03):
would never call you an if you're on medication, because
he's an assa. No, that's not. My medication is for me.
It's it's a good thing. Yeah, this is for me. Um. No,
I don't think that you're an asshole. I think that, um,
I gotta say, you know, there's times so here in
the tristed area. The fact that he can't form a

(07:24):
sentence is how much of an asshole? Here the trusted area.
I have to hold tost a one hour one hour
pre show to your to the big show, and I
deal with myself and Garrett and Danielle, and then sometimes
even the overnight girl will sit in with us and
do as well. And there's a lot of heads in there,
and I sometimes say, wow, I seem to know what

(07:45):
Elvis goes through. And then there's timing issues and things
like that. So I understand the stress and the pressure
that you have to have to deal with everything, but
that's not right. No, no, so I the only thing
that I don't like that you do is um no, no,
not the awkward last You really have full license to

(08:06):
say whatever you want to say. The only thing I
know I think that I don't like is that, um
if I have like like, I would like to give
you a real, a real point sometimes and I get
nervous so that because I know I have to hit
the bull's eye. So then I I flowed my words,
and I started stumbling and then um, I can't get
my the proper sentence at like like right now, Like

(08:27):
I can't really make a sentence because this is this
is why people get you and scary confused, right because
neither one of you have really learned the art of
like getting to the point. I guess I'm more nervous
to talk to you, and I shouldn't be because I
think if I had I'm just like, it's another asshole.
If I had carte Blanche and I could talk to
you and it was marble and I can take my time.
I can make a lot of a lot of a

(08:47):
lot of sentence. You know, I know what. I don't
know what you said, but I love nervous to have
this with Garrett. Garrett, how am I act? But I
can't do like we're picking at straws here like I
I don't really know. I mean, I think for me,
the one thing for me, I would say is after
spending like two hours trying to find stuff to bring

(09:08):
to the show, and uh, you know, I got like
four things that I think are solid and you go,
uh no to four of them. You know what topic
train good finishing? This is garrets. You can't jump on this.
You're right, but that's very good. That's right. And then
and it's left with, okay, we're on the air in
thirty seconds. What else do you have? That's that's the

(09:31):
key one. What else do you got? All right? I
take topic train, I give you ten topics and like, wait,
you already suppose but you do that. I know, but
you should have had that to begin with. You're right,
I see what you're saying. See look, you know. He
works hard every morning to try to get that little

(09:53):
bit of sound that sounds so good, and it's only
a short thing, so he wants it to be right.
So he brings in four things he thinks, right, and
I'm like, the crap. But then you go, what else
do you got nothing? Down? Yeah, I will give you
ted tops for top of training. You go, honestly, the
top of trains crap. He's like, I would do two
topics like, but they're all good, And then you would

(10:13):
look at me and you go, Gregory, they're not good,
and I'm like, and then back of my head, I
go asshole that. That's where he goes back to his desk.
By the way, all of this and now he starts
pounding the boards with one thing and then say go
on for you, like I got interrupt you. Scary is

(10:35):
still making a point from three days ago? What is that? Scary?
Sometimes you hit me, let me, let me clarify, Like
like today, his hand reach around on one of the
knobs and he'll push a button on the console that

(10:56):
makes like three songs play at the same time, and
I'll grab his hand. I'm like, move it away. Like
in all fairness, I work the closest to you physically
than everybody else on the show. The most time, he's
made of Danielle and he hits Scary because he can't
reach That's not true. I do have something I when

(11:19):
Elvis doesn't like a story that like one of us
is doing either news or US and Entertainment, that he
gives you the face and he wants to move on,
and he pushes down to the table and he looks
at you like okay, and I kicked the floor. I'll
be like, could you keep going? You know, you get
so nervous. I start stumbling on everything I'm saying. Now

(11:41):
that I think about it, you will look at me
across the table and be like it's I'm like, okay,
the back of my mind. Sometimes sometimes sometimes I'll write
a note. It's not a joke, it's a note, it's important.
And he doesn't want to look at it because he thinks,
and they'll throw it and then and then and then

(12:03):
he funks up and he'll go, why did somebody tell
me it was not you? Throughout? Oh? Is it okay
to call this podcast? Here's why Elvis is an asshole? Title?
I think that Elvis is right. And I will say
to you, I think in your in all fairs, to
you that you have to be an asshole sometimes to

(12:23):
to coordinate. Well, I'll tell you. When I was growing
up in this business, before I did mornings, I always
wondered why the morning guy was always an asshole? And
esther friend said, why is he an asshole? He said, well,
wait till you do mornings one day. And so now
I do it like I'm a freaking asshole. I don't
think that you really intend to mean to be like that.
Here's what it is. Between six and ten am, the

(12:45):
clock has ticking. I don't have time to stop for
to help anyone to kiss a boo boo. I don't
have time to be nice to anyone when I should
be doing something else that moves the show forward. Everyone
here is here to do their job, and I'm not
discounting that at all, but if you, if you get
in my way, the show stops. And I really have
no choice. I'm doing it. It's self preservation to preserve

(13:06):
the show. Seriously. Nothing. Well, no, okay, So after listening
to all of that, So I've seen the things that
you guys are all talking about when you say I
have seen that happen, but I don't think I've encountered
it personally yet. I think you're an asshole for that,
because you're hiding your real self from me, and I

(13:27):
don't appreciate that. I don't know. Here's the thing, Gandhi.
You've you've been a producer on several different shows for difference,
and you have experience with different personality types and this
and that, and I think you come from a perspective
no offense to brody and scary because they are producers.
You come from a really true war torn producer's point

(13:47):
of view. These guys have had it easy all these years.
We are my friend. We've been told that there are
there are people much more difficult than you are, and
that we are very lucky to have been working with you.
And you don't sound lucky like you sound like you
feel lucky. I'm not saying that I was not lucky.
I'm very lucky to be Can Tomorrow's podcast be Gandhi

(14:10):
doing well? Elvis doesn't do this, but my last boss
did that. Oh man, No, I think that this is
actually really great room. I love it, and I again,
I get all of this, but I think the funniest
part of this was everyone's like, no, I don't have
any reason why you're as you're asking, here's my list.
It's like a CVS received one more thing. If Scary,

(14:31):
Nate and I are all talking to him, he'll go
shut up, Scary, shut up, Brodie. Yes, Nate, and they're
because Nate's hot and they're not. Don't talk about alight anyway.
So look, you know it's about the dad. You know what,
Your dad can be the grumpiest dad in the world,
but you know, at the end of the day he
has your best interested heart and you can laugh around

(14:53):
his coffin at his funeral like you just did me
a fifteen minute morning show. Elf
