not that'll that'll gets in trouble just to do that.
It won't get you in trouble because you don't do it,
and they'll be like, oh Gregg t ha ha ha.
But at the end of the day, you know not
to do that. Yeah, I know, I just don't. And
then I'm I'm the gatekeeper. I know. What is the
big deal? People don't get paid? All right, I'm not
(00:24):
gonna work around Okay, you know what I mean. Alright,
it just makes okay three to one, Ladies and gentlemen,
it's the fifteen minute morning show podcast. And yep, you
heard my voice. I'm Greg t. So this is what
you're gonna get me and Garrett buckle up. What would
you talk about on your on your podcast show? Already? So,
(00:54):
ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard. It is a Wednesday right
now for us, it's a Wednesday morning. I don't know
when you're listening to. It could be a Wednesday morning,
afternoon evening. Heck, it could be a Thursday for you.
It could be Valentine's Day, right Garrett. Yeah, or it
could be next Valentine's Day and a year has passed
and you're finally getting to listen to this year's podcast.
At present time, though, it is a Wednesday, so presently
(01:17):
it is Wednesday, which means, you know, I can't go
in reverse. So it's a Wednesday, and it is January
the February, so it cannot be February twelve, That's all
I do know. You can go in reverse anyway. Um,
So when you're right, we have maybe technology a year
from now, who knows what can happen because technology moves
(01:37):
so quickly these days. Um, you know, you know this
is again well, as we always say, when Elvis Duran
and the rest of the Morning show has a guest
that they are pre recording in some fashion, you get
Greg t and Garrett, you get the B team, right, Yeah,
you get a B team, that's right. Um, And it
just is what it is. I do you know the
(02:00):
coach hasn't really decided to put us in. Yeah. My
role is my role in the show is that I'm
not I'm not necessary to be in on every interview.
My role is only there if they need somebody to
be the clown for the morning for the interview if
they need somebody to do kind of some kind of stunt, right,
you know, so with this you know too much cherries. Yeah,
(02:22):
and so what this interview that they're doing with this celebrity,
which I can't tell you about right now because when
we you know, play back, it'll sound like it's real,
like it's happening in real time, YadA, YadA. I am
not needed, so I'm needed to do this. That's I mean,
i'd be honest. Right. So it is the day before
Valentine's Day, and uh, I mean you just can't help
avoiding it. I know that there's people that are listening
(02:43):
right now that are going, oh, I don't want to
hear about Valentine's Day for whatever reason. Now, now, are
you one of those types of people that believes that
it is a quote unquote Hallmark holiday? It is, it is,
it is, And but yet you fully invest, you full
jump into the deep end as if you created Valentine's Day.
That is correct. So even though I realize that it's
(03:06):
a moneymaker and then it's just you know there for
whatever Hallmark reasons, Um, I I still buy into it.
It's okay for me. Another thing like that, like I like,
I buy into is when it becomes the summer blockbuster movies.
You know, it's always that time of year, right around
Memorial Day weekend where they start to ramp up, and
a lot of these movies are like blast offs and craziness,
(03:30):
and they ramp up those kind of crazy movies you know,
UM action packed, um superhero type movies. It doesn't bother me.
I know that these movies are most likely not going
to win any kind of you know, oscars, Yet I
get caught up in it. I'm willing to go see
those kind of movies because I enjoyed that time of year.
I enjoy You're of the moment. I am of the moment.
(03:53):
Lights on the house for Christmas, the Manora in the
window for Hanakah. I just enjoy it. It's what we do.
Labor Day weekend, big barbecue ending this summer, Memorial Day weekend,
big barbecue during this summer. I'm in, Thank you, Siri.
I'm in on the fourth of July. Fireworks all right,
(04:14):
all in you You go all out for every female
in your life that you have any type of connection to. Yeah,
I I do try. I um, you know what I'll
be honest with the Garrett. You know, growing up for
me at the greg T House was not the best.
I think we've been down that road. Everybody wants to
(04:34):
stop me when we go down there, and it's that
I probably have to be the funniest thing ever. I
really do that door and they're like like, okay, let's
move on. Let's move on. Not that you know, we
could talk about, you know how your mom. You know,
it was not the nice It was not the nicest
of of situations to grow up. This is this is
me trying to be your friend and like warning you
(04:55):
from from going in to have you know, that ninth
drink you know, and don't and don't tie it back
into into the story that you're telling. Okay, then I'll
just be brief and I'll just say that my my
biological you can't say my biological dad was not so nice.
(05:16):
He didn't really do much for my mother on Valentine.
So you find it, being your therapist that I have
now become over the years, you find it that you
try to make up for it, and you do it,
and you do it very well. And I don't know
if it's because I fell in love with romantic movies.
I don't know if um I just saw what went
(05:37):
on and how I wanted to change things. I don't
know what it is, but there's something in me that
wants to just wrap my arms around, you know, as
many people as I possibly kind of Valentine's Day and
say I love you. I am a big mush but
I am I cut off. I have to cut it
off to the women in my life. It gets expensive.
It does get expensive. It does, and it does get
(05:59):
me angry because it does get slightly more expensive than
I'm used to in every single year anything. It's inflation.
It's inflation, and you have to get the flowers and
the chocolate. You yeah, you got chocolates, you get toys,
cards or whatever. But for you, where's the line of like, Okay,
I'm not I'm not buying that yet. You haven't hit
(06:21):
the line, I guess. I mean, like to you, what
do you say? You know what? That's too extreme for
me to do on Valentine's Well, when I was first
dating my wife Trish, I used to go out and
get it, like something from Tiffany's or something, or a
nice jewelry. But that I've kind of done away with
because she has even said this is unnecessary, like she's
not looking for that on Valentine's Day. You know, she's
(06:42):
been good about saying to me. You know what, I
honestly if we can go to dinner, that's great. If
we can't even do that, if we can get lunch together,
that would be nice. So I do appreciate that in
a simple card. Do you find it? Do you find
it romantic? So Trish, great tea. Let's go out to
do lunch. You go to lunch, We'll go to like Panera.
(07:04):
Let's just say you go to an Italian restaurant. We
won't even do that. No no, no no, no, not a
fancy one, a pizzeria. Okay, do that. This is my
problem with Valentine's Day where I feel people are trying
to take advantage of it, where they tried to make
the pizza look like a heart, and they make it
like it's a It's this this coming of age never
before created thing. It's a normal pizza. You shape it
(07:26):
in the shape of a heart. Doesn't take that long
to do. I saw a company that was get your
final orders in two days before. Please, you're not making
pizza takes twenty minutes. I understand they just don't want
because they're making the dough already. But you shape the dough.
You shape the dough when it's there, it's not so
you're pre making a two day old pizza. I would
buy it. You would buy that, that's right. I'm in
(07:47):
on that. I'm in on any you would buy the
heart pizza. Hear anything heart related and red, You're in.
I want to wear red underwear. I want to have
red socks on. I want to buy heart shaped pizza.
You do look like I'm was romantic, maybe cube I listen.
I I'm a hopeless romantic and it's just who I am.
And it maybe from my upbringing that I always just
(08:10):
felt that my mom deserved better, that my sister deserved more.
I'm sorry, I have two sisters. That my sisters deserved more.
Um I just felt that way, So I do listen.
When before my sister had a husband and I used
to I used to buy her flowers at Paul Right.
I used to buy her flowers, and then even when
(08:32):
she had the boyfriend who was now her husband, I
still built her flowers. No, he never said anything, but
actually never said anything that he was mad, But it
was Trish that said something. Trish said, I I think
it's getting a little bit awkward that you're buying your
sister flowers on Valentine's Day. I just wanted to make
sure that right. Yeah, I guess I just wanted to
make sure it's done right. I'm curious, sisters, do you
(08:53):
have two sisters? You don't do it for your sisters really,
but like like, okay, Brittany, your sister Britton, it was
the Valentine. Valentine's Day is more on the romantic side,
and not to make it incestual of sorts, but it's
more it's more for you know, you know, parents to
their kids, couples to their significant other. The line then
(09:15):
starts to get blurred after that, where it's just like
what about your mom? You don't get your mom flowers? No, no,
not no Grandma You'll get grandma flowers. Really, like, who's
the cut off on your list of family? Like what's
the what's the obviously Trish and the girls the top
that your mom? Who would you say is the bottom
of the list? Where's the cut off? Who's the person
(09:37):
that could have made the list if it was one
more person? You were just my aunts, Like, I don't
that's female cousins because great to you said, you're you're
a hopeless romantic and I'm also the only boy in
the whole family, so surrounded by girls, but but more
so within your own family, for the for Trish and
the girl. You know, my cousins are girls, your two daughters. Um,
(09:59):
do you messages inside the card? I don't not like that. No,
you don't get meaningful and to man, I let the
card you do the talking. I try to just sign
your name. I don't I write like happy Valentine's Day,
I hope you enjoy your day, something like that. But
I I now actually put more emphasis in the card.
I try to find the right card that says the
(10:21):
right thing. You get all the ones like I rather
because xo xo xo, all that stuff. I do all
of that. Do you underline like certain words to emphasize,
like you know, love and some passion? Okay, Well, what
I'll do is sometimes give me I will cross out
a word sometimes and I'll write my own word in there.
(10:41):
I will also, Um, what else will I do? I
will underline some things, maybe exclamation, I'll do a dot
dot dot and I'll write my own little thing next
to it, so you will start writing a little bit
of a novel in there. I'll write a little something
like that. Yeah, see, I I took you for the
the the sweet but funny card out the Oh. So
(11:02):
you do multiple cards? How many cards do you buy?
It depends if there have been times where I've been
caught between two cards and I don't know what to get,
and I'll get them. But it's easy to buy two cards.
But then you get to the cash register and the
person targets like that will be forty five dollars for
two cards. That's a good point that the price of
cards have gone up. I can't believe it. I think
(11:23):
yesterday I bought a card. I don't know, maybe it
was like seven dollars almost close to eight bucks for
our card, and I'm thinking this is crazy. But it
was a big card. It was a little larger. You
opening up, something pops out of it. So I'm like,
I'll get that. I like that. I even like the
cards that are like those you ever seen those mega cars,
the ones that are the size of you. Yeah, they're
like they're like maybe like two and a half to
(11:44):
three feet tall. Like, I love doing that, but that's
a way you're not gonna keep that forever. Well, I
have one that church got me still. How long have
you have it? On the I keep them. I don't
keep all my cards. How long would you say that
that card's been sitting there? Maybe years? Got three years? Years?
Three years? Yeah, just been collecting dust. Do you go
back and look at it? No? No, no, I'm a
(12:04):
hopeless romantic. There's nothing I can do about it. I
really contrary to what the morning show fans hear us
do on the air, we said, you've been the hopeless romantic? Yeah?
Greg T? Who Greg T? And I hate teking about
it myself in the third person, but you do sound
a little conceited. You want me to talk about you.
I could talk about you, for T is really a
(12:26):
guy that wait, what do you want to say? Is
good to his girlfriends. I never hurt anybody. I never
heard any girl, never let him down, and never cheat
on any girlfriend of mine. I never did. I was
always the one that got broken up with all right,
let me translate the trich didn't break up with me,
Well that's what happened. Didn't break up with this. While
we're married in essence, great, great guy? What about yourself?
Do we make you out to be the right kind
(12:47):
of person on the air that you are in real life?
I believe you are all right. So are you hopeless
from Well? You gotta be because you met your wife
like in high school, didn't you. We're friends in high school, right,
so you stayed with her this whole entire time? Well no,
I mean in college came in the way and dated
other girls. Of course, I've never heard you tell me
that you dated other girls in college. I always thought
it was you and Ali forever, like you guys have
(13:08):
been there together forever. Really, I didn't know that did
she dated other guys? Yes? She did. There was four
years between high school and college. How many times did
you guys date other people in four in four years?
I don't know, probably if you doesn't really, But you
always knew it was about all about Ali, and Ali
always knew it was all about you know, it wasn't
it wasn't. See this is you taking your your hopeless
romantic love rom coms and and and crafting my life.
(13:31):
You know I got you know, I got broken up
with on Valentine's Day. Nope, Ria Castagliola. So Ria, if
you're listening right now, if you know her real name
is Maria, But every case, why were you asking? If
you know you do know? You're still friends with her
on Facebook? And I feel there's nothing wrong with being
friends with all your exes on faceboo anything. But you
know where she lives? Of course, and now now that
(13:54):
she's married with kids, I don't know where she lives.
She's the who's the one that got divorced? Oh, Kim,
Kim just got the worse. Yeah, I know where kid lives. Yeah,
kid just got divorced. All right, I have to ask
broke my heart? She worked at McDonald's. Broke my heart?
Did you get broken up at McDonald's. Um? No, she
broke up with me over the phone. Did you have
to go back to work with her at McDonald's. No,
I didn't work at McDonald's. She I worked at the
(14:16):
gas station across the street from the McDonald's. So that's
where you would go and brave to me through the
through the drive through window. Sure she was waving at
you and not calling the next car over. She'd be like,
you know, I'm like, hey, what's up, Nina? Yeah? So
I would go over get a free soda all right,
only because I have to ask for the records left.
Do you have any of your Valentine's gifts from your
ex girlfriends? No? I have pictures of my ex girlfriends
(14:38):
still in boxes, of me and of me and them
like hugging in whatever. But I don't have anything else. No,
I have something saved. I would assumed you would have
kept something from Valentine's Day asked from those girlfriends. You
know that there was one girlfriend of my next girlfriend
of mine who she till today she still says I
made not me, that she made a mistake. She has
(14:59):
been here, the one that got away. Yep I. She
has been divorced, she has been broken up with and
still today she says, I I should have just stayed
with you, and she did not, and she misses out
big time. We've gotten all mushy. But you know what
you're trending on Twitter right now? Tell me a fart cannon.
A fart cannon. Four year old when on a radio
(15:19):
in Ottawa with his mom because it was a snow day,
and explained what a fart cannon is. And the world
wants to know what a fart Cannon is Wow, well
I had before this. I just came out of the bathroom.
That's a disaster. It's somewhat debate. Fifteen minute morning show
