And there's cake. There's cake. Is that what's going on?
It's Josh's Josh's birthday cake. Wait a second, how am

And here comes Danielle with cake. I'm gonna get some cake.
Oh no, you're leaving to get I'm gonna go get cake.
That's not fair, you guys, get cake. Start the show.
(01:49):
We're getting cake hungriest anyway, Mike is off. Okay, Well,
what Danielle was saying, it's all translate for you. Sometimes
I'm taking the best cakes are at just like the
supermarket cake. What they make and they leave it. Honestly,
this is just yellow cake with like yellow sponge with
the with the icing on the top. But no fondant.
(02:13):
I don't like fond I removed. They have no idea
what fun Fondante is the covering that they used to
cover up. It's the Plato's It basically makes cakes really beautiful.
They usually put it over we're talking about. Doesn't know
what that is? Okay, finding out? I like hearing. Just clarify,
(02:36):
know it makes fondante. You you put it a sheet
of dough made of ice icing. It's tough. Everyone else
calls it fondant, by the way. Fond Yeah, don't call
it fondante unless you it's shop right cake. I bought
a plain cake. Do you want good fun? Don't? You
don't want fun? Don't? All right? Where are we? My gosh,
(02:57):
we're already two minutes in and we haven't done anything's
talking about cake. So here we are. It's Tuesday, as
we do this fifteen minute morning show podcast, and we're
back from a three day weekend. Everyone have a good
time out. Let's talk about Gandhi. Now, Gandhi says, you
know she she signed on the dotted line. She leased
an apartment here in the area, and so she wanted
to go back to Boston, wrap things up, get things ready.
(03:20):
But apparently she went and drank so much she forgot
why she went to Boston. Had a little too. What's
fun and I regret nothing. Okay, she wrap things up,
but we want to talk about I don't care air
it out. The people that I know are not listening
right now, I hope right, So you did you? Is
this an old flame? No, this is a I made giant,
(03:43):
giant error and judgment thing. I've known him for a
very long time and he's awesome. Um, but we first
started hanging out at my going away party, so that
was like our first night kicking it together. So now
there's like this weird I left, but I'm back. But
I left, and now he wants to come to New
York and I'm like, so he's enough, boy, what do
you know? He's cool. That's the best boyfriend to have distance.
I'm with you exactly, just it's casual, just hang out.
(04:07):
You just don't want heartache, and heartache comes from when
you fall in love and they're so far away. Something
you can do about it. But this is it's kind
of is it funny how nothing really happened until after
you moved, Like literally, at my going away party, we
ended up hanging out that night, Nothing untoward happened. We
were it was very innocent and fun. But then it's like, oh,
what did we just do? And his best friends very
(04:28):
mad at me, and he has like this really thick
Boston accent. He's like, what the funk made? Of course,
of course you did this your last day year. What
the fund are you doing? It sound like, yeah, come
on quick aside factory, that's what the guy said. So
so isn't it funny how there's a friend involved? He
(04:50):
was like yelling at you for getting intimate with his friend,
considering you know, not considering, well, that's a decision you
two made. Has nothing to do with a friend, right,
And we deliberately tried to keep it a secret because,
like we have, all of our friends are friends, so
we're like, let's not let these idiots get ahold of
this and get crazy. So we were like, um, chill,
don't don't say anything. So the day after this going
(05:10):
away party, he was with me the entire day, but
he didn't tell anyone where he was so his friends
started freaking out and they're like, where is he? Where
is he? They were all calling him, texting him, and
I told him, answer your phone. He's like, nah, I'm
trying to be cool. Him not answering his phone made
it a way big a deal. Now everybody knows now
that what happens when you disappear people fill in the blanks. Yes,
that's a question. Yes you think that Boston accent. The
(05:31):
best friend guy is jealous that his friend. What's what's
in Boston? Best friends guy is dating my best friend,
so there's no jealousy. It's best friends and best friends friend.
He thinks you're going to trample his best friend's heart.
I mean, would it cool? Um? I don't think he's
even worried about the trampling of his heart. He's just like,
(05:52):
why did you wait? You've known him for so long?
What are you doing? But this is awesome because now
you don't have to see him every weekend, like and
you can be like, yeah, no, I got something with
the show this weekend. This is a great story, though,
can we do this on the regular show of the
Big Show? You're you don't don't have a problem. He's
Mr too cool for school. He doesn't listen to anything
(06:13):
or hear anything, and he already knows that this is happening,
So no secret. Yeah, this happened before with our show.
Remember Lauren. He used to work here. She was friends
with a guy named Matt who worked down the hall
another radio station. He got a job in Boston in Washington,
d C. She got a job in Boston. They had
never even gone out, like for dinner. Once they were
two cities, multiple states apart, they started talking on the
(06:36):
phone about being lonely in a new town. They hooked up.
They're married with a kid now, and uh, they never
did anything when they worked here together. I think that's
what it takes. Well, that's a good thing. Yeah. I
think sometimes like you're hanging out with the person and
you're friends with the person, and then once they're away
from you, you've realized, oh ship, I got feelings for
that person. Don't see the Ford and you freaked me out. Okay,
(06:58):
So Gandhi is saying she doesn't have the Etford, She
doesn't have the feelings for the guy. Does baby feelings
for him? I mean he definitely have a crush, Like
he's like, can we refer to him as Mr six
one seven, yeah, six, he got a piece of mass
I get that. But were you? Were you more into
him because you knew the next day you out of there? No,
(07:20):
I've always thought he was really cool. He's very smart,
he's really funny. It was just too close. Does have tattoos.
No tattoos, which is weird because Gandhi usually falls for
the heavily tattooed. Tatted from the neck down is usually
where I go. He doesn't have any picture. Where the picture?
I don't have any pictures. Actually, he's on no social media.
I love these. That guy is perfect. Hold s. You
(07:45):
think he's ugly, don't you know? I didn't say that.
I usually no. No No. My theory is that people who
are not on any form of social media at this
stage of the game have something to hot. Now. I
think they're smart. Doesn't care, it doesn't it's just not
a priority. My friends who are not on social media,
they have the best lives ever. They don't worry about
any of it. I go, oh, I gotta stop and
post this. She goes, why cares have fun? She doesn't
(08:09):
have her phone out at the concert. She's just having
a grand all time. Nothing wrong with that. Nope, No,
he's very he he lives in the moment. Guys like
Scary lived through social media. As a matter of fact,
I'm not trying to be mean or funny or whatever.
It's kind of true. Scary's philosophy is if it can't
be posted, then why do it? Before social media? He
(08:33):
used to take pictures then walk around and show his
camera to people. Look, look at this picture. The people
on a Monday's see my post here, I'll show it
to you. Well, usually people say picks or it didn't happen.
I don't know. That's the age I'm for some reason,
that's what my Let's go back to what you almost said.
(08:57):
That's just the age of the people I hang up with.
Well know, that's what people. Unfortunately, people the people that
are actually my age in years, they're not into social
media as much. But I have a lot of But
my friends who are'm closer with happen to be younger
than I do, so I follow their circle. Let just
(09:20):
talk about how you use social media. No one else,
no one else, just you. Now, don't you think that
you could go enjoy something in life, Let's say a
concert or dinner or walk through a botanical garden. I
don't know without taking a picture and posting it. I
did that time when I was forced to at the
Dave Chappelle concert when he was played fort to Radio
(09:40):
City Music. I went to one of those. They made
me lock up my phone. I was so upset. If
you get a whole two around the country in these
pouches and they take them away from me, I'm gonna
take it a step further. Can you imagine scary going
to an event and not even taking a picture of it.
Your phone doesn't even know you've been there. Can you
imagine you see not even one picture? Don't you don't
(10:02):
you believe if you go do something that you really love.
Let's say you walk through a zoo. Okay, I love zoos,
good zoos, and I enjoy the zoo. I thoroughly enjoy.
I don't take one photograph, I don't post anything. I
don't even say on Twitter I'm there. I just enjoy
it for me, my heart, my soul. And then when
I'm done, I walk out and I have all the
memories of everything I saw crystal Clear without a phone
(10:24):
in my hand. I did this last night with the
with the circus. I was at the circus, and it
would have been actually funny because it was a Spanish
circus and I understand half of what was being said.
But I had such a great time. But I said,
I'm here with my family, I'm here with my friends.
I'm not even taking my phone out. I didn't take
one picture, took one picture of all of us as
a group. Other than that, nothing, there's not one bit.
(10:47):
And everyone had their phones. I got to get the
boomerang of the people going back from a Canada. I
don't have that. But it didn't happen. It happened, It
just didn't happen. Then he burst out of the Okay, See,
it just doesn't make sense to put such priority on reporting.
(11:07):
You might as well go work for a news agency
because you love reporting. When I go to a concert
and I see somebody holding their phone up, when you
used to go to a concert, you're somebody looking at
the stage seeing somebody performing, they have a smile on
their face, they'd be singing along. When somebody's looking at
their screen, they have this blank expression and it's so sad.
If I was performing on stage, I'd like, no fucking
phones there are there are performers that have no phone.
(11:30):
I would that would if I was a performer none.
What's what's weird about that is you have the show
going on, and I know you want to record it
for posterity or whatever. You'll never but you're right. First
of all, you're not watching the event happen. You're watching
it on a TV screen, like watching YouTube video usually
from angle. And what I realized is, unless you have
front row center, when you see everyone else filming it,
(11:51):
let them film it. You'll get the video on YouTube later.
Let them do the work. Also, I learned this on vacation.
Never film fireworks. You're never we're gonna watch fireworks again.
Everybody has the cameras. I'm filming fire every fireworks are
the same. You're never gonna go I really want to see.
That's a very good point for screen. When we travel.
If I go to Paris, we go to the Eiffel Tower.
(12:13):
I don't mean, yeah, I don't take a picture of
the Eiffel Tower because I know it can go to
Google and find someone who took a much better pature
in the picture. Now here's the thing. You go to
these events, you take these pictures, and you you you
made this point, you never look at them ever again.
And then let's say something happens, your cloud goes down,
you lose all the pictures. What what did you really
(12:33):
lose there? To me, I didn't lose anything. But I
guess what goes through my head is in the moment,
I want people to see this awesome experience in front
of me, So I want to be able to share
that with them. It's it's actually a hand share it
with them. But if something you hang out with him,
you can describe it to them. Well there's that, But
why not being in the moment and saying, here's what's
(12:55):
going on right now, and this is a cool thing. Look,
I do it too scary, I'm not. I'm not saying.
I will say to Nate's point. Earlier last week, when
I was at Global Citizens Festival, I thought I was
in you know, had pretty decent viewing, right I was
in the center and towards the back, I guess, and
Cardi B went on. As soon as she went on,
all the phones went up in the air except mine,
(13:16):
and I'm like, I'm looking at the stage and I'm like,
I can't see the stage because everyone's phones were in
the way and just one thing exactly what Brownie was saying.
The people's looks on their faces were like blank, They're
just looking at the concert to the phone. I'm like,
isn't this terrible that this moment is being wasted. I'm
actually looking at her on stage and these people are
(13:36):
looking at her through a viewfinder on their phone. What's
worse is when people in the back and when we
go to the zone jingle Ball, you'll look people film
the screens because they're too far away to film the
stage television set. They're filming the video screen. You don't
watch it, and no one else wants and it's blorry
and faded and washed, washed out. What is the poor post?
I will tell you that when social media first started
(13:59):
to evolve, it would be, oh my gosh, let's take
our phone so we can get a picture of this.
That was like, okay, good thinking. But do you know
the night Alexander walking out the door to go have lunch,
she said, you know, I'm gonna leave my phone at
home and he made the announcement. It wasn't like he
just left it there. It was like and then that
(14:21):
was cool, you know, he I said, I'll bring mine
in case we have an emergency nine one one call
we have to make you know whatever. And it was,
but it was like the exception to the rule leaving
your phone and here his leg is shaking right now,
look at that. That was very very manly and very
I'm sorry, that was very manly. That was very brave
of him. Scary Scarce drove into the phone home. Didn't
(14:43):
you once drive into the city through the tunnel, realized
you forgot your phone, went back out through the tunnel
all the way back to his house to get his
phone to come back through the tunnel. It happened three
times in my life. But you know what's funny with
with the youth to like, My son is thirteen. He
doesn't have any social on media. Now he's probably gonna
get Instagram. That will be the first thing. I let
happy that they all want snapchat. So I said to him,
(15:05):
what the hell do you want snapchat for? Apparently they
don't text each other anymore. Kids, They don't even like
they send the snap I said to him, let me ask,
I said, how about you do you like the girl?
You send her a text message and a picture? Why
do you got to snap it to her? He goes,
I don't know, that's just the way we do it.
I go, that's freaking stupid. And you don't need snapchat.
(15:25):
You get you get her, Like, what do you call
a telegram? Like really, that's less personable than even a
textat Like with snapchat though, you can tell when somebody
read it, You can tell if somebody screenshot something, and
you can send them like a het girl, how you
doing a video? Stupid? When is this ship going away?
Like this is your son sending egg plant through snap plants,
(15:49):
you'd be in a lot of trouble something. I don't
like the snapag, just as shifty eight minute Morning Show

on a Monday's see my post here, I'll show it
to you. Well, usually people say picks or it didn't happen.
I don't know. That's the age I'm for some reason,
that's what my Let's go back to what you almost said.
(08:57):
That's just the age of the people I hang up with.
Well know, that's what people. Unfortunately, people the people that
are actually my age in years, they're not into social
media as much. But I have a lot of But
my friends who are'm closer with happen to be younger
than I do, so I follow their circle. Let just
(09:20):
talk about how you use social media. No one else,
no one else, just you. Now, don't you think that
you could go enjoy something in life, Let's say a
concert or dinner or walk through a botanical garden. I
don't know without taking a picture and posting it. I
did that time when I was forced to at the
Dave Chappelle concert when he was played fort to Radio
(09:40):
City Music. I went to one of those. They made
me lock up my phone. I was so upset. If
you get a whole two around the country in these
pouches and they take them away from me, I'm gonna
take it a step further. Can you imagine scary going
to an event and not even taking a picture of it.
Your phone doesn't even know you've been there. Can you
imagine you see not even one picture? Don't you don't
(10:02):
you believe if you go do something that you really love.
Let's say you walk through a zoo. Okay, I love zoos,
good zoos, and I enjoy the zoo. I thoroughly enjoy.
I don't take one photograph, I don't post anything. I
don't even say on Twitter I'm there. I just enjoy
it for me, my heart, my soul. And then when
I'm done, I walk out and I have all the
memories of everything I saw crystal Clear without a phone
(10:24):
in my hand. I did this last night with the
with the circus. I was at the circus, and it
would have been actually funny because it was a Spanish
circus and I understand half of what was being said.
But I had such a great time. But I said,
I'm here with my family, I'm here with my friends.
I'm not even taking my phone out. I didn't take
one picture, took one picture of all of us as
a group. Other than that, nothing, there's not one bit.
(10:47):
And everyone had their phones. I got to get the
boomerang of the people going back from a Canada. I
don't have that. But it didn't happen. It happened, It
just didn't happen. Then he burst out of the Okay, See,
it just doesn't make sense to put such priority on reporting.
(11:07):
You might as well go work for a news agency
because you love reporting. When I go to a concert
and I see somebody holding their phone up, when you
used to go to a concert, you're somebody looking at
the stage seeing somebody performing, they have a smile on
their face, they'd be singing along. When somebody's looking at
their screen, they have this blank expression and it's so sad.
If I was performing on stage, I'd like, no fucking
phones there are there are performers that have no phone.
(11:30):
I would that would if I was a performer none.
What's what's weird about that is you have the show
going on, and I know you want to record it
for posterity or whatever. You'll never but you're right. First
of all, you're not watching the event happen. You're watching
it on a TV screen, like watching YouTube video usually
from angle. And what I realized is, unless you have
front row center, when you see everyone else filming it,
(11:51):
let them film it. You'll get the video on YouTube later.
Let them do the work. Also, I learned this on vacation.
Never film fireworks. You're never we're gonna watch fireworks again.
Everybody has the cameras. I'm filming fire every fireworks are
the same. You're never gonna go I really want to see.
That's a very good point for screen. When we travel.
If I go to Paris, we go to the Eiffel Tower.
(12:13):
I don't mean, yeah, I don't take a picture of
the Eiffel Tower because I know it can go to
Google and find someone who took a much better pature
in the picture. Now here's the thing. You go to
these events, you take these pictures, and you you you
made this point, you never look at them ever again.
And then let's say something happens, your cloud goes down,
you lose all the pictures. What what did you really
(12:33):
lose there? To me, I didn't lose anything. But I
guess what goes through my head is in the moment,
I want people to see this awesome experience in front
of me, So I want to be able to share
that with them. It's it's actually a hand share it
with them. But if something you hang out with him,
you can describe it to them. Well there's that, But
why not being in the moment and saying, here's what's
(12:55):
going on right now, and this is a cool thing. Look,
I do it too scary, I'm not. I'm not saying.
I will say to Nate's point. Earlier last week, when
I was at Global Citizens Festival, I thought I was
in you know, had pretty decent viewing, right I was
in the center and towards the back, I guess, and
Cardi B went on. As soon as she went on,
all the phones went up in the air except mine,
(13:16):
and I'm like, I'm looking at the stage and I'm like,
I can't see the stage because everyone's phones were in
the way and just one thing exactly what Brownie was saying.
The people's looks on their faces were like blank, They're
just looking at the concert to the phone. I'm like,
isn't this terrible that this moment is being wasted. I'm
actually looking at her on stage and these people are
(13:36):
looking at her through a viewfinder on their phone. What's
worse is when people in the back and when we
go to the zone jingle Ball, you'll look people film
the screens because they're too far away to film the
stage television set. They're filming the video screen. You don't
watch it, and no one else wants and it's blorry
and faded and washed, washed out. What is the poor post?
I will tell you that when social media first started
(13:59):
to evolve, it would be, oh my gosh, let's take
our phone so we can get a picture of this.
That was like, okay, good thinking. But do you know
the night Alexander walking out the door to go have lunch,
she said, you know, I'm gonna leave my phone at
home and he made the announcement. It wasn't like he
just left it there. It was like and then that
(14:21):
was cool, you know, he I said, I'll bring mine
in case we have an emergency nine one one call
we have to make you know whatever. And it was,
but it was like the exception to the rule leaving
your phone and here his leg is shaking right now,
look at that. That was very very manly and very
I'm sorry, that was very manly. That was very brave
of him. Scary Scarce drove into the phone home. Didn't
(14:43):
you once drive into the city through the tunnel, realized
you forgot your phone, went back out through the tunnel
all the way back to his house to get his
phone to come back through the tunnel. It happened three
times in my life. But you know what's funny with
with the youth to like, My son is thirteen. He
doesn't have any social on media. Now he's probably gonna
get Instagram. That will be the first thing. I let
happy that they all want snapchat. So I said to him,
(15:05):
what the hell do you want snapchat for? Apparently they
don't text each other anymore. Kids, They don't even like
they send the snap I said to him, let me ask,
I said, how about you do you like the girl?
You send her a text message and a picture? Why
do you got to snap it to her? He goes,
I don't know, that's just the way we do it.
I go, that's freaking stupid. And you don't need snapchat.
(15:25):
You get you get her, Like, what do you call
a telegram? Like really, that's less personable than even a
textat Like with snapchat though, you can tell when somebody
read it, You can tell if somebody screenshot something, and
you can send them like a het girl, how you
doing a video? Stupid? When is this ship going away?
Like this is your son sending egg plant through snap plants,
(15:49):
you'd be in a lot of trouble something. I don't
like the snapag, just as shifty eight minute Morning Show
