Speaker 1 (00:03):
What would you talk about on your on your podcast,
Elvis Presents fifteen minute Morning Show. Everyone say good morning too,
or good afternoon or good evening to Uncle Johnny. Hello, lady,

(00:24):
how are you Uncle Johnny? What are you doing right now?
I'm just sitting and watching TV having a cup of coffee.
When it was him, Bucca. I have a theory. I
think Uncle Johnny's lonely? Are you saying because Uncle Johnny
actually answered the call when he saw it was an
eight hundred number. If I saw an eight hundred number
calling me, I would ignore the hell. I answer all

(00:45):
the phone calls to come in, and they say right
on the screen on my TV screen, and if they're
out of town or unavailable ready, I answer them, all answers,
all calls. Uncle Johnny loves, he loves, he loves to
play with them. Your telemarket is dream I do. I
do like phone taps. We do the phone taps. I
play with them and I see if I can get
him aggravated or crazy, very easy, like he's done that

(01:08):
for us all these years. Okay, so Uncle Johnny, by
the way, and we've caught him giving his social Security
number to people from Japan. Uncle Johnny. We're doing our
fifteen minute morning show podcast. You've never been on. We
haven't been on this in a while, so we wanted
to welcome you back. Oh thank you. Hello everybody. So
let me tell you. Around the table. We have Samantha

(01:30):
Sam is here, producer Sam. I love Sam. They're scary,
you know what's going on, unc scary. There's Dave Brodie. Hello,
we love Dave. Whoa he didn't say I love, he
said we love. We do. And also there's I love
my whole family. The Greg t is here. I love
my Gregg. That's my son. Right. Here's Garrett Garrett is here. Hi, Johnny,

(01:54):
Hey Garrett Garrett. All right. Here's Danielle Hi, and Danielle.
We love Danielle. Right and eight Hi Uncle Johnny. Hey,
straight Ny now everyone. So I was telling them about
our adventure yesterday at Del Frisco's for our huge Eastern lunch.

(02:16):
Oh bacon, Yeah, they had great. That bacon was unbelievable.
But I was talking about the very conservative family that
was sitting at the table next to ours while we
were getting all snots sling and drunk. They were over there,
That's true. They were so quiet and they came in
and they set people all around us. I was wondering
why they would do in that. They were sitting to

(02:37):
quiet people around us, and we were very loud and
we were had We had a great lunch, didn't we
We had the best time, really was. It was like
being with family. Family, So you know, that's that's that's
how I guess. But my favorite is after a couple
of cocktails, we're talking about, you know, being allergic to shellfish,
and the lady was waiting on and said, well, I'll
bring out an EpiPen and Uncle Johnny will tell you

(02:58):
know what he said, What did you say? Once? You
said eppiepen? That's what they called me and junior high
school epi pen exactly, I think it was. That was
to my teenage. Yeah, he was really drunk already anyway.
So the family next it was like, but didn't you
want to go over there and talk to them? When
you see a quiet, conservative family, don't you want to

(03:20):
go over there? And kind of up. I was going
to go over and say hell about everybody there? Yeah, see,
that's what I was gonna ask, because I know Johnny
after a while, when he notices people are quiet, and
he's had a few drinks. He makes he goes over
to them, he makes it, he makes them welcome as
if he's he's the host of the party, no matter
where he is. So I was expecting you to say, say,

(03:40):
Johnny went over to hang out with these people. Well,
the problem with that is sometimes Johnny is overserved and
says things he shouldn't say. What he said that that
time to the table next to ours? What did I say?
I could get It was two couples. They were out
on a date to to uh two couples. Uh. And
in the middle of our he was so drunk he

(04:01):
turns around and says, Ah, do any of you girls
over here eat? I did? Yes, you did? Oh my god.
So we're a table of a people going, how do
you get out of that? Oh my god, Johnny? What
do you think you said? What? Who? You? What did

(04:26):
I Johnny didn't say anything to them? You don't remember
saying that to Day of Walkers, No, I don't not.
It came up with reason why I would say that,
But you did. Hold on, hold on to say, why
are you so appalled? David Brody um because we went
there ten minute morning show is usually full of decorum,

(04:46):
and no, it's not that, you know what. I have
to be honest, it's weird hearing him says, I know,
but we're gonna we're gonna beat it out. We have
to put it. We have to put a beat. It's
like me talking about eating vegetables. Don happened. So it
sounds weird when I talk about it. Why anyway, the
whole the whole point is this. Sometimes when when Uncle
Johnny and Garrett, right, when Uncle Johnny sees someone who's

(05:08):
too quiet, he will go to the ends of the
earth to make them respond and react. I mean, and
you're you're you're actually a master at that, Uncle Johnny. Well,
I'd like doing I'd like meeting people and saying hi
to them, and I enjoy that pushing their buttons. Yeah,
a little. All right, anyway, so we have to let
you go. Now, Dave Brodie's board with the show's all right,

(05:34):
what do you want to talk about? What do you
want to talk about? I just said it was odd
hearing him talk about that. It is odd. That's my point. Well,
that's why I made a face, because it's weird. I
think that's what makes it. That's what makes it a
story show. That's the first time I've ever heard that
phrase in this room, recorded on microphones. Alight, from the
two people with the least amount of experience. You never

(06:01):
even Danielle's got more experiences on her own anyway, Are
you flexible on your own? Alright? Alright, right, okay, So anyway,
So Sam, what was your point? I can't hear you.
I was just asking what they responded with. I wanted
out how they were. They were appalled. And keep in mind,

(06:25):
sometimes when we take Uncle Johnny out, we have to
send him into time out. He gets he gets crazy. Yeah,
I think that's why I love him so much. He
reminds me of my great uncle Frank. Do we all
have one of those in our family? You talk about
your great uncle Frank. The last time I want to
eat with my great uncle Frank. He this is not okay,
But he pinched a waitresses but while she was passing,
and then when she looked at it, he goes high, sweetheart,

(06:45):
how are you seeing anybody like uncle Uncle Frank? Scary?
Don't you have any of those in your family? Deceased
uncle Yes, from my other side of the family, he
was pretty pretty Wait, when you say, your other side
of the family, my father's side. I'm not suppose my
cousins married each other. They're both the same side of
the family members only Jack, my cousin carm So yesterday

(07:08):
I spent with my mom's side of the family and
I was trying to jog my memory. No, no one
of my mom's side of the family does that kind
of stuff. But there is that crazy, wacky uncle from
my father's side of the family. We don't talk about
who's passed on, and he might have been a little
bit inappropriate. Yeah, you see, in my family, I'm the
inappropriate way. Come on, Brodie, don't do you have like

(07:30):
someone from way back when that everyone's like, oh, he
was a little off. Well, I had it. I had
an uncle who never married, and uh, when you went
over his house there were just stacks to the ceiling
of Playboy magazines and we didn't ask any questions. I'm
assuming he read a lot of articles. He loved to read.
He'd love to read. He was married to literature. He
was so when he when he passed away, I inherited
them all. Did she have mountains and stacks of Playboys?

(07:53):
By the way, that's why I read the mountains and
the stacks my garage. But yeah, so he was. He
was a little odd. He would come to the house.
He didn't say dirty things, but he would bring um
canned foods. He would just come to the house and
cants between the fies. Somebody want the family, Daniel, You

(08:14):
have any of those in your family? Yeah? I mean,
but it's funny because I feel like it was my aunts.
Like back in the day, my aunt who lives in Italy,
Like she would come into the house and she would
quit my booms and she would say, you didn't grow
anything yet or something like that. But that was like
years ago. Can you imagine if you were a guy
and she came in and grabbed your thing, She's like, oh,
you really haven't grown yet. She probably would have. Isn't

(08:38):
that weird? They would do it to girls, whe they
wouldn't do it too boys. Thank god. Come on, great tea. Well,
I'm the one in my family and I stand out
like a sore thumb. I say things that are inappropriate
on purpose to make people cringe. I I go over
the top till I till I started argument. Everybody starts
yelling and screaming at each other. And then I have fun,
I laugh and I walk away. It's just who I am.
We have I mean, every family has got like one

(09:00):
or two people that are a little bit odd, and
I mean both of them. Yeah, I guess. I mean
we have others in my family that we definitely talk
about behind their backs, like who's a close second to you?
And you No, I don't want to go there, because
sometimes you can't want. What's the psychological significance of somebody
who wants to come in and just light up a
room like that and just go balls to the wall.

(09:21):
I don't know. I just phone doing it. It seems
kind of simple. I mean, it's someone who just loves reaction.
They like pushing people's button. They don't realize it. And
I have I have cousins who sometimes say the most
inappropriate things that they don't realize it. They're like, oh god,
I remember when I was that fat, Like they don't think.
They're not doing it to make They're not doing it
to button, just like like someone made a comment to

(09:42):
you earlier today that was like you could take it
as offensive, but I'm sure they had no intent on.
If I have I have family members, I think I
would feel comfortable saying that. Often say things you go, oh,
they didn't mean that, they could not have you use
the word intent, and that really is a word that
we forget about in equation trying to figure out if
someone's a good person or a bad person by the
things they say. Someone could say something just God awful.

(10:05):
Maybe they didn't think before they said it. God knows.
I'm guilty of that. That happens to me every minute.
But we all know that Scary has nothing but positive,
great intent. He doesn't mean to hurt anyone's feelings. That's
just scary. I don't bone in my body. Would you
like one? What about you, Garrett? Any weird family member
I got? Uncle Sal. Uncle Sal still believes that he

(10:27):
should have been a part of the real life Sopranos
or the Mafia. He he hangs out with his friends
in front of seven eleven every morning with his lawn chair,
and they drink coffee and they read the newspaper and
they talk about, you know, stuff that's going on around town,
as if he's running the town. But he doesn't, obviously,
But yeah, track suit track super Yeah that you know,

(10:48):
every community in America has those guys. My dad used
to be one of those guys down in McKinney, Texas
of all places. But they never wanted to be, you know,
members of the Sopranos. But they did gather every day
to talk about you know, stuff and down and they
drank coffee and they did it every day. I used
to date those guys. You should date my father guys,
some guys similar to that that get together with their

(11:10):
friends in front of the big shop and they just
kind of talk about the family and exactly I know,
but you know it's yeah, the mobsters and eerie Nate,
you know, my grandfather actually what we called it the
coffee because my grandfather would meet with all these other
old guys that they just sit there drinking coffee for hours. McDonald's. Yeah,

(11:30):
that's nothing. That's the thing though, And maybe that's the
thing in the past. Maybe that's something that we don't
want to let loose of so fast. We should transitioning
to internet trolls now, is it. Yeah, people just go
like used the same hashtag and talk about something. I
don't know if the fact that my aunt Millie was
married to who was married to my uncle Bill ran
with Lucky Luciano, my my Uncle Bill was like, he

(11:51):
used to sit there and he used to hang out
with these these mobsters from the sixties. And I had
no idea that I just found this out recently. I'm like, no,
not an our family, but yes, in our family in
the in the sixties. You know, he passed on in
like the early eighties. Uncle, you better hope. So he
was the one who, according to the government, he did.

(12:13):
We've heard. Hey, so I have to bring Great Tea
to our attention. What's going on there? You? I can
always tell in Great Tea's mind is elsewhere and it
has been all day. No, it has not, Yes, it
has not. All you guys, we all we all know you.
We've worked with you for over twenty two years. We
know you. I'm fine. Once the microphones go on, We're good.

(12:33):
Let's go. There's nothing to matter. There's nothing, no, no,
but no, no, no no, I'm not saying we want to
know what's going on. But isn't it funny how you
can you get to know someone after so many years,
you just you just know them. It's it's I know,
I know Great Tea. It does the awkward laugh. No,
it was funny because there's something whatever I don't even
know how it happened. But Elvis goes, oh, Tea, you're

(12:55):
going into the dark place into place, and I said, no,
I'm fine, but but but I don't don't know what
it is. But I'm a little right right, just yes
or no, there, there's there's something on your mind. You
wear your emotions on your slee Okay, No, I'm okay,
I'm not and I'm not going down that road. But
my point is you get to know people really well
and you just know if how they're doing that. He

(13:18):
really didn't. I'm not the only one anyone else am
I only one who I know too. Here's the the
other thing about Greg t that not a lot of
people know. He wants to tell you, but it doesn't
want but he wants you to ask him what's wrong
for him, not for him to say I can't tell
you then because if you say T, because I'll say
to him the morning, T you all right? Why away? Right?

(13:40):
I'm fine, all right? But may I I don't. I
didn't mean to make this tell all about you. It's
about everyone in this room. We know each other, and
everyone listening has that those people in their lives, you
know them, so well, you know how they're doing, how
they're feeling. And no, no, I didn't mean to turn
this into you when your problem. Like like Brody, I

(14:01):
can tell when he's having something going, and you guys
know when I'm going through something, I make it very clear.
I throw chairs against him. I don't know what's going
on in Tea his life, but I'm looking over at
these notes. He's been writing notes the whole time in
this podcast, and it looks like he's ranking types of bacon.
Are you ranking? Are you? Are you ranking bacon? I

(14:23):
found a very treating article and I wanted to bring
it to your attection, maybe possibly for tomorrow, maybe for tomorrow,
because we're almost out of time. What are you doing?
Why are you ranking bacon? What made it to number one?
You just haven't gotten there yet. There's part of this.
There's an article that I read in Food and Wine
and they came out with America's Best Bacon's. So I

(14:44):
told you, okay, I felt like, what's so funny about bacon? Bacon?
Bacon is a fantastic thing. I wouldn't be laughing at that.
It's a big industry. I'm working out a project, all right.
Tomorrow tomorrow, tomorrow or ranking Bacon. I can't wait. Fifteen
