Speaker 1 (00:02):
What would you talk about on your on your podcast,
Elvis Represents Show Wow. Definitely a dramatic day here at
the show. It all started out with the Great Tea
storming out. We gotta get him on the phone. Can
we talk to him now? He he hurt his foot,
(00:26):
he needed to go to the hospital, but he insisted
on staying here. We're like, no, go, we don't want
you here, we want you to the hospital. He said.
He was asked to leave, and he didn't go to
the hospital. He went home. He was asked to leave.
I asked. I asked him to leave, otherwise he would
have stayed here, limping around all day. That he was
on suspension. Is that true suspension? He told me he
was dramatic suspension. I think we should call him hello. Okay,
(00:52):
well that's just the beginning of clearly you know what
to do, and when you know nobody's gonna listen to it,
you send us to voice that we don't call him
again if he doesn't want to phones off. You know,
he hurt himself and needed to have his foot taken
(01:13):
care of, but rather than doing the right thing, he
wanted to sit stay here and limp around all day
and we got to do a show. We have to
be positive here. I'm texting him, but I don't know. Hey,
why are you ignoring us? I'm not ignoring you guy.
You sent us a voicemail a second ago. I don't
(01:36):
know what happened to my phone. Are you sleeping? You
sound tired to the doctor's yes? Okay, thank you. That
was the whole point. You're not on suspension. Why are
you telling people that? Well, that's certainly how it felt
for sure. What was said was you were limping around
when you clearly needed to go take care of yourself,
and you refused to do it. You're you're gonna stay
(01:57):
here and limp around all morning, and it would have
been so distracting for us, and you needed help. Don't
you understand the importance of going to the doctor when
you hurt yourself. It's just not how it came off,
And I didn't. It wasn't like that at all. It
really wasn't it. Okay, First of all, what happened to
your foot this morning? It was yesterday, around seven o'clock
(02:21):
at night. I was climbing the stairs. My foot slipped,
it slammed on the bottom stair and I heard it
go and then all of a sudden, the pain that
was why wait, what sound did it make again? Okay,
makes that noise? There's a problem. Wait, it didn't sound
like you're achilles. What is it closing? The back of
(02:42):
your achilles didn't go up there? No, that sounds like different. Well, look,
the whole point of us making you leave was to
send you to the hospital. That's where you were supposed
to go. I agree, but I like a soldier here
and I sucked it up. The five am Proved show
was fine. It was fold energy, and I had so
many good things to actually pitch to you today to
(03:05):
have a great time. Like I'm saving I'm saving your
idea about about gas station food. I think that's a
good idea. We're saving that. That's gonna be a really good,
really big one. It really is. But t, if you've
been limping around here all day in pain, that our
our whole day would have turned into that. And we
had to do a show. We had two guests coming in,
we had clients coming in. We needed for you to
(03:25):
focus on getting your foot fixed, which you should have
done last night. Well, I also wanted to set last night.
I couldn't because it's babysitting at the same time, because
had to go do something sound of the kids, but
also I wanted to throw a national party for the
big toe. I think that the big toe gets uh,
you know, underestimated, and I think that I have now
noticed how important our big toe is and it doesn't
(03:48):
get enough credit. You can't do anything with the big toe.
It's hard to try. Are you already on some sort
of medication. You sound like you're on medication. No, it's true.
Think about it. You can. It's hard to dry without
the big toe. It's hard to stand straight without the
big toe, can't run without it. Can someone explain to
him what we're trying to talk about. When are you
going to go to the hospital. I'm going to go
(04:11):
to a little doctor in a little bit clinic, a
little doctor. It's not it's the weird thing is that
it's not even really that that black and blue, and
what do they get away? Okay, well, last time I checked,
you didn't go to medical school. You don't know what's
going on inside your toe. Just because it's not black
and blue doesn't mean there's a problems like a bone
spur or something like that. Gregg does with a lot
(04:32):
of us. It's not a bone spur mysiagnosed. Here's my
point where none of us are doctors. You need to
go see a doctor. What, Bethanie No, I just I'm like,
I'm frustrated because you just need to go to the
doctor like you're not. I don't like to don't like it.
I don't know. But the thing is, this is a
performance studio. We are on a stage with lights and
(04:54):
cameras and laughter and fun, and having you walking around
in pain is distracting. And I don't mean for that
to sound cold, but it's the truth. And see if
it was Ella or Jada, your kids, what would you do?
You take him to the doctor immediately he reads you
the same thing for you, and it would have been
an entire morning of us worried about you. And we
can't do it. We've got to do a show, buddy, gotcha?
(05:19):
Y point taken. I understand. I really do think that
we need to hold in highest regard to big Toe.
I think that we gotta go to the go to
the little doctor and I get back to us, let
us know what happened in a little bit. I'm sure
it's to be fine. It's gonna be you don't know,
just stop stop, stop giving us your own diagnosis. Here,
(05:40):
go to the doctor. Okay, okay, goodbye, geez Okay, there's
the beginning of the drama. That's how the day started.
I just like I feel like we we do pull
the curtain back a little bit on this podcast, which
I like about it because you see a little bit
more of like the inside what's going on. And not
(06:01):
to compare us to something as classy and incredible as
like Broadway, but it's a performance. And if if let's say, uh,
let's say who uh, the guy who's playing the lead
in comment Great Comment right now, if he broke his foot,
he wouldn't show up to Great Comment and wine and
limp around. He would take the night off and his
(06:22):
understudy would go in. That's the way. But like it's
I just get frustrated because he doesn't listen. But he
also is very afraid of doctors. He's afraid of doctors,
he's afraid of medicine. He was taking it was like
he took motion for the first time in his life.
He doesn't do those things, so he's a little uneasy.
I think about he was reading the directions earlier people
(06:43):
read directions on me. He says to me, eleven o'clock.
I took two last night at eleven o'clock. It says,
take one and then take two. Can I take another? On?
All right? Well, this entire podcast is turning into this.
I'm just letting you know. That's how the day began.
Then Julia michael os up one of our favorite talents,
a writer, performer, everything, and she can't perform because her
(07:05):
voice is messed up, and she was so so upset
that she couldn't perform for us. She said, I feel
like such an asshole. I'm so sorry. I'm like, Julia,
we love you and because we do so. Actually, we
had a great interview with her, just talking about the
fact that she's a real artist and she she really
wanted to perform but couldn't. She didn't want to let
(07:26):
us down. What Brody, I find it interesting, if you
don't mind me saying so. We pointed out that Julia
Michaels was under the weather and she couldn't do her
job the way she normally would, and we embraced her
and told her to be herself. And then when Gregg
t went through the same thing, we told him to
get the funk out, not the same thing. He couldn't
do his job, he couldn't perform, and we said, get
(07:47):
it's not the same thing you. No, he's not talented
like Julia is. I understand, No, that's not that's not
what it is. If he could say, we would have
been like, oh, put your foot up on the counter. Stay,
we love you. But but he doesn't have a good attitude.
When he said no, I understand that she had things
to say and she had insights to give and she
was a trooper and she's lovely and he is passive,
(08:08):
aggressive and gets really very sad, very easily, and he's
not in a position to be on a show right.
It would have turned into the Greg t has a
Boo Boo shop. So then French Montana shows up. I've
never met him before. It turns out this guy is
I'm sorry, I'm gonna say it this way. This cat
is cool and we had such a great time with him.
(08:28):
Then we started doing shots of Costa dragona tequila, and
then we got a little ship faced and Nate's falling
asleep and I ate a banana like five hours ago.
That's all I've eaten let me say whoever poured the
shots didn't overpour defense. Those coffee cups are hard to
(08:51):
tell how much it was four gulfs. That's like, look,
I'm all for us doing shots in the morning. I
think we had a good time. Yeah, I threw out
a bit min I throughout half that shot, I was like,
I cannot finish that. Did I grabbed it and drank
it before you do it? But you know, then we
had to keep the show under control, which is kind
of difficult. But we had fun. We had fun. You know,
I really love that we can just start getting a
(09:13):
little goofy. We can run a little late because straight
Nate is you know, he's off his game because he's
he's ship faced. But we had a great show. That
was my favorite part. It was a lot of fun.
And it got great when there was zero fox given
by straight n when you were just sitting there like, well, no, no, no,
we we needed a healthy balance, that's the whole point.
But you did you did great today. He has no
healthy balance. He fell over twice outside all the way
(09:36):
and now Darren Chris is coming in. We're in about
fifteen minutes. We're recording the interview to run back tomorrow,
and of course tomorrow when we play back, will pretend
it's today tomorrow. But when we take pictures, I'll have
the same pants on tomorrow as I had today. Just
broke the fourth wall. I don't care whatever, but anyway,
so it's just a busy day, but I'm having This
(09:57):
is a great day. Like days like today. It's just fun.
We're all we're busy, so our minds are like kept
busy and active. And uh, Garrett brought in a fantastic
round of sound today. It was all good. I mean,
everything just was kind of cool. And even though straight
nights about to fall over in a pool of his
own vomit, we love you well. I haven't thrown up
in twelve years or not kicked out of anywhere today.
(10:18):
I did not get asked the leave. Is this how
drunk you were when you got kicked out of that place?
I was drunker. Another thing we talked about on the
show today was this list that Bethany keeps on her phone,
the list of things I cannot say on the radio
because we'll all get fired, because she'll she'll hear a
quote in the room, she'll and she'll ask me. I
put this in my in my file, and we'll go yes,
(10:41):
I I don't even some of them are just you
being ridiculous, you know there it's not. It's not just me,
it's other people, right, it's mostly you, I'm sure to see.
The difficult thing is that some of them, some of
them are you being sarcastic. But it just I have
to like, you know, they're all in fun and a
lot of these things would have most people throw in
jail or fired right like one of them. Okay, so
(11:03):
one of them is actually Nate. So you were Elvis him,
he's got he's coughing up emphasyme over here, we're trying
to okay what So you were walking towards me and
you said, do you need me to shake you? I
will physically shake you. And then Nate from the other
side of the room goes flapper too. Did I say that? Yes?
(11:25):
She did remember that day? Um wow, I don't recall
your personal file and not the HR file R Okay.
So then we were going around the room deciding what
kind of dog everyone would be if they were a dog,
and Nate said, Elvis, you're a cockapoo. And Elvis said,
(11:45):
you know what, you are you're a dick sucking cockboy Treever,
I remember that you are. Yeah, I'll tell you. The
funniest stuff happens when the microphones are off and we
were we were playing the ANSWER's Meat, and during the
commercial break, Brody said, the ANSWER's Meat is my favorite game,
(12:07):
followed only by guess that fabric and Elvis you yelled,
it's burlap, you fucker. I don't know what I mean.
Daniel love these moments where the microphones are off. I do,
but people need to hear them more often. And you're like,
don't tweet that out. They can't some of these things,
and then some of these I can't even My favorite
Elvis moment, he was in his office on the phone
(12:30):
talking to someone and he screams at the top of
his lungs, you fucking broke the candelabra. Okay, that was
the second one. By the way, they broke two of them,
he said, they broke another candle has one more than one.
They weren't just candle oberates, they were neon candele OBErs.
(12:53):
So sorry, can you can't read some of those like
they're that bad people? Because some of them you use
words that like, well be careful here. That's what I'm
saying some of them, and one thing you called me
is like no, no, no, but right, okay, next exactly,
So I can't really, I can't really really well, gott
I hope I've never offended you by saying this. You know,
(13:15):
a lot of people have to understand because they don't
really have a point of reference. We work in a
very very different environment than that everybody listening to this podcast.
I would I would gather, but our our office is
completely different and we live by a different set of
rules because we're in this entertainment industry. But everybody at
at their office has that one or two friends that
they can joke around with, like, well you think you can.
(13:37):
But here's my here's my question. In this circle of
friends that we have here where we could basically say
anything to each other and get away with it, is
there ever a point where if someone becomes disgruntled they
can turn us in and then on the other side,
can we say, wait a minute, this was an environment
where you were a part of it too, So that's
a tough line. So I don't know, I don't know
if if any of us could be offended or defend
(14:00):
in a court of law. I think in order for
that to happen, someone would have to keep a record
on their phone of all of the things that were said. Okay,
I guess we're all screwed. I don't know. Now. Have
you guys had real jobs? And Elvis, you've always been
in radio pretty much, But I've had real jobs where
I was like this in those jobs. And I actually
(14:21):
had a boss tell me many many many years ago,
he said, you you you act like that. You you
wise crack. He says you you you're like a joke
away from a lawsuit. And I said, but I'm just
being me. And so this environment is exactly what I
always dreamed an environment should be. But you know, Bethany,
you've worked in a bank and you weren't like this
in a bank. Work would you talk about so you're
(14:46):
in a bank? Actually we only have fifteen seconds left.
You can answer this on Tomorrow's like, can you act
like this in a bank? All right? No, No, you cannot. Sorry,
we're having technical difficulties because straight nates drunk. I don't.
I thought i'd hit it off. So we'll see you tomorrow. Bye.
