Speaker 1 (00:03):
What would you talk about on your on your podcast
represents show. So here we are time for another fifteen
minute morning show. Every mic is on in the room.
That means we've got a full house. Let's go around
the table. There's Bethany, my hot boyfriend Alex is here. Hello.
(00:29):
Our hot producer Dave Rody is here. Hello. Great, he's
a scorcher. He's here. Yeah, what's up. There's producer Sam,
she's here. Scary's here. What's going on? There's Danielle and
straight Nate. Where were you going? He's on he's on
the phone leaving. All right. Well bye. Who wants to
sit in a straight night spot? Oh no, yes, Gary
(00:52):
doesn't have a chair. Okay, Scary, you get right over there. Well,
welcome to the show. We start out with a Dave
Rody talking about shopping cart etiquette. Yes, I got into
a fight with someone. So I was at the big
opening of Wegmans, which is a supermarket in the Northeast.
Huge crowds, so we took twenty minutes to get a
parking space, and there was shopping cart returns, you know,
but people were just running into their cars and shopping
(01:13):
carts everywhere. Now there's four things you can do with
a shopping cart. When you're done with it, I'm gonna
give you three. You let me know if you do
any of these three, and I'll tell you the fourth one.
Got a strong opinion about cart. So these are the
three you have an option of doing. One, you can
return it to the shopping cart holder the stable, and
that's what you should do every time, right. Number Two,
If you can't make it there, they don't have one,
(01:35):
you can push it forward between the cars it make
sure it doesn't move, or put it like the front
wheels up on a ledge. Right, that's what If you
can't get to the return. Three, you can look for
someone to give your cart too and say, hey, you
need a cart, you can have mine. So it's it's
did I cover everyone's options in this room? Is there
anyone here that does something else? I actually, on a
nice day, I will bring it all the way back
(01:55):
to the store and put it right back inside. That's
like taking it back, ging it back to the bar,
and all right, I don't believe that's a good, good citizen.
It's a nice day. So I'm walking from my car.
We had to park all the way in the back
and I'm walking past the woman who was I don't know,
maybe seven spots away from the cart stable. And she
put her stuff in her trunk and then took the
cart and put it behind the car next to her,
(02:18):
like by the trunk of the car next to her,
got in her car, and I yelled, hey, don't do that,
and my wife and kids like, don't you? And I said,
that woman just left it to somebody else to move
the cart from the back. And then what if they
come from the front of that car? How lazy can mean?
You could come from the front of your car. You
go down the wrong aisle, you don't know where you parked,
You go in your car and you back up right
into the car. You didn't know it was there, right,
(02:41):
So a big diarrhea on that person. I yelled at her,
but she didn't hear me. I got so mad, Larry David,
have you shopping? You can't go and put the carts
behind the other car you're bringing back. You give them
to somebody, you put them up on the leg. Here's
the thing, this lady, I mean, she's so lazy. She
just doesn't he even wipe her ass when she's dying.
(03:02):
She didn't even look around. She didn't do it like
I feel really guilty, I'm gonna look around. I got
Oh jeez, I'm a little tired. I gotta go. She
just went like it's like she does it all the time.
Let's talk about let's do that. Let's talk about just
really rude people today. People. You know, how many times
have you, especially airports, how many times have you been
through an airport and you just witnessed so many people
being assholes and you're just you're just you don't want
(03:22):
to be around people anymore because they just have no
sense of decens Like the assholes who stand up in
the back of the plane and try and run forward
when I'm first, because I'm in front of you. If
I'm in front of you, I leave the plane first.
You cannot come in front of it. Don't try and
get your back out, all right, we got I don't
(03:43):
want you to. You know, we have to live in
a world of a little bit of order. Yeah, so
don't be an asshole. I was so irritated because this weekend,
so I was in Washington, d C. Overnight on Friday
night into Saturday. I took the Acella, the Amtrak train,
and then once I got to Penn station, I had
to take the subway home. So I have a big
duffel bag and I have my purse and I get
(04:05):
in onto the subway and it's packed, and I had
to worm way my way through all of these people
with my bags. Nobody moved, no one made any attempt
to help me get through, and so by the time
I finally got to a seat, the train started to
move and I fell onto the person sitting next to me,
and he looked at me like like I just killed
his mother, and I'm like, dude, no one moved out
(04:28):
of the way, no one helped me, Like, give me
a break. I didn't do it on purpose. I'm so
sorry that I accidentally lost my balance. Like we gotta
look out for each other. Yes, we have to try
to help each other. I probably would have given you
that same look. Really, it's not my fault working so
hard to actually just move into the train. You know,
it pisses me off when you go when you're like
(04:49):
running across the street for you know, like wait, hold on,
let me let me reset that what pisses me office.
You know, when you slow down for someone so they
can cross the street and then they go eve and slower,
and they look and then they start texting. So it's
me and you're letting me go. I am running you
as the street and thank you for letting me go.
A lot of rudeness happens in cars. A guy I
(05:11):
let cross the street in front of me was holding
an ice cream cone, and I was like, oh, let
him go. He licked the ice cream cone as he's
walking across the We slowed down, and it's okay, here's
one that drives me crazy. If I'm behind you on
the highway. Alex has been there there with me, and
this happens, and I just really want to take a hostage.
You're okay, you're both in the right lane, and okay,
(05:31):
he's going sixty. I want to go sixty five. Get
into the left lane. I start to pass him. He
speeds up to the point where I can't get around
him unless I'm going nineties. So I slow down and
get behind him. Then he slows down. I get a
little upset. Be aware. So now if someone's passing me,
I make sure I don't speed up, because it's either
(05:52):
that he's being in a hole or that he realized
how slowly he's going and so you passing him makes
him realize like, oh crap, I should probably be going faster.
I'm the only one who thinks tapping the back of
a car as an option. Yeah, yeah, I did that once.
Everyone was fine. You shouldn't be wrecking your car into someone.
It was a love tap. It was more of a
point than a damage thing off on purpose. We made
(06:14):
the eye contact first. It was an intentional day. The
thing if you're in a lane that's jammed up right
and you're like the third car and the other lanes
really moving quickly. If you signal that you want to
get out of the lane and and move lanes, the
guy three behind you shouldn't come out first and go
so that you can't go. It's gonna be a pecking order.
If you're third, you go. Can we talk about Bethany
can fall on people? That's fine. Can I talk about
(06:38):
the acknowledgement If somebody like slows down so that you
can merge in or whatever, please give him like throw
up a piece sign or speaking of the merge, when
you merge two lanes into one, there's a thing called
the zipper technique. The zipper technique, Yes, left cargoes right, cargoes, left,
cargoes right, car goes. Don't try and go right right,
right right, because because I got to get in there. Alright,
(07:04):
you guys skipped me, by the way. Just get this
room is turned into we're a bunch of bitches just
we're just sending here, just bitching. I think I have
to say that I'm at faults sometimes. So like on Friday,
I was going home and it was really busy. The
traffic was all building up a Route nine. So what
I did was I went into the bust lane and
I like crept up, crept up, and the light was red,
(07:26):
and I was timing out, timing out, and as soon
as it turned green, I gunned it and I went
right past everybody right into and I run into oncoming
droplets and people. All right, I was the ahole, Are
you back up on a one way? You don't have
to get through the regular roads. This this podcast is
so negative. Let let's now take the second half and
(07:47):
talk about positive good things that then his hair looks
good today. I did feel good when I had open
road in front of me. That was that was positive.
I like you in that stage green shirt, all this
like the good look on you. That color is good
on you. Hey. So let's recap our weekend. You know,
we all went to see that show it's an incredible
all Broadway show called In and of Itself last night,
you know, and on our show this morning on the radio,
(08:09):
we we didn't really talk to Samantha about what she
thought of that show. I was completely shook. I like,
I couldn't sleep because every time I woke up it
was the first thing on my mind. And then I
had a dream before I woke up that I sat
with the gentleman who started starting it and we had
a therapy session, like I opened all my feelings about
it and he received it and he was perfect right.
(08:30):
My parents bought a pair of tickets this morning because
I couldn't shut up about it. So the question is,
have you ever experienced something and someone says, well, explain
it to me, and you look at him and go,
I can't just do it, Like, for instance, aren't she
were curious about the show we went to last night? Great,
I am, but I keep hearing you guys say so,
then I don't ask you guys. I haven't even bothered
(08:51):
to ask Brodie curious. I think I'm more dizzy about it,
like I'm trying to figure out what the show is.
We can't telling a narrative, and that he does five
magic tricks throughout and they're all strung together somehow, it's
so much more meaningful. That's the one Scary actually totally
left up. He did not understand the premise of the show,
(09:13):
and from my point of view, and we all walked
away with something different. What I got from this guy
in the show was you think you know someone, you
walk down the street, and you just make assumptions about them,
and you don't know them at all. You don't understand
what they're going through in life, you don't understand what
their lot in life is all about. So after the show,
I fell into a trap. We we met this incredible couple.
(09:34):
She much younger than him, and so immediately Scary says, oh,
and you're her father, right, And I'm like, you're going
against exactly what we just learned inside the show. You
need to like understand anyone could be from anywhere, and
you need to open your mom right. We came right
out of the show and then within five minutes I
(09:55):
totally forgot the entire theme of the show by assuming
that it was her dad when it was her boyfriend.
But he did have gray hair, and he looked he
looked a young guy. But like I just said, father, father, daughter, father.
I have a question, if they weren't playing guests our relationship,
why did you need to say this is the fault.
Why don't you just I'll say how to you and him?
(10:16):
That's it? Because she said, just say how to Kim
on the radio. But I I don't want to leave
your dad out. Why would you assume anything. Try not
to anymore, and you assume I know, I know, Alex,
and I get this all the time. We like I said,
we got it. In Africa, everybody kept saying, oh, so
you and your son or and so I was like, yeah, daddy,
(10:37):
what are we doing today? So I said this on
the Big Show this morning, Alex, you need to do
what I used to do when I was dating a
guy who was much older than me. He had gray hair,
he definitely looked like my dad, if not my grandfather. Um.
They would say, you know, blah blah blah, you and
your daughter, and then he and I would start to
make out. She climbed right on his wheelchair and he's
(10:57):
going to freak him out. It's an embarrassing sometimes. But
there was another important message I think in the in
and of itself last night, which is also don't let
people define who you are, because he says that at
the end about that, he tells a little story and
he's like, what if there are people around you saying
this is all you are? You're more than that. And
(11:20):
I thought that was just as important as you don't
judge other people and immediately guess who they are. Again,
you're listening, going, I don't get it. There's a magic
show and you learn lessons exactly. It's just one of
these life experiences. And I'm sure as you listen to
this you can think of something you witness that you
try to explain to someone, like going to Africa, in
waking up on the Serengetti and going out and seeing
that big orange ball come up, which is the sun.
(11:41):
There's no way to describe it. And so what people
ask about our trip and what do we say, We
can't tell you because it's just there's no way words
can do it just and even pictures don't capture We'll
see this is what social media has done to us.
We feel like everything scary? Can you pay attention to
pa we feel in social media? We feel that everything
(12:03):
we do needs to be explained to someone and shared
with someone. Can you imagine living in a world where
you can just experience something and that's enough, that's good enough.
You don't have to tell the world, you don't have
to post a picture of it. That would be great.
I'd love to escape from these chains, your own change.
You die without social media. That's because because it's here,
(12:25):
it's here to stay. If it never had been invented,
I think I'd still I'd be okay without it. But
why are some people, even though it's been invented, still
okay without it? I don't know. I can't answer the
for those people. I can tell you it's from me.
I just feel like I need to be part of
it because it's here and I and it's a living, breathing.
You're altering your life to fit in a status update?
(12:47):
Do you sometimes I wish it wasn't invented? Like, do
you wish that it hadn't been invented? Sometimes? I do, really,
because it really has that much of a pull on you.
It really does. It's It's affected my life in so
many ways. It's changed it. Actually it consumes me. It. Yeah,
sometimes I feel like I need to. If I'm sitting
in a spot for more than an hour at an
event or somewhere, I'm like, God, I haven't done one
(13:09):
post yet. I need to get something, get some footage
or some some snapchat moment. I know it's crazy. I
don't know why. I feel like I'm a victim. But
they say, like, is that the definition of an addiction
or a definition of o c D where it like
you change your schedule, like it takes actual time out
of your day. I think that's c D like addiction
(13:30):
to me. Well, you know, but that's the thing. So
can you imagine a world where you can go experience
something and you can just be so gratified and so
satisfied from it, and it's just your secret. You don't
have to share it with someone. You could. It's nothing
dirty or illegal, but it's just something you enjoyed and
that's all you need to know about it. I think
(13:52):
we've totally forgot about living in a world like that.
I'm bumming myself out. I like this, it's important and
I was forced to do this once I went on
a trip I was for an entire week, and on
day two I dropped my phone in a river, so
it was dead. I had to wait till I came
back to the States to get it, and I packed
for a good six hours. But whatever happened on that
seventh hour, the rest of my trip was the best
(14:12):
thing because there was no option. I had no phone
to reach into, so I was forced to live in
the moment, and every moment was all the more experienced
by me. So scary, Like you, if you left your
phone home for one fun day, you'd panic, But halfway
into the day, I think you would let go in
a way you've never felt before. I think you're right,
you need but you can't have your phone. You can
you have to leave it home for the day. You
(14:33):
can't have it in the pocket. That's why I was
so I was so amazed that Elvis is at six
o'clock in the morning the other day, He's just like,
I'm gonna shut my phone off. It's it, and he
put it in the other room. He didn't he didn't
come back until ten o'clock to check his phone. Because
I couldn't believe you did that. How did you do that? Well,
I snuck out everyone, so it's okay to enjoy things
(14:54):
in life and not share them with others. Fifteen minute
morning show Elf
What would you talk about on your on your podcast
represents show. So here we are time for another fifteen
minute morning show. Every mic is on in the room.
That means we've got a full house. Let's go around
the table. There's Bethany, my hot boyfriend Alex is here. Hello.
(00:29):
Our hot producer Dave Rody is here. Hello. Great, he's
a scorcher. He's here. Yeah, what's up. There's producer Sam,
she's here. Scary's here. What's going on? There's Danielle and
straight Nate. Where were you going? He's on he's on
the phone leaving. All right. Well bye. Who wants to
sit in a straight night spot? Oh no, yes, Gary
(00:52):
doesn't have a chair. Okay, Scary, you get right over there. Well,

I couldn't shut up about it. So the question is,
have you ever experienced something and someone says, well, explain
it to me, and you look at him and go,
I can't just do it, Like, for instance, aren't she
were curious about the show we went to last night? Great,
I am, but I keep hearing you guys say so,
then I don't ask you guys. I haven't even bothered
(08:51):
to ask Brodie curious. I think I'm more dizzy about it,
like I'm trying to figure out what the show is.
We can't telling a narrative, and that he does five
magic tricks throughout and they're all strung together somehow, it's
so much more meaningful. That's the one Scary actually totally
left up. He did not understand the premise of the show,
(09:13):
and from my point of view, and we all walked
away with something different. What I got from this guy
in the show was you think you know someone, you
walk down the street, and you just make assumptions about them,
and you don't know them at all. You don't understand
what they're going through in life, you don't understand what
their lot in life is all about. So after the show,
I fell into a trap. We we met this incredible couple.
(09:34):
She much younger than him, and so immediately Scary says, oh,
and you're her father, right, And I'm like, you're going
against exactly what we just learned inside the show. You
need to like understand anyone could be from anywhere, and
you need to open your mom right. We came right
out of the show and then within five minutes I
(09:55):
totally forgot the entire theme of the show by assuming
that it was her dad when it was her boyfriend.
But he did have gray hair, and he looked he
looked a young guy. But like I just said, father, father, daughter, father.
I have a question, if they weren't playing guests our relationship,
why did you need to say this is the fault.
Why don't you just I'll say how to you and him?
(10:16):
That's it? Because she said, just say how to Kim
on the radio. But I I don't want to leave
your dad out. Why would you assume anything. Try not
to anymore, and you assume I know, I know, Alex,
and I get this all the time. We like I said,
we got it. In Africa, everybody kept saying, oh, so
you and your son or and so I was like, yeah, daddy,
(10:37):
what are we doing today? So I said this on
the Big Show this morning, Alex, you need to do
what I used to do when I was dating a
guy who was much older than me. He had gray hair,
he definitely looked like my dad, if not my grandfather. Um.
They would say, you know, blah blah blah, you and
your daughter, and then he and I would start to
make out. She climbed right on his wheelchair and he's
(10:57):
going to freak him out. It's an embarrassing sometimes. But
there was another important message I think in the in
and of itself last night, which is also don't let
people define who you are, because he says that at
the end about that, he tells a little story and
he's like, what if there are people around you saying
this is all you are? You're more than that. And
(11:20):
I thought that was just as important as you don't
judge other people and immediately guess who they are. Again,
you're listening, going, I don't get it. There's a magic
show and you learn lessons exactly. It's just one of
these life experiences. And I'm sure as you listen to
this you can think of something you witness that you
try to explain to someone, like going to Africa, in
waking up on the Serengetti and going out and seeing
that big orange ball come up, which is the sun.
(11:41):
There's no way to describe it. And so what people
ask about our trip and what do we say, We
can't tell you because it's just there's no way words
can do it just and even pictures don't capture We'll
see this is what social media has done to us.
We feel like everything scary? Can you pay attention to
pa we feel in social media? We feel that everything
(12:03):
we do needs to be explained to someone and shared
with someone. Can you imagine living in a world where
you can just experience something and that's enough, that's good enough.
You don't have to tell the world, you don't have
to post a picture of it. That would be great.
I'd love to escape from these chains, your own change.
You die without social media. That's because because it's here,
(12:25):
it's here to stay. If it never had been invented,
I think I'd still I'd be okay without it. But
why are some people, even though it's been invented, still
okay without it? I don't know. I can't answer the
for those people. I can tell you it's from me.
I just feel like I need to be part of
it because it's here and I and it's a living, breathing.
You're altering your life to fit in a status update?
(12:47):
Do you sometimes I wish it wasn't invented? Like, do
you wish that it hadn't been invented? Sometimes? I do, really,
because it really has that much of a pull on you.
It really does. It's It's affected my life in so
many ways. It's changed it. Actually it consumes me. It. Yeah,
sometimes I feel like I need to. If I'm sitting
in a spot for more than an hour at an
event or somewhere, I'm like, God, I haven't done one
(13:09):
post yet. I need to get something, get some footage
or some some snapchat moment. I know it's crazy. I
don't know why. I feel like I'm a victim. But
they say, like, is that the definition of an addiction
or a definition of o c D where it like
you change your schedule, like it takes actual time out
of your day. I think that's c D like addiction
(13:30):
to me. Well, you know, but that's the thing. So
can you imagine a world where you can go experience
something and you can just be so gratified and so
satisfied from it, and it's just your secret. You don't
have to share it with someone. You could. It's nothing
dirty or illegal, but it's just something you enjoyed and
that's all you need to know about it. I think
(13:52):
we've totally forgot about living in a world like that.
I'm bumming myself out. I like this, it's important and
I was forced to do this once I went on
a trip I was for an entire week, and on
day two I dropped my phone in a river, so
it was dead. I had to wait till I came
back to the States to get it, and I packed
for a good six hours. But whatever happened on that
seventh hour, the rest of my trip was the best
(14:12):
thing because there was no option. I had no phone
to reach into, so I was forced to live in
the moment, and every moment was all the more experienced
by me. So scary, Like you, if you left your
phone home for one fun day, you'd panic, But halfway
into the day, I think you would let go in
a way you've never felt before. I think you're right,
you need but you can't have your phone. You can
you have to leave it home for the day. You
(14:33):
can't have it in the pocket. That's why I was
so I was so amazed that Elvis is at six
o'clock in the morning the other day, He's just like,
I'm gonna shut my phone off. It's it, and he
put it in the other room. He didn't he didn't
come back until ten o'clock to check his phone. Because
I couldn't believe you did that. How did you do that? Well,
I snuck out everyone, so it's okay to enjoy things
(14:54):
in life and not share them with others. Fifteen minute
