(01:04):
on your on your podcast Firm Elvis Presents Show. Yes,
are you guys ready to get out of here? Yes,
let's go because we have we have a lot of
stuff to do before we leave for we go tomorrow
the five minute podcast. Yeah, I got so much to do.
(01:27):
I gotta get my I gotta clip my nails. Okay,
all right, you should have gotten you should have you
of all of us, should have gotten a pedicure? Did
you know? But talent toe is pretty the day. By
the way, get ready because Scary does the I'm trying
really hard to speak Spanish. Watch him when we're there,
He'll say grassis from my soda. Listen regions Spanish. Rushed it.
(01:49):
I almost got a hundred. By the way, I asked
Brodie today said all you know, we all have to
leave our families on Are your kids gonna miss you? No,
they don't care. How many of your kids are not
speaking to your now? Because there's always at the three
two of them. I've never not well, there was, Okay,
there was one time that I didn't speak to my
my parents like a regular thing all the time. Have
(02:15):
any kids, I'm talking from your kids from your point
of view, Bethany finished what you were saying, and then
I'll explain. I'll answer scary question. The only time I
ever didn't speak to my my parents was when my
parents were getting a divorce, and I was just like
really upset. But in your house, it's a regular thing
for your kids to not talk to you. How is it?
Like my parents would have not They would have like
locked me up if I had I said, I'm not
(02:38):
talking to me. How do you like put up with that? Well,
luckily I have a house. When I when I was
growing up as an only child in a small apartment, um,
if I had a problem with my parents, there was
really no where to go. There was like the living
room in my room, in their room, and that was it.
There was nowhere to go. In a house we have,
we have a little bit of space. I can go
into my office or into the bedroom and watch TV
(03:00):
and whatever. Or I can go into living room and
kick them out. But it's awkward. That's not my question, Like,
my question is not how do you do it logistically?
My question is like, how do you not? Like my
parents would have said, that's not an option. That's so disrespectful.
I would say, in my house, I'd like I've tried that,
but if if you butt heads with Look, I have
two of my kids are teenagers. They're early know that
(03:22):
they're they're teenagers, so they're going through teenage stuff. So
they're both girls, and I'm just I'm just saying them
not all teenage girls. But there's a lot of eye rolling,
a lot of arm folding, a lot of the thing
is if you know you went through that, or you
knew kids that went through that when you were growing up,
then why can't you be a little bit more compassionate
to them? Okay? Now, okay, because saying you know what,
(03:45):
I don't want to because at one point in your
life you said I don't ever want to become you're
becoming that. I'll answer that not becoming anything. When you're
a parent, you swear to yourself and Greg T Danielle,
you'll you'll understand. You swear I will never say those things.
You swear I will never do those things. But you
turn around and all of a sudden, you're yelling as
long as I own this house, you'll not go out
(04:06):
in that outfit. Just come that it comes to it.
Because you realize that your parents had a responsibility that
your parents said those things for your benefit, that your
parents said, don't do drugs, or don't go hang out
with that crowd, or you can't stay out till four
in the morning, or you have to call me so
I know where you are, not because they didn't trust you,
they didn't trust the world. And so when you're fifteen,
(04:27):
you're like when I'm a parent, right, But then you
are and you realize the most precious thing in your
life is a living being that you created and you're
responsible for, and you would die before you let them
get a boo boo, you know what I mean. And
when you love somebody so much that I'm going to
tear up now if I keep saying it, Gregntinos Danielle
knows you cry. I cry thinking about how much I
love my kids and so loving them so much, I
(04:49):
will do and say what I have to to protect them,
even if it means they're gonna be mad at me.
That's the price you pay. My one son has poison
ivy right now, and if I could take that poison
ivy and put it on me so that he doesn't
have to feel it, you would do it another hand.
When the freaking house is a freaking mess. I'm gonna
yell at them and sing up the freaking house and
if they're gonna be mad at me, you know, But
Brodie's right. This is when you realize that all the
(05:09):
stuff that your parents gave you shipped for growing up
or you thought they were out of their freaking minds
and they hated your guns and why do you hate
me so much? And blah blah blah. It's not that
they hated you, is that they loved you so much
that they were so worried about you all the time.
And they're responsible to mold you into a decent human
being and a decent grown up. At some yea, at
some point you have an epiphany, will you go, holy crap?
(05:30):
I get it. Well. I had to call my mother.
I called her, I don't know, ten years ago and
I said, hey, I'm sorry. She said, foliagal for everything.
I totally get it, all of it. It doesn't mean
I still don't ague with my mother, but I get it.
Like I'll hang up the phone and I'll go, I
understand it, my mother. You know, I have three kids,
a house job. My mother still says, listen, I heard
it's gonna be cold tomorrow. Make sure you dress one,
(05:52):
because because that's what she cares about me, even though
she knows. I tell I'm gonna wear a tank top whatever.
She says that. But your kids level and starts talking
about this, he's so, oh, yes, of course. Okay, here's
the thing. You do not say the word yeah. No,
Please don't ever say fire. My kids will say it
to me, knowing I understand it, but I don't say that.
(06:16):
I don't say to them, Wow, that was pure, straight fire, pure,
it was lit. I don't say it. Even though I
work here, I know all the lindsay I'm boss. That's right.
You know you you they speak to you, and you
understand it. They know that I'm I'm I'm in it,
but I'm not going to say it to them. No.
But anyway, I didn't like my daughter's outfit, going to
govern his ball and then we get to fight zero
(06:37):
door slam. Will you please stop doing it? Could have
done what my sister used to do. She's in the backpack. Okay,
but here's here's yeah. But the scariest point, I'm smarter
than that. My wife used to sneak out and change
outfits when I used to date her. I know, I
know all the rules. So I told her, I said,
not only are not going to wear that outfit, you're
(06:57):
gonna hand me the outfit before you go out that
and now what if? Yeah, I will check her purse
and then I'll check her friend's house because that's where
she's got I know what to cover. Listen. The bottom
line is, I'm not trying to shame what she's wearing.
I'm concerned about the people at the concert. We might
see the outfit and look again, I know people are
gonna say, you can't blame hard for what guys, I'm not.
(07:19):
I have to mentally protecting her from what I know
is going on in the world. There you go. Anyway,
the point was sometimes we fight. Right now, to be honest,
we're getting back to we're almost talking again, right, congratulations. Yeah.
I had to meet Bill Nye, the science guy, last week,
so we kind of broke. Bring her back a souvenir
from Mexico and we'll be good with the Actually, okay,
so I offered, So I don't smoke pot, I don't
(07:42):
eat pot. I don't do pot at all. But when
your daughter, I won't say her name because I know
you don't like to. When your daughter was in to
meet Bill Nye, I jokingly offered to sell her pot
or you said you had edibles at your desk and
what you asked her what to do with them? And
she said, sell them to middle school or is And
I'm like, you are a smart kid. Again, don't sell
(08:03):
them to middle schoolers. But she has a very funny
sense of humor. I wonder where she gets it from.
So that's another thing. When I'm obnoxious and sarcastic, and
that's fine for me, and you know, sometimes it rubs
you guys the wrong way. Great team. Um so when
my mother is just like me, so we butt heads
the same way my grandfather was like my mother. They
butted heads. And of my three kids, my oldest one
is just like me. So we we sarcastic each other.
(08:26):
We we obnoxious each other. And yeah, but around you guys,
she's awesome because it's funny. She's a breath of fresh air.
I think she's great. She is great, but we have
were too similar. So you guys packed for Mexico. Yeah,
getting there. I don't don't I know what he's doing.
He wants to see if I'm gonna check my bag.
Here's what I want. I really want to know you guys, seriously,
(08:48):
you guys gonna pack a bag and you're going to
check the bag, or you're gonna just do a carry on,
because if we all do carry ons as a group,
we can get the hell out of there was doing.
I was doing a checked bag because a lot of
people were. But then Nate d Of said something that
hit home, was like, you know, you never know you
were in that line forever, blah blah blah. I he's right,
So I have now a carry on. I convinced my
(09:08):
mom to do the same because she's coming. She's going
to have to carry on because we're all being put
into shuttle group and so we're hurted, like counting right
and so, and we don't know yet who is in
our shuttle group, and so we need to all pack
carry ons only. But so that if people are in
a shuttle group with like one person who checks the bag,
we're all going to hate that one person. Dotty B's
wife Amy is definitely doing a checked bag, and Kathleen
(09:32):
might be too, ill and you should be in their
shuttle groups. You don't. I've always been tempted to do
when you when you leave to go like on a
vacation or like a business trip or something like this,
and you legitimately just walk on with the clothes that
you're wearing, and then maybe you carry like like seriously
like a bathing suit and that's it. And then whatever
you need, you have to buy it or just wear
the same clothes your right. If we're a guy, you
(09:55):
let your beer grow, you just you get flags if
they see it was nothing like you just you just
end up laying around on a beach all day, would
cut off shorts and a pair of flip flops and yeah,
you go, well, you know, because here's the idea that
I got it from. For real. Like, so I had
an old fraternity brother, right, and he used to like
(10:15):
leave the house for months, and then all of a
sudden he would just show up and and I was
so one morning I woke up and I went downstairs
and on the couch was this dude. We're like this
beard and this flannel and cut offs. And I'm like, dude,
we got some homeless guy on on the on the
couch and they're like, dude, that's not a homeless guy. Dude,
that's Dave, and I'm like, who's Dave. Dave just like
(10:35):
shows up and I'm like what. So when we got
to talk to him that that's literally what he doesn't
bring it overnight, right, So he would just like kind
of like travel and then he would come back to
the fraternity house and then hang out there for a
couple of weeks and then travel and come back. And
that was his deal. And we just knew that was Dave.
So I was kind of cool to be Dave and
like kind of hang out like on a business trip
(10:56):
just like that. And You're only going to Mexico for
a day, right, And I am so tempted, but I'm scared.
But you're right because I'm only going for like twenty
four hours. This would be that time to go out
with like a pair of cutoffs and see how it goes.
I didn't do it. I don't know why not. Why
are you gonna get a chance for one day flight life?
I know you're right, And Brody brings up a great point.
(11:18):
I don't think I'll ever have another opportunity like this,
like this would be that time to be days. Just
pack your toothbrush. I know that I'm thinking I mean
like a little like serious, like one of those like
little little back patchels to draw streams. You know, I
just could wear what you have, what you're wearing on
the plane the next morning. He's only there for less
(11:38):
than twenty four hours. You can do in two ways.
Either you're there or be You literally just tell everybody
I'm going like this and it is what it is.
And then how many times could you get away with
the joke, Oh my god, my bag? You could? I
left it on the and then fill in the blank.
It's really interesting. I don't know, it's a cool way
of thinking about that. Just go one with whatever you
(12:01):
have on your back. You know, people come from overseas,
they visit America and they come with an empty suitcase.
Everything there. Yeah, they buy everything, go sell it back,
and they clearly forget to bring their deodorant. O the backpackers.
There's nothing you couldn't You can't even get on board
of an airplane anymore with a with deodoran. Then even
let you they throw it away, don't they don't. You
(12:21):
can't you can't have You can only have a little
tiny stick or something, a little stick. Who travels with
a big deodor. I always do. I travel with cologne,
and they have little things that you can take the
cologne as a carry on as well. Really, but you
don't travel, do you. I don't like to travel. Ye
like solid stuff. Yeah, there's even shampoo that comes as
(12:45):
a solid. I want three ounce Umu sun Protector yesterday
and a three ounce Bucks Harmon drunk gift. Did you
buy enough for everyone? No, none of us have that.
Well you go to the store and buite. I need
a gallon of it. You know, Maybe I'll do that
this time. Maybe, honestly, I may just go with whatever
I'm wearing and then just do it. I Actually it's
(13:07):
only twenty four hours, right, Remember, I'll bring the passport.
Was gonna possibly you guys want to hear some audio
that we didn't get to play on the show, that's
uh bonus. We played a clip of Michael Jackson's Thriller
with the guy Vincent Price doing a voice over. Did
you know Danielle knows every single word? Well, how do
(13:29):
you know that the Vincent Price interloose? Yes? How do
you know that? Scary? Did you record Danielle? It's a
little snippet. This was playing on the air the Vincent
Price thing. Dan was going word for words, so we
isolated Danielle's might. Let's play we don't have a ship.
(13:51):
Thanks in the air years. I'm clearly Google to clothing
and see your due. And though you fight to stay
live your body shut up for no mere mortal can
(14:13):
sa it out. That's just a small snippet. I was
behind daniel I was behind your head the entire time
with my phone. You were so into the song. You
had no idea. You're so excited because in in um
grammar school, I guess I won the talent show for
(14:35):
the Thriller dance. I had dressed like Michael Jackson and
I did the whole thing. Oh my god, it was
a big thing. And doing all the moves, I don't
I don't remember all of them, but back then I
did the whole, the whole thing. That was like Michael
Jackson was our thing. Back then. He was like he
was when we wanted to marry him and George and Relay.
