Speaker 1 (00:01):
It's time to go around the room with Elvis Duran
in the morning. Shown around the room.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Let's see what's talking of minds of everyone in the room.
I'm gonna start with you, Danielle. What are you thinking about?
Speaker 3 (00:10):
To right?
Speaker 1 (00:11):
So you know how I always say, like sometimes, you know,
I wrap a present for myself for Christmas, put it
under the tree, and then I open it and I go, oh,
my gosh, how did this get here? I didn't know
who stands I gave it to me like, and I
act like I really didn't know. Well, my mom did
this for herself, but she really didn't know what was
in the package because she totally forgot, she said. She
said she had wrapped something up and she a while ago,
(00:34):
and when she opened a Christmas morning, she was like
honestly shocked because she really did not remember by herself
this present. So this is what I think you should do.
Buy yourself something earlier in the year, wrap it, put
it away, and you will totally forget what it is,
and then at Christmas time you really are surprised what
(00:55):
you got yourself. Because it worked for my mom, and
I think it could work for everybody.
Speaker 4 (00:59):
I'll get I selt the same thing twice what I needed.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Yep, you can buy yourself to open it up. You
buy something for yourself, you open it up like I'm
gonna return this.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
Yeah, I don't know her anymore.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
The person who wanted to Yeah, that was me a
different time in my life. Hey, Froggy, what's on your
mind today?
Speaker 5 (01:17):
If you were lucky enough to maybe be away from
your job for the last week or so as Christmas
and New Year's and everything was going around, I came
back to the office today. There was a package on
my desk. I opened it up and they were cookies.
These cookies were they got here to the office the
day before Christmas. They're a little stale, they're not worth eating.
So if you get back to the office today, make
sure you open up that package. Probably not going to
(01:37):
be eating foods worth eating in there. But they looked
like they were probably very good cookies when they arrived
here on the twenty third, on that Monday. So whatever
too bad. At one time they were great. I'm sure
they really were. They looked somebody put a lot of
work into these and they looked like they were good.
But not now what fourteen days later, fifteen days later.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
See, I still eat them. So scary scary. I tried
to scary scarce on this big diet. Right now, let's
see what happens.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Scary. What's on your mind right now? Well, first of.
Speaker 6 (02:04):
All, I just want to say that I've always had
the New Year duldrums, like I've always always get depressed
in the first couple.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Of days of the year.
Speaker 6 (02:12):
That didn't happen to me this year because for the
first time ever, I decided to leave for the holidays.
So to me, it's just me like coming back from vacation.
I just swooped in yesterday off coming off the high
of my trip where I went on ncl's Viva as
I'm telling you guys, and of course they're great pop
partners of hours. They're like, let us show you you
(02:32):
know what life is like to be out of town
when it's thirty degrees in the Northeast. I gotta tell
you amazing waking up on a different island each day
it was like eighty two and sunny. It was gorgeous.
And I just went to their site. And I'm not
saying this is not a commercial, but I just discovered
this right now to having a new year's sale fifteen
hundred dollars off all cruises. So if you think that
(02:53):
it may maybe out of my budget, may it may
not be affordable, it can be, it cannot be affordable.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
And I'm limited.
Speaker 6 (02:59):
Open bar just jumped out, not a commercial.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
Not am But I'm telling you once, I just don't want.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
To cluse saying not a commercial. Make it not a commercial.
Speaker 7 (03:07):
Oh never.
Speaker 6 (03:08):
I was never a cruise guy growing up, you know that.
And then NCL opened my eyes.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Very long around the room.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
You don't get NCL. NCL dot com not a commercial,
partners of ours. That went way over sixty seconds. But
I'll tell you this, Come on, it's there.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
You know.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
NCL owns the Caribbean, and right now is the time
to book for the Caribbean. Do it right now at
NCL dot com. Not a commercial, not a commercial. They are,
they are partners of ours. But that wasn't a commercial.
I didn't hear a commercial in there. Hey, what's up
with you, Nate?
Speaker 7 (03:37):
Okay, we've all realized this little things that we start
to do and you realize, oh my god, I'm my dad,
or geez, I'm turning into my mom. I just realized
one my wallet is starting to fall apart, and I realized.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
I'm turning into my father, because I'm like, you know what,
I'll just put a rubber band on it. It'll be fine.
Speaker 7 (03:54):
Oh my dad's guy say wallets. It's I think nineteen
ninety seven. There is duct tape and rubber and oh.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
My god, I'm turning into my father. So you just
think about it.
Speaker 7 (04:07):
What are those little things that you are doing now
that you realize I've turned into my parents, which is
not necessarily a bad thing.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Oh, I tell you, the longer you go in life,
the more you see those things.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Yeah, and you know it's okay. We all have great
parents to emulate. Hey, what about you, producer, Sam, what's
on your mind today?
Speaker 8 (04:24):
So life is about balance, and I think I balanced
myself very well entering this new year because I did
something very much not like me. I jumped into the
ocean and I'm always cold, and I said no for
like four days. When my friends invited me. On the
day five, I said hell, I'm in and I did
it and I'm proud and that was awesome. Then I
did something very much like myself. We had a game
(04:45):
night welcoming the new year, and I said, I'm not
going to be competitive, It's going to be fine.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
Yeah, right right.
Speaker 8 (04:51):
But then they brought out a trophy that they have
which is now on my mantel, and I made no.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Sam is the worst person to play games the word.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Yeah, never ever played games with Sam. Ever.
Speaker 8 (05:05):
There was like a ten year old at one point.
I'm like, can you suck at flip cup?
Speaker 3 (05:08):
Move over?
Speaker 7 (05:09):
You know.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
I do love a good trophy. And finally, Gandhi, what's
on your mind today?
Speaker 4 (05:15):
I know we talk about this all the time, but
I just think it's an important time to remind people
not to yuck other people's yum, because I saw it
so many times over the holiday where somebody be really
excited about something and tell everyone, hey, I'm so excited,
and there'd be somebody in the group who had a
little micro criticism about whatever that thing was, like, oh,
this is my new house. Here are the new rooms,
and one idiot friend is like, it's gonna look so
(05:37):
good when you redecorate this space. Shut up, Just enjoy it, man.
Just let them have their fun. You can save your
critique and your criticism for later. When someone's enjoying something,
just let them enjoy it.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
That is it? I that was an okay around the room.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
Sorry, thank you for your micro criticism.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
See what I did there?
Speaker 2 (05:56):
I agree, I agree some people just need to think
before they speak. Mm uh and I love it.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
And there you go. You hear
