Do you need directions on how to get around the room.
We'll go this way. We'll start with Scary Scary. What's
on your mind today?
Speaker 5 (00:16):
I just want to say Happy Veterans Day. Thank you
Dad for all your services in the Navy. He served
in Vietnam, and my uncle Joe was in the Korean Warrant,
both my grandfathers. Everybody, it's a long line of people,
so just want to tip my cap and say thank
you for everything. And then to all the veterans and
all the families of military and everyone, thank you so
(00:37):
much for your services.
Speaker 4 (00:38):
You'll see Scary in the Veterans Day parade today here
in New York City, Froggy around the room to you
what's up?
Speaker 6 (00:44):
Mine's very similar as well. Thank you to my dad.
My dad was in the US Army. Thank you to
actually on the radio station I work for in Jacksonville, Megan,
she's also a veteran of the US Army, and today
is one of my favorite days. I'm going to Canines
for Warriors. I will get to spend the day with
dogs and service service animals and veterans.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
We will raise money for them and hear their.
Speaker 6 (01:05):
Story of why and how these animals have absolutely one
saved their lives. I am so excited for today. Will
be there all day today broadcasting life.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
And they're gonna be here with us tomorrow. Hey, we'll
be here tomorrow.
Speaker 6 (01:18):
And when you hear their story, you realize that like
a lot of them, they lost everything. Some of them
lost their family, they weren't able to go out, they
weren't able to do things, and these dogs come into
their lives and completely revitalize, rejuvenate and make.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
It so they can live again.
Speaker 6 (01:30):
And that's what's incredible to hear their story and see
that God ask for Warriors is saving lives.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
And I'm glad you're doing that event today.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
What's up with you?
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Gandhi?
Speaker 7 (01:38):
Well, I'm gonna stay in line with what these two
guys are just talking about and wish my boyfriend Brandon
a very happy Veterans Day and everybody else. And I
know that something a lot of vets don't like to
talk about is struggles that they have, whether it's with
mental illness or just adjusting to coming back to real
life after being deployed for a long time. But there
are veterans crisis lines, and I don't know if everybody
(01:59):
knows about this. You can dial nine eight eight and
press one for help anytime you want it. You can
text eight three eight two five five, and you can
also chat online. So if you are a veteran that's
struggling with anything, there are resources for you. You don't have
to just be alone and deal with the things.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
That you have to deal with. Thank you, very very well,
put thank you, Gandhi Danielle, what's up with you?
Speaker 8 (02:18):
I'm not talking about veterans, even though I love them
and Happy Veterans Day. I actually want to thank our listeners,
which I'm sure some of them are veterans. They came
out to Garden State Plaza this past weekend for the
lighting of the Big Santa. They partnered with me on
this at Garden State Plaza and I have to say
fifteen thousand people aresvped to be at this. It looked
(02:39):
like there was about that many outside, but there was
a drone show and Santa showed up and Dylan Schneider,
a country artists performed, and children's choir and a children's
Broadway thing and dancers. I mean it was amazing, and
food trucks and I just met the best listeners and
they have been listening to us for so many years,
and they had so many stories. I heard one woman
(03:01):
tell me that we got her through breast cancer. I mean,
just it's when we get to go out and meet
the people who keep us doing what we do. It
just makes us feel like getting up at three o'clock
in the morning is so worth it. So thank you
to the listeners who showed up at Garden Stay Plaza
for this amazing event.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
We love the listeners.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
Yeah, for the listeners. Thank you, Daniel, thanks for representing.
Excuse me, what about you, producer sandwich up with you today?
Speaker 3 (03:26):
Do not minimize your contribution to something. I feel like
this is something a lot of us do. And I
think about it every year on Veterans Day. Because my
grandpa was a cook in the army, and because he,
according to him, was quote just a cook, he did
not really accept any praise or you know, appreciation for today.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
But Grandpa, if you're listening, yeah you did matter.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
You helped a lot, and there are just a lot
of people out there who do the same thing. They
don't take their contributions as seriously as they should. So
Happy Veterans Day and don't minimize what you contribute.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Absolutely, And finally, straight and eight what's up?
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Well remember what Napoleon said saying the army marches on
its stomach. That wasn't around the room, But I'm going
to talk about veterans as well. So thank you to
my dad, my grandfathers, all of my uncles that served.
Thank you for doing what you did. And does anybody
know why it is on November November eleventh?
Speaker 1 (04:14):
No, well I think I do, but I don't know
for sure.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Okay, it signifies the end of the Great War, World
War One. They didn't call it World War one. They
didn't know there would be a sequel. They said that
they wouldn't know that at that point, wouldn't know. They
said it was the war to end all wars. And
they signed the armisist on the eleventh minute of the
eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month.
And they thought that would be so significant that people
(04:38):
would remember it forever. But then there were so many
more terrible wars after that. So thank you to everybody
that has served. Thank you.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
There you go.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
It's armisist Date, Armisicists Day, Army. I can't say armistice
the arms. If you say it too much, you can't
say it. You know what I'm talking about, armist Armistice.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
What if Sean Connery tried to say it?
Speaker 1 (04:58):
All this Armistice.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
It's a big day and I have to say hello
to two people here on Veterans Day. Uncle Johnny, believe
it or not. Did you know he was a veteran.
They called him Mama Marino because just like your grandfather Sam,
he was a cook.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
He cooked for all of them.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
And let me tell you something, anyone in the military,
you take away their food, they're gonna tell you how
important that cook is.
Speaker 8 (05:24):
So my grandfather was a cook as well.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
There you go.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
They called Uncle Johnny Mama Marino. And he made a
lot of brown food, because that's also a lot of food.
There's lots of it and it's brown. Also to my
father who is looking down from heaven, who served not
only in Europe but also in Japan. Wow, he did both.
And so Dad, you know, I always wished he would
have told more stories, and I bet had as a
(05:50):
you know, a selfish little kid. Had I not been
so selfish, I would have asked for him to tell
me more stories. And I'm so sad that I didn't.
So if you have a veteran in your life, maybe
they do. Maybe they don't want to talk about it,
but you know what, maybe a little prompting will have
them come out and they talk to you about some
important moments they experience while serving.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
It's a very important thing to do. What's up, Nate, Yeah,
to that point, I asked. My dad told us like
three stories about Vietnam, and then I had to do
a project for school where we had recorded an interview
with a veteran, and as soon as that camera went on,
I heard stories that I'd never heard before. So take
a moment and just, you know, see if they want
to talk about it too exactly.
Speaker 4 (06:30):
Yeah, I may not want to, and that's okay, absolutely,
but once I'm sure once some of them start going,
they're going to tell stories that they may have forgotten
about or wanted to forget about, but they share them,
you know, and it's a very important day, very important
It's time to go around the room with Elvis Duran
in the morning show. Also, we can go around the room.
Just go around the room. Shall we do that?
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Do you guys know w how to get there?
