It's time to go around the room with Elvis Duran in the Morning show.

Oh, let's go around the room. I know you've got something on your mind. I can tell that producer Sam is thinking. You at something, you see the smoke, what's on your mind? What's going on?

Okay?

So, I, like a lot of people, I think, are trying to save money, but I also really love traveling.

I have one coming up.

My husband's going to do the Miami Marathon, so we're going to Miami for that, which is great. But other than that, I saw someone say on Instagram the other day, think about five years from now, are you going to be reminiscing back on this trip. If the answer is yes, it's probably worth making the trip. If the answer is maybe not, it's not worth doing So if you're like me, you're trying to be a little more spend savvy, but you also really like an adventure, that's a really good thing to think about. Because my big trips like Japan and Australia, the place I really loved being I think about once a week at least, so that was totally worth it. So just maybe don't blow it on a trip you won't really be thinking fondly of five plus years.

Well, how do you know until you go right, do you just like know about yourself?

You know kind of? Or you could just go on all the trips all you never know and then keep a float chart and check back five years later.

I see. I mean, if you go to let's see Tokyo, you're definitely anticipating some stuff you're getting.

Right, like a real experience.

It's worth it.

I'm okay, I'm with with hey, uh gandhi, what's going on in your mind?

Well, it's Wednesday, so that means a new podcast episode dropped today.

Yes, who is it?

It's Diamond, Andrew and I talking about a lot of things.

Yeah, a lot of a lot of things. I don't know if I can even say Diamond. Is it a good podcast?

Sure?

Diamond?

Was there an argument? Of course, there was an argument if it's you, Diamond and Andrew, Well.

Diamond, it was sort of caught in the middle of a love triangle. And she doesn't she's not appreciative of how Andrew and I responded to it.

Just the guy she's having sex with at the gym.

That yes, this involves a pastor. By the way, A.

Three way with a past never in my life, never in my life. But we found out that the pastor is up to no good.

Yes, oh he did, but she wasn't happy with how Red responded to it. That actually wasn't even gonna be my around the room all right.

So a new podcast dropped Sounds in the Tree gamesss.

On the side. Wherever you hit your.

Podcasts at the side. I hope you get them on your iHeart network.

Yeah, oh okay, So my actual around the room. I need you guys to help me decide something. My neighbor in my apartment building, there's something sketchy going on over there, and I can't put my finger on it. I think the people living in the apartment don't actually live in the apartment squatters.

Yes, wow, I think so. Well.

Now they had a grocery delivery dropped off Saturday evening. Those groceries are still sitting outside the apartment door. At what point can I go pill for through all the non perishables and take them.

Froggy will be them.

Oh, don't take them.

It's been five days, right, so I'm not a little rat for doing it.

It could be they could be some It could be the cancn sale from shop rides. You got canned vegetables that those will last forever.

I looked in the bags, there's like some socks and some snacks and all kinds of stuff. I'm like, oh, I could take those.

So you're asking if the bag has been in front of their apartment door for five days? Yes, is it fair game?

Yes, the milk gone, all their frozen stuff is gone. So I'm like, something needs to happen with these bags because they don't want it to start sinking up the hallway. And while I take care of it, I should just take all the other stuff.

Well I would, Yeah, I would remove the whole bag as if maybe someone from the building did it, and and just take the things out that you need.

Okay, socks, I have to go check it out though.

Socks and cans of cream and corn.

I hope no one else gets there before me today.

But yeah, that's weird, weird, that's kind of spooky. That's something sitting out there.

There's something strange happening there.

Something strange.

Hey, my boy Tony Fish at Scale in Jersey City said scary, I got this fresh monk fish in and it just came off the boat yesterday. So I'm like, I've never had monkfish before. He goes, it's beautiful, it's clean, you gotta try it. He goes, it's the poor man's lobster. I gotta tell you.

I brought it home.

I cooked it because I have an open mind and I'll try anything once. It was so friggin good. But I can't understand why it's so cheap. And he says, because nobody wants it, it's not in high demand. But it really is so good, so buttery, it doesn't even taste like fish. And then I googled the picture of it. Oh my god, have you guys ever seen a monkfish?

For that is google monkfish? Monkfish. It's got these crazy ass teeth. It looks like an eel or whatever.

Had I seen the picture first, I would not have been open to trying it.

But because don't judge a monk fish by its cover, I won't.

I'm just saying, that's exactly the moral of Mike around the room.

Oh I got it. Yeah, see what did you eat that? Danielle? But you see daniel fish. She won't even eat beautiful fish after.

So I'm good with it because I know how great.

It tastes just like good. Ok Yeah, they say the tough you eat, you don't want to know what it looks like before they put it on your plate. Hey, uh, Froggy, what's on your mind this fine Wednesday?

Well, speaking of eating, so earlier this morning, I decided whether I wanted to eat a Chick fil a chicken biscuit that had been left out for twenty four hours sitting on the counter here at the radio station. And I had one and it was good, and I'm not having any problems. So I just want to let you guys know there was one more left. I just went to the kitchen.

I grab that. I had a second one. Double down. I think it's going to be just fine.

Dangerous his middle name?

What double down? Froggy danger.

I guess we'll find out. I should know by when. When's like, when's the time to go? Yeah, I'm clear better this time tomorrow.

No, you can get like salmonella and all that from months for weeks weeks later.

I think tomorrow's good.

Okay, So let's say next year, you have until spring. Okays, next Christmas, Hey, keep an eye on. Let's keep it out with froggy, Hi, Nate, what's going on with Okay? I'm going to give you a life lesson and I've got show and tell with it. So this right here, it's a red winged boot. Yes, okay, buy it for life. You know these things last forty years if you take a nice boot. My lesson with this is they are extremely uncomfortable to break in. They take a while, but as soon as you break them in, my god, it's the most comfortable thing I've ever But you got to break him in though. You gotta break it, just like it's like a horse. You gotta keep on riding it. Just like anything in life that's worthwhile, you got to take the time, learn how to do it right, and take the time to get it right, so it's worth it. That's my lesson.

Do I smell feet?

Oh?

I hate feet. It's like a Fredo the lesson. Sometimes it takes time and it's all worth it. I mean, how long have you been here? We're still breaking you in.

We Arenate lives a life that is so interesting. He's got a lady chalk, he's got work boots. What does they do when he leaves here?

A lot of construction? Daniel with you today.

All Right, So you guys know, and I know a lot of you follow different Instagram accounts that you kind of become invested in, and I feel like these people become part of my family. Well, I've following a woman. Her name was Deborah Fink, right, and she had a very rare form of cancer, and they caught it. They actually misdiagnosed her, and by the time they caught her cancer was way too late. Her daughter, Katerina Fink, has been kind of like following her progress. And every day Deba's been checking in Hi everyone, she says, and she gives her journey and she talks about what she's been doing and blah blah blah, and then you know, progressively and fortunately she has gotten worse and worse. And the other day her daughter got to try on wedding dresses and they tried on these wedding dresses on Instagram so that everybody could see her daughter, and she got a chance to experience her daughter in her wedding gown even though a daughter's not even engaged. Well she passed away, Wow, like the day after the wedding gown thing, and I felt like somebody from my own family passed away because I'm I love them so much, so I just wanted to send my best out to Katerina Fink and her family. I know they're going through a lot and her mom, Deborah was amazing and I know she's looking down now taking care of the family. And yeah, if you get a chance, Beanie and Katerina is the daughter's Instagram and it's pretty special. The whole journey was, you know, something to watch. Kiss your people, man, hug your people, Tell your people you love them, because you just never.

Know here you go. Thank you for sharing that
