I'm on my way to work in Buffalo, New York and it's a little colder here than it is down in New York City.
Yeah. Hey, did you see that report that came out last week. I forget who put it out. They're saying Buffalo, New York is the number one place you want to live.
Oh really, I think it was Zilla Zillo.
Yeah, yeah, did you see that?
Know what?
We know?
Why?
I mean it gets cold up there.
But yes, they said that the housing market and the job market are phenomenal.
So that's the area they are.
I'm actually a training manager and I've had a job fare of the last two days and it was extremely successful. So maybe Buffalo is a good place to there. You got a job and get your life together.
Were you born and raised in Buffalo? Where are you from?
I was born and raised here, but when I was thirteen, we moved to New Jersey and that's when I started listening to you guys. I came back after college. I love the Buffalo's my home.
You became addicted to us, then you left, but you still have us. Well, Evan, you are the first caller of the day that's here for Buffalo area. Yes, the Great Empire State. Yeah, do you have go belsay of bills? Right, go bells? What do you have for our friend? Evan?

It's a thank you.
I've been listening forever. I love you guys.
Have a great day, you too, Evan. Hold on saying, and there you go. The pace has been set. It's time for Thursday. Let's get into it. Let's get into the three things we need to know. Gandhi, what's going on?
All right?
It looks like CRUs are making some progress on the Los Angeles wildfires as the winds died down a bit over southern California. Red fly warnings expired for much of the LA area last night, allowing crews to get a handle on two major fires. At last check, the Palisades Fire in western Los Angeles was twenty one percent contained, while the Eton Fire east of LA was forty five percent contained. Over eighty thousand people are still under evacuation orders, and now some areas are actually dealing with mud slides. We have all heard government officials warning of the rising oligarchy here in the US, and speaking during his televised farewell speech from the Oval Office. Last night, President Biden discussed areas that give him great concern, going on to say that an oligarchy is taking shape in America with extreme wealth, power and influence at the top. He went on to say that it threatens our entire democracy, our basic rights and freedoms, and a fair shot for everyone to get ahead. He's warning of disinformation across social media, seeing Americans are being buried in an avalanche of it, with free press crumbling and editors disappearing as social media gives up on fact checking.
And finally, how about this one.
Students who get perfect attendance at Detroit Public Schools Community District high schools will be paid two hundred dollars every other week.
Oh yeah, they really want kids go to school.
I know.
Okay, this is like beyond tooth fairy mute money, which is like mad money.
Two hundred dollars every week. Officials say.
The initiative is being put in place to combat chronic absenteeism. Students are eligible to receive up to one thousand dollars if they don't miss any classes in five different two week periods between now and March twenty First, what.
Do we think of this?
Oh, I think it's ridiculous. That's crazy.
How much money they getting in What do they have to do?
They as long as they show up and they have perfect attendance, they get two hundred dollars every other week just for going to school.
Dude, every school is gonna want this now, every kid's course. And I'm not going to school paying me to bus.
I wish they pays two hundred a week to come here. Hell, those are your three you guys ready for your Thursday The.
Mercedes Benz Interview Lounge.

We're just sitting there one day and he's like, post just wrote and wants me to be on his song. I was like, oh, like, I've been waiting for that.

Freshen up your morning with Wendy's Breakfast like a breakfast Baconator or a grilled sausage breakfast burrito, or even a honey buddy Ready for a fresh wake up call. It's got to be Wendy's at Participating Us Wendy's Elvister.
I ran in the morning show.
We go through this every single morning, trying to figure out what to order for breakfast. We're all on our apps. Look at everyone's like nose into the app. So I need protein, Daddy needs protein. Yeah, I'm sure nutella French toast has protein in there somewhere.
Somewhere where do you think it is in there? It's in there, Okay, it's in there somewhere in the middle.
Most things do have a data protein in them. I don't know what are you guys getting anything good?
I don't know. I think I'm just gonna get the two eggs.
You know what?
I have that up too right now.
You know they always say the egg is the most perfect natural food you can eat. All right now? People texting what about the cholesterol, Well, let's what about the cholesterol. You know, I can take those statins. But if you take statins you get dementia. You're not gonna You're not gonna win. You're not gonna get out alive. The assignment is to die.
Yes, we are all going to die one day.
The trick is to die slower. Oh is that the trick. That's the trick is to die slower, dice, slow down, Okay, put down that fried moz rellistic.
Oh that's on here too.
And then the smoothies make you feel like they're good for you, But they're all filled with sugar.
Right right, and they add sugar. They've got natural sugars. Then they add more sugar. Well, I know this restaurant is not even trying to hide it. What does it say? What's it say?
Mate?
So the one smoothie, it says, where is it? Strawberry, bananas, milk and sugar? They don't even hide I gotta call them up. They forgot the sugar.
It's good that.
They're not hiding it, though, because what if you thought you were just getting a straight fruit smoothie.
Yeah, we pretty much all know where getting sugar in there. What's scary?
Banana is one of the sweetest fruits. Do you really need to they needed to add the sugar with that?
I mean it's bananas according to taste tests and their research and development department at this restaurant. They need a little extra sugar anyway. A spoonful of sugar helps the sugar go down, As they say, all right producer Sam. While we're going through our breakfast apps, who are you doing? It's Thursday, It's food news Thursday. So you're doing horoscopes with Froggy.

It's on my list?
Though, Oh my god, it's so good. I don't listen to my own advice. I shouldn't watch it right before bed.
No, you have to put something funny right before bed, Like it was a buffer. You need a buffer before bed.
Anyway, it was just it was too much. I have one more episode, So I'm getting that sadness where I only have one more episode left. I don't want to watch it, but I do. But almost.
That's a quick one too. That's not a lot of there's not a lot of episodes of that.
I think Kiera Knightley is pretty amazing. She is so if you need some intrigue, and even though it's a British show, you do understand what they're saying.
Yeah, you don't need subtitles for this one.
No, it's good. Anyone in black Yeah, are you in.
I just started succession.

All right, all the breakfast orders are in. We're all ready to go. Yeah, is it in yet?
It's in?
So why is Andrew questioning my order online?
He didn't question it.
He was just going through to make sure everybody had placed the order. And then we noticed that you had placed a couple things in there. So I just wanted to make sure that, in fact, you wanted two full orders.
Yes, okay, okay.
I ordered the Cobb salad for me and I ordered the Greek casada for the table.
Okay, I ordered the Greek casadia for just my table.
Okay, she has our private table.
Yeah, I switched it up from the eggs to the Cob salad. There you go, Why won't you split a salad with me?
What is going on?
Because I think I had the different things on my salad.
Yeah, people's salads are very personal.
Well, you know, she split a salad with me yesterday.
It was yeah, and it was delicious.
It was good though. We went down to a quality bestro across the street. It was so good. Scary ordering was scary because he's on first quarter. Scary ordering rules. I'll have the Brenzi, you know, but you can't use any oil or any butter. Just poach it. Lemon's okay. I'll have the Harry Corvet. No butter, no, we know, we know, just steamed right. And then I was eating my shrimp cocktail. I could have one of those. Oh please, by all means, you know why there's no butter or oil. There you go. They're very nice. She had a nice little shrimp cocktail.
I did enjoy the for the table Moroccan chicken. It was like that looked good, but I couldn't have it.
Yeah, the Moroccan chicken is great. It's fried chicken, but it has rocking spices.
Yo.
It was Elvis's worst night Mary yesterday going to lunch, so it was Elvis Scary, Nate Diamond, myself, Nate Diamond Scary all have special orders and special requests for things, which.
Drives him up the wall.
So they go first, and then he's like, the two of us were normal, We're fine.
Whatever's printed the menu will have that chef, the chef who's in charge. However, he wants to bring erroneous because I point out I asked if they could do something that wasn't on the menu, and you know what, they did it.
They did it, They did it was worth it.
They usually don't do the Moroccan fried chick untill night, but we had it during the day. This is the boogiest conversation. And then they brought free dessert. But anyway, I just love going out to lunch with the kids.
It was fun.
And Diamond, did you eat enough? Even though you can't eat anything, you ate a lot? Did you?
Oh?
Yeah, it was great those French fries.
Wait, I thought you weren't going because can I say why she didn't want to go? I don't know, because yesterday you were like, are you drinking? Elvis is like not today and You're like, I'm not going if you're not drinking, Come on, can we talk about that?
Yeah?
Sure, you know, if someone doesn't want to drink, you know, you know me, I'm a drinker, but yesterday, like, no, I got stuff to do today, I can't drink, and she goes Diamond shoots me this look look of hate.
Yeah, because boo, how dare you not give me the fun time that I'm respecting When you.
Were going on, you can drink, you can drink like a friggin fish, I don't care.
Yeah, but it's more fun when you're drinking with other people. And then you're just way more fun when you're drinking. So it's like.
The truck out. Well I'm fun without drinking.
I think so.
Yeah, but it's even more fun.
No, I think it's more fun to be the only person drinking with a bunch of sober people because you're having a party and they are annoyed.
The time you were in Santa Fe and our one friend started dropping acid to the table, that was the weirdest, surreal thing.
I was so entertained by it.
I still don't believe you've heard this story right, all right? Waited dump, way to dump that we did it dump. Yeah, we'll be better. I don't know it was too late, too late, now too late. Now anyway, we'll move on. Let's get into Daniel's entertainment. God, you're the worst.
I didn't hear you say it until after I had said it.
Anyway, what I didn't hear you say we're not going to say the name until obviously after I said the name.
Then you said but I said it before you said no? Again, Yes, I did, absolutely did.
He said it dump.
I said, don't say it. Then you said it.
No, I said it first as you were saying it. I swear to God, call it back.
I'll roll it back.
Okay, all right, done, one hundred percent.
It's a lot of money it dumped. So this conversation is not your made hundred dollars.
Shut up, it's not Germaine.
I did say before that, hundred dollars. Let's go in cash, yeah, not in pennies or nichols. It needs to be cash currency you venmo venmo ven most.
And no two dollars bills like some people around here do.
I will accept the nickels when I get my.
Home venmo okay, venmo is what I will be getting. Let's go, Danielle.
All right, So when is Timothy's Challomey coming in next week because he's here for SNL. So yeah, okay, I'm just well.
He needs to know the rules.
Yeah yeah, So Timothy Schallomey was fined seventy three dollars for something. Listen to this. So he was trying to be eco friendly by riding his bike to his own movie premiere. It was in London, and he wanted to beat the traffic because he was going to the movie premiere a complete unknown. He rented one of those line brand e bikes that you see around the big cities. Well, he apparently didn't park it correctly and he got fined like seventy three dollars for trying to do the right thing. The poor guy. So I mean, yes, I know, so he can afford the seventy three dollars, but that is not the point. Tried to do the nice thing and it did not work. Can't wait to see you Timothy next week when you're in studio with us.
I keep putting it out.
There, I am, I'm putting it out there. Leonardo DiCaprio. I was giving one million dollars to various charities for the LA wildfires, the Eagles, the rock band. They are also donating two and a half million dollars to the upcoming fire Aid benefit concert. There's no word if they'll be performing, though, I'm told I'm told we're waiting for details for that. A lot of people want to be part of that concert, and they can only take a certain amount of people. Dave Grohl spent his fifty six birthday making chili for firefighters and victims, a charity collecting clothing for fire victims. Says that the most incredible amount of stuff, the hugest amount of stuff and donations came from Jennifer Lopez. She went in her own closet and donated tons and tons of stuff from her kids, from herself, so that was pretty cool. Megan Markel donated clothing and beauty products to teen girls. State Farm was supposed to do a insurance add for Super Bowl and they have decided that they are going to cancel it. They're like California's biggest insurance company, so they've decided probably not the best thing to do right now, so they are deleting that commercial and they're not going to do that commercial during Super Bowl.
You know, Danielle, there's a lot of institutions, organizations out there who are doing great things. Oh yeah, for Los Angeles and all the people affected. And I found one I want to talk about today, the show Music Cares.
Oh yeah, we love nice.
You know what. They want to take care of people in the music industry. And when you talk about music industry, you're not talking about just Beyonce. You're talking about people who drive tour buses, people who work backstage, people who take tickets at shows, people, people who write songs, people who help, you know, produce videos, and their families. Yeah, and it's not only just the things that they've lost in the fire. There's also mental health issues that need to be paid for. That a lot needs to be paid for. And since Los Angeles, you know, is basically the hub of all most of the people you hear when we play a song, yep, I think they need our attention. We'll get into that one. Okay.
So you've seen a lot of celebrities out and about hugging people, helping people. Kelly Osborne thinks that it's a bunch of bs and that it's for publicity. She said, Is it me being my usual usual cynical self, or is it really disturbing seeing these celebrities using other people's pain and suffering as a photo op to say hey, I'm helping over here, I'm doing this, I'm getting things done, so I don't know. I don't know.
I get torn on.
When I win one hundred dollars, yes, I will donate that to music cares.
Okay, are you doing that just because you want to be that? But I'm kidding.
I take it back. I'm not going to get your money because someone will think I'm doing it for all the wrong reasons.
All right, let's talk about Josh Gad, you know him as oh Off. He has a new book out. It's called In Gad We Trust, and he talks about the original Frozen two screenplay, saying it was so brutal that they had to rewrite it. He said, first of all, he started recording the dialogue and he couldn't keep it together. He was crying so much. He said. Then, the first testing that they did of the screening, the adults loved it, but the kids were so confused, so sad, and they were so upset. They were traumatized by it. So he's like, we know, because I think originally Olaf was going to die and not come back to life. You know, if you saw it, I think else's powers. I don't want to I'm not going to spoil it, but anyway, I'm just saying it had to be rewritten because the kids were totally traumatized by the death of Olaf.
I'm just saying, when did Disney start caring about traumatizing children with deaths of the.
Favorite character with Bambi by baby's dad, mom, mom.
Mom, Well most of the times it is the mom in the Disney movies.
Mufassa came along and then I was just, oh my god.
Beyonce postponed a big announcement spoiler sorry, spoiler alert, Like you guys remember beyond A postponed a big announcement plan for Tuesday because of the Los Angeles fires. Well, since then, fans have been getting like notifications about a concert at Chicago's Soldier Field on September twelfth. So now they're thinking, well, wait a minute, this probably accidentally came out. We weren't supposed to find out about this. These texts went out, these alerts went out. They're thinking it's a tour because this is a stadium, so who knows, we'll see keep you posted on that because we'll find out eventually. Serious premiere of The Hollywood Squares is on tonight. That's the brand new one Long Order returns tonight. The fifty fifth season premiere of Sesame Street on Max. You also have SNL fifty beyond Saturday Night Live. It's a behind the scenes a limited series. So that could be fun. And that is my Danielle report.
Who are you texting everybody? Are you texting Garrett right now?
No?
Do not text Garrett. I did not text Garrett, okay, because I know you. I know.
Wait, why did I text Garrett?
Because Garrett's pulling the sound from what happened a minute ago. I could see you go ahead edit it, so I'm run Oh no, exactly, That's exactly what I would do if I knew I was wrong.
No, I swear to god, I'm not texting Garrett. Ask Garrett.
I told him, do not edit it.
Don't edit it all unless it's you guys.
You know Gandhi. You know that's something she would do.
Yes, but that's exactly that's because he's a troublemaker. That's why.
Yes.
Anyway, so he was dumped, so no one heard the story. May I tell the story about someone? You want to tell the name?
I will.
We're all sitting around my kitchen table in Santa Fe. There were five of us eating pizza, and we found out that a friend of ours who does not work in the show. You never heard of him, you don't know it, he dropped a hit of acid and he was tripping at the table. We weren't even drinking. I had, like, I think I was drinking a diet coke and he starts seeing things flying through the air. We're like, what are you doing? Well? I thought y'all wanted some acid? I said, no, no one here wants acid. Nowhere wants I mean, that was crazy.
What's so funny?
Everyone's reaction to it was completely different. So there was another friend there who was like, you don't drop acid at someone's house by yourself.
That's insane.
It is I thought it was hilarious, just because he was laughing the entire time, staring at the ceiling.
And then he ran away. He left, he did, He said he was going to the bathroom.
Twenty minutes later he wasn't back, and all of a sudd what where did he go? We start walking around the house yelling for him. We noticed his shoes were gone. Oh no, he disappeared.
We found him out in the woods.
He was in the pine woods with all with all the coyotes and the mountain lions in the dark. I wanted to get back to nature. Get your ass in the house. So don't do acids.
Kids, don't do acid.
Well, don't do acid by yourself. Right, And if you had locked the door.
Oh my god.
It was so funny.
We were yelling for him out in the woods, and all of a sudden we just hear very faint.
The strangest things. We need. We need another book. We got to write a book, all right. Hey. So the other day Gandhi gave us a great game called skip It, Skip it, like that one song that comes on and you're like, oh, skip it, and you go right past it. We had a lot of great players and they guessed the songs we were playing, the songs that we think should be skipped. Now, on the opposite side of that, she has a game called crank It.
Crank it.
So yeah, so I asked all of you, what is a song that, if it comes on, you will crank this up and sing along?
And I got all of your answers.
All right, So these are the songs that members of our show feel. You always have to turn them up and crank.
When you say crank it, I think of Nate sitting in his little you know what station.
Yes, the crank it station, the crank it station. I can't believe you're talking about them in public anyway.
So crank it.
Let's do it. Let's do it right now. So if you're good at music, especially music that we love, who figures just figure call us now eight hundred two four to two zero one.

But Danielle met all these people from all around the country. You know, this is the time of year people like to save a little money after the holidays to come to New York because you can't you can say money getting here. You can save money on hottel rooms whatever. Yeah, you met people from Kansas.
Yeah, it was awesome. We were at this pub O'donnah Hughes in Times Square and we met like people. Some people were local than. We met some people from like I think Kentucky, from like all over the place, and we were chatting about what we were doing and what we were eating and recommending food to each other and places to go. It was so nice. And we both walked out, My husband and I walked down and we were like, gosh, we met the nicest people today. This with everybody was so friendly.
He do you think they said the same thing about you?
I hope so I wish might to be nice.
You know what.
A lot of people who come to New York for the very first time, they're like, oh, we were afraid to come because we heard the people here are so mean.
No, no, no, we're very nice.
So they're not mean here. They're mean in Boston. They're not mean here.
What do you mean by that?
People here?
I think people here are efficient, so they move really quickly. If you ask somebody for directions, they'll answer. They're not going to small talk with you to the point, and they will give you the right directions.
Right. But we are to the point. Yeah, I'm not saying you be to the point.
I'm saying we'll be in New York to the point, to the point. Yeah, in Boston. They will not only be rude to you, they will send you in the wrong direction. So I mean that's those are the meanies.
Wow.
They call them massholes for a reason.

Hey, look, we gotta get into the three things you need to know from Gandhi. We do have a one thousand dollars free money phone tap on the way coming up in a few minutes. Let's go Gandhi. What's going on?
All right?
Let's start in La CRUs are making some progress on the Los Angeles wildfires as the winds died down in southern California, but red flag warnings have also expired for much of that area. Crews have been able to get a handle on two of the major fires. At last chech, the Palisades Fire in western Los Angeles was twenty one percent contained, while the Eton Fire east of La was forty five percent contained. Over eighty thousand people will still under evacuation notices. We know that some areas are dealing with mudslides. And I don't know if you guys have seen any of the stories about price gouging, price gouging and some of the other horrible things that landlords are like raising rents out there now exponentially.
It's pretty crazy, isn't the very sad? Yeah, it's not great at all.
Surprised anyone?
No, I just want to believe that people help during these times, But.
I guess not all right.
The FDA is banning red dye number three in food, drinks, and ingested drugs. Yesterday's move comes more than thirty years after scientists found links between the dye, which is made from petroleum, and cancer and animals. Red dye number three is added to foods and beverages to give them an appealing cherry color. Manufacturers that use the additive are being given two years to remove it and reformulate those products. Red dye number three has been banned in California since October of twenty twenty three.
You know, if you want that cherry color, use a cherry.
Yeah, well, I don't understand. And why is it so important we need that color?
Yeah, cherry's I guess the real cherry color just isn't cherry enough.
Maybe not shameful, but hopefully it's going away now. And finally, let's talk some more about food. The FDA is proposing a new rule aimed at helping shoppers make healthier choices. The proposed new rule would require new labels on the front of food packaging that shows information including whether a product has low, medium, or high amounts of sodium, saturated fat, or added sugar. It would complement the nutrition facts label that's already required on most packaged food.
But now it's going to be in the front. And those are your three things.
Elvis Duran, who on a piece of bread. Maybe you'll calm down a.
Little, and the Morning show, go Elvis Duran and the Morning Show.
I'm never bringing my soup in ever again. Why you guys don't eat any where even?
Is it?
That's right there?
Oh?
I just saw it when I passed. I passed them.
Oh I didn't see I look for it this morning.
It's really good, Okay. I make my own broth. It's four hours, three whole chickens, all these vegetables. I make these my broth. And then I make my own a little little meatball, and I use chicken because I know people don't like beef.
And everything is nice of you.
Chicken, sausage, chicken. It's good.
I'll make some next break soup I'm gonna get something, have a sip.
Not the whole thing anyway. So tomorrow is Nate's birthday. And so last night I said, you know, I'm gonna be in studio. I said, I'm gonna be there for your birthday. He said, it's not my birthday. I don't have a birthday. We all have a birthday.
You have a birthday.
You can't stop it. Well, we all have one. We all can choose to recognize it and celebrate it. Does this go back to a painful moment? And your child know this story? Me sitting in the garage play with my match box cars. Well, my parents and family had a birthday party for me in another room, in another room because you're allergic to the dog.
I have a hard time with this story.
I don't know if it's one hundred percent true. That's my memory, by it, that's my memory, remember sitting there, played with my matchbox.
Car's going to do that to you. We're not going to put you scarred me.
That's this is why I am how I am. And there's a other people that don't like celebrating their birthdays. You're right, you're not alone. But I mean, but we do love you, and we want to and I love you. We don't choose that one day of the year we're gonna be nice to you, because.
If you have the taday, you might as well celebrate it. What's the alternative, right, You're right?
Yeah, so I've actually read to Nate's point here that it is better for your body and your mind not to celebrate birthdays because when you do that, you're aging yourself because your mind is so powerful. So if you don't acknowledge certain things, then your body doesn't go with it.
But that's if you give a crap about how old do I like?
No, it's about actual like aging, your actual internal and your brain.
The internal let me tell you, Yeah, the internal dialogue is using you.
I'm celebrating every year. I don't give a crap.
No, that's great.
But I'm saying if he doesn't want to, he has lots of reasons why you couldn't.
Well, then okay, okay, would you to be fair, would you rather it's just not acknowledge it or havepy birthday?
Man?
And move on? Can we not say if you don't want it to be the elephant in the room?
So do you not want Krispy Kreme tomorrow because if that's the.
Like one, Yeah, should I put those Should I put those cokies away that you already started eating today? That's preparing me. I can't just go into like full sugar mode tomorrow. I gotta have a little something today. I mean, at the end of the day, if it's your birthday, it is your birthday, and so how dare we project what we think it should be on to you when it it's your day? It really is? And I appreciate that. It's nice to see people actually care about me. I don't know if that is probably gonna come out in therapy at some point, but it's nice to see people actually eat too late, you're already affected. So yeah, what a happy birthday? Thank you?
Say it tomorrow.
How about we had like we have like we appreciate you Nate day. It so happens it falls onto appreciate Nate. That would be nice too. I do like being appreciated.
And we also just acknowledge really quickly that he has already quit his quitting of sugar.
Yeah, he aouked it, he quit quitting.
I mean, if you're dangling donuts in front of me, I can't not have one. That's bad luck.
You can't quit something.
You never I go on break break. We did not. We did not hover in front of you with that box of cookies that you ripped open and you tore the box in half just to get to them, and based a hermetically sealed bag. You really got to get in there.
And then I heard he yelled at Andrew for not taking the cookies away from him even the last time he failed, and.
He was asleep at the switch. You know me, I'm not going to stand in your in your way. I'm not. I'm not going to stand between Nate and Sugar. What are you crazy? He'll bite your head off. All right, we have to get into a phone tap in a few moments worth one thousand dollars tomorrow. We're all excited that Joeyfotone is coming in Joy Fotone, the nice one.
Many of them are nice.
He's the best, Yeah he is. He is the best, without doubt, and he does all the fun stuff. I want to talk to Joey Fatone about how you know. After he the band broke up whatever, they went their separate ways. He continued to do fun things like hosting game shows, going on the costume show whatever they do.
Yeah, acting acting now and Juliet and.
Juliette on Broadway. This is his third I do believe his third Broadway show Shop. So Joey Fotone will be on tomorrow to talk about joining the cast of and at Juliette. Another reason to fly to New York City and come see a show. So I was thinking, you know, I wanted to get some of my friends together, get it like like six seats in a row while it's still early. So we go, all go see Joey Fatone. Two of my friends are really good friends with Joey Fatone. They grew up with him in Brooklyn and they're my best friends too. So I was gonna invite those best friends their husbands, and I was gonna take Alex. We're gonna do, like, you know, six gay guys watching Joey Fatone on stage and then maybe go out back stage and see him, maybe take him out to dinner. So does this happened to you? But it does? I go on text, I say, all five of you, here's my plan. Pick a date. The next nine weeks, We're gonna go see Joy Fotone. I'm gonna get his tickets. We're gonna go have dinner here. They go, well, I can't do it February second, but I can do it Forebruy third. I can't do it February third because February third, I've got a mom. I can't do it February second because I'm you know, I'm designing a wedding. You know, I can't do it. I have a meeting on the number fifth. I didn't even give them a date. But it goes back and forth, and finally I said, never mind, we're not going together. I'm not I'm not going to put that out there ever. Again, I'm not going to try to plan. It's frustrating.
I think at some point you just have to pick. You have to pick the date and say, whoever can make it, let me know, wonderful.
Well I do that here a lot, and it backfires a lot. Oh, because so there's always because look, we have fifteen people on the show, right, obviously, there's always going to be someone who has something on the calendar. I get that, Yeah, but you're right, though, it's better just to plan it. If I'm the only one sitting there in fifteen plates around me are empty, fine, it's me. It's a party of one.
Absolutely pick it fe farm or else you're going to drive yourself insane. But there's also a little app called Calendly where you can just send a calendar and everybody can put like mark this date works for me, and you don't have to look at it until you want to look at it.
What a great idea. What's it called calendly? Calendly? But what did I say to my to you and my text about these my friends?
I forget it.
I don't know. That's not what I said.
I hate gay guys.
You not that you a bunch of queens. Can we just get this together? I'm trying, you know, I'm buying tickets, I'm taking us to dinner. I can't go out because I'm gonna wash my hair that night. Okay, great?
And then you're talking about how much work exactly?
I can't I got plates, especially since you're buying they should actually be like, you know what, I'm going to rearrange my other plans.
Well, you can't always rearrange your other plan.
You can't. But I'm tired of being the planner.
Don't be it.
Let let me be the planner.
Oh, God.
I think planning has also taken years off of Andrew's life because he's the person who has to try and organize things for us.
He's paid to do that. It's his job, it is, it's his career. He has chosen a career in planning.
He did.
Yeah, he paid. He cans paid a lot of money to sit there and put up with our crap. How much, I mean, never enough? What other announcements do we have? I didn't scat yesterday. I need a scat. Oh yeah, Oh God, don't even ask you about what happened last night.
Speaking of.
What happened last night, Oh, I.
Told you the story.
I know.
I ate something. I ate dinner. It was dinner, And at two thirty this morning, I crawled to the bathroom really and I was in a cold sweat, almost fainted on the toilet. Like the other Elvis who died on the toilet. He did that always. Presley died right there.
Wait a minute, so then, what did you want it for breakfast? Because you may.
Want to see I'm good now.
You're worried about eating their Chick fil a chicken biscuit that was twenty four hours old. I did just fine. Yesterday, I had no problems whatsoever.
People were asking how you're doing. You ate the twenty four hour old chicken on the biscuit from Chick fil A. You're doing fine. Yeah. I eat not one but two of them, and I'm just fine. No episode, No, because you're gonna tell you last night I evacuated the dance floor. You had an episode, which is a great song. By the way, I would create that up. You made the dance floor. We're really too late to play that right now. Scary.
Right after he told me how bad it was and he was sweating, and he's like, I thought I was gonna slide off the toilet.
I was sweating, so it was so bad. He's like, so breakfast, I.
Totally we sent lost three pounds. I'm good.
Oh god, no anything caused it. You don't have any idea.
I think it was dinner plus plus. You know, I'm with go ving it or whatever that is, so I'm not eating as much. I ate a lot yesterday. Yeah, that's probably spicy Indian food for dinner that I had to buy the ice cream lactose boom. You know what I'm saying.
You really attacked yourself.

Elvis Duran, the Elvis Duran phone tap.
Gar Yes, all right ahead. So Grace wants to phone tap her dad and Mike. Now Dad finally caved into the family's request and finally let Grace get a dog. Now, the one rule is if you get a dog, you got to take care of it, feed it, walk it, all that stuff. So I'm going to start the call to Dad as the dog walker from inside the house.
Okay, good, go bad. Let's see what the Garrett's phone town.
Is this Mikeness min yep, this is the number that's on the emergency contact list on the refrigerator.
So I can't get in touch with Gracie.
What emergency contact? What are you talking about?
Okay, I was hired a couple months ago to take Spot on afternoon walks. There was a big mess in the living room before I got Spot out. He was very excited to see me.
Kind of wait, wait a second, you were in my house and you're walking my daughter's dog right now.
Yes, who Gracie has never talked about me.
No, she walks the dog Eibby day.
No, I've been walking the dog every day for the last two months.
When and who are you?
My name's George Feeney. I met your daughter on this dating app. She swiped my way. She asked if I walked dogs. I don't, but I thought you was very attractive and I thought this was my way in to get a date, which I still have in yet. It's been two months, but I'm now walking dogs. I just need to know where the poop bags are.
Well look, look, look, my daughter has not said anything to me about this. I think you're making this whole thing up. I think you're full of Get the out of my house right now.
Two things real quick.
One, if you can put a good word in with me with Gracie for a date.
And two you don't want anyone cleaning up the poop?
Are you talking?
Get out of my house right now. I'm not putting in anything right with you for anybody?
All right, out.
O god?
All right, oh my god.
Here's what I want you to do. Okay, let's give that a minute. I want you to call him and act like you have no idea. He found out about the dog walker?
Okay, yeah, okay, come Dad, where.
Are you right now?
I'm out.
Some guy just called me and said that he's in our house right now to walk the dog, and say, took a bump on the living room floor and he's waiting in the house. Hire some freak to walk a dog.
Yes he's not, No, he's not a freaked out.
Yes, I hired someone to walk the dog.
It's not gonna be you. Should you're gonna be the one to walk the dog? How will you hire when somebody tell you what do you mind?
It's very entreprenurial of me, Dad, You should be really proud of me right now instead of yelling at me.
Okay, So my.
Plan is, are you from you're stringing this guy a walk? To walk the dog. He's some kind of nuts. He could be a stalker. Who knows what's gonna go on. You can't let him have the key to a house, and you can't be shrinking him along either. What are you doing? I thought you were responsible about this. It's not being responible. It's the same thing as you're getting someone from Obi wawn.
No, what's gone?
You're letting them walk around our house and you're not even paying him. I hire people, it's a job.
So if he can't walk the dog, then will you walk and you get home?
Oh my god, you're gonna give me an anneurisom here. You've lost your mind. I don't even know who I'm speaking to him anymore. What is wrong with you? Gracie? You gotta want to grow up? You're nineteenth?
He is?

Show, Wow down the Hall. About an hour ago, our friends at DJ Nvy and Charlamagne and the Breakfast Club at Power, they had Wendy Williams.
On Wendy Williams.
How fantastic is that?
I mean, wanting to know where she is, what she's doing exactly?
There you go, And now they have the hashtag I know, and we just posted hashtag free Free Wendy.
Yeah, and she talked about where she is. She feels like she's not being held prisoner, but she's being held there for the wrong reasons.
She says, I feel like I am in prison.
She feels like she is in prison.
She said, I'm in this place where the people are in their nineties, their eighties. There's something wrong with these people. There's high security. I can only make calls. Nobody can call me, won't allow me to leave or have visitors.
I want to get sound. I'm going to play it. We're gonna get it, I know, but leave it to leave it to them to get this interview with Wendy. You know, Charloamagne was an intern for her years ago than as a producer. Then they had a falling out. Remember we had Wendy Williams on our show and I said, God, remember Charlemagne used to work with him. She looked at me right in the eye and said, I don't know what you were talking about. Okay, so what else can we talk about? So, you know, we were friendly with Wendy. I was friends with her, at dinner with her a couple of times. And then you know, I don't know if you saw the documentaries, but it was very sad now that all ended the last documentary, but I'm glad they talked to her. I can't wait to hear what she had to say. Yeah, yeah, you know, well, good for them, good for her people get he heard her voice email corporate email. I would rather take an ice pick and gallut my eyeballs out than read email from anyone in this company or any company. It's not just us. I don't want to read anything an email.
It is.
I don't want to do it. That's why we hired Nate's how this conversation came to be. So you received some email from someone in iHeart. I mean, this is a massive company, a company, a lot of people working hard to keep us, keep us rolling. I get that. Yeah, yeah, Diamond and I were actually on this email and we were talking about it, and the person was asking for something like really what it was a common sense email? Like if you had common sense, what do they say? I'm not even going to get into it, but if you could figure it out, you could figure it out yourself, right to read it out loud now, so that I'm like, you know what I do, Diamond. When I see somebody that I don't really know send me something like this, I look up their picture on LinkedIn to see how big of any actually are. Ye see what they look at and I did the same thing yea on LinkedIn. I mean they know you're looking at them. They do. So maybe someone who said, you know I did on my LinkedIn Just so you.
Know, it doesn't matter.
No, you could go incognito.
Do you have to pay for that?
No? But you don't get to see who looks you up either.
Yeah, it's like good, but am I right?
That's it?
We did the same thing. Okay, so you look this person up and did the person match the profile of what you were? Yeah? And then you start putting the qualities to that face and.
Like, oh, they look like a moron.
But but I'm not the only person.
That does I do it all the time, and I do this on Instagram and stuff. If somebody leaves like a nasty comment, I'm like, let me go and check.
Let me go check them out first.
And then you look at them and you go, okay, do.
You know where I do? You know where I do this? And I bet you do it too. If some idiot cuts you off in traffic, you've got to see what if someone's driving like a total a hole? Have they cut you off or have there been aggressive with other people? And you catch up to me. You got to see what they look like.
Do you stare at them or do you just take a quick glance?
No, no, no.
I'm very careful about about car fights because people have guns. I don't want to get in that. I just I just want to get a glimpse at the a hole that's driving that super over there. I just wanted to see who's so stupid to do that exactly.
I always feel bad though, because sometimes you pull up and it's a really old person and they so much range and there you are not.
Even really I was finding this guy one time or woman whatever in this car and they were driving all over the road and ever trying to drive. Every time I tried to pass, they would speed up. Okay, I'll get back in my lane because I hate being in the passing lane when I'm not passing right, thank you. Everyone should do that, by the if you're in the passing lane right now, you're not passing someone. Get get out of that. Anyway, this car was all over the place and it was happening for a long time. Finally I caught up with him.
It was a nun.
Did you feel guilty?
God? Heard what I said about this? Woman. I'm like you, stupid mother. It was a nun, a lady of the cloth, sometimes a lady of a cloth.
Yeah, I would.
I guess she's wearing cloth. Yeah.
I always think it's like an old lady who can't see over the steering wheel. Like, dude, That's why I always think we really should get retested at a certain time, you know, in our lives, you know, without a doubt, still dry.
No doubt. You know, Look, nuns. I do show respect for nuns. I mean, even though they have that holier than thou attitude. Truly, you know, she was very short. You could see her habit a little above the steering wheel.
My gosh.
But yeah, you get these emails from you get this email from people you don't know, Like, okay, I need to see what they look like.
I'm going to who the how was this telling me what to do?
What? Yeah?
But on the other side, what if it's someone Oh they're hot? Never mind, I won't excuse the stupidity in the email.
Have you encountered that?
Yes? Oh, not an email form, but in another form?
Yeah, okay, okay, yeah.
Yeah, what's scary?
You know, sometimes if I find out somebody who curses me out somewhere on a text message. I'll find ways to see if they ever gave us their name in a previous text, and then I'll try and look them up on Instagram because I need to.
See what they don't give away secrets.
Wild I want I personally.
I gave were secrets. So someone will send us a text and I'll go your pieces of crap. I hate your show. You should all find another job. I'll look at their history and maybe like a month ago, they said, Hi, my name is Brian. I just want to know if you so I'll text them back, Hey Brian, because we get their number. Yeah, how about Brian, So it seems like a month ago, when you're having problems with your girlfriend who cheated on you, you had no problem texting us.
Then, Yeah, would be nice.
Could we see your entire history?
Yeah, we do.
We see everything you've said to us in the past.
Brian started fascinating. It is because we are.
But we also get hundreds of really positive, nice messages all the time, hundreds of really nice comments all the time.
Yeah, and nobody goes down the rabbit hole. Let me see who that.
Person was, because they're just so kind. One bad one, and we're like, I'm a detective. A text here is clear the desk golf because I'm gonna find you.
There are some I do look up that are nice. Okay, Like the other day some guy said, gosh, you know what, I'm gay, guy, I just broke up with my boyfriend. I don't know if ever you want to go out and have dinner or whatever. I'm like, well, I can't have dinner because I'm married.
Whatever.
Let me see what's door behind door number two the when I turned down. Let me see what I'm missing. Diamond. Are you paying attention to this conversation?
Oh for sure?
Yeah, I got a Lissa here. You'll see what Alyssa has to say. Hello Alyssa. Hello, No, it says here Alyssa wants to say. It wants to say, oh crap, wait what happened?
Oh my god.
I had no idea till just right now that when you look somebody up on LinkedIn, they can see that.
Yeah, well I'm hearing sometimes they don't. I always thought they did if you're signed in, but if you're not. If you're not signed in, you don't. You don't get all the information though, right, I mean, oh.
No, I've been signed in. I had no idea. I creep on people all the time, had no idea that they could see I'm doing that.
Yeah they can, Okay, well living what kind of person and I've gone to you're gonna go I do? What kind of person goes and checks the who check me out? List?
I would if I could.
I don't.
I don't really use LinkedIn at all, and I don't care who's looking me up over there because it's all professional stuff.
I an't whatever.
But if I could see who was actually stocking me on other social media apps, I would like to look because I have a feeling it's people who don't even follow me, who are from the past, who just.
Check in on you, and I love to know that I'm living in their brains. I'd be great.
Well, so keep in mind on LISTA you can also see who's checking you out at the same time.
Yeah.
Yeah, I had no idea, same as Gandhi. I don't really use LinkedIn. I kind of just made one to creep on other people and feel.
Like this is like from the early days of posting stories on Instagram, I didn't know if you want someone's story, they know you watched it. Yes, Oh well, well I had some people I definitely I definitely don't want to know. I want them to know looking at them because there's there's issues. Then I learned that lessen the hard way there.
And the hard one about that is too with us.
There are most people have a lot of followers, so you're not gonna go look who watched your story because there's so many people.
That's insane. But there's usually too many people.
But if you only have a thousand followers or a couple of hundred followers, you're probably checking out all the time.
And you busted us.
They just actually extended to see like the LinkedIn style, so if somebody even goes to your profile you could see it.
Extend that to Instagram let me know.
No, god, no, don't see how many times someone watched that story too.
There's a frequent flyer list, like who checks out my profile the most?
Did we do?
Danielle? No, Look, thank you for calling. I appreciate it. And yeah, keep in mind you think you're watching them, you are, but they're watching you two.
I'm glad we can help you.
All right, Thanks for calling, Liz. Thank guy, you have a good day to h Danielle do the Daniel reports, Danielle report. Then we got Gandhi three things. Then we got to I may have to scare right here on the air, scoop scatschetop. We meet scat later if we have time for sketch okay, as they say, there's always time for skeatch. Oh, I'm sorry, this is dessert. Daniel You're at first. What's going on?
All right?
So?
Renee Zeweger shared with The British Vogue that her six year acting hiatus was necessary to step away from her own voice and emotions. She said during the break she explored other hobbies like writing music, studying things, rescuing some dogs. She started a production company, but she said she really wanted to reconnect with people, and apparently she hated her own voice and she couldn't didn't want to be you know, you get sick of the sound of your own voice and then you step away. Let me tell you, we all feel that way anytime we hear ourselves on air. We hate the way we sound.
I don't sound like whatever everyone else hears.
Now because we don't hear us like other people.
Exactly, I hear it, I go oh god, oh, my gosh, no, so it's only been out for about three weeks.
Maybe.
Season two of Quid already the third most watched season for a series in the history of Netflix, over one hundred and fifty two million views. So congratulations, there has anybody in here seen it yet?
I started it?
You did?
I didn't start Squid game two.
I started it. I had to turn it off. Really I got bored with it?
Oh okay, all right. Season thirteen of The Masked Singer is almost upon us and Fox just released a promo. It teases some of the upcoming Masked contestants. So the premiere will introduce five new singers competing for the Golden Mass Trophy. First up, Aunt Coral, Paparazzo, Fuzzy Peas, and Honeypot. Those are the first contestants on The Mass Singer.
I'm trying to think what those costumes look like.
Well, Fuzzy Peas in my head is something, probably not what it is. And Honeypots. The new season's kicking off February twelfth. Drake issuing his own label Universal Music for defamation because they promoted Kendrick Lamar's dis track Not Like Us, which calls Drake a pedophile. So he is not happy with them. He says they approved it, they published it, they launched a campaign to create a viral hit of the song, and so he is not a happy camper with them, and he is suing them for defamation. So we've been talking about a lot about what's been going on obviously in Los Angeles and Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt, you know, they lost everything. They were on Good Morning America to talk about how it was evacuating their home and she was saying that Spencer said to her, grab anything you want to keep, and she said, oh my gosh, how do you choose? Think about that? You're you have to just take the important stuff. How do you having it?
Maybe an hour?
Right?
And how about this? They were dropped by insurers right before the fire broke out.
That's happened to a lot of people.
There are a lot of stories about this, and I cannot see that this is gonna go well.
That's so that like, but that makes me go here.
You know.
By the way, did you guys see the footage of people walking around starting new fires? I mean, ah, what do you even say? People are just dumbasses? Dogy Cat has teamed up with the Red Cross to launch a limited edition merchandise collection fashion illustrator and designer Peenie. There's hoodies, there's t shirts, and of course they're for a good cause. Area are going to help California out. So if you want that, you can check those out. What are we watching? The series premiere of The Hollywood Squares. It's the reboot. There, Drew Barrymore is the Center Square. Lown Orner is back. The fifty fifth season premiere of Sesame Street on Max and the premiere of the Behind the Scenes limited series SNL fifty Beyond Saturday Night Live Over on Peacock. And that is my Daniel.
Now, the three things we need to know for did I scare you? The three things we need to know from Gandhi? Gandhi, what's going on all right?
CalFire says that crews are making progress on the Los Angeles wildfires as the winds died down now a bit over southern California. Red flag warnings expired for most of the area last night, which allowed crews to get a handle on two of the major fires. At last check, the Palisades Fire in western LA was twenty one percent contained. While the Eton Fire east of LA was forty five percent contained. Governor Gavin Newsom says hazmat cruise from the EPA will begin clearing debris from burnt out neighborhoods starting today. A big chunk of the US is now bracing for below zero weather as a polar vortex dips into the lower forty eight states. Forecasters say temperatures could plunge thirty five degrees below average across the US this month, and it's going to start this weekend. Below zero temperatures are possible in the week ahead from Maine all the way to Idaho. Freezing temperatures in the southeast could be a significant departure from the usual January weather. On Inauguration Day, Washington, DC is expecting a high temperature of only twenty eight degrees, Dallas could see a high of thirty four degrees Monday, and Minneapolis expecting a high of negative two. And finally, we mentioned this earlier, but it's pretty interesting. A Detroit school district is paying students to show up for class.
Repeat that, I want everyone to hear what they're doing.
A Detroit school district is paying students to show up for class. Officials at Detroit Public Schools Community District say high school students who get perfect attendance will be paid two hundred dollars every other week. Officials say the initiative is being put into place to combat chronic absenteeism. Students are eligible to receive up to one thousand dollars if they don't miss any classes in five different two week periods between now.
And March twenty first. I hate it.
It's so sad to me that people are not attending school. I would love to see the research behind what's going on and why.
I just don't. I can't wrap my head around paying people to go to school. It's crazy.
Well, there you go, and there's your three things. Thank you.

Yeah, because I heated up some of the soup that you made and I left it in the microwave, our little like private microwave over here, and I haven't been able to go back and get it yet.
Can I get it right now?
I think you can rewarm it again.
Yeah, I will you good, But you're gonna miss out some on some import.
Wait.
Wait, you know I would do a fresh match if you put a little check and meatball in there. It probably it's gonna get tough. I'm looking out for you. There's plenty of there. But you know you'll like it. You'll love bras. Anyway, we're about to get into sound with Garrett in a few minutes. And as we told you earlier, Wendy Williams an exclusive with Wendy Williams down the Hall with DJ Envy and Charlemagne and the Breakfast Club, and we're gonna hear.
Some of it.
We're gonna play some of it for you. I mean, the same company, right, Happy how do you. We're giving tons of credit and uh yeah, it gets pretty emotional. So we're gonna have that for you coming up in a second. Also in Food News in a few minutes, Froggy, I heard that you're using Scottie b as a special serial correspondent. Is this true?
You heard correct?
What is the cereal you gave me? I needed something sweet? What is this?
Oh?
That's a sugar cookie toast Crunch. It was out for the holidays. You can get it on the clearance rack.
Now.
I love clearance rack cereal.
It's good.
I love how the first word is sugar.
It is.
Are honest from the Toast Crunch family.
I love that. Okay, so we have Food News on the way as well. Let's just get into a sound now, Garrett, you want to start with Wendy. Yeah, let's start with the Breakfast Club.
So they just posted this interview with Wendy Williams that they had Wendy on the phone and her niece on zoom, so they're both a part of the interview.
I just want to say something. You know, we've known Wendy for many, many years. Of course, Charlomage is known it for a lot of years, but friends with her. She's been on the show, she was on the show many times, had dinner with her, dinner parties with her.
And growing up a girl in New York, Wendy was one of my idols. She's like someone I always looked up to. I remember when I first actually met her in person, it was like, oh my gosh.
Wow.
And it's interesting because the stories we've heard that is when Wendy is not with it, she's out of it. Listen to this interview. You cannot tell anything. Those stories feel false.
Okay, well, let's just go right to the sound. Did you want to say something?
No, I thought you were still saying something.
I was.
Ok.
Let's Wendy talk. Let Wendy talk. This is Wendy Williams played this morning on an interview they did yesterday afternoon, actually on the Breakfast Club.
Here we go, first of all, to start with my niece. Alex knows a lot as well. You know, but I am not cognitively impaired. You know what I'm saying. No, but I feel like I am in prison. You understand what I'm saying. I'm in New York City, right and you know exactly what you're talking about you flew from Miami to New York and you were right here with me.
Go ahead.
She's there in New York in this place essentially like what to call a luxury prison.
This is her room.
That's all her apartment.
But the thing about this apartment, and you know that's not one because you're there. It's like she has a bed, a chair, a TV, a bathroom and she's looking out one window.
And excuse me, through my money, you know, I have this person by the TV. You know, the kind of TV I like, through this person because all of my stuff is in storage. Do you understand what I'm saying? Everything's in storage. And by the way, that was to sell my apartment. But anyway, is.
The person your guardian? Is that who you're referring to your guardian?
Yes?
Well, and there's more We're gonna play you somewhere here. It really really makes me sad to hear her, even though she does sound good here right. Yeah. The last time we saw her was on that documentary, the last one that came out, and it was the saddest of sad documentary, Harry.
And the crappy part is that they're like, oh, she signed on for this documentary. Yeah, well, she obviously didn't know what she was doing. She would not want to be represented that way. It's awful.
And this is what the next clip is about.
Her and the conservator actually sat down and watched the documentary together.
Me and the person that you were just talking about is guardian person. We watched that four part thing on TV together.
She was the one who wanted to do that.
So I'm watching and writing things down, and she's watching and writing things down, and I saw her or I saw all of.
That, by the way, And.
What do I think about being abused? Look, this system is broken, this system that I'm in. You know, this system has falsified ooh a lot. You know what I'm saying.
You know, I said, you're cognitively impaired and your inkle passating.
Do I see that way?
You've been calling me five times a day for the last two weeks.
No, you don't seem that way. Seems great to me. You know what, if it comes to a physical disability, it's so easy. It's plain to see. Oh, well, they have no legs, they cannot walk. We will make accommodations for them. When it comes to mental issues, we don't know all we are known. All we know is what we're told.
You know, there's a couple of airs to this too, because we do know, and she's admitted and we all saw it. She had issues with substance abuse, and if at the time this was all being filmed, that was also part of it. Way too much alcohol, of course, that's going to affect your cognitive ability and could look like something else. Maybe she needs to be reevaluated again.
Maybe after a reevaluation. Absolutely, I'm revable, reevaluated by some reevaluated by someone else other than these people. Right about how about it? You know a day she can go for a walk, get out of that plate.
Yeah, absolutely exactly. And she has graves disease to it, and everybody's like, oh her eyes wrong, she has she has it's a thyroid issue. She has talked about it openly. We've known about it for years. That's one of the symptoms.
So before the last clips, she can't even go visit her ninety four year old father who is celebrating birthday in Miami. She's not allowed the Guardian will allow her to do so. And after that, Charlemagne asked, will there be any backlash from you doing this interview.
Alex, Alex, do you think you think that there'll be some type of there'll be some type of retaliation from the Guardian because of you know, maybe this phone call or because of yeah.
Wow, we've talked about that, you know, my aunt even with her one to come on, we talked about all scenarios. I said, you know, do this, You're ready for what's on the other side. And as she said, I have to do this. There's nothing else I could do. At this point, she's prepared for the fact that her phone might be taken away phone anybody. Yeah, and you know you all what you're hearing now. This is a few minute clip of what we've been dealing with for the last several months and the last she can get moved and we may not even know where she's where she is. That was the reality of where she was during the documentary.
So thank you very much to dj NV and of course Charlotte Baye and our friends at Power went O five down the hall for letting us play that even though they didn't know we played it. And you know what, and to be perfectly transparent, we don't know everything, but we does. We just know what we're being I have.
A question, though, what's that? How does it? Like, how does a conservativeship happen? And maybe nobody in his room knows, Like how do they decide who the person is that gets to be in charge of her?
Like?
Why why was that person given the title that it's a.
Medical it's a medical thing than a court thing, isn't it? Is it not? I mean it's it's legal and it's evaluation by people who are said to know what they're doing. Wow, that's it.
I would think if they did that, they should have somebody in her family working side by side with this person, not just all the power.
You don't know, maybe they did.
Wendy doesn't even know.
Initially her family was kind of doing stuff with her finances, and I think that's where a lot of this.
Well, that other guy, I remember that guy in the documentary. She didn't know him, and he was like, oh, doing everything wrong.
And then again, when you watch a documentary, you're watching what they edited up for you, So it's like the truth is somewhere out there, you know. I will say for this this for sure it was. It was. I'm very glad that they interviewed her. Yeah, me too, because you know what she she's been sort of on the forgotten for sure.
Yeah, you know, hopefully at least eyes are going to be on her now.
Yeah. Absolutely, So whatever the truth is, it needs to be found out. And I just don't think at this point we've been we know everything.
Yeah.
Well, like I said, they have the new hashtag free Wendy. That's the new DJ and we just posted it.
So there you go, and thanks again to Envy and Charleamine. We appreciate it, thanks for bringing it in. Oh kay, what else you go?
All right, let's switch gear. So post Malone just posted this yesterday or last night. So he got to play the Opry a few months ago and listen to him perform, and how excited he is every time.
I'm walking down telling me and it's find out for my trust.
And you won't back down even if we got on.
A nice deat is.
I'm not gonna cuss. I'm having the freaking best time of my life that I've had. Right, You're not allowed to curse at the grand old Opry, are you?
From me?
I would say it's very very frowned upon. That should probably steer away from them.
By the way, if you're not familiar with the Grand old opry. It is a major, major thing, especially of course in the country the country arena.
Yes, all right, So we've seen meteorites hit the earth in movies, right, and it's and what and it sounds big and massive. So this is actually a meteorite hitting the hitting in front of someone's house in Texas off of the ring camera.
Thank god for ring cameras. Yes, what did we do before ring cameras? So this is a this is being right hitting the front yard. Yes, that's it.
That's it, so much less dramatic.
And I thought it almost sounded like a snowball hitting the camera.
There's no John Williams orchestra playing, damn it. I was ready for it. Okay, it sounds like glass breaking, it does. I'm sure it would hurt. Oh of course funny if you're if you heard this, Wow.
Way better.
And then finally we got music from T Pain working with a New York DJ. This is called Believe in You.
Pain Love T Pain. Of course, why one hundred single ball believing you right? Ye, thanks, you're a good America, Garrett, Thank you so much, thanks for stopping by.
This is Elvis Duran in the Morning. Show, Elvis ter Ran and the Morning Show.
Hey, you know what it goes without saying, we so so appreciate that you listen to us every day, and then you know, when we're off, we want you to keep on listening to whatever is coming out from this same content provider. We appreciate that very much, and we know one of the many reasons you listen to this station or US online and streaming is in addition to our incredible show, the music. The music is a very very important part of what draws you in in the beginning, and then you get to know us a little better and you keep listening. We appreciate it, but it is the music.
You know.
Music radio has been a part of our live since before our lives existed. Does that makes sense? There is an organization that understands this. It's called Music Cares. Music Cares. It's a I'll just read, it's a resource to eligible music professionals impacted by natural disasters, including fires that are going on in the Greater LA area right now. But you get noise, you can go all the way back to pandemic, you can go back to other natural disasters that have happened, and what music Cares does is they recognize the people who do serve in the music industry and understand that they need help as well. So Music Cares focuses on them for relief. So if you or someone you know about is dealing with the aftermath of an emergency or in the middle of one now as they are in LA, if they're in the music industry, they could be covered for a period of time. And we're talking about mental health and addictionary recovery services that could be ceased and desist, and that could desist because of these disasters, health services, human services, everything. Now you're like, well, music industries, does that mean Beyonce may need some help. No, let me read what they say and you'll get a better understanding. Because the music business, which of course, without doubt is centered in Los Angeles, that's where a lot of our music comes from. They serve anyone working in the music industry and they want to encourage them to contact Music Cares for help. This includes musicians, songwriters, engineers, producers, live crew at all these concerts, people who drive the tour buses, the managers, the agents, makeup artists, costume designers, music video creatives, technicians, anyone whose livelihood livelihood depends on music and makes music happen. If they need financial assistance, they have to possess documentation of employment history a minimum of five years employment in the music industry or three years when it comes to disaster relief or some recordings they've been a part of, or videos or concert tours they've been a part of. You know what, when it comes to let's take okay, let's take a good example of a tour and musicians and everyone involved, the Eras tour Taylor Swift.
Yeah.
Do you know how many people are employed because of that concert tour alone? Yeah? More revenue changing hands than cities.
Yeah.
And a lot of people look at music industry and they just see the top of the top. That's the forward facing group, right. There are so many layers to it and what goes in behind the scenes. Even when you're talking about a live crew and people who set up a stage, take it apart, clean up after it's there are a lot and they don't make a ton of money and they are out there just suffering.
So all approved assistant through Music Cares is paid directly to third parties or the creditors, like a landlord, a bank, utility company, hospitals, doctor's therapist.
Nice.
The money does not go to the person, that goes to the people they owe the money to. Many preventative preventive resources are free and available to all, and so music Cares they're serving music professionals in the US and Puerto Rico. And I think this is great. I think it's cool. And look, you know there is an argument to be made for what about the dentists, what about truck drivers? Yes, everyone needs help, but we're thinking, because this is a music based world, we're living in it right here, right now. You listen to this every morning. The music, these musicians and everyone who makes them great and gets the music to us. They need our help. So we're talking about them right now. If you can do a search for Music Cares, it's USI sarees dot org and whatever you can do would be great. And as we roll into Grammy season, you know they're already talking about what they're doing with the Grammys. They want the Grammys this year to definitely be La centric, to be about the artists that are being so affected in their families in Los Angeles.
And they're going to try and raise money through the.
Program and they're trying to raise money through the program.
Instead of canceling it, they're going to use it to maybe make some money and help people out exactly.
So Music Cares if you can just give it a search, see what you find out. And also while you're on musiccares dot Org, there's other relief organizations that they point out as well beyond the music business. And I think that's very important that we keep an eye on everyone, especially the ones that affect us every day through music. So music carries out or on behalf of the Alveus Stray Morning Show. We are going to make a donation as well today, So we've done deal. So I'm excited about it. I'm excited there are people out there in this industry who, gosh, without music, I don't think we would be sitting in this room right now.
Of course not.
I mean maybe we could be a news station. Yeah, very incredible news source.

These items in your pantry might contain red three die, And as you know yesterday, the FDA has said that that must come out of our foods. Now there is another red dye, red die forty. I guess that one is safe. But like things like Bros. Conversation Hearts and Danielle Brock's candy corn contained red three dye, so some other things contained red forty, So not everything red is red three die. Some bake goods, dairy and frozen goods such as strawberry flavored milk, ice cream, frozen yogurt, and popsicles all could contain red three dye. Fruit products such as Martino cherries. They could contain it as well. But like Hawaiian punch, kool Aid, Fanta, those things, they are red dye forty. So just because it's red doesn't mean it's all bad. I thought of those as health drinks. Sure, yeah, I'm sure very healthy.

It had gone away during the assaulted Caramel Frosty, which was launched in November. But now vanilla will be back and there could be a change in February. They have not confirmed nor denied the thin mint Frosty that is being rumored online. I need to need to throw it over to my cereal correspondent, mister Scotty B and the Serial Killers headquarters, Yes, headquarters.

By the way, if you're a traveler, keep in mind that this has been several years in the making. They keep saying you're gonna have to have it done by a certain date. Then they would extend it. Now they're not extending it anymore. TSA is announcing travelers will need a real id to fly starting May seven. Of course, you can use your your passport that will work, but if you don't have the passport ready to go and other travel documents which I don't even know what that would be, you do need this special the real idea with the star on it or whatever it is you do.

Are you going to put your mucinex booger videos exactly where?
Find?
You?
Know?
Uh?
Gandhi and I have our medium apps on our phones because we love reading short essays by people that have brains and insight and a philosophy to share. Today's I read was about personal growth that bad habits every man should stop immediately. I think women can stop some of these two. Number one personal bad hygiene. Oh yeah, it impacts your career, relationship, social life. No one wants to be near someone who sells, smells, or looks unclean.
No, it's bad for your actual health too. If you don't take care of your teeth and stuff.
Wash rush shave flow. See I go days without shaving. I guess I don't care another thing you have bad habit every man should stop. According to this article, not keeping your space clean m I mean a messy house a car can harm your mental well being and make others uncomfortable. I know, if I'm going through a down in life. As we go through ups and downs, I typically look around my house and it's cluttered, yes, And I don't know if the clutter causes it or me being down causes the lack of picking up from clutter only both ways, uh, neglecting your mental health? Why this is bad? It harms not only you, but also your loved ones. The stigma around seeking help can prevent addressing the issue as well. Never ever, ever, ever hesitated asking someone, Hey, help me out with something? Okay, Wasting time on your phone hmc.
Scary, set those limits.
I mean, look, you know, I don't know. When I go on my phone, I tend to fall down into these holes where I'm you know, looking at cats doing push ups and pizza making. Sometimes I think, well, how does this hurtful for me?
There are ways I think that it's still hurtful. I mean, I know it's enjoyable and that's great, but one screen time is not good for your eyes in general. So that's not great, and not moving, not getting out and living your life and doing things you know, and.
Taking me away from things I could be doing, like hanging, socializing and family time.
Cleaning up your house right.
Bad eating habits good? God, damn it, I know I'm.
A We're all this whole room right.
The no exercise routine, You gotta move, get up and move. I've been, I've been exercising more. I feel better. Good for men, this is a good one. Habits every man should stop immediately. Stop disrespecting women.
Yeah, buddy.
The arrogance, the outdated behavior harm personal and professional relationships. Treat women with respect by listening, understanding their perspective. Don't don't woman's plain. Didn't you explain to me the other day? What was that?
What was Oh?
You're you're a black girls plaining to me? I have a black girl. I know what I'm ton about. Seriously, sol girl, explain me?
Don't you do that?
Also? Lacking ambition, Yeah you got. You gotta have a drive, You gotta have a dream. If you wake up one day like I have many days, I'll admit I'm like, I don't even know what the purpose is here? What am I doing? Well, you need ambition. Ambition is a good thing, and being financially financially irresponsible is awful. I you know, I have just several friends in this boat who have just they totally don't watch what they're spending. They don't think about what they're gonna need that money for later down the road, and therefore they're out of money. Yeah, so these are these old silly habits. What else, what else are we neglecting in our lives that we should be doing more of sleeping? Yeah?
Oh my god, we were.
Just talking about that. Yeah, without doubt. What were you saying?
Oh about the sleep?
We were all saying that even if you look at charts of somebody who gets eight hours of sleep a night versus somebody who gets six, which is probably all of us on a good night, six hours of sleep, the effect that it has on your body and your brain is insane, just those two hours. When you take it down even lower, which I think a lot of us also.
Do, it's terrible.
Sleep is so important, and people look at it as this horrible thing that you're wasting time doing.
No, your body needs it. You have to have sleep. Don't be better.
Thinking about how you feel when we are on vacation, you know, for a little while, and you get to sleep in like I you start to feel like human, Like you'd be like, oh, this is how it I feel to think clearly and to you know what I'm doing a game changer.
It's kind of crazy and eating better and you're getting out and walking, which you do.
Yeah, every day.
We got to have Matthew Walker on he wrote walking, he wrote why We Sleep. And I'm listening to that book now and audible and I am horrified. All of us here in this room. We're all going to get to mention in the next ten years. We're going to get it. I've got it.
It sucks.
You do too, That's what I'm saying.
I think I do too sometimes and you're demented.
I don't even know what we're talking about. That's how much to make you I have. But no, we are seriously developing that because we are not sleep.
That's why when people complain that we take too many vacations, I say, guys, you got to realize that we have to sleep sometimes. Like it's like not.
Good micro habits. This is a different one. I've been reading a lot. Okay, never do this before you go to bed. Do you know what this is?
No?
Watch never leave a dirty kitchen?
Wat did that yesterday? I cleaned up my kitchen yesterday because I was like, I'm not gonna wake up to don't wake up to a dirty kitchen.
And when you get up, make that bed. It's the first it's the first thing you do.
Absolutely scary.
What's so funny? I was gonna say, eat Mexican food last night, Paul. That was a great train rolling into the station or out of the station.
Gandhi's revenge.
Oh okay, okay, No, I'm not ready to take a break. Sorry, I've got to mention that I had one thing.
Yeah, what you said? What else? Do we need to be focusing on what?
I think we should all be focusing on joy germs, on the things that make us happy and enjoying it a little bit more? You know, we are so quick to spread the negative news and talk about all the bad things that are happening. And they're plenty of about things happening. I get that, But right find the happy things, spread the happiness, find your own happy thing.
And enjoy it.
Speaking of that, what's that book you're reading over there?
Oh? Good?
People look at this.
It's called stories from the best of humanity, from our friends that upworthy. They always post really good, uplifting stories, and this is a compilation of the best stuff, just heartwarming, joy filled.
Amazing stuff, catching people doing something right. All right, Always clean your kitchen. Park your car one thousand yards away from the door. Oh yeah, I never park up front. I never do that trolling for a place up front. I always park in the back of the lot. I can.
I have no patience to drive around a parking lot forever. I'm like, wherever I go, I'll go all the way in the back. I don't care around the walk, no way, hate it.
Here you go. Floshing your teeth just takes a minute. Yeah, a minute or two. Just flush your teeth.
I'm like a drug dealer with my flaw sticks. Every time.
Once done eating, I'm like, hey, you want a flastick? I got a flastic want to offer them to me?
Because I do not floss enough. I ask our dentist.
Okay, I'm gonna ask him, would you like a flastick? It's in my backpack right now.
Okay, we're gonna floss hair together.
And how often are you supposed to wash your hair, because I was just talking to Abby about this. I can't remember when I washed my hair last because I've been waiting to get a trim and I'm not going till next week. And I feel like I didn't care, so I was just wearing it up and stuff and I don't I mean, is there do you have to wash it?
Right?
Okay?
When I went platinum blonde, yeah, I didn't wash my hair. I would I go three or four or five days without washing it because they don't want you to mess up.
You know, this has been at least a week.
No, but I got into the habit. Now I will go two or three days without washing it. Yeah, I don't know.
I think, what the hell are you guys do?
Then again, my hair is all falling out? So why are you just throwing stuff at each other?
He wanted to.
Are we gonna floss in this room together? It's gonna smell like?
Oh no, but we all always ask for give me a stick something, give me a disghost.
Are we gotta take a break? No, but I have dementia. We're so late, we're early for tomorrow. Hey, look at that and planning ahead. Thank you for the stick.
He didn't even.
Close the bag.
Oh my god.
Look what they're all over the You.
Can use that.
