Andrew has a new obsession that he's freaking out over. We discuss how we're dealing with the freezing cold temperatures across the country. Plus, what is Blue Monday?!

The courses of this program were pre recorded.

Please welcome. I'm Australia.

Let's hear it.

Whoad guys, No idea my voice was that annoyingly four.

I used to listen to another station that I found you guys, and I got refreshing Love you guys, Elvis Duran in the morning show.

Oh my god, they love us, They really really love us.

If only they knew the truth. Anyway, welcome back for the weekend. I don't know about you. I have one of those old tiny thermometers outside which is always accurate, right, the kind that Grandma had five degrees?

Oh, oh my god, I believe it five degrees.

I thought it was negative degrees outside.

I feel like it.

It does I always.

I always say if it's below ten, it just doesn't matter. It could be negative forty. Okay, took some trash out. Seriously, I thought I had frostbite on my fingers. Help, Nate, you're the emergency tech guy, whatever the hell you are. I mean, how long does it take for me to actually get frost bike in the friest frost bite in the fingers?

Well, go stand out there for about fifteen minutes and we'll keep track.

How about that. That wasn't my question. They turned blue at some point, I mean blue and then black if I'm not mistaken, snip a mom.

Great.

Anyway, With that said, good morning, Nate, welcome back weekend, and waddle see no Nate. And then to Gandhi, Hi, Gandhi, Danielle. Hello, and there's producer Sam. What'd you have for dinner last anything good?

Oh?

Yeah, William made a brown sugar and soy sauce salmon.

It was delicious.

That sounds very good. Salmon is so good for you. I love a good tablespoon of mercury with every meal. Yes, Scottie Bee is here? Good morn weekend Scottie. Yes, there's Froggy. Froggy. What's what's it like in Jacksonville? It's five here?

It is?

It's cold, It's not that cold. You've got a winter storm on the way. There's a chance of snow tonight in tomorrow morning.

Yes?

Really?

Now is Jacksonville? Is Jacksonville as south as it will go if it does snow? Or are we expecting some snow at Disney World?

You know, very very north Jacksonville, Fernandina and then into South Georgia. They are expecting snow tonight between about nine pm and tomorrow morning.

There you go in a crowded room, Cassie, god face, whoa, that felt pretty good. I like that a lot. And then what are your favorite songs? Gandhi?

I love that song so much?

Absolute there you go, oh yeah, oh good, Then your song with the week is done?

Okay, I had a whole list.

She liked it. She liked it, so it counts. Hey, welcome to Monday Tuesday line for Alexis from smith Town calling in. It's in good morning but anywhere ten good morning, well, good morning, So Danielle Alexis is a question, why did anyone tell her that being pregnant in the winter was harder than being pregnant in the summer?

Oh?

Is it?

To be honest, I think it's the opposite.

The winter is better.

It keeps you warm the belly, and believe me, in the summer you are sweating, but you do not want to be pregnant in the water.

Alexis. Obviously you've been pregnant in the summer as well.

Yeah.

So you're absolutely right in the sense that you're all bundled up babies, all cozy, but in the winter in the summertime, I didn't have to look for a top for my bottom. I just needed sun dress and some flip flops and I was able to call it a day. Now I have to figure out what and my jacket doesn't always.

Fish that is true, and I have to say you don't want it like you're like, well, I'm only pregnant for a limited amount of time. I'm going to buy a whole new jacket just for that. I know, I feel you. It is expensive to be pregnant, can I?

And having a baby? The pregnancy is probably the least expensive part. Wait till they're thirteen? Yes, just you wait, okay, anyway, Alexis, it's good to have you here. Congratulations on the baby on the way. Now, when are you expecting your next child.

We're expecting March thirteenth, and our baby shower is this Saturday, so we're super exciting.

I love that. Hey, where did the word shower come from? When I think of baby shower, I think of putting a baby in a shower and cleaning them. Where did shower gifts?

Yeah, showering you with gifts, showering you with love and time, happiness?

Yeah yeah, yeah, Well I don't have babies. I have schnauzers. And Allie, my schnauzer, he showered me with pooh all night shower.

Okay, Oh that happens when you have a new one. Sometimes you have to put their butt underneath the faucet just to like wash in the in the shower underneath the f All right, I wish I'm gonna have.

When when my son was four month pregnent, I was by myself. My husband was working overnight, and all of a sudden, I'm going to put my son in the shower and he just poos all over the floor.

All right, all right, all right, we gotta we gotta move on, gotta move on. But it sounds great, sounds like a wonderful thing. Hey, what do you What are you have for our friend Alexis and her shower of poo?

Speaking of blowouts, we're gonna blow out some Elvis in apparel, I'll tell you.

All right, yeah, grid in healthy. How are you with a hoodie and that little bundle of joy?

We're gonna give you the smallest T shirt possible exactly, maybe maybe a swiffer anyway, Well, thanks for listening to us, Alexis.

Congratulations on all and here we go. It's a cold day here and maybe some snow in Florida. I guess it may snow in Hell before you know it. I'm not saying, you know what I'm saying. It's just it's cold and weird places. Let's get into the three things when you need to know from Gandhi and move on with the day. Gandhi, what's going on?

All right? What's going on?

President Trump passed sign an executive order of pardoning roughly fifteen hundred people convicted in the January sixth riots in his first hours back in the Oval Office since being sworn in as president. He signed the pardon for the defendants he often called hostages.

He said.

He also signed commutations of sentences for six defendants. The names have not yet been released. Meanwhile, major deportation raids scheduled in Chicago have been put on hold after a league occurred over the weekend about the plan. Now, the raids reported to have been done today will happen another time, so as to maintain the element of surprise. A potentially historic snowstorm could stretch as far south as Florida and the Gulf of Mexico.

Froggy might be preparing for some snow over there.

Cold weather is.

Affecting millions, and the governors of Louisiana, Georgia, Alabama, and Florida, as well as Mississippi, have all declared states of emergency. The storm is expected to bring snow, ice, and freezing rain through Wednesday, making travel treacherous. Officials are urging people to stay off the roads and keep a little water running through the pipes to keep from freezing. In Texas, Houston's major airports will be closed today. The National Weather Service is warning that this should be considered a generational winter storm. And finally, in case you missed it last night, the Ohio State Buckeyes or are your national champions? Ohio State defeated Notre Dame thirty four to twenty three in the College Football Playoff National Championship at Mercedes Benz Stadium. Will Howard passed four two hundred and thirty one yards and two touchdowns to help the Buckeyes record their first national title since the twenty fourteen season. They've now claimed nine national championships in program history.

And those are your three things?

Oh I seem to have that extra bounce in your stack today.

Still, it was a good night. Last night was great, had a good week in general.

Yeah, we got to talk about your trip to Mexico. That looked pretty awesome.

It was I had so much fun.

It was five degrees here, so screw you. Yes for your Tuesday.

Yeah.

Yes.

Hey, So I don't know if you're following Baby Hot Sauce on the Gram, but Gandhi went down to Tulum in Mexico, and looks it appears through through your Instagram life that you were living a great.

Lifehi, the best weekend ever.

I have nice, Oh my god, and I feel like you took us with you. We were swimming, swimming in the lagoons, and we were hanging out with you on the beach.

I wish you guys would have been I wish we would all take a trip down there together because I think we'd have a really, really good time.

We just we had the best weekend.

It was relaxing, it was sunny, We swim in sonots, we had the best food. We stayed at the Conrad and then we visited the Hilton. I don't know if you guys knew this, but you can fly directly into Tulum now. You used to have to fly into Cancun and then drive for hours to get there. Now you can fly directly in there and boom you're right near all the resorts and the strip.

And it was the best.

Yeah. The Hilton Tuloom, Riviera Maya, it's an all inclusive resort, the Hilton family and the Conrad I mean, all of them, they're all just great, great properties. Right. Oh yeah, And like I told you, I'm so old. I remember when Tulum didn't even have a well, didn't even have a dirt road actually that's all it did have. And tou Loom and to get to Tulum from like Plio del Carmen and all that area, it was all just dirt road. I mean now it's like really nice road, but it's still a long drive. So if you can fly into Tuloom, that's awesome.

Oh.

We were so excited. We're like, yes, a fun weekend in the middle of this hell escape that is nice.

Yes, okay, very this is the perfect weekend to go.

We'll see, perfect week to go.

Yeah, we had such a good time and it's just so easy to get there now, so I.

Highly encourage everybody to go. Scary was plotting on it. He said, it sounds like a scary Jones type of place.

That just drinks great food.

We should send them a warning.

Hey.

And another thing about all inclusive. Okay, back in the day, all inclusive wasn't as fantastic as it is now.

Now.

Not only is it all inclusive, but everyone is stepped up there. All inclusive game and the Hilton Tulum Rivere Amaya is probably no exception at all.

Talk about that.

Where do I begin?

There's so much so I think my favorite dinner was at a place called Alma over there.

It was a steakhouse.

You know, steakhouse sides are the greatest. And when it's all inclusive, of course we try everything and it's the best portions too, because you're not wasting a ton of food because they're individually sized, small portions. It was fabulous. Of course we had some cocktails on the beach. Can't complain about that.

Oh God.

If you're a beach person, in the beach is right there. If you're a pool person, the pool goes right up to the beach, so it feels the same without you know, maybe a critter swimming past you or whatever it is.

It was. There's really something for everybody.

There are adults only areas there are areas for kids, whatever you want.

I'm telling you this is spot.

It is so fun.

I love it.

You talk about a steakhouse having great eight sides. What about the steak I don't know. I didn't have one thing.

The sides are banging, always the best sides.

And they brought me a flight of sauce. You know I love that.

Oh, look at you in your sauces. All right, So again, Hilton Tulum, Rivera, Maya. It is all inclusive. Just check it out, just like go online and just look it up. Can we Did you post that on your Instagram?

And I did?

Yep.

Everything is on my Instagram page. If you want to go look at it at baby Hot Sauce. If you can find me, I don't know if I'm still shadow man.

We'll see.

No.

I found you, okay, good, I found you. I was watching you all week. I was watching you like a creep.

I like it.

That's the goal.

As I'm sitting here shivering like a shaa. I hope you didn't hear the words I was using to describe how much.

I hate you.

That's what that cold breeze was.

So what that was? All right, let's get into the horoscopes producer, Sam, Who are you doing them with?

Mister jonesy across the table?

There? All right, mister Jonesy across the table. There, Here we go. Hey.

Hey, yeah, what do you have coming up, Danielle?

You could work for Kendrick Lamar at the Super Bowl and Bad Bunny sells out his shows really quickly, but make sure that the true fans get the tickets.

Hey, yesterday I was just running around. I had a lot to do. I didn't really check out the inauguration coverage. But the Carrie Underwood story I find kind of interesting. I've always thought she had a great voice and great presence. The fact that she's there in the middle of the world watching and the track went out, I mean, they couldn't play the music for her, so she did America the Beautiful a cappella talk about like being on the spot. I don't know if someone came up to me and said, okay, Elvis, your music ain't working singing, I'd.

Be like, uh no, exactly.

I don't hiss the tracks. She said, you could read your lip. She said, I'll just sing it, and she turned the mic and she just and she asked for the There was a choir in the room. She said, if you guys want to help, you can, and they did. But she nailed it there on her own.

Ally, Wait, so that choir wasn't supposed to happen.

Or was no?

Oh? I thought they were part of her original thing.

They were, Oh no, there was a backing track, and the backing track she was going to sing over that, and then they didn't. She just said I'll just sing it, and they joined in.

It sounded amazing.

It really Yeah.

I watched I watched the replay of it. I'm like, Okay, what a professional. So from now on, I think we should never leave the home or the house without a choir. You know what I'm saying, Because if this show today just falls on its ass, a choir could help. I don't know, mate, give me a choir. Dn't do something, get a choir? All right, Danielle, your report.

Come on.

Want to see what we actually look like fairy princess that resides over the pits of Hell. Follow us on Instagram at Elvis Duran Show. We talk to Elvis Duran in the Morning Show. Elvis dan in the Morning Show.

Oh my god.

All right. So if you're waking up in Miami, God love you. I was on the I was online La Stat looking at houses in apartments. Oh yeah, because it's cold. It's five degrees here, Danielle.

I know it's cold, but look, we live here and we have chosen that, so.

We have to expect this that we may choose to run like hell.

Can we relocate?

We can do whatever we want.

I guess, let's do it.

So we were coming home from uh oh, a nice surprise birthday party for Akila over at Almah on Saturday night, and it started snowing and it was coming up pretty hard, so we took our time getting home. It was actually really pretty, a pretty drive, you know, the countryside whatever, even at night. So we get to the driveway, you know how my driver goes up a hill. Well, so we're in Alex's truck, his truck, his four wheel drive truck. Mont you. We got halfway up the hill and it stopped and it just starts sliding backwards. I'm like, what are you doing? Where are we going? Are we going back? He said no, he said no, I'm not doing this. We slid into the ditch on the side of my driveway in the snow.

How did you get out?

You open the door and get out and walk up the hill because the car stayed there all night.

Well, you know what happened to me this morning. I warmed my car up twice before I got in it, and I still could not open the driver's side door no matter what I did, it was frozen shut. I had to go to the other side of the car and climb over the console to get.

In my car.

And I'm like, this is ridiculous. I'm like, this is.

Absolutely ridiculous that gearshift finds crevices that you didn't know anything, And so I had to get my pickup truck and luckily we knew how to. You're never gonna believe that I did this, because you know me, I'm just a big queen. So we actually hooked up the wire, the whatever the lines, and I towed him out of the snowy ditch with my truck. Wow, it's you, I know. I think I rammed it right up the hill.

Yeah.

And I'm thinking about maybe renting myself out on the weekend to triple a make a little extra cash.

Should buy some jumper cables. You know, people do that here on the beach. They'll go to the beach where somebody will think a car that's not four wheel drive. They get stuck on the beach and then somebody pulls up with a big old four two fifty and just yanks him right out and give him a couple of dollars.

That happened to me.

What.

I drove to the beach and I wanted to just watch the sunset, and the sand was not packed down as much.

As I thought it was, so the car got stuck in the.

Sand, and these very nice people were there right there ready to get me out of the sand.

I was like, oh, thank you so much. Nice.

What up, Nate?

Well, growing up in eerie freezing, you know, the doors freezing was a common thing, so so many times I would have to go get a kettle of water and boil it, open the door. And so, Danielle, that's my suggestion I thought about.

But let me tell you something. I didn't have time to get a kettle. If I had gotten a kettle, I would have been late for work. So there was no kettling going on.

Depending on how cold it is, sometimes when you dump that water it just turns into powder.

Well, it can't be super duper hot. It just has to be warm enough to you know, get the mechanism. Not a blow torch, not a blow wow.

So there you go, you know, So there's the weekend in the freezing temperatures. Hey, a special shout out to everyone who's outside working today. If if you are expected to be on the site and doing some construction, working out doors wherever you are, or if you're gosh, especially here in New York City, our sanitation department, we love you. Thank you for being there every day. Uh you're yeah. I think I should buy gloves. I'm in the idea. I'm somewhere, you know me, I'm I don't have I have mittens, but I didn't put on my snowboots. I felt pretty much what scary.

I am a stubborn bastard because no matter how cold it gets, I refuse to not only put on gloves but wear a scarf for a hat. I feel like a layer up all I can, but that's the best I'm gonna do because I'm too lazy for whatever reason to grab the accessories and I don't know.

Well's then you need to be out here on the farm where you have to do work outside in tow trucks. Like I never thought I would say that.

You were a cowboy.

It's a little different. It's a little different here, scary, I'm a lazy bastard. Yeah, well your and you have you have fingers falling off like icicles, just falling off your body. All right, Danielle, so much going on? Where do you want to start? So much to talk about?

You remember the other day where I talked about how movie chain Cinemark was giving you there bring your own popcorn bucket promotion. So apparently it did so so well. It was five dollars and if you brought your own thing to fill up with popcorn, it was supposed to be a certain size. So I'm not sure how a lot of this worked, but people brought pots, lunchboxes, earns, even more. One person brought an entire nightstand to fill up and apparently they love this and it went so well that they can't wait to do it again next year. And people are saying that January nineteenth is now their new favorite popcorn holiday because of this promotion that went on. If any of you you know, did this, could you call us, because I'm really curious to see what you brought to fill up with popcorn? Thank you very much. So we have a brand new president. Will will Donald Trump be the most badass president? Will not according to this list, because movie presidents are more badass than any other president that we had. This is according to a new poll, because you know, this is what happens. All they do is polls in this world. So let's see who's on this pole. Thomas J. Whitmore played by Bill Pullman in Independent State, He's on the list. Jamie Foxx in White House Down he was President, James Sawyer he's on there. My gosh, there's so many people on this list. They said the most badass, though, is President John Marshall played by Harrison Ford and Air Force one, and that was from nineteen ninety seven. I've never seen any of these movies. So I have no idea what I'm even talking about.

But you've never seen Air Force one.

I never saw Air Force one, really know?

Wow?

Should it be on my list?

Yes?

Okay, get all, there's lots of things on my list, all right, So Froggy's gonna help me with this one. Jelly Rowell made some Tennessee Volunteer fans very very upset, and here's why.

Yeah, so he showed up to the Tennessee Volunteer Vanderbilt Commodore football game, excuse me, basketball game, and he was wearing Vanderbilt clothing. Well, he has been wearing Tennessee clothing in the past, so they were mad. Well they're partially mad because Vanderbilt lost to Tennessee. But let's be honest, Vanderbilt and the University of Tennessee are both in Tennessee. Vanderbilts in Nashville. Jelly rolls from right outside of Nashville, so he's just supporting his hometown team. It's all good.

They're just mad their team marks and you can't be man at Jelly Roll for that long because he's the best, really exactly exactly all right. So Kendrick Lamar posted a help wanted for his Super Bowl halftime show in New Orleans for February ninth. He is searching for five hundred crew members a bunch of dancers. The crew will help assemble the stage move pieces during the halftime show. You have to be at least eighteen years of age and available for DAILI five hour and six hour rehearsals. Let's see. The hourly pay is twelve dollars. Applications for stage crew and halftime dancers are being accepted at the website super Bowl Productions dot Com. Again is super Bowl Productions dot Com. Bad Bunny's twenty one day residency in Puerto Rico sold out in four hours, and his team said that they made sure to eliminate two million scalpers and bots, and they wanted to make sure that only loyal fans were eligible for the pre sale. So that's pretty cool. And of course everybody wanted to go, so he had to add nine more shows because everybody wants to see Bad Bunny and concert. So what are we watching over the weekend? I went to see a Complete Unknown with Timothy Shallomey. That's the Bob Dylan movie.

Did you enjoy it?

I did enjoy it. And Timothy Shallomey is in New York this week sorry it's so cold, and he's doing SNL this weekend double duty. So I think he'll be visiting us at some point. We don't know when, but I know he's coming and I cannot wait. Here comes to me.

We need Timothy Chellamy an acchoir. I'm making a list for you here.

Lots of things.

This series orchestra would be nice to you.

Yeah, okay, either or it's fine. The series premiere of What Drives You with John Cena on Roku. You've got the streaming premiere of Blink twice on Amazon, and the streaming premiere of Gladiator two on Paramount Plus. And that is my Danielle.

Replace the Mercedes Benz Interview Lounge.

The Master of Me is her new biography. It's Kicky Palmer.

Hey, I have a question about the book. If I listen to it on like an audible, are you telling your story?

Yes?

Yes, I live take an edible at Mercedes Benz.

There's a reason they go the extra mile, from testing their vehicles in desert heat and arctic cold to creating AI that can anticipate your needs and preferences on the road. They demand every car is worthy of their star because it's Mercedes.

Benz, Elvis Teran in the Morning Show.

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 Let's go, Elvis Siran in the Morning Show.

Oh yeah, So.

Something interesting one of the many interesting things that have come out from Inauguration Day. Yesterday, the radio station that we were on in Southwest Florida in Fort Myers, they pulled the plug on it and they went country and they're calling it Trump Country ninety three seven. I think something like that, correct, Yes, Trump Country ninety three seven. So I'm thinking, well, could they just like left the same programming on and just call it like Trump Hits or Donald Trump and Elvis Dread in the Morning. I don't know.

I don't don't. I don't think they had to pull the plug on us.

We have a lot of people texting in, I mean by the hundreds, people texting in saying where are you.

They're they're definitely all in. They're Trump Country, Nudge, Trump Country ninety three seven and their tagline is making country great again.

So they're they're they're all in.

And they were hot ninety hot, Hot ninety three seven and they just you know, looked on Saturday.

Well, I guess they didn't want to make the country hot again. Now what you would think, it's not. It's not an eye heart station. So you know we don't have any anny. Well, I'll tell you what they're in iHeart stations that pulled the rug out from under us without just knowing about it. That is true, all right, Well, okay, another one bites the dust. But so this that actually in the city of the market of Naples, Florida, Naples and Fort Myers. I think that was our third frequency we've been on. We started on Wink FM, and then we went over to iHeart on one hundred point whatever seven three, and now we went over to this other station, and now they pulled the plug on us. So if you own a radio station in the Fort Myers Naples area, I bet we can cut you a pretty good deal. Well, someone somewhere can hear it. I mean we were. What we're doing is we're telling everyone who's texting, and we're trying to keep up with them. We can't because it's so many people texting through Gandhi. We're trying to tell them all you can listen to us on the iHeartRadio apps, totally free, you know. Blah blah blah. Yeah, so there you go. I mean, I get it. You know, if they if they know their audience really well, and they're like, well this may work, okay, it seems like you could get some press for them. Trump Country ninety three seven, All right, don't we own a country station there?

Frog and for Myers? I don't think we do. No, oh you know, we actually do, actually do.

Yes. Why can't we be on a station that has the country for them? I mean what we do is loves and serves all.

I happen to agree with that, and we play a couple of country hits. We spend some hits from time to time.

We talk about country artists.

Sure, I mean, I mean, okay, here are we fooling.

Like this country station? Here comes Stairs Christmas album?

I know, but as Scary said, Gaudi, were love all serve all variety.

I feel like sha is loved by everyone.

Oh well, no, but everyone.

We can love everyone, but maybe everyone doesn't love us in the same way.

Yeah, I guess that's I guess that's true. Anyway. Look, if they're radio station, they can do whatever the hell they want with it. That's all them. You know what, Hold on, Foggy, you're a country program director. What would we have to do to retool our show to be on Trump Country ninety three seven again?

You know, I gotta be honest with you. I think this show could work on any format. I really firmly do believe that. I think this could work. The problem would be when we do play the songs, like when we do a flush the format, or when we do play this but the sheer Christmas song is different. That's a novelty song. It's fine. I think the issue who whoa whoa.

Whoa novelty novelty?

What are you saying?

Time?

And when you play it in June? I mean, it's a little strange, but it makes sense than us.

I think it more sense than ever. Okay, you just lost your gay card.

Quite often in many different directions, not.

Just the game.

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. The gay hole is just one of the many holes that we plug into. All right, so do we did the Daniel or yes we did? Okay, we did that. Trying to keep up. We by the way, this announcement for those who are still listening to us. We do have phone taps this week, but they are not free money phone taps, nor are they free crap phone taps. We've given away so much crap. Apparently we've we've reached our limit on our shipping budget. What That's what I'm hearing.

And the crap that we gave away was actually crap somebody might want. Now it's just crap. That's just crap.

Makes sense?

No, okay?

All right, Well people are texting and saying they miss us in Fort Myers. All right, we miss you too. I'm so sorry that you know. Well, there you go. Another one bites the dust, as they say, another one bit the green weenie. But so, now, what do we do now that we're not on in Fort Myers? I feel kind of naked? Hey, what's the timbers are going to be in Fort Meyers today? I think that's the reason we should be on there.

I'll probably be in the sixties today.

Beautiful.

We'll take it.

I'll take it.

All right, would do we? Oh, I think we have a guest Friday. Do we not have a special guest coming in? We have?

Well, so Jojo, everybody's favorite, is going to be you know, leave get out Jojo. She's on Thursday show. Lowly Young is going to be on Friday Show. And then next week we have Teddy Swims. Teddy Swims is joining us next week.

Do not forget Timothy's Jella May right week. I don't know when, but I know he's coming.

He's in New York City.

He's getting ready for rehearsing for Saturday Night Live, where he is both the host and the musical guest, which I guess is a lot of stuff you got to reheart.

Yeah, so he's coming, don't know.

Let's talk about football. I know that Gandhi's walking on the clouds today.

Absolutely about Yeah.

Yesterday was the National championship game Ohio State versus Notre Dame. Ohio State really well.

It was a great game.

Third quarter into the fourth quarter a little sketchy, but we came out on top and it was wonderful. And the coach of Notre Dame actually attended Ohio State and he used to play there. So it was a really interesting thing to see all around, and I loved it.

Go Bucks, there you go.

Sorry, I know it's still bitter.

Balls about it, as come on, better balls over it?

You know I'm getting over it. I think I'm more disappointed in my own team than I am in her team doing well.

Does that make sense? Yes?

Okay, okay, that's fine.

And then engineer Jeff walked in here today all pouty and want want about.

It, and I said, why do you hate Ohio State so much? I don't know, I just hate him. So the kids hate them? You have no valid reason, none.

They're always good.

That's a problem.

Oh, talk to Yellow about the Yankees. Don't come for me.

Hello, I'm not part of this conversation.

Did you not to change the subject?

But here we go. Have you noticed that, you know, when you got to dinner with friends, a larger party, if one person has to get up and go pee, especially women, they all get up and go pee. And I used to think it was just a oh, well, you know, it's it's our let's just get out of here for a minute and go have a conversation in the ladies room whatever, you know. But now now I don't know if you saw this in the news today, Gandhi. They're saying it could be an evolutionary thing where when one piece we all pee. Does this make sense? It's a contagious yurin AG's that like when we all yawn, we all yawn. Yeah, I think the same. I think it's I think it's a relative.

Or somebody pukes.

You're like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, it had Okay. They found out it happens in chimps. When one chimp sees another chimp pee, it makes them need to go and researchers think it could be this evolutionary thing that promotes social bonding. I know, I've got two dogs and maybe gone, uh a froggy, you can help me out with this. When one dog pees, like in the middle of the night, Max will get up and run to the bathroom because there's a pad and there just in case. And then of course a second later, Allie has to get up and go to and then you know, dogs, they pee and then they peel on top of each other's pee another they really do, and then they then they sniff it and you know whatever, they there's conversation going on with with their urine I think I know the answer, well, the evolutionary answer, I think I do.

I think it's because when you go to the bathroom, you are vulnerable to attack. You know, you're half naked, your ass is hanging out. So when you go to the bathroom with more than one person, you may not be attacked because there's there's safety and numbers.

Yeah, you all half naked and you all have your blood set, but there's you, so yeah, you know there, Yes, more asses out means more protection possibly.

Well, and Froggy, what's tell you this.

If you go to the bathroom and you're sitting down and going to the bathroom, your dog will come into the bathroom, turn his back to you, yep, and keep his eye out into the bathroom to make sure no one's.

Coming in to get you.

But they're protecting you.

Ran didn't want to make sure you're protecting them absolutely because they are at vulnerable.

You know.

That's a very good point, Nate. So what they did They watched twenty chimps for more than six hundred hours at this zoo in Japan. This is this is the job that Gandhi wants.

How do I get it?

And they tracked how often they were peeing within sixty seconds of each other. It turned out it happened a lot in social rank made a difference. They were more likely to follow suit after a dominant chimp in the group peede. That's important, p going on. So the main theories there are two of them. The collective urine might help keep predators away because of the scent, okay, or it's a bonding thing. They compared it to how people, especially women, sometimes go to the bathroom together. I'm not trying to say it's only a woman thing, but it typically is more than man. Do you agree?

Yeah?

Yeah, I think so.

Yeah, yeah, I mean I wouldn't be sitting there with lunch at lunch and then Nate goes, well I gotta go take a leak.

Oh I'll go with you.

That doesn't happen nicly guys get up and go to the bathroom together like that, Like I'm going to the bathroom. You have me too. I'm like, oh, they're doing lines of coke and yeah, we're doing don't you think.

With women, a lot of times we don't even have to go. We just want to talk about you. So we're just like, hey, you want to come to me? The bathroom.

Yeah, okay, and you go in there.

You fix your lipstick, but you're talking in the mirror, you know, while you're whatever.

It's a bonding thing. Yeah, actually it's a it's a talk tea thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's it's a peete. Oh yeah, I got to the bathroom.

Girl.

Did you see what she's wearing out there at the table? She needs to buy a mirror at that house or she leaves looking like that. Anyway, just to thought something, something for you to talk to your friends about. At work. We pee together because we're bonding. I get it, all right, So do we have any games to play today? It's like a gamey kind of Tuesday.

We have a couple of connections left and I'm.

Sure we could pull together like a password or something, which we haven't done in a while too.

All right, can we get to together? Coming up, We're gonna do something. We're not quite sure.

They wake me up the morning show on Elvis Duran in the Morning Show.

Decided to show up today.

Right now, Elvis Duran in the Morning Show.

Okay, so we know for a fact that well Gandhi had a great weekend in the warmth Tulum Mexico at the Hilton Tulum Riviera Maya all inclusive resort. Love following everything you were doing, what was your number one favorite moment liten ote?

I went there's a place called Atique, which is an eco park, and it had one of the most beautiful to otees I have ever seen.

And we got there really early and we were all alone and it was amazing.

And then the the pools that back right up to the beaches at the Hilton are awesome also because you get to see the water and then you know, have the fun of the pool also.

So those two things if.

You're wondering, wonder said oy is It's it's a natural like like a pit.

It's like a river into a into a cave kind of thing.

Yeah, right, groundwater, limestone, bedrock collapses and it builds over several years.

So beautiful. They're so beautiful.

Oh wow. Anyway, what did you do this weekend, Danielle? How was your weekend?

It was good.

We went and saw the Timothy Shallomey movie and we went to dinner, had fun at dinner, hang Kong out with friends, slept a lot, which was very nice because of the snow. We kind of like had snow days, so it's nice. I baked, that's felling scary. I baked a lot because I kept making muffins and everybody kept eating them all so I kept eating new muffins. So it's like all weekend making muffins. But we had it was fun. I made some really good dinners last night. People were very happy with what I made. Made O God, little chicken stir fry.

Wish you were over here last night.

It was really good.

So yeah, seriously, Danielle, have you ever done any of you? Have you ever done a dinner and you put all day into it and then it's time to eat it, and you're like, this is garbage. Look, you know, I'm I'm I do. I'm very proud of some things I do in the kitchen. I do pretty well usually, but everyone sawhill a clunker is gonna fall out, and it did. Yesterday. I did pot roast and it was it was all day, you know, just it chopping and auntang and the whole thing.

You know.

I had to go get some kognac and so put a couple of tablespoons of cognac in there. I put I put a couple of cups of red wine in there.

I mean, you you.

I did all the right things, but the meat was so chewy. And is the word sinewy? Is that the word is like sinewy? Yeah?

And so I mean, and I really really really don't like.

To throw away food because I think it's just the most wasteful, awful thing in the world. I had to there was nothing I could do with it. I mean, it took every time you would cut a piece of this spot roast off and started chewing it, it would be like thirty minutes until he was tuned.

Maybe I'm exaggerating, but.

What if you left it outside for the critters in the neighborhood to come and help themselves too.

I don't really want to creators eating meat fuecause we don't wit meat eating creators running around get dogs.

They're gonna keep coming back. Then thinking oh, this is the house.

Sounds like a win win, Danielle, sounds like a win win.

Are you It's not good at all? Scary.

I had a lot of fomo in his veins this weekend. What we were all fomoing about, well, because I was.

Home for three days and I did not leave my apartment, and all I did was watch TV and rot and watching you guys, Elvis out at a surprise party on Saturday night, gone in to loom, like even Danielle. Danielle has a lot going on with her family. It just to be sitting there and not even my teeth or get dressed for the day. What that's that's really telling of you? You really do more than a day without brushing your teeth on Saturday? It was just that day or was it Sunday the day that we got.

All that awful?

You know, you just teeth.

I just couldn't leave my bed. I was sitting there, we were watching TV.

I know.

You didn't brush your teeth.

Your girlfriend, Oh god, it's scary.

It happens, but it happens from time to time where you just don't you just want to want to tell you what.

I will tell you what's going on with him? He's on this big diet where you can't eat, can't drink, and I think it's it sends you into a little bit of a sad slump. I really, I really do think it does.

I always get depressed the time of year because of that.

Because for me, my the way I expressed myself is by eating and drinking, and that's that's my fun.

Exactly how expresses himself. That's that's his that's his art form. Like some people are dancers, some people eat and drink anyway. So there you go. You're in the slump. It's okay, it's okay.

In case of the January's yeah you do.

Yeah. By the way, my pot roast is always excellent. I really think I I think I was the victim of bad meat.

Yeah. It's a lot of times.

It's the meat, right, Seriously, you get it when it's too fatty, and then you go to cut into it and it's just all that gooey sludge ball.

I mean, look, pot roast needs it needs some fatty in there, that's yeah. But no, but this was not even fatty. It was like chewing on rope rope like like moving I'm moving on, moving on. I'm gonna I'm gonna make up for it today. Don't you worry, Oh, don't you worry. I'm gonna do. I'm gonna do with some mancheladas today. I'm gonna do. I got some roasted green chilies from from Hatch, New Mexico in the freezer. I'm gonna get those out, make me a maybe green chili and I'm gonna make some green chili enchiladas chicken. Yeah, I'm gonna get back back on the horse and right right ride. Anyway, enough of that, let's get into the three things we need to know from Gandhi. I hope you had a great weekend. Hope you ate a lot of good stuff. I hope you didn't sit there and rot with your girlfriend and not brush your teeth like scary you did.

That was just Sunday, just Sunday.

Can our follow up question about.

That the Lord's Day?

Yes? Go ahead.

Isn't Sunday your designated sex day?

Yeah?

And you didn't brush your teeth.

We didn't know.

We were just rot The problem is when the weather sucks and it's all watching.

TV, you just zone out.

Wait she did, of course, Oh, because you made it sound like she was rotting as well. All right, okay, okay, let's.

Move on, all right.

A red flag fire weather warning is in effect for parts of Los Angeles and Ventura Counties from noon today until ten am tomorrow. Griffith Park and other Los Angeles publics faces are temporarily closed due to increased wildfire risk. Firefighters however, were able to boost containment of the deadly Eaten Fire and Palisades fires during a weekend of improved weather conditions, but curfews remain in effect for evacuation zones, and authorities continue to make arrests for violations, including two people with a firetruck who were impersonating firefighters in Pacific Chalis.

These people, seriously, you know what, California is so full of weirdos. I mean, don't have a fire out there. Yeah, don't do anything out there. People are just crazy.

You just need to know how they got a firetruck? What I hands on that.

They need some sanity like we have in New York City.

Yeah, absolutely, look at us.

Back to you, all right.

Costco could face a strike if it doesn't reach agreement on a contract with its eighteen thousand union members. About eighty five percent of the union members have approved that strike. The Teamsters union says companies profits are up one hundred and thirty five percent since twenty eighteen, and union members.

Deserve a piece of that.

Costco recently report two hundred and fifty four billion dollars in annual revenue and nearly seven and a half billion dollars in net profits. The deadline for that deal is January thirty first.

And finally, I.

Don't think this is going to shock anybody, but a poll from the Pew Research Center found that the number of teens using chat GPT for homework is rising. The survey reported twenty six percent of students between the ages of thirteen and seventeen are turning to chat GPT for help with homework. That is twice as much as the amount from twenty twenty three, So in just a year it has doubled. Students comfort with using chat GPT varied for different assignments, with fifty four percent using it to reach research new topics and eighteen percent saying they use it to write essays. And I know a ton of adults who use it for all kinds of stuff. Oh yeah, job interviews.

It's endless. So yeah, it's on the rise. And those are your three things.

It is on the rise. But chat GPT has been long enough around, long enough, long enough. Further, I can see when people use it because I know them really, you know, and you know when they use I'm like, this is it's okay?

How does that work with teachers?

When you know your student and how they operate in class, and then all of a sudden they turn in an essay that is just written by a genius.

Do you call it out immedia? I think they did here is that you get in trouble for being like this seems too smart.

I actually asked my kids about this because I was like, what, you know, can you do that? And he's like, no, you get busted for it. They get busted for it all the time.

It's that's the thing.

I do believe.

They're already working on it, and some are available now. You can actually run text through a filter. It will say this this is chat GBT because it's you can get g chat GPT that can recognize they're chat GPT, see how they working, which is just so frightening. The whole thing's fight. Good morning.

Hey.

You know what, we have been huge, huge fans of Tunnel to Towers here in New York City for so long. The Tunnel to Towers Foundation, of course born out of the necessities that came from nine to eleven here in New York City, but they do so much. Listen to this. US Army specialist Brett Menard is now in a mortgage free smart home in Florida. Thanks to Tunnels to Towers, he decided to enlist in the US Army Brett after being motivated by nine to eleven his desire to be a part of something that truly matters absolutely. But in combat on a road clearance mission in Afghanistan, Brett's vehicle was blown up by this improvised explosive device, and in that instant, his life changed forever. The blast left Brett with all sorts of awful problems, including turning him into a T four paraplegic with traumatic brain injury, compartment syndrome in both arms, unable to use his legs, and severe internal injuries. He even needed a total face reconstruction because his bones and teeth were all shattered. While you're serving our country fight these overwhelming challenges, Brett's spirit unbroken. Because of the support of friends like you and Tunnel to Towers. They built him. Listen to this. They built him a specially adapted smart home that allows catastrophically injured heroes like Brett to live more independently. That's one of the many things they do at tuntal To Towers. We love them. America's heroes need our help now more than ever. Donate eleven dollars in a month. That's it, eleven dollars a month at T two t dot org. That's the letter T, the number two in T dot org.

We love.

First of all, we got to get the Daniel report going because she is slacking a little bit today. When's last time you did a day report.

I don't know, an hour ago.

Maybe then we have a round the room we got I gotta see what's on your mind today. And also Gandhi is a new connections today. You know, why don't we turn turned Daniel off for a second. Sorry, let's just let's just give it a little preview. So these three pieces of sound have something in common. Take it away going our pieces. Yeah, so there's four business of audio. Something connects them.

It could be the artist, it could be the content of the song, it could be a lot of different things. But there's one thing specifically that I'm looking for with the answer. So you have to find what that connection is.

Right, let's see. Okay, listen closely. What do they have in common?

The oah, Hello, it's me.

Hmm, no clue, not for me anyway, And does anyone have a clue?

No?

No, all right, Tab We're gonna play for you again in a second. Just hang in there. They have something in common. You know, the more these connections you do, the more creative you gotta get. So yes, I'm starting to think like more out of the box creative Gandhi when it comes to these things. So we'll see what happens.

Sometimes you don't need to overthink it. Sometimes it's like.

Oh really yeah, yeah, I'm gonna say that with this one you might need.

Okay, no, no, no, just give us a hit. Do we need to overthink it or just not?

I don't think you overthink this one too much.

Okay, play it again, Play it again.

Hello, it's me. It's about damn Time.

Hmmm, all right, all right, well never mind. I thought I was onto something. But now we'll play it for you again in a minute. And of course there's glamorous prizes to win if you figure it out. Let's get into Daniel's report. Now, Danielle, what's going on?

Well?

Taparone sat down with BBC's Radio one and she talked about her rise to fame, and she said that she thinks she would be even bigger if she wore a muzzle. She said, it's not her style, you know, to kind of keep her mouth shut. She sayes what she feels, she said, But if if I were to override more of my basic instincts where my heart is going, you know, we might be even more famous than.

We are now.

So there you go. The Black Eyed Peas have canceled their Las Vegas residency. They were supposed to start on February fifteenth at Planet Hollywood, and they're saying that, you know, they have these current circumstances. They didn't go into detail, and they're just saying that they cannot move forward as planned, and they will get refunds. If you bought tickets, you will automatically be refunded, and they say stay tuned for updates on future performances. So we'll see what happens. I'll keep you posted on that one. So there's a rumor going around that Nile, Louise Zaye and Harry will pay tribute to Liam Payne at this year's brit Awards. Now there's also another rumor saying that Harry is a holdout as of right now and that he's not planning on doing that and not planning on performing or joining them. So I don't know, we'll see what happens. The brit Awards are happening in early March, so obviously we'll see what happens with that. The fire aid Benefit cons added another dozen acts and the biggest name Olivia Rodrico. They just added that, I told you everybody wants to be part of this fire. Eight tickets go on sale Wednesday at noon Pacific time through Ticketmaster. The show is at two Los Angeles arenas. That's how incredible it's gonna be, and promoters plan to announce today what artists will perform at which arena, just in case you want to get tickets for specific venue. So it's gonna be amazing, and I know our iHeart stations are gonna be carrying it, so it's gonna be something special and hopefully raise a lot of money for Los Angeles. So, you know, Gandhi and I are five to two. I always say I'm five to two on a good day. Got a bad day, I'm like maybe five to one.

I'm five to one.

Yeah, So I'll just hold it right there. Who is short? When it comes to celebrities, you may look at them and say, wow, they look tall, but they could be wearing really high heels. Sabrina Carpenter is five foot nothing.

That's it.

She looks a lot taller to me.

Dolly Pardon is five foot nothing. How about that? Shada Pinkett Smith is four foot eleven, Kristin Chenowi is four foot eleven, Danny DeVito is four foot ten. I can go on and on, because yeah, even Courtney Kardashian, who I thought was really tall, is only five feet.

Yeah.

Celebrities are the tiniest people you've ever seen. Kim Kardashian, I think it's like five two.

It's crazy. It's crazy. So yeah, they may just look taller because of their footwear or whatever.

You know.

Lady Gaga now has a count down on her website. It is counting down to her new album. So that is on the way. And what are we watching?

Well?

I went to see a Complete Unknown that is the Timothy Shallomey Bob Dylan movie over the weekend.

We loved it.

And I know Timothy shallome in town doing SNL this weekend. So cannot wait to see what day he decides to come in and see us. Whatever day it is, we will be ready here he comes. Also, you got a serious career of what drives You with John Cena on Roku Blink twice on Amazon and Gladiator two on Paramount Plus. And that is my Danielle report.

Excellent job, daniel you did it. Let's go around the room. We're in a room. Let's go around it. That's what we do. I'm gonna start with you. Froggy in ball Me sixty degrees, Jacksonville, No.

I wish are you kidding me?

Right now? It's forty We've got a winter store morning, the first one we've had in seven years. They say we could get snow tonight. It's supposed to start around five o'clock in northern jack South Georgia could see some snow. This is how you know. I'm so not used to this. I'm already trying to plan what I'm gonna get for dinner and go to the store before I go home so I can just go to my house, close the door and not have to leave it in tonight because I love it.

This store is gonna be crazy because everyone's gonna think it's the.

End of the world.

Right, and then tomorrow morning at the drive they're talking about that could be black ice on the road and all this other stuff. I'm like, okay, no, I'm not cut out for this really, And where this is. This is Florida. Last time I checked, We're not supposed to have these conditions. So about bridges will freeze because air gets under it and makes the road colder. There could be ice on the bridge, and like, what am I gonna do?

But buddy, we go into survival mode, like, oh my god, God, get to the store right now. Yeah, me and everybody else. Yeah, great idea. Well, stay stay warm. I think you said I'm down to three degrees out in New Jersey. Yes, I just checked where you are. It's three degrees.

It's going to be four at eight o'clock and you could be eight by nine, so you're double God, I'm I'm.

Counting the moment till nine o'clock. Hey, Gandhi, what's up with you today?

Do any of you guys do something every single time you go on vacation, like a tradition, because mine is to leave.

Blood wherever it is. I'm travel.

It's nice.

Myself on every vacation pretty early on and I just say, this is, this is what I'm leaving for the gods of this land.

I'm leaving you a little bit of my blood.

And it happens.

I was playing in anote and I let me tell you, rocks under the surface are treacherous. And I was swimming and I just scraped my knee across one of these rocks. I thought, Okay, not a big deal.

I get out of the water.

There's this blood dripping down my leg and now I have this nice little slice across the top of my knee. And when you have something on your knee, it doesn't heal because you're constantly bending it. So every time I bend my knee, I'm like, God, there, she isn't good. Oh, it happens every time. I don't think I've been on one vacation where I haven't bloodlin.

Yeah, it's usually you're stung by wildlife, yes, bitten by something, yeah, bitten by something.

Yeah.

All right, well now the blood of Gandhi is dripping through the streets to noon.

I left it for the God.

Hey, what's up with you today, Danielle.

So we always meet listeners in interesting places. So over the weekend, I was in church on Sunday and I went to receive and as I'm coming back from receiving, a listener said, hey, I love you on the show I listen every day, I'm like, oh, thank you so much. But it's so weird because that's the one place I don't know how to react because I'm in church and I'm like, well, I'd like to stop and talk to you, but I really can't talk to you, so I have to go back, you know, Like it was the weirdest thing. So I really apologize if I couldn't like hang around and say hi and chat more. But it was church, so thank you for saying hello. And it was just so it was so crazy. I just just know what to do.

I was like, what do I do now?

Will God be mad? I didn't know what, but thank you for saying hello and for being a fan.

God told me he's very upset, very upset. Hey, scary, what's up with you today? What will they think of next?

Did you guys see that the Progresso Food company came out with these soup drops.

It's hard candy soup that you could suck on and in a can. They're like hard can. You put them in your mouth and you suck on it and taste like soup. So it's like you're eating soup all morning.

These things. I think there, aren't they like cough drops?

Right?

Aren't they that's what they're supposed to be.

Yeah, and they taste like chicken soup.

So it's not for nourishment. It's just it's just it's I thought it was a replacement for soup.

I think they get into that shacken soup makes you feel better when you're not feeling well.

So they came up with a cough drop. I guess don't binge them then, but I want to taste them. I gotta get my hands on them. They're they're in a can somewhere.

I don't know.

Soon, joy soup suckers. I have to enjoy this.

Soup drops crazy. I know that it was a drop.

Yeah, that's what that is.

Well, I enjoy. I don't know if you.

No, Oh, so, producer, sand what's up with you?

It is so nice picking up on little micro gestures of love. And I love observing this. I've never said it to him, but scary it is so sweet. Every morning when he comes pick me up, which is already incredible, I see you turn on the heated seats button before I get in the car, which is just so sweet. Of course I could get in and do it myself, but I think it's so nice It's a small moment. I feel thought I've been taken care of. So thank you for warming my touch.

I do preheat your seat, you do it so much. Get in the car. It's adorable. Love bit.

Tomorrow he'll have a little platter of soup drops. Yeah, full service. All right, straight, Nate, what's up with you today?

Okay?

So self reflection this week, and I realized something about somebody here on this staff. So I just realized I hadn't shaved, like dragged a razor across my face.

In over ten years. It was a conscious decision.

Then I realized, you know, at some point in your life, you make this choice as a guy, do you have facial hair or not? And I realized somebody made that choice and went back on it. Elvis people might not know this, didn't You used to wear a mustache. I absolutely did back in the day.

Yeah, so why did you choose to have it?

And then what caused you to get rid of it? Well, it was a fad I was going through, you know, And you know I was like the early day Benson Boone to be honest, hut, you know, yeah, yeah, that was back in that was back in the nineteen eighties and it definitely was not a good time to have a mustache back then. That's why I did it. I rocked a mustache because no one else did. That was a smooth shaved era. Okay, unless you remember the Village people. I saw a picture at one point. I'm like, Wow, Elvis used to rock a stache.

Crazy, I did? I did?

Yeah, why why do we have to talk about this? Because it's weird for somebody to have one and not carry it through their life. My uncle has had I've never seen the guy shaven clean. So I just thought that was funny that you made the choice and then went back on it, and it weird that it was an era of rebellion. By wearing a mustache, that will show them. Ye yeah, I will show them who's bosh. I'm gonna wear a stash, So there you go. Well, thanks for bringing that up.

You know, I tried to do it during November and it just looked. It didn't look good. It is, It's not right. I mean, Danielle's really the only one that naturally carries a mustache.

Well, because I've been doing it for so long. Don't be jealousy jealous.

She used to get mad when I said that. Now she's just kind of I'm like whatever. All right, So a lot of people are reaching out trying to figure out your connections, Gandhi. Yes, no, I don't know. We have people on the phone. Let's go see if they have them. Correct, Brittany Line seven in Ohio? Where Ohio are you, Brittany?

All right here, it's Carrie. Let's go the three things we don't Oh, that's itt dit cleaning. All right, Okay, let's go gandhi. What's going on?

All right?

Hours after his inauguration Monday, President Trump signed several executive orders, including one that grants pardons to roughly fifteen hundred people who were convicted in the January sixth riots. He also signed an executive order that designates drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations. Earlier Monday, he signed an order that rescinds almost eighty of former President Biden's executive actions neat executive actions. Meanwhile, major deportation raids scheduled in Chicago have been put on hold after a leak occurred over the weekend about that plan. Now those raids reported to have been planned for today will happen at another time, so they may the element of surprise. A potentially a historic snowstorm could stretch as far south as Florida and the Gulf of Mexico.

Cold weather is going to hit millions.

The governors of Louisiana, Georgia, Alabama, Florida, and Mississippi have all declared states of emergency. The storm is expected to bring snow, ice, and freezing rain through Wednesday, making travel treacherous. Officials are urging people to stay off the roads and keep a little water running through pipes to keep them from freezing. In Texas, Houston's major airports will be closed today, the National Weather Services warning this should be considered a generational winter storm.

It's crazy.

And finally, the Ohio State Bluckeyes are national champions. The Ohio State University defeated Notre Dame thirty four to twenty three in the College Football Playoff National Championship at Mercedes Benz Stadium. They have now claimed nine national championships in program history. Oh h, and those are your sweeping.

The Mercedes Benz Interview Lounge.

Good morning, by the way, thanks for being on with us at Mercedes Benz. There's a reason that go the extra mile from testing their vehicles in desert heat and arctic cold to create a AI that can anticipate your needs and preferences on the road. They demand every car is worthy of their star because it's Mercedes Benz.

Elvis Dan in the Morning Show.

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.

Oh waiting.

Elvis Dran in the Morning Show.

Hey, we're about to get into some sound with Garrett Done. Hey, we didn't really we didn't really talk about TikTok and what it was like to be without TikTok for twelve hours. It was about twelve hours right the meltdown. It was a it was a meltdown. I mean, but you know, and GODDI and I were talking about this TikTok influencers We're unraveling right before your eyes. They're like they were convinced and rightfully so, that it was going to go away forever. And it got crazy, like what did you notice that was so crazy about these influencers that lost their TikTok gig.

Oh, well, my favorite thing was all of the influencers, which I will put into quotation marks who started coming clean about all the things that they've lied about because they thought TikTok.

Was going away and it actually wasn't going away.

So you had people talking about, Yeah, I always push these beauty products. I don't use any of them. I am a body positivity goddess. As a matter of fact, I've been using ozembic. These Coffee Talk videos I do all the time. I don't drink the coffee ever. These workouts I'm showing you, I only do the part you see in the video, and then I don't do the workout for the rest of them.

Why did they do this?

Why do they give all their secrets away all of a sudden.

Well, I can only assume because they're idiots. Because I knew TikTok was coming back. It wasn't actually going to go away for a long time. But I'm sure they thought, I'm gonna get this one last pop, this is gonna be amazing, I'm gonna go viral, not thinking this might actually ruin me completely. Because now some of them are trying to backpedal. Well, I gave my mom the coffee from the Coffee Talk. I just didn't drink the coffee. Oh yeah, It's so funny to me. Influencers don't trust them. Don't trust influencers that don't have a day job. I say it all the time.

Okay, I agree, I agree, And I was saying earlier. You know, we went to this party Saturday night and there were several people at the bar with their phones out, like hitting the phone with their fingers. There's gotta be a problem here. And you look over and it had that, you know, that same thing we saw on all everyone who went to TikTok it had that same announcement in the same white box and everything. They all had it and they were beating it with their fingers like bean bee mean me me hello? Anywa at hope they're waiting for like the door to open, go yes, may I help you? And but the look of disappointment on these people's faces was it was serious.

I just think we're all suckers.

Is that what I think?

So, of course that is one of the theories that it was. It was just unplugged to cause it ruckus.

Yep.

If you create a problem and then solve it, amazing. We need to start doing that more often.

You're right, we do.

Yes, scary, How were you affected during the TikTok blackout.

Well, I just feel bad for the six million American businesses that depend on it. You laugh, But there are people that's their entire income.

So that's this is a serious thing.

And if it goes away, and guess what we have seventy five days, maybe seventy four now because the executive order was signed yesterday to just delay the band.

Do you really think it's gonna go anywhere else?

Okay, So Congress already voted on it, whatever the act was, it was put to bed, Supreme Court waiting on it.

It could go away in seventy five days.

Now, seventy five days, we're gonna do all this again, and then it's gonna come back.

I know you guys think it was a stunt, but no, it's well according to into a effect, a law that went into effect.

I mean, it's kind of black and white.

Okay, Well, you're right, it is pretty much there, but for how long? And we don't know. Okay, look a lot of and looked in the world of in the world of communication, whatever you want to call it. Media TikTok is relatively brand new. I mean, it's amazing, it's it's it just came on to the scene. But can you imagine, Let's say, what we do for a living. We sit here in this studio with all these microphones and we have a transmitter on a building, but we have digital digital tentacles or reaching around the globe. And what if they came to us and said, no illegal, bad influence, got to pull the plug? Well, how would you how would you feel? I mean there are people in that TikTok industry that would they that's their industry, just like this is our.

Correct I'd be like, true, pull that plug.

We are.

We have we have fooled you for over one hundred years.

I work here and I can tell you you.

Know what I thought would have been good on Trump's part. I said, you know what, he should not let it come back. And then at the inauguration stand up there and the first thing he did was say, ladies and gentlemen, let's bring back TikTok, and then TikTok.

Goes back on.

People would have loved him.

Yeah, I.

Was like, that would have been real smart. Why did they think of that?

Why not?

Right?

Okay, but look at okay Danielle arguably, Yeah, mister beast is a good example. Now, you love mister Beasts. You're a huge fan of many many, many people adore mister Beast and they love what he has done.

To a contribute.

Okay, what a lot of people are saying the same thing. But what about the good that comes from the TikTok world? I mean, what about the people who are actually using TikTok to help and advance people.

I think that's it's awesome. I also think people always come up with an alternative. So if it were to go away, one, I hope people have saved the things that they've done. But two, someone's going to come up with an alternative and it will be okay, oh, if you just pause for a second, it will be.

Then you got to start all over and you got to build your following up again. Well, sure, start from scratch.

I mean, keep in mind, the foundation of the problem with TikTok is China. Apparently, they're they're infiltrating our minds and they're they're viewing everything and witnessing things that that then they're putting facts together to come up with some dossier on us. I don't know. But then you have our friend Deanna's Deanna and Deanna, Deana Banana, Deanna everything that is video and social with us, and you see us moving and talking and acting like a bunch of fools and doing some good stuff too. I guess Deanna, she she does all that. She she's a creator. So you Deanna, and your role with our show has been very TikTok heavy, correct. Yeah.

So like when I first started iHeart Radio, TikTok didn't exist, so like we made the show's account when it launched. So then like after it went away over the weekend, I was like, wow, I just spent six years building up this account for it just to be deleted.

And like I have and I've had videos.

Go viral on iHeartRadio, like the national TikTok account thirty five million views, Like that's like my life's work.

Like I was like, oh my god, I can't show this ever again if it's gone. It's crazy. That's the thing.

You know what.

So Indiana's case, that's her seven years work here on our show.

Her portfolio right, save her portfolio.

You know, it lives on TikTok and it was promoted on TikTok, and because of TikTok, it was successful and all of a sudden Okay, I love that sound. I mean, hold on, Oh god, my body so full of intriguing sounds. So anyway, there's a chance we're gonna get it back, at least for seventy five days until they figure it out.

You know.

It was like the wildfires of the digital space. But it all came back. Yeah, it was like, no, everything I ever did is gone, and then it returned. Are you feeling okay?

Now I'm feeling okay.

Yeah.

I was being a little dramatic on whatever day that was.

I have to know, not you not Danna right, no stop, I mean this is this is this is a house of drama.

It's not just you. We're all a bunch of drama queens.

But you know, there you go, you know. So it's not as simple as oh, well, TikTok's gone. Now I can't watch, you know, videos about meat Loaf, but you know, not the singer, but the dish. But there are some people whose lives depend on it, you know, and so just something to think about. But there's always a place for you to go. If ta if not TikTok, Dana, if TikTok was unplugged, and we did find a way to save your seven years of work. Somehow it's there somewhere. We would find another way to get it out there. We'd be okay. I think we'd be all right.

Yeah, that's true.

We do cross posts everywhere, like on YouTube, Instagram everywhere, but still like certain things go viral and TikTok that don't go viral on Instagram. So it's just like those numbers I would be sad to lose.

There you go us into sound and we love it. Deianna with or with that TikTok, you're very very much needed here sound Garrett, Garrett, what's going on today?

Yes, yes, all right, So you were talking about this earlier in the show Carrie Underwood. Yesterday at the inauguration singing America the beautiful her sound went out.

She had to do it acapella and this is what it sounded like.

Ohif for space sious guys for a boo wave and there you go. She didn't lose a second. No, it sounded awesome.

So on the other side of it, Billy Ray Cyrus performed over the weekend and he had some technical difficulties as well. It didn't go as well for you as for as well for Billy ray Cyrus as it did for Kerry Underwood.

He was singing a little Old Town Road and it sounded like this, I'm gonna take my halls to the old town road.

I'm gone.

I can't no, mo y'all could put your hands together now like that, if you encourage about keep going.

They told me to kill as much time as possible.

So does Eby know the words? He can break your heart?

Oh my god? Hey, you know what.

Okay, look, make fun if you want. But if you imagine being in front of a crowd all of a sudden they pull the plug on your music and it's just you without the backup, Yeah, you know what. I never want to be in that position ever ever.

All Right.

So I don't know if you're the person in your house that does the laundry, but that is me and my house. And on the tags of some shirts, you know, there's some logos and I don't know what those logos mean when you're washing your shirts.

You know, uh, just hot water, cold waters.

The graphic of an iron with an X, so it don't iron.

Yeah, And if you don't know what that means, and you have an iPhone, you can take a photo and listen to what you could do.

Act.

Every iPhone with iOS seventeen or later has a decoder built in for those symbols, So all you have to do is find.

A tag and just take a picture of that tag.

Then visit the photo of the tag on your iPhone and if you wait a few seconds, that eye button in the middle turns into a laundry machine because it has recognized the laundry tag symbols in the picture. So click laundry Care. It's decoded and told you all the things you need to know about that exact garment. It even works on symbols that aren't even on a tag.

Well, yeah, I'm gonna try that later, Danielle, you gotta be on iOS seventeen. You're gonna have to update, all right.

So if you're a parent or watch Disney Plus, you know the show Bluie right yeah?

Hm, the theme song theybody dances. So there's your favorite song the favorite favorite show.

Yeah, all right.

So there's a guy on Instagram called Sammy slam Dance where he takes these cartoon shows and turns them into metal songs.

Mm hmm. That's also bad, and it has gained over five.

Million views he's alone, just over over the last week and a half. So blue is big, yes, big blue, and that is it. You're good about it.

We just did Danielle, so it'd be kind of weird to do her again, all right, So Danielle, you just sit back. You haven't forbid you to do too much work here. I'm thinking about what this day is going to bring since it's hold on. What's what temperature now? Froggy five? Where we up to eight by nine o'clock? Okay, up to eight degrees today?

WHOA?

What's the day going to bring? Don't we'll bundle up figure it out. I'm still pretty amazed that I butched up and I used my ram truck to pull another truck out of a snowy ditch yesterday.

It really is.

I mean, I've never done anything like that in my life, and I hope never to do it ever again. But I was impressed. I rarely do things like that in life. That kind of pushed my boundaries. But towing another car another truck out of a snowy ditch, didn't.

You feel like a really big accomplishment after? Like, holy crap, absolutely yeah, absolutely absolutely put it in foot did you put your your RAM truck in four wheel drive?

Push up a little absolutely.

Four w D.

Question, cursing out the person who got the car stuck in the ditch in the first place.

No, because I was in the car.

I was in the truck as a passenger when it started sliding down the icy hill and into the ditch. Luckily there was no damage and no tree was hit. But uh, you know, no, no, no, I'm cursing the ice on the on the highway.

Next time you're driving down the road and you see somebody stuck, would you be more apt to pull over in your truck now and help them out, because you know, you know what you're doing.

No?

No, well no, I mean this truck was, you know, in the middle of my driveway. I need to get out.

So there's that.

Anyway, I felt very accomplished. Have you ever told anyone with your tundra straightening?

I do have a toe strap though? And chains? Do you got chains for your tires there, Elvis?

No, don't need them. And from my Ram, I feel like if.

Your Tondra passed me by and I was stuck and you were sorry, I might go.

I might go.

I'm all right, thanks.

Okay, the ditch there.

I was like, I'm gonna wait for the next silver.

Ditch.

That's sorry, your truck is too small.

I've got an update. Okay.

So we were on a radio station in Fort Myers and doing a morning show. They pulled the plug on the format of the station and our show without telling us they were gonna do it. Okay, whatever, and they renamed it Trump Country ninety three seven something like that. It's owned by a company called Sun Broadcasting. So this textas says, I just called Sun Broadcasting and they said they changed the station and took your show off because no one was listening to it. Okay, well, then there you go. I don't I know, but you know what, Son, what they're doing, this Trump Country thing they're doing. It's a very gimmicky thing. I see how they're going to get some you know, they're gonna get some some play out of it. Someone's going to talk about it for a minute, you know, and if the music is good, people will listen to it.

You know.

I don't know any about it, but no one listened to us, which is kind of weird because we've had an avalanche of text all morning. Where are you I'm.

Surprised somebody answered the phone over there.

Hello, I know a country like I mean, a company like Sun Country can't be whatever. So Sun Broadcasting, whatever the hell they are, I'm sure it's all. It's just I will tell you that radio station is a computer in a closet.

That's what it is.

So thank you. So Sun Broadcasting is a computer in a closet. Well, we have a few of those ourselves, I'm sure. Anyway, So no one's listening to us, Well now they aren't because we're.

Not there, definitely aren't.

We need to find a fourth frequency in Fort Myers.

It is.

First we were on Wink, then we were all one hundred point three, and we were on the ninety three seven. We're looking for our fourth.

We're not going away, We're all we're going to find another place.

We're going to make a home.

Well, good for Sun Broadcasting. It's it's not easy being a radio company, be it large or small. So if you are listening to us online somewhere, or if you if you have a friend in Fort Myers that it is upset we're gone. They can listen to us on the iHeartRadio app. It's very easy. It's totally free to download, So do it today.

I'm gonna play hooky.

Goodbye.

Elvis Duran in the Morning Show. Listen all this is Elvis Duran in the Morning Show.

So you know they have dry January, like I said, they they have tried January you give up drinking for the month or whatever, and there's moist January where you just give up a lot of drinking for the month. Now there's Blue Monday, the Blue Monday Challenge. Have you heard this? No, there's this positivity campaign out there called Blue Monday. I don't know if you've heard about it. They're saying, yesterday was blue Monday, and most Mondays are blue for many people. Many people are like, oh, the weekend was so great, and now into the week so they're saying blue Monday. And they launched this in the Netherlands. You're not allowed to complain for thirty days.

Oh that's I thought it was just a Monday, and I thought.

It was double. Yeah, this is a challenge, especially since there's a good chance we've already failed. But anyway, not too late to start. They're saying blue Monday. The idea is, if you can see how often you're complaining that maybe you'll be more conscious about your complaining moments and you'll stop doing it so much. So look at let's define complaining, shall we bitching and moaning and upset about something and having to like release that steam and let someone know how mad you are that there's something going on. I don't know, complaining. It could be about the weather. We'll let's be honest. Let's use the weather as an example.

What can you do?

Complaining about the weather does?

What?

Nothing?

Oh it's too hot, it it's too cold. Well, you you're most likely choosing to be there, so right, Okay, complaining?

I think that's exactly it, though, because if there's something that can be done about it, it's not a complaint. It's more a suggestion of this needs to be different, let's change this. But if there's nothing to be done, then you're just whining.

So maybe, okay, let me piggyback that. Let's say we don't like how we don't like having meetings on Fridays? Okay, Yeah, Rather going god, I just hate Friday meetings, you would say something like, you know, what do we think about doing meetings on Wednesdays?

Yeah?

Because Friday is kind of a let's get the hell out day. You know that's saying the same thing but actually pushing for change in a positive way and not His idea was that have a meeting on Friday, e f them.

Although somebody might say, oh that Elvis, he's complaining and wants to have his meeting. It's on Wednesday, so you know that's another complaint.

Yeah, and then eventually that Wednesday meeting can just turn into an email. That would be great.

Well, okay, full transparency. We don't have meetings ever, so maybe they do it.

We do, Yeah, I don't think you show up to them.

But wait, there's a meeting.

Meetings all that I'm talking about a morning show?

Oh yeah, yeah, no, we don't do that.

Okay, and you're welcome. Yes, scary.

What I read somewhere that you're supposed to be proactive and offer the solution in the email if you're gonna complain about something, so kind of like present, like, here's the problem and solution together and now you've done something. Well, so instead of crushing the dark, light a candle.

So not complaining. But I think we just said that lighting the candle, I'm a light of candle. We could everyone we can see the fact that we already said that.

But I love you, you know what. I have an idea.

Rather than complain about how you don't listen and then repeat what we just said, I'm gonna just say it twice. I think, you know what. From now on, I'm gonna say everything twice and then that way we don't repeat it. I think that's a great I'd see that's a positive way of handling. Am I crazy?

No?

Okay, As I was in deep thought, I'm sorry.

Okay, never apologize for being in deep thought. Hey, what were you thinking about? If you're gonna be in deep thought, you saying you're in deep thought, tell me what you're thinking about.

No, I just I got a lot going on, a lot happening in my life, in my personal life and everything like that, lot going on because.

He never is in deep thought normally. Remember it's a blank.

Yeah, you told us you don't think.

No, but today I am today, Okay, all right, all right, Well then okay, maybe it's good just to kind of you can back out a little bit and just think about what you need to think about. That's allowed. That's the beauty of this show. We have so many people here thinking for you, you don't have to think. So blue Monday, according to this texter, is dumb. I don't I hear what they're saying, though. There's a people need to vent. Yeah, okay, so I get that. Sometimes the thing is you can vent, but you don't want to vent to the point where it makes other people feel negative. It feel negative, you know what I'm saying. I don't. I don't want to bring someone else down with my venting. I guess there's got to be a more positive way to be negative. Can we work on that?

I feel like I could do. Like God, he was saying, like, maybe every Monday try it. Yeah, a whole month. That's a lot.

A lot happens in a month, man, A lot to ask for.

All Right, So blue Monday, Yeah, okay. People complaining that I just wasted five minutes of their lives talking about blue Monday. So I went not to get into the truck this morning to take the trash out whatever in the five degree weather that's before it went down to three. Not complaining, just giving the stating facts, right, you're stating facts. There's a difference.

There needs to be a.

List of things you do not leave in your car if it's below freezing, like, well, I learned the hard way aerosol cans.

Oh no, yeah, what was the hard way? What happened?

Well, they they.

Need to get that. They need to vent. That's what they need to do, just like we all do. Exploded sort of, Yeah, I just started spraying. But can like anything in a can, anything that's sealed.

I read water bottles, like plastic water bottles are terrible because when it freezes, it does something to the plastic that releases chemicals and ichy ste really into the water when it unfreezes.

Good medication. You shouldn't leave kids or pets or people you love in there.

It's I think it is very good for leftovers though, because it's refrigerated, so if I forget it in the car, I can delete it.

The next without doubt.

You know what, you know, you were talking about going out on your back deck, your back steps, and there was like a castor old dish from Christmas the week before out there. You forgot about what was a salad?

Maybe out there?

Now?

What?

I got beer out there? Now the fridge so we got like a couple of six packs of beer on the backboard.

Explode.

I don't think no, I think they're okay, okay, they were actually in bottles like a beer bottles glass.

They'll they'll pop a top.

Yeah, what happened.

They will happen. But it's outside, so who cares. That's the thing.

You know, we do have advantages as you're listening to us in seventy five degree Miami, we have advantages to being below freezing here the Northeast putting beer bottles outside. Yeah, and even though we have critters running around at night. You know, if if you have something it's too big to put the refrigerator leftovers, put them out there on the on the on the picnic table and seal them, cover them up. I've done that before.

It works.

Yeah. See, I'm starting to love this cold weather. After all, it's nature's refrigerator. What can I say? Anyway, I just got a text. It's a negative twenty in Nebraska.

All right, negative twenty.

It's not even safety go outside?

No? Is it?

Or is it not?

I don't think so.

Well. I'm going to home depot today because I found out during the snowstorm that I need I don't have a shovel. I don't have like that thing you use they get the snow.

Off the car.

I don't have all of those snow brush, a snowbrush, ice scraper. I don't have those things. And I need gloves. I need gloves, heavy newty gloves because my little mittens from the gap don't really cut it. Are you guys ready and for the winter frigid storm?

No?

Whether absolutely not.

And all of my plants are leaning away from the windows. My god, feel, really I feel.

But there's still sunshine. They don't like the cold sun cold.

I'm not even kidding. My tree just leaned off like thank you?

All right? So I guess number one? Bring in family and pets. Yeah, grandma off the porch, Bring grandma in off the porch. But grandma loves beer. That's where we'll find her later.

Elvist ran in the morning show.

Is Andrew around yet? Have you seen Andrew?

This morning's here?

He has discovered for the first time ever Costco. Have you heard about his?

Really?

He reached out like, Hey, it's look at this Costco membership.

Are you down to go?

Hell?

Yeah, let's do it. Where is he Andrew? Daniel?

Can you get Andrew place? I know, but I want to hear you screen for Andrew. There you go, and there he is immediately Daniel.

It works.

It works every time. So, I mean, had you never been to a Costco before? I had been to a Costco as a kid, I would go on church with my mom. But as an adult, this is a brand new experience and I'm obsessed with I've heard you use the word mecca in a way. It's your new mecca.

It is my mecca.

On Sundays, I go for my spin class, then I go for my Costco run. I want.

It's just there is nothing better. There is nothing.

Wait, wait, there's a spin class at Costco. I'm not hearing this run. I wish I'm going to start teaching one there because I'm going to start living there soon. Okay, So what slapped you upside the head as an adult that didn't grab your attention when you were younger and you went to Costco back then, the concept of buying in bulk. It's like you go to the store. Sure, well, I get like a package of four burgers when you could get a pack of forty.

Then you don't have to go shopping again. It's great room for all of that.

Yeah, you got a freezer room at home. You got plenty of freezer room for that.

You know.

I am running into that issue? Is that I have bought now too much?

Okay.

There was a time I was totally addicted to Costco. Okay, and we called it Costco co op because I would let my friends know I was going and we I would go buy the you know, eighty Hamburger patty box and then you know, we would split them up and my friends would take theirs. I mean, so you can buy them ball yeah, yeah, yeah, you can buy and bulk at the same time. You kind of spread the love to your friends, but they need to agree ahead of time. What it is, you're boy, I'm trying to get Gandhi.

In on my co op. I'm in.

I don't know that I can get down on the forty burger patty thing with you.

No, for sure, for sure we could start small baby.

You know, like paper towels. Yeah, maybe some detergent, Yeah, stuff like that.

I'm in. It's it's got everything.

And then afterwards, oh oh, I want a little snack for my shopping trip. A chicken bake, the hot dog pizza.

They have really good pizza, Yes they do. Is that the Kirklands pizza? Is that at Costco or is that the other one?

No, it absolutely is. They may they don't take it out of the freezer cook it, do they? I mean, they they're fresh, aren't they?

They are? They're fresh.

So I read into this issue because I did also see that you could buy the pizzas in the freezer section. So I'm wondering if it's the same, I'll do a.

D I don't know.

Why don't you find out next time you go to Costco, which I'm sure will be today by chance.

Have you bought Costco pants yet?

Yeah?

Pants?

And yet now you're you're officially as Cody and.

Yes.

So I love the fact you can go to Costco and get chicken, a pizza, tires and a cough it right.

I know, always buy stuff you don't need if you walk down every aisle, Like if you go to Costco and know exactly what you need, you make a list and you say, these are the things I'm getting.

It's great.

But if you walk up and down every aisle, you will talk yourself into stuff that you know you don't need. You're but you're gonna load.

You gotta know that going in, Froggy, because that's a good point you need to know going in that it could turn into total craziness. I walked out with everything bagel seasoning for no reason.

I need everything else.

I do.

Toast with that is delicious.

Oh my Godvado toast. They have avocados and they have soured dough bread. Everything you need to all the above. So Scotty b Scotty be the resident professional shopper on our show, and I say professional, he gets paid to shop. This guy knows, so Costco for you, Scotty be, what does that look? I very rarely go there because just buying in bulk doesn't mean you're necessarily saving money. However, I went the other day for toilet paper and sugar free peanut butter cups, and I spend three hundred and fifty two dollars.

What.

Yes, obviously obviously you went off the list and bought some other stuff. Well, because I must go up and down every aisle when I go to a store, and that's a problem.

Oh well, I have a question. So on Instacart, if you order on instacar and I want to order bulk, and I do Costco, I don't have to have the membership, right the person who's doing the shopping has.

The members No, No, I would get your membership me as the shopper. You have to be a member.

Oh I can, because I do. I've done it too.

It's a different service. It's not Instacart that does it. It's a different one.

But I think because of that, you pay a little bit more for every single I mean, which you do with any of these.

Makes anyway you can?

We have, they've eyeglasses, they have insurance, engage sometimes, yeah, the engagement rings.

Diamond says they sell gold bars.

Yeah.

Yeah.

As a matter of fact, they were selling out when we did this story originally several months ago. I am yeah, okay, So there's a little bit of everything at Costco. I'm glad you've rediscovered it. But I'm seriously seriously telling you now, Andrew, it's gonna get out of hand unless you work with friends like Gandhi and and Josh and you know all the above, and you know, you guys, you kind of have to vote on what you want to buy and bring home and split it up. Yes, yeah, I do need someone to go with me, because then I do walk out with like just stuff for months and months and then you know where am I going.

I live in a one bedroom apartment. I don't have that much room.

You can bring some of that Kirk beats off here, though, so good.

All right, So there you go. Costco is his new mecca. It's the best they do, so they do. They do sell coffins there, But Scary was saying his cousin Carmen, I wanted Scary to join him to go coffin shopping over the weekend, and Costco is the way to go. We didn't go to Costco.

We went to the funeral home.

Well, why are you laughing if someone if someone is in the mindset to buy a coffin, there's a reason why.

It's nervous laughter. It's it's like he's just preparing. He's just I don't know, He's got nothing wrong with him, he said, he's a totally healthy guy. He's like, look, I'm the last in my line of people on my side of the family, so why don't you help me out? So I went with him, and it was it was a crazy experience because I'm like, I've never.

Did you go?

You went to a funeral home and shop for coffin?

I went with him?

Yeah, I went with it.

He did. He picks went out for himself.

No, are there different like it features and accessories?

Oh?

Yes, they come in different they come in different grades.

They stand with steel and black and bluetooth speakers, stuff like that.

It's wild.

They smart a smart coffin in case you wake up.

But I was not. I was not prepared for it. But look, but you know what you're saying.

It's kind of creepy, but he's that's very smart to get it done, don't have to think about it and ever, again and again. Another reason to go to Costco. They sell everything there, true, they sell everything at Costco. You can go there for a coffin and then go to the pharmacy to get something to stop your coffin. You know what I'm saying at.

Who's with me? Who's with me?

All right? Teddy Swims. I think he's gonna be on with us in less than two weeks. I love this song for tet just a small town.
