You know, when you read the story, all of our best go out to you. Our hearts are warm, full of love for you. Sad story, beautiful. We'll get into that and more news coming up.

We'll start with you, Bethany, what's on your mind today? There are so many people that scramble through their whole day and just run, run, run, Especially if you're up this early in the morning, you're probably one of those people. The biggest mistake you can make is to sit down. Because yesterday I was running all day. I sat down at seven pm and went, yeah, and I was done. Gravity pulls you down. It's just it's over, it's over. Well, yesterday I went down and then I watched the last two episodes of Feud. Is It fantastic? Fantastic? That was awesome, Daniel, what's up with you today? So I realized that in certain parts of you know, the listening areas, the weather is so unpredictable, and lots of people will put away their summer clothes and bring out there. You can't do that anymore. You have to have something for every type of weather because it's sixty five degrees and then the next thing, it's that's why Scary wears a T shirt every day. Yes, pretty much. It's ridiculous. Yeah, it is. You need more closet space because it's just not enough. Mommy nature, she's sure as unpredictable, isn't she never talk about. She's more powerful than we'll ever be. Good morning, Froggy and beautiful South Florida. You're waking up to an incredible ultra Fest weekend. Three days. Actually, today's day number two, right, Yeah, Well it started to drink and started last night, but the party and starts today exactly. I mean, all of our favorite medium artists are in town and people are walking around like it's a day of the dead, sucking on crazy lollypops that are infused with all sorts of men made drugs. Anyway, Ultrafest weekend in South Florida, you have a beautiful weekend on the way. Tell me what you're all about today. Well, yesterday I head to the mailbox and there's a package in the mailbox, and so I go to open it up, and I'm like, I didn't order anything, Lisa says, I swear I didn't order anything. I look at my son. He says, Nope, not mine. Open it up. It's a shirt for Danielle's son. Why is it at your house? Well, I couldn't quite figure that out. So I'm guessing that Lisa daniell buy each other so much stuff and send it to themselves that our addresses are saved in our Amazon and Etsy account. You're getting each other's stuff and we've each other. This is the sign of a major problem. Major major. All right, let's get into your horoscope.

He said, well, what are you doing on your show that you wish you weren't doing? I said, the horoscope. But well that's the problem because I remember several times in years past we've tried to eliminate them and people scream yell, kick, cry, pick it downstairs. So we have to do the horoscope. So they're here begrudgingly. Don't get rid of them, because it's really nice for us to not have to think too hard. We just get to read what's on the paper, all right. Well, let's not make you think too hard, bethany uh, which is a great thing to say to someone who's about to give you your news headlines. You know what, it's kind of a weird day in news.

I'm the party thrower, you really are. Thank God for these new rits, Crisp fins, these rich Crispin things. If you had them. Oh yes, serving size one box. Yes, just like the name suggests. They're thin, they're crispy, they're oven baked, they're not fried. They're amazing. They come in four flavors. Let's vote for our favorite flavor. The first flavors sea salt. That's amazing. They also have cream, cheese, and onion. Yeah, they have bacon flavor and salt and vinegar. Oh, my husband like that. I know, you know what. These are fabulous. So if you want to add a little something something to your next party, add some more flavor. Think about the New Rit Crispin thins. They're not potato chips. We're done with potato chips. We now serve the New Ritz. They normal people. They talk about everyday things. Do you get into light bondage of Elvis in the Morning Show? Seriously, let's just talk about tampons. You know what I know. When Hurricane Katrina rolled through, we had to go out and find items for families and trash bags, canned food, you know, diapers, you know everything, cleaning supplies. But women also, you know, women were out of their homes, they didn't have a place to go. They needed feminine protection. They need in tampons. They needed pads and stuff like that, and no one, no one would the guys on the radio wouldn't talk about it. I was like, are you stupid? Women need this stuff? You know? It makes a lot of guys uncomfortable to talk about it, to think about why I don't. I don't know. Some guys won't even go to the store to get it for their significant other, Like, they won't do it. They just want, I'm not going to buy that for you? Are you crazy? Two guys credits. There are a lot of guys who are cool with it, so but we need them and most of the time we forget them and the things shows up when you just at least expected. There you go. It rolls in rolls. I wish I remember the comic who said this, but this was years ago. He said that if he ever had something that required supplies once a month, he would build a shed in his backyard and stock it with those things. Yeah, you have a tampon shed. It's just funny to me. Here it is seen and there's still issues. There's still things that some some guys are just let's not talk about that. Yeah, I'd rather not talk about tampons very unsavory. Let's talk about a reptile dysfunction instead. Yeah, when I remember when I was a kid, a tampon commercial will come on and you know, the whole room and look the other way. It's just it's just a way of life. What the way it is. If you go and buy them and you're embarrassed, you'll put like nine other things on the counter, like pack of gum, a pair of I don't know, you know, shoes. Even women, even women are embarrassed by tampon. So one time I had to go in that's all I needed, and I knew the guy behind the counter was just going to stare at me, like, oh, she's the time of the month. So I bought a couple of other things because I didn't want him to think that, well, now you're a gum chewing woman on her period. I mean, now you're a gum chewing woman who's eating kit cats and you're on your period. I just say, go and slap them down and be like, yep, I'm a woman of childbearing age. We don't do that, like this is a thing that happens. Don't do that. I mean, just just just buy them. You don't way, well whatever, why do we care what people think? All right, I'm going to have sex. I'm going to put a condom on my Wiener happy. I mean what, I don't understand why people get embarrassed by condoms. It's proof that you're having sex. It's but it's what it is. It's this you don't want them to visualize as a guy great to work with me, froggy. You don't want someone behind the counter visualizing you opening a condom with your teeth and then rolling it on. You know, you don't want them thinking of you in that way. You just want to sneak in by your stuff, sneak out. You don't want to be thought of. It is anything other than a guy buying something. Now, as a woman, you shouldn't have to go in and declare, I'm a woman and I need I need to absorb. I need to absorb, so buying typos you know you shouldn't need to do that. It's just a way of your life. I would just like to say that I think that I'm a kind of guy where I'm much more as as Bethley was describing, a guy that's much more comfortable with some of these issues and things that women needing whatever. Being the dad of two little girls and my wife kind of like, you know, breaking me into you know what I'm in store for in the next couple of years. You know, we're open to all this. We have these conversations at the house constant. See, you shouldn't even have to say what you just said. That's my point. You're right. You don't just say, hey, I'm open to tampons. Good morning one, How are you one? It's so good that we've missed you. So one is calling to say he has no problem buying time tampons for his wife, but his wife won't buy condoms for him. Those are condoms are for her too. If you think about it. Hell no, look I just out of there. I tell her, I tell her, shouldn't that be double standards? Though? I tell her, Look, Mama, go to the store, buy some condoms. See how you feel. If if you know, see how you feel, going and buy some condoms, that should equal the same as if a man goes by his for for his woman. But wait a minute, think you thinking about this. If you buy, if your wife buys tampons, those are for her. But if she buys condoms that is for both of you. So she's what do you mean? No, I mean were you're putting on a condom. It has nothing to do with your wife, No, No, I just want to see if she will buy the condom. Sometimes women feel like they're looking at you like you're a slut because you're buying. Like I'm having too much. I'm having I'm having sex, I'm a slut. You're being safe about it. People need to get over it. Want It's so great to hear from you. You have the most fabulous day ever. Alright, god father, there he goes, We love one. Hello, Ali, Hi, talk about how great your dad is. My dad is so wonderful. He goes out and finds me in my tampons all the time. He asked me what kinds I want? Um. He's been doing it for years, and he was actually really upset when I called my mom, who was on vacation when I first got my period, and I didn't tell him about it instead. He's such a good man, he is. He's so wonderful. We were in the city one day and I forgot my first control at home and we were supposed to stay there overnight, and I told my mom that I forgot it, and my dad was like, okay, let's go home. Okay, so you bet you draw the line somewhere, Daddy, I forgot my vibrator. Can you run over to my house? Can you? Can you grab my man o war? Yeah? I have a new one. It's a big box. It's called Alien. Can you grab that out of the closet? And my rascally rabbit? Yeah, you don't want to bring so there is a line to draw. But that's really cool. You tell your dad that we voted him Dad of the Day. Thank you so much. I love you guys so much. You have a great guy you too, alle Can I just say to like this straight guys listening, that is the kind of man we want. Yeah, if you're afraid of like tampons or pads or condoms or like talking about it, listen to how the women all reacted to hearing that story about how that that's the kind of guy we're looking for. There you go, Hi, Scotty, I'm doing okay. You say this is just a bunch of crap. You have no problem purchasing any of this stuff right, not at all. It's one century and not only do I buy tampons for my wife. I'll do. I mean, come on, for I clipped a coupon to save money on tampons, to save on tampons. But do you know what I just I can't believe we've devoted as much time to it, but it is such a big deal for some people. I guess we are. This is what our show does. We make things into a big deal. Tampons are also good for you know, bloody noses. So you guys should be you know, walking down the street with a stream coming out of your nose. It's just like you do, did I do quite often? High Scott and thanks for listening to us. Have a good, good one. Okay, thanks you two guys. Take care here you go. So let's just move forward with this. Let's move forward and stop thinking about what tampons or condoms or lou but you wanna talk about lubee, well, I don't know, just you know, any kind Chris. I have this vision of my brother when we were kids and we had like, you know, pads instead of tampons, and remember him taking the sticky back off of all of them and sticking them all over. We used to do that to French cars. In high school, we were tampon their cars because it's fun because we were out of oreos. I mean, come on, did you ever oreo someone's cars?

So the other morning, Uh, yeah, you you left the second most important thing in your day at home when you came to work, Yes, I did. Can you live far from here? Yeah, So you couldn't go back and get no, I could. There was no option to go back. Of course. The most important thing in your life your your mobile phone. Yeah, But the second most the second most important thing, the thing, the item you left at home was my wallet. So I took an Uber to work. So all I needed was my phone to order the Uber. And I walked at the house and I had no money. All I had was my phone, and I realized I can mainly live my life without any money ordering things on my phone. I got my coffee on my Starbucks app. I got my lunch on seamless and anything with Apple Pay I can buy, you know, at the drug store across the street. The one thing that I couldn't get home with was mt A card I needed. I had to borrow money from somebody for an mt A card. But once I got to the port authority to get back to New Jersey, my bus passes on my phone. Is that what you're asking everyone for? Four dollars? We were wondering, Yes, you're panhandling in your own office. But you know, you know this conversation as we're sitting sitting here, going wow, that's right, that's amazing. In about a year, this will be just okay, big deal. This will be the equivalent of what is Internet exactly. So you know those things in your pocket, those dollar bills, those fives, those tens, they're just they're gonna be obsoletely, just a thing of the past, just any minute. Now. It's really crazy how quickly this happens. When I first moved to New York four and a half five years ago, there were still some cabs that only took cash, and now everything is cash and they were piste. Remember when they first had to start using charge cards, they were not happy that charge cards don't. I mean, it's to the point now where I don't even whip out my cards anymore. You can just spoop and you're you're done, off your phone, but we can. You know, here's what we're doing. We're recording this conversation. We can play this back in two years and we're gonna be laughing at ourselves. Like, listen to us. Remember when we played the Today's Show conversation about Internet? What Internet? They're they're having a conversation on the Today Show NBC? What does Internet? I don't know? What do you mean? They send us email in our address? Is the the A with the circle around it and then my name the at the at sign this is from. Wasn't how stupid they sound? It wasn't to translate that as with the A and then the ring around it at So that's what I said, um case if it was about yeah, but I've never heard it around I've never heard of said. And then it sounded stupid what I said at violence at NBC and heard you around here about an e there is violence at NBC. G E. Calm, I mean, well Allison should know. What do you say that now? Anyway?

Elvis Durant in the morning show the sound Drop from PEPs Hey, what's up come months? Everything that I've been working towards is now a part of what I do every day. So I feel very blessed. Visit the sound drop dot com. So I was reading through BuzzFeed this morning and these are actually kind of fun. How many of these weird habits do you have? Are you ready? Do you ever wonder if other people share the same habits as you? And I'm gonna read the ones from BuzzFeed, but we'll come up with our own. I'm sure when you leave a store without buying anything, do you ever get worried that they think you're shoplifting? Every time, people said, yes, that's when you write the word Wednesday. Do you sound it out in your head as Weddness day of us to February is the same, Bry. Do you pace around and fidget with stuff when you're on the phone. Yes, I can't just sit there and have a conversation. How would be doing something? There was a full asleep? Do you this is great for especially for us. Do you cringe when you hear a recording of your own voice? Yea, I do. I hate my voice. It's mine is terrible, don't I don't you know? I have to agree, not my favorite. You have a great voice, well know to you, but it's it's our own. They say, there is a science behind this, The scientific whatever behind it is you sound different to you than you do to other people when you speak. So when you're a recording of your voice, you're hearing something that you don't hear when you speak, because when you speak, it's about how your head is built. Yeah, like reperberates around inside your own head, so you're hearing it from within your head exactly a little bit. So so if I recorded me saying hi, how are you, and I play it back, I hear something different than what I said, But they say most people hate their own voice because of that, I hate mine. Do you ever worry that other people are judging you for how fast your windshield wipers are on when it's raining? Lightly? Yes, because I'm like, I might be only more on that. Yea, how fast is there? I always look around? Is people say? Yes? So when you're reading a book, you read a whole page, then you can't remember any of it. Said yes to that. Do you ever close Facebook or Twitter or whatever because you're bored with it? Then open it back up one second later without thinking yes, said yes. It's the same thing with your refrigerator. You open it to see that there's nothing to eat. You close it and you're like, oh open. It's like you open the refrigerator, there's nothing there. You close the refrigerator and go abricaba, and you open it thinking that the frigid air ferry showed up to bring you some lunch. Do you ever respond to your pet by saying I know after they bark or me out, Yes, I know it's right, I know I know what scary. So I go the extra mile at the store to prove I'm not shoplifting. I'll go pull your pockets out. Well, I do that, but I'll go out to the to the front of the store and I'll ask a supervisor for a fake item that I know that they don't have, and when they say no, they don't have it, I make sure they see me walk out because he's there. That's creepy. But I will tell you, like there were times when you know my stoner days, I would buy myself. I drive through the drive through McDonald's and I'd order enough food for two people, but I'd make sure I ordered two drinks so they would think I was buying a meal for someone else. Yeah, Froggy. No. I when our neighbor's dogs bark sometimes outside, and so I'll be outside with rock and I'll go loud enough taken hear me. I know, Rocky. I wish they'd let their dogs in the house too, so they'd stop barking. Yeah, speaking to the animals, speaking to your pets. We've talked to about that before. I love Alex will look at little Maxie and go, hey, little Maxie, I wish Daddy would do the dishes. Can you imagine, little Maxie, how great our apartment would smell if Daddy just did the dishes, and max Is look at him like dirt back to the like saying I know to two dogs and cats. I used to do that to my nieces when they were babies, and they would cry too. It would be sobbing and sobbing. Of course didn't speak English yet, and I'd be like, I know, I know, I know, it's a baby, and look at you like they don't even look at you. They don't even see you'azed over. They're little bitty blobs of protoplasm. They have no idea you you exist, Hi, Josh, Hey, good morning, good morning. So it's sprinkling lightly, raining lightly, and you turn on your windsholl wipers. No, no, I don't even turn them on. That's the thing. I wait until I passed to the cars, and then I'll do that one click motion and uh and then I won't turn it back on until I really need them. Now you're doing that for them or for you? No, just for me, man. I don't feel like I feel like people judse me for even using the wipers. Isn't that weird? Though? I think we're all a little strange. Josh, You're as odd as we are. I love that about you. Yeah, I had a second thing on so y'all talked about the animals. Uh, it's not one of my dog barks because she's she's a real quide don't but she's got this thing where she likes to huff and puff like she's really stressed out. I always tell you that's exactly how I feel, exactly, Like all your dog is doing is breathing, but you're like reading something into it that really isn't there. We we project things on our patch that just aren't there. You know, you think you're going down. What's your dog's name, Josh, Juju Juju? So you think you go down and you kissed Juju right there on the lips or on the cheek rather than what you do. But what Juju is thinking, oh god, oh god, the head's getting closer. Oh god, no, no, gonna be on and then goes yeah, and you go, yeah, I feel the same way, And so we think there there, we think our pets are saying something. They're not saying anything. They really are nothing that we think all right, Josh, thank you man. We brought up a lot of good points. Yeah, and transference, what do you call it's projecting, protecting. But but except for with your animal, your animal is actually really smart. Yeah. Hi Meredith, Hi, what's your question? Well, I actually had a comment about Facebook. We do Facebook, Okay, go ahead, But sometimes when I'm on Facebook, I find that I have the idea to check Facebook when I'm just mindlessly strolling through Facebook. Oh yeah, I've done that before where you go back up to like your favorites and click on it again and it just starts overy like, oh I realized that was already hunted page. Yeah, sid Or Like I'll be on Instagram and be like, gosh, I wonder what's going on on Instagram. I'm on Instagram. I'm on it right now. Yeah. I mean I think we it really shows us how mindless social media is. I mean, we're just it's it's it's it is mindless, which kind of scares me. We are not. If we're not using our mind heavily when we're scrolling through through social media, then when are we using our minds not as much as we used to. I don't know, maybe I'm reading way too much into this, all right, Meredith, thank you, Thank you for listening to us first and foremost, love you more have a great day to day. Let's get into your headlines, hid Bethany, Hello, Hello, one more thought from Froggy. What's up? Frog? But do you drive in the car and when you can't find your way you turn the radio down? Absolutely? Why? I have to focus? No, it does. I have to focus when I'm driving. If if I'm coming to a like, Oh, what do I do? I gotta I gotta turn the sound down because I have to focus. I get that though sound is distracting. You know, they say that, you know what, you can't use your phones and talk to people while you're driving. They're saying that what we're doing right now is distracting. Oh look, you just missed your exit listening to this kind of station, didn't you How many times that we had people call us I was listening to your show and I just missed my exit?

He drove the car into pedestrians on Westminster Bridge and was shot and killed as he tried to storm the houses of Parliament and stabbed a police officer. Seven people have been arrested in connection to the attack. British Prime Minister Theresa May says that the attacker was British born and had once been investigated by m I five. You know, one, if you have any friends over there, don't forget to say a little hello. They were thinking about you. We're also thinking about our friends in Wisconsin today. Four people in northern Wisconsin were shot and killed yesterday. One of those people was a police officer. It happened in Wasaw, which is about ninety minutes outside of Green Bay. Police are saying it was a domestic dispute at a bank that escalated into shootings at three locations. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell says that changes are coming this year to make NFL games quicker. A lot of times you'll see a commercial break kick off than another commercial break.

So I'm Darren Chris and I are going to see Sunset Boulevard on Broadway tomorrow. We're gonna have lots of cocktails, you know. And Darren me, I don't get recognized in public. Who cares? And I'm a radio guy, no one whatever. I'm just like the guy who works at the donut shop. I'm just I'm here for you every day. Whatever. Darren Chris, a lot of people know who he is, so I had to get us two tickets for Sunset Boulevard. It was my job to get the tickets. So I told Andrew my sister, I said, let's get the tickets like in the middle of the aisle. So Darren has to like rub his famous butt in everyone's face as he gets and then people would, oh, dar Darry Chris. I'm actually gonna stand up and point this is Darren Chris, remember him from Glee. Darren Chris. All right, our date is tomorrow night. I'll get back to your Monday. Let you know how I went. Alrighty, hey, uh So you know, not everyone has it, you know, in their heart or mind to have enough courage to fly into outer space. You know, in this day and age, you can actually sign up and reserve a seat on these flights that are scheduled to fly way way up in the sky, like these tourist moon flights. Yeah, I mean, and they're very expensive. But the question is this, would you take a one way trip to Mars? Think it through, you can't get back. About five years ago, there's a company called Mars One. They announced free trips to Mars. The only catch it's a one way ticket. Believe it or not, tens of thousands of people have applied for the chance to actually die on Mars. I was I was listening to actually a news story about this this morning, talking about they were saying what kind of a person would want to do this? They weren't saying it judgmentally, They were like asking. And there are different mentalities that you would have to go through as the trip progressed, like when you saw Earth leave your view, that would do something to you psychologically knowing you will never see that again. And the first person I thought would be actually really good for this, Nate is Nate Yea because Nate always says he's ready to run away and never come back. Now, so let's talk about it seriously. And I'm not making fun of you or anything. What makes you and your type of personality the kind who would say goodbye to everything and everyone you know because you're done empty, fly to Mars, You're not coming home. I think a lot of people that have traveled a lot or have lived in a lot of different places. You don't feel any connection to any sound going crazy, uh, any You don't really feel any connection to one place, so you in your head say, well, I could go anywhere, then okay, okay, that's one place, but what about people? Do you have any connection to any one person? Once you leave, you're done, You're not coming. I get it. But there's a sense of exploration that some people have, that you want to go places that nobody's been before. And I feel like I have that. Okay, But the thing I must assume that if you want to go away to a place that no one's been before, you do want to come back and tell the story to someone. You can't. There's but there's and there's nothing there. But think of the people that explored five years ago. A lot of them went somewhere, discovered a new place, and they didn't come back. That's a good point, and they were the ones that started it. Why we're here. He'd go down in history absolutely. And the thing I know about Nate hanging out with him outside of work is that Nate Nate's mentality is that, like he is really good at taking taking people with him, like inside of him, if that makes sense, Like he takes memories with him of people, but he doesn't necessarily need to be with people all the time. How many people have you head inside? That was so poorly Sorry, but you know what I'm saying, Like he can take the feeling of like having people around him with him. He doesn't necessarily need to be around people a lot. I just I must assume that it sounds like something you would you would think about doing, but once you did it, there there would be a moment you'd be like, uh, yeah, there's a it's permanent, permanent, I think. I mean to us, you're as good as dead. You know you will it's a one way ticket. If you don't see your family anymore, your mom or you wouldn't, you won't, you can't come back. Your mom would not like that. She wouldn't know there is a problem there. Let's go talk to Kristen. Hi, Kristen, would you like a one way ticket to Mars? Oh? Yeah, definitely. We'll meet your roommate Nate. Let's go. I'm for a what do you for? God? Yeah, I hope they have Tito's vodka on that fine. So, Kristen, I mean, this isn't just a fun thing. I'm serious. Once you leave, you you can't come back. You're done. I know. But that's like it's it's a once. I mean, obviously, it's a once in a lifetime thing. But it's a lifetime thing. Yeah, but it's something you would never you would never go to see your experience otherwise and it's not like that anyways. All right, well that's a whole other topic there. Okay, so okay, but I just I didn't see I think what's great about this conversation is it really points out how different we all view our lives and the world because, for instance, going on vacation, let's let's let's just pull it way back. Uh, there are some people who just cannot go on vacation by themselves, and uh, because they are having such great time. It's a great time at the Eiffel Tower or in London or in you know, on a beach, they have to be sharing it with someone. And so, Mars, you can't bring it back. You can't share it with anyone. It's all about you. Really. But one day someone will, someone will be able to go there and come back. I have no doubt that is going to happen. But it's not going to happen without somebody going there first. Hey, you know what national geographic I don't know if you saw this Christian in Nate and everyone, our friend Ron Howard and UH and others produced this incredible, incredible UH documentary about and actually it's like a doctor drama about people the first people who colonized Mars. And they're saying it's going to happen. The thought is, and this is way way forward thinking. The thought is Earth will cease to exist. We're gonna kill it. It's gonna kill itself. It's just the way it's going to be eventually. Not this week, but you know, in the in the future. So colonized. Colonizing on Mars is the only way to keep the human race alive. They're saying that human race will not survive on the planet Earth. Again, No one get crazy. This is a trillion light years away. Why don't we who we say that? Don't you think this is a good place to say criminals right now? Like, if they're not coming, when them, I wouldn't send criminals there because we may need that. I would need the criminals here and I would go to Mars. I mean one time we sent the criminals to Australia. Now that's turned out to be the most fabulous place on Earth. That's what Australia was about. And where do we put these criminals send them down under where those funny things are bouncing around with pockets on their stomach. You know who doesn't want to be in Sydney for the day or for the week anyway. So you know they're saying that one day we will have to colonize elsewhere otherwise we will all die out. This is my question, and I don't know if you have the answer necessarily, but would you be a group of people who are going there to be hopefully joined by another wave of people? Kristen, Kristen on the phone, Are you so you would know? I'm just like, would you be like or would you be the only people who are there forever? That's my question. I would need to know if there are more people coming or if I'm stuck with these same ten people. So, Kristen, question, would you be one of the first to go to Mars for her and in hopes that you are building a place for others to join you there, like you're building You're building a colony, that's what you're ask Yeah, that's what I'm asking. Yeah, I would do that. So you're not going just to hang out with Nate. You're going there because you're actually building something you're building a place where people can live. Yeah, it's like if there were other people going, which it sounded like there was. If there were other people going, like definitely, I would be down. So the purpose of going there is to set up life on Mars. It's not just to go to get away and prove that you can get there in the first place. Right there is getting there is have to maybe nine tenths of the bat. I see what you're saying. Yeah, well look so if it's your job, Look, there's it's one thing to to say, screw this, I'm leaving, I'm going to Mars. It's another thing to say, you know what, I'm working with other people and building a new world for human beings. Yeah, there's a purpose for it. Yeah, I'm I'm setting up a Starbucks and exactly blowout salons. You're doing it, you know, all right, Kristen, you and Nate have fun on Mars. Thanks for spending time with us. Okay, thank you? What's up? Scary? I know it sounds shallow, Elvis, but I realized I do it. Would I do really think that Mars. Going on a one week trip to Mars appeals to only people that have something to cover up or high like tax evasion or murdering someone. Al Right, well, then give me some famous explorers. Give me some names. They actually literally the only one I know we went back to Spain. But there are many people who actually went from our east coast to our west coast and up into Canada. And people who were explorers didn't know where they were going or if they would ever come back. And some didn't go back, but they didn't do it because they were running from the law. They did it because they wanted to get out there and see what's what's out there? And that's why they that excitement you just had right there what's out But traveling from here to California versus here to Mars, you know, being different, and you you're saying, well, one day we'll be able to get back. It won't be during your lifetime. I don't think so. But if that, if what I do that, I'm doing interesting questions though people are thinking this through. I love Cheryl has thought it through. What's your question? Cheryl? My question would be, when you leave, how would you plan that? Would you have a funeral? Would you just leave and not tell anybody? How would you do that? Now? You'd have to tell your family. I would think, you know, it would be a very sad thing if the status going away party ever, you know what, you would never see them again. So I mean, would you do like a funeral, like a good lie But they're not dead, you know, funeral, they're not really dead. You know, they're alive, and we assume there'll be ways to communicate. We don't know, but um no, I don't know. You know, and you know what, Cheryl, this is funny because this is another conversation we're having that's being recorded and it's going to be played back one day when people are on Mars after Nate leaves. Nate, we're gonna you can take this with you, Cheryl. It would have to be like a big goodbye party. I would think that that sounds better. I think, okay, it's just better than a funeral, right, can you just lie down in act dead? Okay, Cheryl, thank you for giving that to us. I appreciate it. Yeah, thank you, thank you. What's up? Frog? I mean, Nate, what do you put on your like your your voicemail you're out of office email reply the atmosphere exactly? I really don't know what that I'll have to think about that frog. You'll get floated out of town. If you could make a phone called the leg time like call, like talking to a reporter who's in Syria, you have to wait like three seconds for them to hear you. It would be a week or two. It would be like a like a day. Yeah, you would wish the merry Christmas on Halloween. Yeah. Finally we talked to kirston Hi, kirston, Hi. What's going on? Not much? I got a call back about my text It about Mars. Okay, okay, what do you text in about? Why? Why did we call you back? So? I love to travel to explore. I'm like Nate, there's nothing more exon already than just pack him let's move here. I moved to Australia once with maybe like your two months notice, and but I cannot imagine moving somewhere or living somewhere while I would never see green or blue again as it exists out in nature for us, well you think you see, you would have to create the green and blue. You would have to create a whole new world. And uh, you know, at least in Australia, as far away as it is, you have quantas you know they're there, you get upgraded the first class. It's fabulous. But you know, I mean like if it's the movie The Martian, you know, because anything it doesn't grow there, there's you'll never get to walk outside and see the bright blue sky with green trees with fresh leaves, fresh after a rainstorm. Yeah, there is, there is that sacrifice. But there are others who, like Nate, will say, well, you are sacrificing by not going because you're not exploring what's yet to be explored. And this is my whole point of this conversation, learning about how we're all so different with this philosophy. Our friend Fred just tweeted a good point. Do you have to clear up all of your debt before you go to Mars? Credit's going to come after you cars for everybody. This is a good idea. We run up a really crazy bill and then that's you literally run away. You know what, on Mars, you'd have them trapped in it. You'd finally find someone to have sex with you and have another question do you need things up there? Like do I pack my shoes or do I not need them? I think you will figure that out. It's a whole different set of shoes. You can't come back for them, Okay, No, it'll be different types of shoes. Thank you for listening, Kirston, have a great day. Well, but until we figure this out, we'll stay here on earth. Like oh, should have got my wallet? Damn it turnaround for back ten years. I missed my flats. Is it cold or hot? I don't know. Look it up Google. There's lots there for you. All right. We can't do the Daniel report a jacket. It takes, by the way it takes, it takes over a half a year to get there. I don't have that time, all right. It's just it's it's not as simple as you think. Uh, that's only if you do get there. Getting there is at the battle. It takes half a year to get there. Yeah, I thought took longer than that. No, no, no, So you're in. Okay, we gotta take a break. Leon Else unbelievable musician, great guy. Wait till you meet him. He's coming up next.

Well yeah, but I don't want you to know that I love you, Scary. Hey. Uh So here we are. I've been so excited about this day for quite some time. You know, we bring a lot of artists to you, and we are so excited about what they have to say. What are they all about? It's so easy to say, oh, well, it's you know, great music. It sounds good. But until you get to know the artist behind the music, you really don't understand the passion that fuels it, the spark plug that makes it, makes it, makes it pop. And uh, with leon Else, we have we have first of all made a friend. But secondly we've met an artist who has a fantastic story and you can hear it in his voice and his music. It's as pure and simple as possible. Why why am I complicating things? I'll shut up now, uh. He of course, our good friend Cia heard his cover of Titanium and actually sent a personal message saying, I've never heard anything like this. Of course we heard it. We play it. Every time we play it, people cry and you know whatever. But there's so much more to him. So I tell you what. He's gonna start out with Titanium, and then he's gonna hop into another song, something new, about something else in his life. I want you to hear it. So just listen, don't don't even get out of the car. We need you for the next thirty minutes. Please welcome leon Else. Highly on good mooning. Everyone, Let's do it. We're great.

Hi am tita, I am th Damn. That's amazing? Is that what you do? After every song? You kind of giggle? I could hear after every song you have this little like a nervous laugh. Are you nervous? Are you nervous? Really, I'm like pooping myself. I would just say something else, and I caught myself, Okay, you can put yourself Leon. Leon just pooping everyone, he's pooping. Everyone's all right, Well, unbelievable. Now are you doing city? Are you doing city? Don't care? Next, No, We're gonna do a Beautiful World from Musicians on Call the other night. Oh yeah, talk about that, talk about talking about yeah, Like obviously I wasn't planning on doing it on Musicians on Call, which is amazing charity by the way. Um, it was something that I just felt was quite poignant in the times that we're going through, I think, in the world right now, and it's just about basically saying like it's okay to not always see the world in the beautiful place. You know. For me personally, I've gone through depression and I'm a d H D S. I'm up and down and all over the place, and I look at it like storms and the weather, you know, like you're in a storm at the moment, but as long as you know that there's always the storm will end at some point. And the beautiful world is always waiting for you. Yeah, there's a there's always a beautiful world out there, just sometimes you can't always see it. And that's okay as well as you just try and remind yourself, you know that it is a beautiful world, even though sometimes we go through dark times. You know. All right, let's hear it, Leon Else. If you're just turning us on, make sure you're listening to the replay channel later and hear it over and over again all day long. This is a beautiful world, Leon Else, Thank you. It's a messing things well, I just can't find them very nice. That was excellent, What a great story to get. The words to that song are just so fantastic. Let's get into it. Leon's going to come into the studio talk to us, and you know what it's come on. This is your seat right here. You have a seat, you sit right there. How are you going to wear those headphones? I was curious how you have this worked out. I'm like, round the back, you're wearing a hat. Are you afraid to take off your hat? You're afraid of underneath it? Alright, so early in the morning, you know, rolled out of bed, it's like Badhead. It's like like words will get close to the microphone. Cool. Badhead is cool. We like Badhead. It's all right, that was awesome, Thank you so much? Do you like tighten your butt up at this time of the morning. I ain't got a clue. I just sort of like squeezed tight and hope for the best. And you're like, well, that was pretty awesome. You think it's it's great you sing that song and I know you wrote it. I mean, it's from your heart, it's from your life. And then as soon as this very very touching songs over, you're like, okay, what's next, I mean, mood change? I know, right, something like when you're seeing these sad songs or ballads, they're like, you know, I think you're like this this person is like a doing yeah, you know whatever. It's because, like you know, they're just moments, you know, and I think they reflect moments that I go through which I find what I write from. I think it's pretty safe to assume these are moments we all go through. When I find what's kind of fantastic about that song and the lyrics is as bad and dark as it is, and it seems you do know that it's permanent. No, it's not permanent. It's it's temporary. There's there's a great life waiting for me. I just kind of kind of chip away and find it again, right, and said, I always think me personally, I'm always like, you know, we grew up on Disney and once upon a time and happily ever after, you know, And I think that's great, But I think real life isn't that. You know, real life isn't that. And then I've always found it hard to sort of like I've always thought so much and been like, well, that doesn't make sense, and why is it not easy? Why is it not happy ever after? Why isn't life just simple like we were taught as children? I guess. And that's where I get them questions, and that's where I write from. It's like life ain't Life's tough? And life's tough for a lot of people. And I know everyone goes through things on different levels. But you know, just because someone's got it worse than you doesn't mean that, you know, you can't have a bad day. Because it's like Sam with if someone's happier than you, can't be happy. It's the same thing you know, you're right, And I think that we're all allowed to fill these things on our own level, you know. And I think it's about saying it's okay to feel like rubbish or to have these down days, or to struggle in life, and it's okay to ask for help. And that's kind of my way why I wrote these songs. It's kind of like to let people know they're not alone in what they're feeling, because I'm just as crazy and you know whatever as them. We're getting into that in a by the way, if you're just turning us on, this is leon else his new singles called The City Don't Care, which is a fantastic part of his life as well about moving to Los Angeles to find your dreams, make them happen as a musician for you, and I want to get into that too. Okay, awesome, all right? So you were born and raised in Kent, yeah, mar Marty Margate on the southwest coast, seaside town. What kind of what kind of neighborhood you grow up in? What was it like growing up there? I grew up on a council state. We call that in England and out here, I think you call it like government housing kind of thing. So it was hard. It was hard growing up. Were you beating up as a kid? Yeah? Yeah, Why were you different? I was very different because I was quite artsy, as they would call it back then. I'd always be singing or I'd always want to. It was a bit more, I guess I'm not Maybe flamboyant isn't the right word. How would you dress differently than everyone else in your name? I'd dress the same in that sense, because it's like my mom bought my clothes. I had no choice, as I think everyone can understand that. You know, we look back at these which is like, how do they put me in this? But growing up like it was tough, like because I was always, like I said, always into singing and stuff, and you know, for example, like my stepfather was very anti everything that I've done. So growing up in a small town, which I guess back then it's like it is sometimes a small minded community sometimes you know, and you feel like you're the odd one out and need to get out there. But I was teasing at school. I was teasing. I got home, I was teasing. I woke up, I was teasing. I went to bed. Did you always know that there was a whole world out there that you were dying to go be a partner. Yeah, I did. My Nan took me to see Um Start. I expressed the musical guys, saying that was amazing. It's one of my fates, my first one I ever saw. And I remember sitting in the orders thinking, oh my god, like I need to get the hell out of Margate because I went to My Nan took me to London to sit and I remember thinking like evening else on the bus or stuff, or on the train would be like messing around and I'll just be glaring out the window. I felt like I was in a cage, you know, and I just knew that I had to get to a certain point just to get out. Because I didn't get out, I wasn't sure what was going to happen, you know. So how did you get out and and and where did you go? Well? I started my first job at twelve. Um I was pulling potatoes for the chip shop. So I would go and do that, and I'd worked like twelve hours a day. Sometimes it wasn't legal, but I'd be like, just give me the hours. I saved up my money and I'd go and put myself into the art school dance classes. So you're a dancer. I was a professional dancer, yeah, but I was like Billy Elliott and I started like and I was like fifteen, I started relates. I went to ballet and like you know, if you've seen Billy Elliot the film so he know's that scene where he's like it's really tall, boring his little girls like and he's there trying to learn. That was like me. I'd have to go and learn ballet, these tony little girls and they're all better than me. And I've done like covering, like like find myself like a you know, another situation in your life where you were a sort of odd man out. Odd man. I've always been odd And that's my fa film like Evers Hands, because I'm like that's like the odd man out, help me, you know, But now you know I'm gonna go back again. But now in this day, you probably strive to be odd man out because it seems to have always worked for you. That's why you're wearing like a crazy furry fake fur jacket to its like it's like a bag. It's like a bath man. It's been bed bath and Beyond magazine said you have best dressed man. So Elvis my bath match, I wiped my bathed feet on your bath mat. But you know this is a great example. Look, every time we bring a new friend into the Fall, we love to learn from them and find out how we can apply to our lives. I mean, if anyone is listening right now thinking, oh god, I'm always the outsider, I'm always the weirdo quat be that weird? Be the outside? The normal is boring? You know, I just think that word normal, What the hell is normal? I don't think normal really exists truly, because if I'm going to say you have a normal upbringing, well, where's the book of normal? Where's the book out? You get book? The pops out too. There's nothing normal. It's very painful normal. Let's go talk to Sarah say I say hi, Sarah, Say hi to leon Else, Hi, how are you? Hello? Good morning? How are you Sarah? I'm good. I'm stuck in traffic. Yeah, but that's good. I'm glad you're stuck today because you can hear this. So what did you think? What did you think of Beautiful World as a lion performer? For you? I just thought it was so beautiful. Um, you know, I'm sure that most people can connect in just about any way. But I'm also six months pregnant, so i feel like I'm just gonna start crying about So I'm sorry about that. But for me personally, you know, I've suffered from UM depression and UM post traumatic STRUSS because of my father passing away at a young age. And you know, it's just I can feel the emotion of the song and just you know, um, since then, I've I've gotten back, but you know, it's like talking about it and after hearing that song, it's just, you know, it's not I feel proud to feel that I've overcome that. And you know, even though I'm I'm crying and I'm sad right now, it's it's a good thing. Does that make sense? Yes, Feeling is good, even though what you're feeling is not always pleasant. You need to be able to feel. You can't experience the highs until you experience the loads, right, So what you're going through is kind of fantastic. I hate to say that, but but you know what, And by the way, I've always heard people say that they're suffering from depression. It really is more of a living with depression because you still have to you have to live with it. And so you you uh, are you on medication? Are you? Are you? Are you? Are you? We'll start with Sarah, Sarah, how are you? Are you? Are you on medication? Are you seeing someone? Are you? Are you finding ways to get through this and be cool? No? I actually, UM, I took steps before UM the birth of my first son, and I was able to um get off medication, and I since then have stop seeing my therapist, but I feel great we go back. Therapists are great, they really are. And thank you for listening to so you know people, thank you for calling Sarah. When I said a segon, when I asked the sign, ago, are you on medication? I could feel people wincing, Like that's a very personal secret thing you're asking. Tell everyone medication is fabulous. If I don't care that I take medication, but I'm actually because I may Actually I take my like my medication for that, which is kind of It helps balance you out, which helps levels me out. I don't necessarily take a depression based there's a leveling out thing, and it really helps me. It changes changes your life. But tab what's really good for people, and it's easier said than done, is that what I try and do is not always take medication every day. So I just try and exercise as much as I can, because I'm telling you what, when you're feeling down and you're feeling rubbish about yourself, get your butt to the gym, and as much as you don't want to go, sometimes drag yourself there because I tell you what, give yourself thirty minutes on doing something something in as you just get out and go for a walk. It releases natural and dolphins something as that promotes feeling better. It is scientifically proven, so you don't have to always, you know, take medication for it. Sometimes it's more severe sometimes I I do, But sometimes I try and eat well and I try and get out and be active. Medications great. I mean, if you've got to make your wiener hard, if you gotta get a headache, you know you don't want to get pregnant when you have sex, take a pill. Take old man made what what? Nate what he's yelling at me? You want to take a break, he can take a break. Take a break. We're in a we're in a groove with why Are you being a dick? Alright, I'm just trying to have a conversation and get in. But there's so much I want to talk to you about, so don't be hit all morning into the show. Let's come back tomorrow too, Okay, all right, the next day and the next after that, we're gonna take a break. I want to talk about music. I want to talk about like rushing out of your country to another country to find your dreams. I meant how much that takes guts? Does it take brains? Are you smart? Is he smart? Is he a smart guy? People don't think I'm smart because you don't like you can have a certain accent in England. They're like always sounds like it's from that kind of area. He's a bit done, But I'm not. No. Do you you think you're Do you think you're a smart I think I'm a smart guy. There you go, alright, and now I'm gonna argue with me on that. You'll kick their red all right? Uh more of Leon else coming up. We'll be right back. Call us zero one. Gulvis Duran in the morning show. Oh crap, dude, you might know Elvis from his radio show To Get Here again. We're going to stopt and part in the morning show. So here we go. We're back with Leon else if you missed this performance two songs earlier, they were fantastic. You know what, when you sing live on a rinky dink morning show, you don't. We don't have like like a professional studio here. This is just you know, little microphones we bought on eBay, and so you never know what you're gonna sound like. You sounded awesome, But but you said you were very nervous. Why why why are you nervous about anything? Because it was a five? I am and I was thought, you know, that's some morning like they do say in general, singer shouldn't sink before, right, you have to really warm up, especially things like like Titanium, Like we'll see his voice. Her voice is so epic, isn't it. You know, it's just like you just never know what's going to come out. But you sounded fine. Yeah, speaking of Titanium, did you sing Titanium at Montifire Hospital with musicians like twenty times? You know, musicians on call. We've been talking about them a lot lately, and we had the big musicians on call. Galla the other night hosted by Danielle and Bethany. Yeah, and we we take these incredible musicians likely on to these hospitals and they performed bedside, and we know that music heals. And so I heard you were warming up to go into singing for the kids. But your warm up was frightening the kids. They were scared. You were sick children. Hell told you about this, six six children were frightened. No, this is I'm gonna be honest, Okay. So I go in there obviously like it's again it's early, and um just because naturally I said the singers they should warm up, like and do you have to warm up? It's time you hold in New York compared to anyway whatever. So I get to the hospital also, you know, a bit nervous because I want to do something good. I always want to. I'm always because I was want to put my best foot forward for whoever's listening or whatever. So in this little room, they're like we can warm up in it was like can we definitely? Like yeah, but they have children in there, and I'm like, well, how can I warm up? Because when you warm up, like I said, you don't know what's coming out and it's like it sounds it sounds like a horror film sometimes. What does this sound? So I was like this, So it was like singing and it was in the higher key and I was like, you shoot me down, but I want for iron ted sounds like that. And these kids were like, like covering it is and I was just like just carrying on singing. So I'm like, I just got a warm up. I can't help it. And they were like, yeah, could you remember? Just take it down a few kids. Also, I'm quite loud, and I was like, can just take it down a few keys? Took it and I was like and then I was like I am And then you sounded great? And what else did you sing? Just that? Literally done it like twenty times. We went around to everyone's bed. You didn't do any Somewhere over the Rainbow know, is it the best song ever? Though it was a beautiful song, I just felt like I don't know. I just don't have much time to rehearse and a new Titanum I thought I could do it. Okay, now I could deliver that every time, So come on seeing Somewhere with the Rainbow for me. Um, I haven't got a lyric sheet. You're supposed to say, no, I don't, don't. I don't perform on command. I'm in a holler for a dollar. Don't you worry. I'm there, I sing, I'll sing it with you. You have somewhere on the rainbow? Okay, well what did you? But Okay, before we do that, so after you perform for these kids, some of them okay, some of them not. Okay. Yeah, it was it was definitely an eye open experience. And you could see the expression on their faces. Talk about that. What was it like when you were singing to them? It was actually more amazing than I even thought, because as there's one girl in particularly stood out to me. She was just laying in the bed and she didn't didn't and I could only go to the door, so I could even go into the room. And that must feel quite horrible for a child. I feel like, to feel that you can't touch, you can't go near, have to sound from a distance, they must feel quite separated. And then I started singing, and then as I started getting more into the song, like you could just see her face lighting up, and literally as I stopped, it's like she'd come to life. She was like, oh my God, I want to hug you, and my good that was amazing. Thank you? So like that for me was so gratifying. And to think that you can just make one It was just five minutes off someone's day. Better to break up their day and they're stuck in a place like that, it's everything then to them. So you're saying for how many how many people? Beside about twenty times, so you have twenty different stories you could tell about these people who was totally turned around. So as you were leaving the hospital, where'd you go? What'd you do? We went for lunch before. I mean, as you walked out the door, didn't you didn't it hit you? Oh my god? Like it was. It was like you almost feel a bit choked because it's just like there's me, and you know, I don't know how. You just feel like you learned about you stressed about the little things in life. You know. I was like stressing about this performance, like gotta be perfect, it's gotta be good, it's gotta be great for the kids. You know. Then you think, like Jesus, like these they really go through it, you know, and they really are brave, they really are strong, you know, And I just think it's so nice to be able to do something, you know, and then they are like, brave kids, how do you go through those performances without crying? I actually was worried. Yeah, I really will because I don't why why would you worry about crying? Which one was not worry about it. But like when you're halfway for a song and you start getting emotional. It's not a pretty side, no, but it is. If you're trying to sing and you're like Titan, no, no, it's real. Don't don't get mad at me for saying this, but it's like the money shot. If you can just let a tear go down and you're still singing beautifully. If you're like no, if you stop and you can't in the words won't come out, and you're back off the microphone, they start clapping like, oh, yes, he's a caring, feeling, wonderful audience. But like if you're a child in a hospital, who when someone's there trying to cheer you up, you don't want to see them looking. I'm talking about when he's singing at the Grammys. Singing at the Grammys, I want you to break down. God like that. We have a we have a story like I I sung for um someone show recently, a book of a show, and she asked me about some of the songs and it's very intimate setting night I haven't sung it. I was getting up to sing for her to acoustic song and she goes said, tell me about songs, and I just like, you gotta big lump in your throat, and it just got bigger because these songs are very personal to you. I'm telling you now. It was like Niagara Fools. It was just like come flying out and I just couldn't hold myself together, leave the room. But leon, look little, I've been doing this many many years. I've interviewed so many artists. This is what I've been talking about. The honesty from the artist to the listener, to me the fan. It is so important. It's so important. I mean, I'm not saying you have to break down and have a breakdown on stage when turn every song, but you know what to hear you talk about worthy songs are from and it's not just a bunch of lyrics, just not a bunch of notes coming out. They mean something. Yeah, that's what art is all about. This is where you're great at what you do. Absolutely. I felt even on stage of the night when I sing beautiful World, I still find it quite hard to my eyes water every time. Not they don't always say cry, but my eyes always well up when I sing good world life. Now, what's the other song you're saying about, you know, having sex with random people? And then but my new song that's coming out in a month about I'm kind of making it sound like that's what I'm making it sound trivial, but it's a very deep song. It's actually about It's actually about having having still having kind of love and fun in a certain kind of way, but you know that you want a different kind of love, and you're too embarrassed. Who's scared? Too worried, too terrified, too ashamed to admit that you want that kind of love or to allow yourself to deserve that kind of love. What's the name of the song, What I Won't Do for Love? Here you go. I thought that was great too. Look, leon Els is here. If you're wondering what it's all about, you gotta listen to the replay channel. There's so much going on. We really see over the rainbow. Oh my god, have a go. But these people in the room. Aren't we gonna be? No, I can't go back out now, Elvis follow through? Is this just like instrumental? Yes? Oh my cool? You have to start got and I was getting ready to do um eat Castidy. You're wrong Where the babow way are part dreams that you dreamed, what I would see ours somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly, and the dreams that you dreamed of. I totally after up. Okay, someday I wish upon a start cough. Someday I wish upon a star and wake up where the clouds are fun high my turn, where troubles about black Lemon drops high about that she needs up? That's you fun, Oh my god, somewhere the rain blue, but that's love. You're so much better with this dream that you did. This is all wrong. These lyrics are wrong. Turn that off. These lyrics are all wrong. Nothing Ryan's in this big MGM bonds that time is like really like and look at these words they're all whoever who printed this up you? I'm sorry about black let me even sounding like crap. You sound like a Grammy Award winning superstar. Did you hear that? Grammy people nominate me? You sounded like crap. Well you read the words. The words are wrong. If you read them, you'll know what I'm saying. Right. So you moved from the UK to London, I mean to Los Angeles. That's gotta be a little scary. Did you know anyone there? No, no, no one apart from my management team. I didn't know. It's exciting, though, isn't it. It was really exciting. So you're set up with the life in Los Angeles and you're it's okay, goal Leon, You're on on your market set go create a career. Go basically what was that like? It was crazy? Like I was so excited, you know when I went to sign me, so I knew that I was going out there for a purpose. It was also I just going out to, like, you know, try and hustle. I know you have to hustle, but I knew I was going out of a team that was going to help. And I literally Sarah said it who my managers, like, You're going to go to l A. So I was like, off, I went. I didn't think twice. I mean, I moved to London. I was young, got myself to London, so I was ready. I'm like I don't care. I'm later. I'm just like, go go, go go. You get to you get to l A and you know you you get caught up in the moment. It's all fun and games, it's all great, and you're hopping around here and in at this nice place here and boogie boogie boogie, and then you're like it hits you, like, oh, when a dream turns into reality, it's no longer a dream. We dream dreams in our head and they come with all these perfect scenarios. But when a dream turns into reality is a fine line between dreams and nightmares, I think anyway personally, and then you know, the dream comes with real life problems, worries, just insecurities. You don't on your own like I was on my own, and I was so engrossed because I was running from so many things in my life. Um, which I started to go to therapy start this year. Were running from everything. I feel like I was running from who was? Who were? Um? I don't know. I'm still trying to figure that out with I do know. UM, I guess like I was struggling with my sexuality. Are you sexual? I'm very sexual? Well you're gay? Yeah, So you're running from that, and how I was running? So twenty six years old, you were, you're trying to figure that out? Yeah, I was. It was because I was trying to hide from everyone. I was trying to put on this facade because I thought I was trying to be anything that you wanted me to be and what I thought you wanted me to be and everyone, and I was, And I stopped making friends because you couldn't make friends if you can't be honest. So and people would start asking questions, people start going, oh, well, who are you seeing? Or so I was just just go to work, go home, Go to work, go home. It was the same old thing every day. How did you get over that? How did you like move on? Could you seem on the surface anyway you seem really great. I'm very good at doing that. I'm very good at seeming seeming very good. I think a lot of people can relate to that. I think, because that's what you do, you put on a mask. Are you crying on the inside right now? And I'm not saying that to be funny right now? All right? Why where are you all right now? What? What situation are you in that makes you feel like you're all right, I think once she's sort of like, start talking about stuff, and you start releasing some of the weight that you've been carrying all your life, the shame you've been carrying all your life, um, and you start to talk to him like I started to go into therapy, um and actually just starting to talk about it, and you don't, I know, not everyone can afford therapy, and I was very fortunate that was in the situation that could get that help. But even talking to a friend, talking to someone that cares about the moment you start talking about something, they help, it just feels like a problems halved, you know. And I feel like I started talking about it, I started understanding why I actually felt the way I did, started pinpointing back to my childhood and growing up of why it was the way I was. So now you connect it with your music, and it was like it was all of a sudden because I've been writing all this music that no one understood. My label didn't really understand. Management knew there was something going on, but where I wasn't and I was like no one would even ask me about relationships. No one would even because I was so like it was just never saying you brought up to me because I was very good at going into the room and knowing what you can talk to me about what you can't even without me saying it. And it was just like I tell you what, like, January probably was the hardest time in my life. It was like I felt like I think had been ripped raw. I felt like I still there with no skin in my body, and it was just like you feel like your whole world is falling apart when you actually try to start dealing with demons in your life, but actually you try and hold onto that hope that maybe your world has fallen apart so we could fall back together in the right way again. So so Leon, I mean, so what you're saying is if I spoke to you, I wouldn't hear they're real you. But if I heard your music that you wrote, that was the real you know. I feel like you do hear the real me well now, but I just feel like you maybe not your music was more of who you were than what you said to me. Or anyway, what does that say, Nate? What is it? He's gay? I want to marry him back after I'm reading text, he's perfectly happy, well, you know, and another piece of proof that music is is as real as it can get. And when you can find an artist that made me not be able to speak to you about exactly what's in their heart and on their mind, but they can sing it to you, it's better. That's why I felt. I felt like music was my medicine. Music actually was my therapy for so many years. It was my escape. It helped me escape as a child. Listen to music give me the strength to get through so much stuff in my life. And that's why I think musicians on cool is such an amazing thing that I can connect to because, like you said, the other night, music hills, but listening to music is the same. So for us it's it's great too. Sorry, it's not only for you. Bad news you gotta share so leon else. The single is the City Don't Care. It's available now. But this other single, there's an EP coming up, right, there is an EP coming out? Yes? Do we have a date on anyone in two months? There's a long time. So when the song comes out, I want you to come back. Have we come back at the ends the end of the month, I think the first week of May. I mean I was trying to get take us to Mexicovi here, but we'll come to me. That's what I seca. If we couldn't put the pressure on the tequila in Mexico again, you never see me again. We've had to keep it. Oh. Leon was dancing dancing down Sunset Boulevard, down Santa Monica, Bolivart. I nobody was dancing on people's dining tables. I'm that person. I can't help it. When I start to have a drink, I just think, stuff it. Let's just have fun yoo, as Drake says, you know, can I tell you a funny story? So we were at the game bar, not the abbey, but the next door the chapel or whatever the hell it is, and they had these polls up ready for the dancers to come in, and so I said, the other dancers, the guy dancers are gonna be here any minute now. And so Stephen Leen walks over with this guy and I went, all the dancers are here, And I looked at you and I said, so when you when you're gonna start dancing? And it's Steven said, this is Leon. I was telling you that, Leon know it? Oh, you're not you're not the dancer. We thought you're gonna start dancing, I'm gonna check yourself. But an hour later he was dancing on the table when we're putting dollar bills in his pants. He was the dancer. Said I would have a drink. I just want to have fun, and you do. And we did have such a fun, fun night. He's a fun guy and it wasn't we're making out to be much bigger a thing that was. But I definitely did fall to sleep on the pavement. Stop. My head was hanging out the uber car. Don't talk about it. Don't stop. I'm sore. If you're eating your bagel or whatever you're eating New York. But I've just got to say it was a night. I welcome in my bed and I had the iHeart Radio What's next Day? And I was on the carpet and I couldn't get my balance. It's okay, And I was trying to pull myself together so much. You've got to stop now. As you as your friend, I'm going to stop you now. But there's more Part two with Leon I was coming up in a couple of months. Thank you so much for coming. Thank you.

You can actually hear Leon Else's interview on the heart Radio app. Listen to our playback channels. Yeah. Hey, speaking of all things digital, we have new emojis in the wings. You're ready for the new emoji news. We have breaking emoji news your news. There is a group that actually regulates the standard set of emojis. They're called the Unicode Consortium if you've heard of them. They're meeting in June to discuss sixty nine new emojis, and the mock ups for all of them just came out. Some of the highlights from NBC News World Headquarters in New York. This is NBC Nightly News with Lester Holds sitting in for Lester hold Elvis Durant. Okay, it's a list of the lots of mythical creatures, by the way, including male and female zombies, nice mermaids, fairies, elves, wizards, vampires, and genies. Some new faces coming to the emoji world, including one with a shocked look and a brain exploding, an angry one with symbols that represent cursing covering the mouth good, a skeptical skeptical emoji, one with an eyebrow raised. And there's even emoji that's vomiting. That'd be the Great T emoji. That's I'm a favorite, that one vomiting almost every of the day. So it'd be great if emojis came with sound. Oh I bet that's next. So if you hit the guy with a raised eyebrow, the sound would be like who right? Or if you hit the emoji the Great T emoji where he's throwing up. Let's see new animals including dinostaurs, a hedgehog, and a cricket. Thank god they have a hedgehog. Final I've needed that one some new foods. I'm shocked they didn't have these. A sandwich, broccoli. I was looking for broccoli the other day, a pretzel, a steak, a coconut, a pie, and a cup with a straw and an orange heart. Because hearts and every single other color were enough, we have the orange heart. It's hard to make a rainbow. I've been trying to make a rainbow. You can't, after all, you can't there without the orange. There is a rainbow. There's a rainbow on there. You can if they're not getting rid of the eggplant, are they? I hope not? Makes you make it bigger. After these emojis are approved, they should be on your phone by the end of the summer. What's scary? So it might be inappropriate, but why aren't we gonna get a middle finger? There's already a middle finger. I'll send it to you right now. There's already a middle figure. Hold fingers up one. It's like some people send okay whatever. I can't stand that one check mark. All right, so let's get into our headlines. Get scary space. Everyone's flipping scary off on alright. Alright, he's got his he's got his little finger emoji. Uh and so deserving thanks. End of the headlines. What's going on that today? Okay, So British Prime Minister Teresa May says the attacker of yesterday's terror attack in London was British born and had once been investigated by m I five. The so called Islamic State is claiming credit for the attack. As you know by now, the suspect's weapons were a car and knife. He drove the car into pedestrians on Westminster Bridge and was shot and killed as he tried to storm the House of Parliament. Four people in northern Wisconsin were shot and killed yesterday. One of those people was a police officer. This happened in Wasaw, which is about ninety minutes outside of Green Bay. Police are saying it was a domestic dispute at a bank that escalated into shootings at three locations. Interesting. Or there's actually a British lawmaker who lost a brother in a terrorist bombing before he did everything he could yesterday to resuscitate a police officer that was fatally attacked outside Parliament. His name is Tobias Ellwood. He's a New York born British military veteran. And you've seen the photographs all over the all over online. He was photographed kneeling near the officer's body attempting to resuscitate him, and of course he did pass away. But they're calling him someone who tried his best to be a hero. So therefore he is. And all of our best, our hearts going out to all of our friends in London and all around the world. What a sad story. The United States is celebrating its first ever World Baseball Classic championship. Team USA shoutout Puerto Rico eight to nothing in the title game at Dodger Stadium. This is your hourly reminder to take a deep breath. Oh thank god, breathe last hour. He did not take it. Other one. There you go. And it turns out as people are getting engaged, diamonds are becoming less and less popular. Younger couples are thinking about saving money before getting married, so that means a traditional diamond ring, which can cost a lot of money, isn't as appealing as it used to be. So people still want really beautiful engagement rings, of course, so people are turning to other precious gems that cost a lot less than diamond like sapphires, rubies, emeralds, opals and amethysts.
