00:00:01
Speaker 1: Elvis Durrand Presents, Yeah, just the off air show is Scary. Jones and Greg Episode seventy nine off their show, I'm Scary, Greg t Bull hanging out? What do you want to go to? What? Because a podcast past worst the first hashtag works, the first counting down to New Year's Eve. Here hashtag works the first hundred episodes. We've got twenty one to go to become the number one podcast at I Heart Media, at our heart Radio. And if we're not, then I did then you know what the wed No, it's not all for not thus wasted a lot of hashtag. We will never starting. No, we will never do that. We're listen. We need to show the audience that we do care. There's been a lot of funk, a lot of a lot of backlash towards us. We're missing when you're all last all last week was terrible. We we had so much happening. We did a Monday show, We did a Monday show. I just think we all need to come clean with again. I hate apologizing, but I guess it's just us don't owe anybody and apology, Well, we kind of have to be honestly what that's what's going on we can be honest, but we don't have to be apologetic because it's not like we you know, we were kept from the show by our own you know, laziness, and we had stuff we had to do. No, we had stuff to do. Well, they maybe not both freak. He's not as important if we go back to less one. But Gret and I had stuff to Monday, we did the show You are Important ball Freaks, and then on Monday's podcast we specifically said Tuesday we would not be here, and Tuesday we couldn't be there because we really did have to go film a video web commercial for Sam's Club. Gotta get paid, got to get paid paid. You can't pay for this, got to get paid again? Paid for this? Okay, but you know but Sam's Club is a huge sponsor of Elvis. It really is. And that's where it comes from. You want you want to be honest. We want to be who had to get paid? That's what we would. Actually we were mandated to be there. We really were, and they with a big bag of money with a dollar sign on it. There wasnt signed. Had happened On the next day, Wednesday came Wednesday, Gregg t was having a post election hangover. Yeah, well that's it's just me. It wasn't me, it was the world. Well here's the thing, Okay, were a happy birthday. We under the three of us here. Understand that that we we are a national branded show. We get it, and that there's people listening to our podcast from all different states across the country. We understand all that. But it just felt like that was what was on everyone's mind, and we didn't want to talk politics, like there was no mood, not it's not what we do. So we just said, you know what, We're gonna step aside and just let the day's events play out and let Bull freaks ice cream cake melt. Don't you believe in counter programming? Okay, that was the big debate, and you and we didn't have a debate about it. Well, Ronnie, now here's the thing. What I went to say, Ball forget go hey man, I don't think we're gonna do a podcast today, and he and you said, why let's go do this, Right, it's the power of entertainment. You want to turn off, you want to turn off from what's happened in the real world. So you turn us on and then we'll turn you on and then everybody's having everybody you know what I'm saying, and that that was our dilemma. And then when I talked to Scary, I kind of felt like, you know, the way we come and do this podcast really hinges on the way the morning show finishes out or has a good day. Yeah, and how we're feeling. So if you're feeling with a left left like a flat tire, and that's not that's not trying to say that we were prony candidate. It was just the mood of the day was here in our New York City studios. Everything like like the election just took over everything. So we were just not we were mentally exhausted. I couldn't do a show. There was no way. And I'm not going to pretend to want to talk about other things because I was gonna want to go like head on into into the campaign and the election and I wasn't and I'm not going to do that bull for you could have come on and started talking about anything else other than the election. It was my birthday was forty years of excellence. I will say this though, was a conversation Share notes she was on her way down here that she had to turn share away. She turned the car around home. It's done right there on the freaking thru away. She's like, okay, I'll go home now. I mean, but because she got she understood. She just didn't she call you earlier scary and she said, you guys really doing the show today? Yeah, she said, she said, what's the mood? Because the mood around here on the highway in traffic is everybody's like right, But here's the thing we we understand again, Like I said that half the country was was throwing a party. They were excited the birthday, right, you guys brought in stinky cheese. There was thinking was like you know what I walked in here was like it was like I was walked into an Italian funeral, walked to a week everybody was really sad, and there was a lot of really good food to eat. But okay, in all fairness, not everybody on this morning show was sad. I will again say maybe half the morning show was a little bit upset, but there was half the morning show was exciting. Just like the funeral. I'm sure there's a couple of people there there are glad somebody died. Come on down and then there's Thursday. At to Thursday. What happened Thursday? Thursday, we had a meeting. Thursday, there was a huge union, more and more dollar signs. No, no, no, no, no no, Greg T and I are in a huge in a in a battle. No no, we're not in a battle. We are in a the lemma. Well not us. You know, we're all in this together. Everyone on the station right who touches the radio equipment is in a union. We're in the union. We all are. You are too bold, freak. I am your Every Every radio DJ that that is on the radio has has by no choice, they have to be a part of what's called the after slash SAG. SAG after review unions comes first because that's the actors. So they're more important than the Hollywood. People know, we're the same we're in the same union as the Hollywood. Pep sounds like after SAG, it just sounds like you have a medical condition. You know, I got a case. I got a case of my my after SAG and so we had a mandatory meeting. Every single disc jockey that works in this building had to report to one of our own offices and we all had to sit in this conference room and it was a two hour meeting. It was ugly. We had the bosses on one end of the table. Did you take the gloves off? It didn't get like that. The representatives kind of control. We're gonna do that in a couple of minutes with UFC talk. But so at the end of the day, we physically had no time. You couldn't do it. We can do the podcast, couldn't do it. There was no way, there was no time. But what about after the meeting? Where are you guys after the meeting and here two o'clock. Yeah, I'm not staying around this, okay, even if you haven't done a podcast in two days, like you got a drawer line in the sand. That's what I'm saying. Brings up a very good point. I'm playing the part of the listener. I'm the listener. I'm I'm the listener's advocation. So here's what happens to treat Grannie listener and talk to podcast at two o'clock. Tell me two o'clock turns into three o'clock by the time it's over. Then by the time I edited and put it up on the on the on the site, it's like three thirty and now I'm sitting a half hour to do that. But what the audience also doesn't know is that we get your four thirty in the morning, it has now become a twelve hour day. Yeah, we can't do that. We just physically can't do it. Next day. There's no way to do a twelve hour day. You didn't have to do a podcast. Okay, here's the next luck, Sunday morning. It's a quarter to eleven right now, so you can't compare three o'clock All free.

So this put sicular radio station runs promotion every year, is that correct? They do, And they have an outdoor mall. It's called St. John's Town Center and it was signed and they have a huge tree out there and it's like seventy degrees now and they had a beautiful ceremony. It's gotta be kind of weird. That's seven five degrees. You're lighting a Christmas tree. You know, it's even weirder after the tree lighting just at ten minute fireworks show combined Christmas trees with fireworks at the same time. But they do that there and it's a huge spectacle. It's awesome. Everybody came out and we had Santa Claus on stage sitting with someone from the that Santa had to be sweating because I've played Santa myself in like a Santa costume, and I mean sweating in like July, like some of the clubs in our area do, like Christmas in July. I mean you play Santa well, no, like you know, of course I'm not Santa. I wear the Santa suits sometimes, like know, like if a club hires me in July to be dude, come on, are you kidding me?

That's fair enough because you know Skier and I we do back and forth with whether or not I should be playing music or not right now.

No, not in a row. Not in a row. Am I the deciding vote? You will be the deciding vote? We know have ball freak feels well? No, No, I'm a music fan and a music lover, and I like music on a podcast.
