2:20
start the party. I'm ready
2:22
to party. The
2:24
Elvester ran after party. Oh,
2:31
the after party podcast. Let's
2:33
go. Line 19 is
2:35
David calling in from beautiful Destin,
2:37
Florida. Wow. Some of my
2:39
favorite sandy beaches in Destin, right?
2:41
Gorgeous. Yep. Lovely.
2:45
Good morning, guys. Why you on
2:47
the phone with us when you could be
2:49
on the beach with your toes in the sand?
2:51
I don't get it. Very
2:53
soon, Crab Island is coming.
2:55
White sand, blue water,
2:57
80 degrees. Oh, God.
3:00
Love it, David. Good for you.
3:02
Crab Island. Sounds like
3:04
where Scotty lives. Yeah. No,
3:06
Scotty. Scotty, you know Crab Island. Scotty,
3:10
it's a large boat party,
3:12
so yeah. I'm in, I'm in.
3:14
Hey, interesting question you asked us on the
3:16
text. Do you want to go ahead and
3:18
ask it again in the room? Because I
3:20
want to force this. I like this. I've
3:24
been listening to you guys for years upon
3:26
years. I won't say how long because
3:28
it'll age myself and probably age you. But
3:30
I hear people calling in and saying
3:32
how much you've got them through something or
3:35
they see you and they were like,
3:37
without you guys, I couldn't have gotten through
3:39
this. it weighs for
3:41
me I hear that I'm like man how much
3:43
does it weigh on them and on their
3:45
shoulders that people are putting so much
3:47
of their emotions into you guys like
3:49
how do you handle it and cope
3:51
it cope with it well I'll
3:53
get started but everyone has an opinion I'm
3:55
sure I tell you I love that
3:58
it is a great question I love those
4:00
calls our listeners because you know first
4:02
of all they're listening to us second of
4:04
all they're trusting us with very very
4:06
personal aspects of their lives and
4:08
they're looking to us for us to
4:10
give information or to console them or Here's
4:13
the thing I think of our listeners
4:15
as our friends and if a friend comes
4:17
to me and says hey, you know
4:19
what? I just want to say thank you.
4:21
You really got me through all those days
4:23
I was going to chemotherapy or you
4:25
got me through losing a parent or a best
4:27
friend and I want to thank you for
4:30
that that makes us feel Pretty cool. I don't
4:32
know. Do you guys have an answer for
4:34
David? I feel like that's what keeps us
4:36
going a lot of times because, you know,
4:38
these hours are not easy, you know, and
4:40
it's not always easy to come in every
4:42
day and be happy and, you know, get through
4:44
everything, whatever. But when somebody tells you that
4:46
you help them get through something, you know,
4:48
obviously you're not happy with what they went through,
4:50
but that's what gives you the motivation to
4:52
keep going, to know that you're there for
4:54
somebody, that you help somebody, that you will
4:57
buy their side for the entire time. It's
4:59
like a very special relationship. Absolutely,
5:02
I think it also goes both ways. It's a
5:04
two -way street because as much as our listeners
5:06
have said, we've helped them out, they've helped
5:08
us out through a lot of stuff too. We
5:10
have heavy stuff, we have dark stuff that
5:12
happens, but being able to come in here and
5:14
play around with each other and then get
5:16
positive feedback that somebody else maybe enjoyed it and
5:18
that helped them also helps us. So I
5:20
think it's awesome, not the sad things that happen
5:22
to them, but being able to do this. It's
5:25
great. What we do is we do so
5:27
many things. My favorite call actually, David,
5:29
is from someone who's saying, I'm on my
5:31
way to a funeral. I have to
5:33
bury my best friend. But you guys just
5:35
now talking about people that have
5:37
seven nipples that made me laugh Okay,
5:39
because we gotta keep in mind just because
5:41
you're just because you're sad about something
5:43
or you're afraid of something going on in
5:45
your life doesn't mean you can't detour
5:47
for a second and Escape that and I'm
5:50
hoping that you know 20 minutes or
5:52
an hour whatever time we have with a
5:54
listener every morning I hope we offer
5:56
that I hope so but also
5:58
keep in mind it is to
6:00
Gandhi's point it's really a two -way street because
6:02
we love coming in here and cracking
6:04
up with each other we're having a great
6:06
time and just to be able to
6:08
be a bunch of fools that talk about
6:10
rarely talk about anything all that important
6:12
it actually entertains people makes them feel better
6:14
it's pretty good we get paid to
6:16
do it too yeah absolutely without doubt and
6:18
that's exactly what my wife that is what
6:20
you guys are saying but when i hear
6:23
it for me i'd get that for you
6:25
guys and i'm like god i know much
6:27
pressure on you guys not make a complete
6:29
sense of what you all I
6:31
will tell you though, you know, during the
6:33
pandemic, you know, we had all these
6:35
people calling in from the emergency rooms that
6:37
were dealing with death every day and
6:39
truckers out on the road trying to get
6:41
supplies to the stores. And, you know,
6:43
they were going through these angst filled moments
6:46
and they depended on us to be
6:48
there for them. And there were a couple of days
6:50
where it got really heavy in here, especially talking to
6:52
people working in hospitals. but
6:54
it made us understand what was going
6:56
on in reality a lot better than if
6:58
we hadn't met them. And we shared
7:00
that with you, with our listeners. And you
7:02
got to see, you got to see
7:04
a glimpse into an emergency room. Yeah, what's
7:06
up, Nate? So when I was younger,
7:08
I wanted to be a doctor, right?
7:11
I wanted to help people the way
7:13
I was helped when I was younger. And
7:15
that obviously didn't happen. I
7:17
fell into this line of work and
7:19
that's, One of the things that I
7:21
really get out of this job is the fact
7:23
that we do help people, whether we realize it or
7:25
not. There's so many times where
7:27
somebody calls up and says that, I
7:29
mean, there was even a time where somebody said they, we
7:32
helped them to not commit
7:34
suicide, right? So I don't
7:36
know exactly what we
7:38
do from the listener's perspective
7:40
that makes us
7:43
such an integral part of their day and
7:45
the equivalent of being a doctor, but that's really
7:47
what I get out of my job. i
7:49
i i i i i i i i i i i i i mindless
7:51
conversation that that is just i i
7:53
i out there like you just said all
7:55
that the seven nipples i love it
7:58
i all
8:02
we do is tell fart jokes and then somebody
8:04
will call in and go you were with me when
8:06
I was with chemo and your fart jokes got
8:08
me through and then you're like this is why we
8:10
do it I mean, David, how dare you call
8:12
it mindless I I put my whole brain into these
8:14
things My entire
8:17
existence. She missed everything from her intellect into these.
8:19
But you know what? It's just, David, if
8:21
you have a friend who's having a lot of
8:23
problems, sometimes you don't always have the answer
8:25
for their problems. I know we don't. But just
8:27
being there for your friend, you know
8:29
how it is. And that's what we do. We're here
8:31
every day, five days a week. And I think
8:33
if we just show up, then we
8:35
just show up. That's all we have to do. I
8:37
do have one complaint. Every time you
8:39
guys talk about food and eating, I've got
8:42
to eat. I'm like, oh my gosh.
8:44
Holy, then I was just in New York
8:46
not long ago and ate at Joe's
8:48
Pizza and ate at Carmine's. And my friends
8:50
are there right now eating at Carmine's
8:52
at night, but my gosh, the food. Every
8:55
time you talk about it, I'm like, oh my gosh,
8:57
I'm hungry. I know. It's
9:00
so crazy because like on National Pancake Day, we'll
9:02
be talking about pancakes and then we find out everyone
9:04
had pancakes that day because we're all talking about it.
9:06
We don't get a cut of that though. feel like
9:08
we should get a cut or something. I hope Ozis,
9:10
they owe us. I love that question, David, and
9:12
having this conversation with you is awesome. And thanks for
9:14
being there for us. I appreciate it very much.
9:16
That's great. Well, thank you guys. And
9:18
I do love you guys. Like everybody says,
9:20
you know, you're one of my friends that
9:22
I listen to and I have your mindless
9:24
conversations and I yell at people that can't
9:26
get questions right. We
9:29
do too. Thanks for understanding
9:31
and being on our side on that. Thanks, David.
9:33
