1 00:00:01,160 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 1: Today's Daily Highlight from Elvis Duran in the Morning show. 2 00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:07,720 Speaker 2: Okay, Gandhi and I. 3 00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:10,080 Speaker 3: Were having dinner one night and she said, we have 4 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:12,559 Speaker 3: this friend who used to be high, high, high, high 5 00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:17,200 Speaker 3: up in the military. Yes, oh yeah, very powerful. General 6 00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:19,479 Speaker 3: general is way up there, right. 7 00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:22,800 Speaker 4: It was a master something. I'm gonna get it wrong, 8 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:25,279 Speaker 4: so I don't even want to try there. 9 00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:29,040 Speaker 3: The word general general is in his title, I think, so, okay, 10 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 3: Well he's up there. So we talked about how he 11 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:36,480 Speaker 3: is now. He's no longer in the military. Now, his 12 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 3: his biggest ambition every day is to go out and garden. 13 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:39,480 Speaker 2: Right. 14 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,199 Speaker 4: He likes he loves flowers, he likes horses, and he 15 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:44,240 Speaker 4: likes coaching kids. 16 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 2: He's a great dude. 17 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:49,960 Speaker 3: So the question is how much do you care about 18 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,519 Speaker 3: what someone used to do, So can you. 19 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 2: Tell the whole story? Yeah, okay, So he's married. 20 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 4: He's married. I was having a conversation with him and 21 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 4: his wife and I asked them how they met. It's 22 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 4: one of my favorite things to ask people. And he 23 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 4: was a coach at a CrossFit Jim and initially she 24 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 4: didn't want to date him because she said, I don't 25 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 4: want to date a CrossFit coach, and he said, do 26 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:14,400 Speaker 4: you have any idea what I used to be? Like, 27 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 4: I'm not just a CrossFit coach. I ascended all the 28 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 4: way to the top of the military, and I retired 29 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,399 Speaker 4: at a very young age because I started when I 30 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 4: was eighteen years old. I'm set for the rest of 31 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 4: my life as far as you know, like benefits and 32 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,200 Speaker 4: all these different things. But it didn't matter because that's 33 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 4: not what he was doing at the moment. You see 34 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,319 Speaker 4: people for what they're doing at the moment, but so 35 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 4: many people did all these other things before whatever they're 36 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 4: doing right now. So how much do we ever think 37 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 4: about that? I don't think. 38 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:39,479 Speaker 2: People do well. 39 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 3: So we brought it up, you know, selfishly talking about us. 40 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 3: My thing is one day when I'm not doing this, 41 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 3: yeah you know, I mean this is not nearly as 42 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 3: important as a general in the military, but yeah, you 43 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 3: know it's a thing, right, Yes, one day I'll just 44 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 3: be doing something relaxing and normal. 45 00:01:58,600 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 5: Right. 46 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 3: Will it matter what I did before then? Or is 47 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 3: it where I am then that matters? Is that what 48 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 3: the question is? 49 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean that's what we were talking about. You know. 50 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 4: I think that because I had we ended up having 51 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 4: this conversation with other people who were like, no, it's 52 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 4: a really big deal what somebody used to be. And 53 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 4: I said to that person, I understand. And maybe once 54 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 4: you get to know somebody you understand that that's more important. 55 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,639 Speaker 4: But at the moment, when you just meet someone, you're 56 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 4: not giving them a rundown of who you used to be. 57 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 4: You're giving them a definition of what you are right now. 58 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 4: And I think that's why it's also really important not 59 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 4: to define people by careers. But I think it's just 60 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 4: a wild thing that you go, especially you know, people 61 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 4: who are in these fields, like the military, police officers, firefighters, 62 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 4: they had this sort of like built in level of 63 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 4: respect for a long time, and if you go long enough, 64 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 4: you just expect that from the world. But the world's 65 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 4: not just going to give you that. They don't know that. 66 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, Like, if you were a heart surgeon at one 67 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: time saving lives, right and now you're retired and just 68 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 1: hanging out and gardening, and I meet you and you're like, yo, 69 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: what do you do? Well, you know, I spend the 70 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,080 Speaker 1: weekends gardening and I relax, and I didn't know, Oh, 71 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: you are a heart surgeon in the past. What would 72 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:03,639 Speaker 1: you go out with them. 73 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 2: Well, here's the thing. 74 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 3: You're still the same person, but you're you're assuming that 75 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 3: they still are as talented, learning and owning things and 76 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 3: whatever as they were when they did that professional but 77 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 3: now they're just gardening. So your level of respect should 78 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 3: remain the same. Lesson is a question. 79 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: I think it shoul remain the same the same. 80 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 4: Well, I think the absolutely you should respect people regardless. 81 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 4: I'm just saying, I think to people that don't know 82 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 4: all the things you used to do, you can't just 83 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 4: go into a situation expecting that you're going to get 84 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 4: a certain level of respect or admiration without people knowing 85 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 4: what's going on and them just assuming that you did 86 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 4: all these things. 87 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 6: They have no idea about it. 88 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 3: Hey, so when I have a listener on the phone, 89 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 3: I sometimes say, hey, what do you do? 90 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 2: Maybe I should now ask, well, hey. 91 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 3: What do you do and what did you used to do? 92 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 2: Explain your peak, give us your entire story? What a boot? 93 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know, it's it's such an interesting dance. 94 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 4: But again, when then we started talking about maybe happy ending, 95 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 4: because that was sort of the whole point of this play, 96 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 4: which was retired robots, and they didn't know what to 97 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 4: do with themselves when they were no longer in service. 98 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 4: They didn't know how to identify themselves. They didn't know 99 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 4: who they were because that's what they were their whole lives. 100 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 4: But you're so much more than just this one part 101 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 4: of your life. 102 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,479 Speaker 2: You're lots of parts of your life. What's scary was. 103 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 5: Up when you've had such a massively, highly decorated career 104 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,840 Speaker 5: and then you go to something else that's a lesser 105 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 5: decorated career. I feel like your you know, your former 106 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 5: career over kind of overshadows, so it becomes kind of 107 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 5: part of the current conversation. So you can't avoid that 108 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 5: you are Elvis Durant. Even if you're an ice cream 109 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 5: man somewhere in the future and you're serving ice cream 110 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 5: to people, you're still it's us to come up that 111 00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 5: you because you've had this massive career as Elvis. 112 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 2: It's a part of you, you know, Okay, Well, you 113 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 2: know me, I downplay that a little bit. 114 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 3: Okay, let's okay, but I can the President of the 115 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 3: United States, Okay, whether you voted for him or not. 116 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 3: The dude out of the office and done with office, 117 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 3: out of the White House is still the president or 118 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 3: he was he served as arguably one of the most 119 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 3: powerful men in the world. Right, So now he's you know, 120 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,720 Speaker 3: working on the scream truck selling ice cream. 121 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. So you look, you walk 122 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 2: up to get your cone, You're like, oh my god, 123 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,559 Speaker 2: what are you doing here? 124 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 3: And you show him or her depending on when that 125 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 3: that that level of respect that someone you had no 126 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 3: clue about in their past, you wouldn't, right, so you 127 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 3: never know someone serving your ice cream to you was 128 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 3: a general in the army or maybe or someone who 129 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 3: he actually served overseas in several theaters of war. 130 00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 2: What do you think, Froggy? 131 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 7: So, I think it always talk about when when people 132 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 7: when we leave this world, what is the footprint you 133 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 7: left behind? 134 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 2: What did you do? 135 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 7: But you don't know what you don't know about somebody, 136 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 7: So therefore you want to respect people, give them the 137 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 7: respect that they deserve without knowing what they've done. It 138 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 7: really doesn't change how you should treat somebody when you 139 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 7: don't know anything about them. I think we all start 140 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 7: at a level, like to say, you start at level five. 141 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 7: That level can get higher, the level could get lower 142 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 7: if they show you disrespect. However, I think it's key 143 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,039 Speaker 7: to respect people until you have a reason not to. 144 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,480 Speaker 3: Well, there you go, so now and you just start 145 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 3: working harder on being disrespected. 146 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,919 Speaker 1: Are well, if you're a jackass, I don't care what 147 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: you do for a. 148 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 3: Living, Well, okay, what if you're now a priest and 149 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 3: you're saving lives or whatever, and you can say, well, 150 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 3: I gotta tell you I used to be a jackass. 151 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 4: But it can't work that way too, Right if you 152 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 4: went to if you did something bad in your past, 153 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 4: you went to prison and you got out and you've 154 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 4: changed your life, do people still hold you to that? 155 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 4: You would hope not. 156 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 1: So it ends on what you did. 157 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 4: It matters where you are in the world at the moment. 158 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 2: Nate, have you thought about this? I'm thinking about it now. 159 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 6: There's so many different levels to this because, for instance, legacy, right, legacy. 160 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 6: I was out last night and went to this bar 161 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 6: called Terra Blues. Have you been there now? Kind of 162 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 6: a blues bar, and there's blues performers and all of 163 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 6: the walls were just covered with photographs of jazz musicians, 164 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 6: and it just got me to think that that is 165 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 6: a legacy to a certain part. This person is no 166 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 6: longer with us, but they're still being remembered, And how 167 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 6: will I be remembered one day?

It 287 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 4: wasn't about not respecting people because you don't know. 288 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 8: What they do. 289 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:40,200 Speaker 2: They bring it back to where you want to se 290 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 2: it was really just. 291 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:44,319 Speaker 4: About the evolution of a human being, and that the 292 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 4: past is important but you don't see it. The present 293 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,199 Speaker 4: is important. You don't see it. You're living in this 294 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,680 Speaker 4: moment right now, in the present, and that's very important, 295 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:53,959 Speaker 4: and it's important to focus on those things and look 296 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 4: at somebody for what they are and at some point, 297 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:57,439 Speaker 4: great you get to know more about them and you 298 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,120 Speaker 4: see the layers. But when you look at someone in 299 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,720 Speaker 4: this moment right now, what is there and how much 300 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,599 Speaker 4: are you willing to dig deeper? That was kind of 301 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 4: more where I was I was going with it. 302 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 2: That makes sense. Yeah, okay, But of course we should 303 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 2: all respect everybody regardless, well, well if we can, if 304 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,440 Speaker 2: they get this opportunity to respect them right until they 305 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 2: prove otherwise. 306 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 3: Right anyway, So as you've gotten too the day, think 307 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,320 Speaker 3: about that, think about all of the above. See someone 308 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,960 Speaker 3: walking on the street, actually look in the look at 309 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 3: them in the face, and start thinking about all the 310 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 3: great things that person may have brought to this world. 311 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 2: And you'll never know about them. We must assume that 312 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 2: about everyone. 313 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel like it's the same thing when someone's 314 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: having a bad day or you don't know if they're 315 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 1: having a bad day, if someone treats you like nasty 316 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 1: or like, you know, maybe says something they shouldn't have said. 317 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:45,199 Speaker 1: Sometimes I try to say to myself Okay, just think 318 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 1: about it. Maybe they had a bad day, maybe something 319 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 1: just happened. Maybe you don't know. You don't know where 320 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,320 Speaker 1: they're coming from, so give them the benefit of the doubt. 321 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 2: Kind of like the same I write them off immediately 322 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 2: d
