1
00:00:01,240 --> 00:00:04,840
Speaker 1: Today's Daily Highlight from Elvis Duran in the Morning Show.

2
00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:12,119
Speaker 2: All right, okay, look, hamsters, goldfish. You know, for some reason,

3
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:14,320
Speaker 2: they don't get the same respect as dogs and cats

4
00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:17,560
Speaker 2: when it comes to being our pets. Right, that is bad.

5
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 2: We should respect them just as much. They are God's creatures.

6
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:23,239
Speaker 2: They are cuddly, fun friends. We should take care of them.

7
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 2: But sometimes, you know, sometimes things fall through the cracks,

8
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 2: including hamsters. I'm sure people have lost their hamsters. Isn't

9
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,519
Speaker 2: how your hamster died? Oh, it's now time for how

10
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:36,559
Speaker 2: did your hamster die? I don't think this is a

11
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:42,240
Speaker 2: great thing to do. This is not good music has

12
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,960
Speaker 2: Oh we can play the hamster dance. Oh, let's not

13
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 2: do that, all right. So we were talking about Gandhi's hamster. Yeah, Squeaky,

14
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 2: and it's it's evil demise.

15
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 3: Yes. So I was playing in my dad's office and

16
00:00:58,120 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 3: I had the hamster out, and Squeaky was running around

17
00:00:59,920 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 3: on his desk and I kept putting my arm up

18
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 3: at the edge so Squeaky would not run off the edge.

19
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 3: And my dad looked at me and said, and I

20
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:10,479
Speaker 3: will never forget it. Those things have instincts. It's not

21
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:13,039
Speaker 3: going to run off the edge. So I moved my

22
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 3: little nine year old arm and Squeaky went right off

23
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 3: the edge and splated on the ground. I will never

24
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 3: forget the sound.

25
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 4: Nothing.

26
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 3: And my dad looked at me and goes, oh no.

27
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 3: And I picked Squeaky up. She appeared to be okay.

28
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 3: Took her back to her cage, thought she needed some rust,

29
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 3: put her in there. In the morning, there was no

30
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 3: more Squeaky.

31
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 5: Oh no, Squeaky.

32
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 2: So you need you need to be careful with these

33
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 2: these these creatures, I mean they need they need tender,

34
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 2: loving care.

35
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 4: Absolutely. I well, I went away on vacation.

36
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 2: My friend Travis was supposed to feed my two hamsters,

37
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 2: and we got back. He had forgotten to feed them,

38
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 2: and I was We went in and we found them

39
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 2: and they had passed away. I loved them so much.

40
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 2: The thing is, is one ate a part of the

41
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 2: other one, and that one ate a part of the

42
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 2: other one. So they actually were trying to eat each other.

43
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 4: The wow.

44
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 5: I wonder if they had a conversation about that before

45
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 5: it happened. Hey, you eat me, I meant you.

46
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 4: I don't think so.

47
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 3: I'm just I'm telling you. I have never heard of

48
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 3: a hamster meeting a natural end.

49
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:12,079
Speaker 6: No, like never.

50
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 4: Priscilla online nineteen. Let's see if I'm get her, can

51
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 4: you fill her up? Hey, Priscilla, Hi, good morning, Well,

52
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:21,800
Speaker 4: good morning. So it was hot outside.

53
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: I mean it was summertime, right, Yes, it was the

54
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: best part of this story is that I bought this

55
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 1: hamster for a classmate whose hamster just passed away, and

56
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 1: he loved his hamster so much, so I went and

57
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,640
Speaker 1: bought this hamster, hung out with it for like a

58
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: day with the intentions of giving it.

59
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 5: As a gift.

60
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:45,079
Speaker 1: And it was really hot out, and I put the hamster.

61
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 5: By the ac because I thought it needed to cool off,

62
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 5: and I came back to check on it, and the

63
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 5: hamster was dead.

64
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 2: You know what, we should all be ashamed of ourselves.

65
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 2: Me included me too, Gandhi's dad absolutely all right, Well,

66
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 2: so did you replace this hamster or did you decide

67
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 2: if hamsters aren't for me?

68
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:08,359
Speaker 6: Nope, I went back and got another one.

69
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 1: I never told him that story. And then it turns out,

70
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: like less than a week later, he also killed that

71
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 1: hamster by mistake.

72
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 4: So I give anybody that.

73
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:21,519
Speaker 6: It was really hot out.

74
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 4: You're running a kill house for hamster.

75
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 6: Seriously, I was in fifth grade.

76
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 5: I didn't know any better.

77
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 6: I didn't I know, I know.

78
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:31,919
Speaker 2: But maybe we should have hamsters in fifth grade. I

79
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 2: don't know, just asking you solution.

80
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 3: No more hamsters. We cannot We cannot take care of

81
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 3: them the way they need to.

82
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 7: Be taken care of.

83
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 2: All right, Priscilla, thank you. One more call from Dawn

84
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 2: because this is depressing me. I'm sad. We thought that

89
00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 4: isn't good.

90
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 7: So my sister and I were out. We come home

91
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 7: and our hamster used to love to run on one

92
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 7: of those little hamster wheels. And one day we came

93
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 7: home and we found Snowball underneath the hamster wheel and

94
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 7: he had died.

95
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 4: Oh he got stuck under the wheel, Snowball, he.

96
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 7: Got stuck under the wheel, Snowball.

97
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 4: Can we just ee racist entiugh conversation. I'm not liking

98
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 4: this at all.

99
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 3: This is about owning a hamster, you know? Okay, Well,

100
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 3: ways they could die.

101
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,039
Speaker 4: Now we know what's the lesson learned here, then what

102
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 4: is the lesson learned?

103
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 6: The lesson is, I mean, death happens, right, so for seriously,

104
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,159
Speaker 6: for some kids, I guess the lesson it's easier to

105
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,600
Speaker 6: say goodbye to a hamster than a family member, like.

106
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 4: Nazis. You're easing them into loss.

107
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 6: Yes, because you know how exactly you Back in the day,

108
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 6: our forefathers had animals, and that's how kids learned about death.

109
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 4: The baby boat didn't make it. You know what. You know,

110
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:03,599
Speaker 4: little Billy, one day Grandpa will leave us wheel as well.

111
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 4: So let's keep an eye on the hamsters. Maybe they'll

112
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 4: teach it. Would we started off with your pet rock,

113
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 4: and then your hamster, and then grandma.

114
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 2: By the way, my mom and dad were famous for

115
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 2: replacing cats saying say, no, this is kitty. They change

116
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 2: color when they get older. I mean no, they don't,

117
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 2: Yes they do, Little Elvis, I mean, mom, I'm twenty

118
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 2: years old.

119
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,040
Speaker 4: I know the difference. My goodness, don thanks for your call.

120
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 4: I appreciate it. Oh my god, have a great day.

121
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:32,840
Speaker 4: Will see that.

122
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 5: With a teddy with a monkey, Spencer had stinky monkey

123
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 5: was like his little stuff monkey, and we kept losing

124
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,479
Speaker 5: this monkey everywhere, So I would order a new one,

125
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,239
Speaker 5: but never looked the same because the old one was old, battered,

126
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,600
Speaker 5: And I would have it pretend it rang the doorbell

127
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 5: and it was sitting in the front of the house,

128
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 5: and I'd say he went and got his hair done

129
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 5: and he got washing and it worked for a couple

130
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 5: of years.

131
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 4: They can see through that.

132
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 2: BS. Absolutely, we got to move on. This is just

133
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 2: too sad, scary.

134
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 8: Well, I think it was onto something because when I

135
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 8: was seven years old, Jonathan down the block had a

136
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,040
Speaker 8: gerbil and he had a ferret.

137
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 4: He had both of it, he had all the all

138
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 4: the above.

139
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,039
Speaker 8: The gerbil got out of the tank, ran across the porch,

140
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 8: but the porch is on the third floor, and it

141
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 8: ran through the crack and it fell on its head

142
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 8: and it had head trauma. And I had to learn

143
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 8: the hard way. But this is life versus death. So honestly,

144
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:26,720
Speaker 8: I think, well, I mean the way you're talking about.

145
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 2: Death, we're talking about people who don't know how to

146
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 2: take care of their pets, and we're saying this is

147
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:32,159
Speaker 2: a good thing.

148
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,479
Speaker 4: There's nothing good about any of this. I know better

149
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 4: than have sacrifice a gerbil.

150
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 2: Than you sacrifice anything no sacrifice anything scary.

151
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:43,800
Speaker 4: That was scary. They said that we don't agree with him.

152
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 4: I will tell you.

153
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 2: We used to have a pool table and the pool

154
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 2: table was a huge aquarium and a friend of mine

155
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 2: hit a pool bowl off of the pool table into

156
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,040
Speaker 2: the aquarium. The whole thing exploded. It was fish.

157
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 4: Flopping or whatever. And I'm trying to everything I can

158
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 4: do to.

159
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 2: Get these fish and save them. We got to be

160
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 2: more careful.
