Don't answer the phone, Elvis Duran.

The Elvis Duran phone tap.

Every morning at 7.20, we give you a fresh phone tap.

We love playing crank calls.

Actually, you told us you loved them.

That's why they're back.

Got an email from Nicole Godfrey.

See, I think I have her on the phone. Good morning. Nicole, is that you? Yeah, hi. Good morning, guys. Rather than me reading out your email, what is it you want to do to your friend, Lauren? All right. Well, me and my friends, this is our first year getting a beach house down in Belmar, and I thought it would be a great idea to have someone pretend to be our realtor and tell her that our house burnt down. Right. Oh, no. That's horrible. Yeah. So you guys already put your deposit down on the house. Yeah. And you want the realtor to call and say, well, hey, thanks, but no thanks to the house burnt down. Yeah, yeah. All right. So why do you hate your friend, Lauren? Why do you want to do this to her?

No, I don't hate her.

I just think she's the most gullible out of all the girls at the house. And I think she'll really fall for it, and I can't wait to hear what she says. Here we go, scary. Calling up Lauren telling her, her beach house has burned to the ground. It's another phone tap.

Hello.

Lauren Gizzy, please.

Yes, sir.

Hi, this is Ray from the realty company. Okay, hi. Hi, you've rented a house down the show with us for this summer? Uh-huh. And I believe the address, I just want to make sure I can verify this. It's 213 by at least to get a living right that house burned down what yeah it's terrible so that just means we're screwed a house and not money um basically okay how much money did you put down

here well we paid the 700 dollar deposit and then we made our first payment. Right. We are all paid $500, so it was like $2,500 already. Yeah, well, that money's gone and you still owe us to balance, which is about $1,000. We still have to pay for it, regardless of the house there or not. Yep. All right, that's bullshit. Why?

Why?

Can you afford that money? Well, I can afford it. Are you working right now? Obviously, if we, uh, what, am I working right now? Yes. Why do you ask? I just wanted to make sure that you weren't some deadbeat kid out of college that wasn't going to pay her bill. Obviously, I wouldn't find a leaf for a house that I was running for the summer if I couldn't afford it.

I just kind of figured that you were like scraped. that wasn't going to pay her bill. Obviously, I once found a week for a house that I was running for the summer if I couldn't afford it.

I just kind of figured that you were like scraping your last pennies together to get this done.

No, I don't scrape my last pennies for anything.
