Mojo in the morning. Megan just said something interesting. I want you to say on the air right now about guys these days, because I think this is interesting. And I agree with you on this. I'm going to say right off the bat, I do agree with you. What's that?

So it's funny that we just joked about, do I have a date today?

Because I have been dating a lot more than I normally have recently. And one of the things that I have found disturbing feels like kind of a dramatic word. And I will acknowledge that, but kind of disturbing is the fact that so many guys are gambling right now. and not like gambling like oh i like to bet on football it's multiple apps constantly checking it talking about parlays i'm not like anti-gambling but it just seems like every guy is gambling a lot right now and i just want to be like uh with what money in this economy like what

what are we what are we doing guys it's it seems like and by the way this it ain't just guys that are grown guys is like we're seeing teenage boys that are gambling like crazy too and i i just

thought about it like if this was drinking or if this was whatever and this many guys were drinking

this regularly we would go this is a problem yeah and well so they're doing it enough that they're talking about it because that to me is the crazy part like that seems like a very random thing to talk to somebody that you maybe have never even gone out on a date with yet right

right so i met these guys at a bar and um we've been hanging out and it's like two kind of like friends and i really hit it off with one of them but they're constantly talking about oh i had this parlay is it gonna hit sorry i'm checking my phone because i'm i'm hoping that this hit or whatever

and i'm like every guy right now yeah it's just gambling like crazy yeah it is it's wild i i think that um i think i'm maybe the only guy i know that doesn't consistently gamble like i gamble on the nfl playoffs right or the n the nba playoffs or the nhl play like i'll gamble on stuff like that i know guys that every single week but i also think that they're all fantasy football guys too that that also spurs on the the winning and the the competitiveness which again i

don't have a problem if you're doing it casually it just seems like everybody's doing it all of

the time there's a lot of money to be made i will say like is it a problem if they're winning or is it just a problem that they're doing they don't all just win by the way there are a lot of women out there too i just want to say that that's the most surprising thing to me i absolutely agree

And I have a friend who gambles a lot. And I'm like, that's wild. You have a child on the way. And I don't think you can afford this. But I do agree with you on that one. But it just seems as if, A, when you say everybody's winning or there's a lot of money to be winning, that's what I hear people say when they're crying outside of a casino. Casino's can be fun, but not everybody's walking out. The house always wins. You know what I mean? Got a problem.

Call 1-800-GAMBLER. 844-MOJO-LIVE, 844-665-6548 is our telephone number. I would love to hear the perspective from the gamblers, but I'd also love to hear the people that are maybe dating a gambler and like to know, like, do you know all the gambling that they're doing?

See, to me, it's not. I mean, it is about the money that they're spending, but it's also about this thing that they constantly feel the need to check. It's addictive. If I'm spending time with you and you're constantly picking up your phone to check your parlay, I'm probably going to get a little annoyed.

See, that's the thing, though. When you have these parlays, and for those who don't know, if you do a single bet, that's a single bet. A parlay is when you have multiple bets that either all need to hit in order for you to win, or the reason why you could be checking your phone is because you can cash out early. So if I got a 14-leg parlay and seven of my games are happening now and they all hit, Well, I can cash out early and not worry about the other seven.

You were talking about this the other day with the parlays and how you got like every single one except for the last one or something and you wish you would have cashed out. That's how they get talking about.

I will say, obviously, I've never had a period and I'll never birth a child. It cannot compare to having a 14-leg parlay and you missed by one.

I don't know what hurts more. 844 Mojo Live to tell him that he's wrong?

No, no. 1-800-GAMBLER. Right. Can I tell you where it becomes crazy? And there are different perspectives on this, but where it becomes crazy is when your gambling goes from gambling on NFL football to like my son, Joe, doing table tennis and he's, and he's gambling on ping pong two in the morning. Brielle, what's up? It's Mojo in the morning. Hey, hi Brielle. Hi, what's going on? You agree with Megan? Every guy's gambling.

not every guy but most now are yeah yeah is your guy gambling yeah my husband gambles i do too okay and is your husband a winner or a loser it's a little bit of both but uh he's been winning a

lot recently does he ever gamble or you ever gamble enough that you guys got to worry about the rent check oh no okay so how much money are we talking about how much gambling are we doing

well not too bad but over the last like he showed me so you can see a portion where you're like your net loss and stuff so he doesn't usually put money on he wins the free money right okay but

so that counts in the net loss okay and how much are we talking about like 50,000

Oh, my God. Oh, my God. This is the red flag. Oh, my goodness. It is not a red flag.

Babs. By the way, I do have to let you guys know that you understand the whole tax implications, too, right?

Yeah, he's never won an amount that needs to be taxed.

Yeah, but does it even help you in your taxes? I don't think so, does it? Even if you lost $50,000?

No.

Yeah, see, that's the problem with this whole thing. What's up, Mia? How you doing?

Hi, how are you?

Good, Mia. It's not just the guys gambling, huh?

No, I go online. I gamble online. I play the slots and roulette live.

Okay.

But the jackpot is more online than it is at the casino.

Really? Megan, see, here we are thinking it's just guys. We may be the only ones.

No, I'm not saying.

Yeah.

Like, on the slot machines, like, the jackpot is much, much larger than it is at the casino. So, like, I won probably, like, last year, I won, like, the jackpot, like, $4,500, $3,500. Okay. And that was one slot machine. One slot. That is amazing. And then roulette.

Yeah.

And then I play roulette live. So, you have a live dealer online.

And how much have you won with that?

um over like a thousand dollars and one yeah you know because i play different numbers here's my

question you won forty five hundred dollars in the slots did you put that all into an account

or did you gamble it all away and still use it no no i i withdraw it and then i go play again

like another hundred okay there you go all right see that's smart yeah and i'm not saying that's

a smart way to do it women aren't doing it i just think guys are doing it at a much higher rate

Oh, yeah. Juliana says this is what keeps her. and her boyfriend together they do a lot of sports betting together is that right yes um

actually i never watch sports and i've been dating him for a year and a half and when i started dating him we started betting but i never got into it and then once we started getting into it we bet every football game and every basketball game pretty much but we make it like a fun thing together so we bet like low money but we like we make it an event like we watch the games together and, like, we watch our bets. Isn't this wonderful? It's a fun thing for us. No, why not just, like, bet kisses? Why don't we have to bet dollars? Like, I lose a lot of money, but, like, it's worth it for the experience for us.

It keeps the relationship together. You guys will both be there together when you're homeless out of the streets. You'll be able to. Exactly. I like it. Adam wants to tell us a story about his friend. This is sad. What's going on, Adam? Hey, don't say the game. Hey, what's going on? Don't say the actual app, though, okay? What's going on?

Okay, no app calling. Yeah, no, a buddy of mine, man, we're roofers, and he literally makes more than I do, and it's at least twice a week he's asking to loan money on FanDuel, calling me on FanDuel. We just said, don't say it. It's going to hit. And then always calls me the next morning, like, hey, but I can't give you that money back. We missed my one leg.

Well, shout out to FanDuel for making Adam's bank account go down because he's got to lend money to his friend that's always gambling. That's interesting that the guy that is actually making more money than you is asking you for money.

Yes. He's a good friend of mine. He's a good guy, but he definitely needs to be off his gambling. What about you?

You haven't taken into it? You haven't gotten

into it? Hey, I'm not going to lie, Modo. He's gotten me a couple times. You know, calling me, telling me he has that for sure bet. Just throw 100 on it. Man. Not so for sure. Always bites me. By the way, man, first time, long time. Rufus on the phone.

There you go. I, by the way, I should bet on every call we should do that, which calls maybe a first time, long time. Justin, what's going on? Hi. What's going on? Nothing much, buddy. We're talking about this. Are any people playing Keno anymore? Are any people playing?

My dad. My dad wins so big on Keno.

Anybody doing the Michigan lottery anymore? What's going on?

Yeah, I just won $73 on Keno the other day, but I was calling about the MGM. I used to have a date night with my girl. I'd come home from Speedway with an MGM gift card, and our sports betting, gambling got so bad, we stopped paying bills, and we looked on our online betting, and it said we had played through like $250,000. Bruh! Yeah, man, it was pretty far. Oops, my bad.

Yeah. No, I didn't. You didn't get through with it. That was good. I like that. Yeah. So, Justin, you know, it's interesting. Megan says that most of the guys that she's dating going on dates with, they will pull out their phones in the middle of dates and start betting in the middle of a date. What is what is going on with these guys? It's like the addiction. You know, you wouldn't you wouldn't Zen in the middle of a date, would you?

No, all my friends are broke from this gambling crap, man. Every single one of them are, like, going through every dollar they, like, like they have to sports bet or to just gamble. Like, I'll just watch them play on their phone, and they'll just be spinning, spinning on the slots until, you know, they're broke, and then they'll get so mad and just end up getting up and going home or going back to, you know, get a gift card because the gift cards are pretty good. You get an extra $10. When you spend like $50, you get a $10, I don't know, $10 bonus. Yeah, free play, like a free play. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Well, thank you for the call, buddy. I appreciate it. Appreciate you. Yeah. Yeah. Let's do this. Let's do bets on all of us. Like, let's have, like, parlays. My parlay today is going to be that I'm going to hang up on a caller, that Shannon is going to do a dirty story about Diddy. Pretty good one. That Megan is going to say the words or the phrase, you're so annoying or that's so annoying. And Kev's going to say, yeah, yeah. What's my over-under? Over-under on this one? Well, the whole parlay, if it pays together, that's just a normal day here on this show.
