Live Mojo

Alrighty, ready?

You're listening to Mojo in the Morning

You're a doo-doo hat Here we go, go, go.

Here we go, go, go. It's showtime!

Welcome to the Mojo in the Morning Show. It is so nice to have you guys here with us today. Thank you for choosing this as your way to start the morning. I think you're kind of crazy, but that's okay. We love you for that.

Wait a second. No.

Well, you know what? To me, I'd be in bed right now. I'd still be in bed, although maybe have the radio on in the background. Who knows? Is that an option? Yeah. You know what? Not for you. Oh. But for everybody else. We need you. Good morning. How was everybody's weekend? Everybody have a good one, hopefully? It was a great weekend. Yeah. It had great moments for me, I'll say that. Okay. All right, we're going to talk about them all this morning. We're going to get through all that. The good, the bad, the ugly. That's what we call this radio show. And we got Second Date Update coming up this morning. Here's something for you. Can a guy just be too nice and too sweet? It's another edition of Nice Guys Finish the Last when it comes to the Second Date Update today. Wait till you hear this poor bastard story. And then later this morning, we have a concert announcement to go along with all the concert tickets that we're giving away. They call her an icon, and she's announcing a concert today.

be nice be nice all right why'd you laugh when you said that i didn't i wasn't laughing i i got tickled i got tickled but uh we're gonna get into that uh coming up that will be at i think eight o'clock before that though prizes are good uh we got more kendrick and sizza tickets um we've got tickets to go to uh see justin timberlake let's go and then uh tate mccray tickets tate mccray sold out tickets so we've got a lot of stuff good morning it's mojo in the morning you know it's funny uh shannon we're going to uh start with your topic here next and uh talk about this but i'm hearing more and more people that have been uh hot sauna in lately and it's like a thing i guess now i guess it's they somebody must have come up with this whole thing that sweating out but all the bad stuff is good for you.

The Nordics do it.

Is that what it is? Really?

It is really good for you. Where are Nordics from? Like Sweden, Denmark, like all of those countries have been doing it for a really, really, really long time. I feel like it's just catching up in America, and because of it, everything's so expensive now. I tried to buy one of those individual saunas for my apartment. I was like, oh. And then they have sauna blankets now, and they have saunas for your garages.

It's like very popular now. Wes really wants one for the house. Remember? I talked about this. And I was like, you know, maybe you should just get a membership at a gym that has a sauna. So that's what he did.

I don't know if I can do it at a, I can't sauna, because it reminds me of, my dad used to take me to this health club that was by our house. It was not like a Planet Fitness or a Lifetime Fitness. It wasn't like a name brand guy. It was one of the ones where the old men with shriveling balls used to go to.

Oh, yeah.

It was like a lot of Polish guys that grew up in my south side Chicago neighborhood. So it was a lot of literally Polacks hanging out in hot tubs and saunas. Was it just a bathhouse? It was kind of. Honestly, I think it was. Megan, I think my dad took me to a brothel. But all I remember, it's the first time I ever saw a man's penis that was not mine or my father's.

They did it naked?

We went, we would go, my dad would take us there, and then I would go with him. I was a baby of the family, and sometimes he didn't have child care. He would bring me into the sauna for a little bit, and I would walk in there, and I would go through the steam, and I'd see, like, a man named Boris sitting with it, like, on his towel with his privates just all over the place. It looked like an octopus. It was crazy.

Oh, God. And they always have those, like, brimmed hats on.

Yes. A hat in a sauna is crazy. Yeah.

No. Okay. Well, so Wes belongs to a gym that does have a sauna and threw me on his membership. And now I am obsessed with going to the sauna, to Megan's point, because it is very good for you to, like, detox and stuff. But also, it is so damn cold that I, like, really look forward to, it's like the treat at the end of my workout that I get to go into the sauna. And so the sauna at this place is, it's a dry sauna. So you walk in and it's pretty big and it has like two, I don't even know, two levels of like wood stairs, it looks like, that you sit on. Yeah. Okay. So there are two different levels that you can sit on. But if somebody is sitting on the top stair and you sit on the bottom stair, you're basically sitting at like their feet, but you're in front of them. right if this makes sense so i'm trying to get you to visualize this i got the visual this is good okay okay so i go into the sauna over the weekend and i swear people some people do not understand the concept of the personal space bubble because the sauna has been packed for the past couple of days i think because it's so dang cold outside and everybody has the same idea of getting getting in there but i i go in there it's pretty packed i whatever i'm i'm dead set on doing this so i sit in front of somebody on the bottom row of like the step right and I'm kind of like leaned over I'm on Instagram doing whatever and I am sweating I can feel myself sweating but after about five minutes in there I feel something like pouring on my back and what had happened or what was happening was Boris on the step above me had leaned over and he had a towel over his head and all of the sweat from his body was dripping onto the back of my head and my back. You know, you know, you are aware that you are sweating that profusely and that that is the case and that you are doing it on the little girl that's sitting down in front of you.

Oh my God.

You guys, it was so disgusting.

Why would you let anybody get behind? Are they naked?

No, no, no. Oh, God, nobody's naked. It's totally co-ed.

They got, like, swim trunks on or, okay. Yes.

But, like, you, he was already there when I came in. But most normal people just sit up straight. So you're sweating on yourself. Like, there is plenty of room for you to sit and sweat and for me to sit and sweat and for us to not touch each other at all. But the fact that he leaned over so far.

And he was raining on you.

It was raining. I mean, I got up, I thought I was going to vomit. It was so gross.

I could never. First off, I think you got to have space, don't you? Don't you have to have like some kind of like.

I've never had this issue before.

But listen, I don't believe in physical violence, except in this scenario. It was nasty. And if you intentionally sit there and let your sweat drip onto me while we're stationary, you know I'm physically in front of you, you deserve to get hit.

There are a lot of things that gross me out, but someone else's sweat on me, it might be top three. It is top three.

Bodily fluids on another person. You do not want that.

No.

844-MOJO-LIVE, 844-665-6548. We've talked before about, you know, gym etiquette and things like that. This, to me, is like hardcore gym etiquette.

Boris didn't care.

No, he didn't care. They have the JCC by my house, okay? So I used to, so I don't know if I was the only Catholic that belonged to the Jewish Community Center, but I did. I actually had a membership at the Jewish Community Center, and they had a pool. You did too, man?

Yeah, the JCC was very big in Sylvania. There was no YMCA. There was only a JCC.

Oh, it's very nice. But I found, and I don't know, maybe everybody's just friendlier or something, the JCC. I found people had a hard time with, like, space. I used to, believe it or not, walk the track there and play basketball, and you'd walk the track, and there'd be a lady literally right at my ass the entire time, like I'm having a fast walk away from her. It was craziness. I think that's just old people in general, though. Oh, yeah.

Boris and Barbara. We'll call that lady Barbara. Yeah. Our gym friends.

Do you ever go to the airport, and you ride the escalator thing, and you just want to stand there because you're lazy, and you're in the standing area, and a person's behind you getting pissed at you because you're not moving there's like two lanes like there's one

lane for walking one yeah so you stand on the right and you walk on the left listen i've been on your side this whole time mojo there shouldn't be a standing lane on one of those things i know it exists it shouldn't exist that should be for walkers only my legs are tired from sitting on a

plane or you know being up being there for such a long time um by the way uh somebody says that this person was intentionally sweating on you. A texter here, 734, says that they were intentionally sweating. It was like a fetish thing? It could be. It could be, yeah. I don't know. 844-MOJO-LIVE, 844-665-6548. This whole sauna thing doesn't seem right if you're sweating on people. What's up, Alex? Hi. Welcome to the Mojo in the Morning Show. What's going on?

First time caller. First time caller. All right. So I'm not going to mention it, but, you know, we were talking about the lifetimes and all the saunas. I used to go to one of the lifetimes here notoriously early in the morning. There was always this one old guy, same guy every morning, 5.30. You walk into the locker room, the guy's locker room, and he's got his leg up on the sink, and he's blow-drying his private parts.

Okay, so I saw a woman blow-drying her bush a couple of months ago as well, and I could not look away. Like, I've never seen someone do that before.

How close do you get to your actual privates with that? Was he very close? Because that would burn you.

I didn't have some contact with you the whole time, too, so it's very awkward.

I would have a hard time, Alex, if I was walking by and a piece of sweat got around me, thinking that it came from his privates. Yeah. It just doesn't seem right. All right. Well, get in the sauna. It's good for you. Supposedly, it's healthy for you, okay?

Turkish baths. Turkish baths.

Turkish bath. There you go. By the way, does anybody know if those Turkish baths are anywhere around here at all? Because somebody told me that those things are...

There's the Schvitz in Detroit, but I don't know if that would be technically considered a Turkish bath.

Is that a club? Like a Schvitz club?

Yeah, it's like a health club.

Really?

It's like a big... I know they have a sauna in there.

It's got to... Is that like in Hamtramck or something like that?

I think it is the only... So it's historic. I think it's the only bathhouse, like, true bathhouse left in the city of Detroit.

I'm telling.

For real. It's supposed to be cool.

I mean, I'm sure it's very nice. It's historic. It's probably great. But whenever you call anything a bathhouse, I'm thinking something bad's going on. I know. Yeah, I know. Thanks, Lana.

It just doesn't seem right. But all right, Mojo in the Morning.

How smart are you? It's Mojo in the Morning's back in the day. We have to go back in 10. Where we give you a bunch of events, and you tell us what year it happened.

All right. Thank you.

All right. Have a great day. What do you do for a living? Let me guess. Let me guess real quick. You're a telephone operator.

No.

You are a first grade school teacher.

Oh, God, no.

Oh, then you're an entertainer. No. Dollar store cashier.

No. Geez. Nothing wrong with that.

Well, hold on. Any other guesses? Shannon?

You are the owner of a dance school for kids. Nope, I wish.

Yoga instructor, she's very mellow. Megan, what are your thoughts?

I think you work on the line. No.

What do you do?

I do purchasing and marketing for a glass company. Oh, okay.

That was my next one. Sounds exciting. Well, hang on. We're going to get some information from you, and we're going to get you a prize, okay?

I appreciate it.

Thank you, guys. Thank you. Thanks for listening. We appreciate you. You could talk to her all day.

Kendrick Lamar and SZA tickets. We're going to give those away right now. Text MUSTARD to 95500. Did you guys, by the way, see the Kendrick Lamar halftime performance little promo that they ran during the Eagles game, Eagles-Washington Commanders game? It was pretty cool. Yeah, they ran like a little promo for it. You can actually see it. I think it's on Twitter. MUSTARD is the word, 95500, for your chance to see Super Bowl halftime artist Kendrick Lamar and SZA performing on June the 10th when they come to Ford Field. Mojo in the Morning's Dirty on the 30. Shannon, with what's trending in the Dirty on the 30, I'm not going to lie to you guys. I'm so happy that I saw the Philadelphia Eagles win yesterday and the Kansas City Chiefs win yesterday because now I don't have to watch the Super Bowl. Two of my least favorite teams are in the Super Bowl. I'll still watch probably for the commercials, But could anybody tell me if there's a person in Detroit or Ohio that cares about the Super Bowl?

I mean, and it's like, again, the Eagles and the Chiefs, oh, God. I know. The Eagles running back. I literally have the worst lineup. Second time in three years. Fifth time, excuse me, in franchise history. And then last night, the Chiefs beat the Bills, 32 to 29, sending them to their seventh Super Bowl. I think their fifth Super Bowl since 2020, if I'm right on that.

about the Eagles winning is they destroyed their city afterwards. Did you see that at all, the video? No. They are nuts. Eagles fans, Philadelphia sports fans are just, they're crazy people. Like, you know what I mean? They win a Super Bowl. The world's going to end in Philadelphia. You might as well just put money on the fact that if you live in Philadelphia, you're going to be looking for a new place.

Well, going back to the Chiefs-Bills game, yes, Taylor was there, decked out head-to-toe in Louis Vuitton with her family to cheer on Travis Kelsey. So it could be historic if Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs rally for a historic third consecutive Super Bowl win. What was she wearing? What was she wearing?

She looked so good when she went to games and she would buy like small business like clothing items that were all Chiefs like gear. And now she looks the last game she went to. I liked the outfit. This one.

Kevin, are we rooting for three?

I'm going to say I'm going to take the opposite perspective from each of you all. I'm excited for this. I think we get into the habit of, here we go again, here we go again. I think Brandon Graham, who's a Michigan alum, who's from the city of Detroit, I hope he wins. His father's a listener of the show. Great guy. Zach, you actually bowed with him at a PR event. But I don't think history comes around like this. The last three P was when Kobe and Shaq did it in 2000 in any sport. So I think there's history here. I think we should appreciate what we're looking at, the greatness that's here. Wish it was us. But if you look at the logo, and we all know the Super Bowl logo always tells you who's going to win. The logo is red and green. So we probably should have expected this before the season even started.

Roger freaking Goodell. That's crazy. It is. It's crazy. All right. An update on this story about Billy Ray Cyrus. His son, Trace, is now saying that things are getting even worse with his dad, including some threats of legal action now. After his open and very heartfelt letter that I read to you on Friday expressing concern for his father's health based on his performance at President Donald Trump's inauguration and obviously a lot of things happening behind the scenes that we don't know about, Trace had posted an update on his dad's alleged reaction to what he wrote. he began dad my message was beyond loving I could have been extremely honest about a lot more but I don't want to put your business out there like that but for you to threaten me with the legal action for wanting you to get help is a disgrace he threatened legal action over that post just mind-boggling to me but Trace added you should be ashamed of yourself I will always love you but I no longer respect you as a man everyone close to you is terrified to tell you how they really feel i'm not get help no comment from miley on any of this yet uh people are kind of

noticing her silence with it she commented for a long time and let it go a long time ago

the first round of performers for the upcoming grammy awards include billy eilish chapel roan shakira charlie xdx and sabrina carpenter of all of the performers so far charlie xdx has the most nominations with eight billy's got seven sabrina and tapp will have six each the grammys are this sunday by the way eight o'clock live from crypto.com arena i know all this stuff just like creeps up on

really hard not to judge unique baby names i know when i named smith

Smith people were like what the heck you named your son a last name for a first name I get it this one is very special a Philadelphia woman has gone viral this morning after naming her son after a Philly cheesesteak literally the woman shared the baby announcement on her social media and revealed her son's name you ready for it I think I'm going to say it wrong it's spelled kind interestingly to Philly cheese stage Philly cheese stage cheese this is how it's spelled like Philly and then I came it's yeah several commenters were quick to point out since this baby's a junior there must be a Philly senior but that hasn't that hasn't been confirmed to me yet if if he's the second if he's the second stage

grays jr your family does not love you you have to console people before you just go ahead and

write that that's why i'm gonna use the next word of interesting again i wonder if this kid

Good. How are you?

Fantastic. Nice to have you on here, Sierra. It says here that you are a nurse and you're 24 years old. Are you in a relationship, looking for a relationship, or just got out of a relationship?

I am in a relationship for the past six years.

Do we like this person?

Oh, yeah, for sure.

What is their name?

Hopefully he's listening at work. His name's Avion.

Hi, Avion. Nice to talk to you. That would be Avion, I think, isn't it? His older brother. His older brother.

But equally thirst quenching. Let's see here. Kirsten. Is it Kirsten from Toledo? That's our other contestant here today? Kirsten. Kirsten. I apologize. guys. Kirsten, it doesn't say your age. How old are you? I'm 32. Okay. And it says you make raw

Very nice. Well, nice to meet all of you guys. Sierra and I already forgot. Kirsten. Did I say Kirsten, right? Mike Dunst. Thanks, guys. Nice to have you on. Sierra's going first and then Kirsten, you're going to go second. We're going to lock you up in a soundproof area, okay? We don't have a champion, so there will be a know-the-show tiebreaker if we should have a tie in the 5 at 6.55. Here we go. Five questions. They're all pop culture-related. Question number one for you, Sierra. What two teams are playing in this year's Super Bowl in New Orleans?

Is it the Chiefs and the Eagles?

Question number two. What two teams played in last year's Super Bowl?

The Chiefs and the Eagles.

Question number three. Halftime performer Kendrick Lamar is his first and middle name. What's his last? I'll give you a multiple choice. A, Carter, B, Graham, or C, Duckworth. Which one is Kendrick Lamar's last name?

Duckworth.

Question number four. Who performed in last year's Super Bowl halftime show?

Oh, Kendrick Lamar was in it.

You're going to say Kendrick Lamar is performing two years in a row?

Is it Usher?

Okay, I'll accept that.

Which answer am I taking?

Which one do you want?

Three seconds now.

Usher, okay. Usher, baby. And question number five, who is the commissioner of the NFL?

Commissioner? Three seconds. Can I pass?

Sure. Pass. All right. Let's bring our challenger, Kirsten, to the air.

That was so mean, Mojo. Knowing that that was meant for Shannon, that is so mean. You know what? I actually would have known all of them, I think, except for number two. I would have guessed on three, but I probably would have guessed that answer.

Okay.

But I would not have known the second one. Mean.

So how many did Sierra get?

Three out of five, Sierra. Okay. Respectable.

Okay. So you got to beat three out of five, Kirsten. Question number one. All right. What two teams are playing in this year's Super Bowl in New Orleans?

The Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs. One to one.

Question number two. What two teams played in last year's Super Bowl?

The Kansas City Chiefs and the, oh gosh. I have no idea.

One.

They beat us to get there.

San Francisco 49ers were the other team.

Stays one to one. All right. Okay.

You're going to have to get all of the remaining questions right in order to win clean. Otherwise, you got to get at least two to get a tie. Question number three. Halftime performer Kendrick Lamar is his first and middle name. What's his last? I'll give you a multiple choice. A.

Oh, I don't even need to. I did not know that. Okay. That's great.

All right. She gets these next two right. She's our new champ. Question number four. Who performed in last year's Super Bowl halftime show? Three seconds.

Three.

Boy, Beyonce?

No. Usher. Usher.

Two or three. You need this one to win, or at least tie.

It comes down to this last one. You've got to get this question right. You don't get it right. Sierra, you're our champ. If you get it right, we've got to tie. We'll do a Know the Show tiebreaker while I ask a question about the Mojo on the Morning Show. Question number five, who is the commissioner of the NFL?

Goodell. Roger Goodell?

Yes.

Three to three. It is a tie.

All right. It is a tie. Let's go one down. Man, this is good. It is time now for a Know the Show, okay? Know the Show. This is where I ask a question about the Mojo in the Morning show and a member of the show, And then you've got to tell us the answer to the Know the Show question. I'm going to ask a question that is related to the member of the show known as KP. Her initials are KP, but what does the K stand for?

Kirsten.

Kirsten?

It stands for Kirsten.

Disney on Ice performing on February the 14th on Valentine's Day. And is that at Little Caesars Arena, I believe, right? So Ticketmaster, you can get your tickets for that. Hang on the phone for just one second, Kathy. It's Mojo in the Morning. 5 at 6.55. WKQI Detroit. WSNX Muskegon Grand Rapids. WVPS Toledo. Three great stations. One stupid show. This is Mojo in the Morning. Live. All right. It is Mojo in the Morning. Got a great week of shows. We're going to give you another opportunity to go to Florida this week. We're going to do a trip this week to Fort Myers. Again, the entire month of January. It's our last to Fort Myers, and then we've got some new trips coming up. We'll preview a new destination for you coming up here. We've got that at 7.30. Then we also have Justin Timberlake and Tate McCray tickets to give away at 8.30 and 9.30. All right, Mojo in the morning. Kind of a crazy day that I had yesterday. I was supposed to fly yesterday and come back to Detroit. I'm actually not in Detroit. I'm in Florida right now, and I was going to be flying back last night. I was supposed to arrive at, like, 5 o'clock. My plane was going to take off at, like, 2.30 or something like that. And I have not had this happen to me in over a year, but I have had the worst luck with any kind of flights on Delta Airlines lately. Remember I had that one where, and that was not their fault, it was all weather-related where I was on the plane sitting on the tarmac for almost 24 hours. It was back when we had that crazy weather like a year ago, I think it was, wasn't it? Am I right? Something like that, yeah. This time, it was sitting on the plane for probably, I don't know, an hour, 45, two hours. But we sat there at the gate because, and tell me if you guys, when this happens, when they say that there's a mechanical issue, all I'm assuming is the toilet doesn't flush, right? Like, that's the mechanical. That's what I hope for. They actually said there is a part in the engine that's not working.

Nah, bro, give me a new plane.

Like, I'm like, okay. I don't know if necessarily I want to know that. Like, you know what I mean? Yeah. Like, if you went, Kev, you went to Zot, Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram with your car, and they said, yeah, there's a part in the engine not working. You wouldn't even drive that car off of the locker.

I need a rental or something.

Yeah. I mean, getting on an airplane doesn't sound great. So we sat there for a while, and I was chit-chatting with the people sitting around me. I found some nice people. Actually, a couple of listeners I met on this plane, which was nice. And we're kind of going back and forth. And I can overhear the flight attendant just then say something that I don't think anybody else that was sitting by me heard. And I heard her say, yeah, they're booking us right now for a hotel. And I'm like, okay, if you're booking for a hotel, you know for something, there's no engine part that's going to be working in this thing. Yeah, that flight's not going anywhere. So quickly, I got on my phone and got on the Delta thing and started, like, rebooking my flight. And needless to say, the pilot came on the thing and kept, you know, saying, oh, we think we got the part. We're going to, you know, he's like, I think we might be able to, you know, he's doing the whole thing. And he's kind of like calming everybody's nerves down. And then finally, two hours into it, he goes, folks, I got some bad news. Whenever they do that, you hear the big groans and stuff. And it was bad. It was that they had to cancel the flight. They didn't have the part in Florida. They had to fly a new plane in with the part on it, which does that part fly first class? Or where does it fly?

See, I don't know where you're going with this, but my question is, why are they just now being made aware of this? Is it like when you turn your car on and then you can see, like, hazard lights that pop up and the engine light? Like, they don't know until they turn the plane?

on like how do you just magically realize you're missing this part for an engine or it doesn't

work no kev it's a great point that flight that flight goes back and forth between uh detroit and tampa all the time and so the flight came in early actually and the plane was just sitting there how is it that they don't realize okay there's something wrong with this plane like it took them to restart the thing up to realize something was wrong but um nonetheless we all were safe thank god nobody's hurt that that's good but i asked the flight attendant i said hey what's the craziest reason why you've ever had to cancel a flight and she gave me two of them and they were both dog related they she said that she was on a flight they had to cancel because one of them was

a dog crapped all over the place oh i would be livid if i were on that flight so they had they

had a biohazard and i do you remember there was remember there was a guy that crapped or a woman

that crapped on the plane yes that was like a big story a couple months ago yeah so that was that

was wild so that biohazard they have to unload the plane and they have to bring people in there to clean it because you just don't want crap smell uh on the plane which is so funny because did you guys see this this was actually somebody posted this this weekend let me see if i can play it here for you i hope that there's no swear words i don't think that there are but um be ready zach just in case did you guys see the person that was on a flight and there was a person's uh farting I'll send this to you guys because it might be one of the funniest things ever. Hold on a second. This is it right here. Did you hear what he said?

No, it's really bad audio.

Okay, hold on. I'll play it one more time. His exact words are, whoever, and he's got an accent, whoever is farting, stop, please. It smells really bad. And this is what I'm hearing. that was that was this thing i'll send it to you guys it was a classic um that was so funny but could you imagine the dog pooping and then the other one was she said um that they had a dog that bit somebody and because it bit somebody they had to do a police report so can dogs just

be loose like that like you can just hold them in your arms they don't have to be in one of those

like cages or anything i think well the the really nice lady that was sitting next to me i sat next to this nice lady she's a doctor at henry ford and she's she had a dog and her dog was fine it was sitting on her lap but i think you can keep it on your lap i don't know i'd never i don't uh

i don't like my dogs i'm never i'm not lying well some of the emotional support dogs are big it's not like they can fit no it's not like they can fit in a carrier under the seat is what i'm saying so they're they're just there and the dogs die in the carriers remember oh they do it was

like a bunch of dogs that were dying in those carriers wow on the plane not in the plane but underneath you're talking no both well both it was like yeah they they put they had a puppy in a carrier and the flight attendant forced them to put it in the overhead compartment wait no you can't do that there's no air in there that's crazy it got crushed by the other luggage and it died. Dog. This is like a big news story. This is like a big news story. They were suing the airline for the dog. I'd sue the airline too. Right. That had to be Sparrow. Was it Sparrow? That seems like

something they would do. All right. I would love, it was American? Oh, 844-MOJO-LIVE, 844-665-6548. Do we have any people that work at the airports? I would love to know like hidden secrets. I've always wanted to do like just an expose on the stuff that we don't know that goes on but

um i always love when they wheel out the snack cart like if there's a delay i'm like a quaker chewy isn't going to make me feel better about my flight being delayed four hours ever what about

what about what about those what do they call the i don't even like those biscoffs anymore

they were good like the first time you had them and now if they're they're it's overkill i'm not

going to bring you in my biscoff cookies then i don't you make your own biscoff i do with cookie

butter uh buttercream frosting oh the full biscoff cookie on top let me tell you it is

how are you not married somebody hasn't swept you off your feet with with that cooking ability and

baking ability that you have i have a tub of that frosting in my fridge right now i've been eating

it with a spoon at night let me tell you you should put that on your your uh hinge profile I have a tub of frosting. Helena, what's going on? It's Mojo in the morning show. How are you, Helena?

Hi, I'm good. I want to let you guys know I had a flight delayed for.

For what?

For this phone call.

Wait, say it again. What happened?

She's gone. Oh, her phone died.

She had a flight. Oh, it says up on the call screen. She had a flight delayed for six hours over a flat tire. How did the plane land?

a flat tire what and how do they not just have those like tires come on that feels like something

you've got at every airport can you can you call bell tire in that case like call the guys over where do you go do you go to bell tire or discount tire whoever's going to give you the better deal on that deal i i thought the same thing right well that's the other thing too maybe it didn't even have a tire if it was a boeing right it just like fell off i i when they said they that was one of the things that they said to us about the engine thing they go yes we don't have this part here i'm thinking shouldn't you have a part for everything on a plane right especially at an

airport i feel like that's where you should have a hanger just for spare parts uh what's up sam

hi it's mojo in the morning how you doing sam yes hey hey we were talking about uh flights getting delayed or canceled you worked for one of the airlines yes i did like about 10 years ago

and we had a flight come in from cancun and i was going back out uh but before we uh were i was working baggage and so we used to roll the baggage on and we found one of the security fields missing and one of the panels so we had to call maintenance out maintenance came out they opened the panel up and they found like a brick of uh cocaine and uh hit it party

and that sounds that sounds to me like an inside job exactly and it was they ended up uh it was

the maintenance people were like in on it from cancun and from detroit wow so they were they

They were bringing drugs back and forth across the lines, the border, huh?

Yep. That's A1P. It was nuts. And guess what airline it was?

What airline?

You probably know. Which one? Spirit. Yeah, it's Spirit. Oh, Lordy.

By the way, I would fly Spirit Airlines if they just gave me the drugs. I would be completely fine with that. I have friends of mine that get really mad at me that I will not fly Spirit Airlines. And I've done it once. I flew Spirit Airlines one time, and it was the worst because they don't have, like, backup planes. Although Delta didn't have one yesterday.

See, look at you.

I know. I got burned by my own thing. But I don't know.

All your bougieness. You're not in the air.

Kevin, you are so right. Kevin will fly Bob's Airlines. I'll fly Mojo Air. You do that, though. I said to you when you and Josiah were going to California, I said, well, what are you flying out there? And he's flying like some airline I never even heard of before. I think we flew Spirit, but I'm for the price. If the price is right, I'm there.

If you were close enough to drive home, would you have driven home?

Yes, I would have. If it was Chicago, I would have gotten in a car and I would have gone home.

Chicago's not bad, though. I'm talking like New York. Like when I was in New York, it was loose and our flight got canceled.

Not a chance. Listen, I got to be honest with you. The beauty of being able to go and just sit in the studio and do the show from one of our other studios is awesome. I have friends of mine that work in any kind of other industry, and they just go, I'm taking a day off. and so to me i i worry more about missing a day of work than i do about you know anything it's like okay as long as we're safe everything's good like the doctor that was sitting next to me she does uh telemedicine and i guess she's able to do telemedicine from down here so she had a uh a bunch of doctors or a bunch of patients that she was going to see today so um see her at the then there's the others that just get drunk in the hotel or in the the airport, you know? Party. They just go to the bar. What's up, Sarah? Sarah, what's up? It's Mojo in the Morning Show. How you doing? Good. How are you? Good. What delayed a flight?

Someone, on an international flight, someone put a diaper in the lab, and it blocked the whole system. None of the toilets on the plane lurked until the mechanics could tear apart the plumbing piece by piece and find it. It took five hours. This is flushing a diaper. Dude, it is wild where parents will put diapers. After working in a restaurant, like, it is wild that you guys don't take care of them.

It is crazy.

Yeah, it was right before Christmas. People were going to miss their connections to meet their families. It was awful. It was so irresponsible.

That is crazy. Yeah. Well, yeah. I wonder if anybody.

I'd be terrified if I was one of the, like, if I had a baby with her, you'd be like, it wasn't me. I swear. Roy, what's up? You were on a flight that got delayed. And what was the delay over?

Six hours for a windshield wiper blade.

No. How do you not have a stash of those?

I said, does an automatic pilot need a windshield wiper? That is true.

Don't they put it in autopilot? Are they really looking out the window? Although, you probably want them to be able to see something, right?

At 10,000 feet, what are you going to see? You're about to close.

You know what, though? I'm sorry. I at least want him to be able to have a clear view just in case, you know? But I appreciate you, man. Thank you for the call.

Have a good morning.

So, could you imagine that? Roy sounds like the guy when they go, I'm sorry, folks, but we don't have a windshield washer. And he's like, a windshield washer? Come on. What is that all about?

This is your captain speaking. Thanks for listening. You are now free to walk around naked and listen to Mojo. Mojo. I love waking up to Mojo in the morning. In the morning.

All right, it is Mojo in the morning. Kevin, you have to explain this to me because I hear people say this all the time. What is imposter syndrome?

I'm sure there is a definition out there that we can, you know, Google and figure out. But I think it's like a fear, a doubt or like an insecurity that wherever you are, you're not meant to be there or you're not good enough to be there. OK. And you're realizing this either in the moment. And a friend of mine named Kyle, big shout out to Kyle. He's the director of a very cool organization that's all about teaching kids how to become leaders, especially kids from inner city communities. And it's called the Central Detroit Christian Development Center. And Kyle asked me to be on the board. Wow. Exactly.

Oh, my God, that's huge.

Super huge. So immediately I was grateful for the opportunity to be on the board, even to be considered in, because Kyle is my friend and he's one of the greatest guys I know. He actually, Mojo, you met Kyle. He prayed at our gender reveal. Oh, yes. So Kyle's incredible. So I'm like, yeah, for sure. And of course I want to help my brother. So when I get to our first board meeting on Saturday and I'm looking at not the run of show, but like I'm looking at the itinerary and really understanding what it means to be a board member and how we're having this strategic planning meeting about the future of this organization and how it's going to impact the community. I'm sitting in a chair and I'm like, man, what can I offer to this conversation? like what in my background what of my qualifications what in my history what am I about to offer to this conversation what value am I am I providing why am I in this seat and I snapped out of it for about the first five minutes after we're going around the room and we're having those introductions and everybody's saying like hey I'm John Smith and I'm the lead of da da da da hey I'm Mary Catherine and I do the da da da I'm like yeah I'm Kev I'm in sports entertainment like you know what mean like I'm still me but at the same time I'm sitting there and literally we are deciding the future of this organization that's like impacting people and I'm like damn like hearts start beating fast I start looking around like man do I belong here and I haven't had many of those moments in my life um I can appreciate it because I know that I'm not operating just fully off of who I am I know there's a higher higher power guiding me and that's what I had to tap into to get beyond it but

that imposter syndrome is is real god of all it's so funny to hear you say that and i i understand that um because i think that regardless of anybody else's title around that table when you guys were sitting there going through that agenda you were the one that was supposed to be there because i feel like it's not about i'm the ceo or i'm the president of this company it's about your heart and your compassion for what that organization is doing and that is you like i feel like you are always all in you dive in like sometimes when you speak and i'm not just talking about on the air but i'm talking about off the air about stuff i'm just like i feel like i just went to church like it's your message is so good and it's because of who you are and the life that you've led up until now and so i think but you're that is that is imposter syndrome you think you shouldn't be there but you very much are qualified to be there yeah i noticed i noticed when you said that what

your title is that you do sports entertainment why do you're you're also a major uh media

personality well i mean that's that's the entertainment part okay i feel like it's a shorter way to tell you what i do and if you really want to find out then you'll ask what does that mean and we can go into detail but to be like i host this and i'm on the mojo in the morning it just seems like it should take too long but shannon brought up a great word that word qualified this is why i say it took me a minute

Because sometimes we got to remember who we are and where our feet stand. And what I mean by that is we should be powered by purpose. And the reason why you said qualify, I was on the phone with my sister and I told her this. She was like, she got into some things. And I remember a pastor said, God doesn't call the qualified. He qualifies the called. And when you remember that you are called for something, it doesn't matter what the rule books are. Or it doesn't matter what the qualifications are under the sheet that says what the job description is. I've called you, so you already qualified. And that's what I had to remember. But prior to that, when I wasn't thinking with my, I was thinking with my mind and not like my higher mind, it made me feel like, man, you are, you shouldn't be here. Absolutely what you said was right.

And see exactly what you just said. You say that to any of the kids, life changing. And that's why you're there.

Well, and I often think I think sometimes that we try to get people that are what we call qualified, but they're not because they can't relate. And I think that relating to these kids is going to make you even more qualified. Your story qualifies you for this more so than even what you do, because you've had you got a great story. You know, you're going to add so much more positive to that organization based on how you were raised and how you were able to rise above what, you know, particular situation could have happened to you. You know what I mean? Like, I think, Kevin, you're more than qualified for that. Matter of fact, I think you're overqualified. Do they pay? Give you a raise. No. What is it? It's volunteering, right? You're volunteering for this whole thing? Yeah. So I think, and your friend knows you best, right? So did you tell, did you tell him that you felt like you were an imposter? No, I didn't.

I didn't. So he's learning that right now. Yeah.

No, it's, I, I, I sit there and I think that sometimes, like I, that's, that's amazing that your story is, like Shannon says, a story that I think so many people can hear you tell your personal, you know, childhood and then what you're doing now and how you don't ever try to make excuses for anything. And I would say that you should be talking to more kids about that.

Have you all ever felt this in any instance of your life?

I feel overqualified for everything.

For everything.

I feel like, you know, my qualification. No, yeah, absolutely. Every day we come into the show, I feel like we're not prepared enough to go on the radio and fill four hours, you know?

I think every mom feels that way.

Oh.

Every day I wake up, I'm like, I don't know what I'm doing.

Yeah. I bet. because that's the biggest responsibility of your life, Shannon.

Yeah.

What's up, Amanda? How you doing? It's Mojo in the morning. Thank you for calling the show. What's going on?

Hey, good morning. Morning.

Morning.

Morning. It's so nice to hear the passion in Kev's voice when he talks about, you know, these different organizations that he's a part of, to hear how driven he is to make an impact. And it's really nice to know that not only is he a, you know, radio personality, but he also does want to see what he can do for the future youth and to see how he can impact them to make things better, you know, with his experiences.

I appreciate that. He is more than just a pretty face.

That's right.

and a guy it's funny because i feel like kevin the last couple of topics that he's done has gone you know he's talking about you know girls and all the rest of it and you'll see like the the the people that will text in and they'll go kevin you like they're all like preaching to you like you need to get on this and it's like kevin you're probably the most rounded out of all of us because you're the most real like you tell you you do where where majority of times we don't say the things that we want to say kevin says them and it's great that's what i love so much about him on the air jennifer what's up uh grab uh line two or three or whatever jennifer's on jennifer i can't

count what's going on hi good morning guys um hey not to get too spiritual but i wanted to remind kevin that he had mentioned um getting into his higher frame of mind that's when you press in kevin you're faithful you know press in that's what your gut is telling you don't you ever doubt yourself you have been called and god has put you right where you are you are touching people you don't even know it and in when you feel yourself that's just the devil in your ear not today not today you are there you're god you're god's child and you know that so press into that let that be the moment where you're like yep this is where my faith comes into play

you got this that's right jennifer jennifer don't ever apologize for you know when you want to try to say something that is is going to make another person's life better because i feel like on this show you our freedom to speak your mind whatever you want to say well thanks mojo i appreciate that jennifer uh texter have a great day texter here i'm a school teacher that can't talk so i'm walking

But every day I try to mold kids' lives, and every day I feel like I'm an imposter until the end of the day when I see these kids walking out with smiles on their face and they just learn something. That's a cool text that came in. Alicia, what's up? It's Mojo in the morning. How are you?

Good morning. How are you?

I do not know very much culture behind their other half, but I love listening to him. My kids love listening to him. and your mind the way you think the way you break things down it intrigues me and I literally tell my children this every day when he has something so smart and makes me think every single morning and I love it and you are very more than qualified for the youth and it is heart it's heartwarming so thank you and keep up the good work truly appreciate that thank you Alicia is is their dad

Mojo in the Morning's Dirty on the 30.

Shannon with What's Trending in the Dirty on the 30. Shannon, good morning.

Well, Travis Kelsey celebrating the Kansas City Chiefs win over the Buffalo Bills by packing on the PDA with Taylor Swift. She was crying. They were smooching. There was lots of touching and feeling. She was over her telling him, I love you, and I'm so proud of you. By the way, I heard a story about them and the rules that they impose on restaurant staff when they head out for their secret date nights in Kansas City, which really are never secret, but they try very hard. I guess before Travis even brought Taylor to Kansas City for the first time, he was kind of scoping out restaurants.

He's got a few of his faves that they go to and he went to all of the time. But Taylor's security calls these restaurants beforehand to request a private room for the couple. And then they also request that anybody serving them in the private room refrain from actually interacting with them other than taking their order and such. And obviously no photos, no videos, none of that. Interesting. is allowed. Would you guys want that life?

No. I wouldn't want that life. That'd be horrible. Does it come with $2.1 billion? It doesn't matter.

If you can't live your life. It does to me.

I don't know. It's just weird. I could deal with it too, Billy. I just feel like Kansas City is just kind of like a down-home place. Anytime I've ever been to Kansas City, it's like the greatest barbecue in the world. I just feel like the people there are just kind people. If you've got to live your life where you're sitting in private rooms all day, that would suck. I'd just stay home. I wonder if he's going to retire if they win. I wonder if he'll call it quits at the end of this whole time. He said no.

He said in two different interviews that's not the case. He has a lot of football left in him. I wonder what his contract is.

Yeah. I don't know.

Alright, and other dirty this morning. Do you guys remember the name Dee Woods from Danity Kane? Oh yeah, from Making the Bandit. Yeah, exactly. She was the thick one. Well, she is this morning breaking her silence on what she calls some troubling interactions with Diddy. She's sitting down for an interview on Good Morning America. She's also doing a special with, I believe it's Investigation Discovery, but here's a little clip from this. With Sean

Combs' criminal trial just months away, some of those who work closely with the rapper are opening up for the first time about their experiences. Dee Woods shot to fame as a member of the girl

group, Danity Kane. The day we were chosen, I was like, it's bad boy for life, baby. She says

what should have been a dream come true quickly became something else. She claims Diddy created

an abusive work environment. I'm curious why you decided to speak up now. I would say that this moment now is a time where I feel like my experience, my truth will really be heard and actually considered and believed. Dee Woods sharing her story as part of the new

Investigation Discovery docuseries, The Fall of Diddy. From the outside, he was this mogul. He

was this guy who, you know, could make your dreams come true. How was it predatory? Somebody constantly treating you like a piece of meat, only seeing, only valuing you for your sex appeal. And in some of the environments, you know, it was even scary to be by yourself. You know, we'd walk with each other to the bathroom, stand in front of the door for each other. an abuser will knock your self-esteem down and then leave you to try to get their approval and

their praise diddy has denied all allegations against him his lawyers saying this production is clearly intended to present a one-sided and prejudicial narrative yeah good morning america

we'll have more for you after that airs this morning and lastly i cannot stop deep diving this Blake Lively, Justin Baldoni, it ends with us fiasco that is happening. And Mojo, you know that I can't because over the weekend you sent me something and I've watched it now twice. And it is Candace Owens also doing some deep diving. And she sat and read like the 179 pages of this lawsuit and was giving her thoughts. And actually, Megan, she agrees with you in that the real villain here is not Justin Baldoni. It is not Blake Lively. The real villain in this situation is Ryan Reynolds.

Everything we're reading, it's not a lawsuit. We are not observing publicly back and forth a lawsuit. What we are observing is essentially a ticking time bomb, a timer on Ryan Reynolds' ego. this is entire the entire thing is being driven by ryan reynolds this is not even before i was like this is like blake lively trying to me too my viewpoint is blake lively has nothing to do with what is happening her her husband has come undone and there's so much that i want to say here because i'm very disturbed by it like first and foremost what's now becoming very clear to me is that Blake Lively developed some feelings for Justin Baldoni on set. Happens, has happened to her. She has been in love with Penn Badgley from Gossip Girl. Then she got with Ryan Reynolds. All these people, they're on. set and their job is to sell that they're falling in love and a lot of times as we see with actors and actresses it actually happens and there's no question in my mind that Blake Lively caught real feelings for Justin Baldoni that comes across when you read his filings and you see how easily he disputes all of her narratives and the thing is why I say this is this is not a real lawsuit and Ryan Reynolds knows this is because he's got everything on camera okay there's even one part of the lawsuit where he says like you know this whole idea is like a sexual harassment she invited him to her penthouse and like he was holding her baby like the guy that sexually harassed you're not having them to your house and letting them hold your kids like this is 10 times worse than the amber heard lawsuit it will be 10 times worse for blake lively if she

is meant to hit this stand it is an interesting take i don't fully agree with her though okay Well, let me say this and then I want to hear what you have to say. It also now a lot of I shouldn't say a lot of people, several people from the set of the movie are coming out with information about how all of a sudden Ryan Reynolds started showing up every single day. All of a sudden there was an intimacy coordinator that was present. Then the fight started happening that people could hear from Ryan and Blake's trailer. then it was ryan reynolds going to wme the talent agency and saying it's either us or him the him being justin baldoni so they dropped justin baldoni is very interesting um kenna says that

uh blake lively has no blame in all this and i actually really disagree with her on that one because a it was her behavior in my opinion that led to this becoming a problem anyways especially after reading that suppository text if I had to guess and again all of this is just my theories on the situation Ryan saw those texts and freaked out instead of her taking accountability and saying hey I messed up in our marriage or I maybe this that and the other thing or was that inappropriate let's address that she said no I'm the victim here and then makes all women who say they've been sexually harassed in the workplace look bad because you've taken it way too far and it's her behavior and what i can only assume is her stubbornness and all of this to not be the bad guy that's making this blow out of proportion because i think ryan overreacted in a way that he thought was very justified in their marriage my wife is uncomfortable at work i can fix this let me step in let me use my power in this situation to handle her uncomfortableness and maybe the sexual harassment she's facing in the workplace and and i think blake probably had the power to stop this a long time ago and it got out of control it's just it's still so sad to me that

the true message of the movie got so horribly overshadowed by all of this blake didn't care

about the message of the movie from the get-go though she didn't even read the book i told y'all

months ago blake lively wasn't someone to care about no one wanted to listen to me though Everybody hated me for my Blake Lively take. Here we are. You said she wasn't famous for her acting. Yeah. And here we are. No one's talking about the movie, are we? Right. Did I lie?

Where's the lie? We've been blaming her since the beginning. Nobody.

kids thank you guys for listening appreciate you say hi cam that's all right cam you're you're you're a good kid all right hang on one second i hope you're a good kid hold on one second i gotta i gotta get to a couple topics uh to you to do here number one shannon's ex reached out to her this is the the ex fiancee band guy i want to know the timing of this whole thing because we just talked about him recently on the air and did shannon do something wrong by how she responded coming up here next on the mojo in the morning show we'll get to that Second date update is coming up in a little bit. And I'm kind of like walking with a little pep in my step. I was, I'm still down in Florida. I went to Gasparilla. Have you guys heard of this thing? Only last week when y'all talked about it. Kev, I've heard about it for years because back in the day, Spike and his buddies used to go to Gasparilla. And then I used to like make fun of him and say, oh, this is like a, that's a pirate thing with a bunch of dudes. I could not believe what this thing. This thing was Mardi Gras on steroids. Really? It was craziness. Did you dress up? Did not, but I passed out beads, and I've got video to prove it. But I was just on the Joe show, Joe, Jed, and Ashley, and this was kind of nice. One of their listeners reached out and asked who I was because they saw me on the float and thought they wanted to know if I was single. That's kind of like feeling all, you know, you know how it's kind of, Shannon, has this happened to you? Do you ever have like, you know, people like sit there and look at you and as a married woman, married mother, it still feels good to have somebody kind of flirt with you, you know?

I mean, it's nice to know that you're still like attractive.

I'm not hideous.

Sometimes I look in the mirror, I'm like, man, I'm tired. Go take a nap.

Even if the person is blind, I am happy.

Ugly bitches. I think anybody who answers no to that question is lying. It's always nice to feel, you know, pretty or cute or whatever.

I'm going to thirst trap my pictures today. Oh, God. Thirst trap. I'm going to see if I can get some response. All right. It's Mojo in the Morning Show. Megan, this is so real. I was, you know, thinking of this topic and then seeing a story that came out this morning that said that 38 percent of people are waiting for their tax refunds to come because they say they cannot pay their bills without their tax refunds. But this is a this is a time where it's like clamping down, trying to figure out what to do.

Yeah. And I want to be very clear before we get into this. Like, I understand that I am in a position that isn't the same as everybody else. I'm very grateful to be financially literate. And I don't have a car payment right now, which is a huge, huge blessing. And I fully understand that. So like I'm in a place right now where I'm nervous that if I feel this way about finances, how is a lot of people who are in a worse position than me feeling about finances? Because it feels like quickly, very quickly, I do not have the financial stability that I had a year ago. And I have been following a lot of different financial advice accounts online. and I have gotten memberships to certain places to lower the costs of my groceries or my gas or whatever it is. And I've done all the math and I have essentially spreadsheets of my finances that are monthly and whatever. Not to get too nerdy about it, but I feel like I'm actually spending more money trying to save money lately. And it's so incredibly disheartening just trying to go to affordable grocery stores, but you can't buy all of your groceries there. They don't provide everything so you're spending more money driving to other grocery stores and it feels like just the the hardest lessons to be learned right now and the only person It's hurting is my own bank account learning that. It's so incredibly frustrating. I just feel like I'm burning money trying to save it.

And it's tough too because you're trying to be healthy and being healthy is also something that-

It's way more expensive.

It's way more, yeah. So, listen, we do things on our show all the time because we think it's relatable. There's probably nothing more relatable that you'll hear on the show today than what you just said. how how crazy it is and difficult it is to try to live in expenses that every single year feels like they just keep going up and up and up yeah i am i recently you know was feeling like this

maybe two months ago especially around the holidays is when it really started to peak and it sounds like you're doing all the right things from a visibility standpoint i downloaded an app called rocket money because i feel like i'm just blowing money and not having that visibility I'm not a spreadsheet person. Like, I'm not just, I'm not about to be about that life like that. But, like, that app, putting things into perspective, showing me how much I'm spending, where it's going, being able to categorize things. I'm not, I wouldn't say it's a game changer because I'm not, the ship isn't doing a 180, but it's definitely not going in the direction it was going in.

So, Wes and I just sat down and did, like, a budget. Wes is totally, he's a numbers guy. He's a software guy, an engineer. you know so his nature is to put everything into a spreadsheet and I think it's a Dave Ramsey thing that because he said every every dollar should have a name like everything that you spend you need to know exactly where it's going and not that I'm a huge Dave Ramsey fan but when we sat down and put everything in a spreadsheet and like really tried to figure it out and he was like this is how much money we should be saving every month and at the end of the year this is the amount that we should have in our bank account. And I was like, why have I not been able to do that? And he's like, because it's like these little, it's all of these little things that you're like, oh, I'm going to go to Target and buy some like cute little Valentine's things for the kids. Or, oh, I'm going to grab, you know, these tank tops on Amazon, like all of those things that are not necessary. It's great that I want to do them or purchase them, but they add up so freaking quickly and I get what you're saying buy whatever yeah no and I think that's my most

frustrating part of all this is that I don't do that and it's still a struggle like gas has gone up so much and groceries have gone up so much I've canceled all of my streaming services I don't do that I haven't purchased any clothes and probably the last time I bought clothes was for Jingle Ball before that was probably four months before that like I don't I don't do little shopping I don't take vacations i don't go on trips we did a very low-key christmas this year like

it feels like my money is just going towards living you you have uh said this uh because you moved from toledo to detroit and you have gone back and forth where you said maybe i'll go back yeah is that still a possibility that you're talking about i can't afford to live here so is it the is it the cost of uh living here or is it also because i know you go back to toledo a lot for you know uh different appointments and stuff like that yeah is it would it be cheaper for you to find uh some uh sort of like yeah i know you have doctors and stuff there like move

move your doctors or do you just not want to honestly if it's if it's like three or four trips a month keeping me from affording my bills to go to toledo then i should just move to toledo well because i i don't think a couple of trips 45 minutes away a month should be the determining

factor and if I can afford to live somewhere. Because you talk that your biggest expense right now is groceries and gas. Correct. And the price of gas actually has gone down, believe it or not. I mean, I know it's gone up in like the last week, but it's way cheaper now than it was like a year ago. So I'm trying to figure out, like I do think, and I know you say that you don't, but I say it too, and I'm always BSing myself. I go online and make, I think that Jeff Bezos is the reason why I hate, uh, uh, everything. He has made it too easy for us to just go, I need this. Boom. I order it where in reality, I put things in a cart all the time now. And half the time I end up not even buying the stuff. Cause I really don't need half the stuff I put in there. Do you do, do you ever

do that or no? Do you buy it? No, no, I don't. I haven't bought anything off of Amazon in months

either. You guys buy outfits every time we have a function. The last time I bought an outfit was

for jingle ball and do you feel like you baking a lot like is that like become a new expense but

again baking is actually really inexpensive and i did that because i canceled all of my other streaming subscriptions and it was something to do in the house and if i can't afford ten dollars in flour that's that's not the make or break factor i uh it's i mean listen it things are

expensive everything's expensive and honestly if it keeps you from

finding your if it's your happiness to do certain things, there's got to be ways to be able to do the things that make you happy.

Bruh, they be listening.

Who? Why?

My app just tell me, you spent blank last week, that's 30% less than normal. That app that you were just talking about? Yes. Like literally just send me a notification.

Yeah, that's crazy by the way. They can hear that. And it sends you to this time. Is it normally? I don't know if I've ever seen one. Really? Initial H brings up the most expensive of expenses, especially with the weather that we have. What's going on, H? You're being voice disguised.

Yes. My energy bills are, like, so high right now. Yes. It's unbelievable how much they have for this month.

I thought consumers' energy, I honest to God, my last bill, I thought that they had the wrong house. It was so over the top.

I was wondering when somebody was tapping into my energy. Yes. Because I was like, it went from like $75 to $2.75. Off the chart.

I talk about DTE all the time. I do their commercials. And there is a website, dteenergy.com slash saveenergy. And people think that it's, you know, oh, that's just a commercial. You're just doing it. It truly is. If you do the things that they tell you to do, you will lower your energy costs.

i agree with the dte i'm talking about consumers by the way but sometimes if that's like it's just

for homeowners too which is so frustrating and i know the number one thing people are going to say is well it's because of where i live and absolutely part of the problem is because of where i live but if my only finance my only big purchase goes to my my living space and it's not even cable or any of that it's just heating and cooling the gas bill and rent and that is now making my life so unaffordable i that's where i want to move home i'm acknowledging that it is expensive to live there but i know the first thing and then we're getting texts about this is well you chose to live downtown look at the prices of rent in apartments not in downtown around the city they're very comparable it's not like i i looked at royal oak i looked at ferndale my rent in downtown detroit was cheaper and and rent prices just in general because i've been looking at moving back to toledo are insane there as well and home ownership is now becoming not a thing for me anymore that's not something i can do because i already had my i bought a house one so all of the deals for first-time home buyers now no longer apply to me so it's very frustrating

rewind for just one second because i do want to say this uh i do want to say with the energy costs we talked on the air about what temperature we should keep our homes at and you guys all thought was crazy because I was telling you that, you know, I keep my house at like 67 degrees, thought that was too cold. Literally just putting it to 67 degrees and putting on socks around the house or wearing, you know, a pair of sweatpants instead of putting shorts on in the wintertime has literally dropped my bill from year to year. And it was one of the things that they said. Now I get it. You know, you want to wear what you want to wear, but you know, stop being naked around the house and you'll be okay. But as far as housing is concerned, Megan, I read an article that was out like a week or so ago on Daily Mail that said that hostile living is now a deal people are living in doing hostile living where they're randomly just going out in in now because expenses are so high just not even living with people they know just randomly living with ten people in a home that might be only for or apartment that might be only be for four because we shouldn't have to do

that I thought about this Megan I'm in the same boat as you where I feel like nothing i do i can't catch up with my finances and i'm thinking i see these posts on facebook where people have houses and they have a room to rent i'm like i might as well just live in somebody's house and live in their room and pay way cheaper rent than having my own place to myself and that's crazy that as a 25 year old adult i can't afford to live in an apartment

with a full-time job with a full-time job and it's like i like it's crazy to me that people are like you need a roommate or you need to move like that's not a full expense in and of itself just moving and it's like but what else do you expect me to do when i work 40 plus hours a week full time and it's still difficult and i don't even have a car i'm one car accident away from

moving initial b is who a majority of our listeners are initial b what's happening are you there yeah your voice disguise which it's okay to be voice guys a lot of times people are just embarrassed or don't want the people to know that they're calling in you're a single mom

yeah single mom two children five and 15 and like i was telling them like i understand um being a single mom after i paid my rent and utilities i barely have money for food

yeah it's brutal And child care is the most expensive part of probably your existence, right? Trying to just find a place for your kids.

Well, they're both in school, thank God.

But summertime, what do you do?

In the summertime, I mean, I got family and like I got a 16-year-old, so he helps out, unfortunately, but that's what we got to do.

wow man that is uh i i you know know that we try our best to we're paying bills we're doing you know a thousand dollars uh an hour you know 13 hours a day we try to give back as much as we possibly can with some of the promotions that we're doing giving you opportunities to go to places like uh florida or you know uh concerts that you're not gonna be able to afford but even go into a concert even if you got free tickets the parking is expensive right so we appreciate your call thank you thank you this is a monday uplifting topic but it's real what's going on

jackie how you doing jackie hi what's up hi i was listening to megan i'm a first-time caller and i've been listening to you guys for over two years the reason why is i live in sylvania ohio And I drive to Farmington every day, sometimes seven days a week for the company I work for. And everyone's like, why don't you move to Michigan up here? I'm a single mom with two kids that both live with me. My daughter is 17. My son's 21. He goes to the University of Toledo. So I keep telling everyone Ohio is cheaper, that the insurance is cheaper. Trying to buy a home for what the home, I have a beautiful home in Slovenia, But buying a home up in Michigan would be not double, but triple the cost. And I love the company I work for. I love all my coworkers. I mean, this company is amazing. And I do this drive every day. And I'd rather do the drive every day. And I do it. And I listen to you guys every morning. But I understand, Megan, because I went to the grocery store yesterday. And everything that I bought, for some reason, like doubled. And I remember coming home and telling my son yesterday, like, all these groceries, instead of it being, like, $150, we're, like, $250. It's getting insane.

And that's the thing. It's, like, I'm getting so much backlash right now, which is insane. But, like, people are acting like I didn't budget this when I moved there two years ago. I don't think anybody's in the same financial situation they were in two years ago.

Why don't you do this? Why don't you rent a room from Chelsea and I? The kids are away.

No, it's not.

Is that going to make you cry more? You can. I'll rent it to you for 30 cents in baking goods. Could you imagine waking up in the middle of the night and seeing Mojo's flat ass? No one wants that. Seriously. It will be trade for mentions. will be you come you come you live with scott mick you can live with me i'll i'll hide the hawaiian shirts um cameron what's up cameron what's going on it's mojo in the morning hi cameron how you doing buddy

hello hi hey cameron hey dad hey i get where megan's coming from with groceries and the cost of living um uh my wife is a stay-at-home mom and i got two kids and every year our land taxes go up our car insurance goes up homeowner insurance goes up coaches are going up but

our paychecks are staying the same yeah yeah and i and i'm assuming that her being a stay-at-home mom is in many cases obviously better for your kids but it's also probably cost effective because you put her out in the workforce, the money she's bringing in is probably going to watch those kids.

Yeah, we got a friend that put their kid in daycare and it costs them $500 a week. Daycare. I get what I'm going to do with Rob. It's hard out there.

Yeah. Well, I think that this is the thing that I think makes people fed up And I think that, honestly, the world is fed up right now, and hopefully things can change. I've talked to a guy that told me that one of his things that he's now offering as a way to keep employees, because he wants to keep good employees, instead of having employees that come in, and then they go leave for a job that they're going to make another $2,000 a year. So it's always kind of like changing. the the paycheck he's now offering housing as one of his things so which is an amazing thing to think about that but I mean it used to be the benefits were insurance now the benefits are you know putting a roof over your head or even groceries all right it's mojo in the morning show

W-K-Q-I Detroit, W-S-N-X Muskegon Grand Rapids, W-V-K-S Toledo. This is Mojo in the Morning.

It's a Mojo in the Morning second date update. War of the Roses. Shannon's Dirty. This is your home of all of those. Shannon's ex reached out to her and what Shannon did next, was it the right thing or the wrong thing? We're going to ask that question. Shannon, what's going on? I can already tell you it was the wrong person.

What did you do? So this is the ex that is, I don't know if he still is, I think, was a musician. So the guy that I was engaged to, which is so weird. We were just talking about him because my stepson, remember I told you this story, is like, oh, I'm a fan of this band. I'm like, oh, great. Then I had to tell him the whole story. so I get a text message and first off this relationship ended in 2008 2009 I think was really like the last time I actually spoke to him so I thought I had his number blocked and actually his number might be blocked his number that he had this might be a new number I don't know the case or maybe I just deleted the number regardless I get a text message that says hi is

this still Shannon? So I think that's a spam one. I'd be like, delete jump. Then I am my 60

something year old mother because I write back and say, hi, who's this? And then he writes his name with a little smiley face. So I write back, hi, question mark. And he writes, just saying hello hope you're having a great day that is probably where zach is shaking his head that is where i should have just not said anything more stupid me right thanks so much

I always hope you are doing well. And he writes, yay, doing great. Love to your fam. So I am like, this is so weird. Why is he reaching out for this random reason? I have not talked to him in years and years and years and years.

Maybe I missed it. When did he say it was him? Did I miss that?

Right away. Like, is this Shannon?

When did the smiley face go? Was it a hard smiley face or the hard eyes and the smiley face?

No, it is literally just the, I'm showing everybody, just the standard smiley face. I show this text to Wes.

Oh, God. I thought you deleted it. You just said you deleted his number. That goes away when you delete his number.

No, no, no, no. I'm saying a long time ago when we broke up, I either blocked him and this is a different number or deleted him. I don't even remember what was the case.

But I thought you deleted him this time, though, too.

Well, you're getting ahead of the story because you already know how this ends. So I show this to Wes and say, you are never going to guess who reached out to me. and Wes looks at it and he said why did you respond after he said who he was yeah I mean that's a great question I'm like F you are right this is totally my nature to just be like hope hope you're great hope everything's good with you and Wes was like you do not need you do not owe him that you do not need to say that you should have just not responded at all so so I did so he is blocked now i screenshotted this obviously because i had showed it to wes and stuff and eventually wanted to make it a topic um because that's our life um but i looking back thought that i was being quote unquote nice and really didn't even need to respond to it

let me add my wisdom to this oh i can't wait i'm gonna add my wisdom no listen i gotta tell you no i'm gonna tell you this i you always get called the smartest person on the show oh this was dumb No, I think there's nothing wrong with you responding back to it. This guy was part of your history and you saying, hey, hope you're doing great. You know, move on. It's not like you're responding and sending them like, you know, you know, a nude or something like that. You're you're you're just sending it back. And honestly, I think that you just being honest and telling Wes right away, which I did, is the is the right thing to do. So I do find it very interesting. And you got to tell me the time frame of this one. Do you think he heard us talk on the air about how Wes's son was a listener or what was the what's the timeline of when he reached out to you to when Wes is Wes's son and you brought this this actually happened before that this happened a while ago, but I needed to we needed to work through it before I brought it up on the air as being truth being very truthful about it.

So this happened before the, hey, I'm a fan of this band conversation.

See, call me crazy. First off, I do think you entertained the foolishness, so I'm kind of on West Side, but I could understand where you were coming from as well. Call me crazy, though. I feel like anybody that's from the past that's just trying to reach out, not doing it off the goodness of their heart and just trying to see what's up.

That's what West said. And he was like, he's like, I know that you weren't trying to, like, do anything shady, which obviously is why I showed him the whole conversation. But he's like, him reaching out is not for no reason. And he's like, and you even responding is like that foot that, like.

Yeah, you open the door.

Keeps the door open just a little bit because he's like, even the nice. And he's right. And I didn't see it that way in the moment. And now looking back, I do. And I'm mad at myself. And it is a lesson learned.

Shannon, that dress you had on at the auto show popped up on his For You page. And he couldn't resist.

uh-huh you think it was the auto show dress is the reason why shannon was looking cold that night but okay well the timing probably if shannon said that this has been a while that he reached out to you that uh foreshadowing never mind what's up uh mark wants to make a comment what's going on

mark hi hey how are you good buddy what's up shannon you are okay how well relax first of all don't think i don't know how your relationship with this guy back then like ended i don't know the whole circumstance but i think it was a casual hey how are you hope all is well i mean i do not think you ignoring him would have been like i mean we're grown like this is come on like there's you did nothing wrong so but what's the purpose of even entertaining him

like what's the purpose of this three second conversation well again i don't know the detail

and how long but the fact that he said you know love to the fam tells me he had a pretty close relationship with family so they could have had a couple year history and you know that's like that's like saying burnout

all your ex's pictures you just don't I don't know I disagree with you I think that that's

apples and oranges I think that you don't need like I don't delete photos I think that that is all that's part you know part of your story but this is I don't need this back in my present

see I don't like that he said have a or what did he say have a great day or hope like enjoy your i don't know i thought that was a little he could have said like ho ball as well you know yeah he could have kept it a little more casual but i definitely don't think my wife talks to her exes and i still talk to mine we all get together i don't know we're just not we're very i don't know

i don't like i don't like emojis i don't like any of the emojis in there even if it's a smiley a face emoji that's too that's too friendly but i do say this i agree with you in the fact that we're all grown adults if the guy sends you a text you're not it's not like you're opening up pandora's box by just saying hey all's good great thank you boom move on and you don't have to you don't have to do long text with them if it's a quick little text if it's a long text and you're telling them your life story and explaining to them how you know uh everybody in the family is doing then you're engaged more than just a quick text to to you know make sure all is well so when

you say we're all adults are you saying that I'm not acting mature if I see the message and choose not to respond that's not mature that's not being an adult I think that if I think that if I were to

if if a client this is totally non-dating if a client from years ago that hasn't talked to Shannon in forever said hey Shannon just checking in how's it going and she found the need to answer him back there's no different she had less of a relationship with that client than she did with a man that she was going to marry I don't think that it makes a difference two totally different situations and i'm a jealous guy if chelsea's exes started texting her and she was having long conversations i'd be horribly jealous but if she said hey so and so reached out to me today i answered him back and she showed me the text exchange and it was what your text exchange was i move on i go okay no problem uh carlis what's up it's mojo in the morning what do you think

about this uh carlis yes i love you mojo but i'm with west i am with west there's zero reason for communication and the high was one thing but then the second reply was i always hope you're doing well that implies that she thinks of him and we know that may not be the case but just the wording

of it there's zero say that okay you're cutting out are you pushing buttons or hitting your Your cheek's hitting the phone. Your cheek's. Carlos.

Oh.

Carlos is a, he is a Latin.

You just offended him. You said he had fat.

He's a Latin man with lots of jealousy. All right, go to Mike next. Mike, what's going on? A lot of guys texting in with this. I want to hear what the ladies have to say, too. What's up, Mike? How you doing?

Still good, Mojo. How's it going? Good. What's going on?

comment on this um so my wife is a lot like shannon she's just a super bubbly happy go lucky person um and she gets messages just like shannon's describing all the time from guys she hasn't talked to her exes from her past whatever and i have to agree with west 100 because of the examples that i i'm about to give is with the emojis in my opinion the emojis are a gateway to getting a d-pick in the future unsolicited you're encouraging but it happens i swear to god i swear to god my wife will respond just like you did shannon she'll be like oh nice to talk to you hope you're doing well too and then that guy gets drunk one night starts crying and getting in his feelings and then you end up getting slammed with the d-pick and then you have to explain that to

Well, his number has been blocked. Let the records know.

That, by the way, is the greatest. The emoji is the...

The gateway.

Gateway to a D-Pig.

Starts with a smile, leads to a sack. You never know.

Liz, what's going on, Liz? Hi. Hello, Liz.

Oh, sorry. Hi.

Hey, what's going on?

First time, long time. Yeah. It's on the phone. how are you when i got married uh good how are you guys doing fantastic go ahead tell us what

your story is go ahead so three years ago when i got married um all within a year i got a flood of texts from exes from past admirers uh did not entertain them whatsoever um my husband told me at some point he just didn't even want to know about it. So my stance on it is I just feel like an X is an X for a reason unless we stayed in contact that entire time. I don't.

see a reason to engage whatsoever i don't trust the intention of you reaching out after all of these years when we haven't stayed in touch um and to be honest i'm perfectly happy right now you know um i i would not want to engage or do anything that i personally wouldn't feel

comfortable with my husband doing yeah oh yeah so do you think that this guy should just be blocked and be blessed and moved on um i mean i don't know if you necessarily need

me to block him but i wouldn't have responded clearly he is definitely thinking about you shannon um i think it's probably a little bit more situational i think the algorithm probably brought him over back to you somehow um do i think he needs to be blocked he doesn't seem like he needs to be but if he reaches out again i would block and move on yeah and by the way

algorithm is that also code for uh uh d pics about to come to um anna you there anna hi anna hi anna doesn't agree with you shannon uh what do you want to say

um i don't agree at all i'm sorry shannon um once you found out um who it was i feel like um you should have just been like um okay i don't need to talk to you i'm blocking you

yeah you're right looking back you are right i was wrong i just think we're all grown people

Why do we have to be that way?

Why does, grown doesn't have to look, and go ahead, I'm sorry, I don't want to interrupt you.

Oh, that's okay. The thing is, why is he reaching out? And even if it's like something small, he's going to say like, oh, you know, I just thought of you. But for what reason are you thinking that we're going to have more conversations, more texts after this? Like, what's the purpose?

I just feel like he was part of her history. And if Shannon's gone through countless, you know, days since their relationship, there's no feelings for him. And I know that this has been a person that Shannon, I know, has probably gotten over, definitely gotten over through therapy. Why not be able to go, hey, you know what, man, I hope you're doing okay. I'm doing great. I found a great man. I've got two wonderful children. And you know what? My life couldn't be better.

Are you working with this man?

No.

Whose side are you on? Look, all history doesn't happen. side all history doesn't have to be revisited and being an adult quote unquote doesn't look a certain way or in one direction you can be an adult and be elevated if you want to and reach out and have no feelings or you can be an adult and say this is my past and that's where I'm gonna

leave it yeah I but I also think too that I think that it shows uh uh Wes that uh Shannon can have a past without the past coming back and being part of her present by just going you know what that's my hey good luck to you we're all you know shannon's a christian right you know if you saw him sitting on the side of the road uh what do you do you run over him not the same situation

don't try to move the goalposts i'm not moving goalposts if you saw him on the side of the road

stop playing you know what mr i am now a single man after this thing i can't wait for all the

booty uh ex-sex that you end up having uh listen i told you i ain't exploded since july okay oh my

god you're gonna you you right you you call you you sit there and you preach a good game wait until the monday morning when he comes in and goes you're never gonna believe what the hell happened to me this weekend i'm gonna go oh let's go back to january 27 2025 monday morning 8 31 the year of the lord i'm gonna say they were on the side of the road All right. I'm running so late with Second Date Update. We're going to run late with the dirty, too. Let's go.

You want to skip this dirty?

No, I don't want to skip it. Unless you add dirty about your ex.

No, we're having so many audio issues today, it's driving me nutty. Oh, yeah. We don't have audio on the stream, either, and I'm trying to fix that.

You know what? It's iHeartRadio. The radio part. Take that radio part out. By the way, the old studio that had no technology was fantastic. This new technology, tell this Tiger team to go stick it up their ass.

It's the second date update. I'm Mojo in the morning. All right.

We're going to find out exactly why you're not getting a call back after you went on a date. It's the second date update right now. James, thank you for getting in contact with us. You can do what James did, text DATE to 95500 if you want to get on Second Date Update. So, James, you're getting ghosted. How many times have you guys been out? We went out a couple of times, three times. Okay, so you guys have been out three times. You guys have known each other for a little bit. But after the last time, that's when everything kind of went.

And what do you think is going on?

I honestly don't know. I think everything was going pretty good. I have no idea why she's close to me.

All right, we're going to find out what's going on. On the phone with us is Mackenzie. She was cool enough to pick up our calls. Mackenzie, it's Mojo in the morning. Will you say hello to James?

Oh, hello.

Hi Mackenzie James was just wondering how things are going You guys have Gone out a couple of times But the last time Seemed like there's something that might have gone on That has made you just say I'm not interested anymore Are you still interested?

I don't think so No

Why is that? If you don't mind

um i i don't know i just i i guess i just don't think he's experienced enough like he's nice he just it just doesn't seem like he's had many girlfriends or anything

that could be a really great thing though then you don't have to undo all of the you know emotional junk that he's bringing into this relationship from other ones i mean i guess

you know to an extent like sure that could be true but just like not in this case it just seems like he's like really eager to jump in a relationship with me and i just i mean i don't think i'm attracted to like you know jerks but like i like a little bit more of like you know a give and take and a push and pull like a bit of a chase like both ways yeah you want somebody

that's more experienced is what you're saying yeah James, you haven't been in many relationships, James?

I have not, but isn't that a good thing?

I don't know. I guess there's, you know, something you probably don't want me to say, but that's probably a big deal for me as well.

What is it? Yeah, what's that?

okay well um he's a he's a virgin which you know also is not the end of the world but he says that he's waiting for marriage and i just i kind of just feel like we're too old for that you know like if we were in our early 20s i'm like okay but he's 30 and i'm pushing it so

well i don't understand why that's a problem

That's a big thing in relationships I mean it is at least for me

Okay I just believe in saving myself I want it to be right The first person I'm with I want it to be the right person I kind of thought that might be you

I don't think it is I'm sorry

Is it bad to be a virgin? Is it bad to be a guy that's a virgin? I feel like maybe there's a little bit of a double standard here. If a girl was a virgin, would you not want that? Because this is interesting. We talked not that long ago about how it seems like more and more people are holding their virginity longer. But I don't know. Is that a bad thing? Is it a bad thing that he hasn't dated a lot of people?

I don't think it's a bad thing. But personally, when I used to be involved in those kinds of communities, it felt like people would try to rush into relationships faster than they should have.

So that they could get married and then have sex.

And for me, that's the only problem here. Not that you want to save yourself for marriage. That's your choice. All for it. And I don't think it's a problem that Mackenzie has a problem with it and is not interested in that because that's her choice. but I do understand the whole like even what James just said to Mackenzie was very like but I could see us having that kind of relationship already well you haven't seen each other very much for you to be so bold in that because if you're saying you're waiting till marriage and you could see that with her you're saying I could see me marrying you and we've only had a few dates or one date I'm sorry how many dates have we been on

three

that's for me that's heavy

you know you know i just really enjoy spending time with her yeah and i thought we were hitting

it off i just is i'm surprised by the whole thing um let me let me see what listeners think about this i'd love to know what some of our our female listeners think about a guy who's how old are you 30 is what he said 30 years 30 years old never dated a lot a virgin your thoughts on this one Is this something that you would maybe not want to be with or would you want to be with? Chelsea wants to make a comment.

Real quick, Chelsea, what's going on? It's Mojo in the morning. What do you think?

Hi, guys. So, okay, I have two really important points. In the beginning, she said, oh, I like a little bit of give and take, push and pull. That push and pull just set off all my red flags. She likes games. She wants to be in somebody who's seasoned in a relationship because she wants to play games and she likes to argue. I guarantee you she's that type of person. And she wants to be with someone that she can have a relationship with all kinds of drama and nonsense. And he's a nice guy and he's not, you know, quite. And honestly, he dodged a bullet. And this is probably a very big teaching moment for him. He could learn a lot about this because I'm kind of finding a lot of girls are like this. Me personally, no, I would not want to take someone's virginity. But that's just my personal preference. It's not anything against him, and that doesn't mean that it's not okay that he's a virgin. However, if she is that turned off by it, then it's probably a good thing because he probably just avoided a few STD tests.

Oh, wow. Wait, why would you not want to?

He's so grossed out by it.

Yeah.

Oh, but you know what? I don't know why. Because it takes one to know one, and I used to be one. Clocky.

Wait, wait, real quick. Like, why would you not want to take, or why would you not want to be with a virgin? You think it'd be not?

Like I said, personally, me, back in the day before I got married and had my kids, I used to run those streets. And I know, remember I said it takes one to know one? I used to be one, so I see them coming a mile away. And if she's that turned off by it and doesn't want to do it, then she's probably feeling bad because she's had all this experience with other dudes, a lot of other dudes. And doesn't want to do that to him.

Well, I'm not going to, we're not going to.

We cannot throw that. Yeah, we don't know that. She's talking about this. Thank you, child. I'm just calling it like I see it.

Just saying. That's your story. Jessica, let's move to your story. Jessica, your thoughts on this one here. We've got James, who is hoping that he would get more dates with Mackenzie, call a relationship, his first maybe a big relationship, and possibly even a loss of virginity. He's a virgin. Your thoughts on this? Hi, Jess. Jessica?

Oh, hi, Mojo. In the morning. How are you guys? What up, Jessica?

We're doing okay, Jessica. It's been a fun show. What's going on?

First time, long time. Hey there, Jessica's on the phone. So, my husband was a virgin when I met him. And that's her loss because I think it's great. You can train them how you want to be pleased in that dream.

Oh, my God. There's something hot about that whole line.

There's nothing wrong with that.

But what if you don't want to be the teacher? What if you want to be, you know, just able to just enjoy yourself? Which sounds to me like Mackenzie is kind of like, I don't want to have to do that much work.

Oh, well, I don't know. That's her problem. I like to teach, so it's fine with me. I want to be pleased the way I want to be pleased. So I have to teach them.

See that? There's upside to being with a virgin. Amy, your thoughts on this one. Amy, it's Mojo in the Morning, second date update. Hi. Hey there. Hey there, Amy.

Hi. Sorry. I was just saying that, you know, when you date a virgin, they're a lot more, like, they get attached a lot quicker. Also, they're not as experienced in the bedroom. So if you're not wanting to, like the last caller just said, if you're not wanting to be the one to teach him all those things, and you want him to know what he's doing and be, you know, a little bit more after it in the bedroom.

So you agree that dating a virgin is not, there's no upside.

It's really okay for her to feel that way.

Okay. Yeah. All right. I like that. Sticking up for her a little bit. You've done this from experience.

Yeah. My daughter's dad was 21 when I met him in a virgin and it was, it was messy. How old were you? The whole thing. A lot of drama. How old were you when he was 21? Yeah.

um i was 18 okay so you were young but you had lost your virginity before he did yeah yeah yeah

and i was like maybe he's different because he's a virgin we'll try it we'll give it a shot and yeah it just went downhill from there did you feel like you were hurting him did you feel

did he cry at all like i i cried when i lost my virginity like not in front not in front of the

But it was awkward and it came with those first time weird, the weirdness that comes with that. And again, like I didn't want to teach him all those things. Like I wanted him to be able to, you know, show me a few things, you know.

But I feel like nobody is like I want to stick up for James because I feel like we're all so focused on this. part of it and I think that it sounds to me and please correct me if I'm wrong James like this is more of an importance for you and I don't know if it's a religious thing or what that is but I think you need to find somebody that shares that same that same mindset and that same want for like a foundation and the importance of saving yourself for marriage and like Kenzie she's not

your person yeah now and actually that's what megan on uh line two said exactly that same thing uh megan feeling is going exactly the same way you are with us shannon what's up megan hey how's it going good what's going on say hi to james poor guy james been listening to

your guys's show for 25 years since i was in high school senior so thanks guys i love it wanted to say you know a lot of more people should be on james this side because um situation reverse girls be like well guys have to give me a chance give me a chance i was with the guy that was experienced i was with the guy that was virgin the guy that i was with that was experienced i laughed the entire time the virgin i married all right and it doesn't matter if they're virgin or

not they might have a lot more off to offer yeah and and you know what james you're gonna find your match your match unfortunately for you because you got attached to mckenzie is not mckenzie but i bet you there's a bunch of other girls that are out there that would have no problem

There's so many other girls out there. It's not even funny. There's like twice the amount of girls out there.

Do you think he should mention that he's a virgin? Or can you just lie about it after the fact? Like, is that something that you say?

Why would you lie about it, though? If it's important to you.

Because some people might think that you are going to hurt him. You know what I mean? Like, some people might think that it's that awkward.

I also think we're lumping together virginity and waiting till marriage, which are two different things.

And that's why I said, like, I don't know what, like, if this is a religious thing for him or what it is, but that is definitely important.

Because I don't think virginity needs to be discussed, but I do think waiting for marriage needs to be discussed.

All right. No match here for us. Another date. Thank you, James, for going on the air with us. Mackenzie, thanks for agreeing to go on the air with us. It's always tough when you're the person that has to be the bearer of bad news. So second date update on Mojo in the morning.

Mojo in the Morning's Dirty on the 30.

Shannon, we got a guest that's walking in studio here with breaking news for us. There's a big announcement, and this is for everybody in the city of Detroit. Can you wave in Grace to come into the studio? Oh, yeah, she's coming in right now. So, Shannon, tell the story about what was released on Friday about one of the most historic restaurants in downtown Detroit.

Well, unfortunately, the iconic Lafayette Coney Island was hit for the second time in less than three years with a closure because of a rat infestation, you guys.

Unreal.

Yeah, health department paid a little visit to them on Friday, didn't like what they saw. I think a few people had been complaining about seeing rats while they were eating, so they shut them down.

So Lafayette Coney Island is right there next to our good friend Grace's American Coney Island. And so this has always been a battle between the two of these guys. American Coney Island is not the Coney Island that has been ever shut down because of rat infestation. But their neighbor next door keeps getting shut down to a point that Grace with us this morning in a big announcement. grace what is it that you guys at american coney island are hoping that the city does

well end it once and for all i mean i don't want to see anything bad first of all good morning and thanks for having me and a couple of things you gotta i never want to see anything bad happen to any kind of small business restaurant business is very hard just like anybody's is but enough's enough you get shut down twice and you didn't learn your lesson the first time there's a serious problem and anyone who thinks we are one of the same is clearly mistaking and or just dumb frankly You know, there's precautions you take. These stupid comments are things you hear from people. You know, there's rats all over the city. Well, how come every other restaurant in the city isn't shut down yet? And you know what? You didn't learn your lesson the first time. Are you going to learn it the second time? I mean, this is ridiculous. And just because we're neighbors and it is not the same building, there is a wall that separates it. And when you own a business, not only do you do preventative maintenance, things happen daily in a business. I could walk in tomorrow when the heater's broken. I could walk in tomorrow when a tile falls off, you know, forget the breaking in and someone pulling a knife on you and trying to steal the register, right? This is what we deal with. You have to take care. It's like, there's the basics. You get up in the morning, you brush your teeth. That's autopilot. But then you have a list and then the list has a list. And then you have the weekly. I have a maintenance man on staff i have people i call we are there cleaning and working and making sure our customers aren't getting sick are taken care of there's respect and care so to associate me that a lot of people like to do that i'm connected i am not i have a reputation and anybody who knows me go ahead and talk about me if you don't know me don't talk that talk grace grace i i want to ask this

question. Has it been thought of, I mean, I know you're saying to the city, okay, enough is enough already. Have you thought about offering those guys, hey, we will buy your property from you and just expanding your own business into it? Let me tell you, they can keep their business

and what they serve, but I would gladly buy that building and make sure they never have a problem again. Because like I said, I don't ever want to see anyone destroyed, right? Yeah. But again, You didn't learn your lesson? That's a problem.

Why do you think that these guys keep having a problem? Is it that they're just blatantly not following rules?

Because for years they were getting away with it. They're like the little pet of whether the city or the... Remember, that's Governor Whitmer's favorite Coney Island, right? So they were getting... Yeah, anyways, that's a whole other story. But, you know, I don't know. I don't know.

So why don't we do this? We're putting a call out right now. Now, if there's a problem, and obviously there is a problem, the city needs to once and for all fix this problem. And fixing that problem means that this business should not be, you know, serving food anymore because they can't keep clean.

Not until they get their crap together. They got to get their crap together. See, I recovered. I saved that one. That was good.

That was good.

They got to get them because I do not want to keep continuing. I mean, you plug the holes in your basement. You know, these are old buildings, right? You have to take care of things. I'm constantly on the defense trying to fix stuff to make sure that what's happening over there doesn't seep into my walls. Because that is unacceptable. It's just enough is enough.

It's amazing because, you know, I know friends like you, you are a friend of mine, but I have a lot of friends that are in the restaurant business. And they say that the health departments are always on top of you. I mean, if you have the littlest things, you're going to get marked up. And it seems like the city, the city of Detroit does things maybe a little bit differently where they hold these guys that are iconic restaurants at less of a standard. And I think that that's wrong.

That's very wrong. Everyone has to be equal. And again, it's not fair. It doesn't work that way.

So Grace is going on right now and she's saying enough is enough. The city needs to do something about it. I don't know. You know, this is obviously a crazy time.

Keep them to a higher standard. And I can't. I mean, they didn't learn the first time. Are they going to learn the second time? Or a year and a half, are we going to be back here talking about the same thing again? I mean, it's for real.

By the way, the whole idea, I've never, you know, I used to love going there, too. And going to you, I loved both places. They were both great. The idea that they, the rat thing, just, oh, my God.

It's horrid. And let me tell you something. Everyone, you know, yeah, part of the city of Detroit, people like to charm one next door to each other. Okay, that's all great, right? But it gets old after a second closure of rats. And, oh, and I got a little thing to say. Customers that want to go to Lafayette County Island, wonderful. I don't have a problem who likes what better and who doesn't. Do not come into my restaurant after you're eating over there and ask to use my bathroom because you don't want to use their bathroom. If you don't use the bathroom where you eat, you've got the problem.

Does that happen?

Every day. I'm sick and tired of it. Really? Yes. Yes, how do you come over to a different place that you didn't eat and thinking they send people over to use my bathroom?

That's so good. Grace, we appreciate it. Grace for mayor. Why didn't you put your name in?

I got enough headaches, but thank you. Yes.

All right, bye. Grace, we love you. Thank you for coming in. Love you guys, too. Thanks for having me. I wish you nothing but the best. By the way, she is a longtime friend of Mojo in the morning, and I would not mess with her. You should see the fights these guys get into back and forth out on the streets. Can we do one of those, I don't know, like Jake Paul boxing type things between the two of you guys? Let's rat fight.

We're going to call Ratatouille, and I don't know.

Ratatouille.

I love Ratatouille.

Everybody eat out of marriage in a day. So good to see you.

Any other dirty? What do you got?

What else do you have? Yeah, I do have a dirty. Nothing's dirtier than Lafayette apparently. Okay, let me try to talk really, really, really quickly. Because I know we're running so late. But I do want to give an update on what's going on with Billy Ray Cyrus and that beautiful and I thought very heartfelt and vulnerable message that his son Trace wrote on Instagram last week about just being concerned for him and his health and some addictions potentially that he is battling. Well, apparently, Billy Ray saw it and read it and responded with threats of legal action. So Trace Cyrus responding again, writing, Dad, my message was beyond loving. I could have been extremely honest about a lot more, but I don't want to put your business out there like that. But for you to threaten me with legal action for wanting you to get help is a disgrace. He said, you should be ashamed of yourself. I will always love you, but I no longer respect you as a man. Everyone close to you is terrified to tell you how they really feel. I'm not. Get help. That's the latest in that. Did you guys see who Mariah Carey's rumored love interest is right now? Anderson .Paak. I'm here for it. I did see that. They were together in Aspen. Yes. Very, very handsy, kissy, lovey-dovey, whatever words. Good love. I don't know. But so he was at Sundance over the weekend and played this song for the crowd and was like so into it. Like very clearly it was intentional that he picked this song. So everyone's like, oh, this is, you know, him showing what's the age? Maybe some validity to the rumors.

He's 38. She's 55. Man. Oh, man. Good for him. Mariah is still calling out here. Oh, yeah.

And lastly, Taylor Swift named the best-dressed celebrity of the decade, according to Super Dry, the clothing brand Super Dry.

What? They're trying to get a partnership.

So they examined, like, you know how they put together these things. They examined Google searches for certain words about style and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. So they've examined the past four years of searches, but then called her best-dressed of the decade. I don't know. Harry Styles landing in second place. Now, GQ dubbed Harry an unstoppable fashion force. Number two. Zendaya, known for her timeless style, ranked third on the list for best dressed celebrity of the decade. Kanye taking fourth. Easy. Billie Eilish in fifth, rounding out the top ten. In case you were curious, Gaga, Rihanna, Ariana Grande, Meghan Markle, and Sabrina Carpenter. And at number ten. I love Billie.

Billie shouldn't be on that list.

That list is wild. I agree with you there. I don't think Kanye should be on a best dressed list. Are you serious? He looks like he's unhoused. Are you serious?

He wears a sweatshirt and sweatpants all the time. Are we forgetting who Kanye is? Nope. He is a fashion king, man. Clearly we are. I'm sorry, Kev. They're just saying that because they hate him. I just don't think this is the list for him. No. That's insane. He's in holy sweatpants.

If anybody else was wearing that out in public, you would be like, do you need money? Kanye's the man. How many years was Yeezy the best-selling shoe?

How many years? Apparently you've forgotten. I don't know. I'm wearing Yeezy boots right now. Now I'm 50. Put them on. Talk that talk.

Kanye haters.

Mind you, mind you, we did. She said talk that to her. Mind you, I know for a fact we did a story about how Kanye lost all his money. Kanye just reportedly hit $2.2 billion again. It's hush mode over here.

Yes, I gotcha.

Sierra, you're going to see Justin Timberlake. You're a winner. Yeah. We got a pair of tickets for you.

I cannot believe this. I told my son last week, if I get concert tickets to Justin Timberlake, he does all the Trolls songs. So this is going to be crazy to mention to my husband. My son is only five. I don't know if he can go. Can he?

You know what? You take your son anywhere you want to. I'm not wasting this on a five-year-old.

I wasn't sure if Justin Timberlake is more than appropriate. I mean, come on. He used to be on Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.

That was a long time ago, man. I think you'd have more fun if you brought your husband or brought, you know, a girlfriend. But you know what? Take your five-year-old. It'll be a great first concert.

That's fine, too. Yeah. Hang on the phone for a second. You guys are awesome.

We'll get some information, okay? Awesome. We love you.

bojo in the morning show good to have you guys with i feel like uh we've had a lot of stuff on today's show that you might have missed if you are just tuning in right now go back listen to the second date update she doesn't want to date a virgin then prior to that was shannon telling us about how her ex tried to text her and did Shannon responding to him cause for some issues between her and Wes. She explained that. We had Megan with a very real minute. Actually, it was more than a Megan minute. It was like a group of listeners that were all feeling the same thing, feeling the economic pains of trying to pay rent and groceries and gas. And Kev's new app, by the way, that he's using to help him with his finances. A lot of people were asking about that. So go check out that podcast. Prior to that, podcast from earlier in the hour where Kevin talked about having imposter syndrome. home and i explained why i am still in florida this morning after coming in to go to that gasparella and how my plane flight got uh got canceled um so talked about that oh and in the first uh topic of the day one of my favorites you should go listen to um boris was sweating on shannon who's boris you guys who's boris we'll find out he looked like a boris i'm telling you There's something about people that go into saunas. They have names. You've got to give them names when they're in a sauna. Shannon in a sauna with Boris. By the way, you thought it was bad. Wes is going to hear that you talked about your ex on the air today while he's over doing a mission trip in Paraguay.

He's not in Paraguay, and he already knows I talked about that. Or Zimbabwe, or wherever he is.

He's in Nepal. Well, when he hears about Boris sweating on you in the sauna, for Christ's sake. I was going to wonder what that all about. All right. It's Mojo in the morning. So I went to this Gasparilla this weekend. It's a pirate festival in Tampa. And I have to be quite honest with you. I have been to New Orleans, been there, you know, having fun with beads. I've been to Chicago for St. Patrick's Day. That's always a great party. This one, guys, put it on your to-do list. Really? Might be the most fun thing that I've done. Yes. Kev, you would have loved it. First off, the people that are there, everybody's having a great time. And I can't believe I posted, I think I'm going to post it on Mojo in the Morning today, a duplicate of my post I did on my personal page, how proud I was of Joe and Jed and Ashley and Terry from The Joe Show. These guys worked their butts off, but it was amazing, this crowd. I have pictures that I took. Like, it's all, like, 18 to 34-year-old male, females. I thought I was on a college campus with 300,000 people.

Forgive me, because I really don't know. Is it a parade? And then what? Because I know there's the parade. I know the Joe show has a float in the parade. But, like, what else is it?

It's Mardi Gras with people dressed as pirates.

So it's, like, bar hopping.

It turns into the big parade with people, like, out on the streets. And then they have, like, pop-up bars and parties that go along the entire parade route. Sounds dope. And then after the thing's over with, this is no joke, there's 300,000-plus people that are there. After the parade's over with, everybody just fills in to all the different bars and places and stuff. It was insane. And you dress like a pirate. And people dress like pirates. Let's not forget that. By the way, Ashley Nix is so wrong. She said that black people don't dress up in costume for, like, events like this, like for Renaissance festivals. There were so many great-looking. Like, I'm telling you, I saw black, white, Hispanic, Asian, I mean, Middle Eastern. I mean, it was like everybody in the world was there. It was crazy. We need to go. And people behaved. And, you know, after that whole New Orleans guy went crazy where he drove through the people, they had so much security. It was unreal.

Thank you.

Yeah, they had snipers on roofs, and they had FBI, you know, trucks, and I mean, it was pretty crazy, but it was fun. So the day started with us going over to Joe's boss's house, Tommy Chuck, who is Joe's Tony Travato, and we go to his house. We had like a brunch, and then everybody from the radio station walks over to the parade because he lives around the parade route. Nobody told me that I was going to have to walk five miles to get to the...

It was probably five blocks.

Janet, I got 20-some thousand steps. It was five miles. Are you serious?

In the whole day, not in that trip.

It was... First off, I've never walked five miles in my life. But they said that there's no... Because you can't... They shut off the roads for security purposes, right? So we walk all over, you know... And then here's the thing. There's 180 floats that are in this parade. Like, picture the Thanksgiving parade in Detroit times, like, a billion. And I said to Tommy at one point, we're down at the bottom. Like, we're at 125. That's where we entered the street. You know, float 125. And I said, oh, I said, you know, so where's our float? And I'm thinking he's going to say, like, it's 100 or something like that. He goes, we're 27. Oh, early. We're like early in the parade. We start the parade off. I'm not mad. Is that a bad thing? I had to walk from 125 to 125. Yes. Have any of you guys ever been to Tampa, Florida?

Yeah. Oh.

So we were along the bay right there on, is it Hillsboro? I don't even know what the street is called, but it's a bay shore. So we're walking the entire thing. But Chelsea one time when we came to visit Joe goes, wouldn't it be nice for us to walk the, the, and I go, no, it would not be nice. There's nothing nice about walking. So we get on the, we get on the float. We're throwing beads out to people. Like it was awesome. I mean, it was, I mean, people are screaming Joe show, like they're going crazy. So it's kind of cool as a, as a dad, you know, you're watching the impact that, you know, your child has, you know, doing the same career that you do.

Can we have a moment really quickly? Can I ask you a question to totally derail this? When you're throwing beads, are you throwing them aimlessly or are you picking?

Oh, I'm hoping that people are showing their ta-tas. Where are people showing their ta-tas? Oh, my God. It was insane. First off, I had Chelsea next to me. So mom and Joe's on there going, this is my mom's first Gasparilla. And people are throwing their tops and stuff like that. It was crazy. Shannon, of all ages, too. Like, I'm telling you, there's 50-year-old women showing off their boobs, and then there's, you know, 20-year-old girls throwing off their boobs. Yeah, it's great. Have you guys ever done that? Megan, Shannon, KP, Lydia, have you guys ever?

Do you think I've ever showed my boobs to anybody? I remember my first flashing.

What? You remember your first?

My first flashing. My dad and I, we went to a Lions game, and we were walking past the tailgate, and the girl was standing on top of what I believe was either F-150 or S-Silverado, and lifted up her shirt. My dad was looking at her, and he looked at me. He was like, yeah, I've got his first flasher. I'll never forget that.

I would never. I honestly got to think I would get a laugh down. At Faster Horses, I spun the wheel, and it landed on Show Your Tatas, but I couldn't do it. Why? I had to take, like, three shots instead. Everybody's got phones. Yeah, everyone's got phones. They'll record it. They'll post it. It's not just the people at Faster Horses going to see it. It's everybody. Right.

I think it's smart not to do it. Like, I'll be honest with you. Like, my younger days, I've been like, ah, sure. Like, I'm like, put your top down. Like, I have now become that guy. Like, I'm like, I get in dad mode, you know? You'll run over with a hoodie, cover her up. Yeah. And then the 50-year-old woman who, by the way, was a very attractive, you know, woman, showing off, I'm like, going, you got your kid standing next to you. She literally had, like, her 14-year-old son that looked like he was wearing his Little League hat.

Oh, my gosh.

It's just nuts. So let me tell you this story that happened at the end of the night. And you guys tell me what your thoughts are on this. So we go to someplace called the Tampa Club, which is the top of the Bank of America building in Tampa. It's the highest spot. It's like being on top of our Rensen in Detroit, okay, the highest spot in town. And they have a club that's up there that's like a restaurant, you know, bar type thing. and that's where iHeart had their end of the night party so Tommy Chalk was great you know he's got friends all over the place in this town Tommy's their Tony and he gets us up to this thing we all go up top to this thing and it's Joe Show everybody from you know all these

people there are there and they had food and drank and it was amazing we get a plate of food from like this buffet they had like it was pretty cool they had like short ribs and like uh they were cutting and slicing like a prime rib it was unbelievable like this spread they had and i'm sitting down and i'm eating next to nick wise do you remember nick wise used to work at our station uh styles i'm sitting next to nick wise and we're talking and i look over in the side and chelsea and Joe are sitting over in a corner there and Joe's got his plate in front of him all of a sudden out of nowhere one of his sales reps this lady named Michelle comes over with her fork and knife and starts cutting Joe's meat what right there yeah has her fork and knife and starts cutting Joe's meat and I look at Joe's face and he looks like he at first I thought our sales department doesn't do that for us like like picture angel and we're out at a restaurant or something like that or alicia or carrie or whoever picture them walking up to my plate and just starting cutting my meat or kevin's or shannon or megan's and this woman is cutting the meat and i look at joe and he kind of looks like a little awkward and i look at chelsea and she's kind of got this look on her face but we just kind of like everybody does it and the meat gets cut and then joe just starts eating. And after the night's over with, I said to Chelsea, I go, hey, can I ask you a question? She goes, yeah. I go, did I see what I thought I saw? And she goes, what's that? I said, did I see Joe's sales rep cutting his meat? And she goes, yeah, that was a little weird, wasn't it?

A little. So why?

I don't know. I think maybe she thought that he wasn't going to chew it up. Was he drunk? No, she was real drunk. I think she might have had a few. Yeah. But has, first off, A, who cuts meat like that you know what i mean like is there anybody listening that cuts their meat for their man or you know what i mean like maybe that's something that michelle does for

her husband or whatever i don't know but joe is not her husband and why didn't joe stop it

i think that joe was just kind of like i mean maybe he was as surprised as i don't know you

can't stop somebody cutting your meat yeah you can i'll let them cut do you know the number uh

lydia i know they're right down the hall from me but can you call their hotline and we can ask joe that question yeah give me one second do you have that the hotline number yeah real quick let me grab let me grab britney uh britney what's going on it's mojo in the morning hi hello britney

gras and then it's way bigger like i know new orleans gets all the hype of mardi gras i've i've been to new orleans i've never seen that many people in one place like this uh gasparella

and it is so much fun but it is fun in sanity i'd love it if we could get the show to hold

what are they doing oh oh they're going into a song right now he said he was going to keep me on a hold like he was going to talk to us okay maybe they'll pick up that's a good song to play Hold on. Yeah.

Hey, Joe. Yeah. I can hear the music. Can you turn the music off?

I don't know. Can you hear it? Yeah. That's so much better.

Question for you. I have a question for you. I witnessed something at Gasparilla on Saturday that I wanted to ask you. I was talking to our listeners and Shannon and Megan and Kevin and everybody about. I noticed you had a sales rep by the name of Michelle, and she was cutting your meat. Can you explain to me, is that something that your sales department is trained to do? Because I have never had my sales department cut my meat for me.

Yeah, I don't know. That's it? That's such a wild food. That's it?

That is a wild story. Was she drunk or something, or what was the story? because I saw her cutting her meat and I thought, she's not cutting mine or Nick Wise's meat or Jed's meat. Why is it? I don't even know what to... It's...

I don't know what to say because, I don't know, I talked to Ashley about it this morning. Ashley, what's the thing, Ashley? I'm in a very uncomfortable spot right now. I can't really speak what I genuinely believe because she's like Angel, right? Like, I make a lot of money because of her. I don't make a lot of money if I don't have her. By the way, by a lot of money, I make like $7 because of her. But, like, I have, you guys would only get it. I have, like, seven endorsements with her.

Okay.

So I don't know what to say.

So let her cut away. Tell her that I am ordering McDonald's big breakfast, and I would like her to come down to Studio G and cut my sausage.

Did you? What if she took the next step, though, and not only cut it, but then zoomed it into your mouth like an airplane? Would you have opened the garage doors to let it in?

i the garage door hey i don't i i don't see that's i don't know i it was weird it was really weird

i don't know what to say as long as you acknowledge it was a little weird that makes me feel better

everybody was going around like it put me in a very uncomfortable position yeah i don't i didn't

you're smart by the way money over over take care of her that's okay that's all right we'll talk to

you later yeah i well yeah great job but also while it was very funny to see jed which he was eating with his fingers i so that was funny but i don't know i'm trying to deflect

i don't know jed was eating guys i'm not kidding you jed was eating like um he had a piece of meat sticking out of his mouth that was unreal the best piece of meat i've ever had

I'll tell you that much.

That's how pirates eat, like Jed was eating. Pirates. Oh, yeah.

Yeah. He was a pirate. Well, I got to give out a cash keyword. Go ahead. I do, too. You came on our show to say it, so I'm going to say it. Add 93.3 FLZ is preset number one on the free iHeartRadio app. Thank you.

I plugged our show on there. There we go. Real quick, give out the cash keyword.

I'll call it after this. The cash keyword is pay.

You can't podcast it. Oh, I don't do it then. I'll lose ratings off that. Pay is the word. Pay. Pay is the word for the cash contest this hour. Pay. P-A-Y. It is.

Actually, people can hear you right now. And thank you, Dad. Yeah, so the cash keyword right now, a little throwback for you. We love that throwback. All right. The keyword is, all right, bye, guys.

Bye.

See you. Real quick, hold on. Chris, what's up, Chris? It's Mojo in the morning. Hi. What's going on?

She wanted to talk to Joe, and once Joe hung up, she did.

Oh, really? Okay, Chris hung up. All right, Carlos. Carlos. Question, Carlos. Yeah, how are you doing? As a man, is there anything better than having a woman cut your food up for you? I'm joking. I hate when that. I hate when the restaurant cuts my food. Like, have you ever had that? Have you ever ordered a steak and they try to get fancy and they cut the steak for you? Don't cut my steak.

Well, actually, I was in a restaurant at Big Boy's and I got a steak when I was over with my dad. And I was talking to the waitress about it. She actually went over there and started cutting my meat for me. No, she did not.

Wow. The waitress at Big Boy cut your meat? That is service.

Yeah. We're kind of flirting with each other, and I just talked about cutting the meat. Oh, well, that's why.

You guys were being flirty.

There is something. One thing I want to talk about when you guys are talking about people showing their... Ta-ta's. I took my son years ago to Heath Beach, and my second oldest was sitting there by the dive board. I kept wondering why he was away from us. He goes, well, that's why he's over there. He just pointed at his eye board. I saw a girl walk up there, put her shirt up, and then something to the water. And two or three other women did the same thing. I said, oh, that's why you're over here. He had a big smile on his face, and yeah. That is funny.

Oh, my God. There is nothing better than when you're a boy and you see your first boobies. And you know what? Forever, I bet you he wanted to go to that beach on vacations, didn't he?

Oh, yeah. Oh, that's great. My first time I've ever seen it, My dad went to pick up some food, and we're on one side of the place, and a woman walked by with no shirt on. I guess it was a strip club. I wasn't sure. I was a kid at the time. She walked into the room, went to the jukebox, put some money in there, and pushed the song, and walked back. I'm just like, uh, with my jaw dropped, and I was just fucking right out.

Your dad took you to a strip club?

Well, I guess he ordered some food because he was at work. How many people? I only just walked by, like, talk about drooling and my eyes bugging out. Yeah, that was me.

I wonder, that's kind of an interesting one. I wonder how many strip clubs will allow you to bring your kids for a lunch. Like, if you can just go and eat lunch there. There's no way. I can't imagine. No, they'd lose their liquor license.

All right, I got to take a break.

Wait, one second, one second, sorry. Sorry, the caller on line one, she's just so good. Pick her up.

All right, hold on. What is your name, caller on line number one? Hello. Hi, what's your name? What's your, are you there?

No. Damn it.

What was she saying, Lydia?

She got a $1,000 tip. It was like a guy's fetish for cutting up steak. Oh, wow. Shut up. Just to cut his steak up. I'm in the wrong business.

Go enter the word pay to win $1,000 on mojointhemorning.com under the cash contest. We'll be right back.

Want to get the hell out of Dodge? We got the plane and the tickets to go to Florida with Mojo in the Morning. Listen at 730 to get in on Mojo in the Morning. Mojo in the Morning's radio signal actually warms the car before you get into it. You're welcome. This is Mojo in the Morning.

We're going to give you some prizes coming up here. We've got a chance for you to win sold-out Tate McCray tickets. I'll do that in a second. And then about 10 minutes from now, we have tickets to go see the Red Wings take on the L.A. Kings at Little Caesars Arena, which is, you know, it's funny. I'm not a big hockey guy. I've got to get hockey, though, because I got so excited with the Red Wings. My entire wardrobe was nothing but, or with the Lions, my entire wardrobe was Lions Grayson material. I have nothing to wear anymore because it's all Lions.

You did who you were, just sporting Lions stuff every day for the past couple of weeks.

I got a Lions shirt on. You can still wear it, man. Does Grayson have Red Wing stuff too or no?

So they do. Oh, yeah. Oh, actually, you know who they signed? I think Dylan Larkin as their guy. Investor?

Really?

Yeah. Yeah, which, listen, I'll wear your Red Wings stuff, too. But I think openly, I think people know that I'm not a big hockey guy. When was the last time you've been to a game? Was when we did the blowing the horn. Okay. Which, I'll be quite honest, was one of the coolest experiences ever. I still say this, that the Detroit Red Wings care about us as a show way more than any of the other teams do. The other teams, you know, they care about, like, social media influencers. You know, that have like, you know, 100,000 followers and stuff. You know, Mr. Food or whatever the guy's name is, Mr. Chow or whatever. Oh, I love him. That guy gets way more love from the Lions than we get. You know what I mean? I'll be quite honest with you. It's gotten to a point now where I'm a little bit salty at all the sports teams in town, except for the Red Wings right now. So I'll bend over backwards for the Red Wings. Well, Pistons haven't done anything for me since Kevin Griggs would have Chauncey call at the show. How long ago was that? Shout out to KG. I mean, literally, we haven't had any players, none of the players come on us. Kate, I've never even had a chance to even say hi to Kate. I've been, you know, on the radio here for 20-some years, 25 years. I would love to be able to have these guys on our show. Can you work that, Mr. Kevin? Let's send a couple text messages. They're 23 and 22. They're a game over 500. That's amazing.

You've also been spitting on them for the last two years as well. Well, they've been bad. That don't mean you hate on them.

I watch every single game on Fox Sports, Valley Sports, DraftKings, whatever it's called. FanDuel. FanDuel. Seriously, I'm like their biggest TV viewer. I have it on there, so I'm giving them ratings. The Red Wings are, let's see here, 28 and 21. Now, they went on a little bit. They fired their coach, and they went on a little bit of a run.

Yeah, we're in the Todd era now. We got it. Can we make the playoffs? We're, like, probably nine or eight points behind the wild card spot, so it's not looking good right now.

It's early. It's kind of depressing. I will say this. It's depressing after the Lions lost to watch that Washington Eagles game last night and to see that the Washington Commanders were a fraud.

It's not that they were a fraud. I don't think they were a fraud. The Eagles have the number one defense. And similarly, or similar to us, if you turn the ball over, you can't do that at this level. You are facing literally the other best opponent there is out there, and they turn it over, I want to say, two or three times. You just can't do that.

But I feel like if we would have played yesterday against the Eagles, we would have had a better shot than the Washington Commanders would have.

I think if Jameer Gibbs had a rush more than 14 times, we probably would have had a better shot to win it.

Don't you think we gave up on the run in that game? I don't understand what we were thinking.

I don't know either.

We gave up on the run in the second half, and I feel like we, I don't know. I'm second-guessing. I'm going to second-guess everybody. All right, here's the deal. We got those.

Mojo in the mornings, Dirty on the 30.

I just got a text from, right when we're talking about this, one of my friends that works over with Illich's that says, we don't take care of you with the Tigers? I like this. You know what? Maybe I need to call this out more often. And maybe, you know, Martha and everybody over with the Ford family and everybody with the Lions, you need to hear that their PR departments don't care about Mojo in the morning. You guys listen to the show, but maybe your PR departments need to listen to the show. And shout out to Scooble. Scooble accepted his Cy Young yesterday. Isn't that great? That was awesome. Here's the deal. We'll talk about our teams because we're fans of our teams. We're right here in town, and we are influencers, for God's sakes. See how many social followers everybody on the show has? The show has all together. I mean, Jesus. All right, Shannon, I'm sorry. Go ahead. What do you got in the shower story?

It's okay. I want to talk about this Diddy documentary that is out there. I think it's on Investigation Discovery. Dee Woods, you probably remember her from the band Danity Kane, is breaking her silence on her interactions with Diddy. This is from her sit-down with ABC News.

With Sean Combs' criminal trial just months away, some of those who work closely with the rapper are opening up for the first time about their experiences. Dee Woods shot to fame as a member of the girl group Danity Kane.

The day we were chosen, I was like, it's bad boy for life, baby.

She says what should have been a dream come true quickly became something else. She claims Diddy created an abusive work environment.

I'm curious why you decided to speak up now. I would say that this moment now is a time where I feel like my experience, my truth, will really be heard and actually considered and believed.

Dee Woods sharing her story as part of the new Investigation Discovery docuseries, The Fall of Diddy.

From the outside, he was this mogul. He was this guy who, you know, could make your dreams come true. How was it predatory? Somebody constantly treating you like a piece of meat. Only seeing, only valuing you for your sex appeal.

Do you think that these guys would have turned against him if he wasn't in jail? Oh, no.

I don't think a lot of the accusers would have come forward and said anything. had you know cassie not not come forward first right yeah so but it's funny because they left

her out in the cold when she was the one at first for a while sure did yeah yeah nobody was just

after his money and it wasn't true and she was just not financially stable yeah i i feel like

him being in prison has now made the floodgates open up because people are like oh you know because they were so fearful of what he could do to them you know what scares me is i still think

he's capable of doing a lot of things even while in prison but oh I agree yeah uh the other story that I just I cannot stop deep diving for lack of a better phrase is this Justin Baldoni Blake Lively lawsuit over it ends with us and over the weekend political commentator Candace Owens was tossing out her opinion and she's saying the real villain here not Justin Baldoni nor Blake Lively

it's actually ryan reynolds ego everything we're reading it's it's not a lawsuit i want to go to that we are not observing publicly back and forth a lawsuit what we are observing is essentially a ticking time bomb a timer on ryan reynolds ego this is entire the entire thing is being driven by ryan reynolds this is not even before i was like this is like blake lively trying to me too my viewpoint is blake lively has nothing to do with what is happening her her husband has come undone and there's so much that i want to say here because i'm very disturbed by it like first and foremost what's now becoming very clear to me is that blake lively developed some feelings for ryan um for justin baldoni on set happens happened has happened to her she has you know been in love with Penn Badgley from you know Gossip Girl then she got with Ryan Reynolds all these people they're on set and their job is

to sell that they're falling in love and a lot of times as we see with actors and actresses it actually happens and there's no question in my mind that blake lively caught real feelings for justin baldoni that comes across when you read his filings and you see how easily he disputes all of her narratives and the thing is why i say this is this is not a real lawsuit and ryan reynolds knows this is because he's got everything on camera okay there's even one part of the a lawsuit where he says like you know this whole idea is like a sexual harassment she invited him to her penthouse and like he was holding her baby like the guy that's sexually harassed you're not having him to your house and letting him hold his kids like this is ryan reynolds is the reason why

she's doing this that she was cheating or something or had some kind of romance or

perhaps there was something going on between blake lively and justin baldoni is what she's saying and She is saying that she is actually worried for Blake Lively in this relationship because of how Ryan Reynolds is acting. He's basically killing her career for the sake of his ego.

Did you see the news story that her team's trying to push right now? No. A bunch of articles came out within the past two hours about this, and it's really interesting. And it's talking about the damage that can be done when a victim comes forward. And you say, well, she had feelings, like, fell for him. And it's an interesting point. And I actually can understand where her team is coming from and why that's a good argument, because they are right to an extent. But I think we're a lot of people. And again, we're all speculating. None of us really know what happened. And I think this trial is going to be very interesting if they don't settle before it happens, because I think there's going to be more text messages and more emails and more footage from set and whatever, which for my nosy ass is very interesting. but I I'm going to imagine because of the damage this has done to both of their careers it's not going to get that far um but I think a lot of people are doubting this and there's a lot of comments coming back at the team saying but we've seen the text messages that are inappropriate we've seen the footage of she saying one thing happened and then he posts the video and that's not what happened so it's it's really confusing this whole situation yeah yep well I think the

And the other thing, too, that needs to be called into play is the New York Times and their responsibility for this. For sure. Somebody went to them and said, hey, leak all this stuff.

Somebody went to them asking for a big favor and without getting all of the details of the story, they just went ahead and ran with what they knew.

And they're going to get their asses sued because they're going to be the ones that are going to be paying some money if there are any false things that they've posted.

Lizzo shared over the weekend that she has reached her, quote unquote, weight release goal. She shared a photo with a caption wanting her fans to use her and her story as a reminder that you can do anything you put your mind to. She did not state her weight, past or present, but she did note that she has lost 16% of her body fat. She was very, very proud of that. Yeah. Wow, that's amazing.

She's also come out and said what she's doing, right?

Yeah.

Is she doing one of the shots?

I can't remember. I don't think so. I can't remember. No?

I don't think so. Yeah, I think all this is hard work. I heard she's doing medical weight loss. Medical weight loss, the shape of things to come.

And lastly, this is a great...

They sponsor our show. They run advertising. So if you're not going to say what you're doing, I'm just going to assume medical weight loss because they advertise with us.

This is a great story that's gone viral this morning. There's a guy named Brian McShay, a regular guy, not a celebrity or anything.

Is he Nick Lachey's brother?

McShay, not Lachey.

Oh, okay.

Yeah, Brian McShay, and he was devastated because his home was tragically burned down in the California wildfires. Lived in Altadena, so he just lost his home, everything in it. Thought the engagement ring that he bought for his girlfriend and was in the home was gone forever. They go back to sift through the rubble. He finds the ring, miraculously, immediately gets down on one knee and proposes on the spot. She, of course, says yes. Oh, wow. How beautiful of a story is that? Wait. Seriously.

He found the ring on her finger. No. She had been wearing it the whole time.

No, in the rubble of what was left of their possessions. I mean, that is. Beautiful. That's a beautiful story.

And then you did not hear the full story to the whole thing. Her reaction was, you're going to give me a ring that looks like charcoal. Okay. I will not accept this. Go give me a new one.

For all of today's dirty.

You're from Altadena, California. You're probably rich.

Tampa, Florida.

Tampa, Florida, we actually had, yeah. We had the caller that moved down to Florida. It's Mojo on the Morning Show. Kevin may seem like a nice guy, but he's a cheater. I hate when you started like this, bro. Next on the Inside Edition. I don't know. Kevin cheated on somebody that, by the way, is as bad as cheating on a relationship.

Look, and I never thought ever in my life that I would break down and get to a state where I would cheat on my barber. But damn it, I didn't. So, look, with good reason, though. So, Josiah has a lot of hair on his hair right now. And he got his hair twisted. And there's a girl named Ashley that sits right across from Daryl, my barber. And I talk to Ashley every time I go in there. Ashley, good people. Ashley, braid hair. Ashley, cool. So she's braiding up Josiah hair. And then I get into a conversation. Who the best barber in the barbershop? Who the worst barber in the barbershop? Everybody get quiet or nobody want to name names. You know what I'm saying? Then they start naming names. And then Ashley says she was better than her. I'm like, Ashley, you don't cut hair. Stop playing. Every time I come in there, Ashley is braiding somebody's hair, flat iron curling, doing all of that. Never seen Ashley with clippers in her hair. I'm like, yeah, she stopped playing. She's like, I'll probably cut your hair. I'm the best one that can cut your hair based on your texture. I'm like, stop playing. But isn't the money in braiding? I would think so. I mean, y'all know. Y'all would be $200, $300, $400. So she's like, based on your hair texture, I could cut your hair better than anybody in here. I'm like, put your money where your mouth is, and then Ashley, you can cut it. Cut it then. So we started talking. And I said, you know what? I need a haircut this weekend. Hit up Daryl in a group chat. I'm like, bro, put me and Ashley in a group chat real quick. Ashley's in a group chat. I'm like, Ashley, what you doing Friday? She's like, I'm open two out of three. I'm like, bet. I'm pulling up. I pull up. Wait, you actually called him to ask for her?

How else was I going to get her number?

How else was I going to get her number? What does he think that you're calling her? I don't know. He said bet. And then he put us in a group chat. And then that's when I started asking my questions.

You are bad.

So look, so I pull up. First off, I'm not a male chauvinist. Let me start by saying that. I don't believe I am. And I pray to God I'm not because I don't think this way. I've never considered allowing a woman to cut my hair.

Why?

I just didn't think that they would be sweet. Like, I thought a woman should do a woman's hair and a guy knows a guy's hair, so he should do a guy's hair. Like, I've been in barbershops before and I've seen women cut hair. And it looks nice. I just never thought that they could do a better job than a man. That's just where I was at in my journey, I guess. After this experience, I may never see Daryl again. Dog, first off, I'm talking about as soon as I sat in the chair, she was like, can I take your coat? I said, I've never been in a barbershop where they took my coat. She took my coat. You look like Josiah so much when you take my back. She took my coat. From there, I was like, oh, this is a full service experience. When you're in a barbershop and a guy needs to, like, get the back of your head, like the line part, he'll just push your head down. She asked first. She's like, or she announced it. She's like, I'm going to put your head down. I was like, oh, she actually announced it? She shampooed it, massaged it, and then we took a shot at Tacomo after whatever. Stop. Bruh, I'm done. Let me see your hair. Daryl, I'm done. Let me see your hair. I mean, it ain't as fresh as it was, but she went off. You are. By the way. Wow. So was Daryl there? Yes. that Ashley's doing your hair? Was he giving you dirty looks? I mean, I'm like, Daryl, is she good? Like, I was still checking in with him just to make sure everything was looking nice.

He's co-sondering. Wait, it was like you were having a threesome. All you guys in the same room.

Hey, real quick. There were a lot of people there.

Real quick, I just want you to know this. You cannot cheat on your hairstylist. First off, Daryl gives us great content. The guy is giving us more good breaks on this radio show. I have no idea what Ashley is like, but Ashley does not have the takes that Daryl does. Daryl's takes go crazy.

That's for Dan's show.

Number one. Number two, I almost cheated on Katrina one time, okay? Tell me about it. Because Katrina travels the world. She's like the hairdresser to the stars. She wasn't around. I went to George for one haircut. I actually reached out to Katrina to say, is it okay, because I needed a haircut. So George, who owns the sex, he was fantastic. I can't go back to George. I go back to George, that Albanian woman will cut me. How did George do your hair, though? Did he do a fantastic job? I kind of liked it. It was actually nice. But Katrina's my girl. I can't cheat on her. I made a vow to Chelsea and Katrina, and my vow was to not, you know, go and mess around.

I don't know, man. This experience, I mean, don't get me wrong. Daryl's amazing. He's been my guy for years. We have incredible conversation. But it's something about a woman being in my head that felt different. Like, she massaged, she shampooed me, put a do-rag on. It was the whole thing.

Did you, uh...

No, do not ask that question. Do I say it again?

Did your hair stand on its straight ends?

I mean, you know those little robes they put over you?

Yeah.

It may have been a little rise in action.

You even got a robe. Wait, does Daryl give you a robe? Yeah, but you know what's crazy? He gives you a cape, right? He doesn't give you, like, full robe, does he?

Yeah, they put the little thing on your neck. Yeah, hold on. Do you know the little, I don't know if they do it in the six, but they got this little, I don't want to say it's a blow charge, but it blows out air to like dust all the hair that's falling off of your face. Daryl, bro, I'm talking about Daryl blows that thing, pause straight in my face, like regardless of my eyes, regardless if I can breathe. He was over there cutting a little kid hair, I think because it was a single mom that was doing it. He covering the boy eyes. He doing it all in the low mode. You don't be caring about this.

Hey, real quick. 844-MOJO-LIVE, 844-665-6548. Do we have any barbers, hairstylists that are listening? Do you know when your clients cheat on you and they go somewhere else? They can tell that, right? You can tell somebody else has got. It's like, I remember Ashley Nix one time told me, she's like, you know how you tell if somebody's cheating on you? You smell their D. And I'm like, wait a second. She would always say that. And I'm like, wait, hairstylists, do they smell your hair? What do they do? Can they feel like somebody else's scissors? Craig, what's going on? Craig wants to say women aren't the best at cutting your hair. Who are the best at cutting your hair, Craig?

So when I've had the best haircuts, it's been by gay men.

Yeah.

They're good.

They're good. Yeah. Well, like you said, with women, I mean, I don't know. So it's just they put that extra effort in, and it's definitely I've had the best cuts by gay men.

Where do you go get your hair cut? Who's the salon?

Now I just go to great clips. I mean, I'm not. Okay, yeah.

You're not going to see many gay men at great clips. This is not going to happen.

Right, right. But when I did get my hair cut, like to really make it look good, gay men have done the best job.

I think Kev's on to something here because it's funny. I think that there's a whole thing with Kevin in this. First off, I think that you're never going to be able to cheat on Daryl because Daryl is in the same salon as Ashley, right?

Well, he just did. Yeah, they're right across.

You didn't cheat, actually. One time.

Technically, you didn't cheat because you asked for permission and you did it right in front of him. I'm going back, though. I'm going back to Ashley, though, off-road. Because she said, let's just talk. There's a homie named TC that did my hair before I let Ashley do it because Daryl was out, so I grabbed TC. She said, TC pushed my line back. So she had to, like, she was giving me information. I'm like, okay, we're going to double back because I need to see how she really is.

But here's the thing, though. Kevin's going to have an affair with Ashley, but he's not going to full-on, like, have a relationship because you can't do it in the same salon. Like, it just doesn't happen that way.

Honestly, I want to hit them all. That sounds crazy. I want to see who's the best barber in a barbershop. I want to get my hair cut by everybody. That's just the vibe I'm on.

Hold on. Mystery's on to something. Mystery, what's going on? What do you think's going on with Kevin going to now this girl, Ashley? Hi, Mystery.

Oh, hey. Yeah, I think maybe, you know, Kev, he went through his little separation. or whatever, he might just be missing the touch and being taken care of by a woman. That's it. That is an interesting take.

Read me, okay.

Maybe it is. I don't know. Maybe Kevin just needs some female touch, and that's why he's interested in Ashley so much. It's not so much that she's great at what she does, it's just that he misses the girl touch, right?

I don't think that's what it is, but we can entertain it.

maybe you don't know listener Megan is a stylist where are you uh Megan where are you a stylist at

plug your salon I am a stylist at Trico Salon and Spa in Ann Arbor hey what's happening so I can always tell when my clients are cheating on me um first of all they sit down and their faces get real red and I'm like okay they're either about to give me some dirt which they always do or then i start touching their hair and i'm like okay what happened and why why are we doing this so i can their cuts are either messed up or completely botched or like you can tell right

away like the color is bad or off and uh yeah what's the biggest reason why somebody cheats is it that the availability or is it that somebody tells them or what is it no usually it's it's

pretty much always the availability they're like oh i couldn't get in with you so i went to so and so at you know not so super cuts and like that's crazy i'm like so i'm like well now you got to pay extra so like just wait the extra week so you don't have to pay the extra money because now i

got to do extra work to fix whatever's going on can i tell you i am the worst client for any of you guys and you can ask katrina this i never pre-plan i always go hey can you fit me into it And I feel bad. She's excellent, by the way. And if she says no, I understand it. She's busy that she can't do it. But I would be the worst client in the world, just like I'd be the worst person to ever have sex with. But I don't know.

To that point, though, about it kind of dipping its toe in a relationship pool, is it one of those things where maybe you just want to try something new?

Yeah.

Sometimes you need it.

I had one time a listener said on the air one time, he said, you can't stay with the same vagina your entire life. Yeah. Raphael. It was a listener that said it. Remember his name? I don't remember his name. I don't think we ever put him back on the air after that. What's going on, Raphael? Hi. Raphael, are you there?

Oh, yeah, I'm here. I'm sorry. I was kind of cut out for a minute. But, yeah, hey, Kev, it's not cheating if you're doing it in the shop, man. So if you're getting your hair cut by somebody other than your barber in the same shop, you're good.

Okay. Is that like the guys that say?

I own a shop out here in Phoenix, and my clients come in, and they tell me, like, hey, man, I just had to cheat on you, man. But I see it every time they sit down, though. I'm like, yeah, you went to somebody else, huh?

Rafael, is it that phrase, what you just said today, it's not cheating if it's in the same shop? Is that like the guys that say, eating ain't cheating? When I hear guys say that all the time, I'm like, come on.

Eating ain't cheating? If that's similar, yeah. It's crazy. If they're similar, okay. That's crazy.

Rafael, Shannon, Phoenix is calling us now.

I know. Sorry, my heart just stopped that you just said that. Tony and Colleen literally just walked by.

You can do what James did. Text date to 95500 if you want to get on second date update. So, James, you're getting ghosted. How many times have you guys been out? uh we went out a couple of times three times okay so you guys been out three times you guys have known each other for a little bit but after the last time that's when everything kind of went

and what do you think's going on i i honestly don't know i i think everything was going pretty good um i have no idea why she goes to me all right we're gonna find out what's going on on

the phone with us is mckenzie she was cool enough to pick up our calls mckenzie it's mojo in the morning will you say hello to james oh um hello hi mckenzie james was just wondering how things are going you guys have gone out a couple of times but the last time seemed like there's something that might have gone on that has made you just say, I'm not interested anymore. Are you still interested?

I don't think so, no.

Why is that, if you don't mind?

I don't know. I just, I guess I just don't think he's experienced enough. Like, he's nice. He just doesn't seem like he's had many girlfriends or anything.

That could be a really great thing, though. then you don't have to undo all of the you know emotional junk that he's bringing into this

relationship from other ones i mean i guess you know to an extent like sure that could be true but just like not in this case it just seems like he's like really eager to jump in a relationship with me and i just i mean i don't think i'm attracted to like you know jerks but like i like a little bit more of like you know a give and take and a push and pull like a bit of a chase You want somebody that's

more experienced is what you're saying?

Yeah.

James, you haven't been in many relationships, James? I have not.

Uh, but isn't that a good thing?

Not Derek.

I, I don't know. I guess there's, you know, something you probably don't want me to say, but that's probably a big deal for me as well.

What is it? What, yeah, what's that?

Okay, well, um, he's a, he's a virgin, which, you know, also is not the end of the world, but he says that he's waiting for marriage. and I just I kind of just feel like we're too old for that you know like if we were in our early 20s I'm like okay but he's 30 and I'm pushing it so well I don't understand why that's a problem that's a big thing in relationships I mean it is at least for me

okay I you know I just believe in saving myself I want it to be right first you know the first person I'm with, I want it to be the right person. I kind of thought that might be you.

I don't think it is. I'm sorry.

Is it bad to be a virgin? Is it bad to be a guy that's a virgin? I feel like maybe there's a little bit of a double standard here. If a girl was a virgin, would you not want that? Because this is interesting. We talked not that long ago about how it seems like more and more people are holding their virginity longer. But I don't know. Is that a bad thing? Is it a bad thing that he hasn't dated a lot of people?

I don't think it's a bad thing. But personally, when I used to be involved in those kinds of communities, it felt like people would try to rush into relationships faster than they should have.

So that they could get married and then have sex.

Correct. And for me, that's the only problem here. Not that you want to save yourself for marriage. That's your choice. All for it. And I don't think it's a problem that Mackenzie has a problem with it and is not interested in that because that's her choice. But I do understand the whole, like, even what James just said to Mackenzie was very, like, but I could see us having that kind of relationship already. Well, you haven't seen each other very much for you to be so bold in that. Because if you're saying you're waiting till marriage and you could see that with her, you're saying I could see me marrying you and we've only had a few dates. Or one date. I'm sorry. How many dates have we been on?

Three.

That's, for me, that's heavy.

You know, you know. I just really enjoy spending time with her. Yeah. And I thought we were hitting it off. This is, I'm surprised by the whole thing.

Let me see what listeners think about this. I'd love to know what some of our female listeners think about a guy who's, how old are you, 30? 30 years old, never dated a lot. a virgin your thoughts on this one is this something that you would maybe not want to be with or would you want to be with uh chelsea wants to make a comment real quick chelsea what's going

on it's mojo in the morning what do you think hi guys so okay i have two really important points in the beginning she said oh i like a little bit of give and take push and pull that push and pull just set off all my red flags she likes games she wants to be in somebody who's seasoned in a relationship because she wants to play games and she likes to argue i guarantee you she's that that type of person she wants to be with someone that she can have a relationship with all kinds of drama and nonsense and he's a nice guy and he's not you know quite and honestly he dodged a bullet and this is probably a very big teaching moment for him he could learn a lot about this because I'm kind of finding a lot of girls are like this. Me, personally, no, I would not want to take someone's virginity, but that's just my personal preference. It's not anything against him, and that doesn't mean that it's not okay that he's a virgin. However, if she's that turned off by it, then it's probably a good thing because he probably just avoided a few STD tests.

Oh, wow. Wait, why would you not want to?

I'm so grossed out by it.

Yeah.

Oh, but you know what? I don't know why. Because it takes one to know one, and I used to be one. Clocky.

Wait, wait, real quick. Why would you not want to take, or why would you not want to be with a virgin? You think it'd be not?

Like I said, personally, me, back in the day before I got married and had my kids, I used to run those streets. And I know, remember I said it takes one to know one? I used to be one So I see them coming a mile away And if she's that turned off by it And doesn't want to do it Then she's probably feeling bad Because she's had all this experience with other dudes A lot of other dudes And doesn't want to do that to him We cannot throw that

Yeah, we don't know that. Thank you, child. I'm just calling it like I see it. That's your story. Jessica, let's move to your story. Jessica, your thoughts on this one here. We've got James, who is hoping that he would get more dates with Mackenzie, call a relationship, his first maybe a big relationship, and possibly even a loss of virginity. He's a virgin. Your thoughts on this? Hi, Jess. Jessica?

Oh, hi, Mojo. In the morning. How are you guys? What up, Jessica?

We're doing okay, Jessica. It's been a fun show. What's going on?

First time, long time. Hey there, Jessica's on the phone. So, my husband was a virgin when I met him, and that's her loss because I think it's great. You can train them how you want to be pleased in that dream.

Oh, my God. There's something hot about that whole line. but what if but what if you don't want to be the teacher what if what if you want to be you know just uh able to just enjoy yourself which just sounds to me like mackenzie's kind of like i

don't want to have to do that much work oh well i don't know that's her problem i like to teach so it's fine with me i want i want to be pleased the way i want to be pleased so i have to teach

them see that there's upside to being uh with a virgin amy your thoughts on this one amy it's mojo in the morning second date update hi hey there hey there amy hi sorry um i was just saying

that you know when you date a virgin they're a lot more like they get attached a lot quicker also they're not as experienced in the bedroom so if you're not wanting to like the last caller just said if you're not wanting to be the one to teach him all those things and you want him to know what he's doing and be you know a little bit more after it in the bedroom so you agree

that dating a virgin is not there's no upside okay yeah all right i like that sticking up for her a little bit you've done this is from experience yeah uh my daughter's dad was 21

when i met him and a virgin and it was it was messy how old were you the whole thing a lot of drama how old were you when he was 21 yeah um i was 18 okay so you were young but you had lost your virginity before you did yeah yeah yeah and i was like maybe he's different because he's a virgin we'll try it we'll give it a shot and yeah it just went downhill from there did you

feel like you were hurting him did you feel did he cry at all like i i cried when i lost my virginity like not in front not in front of the girl but it was awkward and it came with those

first time weird the weirdness that comes with that and again like i didn't want to teach him all those things like i wanted him to be able to you know show me a few things you know but i feel

like nobody is like i want to stick up for james because i feel like we're all so focused on the sex part of it and i think that it sounds to me and please correct me if i'm wrong james like this is more of an importance for you and i don't know if it's a religious thing or what that is but i think you need to find somebody that shares that same that same mindset and that same want for like a foundation and the importance of saving yourself for marriage and

but kenzie she's not your person yeah now and actually that's what megan on uh line two said exactly that same thing uh megan feeling is going exactly the same way you are with us shannon what's up megan hey how's it going good what's going on say hi to james poor guy james

been listening to your guys's show for 25 years since i was in a high school senior so thanks guys i love it i wanted to say you know a lot of more people should be on james's side because situation reversed girls be like well guys have to give me a chance give me a chance i was with the guy that was experienced i was with the guy that was virgin the guy that i was with that was experienced, I laughed the entire time. The virgin, I married.

Alright.

And it doesn't matter if they're a virgin or not. They might have a lot more to offer.

Yeah, and you know what, James? You're going to find your match. Your match, unfortunately, for you, because you got attached to Mackenzie, is not Mackenzie, but I bet you there's a bunch of other girls that are out there that would have no problem with this. There's so many other girls

out there, it's not even funny. There's like twice the amount of girls out there. Do you think

you should mention that he's a virgin, or can you just lie about it after the fact? Like, is that something that you say?

Why would you lie about it, though, if it's important to you?

Because some people might think that you are going to hurt them. You know what I mean? Like, some people might think that it's that awkward.

I also think we're lumping together virginity and waiting till marriage, which are two different things.

And that's why I said, like, I don't know if this is a religious thing for him or what it is, but that is definitely important.

Because I don't think virginity needs to be discussed, but I do think...

waiting for marriage needs to be discussed.

Alright, no match here for us. Another date. Thank you, James, for going on the air with us. Mackenzie, thanks for agreeing to go on the air with us. It's always tough when you're the person that has to be the bearer of bad news. So, second date update on Mojo in the Morning.
