good friend of mine who I met through church actually who is a financial planner I know nothing about money you guys and so as I've gone from radio job to radio job you know they give you like a 401k or whatever and then when you go from one to the other well you're supposed to put money in it do not put money in yours I don't know what I don't know what to do with any of this I am not good with that I am not good at that so like the little bit of money that I have saved over the years my my friend Carl is his name has helped me put it in accounts that actually like help this this little bit of money grow but I'm proud of it right okay Carl we love Carl shout out to Carl this morning so anything that happens to to this account that I have I get notified right like if I make any changes to it or if I take money out of it or put money into it whatever so last week I get a letter in the mail alerting me that Wes's phone number had been added to my account and I'm thinking well that's really strange because I didn't do that like I didn't go online and add his number to my to my account but I mean in true fashion I think any of us would do this we're like whatever I threw the letter away I'm thinking junk mail I don't know how it happened but okay like it doesn't really bother me that much well then yesterday i get another letter alerting me that wes's email address was now the contact for my account so his phone number gets added and then his email address is on there as well and i'm thinking no way this is a hundred million percent not me doing this dun dun dun dun dun dun and and wes and i just had a conversation and specifically said we are not merging like this part of our we're not merging our finances really at all okay so i'm like what in the actual hell is going on and then i get this pit in my stomach because you guys know i watch and listen to dateline every single day that is not an exaggeration andrea canning from dateline is actually a friend of mine now and i'm thinking like legit yeah legit friend really yes so i i'm thinking to myself holy spit wes is going to off me and collect this little bit of money that I have saved with Carl. I've seen this. And he is going behind so have I. Dear John. He is going. Yes! That's a Dear John

moment right there. What's Dear John? Dear John.

You never saw the Dear John. You need to watch Dear John. Is it a show or a Connie Britton? It's so

good. It was a book that I think became

a podcast. It became

a show. Yeah. I thought that was the wrong one.

No. Oh, I got the movie with Channing Tatum and Amanda Seymour. No.

John is the new boyfriend husband that steals everything from her and they find out. Right out from under

her nose. And has done this to multiple women. Holy crap, who did I marry? This man is like changing the name on all of my accounts. So I call good old Carl immediately and as I'm explaining and panicking, actually I did it right after the show yesterday, right there, if you heard me. Do you guys mean Dirty John? Dirty John. Sorry, I'm trying to find it. Dirty John. Okay, sorry. Dirty John. Because I do want to watch it, so. Yeah, dear John is Channing Tatum. Yeah. It's like, no money. But I'm explaining to Carl, I'm like, I got this letter, and it said that his, you know, they put his phone number on my account, and then I got another letter today, and it said that they, that his email address is now the contact, and Carl starts laughing, and he's like, oh, I met Wes, I ran into Wes, I met Wes, and we had a great conversation at the coffee, with this little neighborhood coffee place this morning, and I would love to get together and do dinner with you guys the four of us like Carl his wife Wes and I and so he's like instead of like you know writing down all of his information he's like I was I I just added it to your account so that's where it was saved so when I went to invite you guys to dinner I would have it right there and he's like and any change that's made to your account automatically it's just the system like kicks out a letter informing you that a change had been made so because he wants to go to dinner with us that's how it and he's too lazy to save it in his phone yeah he saved it on my actual account I get notified and it basically showed that Wes's information replaced mine so I'm thinking I'm going to get murdered yeah and really it's just Carl wants to have dinner with us

Can I ask a question? Maybe this is a question for Carl. Why are Carl and Wes going to breakfast by themselves?

They didn't. Wes was working. He works in like a coffee shop.

Where's Andrea Canina now?

And Carl just went in and he happened to be there and they bumped into each other. He's like, let me get your phone number. That sounds all too convenient.

We saw that on Dirty John, Dear John.

I thought I was going nuts for a second.

And then they planned your murder.

We'll be right back with more Dayline NBC coming up in moments.

Please just play Defying Gravity and have confetti cannons at my funeral. That's all I care about. That's my only, those are my asks.

What would you rather? Would you rather, because this is an interesting one, would you rather be robbed or killed? Because I think I'd rather be killed.

Depends on the day. He's not getting that much money if he robs me.

No, but here's the thing, though. I would rather, like, you were thinking that he was going to kill you, the whole people that steal things from you, like, guy you meet. If anybody's ever had this happen, has anybody ever had, like, a person that they went on a date with rob them? I'd love to know, or you ended up getting in a relationship with. But I would rather have them just kill me than be broke. Like, I would, you know, I've been broke, and I didn't want to be broke.

Here's the thing. If you rob me, I'm going to be in a pretty similar financial situation than I am right now, so go ahead.

Yeah, that's right. So pretty much the same thing. What are you going to take?

There's nothing there.

844-MOJO-LIVE, 844-665-6548 is our telephone number, 844-MOJO-LIVE. Real quick, KP, make sure I'm on the same phone, because I know you changed my phone system yesterday. Am I on the good one here? Do I know? Let's see. Settings here, details, ba-ba-ba-ba, ta-ta-ta, ta-ta, ta-ta. I got the phone. Is that the right phone system? You did it! Where do I look to see if it's the right phone? Just so I know. And we got all kinds of crazy new stuff here. New toys.

I like the ta-ta-ta-ta-ta.

Oh, right there. Okay, there you go.

I do love when he's stalling and he doesn't know what to say.

Hold on. I got Amanda. Hey, Amanda.

Hi, Amanda. Hi. Good morning.

Amanda, did you have a moment like Shannon had?

No, but I want to inform Shannon of something kind of sketchy. um so if he already has the phone number and it he's on the account and then weeks later he adds an email address why do you need an email address no one emails carl and his wife are going to kill

you both well the funny thing is too the email address was wrong on there we all know by the way

that the sketchy people are the ones that go to church and that was carly she met him at church

Well, that would be me too.

Yeah. Oh, hold on a second. Amanda, quick question for you. Would you even know if you started dating a guy if he was robbing you? Because I don't even know my bank stuff. Like, I have no clue.

That's the other thing. I couldn't tell you what my username and password is into this account. Like, I'd have to go look for it. I have it saved, but I don't have it just, like, offhand on the top of my head.

Like, I have the work 401k. I'm not going to lie to you guys. I could not tell you how to get to it. I have no clue.

Same.

None. The only time I know it is if it basically says something to me like, hey, you know, we're changing accounts or something like that. I have no clue with that whole thing. People, by the way, are all thinking that there's something to Carl and Wes hanging out with each other. Listen to this text message. I think Carl and Wes are in cahoots and are going to split the money after they kill Shannon.

well defying gravity and confetti megan i'm putting it to you let me tell you i got confetti

cannons in my trunk right now i know you do oh my god and then uh this is amy 586 says they did a dirty john documentary with the real people and it happened it happens watch out um that is true i i will say this to you when you hear those stories and i remember when that thing was out and it was like hot like it was like the big thing they watch i remember we ended up having a call from somebody that had almost exactly the same type of situation where the guy was like amazing they thought he was like going to be this unbelievable stepfather of their children and it was one kid in the family that thought this guy's bad news so there you go all right it's mojo in the morning show

That's it? Yeah, that's it. What is your favorite thing about Jess? What's the favorite thing about being married?

How good is your memory? It's Mojo in the mornings back in the day. What year did this stuff happen?

We were worried that they got divorced. It was like, I don't know if it was a rumor, internet rumor that was going around, but Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel got married in this year.

Jess was here last time she was here. I was asking what she loves about being married, and she said her favorite thing about being married is being able to say, my husband. That's what she loves. That's it? Yeah, that's it. What is your favorite thing about Jess? What's the favorite thing about being married?

Calling her my husband. Project X was the big movie.

This is your boy, Costa, your host for the evening. Behind me is Thomas Cub's house. Today is Thomas Cub's birthday, and this is Project X.

I remember the kid in Farmington Hills that tried to model it right after that. Oh, my God. And it was a total spit show for that kid.

Created by a guy from Slovenia.

Oh, really?

Yeah, he went to Southview.

Did he have the party, too, the big party there?

I don't know, but I wasn't invited if he did.

And this was the big song from Adele. What year was it? We'll set you up with tickets to go see Justin Timberlake. What year was that, Lauren?

2012. You got it. Right.

What gave it away?

Definitely the Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel getting married.

You know what's funny is I'm rooting for them. I root for them as a couple, you know? I don't know what it is, but I love her.

We were just talking about it on the phone. I just, I don't know. As a couple, I don't know. As a musician, I love Justin Turmeric as a magician. As a person, not so much.

You know what? I think everybody has their flaws, though, you know? Those who live in glass houses need not throw stones.

He just doesn't come off very nice.

Correct. I think the guys, you know what? Hey, we all don't come off very nice. We go through our stages here.

I mean, NSYNC. One word, NSYNC. There you go. That's it.

Exactly. Well, here's the deal. Isn't that one word? We're going to set you up. One word, NSYNC. NSYNC. With an asterisk. With that little asterisk, yeah. Hold on to the line for a second. We'll get you set up. We have Jingle Ball tickets, too, now that we're giving away. 844 Mojo Live. It's Tuesday at Little Caesars Arena. Did I see? Maybe I'll do this as the first Dirty Story. Mojo in the Morning's Dirty on the 30. Did I see I'm Breaking Dirty? Megan trying on outfits for Jingle Ball, Jingle Ball, Jingle All the Way yesterday.

We did very last minute. Thank you, Shannon, for your in-dressing room advice as I'm frantically texting you. But it's so funny because I always post on my Instagram stories at Megan Mick. When we have like a big station event, like help me find an outfit. And it's really funny when I fall in love with something that everybody does not love.

Would you like my opinion on this? Please. I'll give it to you at 740. No, there was a black dress that was towards the end that I really, really liked.

The halter one?

What is a halter? I don't know.

The one that goes around my neck?

I kind of liked it. Yeah. That one and another black one, too. I really liked. I got to tell you, they all looked extremely flattering on you. It's one of those ones where you're trying them on, and I'm like, my gosh, look at that, man. And by the way, shout out to Megan on what an amazing year transformation you've had.

Shout out to Megan. Thank you. But for my own credit, it's been much longer. Has it? Oh, my God, yeah. It's been close to two now. Because you want to know what's kind of sad but true? There was a jingle ball that we did two years ago where I was, like, looking at photos of it, and I went, oh, something really needs to change. It was actually a jingle ball that kind of snapped me into it. Yeah, that white sparkly outfit. With the gray. Yeah. And the sparkle pants. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That was the one where I was like, oh, God, we got to do something. I love that outfit, too. You know what? Yeah.

Good for you. And honestly, I have had outfits like that or, you know, things, clothes that I've worn where I'm like, oh, my God, look at me. I have a section in my phone called the fat pictures. I use that still as inspiration from time to time just to look at it.

And it was last year's Jingle Ball that I got super frustrated because, remember, Shannon, I had lost weight and nobody had noticed. And I was like, I've been working on this for like six months and nobody said anything.

Well, you look fantastic.

Thank you. I really appreciate it.

What do you have in the rest of the dirty? I know I gave you that broken break. I mean, you're not going to get that anywhere else. Come on, guys. So Eminem's mom, Debbie Nelson, died Monday night from complications of advanced lung cancer. She was just 69 years old. And their relationship was always very interesting because Eminem provided a lot of financial support to his mom, but really hadn't been in contact with her for several years. This is from an interview that he did a while ago with BET.

I mean, at the end of the day, she's my mother, and I love her because she's my mother. I mean, even though we don't really speak, you know what I mean? She is my mother. I do love her, and I think I got a better understanding of what she was going through or what she may be going through. You know what I mean? Now that when I see myself and how I actually became, you know what I mean? I think there's a little compassion factor that goes with that.

Their relationship seemed to grow warmer over time, but Debbie made it very well known, very clear that she was not happy with his lyrics about her, nor was she happy about how she was treated by his fans.

When you can't go to the mob for being spin on and being called, you know, you disgusting pig, it's sad because people are passing judgment by listening to Marshall songs.

You know that this is a song that he is not a fan of anymore. He actually is asked that the song not be played. Yeah. I think it's because of all the pain that he probably realizes that it brought to him and to his mom. So it's interesting. It is a great song.

Beyonce was announced as Billboard's greatest pop star of the 21st century. And of course, they had to do some explaining because the Swifties were not happy about this. billboard just said while taylor is the century's biggest pop star by the numbers from album sales to streams to touring dominance our editorial staff has chosen beyonce as our number one greatest pop star of the century based on her full 25 years of influence evolution and impact what do you guys

think i was about to ask you do anybody got a problem with this uh swifties i know i think that

they should have tied them are you serious yeah 100 why yes y'all gotta get taylor wrong she's

on like the top tier michael jackson level right now i'm not saying beyonce's not i i don't i don't

know y'all gotta get taylor draws out your mouth beyonce been running this game since the 90s bro she did it when she was a trio now she's solo correct she done stood the test of times most nominated grammy artist in history who writes the music and who doesn't i ain't trying to hear all that. Taylor, you still got to perform it. Taylor just got popping for like the last 10 years.

Give her some time. Yes, she can dance. She can sing. She can do so many different styles. I think Taylor Swift is very talented. Do not get me wrong, but I don't think there is a comparable level when it comes to voice talent and performing talent.

I'm not giving my two cents on this because I know what I'm going to say. Come on. Be brave about it. Speaking. She hates Beyonce. I don't hate Beyonce. I just think that she is, she's overblown. I'm not arguing that she's not talented. I just, I'm not, I'm not a super fan. Speaking of Taylor Swift, sources of mine say she is absolutely exhausted after being on the go for nearly two years straight, performing more than 150 shows since March of last year. So she is obviously very excited for some relaxation and downtime. What is she going to do on her time off? She reportedly plans to spend most of it in Kansas City with Travis. She's going to hibernate with him for a while and do, quote, unquote, normal couple things. However, I'm also hearing from a couple of people that she's already conceptualizing her next album and potential tour. So that's in the works.

So that she can put the explanation point at the end of this, that she's better than Beyonce. Don't these guys ever just say, I made enough money, I want to just sit back and relax a little bit?

No. No? But I do like that the fans are fighting. But when their movie premieres came out, because they both had their movies of their concerts, that they went to each other's premieres. That was very cool.

And Leslie Rover has released its annual top pet names list. And trending right now for pets is food names. It's a three-way tie between calzone, chive, and provolone. All names that are up 211% compared to last year. Poutine, Babybel, and pastrami are also popular this year, as well as tortilla, cauliflower, and pork chop, which I love. Cat parents are opting to name their pets after beverages like yerba, champagne, pop, cola, martini, soda, cider, and boba. Overall, the number, I know, that's a cute one. The number one most popular male dog name in 2024 is Charlie. It's my little Charlie's 15th.

Happy birthday, Charlie.

Milo is the most popular cat name for female pets. Luna remains the number one most popular name for both dogs and cats.

All these incredible options, and KP landed on Bubba. I love Bubba.

For all of today's Dirty Catch-Up on the podcast, on the free iHeartRadio app or mojointhemorning.com.

Miss something in the dirty on the 30? Listen on our podcast now at mojointhemorning.com. Your call may be monitored or recorded.

All right. Megan's got her dress. I think I know what I'm wearing. Maybe let's see if Michelle needs to go out and get herself something nice because she's going to Jingle Ball. Congratulations, Michelle.

Thank you.

Michelle, Michelle, have we ever talked to you, Michelle?

You have, long time ago. I love it. Long time ago.

So, long time listener, second time caller. We appreciate that.

Yes. Yes.

And winner, congratulations to you.

Thank you so much. I've been calling every single day.

And you got through. Were you ever any other number?

Was I ever any other number?

Yeah, like when you called before.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

So you were.

Yeah, I got hung up on, yeah.

Uh-oh. So you weren't 95 until today. I always wonder when people are real persistent on this, because we announced Jingle Ball a while ago, and I know a lot of people have been playing and trying to win. I always wonder, like, how close do you get? Like, you know, have you been 94? You know what I mean? Like, could you imagine being 94 a bunch of times? Like, that would stink.

It's horrible.

I would actually change my station to whatever's on 94 right now if I was 94 a whole bunch of times. Because then you got the luck of the 94. So not that it makes any sense. I don't think there is anything on 94. Michelle just wants her tickets. Just give me my goddamn tickets. That's pretty much what you're saying right now, aren't you, Michelle?

I'm just thankful.

All right. Well, hang on. I'm thankful for you. Thanks for listening. Have a great time. Who are you most excited to see?

Teddy Swims.

Give her some Teddy Swims. We will. Congrats. And thanks to Planet Fitness, Family Heating, Cooling, and Electrical, Kroger, and Capital One for sponsoring our Jingle Ball, which is Tuesday night.

Drew Barrymore bestowed Ariana Grande with the authentic Glinda Wand from the original Wizard of Oz. Who is the actress who played the original Dorothy in the movie? See if I can get this one right. Judy Garland. Yes. Winner. Who was the original Glinda? Do we know if she's even wrong?

Oh, I don't know, but there's a meme going on the internet right now. Wow, that made me... On the internet, if you go onto the World Wide Web, there's a video of her while Judy Garland is singing looking really pissed, and it's very funny.

Really?

Yes.

She is a beautiful woman, I'm sure. I've seen the black and white and colored version of The Wizard of Oz. But Ariana Grande is amazing, isn't she?

Didn't all those people get sick? Perfection, yes. Like her with all the green paint and then. Yes. I had to get recasted. I did not know that. He was allergic to it, yeah.

Wow, I did not know that. All right, congratulations to Dallas on six. Yeah, Dallas. Maria, you got a $50 Kroger gift card. They're the sponsor this week, and we love Kroger. And by the way, in the Detroit area, if you go to Kroger, go look in the deli section for the Jingle Ball, a little announcement, and you have a chance to win Jingle Ball tickets to Tuesday's Jingle Ball.

Are you kidding me? How does this happen? Is my son setting me up on this?

Your son set you up, but you know what? He just won you a prize.

It was worth us bothering you feeding your squirrels. I just know we're going to play. I'm just playing with my squirrels from here on out. I'm sorry that I said bad words.

No.

Oh, no, no, that's okay. We knew you were going to. You did way better than I thought you were going to, Mom. I'm not even going to lie to you. Yeah. By the way, what kind of animals do you have? What do we have then? She doesn't have them. These are wild, just so you know. Oh, my God. She's outside of the park yard right now, I guarantee you.

Jesus.

Oh, my God.

I live in the city, and I have deer. I love it.

Oh, my God.

We had a deer in the backyard. What did you guys say? A ten-pointer?

Wow! Wait a second. All the deer have left northern Michigan, and they are now hanging out in the city in your backyard because they know they're not going to get shot. They used to live in the back corner, 100%. Unreal. Mom, we got a prize for you. Congratulations. Give it up for me. A great job there by Chris. Thank you.

We're going to hang out and see how things are going there. All right, it's Mojo in the morning show. Phone number is 844-MOJO-LIVE, 844-665-6548. Text is 95500 to get through to us. And so much stuff going on. Oh, my God. I got to tell you guys real quick. I got a couple things. I was out late last night, so I'm a little tired. I had a sheriff's meeting. So I'm on this thing with the Oakland County sheriffs. And it's really a cool honor that Sheriff Bouchard gives me an opportunity to do this. but there's a group of us that are on the scene where he kind of goes through like things are happening in the, in Oakland County. And, um, they, we talked about the splash pad shooting that took place in June and they actually showed us, you know, how they were able to do this really cool thing where they, they do a nine one one call live. So if somebody is calling in nine one one, the sheriff's units in Oakland County can hear the nine one one call. So while the operator is getting all the information down, even before they send it out to you, they are going to the location. And so they showed us literally the sergeant that was the first at the splash pad there and probably saved lives because it was one of the first responders to be there to save lives and how they were able to catch the guy with, you know, his gun serial number and all the rest of that stuff. But then they started talking about how there was robberies in Bloomfield Hills and Nova in the last week from those guys. It's not even a gang. It's a ring. it's a ring has anybody been arrested though they've yeah they've already arrested some of them he was talking about that and he was talking about the guys that got some of the guys that got arrested on the first set of robberies didn't get very much punishment too it was like craziness i'm like i'm listening to this whole thing being dumbfounded by it because sometimes you don't see this stuff in the news and so being on this thing was really is really kind of a cool uh you know situation for me to be able to uh to do

this. And so I was like really happy that he gave me this opportunity. And then it came around to me asking him questions afterwards. And so I got a little one-on-one time with Sheriff Bouchard. And I said to him, I go, Sheriff, I have to ask you a question that I think most of us deal with. He says, yeah. And I said, do you think this is robbery? Today I was at Costco and I was, it all starts at Costco. And while I was at Costco and I was hanging out there, I was returning a couple of things that Chelsea had me buy that she thought we were going to need for Thanksgiving. It was a couple chairs and things like that that we just didn't use because we needed extra chairs for family and stuff that were in visiting. The guy that was in front of me at the line of Costco was returning a half pumpkin pie and a half apple pie. I have

heard of people doing this but I have never

seen it with my own kids. And he claims and then it's funny because I asked the guy at Costco and he told me this, which I thought it was pretty wild. I said to the, to the guy, go, that's crazy. I said, this guy's how many days from Thanksgiving are we? We're almost a week. You know what I mean? Like it's crazy. And I said, is that the craziest? He goes, no, we've had people return like chicken carcasses and stuff like that. It's craziness. Yes. So he's, so we're, so we're, we're discussing this and having this conversation about this while this guy's, you know, returning his half pumpkin pie and half apple pie and then the guy says well there was some kind of a thing with it with the uh the pumpkin pies this year supposedly they put too much salt in the mix or something i don't know

what the story was gotta get you a patty pot but he still had to try but he had you

like you know how you cut them in triangles like the pies this guy probably had three pieces left like a good size pieces like that's on each of these pies so obviously his family ate both of the freaking pies so i wanted to ask this question 844 mojo live 844-665-6548 if you are a person that works in retail and i know we love you guys you guys have to deal with a lot of crap and the other day megan was you know shouting out the guy that basically hated his job i think this is a part where you'll love your job because it's one of those stories that you'll be able to tell everybody what is the craziest thing somebody tried to return to the store and you'll have to explain to me, if you were that person that was returning this stuff, how do you think you're getting away with that? Like the people that try to return TVs after Super Bowl Sunday?

You can't even do that anymore. They have so many rules against that. I mean, I worked in retail at a number of different stores. And my favorite was when people would come in and try to return something that very clearly did not come from the store. They're adamant that they got it here. Yeah. And I'm like, but I've worked here for five years. I know we don't sell anything like this. And they will argue and argue and argue to get something out of you.

Dog, I went to Target one time. And I had to return something that I bought the day before. And when I walked up to the counter, this lady has some, like, old shoes in her hand. And they were kind of talking. And she said, a lady just returned on. These shoes were so old, bro. It looked like she had walked with Martin Luther King Jr.

Stop it.

Stop it. It was like she turned it over and showed me the soles. This lady was dancing all night long. I was like, there's no way you're trying to turn it.

Were they adult shoes or were they kids? Adult shoes. Oh, okay, because you know that you can return Target brand Cat and Jack stuff for a year after you buy it. Really? Used. What? Yes. Where are you finding these rules? Yeah, you can.

All right, 844-MOJO-LIVE, 844-665-6548. Hey, what's up, Diane? Welcome to the show. How you doing?

I'm good. How are you?

Good. I wanted to hear some of the craziest things that people have returned. Did you work customer service?

I used to work at Meyers. Yeah, I worked at the deli at Meyers.

Yeah.

And we had this lady. She had bought some salami one time, and I remember serving her because she wanted it cut thin enough to be able to read your newspaper.

That's what she said.

And you know, salami, it sticks together.

Yeah.

Oh, my God. Something crazy. So a few days later, she brings it back. Tells us, well, it's sticking together. Well, of course it's sticking together. And she told the manager she left it in the car for three days.

Oh, no. It had to smell horrible.

And the manager still let her return it. I was like, I was fuming. I couldn't believe that she let her return it.

Oh, that's nuts. It's crazy. Thin enough so I can read. I love that. She still remembers what she said. What's happening, Felicia? Felicia, how you doing?

Good. How are you?

We're doing great. What did you see somebody returning?

At Costco, I was in line, and I saw someone with four trees that they dug up from their yard. What? Stop it right now.

Yo, I know times are hard. What was wrong with them?

Everyone was laughing.

Oh, my God. That takes a lot of effort. I mean, you must really want something for free if you're doing that. What's up, Mike? How you doing?

Doing good, Mojo. So when I worked at Kohl's, I did customer service, and I had an elderly woman bring in a Teflon pots and pans set with a receipt from 1985. Stop.

that had a lifetime warranty.

And we literally had to get the store manager and we had to calculate inflation in 1985. This is amazing. And we had to give her a comparable set of pots and pans since obviously those ones weren't made anymore. Oh, my God. That's true. That is amazing. And we honored the warranty.

I love that. Give it up for calls. That's awesome. Yeah, they're good. That's a commercial. They get it. That's so smart. Oh, my God. Erin, this is disgusting. What did the person bring in to return?

Yes, I was working at Home Depot, and a guy returned a used toilet snake.

Oh, no. That's absolutely disgusting.

Snake. No, no, no.

Did it have any duty, any remnants of duty on it?

I honestly don't remember. I just remember I wasn't touching it.

You get your money back for stuff like that. Crystal, what did somebody return to your store?

So I was working for Home Depot, and they returned a used garbage disposal.

Like the actual garbage disposal.

How do you get that out? Yep. That's exactly what I was doing. I guess they were replacing it, and it still had all the food in it. That is sick.

Oh, jeez. At least clean it. That makes me want to vomit. Yeah. You know what, though? If it's not working, it's not working. Timothy, this is wild. Timothy worked at a Sunoco gas station. And what did somebody try to return to you?

Hey, everybody. Somebody tried to return some used condoms. Used condoms?

No, you lie. How were they packaged?

He had the old package. He had the package still with him, the wrapper. And then he had it, like, strung up. And I was like, man, what are you doing? Did you bring condoms? You lie.

By the way, you guys sell condoms at Sunoco. That's cool. I kind of like that. I like that. Pumping down. What's going on? How you doing, Jessica? Are you there?

Yes, hello. I'm here.

Hey, Jessica, what did somebody try to return to you?

A box of Plan B pills.

Oh, boy. Wow. Did they have, like, any missing at all?

Oh, yes. They were all gone. So, wait. She only needed one?

Are you telling me that it didn't work? She had a baby?

No. Plan B are expensive.

They like $40. Good morning, after.

How are you returning an empty box? A little super glue?

How about this one? Somebody just text in. Can't call you guys. Work at a store. Somebody returned a real Christmas tree to us after Christmas. They said that the needles didn't stay up for the entire holiday. That's bold. That is really bold. Oh, and then, Lucia, what store was it that you worked at?

Hi, a bodysuit that was worn without any undies.

Oh! Wait, what store was this?

It starts with an A, and it's at Somerset Mall. Orixie. Orixie.

Oh, my God.

That's a great store, too.

Wow. And did they say that it just didn't fit them right, or what was it?

Oh, I don't know what the excuse was, but you can't deny that.

Oh, that's gross.

It was worn.

Hey, happy holidays. Have a great one.

You merry Christmas.

Mojo in the Morning's Dirty on the 30

Shannon, what you got in this hour's Dirty on the 30

Well, Serena Carpenter is finding herself single She and actor Barry Keegan

have broken up after about a year of dating and if you follow Dumois which is like the best

gossip site ever in the whole entire world. I think that you are the best gossip site thank you.

Well thank you. I do get a lot of my stuff from her though because she she gets it before anybody else but you knew that this was kind of on the horizon that there was some trouble in paradise And yeah, he cheated. He cheated with that real cute blonde influencer, Brecky Hill. Now, Sabrina and Barry want you to believe they're just both career focused right now and are taking a little break. But the real story is Sabrina found out that he was hooking up with someone else. Oh, he's got a type. And that was that. Yeah. She looks like Sabrina.

How does this guy get these girls?

Yep. Yeah, because I don't. He's not a good looking guy. I think he's good looking. I don't think he's that great looking. And I know a lot of people disagree with me, but. Yeah, I think he's just not.

I mean, I'm not mad with who he cheated with, though. If you're going to cheat, go that way. You know what? You are a bad man. I wouldn't say. I thought you honestly were a good boy. No, listen. Don't cheat on her. But if you're going to cheat on her, then let it be with her.

Do you ever notice, though, that there are some people that cheat ugly? Like, they'll cheat and you'll be like, oh, you're cheating with that.

Well, I mean, they say men move at the speed of opportunity. Okay. There's that. Break your code, though.

a south carolina mom are you are you still looking at her social media page nine he's looking at her

i'm looking at barry we're just scrolling through all their photos a south carolina mom is suing

mattel over that wicked porn site mix-up the mom's name is holly rickinson and she has now what is her name holly rickinson oh i said wickinson no she filed a class action lawsuit in california yesterday after purchasing a doll inspired by the movie and we did we told you the story a couple of weeks ago what happened upon opening the doll holly's daughter noticed the website on the packaging which i call bs on this because when my child opens any sort of packaging for a toy the first thing they do is throw away the packaging okay this mom's an opportunist so she says her daughter noticed the website www.wicked.com used an iphone to go to that website i also call bs on that but instead of seeing images pertaining to the movie this girl's phone was spammed with all sorts of hardcore porn images and movies because, as we know, it was the wrong website. Mattel apologized for the error last month and advised customers, throw away the packaging or scribble out that incorrect link if you're gifting the item. Well, that wasn't enough for Holly and her legal team who say in their lawsuit that Mattel didn't offer any sort of refund were consumers who had already purchased the dolls. She also claims that she and her daughter suffered emotional distress

because of what happened. I always feel like these class action lawsuit people are people that literally just surf the internet looking for stories to do class action lawsuits. Correct.

Do you think that that website, though, has a full, like, Wicked movie

themed? Probably not. I don't know. I'm not going to go to it, but they probably do. If they're smart, they would. While we're talking Wicked, did you see that Drew Barrymore gifted Ariana Grande with the original Glinda Wand from the movie. Like the 1939 movie. Are you sure?

I thought she let her see it.

Okay, well you're ruining the story.

Play the audio. Jesus.

I have something that's extremely exciting and special. It's actually it was owned by the Smithsonian and now it's owned in private hands but for the purposes of our sit down they loaned it to us. Um, bring out the original Glinda wand, please I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. Oh, she's got the Linda voice going on How did you pull this off? I have to give credit to everyone on this show That is the original one.

So to your point, Mojo, she doesn't get to keep it, but it's still pretty cool that she even got to hold it. I don't know. I didn't know the Smithsonian did that.

I'm suing like that mom in South Carolina.

They've got to be promoting that they have it so people go and visit the Smithsonian. I knew they had the ruby slippers. I've seen the ruby slippers, but I didn't know they had the bond.

Have you guys ever been, by the way? Yeah.

No, and I really want to go. It's very cool.

So, by the way, you want a great trip, get in the car, go to D.C. You don't pay for any of their museums and stuff.

Yeah, so I've never been to D.C., and it's high on my to-do list.

And actually, it's a great place to go to because it doesn't get as cold there as it does here. So it's a little bit, you know, like we get colder, rather. So it's not a bad place to go if you're looking for a holiday trip.

Do they still have the media? I'm sorry, Kev. Do they still have the media museum?

newspaper one you know i don't know i don't know if i've i've never been that i think the monuments and stuff are just so cool like it is really cool to go yeah see it and lastly piers morgan

is once again being forced to deny that he is the pigeon lady in home alone 2 lost i do this story every year but this year he actually commented himself for years social media has been convinced that he is the pigeon lady in the beloved christmas movie and so i think it was yesterday somebody shared a photo of the pigeon lady who is actually played by an irish Irish actress named Brenda Fricker, but the person wrote, not sure how many acting credits he has, but this is Piers Morgan's finest work. And he actually responded to that post by writing, it's not me. Yes, it is. But it doesn't just like him.

Dressed up as her for Halloween, I am so disappointed in this man. It's right there.

He has no sense of humor. He should just come out dressed. Yeah, it's like dressed up like her. He's so good. With the birds and stuff. For all of today's Dirty, you can catch up on the podcast on the free iHeartRadio app or MojoInTheMorning.com.

We've got a trip to Florida to give away, too, coming up in a second. First, though, Mojo in the Morning, breaking and entering Christmas wish. KP, we ready for a wish this morning?

We are so ready. We are frozen, but we're ready. Rochelle here who wrote the letter and she just told the daughter to pretend poop for the longest time to keep them inside the house, but we're ready.

Okay, so we had a little bit of an issue with the location, but that's okay. Rochelle, we're there. Rochelle, it's a beautiful letter and what an amazing family that so many in the community will know, but probably don't know the struggle that they're going through.

Yeah, no, they definitely They are the type of people who even today are going to be like, we don't need this. Someone else needs it more.

Well, you know what? We're going to make sure that they have the best Christmas ever. So you and KP stay there. Lydia is going to dial them up, and if we don't get an answer, then we'll have you guys run up to the door, okay?

Okay.

All right. Mute your phone there for one sec, KP. And then, Lydia, will you give me a little dial on the phone line there? it's mojo in the morning breaking and entering christmas wish the uh website mojos wish.org is pretty self-explanatory on what you can do to get a wish granted for yourself or somebody that you know so please send us send us send us send us good morning hello hi hello is this susan hi

Yes, it is.

Hi, Susan. It's Mojo from Mojo in the Morning Show.

Hi.

Hi. I would like to tell you that this is probably the busiest time of the morning for a mom with a lot of family. And I appreciate you just answering the phone. But we received a letter about you and your good-looking, great coach husband, Joe, for our Breaking and Entering Christmas Wish program.

Okay.

And I want to have you listen to this letter because it's so beautiful, okay?

Okay. Dear Mojo in the morning, my name is Rochelle, and I would like to nominate my friends Joe and Susan Pugliano for this year's Breaking and Entering Christmas Wish. They have three amazing children, Antoinette, who's 16, Rocco, 12, and Zinni, who's 8. I first met Susan and Joe when our boys started playing football together. Susan and I just so happened to sit next to each other, which quickly became a daily thing, and a fast friendship was made. Joe started coaching when he realized there were some kids who needed extra attention on the team, and now he's the vice president of the organization. He dedicates everything to his team.

single day from July to November and then some to make the youth football organization everything it can be. He constantly finds ways to provide scholarships for children who can't afford to play. Susan drives athletes whenever they don't have a ride and they always have extra snacks and water bottles on hand. Susan works at the local school district and she's everyone's favorite lunch lady. The last few years have hit this family so hard. Joe works at Ford and loves being a dad and provider, but the strike really impacted their family, and it spiraled from there. The family had three family members pass away within a few months. The home they lived in for seven years was covered in mold, making their two youngest children very ill. They need to find a new home. A car broke down, and then Susan started having health issues. These people truly are amazing members of the community, but life just seems to keep pushing them down. Mojo, please consider the Pugliano family this year. I know there have been so many people in our community who have been touched by their friendship and generosity. Sincerely, Rochelle.

The Pugliano family sounds like an amazing family.

They are, yeah. They are amazing.

They're everything. And their kids are...

They're the greatest. Susan, Susan, I don't know if you've ever heard us do this before, this mojo in the morning break and enter Christmas wish.

You make me cry every day.

I have to tell you, we got so many letters about your family. I mean, what Rochelle wrote in her letter about you have touched so many members of your community, that is absolutely true based on what we received on our end. I have to tell you that.

And so you know the story. Not only are we here to give you a tearful eye this morning with that letter, but we're also out in front of your house right now about to break in. And I don't want any Puglianos mad at us.

So, KP. Hello? Good morning! Susan, Joe, Antoinette, Rocco, Vincenzo.

By the way, these names are the greatest names ever. There's a nice Italian family is getting a Christmas wish granted for them this year. And it's all because of the love that you guys give to the community. kp what an awesome family kp you got so much stuff that you're bringing in for these guys

We got Rocco everything that a kid that's 12 years old wants. Nikes, Lions jerseys, footballs, Nintendo Switches. And most of all, we needed to get them new betting and new betting sets. Their home went through such a horrible time with, you know, mold that was going, making them sick. Susan, I feel like, you know what this is always like when we do these breaking in and Christmas wishes? I always feel like it's the grand prize game at the end of The Price is Right when they open up all of the doors. We're opening up all these doors for you guys.

The showcase showdown.

I think it'll be okay. I don't even care. What we're doing.

And wait, Susan, you are the lunch lady too. So every kid in town has been texting us, all the parents are, that they know who you are.

I work at Lakeshore.

Wow.

I love this.

It's amazing that you and your husband, is Joe there, by the way?

He's not, he's at work.

He's at work, he's working at Ford, making him Ford tough.

He's going to come home and be like, what the heck just happened to our house? Somebody on the line, tell him.

So I have phone lines filled and also text lines filled with people that are like, that's my life.

lunch lady, or that's my neighbor, or that's my team mom, that's Coach Joe. Like, they know who you guys are.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God, it's still coming. Oh, yeah.

They're still bringing it in. Rochelle told us about you.

You guys are amazing. Thank you so much. We actually couldn't fit all this stuff in one car, so I had to take my truck today just to get to you guys. This is a lot. Oh, my God.

Rochelle told us so much about you guys that when Lydia and our breaking and entering Christmas wish committee was looking at letters, they were like, this one stood out right up front. We have to grant this wish for this family because you guys are really all about what Christmas is.

Oh, thank you guys so much. Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas. Susan, can I tell you some of the other things? Can I just tell her some of the bigger things? Somewhere in there, and you have to shake down KP for this, is a Kroger gift card, and it is worth hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of dollars. So make sure you get that one, because they want to make sure that your cupboards are full, that you have everything you need for a holiday dinner. There's a $500 check that we wrote you in there to help with whatever you need. Actually, two $500 checks. Okay, two $500 checks. Oh, my goodness. And also, we are gifting you and your family with an all-expenses-paid trip to Kalahari. so you can have a fun little weekend making some memories with each other.

With gas cards.

Oh, my God, you and my daughter crying.

Gas cards from Speedway. We had friends of ours from all kinds of businesses that heard about you guys and said, hey, can we help out? And literally, we're getting text messages right now. Our friends from Supercuts and Mike Sarafa at Supercuts says he wants to make sure you guys never pay for any kind of haircuts ever in your lives. You guys are going to get taken care of.

It's Mojo in the Morning Show. In the spirit of the seasons, Kev says that there is a specific thing to today's date or this time that everybody should know. And he said he learned this from his barber.

yeah this isn't something that i created it isn't something that i even knew existed but i went to the barber shop yesterday because i had to get fresh for the pistons game and my barber first off we had incredible conversation yesterday he was talking about kendrick drake talking all this stuff and then we got on to relationship type topics and christmas is coming up it's the holiday season people are figuring out who they're gonna buy gifts for and he told me this Saturday is the day that you need to either break up with whoever you're gonna break up with or if you're talking to someone and this is like a serious dating situation Saturday is the last day to cut them

off or you have to buy them a christmas gift oh and i didn't know if that was true or what the requirements were for getting someone a gift that you're in the talking stage with okay so if you

are with them past saturday then you're in and you can't do anything about it you got to get a christmas gift uh interesting i you know what's funny is it i did not know that is that the fine print on that apple that's in the terms and conditions i don't know if it's an official

date but i mean it's like right around that time i kind of like it i do too i never thought of it

that way but like that is a great rule is is there any truth to this or does anybody believe that uh there's actually no written rule about this 844 mojo live it's muddy december 7th seems like

a good time though yeah you're either in or you're out yeah you got a few weeks to where the sting of the breakup kind of is over at that point.

By the way, you and your barber should actually do like a TikTok together. A podcast.

I've been telling me the show for three years, bro.

I like the idea. I actually feel like it might be a little bit late. I feel like it might need to be like today is the last

day. Hold on. Look who's on the phone with us right now. You hear? Daryl the barber is on the phone with us.

Hi, Daryl. Hey, how's it going, y'all? It's going good.

Daryl, you do say some controversial stuff, and I love it. But this one here, I want people to debate. Is this true that you say Saturday is the cutoff day? If you're with them past Saturday, you've got to get them a Christmas gift.

Oh, yeah, most definitely, man. So you've got to cut it off early, man.

Are you saying that there's going to be a lot of breakups that are going to be happening these next few days? Because I'm worried about that, too.

Um, I don't really want to throw America under the bus like that, but, uh, yeah, yeah, by Saturday. You know, you got to find something, like anything, man.

You got to get out quick. You say fine. Any reason to break?

That's what I'm doing. I hope you ain't listening, but that's what I'm doing. Oh, my God.

So, Daryl, you're going to dump her before the holidays?

Yeah, I'm, like, working on it.

Okay, is it because you're actually done with the relationship or you just don't feel like spending money on a gift?

It's really the money thing, man. You know, I feel like, you know, Christmas can be, this is going to be our first Christmas. And it can be very expensive. I looked at her closet and I see how she dressed and it looks like I'm going to have to get something really expensive. So I'm like, yeah, I'm going to have to start over like Valentine's Day.

Oh, my God. And then you're just going to get back together with her after Valentine's Day?

Daryl, I love you.

I love you so much, but you're terrible. You're a terrible person.

But think about it, though. Think about it, though. Like, you know, you got to buy yourself some time, and then I feel like January is a good time. You can build up. You know, it's cold outside. She didn't find nobody new quite yet. You got Valentine's Day coming up. And I can go ahead and work my way back in.

844 Mojo Live. Excuse me. 844-665-6548. I want to hear what you have to say about this one. Is there any people that agree or disagree with this? I do have a texter here. I did not know this, but a little bit of history. They said that Pearl Harbor Day is this weekend.

Oh, yes.

I don't know if they're tying it into it or not.

That's a good reason. That's a good reason.

Any reason at all. By the way, what's in her closet that's too expensive for you? What are you seeing in there? Are you seeing a lot of name brands or something?

Man, you know all those bags, man, the Gucci, the Louis Vuitton bag. The Gucci.

Where did you guys meet? Where did you and this girl meet?

You know, we actually met downtown. You know, I was wandering around. I was actually getting rid of somebody else.

Hold on one second. Hold on. Bernadette, what did you want to say? Bernadette.

What's up, guys? Good morning.

Good morning. What's going on, Bernadette?

Please get this guy off the phone. Hang up on him. He is a complete douche face.

Well, I don't know. This is Cavs, Barb, or Daryl. Say hi to him, Bernadette.

Daryl, you're a douchebag. No, no, wait a minute. You're down here from my side. We just met not too long ago. Daryl, there is no excuse. You're doing it because of the money. You are a broke person.

Yeah, you're a barber. You can't go spend some money on Christmas for her?

If it gets a little expensive, then it could be a bad investment.

You know what?

I'm just being caught. You know what?

I'm going to tell you this right now. Daryl, things can get very expensive, okay? You're in a relationship. It's 50-50. There ain't no 25-75. Sometimes you can be 75-75. You're lucky.

Thank you for the call, Bernadette. What's up, Amanda? Hi.

Hi, good morning, guys. Good morning.

Morning, what's happening?

Just going off of what he said, this is why it's really hard to find, like, a good partner because people are not wanting to put in the time, effort, or even sometimes money for somebody that they care about, and they just want to drop them because I don't want to spend money on them.

It's interesting. Amanda, Daryl's treating women, it sounds like, like stocks. Like, he's buying a stock and selling a stock. So he's buying low and selling high. I don't know what he's doing here.

Exactly. Now you want to sit there, Mojo.

Amanda says, Daryl, it's hard. There's not a lot of good guys out there. Where are the good guys at, Daryl?

We are good guys, man. I'm cautious about my money. I'm cautious with my heart.

Yeah, I don't really believe that. You're going to look in your middle closet. So, yeah, no thank you.

All right.

Because of the type of post he has.

Marissa, what did you want to say, Marissa? They cooking you, bro.

He's probably going to just lose her. She's probably going to hook up with somebody else, and then he's going to lose that on the opportunity.

Yeah, and all he had to do was buy her a Gucci wallet, and she'd be good. There you go.

$200 limit. DHK. She'll never know. But I do think that Daryl's got an interesting point here on the cutoff of if you don't go, you know, if you go past this date, you're going to have to end up buying them something. So you have to figure out if you're truly in it for a little bit. Jessica, what's going on?

Hey, how's it going?

Hey, it's going good, Jessica. What's up?

I don't know. I'm tempted to say that she's better off, but like, I also just want to say I'm confused about what happened to just communicating to the person you're dating. Like, if you just started dating, why don't you just say, hey, it's only been a month or whatever. Like, let's just do a nice dinner together for the holidays. Like, let's just do something like casual.

Wait. Honestly, Jessica, do you think a girl's going to be okay with that? Honestly.

No. No way possible. No way possible. No, 100%.

The kind of girls that Daryl dates that he meets downtown are not going to be girls that are going to be into that.

I don't know. I think a nice night out. I think everyone appreciates a nice night out. And I don't see, I mean, if you're dating, you can go on a date and go to a nice dinner.

Yeah, I don't know. D, how do you think that'll go over if you told her that? Let's just go get some food. Man, get out of here. You don't know a woman in America. Yeah. I am a woman in America. I'm happily married.

Secondly, look, Daryl, bro, this is what I'm trying to say to you. I'm trying to say to you, like, you think that it's better to break up and then try to get back together? So, like, you're fully all in on breaking up and then coming back three months after the holidays and being like, I'm sorry, baby. You think that's going to work? Because, like, I don't know.

Just think about it. You're catching her at a vulnerable state. Women love to, you know, cry and be sad. And then, you know, you're kind of, like, leaving her roughly. And then, you know, it's cold out. She's not going out. She's not going to meet nobody. So then I just come back in, you know, make her feel. Yeah. We need an update on this. He's doing crazy. We need an update.

Kev, could you take your hood off? I want to see what kind of haircut he gave you last night. Did he give you a good one? I'm looking good. Hey, Daryl, look out.

You said women love drama. Is that what you said? They love drama.

Daryl.

You can eat reality shows.

They love drama. You're the one creating the drama.

Hold on. Dale, let's get a guy's perspective. Another guy's. Dale, what did you want to say?

I completely agree with Daryl. You don't owe a woman nothing, especially if y'all just starting a date.

So are you going to be leaving your girl this weekend?

Oh, no. I'm married.

Oh, wow.

All right. Thank you, Daryl, by the way. Have a great day, buddy. We appreciate you so much. All right. Shout out to Kev's barber, Daryl.

surprised i couldn't even go in the other i mean i tried to go on black friday and it was absolute

insanity so we didn't even end up going in i went saturday so i i was there and it was nuts i mean it honestly it's gotten to a point where you uh you know that people talk about like the economy and people hurting and stuff but you see people carrying out crazy amounts of bags Yes. Yeah. It's like, you know, that they're running credit cards up, but I have to tell you, so I had the greatest thing happened to me. I got the most primo parking spot ever, but let me tell you the story of what happened to me when I was leaving the mall. So I'm leaving 12 Oaks mall, which is a nice mall here in our area. I love it. I'm walking out of the mall and this lady is driving, not giving the pedestrian right away. Like usually, you know, you gotta be careful if you're in a mall, there's people like just walking right. You can, it seems like walk right out of the mall and people are nine times out of ten gonna stop for you right yeah she wasn't stopping and then she was such a you know uh you know rager she like slammed oh god bless you she slammed slammed on her her horn and then even did the roll down the window and said you gotta watch where you're looking you know and or look where you're watching and walking or

whatever i don't know what the hell she said look what you're watching look where you're watching Well, were you watching something on your phone?

No, I wasn't on my phone at all. I just thought that, I assume people will stop.

Yeah.

I think to myself, I'm like, man, I think people are going to do it, but you got to be really careful. So I get to my car, which was a pretty decent parking spot. I was probably six or seven cars down the line.

Primo.

And who do I see? Watch where you're looking, lady. We'll call her, watch where we're looking, Laura. and i'm like oh how the tides have turned she put her blinker on to alert everybody that this was her spot oh she saw she saw that beautiful parking spot with that gorgeous freshly washed a jack's car wash gordon chevrolet tahoe sitting there shine up that thing in the back got the thing And I look and I'm going, I'm going to take my time.

Good for you.

Milk this. And I stayed inside my car for a little bit. I turned on the seat warmers. I had the radio stations on. Actually, I was listening to iHeart Radio and Christmas Radio on iHeart Radio. No plug for them, but I'll give them a plug. And I'm noticing that she still has her blinker on and she's still staying there. And I'm thinking, I'm not giving her the spot. This woman literally almost tried to take my life and then tried to call me out for it. So I stayed in my parking spot for This Is No Joke. What are Christmas songs? Like two and a half minutes long? Yeah. What is Brenda Lee rocking around the Christmas tree? I can look it up. Will you look it up for me? Yep. Hold on. I stayed in there for Brenda Lee rocking around the Christmas tree. Oh, shoot. Andy Williams, It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year.

Thank you.

And Mariah Carey, Oh, Santa Claus or Oh, Christmas Night.

Oh, so a good seven and a half feet minutes.

Oh, I'm thinking that you add them all together, that was definitely long enough where this woman's gonna leave and she's gonna she's not leaving and it brought up something interesting and you can call me up and you can tell me you know if you've ever had a parking lot road rage story but how long have you ever waited for a parking spot because i'm not gonna lie to you i give this woman props yeah she ended up getting the spot finally because finally i'm like i gotta go yeah but i it got to a point where i'm like this woman this is like you could have parked at

the end and just walked and gotten in there faster she wasn't thinking that though she thought you were going to be a nice person for some people it's a game it's a game to them and honestly i

don't know if you guys ever feel this normally i feel pressure like if i'm in a kroger yeah if i get see somebody looking for my spot i like race to get out of that spot because i feel bad that

i like looking out for people i was at target yesterday and i got one of those primo spots i'm like fourth car in god bless somebody pulled out and i was able to pull right in when i get done handling my business inside of target i'm the guy that while walking to the car i'm flagging other people down let them know that i got a close spot oh you're so nice when i get in i try to get

out asap so speaking of target i was at target yesterday and you know this is the second time i've seen somebody do this where they and it's such an a-hole thing to do where they will park in one of the drive-up spots but park and go in because there's no other close parking so yesterday I saw a lady do it, and she parked and got out and went

into the store. Can I tell you what drives me crazy downtown? People who are too lazy to go to a parking garage, and they park on the queue line, and I'll be sitting in my apartment, and all you hear is the queue going over and over and over and over again until somebody comes back out to their car to move it. It is so annoying!

So they're actually parking and blocking the actual... Yes!

they're like running into starbucks or cvs or they just think oh it's only going to be a minute and it's never a minute because i hear them is that trolley train is that what you're talking about yeah the one that's on the tracks is it woodward trolley train but people that live in other cities they're like what is a q line they don't know that's fair that's very fair so the q line is

like a trolley train a trolley train i guess that is the best way to describe it so quick question

to go back to Target for a second. If you park in the drive-up thing, will they ticket you or no? They don't have, like, Starbucks.

Yesterday was the second time I've seen somebody do it. No, I mean, to this point, about if they'll ticket you. Like, they don't have security or people can write you up.

It's just a really crappy thing to do. It's an a-hole thing.

But to be honest with you, and obviously there are handicapped people that live in the world, but I feel like there are more handicapped spaces than there are handicapped people. You know what? Listen, when I go to Kroger, I promise you, next time you go to Kroger, I guarantee you about 12 of them boys are going to be open.

Can I tell you, though, honestly, with elderly grandfather that Chelsea was, there were so many times where you'd see people that probably would just go to quick, I'm going to park, and then run, and the guy truly needed it. So I don't know. I'm not going to go there because, you know what, I don't want to get the complaint letters.

I didn't say it was right. I'm just saying.

Felipe, are you there? Yeah, I'm here. What's up, buddy?

Hey, what's up? I was thinking, you know how you noticed her car? Yes. Maybe she noticed your car and was like, oh, no, I'm going to win this one.

Oh, that's interesting.

First chicken.

She was like, that's a guy I wanted to run over. Now I'm going to truly get him.

That's right, yeah. That's good. Now I'm really going to get him.

Interesting. I never thought about that. What's up, Emily? Hi.

Good morning. How y'all doing?

We're good. What's going on?

So I went to Michigan State, and everybody that went there knows during the week you cannot park at the dorms. You have to go park far off campus at X-Watt.

Okay.

And so I brought my vehicle back one morning, and there was this little red rattle trap of a vehicle that saw me waiting on the spot because someone was coming out, and he decided he was going to wait, too, and try to race me into my spot. Oh, boy. I was driving a Ford Explorer. We had our battle, and he left minus the bumper.

Oh, my God. He left minus a bumper.

He had to go pick up his bumper, and I had not a scratch on my truck. That's what you get for being a butthole.

Go green.

Go white.

Love you. Thank you. What's up, Mallory? Hi.

Hello, everyday caller, everyday listener. Hi.

Thank you.

I love you. What's up?

So, you know, back in the good days when you would have to wait for the stores to open, we would all go black friday shopping and my uncle would just chauffeur us around so we could hop in and out and he would sit with his car in reverse and his foot on the brake to make people think he was leaving just to mess with them and have the lines build up making them think and he was

just sitting there waiting for us to shop oh my god what what a guy that guy i would be afraid they'd get out and start beating up on my car i would worry about my uncle could handle it he's

a great guy i hate when we looked forward to it i do hate when people sit in those spots forever

and just wait for you what's up uh jack hi hey how's it going good jack what's happening

oh just driving into work uh was listening and i do want to say this i called a couple weeks ago and it was when shannon was talking about um smith and the jeep and the smells and i totally forgot to tell you guys, long time, first time.

All right. You get it now. You get it.

First time, long time. This is Jack.

Jack's on the phone. Jack. Jack, be nimble. Stop it. I'm sorry. Stop it right now.

I'll be quick. Hey!

Dylan! Dylan, you're so cheesy. I love you.

What's going on, buddy?

I had texted in, and, you know, you were a lot nicer than I would have been. I would have waited, and I would have got out of the car, acted like I forgot something, started walking back, and then waited for her to leave and told someone else to come up and park there.

I never would have thought of that, but that is actually great. That would be really funny. Yeah. Oh, that's awesome.

Yeah. Sometimes you have to be ruthless like that.

Thank you for the call, buddy. I appreciate you, Jack. Yep. Thanks, guys. Jack, be nimble.

Jack, be quick. What's up, Emily? Hi. Hi. I was at Somerset on Friday. I was leaving. An old woman followed me to my parking spot. She turned on her blinker. Then a guy came from the other end and turned on his blinker.

I'm like, what are you doing? My daughter and I are in the car, and he says, that's my spot. I talked to the guy. I asked him to have his spot. He said, I can have his spot. i'm like he pulled out he doesn't have a deed to the spot he starts arguing you're stupid so and so be an example to your daughter get out of the spot it's my spot so the driver is begging him to move people all around us are begging him to move he is adamant that he's not going to give us the spot then i nicked him as he's standing in front i'm like move i'm going to hit you he called 9-1-1 he said no he says to the operator i have a parking dispute my daughter and i fall to the ground cracking up laughing she hangs up on him he's we're on speaker he's on speaker by the way he calls again he calls again i nicked him again he said she hit me with her car she says to him we'll be there in 40 minutes i rolled down the window i said since we have 40 minutes. I'm door dashing. Would you like to have lunch in the car? I'm inviting some friends so we can have lunch in the car. You're welcome to sit with us. He says, F you. F you. You're not getting my spot. He's yelling at me. So then the police come up. He says to him, he says, what's going on? Is there an accident? Is there somebody injured? He says, no, no. She took my parking spot the guy told me i can have his spot he's he's going on explaining just move away move over move over here he moves over here says to me move in ma'am go ahead pull in i pull in he starts screaming at the policeman this is sir this is a parking spot nobody owns it it's public get out wow walking by he starts it was the funniest thing, but we had the best laugh, my daughter.

Thank you. So, Macy, what's the story? You're not getting a call back? Yeah, no, I'm not. So you guys have gone out, thought everything was good, and...

Yeah, he took me out. We went to a bar. I really liked him. He called me a car to the bar. He was, like, a gentleman. And, yeah, he hasn't answered my text in a few weeks. So, yeah.

All right, we're going to figure out what's going on. His name is Nico. Nico, what's happening?

Hey.

How you doing, buddy?

I'm okay.

Okay. I know you were talking to our producer, but I would love for you to say hello to Macy, who is on the phone and was kind of wanting to say hi to you. She said that she's had a tough time trying to get a hold of you.

Hey. Yeah, hey.

Her hay was so much nicer than your hay There was not a lot of hayes there Going on there What's going on, Nico? Nico, are you Are you good with Macy? Or are you having Issues with Just time right now? You just don't have time on your hands to be able to do another date?

Well, I mean The issue is she had guys Just like blowing up her phone

How do you know that? well i mean i drove her home and i let her use the car play in the car and like basically i just kept seeing like the same names pop up particularly one name over and over again okay so wait first

off this is interesting you you drove her home but you let her connect her phone to your that's the gentlemanly thing to do that is give me the aux cord by the way that seems more intimate than having sex with a person no yeah you let people put your car your phone in your car place more intimate than your privates um and and what what particularly bothered you about this one guy that

keeps sending her messages well i mean it's just weird but we don't know it's not a brother

a best friend yeah also you you said guys and now you're now that story changed and it's just one

guy well no there was multiple guys but there was one guy that was like a lot okay texting a lot

okay and who is that guy macy um i'm a teacher and those are my students you what you have students that text you yeah they i have students i tutor them and i let them text me about their work so yeah what time i mean why would they text you after 10. because i'm a teacher during the week and then i tutor kids after school and yeah a lot of them are older so i let them text me i don't really understand why that's hard to understand after 10. what night of the week

are you guys going out this was a friday so friday night you got students that are texting you for

help yeah we have a close personal relationship i don't i don't really feel like explaining this

honestly honestly that's a bigger red flag than you texting other people when you first start dating a guy it's like you're on a first date it's less of a red flag to me that you're texting other guys than you are your students at 10 o'clock at night okay like i i don't know what

else there is to say i have students i let them text me okay i honestly don't feel like defending

myself anymore so i'm gonna hang up well no i didn't want you to hang up i i i would get it oh she hung up if that's really the story then but still though it's like we're all we're doing is asking questions and it does seem odd that on a friday night you're getting a bunch of texts from a bunch of your students um but also if if she was getting texts from a bunch of guys doesn't matter i don't know chelsea wants to make a comment what's up chelsea second date update

yeah she would have definitely hung up after she heard this she did that on purpose she 100 percented that was a power play that backfired on her because that was the type of stupid thing that i used to do when i was a annoying high school pick me girl going on a date with some high school boy and trying to make myself look like i was in high demand and oh this guy won't leave me alone all this guy won't leave me alone all these guys want me that's exactly what she was doing and what kind of students does she have that she how she's going to be the next teacher on the news who ends up arrested for uh doing something inappropriate with her students she

did that on purpose 100 i go back to what mojo said a minute ago though you've gone out on one date she might have other guys texting her and guess what that's okay that's allowed there's

nothing wrong with that first date but he was attention to your date on your first date but

she was you're not understanding it was it was just coming up on the screen of the car because her her phone was plugged in it's not like she was sitting there answering them but aren't there

certain settings to where like you can be so i know that i am not turning off my phone if i'm

out with somebody for the first time that phone is staying on absolutely not no i'm talking about

you don't let the car have access to yeah you can actually when it connects you can do it but i don't

know the technical aspects of that oh i wouldn't even know how to do that in the weeds i do think that this i do think it's interesting uh that you use that as your play to let other guys know that other guys are calling but natalie what's up it's mojo on the morning second date update what do

you want to say yeah so i'm definitely someone who is guilty of texting i guess it's a little bit different because i'm in college but i would text my professor really late because i just wasn't aware of what time it is because i'm in college and i'm up late on a friday night though but that's

even different college is different yeah this and i don't know what she teaches did she say

i don't know what's up john hi hey what's going i'm not not saying she's lying about it being students but i do know students don't worry about class work after 10 o'clock on a friday night so

right they trying to get extra credit well yeah i i i think either that I'll see you later.

Is this the greatest story ever she could use as an excuse? Or is she a hell of a teacher? What's going on, Dom? Hi.

She's a hell of a teacher.

She teaches sex. Hey, what's going on?

I'm just confused on how she calls for a second day updating, gets mad, and hangs up.

I know. That's true. She's wanting us to figure out what's going on. That's crazy. But she doesn't like what his reasoning is.

Yeah. Like, I don't get how, like, what's that about?

I don't know.

And how are you mad? Because somebody asked a question about a bunch of people texting you while we're on a date.

Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. That is interesting. We're trying to call her back, and she's not returning any of our calls or messages. But it is.

Because she's embarrassed that she got caught in a lie.

Yeah. It is wild, though, that you let her use your CarPlay, Nico. I'll be honest with you. That is a very personal thing. I would never let anybody. I don't even like Kevin.

I think that wilder that she actually wanted to hook up to it.

Well, that's the wild part. Because it shows everything that's happening on your phone.

I know. Yeah. I would honestly be more embarrassed about the last played songs. That would probably be the one thing I'd be worried about.

For you, yes.

All right, we're going to give you some Jingle Ball tickets.

You know that Jingle Ball is happening on Tuesday. It is the Channel 955 Detroit Jingle Ball starring Jack Harlow, Teddy Swims. Everybody's going crazy for Teddy Swims. Jason Derulo.

No, I had a hat on.

Crazy, bro. Waves are coming back in right now and I'm living for it. Bro, waves never left. Yeah, but I feel like waves are a little bit more popular. You're right. Waves did never leave, but I feel like more and more guys are doing them. I love waves. Y'all hear that, man? That looks so good. Make it like waves, y'all. Get them brushes right. It looks so good. Get the Murray's grease and the Durant.

Let's do the dirty.

Little suit.

More hair talking just a little bit. We'll be right back. Hold on.

Low Joy in the Morning's Dirty on the 30s.

All right, Shannon, what do you got in this hour's Dirty on the 30s?

Well, we got news yesterday after the show that Eminem's mom, Debbie Nelson, had passed away Monday evening from complications related to advanced lung cancer. She was young, 69 years old. And if you're a Marshall fan, you know they did not have the best of relationships. They didn't really talk much as of late, even though he did provide, excuse me, financial support to his mom. This is from a 2011 interview that he did with BET talking about her.

She's my mother, and I love her because she's my mother. I mean, even though we don't really speak, you know what I mean? She is my mother. I do love her, and I think I got a better understanding of what she was going through or what she may be going through. You know what I mean? Now that when I see myself and how I actually became, you know what I mean? I think there's a little compassion factor.

She wrote a book about him, didn't she, at one point? Really?

Hey, can I give condolences? You know, you lose your mom. I don't care what kind of relationship you have. I'm sure there's pain somewhere there. But also Nate, Eminem's brother, who listens to the show. And I know that under good reason, because I've heard from friends that Nate has been listening and heard a couple of things. And I, man, I feel bad. And Haley, obviously, that's your grandma and stuff.

Debbie made it very, very well known that she was not treated very kindly by a lot of Eminem's fans.

When you can't go to the mob for being spit on and being called, you know, you disgusting pig, it's sad. Because people are passing judgment by listening to Marshall songs.

Yeah, and she wasn't happy with a lot of the lyrics of those songs pertaining to him.

He needs to quit demeaning me. He needs to quit, you know, making a tax on me. I mean, you don't do this to your mom. And it is so hard.

Today, something huge is happening in the Supreme Court. It will hear arguments in a landmark case involving access to gender affirming care like puberty blockers and hormone therapy for minors experiencing gender dysmorphia. The case concerns the constitutionality of a Tennessee law that bans this medical care for trans adolescents. Now, if you if you aren't aware of this, half of the states have measures on the books that are similar to Tennessee's.

And advocates for transgender rights are warning if the Supreme Court upholds this ban, it would open the door to state lawmakers to outlaw gender affirming care for adults. So even though the case is they're going to hear arguments today, from my understanding, an actual decision is not expected until like the summer in June.

And the attorney that is going to appear before the Supreme Court is the very first transgendered attorney to ever do that, too.

I did not know that. Drew Taggart of the Chainsmokers announced his engagement to a model named Mary Francesca, sharing some photos and videos from that proposal. They've been dating for more than a year. Which one is he? Congratulations to them.

Which one is Drew? He's not the cheater one, right? You don't know which one he is. Which one is? Drew and what's the other guy?

Another dude named Alex.

Okay, so Drew and Alex.

Nobody knows which one is which. I do. No, you do not. I just told you who's the who. You see them in a Kroger. And you're like, that's Drew.

Is that Drew and Alex? I have a personal experience with them.

Alex was the one that was engaged and then cheated.

If I saw them in Kroger, would they feed me cheesecake? They might. Would I get a little... By the way, can we get an update on that story from you in a couple minutes?

Oh, because there is an update. All right, for sure.

Let's get an update on the Cheesecake Girls at Kroger.

Best story from yesterday's show. If you missed it, check out the podcast. And lastly... Like the Cheesecake at Kroger. a new study by wallet hub has ranked the best places for singles to live oh spoiler alert we're not on here anymore okay so pack up your stuff and move but help but help where researchers compared more than 180 cities across the united states on like various things but the top three cities atlanta las vegas and seattle followed by pittsburgh and tampa i'm kind of surprised chicago didn't make that list same it's usually up there but it didn't make the list this year

Mojo in the morning. More Mojo next. Next.

Number one on the iHeartRadio app. The Mojo in the Morning show. Mojo in the Morning, yes. Man.

I'm miscomplaining about the heat. Shut up. This is Mojo in the Morning.

Mojo in the Morning. I think we need Zach in for this next topic here.

Big Zach.

Megan saw something about Zach that she wanted to notify him about before everybody else noticed it. But it's one of those things where once you notice it, then everybody's like, well, why are you looking? But what's going on, Megan?

So Zach has a really terrible habit. And I'm saying have it at this point because it happens a little often, Zach, where his zipper is down.

It happened this morning too You just forget Well I want to explain myself I'm living in Detroit now It's a little chilly I got chicken legs I'm wearing long johns now So I don't feel the breeze Oh you wear long johns Yeah you don't That's very cute

I was cold the other day in the studio I was like oh it's so cold in here And he lifts up his pants legs and he goes I got the long johns Just start sweating. Oh, hell yeah.

Oh, hell yeah, dude.

Hell yeah, dude. But let me tell you, I love Zach so much, it's not even funny. But I was in here, and all of us were in here, and I was like, Zach, you want to do it? And he was like, yeah, dude. I was like, no, zipper. And he was like, uh-huh. For sure. I was like, zipper, zipper. And he was like, I don't know what you're, and I had to text him and be like, your zipper is down. Please go fix it. That was so loud. I felt like I was in the pants. Wait, hey now. Not sexual, just loud. It was loud. What did she say? But I didn't, as soon as I said it, I was like, was that inappropriate for me to say or helpful?

Why are you looking at his...

Wiener watchers. Yeah. Oh, my God. Love looking at wieners. It's my favorite pastime. Mojo does it in the bathroom. I just do it to every man I pass. um no i have a defense he was wearing mojo's meat monitor it's like the hall monitor i'm here to monitor the meat zach yesterday was wearing black pants and he had it had a gold zipper so it was like

very noticeable you knew what does penis look like it stood out

That's my underwear. By the way, this group, I feel like this group, we'd tell, like, anything.

We have no qualms. Can I tell you what I just witnessed just a second ago?

Hmm.

I just witnessed. And by the way, you don't have to call us up. Is there something to, like, when somebody tells you your zipper's down? Like, should a guy tell a guy to zipper down? I'm never doing that. I don't know. But can I tell you what I just witnessed in the bathroom? So I walk into the bathroom, and the listeners maybe know this. We have only two places you can go to the bathroom unless you're peeing in the sink.

Yeah. Oh, wow.

And the maintenance dude from the building was literally dropped trow in the stall. Yeah, he said he had bad pizza the night before. Bowling alley pizza, he called it. So Kev is there at the urinal, and I'm waiting for a spot. I go to the urinal to go pee, and I zip my zipper down. I go in, and I'm sitting in pee. The building maintenance dude goes over to the thing. And all of a sudden, I heard Kev go, yo, you got to wash your hands longer.

No. Yo, I swear to God. Good for you. Yo, Kev, look. I was going to bring this up as a topic tomorrow because this is like a longer story. But he was in there doodling an hour ago. I know him because it's his shoes. So when I walked and he commented like I was singing a song in there. And he was like, he said something. So when I go back in this, I'm like, damn, you still in here? He's like, you know, bad bowling pizza. He didn't even wash his hands. He wet his hands. Okay, there are, like, four women here who do not wash their hands. That's not all right, bro. It's disgusting. Would you call him out? Then he was like, I just got blood on it. I'm like, you're doing all blood? I swear to God, what just happened? He meant that he was wiping them.

I feel like he needs to go to the doctor. We need to stop talking about it.

No, it wasn't about his, he didn't get the blood from going to the bathroom. He had blood from hurting his hand, fixing something. So he wanted to wash his hands before he washed his hands. So, I don't know. But it was great. The greatest thing ever, though, is, and you guys know how Kev is. Kev is, like, the friendliest guy in the world. Grace is like, yo, man, you've got to wash your hands a little longer than that. I'm getting you a megaphone. You're going to be at a bathroom monitor. What's up, Rebecca? How you doing?

Hey, I was just going to ask Zach if he's trying to let it hang out like Wes did.

That's exactly what I was trying to do.

You know what it could be? And I don't know if this is the thing, Zach. I don't know what kind of jeans you wear, but I have jeans. There are seven jeans. And I can't wear them anymore because my zipper constantly goes down. And I think that I come to the conclusion. I think it was I was at a point where I was wearing too tight of jeans for how large of a man I was. And my zipper automatically. So remember my zipper would always go down You always had your zipper down Are you saying Your dick is unzipping itself No no no What I'm saying is That when you lose weight When you lose weight Your pants can fit you right And they go down So I'm not saying that Zach is heavy But I'm saying that your pants might not be the appropriate one

I am still living in my emo phase Like 2005 so I'm wearing the skinny tight jeans

Oh hell yeah Because mine goes, it's not that I forget to do it when I go to the bathroom. If I'm sitting down here at the control board and then I get up, and the worst is I would sit there and now I can't do it anymore because Shannon before was blocked by all the equipment and stuff. Now I got to be really careful because it would be like showing everything. Yeah. And I don't wear long johns. I don't wear anything. Nothing comes between me and my Calvin Klein.

Do you free ball your jeans or do you wear boxers? No, no, no. I wear boxers. That's a cycle. A lot of guys free ball their jeans. That's so weird to me. I think so too, but I know. I can't. I know. It hurts. It hurts. Yes.

And by the way, I get it for sweatpants. I get it for other things. I mean, even that's a little risky because like, come on guys, there's not much there. But jeans is so uncomfortable. Yes.

I can't do it. I don't understand the people that do it and then they think that they can wear their jeans again the next day. their dirty butt was literally just in them the day before like how do you expect that you can

actually keep wearing those jeans multiple days the reason i don't wear jeans or i wear underwear with my jeans is because i don't want to zip up something that shouldn't be zipped like in that movie like there's something about Mary there's something about that i do not want that at all

that scares me how is this apartment that for those who don't know zach zach is the reason why you guys get all our podcasts all the audio that does on the show this guy is the best executive audio director Zach Martin aka Martian Man but how is it living you're in you live in Hamtramck right uh I actually live in downtown Detroit it's downtown Detroit yeah why did I think that you moved to Hamtramck Highland Park it's like uh one block away from Highland Park okay so a little

sketchy and you like it oh I love it it's great I love being on my own um I'm still getting used to it. What is the part that's getting used to? I don't like my bed. My bed was so cozy back at my sister's house. Wait, you couldn't bring your own bed with you? Well, I didn't want to. I wanted a smaller bed so I could fit more stuff in my room. Oh, okay. What size

bed? Are you on a full size bed? No, I'm on a queen. I have to downsize. It's a huge, okay, I don't mean to be like, whatever. It's a huge difference. It sucks. Why don't you

just get a big bed for the room why don't you just put the i mean it fits but i'd rather have like my guitars and stuff in my room when's the last time you're picking up the guitars and just start

yesterday really yeah play it while you're laying on the bed in your face i could but i don't want

my johnson to touch it you know you're playing the guitar naked yeah in front of everyone yeah

okay what what kind of mattress was it that you had in the other one we're gonna do a gofundme and get you a new mattress that was a king they make good uh they make but is it the mattress

Well, I bought a mattress topper, and the mattress topper kind of sucks.

Well, we talked about this. Yeah. It's science. Your room's too cold.

Yeah, and then it doesn't expand, and then it feels like I'm sleeping on a rock. It's hard because it's cold.

So, wait, your room that you're in is not heated up enough to...

I have two windows, and I think one of them might be a little cracked right now. So, I got to fix that. We got to get you some weather stripping. Are you in a crack house?

Do we know?

It is. Oh, my God.

Let's talk about it. Are you a squatter?

No, no. I pay rent. I pay rent. I live next to a burnt down house and then an abandoned house to my right. Wow. So, like, we call it a McMansion. There are three stories, but it's kind of, like, crappy. Really? We got to fix it up a little bit, but it's cool.

Okay.

I'm excited for you. You guys are going to have a really fun time there. Yeah, thank you.

It's you and who else? Me, my cousin, and then a mutual friend. This is great. Have you brought any girls back to the McMansion? Not yet. I'm still, uh, still embarrassing. I got to fix it up a little more. All right. What are you embarrassed about? The fact that your bed is? No, the first floor bathroom is disgusting. Okay.

It's just gross.

It's like Farmington Hills bathroom that never got washed.

Oh. Okay. Yeah. Don't you guys...

It's like that maintenance man being in there.

Kev, maybe we need to have a guy's night at Zach's place. Yeah. I'm for it. Let's do it. Let's go.

That sounded so like I'm trying to be a team player.

No.

It's going to be fun. Just use the bathroom before I get in. WQI Detroit. WSNX Muskegon Grand Rapids. WVKS Toledo. Three great stations, one stupid show. This is Mojo in the Morning Live.

Do you have any idea who this is, Kathy? No. Kathy, this is the Mojo in the Morning Show, and you were on Five Lies to Tell Your Mom.

Are you kidding me? How does this happen? Is my son setting me up on this?

Your son set you up, but you know what? He just won you a prize.

It was worth us bothering you feeding your squirrels. I just know we're going to play. I'm just playing with my squirrels from here on out.

I'm sorry that I said bad words. No, no, no, that's okay. We knew you were going to.

You did way better than I thought you were going to, Mom. I'm not even going to lie to you. Yeah. By the way, what kind of animals do you have? What do we have then? She doesn't have them. These are wild, just so you know. Oh, my God. I thought you were going to be on right now, I guarantee you. Jesus.

Oh, my God.

I feed the deer. I feed the squirrels. I feed the birds. I feed the bunnies. Okay, Snow White. I love it. Yeah. But I don't want any more babies. Babies, yeah.

By the way, your neighbors must love you. They must really love all the animals that are coming around.

We don't. She has four houses out.

Oh, your neighbors and your mom.

Oh, my God. Wow.

I live in the city, and I have deer. I love it.

Oh, my God.

We had a deer in the backyard. What did you guys say? A ten-pointer?

Wow. Wait a second. All the deer have left northern Michigan, and they are now hanging out in the city in your backyard because they know they're not going to get shot.

Yeah, they used to live in the back corner, 100%.

Unreal. Mom, we got a prize for you. Congratulations. Give it up for a great job there by Chris. Thank you.

It's Mojo in the Morning. Five lies to tell your mama. You better watch out. You better not cry. You better not pout. I'm telling you why. Santa Claus has just arrived in the studio, guys. He kind of looks like a very cool Santa Claus.

Let me just say, yeah, he's kind of like Swag-a-Claus. Like he's got swag. He is the reason why we're able to grant these Christmas wishes every single year because he will go into the Imagine Theater funds, pull a little extra money out of there and then take some great donations off of our popcorn that we buy and pop and all this stuff. By the way, I think my family quite possibly might have funded the entire Imagine Theater the other day. So the funniest is, and Paul, you'll appreciate this. My kids can't decide on, it was like, all right, guys, let's pick a couple of things out. Joe from The Joe Show is like, yeah, we'll take four popcorns. I'm like, there's seven of us. Like, and he wants the big, big buckets, right? He goes, four popcorns, you know, I want, like, you know, three candies, all this stuff. And I'm realizing he's not thinking he's going to be, you know, having to pay for this. He knows dad's still paying for this stuff. So, but it was great. And I love it. Wicked was amazing. Paul Glanz from Imagine is here with us this morning. We love this guy for, God, more than a decade. They've been helping us with our breaking and entering Christmas wish. What happened to my TV screens? Why is it all of a sudden I got, why do I have iHeart on the TV screens? Where did the mojo go on there? Did they screw up my screens? Paul, did you hit a button over there? Try not to. No.

Are you supposed to be in live assist?

Huh?

Are you supposed to be in live assist? Yes. Okay, just double checking.

Why do you think somebody switched it over?

I wanted to make sure nobody didn't.

I think somebody's doing it, but let me get to Paul. Sorry. Paul, what a movie weekend you guys had. Boy, wasn't it awesome? I mean, first off, Wicked wasn't even the biggest movie that you guys had. No, we had Moana, too, as well as Gladiator. It was, you know, triple play is what it was. Moana made so much money at the box office. the kids were just having like first my kids are obsessed with that movie by the way if you haven't taken yours i went to so i was at the the palladium in birmingham and the kids like go dressed up like in either wicked or moana like kids are like people are dressing up for concerts or for for

movies like they do for concerts you know we're all about having fun at imagine you know we think it's great dress up have fun make it an experience that's what we're doing we're trying to give our guest a great experience and by the way my thanks to joe for running up your table he did you know

what he said this is so seriously listen to him this afternoon i bet he'll talk about this on the air because he knows i whenever i talk bad about him he'll mention it on the afternoon show joe goes joe says to me he goes because their signs are all over and it says help mojo mojo in the mornings breaking and entering christmas wish you got him in the elevator you got him you know it's concession stuff and he goes dad we're helping out breaking and entering christmas wish i'm like

you girls how could you say no at that point give me another minute we're recycling your money this

is yeah exactly paul you have been with us for so long i mean so many years you were actually uh not only you know and i know in a second here you're going to give us a nice donation but uh you helped us with a huge donation our our podcast that we did live at the imagining this year which was a huge success i couldn't believe how many people showed up for that thing that thing helped us get to more wishes this year too and earlier wishes oh that's awesome yeah it

was such a privilege for us to host you and your colleagues there mojo uh and it sold out our largest auditorium you know i think we had 400 people there yeah you don't have to call them

colleagues i call them hoodlums but but it was it was it was amazing and people were really into it Like, can we do another one?

Would you house us again? Absolutely. Come on down. We'd love to have that repeated.

Yeah. I have so many questions I want to ask you. One, first off, the AMC group, boo. Boo! Sticky floors. Seats all. Bad seats. Popcorn it. Awful. Cush is all flat. But they, why don't you just buy them? Let's just buy them out right now. Will that happen? No. Well, we're working on one of them.

I know by that deep breath, I knew there was something. Yeah, and if we're doing this, can I just plead my annual plea, a Toledo location?

Yes. Yeah, I'll tell you, that would be terrific. The challenge is just construction costs these days. No, I feel you.

But I'm telling you right now, if you're in Toledo, the closest one is in Woodhaven, go to it. It is worth it. It's amazing. Yes.

I was going to go back to them. They had that whole thing where they were telling people they couldn't sing during Wicked, which 50% of this group in here agrees with, 50% me doesn't. I think you should be able to sing, dance. I think you can do whatever the heck you want to do. Honestly, I sleep during the movies most of the time. Thanks. What was the imagine stance on that?

I think our stance was, as long as it's not disturbing others, do what you got to do. Have fun. Again, it's about having a joyous experience. And we're going to have special sing-along shows. Are you really? See? Yeah. They're coming. You've got to do it on December 25th. It's time. Oh, that's fun. We've got to go. We've got to go.

Should we go, Shan? Yes, that's so fun.

That is so smart. You know what I think is the smartest thing about what Paul does? First off, the videos at the beginning, which Kev, you and Josiah have been featured in.

That was a blessing. Appreciate y'all again. I'm going to find that one. I promise. We couldn't find it in time for your son's outing last week. Yeah, the future. But we're going to get it.

It's such a good one. But the one that's running right now with our good friends Jay and Allison and Chelsea, who right now actually are on their trip with Jay's Juniors.

They're in Disney.

Theirs is so great. Like the production value, and I know Jay puts the effort to it. You guys have been so nice to say, and Nick and you and I went to Andeamos on Nick Thomas, which was great because he never pays for anything usually. But in front of you, he does. but i only am friends with nick because i love his wife karen and that's that's pretty much it but but to but to uh we talked about the mojo in the morning show possibly being featured in one

of those things no way really yes absolutely um in fact i think i tasked you with can you write a script like uh like jay does right and and let's come up with a whole you know yeah

So we got to put it If you have ideas If listeners have ideas Because we want to do this And we want to do it Like for the You know First of the year Or something like that Get it all production Put together But everybody from the show Wouldn't it be kind of fun Oh my gosh

It would be so fun We got to do it We got to do it

All I keep thinking to myself Was wouldn't it be funny If all of a sudden We had us and the Misfits The Mojo of the Morning Misfits Yes And then you got Paul Sitting in there going And turn off your phone This guy's a legend.

You are a legend. And you know what? When I went to see Wicked a couple of weekends ago, I had to take a picture with your cutout. Your cardboard cutout, which is like famous. That's sinful. I had to wait in line to take a photo with you. You, in air quotes.

Well, today we'll do with full figure Paul. Yay!

Was it the kids in Rochester? Which were the high school kids that kidnapped Paul? Right, took them to a concert. He was down. All right, so here's the deal. Breaking entering Christmas wish. We got a wish coming up here in just a little bit. That is amazing. There wasn't a dry eye when we granted it live this morning. Go to mojoswish.org and tell us about what's going on in yours or a family's life, and we would like to help you out. This morning, the guys over at Imagine are here with a check, and let's see what that check is all about. I'm excited. Do we have it? Where's the check? Lydia has it. Or is it a big check? Is it a big check? Can we open it? Oh, Allie's got it. Yeah, let's open that sucker. Oh, it's like you unwrapping me. It's like a real Christmas one. This is Allie. Who's Allie?

I swear to God. My God, you just got so excited. Listen, once you get a taste of that real butter, you're not going back.

Mandy, who is Sheriff Bouchard's number one assistant, her son works at the Palladium, and he won the award for selling the most butter.

Oh, I didn't know it was a competition.

Oh, yeah, he's a butter musician.

Oh, dang it.

Um, I tell, I tell this story to so many people when this man's business was shut down when COVID happened, he still made a donation to break and enter Christmas. I had no money coming in. That's the kind of guy he is. He doesn't do this thing for this. I mean, cause this is, you're going to go to imagine anyway, guys, and no, no offense to channel 955 and iHeartRadio. Imagine theaters is where you go. It's just a great place. You're the, I don't know, you're the Ford Motor Company of movie theaters or something.

Truly the best of the best.

But we love you so much. Thank you for doing this. And we got to take a picture, but you got to stick around for the dirty. So Shannon's got to do the dirty. And if you got any good gossip, you have any good movie gossip? Yeah.

Come on.

I've got.

You think about it. You think about it. What are the big movies that are, because you and Kev were talking during the break about movies during the holidays that are coming out.

Give it to them, Paul. All righty. Well, we've got Mufasa coming out. Yes, sir. Which is a follow-up to The Lion King, which was an incredibly successful film. You know what? We've got a really neat film about Bob Dylan coming out. Oh, I saw that. Yeah. And I'm told it's really outstanding. And so we've got Sonic 3 coming out. Yes, you do. December 20th. So we've got kids' movies. We've got films for young adults and every demographic. We're really fortunate this holiday season to have some good product coming.

God, I love you.

And by the way, I go to the butter thing.

I do olive pop. I love the olive pop.

The olive pop is so good.

It is. It's ridiculously good. Honestly, I think it's tastier than regular popcorn.

Not with the real butter. Tell me, not real butter. I'm with you, Mojo. That's where I sit.

Kevin. By the way, don't you guys want to see how many kernels of popcorn are stuck on Kevin's sweatshirt at the end of a movie. I finish every kernel. Do you eat it all later? I eat it all. And then I take it home. My favorite was the lady. There was a lady at the Palladium. If you were there, we were at the 6 o'clock show on Saturday. The lady who came up for her like seventh time, I think, to refill her big old thing of popcorn, I think she had an entire row full of family members. She comes up there.

And she was, I mean, I'm not kidding you when I say this to you. This woman kept coming back. It was like carrying a bucket, going back, going to a bucket.

She's really getting her money's worth.

You got to buy that refill bucket. Yeah. That refill bucket is where it's at. She had $3 every time you go back.

She would get kicked out of the old country buffet. You haven't? We're doing that. All right. Let's do the dirty, Paul. Then we'll get a picture. And everybody's in it. So we got to get a nice picture for our social media. Jingle Ball tickets, 844-MOJO-LIVE, 844-665-6548. 95th caller, you're going to win tickets to go to our Jingle Ball on Tuesday night. Jack Harlow, Teddy Swims, and more.

Mojo in the Morning's Dirty on the 30.

All right, Shannon, what do you got in this hour's Dirty on the 30 to kind of wrap us up this morning?

Well, they are wrapped up. That was the greatest transition. Sabrina Carpenter and Barry Keegan are no more. They have broken up after about a year of dating what? do we think that domingo finally has a shot with sabrina carpenter i mean i don't i i don't know i he did her dirty by the way so if you heard the the statement or if you read the statement that they are just both career focused and they want to take a little break no the real story is that he cheated with the girl that kevin is now obsessed with that cute blonde influencer brecky hill sabrina found out and that way it was done come on domingo that was that a former bodyguard of oj simpson is claiming that he has a recording of the late football star confessing to the murders of nicole brown simpson and ron goldman but please say no there is no evidence of a confession so two different stories going around here if you happen to come across them today of officers, excuse me, in Minnesota seized multiple thumb drives from Iraq Avelli, who is who was Nicole's former bodyguard. The documents say that Bloomington police arrested him in 2022 when they executed a search warrant of his home to collect evidence, which included this green backpack with these thumb drives inside. Yesterday, the LAPD came forward to say the city of Bloomington, Minnesota Police Department examined the drives in question and determined they contain nothing of evidentiary value. The LAPD has never listened to or been in possession of these drives. So no confession by OJ Simpson. Not only was there no confession, there was actually no OJ at all on any of them. It was just the bodyguard talking to himself. By the way, Kev groans all the time

about this.

He does. Leave him. That man is... OJ. OJ didn't do it. He was acquitted. The glove didn't fit and he's passed away. Leave this man alone. Let him rest in peace. Why are you trying to bring up imaginary tapes?

All right, let me ask you this question. Would you stay overnight at OJ's house with all his steak knives out?

Yeah.

You would? Why not? You'd have no problem. I would have him hide the steak knives.

Because you weren't married to him, is that why?

OJ didn't do it.

Hey, South Carolina mom is suing Mattel over that. wicked porn site mix up the mom's name is holly rickinson and she just filed a class action lawsuit yesterday after purchasing a doll inspired by the movie and you probably heard us talking about this a couple of weeks ago there was a website on the packaging it was wicked.com well wicked.com she this woman claims that her daughter immediately went to the website using her iphone which i call bs on um and instead of seeing images pertaining to the movie the little girl's phone was spammed with all sorts of porn images and movies Mattel did apologize for the error last month they said throw out the packaging or just scribble out that website but that was not enough for this mom who says in her complaint that Mattel didn't offer a refund for any consumers who had already purchased the dolls she also claims that her daughter is suffering from some emotional distress from yeah she's not whatever it is that she saw she's looking for some money yeah she

That story was everywhere.

You knew if you were giving it to your kids. Don't wrap up until the end

because Rhonda's got a couple breaking lion stories for us.

Can I say one more thing too?

Yeah.

Can I promote another holiday movie that I think is a big deal? 248 text with us and remind us. You've got to go to Imagine and see it. There is that movie about the Flint boxer Clarissa Shields coming out that I really want to see. I saw the trailer for it when I saw a movie I had Imagine a couple of days ago. And it looks incredible. So, sorry, local story.

And lastly, a Target customer is going viral after accusing Target self-checkouts of snitching on her when she exceeded the 10-item limit. Which I didn't even know that they had. But on TikTok, there's this woman named Sandra who is describing what happened. And she says the machine pulled on her.

Oh, hold on. I got to play the clip, right?

Yes, you do.

How you doing, Paul? You all right? Yeah. I'm good. Hold on one second. Here we go.

Here we go. Today.

there was a line at all registers so and the self checkouts were empty so i was like you know what i'm just gonna go ahead and self check out i had like about 15 items maybe i don't know maybe more but um i for sure didn't have 20 um so anyway i was scanning things you know and i was trying to hurry up before they told me anything well no need to hurry up no need to get caught because the freaking machine snitched on me once i scanned the 11th item i went and i was just like Like, I jumped.

That's crazy. I never knew that.

It doesn't. It doesn't?

I'm not going to show my phaser ever again.

Yeah. Well, a Target's Post person came out to say, our self-checkout machines do not trigger an alert if more than 10 items are scanned. You can scan any amount of items on those self-checkouts. So basically, the girl's a liar. She's a girl, really. Do you know what happened to me once at a different store, though? What?

Like, an employee had to come unlock it because I scanned too many items in the self-checkout. Oh, really? Yeah.

Okay, so we got some Lion stories. Tomorrow, you know, the Lions are playing on Thursday Night Football. So they get national television Thursday Night Football, right?

It'll be on Fox. It is on Fox? It's on Prime, but Fox will carry it.

Okay, so Rhonda's in from the iHeartRadio Sports Department.

Shout out to Rhonda. What happened to your Pistons last night?

You want to go there? Huh? Sure. All right, let's go. Let's do that.

They gave up too many three-pointers.

That's what happened. But, Rhonda, what's the big news? So tomorrow, if we win this game?

We know the Lions are going to the playoffs. Come on now. But if they beat the Packers, they clinch a playoffs.

Wow, this would be the earliest ever, right?

For the second straight year, for the first time since in the 90s.

Wow. Did you also hear the story about if the Lions win the Super Bowl, Vegas is going to lose its ass. They're saying that Vegas right now did not think that the Lions were going to win the Super Bowl so much that they didn't put the odds in the right way. They say that so many people have bet that if the Lions win the Super Bowl, there's going to be some people having some problems paying out some bets.

Well, right, because after they won on Thanksgiving, I think they came out with they're the betting favorite now, and they weren't prior to that.

And the craziest is they're hoping, I never knew this, but Vegas is hoping that Buffalo wins because there's the least amount of people that have picked Buffalo to.

Well, because Buffalo never win. They get there, but, you know, they get to the big dance, but they, you know.

Yeah. Kevin and I are going to the game tomorrow night. We got invited by George over at Six Salon. We're going to the game. So while you're sitting up in that press box there, is that night? Do they serve, like, good food up there? Yeah. Do they? Yeah. Does Brad Galley actually work, or does he just sit there and just enjoy the free chicken fingers and stuff?

Both. Okay. Both.

All right.

Well, get us some good audio to play on Friday morning.

Oh, I always do.

I know you do. We love it. Back to you, Shannon. Back to you.

Hey, for all of today's Dirty, whatever you missed, you can catch up on the podcast on the free iHeartRadio app or MojoInTheMorning.com. All right.

Paul Glanz from Imagine was just telling me something. Actually, Paul, you're still here, so grab one of those mics there. If you don't have tickets to the Lions game tomorrow night and you would like to go and maybe even make a wager um you guys have a perfect option for everybody we sure do if you

don't have tickets to watch it live come to uh imagine royal oak where we've got the caesar sports lounge powered by imagine and we're going to be showing that game live and of course you can do your uh mobile betting right there i like it we've got some really it's vegas right there in royal oak yeah we got some really robust wi-fi in there so there's no latency you can bet on who's gonna you know score first who's gonna score the next touchdown all that kind of stuff i have never

heard wi-fi described as robust but i love it i love there's no latency whatsoever but wait do

you understand something that if you keep talking about stuff like this you're gonna make kev go broke he he's this guy over here and his gambling addiction

that he's got going on. I don't bet a lot, though. The most I'll bet is $10. Is that it? But $10 over time adds up. It does. I don't like it. And my problem is I put together those crazy 17-leg parlays, the stuff that you have no chance. I'm trying to make a billion dollars off five cents like that. Man, that's going to be a lotto. You know what I mean? Then we're going to open up 10 more matches. We can do it just like that. I'm not talking. I need another fireman. I'm covering the construction costs. It's all on me. Beautiful.

Well, thank you guys again for coming in. I hope you guys enjoyed it. Do you like the new studios? Oh, it's beautiful. Aren't they great? Yeah. Thanks to Bob Pittman for giving us these new things. All right. It's Mojo in the Morning Show, Christmas time, coming around the corner. And it's so funny how kids nowadays are way different than we were when we were kids. I used to pull out the service merchandise catalog. God, that was my favorite. Or JCPenney. Toys R Us.

what was the book the book that it was it was toys r us and now they do like amazon does a book target does a book really um we like the lego book is very popular in our house right now with lucy and smith but i like did you guys used to write your christmas list like your parents or

to santa or whatever you we to to parents i gave it to my parents i was afraid they weren't going to send it because they were going to think santa was going to be mad at me but i would yeah i would write it all down and i would even i would take the pictures that i would cut out of the catalogs and i would put the pictures on there with my little elmer's glue stick i did that as well

okay ransom note so the christmas lists of of present are quite different because and i say this because i got a text from my stepdaughter samantha and it look okay i'm gonna i don't even know what this is called giftful.com i think she made it on an app or something yes she did Look at these Christmas lists now. This is everything that she wants. I can click it. It's already in my cart. Promo code applied. It's got a photo. It's got the link. I mean, they make it so dang easy for you. And one of my girlfriends was saying that her kids make PowerPoints. What? For their Christmas lists. No offense.

No offense.

This is very convenient. It's convenient.

But this is not fun. No offense, Samantha, who I think is a wonderful kid.

She's the best.

Wes and Samantha's mom did a great job raising that kid. But this is a little bit too much.

Look at that. No. That is too much. Go ahead, man. I think I'm agreeing with you. It's the modern version of what we did. No. You sound like, get off, man.

It's not the spirit of the season.

Okay, here's what I don't like about it. It's like a registry. So she can go on and look at the bottom. It says already claimed. So she can see what we've already bought.

I don't like that part of it. But that's the only part that I don't like.

I think that, you know, the whole thing is to see some creativity and not the fact that you know how to say wish list, wish list, wish list in a computer.

I kind of like this. You do? If I'm Santa and I'm the one that's got to coordinate with the elves. See, I'm playing along. Coordinate with the elves to make the things. Because we're not ruining Christmas magic. I know. So what are you talking about? I don't know. She's trying to get you to step right into that doghouse.

Right over your head.

I like the ability to just click and go. If you're writing a list, then I got to go Google it. I got to make sure it's the right thing and not the other brand. If it's already uploaded, then it's just one click and we good.

By the way, I don't know if you know, but the song didn't say he made a list. On an app. Clicked it twice.

Oh, my God. Because that song was made 80 million years ago.

Although, you guys should come to my house because every, like, 20 minutes, I'm like, Mom, how do you spell? I will say, I'm going to be set.

But that's part of the thing. You learn how to spell.

It is part of it. And trust me, I'm soaking it up because I know it's only going to be a few more years before he doesn't care.

And I know this is going to, like, break your mind, but do you know that we don't use typewriters anymore? We use computers?

If it was up to Megan, none of the past would ever be here. No traditions at all. Come on, Megan.

I did a Prezi when I was in high school for my dad.

Oh, jeez.

You did a presentation? It's a Prezi, which is like its own thing.

Top scale PowerPoint.

Yeah, because then you can add animations and stuff to it.

Prezi's fire.

Prezi is good.

Scott Mick, you ruined her. What's up, Becca? Hi.

Hi, good morning. Good morning. So I was very excited. There was a couple weeks ago I was telling my husband. And I was like, kids are never going to experience the catalogs of circling, of what they want. And then you end up circling like half the magazine or catalogs. Yes. But I go to check the mail, and I saw the Amazon catalog, and I got so excited. Yeah. So, Shannon, when you mentioned that, I was like, it got me so excited that my 4-year-old got to go through and circle everything. And again, circled like half.

the catalogs but the point being is he got to do the little experience i was so excited about that

yeah yeah that is good i'm that's smarter jeff bezos to do this to put that all together what's

up shayla hi hi hi um just wanted to shout out my son frank gomez he's a senior at emu he and his friend when they were young teenagers um they're geniuses the friend had a registry um for a drop shipment company. So anytime he would have a birthday party or any holiday where he's expecting gifts, he would hand out registers for not only gifts that he'd want, but then he'd make a cut because he owned the drop shipment company as well.

Oh my God, that's genius.

You guys are smart. Yeah.

Super smart. Super smart.

Yeah. Still though, it's not like writing a letter to Santa Claus and then dropping it into the mailbox and having the North Pole send. I used to love.

We used to get letters back.

Yeah, we did. I know.

We did. If we were good, we were going to be one of the first houses.

You don't leave cookies anymore for Santa Claus and milk for Santa Claus? What do you do? He's lactose intolerant or something?

We for sure are making cookies.

He's gluten-free. What's up, bud? Ellen, hi. Hi.

This first-time caller. Hey! Ho, ho, ho, it's Ellen.

What's going on?

I'm calling about the Gifful app. So I understand where Shannon's coming from about the registry kind of vibe. You can only see that a gift has been claimed if you're not the person who added the gift. So I'm doing that whole thing with my family right now. Oh, okay. So if I put, like, a book on my registry or on my giftful that I really wanted. She can't see. That it's already been claimed by my dad. Oh, okay. So I physically can't see that gifts have been claimed. Okay, that makes me happy.

I did not know that.

How do you give coal on there? Because I think Samantha needs to get some coal, too. We're going to send Shannon's stepdaughter, Samantha, a big old thing of coal from Amazon. I don't even know. You can't just go buy coal. Yeah, you can. From where? I would always go to Lowe's and get the brick charcoal. I didn't expect y'all to have a place like that. WKQ on Detroit. WSNX, Muskegon, Grand Rapids. WVKS Toledo. Three great stations. One stupid show. This is Mojo in the Morning, live. Mojo in the Morning, breaking and entering Christmas wish. KP, we ready for a wish this morning?

We are so ready. We are frozen, but we're ready. I have Michelle here who wrote the letter, and she just told the daughter to pretend poop for the longest time to keep them inside the house, but we're ready.

Okay, so we had a little bit of an issue with the location, but that's okay. Rochelle, we're there. Rochelle, it's a beautiful letter. And what an amazing family that so many in the community will know, but probably don't know the struggle that they're

going through. Yeah, no, they definitely are the type of people who even today are going to be like, we don't need this. Someone else needs it more. Well, you know what? We're going to make

sure that they have the best Christmas ever. So you and KP stay there. Lydia is going to dial them up, and if we don't get an answer, then we'll have you guys run up to the door, okay? Okay. All right. Mute your phone there for one sec, KP, and then Lydia, will you give me a little dial on the phone line there? It's Mojo in the Morning Breaking and Entering Christmas Wish. The website mojoswish.org is pretty self-explanatory on what you can do to get a wish granted for yourself or somebody that you know, so please send us send us send us send us good morning hello hi hello is this susan hi yes it is hi susan it's mojo from mojo in the morning show hi hi i would like to tell you that this is probably the busiest time of the morning for a mom with a lot of family and i appreciate you just answering the phone, but we received a letter about you and your good-looking, great coach husband, Joe, for our Breaking and Entering Christmas Wish program.

Okay.

And I want to have you listen to this letter because it's so beautiful, okay?

Okay. Dear Mojo in the Morning, my name is Rochelle, and I would like to nominate my friends Joe and Susan Pugliano for this year's Breaking and Entering Christmas Wish. They have three amazing children, Antoinette, who's 16, Rocco, 12, and Zinni, who's 8. I first met Susan and Joe when our boys started playing football together. Susan and I just so happened to sit next to each other, which quickly became a daily thing, and a fast friendship was made. Joe started coaching when he realized there were some kids who needed exercise.

extra attention on the team and now he's the vice president of the organization. He dedicates every single day from July to November and then some to make the youth football organization everything it can be. He constantly finds ways to provide scholarships for children who can't afford to play. Susan drives athletes whenever they don't have a ride and they always have extra snacks and water bottles on hand. Susan works at the local school district and she's everyone's favorite lunch lady. The last few years have hit this family so hard. Joe works at Ford and loves being a dad and provider, but the strike really impacted their family, and it spiraled from there. The family had three family members pass away within a few months. The home they lived in for seven years was covered in mold, making their two youngest children very ill. They need to find a new home. A car broke down, and then Susan started having health issues. These people truly are amazing members of the community but life just seems to keep pushing them down mojo please consider the pugliano family this year i know there have been so many people in our community who have been touched by their friendship and generosity sincerely rochelle

the pugliano family sounds like an amazing family

they are yeah they are they're amazing they're everything and their kids are

Susan, I don't know if you've ever heard us do this before, this Mojo in the Morning Break and Enter Christmas Wish.

You make me cry every day. I have to tell you, we got so many letters about your family. I mean, what Rochelle wrote in her letter about you have touched so many members of your community, that is absolutely true based on what we received on our end. I have to tell you that.

And so you know the story. Not only are we here to give you a tearful lie this morning with that letter, but we're also out in front of your house right now about to break in. And I don't want any Puglianos mad at us. So, KP.

Hello? Good morning!

Susan, Joe, Antoinette, Rocco, Vincenzo. By the way, these names are the greatest names ever. There's a nice Italian family is getting a Christmas wish granted for them this year. And it's all because of the love that you guys give to the community. KP, what an awesome family. KP, you got so much stuff that you're bringing in for these guys.

Yes. Oh, my God. It is, it is. Here, we're going to get the feedback. Hang up here and we'll go.

All right, yeah, hang up there.

Here we go. There you go. There's one phone here. So, oh my gosh, we have so much stuff for this family. They have every, every single thing on their Christmas list got bought this year. Lydia went crazy. Yes. We got a full cooking set for mom, bedding set, bunch of new clothes. Joseph's getting some Timberlands, gas cards. What else do we got? We've got to get to the kids here.

Yeah, dad, by the way, dad and mom are getting taken care of with all the stuff they need. They needed, honestly, they were giving up their clothes for their kids to be able to have clothes and other kids to be able to have football.

And I hear Susan went through, and I get this, a body transformation. And that can get really expensive really fast just to clothe yourself. So I got you some new digs.

Oh, my gosh.

Rocco, you're getting a Nintendo Switch. That's awesome.

We got Rocco everything that a kid that's 12 years old wants. nikes lions jerseys footballs nintendo switches and most of all we needed to get them new new betting and new betting sets their home went through such a horrible time with uh you know mold that that was going making them sick um susan oh my god i feel like you know what this is always like when we do these breaking in and christmas wishes i always feel like it's the grand prize game at the end of the the price is right when they open up all of the doors we're opening up all these doors for you guys.

The showcase showdown.

I think it'll be okay if you realize what we're doing.

Wait, Susan, you are the lunch lady too, so every kid in town has been texting us, all the parents are, that they know who you

are. I work at Lakeshore. Wow. Love this. It's amazing

that you and your husband, is Joe there, by the way?

He's not. He's at work.

He's at work. He's working at Ford. Making him Ford tough.

He's going to come home and be like, what the heck just happened to our house? Somebody on the line. Tell him.

So I. I have phone lines filled and also text lines filled with people that are like, that's my lunch lady, or that's my neighbor, or that's my team mom. That's Coach Joe. Like, they know who you guys are.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God. It's still coming. Oh, yeah.

They're still bringing it in. Rochelle told us about you.

You guys are amazing. Thank you so much. We actually couldn't fit all this stuff in one car, so I had to take my truck today just to get to you guys. This is a lot. Oh, my God.

Rochelle told us so much about you guys that when Lydia and our Breaking and Entering Christmas wish committee was looking at letters, they were like, this one stood out right up front. We have to grant this wish for this family because you guys are really all about what Christmas is.

Oh, thank you guys so much. Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas to you. Susan, can I tell you some of the other things? Can I just tell her some of the bigger things? Somewhere in there, and you have to shake down KP for this, is a Kroger gift card. And it is worth hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of dollars. So make sure you get that one. Because they want to make sure that your cupboards are full, that you have everything you need for a holiday dinner. There's a $500 check that we wrote you in there to help with whatever you need. Actually, two $500 checks. Okay, two $500 checks. Oh, my goodness. And also, we are gifting you and your family with an all-expenses-paid trip to Kalahari so you can have a fun little weekend making some memories with each other.

With gas cards.

Oh, my God, you and my daughter crying.

Gas cards from Speedway. We had friends of ours from all kinds of businesses that heard about you guys and said, hey, can we help out? And literally, we're getting text messages right now. Our friends from Supercuts and Mike Sarafa at Supercuts says, He wants to make sure you guys never pay for any kind of haircuts ever in your lives. You guys are going to get taken care of.

Thank you so much.

Merry Christmas. Hold on real quick.

Merry Christmas, Mojo. Thank you. Let's give a big Merry Christmas. Ready, guys? One, two, three. Merry Christmas!

The Detroit Lions don't suck. Hey, anything is possible. Go Lions! This is Mojo in the Morning.

Mojo in the Morning show. Tomorrow's weather is going to be interesting. It's going to be really, really cold.

Hell yeah.

And we're supposed to get it. Starting later this evening, we're going to be getting a little snow flurries, possibly turning into some nasty stuff. So watch out for the nasty that's going to be coming in tomorrow morning. Make sure you're listening on your way in. And then tomorrow night for the Lions game in Detroit, if you are going to that game, which, by the way, are we supposed to get some tickets or some StubHub away? I know all season long we've been doing that. Do we have that tomorrow or no? Did we have to take a game off because the tickets for Thanksgiving were so expensive?

Nope, we got them for tomorrow.

We got to promote that. We got to promote. I'm such a, literally. You know, it's amazing. We have so many prizes to give away. If, like, Dave and Chuck the Freak had Lions tickets, they'd be promoting them for a month. We have, like, everyday trips to Florida, Jingle Ball tickets. We got Pay Your Bills, Cars. Come on, man. I mean, they are not like us. Yeah. Well, you know what? They aren't like us. They promote their stuff better than we do. We got Lions tickets. Who else is throwing a concert where they're giving away a car at it? That's true. That is very true. But you know what, though? We still got to. Okay, tomorrow morning, be listening. If you want to go, $1,000 StubHub gift card, see whatever you'd like to see. But I know what you'd like to see tomorrow night, so make sure that you're listening.

It's the second date update. A mojo in the morning.

Not getting a call back after you went on a date? What's the story? We're going to find out. Macy's on with us this morning. Macy, what's happening? How you doing? I'm good, thank you. So, Macy, what's the story? You're not getting a call back? yeah no i'm not so you guys have gone out thought everything was good

and um yeah he took me out we went to a bar um i really liked him he called me a car to the bar he was like a gentleman and yeah he hasn't answered my text in a few weeks so yeah all

right we're gonna figure out what's going on his name is nico uh nico what's happening hey how you doing buddy um i'm okay okay i know you were talking to our producer but i would love for you to say hello to macy who is on the phone and was kind of wanting to say hi to you she said that she's had a tough time I'm trying to get a hold of you. Hey.

Hey.

Her hey was so much nicer than your hey. There was not a lot of haze there going on there. Well. What's going on, Nico? Nico, are you good with Macy, or are you having issues with just time right now? You just don't have time on your hands to be able to do another date?

well i mean the issue is she had guys just like blowing up her phone how do you know that well i mean i drove her home and i let her use the car play in the car and like basically i just kept seeing like the same names pop up particularly one name over and over again okay so wait first

off this is interesting you you drove her home but you let her connect her phone to your that's a gentlemanly thing to do that is give me the ox cord by the way that seems more intimate than having sex with a person no i yeah you let people put your car your phone in your car place more intimate than your privates um and and what what particularly bothered you about this one guy that

keeps sending her messages well i mean it's just weird but we don't know it's not a brother

A best friend. Yeah, yeah. And also, you said guys. And now the story changed and it's just one guy.

Well, no, there was multiple guys, but there was one guy that was, like, a lot. Okay. Like, texting a lot.

Okay. And who is that guy, Macy?

I'm a teacher, and those are my students.

You have students that text you?

Yeah, I have students. I tutor them, and I let them text me about their work. Yeah, what time? Why would they text you after 10? Because I'm a teacher during the week, and then I tutor kids after school. And, yeah, a lot of them are older, so I let them text me. I don't really understand why that's hard to understand.

After 10? What night of the week are you guys going out? This was a Friday. So Friday night, you got students that are texting you for help?

Yeah, we have a close personal relationship. I don't really feel like explaining this, honestly.

Honestly, that's a bigger red flag than you texting other people when you first start dating a guy. It's like you're on a first date. It's less of a red flag to me that you're texting other guys than you are your students at 10 o'clock at night.

okay like i i don't know what else there is to say i have students i let them text me okay i honestly don't feel like defending myself anymore so i'm gonna hang up well no i don't want

you to hang up i i i would get it oh she hung up i get it if that's really the story then but still though it's like we're all we're doing is asking questions and it does seem odd that on a friday night you're getting a bunch of texts from a bunch of your students um but also if if she was getting texts from a bunch of guys doesn't matter i don't know chelsea wants to make a comment what's

up chelsea second date update yeah she would have definitely hung up after she heard this she did that on purpose she 100 that was a power play that backfired on her because that was the type of stupid thing that i used to do when i was a annoying high school pick me girl going on a date with some high school boy and trying to make myself look like i was in high demand oh this guy won't leave me alone oh this guy won't leave me alone all these guys want me that's exactly what she was doing and what kind of students does she have that she how she's going to be the next teacher on the news who ends up arrested for uh doing something inappropriate with her students She did that on purpose, 100%.

See, I go back to what Mojo said a minute ago, though. You've gone out on one date. She might have other guys texting her. And guess what? That's okay. That's allowed. There's nothing wrong with that. You pay attention to your date on your first date. But she was. You're not understanding. It was just coming up on the screen of the car because her phone was plugged in. It's not like she was sitting there answering them.

But aren't there certain settings to where, like, you can be?

So I know that I am not turning off my phone if I'm out with somebody for the first time. That phone is staying on.

Absolutely not. No, I'm talking about you don't let the car have access to.

Yeah, you can actually when it connects, you can do it. But I don't know the technical aspects of that. I wouldn't even know how to do that in the weeds. I do think that this I do think it's interesting that you use that as your play to let other guys know that other guys are calling. But Natalie, what's up? It's Mojo in the morning. Second date update. What do you want to say?

Yeah, so I'm definitely someone who is guilty of texting. I guess it's a little bit different.

because i'm in college but i would text my professor really late because i just wasn't aware of what time it is because i'm in college and i'm up late on a friday night though but that's even different college is different yeah this and i don't know what she teaches did she

say i don't know what's up john hi hey what's going on i'm not not saying she's lying about it being students but i do know students don't worry about class work after 10 o'clock on a Friday night, so they're trying to get extra credit.

Well, yeah. I think either that is just the greatest story ever she could use as an excuse or she's a hell of a teacher. What's going on, Dom? Hi. She teaches sex.

I'm just confused on how she calls for a second day updating, gets mad and hangs up.

I know. That's true. She's wanting us to figure out what's going on. That's crazy. But she doesn't like what his reasoning is.

Yeah, like, I don't get how, like, what's that about?

I don't know.

And how are you mad? Because somebody asked a question about a bunch of people texting you while we're on a date.

Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. That is interesting. We're trying to call her back, and she's not returning any of our calls or messages.

Oh, because she's embarrassed that she got caught in a lie.

Yeah. It is wild, though, that you let her use your CarPlay, Nico. I'll be honest with you. That is a very personal thing. I would never let anybody. I don't even like Kev. I let him use the...

It's been wilder that she actually wanted to hook up to it.

Well, that's the wild. I was going to say, that's the wild part. Because it shows everything that's happening on your phone.

I know. Yeah. I would honestly be more embarrassed about the last played songs. That would probably be the one thing I'd be worried about.

For you, yes. Yeah.

Let's wrap up with a 30 on the 30. Throwback, throwdown. Second date update. And more of the roses. This is Mojo in the Morning.

All right. Tomorrow morning. More on Mojo in the Morning, more War of the Roses, more Breaking and Entering Christmas Wish, more chances to go to the big game tomorrow night. That's when you get Mojo in the Morning on the iHeartRadio app. You always get more. That's why if you missed any portion of today's show, you've got to go get our podcast and get more Mojo. All right. We will see you tomorrow morning. Have a great day. 20-plus years of idiocy and still going in Detroit, Toledo, and West Michigan.

It's Mojo in the Morning.
