All right. It is Mojo in the morning show. It's going to be an interesting time this weekend. God, I want to be a fly on the freaking wall. I don't know. You ever feel this way sometimes? Do you ever feel like you want to be a fly on the wall when you have friends of yours that are having to deal with some issues with their parents? Well, our friend Lydia.

i can't believe i'm 27 and this is a topic that i'm doing but here we are here we are lydia

um lydia's got something interesting going on this weekend yeah so we have the more mojo podcast

on friday and drew is coming into town for it and he's going to be staying for the entire weekend who be drew drew is a guy that i'm talking to at the moment and he's coming in can we say where

he's coming in from yes so he's coming in from phoenix arizona drew is the infamous guy that we've talked about on the show that lydia uh you know had we explained the whole these nuts things these nuts drew but then lydia's parents met him and his family went to their house but doesn't your dad know that there's something going on between the two of you guys he knows that we're

friends so that's all he knows as of now and drew and his dad texted my dad letting him know that drew was coming into town and so my dad was like oh that's perfect we can all get breakfast together this weekend and i was thinking okay so we're gonna go get breakfast on sunday but i'm spending friday and saturday with drew alone so it's it's gonna be really awkward if my dad doesn't know

wait when your dad knows he's a friend do you think that your dad still got his you know headed it in the clouds with what a friend means, a guy friend means?

I think so. No, you don't think he knows that it's more than that? I'm not

going to tell him. Well, I haven't told him. I guess that's the story here is that I haven't told him that I'm going to be spending Friday and Saturday with him, but I think once I say that, or if I were to, he's going to know that there's something more going on. Does your mom know? Oh, yeah. Science? Cool. My mom calls herself mother-in-law already. We haven't even made the title of boyfriend or girlfriend. You know what we need to do?

Real quick, I'm sorry. I'm just thinking. you need to make it look like you're in your bed with like a bunch of pillows and like that's what

i was gonna say you're going where i'm going is it a situation where your mom would lie for you and make it look like you were sleeping in your bed full damn well knowing that you were not there

she told me to lie she's like tell your dad that you're going out with your friend shamir for two days and i'm like that is crazy for me to like explain that i'm gonna spend friday and saturday with a friend who already lives here your mom would lie to your dad

wow i told her i won't come home pregnant she want her baby to get her eggs crank

lydia i'll sleep in your bed for you that would actually fly can i uh can i tell you that this is an interesting one because

if your dad really likes him enough to make a breakfast plan on sunday what if your dad were to cancel breakfast plans on sunday when you're not there on friday or saturday because he knows that you were doing a little premarital fornication i don't think he would cancel the plans

though you don't think so no but if he thought that we were having sex he probably would well

you're not having sex you better not be i'm not let's not do that let's wait till marriage if you gonna go go all the way make it a real of course you would you're the same guy that got pink eye

from some girl yeah and some people are texting and saying my dad knows now that we said it on the air he might know later but he's still sleeping i think and he does not listen right No.

He doesn't listen to us. He listens to the station out of Dearborn.

There's like an AM Chaldean station.

Yeah, the AM.

Is there really a Chaldean station? I don't know.

Sometimes you ever flip through the dial and all of a sudden you run across the station and you're like, oh, my God, this is Al Jazeera, like, right, or something on there. Like, what is going on here? Okay, so, all right, so this is an interesting one. So has anybody ever had to sneak out of the house from their parents, like, for a weekend, spend a weekend with a boy? 844-MOJO-LIVE. 844-665-6548. I love that mom also would lie for you that she's willing to put her relationship with your dad on the line.

Those are the stories I want to hear if you have a mom that lied for you.

Now that would piss him off more than anything.

He'd be less pissed off at you and more pissed off at his wife for doing that.

Oh, I kind of like that. Deflection.

What do you think this is going to happen with? I think it's interesting that Drew's dad also contacted your dad. That shows very much respect.

They're good friends now.

It's kind of nice. This is kind of nice. It's an arranged marriage of sorts. But your dad actually didn't know Drew and his dad beforehand. You kind of introduced them to each other. This is the part where Lydia can't talk to us during this topic because she's got to grab phones too. We multitask. We get some multitasking during this time.

I'm excited that he's going to be hanging out with us during the podcast on Friday. I'm talking about Drew, not Lydia's dad, because we'll get to...

We should have Lydia's dad there, too. That's what we make the amount of reason. You mean this podcast can get fun? It gets fun fast that way. 844-MOJO-LIVE, 844-665-6548. The text is 95500. On this, this is why I don't have daughters. God did not give me daughters because I would have a hard time with something like this. And it's funny because I definitely treat my sons differently. You know, like Chelsea's the, it's funny how Chelsea's very strict with our sons where she won't let them have their girlfriends stay over at the house or boyfriend stay over at the house unless they're married, where I would be more willing to do that. But if I had a daughter, she'd have a chastity belt around that freaking thing. What's going on, Nicole? Hi.

Hi. Right, so I have part of my parents resting the night with my boyfriend because I'm Chaldean, and they are very strict on me.

Yes, so being what Lydia is, Chaldean, you have to hide your relationships, right, until you're about to either get married or something even, I don't know, more than that. Maybe have children, right?

Well, they know that I'm needing him. They just don't know that I spend the night with him.

Oh, so where do they think you are at night? Where do you do?

So I'm a nanny, so I just stay working overnight. Family.

You lie. Do the family that you nanny for help you lie?

No, but I find ways to do it. Okay.

Can I ask you a question? Because I know, and Lydia, please correct me if I'm wrong here with this information. In the Chaldean culture, and I think there are some other cultures that this is the case as well, you cannot introduce a man to your dad in most cases family unless it is very very serious and you're about to get engaged right sorry i was listening to a call at the same time yes okay yeah so at that moment do aren't the dads like well where how have you been you know how did this relationship happen to the point where you know you're going to want to spend the rest of

they're not dumb they do not like test driving at all they want you to buy the car before you

test drive like they have to know that over a certain course of time there's been a relationship

formulated i don't think they're dumb i think as the generations kind of grow and get a little bit more modernized i think it's gotten a lot less strict but i think that the daughters try to keep it as clean as possible because they just don't want their dads going crazy like

a lot of my guy friends that are chaldean they're they are guys that because i have chaldean guy friends that are in their 30s all the way up to you know 50s and i a lot of the ones that have like daughters they're not dumb they know what's going on you know but i also think that they don't want their daughter sleeping over at the other guy's house you know right uh shelly what's up

good morning so i agree with everything you guys are saying however there's no harm in testing the chemistry because we all know the best way for a successful, lasting marriage is to find the G-spot.

Oh, God. You went from testing the chemistry to going about the G-spot. I don't want to know

about that. You can get over any argument, Mojo, any issue.

But if they can't get to the G...

Visit that spot, it's all good, I'm just saying. Yes.

Lydia, will you be testing? what's up hannah or hannah what's going on how are you hey i'm good how are you guys good what's

going on so we're i'm albanian and growing up we had to lie to my dad if you wanted to have a life you had to lie to my dad and my brother so when we were driving i remembered his license plate number just in case so that when we were driving we would like duck if we were in the car with a guy or anything because he would know like they were crazy but it was more so just because we wanted to not embarrass them but we had to live a little yes that that is so funny though you had

to duck in the car because your dad or brother were driving who are you more fearful of your

dad or your brother my brother i didn't want to tell him i got engaged i that was so afraid

wow that's wild you got engaged and you're afraid to tell him that what's going on darren how you

doing hey mojo uh first thing uh first time on yeah all right Darren on the phone Darren sounds like me trying to put a sentence together today what's going on yeah I guess so so uh one time a few years ago uh when I first started dating my girlfriend um I still have my parents and they were all mad at me for something and I ended up um sneaking my girlfriend in the house through the front porch try to and then didn't know my dad was still awake he opens the front door she tried to hide knock something over and made a big bang and he's like oh there's something out there I'm like no no just that knocked over or something I walked inside we're talking for a little bit then I finally got her sneak in the window and they didn't know until literally a

few months ago I just told them wow that's wild man I gotta tell you that that's pretty bold to do that in in to have you know the whole sneaking in through a window type thing but isn't this so

tough as a parent of kids who I mean you have one that's about to get married and you have another that's in a very serious relationship and then Luke like you said is bringing home a girl tonight whether it's a girlfriend or not like you want to meet the people that they are oh yeah dating you want to meet the people that they are in a relationship with because you know you you're gonna have feelings and opinions and as the kid I would want my parents to go ah you know to give

me their opinion i don't want them hiding it from me because to me if they're hiding it from me they're not being careful with what they're doing you know but also if this is somebody that could

potentially be a part of your family yeah you want to get to know them you want to absolutely

hey you're being voice disguised a is on the phone you're chaldean yes i am yeah so you know

Yeah, so I'm Fabian, and my dad's motto about life is don't tell anyone until you're finished. And so that just applies to everything, I guess. So I asked him explicitly, when it comes to relationships, you don't want me to tell you until I'm finished, until I'm married? And he explicitly said yes.

Wow. So it's interesting. Don't tell him until you're finished. It's funny, as a dad, that's a difference. Because an American dad, like Americanized dad, like some white dude, would honestly want to show off his gun collection so that every guy knew that I'll kill you if you do anything to my daughters. It's just understood in the Chaldean tradition, Chaldean faith, that, hey, you do anything with my daughters, not only do you got me to deal with, but you got the brother to deal with, too.

Exactly.

Lydia, do you ever wonder about your brother? worried about, you know, with this guy? Like, how will your brother be with you?

Oh, my brother won't care. My brother, at one point, when I was dating a guy and he got married, he actually got me and my boyfriend a hotel room.

Oh, my God. For his wedding. Who's this guy? My brother. I don't know. Tom, what did you want to say? Okay, so it's not that deep, you guys.

Every guy out there that's listening right now has a first cousin that they have married. I can't.

Tom, do you call every day and use a different name? No, he's always Tom.

He's always Tom. Oh, he is? This is Tom, the funeral home guy. Oh, okay. Yeah, Tom knows this because Tom lives out by me where all the Chaldeans live. It is kind of interesting, isn't it? I don't know if they're first cousins, but they are married to a lot of their cousins. No, they're first cousins, dude. I love it. I'm still on the time. All right. This guy's a white guy, though. This guy is a non-Khaldean guy, by the way. Well, I'm just saying, everyone that's listening out there is probably spitting their coffee in their lap. They have a cousin, first cousin, that married another first cousin. And, Tom, what kind of cars are they driving? Escalates. And what color are the Escalates? Black, of course. No, no, they're white. They're white. Yeah, the guys drive the black ones, the wives drive the white ones. So, all right, we'll talk to you later. This is going to be an interesting weekend for Lydia.
