It's International Women's Day, which as I started the show this morning, I said it should be like International Women's Day every day and not just focused on one day. But it's wonderful to be able to know that all of us have the affinity of women that are in our lives. Many of these these women are relatives of ours. they start off as relatives and many of these could be co-workers or you know former bosses one thing about working for this company iheart radio is that we have female leadership in some amazing ways that honestly i will say this to you starts right here with our boss colleen colleen grant shout out to her today so we uh and and kim block camp i mean the the the dynamic duo that run this radio station and run our lives here radio-wise are amazing. But, Mike, you have a great topic that you want to do for International Women's Day and something very, very special to you because you've got an awesome wife, but you've also got a mom that influenced you, you know, grandmas, and who do you want to talk about right now specifically?

00:03:39 - 00:05:00 | Speaker 5:

Well, I do want to thank my mom and my sister and my grandmothers and my aunts and people that came in and out of my life for shaping and Megan Mick, of course, influencing and friends and coworkers that have influenced and shaped and molded me to be a decent human being. Um, I think that my life truly did change when, um, when, uh, you know, I met my wife and then had a little girl and I was never, I was never a, um, my dad, my dad was kind of the, the guy's guy where you don't, you don't show emotions. You don't cry. Like if I ever cried, I didn't ever cry in front of him and it wasn't a thing we did in our house. And since having a little girl and my wife, I've become more kind and more patient. And overall, like, emotions that I think were always there, characteristics that were always there, just started to pour out and started to seem normal to express. And I also learned, you know, holding that little girl and anybody, everybody who's had a kid knows this, holding that little kid for the first time, especially if you birth that child, that child was part of your body for nine months. You hold them for the first time and it completely.

00:05:00 - 00:05:52 | Speaker 2:

changes your whole outlook on everything your perspective on everything nothing else matters this is it this is everything and then me who was a just i've said it a million times but i won't stop saying it because i'm i'm proud of where i came uh i'm proud of who i've become not where i came but the i was a d-bag before like i just wasn't a good guy i dated girls and and and would just ghost and i just did a lot of things that i wasn't proud of uh today and then you have a little girl and you're like your whole mind just goes in all these different places she's gonna run into to to jerks like i was you know what i mean so then i went back and i i did i've done this for the last few years now i went back and called every ex that would answer my phone call did you really mike yeah yeah yeah i sat down and had lunch with with some and apologized and just said i was wrong a lot of them won't answer and that's totally understandable but i get it i mean

00:05:52 - 00:05:55 | Speaker 1:

i wasn't the greatest how many are we talking here you're making it sound like there's i mean

00:05:55 - 00:06:26 | Speaker 2:

a handful but it was still there's there's a couple i'm yeah i said a lot like there's no it's not like that but i just i tried uh to to make amends and i don't deserve it in any way shape or form but that that's not the point the point is that these amazing women my wife ali my daughter cecily megan mick oh my god thank you mike oh my god just the just there's a lot of good women in my life and there's a lot of good women in the world but a lot of good women in my life

00:06:26 - 00:08:21 | Speaker 1:

who who just make me a better human i want to say thank you that's awesome i love that i was thinking when you brought this up in our pre-show meeting that this was a topic that you wanted to bring up i was thinking about what my mom taught me and my mom i think my mom gave me my faith my faith in god because i saw her in the worst of moments as she had been battling cancer throughout most of my childhood. And yet she still loved God. Like she didn't turn her faith to go, you know, why would he do this to me? She actually turned her faith to say, I'm going to go to heaven and I'm going to be in a, in a better place. And so that was kind of like where that faith goes. But then I was raised by three sisters afterwards. And those three sisters did exactly what you were just talking about taught me how to be a better man and be a husband to a wife in Chelsea who taught me how to actually be tougher and, you know, um, you know, have a backbone and not, you know, not, uh, do the, Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'll do that. I'll do that. And then not do it like to follow through on promises. And, you know, I, I, I will say this to you. One of the things about women in Shannon and Megan and Lydia and KP, who is not with us right now, we're blessed to be surrounded around you guys. But one of the things about you guys is you guys are so good at thinking things through where guys don't think sometimes. Well, most of the time. And the one thing that I will always know is that I can turn to the women that are in my life to be able to ask a question that might have an obvious answer, but it's not obvious to me because I always, you know, go for it. And then the non-obvious answer is the one that you guys always come up with too. Like the one where you have to look at like the...

00:08:21 - 00:08:22 | Speaker 2:

Just shift your perspective a little.

00:08:22 - 00:09:49 | Speaker 1:

Yeah, shift it. And it's funny because like that was one of the conversations I was having with my son Joe because we were talking about International Women's Day and he said what he was going to talk about about his mom today on the air. and he was like mom always told us to not look at things as you know black or white or a or b but to look at c d z w you know what i mean like look at other things that are in things you know like to go to explore it more and then i think about chelsea and how what she has done as a mom because she's got three boys that she's trying to mold into men and how she parents them so differently. Like, we have a son who the first person he wanted to come out to, you know, as a parent was Chelsea because he knew that Chelsea was going to be the compassionate, you know, loving and understanding. And then Luke and Joe, when they face any kind of adversity in their lives through breakups of relationships or through Luke trying to get through school right now, mom's always the one, and it pisses me off. But I understand why, because she's my go-to too. Happy International Women's Day. Do you guys want to share anything about the women in your lives or yourself, because you're a woman?

00:09:49 - 00:10:00 | Speaker 2:

Well, I'll piggyback. Not you, but go ahead. I wasn't saying you're the woman. said about the women in my life. I'm sorry. No, go ahead. Go next. No, I just want to piggyback on what Mike said about being a girl dad, and you're just...

00:10:00 - 00:11:10 | Speaker 4:

inspired by my kind, intelligent, and inquisitive daughters. They make me proud to be an ally and fight for genuine equality, but also their mom and their grandmothers who taught them to be proud, be fierce, be themselves. Like you said, thank God there was a mom at home while we were doing this goofy job. I'm so grateful for Megan who takes care of me and a six-year-old. I'm not sure which one of us is bigger baggage to take care of a six-year-old or me i'm pretty sure i'm tougher to take care of but while kicking ass and she's taking names at a male-dominated industry too and she's just amazing in every way to watch her megan your girlfriend that yeah yeah uh to watch her work and and the work-life balance is just insane and it i know that would break my back i wouldn't be able to do it and then just to circle back to what you said at the beginning of this conversation and our brilliant sisters here on the air and behind the scenes who make our show better, but also make us as people better. It's necessary. And if you don't have that representation, I mean, an equal world is an enabled world. And we're made better because of the women in our lives.

00:11:11 - 00:11:11 | Speaker 5:

Thanks.

00:11:12 - 00:11:15 | Speaker 3:

Do you guys want to just take the rest of the morning off for International Women's Day?

00:11:15 - 00:11:20 | Speaker 5:

I mean, you can't want us to start. Do I go to Starbucks? I thought of that on the drive-in.

00:11:20 - 00:11:26 | Speaker 4:

No, no. Yeah, we can do that. All right. I got a gift card that's still got $6 on it.

00:11:26 - 00:12:32 | Speaker 5:

Spike would give me a gift card that's for like $4.19, like some rando number. Can I actually recognize somebody? Sure. Because I feel like every year I recognize my daughter, Lucy, or my mom, who is phenomenal. And I'm blessed to have a great stepmom, Chris, as well. But I really want to just give a shout out to my youngest sister, Jacqueline, who I, you know, as of late have been just absolutely blown away by her strength because she is the mom of my sweet nieces, Stella and Navy, and Navy was born at the end of July with some pretty, pretty severe special needs. And watching my sister walk through that and navigate that and advocate for her daughter while being a mom and a sister and a friend. She's a doctor of physical therapy. She works. She has been the glue that has held my family together on top of some other things that we're all dealing with. And I just, I bow down to her today because she is an incredible, incredible woman. Awesome.

00:12:32 - 00:12:57 | Speaker 3:

and Megan what you're doing for the women in the Toledo area and honestly past Toledo because there's so many people that will go to Toledo to try to get away from a bad situation and what you're doing with the women shelter there I mean I honor you for what what your heart is now poured out to to help out people and maybe you can talk about some of the women that are involved with

00:12:57 - 00:13:45 | Speaker 2:

that yeah i'm absolutely floored with so many women um lisa mcduffie christy hoffman um mindy we got lauren all of them over at the ywca rachel who works there um the ywca is the only emergency domestic violence shelter here in northwest ohio serves a huge portion of the state um they have so many other services than that but i'm just overwhelmed with the amount of work that they do for our sisters here in our community because this can affect literally anybody. There's no boundaries to who might be touched by domestic violence and needing emergency shelter. Those ladies are actually going to come on to KISS all day today and take over. We are playing only women on the station and talking and sharing how you can help if you want. That's awesome. Megan, that is great. That's awesome. I love that.

00:13:45 - 00:13:54 | Speaker 3:

So if you're not even in Toledo, if you're in Grand Rapids or Detroit or other where around, stream it on the iHeart app. 92.5 KISS FM in Toledo.

00:13:54 - 00:13:59 | Speaker 2:

Please, please, please. And we're going to stream the whole thing live, too, so you can watch along, and it'll be so much fun today. Thank you.

00:14:00 - 00:14:02 | Speaker 3:

Judith, how are you doing?

00:14:03 - 00:14:27 | Speaker 1:

I'm doing good. How are you? Fantastic. I just wanted to tell you that I lost my mom the same way, watching her, like, deteriorate through cancer, and it was a very fast battle, but she was also an amazing Christian, touched so many people's lives, including mine, and she was ready to go meet Jesus, and I'm going to meet her again, but she inspired me and made me the person that I am. And I strive to be like

00:14:27 - 00:14:52 | Speaker 3:

her every day. It's funny. I don't know how you feel if you're like this, but I was thinking about this as a grown adult. And I was thinking I would be the most bitter cancer person. Like, you know, if I had cancer, I'd probably be bitter, but now I can't be bitter because I saw the path that my mom raised for me. And I always thought to myself, I'm like, how was she not bitter? you know what I mean or how was she but it was her faith that was the reason why

00:14:52 - 00:15:11 | Speaker 1:

she was so right you know and she you know my mom broke down a few times just because it's frustrating just sure you know your body is dying but She was just ready, and, you know, I can't wait to meet her again. But it's just like the whole thing made me stronger, and I hope that it made you stronger. But just wanted to let you know that you're not alone.

00:15:11 - 00:15:19 | Speaker 4:

We'll party together one day, all of us and our moms. Our moms are partying together. Mark, how you doing? Who did you want to shout out today?

00:15:20 - 00:15:22 | Speaker 1:

Hey, good morning, Margell. How you all?

00:15:22 - 00:15:24 | Speaker 4:

We're good, buddy. What did you want to do?

00:15:25 - 00:15:53 | Speaker 1:

Oh, well, I was just listening to the comments you guys have been making, And I agree with Spike that I'm proud of my 16-year-old daughter, who's the captain of the Color Guard at Lord Lake Central. And, in fact, we just got back a couple weeks ago back from Florida down in Walt Disney World. They were invited. The whole marching band got invited to go down there and march. But, yeah, I'm really proud of her. She's a hard worker. She's running A's already.

00:15:53 - 00:16:02 | Speaker 4:

Wow. What's her plans? Let me ask you this as a dad. Do you ever picture, visualize, like, what she'll be doing five, ten years from now?

00:16:04 - 00:16:07 | Speaker 1:

Actually, she's got it planned out. She wants to become a nurse.

00:16:08 - 00:16:19 | Speaker 4:

That's great. Awesome. Go Vikings. Yeah. Incredible. Thank you for the call. I appreciate it. I feel the way I feel. Man, I feel like a woman.
