All right, it is Mojo in the morning. Here's the topic, and I want you to call us up, and if you need to just say, you know, maybe not a person's name, but an initial, you can do this. I want to know, who are you trying to avoid right now? Everybody has somebody that they're trying to avoid. Could be a neighbor, could be a coworker, could be a boss, could be Fletch. I bring this up with all great love. Does Lydia have Fletch's number? Somebody send Lydia Fletch's number just in case she doesn't have it.

Zach's on my way.

All right. So I feel like such a jerk. I'm going to call myself the Jersey jerk. I was going to Jersey Mike's to pick up my order yesterday. And I pulled into the Jersey Mike's and there was one parking spot available. And the parking spot was right up close to the front of the store. Perfect. The best. Very happy. Until I parked the car and looked over to my left. There was a Nissan sitting next to me. and I looked inside and Fletch was sitting in there. For those that don't know Fletch, Fletch is the guy that produces all the deep voice guy stuff, you know, the things that we run on the air that you hear in between the same mojo in the morning. But he also was a proud member of the show. He's an alum of the show and he's a good friend. But I did not have an hour and a half to sit there and talk to Fletch. All I wanted to do was get my sandwich and get home.

Get the sandwich and go home.

Get home and go eat. And I didn't want it to become one of these things where he's telling me about he's playing world-class tennis or something like that. Or, you know, he's at home watching Family Guy episodes or how much, you know, he, you know, has new drops for me or whatever the deal might be. So I decided what I was going to do. And this is where I talked about how you're avoiding somebody. I decided to hide in my Tahoe. I got in the car like I sat in the car but I sat scrunched down you did not you know the little pillar that keeps the driver's side in the passing the back seat you know like the it's like the door wall is it's like a little it's kind of just slim enough that it can hide my head so that nobody can see it's me inside there so I hid in there and scrunched all the way down and I looked over at his car waiting for him to pull out yeah and that bastard was eating chips in the car chip by chip by chip eating his chips i'm like this guy's never gonna leave oh god i can totally see this happening it was crazy do you ditch a good spot no because there was nowhere else for me to park but also he was parked right outside the store there was no other entrance into jersey mics but

i know you i know you had a hoodie put the hood up no mojo you could spot walking a mile away

it's you have a very i have a waddle not a walk yeah but so i sat there for a while it must have been five ten minutes and i'm like going oh my god i ordered this thing as i was driving home so this you know sub has got to be just sitting there waiting for me then i thought to myself no that's not the case because whenever i order a sub a jersey mike's it takes them eight hours to make the damn thing because they only have two people

working behind there. That's because everything is fresh and they put so much care into it. Is that what it is? I know.

It's family owned and operated. I love Jersey Mike's by the way. I will fight for Jersey.

Is anything cooked there?

Yes, they have cooked stuff. I did the Jersey Mike's roast beef turkey ham combo. I forget what it's called but it's delicious. And I get a gluten free bun so I know they have to clean and sanitize everything. This is not a commercial.

for Jersey Mike's I mean kind of Ryan you're welcome all right but this is a commercial for avoiding people so Fletch is sitting in the car right next to me and he's just sitting there and I'm going oh my god this is crazy and it got me thinking I think everybody has somebody that they're avoiding and a lot of times the person that you do not want to run into you end up

running into the most yeah store yeah I mean there's a few people that I wouldn't want to run into but I feel like this happens to us all the time with teachers like if I'm with the kids and we see a teacher out in the in the wild i have to hide somewhere with you know what whichever child i'm with so that their teacher the teacher not the teachers that they have but you know like the music teacher their teacher whatever doesn't see them i'm like why are we so afraid of this

i have no idea you understand those teachers are hiding from you too they don't want to see their

their parents probably probably but i was like crouched down at the end of the aisle at the grocery store a couple of weeks ago because one of lucy's teachers was in there i'm like doing something inappropriate or not at all i just don't think she wanted to be spotted i don't i

have no idea you know what i i hate i hate that when i used to have that neighbor terry that lived next door to me i would have to pull into my garage and i would have to shut the door immediately after i pulled into the garage otherwise it would be a two and a half hour

conversation i do the same thing and if you've been a listener of this show for a long time i do the same thing in the fall with my neighbor across the street marty because she blames me for all the leaves that blow across the street into her yard, and I do not want to hear it. So I run in my house.

Oh my God. Yeah, I felt honestly kind of embarrassed by this whole thing that poor Fletch, and I haven't seen Fletch face-to-face in a while. We talk a lot.

Oh, I'm mad at him anyways. Really? Why? He texted me at one o'clock in the morning the last time.

He wants a date with you so bad.

I love this man with all of my heart. How dare you text me at one o'clock in the morning? How dare you?

He's been begging for a date from you for a decade.

That's when you text him back at 5.30 in the morning when you know he just went to bed.

Leonard, what's up? It's Mojo in the morning. Who are you avoiding?

Oh, I ain't avoiding anybody. I was trying to tell you the part that you was hiding behind is the B pillar.

Is that what it's called automotive-wise? Wait, what's it called? The B pillar?

Yeah, it goes in order. So at your windshield, that's the A pillar. What do you do? Are you a body shop guy? No, no.

I just love cars. I love it, man. Well, I was hiding behind the B-pillar, believe it or not, man. My big old head. I can't believe he didn't see me. What's up, Michelle? It's Mojo in the Morning. What's going on? Who are you avoiding?

Shit.

I'm avoiding Old Man Dave.

That's why you don't listen. Wait, who's Old Man Dave?

Oh, my gosh. Old Man Dave is this guy. He's not at the gas station, like the local gas station in the morning. He drives around town, and he's retired. My mom passed away, so he feels like he needs to come check in on me, I feel like. I live in the country, so, like, you know, we got dirt roads and whatnot. He'll cruise down those dirt roads real slow, just peering through the woods to see if I'm on that porch. And if I am, he pulls in.

They do it all the time.

Shannon, if I hear his truck, I jump and I get up and I run into the house because I will be on that porch for two hours talking to that old man. Oh, yeah. The sad part is, God bless him.

They're sweet neighbors and they're sweet people because they're looking out for you, but you just don't want to have to have that long conversation.

Have you guys ever been out in public and you spot somebody that you know, but you pretend you don't see them, but then they spot you and come up to you and you have to fake surprise that you get there. All the time.

I was at a restaurant this weekend Where a girl who worked there and I clearly knew each other And we both looked at each other and go We're going to pretend that we don't know each other And I walked away

That is funny, I never knew You're both avoiding each other

Like, bye

Hey, initial N, you're being voices, guys What's going on?

Morning, I am I'm avoiding my dad

You're avoiding your dad

Why? My dad has a new girl girlfriend and he is very excited about it they haven't gone on very many dates yet so i don't want to get emotionally invested so i'm just kind of like keeping my distance a little bit right now

you know what though i kind of get it though you know what i mean like i the whole new girlfriend part yeah you know what and you don't want to see her when my dad started dating after my mom died i didn't i didn't want to see my dad with another woman and i didn't want to actually deal with her so that'd be tough i get it yeah that could be on like two dates yeah

so i don't really it's just too early for me yeah no i get it uh well good luck to you avoiding

hide behind the the b what is it called again the b uh the b pillar hide behind the b pillar hold on let's see Fletch answers he's uh I do feel bad because somebody's going to listen to this and they're going to go hey they were talking about you on the radio today and the problem is what's going to happen is he's going to think oh that's cool and he's going to go listen to it and hear me

talking about wanting to avoid yeah but I told him I loved him in it so and you said you would

date him I would just for his mom's credit card he's going to masturbate to that you watch

Oh, my God. There it is. You know what? It's about time we cross that line. Leave him a message, Megan.

No, that is true. That is true. That's Fletch. That's a Fletch thing. Hey, Fletch, just wanted to leave you a message. I want to find out which sub did you have yesterday at Jersey Mike's.

How are those chips?

They looked really good.
