What do the kids do, Shannon, when they have a snow day like today? What are Lucy and Smith going to be up to?

00:01:57 - 00:02:15 | Speaker 5:

So this is Andrew's week to have them. And since he's at work, so Nama, his mom is hanging with them. They are so excited to have a snow day, though. So they'll probably just stay in their pajamas all day. And they're, like, obsessed with Legos. They got so many Legos for Christmas. So they're building like Lego cities right now.

00:02:15 - 00:02:51 | Speaker 2:

It's funny because my mom used to love snow days more than we love snow days. And I don't know if you feel like this as a mom or if you feel like you want to just go home and, you know, get a nap in or something like that because it's working. But my mom was the person who would put the spoon under her pillow because she wanted us to be home. It's funny how much she would love snow days And she was the one that would jump in the car And take us to the toboggan, you know Sledding slope at the church by our house And she'd sit in the car and smoke cigarettes the whole time I wonder how much that just changed now

00:02:51 - 00:02:57 | Speaker 4:

With everybody working from home If it's like, oh no, the kids are going to be here all day Or if you're excited, I don't know

00:02:57 - 00:03:32 | Speaker 2:

Yeah, it's funny, I don't know Chelsea's like this too This morning we did not want Luke driving to school because he drives, you know, being in high school. And we were both happy that they canceled school. But I want to do a quick, let's do a quick check-in. 844-MOJO-LIVE, 844-665-6548. Do we have any snow day check-ins? Any teachers that are out, you know, enjoying their, what they normally would not be able to do? Or maybe, I don't know, having a cocktail. What are you guys doing? 844-MOJO-LIVE. What you definitely don't want to do is you definitely don't want Shannon cooking for her kids.

00:03:32 - 00:04:38 | Speaker 5:

today because we do my god she was lit herself on fire for goodness i i can't i mean you this is no secret i can't cook i i wish i could like there are certain things i can make but for the most part i'm just super clumsy in general and very clumsy in the kitchen and last night i was by myself and so i it got to be like 8 30 and i hadn't eaten dinner yet so i'm like okay i guess better make something and i'm like looking around for something to make and um so i threw i was boiling a pot of water and put some pasta in it and so I'm standing over my stove kind of stirring the pasta and admittedly not paying attention because in my other hand I had my phone and I was scrolling through Instagram and all of a sudden I could smell something funky I'm like what the heck is that I look down and realize that the sleeve of the brand new sweater that I was wearing yesterday had started to singe and catch fire because of how i was holding this too and i'm like why am i the biggest idiot i cannot be trusted i cannot be trusted keep you away from

00:04:38 - 00:04:44 | Speaker 2:

that especially these you know it's like that's why gas grill our gas stoves need to be banned

00:04:44 - 00:04:51 | Speaker 5:

well i had that reason right there electric stove oh before you know before now i have a gas stove

00:04:51 - 00:04:58 | Speaker 4:

I was going to say, how do you light, you can't light yourself on fire with an electric stove. You can melt things, you forget, you put things on it, you forget it's still hot.

00:04:58 - 00:04:58 | Speaker 5:

Yeah.

00:04:58 - 00:04:59 | Speaker 4:

I've done that.

00:04:59 - 00:04:59 | Speaker 2:

What?

00:05:00 - 00:05:11 | Speaker 5:

When the kids are home and stuff like that, for snow days, if you have them, would you cook for them? Because me, I always remember my mom also making mac and cheese.

00:05:11 - 00:05:34 | Speaker 2:

Well, my kids are still, they eat a lot of fruits and vegetables, but in terms of a quote-unquote main thing, I don't really need to, they eat mac and cheese. They think that it is gourmet when it is from the microwave. So it's mac and cheese, or they like pasta or chicken fingers that I heat up in the microwave. Or they'll have like a peanut butter Nutella sandwich. Pizza rolls. That's about it.

00:05:35 - 00:05:51 | Speaker 5:

Snow day foods. They do not eat a lot. Snow day foods for me were pizza rolls. If my parents would get, what was the brand of chicken? It was like the frozen chicken, was it? It started with an H. Why am I brain farting on it?

00:05:52 - 00:05:52 | Speaker 4:

Hanson's?

00:05:52 - 00:06:04 | Speaker 5:

No, it was... Hormel? It's in the... No. But Hormel chili was one of those ones too. Okay, I still maintain. I love Hormel chili. That stuff, by the way, your sodium levels go through right here.

00:06:04 - 00:06:08 | Speaker 2:

I always make chili mac with it. It's so good. That's probably what I'll have tonight.

00:06:08 - 00:06:24 | Speaker 5:

Man, this is all, by the way, it's funny. This is all foods that bring back memories, and it's all the stuff that we run out to the grocery store to stock up on because we think the world's coming to an end because there's going to be a snowstorm. Angel, what's going on? It's Mojo in the morning. Hello, Angie.

00:06:24 - 00:06:24 | Speaker 3:

Good morning.

00:06:25 - 00:06:25 | Speaker 5:

How are you?

00:06:25 - 00:06:27 | Speaker 3:

Hi, I'm here. I'm fine, and yourself?

00:06:27 - 00:06:30 | Speaker 5:

Doing okay. What's going on? It's a snow day. Are you home, or are you working?

00:06:31 - 00:06:43 | Speaker 3:

No. You know what? I work from home, and I miss my kids so much when they used to go in person that I decided to let them stay home forever. So they've been online since before COVID.

00:06:44 - 00:06:44 | Speaker 4:

Oh, wow.

00:06:44 - 00:06:48 | Speaker 3:

So for us, every day is a snow day. A snow day.

00:06:48 - 00:06:52 | Speaker 4:

And you don't regret that now that they're home every single day and you're still working from home?

00:06:52 - 00:06:59 | Speaker 3:

No, I'm so excited. I just woke them up not too long ago, and I was excited. I'm sorry to put it in my mouth.

00:06:59 - 00:07:04 | Speaker 5:

Angel, does the school that you go to, is it a specific school that does online?

00:07:05 - 00:07:09 | Speaker 3:

No, it's not the Zoom setup, no.

00:07:09 - 00:07:17 | Speaker 5:

Okay, because I know that there's a lot of kids that still get a snow day, even if this is the case, because the teachers can't get in to go do the Zoom.

00:07:18 - 00:07:22 | Speaker 3:

No, see, they're online. The whole entire school is online.

00:07:22 - 00:07:26 | Speaker 5:

Are they in their own homes doing it Or do they have to drive to a classroom

00:07:26 - 00:07:29 | Speaker 3:

They do it on their own time They're at home and they do it on their own time

00:07:29 - 00:07:32 | Speaker 4:

So you've got to keep up on them too

00:07:32 - 00:07:36 | Speaker 3:

I would lose my

00:07:36 - 00:07:40 | Speaker 5:

I would lose my mind as a kid With that

00:07:40 - 00:07:47 | Speaker 3:

It's four of them So I have three our students One is two years old

00:07:47 - 00:07:49 | Speaker 4:

Wow you do love your kids I don't love my kids that much

00:07:49 - 00:07:56 | Speaker 5:

I would want to be out of that house so fast But I will say I give you credit as a mom that you're doing that and you're a working mom, too.

00:07:56 - 00:08:04 | Speaker 3:

I get to monitor their grades. I get to spend time with them. They don't have to face bullies in school. You know, you're not carrying around seven or eight.

00:08:04 - 00:08:06 | Speaker 5:

I wasn't worried about bullies in school. I was worried about my mom.

00:08:08 - 00:08:11 | Speaker 4:

Yeah, those kids can't lie about doing their homework. She knows if they did their homework.

00:08:12 - 00:08:13 | Speaker 5:

What's going on, Jerry?

00:08:14 - 00:08:15 | Speaker 1:

Hey, how are you doing?

00:08:15 - 00:08:16 | Speaker 5:

Good. What was your snow day food?

00:08:16 - 00:08:27 | Speaker 1:

my snow day food was ramen noodles but they had to be beef flavor and hot dogs yes those are the

00:08:27 - 00:09:04 | Speaker 4:

best ramen noodles so i love in my house meg will do the grocery shopping on her way home from picking up her son from school so he always gets to he always sees stuff so he'll pick out oh my gosh i want this i want that so they always come home with cool kids foods and mojo was talking about how amazing my dinner looked last night on Instagram because Meg's an amazing cook. Every night it looks great. Yeah, but sometimes they'll come home like yesterday he came home with this TV dinner for kids with the brownie in the middle. Oh, it's the best. Oh my God, and she was making this amazing meal and I was like, oh, I kind of want that TV dinner. I know. And they're so nostalgic. Yeah.

00:09:05 - 00:09:42 | Speaker 5:

My other thing to reminisce about with Snow Days, Jerry, was you always knew where everybody in the neighborhood was because their boots were at the front Entrance of the person's house That was the cool mom And the cool mom Would always be the mom who would make Hot chocolate for the kids Like if she was willing to put hot chocolate on For you and we used to have a mom Down the street from us That Mrs. Krasnowski Who would make like Hot chocolate not from the packets Like the powdered stuff or anything like that She would make it fresh with chocolate Like chocolate box And milk and everything

00:09:42 - 00:09:46 | Speaker 4:

It was delicious Mom of the year

00:09:46 - 00:09:59 | Speaker 5:

I think I'm going to stop on the way home And I'm going to say to my son Who's 17 years old and will probably sleep until 5 tonight Because that's what they do I'm going to say, wake up I'm going to make you fresh hot chocolate And he'll look at me like, I don't want hot chocolate

00:10:00 - 00:10:07 | Speaker 1:

I want to go to Starbucks. You've got to record this for TikTok. I want you to go knock on his door and be like, do you want to build a snowman?

00:10:08 - 00:10:16 | Speaker 2:

I'm going to do it. Oh, my God. And he'll be like, F-bomb this, F-bomb that. Melissa, what's up? It's Mojo in the morning.

00:10:17 - 00:10:48 | Speaker 4:

Hi, Mojo. Hi, you guys. Hi, Shannon. Hi. So my kids are 10, 8, and 5, and I've been working full-time in an office along with raising them since my youngest was born. So for about six years. and I actually get laid off in the winter for once Christmas break starts and then through January and then halfway through February. So it's literally the worst thing ever when they get a snow day because it's literally the only time that I have throughout the year to get anything done or just do anything that I want when they're at school.

00:10:49 - 00:10:50 | Speaker 2:

Yeah. You know.

00:10:51 - 00:11:14 | Speaker 4:

So, like, it's just terrible. Like, I literally throughout the whole year, I'll plan the things that I want to get done When I'm laid off So when I text in the morning When it starts to snow I'm like, okay, so we're going to be here all day We're going to go sledding Or we're going to do all these things Like I said, I have three So then I'm like, okay I'm counting down the days that I have left Until I won't be laid off anymore And I'm like, I just lost the day

00:11:14 - 00:11:24 | Speaker 2:

Yeah By the way, there's a lot of parents that are like Mojo, I hate when my kids are home Like, there's all these parents that are texting Because it causes problems, too, for working parents

00:11:24 - 00:11:34 | Speaker 4:

It's just the timing I would love my kids being home But it's just that I only have that crunch time Right, that's understandable

00:11:34 - 00:11:47 | Speaker 2:

Listen, I used to hate it when my kids would be home Because I'd come home from work exhausted And all I wanted to do was watch Law & Order SVU On USA And I'd be like, give me the TV You little bastards What's up, Nancy?

00:11:48 - 00:11:49 | Speaker 5:

Hi, how is everybody?

00:11:49 - 00:11:50 | Speaker 2:

We're good, what's going on?

00:11:51 - 00:12:10 | Speaker 5:

Great So I texted in that I'm a substitute teacher and I work every single day and my daughter's dance team is going to the high school dance nationals in Florida. She's a senior. So a lot of the responsibility falls on us and I'm so happy to be able to take some time to be able to

00:12:10 - 00:12:25 | Speaker 2:

prepare. You got a day off. Very good. Did you find out like right away that your district was off? Last night. Yeah, it's the best when they do that a day ahead of time. That's that Ken Gutman guy over in Walled Lake. That guy's canceled school four days before storm.

00:12:26 - 00:12:41 | Speaker 1:

No, he used to get roasted He's not the superintendent anymore But he used to get roasted by the kids Because they would go after him on Twitter Because he wouldn't And they'd be like He'd do the whole drive around at 5 in the morning thing To see conditions And he'd be like What are you driving around for? It's four inches of snow

00:12:41 - 00:12:46 | Speaker 2:

It's funny He does have a new job, doesn't he? Like works for Oakland County Or the county or something like that?

00:12:46 - 00:12:54 | Speaker 1:

Oh, my girls Because they went to that school district And they'd be like Kenny G Dad, don't you know him? Can't you call him and tell him to just cancel?

00:12:54 - 00:13:00 | Speaker 2:

I used to give him crap because the Catholic schools don't close as soon or as fast as the public schools do.

00:13:00 - 00:13:04 | Speaker 1:

No, you get to school and pray that you're not going to fall off the road getting there.

00:13:04 - 00:13:18 | Speaker 2:

And I think it's because the priests live close to the school or something, you know? They're not aware of how bad it is. They're in the rectory or something, yeah. All right, well, it's a snow day today. Megan, what are we at level at in Toledo? By the way, is it, because it looks like the snow's not coming.

00:13:18 - 00:13:22 | Speaker 1:

It started up again. Oh, it is again? It's heavy again. The heavy stuff's going to be this afternoon. Yes.

00:13:22 - 00:13:26 | Speaker 2:

The heavy stuff's not coming down for quite a while. Do you remember the movie? Name it.

00:13:26 - 00:13:31 | Speaker 1:

Oh, Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. No, no. I don't know what it is.

00:13:32 - 00:13:32 | Speaker 2:

Caddyshack.

00:13:32 - 00:13:33 | Speaker 1:

Ah, okay.

00:13:33 - 00:13:35 | Speaker 2:

What's going on, Megan? What level are we at?

00:13:35 - 00:13:56 | Speaker 3:

So Erie, Huron, Putnam, Seneca, Wood, and Wyandotte are all on a level one. And the rest of Northwest Ohio still isn't under anything. I think the snow was coming a lot later than any of us anticipated. It just started falling pretty heavy right now. and it was i thought it was supposed to start at like 6 a.m this morning so i think we're a little

00:13:56 - 00:14:12 | Speaker 2:

bit later than we my app got changed i used to use dark sky all the time and dark sky got bought out by apple so that it's now the apple app yeah and i swear to you i got rid of it i look at it too well yeah they got rid at the first of the year now they changed it basically over i don't think

00:14:12 - 00:14:27 | Speaker 1:

these apps are as good as they used to be well the apps using all the same models and information that the tv stations have but it's just you can't predict this stuff more than a few hours in advance they could pretend they know two days out but they're lying looking at let's let's see here

00:14:27 - 00:14:44 | Speaker 2:

when is the heavy stuff in toledo do you want me to explain the levels again uh you keep to the michigan people yeah do that because michigan people are fascinated by the fact that you guys rate your snowfall like hurricanes in the yeah and it kind of shocks me that you guys don't do

00:14:44 - 00:14:59 | Speaker 3:

this because to me i mean i was raised this way but it totally makes sense so level one is like the lowest level it's issued when the roads are hazardous maybe the snow is blowing or drifting but under a level one um it really just means roads are icy use caution right

00:15:00 - 00:15:35 | Speaker 6:

Level two is a little bit more severe. It's issued when the roads become hazardous enough that you should only drive if necessary. I also believe if it's a level two and you get in an accident, you don't call for police unless there's injuries. Just exchange information. When a level two is issued, reach out to your employer. See if you should report to work. Otherwise, stay home. Level three is what's very serious around here. And you can actually get pulled over, get a ticket or even get arrested. So you don't go out on the roads unless there's an emergency or it's necessary. Yeah, so you will get pulled over.

00:15:35 - 00:15:57 | Speaker 4:

Here's what it says. It says the weather app says that in 40 minutes from now, which we got to get off the air fast then and get out of here. We're going to all use that as our excuse. From 40 minutes until about 3.30 or 4 o'clock in the afternoon, it's going to get really bad in both of our cities here. And Mike's still, by the way, looking at you.

00:15:57 - 00:15:58 | Speaker 5:

It's Wednesday.

00:15:58 - 00:16:00 | Speaker 4:

This is nothing. You guys get this all the time.

00:16:01 - 00:16:03 | Speaker 6:

I'm going to be here all day today. I'm going to get stuck.

00:16:04 - 00:16:15 | Speaker 4:

You're like the people that live, Mike, Grand Rapids. I never would have thought this, but Grand Rapids is like Vail, Colorado. You guys look at this as, you know, this ain't nothing. I got chains on my tires in July.

00:16:16 - 00:16:22 | Speaker 5:

Yeah, but that's why you guys are like, oh, you hate snow? You live there all the time. No, it's because we deal with this, and it's bad all the time, or it just doesn't happen.

00:16:22 - 00:16:32 | Speaker 2:

I still don't get why Michigan runs out and clears the shelves at Meijer when they know in six hours the roads are going to be clear. We're not going to be snowed in for a week.

00:16:32 - 00:16:35 | Speaker 6:

We haven't even had snow this year except for once.

00:16:35 - 00:16:58 | Speaker 2:

But we're excited about it, aren't we? Yeah. No. Remember, Megan's, the Toledo alert system and the numbers remind me of, remember when Homeland Security, after September 11th, they did the terrorist alert? The colors. The color system is like red is severe, orange is high and elevated. And you're like, what am I supposed to do with that information? Like, as a citizen, why are you alerting me?

00:16:59 - 00:17:06 | Speaker 4:

Yeah, they should do the alerts. Just give me details on the sledding hills and how busy they're going to be.

00:17:06 - 00:17:10 | Speaker 2:

Are Pop-Tarts almost cleared out on the shelves, or do I have another day to go get them?

00:17:10 - 00:17:17 | Speaker 4:

Right. It's funny when you see people, like, going, why are these people shopping like this, and they have no idea that the weather's going to get bad or something's happening.
