Mojo on the Morning Show, your home of the War of the Roses. We're going to bust a cheater coming up here in just a little bit. I am starting to think that there is such an obsession that it is unhealthy. And that obsession is the obsession that our executive producer Lydia has with Taylor Swift. Because she has been unable to talk to the last, I don't know how many hours now. It hasn't been long. It was after the show yesterday that she started getting the whole tease that Taylor Swift was coming out with something. Yeah. And then it's just gotten to a point now where I'm getting like inundated. I'm getting spammed with Taylor Swift stuff since Taylor Swift went on and teased or did the New Heights podcast, which, by the way, when does that podcast get released?

Tomorrow at 7 p.m.

Okay. But we have the gist of it, which is Taylor's going to be on the podcast for the first time, right? Am I right in saying this to you, Lydia, the official fan of the Taylor Swift fan club?

Yes, and that will be her first appearance on New Heights.

How old are you, if you don't mind me asking, Lydia? I always forget.

27.

She's 27 years old, and she's been to more than 27 Taylor Swift concerts.

Just about. Is it really that many, Lydia? No, it's about like 17.

17. Okay, still.

Oh my gosh. That's a lot, yeah.

She's been to 17 Taylor Swift concerts. Yeah. As well as, besides concerts, you have traveled the world. You've gone to, you know, sneak into her mansions and places that we know of.

Did I hear you this morning say you already bought merch for this new album that hasn't even come out yet?

I did. So she dropped a vinyl, a cassette, and then a poster and a CD. So I just bought the poster and the CD. I'm 20 bucks into this new era.

I think there's something wrong.

Why? What's wrong?

I just think that there's, it's too much. like it's gotten to a point now where i think you got to grow out of a phase like i think every kid has a phase where they get excited over something like i remember when kids were like people were really into like boy bands and stuff but you grew out of it and then eventually you you would grow out of it and you'd become an adult and you would kind of have like normal life look at all of the

women who i mean if i could go to vegas right now and see the backstreet boys at the sphere i would

die and go to heaven and i'm 42 years old but you would die and go to heaven but still you've lived a life where you haven't continued to follow them how many backstreet boys concerts would you go to

not 17 right i mean back in the day i probably went to like 10 at 20 really yeah oh 10 backstreet boys concerts oh easily yeah and i would drive for them well do you guys compare this to sport

sports like do you think that maybe you've gone to too many lions games i well it's like you're

being a fan that's a great yes that's a great comparison lydia you're a fan you buy the merch

you want to watch it on tv but that's uh there's a documentary that comes out that's something that

hits any age you know what i mean that brings a city together taylor doesn't bring a city together

are you kidding you know how many people traveled here and how many people were banded together in

the city of detroit to see her come on stop making sense um 844 mojo live 844-665-6548 is there anybody that thinks that there's a little bit too much of an obsession and this is the reason why lydia cannot get on with her life it's taylor swift is the reason um or do we have other fellow swifties out there or do people uh think that uh she's right and maybe she's not even as big a fan maybe you're bigger maybe you've been to more shows taylor swift concerts than tay than uh lydia has been i can't believe you haven't changed her name yet they wouldn't that be interesting if that's the next step i mean if lydia all of a sudden changes her name to taylor

ashley what's up hi so love you guys good morning we love you too all right so but okay so why is it okay not okay for taylor but it's okay for like Ozzy Osbourne, rest in peace.

No, that's worse than even Taylor. Listen, I think we're not – let's not go there because I will say to you, I think any obsession of going to this many things is off the charts. It's wrong. It's bad.

I don't think it's wrong because there are much worse things that people could be doing with their time and money. Fantasy football.

Why do you guys got to bring sports into this?

sports should not be left out alone there's fantasy baseball there's fantasy hockey like

it goes all crazy guys that do fantasy hockey and fantasy baseball are morons there's only one fantasy sport and that's fantasy uh football what about the guys that spend 11 hours a day

playing video games well they're all that they used to play when they were you know in middle school and they're they're 35 years old and still sit in front of the tv and play them all day with

you losers i don't i don't do any of that stuff those people play those video games all day long listen are you just a big taylor swift fan and that's why you're doing it or you're a big lydia

fan absolutely i mean my i have a seven-year-old daughter that is now a self-reclaimed swifty and we we just can't afford to go to any of her concerts or anything but i i love her um but i'm i would not say i'm a swifty i just i have a it just we need more love in the world

this is by the way bringing love in the world you think is that what it is or making her rich

i'm not talking about taylor i'm just talking about people in general let people like what they like and do what they do and spend their money on stupid things instead of you know

let's make love not bombs what's going on jess hi

hey um well so i've seen back trickways over 30 times whoa okay that's that's impressive since since i was you know like 16 however i can't afford to go to the sphere and i'm totally dying for that i know but i will tell you a story of like being in high school and Like, the day the Millennium album dropped back in 99, me and my friend rode our bike to Meijer at, like, 4 in the morning before school just so we could get it.

Did you ever do something like that, Lydia, for Taylor? Did you ever ride your bicycle somewhere to go and...

Oh, hell no. I'm not getting on no bike. No, but it's... I mean, it's obviously... We're in 2025 now. But Lydia is the one who, if you know there's going to be a new merch drop, you are on your phone or computer.

Absolutely. Ready to go. I leave alarms on. I do everything I can.

Hey, Melissa, what's going on? We're talking about how Lydia has an unhealthy obsession with Taylor Swift.

It's not unhealthy.

Okay.

I've been to see since 2008. I can't even count how many times I've been to see new kids on the block. In May 2008, I slept on the streets in New York to see them on the Today Show. Wow. I've been to Vegas. I've been to Toronto. I'm from Canada, but I've been to Toronto. I've been on their cruise. And in November, they're doing a residency in Vegas as well. I'm going back to see them in Vegas overnight. That's it. Yeah, lifelong fan. Wow. Yes, we leave at 10 o'clock Sunday morning, and we're back Monday. Okay, great. Let's just meet them. So Lydia, she has to live out her childhood, whatever.

She's an adult now.

I know, but my thing is, now that you're an adult, you get to do what you want to do. You don't have your parents telling you what to do. You can live out your childhood by following Taylor Swift around. I follow new kids around. You don't have the responsibilities of a kid right now. Do what you want to do. Good for you.

I just sit there and I think to myself that something was missing in her childhood, and maybe her parents making her an only child ruined her. Like, maybe that's the issue here. she needed siblings that could say no you're not going to another taylor swift concert and maybe i need to be that for you i need to be the older brother to tell you that this is ridiculous taylor swift anonymous what's going on alicia how you doing good how are you guys good i don't know if you heard this but taylor swift has retired she's no longer doing music we've got the

exclusive right now don't tell lydia what's going on actually lydia and i have uh actually really bonded over taylor swift and i think what it is the difference um between taylor and like all the other i guess you could say singers is that she sings about stuff at the same time as we're going through it like us as women now are really close in age to her and so when taylor was going through breakups and being cheated on so were we when she was feeling unwanted so were we and that's something that we could look to somebody that you know felt like we did um but then also she it feels like she brings a lot of um like love into this world i went to vienna last summer to try to go to one of her well i had tickets to her concert and that was the shows that got canceled because of the terrorist attack and that was almost exactly a year ago wow and i was in this facebook group um and everybody started messaging each other this year saying you guys are in my thoughts you guys uh we're gonna you know we're like it really brought these people of all ages all genders from around the world together and it's i know it sounds like hippy dippy stuff but

But it's nice to have a new world. Listen, I think we need a therapist for you and Lydia to get through all your emotional baggage that you guys both have. And I think that Taylor, for some reason, is what you guys are thinking is getting you through it, but you're not getting through it. She doesn't care about you guys. She just cares about making money. What's going on, Angie? Hi, how are you?

Hi, Mojo. Good morning. I love you guys. Good morning.

We love you, too.

Well, and actually, Mojo, I am a therapist, so that's kind of interesting you just said that. Okay. I'm just wondering, how many rounds of golf per week? Oh, my God, I love you.

No, come on. Now you got me.

Is that a certain threshold there? No, no, no. Yeah, how much money have you dropped on golf clubs and golf outfits? That's exercise. I'm getting exercise.

I'm not... Come on.

That sounds like self-care. That is self-care and self-love is what that is. Just like Taylor Swift.

I would never want you as my therapist. You make too much sense. I don't like this one. I'm worried, though. What's going to happen? We're going to need you, Angie, when Taylor Swift decides that she's leaving the music world and Lydia doesn't have something to spend all her money on. What is she going to do next?

She will find something else. People will always find something else to spend their money on. You're right, Angie. And that will just give her an opportunity to grow through that. And that's what people do because we are resilient.

Oh, my God. You make way too much sense. All right. Thank you, Angie.

I hate that. I know. I hate it, too. I love you, guys.

We love you, too. Take care.

Hey, it's Taylor Swift with Mojo in the Morning.

Ugh. Yuck. Ugh. All right. Well, you know what? If Taylor can guarantee that she'll give us the ratings that we got back in, what was it, 2023, was it? 2022. Yeah, 2022. 2022. If she can give us those ratings that she gave us in 2022 by doing a tour and all the rest of that stuff, then I'll be okay with it. But if we don't get it, then I'm still going to be having issues with it.

Then will I lose my job?

No, listen.

There we go. See, I took it too far now.

No. Lydia, by the way, this is the only thing that scares me with her is her savings account is going to be dwindling down. She's been doing a great job of saving money up right now.

Oh, you think I have a savings account?

Well, that's crazy. Well, we're going to get you.

I'm joking.
