Mojo on the morning show. Yesterday morning we were having a discussion. I think it might have been right around this time. And I remember, Mike, you were talking about, what was it at this time? Was it the crying room? Yeah, the crying room. That's right. Okay.

Seems to be a pattern here.

So it's interesting because yesterday you were talking about the crying room. Now you're talking about what makes you cry, and it actually almost made you cry the other night.

It happened twice. It happened at the Pistons game. I was talking to listeners and walking around. I think Spike was right there, too, when this happened. Oh, I watched it all go down. Yeah, and then it happened yesterday when I was at Key of Grand Rapids North. I was walking, just walking, talking to people or whatever, and this woman walked by me quickly, And it probably was my fault. There was a lot of people, but it was probably my fault and how I was walking or whatever. And she stepped on my shoes. And she stepped on the back part of my shoes. And I could feel the back of my shoe, like, fold sideways.

Now, let me say this because I was walking with Mike when it happened. I thought somebody punched him in the back. Like, his reaction, I thought, oh, my gosh, what happened? I thought he was hurt. And I looked back to see, what did someone do? Like, did he just get stabbed? Did someone shank him?

Oh, she stepped on my shoe. okay so for the last two years i wore like crocs like we were in covid i just wore crocs yeah crocs i didn't wear anything else i wore like i haven't upgraded my shoes in many many many many years and i finally have started doing it again like slowly just buying a pair of new balances and buying a pair of nikes and just slowly slowly like rebuilding my my shoe game again. And so I'm wearing newer shoes. So when she stepped on them, and it always happens when you get new shoes, when she stepped on them, I instantly just went, oh my god, I want to say something. You can't be mean about that. I was just like, oh no, it's totally fine. No, but it's not. No, it's not. Was it me? No, no, no, no. Because I ran into you. Okay. No, no, no, no, no. Spike was right, I mean, literally right there.

I was there. And then we lost him in conversation for the next 10 minutes. Like, he could not focus on anything else. He didn't even remember what he was talking about.

I think we were looking for food and I couldn't even think about food at a time like that. Again, what shoes were you wearing? I was wearing New Balances that time.

New Balances? I thought they were like custom Jordans or some collectible thing. Doesn't matter.

New shoes are new shoes. The New Balances that are

out right now are the coolest ones. I love them with the big logo, the New Balance logo. And aren't they a hundred bucks?

They're like every other sneaker. They're not like thousand dollar shoes doesn't matter they're a hundred bucks yeah but i mean i thought the way he reacted i thought they were like some rare collectible shoe or something like you could

feel the the back or the bottom of the shoe it felt like it ripped off i thought i was gonna have that flappy thing at the bottom of my shoe because i thought she ripped it off and i wanted

to it makes my skin i was thinking about it i've got uh a klutzy way to myself you guys have probably noticed it i kind of bump into things and step on things and i feel bad because i feel like i step on people's feet all the time and i never knew that they were crying uh over their shoes getting damaged i thought they were crying because the weight of my foot on there and there is nothing worse than that but i didn't realize that you got that particular over somebody stepping Anani.

your shoe and maybe scuffing it up.

Mike, you're going to cringe at this. I did this to my ex-boyfriend. We went and got ice cream, and I dumped my entire chocolate cone on top of his white Vans. Oh, KP. He was so mad. Well, he's not mad. He was like, it's all right. That's all you can say. No, it's not.

That's all you can say.

Or girls know the pain of you get new high heels, for example, and you trip or something, and you get the crease near the toe of them.

and then... You mean like what shoes are used for, to walk? Yeah, that's the spike.

I'm with you on this one. No, I hate that. People go, my shoes look like they've been on the ground. Right. No, you don't understand what I'm talking about then. Go buy some art

if you just want to look at something expensive. These are for walking.

Once they crease, are they done?

They're not done, but it's like the scoff. You're like, dang it. They don't look great anymore.

I do agree with you, Mike, on like shoelaces and stuff like that. Once your laces look bad, it's hard to get it off or spilling like hot sauce is like a bad one too. It's the first thing people notice when they walk up and see you is your shoes. No, it's not. I guarantee it is. I guarantee it's not. What do you think it is

then? People's faces. I look you in the eye. I don't look at your feet and go, oh, dirty shoes.

Oh, I see a crease. You immediately go, oh, wow, those are nice. I like those. Megan, what's up? Listener Megan, hi.

Hi, I was just going to say I cannot believe that Mike just said Shoe Game and New Balances

What's wrong with New Balances?

New Balances are the dad shoe Not anymore Oh, well now because everybody wants to wear them And they're cool again We have to treat them like they're nice

Just don't step on them Champion sweatshirts for $7 at Walmart

What's up, Kat?

Hi Yeah, excuse me. I'm a huge sneakerhead, and I wrapped these new Jordan 4s. They're called the Rastas. They're limited edition, only for females, and they have, like, these crazy colors on them. So I went to go see my friend while he was at his job, and he kicked my shoes.

He kicked them.

And we wound up getting into a little scuffle.

What way did he kick them? Intentionally, or he was just walking and got too close?

No, he kicked them intentionally.

Okay.

Just because he knew that it would make you upset?

I would kick him right in his nuts. Yes.

I was close to that. I kind of like, you know, gave him a little ring around the neck, and we scuffled jokingly and whatnot at his job, and I'm like, you never kick somebody's shoes.

Yeah.

I mean, they were $250.

On a scale here of the people on the show, Kat, we're going to kind of like, I think Mike's shoe game and Lydia, who is our behind-the-scenes, you know, director, or did she just talk to you on the phone? She's a total sneakerhead. KP, you're a little bit, right? Now, you got a little bit of a shoe game going.

I go crazy with shoes. All my friends make fun of me that I buy new shoes. I bought two pair last week. I have way too many shoes, but I'm buying them to wear them.

But are yours cool shoes like Mike's shoes?

I don't know what cool shoes is. You mean expensive shoes?

No, you wear like Converse and stuff.

No, last week you told me about those Hoka or Hova or whatever. The hokas, yeah. The hokas. So I went and tried them on. They were like walking on a cloud. They were so comfortable I bought a pair. I'm going to wear them and use them as intended. I'm not like, oh, my gosh, don't look at them. You might get them dirty. I know.

A good friend of mine, he actually buys and collects shoes, but he's always like, you know, you buy shoes to wear them, which is understandable, of course. Yeah, yeah.

And I also like that Mike says, like, the Converse aren't – I mean, Mojo says the Converse aren't cool. Well, they've been around for 85 years. They're doing something right.

I know. I think they're great for some people.

Converse, like, they actually look better when they're dirty.

Yeah.

Yes, for sure Converse.

No, no, because I said this in the studio a couple of days ago, and I said it's embarrassing to walk or rock clean white vans or Converse, and y'all were like, y'all wear dirty shoes, Rhett, and now she calls it and says this, and you defend her. That's not what we said.

No.

I didn't say that.

No, I think that we kind of joked with Megan about that. It was just a joke. But, AJ, what's going on?

oh hey how's it going guys good what's happening so i took this girl well we met up like downtown and we were going to see this concert and we were having fun everything was good and she got a little too drunk and she spilled her red drink all over my new white air force one

And I got up, and I left her there. Wow. Wow. Oh, my God. Wow. Terrible.

I have over 600 pairs of shoes, and only, like, 150 of them have been worn. So. Wow.

We got so many extra. Just wear another. You got to let her go because of that?

What's your most valuable shoe?

I have the Dior Jordan 1. I paid like eight grand for it.

Oh, my God. AJ, what size foot do you have? If you're close to Mike, would you let him borrow?

Ten and a half.

Now I'm like...

If I find out next year that AJ's got a GoFundMe going to pay medical bills... At Christmas, I treated myself. I made myself a custom pair of Converse. You can go on their website and start from scratch and build a custom pair, and it's the same $70, $80 that you would pay in a store for a pair of Converse. I wear them around, and I know they're going to eventually get dirty, even though I made these custom one-of-a-kinds, but it's shoes. That's what happens. They get dirty.

I agree, but it still does not hurt your soul, no pun intended, when somebody steps on your shoes.

When you just buy them, when you just watch them. There's two different kinds of shoes. There's the shoes that you wear every day and the shoes you collect. And I get that there's a big collection game. It's like Birkin bags. I get it. I don't get Birkin bags. Well, they're an investment. I agree with you. It doesn't make any sense. No. But the facts are they hold their value. I get it. Yeah. But again, you don't see people walking around with Birkin bags if they don't know that there's a chance it could get ruined.

Like you were them to the Pistons game that have 18,000 people jammed through trying to get through the gates and the beer line and all that stuff.

Right.
