All right, it's Mojo in the morning. So I've got kind of a dilemma here, and I'm going to ask you guys your thoughts on this. I love, there's a particular restaurant that I really, really love. and I've loved it for a long time. They have one in Detroit. I don't think they have one in Grand Rapids or Toledo, but they should open one up in both of those cities because they're so good. Have you guys ever heard of a restaurant called Ruth's Chris?

00:02:29 - 00:02:32 | Speaker 5:

Oh, yes. I do have one here.

00:02:32 - 00:02:39 | Speaker 4:

They do have a Ruth's Chris in Grand Rapids? Yeah. Is it right there? Is it across from Van Andel or where is it?

00:02:39 - 00:02:42 | Speaker 5:

It's right by Mojo's, actually. Oh, it is? That's right.

00:02:42 - 00:02:49 | Speaker 4:

I've always gone to the chop house Anytime that we've gone out To get steak down there

00:02:49 - 00:02:50 | Speaker 5:

That you've ever had in your life

00:02:50 - 00:02:57 | Speaker 4:

They do something, I don't know what it is Do they put like a stick of butter On top of the thing

00:02:57 - 00:02:58 | Speaker 5:

And they like sizzle it in the butter

00:02:58 - 00:03:07 | Speaker 4:

It is so damn good Have you guys ever been to it? Oh yeah Megan, you don't know what you're missing Mike, explain to Megan why it's so delicious

00:03:07 - 00:03:18 | Speaker 5:

They're absolutely right It's one of the juicy Maybe juicy is not the right word But the juiciest steaks in the entire world, it's this big, thick hunk of meat. And every single cut is really, really good.

00:03:18 - 00:04:01 | Speaker 4:

And I just absolutely fall in love with the damn thing. I don't know what it is about it. And I never get to go to the place. We've gone out to dinner and stuff, but we always end up never choosing that place because it's always impossible to get a table sometimes. They're always kind of busy and stuff. And in Detroit, they're kind of forgotten. They're like in an office building. So I always kind of forget, oh, that's where that place is. Well, here's my thing that's going, why am I echoing back at me? Mike, are you playing me back at myself again? No, I don't think so. Okay. All right. I was echoing back at myself, unless I'm losing my mind. No, I heard it too. You're good. Okay, thanks. So I am back echoing at myself.

00:04:01 - 00:04:03 | Speaker 5:

Maybe we're both nuts.

00:04:03 - 00:04:06 | Speaker 4:

For Christ's sake. Who's echoing me? Hello? Hello? Hello?

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

It's got me.

00:04:08 - 00:04:15 | Speaker 4:

Hello? Hello? hello okay all right if it's you mike i'll come and get you and then i'll stop off at the roost

00:04:15 - 00:04:20 | Speaker 5:

chris i want to make sure that it goes back at you

00:04:20 - 00:04:52 | Speaker 4:

so i got kind of a dilemma and i don't know if you guys are the type of people that would do this so i was invited to go eat at roost chris and the only thing that i have to do is sit for a couple of hours while I'm eating and have conversation with this mortuary company that wants to try to sell me funeral plots and caskets and all of my needs when I die.

00:04:52 - 00:04:54 | Speaker 5:

How did you fall into this?

00:04:54 - 00:05:00 | Speaker 4:

I have no idea, but I got a thing sent to me that was wonderfully...

00:05:00 - 00:05:18 | Speaker 2:

It was like, you know, one of those things where you open it up and you think, oh, my God, what is this thing? And you open it up and it's got a Ruth's Chris gift card that's in it. And I'm like, holy cow, somebody remembered my birthday. And I thought to myself, I'm getting something free for my birthday. So I pull out the card and I rip it off and it says, good for a dinner for two. I'm like, oh, great.

00:05:19 - 00:05:20 | Speaker 3:

I mean, it's expensive there.

00:05:20 - 00:05:33 | Speaker 2:

And then I read the fine print that is on the bottom. Good for a dinner for two after a sit down with the people from. and I can't remember what the hell the mortuary company was. It's a funeral home timeshare. That's exactly what it is.

00:05:33 - 00:05:38 | Speaker 3:

No, do not do it. I'll do it. No. We do? Oh, yeah. Are you kidding me?

00:05:39 - 00:06:02 | Speaker 2:

So the good news is that you can schedule it to a time that works to your satisfaction. They want to do it. They have to do it Monday through, I think, Thursday because the weekends are probably crazy at that place. And they said I could schedule any time. I could do a lunchtime or I can do a dinnertime. And they say that they'll just sit there And there's no obligation You don't have to buy anything You just got to sit there and listen to them Well, the obligation is

00:06:02 - 00:06:16 | Speaker 3:

The obligation is They take up 16 hours of your day I will buy you a gift card to Ruth Chris So you don't have to go to this I know, but From someone who has Accidentally sat through a timeshare presentation

00:06:16 - 00:06:18 | Speaker 2:

And who was it that put you up to it?

00:06:18 - 00:06:22 | Speaker 3:

Do not do it Me I was young and dumb Oh, okay

00:06:22 - 00:06:27 | Speaker 2:

I thought you were talking about the time Remember I made you sit through the timeshare, that one timeshare thing? Yes. It wasn't a timeshare.

00:06:28 - 00:06:30 | Speaker 3:

It was a telecommunications company.

00:06:31 - 00:06:31 | Speaker 2:

It was one of those.

00:06:31 - 00:06:32 | Speaker 3:

It was a pyramid scheme.

00:06:33 - 00:06:33 | Speaker 2:

Pyramid scheme things, yes.

00:06:33 - 00:07:04 | Speaker 3:

And I lost $250 or whatever I lost from you. No, but my girlfriend, Julie, and I, this was right when I started here at this radio station, actually. We went to Mexico for like a little girl's trip. And at the airport, this very nice man came up to us and said, do you want a limo to your hotel? And I was like, yes, I do. The whole next day, we sat our butts in a timeshare presentation because we had to. It was terrible. To pay for the limo.

00:07:04 - 00:07:07 | Speaker 2:

It would have been cheaper to actually just pay for the limo.

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

It was terrible.

00:07:08 - 00:07:11 | Speaker 2:

Just like it would have been cheaper just to pay for the Ruth's Chris.

00:07:11 - 00:07:19 | Speaker 3:

My dumb friend fell for it, and now she's stuck with this timeshare she can't get rid of. Oh, she actually bought it? Well, she didn't have to buy it. Oh, she was pressured.

00:07:19 - 00:07:20 | Speaker 2:

They must have been good salespeople.

00:07:20 - 00:07:23 | Speaker 3:

And they fed us drinks. It was bad. Don't do it.

00:07:23 - 00:07:24 | Speaker 2:

Yeah.

00:07:24 - 00:07:25 | Speaker 3:

I will buy you a steak.

00:07:25 - 00:07:37 | Speaker 2:

I don't know. I'm kind of like Megan in this one here that it's just sitting there listening to them talk. And honestly, I'd probably be pretty inquisitive. Well, it might bring me some radio content. Yeah, Megan.

00:07:37 - 00:07:53 | Speaker 4:

That's what I was thinking. You can voice memo record the entire thing. Just have your phone on the table and then ask the most inappropriate questions about death to see how uncomfortable you could make these people while eating the best steak of your life. Have you ever been a part of a timeshare presentation, Megan?

00:07:54 - 00:08:11 | Speaker 3:

Yeah. Okay, I was going to say, because they get you good. You think it's going to be like an hour or two. Right. And then at the end, you're like, oh, one more thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. One more thing. And then nine hours later, you're still, that steak has, you've pooped out the steak, and you are still listening to the presentation. You've already digested your meal.

00:08:11 - 00:08:20 | Speaker 4:

But hear me out. Every time they say, whoa, whoa, one more thing, you go, okay, one more side. So if they have one more thing, you order one more side.

00:08:20 - 00:08:21 | Speaker 2:

I think I'm getting the cream spinach.

00:08:22 - 00:08:25 | Speaker 4:

The mac and cheese sounds delicious. Thank you.

00:08:26 - 00:09:01 | Speaker 2:

I just can only imagine, though, you're sitting there and you're talking about your death and your demise. You know, excuse me, can you pass the butter, please? You know, and I'm going to have the ribeye. I would get the tomahawk. I don't know if there's a limitation as far as how much you can order, but I think it's that they'll pay for two people. I said to Chelsea, I go, Chelsea, will you do this with me? And Chelsea said, no. She said, same thing that you said about just pay for a meal if you want a meal. But I said, it would be kind of fun. And then I thought, maybe I'll bring a friend or something with. Can you imagine me bringing Jeff Sackwell with, my buddy Jeff Sackwell?

00:09:01 - 00:09:04 | Speaker 3:

Oh, they would kick you out of there so fast. That's actually the trick.

00:09:04 - 00:09:09 | Speaker 2:

They would say, you got it for free. Get out of here. Or Megan, I would take you with, too.

00:09:09 - 00:09:14 | Speaker 4:

Yeah, and I could be your young wife who's just trying to kick you into that grave.

00:09:15 - 00:09:20 | Speaker 2:

Yeah, come on, let's do it. David, what do you think about this? Should I do it for the free meal?

00:09:21 - 00:09:36 | Speaker 1:

You're damn right, Mojo. You go in there and get the free meal. You wait an hour, and you just bounce. You just quit. You just don't take any other answer. You just stand up and leave. Thank them for the meal and gone. I've done this many times. Really? Have you?

00:09:37 - 00:09:41 | Speaker 2:

What's the best things that you've gotten from one of these little timeshare type of things?

00:09:43 - 00:09:52 | Speaker 1:

Steak dinners. Really? How many boring safety meetings or company meetings have you sat through? Did they feed you a very nice steak dinner? That is so true.

00:09:53 - 00:09:56 | Speaker 2:

That is so true. I've done a lot of boring meetings with salespeople.

00:09:56 - 00:09:57 | Speaker 3:

And we get just pizza.

00:09:58 - 00:09:58 | Speaker 2:

And I get, yeah.

00:09:58 - 00:10:02 | Speaker 3:

Or little Tom. Big Tommies

00:10:02 - 00:10:04 | Speaker 1:

However big or little he is

00:10:04 - 00:10:06 | Speaker 2:

Mojo I'll be your friend

00:10:06 - 00:10:17 | Speaker 3:

There you go That's right I'll bring you with and then what we'll do is We'll both excuse ourselves to have to go to the bathroom And we'll go right to the valet and get our car And get the hell out of there

00:10:17 - 00:10:21 | Speaker 2:

I'm being straight up I'm leaving I'm not interested Thanks for the steak

00:10:21 - 00:10:30 | Speaker 1:

I like that At the end I start crying and I go You're saying he's going to die and then just have a total meltdown.

00:10:31 - 00:11:02 | Speaker 3:

All right. Well, thank you for the call, buddy. I appreciate it. Thanks, Bojo. I like 248 says, it's a pre-selected meal. They'll give you chicken. No, come on. No, no, no. You order steak and you order it bloody. I want my steak bloody. I'm going to use this product that you're selling me as soon as I possibly can. So give me the highest cholesterol thing that you have on your menu. You know what? Maybe what I'll do, Mike, maybe I'll go through this process and I'll see if I can get them to do it in Grand Rapids with you.

00:11:03 - 00:11:06 | Speaker 5:

I would love to. I'll do 8 million. I do meetings all the time.

00:11:07 - 00:11:10 | Speaker 3:

Megan, if they had one in Toledo, I'd do it with you unless you want to drive up here.

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

I will drive up, too. Yes, I'll drive up. I will drive up in a hurry.

00:11:14 - 00:11:16 | Speaker 3:

You would do it just for a free meal?

00:11:17 - 00:11:18 | Speaker 1:

Just for the content.

00:11:18 - 00:11:28 | Speaker 3:

What would be better? Be honest with me on this. Sitting through a timeshare talk about your funeral or having to go to lunch with Steve Gabara from Sotford?

00:11:29 - 00:11:34 | Speaker 1:

Oh, I'd much rather go out with Steve Gabara from Sotford and Holly, where he's got massive deals on his own.
