i feel like i've got teenage boys and one of them's been added to the list and it's kevin from our show kevin reminds me of like my my sons he reminds me of uh luke particularly because shout out lukey baby luke luke is luke's a 19 year old guy and it's always like you know why can't we do and that's not fair like stuff like this kevin just pulled a that's not fair moment with me where he was like not understanding that in radio set it up mojo in radio you buy your own headphones or you or you bring your own headphones to work that's part of your tools of the trade why is that because that's just how it is that's your answer that's how it is the radio kevin thinks that hold on let me dip the music here for a second cut that stuff off kevin thinks that the radio station now mind you kevin's been in radio now for a year and a half but you also interned back in the day at jlb so you saw what it was like you worked with professionals like uh mr chase coco and foolish who are legends did they not tell you that in radio you carry your headphones to work like you carry your lunch you know what i mean like go back to that's just the way it is or that's how it's always been why is that the philosophy because the the radio company does not buy you had kevin wants iheart to supply headphones here kevin and kp got in this discussion about how i don't understand why this radio company doesn't buy us headphones and i looked and Shannon, you and I looked and Megan actually looked at each other like, okay, I bought my I paid for these. No, no, no, don't let me in

00:04:17 - 00:04:19 | Speaker 8:

because that's not how I feel. I got a question

00:04:19 - 00:04:49 | Speaker 7:

for you. Did you also buy that microphone you're using? No, because the microphone stays here, but the headphones go with me. Okay, so it's portable. That's why I have to buy it? No, because it's not portable. I buy I want the best product to be able to make this show better. Got you. So I pay for it myself. Okay. Do you think that a doctor who who is a doctor goes in and just uses somebody's stethoscope are these the best microphones in the industry i think they're okay i think we could have done better oh so so are you

00:04:49 - 00:04:54 | Speaker 8:

gonna go buy a better version of a microphone maybe no you're not i got you stuck see this is

00:04:54 - 00:05:10 | Speaker 1:

kind of how i thought about because i i've been thinking about this since i feel like this discussion started last week And. and carry it into today. And I think about how, because those headphones that you have, Kev, are from here, right? Correct. We do have headphones that are just like laying around, but they're crap. No offense.

00:05:10 - 00:05:13 | Speaker 5:

No, KP said that she wasn't able to get any headphones from here.

00:05:13 - 00:05:33 | Speaker 1:

Because I think about this like doctors and nurses are supplied scrubs from the hospital, those blue scrubs that we see, green, whatever color you think they are. But a lot of them now want their, they want figs or whatever the new brand is. I don't know. It used to be figs. And so that's kind of how I think of it is, like, I didn't want those headphones, so I spent the money to buy these.

00:05:34 - 00:05:36 | Speaker 3:

I don't know anybody who supplied scrubs, though.

00:05:36 - 00:05:41 | Speaker 1:

Oh, really? See, my parents, my entire family worked in the medical field, and they always just got scrubs from the hospital.

00:05:41 - 00:06:05 | Speaker 5:

This is my issue. It is totally fine if you are, if you want, quote, unquote, better headphones. That's perfectly fine. What I'm saying is, at a baseline, you should be provided headphones. If you don't like them, that's okay. But to show up to work at a radio station where the only two things I need are the ability to have my voice heard and to be able to hear your voice, I think those things should be provided.

00:06:05 - 00:06:15 | Speaker 3:

But then your barber and your hairstylist don't show up and expect them to have clippers and scissors. Like, you bring your own tools. Have you ever gone to a job and you had to buy the uniform? Yeah.

00:06:16 - 00:06:16 | Speaker 5:

Nah.

00:06:17 - 00:06:19 | Speaker 3:

See, I have. So have I. So that's right.

00:06:19 - 00:06:28 | Speaker 4:

I get your point. I totally get your point. It's true. Your barber brings his own scissors to the party. He doesn't have a scissor supplied for him.

00:06:28 - 00:06:33 | Speaker 5:

Yeah, because it's his business. He's an entrepreneur. He started his own business. So because he started the business.

00:06:33 - 00:06:39 | Speaker 3:

No, but I don't know any hairstylist who doesn't own the salon who still doesn't own their tools. They have to buy their own tools.

00:06:40 - 00:06:43 | Speaker 4:

Hold on a second. George wants to side with Kevin on this one. What's up, George?

00:06:45 - 00:06:53 | Speaker 2:

Yeah, I agree with Kevin. You know, you can't do your job without headphones. They should be supplying at least, you know, the minimum for you.

00:06:53 - 00:06:55 | Speaker 4:

George, this is just how it is.

00:06:55 - 00:07:02 | Speaker 5:

So if I want to bowl, I've got to bring my own pins and go bowl? If that's what I want to do? That's what we say? No, no, I agree. They should be supplying heads up.

00:07:02 - 00:07:04 | Speaker 4:

Did you call it a bowl or a ball? What is it?

00:07:04 - 00:07:08 | Speaker 5:

If I bring my own bowling ball and pins, I've got to do that?

00:07:08 - 00:07:15 | Speaker 1:

It is an interesting point. Ever since I've been in radio, I've just supplied my own headphones. I've never really thought about it.

00:07:15 - 00:07:20 | Speaker 4:

Every single job I've ever had. I want to call Bob Pittman. I'm going to call Bob right now. There is no way. Are you really?

00:07:20 - 00:07:21 | Speaker 1:

Do not. Oh, my God.

00:07:22 - 00:07:24 | Speaker 4:

I swear. Pull him up. I'm calling Bob Pittman.

00:07:24 - 00:07:33 | Speaker 5:

There is no way that Bob Pittman shouldn't have Bowles or some other professional, Dre Beats. They should be sponsored by IRA. We should be sponsored by them.

00:07:33 - 00:07:42 | Speaker 3:

I don't disagree with you, but why is it that some jobs you have to provide your own tools for and some you don't? I know. That's the more interesting conversation. I have been thinking about this since we started talking about it.

00:07:42 - 00:07:47 | Speaker 5:

Because there are no standards, and we just accept whatever has been because that's the way it has been.

00:07:47 - 00:07:57 | Speaker 1:

that bring their own knives like they bring a roll like right like a leather roll of their knives and their tools that they like to use to work with them we gotta demand better we gotta

00:07:57 - 00:08:02 | Speaker 5:

demand better i'm i'm gonna i'll be damned if i gotta buy headphones to do this job are you

00:08:02 - 00:08:13 | Speaker 4:

kidding me are you like that's what i have to do here's the deal though you what you do is just negotiate a better deal and buy your own headphones do you do you want them to also buy you your uh

00:08:13 - 00:08:27 | Speaker 5:

mode of transportation to get her every single day no but if my job requires me to hear things and to say things the same logic that i have that i didn't have to buy this microphone is the same exact logic why i shouldn't have to buy these headphones this is an important functionality

00:08:27 - 00:08:39 | Speaker 4:

of my position i'm calling bob pitman let's go i'm calling i'm calling he's our ceo of this company he's a legend in broadcasting i'm gonna ask bob pitman hello hi bob pitman good morning

00:08:40 - 00:08:40 | Speaker 2:

Good morning.

00:08:41 - 00:08:45 | Speaker 3:

Oh, my God. I think I just mad at the aneurysm.

00:08:46 - 00:08:50 | Speaker 4:

Hey, Tony, are you listening to us right now? Are you listening to the station?

00:08:51 - 00:08:56 | Speaker 2:

Well, I was, but you're like background, so I wasn't listening to the intent conversation.

00:08:56 - 00:09:00 | Speaker 4:

Kevin thinks that the radio company should pay for his headphones.

00:09:01 - 00:09:02 | Speaker 1:

For everybody's headphones.

00:09:02 - 00:09:08 | Speaker 4:

Yeah, for his headphones, everybody's headphones. He thinks that they should provide the tools for us.

00:09:08 - 00:09:14 | Speaker 2:

let me ask the rest of the crowd how many times the company has bought your headphones yeah

00:09:14 - 00:09:27 | Speaker 5:

yeah how many why does that matter well that that doesn't change anything listen tony tony here's my point how many times have you purchased microphones for the rest of

00:09:27 - 00:09:32 | Speaker 2:

the crowd to do their functional jobs oh we got you see now you're making too much sense out of

00:09:32 - 00:09:51 | Speaker 5:

that's what i'm saying tony my whole thing is in order for me to perform at the highest levels i want to be successful in this role the organization wants me to be successful in this role if we don't have microphones there are no radio in order for me to hear my counterparts to hear the audio to hear whatever's being played i need to hear how can headphones be a part of that

00:09:51 - 00:09:56 | Speaker 4:

i can't hear you i'm sorry i took my headphones out there you go yes mojo you remember those

00:09:56 - 00:09:59 | Speaker 2:

headphones we got when we first got into radio like when the company

00:10:00 - 00:10:02 | Speaker 6:

would provide headphones. They were horrible. Wait, what was this?

00:10:02 - 00:10:04 | Speaker 8:

They were horrible. It was like tin cans.

00:10:04 - 00:10:05 | Speaker 7:

It was bad.

00:10:05 - 00:10:07 | Speaker 6:

It was like together and some string. I'll get you some of those.

00:10:07 - 00:10:10 | Speaker 8:

So the solution was just don't buy anything.

00:10:10 - 00:10:11 | Speaker 7:

Hold on a second. Real quick, Tony.

00:10:11 - 00:10:12 | Speaker 8:

That was our genius idea.

00:10:13 - 00:10:15 | Speaker 7:

John's on the phone. John, what do you do for a living, John?

00:10:16 - 00:10:17 | Speaker 2:

I'm a plumber.

00:10:17 - 00:10:21 | Speaker 7:

Do they provide your plumbing equipment, or what do they do?

00:10:21 - 00:10:31 | Speaker 2:

No, there's a list when I first started of all my hand tools I had to buy myself to bring in, and then all my power tools, batteries. Now, if they go bad, they'll replace them, but I start to buy it all up from myself.

00:10:31 - 00:10:35 | Speaker 8:

So if they go bad, they'll replace them. How are you going to get your toilet fixed by John

00:10:35 - 00:10:37 | Speaker 7:

if he doesn't go out and buy it?

00:10:37 - 00:10:44 | Speaker 8:

Just because that's the way it is does not make it right. That is not okay for me to get hired by a job and then I got to go pay for everything?

00:10:44 - 00:10:47 | Speaker 7:

Hold on. Cheyenne, what do you do for a living?

00:10:49 - 00:10:50 | Speaker 5:

I'm a dog groomer.

00:10:50 - 00:10:53 | Speaker 7:

And do you buy your own grooming stuff?

00:10:55 - 00:11:07 | Speaker 5:

Yeah. And, I mean, like, my company supplies, like, the basics, like, if some of our stuff were to fail. But I like to think of it like investing in your name and your brand, even though you may work for somebody else.

00:11:07 - 00:11:15 | Speaker 8:

I believe that, too. But she said invest in the basics. She also said the basics. I think having a microphone and headphones are the basics of radio.

00:11:15 - 00:11:23 | Speaker 7:

This isn't Blaine Fowler in the Blaine Fowler Morning Show. This is Mojo in the Morning. We get the best of the best. Carrie, are you there, Carrie?

00:11:23 - 00:11:57 | Speaker 3:

yes hi carrie what's going on um i just wanted to say that we as nurses have to bring our own stethoscopes oh do you really touche yes i did not know that thank you so are you happy with that and buy your own shoes yeah we do our own shoes uh not scrubs but uniforms but if you're in a specialty area you have to um not supply your own scrubs but you do have to still bring your own stethoscopes and you can't do your job without a stethoscope. That's crazy, bro.

00:11:57 - 00:12:05 | Speaker 7:

Hold on. Kristen. Kristen is a teacher. Kristen, what's up with teachers? Hi.

00:12:05 - 00:12:14 | Speaker 6:

Teachers have to buy everything. Oh, yeah. We have to decorate our classrooms and get in trouble if it's not perfect. I even buy my own paper.

00:12:15 - 00:12:31 | Speaker 8:

It's disgusting. You know what? You know how the Michigan Lottery says a percentage of every lotto goes to the schools? It should be a special fund a percentage of that where the lot of money should go to teachers so they don't have to buy their own stuff you should not have to buy things to do the function the basis of your job

00:12:31 - 00:12:39 | Speaker 6:

i agree i've never seen a dollar of that money hold on uh hind what do you do for a living hind

00:12:39 - 00:12:54 | Speaker 1:

is it hind or hand hand yes i'm a nail tech and we uh we like bring our uh basic supplies to the salon yeah but the main thing to use it in the um salon itself like their tools or stuff but The basics, we bring our own.

00:12:55 - 00:13:01 | Speaker 7:

So, Kevin, when you get those big old freaking nails of yours clipped by Hind, you know that?

00:13:01 - 00:13:07 | Speaker 1:

Yeah, like the clippers, everything, yeah. The basics, we have to bring our own, and, like, we just buy it ourselves.

00:13:07 - 00:13:08 | Speaker 7:

Kevin's got it so bad.

00:13:09 - 00:13:20 | Speaker 8:

So, next time, so when the Lions play, I guess they should bring their own football to the game, too. Right? That's what they need to do. When we go to the Pistons, if Cade doesn't bring the basketball, I guess we're going to play, right?

00:13:20 - 00:13:26 | Speaker 4:

That's a rumor. He got broad shoulders, broad shoulders, do well in suits.

00:14:21 - 00:14:23 | Speaker 3:

Not a rumor, by the way, Tony. That was part of my weekend.

00:14:23 - 00:14:27 | Speaker 7:

His tux, though, by the way, was a Carhartt tux. I've never seen anybody with a Carhartt tux.

00:14:28 - 00:14:29 | Speaker 4:

00:14:50 - 00:14:52 | Speaker 2:

Good morning. How are you guys?

00:14:52 - 00:15:15 | Speaker 3:

Oh, my God. My heart just dropped again. Victor, damn it. I just want to say, Kevin, it's Tom. If you could go out to Five Below and get him a pair of Spider-Man headphones. Let's do it. If you don't like that, Kevin, you could just quit. It's better than not having anything. Coming from a guy who won't pay $5 to go to Belle Isle to take his son to Belle Isle. Not doing that either.

00:15:15 - 00:15:31 | Speaker 7:

Not doing that either. He didn't even part of my taxes. By the way, what do you pay for? If you won't pay for headphones, won't pay to go to Belle Isle, what do you do pay for? Gas. And I'm about to go electric. You pay for Hennessy. I know he pays for Hennessy. I've seen him pay for a lot of Hennessy over time.

00:15:32 - 00:15:34 | Speaker 3:

I'm getting rid of the toilet paper, too. Yeah.

00:15:35 - 00:15:47 | Speaker 7:
