Mojo on the morning show. So Mike had a guy that's a friend of his frantically call him up. And what was the story, Mike?

So he shot me a text. And if you're going to tell me something really important, let's do it in person. kind of person so he texts me and he's like hey man i got a chat with you uh what are you doing tonight you want to you want to come out i'm like oh i gotta i'm gonna give him a call and then if he says it's something serious i'll say yeah you know what i'll be out there because i like to do it in person so i call him up and he's like i can't really talk about it right here and i can tell there's like noise in the background so he must be at whatever whatever bar he was at the time he's like can you meet me at vitally's and and come have a drink and i'm like i don't go out on a school night you know i can't i don't go out that much like if i if i go out it's like a conversation that i've had with ellie a week in advance and we've planned you know that night like last minute is it's not necessarily my thing all the time so you got kids you got family you got work you got all that stuff yeah yeah yeah so i'm like okay man and i tell ellie i'm like hey this is i don't know what's going on but it sounds serious and you know i my first initial thought was health like there was a health thing and i'm like i gotta go in person because if i never go person i just do it over the phone it just doesn't feel right to me so i i'm like i'm gonna go out for a little bit so i go meet him and i walk in the door and he's surrounded by like three or four of our friends and i'm like what is going on this has got to be really serious he's trying to get you out of the house for a guy's night well that's what i thought too and i'm like that's like a and it's a weird way to do it but okay i mean like if you just asked in advance there's a good chance i'm gonna do it i just gotta i gotta make sure would ali be upset if you came home and she

said what was so uh wrong and you said nothing he just wanted me to come out for a guy's night

she would have just said why didn't he just say that like yeah she's totally i mean she would have been mad that because she would have thought that i made something up for that like she would have thought in that moment but like we just talk about it like i just say sure hey hey i'm gonna go do this and anyways so i sit down and i'm like what's up man what's going on guys and i'm like you just want to hang out huh and he's like no i got everybody here because i wanted to tell you something oh boy so i'll look at each other and he winds up and he's like i'm getting a divorce oh and i'm like oh man i'm sorry i'm you know i'm sorry to hear that he's like yeah i just wanted to get everybody out so that i could have like a little impromptu divorce party i knew none of you would come if i said that right now what so he wasn't looking for support he wasn't going

struggle he just wanted to have some drinks no he wanted to celebrate the fact that he's getting a divorce like yeah you're right if it was just to support like hey man i just needed you guys to talk to i'd be like of course yeah of course again did you have any idea that this guy was going through struggle no not a clue not even a little bit and at all i would have never guessed in a million years were all the other guys as equally shocked as you were yeah we all kind of looked at each other like so that's why you asked us to all come here and so they just were like we're out anyways we're gonna have drinks i am thinking about like i need to go home man like this is the night this is what i i came out for like you could have we could have had a conversation on the you know sidebar about this and then then sat down and had a conversation about it and then but like this is like you wasted my my one night out you know what i mean yeah we wasted the good That's a surprise on you, I guess. Yes, exactly.

Exactly. I'm the opposite of you. If somebody has something important to tell me, tell me over the phone. Really? So that I don't give the bad facial expression or the bad reaction that they want. You know what I mean? Yeah, you want to tell me something, you know, tell me something on the phone.

But we know on the phone you're not listening.

That's also true.

That might be one of the other reasons, too. But don't make me actually have to drive all the way to somewhere to give me that detail. It's like firing somebody. you know, bosses and stuff. Like the bosses, don't wait until Friday before payday. Just fire me when you know you want to fire me. Put me out of my misery.

I get that, but I wouldn't want a phone call that just says, hey, you're fired. I would rather, like, be here. We talk face-to-face, handle it, like, you know, and then we move on. I have to hear, and if it's good or bad news, I have to be in person.

So this guy, this buddy of yours, Did he file for the divorce Or did she file for the divorce

She filed for it I guess Wait she filed and he's happy about it I guess so yeah I'm sure there was more going on But what I was told is that there was Like he just gambles a lot I guess And it got to a point where She didn't know what he was doing And while we're there He's buying all these things from the bar Like the gambling things from the bar Kino or whatever

And I'm like what oh boy so now you're supporting you're aiding and abetting to what caused the divorce i was

so irritated at the time too i was just like you should have used my draft kings account so you're saying he's single yeah that's what you want megan you want to you want a gambling guy somebody who's irresponsible with their finances we love stability in our 30s somebody kind of

pulled that on me once where they were like hey i need your help can you swing by after work and they sounded and they were they sounded really concerned i'm like yeah of course and they're like yeah i just really need you if you if if you can do it today it'd be really awesome just come by and i'm like okay they wanted help hooking up electronics and they're like well you're the you're the guy with surround sound knowledge and i'm like dude you made it sound like you were going through a crisis and they're like well crisis before the super bowl well they couldn't have like done it

over the phone they couldn't have called you or facetime or just just say can you help me hook

up my speakers and i would have been like yeah dude friday i'll come over have a six-pack like you made it sound like you needed to be today i had so much to do here here's a question can you

deliver bad news through text message or a phone call like is it okay to be able to deliver bad news and here's mike's friend who is getting divorced buddies are all hanging out could he just say guys i'm getting divorced like is that too personal of a thing to do through a text message um or like can you deliver like you know i've had people tell me things on the phone about an illness or something that's going on and i've had that happen before you know but well in both of

our cases in both stories they they made it sound like they couldn't tell us for a reason they were going through a struggle there was something going on i need to talk to you in person so you know being a good friend mike's going to be there when in fact the dude wasn't going through a struggle he just didn't if he knew if he told that mike and everybody else they might not show up at his little party so that's why he was being secretive because he wanted everybody to drink with they're

not going to aid and abet his uh his issue that's going on um when you got divorced did you tell people through text or did you call people and tell people like uh um or or in person what did

you do well with family and close friends and everybody really important in my life i told them in person because i know there's gonna be questions and there's gonna be a conversation that's hard to and as soon as you text somebody they go oh my god i'm calling you like so i just call them when i have time instead there's people that i'm distant with that might have like text me that i haven't talked to in a year and i go oh well you know give them the news because we don't

talk that often it's funny because i whenever i have news to give it's usually you know Chelsea's usually the first person that I give the news to, and then the second person after that is usually one of my kids, like Joe, possibly, and stuff.

Let's keep going.

My sister, Tracy, usually, or Pat, are usually the people. The barista at Starbucks. Megan, you're far down that list, but I will tell you in the group chat. I'll tell you all at the same time.

Well, she won't read that.

But when you go through a moment, like the divorce, Spike, who was the first person that you told him or because you actually you guys didn't do the divorce right away you moved out right right away or whatever yeah yeah so who's the first person that you said once the decision

was finally made i mean after talking to our kids i think it was the parents and the siblings okay

what about uh any uh anybody here in the studio megan wants to know if she was one of the first

are you one of the last to know work i i didn't tell you guys for a while

I'm always the last to know the juicy stuff. It makes me so mad.

Mike, who will you be the first to tell your next big news story? And hopefully it's a good news story, too.

Don't say Megan. I don't know. TMC. Yeah, yes.

You know what? The next time I have big news, I'm not telling any of you. I'm just going to post it on social media. And then I'll refuse to talk about it on the air.

I do love those people that do that, though. that can keep it so long to just post it. Like the people that tell you that they're having a baby and you find out on social media and you think that you're good enough friends with them to get a phone call.

We got yelled at. Allie didn't tell one of her aunts, like really close aunts. Because we did the family thing on both sides and it was right around the holidays and then I instantly just told you guys, I mean I told a couple other close friends, but then I told you guys and then we went on the air with it and she never told her aunt and we had a birthday party recently. Oh, man. That's so dumb.

I'll say it because you can't. Listen, I'm not attacking your aunt personally, but those people that internalize it and make it about them, it's like, dude, you got news. Maybe you forgot, or maybe there's other stuff going on.

But how close are you to her? She's very close.

She should have. She should have. It wasn't like she was, I don't know. She should have.

I could see that. I could see where you'd be upset.

You look at it and you go, okay, well, there was a mistake made. You forgot.

Sam?

Good morning.

What's going on?

Every time someone passes in our family, I'm the one that has to relay the messages to my siblings. So to the point where my little brother now answers the phone going, who died?

Oh, jeez. Oh, boy. I don't want that. I'm telling you. Isn't it sad when that happens?

Yeah, but I'm the only one that ever knows. So I've got to relay the message to everybody through the phone. And, yeah, he answers the phone now with who died.

Did you ever see those posts that were made over the holidays? where kids were just randomly telling their parents of a celebrity dying that didn't die.

Yes.

I cannot tell you how much fun it was to watch those.

Oh, my God.

I loved it. The moms, it was like, oh, my God, oh, my God. Reba McIntyre.

They were picking these old celebrities.

And some of them were so obscure celebrities. It was like, oh, no, oh, no. And then it was, like, Bobby from The Big Life or something, you know, whatever. Oh, my God, they died? Like, mom reacting like that. Kelsey, your voice is got. Oh, I'm voice is guys, too. Hi, Kelsey.

Hi. So kind of going along with Mike's story here, I am currently going through a divorce after 10 years. And I called my best friend who lives in a neighboring state. And I said, hey, hon, you know, sorry to be calm about bad news, but I'm getting a divorce. She's like, oh, my God, me too. And so we're talking about it, talking about the situation. I waited a couple days, and I called my other best friend who was on vacation. I'm like, hey, hon, sorry to ruin your vacation. I'm going through a divorce. She's like, oh, my God, me too.

Oh, my God.

And my two best friends are all going through a divorce right now.

Wow. And we are loving it. They're loving it.

Got some support there.

There's something in the air going on right now that you guys are breathing. And you say you're all loving it. So are you guys going out, like, hanging out and partying and drinking and stuff?

Well, because my one friend is in a neighboring state, we kind of picked a date in the middle of July, and we're all just going to go have fun.

Where are you going to go?

We have no clue yet.

That's a Vegas trip if I've ever heard one. It's time for you guys to go out there. Those are the people that you run into in Vegas, and they're like, We're all going, yeah, and the girls are like, all right, don't get same room. You guys are going to be in separate rooms. What's going on, Misfit Nicole? Hello, Nicole.

Hey. Morning, everybody. Good morning.

What's going on?

So I had a friend, and I probably should be voice disguised because I'm telling her business.

She had a divorce party, and she left with her husband that same night. Wait, wait, wait.

So she had a divorce party.

So my friend had a divorce party. Her husband shows up at the divorce party, and everybody's like, you know, oh, my God, like, you know, like, what is he doing here? You know, and, like, we didn't want her to see him. They wind up getting back together.

Oh, my God. So what do you do if you buy her a gift for her divorce party and you find out that they're together?

I mean, we didn't buy her anything. We just, you know, like, we had, like, penis cupcakes. But, you know, and, you know, it's not like that's for Randy. You know what I'm saying? Because it's like, hey, she's single. She's about that.

I actually kind of think that that's cool, though, that they got back together.

No, I do, too. I just was like, what's the point? We could have just had a party.

Right, exactly. Jordan?

Yeah.

What's going on?

so i used to it was a lawn care business it was just me and the one guy so it wasn't really a big job but he kept saying it's like oh you and your wife should come over we should get her sometime it's like yeah yeah mentioned it a few times like a week later he called me it's like not even on friday it's like you should come over right now like uh okay you're like 45 minutes away like i'm really nervous i'm like why do i want to go with so i thought it's like i can't you just tell me over the phone he goes yeah it's actually not working out i'm gonna have to let you go oh my god he fired he was like oh no i asked him it's like it's like you wouldn't be to drive 45 minutes across town to walk in your door so you can hire me? He's like, uh, yeah, I guess we could have just done this on the phone.

Oh my god. Lucky for me, Mojo never invites me over. Yes.
