Okay, I want to bring something up here right now. I got to tell you guys that I don't know necessarily if I can do what he asked me to do, but I wanted to bring it to you guys and see what your thoughts were. This weekend, I was up in Michigan State where I got a chance to hang out with my son, Luke. Go green. And got to see some of his friends, his roommates, his buddies that he is in Theta Chi with, including his roommate, Ass Juice. Who, by the way...

00:02:53 - 00:02:54 | Speaker 1:

Wait, did we get a picture of him?

00:02:54 - 00:02:57 | Speaker 7:

I do. I posted a picture on our stuff.

00:02:57 - 00:02:58 | Speaker 1:

Okay, that is him.

00:02:58 - 00:03:19 | Speaker 7:

He's in the three picture with Luke and his buddies, if you want to go back and look at the post from this weekend. But that's Astuce, a.k.a. Henry. That's his real name. Is that not the greatest name? Oh, that's so cute. Henry, a.k.a. Although I want to call him Hank, because I think that would be kind of fun, because the kid is so damn cool.

00:03:20 - 00:03:24 | Speaker 5:

Did we figure out where ass juice came from again? Can you remind people?

00:03:25 - 00:04:42 | Speaker 7:

That was the name that he got from the, by the way, breakfast has been delivered, Zach, just so you know that. Breakfast has been delivered. The name came when they were pledging. I think they give them all names. Okay. And I think Luke got the name Little Mojo or something like that. So he got lucky to get a name that wasn't so bad. But he got ass juice as his name. so i walk up to him because i was having conversation with a couple of the other people about how great he is and how you know much fun he is and i said to him i go so ask juice and he goes um real quick uh he goes mr carbell yeah he goes actually calls me mr carbs because they call luke carbs okay so he goes mr carbs he goes i'd like to just go by juice right now if you don't mind and i said to him i go okay juice wait hold on you can't change your name yeah like you can't do it so i wanted to ask this question what was the nickname that you got and always had maybe even still have but you tried to change because you don't want anybody to know you as that is there any listeners that have ever had a nickname that they needed a nickname name change because they were so worked up about they didn't like their nickname uh 844 mojo live what'd they call

00:04:42 - 00:04:59 | Speaker 3:

See, back in the day when we had radio interns, we named them terrible, terrible, terrible things. And when I first started in radio, they called me intern lower back pain because my boobs are so bad. That is awful. I really wanted to get away from that one.

00:04:59 - 00:05:00 | Speaker 7:

There must not be a...

00:05:00 - 00:05:03 | Speaker 2:

attorneys in Toledo. I was going to say, I'd call it attorney if I had.

00:05:04 - 00:05:21 | Speaker 5:

Lower back pain because you lift heavy things right here. You're keeping the weight of the show is how they justified it was, yeah, carrying the weight of the show. And then intern French maid because French maids have big boobs. Oh, they double down. You could be rich right now. Right. I wish. That would be nice.

00:05:21 - 00:05:27 | Speaker 2:

Did I hurt on that station at the time? No, you did. Really? Oh, my God. That's insanity. Nasty work.

00:05:27 - 00:05:28 | Speaker 1:

Is there a statute of limitations?

00:05:29 - 00:05:33 | Speaker 2:

Yeah. No, I don't think so. I don't think there ever is a statute of limitations.

00:05:33 - 00:05:38 | Speaker 1:

What about the people who give themselves nicknames? Oh, you can't do that. I hate that.

00:05:38 - 00:05:40 | Speaker 5:

You are so douchey if you give yourself your own nickname.

00:05:40 - 00:05:57 | Speaker 1:

There's a girl that I went to every school with, and all of a sudden she started calling herself a nickname, and it was just so weird. What was the nickname? I'm not going to say it, because she probably listens to the show. It wasn't even a big nickname. It was a variation of her name, and it was so weird because I'd known her as something else her entire life.

00:05:57 - 00:06:01 | Speaker 5:

You know who has a nickname that he hates, but we all love?

00:06:01 - 00:06:03 | Speaker 2:

Uh-oh. Who? Your call has been full.

00:06:03 - 00:06:05 | Speaker 5:

Our boss, Tony Travato. Oh, yeah.

00:06:05 - 00:06:07 | Speaker 2:

What is it, Shannon? Oh, no, no. I can't remember it.

00:06:08 - 00:06:11 | Speaker 5:

Y'all are terrible, terrible, terrible people.

00:06:11 - 00:06:18 | Speaker 2:

I think he should have that name when we go up on stage at Jingle Ball. Shannon, you were given a nickname today that I disagree with wholeheartedly.

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

Thanks, Ken. Yeah, someone called you Stout, and I don't know where that came from.

00:06:23 - 00:06:25 | Speaker 2:

That, by the way, was a mistake. I'm just going to sip my water.

00:06:26 - 00:06:29 | Speaker 5:

I was going to the bathroom and he goes, I just want to let you know you look really beautiful.

00:06:33 - 00:06:47 | Speaker 2:

By the way, she did then go into the bathroom with a big thing of toilet paper. So I think she was going in there to take a stout duty. Mark, how are you doing? Can you change a nickname, Mark?

00:06:49 - 00:07:01 | Speaker 4:

Yeah. I mean, throughout high school, my nickname was Patty Melt because of my last name. So I stuck with that for four years, and then finally I grew up and said it's time to go by.

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

What's your last name?

00:07:02 - 00:07:15 | Speaker 4:

My last name is Patterson. So they would call you Patty Melt. I actually think that's cute. And in high school, I wasn't like the smallest of kids. I was, you know, a little short, stocky kid. Stout. Yeah, someone would say.

00:07:17 - 00:07:25 | Speaker 2:

We used to want Patty Cake. It could have been worse. Am I supposed to say this person's entire name? Shanika Nunu? Shanika Koo? What is it?

00:07:26 - 00:07:27 | Speaker 5:

Shanika, but her nickname was Nunu.

00:07:28 - 00:07:35 | Speaker 2:

Oh, I thought it was Shanika Nunu is what her name is. I didn't realize that. I'm sorry, Shanika. I thought that was the full name. What's going on?

00:07:36 - 00:07:49 | Speaker 3:

No. Oh, hey. So my name is Shanika. That's my birth given name, but everybody calls me Nunu. And I tried to change back to Shanika growing up. Like, now that I'm older and nobody will call me by my real name.

00:07:50 - 00:08:02 | Speaker 2:

They're like, no, you're Nunu. For the rest of your life, you're Nunu. What about even like when you're graduating from high school, you know, or you're getting married, do they say Nunu when they announce you?

00:08:04 - 00:08:18 | Speaker 3:

They say Nunu. Even at jobs, they call me Nunu. Oh, my gosh. Did this come from the movie ATL? No, that's the thing. I had my name before that movie came out. And it's N-U-N-U, not N-E, or however she spells it. Okay.

00:08:19 - 00:08:25 | Speaker 2:

By the way, that's wild that even your job calls you that, when legally it says Shanika, probably, on your record.

00:08:26 - 00:08:36 | Speaker 3:

Yeah, I just tell them, I'd be like, just call me Nunu. That's what everybody called me, because they start calling me Shaniqua, Sharika, like, they start calling me everything but my name. Like, they can't pronounce my own name.

00:08:36 - 00:08:37 | Speaker 5:

Oh, that's infuriating.

00:08:37 - 00:08:38 | Speaker 3:

So I just tell them to call me Nunu.

00:08:38 - 00:08:45 | Speaker 2:

Wait, that's infuriating. that's me trying to pronounce people's names when they come on the show all the time yeah i think

00:08:45 - 00:09:06 | Speaker 5:

there's a difference between that and there's a lot of miscommunication to lydia's like defense those phones that she uses are genuinely terrible and it's hard to hear but if you work somewhere and i say this kind of shunika like i i work somewhere where i've been here for 14 years and people still misspell my name it's like you gotta learn it at some point oh they're not doing it

00:09:06 - 00:09:19 | Speaker 2:

purpose like that kid uh uh brandon brendan i i called him the wrong name for uh two years i had no idea i thought his name was uh i thought his name was brandon but it's brendan you say his

00:09:19 - 00:09:23 | Speaker 1:

name wrong so often i went to high school with him i started calling him the name you call

00:09:23 - 00:09:32 | Speaker 2:

i'm telling you it was because of paul corvino paul corvino would call everybody the wrong names when he was the boss here. What's up, Nate?

00:09:34 - 00:09:35 | Speaker 4:

Hey, what's going on?

00:09:35 - 00:09:36 | Speaker 2:

What's happening?

00:09:37 - 00:09:40 | Speaker 4:

Not too much. I'm on my way to work.

00:09:41 - 00:09:44 | Speaker 2:

Nate has a great name. What was your nickname in high school?

00:09:45 - 00:09:49 | Speaker 4:

Oh, they used to call me Nut Sack. Oh, God. Why?

00:09:50 - 00:09:51 | Speaker 2:

How'd you get that name?

00:09:52 - 00:09:55 | Speaker 4:

Because they saw my balls.

00:09:55 - 00:09:59 | Speaker 2:

They saw your balls. Hey, that's one of those ones where they... I'm not going to ask.

00:10:00 - 00:10:15 | Speaker 9:

got to keep it, and you got to have that be the name that they announce when you're going up. And the next person for a diploma, Nutsack. Grandma going, what did they call him? What's up, Brian?

00:10:16 - 00:10:21 | Speaker 6:

Hi. Hi, Brian. So my nickname in high school was White Dwight.

00:10:22 - 00:10:27 | Speaker 9:

White Dwight? White Dwight. Who gave you that name?

00:10:27 - 00:10:41 | Speaker 6:

It was our basketball team that gave me the name so you were white dwight yeah who was why bro because um i was built like dwight howard

00:10:41 - 00:11:32 | Speaker 9:

I want to say it's near like Wayne State. I could be wrong. Really? What's going on, Dustin?
