Shannon, when does Wes come back from their trip that he's on?
I think he lands tonight at like midnight.
Wow.
Yeah, he's been gone for a while.
What a trip. I've been following his post on social media, his story on social media. First off, it looks amazing.
It looks beautiful. This is the trip that I talked about last week that he's taking with his son, my stepson, Kieran, who's going to be a sophomore at state this year. And they are doing like a camping road trip through Utah, Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming. So like Jackson Hole, Yellowstone, Grand Teton. Yeah, they're doing all the national parks.
It's funny. When you mention Yellowstone and Grand Tetons, I couldn't tell you on a map where.
I think that's right. I think that was the right park. I would know. Yeah, Jackson Hole. They went to Big Sky, Montana.
Like I know Montana and then, you know, the state and stuff. I probably couldn't pick it out.
It looks beautiful. Like those places are all on my bucket list. I just don't want to do it in.
An RV.
His thing's not an RV though.
It's a van. It's not even an RV. It's a van.
Can I be honest with you? It's bougie. It's really nice. It's a bougie van.
It is. It's like a Mercedes Sprinter, but it's been decked out with a bed and a kitchen.
He showed their transportation, and I looked, and I'm like, oh, my God, I'd love to do this.
They don't have internet very often. You would not love to do it.
Really?
Yeah, his service has been so super spotty.
He seems very risky, too. Yeah, he's dumb. What do you mean?
He's dumb because I said to him and I love my husband. I feel like I always have to say I love my husband and I do. But I said to him before he left, because we had just gotten done talking about that grandfather that got tossed into the air eight feet by a bison at Yellowstone. And I said, please do not be in my prep on Monday morning. Don't be dumb and try to take a selfie, you know, next to some crazy wild animal. And what is he doing? He posts videos of himself with a grizzly bear. Yeah. You guys saw it, what, 10? Yeah. Maybe 10 feet away. He did the same thing with moose, bison. You are an idiot.
One of the pictures, and I don't know what animal it is. Is it a moose? One of the pictures, it looked like the man, the old man that got knocked in the air. It looked like that same animal.
And then yesterday, he kept FaceTiming me. So he had service and I was getting my nails done. So I couldn't answer the phone.
Wait, hold on.
What?
He texted you and you're getting your nail.
He was FaceTiming me. Well, my nails are this.
I know, but you can't have the nail lady like pick up your phone.
I think that's so rude. And also my nail. I was like getting shellac. What if he was getting eaten by an animal? Well, I told him not to be an idiot and he was being an idiot. And that's why he FaceTimed me. He's like, oh, because I when I got out, I was like, oh, I'm so sorry. I was getting my nails done. I didn't have my phone right in front of me. And he said, it's okay. We were just around a bunch of caribou. And I wanted to FaceTime you with the caribou.
I'm like, in his defense, these animals look like they could not care less. he's right there like this what does a caribou look like i don't know if they're nice or not
but i feel like they're just uh blissfully unaware that humans are right do you know what a caribou
looks like no a caribou look at that that's like a moose oh wow that's not what i thought a caribou's got antlers that will like literally maul you and like moose for example people think they're so cute
they're very very very mean and aggressive so it's funny so wes uh he can't hear you the man literally could have been calling you to tell you this is my last wish for you
well i needed to get my nails done and the shellac he could have been telling you that
you have just inherited his three jeeps that he has how many jeeps does he have anyway by then
Like, look at that. Look at that. They look so cute. What are you doing?
How does Wes not have shower capabilities, but he's always looking like he's George Clooney?
I feel like they have a little bathroom or shower in this thing. Oh, really? I want to see the sprinter if you have any pictures.
I don't. How is Kieran doing? How is his son doing? Is he loving this trip? He said he's loving it.
Yeah. This is like a dream trip for him, for Kieran. This is so cool that they do that. Kieran is no thrill, no frills, excuse me, doesn't like, like, would rather camp than stay in a hotel, doesn't, like, this is so his speed, so.
He's not one of my kids, I'm telling you. Not one of mine, for sure. My kids would be like, it ain't five star. Trust me. Dad, they don't give us free breakfast in the morning?
We're sitting on the back, the back row of the plane. That's my kids. You're on a plane, and you're going on vacation, so be grateful.
You didn't book through American Express? I will tell you that I talked to Steve Gabara, who just got back from Jackson Hole. Same place. And he was telling me that at the pool at the hotel that they were staying at, the lifeguards have to walk around with bear spray to keep bears. So he said that there was like a lady walk in and all of a sudden a bear was there and they had to like have the bellhop or somebody at the hotel go chase after a bear.
Like I've gone to Colorado for how many years for summer since Lucy was a baby. So 12 years minus covid. And every year I'm like, please let me see a moose. Please let me see something cool and crazy. And then on this trip, like in a matter of five days, he sees everything herds. That's the right word. I don't know. He sees everything.
What is the, oh, God, what is the, I'm thinking of how Kevin would react if I did that. Isn't there like a guy that goes and chase after animals? I know a crocodile hunter used to chase after crocodile hunters.
Are you thinking of like Jack Hanna, who has like a Saturday morning show? I don't know.
I don't know. I thought there's a new guy that does this.
Oh, I don't know.
because I know that there's a guy that does this and goes like out in the wild and you know he shows his escapades I don't know maybe but the reason I say this is Wes would be amazing at that like I know Wes has done television you know he's done the Ninja Warrior Wes would be like can you imagine if he did like a show
that would be his dream come true
Yeah, hold on. Oh, here you go. Bye. Here you go.
And then in the video he set of the bear one that I actually posted, the bear, like, starts walking towards him. And he's like, just. And I'm like, why are you pointing at it in the video? We all see that there's a frickin' bear there. How close is it? You don't need to point. Is he zoomed in? No, I. No, he's not zoomed in. Show me.
But it. But no, but it. Like, sometimes. Sometimes it's trick photography. Oh, my God. No. Look at that. Hold on. Let's see what we got here.
What would you say? Maybe 10 feet.
That's, that's, I mean, that's honestly, maybe less than that's fast enough for it to jump out at you. Yeah. That's crazy. All right. Let's see what else you got in here. I just think they're, they're not. Give me my phone. Who does that? I'll be honest with you.
Who does that? Bianca does it.
I'll be honest. There was, there was one, one I swiped to just a second ago. That was a bunch of the kids at, uh, from Lucy's party there. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
I think there's more riskiness to being at that house that night than Wes and Karen out in the middle of the wild. Funeral Home Tom on the phone with us right now. Keep a coffin ready, Funeral Home Tom. He's going to get eaten. Do you guys remember Mojo? Do you remember Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom? And that guy used to go out and catch all the animals and stuff. You know, it's funny as I remember. the name but you know but it's wild. I will say this. I don't know Tom. Does that seem like a trip that you would ever want to go on? Go out west and see wild animals like this?
Oh I'd love to. I've always sold my way to it but I'm not going to get near them unless I got a rifle and I'm hunting. Yeah.
I saw something this week and I didn't even know this. Sleeping Bear Dunes.
Okay. Yeah. Fun.
Love. I think I was there as a kid once. They have a thing where when you go down the hill the sleeping bear dunes if you can't make it back up the hill they charge you like 30 grand or something like that to like life light you up or something wait what so have you been to sleeping bear dunes yeah have you been to the bottom and and then walked your way back up to the top yes so they say it's like yeah climbing it's hard mount everest or whatever but it's hard but they say that if you get all the way down to the bottom like i was thinking of this for a vacation i'm like oh maybe we'll go to sleeping bear you i am going to sleep in bear dunes there's no way yeah it's like a bunch of person yeah something like that they charge they charge you it's i yeah i guess you're right thousand not thirty thousand
that would be it's like three grand or something or is it three grand yeah maybe that's the kind of trip i need to go on is a trip they'll force you to exercise i know steve gabara went on this
trip to Jackson Hole, and he was hiking mountains, and I'm like, what the hell has happened to you? It's crazy. His girlfriend wanted to do it. I know. He was getting ass out of the deal. What's up, Lo?
What's going on, Mojo? You were talking about the guy that's in the wilderness with the animals. Are you talking about the real Tarzan?
Yeah, exactly. That's what I was talking about. Wes is now Tarzan. He's out there with these things. Lo, would you... Hey! Low, quick question. Would you want a bison like five feet away from you?
Absolutely not.
No.
Listen, I'm 6'3", 387. I still wouldn't want one body.
Wait a second. You are 6'3", 387?
Yes, I'm a big dude. He's 387.
You should be playing for the Lions. We could use you.
Yeah, and I would take a million-dollar contract. So whoever out here for the Lions here is, call me, call me.
You know what the thing is funny? I was going to say Wes. Lowe, if you and I went with Wes and Kieran, they would want us there because the two of us would get eaten first because we're so damn slow, you know?
Absolutely. And there's more meat on your bones.
Do you think you can make it up sleeping, Bear Dunes? Because I don't think I'm good. I don't think I'd be on the bottom there going, all right, hold on. Do you guys accept credit cards? It would be crazy. What's up? Who is this? Chris. Hi, Chris.
Hey, Mojo. The guy that you're thinking of that goes around looking for animals like Crocodile Dundee, he's called Coyote Peterson.
Honestly, I don't even know why I said it, but okay. Coyote Peterson. Chris, are you in shape enough to get up?
Sleeping Bear Dunes. I mean, I might be in shape enough.
I still can't believe it that you can make it all the way to the bottom of the thing and if you can't get back up to the top,
I did not know that they, I guess
they had to have something, but.
There's a ton of videos on TikTok about it.
I thought Tony told me that you can take, you know, off-road vehicles on Sleeping Bear Dunes. I was going to say,
I feel like some areas you can. There's like those buggies. Yeah. What's going on,
Kimberly? Hi, it's Mojo in the Morning.
hello um yeah so i agree sleeping very dunes is kind of crazy even just like the first initial hill is crazy to climb but didn't you guys see that mike just did that yes i did are we surprised
so he went to the bottom and then does he have video of him going all the way back up
i didn't see a video necessarily but i saw the i saw him post on instagram and he had like tips and stuff from his listeners but i mean if he did it with the kids quick question kimberly would you
want to go on a trip where if you turn a corner you have to have bear spray to keep bear away or any of these wild
animals? I'm going to Denver in about a month and I saw an elk once. I was real close to an elk in Denver a couple of years ago. Not Denver but near the Rocky Mountains.
So it's amazing part about you saying that is when I walk outside to take the dogs to go get their morning or afternoon poop in i walk into dare i walk into wild turkeys oh turkeys are mean i walk into
sometimes an occasional coyote.
Oh, wow.
And I'm scared crapless.
You need defense.
I come out. I sometimes will come out and go, I'm coming outside. This morning, it was skunk smell in my front yard. You know how that is in the morning, like when you smell the skunk smell? They were active.
I saw a deer chasing its tail this morning in a field, and it made me smile.
Oh, that's cute.
So they're not scary.
Can you imagine that Wes is out taking videos and showing Shannon videos of him with antelope? Antelope. Caribou. With cantaloupe. Caribou. And I walk outside and I'm afraid of a skunk spraying my dogs. You know what I mean? It's crazy. Yeah. All right. Well, you take care, Kimberly. Appreciate you.
Love you guys. Love you too. Love you too. Beware of the cantaloupe.
