All right, it is Mojo in the morning. So if you weren't with us at the beginning of the show, this is going to be shocking news for you. And if you were with us, we're going to give you an update. Spike is not on the show anymore. A decision has been made, and Spike will not be with us on the Mojo in the Morning Show. We talked earlier this morning in great length about it, and you can go check that podcast out. I'd like to just reiterate that he's been a partner of mine for the last 23 years and actually goes from radio show partner to really part of the family and a great encourager of people like my son to get into radio and to be part of radio. and um we've known him for many years making you guys laugh at this time with our phone scams and out of respect to uh to spike and uh out of honestly knowing how good he was at doing the phone scams we are not going to do the phone scams um you know i i don't think it's appropriate absolutely to do it now i do uh think that you know it's something that would just seem so awkward to have all of a sudden somebody else just doing a phone scam or whatever you know um and it was such a huge part of our show i mean it was the biggest most um probably popular thing actually the most popular thing that we've done on this radio show next to you know war of the roses and the dirty and stuff. And it's going to be sorely missed, but Spike is going to be missed in such a great way. And this will probably be, you know, one of those many ways that people will miss him. And, you know, a lot of people are sending us text messages and, you know, calls and going on social media and commenting. And I totally get everything that you're saying. Anytime that there is a change, you know, I totally understand when people will say, you know i'll never listen again or you know what a you know horrible decision that was made and you know this is this is not something that uh that i can you know do anymore and i would say that you obviously you know do that but i will also say this that all of us are going to try to to keep things together and try to to pick up pieces and we're going to try to continue to do what we do

on the show and have done on the show so yeah this stuff sucks i you know i i i hate this stuff i hate not having the guy that has sat next to me for god almost 14 years now um not sitting next to me anymore it's it's it's so hard and i love him to pieces he was never just a co-worker to any of us um i mean he he is and always will be an incredible incredible friend and like you said it's it it's hard it's heartbreaking and the only thing that we can do is keep going and keep trying to give you the show that we that you expect from us every morning which sometimes is good sometimes not the best but that's what that's what we're doing so i um was talking to to somebody

over the weekend and expressing you know my sadness uh about you know what's what's happening here and um and expressing honestly my fears and my anxiety and talking about this and he he said to me you know something that was interesting and i don't know

necessarily if it comforted me but it did for a second give me a little bit where he just said that um you know not everything you know is forever you know unfortunately i mean i wish that we all you know uh could keep and i would don't not saying this to you guys but i wish that and i think back to what the show was like back when we first started i wish those people were still part of the show and we can just keep on adding having and adding and you know what I mean because when we celebrated our 20th anniversary a couple years ago that was what it was like yeah and every person that we've added to the show has meant something to the show and that includes even the interns that have been part of this program you know they've they've divulged things in their lives that that were very tough for them to divulge but he said to me he's like you know time you know kind of heals that but also there's a day when honestly it's like he said to me he goes there's a day when when they're going to come to you mojo and they're going to say to you you know hey it's time to move on and honestly you know when i was thinking about that and thinking about the change that is that has just happened it at least made me know first off that when people have left the show they've always gone on to great things and i know he's a very talented talented person and i know he will he will go on to great things and i know that it's going to suck for you the listener because you're not going to get that entertainment that you normally would get um and i get it and you choose what you you know we'll decide to choose and we just hope that if you do choose not to be here that maybe you come back and and try us out again and we'll see how things go and you know in time so um you know it's it's tough it's very very tough it's been a tough tough weekend yeah and the feeling in the

studio this morning is just heavy yeah you know it i feel like there's a hole right there um and so i think we're all just trying to kind of push past that and um and i totally understand the text of people who we talked about this earlier and then we went you know right into talking about something else we're trying please no we're you know we we this is very very hard for us too but we we have to do this show too so it's it you know what this reminds me of a little tiny bit is when i had to announce my divorce on this show very different but kind of the same pit in my stomach of like this is yucky news but yeah i like i still have to do my job and it sucks big time

um but yeah um with with that said uh we're gonna regroup we're gonna come back in just a second and we're gonna do some some things on the show and you know you can continue you can text and and tell us your thoughts on this or you can call i mean we can even talk to you too on the air And we, you know, we we'd love to hear you because I think that sometimes what ends up happening is people will just make comments and they won't allow the opportunity to talk through a comment, you know, and I get that that might just be how you feel today. But, you know, like you said, this sucks to come in and do this. I have so many friends that work in the auto industry. And when friends have been let go from the auto industry, it's tough for them to go into work the next day and see that empty, you know, cubicle or the office that's there. But they don't have to do it with everybody listening to them. You know what I mean? They just kind of go do it and go on with their day. And that's why it's so difficult in the job that we do.
