Speaker 1: After for Black Friday, and we uh you know, spread
Speaker 1: our our air up and down Woodward shopping in all
Speaker 1: the stories. Chelsea bought cowboy boots at this How do
Speaker 1: we have a cowboy store? I'm going to tell you
Speaker 1: the place was jammed and people were buying Kevin. First off,
Speaker 1: let me say something to you didn't know anything about it.
Speaker 1: Leave it to Dan Gilbert to go out and get
Speaker 1: the hottest cowboy shoe line in the world. I guess
Speaker 1: the supposedly Detroit beats even Chicago with that because I
Speaker 1: heard the people travel from Chicago to come there.
Speaker 2: Yeh.
Speaker 1: But in Chelsea bought some boots that were looking like hot.
Speaker 1: I'm excited, nice, I'm excited. I'm excited to have her.
Speaker 1: She'll never wear them with nothing, but it would be
Speaker 1: like a dream come true. If she just like walked
Speaker 1: in the room with nothing on, it would be like
Speaker 1: I'd be like, who stole my wife?
Speaker 2: Then we were going up and down, and we went
Speaker 2: to the tree.
Speaker 1: We went to the little shopping area there, what do
Speaker 1: they call it Cadillac Plaza shopping or something Cadillac Square.
Speaker 1: And then they have like two cool areas now that
Speaker 1: you can lodges that you can sit there and drink
Speaker 1: hot cocoa with some kind of an alcoholic beverage. And
Speaker 1: then we were going to go to lunch and we
Speaker 1: were going to eat at the restaurant that's at the
Speaker 1: base of the Christmas tree. If you're from outside of
Speaker 1: the Detroit area, we have our tree that is beautiful.
Speaker 1: And then we have this restaurant called Park that is there,
Speaker 1: and I made reservations on open table.
Speaker 2: Some time ago.
Speaker 4: You are so good.
Speaker 1: We are freezing our butts off. After walking around for
Speaker 1: like two and a half three hours, we get in
Speaker 1: for our you know, twelve fifteen or something reservation. Walk
Speaker 1: in the door. I walked in with confidence, like, look
Speaker 1: at this, mister big radio guy walk in. I go, hi,
Speaker 1: I gotta have a reservation for Tom. And they look
Speaker 1: at me like they saw a ghost. And I said, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's on there somewhere, and They're like, isn't it anything else.
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, oh my god, maybe I made the reservation
Speaker 1: under Mojo, which Chelsea hates when I do that. She
Speaker 1: thinks that it's very you know, egotistical of me to
Speaker 1: do that. But if it gets me at table, I
Speaker 1: don't care. So I try Mojo and he likes. She goes,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, we don't have that for you. And this
Speaker 1: place is jammed all right. There's people sweat people eating
Speaker 1: brunch like you guys eat brunch all the time. You
Speaker 1: young young people like to eat brunch. I like to
Speaker 1: eat breakfast or lunch. I don't go brunching. So we're
Speaker 1: standing there for a little bit, and I'm looking behind
Speaker 1: me and Mom is not looking happy at me, and
Speaker 1: she's like, what's going on?
Speaker 2: And I go, no, thating, I got this.
Speaker 5: Please did you pull it up on your phone and
Speaker 5: show them that you had?
Speaker 1: I said, try here, spell my name and I spelled
Speaker 1: my name out for him. Capital C know I'm doing
Speaker 1: all the thing, and he goes, oh, I see, yeah,
Speaker 1: we got you down here for Saturday.
Speaker 2: Oh I put it on the wrong day. No, what
Speaker 2: have you? Has any of you guys ever done that before?
Speaker 1: Where has anybody ever like made a reservation or even
Speaker 1: like you book travel and you show up and you're like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I got my plane ticket that's going here. Yeah, your
Speaker 1: playing ticket was for yesterday. That's what I felt like.
Speaker 1: So I look and this guy was really nice, which,
Speaker 1: by the way, shout out to everybody at park. Yeah,
Speaker 1: everybody from the young guy that was working the counter
Speaker 1: that I was willing to offer him like one hundred
Speaker 1: bucks to get me a table. I didn't have to,
Speaker 1: thank God to the manager came over there like they
Speaker 1: saw our whole family that was there, and they're like,
Speaker 1: don't worry.
Speaker 2: About it, we'll get you the table. That's good.
Speaker 1: So they ended up putting something together for us. It
Speaker 1: was really really nice, and the waitress was awesome. She like,
Speaker 1: everybody's going to start a podcast. Everybody, have you ever
Speaker 1: done that before?
Speaker 2: Shannon? Have you ever done that? I probably?
Speaker 3: I mean.
Speaker 5: The one that sticks out because I still roast him
Speaker 5: for it is when Wes and I first started dating,
Speaker 5: he planned like a date night. This was maybe for
Speaker 5: our second or third date, and we were downtown in
Speaker 5: fact as well, and he was like, I got it,
Speaker 5: I got dinner. We're going to go to a really
Speaker 5: cool place for drinks afterward. And he planned the entire
Speaker 5: night for the following weekend, same exactly, like same thing
Speaker 5: you did. And so we you know, we were just
Speaker 5: walking into places to sit down. But I have never
Speaker 5: let him live that.
Speaker 2: Down because so did you guys? Could you guys go anywhere?
Speaker 2: Did they?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 5: I mean we ended up walking in, you know, somewhere
Speaker 5: else and it was fine.
Speaker 2: But that happens, you.
Speaker 1: Know, That's like, that's the other thing, Like what happened
Speaker 1: to me is bad because you got all these people
Speaker 1: that are depending on you. What happened to Wes is
Speaker 1: probably worse because you're still in the impressed game.
Speaker 4: Oh like, there was no impressing that day. There was
Speaker 4: no impressing.
Speaker 3: You Know.
Speaker 5: What happens to me though, with reservations is I I've
Speaker 5: had a few different last names.
Speaker 4: We can all laugh about that now. So on the
Speaker 4: different apps.
Speaker 5: Sometimes some of them, I haven't changed my name, like
Speaker 5: I Some of them, I use Murphy, which is which
Speaker 5: is the name obviously I use on the air, but
Speaker 5: that really is my maiden name. So I'll go up

Speaker 2: Actually they think that you're just trying to use other
Speaker 2: people's names.
Speaker 4: I did it so embarrassing. Please change it, Canvas.
