Speaker 1: All right, it's Mojo.
Speaker 2: In the morning show, we were talking about, you know,
Speaker 2: things with the phone and stuff. Has Shannon showed you
Speaker 2: all of the robo calls or or sales calls that
Speaker 2: she's been.
Speaker 1: Getting goes off? You can hear it.
Speaker 3: My phone rings the entire show. And it's been like,
Speaker 3: look at this, look at this, you guys, why do
Speaker 3: you have fully how I get upwards of like between
Speaker 3: eighty and one hundred.
Speaker 1: Calls a day? But why is it just recently that
Speaker 1: it's gotten crazy?
Speaker 3: Because so I talked about how Wes and I were
Speaker 3: looking we're thinking about moving, and we went to look
Speaker 3: at a house this week and for whatever reason, I've
Speaker 3: actually never heard of people doing this. But to even
Speaker 3: get a showing for this particular home that we were
Speaker 3: interested in, you had to have a pre you had
Speaker 3: to have a pre approval letter, which we didn't have,
Speaker 3: so we had to like go through that process. And
Speaker 3: the guy who was doing it for us even said,
Speaker 3: don't put your real phone number on anything, just put
Speaker 3: five five five five five five five whatever because or
Speaker 3: else exactly. So what's happening to me is happening. So
Speaker 3: I don't know how it's happening to me, but it
Speaker 3: is driving me crazy. And normally I just let the
Speaker 3: call go to voicemail and nobody ever leaves a voicemail.
Speaker 3: But I was in the car yesterday and it was
Speaker 3: just I was in a mood and I think I
Speaker 3: was channeling misfit Victor and I started answering some of
Speaker 3: the calls as Costco Bakery, Hello, this is Nicole from
Speaker 3: Rosesboom dot com. I mean, I did them all, but
Speaker 3: the best was I I was like, oh, I'm really
Speaker 3: going to like toy with somebody. One of my really
Speaker 3: good friends works for the Birmingham Police Department. So I
Speaker 3: answered the phone call Birmingham Police Department and then I
Speaker 3: used her name like officer, I don't want to say
Speaker 3: her name, but and the guy on the other end
Speaker 3: was like, is this Shannon, And I was like, no,
Speaker 3: you called the Birmingham Police Department. And I'm like, you know,
Speaker 3: he's going back and forth, note Shannon and you know,
Speaker 3: said my last name and so I am not budget
Speaker 3: And finally he gets so pissed off and he's like,
Speaker 3: you know you have some nerve doing this.
Speaker 2: Was he still a sales call or was it somebody
Speaker 2: that was talking to you, the guy.
Speaker 1: That was scroming at you. No, it was like it
Speaker 1: was from one of these mortgage Okay, so they know
Speaker 1: your name when you're doing it.
Speaker 3: And again I don't know enough about this to know
Speaker 3: how where how they've gotten all of my information so quickly,
Speaker 3: but they did. And he said my name like he
Speaker 3: knew my first and last name.
Speaker 2: But Victor has and I don't. I haven't talked to
Speaker 2: Victor in a long time. I mean with uh, I've
Speaker 2: had some family stuff and things going on, and I
Speaker 2: think he's been busy.
Speaker 1: Can we call Victor up?
Speaker 3: Because Victor does this just so you know that reference
Speaker 3: while you're calling him Lydia. He will do this with
Speaker 3: any telemarketer that calls him. He will either pretend to
Speaker 3: be somebody else or he will play a game and
Speaker 3: be so annoying to them and see how long he
Speaker 3: can keep them on the phone.
Speaker 4: When we call Victor, can we like three way in
Speaker 4: one of these numbers?
Speaker 3: I thought about it, honest to got yesterday thought about
Speaker 3: screenshotting some of these numbers and just saying he at it.
Speaker 1: That fun.
Speaker 2: My favorite Victor thing to do is when somebody calls
Speaker 2: and does these things like where they do the telemarketing
Speaker 2: calls and he tells them.
Speaker 1: They say, what is your name? And he goes Tony Trevada.
Speaker 2: He gives our bosses name and and then they'll like,
Speaker 2: how do you spell that? And give them all the details.
Speaker 2: I don't even I never pick up these calls. I
Speaker 2: don't pick mean obviously I don't pick up calls. I
Speaker 2: don't pick up calls from friends, but I don't pick
Speaker 2: up anything that I don't have saved in my phone anybody.
Speaker 2: And it's kind of bad that that's the case, because
Speaker 2: you can't do it anymore because there's so many of
Speaker 2: them that come through.
Speaker 4: But that's why I think that particular point emphasizes that
Speaker 4: if it's that important, they'll leave a voicemail.
Speaker 1: If you're getting random numbers and are not leaving voicemail,
Speaker 1: not one of these calls have left a voicemail. What
Speaker 1: is so? What is the deal with?
Speaker 2: Like some people say that there's certain apps that are good,
Speaker 2: like if you can find like an app that will
Speaker 2: stop out all the robo calls, but I've never been
Speaker 2: able to do it. I got one app or one service,
Speaker 2: and it was the it was horrible. I wouldn't get it, Like,
Speaker 2: my family couldn't even call me. It kept so many
Speaker 2: phone numbers. Yeah, so I ended up having to cancel it.
Speaker 2: But what's up Amy?
Speaker 1: How you doing good money?
Speaker 5: Guys?
Speaker 6: This is this is how it works when you're looking
Speaker 6: for you, whether you get any sort of loan, why
Speaker 6: don't you get your credit?
Speaker 1: Call right?
Speaker 5: Companies pay for those lists.
Speaker 1: Okay?
Speaker 6: Who who just you know applied for a mortgage somewhere and.
Speaker 3: Then really I thought that I kind of had an
Speaker 3: inkling that it had something to do with my credit
Speaker 3: and obviously my phone number is you know.
Speaker 1: So wait, so so the is it the find every time? Yeah?
Speaker 2: So that whole thing that Shannon says when people say
Speaker 2: how did you get my number? And somebody must have
Speaker 2: you know, like when you say that stuff, that's actually
Speaker 2: a true thing that's coming back at.
Speaker 1: You, right, can you out anyway? I don't know.
Speaker 4: I mean, I guess it's not like you know, Instagram,
Speaker 4: when you download a app and it says share yourself
Speaker 4: and it says never share or.
Speaker 1: Does apparently Victor, good morning.
Speaker 5: Good morning?
Speaker 2: When did you get in an accent? Where where did
Speaker 2: that thing come from?
Speaker 7: This is a Rodney I'm calling from medicaid.
Speaker 1: Sounds like, dude, are you proud of me?
Speaker 5: I am proud of you.
Speaker 6: But I mean it's the thing is if the more
Speaker 6: like just by answering or talking period, Uh, they're just
Speaker 6: going to hit We used to.
Speaker 5: Do top marketing a long time ago.
Speaker 6: You would just hit F four F two and I
Speaker 6: would just reschedule you first for somebody to call you.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so it's it's Apple is.
Speaker 6: Apple is supposed to with the next update, is supposed
Speaker 6: to release a a thing on there that's like almost
Speaker 6: like a call spam blocker where, uh, if if you
Speaker 6: don't know the number, they're going to say, Hi, this
Speaker 6: person has this feature say your name.
Speaker 5: And then it'll call you.
Speaker 6: And I'll say so and so is calling. Do you
Speaker 6: want to answer this call or not? Or it will
Speaker 6: completely filter the call out?
Speaker 2: But I mean, is that reallything or because then they're.
Speaker 7: All going to is because because no, the telemarkers are
Speaker 7: never going to say that I had a I have
Speaker 7: to run with the app is it's called robo killer
Speaker 7: or something like that caller.
Speaker 2: That's the one I had and it kept Chelsea from
Speaker 2: calling me, or at least that's what she said, but.
Speaker 6: That's because you probably put her number on block or
Speaker 6: something like that. But I had that and I got
Speaker 6: I got rid of it because my life became so boring,
Speaker 6: you know, without.
Speaker 5: These guys, it's just it's just amazing.
Speaker 1: I got a whole list for you, a couple hundred.
Speaker 2: He sits there because his wife, Tina will work on
Speaker 2: the weekends at night sometimes and Victor will be home
Speaker 2: with the kids. He has a field day grabbing calls
Speaker 2: all that.
Speaker 6: The best is the call the car warranty extenders. They're
Speaker 6: fantastic because I get them and I'm like, yeah, oh,
Speaker 6: I definitely want to, you know, get this warranty on
Speaker 6: a car that I haven't had in eight years.
Speaker 5: And then you get them, and then you.
Speaker 6: Start asking about the packages and I want the best one,
Speaker 6: and they get all they're like you can hear them
Speaker 6: salivating because they're excited that they're going to and then
Speaker 6: they I got transfer you to my online supervisor. Just
Speaker 6: hold on, sir, And then you get transferred to online supervisor,
Speaker 6: and you're just like, no, I never said any of that.
Speaker 5: Trail.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, they're thinking they're making this big sale
Speaker 6: and everything, and you just get to supervisor, and you're like, Nope,
Speaker 6: I'm never.
Speaker 1: Doing hold on, Terry.
Speaker 2: What's up, Terry? You're on with us this morning? What's
Speaker 2: going on? Hey, good morning, good morning, it's going good.
Speaker 2: We're having just a little conversation here with some guy
Speaker 2: who's in India trying to sell us stuff.
Speaker 1: His name is Victor. What's going on? So when they
Speaker 1: call I will start.
Speaker 6: To answer them.
Speaker 1: You'll answer them in Arabic.
Speaker 6: I do.
Speaker 1: I ask them how they're doing, how the weather is so?
Speaker 2: Really and if they don't know the language, they don't
Speaker 2: know what they're doing right, well.
Speaker 8: They like, uh, Terry, Uh, Terry, Terry uh, And I'm like.
Speaker 4: They don't like it.
Speaker 2: Do you understand that the love of your life is
Speaker 2: on the line with us, Victor? This might be the
Speaker 2: woman that you should be with her. Can you imagine
Speaker 2: the two of you together, that you guys would be
Speaker 2: on each end of the couch having fun with people calling.
Speaker 1: You absolutely looked at their money.
Speaker 6: Oh you know, the first one to call her and
Speaker 6: then hang up and then immediately call me after.
Speaker 1: Exactly, uh, what's up Scott?
Speaker 7: Hi?
Speaker 6: Hey? So when I when I get calls very similar,
Speaker 6: I answered with I saying.
Speaker 1: What is that, Jeffany, can.
Speaker 5: You say that on the ear? Well, it's nothing vulgar.
Speaker 1: That's funny. Joe hold on, let me let me answer
Speaker 1: some call. Let me use me. I'm seriously sorry.
Speaker 5: Maybe some money on Medicare.
Speaker 1: What's up, Joey, Hi, Joey?
Speaker 8: Hey, how are you guys?
Speaker 1: Good? What's going on?
Speaker 5: So?
Speaker 1: I actually have.
Speaker 8: That new update from Apple that Victor is talking about. Yes,
Speaker 8: it works amazing. So I signed up for a service
Speaker 8: company to do fertilizer on my lawn and they do
Speaker 8: nothing but call me three four.
Speaker 6: Times a day.
Speaker 8: And then once I got the update, a little notification
Speaker 8: pops up my phone, almost like a voicemail. It'll say
Speaker 8: the number, and it'll almost it'll dictate what they're saying
Speaker 8: when they answer it. You can decline, and if you
Speaker 8: don't have your phone on, or if it's just sitting
Speaker 8: on the counter or something, it doesn't like buzz your phone.
Speaker 3: Okay, So it's almost just as annoying because it's still
Speaker 3: notifications popping up on my phone.
Speaker 1: But how many of them actually leave the message and
Speaker 1: do that?
Speaker 8: The real telemarketers don't the real people that call, yeah,
Speaker 8: start to dictate. I've had people from work that I
Speaker 8: haven't had their number saved, dictate and then I can
Speaker 8: pick it up from there.
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, we'll try that. Hopefully that's that turns
Speaker 2: out to be a good feature. Now for the iPhone, Mike,
Speaker 2: what's going on?
Speaker 5: Mike?
Speaker 6: Hey?
Speaker 9: A lot of times what I do, I'll call the

Speaker 9: be spilling to each other about what they're trying to do.
Speaker 9: And I have one time I had sixteen of them
Speaker 9: trying to look hilarious.
Speaker 1: You got sixteen of them calling together. That's crazy.
Speaker 9: It was funny because the one guy caught on and

Speaker 9: somebody else, so they'd keep on calling. But I had
Speaker 9: about four or five of them staying on there laughing
Speaker 9: at them because they would finally called on that I
Speaker 9: was doing that to them, so they were starting to
Speaker 9: play along with it too. It's funny.
Speaker 1: How is that sixteen? How is it that you and
