Speaker 1: All right, it's Mojoe in the morning show. So I realize,
Speaker 1: being a not a college graduate, that I wish I
Speaker 1: could go back to college.
Speaker 2: And I'm gonna explain to you why.
Speaker 1: This past weekend, I went back to Arizona, to Tucson
Speaker 1: where I once lived, and I stayed on campus at
Speaker 1: a hotel that was on the college campus there at
Speaker 1: the University of Arizona, and I realized as I was
Speaker 1: walking around, if it wouldn't look weird, I would retire
Speaker 1: from radio and I would go back to college and
Speaker 1: try to be like a lawyer or something. Because the
Speaker 1: girls and the parties were like unbelievable.
Speaker 2: It was crazy.
Speaker 1: First off, if you're if your kid's going to college
Speaker 1: and they're going to go out of state, you know,
Speaker 1: and they're not gonna pay you don't you know, you're
Speaker 1: your kid's not going to be paying you know, because
Speaker 1: of money and stuff like that. You're not gonna pay
Speaker 1: in state tuition, which is definitely a difference, because I
Speaker 1: only got one out of three that gave me in
Speaker 1: state tuition. The rest of them were all out of
Speaker 1: state situition. Let me just say this to you, why
Speaker 1: would you choose to go out of state to go
Speaker 1: to a school in a cold climate, like I would
Speaker 1: sow if I was a kid getting ready to go
Speaker 1: to college, I'd go to Alabama, like one of those
Speaker 1: SEC schools or around state.
Speaker 2: Tuition is cheaper than is it. Ye'll give you all
Speaker 2: sorts of money.
Speaker 1: But if your kids looking at going to school, trust me,
Speaker 1: I just was there. Go to Arizona, the University of Arizona.
Speaker 1: I have never in my life ever seen a better
Speaker 1: college campus, and my kids have gone to many colleges.
Speaker 1: Luke's going to Michigan State right now. It's a nice place,
Speaker 1: but the place looks like it looks like a prison.
Speaker 3: You know what I mean.
Speaker 1: You walk around Michigan State unless it's spring or fall,
Speaker 1: it's a prison, for God's sakes. University of Arizona palm trees,
Speaker 1: the place had. They had Starbucks and Chipotle and Chick
Speaker 1: fil A's on campus, Like it was like, I'm like,
Speaker 1: this is like literally.
Speaker 4: The one of my friends went there and she would
Speaker 4: always post between classes. She was like tanning by a pool,
Speaker 4: Like this is crazy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, let me tell you the wile And so we
Speaker 2: hung out.
Speaker 1: So shout out again to John Jay and Rich and
Speaker 1: shout out to John Jay and his wife Blake for
Speaker 1: letting us, Joe and I hang out and crash with
Speaker 1: their son, who is really an amazing kid. There's something
Speaker 1: about you know, all twenty year olds are very similar,
Speaker 1: but this kid was not like a normal twenty year old.
Speaker 1: He's He's on par with my son, Luke. I think
Speaker 1: Luke is really special, but John Jay's no. I think
Speaker 1: he's like no, I think I think. I think Luke is.
Speaker 1: Luke is not the most book smart, but he's the
Speaker 1: most personality smart. Like he's got a pep. He's got
Speaker 1: he he will be successful in his life. He doesn't
Speaker 1: make a difference what he's gonna be. He's gonna do well.
Speaker 1: And that's exactly how John Jay's son is. This kid
Speaker 1: was just so outgoing and fun and I got to
Speaker 1: see see if I have this text that he sent me,
Speaker 1: which I thought was really really cool. So I had
Speaker 1: said to him, I go, hey, you his name is Dutch,
Speaker 1: by the way, which is like the coolest name because
Speaker 1: they're Dutch. They're you know, John Jay's uh, John Jay's
Speaker 1: Mexican and his uh, his mom is Dutch, so they
Speaker 1: named him Dutch believe or not yeah, yeah, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: his abuelo, his actually his uncle. His uncle is the
Speaker 1: mayor of like a town in Mexico.
Speaker 2: Really yeah, never knew.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so this is funny, So Dutch, So Dutch goes, Yo, Mojo,
Speaker 1: come back anytime that you want to. You and Joe
Speaker 1: are so great. By the way, if you want, I'll
Speaker 1: send you all the applications. Because I said to him,
Speaker 1: my goal, are there any like forty year olds, like
Speaker 1: or fifty year olds that like come back to school?
Speaker 1: Dutch says to me, He goes, I had a forty
Speaker 1: five year old in one of my class that did
Speaker 1: a project for him. He had a forty five year
Speaker 1: old dude that went back to college and did the
Speaker 1: did they got teamed up in a project. And here's Dutch,
Speaker 1: who's a freshman, he's like, what nineteen or something like that,
Speaker 1: got teamed up with a forty.
Speaker 2: Five year old forty five drum street like a magic.
Speaker 5: Sister just did this. She did My youngest sister just
Speaker 5: did this. She went back to school just just to
Speaker 5: get like like a very specialized degree, and most of
Speaker 5: her classes were online, but at the end she had
Speaker 5: to go in person and do like the exams and stuff,
Speaker 5: and it was out of state, and she's like, Shannon,
Speaker 5: it was me and like twenty year old. My sister's
Speaker 5: in her mid thirties, so it's not that crazy, but
Speaker 5: she's like it it felt like, you know, the age
Speaker 5: difference was decades, Like she felt so out of place.
Speaker 4: There was an older man in one of my classes
Speaker 4: in college, and I felt so bad for him because
Speaker 4: it's like he didn't know how to do school like
Speaker 4: everyone else. Like we were on our laptops like taking
Speaker 4: notes now and then, and he was just scribbling everything
Speaker 4: on his paper, like everything now, and.
Speaker 2: I was like, you don't need to do that.
Speaker 1: I went to the bookstore and by the way, if
Speaker 1: you're if you had a class with an older person,
Speaker 1: you have to tell us, like what that was, Like,
Speaker 1: I want to know eight four to four Mojo Live.
Speaker 1: I went to the bookstore and right in the start
Speaker 1: of the bookstore they had the U of A and
Speaker 1: it's the I think the company is called Jan Sport.
Speaker 1: It's the backpack company Jan Sport backpacks. I wanted to
Speaker 1: buy one and walk on campus.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I wanted to strap it.
Speaker 1: I would probably won strap it because wow, I'd have
Speaker 1: to really open it wide, did to strap it, and
Speaker 1: plus if I two strapped it, they probably think I
Speaker 1: was a homeless guy on campus or something like that.
Speaker 1: But I but I was like seeing all these kids
Speaker 1: like walking around. They had, you know, what they had
Speaker 1: on at their school because of weather.
Speaker 2: So nice.
Speaker 1: They have a bike area where they have you can
Speaker 1: like put your bikes and stuff, but it's all like
Speaker 1: nicely put into like a little corral and then the
Speaker 1: bike repair free on campus repair for your bicycles. Like
Speaker 1: in one particular area, they had like a student activity
Speaker 1: center that I walked into. I walked in this student
Speaker 1: activity center. It was nicer than the Lifetime Fitness on
Speaker 1: Telegraph Road and Bloomfill the Hills.
Speaker 2: Beautiful.
Speaker 1: If you're a college kid, you don't pay for it.
Speaker 1: You're on campus, you don't pay for it. I'd be
Speaker 1: hanging out there all day. When I was at UH.
Speaker 1: I think I was at Wayne Sayter. Maybe I was
Speaker 1: at WC three and took a class there or something
Speaker 1: like that.
Speaker 6: But it was an African American studies class and one
Speaker 6: of our first classes. I remember the teacher was a
Speaker 6: smaller class and he was like, you know, we get
Speaker 6: to know everybody. It's that type of atmosphere. Tell me,
Speaker 6: like your name and what year you are, and I'm
Speaker 6: like freshman peoples are going around. It was an older
Speaker 6: lady who said in the front she was like in
Speaker 6: the beginning tomorrow and after everybody's going around, you know,
Speaker 6: freshman sophomore.
Speaker 1: She was like forever learner. It was really cool. Hold
Speaker 1: on a second here, Matt, what's up is Mojo in
Speaker 1: the morning?
Speaker 3: Hey Mojo, real question is from this weekend? Did the
Speaker 3: tarps come off? Did you wear the right shirt?
Speaker 7: Oh?
Speaker 2: No, no, you ready for this?
Speaker 1: It was red? The color was red. I actually yeah,
Speaker 1: I did not take the shirt off. I did not
Speaker 1: go shirtless, although there were some kids there that were
Speaker 1: like shirtless with their you know, chest painted and they
Speaker 1: were all like dressed up. But I was kind of
Speaker 1: happy with it. You can go see the pictures on
Speaker 1: the on the Instagram. But I lucked out on that
Speaker 1: and I actually what I ended up doing was I
Speaker 1: wore a white polo. So I bought a white polo
Speaker 1: that said U of A on it. At the bookstore
Speaker 1: they had Lululemon as one of their things was kind
Speaker 1: of cool as comfortable, and then I bought a red
Speaker 1: quartership to put on the top of it.
Speaker 2: What's up, Jasmine? How you doing good?
Speaker 8: Are you?
Speaker 9: First time.
Speaker 6: Jazz?
Speaker 4: So college, we had this older lady that you could
Speaker 4: tell she she.
Speaker 9: Was the best friend of everyone.
Speaker 4: She didn't have that experience probably growing up, it seemed like,
Speaker 4: and everyone.
Speaker 9: Absolutely loved her.
Speaker 4: She was she was probably my favorite person to ever
Speaker 4: do projects with and everything like that.
Speaker 7: She was.
Speaker 8: She was awesome.
Speaker 2: It was pretty wild to see.
Speaker 1: There were some older people that were walking around and
Speaker 1: at first I thought they were professors. And then I'm like,
Speaker 1: they're not dressed like nice enough to be a professor,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like they were they were.
Speaker 2: In shorts and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: And I'm looking going, I wonder if these guys went
Speaker 1: back to school, like it would be kind of honestly,
Speaker 1: you met. I never I never got to go to
Speaker 1: like a really traditional college. I went to a broadcasting school,
Speaker 1: you know. I went to like, you know, Columbia College
Speaker 1: in Chicago. Basically it was like a city school, like
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know, uh, like an arts It
Speaker 1: was no, it was it was it was like three
Speaker 1: steps up from that. It was like a CCS.
Speaker 2: That's a real college.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you don't have an atmosphere. You don't have
Speaker 1: a basketball team, a football team, don't you don't have
Speaker 1: all the stuff. Like we went, Joe and I went
Speaker 1: to this bar called gentle Men's and it's the it's
Speaker 1: the bar, it's the bar. It was the it was
Speaker 1: the bar on campus that all the kids go to
Speaker 1: before and after games. And so no, no, no, it's
Speaker 1: a regular bar, but he might as well have been
Speaker 1: with the way people were dressed. The last time I
Speaker 1: had been in that bar was when I hosted an
Speaker 1: event there and Joey was home with his momot circle.
Speaker 1: We were sitting there drinking, and you know the funny
Speaker 1: thing is nobody carded us when we walked.
Speaker 2: Into these places let's call it gentleman's, gentle men's. No,
Speaker 2: not gentlemen, gentlemen's, gentle gentle ben, gentle men's. We walked.
Speaker 1: It's like legendary. And then Dirt Bags went to this
Speaker 1: place called dirt Bags that I hadn't been.
Speaker 2: Gentle ben.
Speaker 1: Joe actually called me Epstein when I was walking around
Speaker 1: pointing out the girls.
Speaker 5: I'm like, looking kind of fond of you, but it's
Speaker 5: going to be gentle that's it.
Speaker 2: That's on the phone with us right now, Rainy. What's
Speaker 2: up Rainy?
Speaker 9: Hey the first time?
Speaker 7: Long time.
Speaker 9: Yeah, first off, I've been listening to you guys since
Speaker 9: I was like in fifth grade.
Speaker 8: We love that.
Speaker 7: I was calling. Is that.
Speaker 9: I went to the University of Kentucky Communications Majors. Yeah,
Speaker 9: I was a communications majors. So I had a lot
Speaker 9: of classes that were like group projects and like public speaking,
Speaker 9: and there was always at least like one older person,
Speaker 9: and a lot of time I was grouped up with
Speaker 9: them in like small groups, and they were always my
Speaker 9: favorite people to be grouped up with because like when
Speaker 9: you're like when they're like older, they're not scared to talk,
Speaker 9: and nobody like in their twenties or like my age,
Speaker 9: wanted to ever like talk. So they were always my
Speaker 9: favorite to be grouped up with.
Speaker 2: They do the work.
Speaker 1: And if they don't get a good grade, they can
Speaker 1: say it's age discrimination, ageism.
Speaker 2: What's going on, Thomas? How you doing?
Speaker 3: Hey?
Speaker 8: What's going on? Guys? So I went back to school
Speaker 8: to finish up and get my high school diploma in
Speaker 8: twenty nineteen. Crazy high school year that was chasing skirts
Speaker 8: and stuff.
Speaker 7: And yeah, not taking it seriously or whatever, but be.
Speaker 8: My high school valedictorian. She was part of my class
Speaker 8: graduating class for sixty nine years old.
Speaker 1: Come on, oh my gosh, when really sixty nine year
Speaker 1: old woman went back to high school to go get.
Speaker 2: Her education then was italictorian. Wow, that's incredible. Was she
Speaker 2: also the prom queen too?
Speaker 8: I asked if she wanted to go into the prom?
Speaker 8: She's she said.
Speaker 1: No, that would be amazing, by the way, to take
Speaker 1: like an old person to prom.
Speaker 2: That was a classmate. What's up? How you doing, Collin?
Speaker 7: Good?
Speaker 2: So fantastic? What's up?
Speaker 3: I actually teach to college and rural northwest Ohio. I've
Speaker 3: had students raging from like fourteen to like seventy three.

Speaker 1: year old kid in a class. But as seventy something
