WEBVTT - Pulling a Stranger Into Your Fight

0:00:00.440 --> 0:00:02.640
<v Speaker 1>All right, it's Mojo in the morning show. It was

0:00:02.680 --> 0:00:07.000
<v Speaker 1>so much fun having Jacob and his boyfriend, Chris my

0:00:07.200 --> 0:00:11.000
<v Speaker 1>son and his boyfriend hanging out with us. I have

0:00:11.119 --> 0:00:15.600
<v Speaker 1>to tell you, I am absolutely in love with their relationship.

0:00:16.239 --> 0:00:18.680
<v Speaker 1>As a dad, there is nothing that will make you

0:00:18.760 --> 0:00:24.320
<v Speaker 1>happier than when your children find somebody that treats them

0:00:24.360 --> 0:00:26.360
<v Speaker 1>as good as you treat them.

0:00:26.680 --> 0:00:28.960
<v Speaker 2>And I'm getting a little cloudy.

0:00:29.040 --> 0:00:33.640
<v Speaker 1>Yes, Chris is a wonderful guy, and Jacob is wonderful

0:00:33.680 --> 0:00:36.760
<v Speaker 1>to him. And it's so funny. You know, Chris has

0:00:37.200 --> 0:00:40.559
<v Speaker 1>a podcast that he does, and he does also a

0:00:41.760 --> 0:00:46.599
<v Speaker 1>he does technical or he writes reviews on tech products

0:00:46.640 --> 0:00:47.279
<v Speaker 1>and things like that.

0:00:47.360 --> 0:00:48.880
<v Speaker 2>Like he's a really good kid.

0:00:48.920 --> 0:00:50.599
<v Speaker 1>And when he came into the studio to see our

0:00:50.600 --> 0:00:52.040
<v Speaker 1>studios for the first time because it was his first

0:00:52.040 --> 0:00:55.840
<v Speaker 1>time visiting us in Detroit. They live in Lincoln Park

0:00:55.920 --> 0:00:58.920
<v Speaker 1>in Chicago. He came in the studio, he lit up

0:00:59.120 --> 0:01:01.400
<v Speaker 1>and it was really cool to see how excited he

0:01:01.520 --> 0:01:03.520
<v Speaker 1>was when he got around all the equipment and stuff

0:01:03.560 --> 0:01:07.760
<v Speaker 1>like that. But we were having a conversation through the

0:01:07.760 --> 0:01:09.880
<v Speaker 1>weekend and one of the things that they gave me

0:01:09.959 --> 0:01:12.520
<v Speaker 1>as a potential topic is something I wanted to bring

0:01:12.600 --> 0:01:14.960
<v Speaker 1>up right now. I asked him if they ever fight,

0:01:15.720 --> 0:01:18.640
<v Speaker 1>and Jacob said, oh, yeah, we're not. You know, we're

0:01:18.640 --> 0:01:22.080
<v Speaker 1>not like any you know, crazy relationship that won't admit

0:01:22.120 --> 0:01:24.560
<v Speaker 1>to it, especially being in a same sex relationship. I

0:01:24.560 --> 0:01:26.839
<v Speaker 1>got to be honest with you. You know who fights

0:01:26.840 --> 0:01:30.560
<v Speaker 1>the most out of any couples the lesbians.

0:01:32.120 --> 0:01:35.600
<v Speaker 2>Women. I found this. Did you see this statistic? There's

0:01:35.600 --> 0:01:36.240
<v Speaker 2>like light in me.

0:01:36.400 --> 0:01:39.280
<v Speaker 1>There is a statistic that I might get the number

0:01:39.319 --> 0:01:41.680
<v Speaker 1>wrong by like a point or two, that says that

0:01:42.400 --> 0:01:45.720
<v Speaker 1>sixty percent of lesbian relationships, more than fifty percent of

0:01:45.800 --> 0:01:47.560
<v Speaker 1>lesbian relationships end up in divorce.

0:01:47.640 --> 0:01:48.800
<v Speaker 2>I about a sixty nine.

0:01:49.040 --> 0:01:54.880
<v Speaker 1>It may maybe it was wild that that. So they

0:01:54.960 --> 0:01:58.600
<v Speaker 1>showed that they they end up in divorced the most.

0:01:59.080 --> 0:02:03.280
<v Speaker 1>Then hetero sexual relationships end up in divorce the second most.

0:02:03.840 --> 0:02:07.400
<v Speaker 1>Gay relationships between a man and a man, they are

0:02:07.440 --> 0:02:09.680
<v Speaker 1>the least likely to end up in divorce.

0:02:10.440 --> 0:02:11.960
<v Speaker 2>You know what the problem is?

0:02:12.200 --> 0:02:12.519
<v Speaker 1>Women?

0:02:18.600 --> 0:02:21.320
<v Speaker 2>You see that point? Many talking too much.

0:02:21.400 --> 0:02:26.160
<v Speaker 1>So Jacob and Chris, we're telling me a story about

0:02:26.240 --> 0:02:29.880
<v Speaker 1>the fight that they got into one time and they

0:02:30.160 --> 0:02:33.840
<v Speaker 1>had to take an uber and Jacob was so minding

0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:36.440
<v Speaker 1>to make his point that when they got into the

0:02:36.520 --> 0:02:40.440
<v Speaker 1>uber Jacob, who is a therapist, that's what he does

0:02:40.480 --> 0:02:44.960
<v Speaker 1>for a living, ask doctor. The doctor asked the uber

0:02:45.080 --> 0:02:49.000
<v Speaker 1>driver for advice, and I thought, that is the funniest thing.

0:02:49.400 --> 0:02:51.760
<v Speaker 1>How many times have you guys, ever been out in

0:02:51.840 --> 0:02:55.000
<v Speaker 1>public in a fight with your significant other, your partner

0:02:55.480 --> 0:03:00.359
<v Speaker 1>and you end up fighting only to have complete strangers

0:03:00.400 --> 0:03:01.800
<v Speaker 1>get involved in your argument.

0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:07.720
<v Speaker 2>You are really it's an honest party that doesn't have

0:03:07.760 --> 0:03:11.280
<v Speaker 2>any affiliation. They can't pick a side. They just have

0:03:11.360 --> 0:03:13.680
<v Speaker 2>to go based on either our arguments or the facts

0:03:13.720 --> 0:03:16.560
<v Speaker 2>that are presented. And I think it depends on how

0:03:16.600 --> 0:03:18.680
<v Speaker 2>you frame it too, though, because if you bring it

0:03:18.760 --> 0:03:20.400
<v Speaker 2>up to someone else and the way you frame it

0:03:20.440 --> 0:03:25.280
<v Speaker 2>to them, then they're usually automatically. I'm like, hey, excuse me,

0:03:25.360 --> 0:03:28.840
<v Speaker 2>and it's you like, settle a debate real quick. Me like,

0:03:28.880 --> 0:03:31.200
<v Speaker 2>that's how you got to do. That's how I feel like.

0:03:31.240 --> 0:03:33.399
<v Speaker 2>I do this all the time on the show with Wes.

0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:39.120
<v Speaker 3>Unfortunately our listeners always choose West Side, but we do

0:03:39.120 --> 0:03:40.000
<v Speaker 3>do that a lot.

0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:41.720
<v Speaker 2>Has that ever happened to it?

0:03:41.880 --> 0:03:43.920
<v Speaker 1>We have any Uber drivers that are listening that have

0:03:44.080 --> 0:03:47.600
<v Speaker 1>ever been driving for a couple that's fighting with each

0:03:47.600 --> 0:03:50.720
<v Speaker 1>other and you had to like deal with the fighting

0:03:50.800 --> 0:03:53.040
<v Speaker 1>and give advice. You have to call us up and

0:03:53.320 --> 0:03:55.760
<v Speaker 1>tell us. Or have you ever been out in public

0:03:55.840 --> 0:03:58.800
<v Speaker 1>and somebody like butts into your business? I remember one

0:03:58.840 --> 0:04:01.480
<v Speaker 1>time it was. I called it, like we talked about

0:04:01.480 --> 0:04:04.120
<v Speaker 1>home alone. I called it the home alone moment where

0:04:04.200 --> 0:04:06.160
<v Speaker 1>you know how in home alone is like the nice

0:04:06.640 --> 0:04:10.680
<v Speaker 1>lady that's in Central Park ends up helping the birds. Yeah,

0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:14.560
<v Speaker 1>the bird lady becomes like Kevin's friend or something like that.

0:04:14.840 --> 0:04:17.240
<v Speaker 1>Like Chelsea and I were out and I remember we

0:04:17.240 --> 0:04:19.680
<v Speaker 1>were getting into like a little bit of a spat

0:04:19.720 --> 0:04:22.120
<v Speaker 1>with each other, and this old woman who was like

0:04:22.200 --> 0:04:24.680
<v Speaker 1>missus doubtfire comes out of nowhere and goes.

0:04:24.920 --> 0:04:26.039
<v Speaker 2>You too should know.

0:04:26.200 --> 0:04:27.960
<v Speaker 1>And it was like she had like kind of an

0:04:27.960 --> 0:04:29.600
<v Speaker 1>old lady voice, and she was wearing like one of

0:04:29.640 --> 0:04:32.400
<v Speaker 1>those old lady dresses and stuff like that. I'm telling you,

0:04:32.400 --> 0:04:34.039
<v Speaker 1>if I lifted the wig off her head, it would

0:04:34.080 --> 0:04:36.560
<v Speaker 1>have been missus doubtfire. And she kind of settled our

0:04:36.640 --> 0:04:40.360
<v Speaker 1>argument with each other, and she basically told me you're

0:04:40.360 --> 0:04:43.320
<v Speaker 1>a pain in the asta and be nice and basically

0:04:43.360 --> 0:04:46.040
<v Speaker 1>gave us advice. And it's so funny because you never

0:04:46.160 --> 0:04:51.080
<v Speaker 1>know when you're going to be the blessing to somebody's day.

0:04:51.200 --> 0:04:52.640
<v Speaker 1>This woman was a blessing for us.

0:04:52.720 --> 0:04:55.360
<v Speaker 2>It's also so much more productive. I think you need

0:04:55.400 --> 0:04:56.359
<v Speaker 2>a third person.

0:04:56.800 --> 0:04:59.479
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean that's where that's why therapists are so

0:05:00.480 --> 0:05:01.360
<v Speaker 1>And have.

0:05:01.360 --> 0:05:03.320
<v Speaker 2>You ever had this happen to you? This has happened

0:05:03.360 --> 0:05:04.440
<v Speaker 2>to me and Chelse two.

0:05:04.920 --> 0:05:08.200
<v Speaker 1>We're in a restaurant and we're hanging out like wherever

0:05:08.320 --> 0:05:10.960
<v Speaker 1>Cony or something, and we're kind of not good with

0:05:11.000 --> 0:05:13.560
<v Speaker 1>each other. And then you look over and you see

0:05:13.560 --> 0:05:16.839
<v Speaker 1>that old couple sitting in a booth and you see

0:05:16.920 --> 0:05:20.040
<v Speaker 1>the love that they have still for each other. Yeah,

0:05:20.080 --> 0:05:23.039
<v Speaker 1>and you're kind of like, all right, this is gonna

0:05:23.040 --> 0:05:24.479
<v Speaker 1>be us one day.

0:05:24.240 --> 0:05:26.480
<v Speaker 2>You know, Or it's not gonna be us if we

0:05:26.560 --> 0:05:27.159
<v Speaker 2>don't resolve.

0:05:29.120 --> 0:05:31.320
<v Speaker 1>It's going to be me and a twenty year old.

0:05:33.839 --> 0:05:36.520
<v Speaker 1>But eight for four Mojo Live eight for four six

0:05:36.640 --> 0:05:39.200
<v Speaker 1>six five six five four eight. The text is nine

0:05:39.320 --> 0:05:44.200
<v Speaker 1>five five zero zero. Has a stranger ever had to

0:05:44.279 --> 0:05:49.039
<v Speaker 1>like give you any kind of relationship advice or gave

0:05:49.080 --> 0:05:51.680
<v Speaker 1>you you know, have you ever pulled a stranger into

0:05:51.760 --> 0:05:52.640
<v Speaker 1>your your fight?

0:05:53.000 --> 0:05:54.560
<v Speaker 2>Janine? What's going on? How you doing?

0:05:55.920 --> 0:05:56.440
<v Speaker 4>Oh?

0:05:56.560 --> 0:06:00.640
<v Speaker 5>When my daughter was little, going to be forty. I

0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:02.719
<v Speaker 5>had been in a store with her and she was

0:06:02.760 --> 0:06:04.359
<v Speaker 5>mouthing off to me, and she was telling me she

0:06:04.400 --> 0:06:06.640
<v Speaker 5>wanted candy. So I took two fingers and I smacked

0:06:06.640 --> 0:06:09.039
<v Speaker 5>her across the face. So I look up and this

0:06:09.160 --> 0:06:11.880
<v Speaker 5>lady comes around the aisle looking at me like she's

0:06:11.920 --> 0:06:13.599
<v Speaker 5>going to give it to me. And I turned to

0:06:13.600 --> 0:06:15.440
<v Speaker 5>her and I said, if you say one word to me,

0:06:15.680 --> 0:06:18.200
<v Speaker 5>you're next, because I am not doing that.

0:06:19.240 --> 0:06:20.479
<v Speaker 2>Gine. That's not where I thought.

0:06:23.880 --> 0:06:25.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I don't know if I want to say anything

0:06:25.839 --> 0:06:28.680
<v Speaker 1>to Janine, might get two fine, no offense.

0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:33.280
<v Speaker 2>I didn't get two fingers. I didn't. I didn't. I didn't.

0:06:36.680 --> 0:06:39.120
<v Speaker 2>All Right, what a first call to take on this one? Amy?

0:06:39.160 --> 0:06:41.360
<v Speaker 2>Are you there? Amy, I'm here.

0:06:41.520 --> 0:06:43.719
<v Speaker 3>I just texted then, and I promise I will not

0:06:43.800 --> 0:06:47.320
<v Speaker 3>see backwards on the radio. But very very uncomfortable situation.

0:06:47.440 --> 0:06:49.760
<v Speaker 3>A friend of mine from high school. I ended up

0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:52.760
<v Speaker 3>introducing her to her husband and they were married for

0:06:52.800 --> 0:06:56.840
<v Speaker 3>a long time. Then went and played cards with her

0:06:56.880 --> 0:07:00.280
<v Speaker 3>and her husband. Everything seemed to be fine. They got

0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:03.520
<v Speaker 3>into an argument and she called him an effing midget,

0:07:04.160 --> 0:07:09.360
<v Speaker 3>oh like with force, and we just sat there full. Yes,

0:07:11.000 --> 0:07:14.520
<v Speaker 3>he was shorter than her, but it was so uncomfortable.

0:07:14.600 --> 0:07:16.200
<v Speaker 3>We just sat there and didn't know what to do,

0:07:16.280 --> 0:07:17.280
<v Speaker 3>and I just wanted to leave.

0:07:18.000 --> 0:07:20.880
<v Speaker 2>M Again, this is not where I thought this topic

0:07:21.080 --> 0:07:21.520
<v Speaker 2>was going to go.

0:07:21.960 --> 0:07:25.520
<v Speaker 1>I was looking for wonderful moments where a stranger came

0:07:25.560 --> 0:07:27.080
<v Speaker 1>in and helped you out.

0:07:27.840 --> 0:07:31.080
<v Speaker 2>That was not it. No, okay, so far, I'm over

0:07:31.200 --> 0:07:34.520
<v Speaker 2>two on calls. Let's see what three has to say. Lydia, Hi, Lydia,

0:07:35.840 --> 0:07:37.760
<v Speaker 2>Good morning, guys. Morning.

0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:41.320
<v Speaker 4>So, as an uber driver, I have to say it

0:07:41.400 --> 0:07:45.840
<v Speaker 4>is undoubtedly more uncomfortable when people are arguing in my

0:07:45.880 --> 0:07:47.920
<v Speaker 4>back seat than it is if they're making out.

0:07:48.400 --> 0:07:52.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh okay, so if there's PDA going on in the

0:07:52.200 --> 0:07:54.760
<v Speaker 1>back seat, that's not that uncomfortable.

0:07:55.200 --> 0:07:58.400
<v Speaker 2>But if they're arguing and there's.

0:07:58.200 --> 0:08:02.120
<v Speaker 4>All this tension and raised voices, and then when somebody

0:08:02.160 --> 0:08:07.960
<v Speaker 4>asks for my opinion, honestly, I'm gonna go with whoever's

0:08:08.440 --> 0:08:16.200
<v Speaker 4>named the ride is in because it increased chance of anship.

0:08:16.440 --> 0:08:17.680
<v Speaker 2>I never thought about that.

0:08:17.760 --> 0:08:18.360
<v Speaker 4>Absolutely.

0:08:19.040 --> 0:08:22.520
<v Speaker 1>Do you have to like physically look at your your

0:08:22.560 --> 0:08:24.239
<v Speaker 1>app to see who it was they called?

0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:28.640
<v Speaker 4>No, I mean, honestly, you kind of know by the name,

0:08:28.920 --> 0:08:31.840
<v Speaker 4>or you know whoever speaks first is normally the person

0:08:31.880 --> 0:08:33.880
<v Speaker 4>that's taking charge with the ride.

0:08:34.000 --> 0:08:38.160
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, you know exactly. That's interesting. All right, we

0:08:38.200 --> 0:08:40.200
<v Speaker 1>got another uber drive around with us. Have you had

0:08:40.240 --> 0:08:43.079
<v Speaker 1>to do uber therapy, Kerry?

0:08:44.559 --> 0:08:47.480
<v Speaker 6>Yes, I have, and I usually go with the wife

0:08:47.480 --> 0:08:50.600
<v Speaker 6>side just and kind of ease the husband to the

0:08:50.640 --> 0:08:53.360
<v Speaker 6>wife side so he don't get in too much trouble

0:08:53.360 --> 0:08:54.640
<v Speaker 6>on he I'm getting on Noki later.

0:08:55.040 --> 0:08:58.520
<v Speaker 1>Oh okay, So I kind of get this idea that

0:08:58.600 --> 0:08:59.480
<v Speaker 1>you're you're.

0:09:00.120 --> 0:09:01.720
<v Speaker 6>Be wife happy life.

0:09:52.280 --> 0:09:55.880
<v Speaker 7>Good morning, Good morning. My husband and I recently last week,

0:09:55.920 --> 0:09:59.720
<v Speaker 7>we're out having a glass of wine and we did

0:09:59.760 --> 0:10:04.040
<v Speaker 7>get the little snit at the bar quietly, and I

0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:05.800
<v Speaker 7>was asking him to take it home with.

0:10:05.840 --> 0:10:08.200
<v Speaker 8>Me and deal with it there. And next thing I know,

0:10:08.480 --> 0:10:13.400
<v Speaker 8>our ex mayor from our town walked up interrupted and said,

0:10:13.440 --> 0:10:15.760
<v Speaker 8>in case you're having an argument, I wanted to show

0:10:15.760 --> 0:10:16.520
<v Speaker 8>you my new puppy.

0:10:17.240 --> 0:10:19.559
<v Speaker 2>What and he had a puppy with him.

0:10:19.600 --> 0:10:22.160
<v Speaker 8>He had a puppy with her.

0:10:22.800 --> 0:10:23.679
<v Speaker 2>Oh, and she.

0:10:23.679 --> 0:10:26.280
<v Speaker 7>Said in case you're in said, in case you're having

0:10:26.280 --> 0:10:28.360
<v Speaker 7>an argument, let me show you my new puppy.

0:10:28.760 --> 0:10:31.720
<v Speaker 2>And what did it do? Did it make you guys happy?

0:10:31.840 --> 0:10:33.240
<v Speaker 2>Or did you guys just know?

0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:35.760
<v Speaker 8>I stared at her, like, are you insane?

0:10:37.200 --> 0:10:37.360
<v Speaker 4>That?

0:10:37.800 --> 0:10:40.120
<v Speaker 2>Wow? What town do you live in? What town?

0:10:40.200 --> 0:10:42.960
<v Speaker 8>Is this the salt Colorado?

0:10:43.400 --> 0:10:46.840
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Colorado? Wow, that's wild.

0:10:46.880 --> 0:10:48.000
<v Speaker 8>They saw Colorado.

0:10:48.400 --> 0:10:50.680
<v Speaker 2>That's why he just wanted to sitation.

0:10:51.000 --> 0:10:54.679
<v Speaker 1>But she knew even though you thought you were quietly arguing, Suzanne,

0:10:54.800 --> 0:10:56.400
<v Speaker 1>she knew that there was something going on in the

0:10:56.520 --> 0:10:57.640
<v Speaker 1>attention between the two of you.

0:10:58.400 --> 0:11:00.840
<v Speaker 7>Oh, I give it to her. Yeah for sure. Yeah,

0:11:01.600 --> 0:11:04.280
<v Speaker 7>it could have been obvious I'm not not disagreeing.

0:11:04.559 --> 0:11:08.120
<v Speaker 1>My favorite is to go to and other couples are

0:11:08.200 --> 0:11:10.440
<v Speaker 1>arguing because I think what it ends up happening is

0:11:10.440 --> 0:11:13.240
<v Speaker 1>that it brings Chelsea and I closer together because you

0:11:13.280 --> 0:11:15.520
<v Speaker 1>start seeing other couples like that where they look like

0:11:15.520 --> 0:11:17.920
<v Speaker 1>they don't even talk to each other, and I look

0:11:17.960 --> 0:11:20.160
<v Speaker 1>and I go, at least we got a better relationship

0:11:20.120 --> 0:11:21.800
<v Speaker 1>than they right now, you know what I mean?

0:11:23.240 --> 0:11:26.120
<v Speaker 7>Honestly, yes, have commented on that.

0:11:26.240 --> 0:11:28.440
<v Speaker 8>For sure, we were that other couple that night.

0:11:28.600 --> 0:11:33.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, thank you for the call. I appreciate it. Susan time.

0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:36.440
