WEBVTT - Mojo Hitchhiked  

0:00:00.360 --> 0:00:02.960
<v Speaker 1>It's Mojoe in the morning. So I want to do

0:00:03.000 --> 0:00:06.480
<v Speaker 1>a couple of topics here right now before our special

0:00:06.559 --> 0:00:10.920
<v Speaker 1>guest comes in. Our special surprise guest comes in close

0:00:10.960 --> 0:00:12.760
<v Speaker 1>the door, so I don't get so I don't blow

0:00:12.800 --> 0:00:15.760
<v Speaker 1>my surprise. I guess there's a little surprise coming here

0:00:15.760 --> 0:00:18.160
<v Speaker 1>in just a couple and I know that I'll hear

0:00:18.239 --> 0:00:20.640
<v Speaker 1>the surprise before I see the surprise. And I don't

0:00:20.640 --> 0:00:22.080
<v Speaker 1>even want to hear it. It's like I don't want

0:00:22.079 --> 0:00:25.600
<v Speaker 1>to hear Santa walking in right. So this weekend went

0:00:25.680 --> 0:00:29.920
<v Speaker 1>up to Michigan State for the Michigan State Michigan game

0:00:30.280 --> 0:00:33.040
<v Speaker 1>in East Lansing, and I did something that is really smart.

0:00:33.080 --> 0:00:35.360
<v Speaker 1>I want you to try this thing out. I hitchhiked.

0:00:35.640 --> 0:00:36.760
<v Speaker 1>Have you ever hitchhiked?

0:00:37.000 --> 0:00:37.159
<v Speaker 2>More?

0:00:37.680 --> 0:00:39.959
<v Speaker 1>I want to talk about first off, anybody ever hitchhike before?

0:00:39.960 --> 0:00:42.040
<v Speaker 1>I want you to call us up like thumb out

0:00:42.159 --> 0:00:44.159
<v Speaker 1>on the side of the row kind of well, not

0:00:44.159 --> 0:00:46.479
<v Speaker 1>really thumb out, phone out. I'm going to explain this

0:00:46.520 --> 0:00:49.440
<v Speaker 1>to you. So went up to the game. Chelsea and

0:00:49.479 --> 0:00:52.240
<v Speaker 1>I were driving and I explained to Chelsea, I go, hey,

0:00:52.640 --> 0:00:57.400
<v Speaker 1>we're going to park at the Starbucks in Okamus that's

0:00:57.440 --> 0:01:01.280
<v Speaker 1>on that first exit there before you get into East Lansing,

0:01:01.880 --> 0:01:04.200
<v Speaker 1>and I said, we're going to park there and we're

0:01:04.240 --> 0:01:08.920
<v Speaker 1>going to uber to Luke's fraternity house because the traffic

0:01:09.040 --> 0:01:11.600
<v Speaker 1>is a mess for this game, and they close off

0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:15.880
<v Speaker 1>every single street, normal streets and normal games. They don't

0:01:15.880 --> 0:01:17.520
<v Speaker 1>even if this is such a big game that that's

0:01:17.640 --> 0:01:19.720
<v Speaker 1>their thing because they have so much more tailgating going on.

0:01:20.240 --> 0:01:22.800
<v Speaker 1>So she's like, Okay, that's cool, So we do it.

0:01:22.880 --> 0:01:25.040
<v Speaker 1>We go and she's like, that was actually really smart

0:01:25.040 --> 0:01:27.320
<v Speaker 1>of you, honey. You're the greatest husband in the world.

0:01:27.360 --> 0:01:29.360
<v Speaker 1>She didn't say this, but in my head she was

0:01:29.360 --> 0:01:31.600
<v Speaker 1>saying this as we were in this uber driving to

0:01:31.880 --> 0:01:34.000
<v Speaker 1>the you know, the frat house.

0:01:34.760 --> 0:01:36.240
<v Speaker 3>And so we hung out of the frat house for

0:01:36.240 --> 0:01:36.640
<v Speaker 3>a little bit.

0:01:36.680 --> 0:01:38.319
<v Speaker 1>And I don't know how it was for you and

0:01:38.880 --> 0:01:41.400
<v Speaker 1>West and the kids, but if you try to use

0:01:41.400 --> 0:01:44.160
<v Speaker 1>your phone around campus, you couldn't even get a signal.

0:01:44.319 --> 0:01:46.080
<v Speaker 3>It was that was crazy.

0:01:46.480 --> 0:01:49.800
<v Speaker 1>So we are you know, we're there, and I'm trying

0:01:49.800 --> 0:01:51.880
<v Speaker 1>to text even you guys like pictures of ass juice

0:01:51.920 --> 0:01:54.400
<v Speaker 1>and stuff like that, and I couldn't see them go through.

0:01:54.480 --> 0:01:57.160
<v Speaker 1>They kept going failed, failed, failed, So I'm like, oh, crap.

0:01:57.200 --> 0:01:59.280
<v Speaker 1>This is gonna suck when we leave her and we

0:01:59.360 --> 0:02:02.600
<v Speaker 1>try to get in Uber out. So we get out

0:02:02.640 --> 0:02:05.160
<v Speaker 1>of the party. We go to the front at his

0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:07.800
<v Speaker 1>frat house and I go grab my phone and I

0:02:07.880 --> 0:02:11.320
<v Speaker 1>cannot load Uber on my phone. Oh and I am

0:02:11.360 --> 0:02:12.959
<v Speaker 1>looking at this thing, going what's going on? And I

0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:14.440
<v Speaker 1>don't know if you guys do this? And I got

0:02:14.480 --> 0:02:17.040
<v Speaker 1>my phone here to show you on video when your

0:02:17.080 --> 0:02:18.000
<v Speaker 1>phone's not working.

0:02:18.040 --> 0:02:19.320
<v Speaker 3>Do you ever just hould it up?

0:02:19.400 --> 0:02:22.160
<v Speaker 1>Yes, I do that all the time, Like that's gonna help,

0:02:22.240 --> 0:02:24.240
<v Speaker 1>but to put it two feet in the air and

0:02:24.280 --> 0:02:26.239
<v Speaker 1>you're like, I'm putting one arm up in the air

0:02:26.280 --> 0:02:30.440
<v Speaker 1>like I'm seeing like if there's an antenna, and I'm

0:02:30.520 --> 0:02:32.640
<v Speaker 1>like trying to do this thing. So I had my

0:02:32.880 --> 0:02:35.280
<v Speaker 1>hand up in the air and I'm doing this and

0:02:35.360 --> 0:02:40.760
<v Speaker 1>this guy pulls up in a white Ford expedition. Okay,

0:02:40.840 --> 0:02:43.480
<v Speaker 1>pulls up in a white Ford expedition, rolls the window

0:02:43.560 --> 0:02:45.200
<v Speaker 1>down and go everything okay.

0:02:45.560 --> 0:02:47.919
<v Speaker 3>And I look at him and I go, hey, would

0:02:47.960 --> 0:02:50.160
<v Speaker 3>you give us a ride? And I literally asked this

0:02:50.200 --> 0:02:53.480
<v Speaker 3>guy And it turns out he was a Michigan fan.

0:02:53.680 --> 0:02:55.960
<v Speaker 1>Go Blue, I'll be a Michigan fan because you gave

0:02:55.960 --> 0:02:59.960
<v Speaker 1>me a ride wearing a Jim Harbaugh jersey.

0:03:00.040 --> 0:03:01.040
<v Speaker 3>He's from East Point.

0:03:01.480 --> 0:03:03.760
<v Speaker 1>He was coming up to watch the games with his buddies,

0:03:04.120 --> 0:03:06.920
<v Speaker 1>and he got up early to tailgate and he literally

0:03:07.080 --> 0:03:08.960
<v Speaker 1>drove us. And I gave the guy some money to

0:03:09.040 --> 0:03:13.600
<v Speaker 1>drive us to the car, so I officially didn't hitchhike

0:03:13.680 --> 0:03:15.000
<v Speaker 1>because I didn't have my thumb out.

0:03:15.040 --> 0:03:17.640
<v Speaker 3>Did you still hold your thumb when you're hit with

0:03:17.680 --> 0:03:19.440
<v Speaker 3>this or was she like what are you doing?

0:03:19.720 --> 0:03:23.080
<v Speaker 1>Honestly, Chelsea was in a mood where she was willing

0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:23.800
<v Speaker 1>to try anything.

0:03:23.880 --> 0:03:25.080
<v Speaker 3>She was ready to go. Yeah.

0:03:25.160 --> 0:03:26.959
<v Speaker 1>I said to her, I go, this might be ed

0:03:27.080 --> 0:03:32.280
<v Speaker 1>Gean right now. We're going to his barn, his house

0:03:32.360 --> 0:03:33.840
<v Speaker 1>to see mother. He's like, I think we should go

0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:34.080
<v Speaker 1>on this.

0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:36.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:03:36.600 --> 0:03:39.240
<v Speaker 1>It was wild though, because I normally would never be

0:03:39.320 --> 0:03:40.800
<v Speaker 1>the type of person that would get in a car

0:03:40.840 --> 0:03:45.200
<v Speaker 1>by myself. But I also figured I'm not really by myself.

0:03:45.240 --> 0:03:48.840
<v Speaker 1>I'll get in with Chelse and then at least if

0:03:48.880 --> 0:03:53.560
<v Speaker 1>they murder anybody, they'll get her first and then me second.

0:03:54.120 --> 0:03:56.480
<v Speaker 1>If he's by the way, if he's listening. This guy

0:03:56.560 --> 0:03:59.160
<v Speaker 1>was great. He's Palestinian. He was like such a good guy.

0:03:59.400 --> 0:04:01.520
<v Speaker 1>We drove the whole way, he said, he listened to

0:04:01.520 --> 0:04:03.040
<v Speaker 1>the show. It was cool.

0:04:03.320 --> 0:04:03.480
<v Speaker 2>Man.

0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:06.160
<v Speaker 3>Do you think he initially recognized you or was he just.

0:04:07.560 --> 0:04:11.400
<v Speaker 1>Here's the funniest thing is that he like shout out

0:04:11.840 --> 0:04:14.200
<v Speaker 1>the show. He knew right away, like, and I think

0:04:14.200 --> 0:04:15.000
<v Speaker 1>that was okay.

0:04:15.040 --> 0:04:17.680
<v Speaker 3>It was cool. It was nice enough to give the ride. Keith.

0:04:17.720 --> 0:04:18.440
<v Speaker 3>Are you there, Keith?

0:04:19.320 --> 0:04:20.119
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, we're here.

0:04:20.400 --> 0:04:21.280
<v Speaker 3>What's who's word?

0:04:22.520 --> 0:04:24.360
<v Speaker 4>Me and the kids on the way to school today.

0:04:24.400 --> 0:04:26.840
<v Speaker 1>Hey guys, oh wait a second, and you're gonna tell

0:04:26.880 --> 0:04:28.680
<v Speaker 1>us a story here that we don't want your kids

0:04:28.680 --> 0:04:30.279
<v Speaker 1>to ever do you know?

0:04:30.400 --> 0:04:32.640
<v Speaker 4>Actually they're a part of it. You know, their mother

0:04:32.680 --> 0:04:35.279
<v Speaker 4>and when we split up, that's how we end up

0:04:35.320 --> 0:04:39.120
<v Speaker 4>splitting up. I got back to our condo in Port Austin.

0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:43.200
<v Speaker 4>Beds were made backpack on the bed and I, oh, man,

0:04:43.240 --> 0:04:46.760
<v Speaker 4>I'm in trouble. So how am I gonna get home? Well,

0:04:46.800 --> 0:04:49.320
<v Speaker 4>I guess I gotta walk. So try to call n

0:04:49.360 --> 0:04:51.760
<v Speaker 4>Uber and no Luber's would come get me in Port Austin.

0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:54.520
<v Speaker 4>So I said, well, it's time to start walking. So

0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:57.520
<v Speaker 4>I started walking nine and a half hours on my

0:04:57.800 --> 0:05:02.320
<v Speaker 4>Google Walk and I walked and hitchtriked all the way

0:05:02.320 --> 0:05:04.760
<v Speaker 4>to Flint before I could get it in the uber

0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:05.599
<v Speaker 4>get home.

0:05:05.720 --> 0:05:10.560
<v Speaker 3>Wait, explain to me port Austin. Where's Port Austin, right

0:05:10.560 --> 0:05:11.680
<v Speaker 3>in the thumb of Michigan.

0:05:11.880 --> 0:05:13.960
<v Speaker 1>You were up in the thumb and you went all

0:05:14.000 --> 0:05:16.080
<v Speaker 1>the way from there to Flint Walk to.

0:05:16.080 --> 0:05:22.359
<v Speaker 4>Sixty nine in Flint. Yeah, thinking about nine hours. I

0:05:22.480 --> 0:05:24.360
<v Speaker 4>used Google Walk luckily.

0:05:25.520 --> 0:05:26.320
<v Speaker 3>Battery on my.

0:05:28.600 --> 0:05:30.800
<v Speaker 4>Turn it off and turning it on, and then I

0:05:30.880 --> 0:05:32.800
<v Speaker 4>just held my thumb out and I got about five

0:05:32.960 --> 0:05:35.480
<v Speaker 4>rides for about a couple of miles each. You helped

0:05:35.520 --> 0:05:36.719
<v Speaker 4>me out on a lot of walking.

0:05:37.040 --> 0:05:41.680
<v Speaker 1>You tell those kids, do not kids are kids? Do

0:05:41.800 --> 0:05:44.640
<v Speaker 1>not try this at home. You do not want to

0:05:44.680 --> 0:05:46.760
<v Speaker 1>do this. Do not get in a car with a

0:05:46.800 --> 0:05:48.400
<v Speaker 1>strange person. Your dad's nuts.

0:05:50.360 --> 0:05:50.839
<v Speaker 3>I am not.

0:05:51.240 --> 0:05:53.680
<v Speaker 4>Let me tell you I got home before they got home.

0:05:54.120 --> 0:05:58.159

0:06:10.560 --> 0:06:10.839
<v Speaker 2>Hey?

<v Speaker 3>How are you good? What's going on?

0:06:13.960 --> 0:06:16.240
<v Speaker 2>So? I went to bash at the Bay and Lake

0:06:16.240 --> 0:06:18.960
<v Speaker 2>Erie two years ago when Jelly Roll was playing, and

0:06:19.120 --> 0:06:21.000
<v Speaker 2>the way their venue is set up is just like

0:06:21.040 --> 0:06:23.880
<v Speaker 2>a three mile walk from the actual stage to the

0:06:23.920 --> 0:06:25.520
<v Speaker 2>little town where all the bars are.

0:06:25.800 --> 0:06:26.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:06:26.320 --> 0:06:29.800
<v Speaker 2>So at the end of this concert, we start just following.

0:06:29.800 --> 0:06:31.640
<v Speaker 2>People have no idea where we are, and I'm like,

0:06:31.640 --> 0:06:34.760
<v Speaker 2>you know what, freak this. I'm going to turn my

0:06:35.120 --> 0:06:37.000
<v Speaker 2>cell phone light on and stick it out in the

0:06:37.080 --> 0:06:39.200
<v Speaker 2>road because there's a bunch of people driving down the

0:06:39.279 --> 0:06:42.280
<v Speaker 2>road in golf carts and we get picked up by

0:06:42.320 --> 0:06:45.240
<v Speaker 2>these two drunk old ladies that take us to a

0:06:45.320 --> 0:06:47.600
<v Speaker 2>bar and start buying them drinks.

0:06:47.880 --> 0:06:51.880
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god. Wow, it was a good time.

0:06:51.920 --> 0:06:53.800
<v Speaker 2>It was so much fun, and it's a great way

0:06:53.800 --> 0:06:54.440
<v Speaker 2>to meet people.

0:06:54.800 --> 0:06:58.920
<v Speaker 1>I hear all the time that people will hitchhike around

0:06:59.000 --> 0:07:02.800
<v Speaker 1>festivals like that happens. And what's the country festival out

0:07:02.920 --> 0:07:06.720
<v Speaker 1>in faster Horses? Yeah, the faster Horses. There's a lot

0:07:06.720 --> 0:07:08.360
<v Speaker 1>of that going on. Lauren, are you there?

0:07:10.080 --> 0:07:10.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm here.

0:07:11.160 --> 0:07:13.520
<v Speaker 3>What's up, Lauren? You hitchhiked?

0:07:15.680 --> 0:07:19.520
<v Speaker 2>I did not intentionally, but I had to, and I

0:07:19.600 --> 0:07:23.520
<v Speaker 2>had two well, there was two nurses in a car

0:07:24.400 --> 0:07:28.400
<v Speaker 2>and I was I could see the exit, but thank

0:07:28.440 --> 0:07:31.520
<v Speaker 2>goodness of the summertime. So I reluctantly got in the

0:07:31.560 --> 0:07:33.520
<v Speaker 2>backseat of their car and they're like, it's okay, you

0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:37.440
<v Speaker 2>can trust us. You know we're nurses, uh female one

0:07:37.520 --> 0:07:39.800
<v Speaker 2>was a male nurse, and they showed me their badge.

0:07:39.920 --> 0:07:43.680
<v Speaker 2>But in the whole back seat, I mean we're talking

0:07:44.280 --> 0:07:46.480
<v Speaker 2>bundles and pieces of meat.

0:07:46.920 --> 0:07:50.960
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god, everywhere were looking.

0:07:51.600 --> 0:07:54.200
<v Speaker 2>And I'm like, there's a lot of meat here, and

0:07:54.240 --> 0:07:56.760
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, is this like real?

0:07:56.920 --> 0:07:56.960
<v Speaker 3>Me?

0:07:57.320 --> 0:07:58.720
