WEBVTT - Pulling a Stranger Into Your Fight  

0:00:00.480 --> 0:00:02.279
<v Speaker 1>All right, it's Mojo in the morning show.

0:00:02.440 --> 0:00:06.159
<v Speaker 2>It was so much fun having Jacob and his boyfriend,

0:00:06.320 --> 0:00:09.959
<v Speaker 2>Chris my son and his boyfriend hanging out with us.

0:00:10.720 --> 0:00:14.080
<v Speaker 2>I have to tell you, I am absolutely in love

0:00:14.320 --> 0:00:18.200
<v Speaker 2>with their relationship. As a dad, there is nothing that

0:00:18.239 --> 0:00:22.840
<v Speaker 2>will make you happier than when your children find somebody

0:00:23.000 --> 0:00:26.400
<v Speaker 2>that treats them as good as you treat them.

0:00:26.680 --> 0:00:28.960
<v Speaker 1>And I'm getting a little cloudy.

0:00:29.040 --> 0:00:33.680
<v Speaker 2>Yes, Chris is a wonderful guy, and Jacob is wonderful

0:00:33.720 --> 0:00:36.800
<v Speaker 2>to him. And it's so funny. You know, Chris has

0:00:37.240 --> 0:00:40.599
<v Speaker 2>a podcast that he does, and he does also a

0:00:41.760 --> 0:00:46.639
<v Speaker 2>he does technical or he writes reviews on tech products

0:00:46.680 --> 0:00:47.279
<v Speaker 2>and things like that.

0:00:47.360 --> 0:00:48.920
<v Speaker 1>Like he's a really good kid.

0:00:48.960 --> 0:00:50.600
<v Speaker 2>And when he came into the studio to see our

0:00:50.600 --> 0:00:52.040
<v Speaker 2>studios for the first time because it was his first

0:00:52.080 --> 0:00:55.880
<v Speaker 2>time visiting us in Detroit. They live in Lincoln Park

0:00:55.920 --> 0:00:58.959
<v Speaker 2>in Chicago. He came in the studio, he lit up

0:00:59.160 --> 0:01:01.440
<v Speaker 2>and it was really cool to see how excited he

0:01:01.560 --> 0:01:03.560
<v Speaker 2>was when he got around all the equipment and stuff

0:01:03.560 --> 0:01:07.760
<v Speaker 2>like that. But we were having a conversation through the

0:01:07.760 --> 0:01:09.920
<v Speaker 2>weekend and one of the things that they gave me

0:01:09.959 --> 0:01:12.560
<v Speaker 2>as a potential topic is something I wanted to bring

0:01:12.640 --> 0:01:14.959
<v Speaker 2>up right now. I asked him if they ever fight,

0:01:15.760 --> 0:01:18.679
<v Speaker 2>and Jacob said, oh, yeah, we're not. You know, we're

0:01:18.680 --> 0:01:22.080
<v Speaker 2>not like any you know, crazy relationship that won't admit

0:01:22.120 --> 0:01:24.560
<v Speaker 2>to it, especially being in a same sex relationship. I

0:01:24.600 --> 0:01:26.839
<v Speaker 2>got to be honest with you. You know who fights

0:01:26.880 --> 0:01:30.560
<v Speaker 2>the most out of any couples the lesbians?

0:01:32.120 --> 0:01:33.160
<v Speaker 1>Women. I found this.

0:01:33.400 --> 0:01:36.280
<v Speaker 2>Did you see this statistic? No, there's like light in me.

0:01:36.400 --> 0:01:39.280
<v Speaker 2>There is a statistic that I might get the number

0:01:39.319 --> 0:01:41.680
<v Speaker 2>wrong by like a point or two, that says that

0:01:42.400 --> 0:01:45.720
<v Speaker 2>sixty percent of lesbian relationships, more than fifty percent of

0:01:45.800 --> 0:01:47.600
<v Speaker 2>lesbian relationships end up in divorce.

0:01:47.640 --> 0:01:48.800
<v Speaker 1>How about a sixty nine?

0:01:49.040 --> 0:01:54.880
<v Speaker 2>It may maybe it was wild that that. So they

0:01:55.000 --> 0:01:58.600
<v Speaker 2>showed that they they end up being divorced the most.

0:01:59.120 --> 0:02:03.240
<v Speaker 2>Then hetero sexual relationships end up in divorce the second most.

0:02:03.840 --> 0:02:07.400
<v Speaker 2>Gay relationships between a man and a man, they are

0:02:07.480 --> 0:02:10.640
<v Speaker 2>the least likely to end up in divorce. You know

0:02:10.720 --> 0:02:17.480
<v Speaker 2>what the problem is, women?

0:02:18.600 --> 0:02:21.360
<v Speaker 1>You see that point? Too many lips talking too much.

0:02:21.400 --> 0:02:26.160
<v Speaker 2>So Jacob and Chris, we're telling me a story about

0:02:26.280 --> 0:02:29.920
<v Speaker 2>the fight that they got into one time and they

0:02:30.160 --> 0:02:33.880
<v Speaker 2>had to take an uber and Jacob was so minding

0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:36.440
<v Speaker 2>to make his point that when they got into the

0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:40.440
<v Speaker 2>Uber Jacob, who is a therapist, that's what he does

0:02:40.480 --> 0:02:45.000
<v Speaker 2>for a living, ask doctor. A doctor asked the Uber

0:02:45.120 --> 0:02:49.040
<v Speaker 2>driver for advice, and I thought, that is the funniest thing.

0:02:49.400 --> 0:02:51.800
<v Speaker 2>How many times have you guys, ever been out in

0:02:51.840 --> 0:02:55.000
<v Speaker 2>public in a fight with your significant other, your partner

0:02:55.520 --> 0:03:00.000
<v Speaker 2>and you end up fighting only to have complete strength

0:03:00.400 --> 0:03:01.800
<v Speaker 2>get involved in your argument.

0:03:03.600 --> 0:03:07.239
<v Speaker 3>You are really it's a it's an honest party that

0:03:07.360 --> 0:03:08.600
<v Speaker 3>doesn't have any affiliation.

0:03:09.080 --> 0:03:10.519
<v Speaker 1>They can't pick a side.

0:03:10.840 --> 0:03:13.120
<v Speaker 3>They just have to go based on either our arguments

0:03:13.240 --> 0:03:14.440
<v Speaker 3>or the facts that are presented.

0:03:14.919 --> 0:03:17.760
<v Speaker 1>And I think it depends on how you frame it too, though,

0:03:17.800 --> 0:03:19.560
<v Speaker 1>because if you bring it up to someone else and

0:03:19.600 --> 0:03:22.639
<v Speaker 1>the way you frame it to them, then they're usually automatically.

0:03:24.280 --> 0:03:26.799
<v Speaker 3>I'm like, hey, excuse me, and it's you like, settle

0:03:26.800 --> 0:03:29.800
<v Speaker 3>a debate real quick, like that's how you got to do.

0:03:29.880 --> 0:03:31.200
<v Speaker 1>That's how I feel like.

0:03:31.240 --> 0:03:33.400
<v Speaker 4>I do this all the time on the show with Wes.

0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:39.120
<v Speaker 4>Unfortunately our listeners always choose West Side, but we do

0:03:39.120 --> 0:03:39.920
<v Speaker 4>do that a lot.

0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:41.720
<v Speaker 1>Has that ever happened to it?

0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:43.760
<v Speaker 2>Do we have any Uber drivers that are listening that

0:03:43.840 --> 0:03:47.360
<v Speaker 2>have ever been driving for a couple that's fighting with

0:03:47.440 --> 0:03:50.280
<v Speaker 2>each other, and you had to like deal with the

0:03:50.320 --> 0:03:52.960
<v Speaker 2>fighting and give advice. You have to call us up

0:03:53.200 --> 0:03:55.360
<v Speaker 2>and tell us. Or have you ever been out in

0:03:55.400 --> 0:03:58.600
<v Speaker 2>public and somebody like butts into your business? I remember

0:03:58.640 --> 0:04:01.240
<v Speaker 2>one time it was. I called it, like we talked

0:04:01.240 --> 0:04:03.600
<v Speaker 2>about home alone. I called it the home alone moment

0:04:03.880 --> 0:04:05.680
<v Speaker 2>where you know how in home alone is like the

0:04:05.840 --> 0:04:10.640
<v Speaker 2>nice lady that's in Central Park ends up helping the birds. Yeah,

0:04:11.120 --> 0:04:14.560
<v Speaker 2>the bird lady becomes like Kevin's friend or something like that.

0:04:14.840 --> 0:04:17.280
<v Speaker 2>Like Chelsea and I were out and I remember we

0:04:17.279 --> 0:04:19.719
<v Speaker 2>were getting into like a little bit of a spat

0:04:19.720 --> 0:04:22.120
<v Speaker 2>with each other, and this old woman who was like

0:04:22.200 --> 0:04:24.760
<v Speaker 2>missus doubtfire comes out of nowhere and goes.

0:04:24.920 --> 0:04:26.080
<v Speaker 1>You too should know.

0:04:26.240 --> 0:04:27.960
<v Speaker 2>And it was like she had like kind of an

0:04:27.960 --> 0:04:29.600
<v Speaker 2>old lady voice, and she was wearing like one of

0:04:29.640 --> 0:04:32.400
<v Speaker 2>those old lady dresses and stuff like that. I'm telling you,

0:04:32.440 --> 0:04:34.080
<v Speaker 2>if I lifted the wig off her head, it would

0:04:34.080 --> 0:04:36.560
<v Speaker 2>have been missus doubtfire. And she kind of settled our

0:04:36.640 --> 0:04:40.360
<v Speaker 2>argument with each other, and she basically told me you're

0:04:40.400 --> 0:04:43.359
<v Speaker 2>a pain in the asta and be nice and basically

0:04:43.360 --> 0:04:46.040
<v Speaker 2>gave us advice. And it's so funny because You never

0:04:46.200 --> 0:04:51.120
<v Speaker 2>know when you're going to be the blessing to somebody's day.

0:04:51.240 --> 0:04:52.680
<v Speaker 1>This woman was a blessing for us.

0:04:52.760 --> 0:04:55.400
<v Speaker 4>It's also so much more productive. I think you need

0:04:55.440 --> 0:04:58.560
<v Speaker 4>a third person. Yeah, I mean that's where that's why

0:04:58.640 --> 0:04:59.599
<v Speaker 4>therapists are.

0:04:59.440 --> 0:05:02.520
<v Speaker 2>So And have you ever had this happen to you?

0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:05.320
<v Speaker 2>This has happened to me and Chelse two. We're in

0:05:05.360 --> 0:05:09.200
<v Speaker 2>a restaurant and we're hanging out, like wherever Cony or something,

0:05:09.560 --> 0:05:11.880
<v Speaker 2>and we're kind of not good with each other. And

0:05:11.920 --> 0:05:14.520
<v Speaker 2>then you look over and you see that old couple

0:05:14.560 --> 0:05:17.640
<v Speaker 2>sitting in a booth, and you see the love that

0:05:17.680 --> 0:05:20.680
<v Speaker 2>they have still for each other. Yeah, and you're kind

0:05:20.720 --> 0:05:24.279
<v Speaker 2>of like, all right, this is gonna be us one day.

0:05:24.240 --> 0:05:26.560
<v Speaker 4>You know, or it's not gonna be us if we

0:05:26.560 --> 0:05:27.240
<v Speaker 4>don't resolve this.

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 --> 0:05:36.560
<v Speaker 2>But eight for four Mojo Live eight for four six

0:05:36.680 --> 0:05:39.200
<v Speaker 2>six five six five four eight. The text is nine

0:05:39.320 --> 0:05:44.120
<v Speaker 2>five to five zero zero. Has a stranger ever had

0:05:44.120 --> 0:05:48.320
<v Speaker 2>to like give you any kind of relationship advice or

0:05:48.800 --> 0:05:51.480
<v Speaker 2>gave you, you know, have you ever pulled a stranger

0:05:51.520 --> 0:05:52.680
<v Speaker 2>into your your fight?

0:05:53.040 --> 0:05:54.560
<v Speaker 1>Janine? What's going on? How you doing?

0:05:55.920 --> 0:05:56.480
<v Speaker 5>Oh?

0:05:56.560 --> 0:06:00.640
<v Speaker 6>When my daughter was little's going to be forty. I

0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:02.719
<v Speaker 6>had been in a store with her and she was

0:06:02.800 --> 0:06:04.359
<v Speaker 6>mouthing off to me, and she was telling me she

0:06:04.400 --> 0:06:06.640
<v Speaker 6>wanted candy. So I took two fingers and I smacked

0:06:06.680 --> 0:06:09.039
<v Speaker 6>her across the face. So I look up and this

0:06:09.160 --> 0:06:11.920
<v Speaker 6>lady comes around the aisle looking at me like she's

0:06:11.920 --> 0:06:13.599
<v Speaker 6>going to give it to me. And I turned to

0:06:13.640 --> 0:06:15.479
<v Speaker 6>her and I said, if you say one word to me,

0:06:15.680 --> 0:06:18.000
<v Speaker 6>you're next, because I am not.

0:06:17.920 --> 0:06:22.640
<v Speaker 1>Doing that, Janine. That's not where I thought.

0:06:23.920 --> 0:06:25.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I don't know if I want to say anything

0:06:25.880 --> 0:06:28.679
<v Speaker 3>to Janine might get too fine, no offense.

0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:30.000
<v Speaker 5>I didn't get two fingers.

0:06:30.240 --> 0:06:30.599
<v Speaker 1>I didn't.

0:06:31.120 --> 0:06:33.320
<v Speaker 6>I didn't.

0:06:36.720 --> 0:06:39.159
<v Speaker 1>All right, what a first call to take on this one? Amy?

0:06:39.200 --> 0:06:41.360
<v Speaker 1>Are you there? Amy, I'm here.

0:06:41.520 --> 0:06:43.760
<v Speaker 7>I just texted then, and I promise I will not

0:06:43.800 --> 0:06:47.320
<v Speaker 7>see backwards on the radio. But very very uncomfortable situation.

0:06:47.480 --> 0:06:49.840
<v Speaker 7>A friend of mine from high school. I ended up

0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:52.720
<v Speaker 7>introducing her to her husband and they were married for

0:06:52.800 --> 0:06:56.840
<v Speaker 7>a long time. Then went and played cards with her

0:06:56.880 --> 0:07:00.320
<v Speaker 7>and her husband. Everything seemed to be fine. They got

0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:03.640
<v Speaker 7>into an argument and she called him an effing midget,

0:07:04.560 --> 0:07:11.080
<v Speaker 7>like with force, and we just sat there. Yes, he

0:07:11.240 --> 0:07:14.800
<v Speaker 7>was shorter than her, but it was so uncomfortable. We

0:07:14.880 --> 0:07:16.360
<v Speaker 7>just sat there and didn't know what to do, and

0:07:16.400 --> 0:07:17.320
<v Speaker 7>I just wanted to leave.

0:07:17.920 --> 0:07:20.920
<v Speaker 1>M Again, this is not where I thought this topic

0:07:21.080 --> 0:07:21.520
<v Speaker 1>was going to go.

0:07:22.000 --> 0:07:25.560
<v Speaker 2>I was looking for wonderful moments where a stranger came

0:07:25.600 --> 0:07:27.080
<v Speaker 2>in and helped you out.

0:07:27.520 --> 0:07:28.480
<v Speaker 1>This that was not it.

0:07:28.640 --> 0:07:32.240
<v Speaker 2>No, okay, so far, I'm over two on calls. Let's

0:07:32.240 --> 0:07:33.480
<v Speaker 2>see what three has to say.

0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:36.880
<v Speaker 5>Lydia, Hi, Lydia, Good morning, guys.

0:07:37.400 --> 0:07:37.800
<v Speaker 1>Morning.

0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:41.360
<v Speaker 5>So, as an uber driver, I have to say it

0:07:41.400 --> 0:07:45.880
<v Speaker 5>is undoubtedly more uncomfortable when people are arguing in my

0:07:45.920 --> 0:07:47.920
<v Speaker 5>back seat than it is if they're making out.

0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:52.160
<v Speaker 2>Oh okay, so if there's PDA going on in the

0:07:52.200 --> 0:07:54.760
<v Speaker 2>back seat, that's not that uncomfortable.

0:07:55.200 --> 0:07:56.680
<v Speaker 1>But if they're arguing.

0:07:57.760 --> 0:08:01.480
<v Speaker 5>And there's all this tension and raised voices, and then

0:08:01.520 --> 0:08:06.720
<v Speaker 5>when somebody asks for my opinion, honestly, I'm gonna go

0:08:06.840 --> 0:08:11.280
<v Speaker 5>with whoever's named the ride is in because it increased

0:08:11.400 --> 0:08:16.200
<v Speaker 5>my chance of a headship.

0:08:16.440 --> 0:08:17.720
<v Speaker 1>I never thought about that.

0:08:17.760 --> 0:08:18.400
<v Speaker 5>Absolutely.

0:08:19.040 --> 0:08:22.520
<v Speaker 2>Do you have to like physically look at your your

0:08:22.600 --> 0:08:24.280
<v Speaker 2>app to see who it was they called?

0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:28.679
<v Speaker 5>No, I mean, honestly, you kind of know by the name,

0:08:28.960 --> 0:08:31.840
<v Speaker 5>or you know whoever speaks first is normally the person

0:08:31.920 --> 0:08:33.920
<v Speaker 5>that's taking charge with the ride.

0:08:34.040 --> 0:08:38.200
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, you know exactly. That's interesting. All right, we

0:08:38.240 --> 0:08:40.199
<v Speaker 2>got another uber drive around with us. Have you had

0:08:40.240 --> 0:08:44.120
<v Speaker 2>to do uber therapy, Kerrie?

0:08:44.600 --> 0:08:47.840
<v Speaker 8>Yes, I have, And I usually go with the wife.

0:08:47.520 --> 0:08:50.600
<v Speaker 6>Side just and kind of ease the husband to the

0:08:50.640 --> 0:08:53.320
<v Speaker 6>wife side so he don't get in too much trouble

0:08:53.360 --> 0:08:54.680

<v Speaker 1>The sugar daddy. What's up, Suzanne, I.

0:09:52.320 --> 0:09:55.880
<v Speaker 8>Good morning, Good morning. My husband and I recently last week,

0:09:55.920 --> 0:09:59.720
<v Speaker 8>we're out having a glass of wine and we did

0:09:59.760 --> 0:10:04.080
<v Speaker 8>get a little snit at the bar quietly, and I

0:10:04.280 --> 0:10:06.240
<v Speaker 8>was asking him to take it home with me and

0:10:06.320 --> 0:10:08.679
<v Speaker 8>deal with it there. And next thing I know, our

0:10:08.720 --> 0:10:13.400
<v Speaker 8>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

0:10:15.800 --> 0:10:16.520
<v Speaker 8>you my new puppy.

0:10:17.240 --> 0:10:19.600
<v Speaker 1>What and he had a puppy with him.

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

0:10:22.800 --> 0:10:23.640
<v Speaker 1>Oh, and she.

0:10:23.679 --> 0:10:26.280
<v Speaker 8>Said in case you're in said, in case you're having

0:10:26.320 --> 0:10:28.400
<v Speaker 8>an argument, let me show you my new puppy.

0:10:28.760 --> 0:10:31.760
<v Speaker 1>And what did it do? Did it make you guys happy?

0:10:31.880 --> 0:10:33.240
<v Speaker 1>Or did you guys just know?

0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:37.360
<v Speaker 8>I stared at her, like, are you insane? That?

0:10:37.840 --> 0:10:40.120
<v Speaker 1>Wow? What town do you live in? What town?

0:10:40.240 --> 0:10:42.959
<v Speaker 8>Is this the salt Colorado?

0:10:43.440 --> 0:10:48.920
<v Speaker 1>Okay? Colorado? Wow? That's wild they saw Colorado. That's why

0:10:48.800 --> 0:10:50.800
<v Speaker 1>I just wanted to confuse the situation.

0:10:51.040 --> 0:10:54.640
<v Speaker 2>But she knew even though you thought you were quietly arguing, Suzanne,

0:10:54.840 --> 0:10:56.480
<v Speaker 2>she knew that there was something going on in their

0:10:56.520 --> 0:10:57.640
<v Speaker 2>attention between the two of you.

0:10:58.400 --> 0:11:00.880
<v Speaker 8>Oh, I give it to her. Yeah for sure, Yeah

0:11:01.640 --> 0:11:04.319
<v Speaker 8>it could have been obvious. I'm not not disagreeing.

0:11:04.559 --> 0:11:08.600
<v Speaker 2>My favorite is to go and other couples are arguing

0:11:08.679 --> 0:11:10.600
<v Speaker 2>because I think what it ends up happening is that

0:11:10.679 --> 0:11:13.520
<v Speaker 2>it brings Chelsea and I closer together because you start

0:11:13.559 --> 0:11:15.640
<v Speaker 2>seeing other couples like that where they look like they

0:11:15.640 --> 0:11:18.040
<v Speaker 2>don't even talk to each other, and I look and

0:11:18.080 --> 0:11:20.160
<v Speaker 2>I go, well, at least we got a better relationship

0:11:20.160 --> 0:11:21.800
<v Speaker 2>than they right now, you know what I mean.

0:11:23.240 --> 0:11:27.079
<v Speaker 8>Honestly, I yes have commented on that. For sure, we

0:11:27.080 --> 0:11:28.480
<v Speaker 8>were that other couple that night.

0:11:28.600 --> 0:11:30.959
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, thank you for the call. I appreciate it, Susan.

0:11:32.679 --> 0:11:37.600
<v Speaker 8>Time I know I have called. I've been lucky enough

0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:40.880
<v Speaker 8>to call many times, and I enjoy you all every morning.

0:11:40.960 --> 0:11:43.360
<v Speaker 1>We love you, Thank you, thank you.

0:11:43.920 --> 0:11:45.199
