Speaker 1: All right, it is Mojo in the morning. Somebody was
Speaker 1: impersonating Zach's parents.
Speaker 2: What's the story?
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, yes, this is the reaction that I had
Speaker 3: as well. So a friend of mine, who do you
Speaker 3: guys all know my little buddy from Miracle League Robbie Right,
Speaker 3: he is the best of the best. So his dad
Speaker 3: texts me the other day and he was at like
Speaker 3: some sort of event and he was sitting at a
Speaker 3: table with Zach or Zach's parents, and he texts me, oh,
Speaker 3: I'm at this, you know, whatever the event was, and
Speaker 3: I'm sitting with zax mom and dad. And I said, well,
Speaker 3: that can't be because Zach's mom passed away and his
Speaker 3: dad has not been a part of his life since
Speaker 3: he was little. Am I getting that that part of
Speaker 3: the story right with your dad?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, Mojell is not your dad.
Speaker 3: So I'm like, Zach's parents are not around. So I
Speaker 3: text him this and he's like, nope, they are. They
Speaker 3: are saying they are Zach's parents, they raised him, blah
Speaker 3: blah blah, and I'm like, this is this story is
Speaker 3: not checking out. Like I've known Zach for a long time,
Speaker 3: I know the situation with his parents. I'm like, I
Speaker 3: don't know who these people are, but they're definitely not
Speaker 3: Zach's So.
Speaker 1: They're at this whatever thing, sitting at a table with
Speaker 1: my buddy, right, you aren't answering back that is they're not.
Speaker 3: His parents, Like, I don't know who these people.
Speaker 2: The people are scammed. So he's like, oh, wait.
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm gonna now they're saying, well, they adopted him
Speaker 3: when he was little or something like that.
Speaker 2: My god.
Speaker 3: So I text back, I'm like, Nope, this is still
Speaker 3: not checking out. Zach's sister ended up raising him after
Speaker 3: his mom passed away. So I finally text Zach and
Speaker 3: I said, Zach, a man and a woman at this
Speaker 3: event are pretending to be your parents and they're telling
Speaker 3: people that, and I am so freaked out by this.
Speaker 3: I'm like, this is really creepy.
Speaker 2: And what does your me?
Speaker 5: I honestly can't remember, but I think, oh, my god.
Speaker 5: I was just like, oh, I'm pretty sure. I put
Speaker 5: l l no, like that's my aunt, like your aunt,
Speaker 5: your uncle? Yeah, my aunt, my uncle? People yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: they're real.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: So they took me in for like a good half
Speaker 5: a year a year, and that's uh my cousin who
Speaker 5: is five days younger than me. So we went to
Speaker 5: the same high school, and they were like, let's take
Speaker 5: him in. We'll get him settled in Nova ironically, and uh, yeah,
Speaker 5: how did Zach come up to Robbie school? Robbie's my boy, so.
Speaker 2: Robbie's a celebrity.
Speaker 1: Robbie went to high school, so they knew they knew
Speaker 1: that you knew Robbie and that's why they said that
Speaker 1: to him. Okay, because I was wondering, I am I going,
Speaker 1: how did Zach come up in this whole situation?
Speaker 2: So I don't know. I've never had someone impersonate my aunt.
Speaker 2: I would consider.
Speaker 6: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I feel like I would just say who I am?
Speaker 2: Did they actually adopt you? Yeah?
Speaker 5: For one point, and then my sister saw My sister
Speaker 5: lived in Georgia at the time, and then while she
Speaker 5: was in Georgia, my mom passed away and she had
Speaker 5: to like finish up her job and move out. So
Speaker 5: during that period of time, I lived with my aunt
Speaker 5: and my aunt took me in, which is kind.
Speaker 3: Of cool until this happened, and I was just so
Speaker 3: freaked out by the whole thing.
Speaker 2: I want to hear something funny about the whole situation.
Speaker 5: Sure, Okay, So my aunt lives on this road, and
Speaker 5: while my sister was moving into Novae, she decided to
Speaker 5: buy a house three doors down, So she lives three
Speaker 5: doors down next to my aunt.
Speaker 1: So she she did not know that your aunt was
Speaker 1: there or they knew, but she.
Speaker 2: Was like this, this is for sale. Let's just live
Speaker 2: next to each other. So I'm not mad at that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, there were days where, like after school, I've just
Speaker 5: walked down and hang out with.
Speaker 7: The which is great.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I always like to when people will randomly call
Speaker 1: and go, hey, I'm hanging out with your brother, and
Speaker 1: I'm like where, and they're like Clinton Township, Like my
Speaker 1: brother lives.
Speaker 2: One in next.
Speaker 1: And I'll say to them, I'll say, well, you know,
Speaker 1: my brother doesn't live here or whatever, and it turns
Speaker 1: out that it's like a friend of the brother, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like it's like my brother's friend
Speaker 1: that lives there, and it's like they only hear the
Speaker 1: one thing. But I have had like family members over
Speaker 1: the years that I've been doing this radio show, I've
Speaker 1: had or not family members. I've had listeners say that
Speaker 1: they know my family members and they it's nobody.
Speaker 2: That's related to me.
Speaker 3: A few years ago, there was a girl who was
Speaker 3: telling people that she was my sister.
Speaker 2: Oh, she was not my sister. Why was she doing it?
Speaker 3: I have no idea, but I had so many people
Speaker 3: reach out and say, oh, I met your sister here.
Speaker 3: I'm like, I don't even have a sister with that name.
Speaker 2: It was weird a situation. Yeah, whoa.
Speaker 1: I always wonder sometimes when you hear those stories and
Speaker 1: not in your specific case. Although I don't know Tim
Speaker 1: Murphy could have been getting himself around, but I always
Speaker 1: wonder when you hear those things going I'm your sister,
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden it turns out.
Speaker 8: To you true.
Speaker 2: Low key.
Speaker 4: I would not be surprised if I had a brother
Speaker 4: or a sister in Jamaica. I wouldn't be so said
Speaker 4: this before my dad, you know, the tamer version of
Speaker 4: my dad. Well, my dad was younger. He was a
Speaker 4: very very wild man. So I hear it, and he
Speaker 4: was in Jamaica. My dad goes to Jamaica two, if
Speaker 4: not three times a year, and he's been doing this
Speaker 4: since like the eighties. Wowow, I wouldn't be surprised at all. Wow,
Speaker 4: that's amazing.
Speaker 3: You gotta do it. I am not for those DNA
Speaker 3: tests because I'm still I'm a conspiracy theorist when it
Speaker 3: comes to what they do with your DNA, but I
Speaker 3: would be so curious.
Speaker 4: I don't want to know. I don't want to know
Speaker 4: if I got an extra siblings. I feel like not
Speaker 4: that way.
Speaker 1: I had a radio friend, actually, Tony and I have
Speaker 1: a radio friend, both of us, that did one of
Speaker 1: those DNA tests, only to find out that he had sisters.
Speaker 1: That lit two sisters that lived down the street and
Speaker 1: then down.
Speaker 2: The street on the street from where he lives, because well,
Speaker 2: you could be dating them.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: And then you guys know my dad's story too. I've
Speaker 1: told you that story fresh. Don't you remember this picture
Speaker 1: I showed you of my dad's my dad's supposed to children.
Speaker 4: Give me the story again though, all right, So my
Speaker 4: brother got a Facebook friend. My dad's got a very
Speaker 4: distinctive name, and it's he's from Cuba, and it's a
Speaker 4: Spanish name, and that's our last name. And my brother
Speaker 4: Bill started looking up people with the same last name.
Speaker 4: So he looked up all these people with the same
Speaker 4: last name, only to find this woman that was living
Speaker 4: in Miami with my same exact name that he contacted
Speaker 4: and he started talking to and then we did the
Speaker 4: math and we figured out that my dad. I told you, guys,
Speaker 4: this was married before my mom, and they kept that
Speaker 4: secret from us. I'm gonna see if I have the
Speaker 4: picture in here. I might have the I might have
Speaker 4: the pictures inside the thing.
Speaker 3: I remember you showed me the photo and she could
Speaker 3: a million percent be a sibling.
Speaker 2: Wait for she looks just like you, looks just like you, guys.
Speaker 2: Get a test done.
Speaker 1: Uh well, no, we've talked to her and we were like, uh,
Speaker 1: we said to her, you know, have you know about
Speaker 1: her father? And she goes my father left and it
Speaker 1: was the exact same year that my dad came over
Speaker 1: from Cuba.
Speaker 2: Listen my father.
Speaker 1: And then when you look at the picture, I can't
Speaker 1: find the picture right now, but I know I've shown
Speaker 1: it to you guys.
Speaker 2: The woman and all of us have the same nose, really,
Speaker 2: and it's like, it's.
Speaker 5: You, guys.
Speaker 2: And the funny thing is nobody in my family.
Speaker 1: So nobody in the family is excited about this except
Speaker 1: for me and my brother Bill, who found this thing out.
Speaker 1: Everybody else is kind of like. Actually, Tracy is kind
Speaker 1: of excited too, But my older siblings are literally freaked out.
Speaker 2: They don't like the idea of this whole thing. You
Speaker 2: and b have to go to Miami and her mouth.
Speaker 1: Yeah, or steal some hair, just like find she know
Speaker 1: she looks like she looks if you saw my dad
Speaker 1: and her might be cause I looked more like my

Speaker 1: I told Bill, Bill, who found this? Guys, I'm going
Speaker 1: to walk up to the door and go, sister, just
