WEBVTT - Weekend Jail  

0:00:00.040 --> 0:00:02.480
<v Speaker 1>Mojoe in the morning. So yesterday I was out and

0:00:02.520 --> 0:00:05.200
<v Speaker 1>I ended up meeting a listener. Guy was a fan

0:00:05.240 --> 0:00:08.039
<v Speaker 1>of the show, which was cool, and we were having

0:00:08.080 --> 0:00:10.559
<v Speaker 1>a conversation and he said that he had seen that

0:00:10.720 --> 0:00:14.360
<v Speaker 1>I was away last weekend and I was telling him

0:00:14.360 --> 0:00:15.960
<v Speaker 1>about the thing that I did with my son. But

0:00:16.400 --> 0:00:18.880
<v Speaker 1>long story short, I said to him, I go, well, yeah,

0:00:18.880 --> 0:00:20.480
<v Speaker 1>I feel bad we're talking about my weekend. How was

0:00:20.520 --> 0:00:22.360
<v Speaker 1>your last weekend? And he goes, you don't want to

0:00:22.360 --> 0:00:24.720
<v Speaker 1>talk about it? And I said, why is that? And

0:00:24.800 --> 0:00:31.360
<v Speaker 1>he said that he was in weekend jail. He has

0:00:32.040 --> 0:00:34.519
<v Speaker 1>on Fridays when he gets off from work, he has

0:00:34.600 --> 0:00:40.000
<v Speaker 1>till six pm to check himself in, and Friday night,

0:00:40.400 --> 0:00:45.320
<v Speaker 1>Saturday night, Sunday until Monday morning he has to actually

0:00:45.800 --> 0:00:48.640
<v Speaker 1>go into jail. And I said, I didn't even know

0:00:48.640 --> 0:00:51.159
<v Speaker 1>that that was the thing. I've known people that have

0:00:51.240 --> 0:00:55.440
<v Speaker 1>to like go and blow into a device like at

0:00:55.480 --> 0:00:58.040
<v Speaker 1>the courts or whatever like that. But he got himself

0:00:58.040 --> 0:01:00.680
<v Speaker 1>into a little bit of trouble for drinking. And he said, no,

0:01:00.720 --> 0:01:02.840
<v Speaker 1>it's more common than you think. I've gotten some bad,

0:01:02.960 --> 0:01:06.560
<v Speaker 1>you know stuff over time. And he uses this analogy,

0:01:06.600 --> 0:01:09.400
<v Speaker 1>which was good, and by the way real quick before

0:01:09.400 --> 0:01:11.720
<v Speaker 1>I tell you his analogy, are there any other listeners

0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:14.080
<v Speaker 1>that are in weekend jail? I kind of like to

0:01:14.120 --> 0:01:16.920
<v Speaker 1>hear your guys stories, like I want to hear what

0:01:17.080 --> 0:01:19.240
<v Speaker 1>it is that you, you know, may have gotten yourself

0:01:19.240 --> 0:01:21.840
<v Speaker 1>into that got you into weekend jail. And I bet

0:01:21.880 --> 0:01:23.840
<v Speaker 1>you that we would probably guess that a lot of

0:01:23.840 --> 0:01:25.760
<v Speaker 1>them have to deal with some kind of drugs or something.

0:01:25.880 --> 0:01:29.000
<v Speaker 2>I would assume because anything a lot of them as.

0:01:28.760 --> 0:01:32.080
<v Speaker 1>You think, so d uys Well eight four four Mojoe

0:01:32.120 --> 0:01:35.800
<v Speaker 1>Live or text nine five five zero zero if you've

0:01:35.800 --> 0:01:38.400
<v Speaker 1>ever been in weekend jail. And by the way, it's

0:01:38.440 --> 0:01:43.560
<v Speaker 1>not like going to the you know, I don't know,

0:01:43.640 --> 0:01:46.880
<v Speaker 1>the Higatt Regency or something like that. Weekend jail is

0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:49.440
<v Speaker 1>definitely not the comfort to that, although they do clean

0:01:49.480 --> 0:01:52.280
<v Speaker 1>their sheets more than I found out most hotels play.

0:01:52.360 --> 0:01:55.240
<v Speaker 1>He said to me as an analogy, he said, weekend

0:01:55.360 --> 0:01:59.120
<v Speaker 1>jail is like Saturday detention. You that I've been to,

0:01:59.360 --> 0:02:01.120
<v Speaker 1>do you remember when you were a kid and you

0:02:01.120 --> 0:02:05.320
<v Speaker 1>had Saturday detention a few times. Saturday detention was always

0:02:05.440 --> 0:02:08.720
<v Speaker 1>the worst because you had to wake up early on

0:02:08.720 --> 0:02:11.880
<v Speaker 1>a Saturday. Your dad or mom was pissed that they

0:02:11.880 --> 0:02:14.640
<v Speaker 1>had to drive you. And then the other thing that

0:02:14.639 --> 0:02:17.160
<v Speaker 1>they would get really upset about was they had to

0:02:17.160 --> 0:02:19.240
<v Speaker 1>come pick you up and you had to do the

0:02:19.280 --> 0:02:21.400
<v Speaker 1>clean up around the school. Yeah, you had to be

0:02:21.480 --> 0:02:23.960
<v Speaker 1>the person to like pick up trash, to put out.

0:02:23.880 --> 0:02:27.880
<v Speaker 2>The trash during attention, just your work. I never got detention.

0:02:28.080 --> 0:02:29.920
<v Speaker 2>Attention was never like a real thing, I feel like

0:02:29.919 --> 0:02:32.680
<v Speaker 2>in my school, but always always I used to get

0:02:32.720 --> 0:02:33.440
<v Speaker 2>Saturday attention.

0:02:33.680 --> 0:02:36.200
<v Speaker 1>Frequently asked me this some time, just sit in silence,

0:02:37.000 --> 0:02:38.280
<v Speaker 1>really like the breakfast club.

0:02:38.400 --> 0:02:41.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, literally just attention for a couple hours. Yeah, that

0:02:41.880 --> 0:02:44.720
<v Speaker 2>was cool. I loved that movie. What's going On? Sydney's

0:02:44.760 --> 0:02:45.160
<v Speaker 2>on with us?

0:02:45.240 --> 0:02:45.440
<v Speaker 1>Right now?

0:02:45.520 --> 0:02:49.480
<v Speaker 2>You're there, Sydney. I, Hey, what's going on?

0:02:50.560 --> 0:02:52.920
<v Speaker 3>So I am actually a correctional officer.

0:02:53.200 --> 0:02:56.799
<v Speaker 4>So we call these people weekenders weekenders?

0:02:57.400 --> 0:03:02.240
<v Speaker 1>So what gets you into weekend jay?

0:03:02.840 --> 0:03:05.400
<v Speaker 3>A lot of different things, but I think it depends

0:03:05.440 --> 0:03:07.680
<v Speaker 3>on what your job is. If you're not able to

0:03:07.840 --> 0:03:09.760
<v Speaker 3>like actually leave but like.

0:03:09.639 --> 0:03:10.280
<v Speaker 4>A d u y.

0:03:11.760 --> 0:03:16.000
<v Speaker 3>Or just like kind of like little petty things like jaywalking.

0:03:16.080 --> 0:03:17.560
<v Speaker 3>We had a girl there for jaywalking.

0:03:20.840 --> 0:03:21.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:03:21.760 --> 0:03:24.160
<v Speaker 3>I was like, no, they really wanted to get you.

0:03:25.160 --> 0:03:26.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's crazy.

0:03:26.200 --> 0:03:28.840
<v Speaker 1>Jaywalking would get you in trouble and what are the

0:03:28.880 --> 0:03:31.160
<v Speaker 1>accommodations like are they are they comfortable?

0:03:31.200 --> 0:03:33.040
<v Speaker 2>Do you get a pillow or what do you get?

0:03:33.400 --> 0:03:33.560
<v Speaker 5>Oh?

0:03:33.639 --> 0:03:36.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you get your paddle, Oh my goodness, your pillow,

0:03:36.760 --> 0:03:40.160
<v Speaker 3>your blanket. Usually we put them like in a separate

0:03:40.200 --> 0:03:42.360
<v Speaker 3>area because they're only there for like the two or

0:03:42.360 --> 0:03:45.080
<v Speaker 3>three days, so they usually don't get put in with

0:03:45.160 --> 0:03:47.640
<v Speaker 3>like the higher security people.

0:03:47.880 --> 0:03:49.320
<v Speaker 2>What happens if you don't check in?

0:03:50.440 --> 0:03:52.880
<v Speaker 3>If you're not, there's a warrant out for your arrest.

0:03:53.360 --> 0:03:53.920
<v Speaker 2>That's not good.

0:03:54.640 --> 0:03:56.640
<v Speaker 3>And we have a few people that come in that, like,

0:03:56.720 --> 0:03:58.360
<v Speaker 3>you know, you're not supposed to be drunk, and they

0:03:58.360 --> 0:04:01.840
<v Speaker 3>come in and they'll blow numbers or be tested for stuff,

0:04:01.880 --> 0:04:04.160
<v Speaker 3>and it's like, you know you do this every weekend.

0:04:04.560 --> 0:04:06.400
<v Speaker 2>Hey, Sydney, do you get hit on a lot of

0:04:06.440 --> 0:04:07.120
<v Speaker 2>times at weekend?

0:04:07.200 --> 0:04:07.320
<v Speaker 5>Joe?

0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:10.520
<v Speaker 3>Or Oh my goodness, I get I work both the

0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:16.479
<v Speaker 3>male and female floors, and every day everybody I see

0:04:16.480 --> 0:04:16.880
<v Speaker 3>the women.

0:04:17.600 --> 0:04:19.760
<v Speaker 2>What what's some of the stuff they say to you.

0:04:20.720 --> 0:04:22.840
<v Speaker 3>I had a guy tell me the other day He's like, Oh,

0:04:22.880 --> 0:04:25.000
<v Speaker 3>I like your hair, it's so pretty, And I said

0:04:25.040 --> 0:04:26.320
<v Speaker 3>things I grew it myself.

0:04:27.839 --> 0:04:29.719
<v Speaker 2>What did the ladies say the.

0:04:31.839 --> 0:04:35.160
<v Speaker 3>Usually they can tell when I wear makeups. It'll be like, oh,

0:04:35.200 --> 0:04:37.839
<v Speaker 3>your eyes look so beautiful today, or like, oh, you're

0:04:37.839 --> 0:04:40.920
<v Speaker 3>too pretty to be a CEO. It's like thank.

0:04:40.680 --> 0:04:46.279
<v Speaker 6>You men do.

0:04:48.160 --> 0:04:50.920
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god? All right, sat by Sydney. I gotta go.

0:04:51.320 --> 0:04:57.039
<v Speaker 2>This is crazy. Hold on a second, Joe, what's happening Joe?

0:04:58.440 --> 0:05:01.000
<v Speaker 7>Hey guys, good morning time, long time.

0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:02.960
<v Speaker 2>What's happening.

0:05:03.400 --> 0:05:03.640
<v Speaker 6>Hey.

0:05:04.120 --> 0:05:05.280
<v Speaker 7>So I've talked to you guys before.

0:05:05.320 --> 0:05:07.160
<v Speaker 2>I told you a little bit about my journey. I

0:05:07.240 --> 0:05:07.880
<v Speaker 2>was nineteen.

0:05:08.160 --> 0:05:10.480
<v Speaker 7>I went to Jack's County Jail for four months, and

0:05:10.520 --> 0:05:12.960
<v Speaker 7>then I went to prison for almost five years. And

0:05:13.120 --> 0:05:15.719
<v Speaker 7>not to lick at trouble sense, But when I was

0:05:15.760 --> 0:05:18.719
<v Speaker 7>first in county jail, there was this one older gentleman.

0:05:18.800 --> 0:05:22.360
<v Speaker 7>He had to be about sixty, and I noticed every

0:05:22.440 --> 0:05:25.240
<v Speaker 7>weekend he was coming in. So one day I went

0:05:25.279 --> 0:05:29.320
<v Speaker 7>and talked to him, and I forget what his name is.

0:05:29.360 --> 0:05:33.760
<v Speaker 7>He was some doctor and he just refused to pay

0:05:33.760 --> 0:05:34.839
<v Speaker 7>his wife's alimony.

0:05:34.920 --> 0:05:35.920
<v Speaker 2>So it's the funniest thing.

0:05:35.960 --> 0:05:38.440
<v Speaker 7>He's just like, I would rather go to jail every

0:05:38.480 --> 0:05:40.440
<v Speaker 7>weekend for the rest of my life than to pay

0:05:40.480 --> 0:05:41.000
<v Speaker 7>my ex.

0:05:43.240 --> 0:05:44.520
<v Speaker 5>That is funny.

0:05:45.120 --> 0:05:49.800
<v Speaker 2>That's funny. That is stubbornness at a level you can't

0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:53.080
<v Speaker 2>even describe. If you had to live with that wife,

0:05:54.520 --> 0:05:56.880
<v Speaker 2>I'd rather go to jail. What's going on, Travis? How

0:05:56.920 --> 0:05:58.719
<v Speaker 2>you doing? Hey? What's up?

0:05:58.800 --> 0:05:58.960
<v Speaker 6>Man?

0:05:59.120 --> 0:06:01.239
<v Speaker 2>How are you doing? We're doing good man. We're talking

0:06:01.279 --> 0:06:04.600
<v Speaker 2>about people who have been in weekend jail. Dude. I

0:06:04.920 --> 0:06:08.039
<v Speaker 2>just had to go through this. I got a DUI.

0:06:08.440 --> 0:06:11.080
<v Speaker 8>I was being dumb and drinking. Actually it's my fourth one,

0:06:11.160 --> 0:06:14.360
<v Speaker 8>so it's being really dumb. So I went in front

0:06:14.360 --> 0:06:16.640
<v Speaker 8>of the judge and that's like a prison sentence, Dude,

0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:18.760
<v Speaker 8>Like I've known people to go to prison for like

0:06:18.880 --> 0:06:20.280
<v Speaker 8>five just ten years for that.

0:06:20.440 --> 0:06:20.600
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:06:20.640 --> 0:06:22.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Kim Small's by the way, you watch out, She'll

0:06:22.880 --> 0:06:24.279
<v Speaker 1>put you in there in Oakland County.

0:06:25.360 --> 0:06:26.760
<v Speaker 2>So I ended up I was.

0:06:26.880 --> 0:06:28.640
<v Speaker 8>I had ended up changing my life and doing a

0:06:28.680 --> 0:06:30.440
<v Speaker 8>couple of things that the judge was kind of impressed with,

0:06:30.680 --> 0:06:32.960
<v Speaker 8>so he didn't want to put me in jail. Prison

0:06:34.279 --> 0:06:37.360
<v Speaker 8>and uh so he actually told me that I could

0:06:37.440 --> 0:06:39.960
<v Speaker 8>schedule my jail time that I had to do it

0:06:40.080 --> 0:06:42.960
<v Speaker 8>within like the two years probation that I had h

0:06:44.000 --> 0:06:46.080
<v Speaker 8>and I could like just tell him whenever I wanted

0:06:46.080 --> 0:06:46.920
<v Speaker 8>to come in, I'd.

0:06:46.839 --> 0:06:47.640
<v Speaker 5>Go in for the wheels.

0:06:47.680 --> 0:06:49.920
<v Speaker 2>So I just did the weekends like all in a row.

0:06:50.040 --> 0:06:52.400
<v Speaker 2>But wait, did you schedule it? I never heard you

0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:55.720
<v Speaker 2>like would you do it right away or did you

0:06:55.760 --> 0:06:56.720
<v Speaker 2>put it off for a little bit.

0:06:57.320 --> 0:07:00.839
<v Speaker 8>So I was on probation, so as long as I did,

0:07:01.000 --> 0:07:02.560
<v Speaker 8>I did it right away because I was like, man,

0:07:02.560 --> 0:07:05.719
<v Speaker 8>I'm getting this over with. But he said I could

0:07:05.800 --> 0:07:08.440
<v Speaker 8>like go into my probation officer and tell him what

0:07:08.640 --> 0:07:10.200
<v Speaker 8>weekends I wanted to go to jail.

0:07:11.320 --> 0:07:11.680
<v Speaker 6>And then.

0:07:14.600 --> 0:07:15.520
<v Speaker 2>It was crazy.

0:07:15.640 --> 0:07:18.240
<v Speaker 8>Man, Okay, so in the Skie and County, you don't

0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:19.800
<v Speaker 8>get to going to bed, you don't get to going

0:07:19.840 --> 0:07:22.000
<v Speaker 8>none of that. You're on like a concrete slab in

0:07:22.080 --> 0:07:22.760
<v Speaker 8>the holding cell.

0:07:22.920 --> 0:07:24.800
<v Speaker 2>So it was rowdy.

0:07:24.920 --> 0:07:27.440
<v Speaker 8>I mean every person that came in was either addicted

0:07:27.480 --> 0:07:30.040
<v Speaker 8>to drugs or drunk or so it wasn't really that

0:07:30.200 --> 0:07:30.640
<v Speaker 8>much fun.

0:07:31.520 --> 0:07:36.240
<v Speaker 1>Wow, Jans, Well, jail's not supposed to be comfortable. So

0:07:36.520 --> 0:07:39.120
<v Speaker 1>hold on a second, Stephanie. You spend time in a weekend.

0:07:38.880 --> 0:07:41.120
<v Speaker 2>Jail, is that right? I did?

0:07:41.360 --> 0:07:43.400
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Yeah, he's spent a couple of weekends when I

0:07:43.480 --> 0:07:44.040
<v Speaker 4>was eighteen.

0:07:45.520 --> 0:07:46.120
<v Speaker 2>What happened?

0:07:47.480 --> 0:07:52.720
<v Speaker 4>Oh I got a couple of ip's, I got caught drinking. Yeah,

0:07:53.160 --> 0:07:55.520
<v Speaker 4>Blue pretty high on the second one they put I

0:07:55.640 --> 0:07:58.360
<v Speaker 4>started my freshman year at Central with an alcoholic tether on.

0:07:59.440 --> 0:08:02.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I do have.

0:08:03.120 --> 0:08:05.200
<v Speaker 4>I have a little bit of a four years alcohol

0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:05.760
<v Speaker 4>free novel.

0:08:05.960 --> 0:08:11.440
<v Speaker 1>So I like to hear that, absolutely, Olivia, Wow, all

0:08:11.480 --> 0:08:16.280
<v Speaker 1>these women on weekend jail there, I know, I have two.

0:08:16.360 --> 0:08:22.000
<v Speaker 6>Actually, So I got in a car accident after a graduation,

0:08:22.680 --> 0:08:26.800
<v Speaker 6>and when they ran my information, apparently I had warrant,

0:08:27.000 --> 0:08:30.200
<v Speaker 6>but it was for something so silly. It was unpaid tickets.

0:08:30.600 --> 0:08:32.280
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, I went to weekend jail for that.

0:08:33.200 --> 0:08:37.400
<v Speaker 6>Yes I did, Yes, I did. And then the second

0:08:37.480 --> 0:08:40.800
<v Speaker 6>time was I cashed a bad chicks.

0:08:43.040 --> 0:08:50.679
<v Speaker 2>Yep, ye, so silly, both of those things. Yeahs.

0:08:50.880 --> 0:08:53.880
<v Speaker 1>But but they must have thought that she was a

0:08:53.920 --> 0:08:57.040
<v Speaker 1>little shady and needed toickets.

0:08:57.080 --> 0:08:58.600
<v Speaker 2>You're getting in jail.

0:08:58.720 --> 0:09:01.719
<v Speaker 1>I always believe that we hear maybe that much of

0:09:01.760 --> 0:09:07.240
<v Speaker 1>the story. Sometimes I don't think that they just automatically

0:09:07.320 --> 0:09:12.880
<v Speaker 1>throw you in. All right, Dangelo, what's up.

0:09:14.440 --> 0:09:17.800

<v Speaker 5>We just have to drop my uncle off every Friday.

0:09:25.080 --> 0:09:27.520
