Speaker 1 (00:00):
Joe Show is live on ninety three three FLZ. And
it may be cold in Tampa Bay, but let me
tell you something. We had to travel up to Detroit
for work. So we're broadcasting in the iHeart Detroit Studios
right now.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
And it's a lot older.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
So my fiance, she works in downtown Tampa. She'd sent
me a picture. She's in her office building and they're
all wearing coats. Still listen. It's gonna snow where we
are in ten minutes, believe it or not. We'll take
a picture. If you've never seen snow, I'll take a
picture and send it to you. We're here for iHeartRadio's
jingle Ball. We've talked about it a lot the last
(00:38):
couple of days. So if you're already annoyed with me,
you can send me a DM and say, shut up
about it. I don't want to hear it anymore. But
I got another story that I want to tell with it.
Love EJ. It's like listening to EJ every night, so
EJ is here as well. And we were talking about
the clothes we were going to wear tonight for the
(00:59):
event and all of it that, and you know EJ's
on every radio station for iHeart. So he travels around
the whole entire country in December and does all these shows.
And with that, listen, at the end of the day,
you do kind of need to dress nice. Our company
takes a ton of pictures. They post it on the
company page, which has millions of followers. So you do
(01:19):
you get a little vain and not in the negative sense.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
You just you all look your best.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
You gotta look your best. And EJ told me that
he will buy the clothes, and he purposely buys clothes
that are made to be returned. And what that is
is it's the clothes that have tags on the inside,
not the outside. So he leaves the tags on and
(01:44):
he'll return him after every show. Eight hundred and four
oh nine ninety three ninety three.
Speaker 4 (01:49):
Do you do that?
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Are you a serial return? Is that something that you
are doing when you go to maybe work events, or
maybe you just do it in your normal life. Maybe
you got a birthday over the weekend, so you want to,
you know, look all nice for that, but then you
return the clothes.
Speaker 4 (02:10):
Maybe you want to go all out for Gasparilla next month,
and you're like, it's well price you i'mna have to
return a hat and the jacket.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
But that to me is nuts because, like especially Gasparilla,
I wear a pirate outfit every year. It's the same
pirate outfit. And the beauty of a pirate outfit is
is that it can get messed up. You can spill
on it, you can stain it, you can do all
because you're a pirate. So it almost adds more character
to it. If I'm looking to return my jacket or
(02:37):
I'm looking to return my coat or a hat, how
do I even have fun at Gasparilla? I'm gonna spill
on it.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
Oh, some people really just want to go for the
looks and the pictures.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
I'm saying, though, oh you can't. I mean, then there's
no fun. Yeah, I kind of agree with Joe. And
also it's Gasparilla.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
I'm willing to bet that there's maybe one single human
being that's just showing up to take a picture.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Everyone else we're having fun. It's a national holiday.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
True, But ej is the reason why I I mean,
you do the same thing. I washed my clothes before
I wear them, simply because I mean, you're going to events.
You're probably going to birthday parties, social events and You're
wearing these clothes and bringing them back, but you're sweating
in them, your body fluids are getting on them.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
So I did this with a pair of pants. One
I did this with a pair of pants.
Speaker 5 (03:27):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Or it was actually at our coworker Nick Wise's wedding. Uh.
I wore pants and then I put them back on
Amazon and kept the tag on in the inside of them.
But what I didn't realize is that you really do
screw over like small businesses when you do this on Amazon,
because yeah, I think, so go grab her and right
after you explain your Amazon. So the reason why uh,
(03:50):
it screws over like small businesses because there's certain products
where people like they do running a business out on
through Amazon. So one, they're not like these big corerations
who if you return something, the big corporation can kind
of eat the cost. But if I'm buying two hundred
and three hundred dollars worth of clothing and that's supporting
a small business that just happens to be on Amazon,
(04:11):
if you return it worn and used, they can't resell
that and make any money off it. They're out the
three hundred dollars that they would more likely profit off
of and said, all right.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
So Bianca is walking in which you can listen to
Bianca on my dad's radio show Mojo in the morning. Bianca,
we're talking about how ej is returning his clothes after
jingle ball.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Oh and I've heard that you do this.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Oh my gosh, I do this all the time. And
actually now that you come in here and I'm looking
at you, happy birthday twenty.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Three today, did you get a birthday outfit?
Speaker 4 (04:46):
Or yes?
Speaker 6 (04:47):
You never turning it right out?
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Serio, you have no shame.
Speaker 7 (04:50):
No, I live off Amazon return the thirty day return policy.
I actually bought a shirt to go to the Detripissans
game last week.
Speaker 6 (04:56):
I asked him what the return policy is? Seven days.
I'm returning it after showed it.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Hitting me.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Yeah, just saying something about Amazon and small businesses.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
So you screw over small businesses because of this. Think
about all the like mom and pop stores that are
on Amazon. Right, Like, say you buy clothes from them,
you wear it right, and then Bianca returns it. Now
they're out all that money that they thought they were
gonna make because you were got out sweaty in it
and because you not returned it.
Speaker 7 (05:19):
She's like whooped you do well, I'm considering Amazon a
big corporation.
Speaker 6 (05:23):
I don't think.
Speaker 7 (05:23):
What's that guy's name who owns it?
Speaker 6 (05:30):
He does not care about my twenty dollars return policy.
Speaker 7 (05:32):
Honestly, sometimes I return things and then I don't know
how to return it.
Speaker 6 (05:35):
They just pay me back. Are you serious?
Speaker 7 (05:38):
Every year for jingle Ball? By the way, I returned
my outfits. So i wear a really cute outfit and
I'm returning it. Same thing with my offan.
Speaker 6 (05:44):
And weren't today.
Speaker 7 (05:45):
I'm really a really cute outfit and I'm returning it
is really cute, and I'm.
Speaker 6 (05:48):
Returning it because I'm never gonna wear it again.
Speaker 7 (05:50):
It's so pointless to keep an outfit or keep clothes
that you're only gonna wear once.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
I I mean, that's do you agree?
Speaker 6 (05:56):
I know, don't agree.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
My closet is filled with things for jingle Ball because yeah,
I kind of I kind.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Of, yeah, kind of dressed.
Speaker 7 (06:04):
Everything, everything I wore for your dad's Hall of Fame event,
everything I wore for Halloween every year, and that's always
gets returned.
Speaker 6 (06:11):
I'm never closet empty. Well, no, it's just basic.
Speaker 7 (06:14):
I actually wear the same clothes like every day because
I have no clothes more cartoon characters.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Is your name? Mar mar.
Speaker 5 (06:24):
A?
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Hi, mar.
Speaker 7 (06:27):
A.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Life is fantastic. When I get to talk to you.
You're on with biance. Say happy birthday to Bianca real quick?
Can you say happy birthday to Bianca?
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Happy birthday?
Speaker 6 (06:38):
I appreciate you man.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Do you do you do that?
Speaker 6 (06:41):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (06:42):
Do you return these clothes?
Speaker 5 (06:44):
So there have been sometimes where I pack sixteen different
outfits and then I hate them. So then I run
the target real quick, I'll get that outfit and at
the end I end up returning it. Yeah, but I
always feel terrible because it's like I just wore this
outfit and not someone else has to wear it after
I work.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
I don't know sweat, like my butt is sweating right now.
Speaker 7 (07:06):
No, honestly, it doesn't exactly. Listen, it doesn't matter. And honestly,
probably close you by probably have been.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
Warm before we watched them, before we put them on.
Speaker 6 (07:15):
I don't ever wash. I mean you do because you're turning.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Thank you mar April April. You you have someone that's
exactly like Bianca. They take advantage of the Amazon returns.
Speaker 8 (07:30):
Yes, so anything that they may have that breaks, they'll
go on Amazon, find the exact same ATTOMN and then
just turn the broken autumn or something that doesn't work,
and they'll send it back and they get their money back.
Speaker 7 (07:47):
Sometimes with skincare. If I run out of like my
face moisturizer, I'll buy any one on Amazon. Return the
old face moisturizer that's empty.
Speaker 6 (07:53):
It's crazy.
