Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, Mojo In the morning, Shannon had kind of
(00:02):
an embarrassing moment happened to her when she went out
with another couple over the weekend.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
What's going on?
Speaker 3 (00:06):
So Wes and I went out to dinner with some
great friends of ours to a really nice restaurant that
I had never been to before, in fact, so I
wasn't quite sure what to expect in terms of the menu,
or the atmosphere or the prices. It turned out to
be fabulous, by the way. And we went to this
(00:28):
dinner with the intention that we were going to treat
this couple because they have been so generous to us
this year, so we wanted to, like, you know, slyly
pay the bill and have this be our treat.
Speaker 4 (00:41):
That was the plan going in.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
So we get to the restaurant, we sit down, everybody
starts talking. The waiter comes over to take a drink order,
and the guy that we're with asks Wes and I,
will you guys drink red wine?
Speaker 4 (00:55):
And we're both like, oh, yeah, of course you don't
even have to ask me that question. Of course my.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Answer is yes. So he proceeds to order. He's like, oh,
I have there's a great bottle of wine here. I
really want you guys to try it.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
Awesome. He orders the bottle of wine.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
We all start talking, and in the course of conversation,
I thought I hear I thought I heard him say too, Wes,
that the bottle of wine cost eight hundred dollars.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Oh my god, what kind of wine is this?
Speaker 3 (01:27):
My heart just about stopped, and I'm trying to get
Wes to stop talking and catch his eye, and he
won't stop talking. So I'm kicking him under the table,
like We're not paint for this dinner anymore.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
The plan has changed.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
We cannot afford a dinner that includes an eight hundred
dollars bottle of wine along with like the restaurant was
a pretty nice restaurant anyway, So I'm like trying to
like tap his leg and kick his shoe to get
his attention of like the you.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
Know this, this this ain't happened anymore.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
And then the waiter comes back to take our our
dinner order, and in my head I'm like, Okay, I'm
literally sweating overactive right armpit and full effectory air, and
mentally I'm trying to add up what people are ordering
because I'm like okay, like maybe somehow I We're like,
we're going to make this work.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
I'll just put it on my American Express whatever. We
really want to treat them.
Speaker 5 (02:25):
Well.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
Turns out, over the course of dinner and this is
still going on, that this this bottle and the wine
was great taste. It tastes like like like.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Yeah, like heaven on my legs. But also I'm still.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
So panicked that i can't even enjoy the dang wine
because I'm thinking, oh man, I'm really like we said
we were treating them whatever.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
And turns out that.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
He said it tastes like an eight hundred of wine.
It was very normally, So we ended up paying for
the dinner.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
But you guys, I was.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Panicking, Oh my god, I.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
Would be to because we had already said like, this
is our treat, you know, and we knew that they
were going to fight us on it, so we were
gonna have to slip our credit cards reader at some point,
but the word was already out there.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
So here's so here's a question for you. If you
are out with people and you are being treated like,
for instance, like you are, did you say to them, hey,
we're treating you guys, this is our treat or we tried.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
To but they didn't listen, but we knew that we
were going to.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Get It's okay.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
So very generous couple.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
So here's my question.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
I asked, if you go out with other people and
you are having they're paying the bill like it's their treat,
do you order differently? Because I find myself ordering something
I would never order. And I'm not talking about an
expensive way. I'm talking about in an inexpensive way, like
I find myself if I go to a steak place
and somebody else says I'm ordering, I'm like, I'll have
(03:54):
a chicken.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
I'm just going to get an appetizer. I'm not that hungry.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
I don't want to come across like I'm, you know,
mooching off of them or something.
Speaker 6 (04:03):
You know, I ain't gonna lie, I would say, nine
times out of ten, I meet you in the middle.
I'm not gonna get the most expensive thing. I'm gonna
get something I enjoy, but I'm also going to get
something that I would pay for for myself. You would,
but I will say it is though, when I went
to chop House with you, George, and then that one
time I said that I want I.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Want the best steak and take the right side of
the menu. I want that steak. I want the one
at the top.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
Well, if you know the company is paying.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Yeah, it's a person exactly in the case that Kep
is talking about. It was George from six line myself
that the Mojo paid that bill. Yeah, best I've ever
had my life worth everything. By the way, just so
you know this, you know he was he was vegetarian
or he was he bet he was pesketarian beforehand. And
(04:56):
then all of a sudden, all I have to do
is say, hey, I'm paying the bill today.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
And Kevin's like me, what else is in front of me?
Speaker 1 (05:01):
I said, I'm beg baby, So it's it's And by
the way, eight four four Mojo Live, I want to
ask this question eight four four sixty six five six
five four eight do you I want you to call
out the person that orders the really expensive thing if
you are the one that's like paying the bill or
you know they know you're paying the bill. And then
also I want to ask this question of do you
order differently if that's the case, like you know with
(05:23):
with uh, you know you are sitting there going. I
don't want to make Shannon and West pay some crazy
amount of money, you know what I mean, Like for
the thing now, if it is on the company's tab,
I do run it out. Like if I'm going out,
if I'm going out for dinner and Bobby Pittman is
paying for this thing, exactly Bob Pittman. R I'm like,
(05:48):
I'm like, this is you know, come on, what's up, Rachel?
Speaker 7 (05:51):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (05:51):
What's happening?
Speaker 8 (05:53):
Hi?
Speaker 5 (05:54):
I was just thinking like keV would get the top
surloin Tomahawks steaks, all the telling.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
All he would call Josiah and see if he can
bring him on for his son. I don't even like truffle,
He'll have it, yeah, Rachel? Do you would you order
differently though if you knew that friends of yours were
paying for the bill?
Speaker 9 (06:17):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (06:17):
I would absolutely, yeah, because that's.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
That's kind of the right thing to do, you know.
Like I find myself if I go to a Starbucks.
We talked about this yesterday, like who pays for it?
But if I find that if somebody else is paying
for the Starbucks, I'm like, I'll take it tall, you
know what I mean, even though you don't really necessarily
want it.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
But what's up? Jerry? How you doing? He me?
Speaker 9 (06:39):
You guys, what's up?
Speaker 2 (06:40):
And Jerry, what's happening?
Speaker 5 (06:42):
Man?
Speaker 9 (06:43):
Last year, I had my daughter and lives up the
park and you know, I'm single. And she was like, Dad,
you should ask her out. You know, he was sitting there.
So I did. I took her to Touch of Roadhouse.
I said, you can get what you want and she's like, okay,
and she's ninety five pounds, soaking wet. She got the
biggest States with two sides. She ordered four extra sides,
four appetizers. Said hey, I said, you could have just
(07:05):
invited your kids.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Did she eat all of it or did she bring
it home with her?
Speaker 9 (07:12):
She no, she took it home.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
She was going, if you're on a date with a guy,
if you're on a date with a guy, like you, don't.
I've always thought that every girl that I ever went
on a date with, even Chelsea when I first went
on the first date, she ordered a salad.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
I'm like, I'm hungry. I want to eat something good
and you gotta eat all that food there. Don't take something.
Don't do that. What's going on, Angela? What's happening?
Speaker 8 (07:34):
Hi?
Speaker 10 (07:35):
So this past weekend was family weekend at my daughter's college,
and I took her and her boyfriend out to dinner
at Texas Roadhouse as well, and we all got steaks,
and her boyfriend ordered one of the most expensive steaks,
like even more than my husband. And I was like, Oh, okay.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
That little bastard, that bat by the way, that's one
of those ones, Angela where your husband needs to take
that kid for a walk, if you know what I'm
talking about, Like he needs to walk that guy right
out of your daughter's life.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Is he a good kid? Do you like him?
Speaker 10 (08:07):
He's really sweet, He really seems to care about my daughter.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
That's that's the number one important rule.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
If that was my son, by the way, I beat
the crab out of him for that's that's crazy. You
can't ever order a more expensive meal than the person
that's paying for the meal.
Speaker 6 (08:23):
So this in this situation, do you order first or
do you allow the other person to order the person
that's quote unquote paying.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Honestly, I try to see what everybody's doing, Like I
try to, Yeah, I try to like get a feel
for everybody.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Hey, what's up, Kira, Hey, Mojo, what's going on?
Speaker 9 (08:39):
Higgs?
Speaker 4 (08:40):
Morning.
Speaker 8 (08:42):
I was calling to say that if someone lets me
know that they're going to pay for the bill, I
do try to order at a little bit on the
sheeaper side, but when it comes to like dating, like
first dates or whatnot, I choose to pay the bill
or at least offer to pay for mine, because I
don't want anybody to think that I'm loosing off of
them or like using them to get something more expensive.
Speaker 5 (09:06):
Because I eat like.
Speaker 8 (09:08):
How I want to eat, and I want you to
know this is how I eat on a regular basis.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Okay, Okay, that's good. Yeah, that's that's very respectable. I
also say this too, Kier And I don't know how
you feel about this, but I think you got to
have first date expectations. Don't take your first date to
a restaurant that you wouldn't always just go to, like
you're trying to blow it out of the water, thinking
that you're impressing her. Honestly, come up, maybe come us
across a little bit, douche here, what's up, Molly?
Speaker 7 (09:35):
Hi?
Speaker 5 (09:36):
Hime out job I went to? There was one time
I went to dinner with a couple of family members
that were very well off, and we ordered our regular
meals and they ordered probably like five or six very
expensive appetizers and then wanted to split it.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Oh that's an interesting one. When the other people that
you're out with order a whole bunch more than you order,
and you guys are going to split the tab. Do
you you split the tab right down the middle, or
say hey, just put them on both cards?
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Or do you say you get those? I get those?
You know, stuff like that.
Speaker 11 (10:07):
I actually had to have a date.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
Oh go ahead, sorry, they wanted to split, and they
said it at the very end, so we didn't even
know they said that they wanted to split all the advertisers.
Speaker 11 (10:19):
I had to have a conversation with my friends. So
I used to not drink, and they would always want
to buy bottles when we were out and we would
split the tab and I'm like, yeah, I don't drink,
ye all are buying bottles of liquor like this.
Speaker 4 (10:31):
Call that's fair.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
And by way, if you're a non drinker at the
table and somebody else is doing all the drinking, you
should definitely not split it down the middle. Pat, what
do you do if you are going to be the
one that's going to be putting money down on that bill.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
I don't offer to pay, so I'll see what they ordered. No,
you know what, that's actually not a bad idea. You
kind of get to see you kind of get an idea.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
Have you ever been out on a date with a
girl and she ordered a big, old expensive thing?
Speaker 8 (10:59):
Oh?
Speaker 9 (10:59):
Yeah, wife, every time we go off her.
Speaker 10 (11:04):
I got.
Speaker 9 (11:04):
I got a cousin he uh, him and his wife
came down.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
We're gonna go to Nancy Steakhouse.
Speaker 9 (11:11):
And I told my wife. I was like, yeah, we'll
pay for him.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
We get to Mancy Steakhouse.
Speaker 9 (11:16):
You know there there cheep of steaks, like a fifty
dollars steak.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
You know, we poor.
Speaker 9 (11:21):
I thought that's what we were all getting.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
And he turns around, stance one hundred and twenty dollars
on himself.
Speaker 9 (11:27):
I looked at my wife, said.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
I ain't paying for Joe. What's up? How you doing good?
How are you good? You took a girl out? What
were you guys eating?
Speaker 7 (11:40):
I took her down to Prime and Proper and we
were on David's first date.
Speaker 9 (11:46):
And I, you know, of course.
Speaker 7 (11:48):
Didn't say order what you want, but it was implied,
and she just went right to the filette mgnine.
Speaker 9 (11:56):
She orders instead of the filame and.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
She called it. She called it the.
Speaker 9 (12:06):
Stop.
Speaker 5 (12:07):
She really did.
Speaker 7 (12:08):
That's God's honest truth. And the other thing is can
we talk about how people when you take somebody out
and they take leftovers home and order more for like
whoever they're taking it home to.
Speaker 4 (12:23):
Joke it's a.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
