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. What's going on?
Speaker 2 (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.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
It turned out to be fabulous, by the way.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
And we went to this 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 3 (00:41):
That was the plan going in. So we get to the.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
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? And we're both like, oh, yeah, of course
you don't even have to ask me that question. Of
course my 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 1 (01:05):
Awesome.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
He orders the bottle of wine.
Speaker 2 (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 2 (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 paying for.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
This dinner anymore. The plan has changed.
Speaker 2 (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 know this, this this
ain't happened anymore. And then the waiter comes back to
take our our dinner order, and in my head I'm like, okay,
(02:07):
I'm literally sweating overactive right armpit and full of fact air,
and mentally I'm trying to add up what people are
ordering because I'm like, Okay.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
Like maybe somehow I.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
We're like, we're going to make this work. I'll just
put it on my American Express whatever. We really want
to treat them.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Well.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Turns out, over the course of dinner and this is
still going on, that this this bottle and.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
The wine was great.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Wine tastes it tastes like like like.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Yeah, like heaven on my lips.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
But also I'm still so.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
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 3 (02:48):
And turns out that.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
He said it tastes like an eight hundreds of wine.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
It was very normally. So we ended up paying for
the dinner. But you guys, I was.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Panicking, Oh my god, I would be.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Too, 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 3 (03:28):
To but they didn't listen, but we knew that.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
We were going to pay. So's okay, so very generous couple.
So here's my question. 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 in an expensive way. I'm talking
about in an inexpensive way, like I find myself if
(03:51):
I go to a steak place and somebody else says
I'm ordering, I'm like, I don't have a chicken, you
know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
I'm just going to get an appetizer. Hungry.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
I don't want to come across like I'm, you know,
mooching off of them or something.
Speaker 5 (04:03):
You know, I ain't gonna lie, So 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.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
You would.
Speaker 5 (04:16):
But I will say this though, when I went to
chop House with you, George, and then that one time
I said that I want I want.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
The best steak and take the right side of the menu.
I want that steak. I want the new the one
at the top. Well, if you know the company is paying, yeah,
it's a person exactly in the case that keV is
talking about. It was George from six line myself that
the bill, Mojo. I paid that bill. Yeah, best I've
(04:45):
ever had my life worth everything. By the way, just
so you know this, you know he was he was vegetarian,
or he was wasian, bet he was pesketarian beforehand. And
then all of a sudden, all I have to do
is say, hey, I'm paying the bill today. And Kevin's
like me what else in front of me? 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
(05:06):
question eight four four six 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 that 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 with uh,
you know you were are sitting there going, I don't
(05:28):
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, exactly Bob Pittman. R I'm like, I'm like,
(05:48):
this is you know, come on, what's up, Rachel? Hi,
what's happening?
Speaker 6 (05:53):
Hi?
Speaker 7 (05:54):
I was just thinking, like keV would get the top
surloin Tomahawksteaks all.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
The he would call Josiah and see if you can
bring him on for a son.
Speaker 5 (06:08):
I don't even like truffle, He'll have it.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Yeah, Rachel, you would you order differently though, if you
knew that friends of yours were paying for the bill?
Speaker 8 (06:17):
Yes, I would absolutely, yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Because that's 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 a call,
you know what I mean. Even though you don't really
necessarily want it. But what's up? Jerry? How you doing?
Speaker 8 (06:38):
He's you guys, what's up?
Speaker 1 (06:40):
And Jerry, what's happening?
Speaker 6 (06:42):
Man?
Speaker 8 (06:43):
Last year I had my daughter and lose up the
park and you know, I'm Stingle 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 pound pounds, soaking wet. She got
the biggest states what two sides? She ordered, four extra sides,
four appetizers. Say, I said, you could have just invited
(07:06):
your kids.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
Did she eat all of it or did she bring
it home with her?
Speaker 8 (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 saw 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 5 (07:25):
I'm like, I'm hungry. I want to eat something good
and you got to eat all that food there. Don't
take something. Don't do that.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
What's going on, Angela? What's happening?
Speaker 6 (07:34):
Hi?
Speaker 7 (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.
Speaker 8 (07:44):
Well, and we all got steaks, and her boyfriend.
Speaker 9 (07:47):
Ordered one of the most expensive steaks, like even more
than my husband.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
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. Is he a good kid?
Do you like him?
Speaker 3 (08:07):
He's really sweet, He really seems to care about my daughter.
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. So in this situation, do you.
Speaker 5 (08:25):
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. Hey, what's up, Kira.
Speaker 8 (08:37):
Hey Mojo, what's going on?
Speaker 3 (08:39):
Higer morning?
Speaker 6 (08:42):
I was calling to say that if someone lets you
know that they're going to pay for the bill, I
do try to order at a little bit on the
sheeper 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 that thinks that I'm loosing off of
them or like using them to get something more expensive.
(09:06):
Because I eat like 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 impressinger. Honestly, come up, maybe come us across
a little at douche here, what's up, Molly?
Speaker 8 (09:35):
Hi?
Speaker 3 (09:36):
Hime up?
Speaker 7 (09:36):
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.
Speaker 8 (09:50):
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
then say hey, just put them on both cards, or
do you say you get those? I get those? You know,
stuff like that.
Speaker 10 (10:07):
I actually had to have a date.
Speaker 7 (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 their advertizers.
Speaker 10 (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.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
Like this call that's fair.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
And by the 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 4 (10:44):
I don't offer to pay, so I'll see what they ordered.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
No, you know what, that's actually not a bad idea.
You kind of get to see you kind of get
an idea. Have you ever been out on a date
with a girl and she ordered a big, old expensive thing?
Speaker 8 (10:59):
Oh? Yeah, wife, every time we go off for her,
I got.
Speaker 4 (11:04):
I got a cousin he uh, him and his wife
came down. We're gonna go to Nancy Steakhouse. And I
told my wife. I was like, yeah, we'll pay for him.
We get to Mancy Steakhouse. You know there they're teeth
of steaks, like a fifty dollars steak.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
You know, we poor.
Speaker 8 (11:21):
I thought that's what we was all getting.
Speaker 4 (11:23):
And he turns around stance one hundred and twenty dollars
on himself. I looked at my wife, said, I ain't
paying for.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Joe. What's up? How you doing good?
Speaker 8 (11:36):
How are you good?
Speaker 1 (11:37):
You took a girl out? What were you guys eating?
Speaker 9 (11:40):
I took her down to Prime and Proper and we
were on the David's first date and I, you know,
of course didn't say order what you want, but it
was implied, and she just went right to the filette
mgnine she ordered instead of the flame, and.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
She called it. She called it the stop.
Speaker 8 (12:07):
She really did.
Speaker 9 (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 leftowars home and order more for like
whoever they're taking home.
Speaker 6 (12:23):
That's no joke.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
It's a great restaurant, but that's very expensive. Is the
best I've heard all day?
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Hold On wants to say something to Kevin. What's that snita?
Speaker 6 (12:34):
Kevin, bro how you go from being a pescatarian and
deep daving into a space?
Speaker 1 (12:40):
Listen, I worked my way up to it.
Speaker 5 (12:42):
He's in ballasting a little bit, but the time frame
wasn't that long.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Kevin likes to be as atarian.
Speaker 8 (12:51):
Yeah, as atarian. I can't even imagine trying to eat
the stake.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
And look, start with a few wings, work your way
up to a burger. Then you know you'll be for
letting me know you
