Speaker 1 (00:00):
Mojo in the morning show.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
So for those that don't know who Anna is, the
newest member of the show, She's the newest member of
the radio show.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
Here. She is going to be thirty, right, A right
to say that December.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
She's leaving her twenties, going into her thirties and growing
up in more ways than one. She has family, hair,
she grew up in the area. She lives downtown Detroit. Now,
you have told us stories about relationships with your family,
and we have heard a couple of times where you
(00:36):
and the fam sometimes don't always, you know, see eye
to eye on stuff. But I'm starting to see that
there's a little bit of a healing going on, which
I like. And one of the big ones is potentially
you may go up north with the family.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
This isn't potential. I am going really so to fill
everyone in on the backstory, I grew up in White Lake,
like Mojo said, a little bit different environment then I
currently live in downtown Detroit. And because of you know,
I don't know the exact reasons, whether I felt people
(01:10):
disapproved of some of the choices and the lifestyle I
was living in Detroit, or just the distance physically. I
have not been in contact with most of the people
that I grew up with my entire life. Recently, we
talked about my core group of friends, like my five
best friends that I grew up with in White Lake,
(01:33):
that I also feel distant from. While that group of us,
all of our families are friends. So every weekend, for
I want to say, the past twenty twenty five years,
not every weekend, a weekend, one weekend out of the
year for the past twenty five years, we all of
our families go up north to somebody's property and we say,
(01:53):
for the weekend, we do all the up north things
ATV shooting targets, stuff like that, and I love it,
Like I may live in Detroit, but I genuinely.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Love doing.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Yeah suck all right, So I am going up north
this weekend with all of them, and I'm super anxious
about it because I haven't been in contact with these people,
like in to an extent, like they know things about me,
but they really don't know a lot about me. And
(02:26):
now I'm openly talking about it on the air, like
I have a butt tattoo and I'm dating or I've
dated guys that play in the NFL and like I'm
flying to New York for a date like these are
that they.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
This is getting together with them?
Speaker 2 (02:42):
Yes, after having kind of a little bit of a
public forum these yes, And.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
And I don't.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
I'm sure there are things that I do that they
do not approve of, And I'm just I'm nervous. I
don't know if they're going to bring it up. But
I want to go there because Mojo, You've been pushing
me to recommend this relationships that I feel like i've
straight away from.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
I think this is such a good opportunity to do
that because it doesn't feel so serious, do you know
what I mean? You guys are all going to be
in a beautiful place, it's going to be a great
weather weekend. You're going to be doing things that you
all enjoy doing together. And if something comes up, and
I'm sure it will, I feel like it'll be more
or at least start in a more casual way than
(03:25):
if you all, you know, were to like sit down
and hash things out.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
And if you're already shooting targets, you can just turn.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
And there's so much alcohol involved. I guess my fear
is like I don't want the alcohol to It could
make it I think good, or it could make it sure.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Well, I think that one of the things that you
hope is you hope that it all just doesn't come out,
you know, like at once, and that people kind of
ease into whatever, Hey.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
What you've been doing? Stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
But also you got to understand that that just comes
along with the ride a little bit.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
And these are people probably that.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Know way more about you than we do because they've
been part of your family history, your friendship history for
a long time. Like I always say, it's interesting, there's
a couple sides of me. In a lot of cases,
there's Mojo and then there's Tom. And when you get
together with the Tom people, sometimes I get embarrassed when
the Tom people start telling the Mojo people.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Yeah, a little bit of the stuff.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
I feel like that frequently. So I kept a diary
when I first moved to Detroit, and I was looking
at it and like one of the first diary things
was like, I feel like I have two different lives.
I had the White Lake life and then I have
the Detroit life, and I just want one.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
I just want everyone to merge the two together.
Speaker 5 (04:40):
Is there one family member in particular that is because
I feel like we all got that family member, Like
you know, for a fact, if someone's gonna bring up something,
it's gonna be Grandma Ruth, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
Like, do you have that person in your family?
Speaker 3 (04:54):
No? And I would say I think my family's the
most accepting now, like my parents and stuff, like we've
we've had conversations finally to where we know where we stand.
It's it's like the friend group where I haven't had
any conversations with them.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
When's the last time you went on this trip?
Speaker 3 (05:14):
I think I went for a couple of hours last.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Year, but a couple of hours. You drove all the way.
You drove a couple hours to do a go for
a couple of hours.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Yeah, And even like there was an instance where like
something went poorly because I said, we were all signing
a beer pong table and I put Anna effine Rob
and they didn't like the effing, which I get, I get,
But like things like a little spit I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
Yeah, that a little swear word Anna. I like that
potty mouth.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Potty mouth you know what that happens that my family
functions when that happens.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
We washed somebody's mouth that was so.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
But you know what that makes me, That makes me
really sad that that's like And to me, that's not
a very big deal. I understand to some people like
they don't, you know, approove of swear words or whatever,
but that that's you. And I feel like, I really
really hope that this weekend, like you feel like you
can be yourself and they can come to accepting who
(06:11):
you've evolved to be. You're still Anna, Rob, You're still Anna,
asking Rob.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
My biggest thing is like respect, Like I don't agree
with a lot of things that go on with a
lot of different people, but I have a respect for
them and I won't act that way around them because
I know it makes them feel uncomfortable. And I just
hope that that translates the same way.
Speaker 6 (06:33):
Jay.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
What's up? Jay?
Speaker 2 (06:34):
You've just heard Anna talk about how she's going on
her up north family trip this weekend.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
What's happening?
Speaker 7 (06:40):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Yo?
Speaker 6 (06:41):
What up?
Speaker 8 (06:41):
Anna?
Speaker 7 (06:42):
So?
Speaker 8 (06:42):
I just wanted to mention you really just got to emphasize, Yo,
I live a poogie life, but these little moments in
my life I really want to hold on to right
like I live. I want to be this this country girl.
I want to do all these little things like these
things are these mean a lot to me? I mean,
emphasize that to them and just awesome mention. Hey, I'll
(07:03):
do things that I'm you know, I think that's important.
Just emphasize those things, and I really think that you
could take a step forward.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
I think it's fun, honestly to.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
See yourself do this because I think that in a
lot of cases, I said this from experience, there's nothing
better than going back to the innocence. I call it
the innocence because that was when you knew nothing other
than what you grew up doing and so loving the
ability to be able to reconnect with people that you
(07:38):
grew up with that were some of the first to
accept you and that you were able to be around
and understand that they probably also have things that are
going on in their lives. Is when we didn't have
stress when we were younger, you know, when we were
kids and we could live like lives like kids. Those
were some of the greatest moments that I ever had
in my life. Marvin's going on.
Speaker 7 (08:01):
I was gonna say too, is first of all, how
bought you with y'all guys, a big bag of jolly ranchers?
Or somebody swiped them from y'all y'all building.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
What did you do? Uh?
Speaker 6 (08:13):
You know?
Speaker 7 (08:14):
I have the Jolly Ranchers in my car the liftal car.
I picked y'all up before. Yes, I bought y'all big
bag of jolly ranchers. I couldn't get in the building,
so I gave it to this lady that was outside.
They give it to you guys, and I.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Guess we never got them.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
We never got y ranchers Marvin. Marvin is the lyft
driver that has given us rides before. So oh well,
we're well look for I love jolly ranchers too, Watermelon
is my favorite.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
But what's going on? What do you want to say something?
Speaker 7 (08:40):
And I though, yeah, I was gonna say, stick to
your guns, don't change for your family, because I know
sometimes family can be hard and tough. They got to
accept you for who you are. I mean we changed,
think about it, we changed like every five years, we
different people. Uh, just stick to your guns to who
you are and they got to love you for who
(09:03):
you are.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Thank you, that's beautiful, Marvin, Thank you, and thanks for
the attempt on the Jolly ranchers.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
What's going on? Shay good morning. Tell her there is
nothing wrong with a butt tattoo. I actually have two
fifty seven and and.
Speaker 6 (09:17):
And my thirty five year old son paid for them,
oh willingly, and we went together to get tattoos.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
And I was like, well, I'm getting one on my
butt cheek so everybody can't see them.
Speaker 9 (09:27):
So that's the beauty of them, is that unless you
showed them, they don't even know. And mine is Hello
kitty with her eyes scratching out on one cheek.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
All right, now wait, now you went too far. Jay,
I'm sorry you went too far. Hello Kitty.
Speaker 9 (09:42):
Your old daughter picked about.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Okay, that's a family event and there you Maybe you
guys should find a tattoo pat together up north and
all get tattoos together.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
You guys can do an up North tattoo. What's up? Kelly?
Speaker 9 (09:55):
Hi? First, I want to say lifetime listener, longtime caller.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Thank you, appreciate it.
Speaker 9 (10:00):
You're welcome. I just want to tell Anna be yourself.
It took me a while to be comfortable in my
body with my family. I after college ran in Chicago
started working at Coyote Ugly. They judged me for that.
I hadn't been THEATA web blocks and I've been raising
around my own She's now eighteen, and she's been raised
the way that I've felt comfortable in my body with
my family, and it sets boundaries and they'll come around eventually,
(10:22):
because it took my family a while, but they now
support me, and those that don't, I just don't see them.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
Yeah, and uh so the people that you are good with, though,
do you still get together with them and even bring
up some of the past and stuff.
Speaker 9 (10:36):
Oh, yeah, we do all the time. I have a
very close family now. And then my friends that have
stuff with me, they're amazing. They're actually like my daughters,
aunts and whatnot. So they're amazing. The people that have
stayed in my life because everyone goes through changes. You
shed your skin every five you know, every five years.
So if they're willing to be there with you as
you do those changes and as you become the person
that you are, those are the people you want to
(10:58):
keep in your corner.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Thank you for the call. Appreciated. It's funny everybody talks
about the last couple of colors. You go through changes
every five years. I don't feel like I go through
changes every five years. I do feel like things do
change every five years. But I try to stay if
I can, the person that I am. And that's why
when I go back to people that I knew from
the past, deep down inside, I think that they can
(11:22):
always sit there and go, Okay, yeah, you've had a
lot of life experiences that I didn't have, but we
can sit there and have so much commonality about remembering memories.
Speaker 6 (11:33):
You know.
Speaker 5 (11:34):
I think the core of who you are remains the same,
but I think your perspective changes and circumstances. Yeah, like
how you start to see things.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Day, what's up? Day?
Speaker 6 (11:45):
Hey, good morning, guys.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Morning. Did you steal our jolly ranchers? I want to
know who took our jolly ranchers? I wish I can't
believe it.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Some woman stole our jolly ranchers.
Speaker 6 (12:02):
But no, I was gonna say that I've been through
that too, like going through phases, like especially with my mom,
we kind of like get into our moods where we
kind of butt heads and we kind of like stopped
talking for a little while. I know, I was away
working for a long time, and then when I came back,
she was kind of mad that I didn't come back
and see her. I visited my dad.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
Yeah, but we kind.
Speaker 6 (12:22):
Of like talked about like just the differences and how
we were feeling and like why I felt the way
I was feeling. We like talked it out, and it
like brought us a lot closer. I feel like we're
a lot closer now that we're adults and we weren't
growing like when I was growing up.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Name that's nice, you know.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
It's it's interesting when you have families that are split
and you go back to town to visit and you
only can see certain family members at certain times because
not everybody can get along.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
That's tough. It makes it tough on people.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
I will say I was super nervous to bring this up,
but hearing people have like similar also are going through
it makes me feel a little better.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
So thank you to everyone for sharing.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
We've talked about this before on the show that the
beauty of this radio show is there are so many
people that are dealing with what you're dealing with, and
that's why we talk about certain things on the air
that are relatable. Victoria, what's up, Victoria? This is an
interesting call? What's going on?
Speaker 9 (13:15):
First time?
Speaker 8 (13:16):
Long time?
Speaker 9 (13:20):
Also, I'm a bartender in White Lake and some of
her family's actually like regulars at our bar.
Speaker 7 (13:25):
And when I found out.
Speaker 9 (13:26):
That you were family with them, like, I obviously congratulated
them and Facebook so highly of you. So I just
wanted to know about.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
What bar Sprader's on the Lake.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
Oh I love that.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
Probably my aunt Heather and all my cousins. Oh yeah,
they have a drink named after her at the bar.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
And Heather.
Speaker 8 (13:46):
Deep Betty's line soda and the Key West line juice.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Wait, can I go back for something real quick because
I don't you touch on it, but I think that
that's really important. So you have met family of Anna,
and when you say, hey, I listened to the show
and I now have heard man on the show. They
have said great things about Anna. That's wonderful.
Speaker 9 (14:07):
Yeah for sure. Yeah it's Heather and her daughter, So.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
I'm sure you know them.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
And that's one more thing that I will say, is
like I don't no one's ever said to me, we
don't like how you're living, Like this is just how
I'm I feel.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
So here's the thing. I do not know Anna very well.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
I know.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
I think the rest of you guys better, but I
have gotten to know Anna overtime and deep down inside
you can tell a person's core, and your core is great.
The thing that is honestly made me like you even
more the other morning, having your mom on having your grandpa,
you know, hearing from these people and hearing these old
(14:46):
stories and hearing the way the EO that you have
told stories about them, And I'm going to tell you something.
It's wild when people will come up to me in
public and they'll say something like, Hey, I remember when
you said this about Chelsea, or Hey, how's Aunt Pac doing?
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Or Hey, you know what I mean? And I'm gonna
tell you this.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
That is what we call the mojo in the morning
family making our other families feel welcome and comforted, and
it's awesome. I'm gonna I'm gonna tell you something you're
gonna learn in a year from now. You're gonna can't
you won't wait. It will be hard for you not
to anticipate that trip up north. Yay, so I think
it will be good.
Speaker 5 (15:26):
I feel like you want to wrap up, But do
you do you feel like you have your own wallop?
Because I feel like you just said something interesting. I
can't remember exactly what you said, but it made me
ask that question, like do you perceive that they perceive
you a certain way, and by that like you're going
into it on pins and needles, or you know what
I mean.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
Yeah, definitely, I think it goes both ways. I think
there's things that have happened or that I've overheard that
have made me feel that way. But also it's probably
a little bit of me just being overly protective of
myself and likeserved.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Yeah, well, what do you think, Kevin?
Speaker 5 (16:00):
It made me I'll be thinking of stuff, but it
made me think of like somebody said, there are times where,
like say, for example, you go to a body of
water and you look inside and you can clearly see
your reflection. You can't see that reflection through boiling water. Now,
the only thing that has changed is what's taking place,
not who you are. So sometimes, like the reflection that
(16:21):
we're looking at, if I'm angry, then that water is boiling,
it's changing who I am. So sometimes I'm like, Okay,
well is it how I'm looking at the situation and
not how the situation has changed?
Speaker 1 (16:30):
If that makes sense?
Speaker 3 (16:32):
Wisdom?
Speaker 1 (16:33):
That was very good.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
I feel like, let's go to a coffee shop, all
of us right now, Let's get some coffee here.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
What do you guys think
Mojo in the morning show.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
So for those that don't know who Anna is, the
newest member of the show, She's the newest member of
the radio show.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
Here. She is going to be thirty, right, A right
to say that December.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
She's leaving her twenties, going into her thirties and growing

and they didn't like the effing, which I get, I get,
But like things like a little spit I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
Yeah, that a little swear word Anna. I like that
potty mouth.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Potty mouth you know what that happens that my family
functions when that happens.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
We washed somebody's mouth that was so.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
But you know what that makes me, That makes me
really sad that that's like And to me, that's not
a very big deal. I understand to some people like
they don't, you know, approove of swear words or whatever,
but that that's you. And I feel like, I really
really hope that this weekend, like you feel like you
can be yourself and they can come to accepting who
(06:11):
you've evolved to be. You're still Anna, Rob, You're still Anna,
asking Rob.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
My biggest thing is like respect, Like I don't agree
with a lot of things that go on with a
lot of different people, but I have a respect for
them and I won't act that way around them because
I know it makes them feel uncomfortable. And I just
hope that that translates the same way.
Speaker 6 (06:33):
Jay.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
What's up? Jay?
Speaker 2 (06:34):
You've just heard Anna talk about how she's going on
her up north family trip this weekend.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
What's happening?
Speaker 7 (06:40):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Yo?
Speaker 6 (06:41):
What up?
Speaker 8 (06:41):
Anna?
Speaker 7 (06:42):
So?
Speaker 8 (06:42):
I just wanted to mention you really just got to emphasize, Yo,
I live a poogie life, but these little moments in
my life I really want to hold on to right
like I live. I want to be this this country girl.
I want to do all these little things like these
things are these mean a lot to me? I mean,
emphasize that to them and just awesome mention. Hey, I'll
(07:03):
do things that I'm you know, I think that's important.
Just emphasize those things, and I really think that you
could take a step forward.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
I think it's fun, honestly to.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
See yourself do this because I think that in a
lot of cases, I said this from experience, there's nothing
better than going back to the innocence. I call it
the innocence because that was when you knew nothing other
than what you grew up doing and so loving the
ability to be able to reconnect with people that you
(07:38):
grew up with that were some of the first to
accept you and that you were able to be around
and understand that they probably also have things that are
going on in their lives. Is when we didn't have
stress when we were younger, you know, when we were
kids and we could live like lives like kids. Those
were some of the greatest moments that I ever had
in my life. Marvin's going on.
Speaker 7 (08:01):
I was gonna say too, is first of all, how
bought you with y'all guys, a big bag of jolly ranchers?
Or somebody swiped them from y'all y'all building.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
What did you do? Uh?
Speaker 6 (08:13):
You know?
Speaker 7 (08:14):
I have the Jolly Ranchers in my car the liftal car.
I picked y'all up before. Yes, I bought y'all big
bag of jolly ranchers. I couldn't get in the building,
so I gave it to this lady that was outside.
They give it to you guys, and I.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Guess we never got them.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
We never got y ranchers Marvin. Marvin is the lyft
driver that has given us rides before. So oh well,
we're well look for I love jolly ranchers too, Watermelon
is my favorite.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
But what's going on? What do you want to say something?
Speaker 7 (08:40):
And I though, yeah, I was gonna say, stick to
your guns, don't change for your family, because I know
sometimes family can be hard and tough. They got to
accept you for who you are. I mean we changed,
think about it, we changed like every five years, we
different people. Uh, just stick to your guns to who
you are and they got to love you for who
(09:03):
you are.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Thank you, that's beautiful, Marvin, Thank you, and thanks for
the attempt on the Jolly ranchers.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
What's going on? Shay good morning. Tell her there is
nothing wrong with a butt tattoo. I actually have two
fifty seven and and.
Speaker 6 (09:17):
And my thirty five year old son paid for them,
oh willingly, and we went together to get tattoos.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
And I was like, well, I'm getting one on my
butt cheek so everybody can't see them.
Speaker 9 (09:27):
So that's the beauty of them, is that unless you
showed them, they don't even know. And mine is Hello
kitty with her eyes scratching out on one cheek.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
All right, now wait, now you went too far. Jay,
I'm sorry you went too far. Hello Kitty.
Speaker 9 (09:42):
Your old daughter picked about.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Okay, that's a family event and there you Maybe you
guys should find a tattoo pat together up north and
all get tattoos together.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
You guys can do an up North tattoo. What's up? Kelly?
Speaker 9 (09:55):
Hi? First, I want to say lifetime listener, longtime caller.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Thank you, appreciate it.
Speaker 9 (10:00):
You're welcome. I just want to tell Anna be yourself.
It took me a while to be comfortable in my
body with my family. I after college ran in Chicago
started working at Coyote Ugly. They judged me for that.
I hadn't been THEATA web blocks and I've been raising
around my own She's now eighteen, and she's been raised
the way that I've felt comfortable in my body with
my family, and it sets boundaries and they'll come around eventually,
(10:22):
because it took my family a while, but they now
support me, and those that don't, I just don't see them.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
Yeah, and uh so the people that you are good with, though,
do you still get together with them and even bring
up some of the past and stuff.
Speaker 9 (10:36):
Oh, yeah, we do all the time. I have a
very close family now. And then my friends that have
stuff with me, they're amazing. They're actually like my daughters,
aunts and whatnot. So they're amazing. The people that have
stayed in my life because everyone goes through changes. You
shed your skin every five you know, every five years.
So if they're willing to be there with you as
you do those changes and as you become the person
that you are, those are the people you want to
(10:58):
keep in your corner.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Thank you for the call. Appreciated. It's funny everybody talks
about the last couple of colors. You go through changes
every five years. I don't feel like I go through
changes every five years. I do feel like things do
change every five years. But I try to stay if
I can, the person that I am. And that's why
when I go back to people that I knew from
the past, deep down inside, I think that they can
(11:22):
always sit there and go, Okay, yeah, you've had a
lot of life experiences that I didn't have, but we
can sit there and have so much commonality about remembering memories.
Speaker 6 (11:33):
You know.
Speaker 5 (11:34):
I think the core of who you are remains the same,
but I think your perspective changes and circumstances. Yeah, like
how you start to see things.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Day, what's up? Day?
Speaker 6 (11:45):
Hey, good morning, guys.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Morning. Did you steal our jolly ranchers? I want to
know who took our jolly ranchers? I wish I can't
believe it.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Some woman stole our jolly ranchers.
Speaker 6 (12:02):
But no, I was gonna say that I've been through
that too, like going through phases, like especially with my mom,
we kind of like get into our moods where we
kind of butt heads and we kind of like stopped
talking for a little while. I know, I was away
working for a long time, and then when I came back,
she was kind of mad that I didn't come back
and see her. I visited my dad.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
Yeah, but we kind.
Speaker 6 (12:22):
Of like talked about like just the differences and how
we were feeling and like why I felt the way
I was feeling. We like talked it out, and it
like brought us a lot closer. I feel like we're
a lot closer now that we're adults and we weren't
growing like when I was growing up.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Name that's nice, you know.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
It's it's interesting when you have families that are split
and you go back to town to visit and you
only can see certain family members at certain times because
not everybody can get along.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
That's tough. It makes it tough on people.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
I will say I was super nervous to bring this up,
but hearing people have like similar also are going through
it makes me feel a little better.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
So thank you to everyone for sharing.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
We've talked about this before on the show that the
beauty of this radio show is there are so many
people that are dealing with what you're dealing with, and
that's why we talk about certain things on the air
that are relatable. Victoria, what's up, Victoria? This is an
interesting call? What's going on?
Speaker 9 (13:15):
First time?
Speaker 8 (13:16):
Long time?
Speaker 9 (13:20):
Also, I'm a bartender in White Lake and some of
her family's actually like regulars at our bar.
Speaker 7 (13:25):
And when I found out.
Speaker 9 (13:26):
That you were family with them, like, I obviously congratulated
them and Facebook so highly of you. So I just
wanted to know about.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
What bar Sprader's on the Lake.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
Oh I love that.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
Probably my aunt Heather and all my cousins. Oh yeah,
they have a drink named after her at the bar.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
And Heather.
Speaker 8 (13:46):
Deep Betty's line soda and the Key West line juice.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Wait, can I go back for something real quick because
I don't you touch on it, but I think that
that's really important. So you have met family of Anna,
and when you say, hey, I listened to the show
and I now have heard man on the show. They
have said great things about Anna. That's wonderful.
Speaker 9 (14:07):
Yeah for sure. Yeah it's Heather and her daughter, So.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
I'm sure you know them.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
And that's one more thing that I will say, is
like I don't no one's ever said to me, we
don't like how you're living, Like this is just how
I'm I feel.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
So here's the thing. I do not know Anna very well.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
I know.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
I think the rest of you guys better, but I
have gotten to know Anna overtime and deep down inside
you can tell a person's core, and your core is great.
The thing that is honestly made me like you even
more the other morning, having your mom on having your grandpa,
you know, hearing from these people and hearing these old
(14:46):
stories and hearing the way the EO that you have
told stories about them, And I'm going to tell you something.
It's wild when people will come up to me in
public and they'll say something like, Hey, I remember when
you said this about Chelsea, or Hey, how's Aunt Pac doing?
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Or Hey, you know what I mean? And I'm gonna
tell you this.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
That is what we call the mojo in the morning
family making our other families feel welcome and comforted, and
it's awesome. I'm gonna I'm gonna tell you something you're
gonna learn in a year from now. You're gonna can't
you won't wait. It will be hard for you not
to anticipate that trip up north. Yay, so I think
it will be good.
Speaker 5 (15:26):
I feel like you want to wrap up, But do
you do you feel like you have your own wallop?
Because I feel like you just said something interesting. I
can't remember exactly what you said, but it made me
ask that question, like do you perceive that they perceive
you a certain way, and by that like you're going
into it on pins and needles, or you know what
I mean.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
Yeah, definitely, I think it goes both ways. I think
there's things that have happened or that I've overheard that
have made me feel that way. But also it's probably
a little bit of me just being overly protective of
myself and likeserved.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Yeah, well, what do you think, Kevin?
Speaker 5 (16:00):
It made me I'll be thinking of stuff, but it
made me think of like somebody said, there are times where,
like say, for example, you go to a body of
water and you look inside and you can clearly see
your reflection. You can't see that reflection through boiling water. Now,
the only thing that has changed is what's taking place,
not who you are. So sometimes, like the reflection that
(16:21):
we're looking at, if I'm angry, then that water is boiling,
it's changing who I am. So sometimes I'm like, Okay,
well is it how I'm looking at the situation and
not how the situation has changed?
Speaker 1 (16:30):
If that makes sense?
Speaker 3 (16:32):
Wisdom?
Speaker 1 (16:33):
That was very good.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
I feel like, let's go to a coffee shop, all
of us right now, Let's get some coffee here.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
What do you guys think
