Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, Mojo in the Morning Show. I have literally
no decorations put up inside of my house, for real, none,
not one. We were supposed to do it. Chelsea and
I were going to put them up when the kids
were in for Thanksgiving, and I kind of got her
off of the scent of the I would call it
(00:21):
the scent of the holidays by saying to her, you
know what, less wait and you and I will do
it when they're not here and it will be something
fun for us to do. And then time has kind
of gone on and it's kind of gotten to a
point where I can say, you know what, there's only
four more days or five more days.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Why we have to dicreat for Christmas.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
I don't like it, not that I have to do
any of it. I just have to lift the do
the heavy lifting.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
I did my house over the weekend and it I
feel like I went all out this year. And I
always I always do up like we have two we
have two Christmas trees. Each of the kids have a
little teeny tiny Christmas tree that they decorate in their
rooms like a fig tree.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
I always do.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
I spent so much time this year making my fireplace
extra cool, I put like tons of fake greenery on there,
and I strung ornaments in it, and I hung our
stockings on one side.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
And.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Actually almost burned my damn house down doing those things.
Speaker 4 (01:21):
Because Wess than the night that I did it. He
was like, let's it's so cozy in here now, it
feels so Christmas y, let's watch a Christmas movie.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
I'll light a fire in the fireplace. Okay, fine, Like
I pretty much do the same thing every year, so
this has never been an issue. And he decided at
one point that the fire looked like it was kind
of going out, so I don't know why. Instead of
putting another log or two on the fire, he went
into the garage and got a big Amazon box and
(01:51):
brought it in and threw it on top of the fire.
You guys, this thing whooshed like I've never seen flames
come out of my fireplace before, around the fireplace screen
out of the fireplace, caught the fake garland and the
stockings on fire.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
Not Singe actually caught them on fire, put it out,
took them down, and stomped on them on the marble
like the ground that's right by the fireplace.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
I about we almost about died, I say about died
figuratively it was, and then all you smelled was the
burning of the rubber, because I think the garlands are
like rubber, you know, and then the cloth from the stocking.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
It's probably not a good idea to have them.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
Let me tell you something. I've had them every year
since I've lived in that house, the same one, so
ten years now. I've never had an issue because I've
never had a dummy put a huge box in the
actual fireplace.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Was like, I got it.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
They droop down into that area. Like when I say
flame shot, I'm not choking.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
I always wonder from I don't know, if the fire
guys listen to us, we should uhl call uh uh
the the Detroit fire chiefs that that love listening to
the mojo on the morning show, and we should ask
them the question about are there more fires or less
fires at this time of the year. Because I always
love the disaster stories, like the you love them, I
(03:25):

You know what's uh? Somebody told me about you know,
how you get the whipped cream in a can or
in the you know, like the what is it? It
kind of comes out the white little snout at the
front of the thing. Somebody told me if you put
that too close to your stove, that thing could explode
with all the stuff that's in it.

Men with your guys funny stories about fireplace incidences.
Speaker 8 (08:43):
Around Christmas time. Yes, a few years ago, we're sitting
there watching a Christmas movie. We got a natural fireplace
center house and my wife I used to nickname her
the Pyro because she's always messed around with fires and
sitting there watching a Christmas movie. The next thing I know,
it sounds like a bomb goes off in the fireplace.
(09:06):
Ashes are flying everywhere, hot umbers all over the carpet.
I'm like, what the heck is going on?
Speaker 7 (09:12):
Ends up that she didn't realize she put some trash
in there from the bathroom.
Speaker 8 (09:17):
And a shaving cream bottle in there, and the thing exploded.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Oh god, oh my god, that's a freak.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
If that shot out of there, that could have been
real bad.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
You know what's uh? Somebody told me about you know,
how you get the whipped cream in a can or
in the you know, like the what is it? It
kind of comes out the white little snout at the
front of the thing. Somebody told me if you put
that too close to your stove, that thing could explode
with all the stuff that's in it.
Speaker 9 (09:53):
Yeah, probably like some.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
People have had it sitting on their their stove. Stove
turns on and next thing, you know, that thing's a
fre can you know? Pipe bomb? What's up?
