Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's Mojo in the morning show. I always love talking
(00:03):
about stuff like this. A matter of fact, we were
trying to side between a couple of Shannon's topics that
you had today, and I thought this topic was really
good because for some reason, and I've never really done
anything to buy one of these, but I know Chelsea has.
I am always obsessed with hearing stories about handbags and
reels and fakes and watches and reels and fakes like
(00:26):
you can buy. Like right now, the big thing on
my Instagram feed are people buying fake Rolexes.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
And how these they can.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
I be honest with you, they look really really good.
I've never bought one before. Chelsea's bought a fake Rolex
and it looks dead on. I'm not kidding you when
I say this to you, it is dead on, the
only thing that's different on her wrist. It looks dead
on when you feel it, You're like, this seems like
somebody got out of a gumball.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Machine or something.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
But it looks good like aesthetically. You know, what's your story.
Speaker 4 (01:01):
So I have a few nicer purses and some of
them are real. I saved up and you know, treated
myself or whatnot. Some of them are fake. And my
question is, when someone compliments something that you have that
is fake, do you come clean and admit that it.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Is not real?
Speaker 4 (01:21):
And I say this because it just happened to me
with Anna in the kitchen this week in the kitchen
here at the radio station, I have a tote bag
and I was wearing it and She's like, oh my god,
this bag? Is it worth the money?
Speaker 2 (01:34):
I can't remember.
Speaker 5 (01:35):
I've been wanting one person so long, And I was like,
do I admit to her that this bag was very,
very cheap and is one million percent not real?
Speaker 4 (01:46):
And I did end up saying it's fake.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
I will buy you one.
Speaker 5 (01:49):
I loved one because I was like, put me in
on the next order that one looks good.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Yes, yeah, I think you say it because I think
that it gives you the ability to be able to
uh show somebody that, hey, this thing looks so good
that you think it is a good thing.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
It's a really good thing.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
But but I do also think that there's many that
wouldn't because I think there's many that feel like they're
posing if they are using.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
It, and it's fake. Uncomfort.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
But I'll be honest with you. I think more power
to you, you know what I mean? Yeah, like absolutely,
Like I used to buy fake easies. We and we
would buy them all the time for our kids, like
uh Luke Luke always had a fake had fake easy
and they grow out of them, but they were dead
on so good.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
I don't want time.
Speaker 6 (02:36):
When I was in high school, my dad brought me
some air Force once. I'm like, oh, the all white
on white joints. He's banging warm thought nothing of it.
Come around, Tom, I need some more. Like you want
to come with me? I'm like, yeah, we pull up
to a damn liquor store on this one.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Air Force ones had like dots at the top. They
did not have even a moment. Guys, you know, I.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
Take that girl's trip with Lucy, my daughter Lucy to
New York City every December. We're going again this year,
and it's her favorite thing now to buy a fake
from like one of the guys on the street.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
That opens up the suitcase.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
And so every year, I'm like, what are we shopping
for this year, Louis Joey Arucci?
Speaker 2 (03:23):
What do you want?
Speaker 6 (03:23):
I love them too, Yes, I get obsessed with like
bro like working at stock Eggs where they have like
the authenticators and things of that nature. When it comes
to shoes in particular, some of the fakes are made
with the same materials and still fabrics and sometimes in
the same warehouse.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Yes, that's the very real thing.
Speaker 6 (03:39):
So it's the only thing is like, it's not being
sent from the company. That's the only quote unquote real factor.
Speaker 5 (03:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
I think it's interesting if you pull off the fake
and you sent you give it to a family member,
like say, your dad gives you the fake and doesn't
say to you it's not it's sake, and then you
look like you're you got this disclosed?
Speaker 2 (03:57):
What's going on? Joanne? How you doing?
Speaker 7 (04:00):
Hi, I'm good, first time caller.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Hey. Uh so, I'm in agreement with Shannon.
Speaker 8 (04:10):
I think that.
Speaker 7 (04:13):
If you know the person, you should tell them that, hey,
you know, this isn't real. And if you're like out
in public somewhere and just some random person says, hey,
that's a great bag, I would just tell them thanks
and keep on going, because what's the point in disclosing
that you didn't buy a real one.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (04:30):
Actually, honestly, there's so many outlet places now too that
you can go buy them, so you just discounted for
the same product.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
Well, and that's an interesting analogy with the outlets, Like
if somebody if you go buy something and somebody says
to you, oh my god, I love that the thing
was amazing and it's so so beautiful, but they're so expensive.
Do you tell them that you got it at the outlet?
You know, I mean you wouldn't do that. Oh you
would tell them, oh, just to help them out and
tell them that you got it there. But I but
(04:58):
you're right, But what what if it was a complete
stranger that I said that to you?
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Would you tell that complete stranger.
Speaker 8 (05:03):
That probably still because I mean, I don't care.
Speaker 7 (05:07):
I'm spending my money how I want to spend my money. Yeah,
and I can help somebody else out.
Speaker 9 (05:11):
Why not?
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Well, then why wouldn't you tell a complete stranger you
got a fake? And how you got a fake?
Speaker 2 (05:18):
That's a little different to me.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
It's to me, it's you know, it's the same thing.
But what's going on? Michelle?
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Hi? Hey, So I am the first to admit when
I bought something that's cheaper fake because we're all out
here balling on a budget. And if I can help
someone look just as good. I am going to so
I am the first to admit I got this from
she and ten bucks. Get you one two looks looks legit,
and I share. I don't gate keep. I share all
(05:46):
of that so we can all look.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Good in peace. There you go, see that that's kind.
It's very good.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
My favorite was misfit Victor, who would go and buy
his kids like he got He's got somebody that's really good.
His kids are smarter, They know too much. They knew
that something. What was the doll that everybody was going
the lea boo boos? His kids knew right away that
they were lufufus when he got it.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
What's going on, Tony?
Speaker 10 (06:14):
Hi?
Speaker 8 (06:14):
So I just call my friends and co workers. My
purse collection is like Russian roulette. You never know what
one's actually.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Really well, listen, I bet if I go to your house,
I know which ones are real and which ones are fake.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
I don't know.
Speaker 8 (06:27):
They're pretty good.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Like Shannon said, I'm saying, I guarantee, I guarantee you
put your real ones in a different place than you
put your fake ones. He might be right, Yeah, you're
you're making sure nobody's messing around. With those, Uh, what's
going on, Jordan, what's happening?
Speaker 2 (06:45):
How are you.
Speaker 8 (06:48):
Hello?
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Hi?
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Hi Joy?
Speaker 8 (06:52):
So I had around the ond in college, I bought
a fake Gucci purse. I bought a bunch of them,
and I had a crossbody that I wore all the time.
Husband my boyfriend but not my husband. One of his
friends stopped and looked at He's like, that's a really
nice Gucci person. I was like, thinks and I wasn't
gonna say anything off of that because there was other people. Well,
my now husband looks at it and he goes, it's Fucci.
Speaker 9 (07:14):
Gucci.
Speaker 8 (07:15):
And then a couple of years later he bought a
real Gucci belt when he graduated and that was his
like gift for when he started his new job. He
looked at me, he goes, this not Fuccie.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Do you as a as a woman?
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Jordan and Shannon and Anna, would you be upset if
somebody called yours out? Like if somebody were to say
that's fake, Like if somebody walks up to you, I
you know what.
Speaker 8 (07:42):
No, Because I had the girl that said bawling on
a budget. That's how I am now. At the time,
I was younger and I was very like trying to
meet the standards of like materialistic like yes, I can
do this, I have enough. I thought it was more
like a pride thing. And plus it was like in
a younger crowd in front of a ton of people,
so it wasn't like as the street. He and I
would never do that now because he also has like
(08:02):
some watches that look like you know, like the fake
roll ucks you talked about your wife having, and they
look real. So we don't point it out. But if
somebody asked, we're like twenty bucks off ammam, like.
Speaker 4 (08:13):
I said, I would tell. But also if some rado
person came up to me was like that bag is
one hundred percent fake, I'd be like, okay.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
The way, by the way, by the way, the truly
good fakes are not twenty bucks anymore, Like no, they're
still kind of you're still playing hundreds of dollars, but
you're just not paying thousands or tens of thousands dollars.
Can I say something where this is another analogy, I'm
the analogy guy to me, telling you whether or not
that's real or fake is similar to the do you
(08:41):
tell somebody that you're on a weight loss shot? Or
if you get botox, or if you get botox, another
one or somebody asks you, because I think that I
think people asking personally is probably too personal.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
But I think in a lot of respects, I think
that if you.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Tell somebody, you're telling somebody because you're not in embarrassed
by what you're doing. Like I listen. I think your
health is your health. And I think, honestly, if you're
on a weight loss shot and you're doing it for
your health or you're doing it for vanity who cares,
at least your health is going to be better doing it.
And I think that there are sometimes there are people,
and it bothers me sometimes that there are people that
(09:18):
won't even tell they're like family members, And I think
that this the sad thing is I think there's some
family members that probably should be on the shot too.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
You know what I mean, I really do.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
Like I I've talked about my experience and what it's
done for me.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Like I just did blood test and my blood test
was great. Give yourself shout out to good blood tests.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Right, Yeah, but you know what, I don't even know
what my blood type is. I don't even look at it.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
I am I am a plus positive. I don't know.
I don't know. I don't know random, but I could
just be I don't know that.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
But I do know if it's real or fake, I
can tell you. I can tell you that. Hold on
a second. I want to take these calls real quick.
Steven's out with us. Steven, are you there?
Speaker 9 (10:11):
Yes, I'm here.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Get funeral home time back on with us, because I
think this is really good. Get if this is a
perfect one for him. Steven, tell your story.
Speaker 9 (10:21):
All right.
Speaker 10 (10:21):
So I used to work for funeral homes a long
time ago, and.
Speaker 9 (10:25):
We sold very expensive caskets, and to be honest with you,
it was pretty expensive. Well, we had these This couple
came in, They're like, well, we need an expensive casket
for our father. And the castle was around maybe fifteen
to twenty thousand dollars. It was really nice, nice casket.
(10:49):
But the problem is though, when they saw the price
range it was a cherry oak. It was a very
expensive one. And they looked at the price and the
guy told me all to the thought, He's like, listen,
I love my grant my father that very much, but
is there anything like a knockoff that looks exactly like.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Do they have it, they.
Speaker 9 (11:12):
Peper we could put them in and looks just like this,
and I'm like, we do, but it's not as good.
And he's like, well, you know, can we just say
that it's this?
Speaker 4 (11:21):
And yeah, do people care about is that the thing
that's interesting?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
It's your loved one, Like they're going, it's going right
in the ground. I'm not saying I care, but some
people might hold on the.
Speaker 9 (11:32):
Same brown it's just right to the ground and you
haven't seen it for that time period of the funeral.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Hey, I like you know, Stephen, we have a we
have a misfit whose name is funeral home Tim.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
He's on the phone with us right now.
Speaker 10 (11:46):
Tom, are you there, I'm here.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
Say I to Steven. Stephen, you're no longer in the
funeral home game.
Speaker 10 (11:54):
No, I'm not.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Steven was talking to us about selling fake caskets or
fake you know boxes to drop you into the time.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Do you guys have any fakes at your funeral home.
Speaker 10 (12:07):
No, we go with all reputable dealers. Yeah, we do
do anything like that. I want to absolutely one bait.
Stoll's one of the companies gets the reputable dealer real quick.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
I want to ask you a question and we're going
to play the funeral home price is right? What what
is the most expensive uh casket that you can put
somebody in? And what's the least least expensive? Pretty much
just a box. I'm gonna throw you in.
Speaker 10 (12:35):
Well, at one point I had a cask if that
was twenty grand. It was gold played with a blue
velvet interior. There's another one called the platinum, which is
very hard to get. That's about twenty grand. But on
the average, a cherry like you guys you're talking about
you're talking about sixty grand.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
Well, I'm gonna tell my family. Get mom on Amazon?
Were costing behind?
Speaker 8 (13:00):
Just go right in the ground.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Let me toss you what's a zero dollars? What's a
cheap box? I'm just gonna throw you in.
Speaker 9 (13:10):
How much.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
You can get a Yeah, you're going in that.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
Sorry, my dad would be upset with me if I
paid any.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
More than that.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Can I tell you though, I mean, this is personal
story here, but my h some of my dad died.
His wife, my sister, and myself and my brother in
law went to the funeral home. And Chelsea went to
the funeral home and she was going to get one
of the lower rangey ones, and that was to do it.
My brother in law and I put money up to
(13:44):
put him in something nicer, just because I knew my
dad was like a Cadillac guy. He loved his Cadillac.
And I was like, we're throwing him in the Saturn.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (13:53):
He's in the Saturn for the Lexus he is.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
But I at least felt like I owed it to
my dad and I was, you know, I'm just doing
okay on the radio and stuff like that. My brother
in law was in construction and stuff, and we both
sat there and just like.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Well, we're going to give him whatever, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
So we ended up up in the the casket a
little bit.
Speaker 11 (14:11):
Yeah, I have ay have a family right now that
uh that last time I worked with and we call
them the Amazon generation where they actually buying the casket
is now off the Amazon themselves and bringing them in.
Speaker 9 (14:24):
The funeral home.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
You can do that? Is that? Okay? Really?
Speaker 10 (14:27):
Buy my law. You can buy a casket. You can
make a casket whatever it is, as long as it
needs to specifications. You can bring them into any funeral home.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
Wait a second, I could have had my brother in
law who's in construction make my dad's casket.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
I would have actually been better.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
Hey, great question for you guys, because we talked about
this earlier this morning. Can I buy a groupon for
a cast? Do they have groupons for the thing?
Speaker 10 (14:50):
Well, you can shut up? What's the pre ney and
guaranteed it?
Speaker 8 (14:53):
Today's Bryce. If you go to a funeral and you
say I want.
Speaker 10 (14:56):
To do a pre need, it's called a buy down.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
And somebody that.
Speaker 8 (14:59):
Has money or whatever.
Speaker 10 (15:00):
If they're going to get sick and go in a
nursing home or something, and they have to do what.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
It's called the buyout.
Speaker 10 (15:05):
Otherwise Medicare and medicable lost all your money before they
pay for it the thing.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
Here's what I want to do.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
I'm gonna buy one right now, and it's gonna be
my couch for the next you know how many years
until I die, and then we're gonna be buried in it.
Hold on, Shaye, where did you see a casket? A
used casket?
Speaker 8 (15:20):
You on marketplace? It was like six ducks.
Speaker 6 (15:24):
It was like step Grandma.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Though, that's fantastic. I'm gonna buy one on Marketplace.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
We I wonder if it's like selling your couch, if
like eight hundred people are fighting for the same use casket,
and do they come over to your house to pick
it up.
Speaker 9 (15:42):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
That's amazing, that's awesome.
