Speaker 1 (00:01):
All right, Mojo in the morning show. So Lydia and
our very own Bianca. So the two ladies that are
the dynamic duo of our producer and our social producer,
they're very close somehow. I think that you guys have
(00:22):
to have some kind of relation. Are you guys related somehow?
Like family members and stuff related? Because I know most
Chaldeans have like some kind of Oh yeah, our uncles
on you know, our mom's side for some reason. You know,
they all hung out and Iraq together at one point
or another.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Her dad is probably brothers with mine where we just
don't know it.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
It's wild because you guys are very very close, and
you guys did not know each other before Bianca started here.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Right Lydia, no, I didn't know her, but I did
hire her.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
Oh that's right. I forgot about that because you were
in the promotions department at the time.
Speaker 4 (00:52):
I remember that.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
I So, what's going on with the two of you guys.
I understand that you guys might try to do a
double date?
Speaker 4 (00:58):
Is that right?
Speaker 2 (00:59):
I'm trying to set Bianca up with one of Drew's friends.
Speaker 4 (01:03):
Oh the podcast.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
His name is not Drew, though his name is Uh,
what do we call by the dates, not.
Speaker 5 (01:12):
He doesn't want to be called D's not Stroe.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
Okay, I can't confirm or deny what he did say
on where he likes Drew, so you can call Phoenix Flavor.
Speaker 5 (01:24):
But that's how listeners would know him is from that story, correct.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Yeah, okay, So, uh, you want to try to set
him up with one of his.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Buddies, Yeah, Bianca up with one.
Speaker 4 (01:33):
Of her Yeah, except Banca.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Because Drew is.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Coming in for the podcast and he's going to be
here for that weekend. So I thought it would be
a wonderful idea if Bianca were to see one of
Drew's friends as well. And so now I'm trying to
get them together at the podcast.
Speaker 4 (01:49):
Are you sure that you want to do this?
Speaker 1 (01:50):
Because you don't get much time with him, because it's
like a long distance relationship, You're going to have to
spend time with Bianca and this other guy.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Well, it would just be after the podcast on Friday,
even go out, and then Drew and I can spend
Saturday and Sunday together.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
Are you up for this?
Speaker 6 (02:04):
Honestly, I'm just doing stuff with the plot at this point.
I'm gonna do it for the plot.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
Honestly, this is more than just a theatrical radio show.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
This is this is a life event here right now.
Speaker 5 (02:18):
Have you seen a picture of the friend and do
you think he's cute?
Speaker 7 (02:21):
Okay, so I'll be honest, he's not. He's not really
my type.
Speaker 6 (02:26):
But I actually called him on the phone yesterday and
he's actually he has a good personality. So I'm like,
all right, Maybe my mom always said personality overlooks. I
might have to take her advice on this one. I
don't know, he's just I like my arap a BB's,
you know, but you know, I might give him a chance.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
You skipped a chapter on how you left him on
Red for a week, and he DMed me to get
a hold of Bianca.
Speaker 5 (02:49):
Stop it right now, and if I read.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
You guys this message, I don't know. Its a little
bit of a weird vibe.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
Or him from him Okay, with the message.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
I'm gonna read it right now. I'm pulling it up.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
He said, Hi, Lydia, thank you for trying to set
me up with Mianka. By the way, it wasn't me,
it was Drew. She might have just lost interest. I'm
not sure, lol, but I hope everything with the show
is going well. I enjoy listening to it in the morning.
Keep up the good work.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
Oh it's very perfect.
Speaker 7 (03:17):
Hey man, he's probably listening right now. Hey, I'm just kidding.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
How old is this guy? Because Bianca is young.
Speaker 7 (03:23):
Oh he's twenty five.
Speaker 6 (03:24):
He's like my yeah, okay, Ronningham boy, he's in your
town too, Shannon, that.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Doesn't sound like a twenty five year old response. That
sounds like a very mature guy.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
But why are you dming me?
Speaker 4 (03:36):
Why did you ghost him in the first place?
Speaker 7 (03:38):
Honestly, I don't know.
Speaker 6 (03:40):
I don't know because see the thing is, if I
don't find him like so hot in the beginning, like
I don't have like incentive to try and talk to him.
But if he was a good personality, maybe I will
like him. Like, honestly, I'm gonna give him a chance.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
It's fine.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
What do you What do you guys think of the
set a friend up type? People like, uh, wait, you
like that idea?
Speaker 8 (03:59):
If the homes has got a girl or the girl's
got some friends. Which should you do this with work coworkers?
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Because I have always been a believer that you don't
do two things. One is you don't spit where you eat,
like you don't, you know, eat duty where you eat.
And I think that's a thing we got to have,
like a rule on nobody dating in the office, because well,
I think it's a bad I think it's a bad
(04:24):
move because it causes for friction on the show. And
then the second thing is I don't like the idea
of setting somebody up from the show with another person
because then if Bianca then says something to us about
this guy that divulges some things about lydia and this
des nuts Drew, I don't want it to become.
Speaker 9 (04:45):
Like you know what I mean, like confusing what you've
just said. You don't like setting people up from the show.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
I used to in my immature days. I did it
all the time. And look at the show right now.
How many people have.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
Gone through in the last six months.
Speaker 9 (05:03):
You set me up with somebody and we survived that
that period.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
Well that was you were lonely and desperate when you
first moved here to.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Desperate, No fair Mojo.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
You did put in a good word for.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Me with Drew, well I did, because Drew came in
as a client. That was a bad move too. We
almost lost him as a client.
Speaker 9 (05:27):
Basic Actually you did for West as well, So okay,
all right, listen, but.
Speaker 5 (05:32):
You've done it.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
I've learned from the errors of my ways. I am
not going to do this anymore. Do any listeners have
any bad like interactions where they set a coworker up
and it turned out to be a bad situation. Would
you call us up and tell us, like, is a
coworker not talking to you anymore?
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Or what happens? If what happens?
Speaker 1 (05:51):
If Bianca and this guy make it, but you and
Drew don't.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
Make it, that could be a possibility.
Speaker 8 (05:57):
Interesting, Then their meet up was just intended for Kazi
and her guy.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Then Bianca has to quit love for her friendship with Lydia.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
I'm sending her in the studio right now because I
cannot use the phone lines while we have our mics on.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Oh okay, I was wondering why she's been expelled to
to the studio.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
That's all right, Let's let's see what the text have
to say. Why don't you do this?
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Let me let me take a commercial break right now,
and we'll come back with comments from listeners on this.
What do you guys think about this? About Lydia and
Biyonca dating friends, so they're going to date, you know.
And it all started with Lydia and this guy Drew.
I did not know this Drew thing was going to
be as serious as it is. I like it.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
It's getting there.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
I still can't believe it because I think that both
of you guys are going to get a phone call
from Father Kasab or whatever his name is, telling you
that you are, I guess, leaving the Kaldean faith because
you guys are dating white boys.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
I'm not leaving the faith. I'm leaving the men.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
I don't know the Kaldian men. Broy'all got to stand?
Speaker 3 (07:07):
What are the emotionally unavailable?
Speaker 1 (07:09):
What do they call it when when the women stray
in their ways? They now don't they have like a
term for this?
Speaker 4 (07:15):
And uh?
Speaker 1 (07:16):
In Middle in Middle Eastern culture, it's like there's isn't
there an You guys are Califats or.
Speaker 7 (07:22):
Look what they brought me? Mom's white, bro?
Speaker 8 (07:27):
Your mama not white? Know your mama is not white, bro?
Stop the count? Is she Italian or what is she?
Speaker 6 (07:33):
She's like Italian French mixed, but she's like white brought
your mom?
Speaker 7 (07:38):
No, she's not. Look at the white and the Keldian they.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
Make is you know, it's amazing. Well, interracial children are
always better looking.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
They are so good.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
But let me but let me go on record to
say this to you. I think that over time, when
you're married or dating a Caldian, you turn that turned Caldian.
Speaker 7 (07:57):
Yeah you do, mom, she say, yeah she does, of course.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Okay, Well then there you go. She's now learned the
culture firsthand. I gave my two cents in this. I
want you to give your two cents. I don't know
if it's a great idea. You guys may think it's
a great idea. I wonder what sometimes when you're in
like Lydia is still not in this relationship long enough
(08:21):
to be setting people up on dates. I think you
almost have to be in a relationship with him for
a while before you start doing the whole setting.
Speaker 9 (08:28):
I disagree with you because I think it's fun that
he's coming into town. He's got a buddy that lives here. Obviously,
Lydia and Bianca are really good friends. So I think
it's just like a fun night out, like, hey, you guys,
join us out.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
You know what it sounds like?
Speaker 5 (08:40):
It is that serious.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
It sounds like to me that he's like, Hey, I'm
staying at my buddy's house. I don't want my buddy
to be lonely. Can we at least bring somebody for
him to talk to?
Speaker 3 (08:50):
Well, he's staying in a hotel, so oh, is he
staying together?
Speaker 1 (08:53):
He's not staying with his buddy in Birmingham in a hotel.
I'm hoping his home. I'm hoping he's only the one
staying in that hotel, not me.
Speaker 7 (09:03):
She is one king bed, no two queens here?
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (09:06):
What about Lydia? Do you think Lydia is going to
be staying with him?
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Hi, I'm not revealing all my cards right now. Okay,
maybe I will.
Speaker 5 (09:12):
Who knows, George just drove off the road.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
Yeah, your poor dad, Dad, we're joking, your poor father, Charlie.
What's up, Charlie.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Okay, I want to refresh your guys's memory as well,
because we need to mark this date five five twenty
five when Mojo says that he's never doing this again
because he's matured, and it's not a good idea because
we all know that you cannot help yourself and you're
going to fix somebody up at the first chance.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
You get.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Can I tell you you know what made me stop
from this whole thing. You will refresh your memory. When
I got blindsided about the idea that Meghan and I
didn't know. Meghan was messing around with that with the
engineer guy, and I told KP, Hey, KP, you should
ask the engineer guy out. He seems like he's a
(10:01):
nice guy. And two people on the show knew and
also encouraged. While they knew that Megan had already had
a relationship with this guy, and they could have stepped
in and said no, no, no, no, not a good idea.
Speaker 9 (10:22):
I was asked not to step in and say anything,
so I did not, do you.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
Know, I went back and listened to that.
Speaker 5 (10:28):
I was not my story to share.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
When I went back to listen to audio, you didn't
put any opposition up.
Speaker 9 (10:34):
I didn't because I was literally this is convoluted. I
was texting with Megan at that time and she said,
please don't say anything.
Speaker 5 (10:41):
I didn't.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
But why wouldn't you discourage KP from the engineer guy
to save relationship? No, she it was so early. It
was the early stages. We didn't want to. But here's
the deal. There can be somebody that's all into somebody else.
But if somebody has already with somebody, you got to
protect your We got to protect the circle, the circle
(11:04):
of trust. We saw we saw meet the parents, right.
I don't know if I want that. I don't want
to look me up with somebody. No, you you need
to be celibate.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
Yes, Charlie, that was that was that was some very
big growth for you. You did learn from that lesson.
I'm so proud I protract. Thank you, Charlie. Thank you, Charlie.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
Can I can I also tell you something real quick
before you hang up the phone, Charlie, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
I also will say this that I am the worst
wing man ever because I have two things in my
life that I'm not good at. One horrible gatar. I
have no good gatar. Number two, I'm not I'm not
good at setting people up on dates. I've tried to
set up friends and it's turned out that the friends
turned out to be kinky or weird, or one particular
(11:57):
person has so much baggage that it ended up causing problems.
And then all of a sudden, what ends up happening
is I lose friends out of the deal.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
So yep, yep, exactly. Thank you take care of yourself.
Do you think that?
Speaker 6 (12:10):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (12:11):
And I know you said from a parent's sake that
you don't find that this guy is your type, but
you say personality wise or conversation wise, you actually liked him?
Speaker 7 (12:20):
Yeah? No, like we talked for like ten minutes.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
What's more important for you? Looks or personality?
Speaker 6 (12:25):
Well? I think both equally, but I think about wanting
to have good looking kids.
Speaker 4 (12:29):
So you're not dating for marriage, but that's not what
I do.
Speaker 7 (12:35):
That's the thing.
Speaker 6 (12:36):
I date someone with the intent of, like I see
myself marrying them, not really for fun.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
I like your honesty because most people would not honestly
answer that.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
How many guys are on your roster that you take serious?
Speaker 4 (12:50):
You gotta ask do you have a roster? Go ahead?
Speaker 6 (12:53):
All right, well this is probably gonna knock it down
like five after this, but it's probably like ten right
now that you're talking to Yeah, I probably racked up
like three girls have five hundred. It's guys, it's hot
girl summer like may hit. It's single day mile when
when the oral day hits, it's hot girls summer.
Speaker 8 (13:08):
Bro.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
All right, don't get your feelings hurt.
Speaker 7 (13:11):
I'm not gonna get my feelings hurt. I'm gonna turn into.
Speaker 8 (13:17):
Now I'm just saying, these girls swear they can be
hot girls, and they swear they can run through them,
and then when they get a little they feelings start
getting hurt.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
Are you speaking from experience?
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Ken?
Speaker 4 (13:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (13:27):
Well yeah, well I'm not gonna be I'm not level.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
So girls have girls have gotten their feelings hurt when
you decided I'm not not.
Speaker 8 (13:35):
I think sometimes people can enter experiences with one assumption
that it's just going to be this, and then once
you start doing this, this being sex, then the emotional
connection come in and then all of a sudden, you know,
they can't handle what they initially agreed to.
Speaker 7 (13:52):
Yeah, well no, I know what I'm doing.
Speaker 6 (13:53):
Guys, and like he he seems like a nice guy,
so like, I'll hang out with all of them for funly.
Speaker 7 (13:59):
We'll see how it goes. If it's a vibe.
Speaker 5 (14:00):
Hope he wasn't listening this morning when you called him not.
Speaker 6 (14:05):
Okay, Well I know what I'm doing. Sorry, I'm gonna
be honest. I don't care, Like I don't owe him anything,
but I'm still gonna give give him the benefit of
the doab. Maybe he's a good guy. I'll give him
a chance. We'll hang out, he liked to DM me.
Speaker 4 (14:17):
Yeah, for you, how often does your roster ever meet
each other?
Speaker 7 (14:21):
Like?
Speaker 1 (14:22):
Have you ever had your roster in the same the
same place at the same time?
Speaker 7 (14:26):
This weekend actually an accident.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
You had an All Star game. So what happens when
they're in the same place? How do you play that?
Speaker 6 (14:33):
I just go with different areas of the room and
be like, Okay, I'm gonna give you one second to
go to the bathroom and make it.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Because you're you are a very friendly, bounced around type
of a person.
Speaker 6 (14:42):
But you just talked to him like I'm not I'm
not like, you're not dating serious.
Speaker 7 (14:45):
And these guys I'm just talking about.
Speaker 4 (14:46):
We're just talking and I don't think there's anything wrong
with it.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
It would be a complete double standard if we said
that what she's doing is wrong because guys can get
away with it, and if guys get away with the girls,
because you to be able to get away with it,
get away with having multiple people they're talking to. Look
at Kevin. Kevin doesn't have a roster, He's got a league.
Listen you say, you say we get away with her,
but everybody always has something to say.
Speaker 6 (15:08):
Yeah, not bringing every guy home every night like you, Like,
I'm just that's not true.
Speaker 5 (15:13):
We're going to be nice to each other mon day.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
It doesn't now make it true. I used to be
worried that this guy was going to break Beyonca's heart.
Aren't you worried that Beyonc is going to break your
friend Drew's friend's heart.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
I think that he was already feeling but her. Well,
if I'm being real, because she didn't answer his DM.
He took it to my DM. Now he's back and
Beyonca's DM. I didn't answer him for five days.
Speaker 6 (15:38):
I was going to answer him probably the day of
the podcast, but like, hey, hanging out tonight, like what's up?
Speaker 3 (15:42):
It could be desperation, no offense. He could just be desperate.
Speaker 7 (15:46):
I don't know, Like you just gotta feel the vibe.
Speaker 6 (15:48):
Maybe man, maybe it's can turn to a second date
update down the road, We'll see.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
It makes me happy. Doesn't make you happy, Shannon, that
you're actually in a relationship right now? This doesn't make
it's like exhausting.
Speaker 4 (15:58):
Can I be honest? Yes, I do want to enter
office relationship with who. I like one. I like the
secrecy of it.
Speaker 5 (16:08):
Now I know who it is.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
I know who it is.
Speaker 3 (16:13):
Is it?
Speaker 4 (16:16):
I don't know what direction you're pointing to. Nothing. Nothing
is starting the east west. Listen, nothing is started.
Speaker 8 (16:21):
I'm just saying I would like to do that so
it could be like this era of secrecy.
Speaker 7 (16:26):
I think that's a bad idea.
Speaker 4 (16:28):
Why would that happen.
Speaker 5 (16:29):
I don't think our company has any rule about that.
Speaker 4 (16:31):
Do they.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
I'm going to tell you something. I'm just staying quiet.
I just think it's a bad idea.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
No go somewhere else you fired the show or from here?
Speaker 1 (16:42):
No, but no, But I think that it's not a
good idea to to uh, I discourage it.
Speaker 8 (16:49):
After think, if two adults can handle themselves accordingly, then
why can't it go well.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
I just think that especially, don't date anybody in the
sales department because as we need to make money from them, so.
Speaker 4 (17:03):
That you just got so these sales are salid Listen.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
I'm just saying that if you're gonna date, go go
to the top, Go to the top of the chain,
go right to the management team. Very attractive people. That's okay.
I'm just saying, Then uh, you know, find somebody else.
Speaker 4 (17:21):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
All right, we're taking uh, we're gonna take a break
here right now. We're going to be back with more
mojo in the morning after we get a call from
the Human Resources Department
