Speaker 1 (00:00):
God, I'm so tired.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
I know, I know, we just keep onto each other.
Speaker 1 (00:06):
You can't do it. I told Zach already.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
If Zach comes in here ever again and says all
I want is a bed, I'm going to punch him
and he's going to need a hospital bed.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
That's what he's going to need.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
Because I don't even want to think about being tired,
because once I do, I'm done, and I got to
I got to drive home too.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
I don't want to sound like this, but.
Speaker 4 (00:34):
Are you about to get crotchety?
Speaker 3 (00:35):
I'm gonna get crashedy. Zach's talking to me in my
ears right now. Just come in studio, Zach, so we
can all have a family meeting. Family meeting time. I'm
going to get not crotchety. But I feel bad that
yesterday I did this whole crapping on our Christmas party,
you know, and and how the Christmas party is?
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Uh is here?
Speaker 3 (00:53):
I want to do a topic if I can, about
have you ever gone to a person's house for any
kind of a party and they didn't have either enough
food or any food, or they did not have any
alcoholic beverages. Like literally, you go to their house sometimes
(01:15):
in the summertime. This happens more. It's a deck crawl
party and they go, I got water. Would you like
a water? Or they offer you chocolate milk or milk
or juice.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Or or dish. You would love that. I love chocolate milk.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
So I felt like last night I went to a
person's party and they had nothing. They they didn't make
enough food, like I felt like it was. They went
to Kroger and they bought the small charcuterie board or
fruit plate.
Speaker 5 (01:52):
And that was what we were talking about at LCA
or here, because I saw both of the food spreads
and I thought both of them were pretty good.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Where was the food at LCA? So they had a bus,
separate room catering catering.
Speaker 6 (02:05):
You had to go across the hall, like past the
stage into like the artists, and then you get like
a little ticket that you were supposed to hand over
and okay, all the food.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Can we have a conversation?
Speaker 3 (02:17):
Absolutely, We are the biggest broadcast entertainment company in the world.
Where iHeartMedia. This is Bob Pittman, the man who created
MTV and VH one. The guy said he created the
You Got Mail for AOL. He brought twenty What is
it century twenty one? Reality out of bankruptcy?
Speaker 4 (02:38):
Is iHeartMedia Guaranteed Human Exactly.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
We don't do little tickets. We go big.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
I actually was catering and I had zero ticket.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
I just walked in there. You did. Well.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
Let me tell you something. I this is what I
envision and listen. If I've got to take a pay cut,
I'll take a pay cut for this. I envision when
we jingle Ball that we should have what it was
the first couple of years where we had that little
area where we have listeners that get a chance to,
you know, go backstage. We got clients that hang out,
(03:13):
Like I'm tired of coming to the radio station for
client parties. I want to have it all at jingle
Ball and I want this. I want the bar open.
I want at least some kind of salamis or cheeses,
something like that.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Give me something that tiede me over because it's a
long side we get wing.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Or the puffy cheese things that they have, those little
cheesy triangle things.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Okay, so, but but let me explain this to you.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
What it does is it sends a message to the artist.
Look at these guys and when there's food. Guess where
the artists go. They go buy the food and the
drink and then they hang out out. So they do
the interviews with us, and then I say to them,
would you like a wing ding?
Speaker 1 (04:05):
Mister Brent from Shine Out, I don't.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Know it, just thought that was just a fun A
pig and a blanket, like a like a wing on
the bone, like kick like a wing like like I
this is what I think. I think, And like, have
you ever have you ever been blessed enough to get
invited to go into a suite at a an event?
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Amazing? I've been in sweets before.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
And David Hall used to do this all the time,
and shout out to David Hall, I haven't talked to
you in forever, and boyd you should be advertising with us, David,
because I miss you. David Hall used to invite me
to his suite at Comerica Park and nobody put a
better food spread on than d Hall.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
It was the most amazing thing ever.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
Then I get invited to go to and I won't
say the name of the guy because it's his company,
his suite, and he literally had two little Caesar's pizzas
and a couple of pepsis.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Oh no, no, And I'm like, that ain't a sweet.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
If you're getting a sweet, you gotta go all out.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
You gotta get bottle service. That part your eyes got
so big.
Speaker 4 (05:09):
Did we have a sweet last night? Somebody said that
I heart had a sweet last night.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Because parents were in a suite, but I don't know.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
It was ours really quick.
Speaker 6 (05:17):
To be fair, little Caesar's pizzas are just a little
more expensive at the venue, so that was an expensive
two pizzas.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
That's fourteen dollars. I'm sorry, Zach, So you didn't eat
it last night. I didn't need anything. I ate in
the dots.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
No. I well, like, first off, I got to the
station party at five thirty, and then I had to
leave at six thirty to get over to the venue
so I could be there by the seven twenty time
or whatever it was. So we didn't eat it all.
We got downtown. I was there, I said to Chelsea,
I go, I they literally I have to go to
the concession stand on this on the third floor or
whatever it is, and go up there and get food.
(05:54):
If I wanted food, I asked Josh Innes I go, Josh,
you got a beer in your hand. Where'd you get?
He goes, I went to the concession stand a bus
teen dollars beer. I'm like, I gotta buy a fifteen
dollars freakin bear.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
Yeah, because I think the catering and and everything closed
before the show even started, so you wouldn't have made
it entime anyway.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
But I but here's the thing, and this is this
is literally no.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
Reflection on Tony Torvado, because I know Tony likes to
do things well. But Tony, this isn't a Milford party.
This is a downtown Detroit party.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Milford's catching straight.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
You got we got to pull out the old company
credit card, and we got to make this. I guarantee
you that the Z one hundred jingle ball has food.
I guarantee you wings. I know, I bet you they
got No, they don't do wing dings. You know what
they do in New York fancy food. They've got a
little like little sandwiches. Do you ever have a little sandwich?
Speaker 1 (06:47):
I've never.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
I'm not the real teeny sandwiches. You hold them with
two fingers and not the whole hands.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
He's out. You can do it if you'd like, Oh.
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Yes, you should want to be your first snack because
you know what I did. I was smart, I felt.
I patted myself on the back last night. I always
get so hungry and the way home from jingle ball
and I always stop at whatever fast foods open. It's
usually talk about every year, and then I wake up
feeling even crappier than I feel this morning. So yesterday
at catering, I saw that they had the all the
makings for peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Did you see
me doing it?
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (07:15):
And so I made myself. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
So I made myself a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
I wrapped it in a napkin.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
I took a can of coke and some pretzels and
I'm like this, and I put it in my bag
for my riding.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Makings of a peanut butter and jelly catering.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
We invited Nelly to come to this event and we
offered him a chance to make his own peanut butter.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
And jelly sound it was delicious. At twelve forty in
the morning, I'm so embarrassed.
Speaker 5 (07:41):
Let me say, I noticed that Shannon is a jingle
ball professional. She came with a different set of shoes
by the time we were off stage, she was in
her pajamas.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
What bugs had this? Uh pebn J. I was like,
I'm taking notes for next year. You're a professional.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
I asked the lady from Little Caesars. I go, hey,
if I gave you my credit card and started an account,
can we get food brought down here?
Speaker 1 (08:03):
The lady looked at me like I was crazy. She goes,
I'm security and I said, well, can I grab something
off there?
Speaker 3 (08:09):
If I can take something out? Because they had booze
behind the bar. Because the area that we were for
anybody that has the fun seats at Pistons or Red
Wings games, it was that really nice area where like
the players locker rooms are walking some years some years
that was open. Well, we used to pay for that stuff,
but we don't do it anymore. And I'm telling you
next year, I'll put it on my credit card. If
I have to, don't say those it will be my
(08:31):
Christmas present everybody, because I don't want the artists to
walk away going yeah. I got a bag of pretzels
and a freakin wa I had changed no. I had
channing open four bottles of water for me because there
was no click.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
We got to talk about this. There's a whole table.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
There was a table with bottled water, and then there
were like there were like candy, like bowls of candy. Okay,
so there's probably a hundred waters on this table. And
Moja opens one and then I see him put it down,
doesn't even take a sip. So then he opens another one,
puts it down, doesn't take a sip. By finally look
at him and he goes the water's not it's not
making a click, like the cap isn't clicking when you
open it. And he goes open a water and tell
(09:09):
me if it clicks, because I'm not drinking it. If
it doesn't care, None of the waters clicked.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
Little Caesar's Arena was refilling waters up for us. They
were giving us absolutely pers that were absolutely not pure.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
What's up, Joe?
Speaker 4 (09:23):
Hi?
Speaker 1 (09:23):
How you doing good?
Speaker 7 (09:25):
How are you guys doing doing?
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Okay, Joe, have you ever been to a party where
there was no food? Well?
Speaker 7 (09:31):
Actually, uh, funny enough. This year, me and my fiance
decided to host Thanksgiving because of a you know, my
aunt passed away, and you know it's just kind of
a different year. Okay, So we had it at our
house and we didn't even realize, you know, it was
inviting my mom, dad, you know, my other aunt, my brother,
(09:54):
his fiance over. You know, we were like, oh shoot,
we didn't even go buy any like beer or wine
or I mean, we had you know what we have
and you know in our fridge. But you know, I'm
not one of those guys that had like four cases
of beer, you know in their fridge.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
That was everybody put off by this one. Was everybody
thinking that the memory of your beautiful aunt has gone
for not because you did not have the appropriate party
stuff pleasures.
Speaker 7 (10:26):
No, but they you know, they my family. You know,
they're if they make fun of you or kind of
say something, you know, it's we're like that type of family.
And we're Italians.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
Okay, that's unusual. Italians always have plenty of food and drink.
You must, you must be a bad Italian.
Speaker 7 (10:42):
Food just not the drink. We had the food drink.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
So, Joe, are Joey or Joey or Joe either or
all right, I'll call you Joe.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
I'll call you Joe because you sound like a nice guy.
So Joey, you cannot invite people over to your house
and not have beverages. You got to think of the
beverages unless you do a b yo b and they
have to go bring their own drinks.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
But at least give me a heads up that I
need to do that and grab something.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Yeah you got there's a party store on every corner.
Speaker 7 (11:16):
Well not in Birmingham.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Come on in Birmingham, Jesus, Oh.
Speaker 7 (11:21):
My god, I'm fourteen miles.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
There's only so many.
Speaker 7 (11:24):
But I mean, you know, are you a guy?
Speaker 3 (11:26):
Are you a guy that shouldn't be living in Birmingham?
You're paying too much money for your place and you
can't afford the uh the the party at Koutrama.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Oh no, we can definitely afford it. Yeah, there's a Kroger.
Speaker 4 (11:39):
In Birmingham and Kruger is one of the most affordable
places to buy wine. And that is coming from a
friend of mine who works for a wine distributor.
Speaker 7 (11:45):
Well, I absolutely agree with you, because you know, I
make my own red wine with my uncle and my
fiance loves the Chloe Pino Gradio.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
So okay, good one.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
Well, Joey, here's what's going to happen.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
And you know that you're the person or you know
family that doesn't have enough food.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
If you ever see people come to your house and.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
They are bringing a boatload of food to your house, saying, oh,
I'll never come here empty handed. They're coming there full
handed because they're going to starve if they come to
your house and they depend on you.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
Oh, they don't starve.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
They just go thirsty, exactly if they're drinking from the
hose outside.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
They want some beverages, You get a cup.
Speaker 7 (12:33):
You get a cup, here's.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Your name on it.
Speaker 5 (12:39):
You only get one.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
By the way, it reminds me we have a guy
guy I won't say his last name, but Chad, who
was an old neighbor of ours, and he would invite
us over to his place. And this is no joke.
There was enough food for just each person that was there.
There was not like a second helping. So in you
(13:00):
know me, like I'm a big guy, and so we
would go up to make the plate and I would
grab my food and Chelsea would go, hey, you can't
take two, you know breasts. I go, what do you mean,
they're small? And she goes count the breast. So I'm
counting the breast and there were like eight of us,
and I'm like one, two, three, four, five.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Six, seven eight. I had to give it to Chelsea.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Chelsea gets the short end of the.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
Like, it's like, how do you go? How do you
make it? You know, we always have so much food.
There's so much stuff there, Amanda. What's going on?
Speaker 1 (13:35):
Hi?
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Hi, good morning guys.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Morning.
Speaker 8 (13:39):
I actually, I actually just had a birthday party for
my cat.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
I know, don't I already know?
Speaker 4 (13:45):
But we provided a ton of food.
Speaker 8 (13:47):
There was cake, there was free boost.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Like, you're not like a host if you don't provide things.
I'm sorry that happened you, guys.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
You had a birthday party for your cat. Let's go
back to that for a second.
Speaker 4 (14:00):
Yes, she turned seven.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
She's the most beautiful little kiddy.
Speaker 1 (14:03):

a bunch of wings stop for everybody, a bunch of sides.

Speaker 1 (14:31):
What's up, Courtney? How you doing?
Speaker 7 (14:34):
Hi?
Speaker 8 (14:34):
Good morning Mojo. You need to be playing like the
burging and entering background music. You need like a sad
violin playing behind this.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Oh yes, I do.
Speaker 8 (14:46):
I think it's kind of insulting that you didn't get
like this is your big year, your Hall of Famer,
this is your year. I think it's kind of insulting
they didn't give you like a Christmas party, like at least.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
Food corny, I'm telling you, And it's yeah, it's it's
only going to get worse. It seems like I'm in
twenty twenty six. I may be writing a letter to
breaking and entering Christmas wish on this one, and maybe
you do you know what that could be that could
be happening soon. I promise I will. I'll buy the
food next time. If that's the case, I'll buy the food.
Speaker 4 (15:18):
Okay, remember yesterday you volunteered to chair the holiday party
as well.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
I believe me it is, so don't bite up more
than you can choose her and I will be the
jingle Ball committee too,
God, I'm so tired.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
I know, I know, we just keep onto each other.
Speaker 1 (00:06):
You can't do it. I told Zach already.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
If Zach comes in here ever again and says all
I want is a bed, I'm going to punch him
and he's going to need a hospital bed.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
That's what he's going to need.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
Because I don't even want to think about being tired,
because once I do, I'm done, and I got to

is literally no.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
Reflection on Tony Torvado, because I know Tony likes to
do things well. But Tony, this isn't a Milford party.
This is a downtown Detroit party.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Milford's catching straight.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
You got we got to pull out the old company
credit card, and we got to make this. I guarantee
you that the Z one hundred jingle ball has food.
I guarantee you wings. I know, I bet you they
got No, they don't do wing dings. You know what
they do in New York fancy food. They've got a
little like little sandwiches. Do you ever have a little sandwich?
Speaker 1 (06:47):
I've never.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
I'm not the real teeny sandwiches. You hold them with
two fingers and not the whole hands.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
He's out. You can do it if you'd like, Oh.
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Yes, you should want to be your first snack because
you know what I did. I was smart, I felt.
I patted myself on the back last night. I always
get so hungry and the way home from jingle ball
and I always stop at whatever fast foods open. It's
usually talk about every year, and then I wake up
feeling even crappier than I feel this morning. So yesterday
at catering, I saw that they had the all the
makings for peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Did you see
me doing it?
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (07:15):
And so I made myself. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
So I made myself a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
I wrapped it in a napkin.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
I took a can of coke and some pretzels and
I'm like this, and I put it in my bag
for my riding.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Makings of a peanut butter and jelly catering.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
We invited Nelly to come to this event and we
offered him a chance to make his own peanut butter.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
And jelly sound it was delicious. At twelve forty in
the morning, I'm so embarrassed.
Speaker 5 (07:41):
Let me say, I noticed that Shannon is a jingle
ball professional. She came with a different set of shoes
by the time we were off stage, she was in
her pajamas.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
What bugs had this? Uh pebn J. I was like,
I'm taking notes for next year. You're a professional.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
I asked the lady from Little Caesars. I go, hey,
if I gave you my credit card and started an account,
can we get food brought down here?
Speaker 1 (08:03):
The lady looked at me like I was crazy. She goes,
I'm security and I said, well, can I grab something
off there?
Speaker 3 (08:09):
If I can take something out? Because they had booze
behind the bar. Because the area that we were for
anybody that has the fun seats at Pistons or Red
Wings games, it was that really nice area where like
the players locker rooms are walking some years some years
that was open. Well, we used to pay for that stuff,
but we don't do it anymore. And I'm telling you
next year, I'll put it on my credit card. If
I have to, don't say those it will be my
(08:31):
Christmas present everybody, because I don't want the artists to
walk away going yeah. I got a bag of pretzels
and a freakin wa I had changed no. I had
channing open four bottles of water for me because there
was no click.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
We got to talk about this. There's a whole table.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
There was a table with bottled water, and then there
were like there were like candy, like bowls of candy. Okay,
so there's probably a hundred waters on this table. And
Moja opens one and then I see him put it down,
doesn't even take a sip. So then he opens another one,
puts it down, doesn't take a sip. By finally look
at him and he goes the water's not it's not
making a click, like the cap isn't clicking when you
open it. And he goes open a water and tell
(09:09):
me if it clicks, because I'm not drinking it. If
it doesn't care, None of the waters clicked.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
Little Caesar's Arena was refilling waters up for us. They
were giving us absolutely pers that were absolutely not pure.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
What's up, Joe?
Speaker 4 (09:23):
Hi?
Speaker 1 (09:23):
How you doing good?
Speaker 7 (09:25):
How are you guys doing doing?
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Okay, Joe, have you ever been to a party where
there was no food? Well?
Speaker 7 (09:31):
Actually, uh, funny enough. This year, me and my fiance
decided to host Thanksgiving because of a you know, my
aunt passed away, and you know it's just kind of
a different year. Okay, So we had it at our
house and we didn't even realize, you know, it was
inviting my mom, dad, you know, my other aunt, my brother,
(09:54):
his fiance over. You know, we were like, oh shoot,
we didn't even go buy any like beer or wine
or I mean, we had you know what we have
and you know in our fridge. But you know, I'm
not one of those guys that had like four cases
of beer, you know in their fridge.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
That was everybody put off by this one. Was everybody
thinking that the memory of your beautiful aunt has gone
for not because you did not have the appropriate party
stuff pleasures.
Speaker 7 (10:26):
No, but they you know, they my family. You know,
they're if they make fun of you or kind of
say something, you know, it's we're like that type of family.
And we're Italians.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
Okay, that's unusual. Italians always have plenty of food and drink.
You must, you must be a bad Italian.
Speaker 7 (10:42):
Food just not the drink. We had the food drink.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
So, Joe, are Joey or Joey or Joe either or
all right, I'll call you Joe.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
I'll call you Joe because you sound like a nice guy.
So Joey, you cannot invite people over to your house
and not have beverages. You got to think of the
beverages unless you do a b yo b and they
have to go bring their own drinks.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
But at least give me a heads up that I
need to do that and grab something.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Yeah you got there's a party store on every corner.
Speaker 7 (11:16):
Well not in Birmingham.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Come on in Birmingham, Jesus, Oh.
Speaker 7 (11:21):
My god, I'm fourteen miles.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
There's only so many.
Speaker 7 (11:24):
But I mean, you know, are you a guy?
Speaker 3 (11:26):
Are you a guy that shouldn't be living in Birmingham?
You're paying too much money for your place and you
can't afford the uh the the party at Koutrama.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Oh no, we can definitely afford it. Yeah, there's a Kroger.
Speaker 4 (11:39):
In Birmingham and Kruger is one of the most affordable
places to buy wine. And that is coming from a
friend of mine who works for a wine distributor.
Speaker 7 (11:45):
Well, I absolutely agree with you, because you know, I
make my own red wine with my uncle and my
fiance loves the Chloe Pino Gradio.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
So okay, good one.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
Well, Joey, here's what's going to happen.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
And you know that you're the person or you know
family that doesn't have enough food.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
If you ever see people come to your house and.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
They are bringing a boatload of food to your house, saying, oh,
I'll never come here empty handed. They're coming there full
handed because they're going to starve if they come to
your house and they depend on you.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
Oh, they don't starve.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
They just go thirsty, exactly if they're drinking from the
hose outside.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
They want some beverages, You get a cup.
Speaker 7 (12:33):
You get a cup, here's.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Your name on it.
Speaker 5 (12:39):
You only get one.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
By the way, it reminds me we have a guy
guy I won't say his last name, but Chad, who
was an old neighbor of ours, and he would invite
us over to his place. And this is no joke.
There was enough food for just each person that was there.
There was not like a second helping. So in you
(13:00):
know me, like I'm a big guy, and so we
would go up to make the plate and I would
grab my food and Chelsea would go, hey, you can't
take two, you know breasts. I go, what do you mean,
they're small? And she goes count the breast. So I'm
counting the breast and there were like eight of us,
and I'm like one, two, three, four, five.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Six, seven eight. I had to give it to Chelsea.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Chelsea gets the short end of the.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
Like, it's like, how do you go? How do you
make it? You know, we always have so much food.
There's so much stuff there, Amanda. What's going on?
Speaker 1 (13:35):
Hi?
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Hi, good morning guys.
Speaker 1 (13:38):

my cat.
Speaker 2 (13:43):

Speaker 4 (13:45):
But we provided a ton of food.
Speaker 8 (13:47):
There was cake, there was free boost.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Like, you're not like a host if you don't provide things.

Speaker 3 (13:54):
You had a birthday party for your cat. Let's go
back to that for a second.
Speaker 4 (14:00):

Speaker 7 (14:34):
Hi?
Speaker 8 (14:34):
Good morning Mojo. You need to be playing like the
burging and entering background music. You need like a sad
violin playing behind this.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Oh yes, I do.
Speaker 8 (14:46):
I think it's kind of insulting that you didn't get
like this is your big year, your Hall of Famer,
this is your year. I think it's kind of insulting
they didn't give you like a Christmas party, like at least.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
Food corny, I'm telling you, And it's yeah, it's it's
only going to get worse. It seems like I'm in
twenty twenty six. I may be writing a letter to
breaking and entering Christmas wish on this one, and maybe
you do you know what that could be that could
be happening soon. I promise I will. I'll buy the
food next time. If that's the case, I'll buy the food.
Speaker 4 (15:18):
Okay, remember yesterday you volunteered to chair the holiday party
as well.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
I believe me it is, so don't bite up more
than you can choose her and I will be the
jingle Ball committee too,
