Speaker 1 (00:00):
All Rightie is Mojo in the morning. Hey, Shannon has
a big weekend plan. She's going away to celebrate a friend.
But you're surprising this person. This person does not know
that you're coming to visit them.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
Correct, total surprise. I haven't seen this person, and I
want to keep the details under reps because I don't
want this person to know that this is happening. But
coming into town to see this person, and I cannot
wait to see her face when she sees me.

Speaker 3 (00:31):
However, I'm a little nervous.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
And the reason is there's a piece of me that
knows she is a very busy working mom, and I
know her calendar is constantly packed, and I'm so terrified
that her husband did not plan the weekend adequately and
she's going to have like a million things to do
and just be so overwhelmed and stressed that I'm there

(00:55):
and I'm going to be more of a burden than
I am.

Speaker 3 (00:58):
A really fun surprise.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
So she has no idea that you are going to
be coming into town.

Speaker 3 (01:03):
Correct, And I'm saying the weekend.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
And it's what is it a surprise for like some
kind of is it something going on? It's a birthday
it's a birthday, so it's a big birthday, yep. And
the surprise is that you're going to be there and
you're going to be joining.

Speaker 4 (01:16):
Are there other people coming to or no?

Speaker 3 (01:18):
Yes? Yeah, I have a friend going with me.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
And then I believe there are a lot of people,
you know, a lot of her friends for around where
she lives that are going to be there.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
But this is interesting because have you ever had a
surprise party thrown for you.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
I've had surprises, but not an actual party at a party.

Speaker 1 (01:34):
I've had a surprise party thrown for me, And I'm
going to tell you something. You don't know how to
react on a surprise party, but you also don't know
how to take it when you have other ideas in
mind of what you're.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
Doing for the weekend and this is not just a party.

Speaker 3 (01:51):
Like I said, I'm there for the weekend.

Speaker 5 (01:53):
No.

Speaker 2 (01:53):
Yeah, So I just know myself and I would be
so stressed out if all of a sudden I had
people to entertain.

Speaker 3 (02:01):
For the weekend when that was not a part of
my original plan.

Speaker 1 (02:04):
Are there any listeners that have ever had a surprise
party or a surprise thrown for them or planned for them?
And you were not happy about it, Like you were
actually upset about the surprise happening. Maybe you weren't prepared
for it. Maybe maybe you were not dressed the appropriate way.
Maybe he didn't take a shower and wash your hair,
you know what I mean.

Speaker 6 (02:24):
I have a good story about one of our friends, Pops.

Speaker 4 (02:27):
Yeah, so he had.

Speaker 6 (02:29):
My grandma was throwing him a surprise party. I think
it was for his fortieth. But he didn't think that
anything was happening for him, So he was so depressed
that he would not come home that day. He went
to the bar. He got plastered at the bar drunk,
and my Grandma's like, Jerry, where are you?

Speaker 7 (02:45):
Like?

Speaker 6 (02:45):
What is going on? She has a million people at
the house right now. The man would not come because
he thought that no one was throwing him a party.
He ends up getting there and he can't even function.

Speaker 1 (02:55):
Oh god, that is, actually, by the way, really funny.
There are times where you will like I've I've thrown
or flown in Chelsea's friends for a surprise party. One
time it went great, it was awesome.

Speaker 7 (03:09):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
It was when she was turning thirty and I flew
like five or six people in her mom and all
this stuff. The other time was for her fiftieth birthday.
I flew some people in and she was not really happy.
She was not exactly wanting that, Like that was not
what she was hoping.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
For it for that right, Like the initial surprise is
going to be great, and then it's going to be
like I was supposed to do this and this and
this and this and this and all these things.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
A four four Mojoe Live A four four six sixty
five six five four eight Sean, what's going on?

Speaker 5 (03:39):
Hey, how are you, Mojo?

Speaker 1 (03:41):
I'm great, Sean. We're talking about not happy about the surprise.

Speaker 8 (03:46):
Well, you know what, I wasn't happy about the but
I didn't miss out on anything either. But what happened
was my mom threw me a surprise party. Everybody had
a good time.

Speaker 5 (03:56):
I was out drunk myself. When I got home.

Speaker 8 (03:58):
They come stumbling out, Sean, you had a really good party.

Speaker 4 (04:02):
Where were you? Wait, you weren't at the party.

Speaker 8 (04:07):
I was not at the party, but everybody had a
dog on good time at my party. Wait, because somebody
forgot to tell somebody, how did you he was a
surprise party for Did they.

Speaker 4 (04:17):
Still have the party even without you?

Speaker 5 (04:20):
You know? Alcohol and fool drinking.

Speaker 4 (04:23):
That's amazing alcohol.

Speaker 5 (04:26):
Forget this party.

Speaker 4 (04:28):
That's crazy party without me. Oh my god, that's uh,
that's awesome.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
By the way, that's funny if you throw the surprise,
like what happens Shannon, you fly to go visit and
see your friend and have this party and your friends
out with their friends not realizing what's going on.

Speaker 3 (04:44):
In the potential of that happening is big.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
Is her husband like a pretty plan He is a
terrible planner.

Speaker 3 (04:50):
Oh really, he is the worst planner.

Speaker 4 (04:53):
So maybe she what if she leaves town, what if
she goes out of town?

Speaker 2 (04:57):
But I don't think he knows their schedule or calendar
very well at all.

Speaker 3 (05:00):
So this is just really diicy.

Speaker 4 (05:02):
What's up, Amy, How you doing good?

Speaker 5 (05:04):
How are you guys today?

Speaker 4 (05:06):
Good? What's happening?

Speaker 5 (05:08):
Well? My story was twenty years ago. My husband and
I just actually celebrated our twentieth anniversary. But when we
were dating, oh my gosh, I knew something was going on.
I could tell he was acting funny. I thought he
was going to propose. And we arrived at a place
where my sister in law worked, and I thought we
were just having a dinner and he was going to
surprise me, and I walked in and my whole family

(05:31):
was there, my friend, everybody yelled surprise and I ran
to the bathroom and cried for like half an hour.

Speaker 4 (05:37):
No, what do you what was the emotion about at
that time? Explain that to me.

Speaker 5 (05:42):
I just kind of like, it just seems like we
were building up to that point. Yeah, and it was
like I just something stuck in my head. He was
gonna propose the way he was acting, it was it
was just I knew something was happening. And then when
I walked in and I realized it was just a
surprise party, I was just devastated. But it did turn

(06:03):
out that that night he asked my dad if he
could ask me to marry him.

Speaker 4 (06:06):
Oh that's sweet. So eventually it did happen.

Speaker 5 (06:09):
But actually turned out good.

Speaker 4 (06:10):
But how long did you have.

Speaker 5 (06:11):
To wait party?

Speaker 1 (06:12):
How long after the surprise party did you have to
wait for him to actually do the proposal?

Speaker 5 (06:16):
Not long? But it was actually kind of a funny story.
When he proposed, he must have gotten so nervous that
he just said, well, I want to get married.

Speaker 4 (06:27):
It was a.

Speaker 1 (06:30):
Surprise. He's a bad he's a bad proposer. What's out, Angela?
How you doing good?

Speaker 3 (06:37):
How are you guys?

Speaker 4 (06:38):
We're good? What's going on?

Speaker 9 (06:40):
So we my family owns a restaurant, and for my
mom's fiftieth birthday party, we had we had some of
our friends kind of in on the on this plan,
and we had her cater her own surprise party. And
so we walked in. It was my friend of mine
worked at a UAW hall. And you walked in, her

(07:01):
face was plastered all over the walls and everyone was
in there, and she looked at she was absolutely stunned.
She looked at my den and she goes, you will
be paying for this whole party?

Speaker 3 (07:11):
She was, you will be paying me?

Speaker 4 (07:13):
Oh my gosh, that's fine.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
So that's it's wild to think though, how family kind
of reacts to to that, Like the person that you
cannot plan a surprise party for a person that doesn't
like to be surprised.

Speaker 4 (07:26):
Yeah, and you also need to.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
Know exactly what their party is the plan for, you
know what I mean?

Speaker 4 (07:32):
Like, what is that you're gonna do? She definitely, she
loved it.

Speaker 9 (07:36):
We had a great time, and it was she was
just stunned with the whole thing that we pulled the
whole thing off because she's not easy to surprise.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
Yeah, guys are tough at planning surprise parties for girls.
Like women can pull it off like they have the
ideas down. Guys like clunky. You're a little clunky, Yes,
unless you have their friends helping you with this, which
and I don't know if your friend had the female.

Speaker 4 (08:00):
Now, what's up, Jody? Good morning, guys, Good morning. What's
going on?

Speaker 7 (08:06):
It was years ago my best friend, her mother in
law at the time now ex to mother in law,
threw her a surprise birthday for her thirtieth on the
day of Jobby Nooner, which she was out on the
water for that, oh no, and did not make it
back until almost one o'clock in the morning to the party.

(08:27):
She claimed that she was a boat was stranded, you know,
stuck out there. But she Yeah, she walked in about
one in the morning with about forty to fifty necklaces
around her planning right there. Yes, but we ended up
still partying and having fun for the arrest of what
we could.

Speaker 1 (08:46):
Yeah, that's like Pops's situation too. You get a little
two party before the party. Did you ever hear the
old it's like an urban legend about the guy that
was planning a surprise party for his wife or something,
or vice versa. Maybe the wife was planning it for
the husband, and he came home all excited that he

(09:09):
was gonna have the house completely to himself, and he
was gonna, like, I can't even say it, he was
going to rub things on his privates and he was
going to take he was going to like basically take
care of himself. And he started doing it, and everybody
jumped out in said surprise. There is a story.

Speaker 4 (09:27):
How long were they waiting, yeah, or how fast? I
don't know.

Speaker 1 (09:30):
I believe that it was actually a true story. He
got started in a car, But you got to make
sure you don't do that or walk on that when
you're coming over to a person's house and yell in
surprise
