All right, it is Mojo in the morning show. So I was golfing with a group of guys. And one of the guys was telling us a story about how after golf, he was going to go to the mall and he was going to buy something for his wife. And I said, Oh, is it her birthday? And he said, no. And I go, Oh, well, that's kind of nice. Are you in trouble or something? Because to me, whenever I think of guys buying anything, I just think of myself. So the only time you're buying is usually when you're trying to get. You walk into Lucido and you're like, what happened? Yeah, there was a year where it was a really expensive one for me. But he's like, no, no, no, he goes, you know, I go and I buy my wife her outfits. And I said, what are you talking about? And he goes, well, I go out and, you know, and I buy her, you know, jeans and, you know, sweater shirts, whatever. The whole deal is going through the whole thing. I'm like, really? Like, I'm sitting there, you know, it's funny because you got to force them, right? So you got three guys are there. One guy's telling you this. The other two guys are going and the other three guys are me and are going, what the hell? So they were going out that night and they were going out with some friends and she was looking for something to wear. So afterwards, he was going out to buy something for her and he knew her size. He knew what colors she looked good in. He knew everything. And I look at the other guys and I go, guys, is this crazy? And they all look like my wife. There's no way my wife. Actually, one guy has a girlfriend and he's like, there's no way that she would want me to do this. And I thought the same thing with Chelsea. Like, there is no way in hell that if I went to the store and said, or if I had a, you know, Chelsea, I'll pick your outfit out for tonight. You know what it would sound like? It would be like, you know what I mean? Or it would be like, there's no way that I am letting you pick out what I'm going to wear tonight or trust that you're going to pick something out. And he says that he does it all the time. And actually, I have seen him with his wife before. And they're a great looking couple. Like, they're both mid 30s or late 30s. And I'm like, holy crap. She actually does dress nice. Like she's, you know, and he's her fashion coordinator. This guy who is a mortgage guy that works for, I think, UWM is the company that he works with. And he's like picking her clothes out. And so I'm thinking to myself, yay or nay on this one here. Would you trust your guy? Like Shannon, would you trust Wes, who's a very nice human being? But does he have an eye for fashion? I mean, I buy the majority of Wes's clothes for him lately. I think he gets my style, but I don't know. I don't trust him. I don't know. If he said to you, hey, we're going to go out on Saturday night. Let me go to the store and let me go to the, you know, wherever and I'm going to buy you your outfit. I think I would tell him a store and then I would trust him. And you'd call ahead to the store and say, okay, I'm down. Go to this store, though. Side note, why are you buying all of his clothes now? Did you not like the way he dresses? No, I know. I thought you were going to say he has good style and I was going to take credit because I buy a lot of his clothes for him. Oh, it's just fun. Yeah, you like doing that. Yeah. See, I don't think he's ever bought me clothes to be honest with you. I don't think he's ever bought me clothes. I mean, he's bought me like lingerie and shoes, but I don't think he's ever bought me clothes. You were lingerie? I actually do. I did have a girlfriend though, a long time ago. I haven't talked to her in forever. And she was just a tomboy and she hated shopping. And so same thing, her husband did all of the shopping for her and their two kids. Her step kids. Yeah. Okay. So, um, Kevin Mike, do you think Mike, do you think Ali would be okay with this or Cav? Do you think Cheryl would be okay with it? Do you want to hear something interesting? I think she she's actually suggested it before, but I don't think she understands that I wouldn't buy her this adorable cute outfit. It would be something where her boobs are out or like a really, like it's not going to be what she thinks it is at all. But she's she said it before we could get an outfit and pick one out for me. Like, if I really, any have you done it? No, because it's not going to be what she thinks it is. It's not going to be, I mean, I will, I guess, but it'll be this skimpy, tiny little thing that I'm only planning on taking off the second I see her in it. That's it. Right. Well, then buy your lingerie. Yeah, I guess I could do that. I never thought of that. Oh, would you even know it? Would you even know what Cheryl sizes? Because I don't know what Chelsea sizes. I feel like I can like look at somebody and buy the thing that'll fit. Okay. So, like, I was confident of a man who has never had to shop in women's clothing where there is zero consistency. I've bought her things before and they fit. Really? I've also, so it's like three different things. So, I've bought Cheryl things in a fit that she's absolutely loved. We've walked through them all together and I've pointed stuff out. She's like, hell no, I never wear that. Yeah. And then the third thing is like she likes to wear my clothes sometimes. Okay. She wants to throw on like a T shirt and some sneakers or some joggers. Like she'll take some of my stuff and put together an outfit. Which is hot, by the way, when killing it. Kenyatta. What do you think about this? Would you let your man buy your clothes? Hey, Mojo. Yeah. Before my husband pants, he bought my outfit before we went out a few times. Really? And did he do a good job? Yeah. He did a great job. He had an eye for you, huh? He had an eye for fashion? Yeah. How do you know your size? Because that's the thing. Whenever I've bought Chelsea anything, I've had to go to her friend Monica and say Monica. What the hell is up? And Monica has picked out stuff. But, but I want to buy her some stuff from Lulu Lemon. So I went into her closet and just like literally grabbed Lulu Lemon out of her closet and brought it into the store and said, here, can you help me with this? What's going on, Brittany? Hey, guys. Oh, my God. So good to talk to you all. Oh, it's nice to talk to you too. How are you doing? Good. Just on my way to work. I wanted to call in a bunch of guys. No, every year for my birthday, my husband would take me out, like, find me an outfit for, you know, our special occasion, special date, but we were three kids and he definitely knew my size. But she does not know it anymore. Oh, yeah. No, it's okay. So he would take you out to buy it, but would you pick it out? Yeah, for the most part, I mean, yeah, give some direction if you wanted me an address or whatever, but it was sweet. It was a good thought. I loved it. Yeah, like, I, there are times actually interesting. There are times where Chelsea has said, Hey, how do I look in this and, and she's let me go. You know what? I like, or which one do you like better? Should I have two shoes and she'll say, which one do you think looks better? Yeah, which gives me some confidence. Like, Oh, God, she actually does still care about, like, my opinion on this thing. And then, always, no matter 30 years of marriage or three, we always care. Yeah. And then there's a difference between that and if I went to this, like, honestly, I wouldn't know what store to go to. Like, I would have no favorite stores where she shops. I have no idea where she buys stuff because I know she buys. No, she buys. She buys. Well, she buys on online a lot. So she buys stuff online and I see boxes that will come in, but I wouldn't know if I was going to go to, like, Oh, this is one that she would go to. Like, I do know that she's got, you know, certain stories like window shopping too. If you saw something and you're like, Hey, that would look really great on you. Let's go in and check it out. Yeah. Hold on. It's Kenyatta back with us. Kenyatta. I just talked to you just a second. Go to night. Yeah. Yeah. I made a mistake. I'm hung up. I'm sorry. No, okay. I think I would. Do you have any other words that you want to say? Oh, no, that was it. Oh, thank you. All right. We'll talk to you later. Have a great day. Kenyatta. We love you. What's up, DJ? Hey, guys. Are you good DJ? What do you think? Would you have confidence enough enough to do this? Well, believe it or not, I'm a wedding planner and I own my own business. So I have a really good story. The last year. Okay. The, so I had a client was getting married over at the one of the yachts in Detroit and the family was a split. So what nation? So once the female family was from Canada male family was in the U.S. However, though, they were very, very traditional on the female side. So the female shows everything in the male is war, which is normal. However, though. However, though, the male family chose everything that females were. So that included the wedding dress and the rising. So that was really. So did the bride even like her dress? Oh, my gosh. She absolutely had a blast with it. Believe it or not, they loved it. They loved it because it was kind of a bond. They called a bonding experience. I thought that was so cool. They didn't even have, they had their first look right down the aisle of the wedding. So they didn't know specifically what they were going to look like together. They were just imagining the aspect of, Oh, you're going to look so dashing in this and she's going to look really good in that. And surprisingly, they didn't know what colors they were going to choose at that point in time. So they actually did pretty well match. That's wild. That is, I'm very impressed. Yeah, that's, that's brave. Very great. With how expensive a wedding is, I have to be in control of every detail. Could you imagine, by the way, if you got married to me and had to wear the stuff that I wear or pick out? I thought I just died. I was so scared. I saw the light and everything just started sounding like I was underwater. Lisa's husband picks out all of her clothes. Oh my God, Lisa. Lisa, Lisa question. Are you blind? Hello. Don't listen to your radio, Lisa, it's your phone. Are you visually impaired? And that's the reason why he's picking out your clothes? No, not at all. You let this man pick your clothes out. What the hell is going on, Lisa? Yes, he's just a classy guy. Unless his name is Ralph Lauren or Tom Ford. You know what I mean? No, it was started out with our anniversary and around the first or second year we were married. I came downstairs and he had gone to my favorite. So I'm a plus-sized woman, so I love a particular store. And I thought it was really cute. He had gone to that store and laid out like some dressers and jackets and all these pretty clothes, you know, downstairs in the living room. And I was like, wow, this is nice. Like, I was surprised, honestly. And then it just kind of every year from there, he would just periodically, you know, every so often, you know, maybe once a month go pick out a new dress or a new outfit. And I'll come, you know, home from work or whatever, and it'll be hanging up there for me and he'll put a little note on it. I hope you love this as much as I love seeing you in it. Okay, so that was really fun. There are times that I haven't maybe loved the outfit or the color, you know, but I love that he picked it. So I probably rock it. I hold his arm. We go out and go to a little concert or downtown, you know, jazz festival, whatnot. And I rock it because I know that it was something he wanted to see me as a person. I want to impresses the man who I arm. Sam, I'm thinking a dress. I'm thinking a dress that just said with a note that says what that booty do. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. You know, it's funny, but Ali would probably love that. I mean, a lot. I mean, you always complain, you know, if they, you know, spend money on things that you don't need or that you don't want, you know, the first couple of years I got like a blender and a roasting pan and I'll wait. No, not for my anniversary, you know. Wow, the guy that gave you a blender and a roasting pan is now picking out your clothing and doing it right. It's nice to know that guys can turn their stuff around. - Right.
