My mom was in there, Uncle Paul was in there.
Great to see Uncle Paul battling cancer. That's the first
time I seen him in a very long time. Yeah.

So the whole family was out there, and then my
cousin show out to Gerardi. I know, he brought it

(00:31):
to my birthday, him and Casey. So Gerard text me
church started at eleven. Gerard ain't pull up the church.
So Gerard text was like, yo.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
Say wait, is that your way of selling him out
that he didn't go to I mean, you know, to church,
Like you didn't need to bring that out.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
I think you did.

Speaker 1 (00:44):
I'd just like to have full context.

Speaker 3 (00:46):
So so, so Gerard didn't come to church, so he
had to text me and say, hey, slide by, we
have a family dinner at five. So in my mom
I'm like, okay, you didn't have breakfast this morning. You
got up, went straight to church. We're not going to
eat anything, and we're going to pig out at five
pm once we get to family dinner. That was my plan,
plan executed to perfection. I show up to family dinner

(01:07):
maybe five, five ten, walking in through the garage because
it was up through the garage.

Speaker 1 (01:13):
There's the kitchen. All the food is laid out.

Speaker 2 (01:15):
What kind of food are we talking about?

Speaker 1 (01:16):
I'm talking.

Speaker 3 (01:17):
We got chicken wings that are to die for, hot, spicy,
just like I like them. Okay, rice greens with the
bacon in their turkey meeting them joints. They got turkey
legs on there. He got some type of beef situation,
macaradi and cheese greens. Like the spread is spreading. So
I walk in, I say hi, I'm in the kitchen.

(01:39):
I grab a plate bond, plate field to the nines going.
The room is playoffs on, so I'm watching the game.
Smash my first plate bond, go back into the kitchen,
get my second plate ready to go. Second one look
like the first, and it's got a little bit more
chicken wings on this one. The first time you eat,
you kind of get a little of everything that I

(01:59):
say that we have.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
Yea, then you get a lot of what you like.

Speaker 1 (02:03):
You said it was like built like a pyramid. First off,
you guys keep throwing them off back. Where are we
going with us? Where are we going? What'd you do?
I had to plate a fool bang bang, the second
plate out? Bang?

Speaker 3 (02:16):
Did I rest a little bit going to the kitchen
to reload for a third and then my aunty in there.
She's like, oh, going back again for another plate. I'm like, yeah,
I'm hungry. She's like, hmm, You're really hungry, aren't you.
And then it starts a conversation of like how many
plates can I have at the function?

Speaker 1 (02:32):
And I'm like, as many as I have.

Speaker 3 (02:34):
The food is here for us to eat, right, That's
what I'm saying, Taylor, a limit how many plates I'm
supposed to Your.

Speaker 4 (02:39):
Auntie was shaming you because you had three plates a
little bit. See, I hosted yesterday and we have so
much leftover food. I should have called you because I
think that you eat until the food is gone. You
are entitled to as many plates as you want until
the food is.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
But maybe Auntie wanted to have some leftovers for the week.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
Well then she should put aside after everybody has.

Speaker 1 (03:02):
Maybe more plate, but maybe more people were coming. We
don't know. It could have been more people showing up.
It wasn't a big function like that. Or it's not
auntie house. It's not your house.

Speaker 3 (03:10):
Just because you're an eldered only you can control how
many plates.

Speaker 1 (03:13):
I get you're going to tell her that. No, I
know you're not going to tell her that. How many
people were there, it was like maybe eight.

Speaker 4 (03:21):
They had all already had their first plate, and maybe second.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
The last one was there. Maybe maybe she's worried about
your health. I mean, you know, look at how fat
you up. Maybe maybe there's a little bit of Auntie working.
It's none of that. It was I saw your mom
in the picture. I said, Grammar, they didn't come. They
didn't come here. They didn't So you were eating for
them too, or I was eating for myself.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
I told you we wait the whole time you get
a little happy with these fats.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
Those we're gonna see what happened. Give me give me gone? Wait? Wait,
where where is I number? I want to call on Gerard?

Speaker 4 (04:06):
Sorry, Gerard, the same person, no separate pece.

Speaker 2 (04:11):
I to think about that. For a second.

Speaker 1 (04:13):
No, no, not all black people look the same, Michael,
different people.

Speaker 4 (04:22):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (04:23):
So said that you can have a max of two plates,
he said, agreed, and this included if you have to
go places.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
Agreed, agreed, disagree.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
I thought I had Gerard's number in my phone.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
There is putting the food away. You are welcome to
that food.

Speaker 1 (04:40):
And your first plate should be small.

Speaker 2 (04:42):
What absolutely if you scoop.

Speaker 5 (04:45):
Up like a ton. You said mac and cheese, right,
mac and cheese can be very hit or miss in
my culture.

Speaker 1 (04:51):
All right, you know what I mean every time, but
a real big miss.

Speaker 5 (04:57):
So if you pile up your plate and then you
throw away that giant pile of macaroni, oh yeah, you're
the bad guy. You got to do a small plate first.
You gotta taste test everything. You see what's good, you
gotta see what's bad. And then your second plate, which
is your only allowable extra plate, is just the good
stuff piled up to where you're going to be full.

Speaker 1 (05:15):
You eat until you are eating weight too much, and
I'm worried about you. You get diabetes in your family.
I do not want to have diabetes happening on the show.
I don't want I don't want to say diseases. No,
I know you have diabetes in the Come on, we
all do Gerard got umber? Yeah, I got Grard's number.

(05:40):
We went golfing, so I got you. I told you no.
No hold on Gerard, by the way, why do we go?
I remember that he goes by a different name. Hold on,
hold on at the town. Please record your message is.
When you have finished recording, you may hang up or
press one for more options. Gerard, it's Mojo. I need

(06:02):
you to call us stat We need to find out
what we can do for our friend Kevin. He's eating
way too much at the family functions, and I know
that Auntie is not going to be happy about that.
So can you call us back? Please? Thank you. Donnie
wants to make a comment. What's going on, Donnie? Hey,
good morning, Good morning Donnie. What's up? keV?

Speaker 3 (06:24):
Is the reason why his family has a limit for Thanksgiving?

Speaker 1 (06:28):
Yeah? Is there? Kevin? How many plates did you have
a Thanksgiving? Remember that's a lost stop. What's the rule? Well,
but you can't. You can't just keep going up to
the buffet. Why the food is there?

Speaker 3 (06:45):
Like we just throw it away or they gonna put
it in a refrigerator left over for a few days
and then throw it away after nobody won't see.

Speaker 2 (06:50):
Yep, that's exactly what happens, do you guys.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
I don't know if you remember this. This radio show
got kicked out one time Donnie at the Chinese Buffet
and Nov we went up to so many times did
they literally put a ban on Mojo in the Morning
show meetings at the Chinese Buffet? Those were the greatest
buffets avertar.

Speaker 5 (07:11):
That's the place where you can get eight plates, eight
small plates.

Speaker 1 (07:14):
Well, that's the problem. Their plates were not big enough, right,
So that was a little bit of a problem. That's fair.

Speaker 3 (07:18):
Now again, this is my family. If I come to
one of y'all's house, there are different rules. You don't
eat the same outside the house that you do inside
the house.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
Wait, you're saying that you were only allowed to if
they know you are an eater.

Speaker 3 (07:31):
Well, I mean, I just have I think there's a
part where decorum comes in, and I think if you're
going to somebody else's.

Speaker 1 (07:37):
Home, you know you act a little better. Ali, what's up?
It's Mojo in the morning High.

Speaker 4 (07:42):
Ali, Hi, good morning.

Speaker 1 (07:44):
How is everybody fantastic? What's going on. So mean, those
are for real white people problems for sure. Yep.

Speaker 3 (07:52):
I'm from a southside Chicago like Mojo, and you can
pick different cultures and you definitely.

Speaker 1 (07:59):
Know what to eat where you walk into.

Speaker 5 (08:01):
Absolutely it is hard to be white on the holidays,
all right. I recognized there is a privilege associated with
my color, but it does not present itself.

Speaker 1 (08:16):
We didn't take any seasonings with us.

Speaker 5 (08:18):
We saw salt and we were like, that's it and
the tiniest that's how we get on the whisper assault.
Somebody sneeze time over and jar assault.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
That's what we did.

Speaker 3 (08:29):
I haven't been to white people's house song holidays, don't
it's disappointing.

Speaker 4 (08:35):
I know you were saying all these like foods that
were out on the counter, and we had like four
options in my house yesterday. Really, I'm starting to think
that I was like not a great hostess.

Speaker 1 (08:45):
We have lots of options and we have a lot
of food, But the problem is sometimes when you have
a lot of boys, the boys eat. We have to
tell the boys ahead of time before you guys go,
that you're only allowed. Like if it were up to
my kids, they would choose like twenty eight thousand rolls
and they would eat. They would eat a pile of
as long as they Hawaii.

Speaker 4 (09:06):
Problem with us is everybody we host Easter dinner, and
the problem is everybody goes elsewhere for Easter brunch or lunch,
and by the time they come to do us, they're
not even hungry. I've learned my lessons, making a bajillion
thing deserves spread.

Speaker 1 (09:18):
My favorite brunches are not the brunches that the you
know that the kids like these days. My favorite bunches
are the buffets brunches they used to call brunches where
there's like sections. There's like breakfast in one area, dinner
and the other salad and the other. You know what
I mean.

Speaker 2 (09:32):
My favorite brunch is mimosas. That's it.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
That's That's what makes a bread. What's going on Withney breakfast?
One play play? We all want to know about mojos as.
You want to know how many I had? I actually
know about your ass? Oh, you want to know about
my ass? My ass is getting better, Thank God, thank
you for asking about it. Yes, but but but I

(09:59):
will tell you this one or ten plates. I'm on
a weight loss shot. I cannot do that many and Honestly,
if I tried a second plate, I would throw up
on myself. It's that bad. So which is good? What's up?
Amanda High?

Speaker 5 (10:15):
Hey?

Speaker 1 (10:16):
I just need to say, y'all need to leave Kevin alone.

Speaker 2 (10:19):
It was a holiday. You're allowed to pick out on
a holiday. It's an American way.

Speaker 1 (10:23):
But his auntie, his auntie wants to make sure there's
enough food for everyone, not just for Catt.

Speaker 3 (10:30):
Well is auntie probably go around telling everybody bad things
about themselves.

Speaker 1 (10:35):
Who do you know at the last supper, if one
of the disciples ate all the food, there wouldn't be
enough for everybody. Jesus, Yes. So what's going on? Emily?
How you doing? Good morning?

Speaker 3 (10:48):
I'm great?

Speaker 1 (10:48):
How are you fantastic? What's up?

Speaker 5 (10:51):
So?

Speaker 3 (10:51):
I feel like you have to follow the lead of
the person who cooked the food or who's home you're in.

Speaker 1 (10:56):
Like, if I cook a whole lot of food and
I need it going, I'm going to tell.

Speaker 3 (11:00):
You fixed plates take place, Come get more, get second, right.
But obviously if I'm like hawking over the food stash
of stuff here and there and you.

Speaker 1 (11:08):
See it's almost gone, don't come back for another plate. Yeah,
so you would have done you would have done the
same thing that Kev's aunt did to him. You would
have said, Kevin, we need to know there are starting
kids that are potentially coming over her.

Speaker 3 (11:24):
If I had tapped somebody on their shoulder because they
are just outraged, its like this their fourth plate.

Speaker 1 (11:29):
Yeah, if you're not putting that in the bag to go,
I'm gonna need.

Speaker 2 (11:32):
You to go to down.

Speaker 1 (11:33):
And if family can't tell family that they need to
back away, then who can tell you? You know what
I mean. I think it's the same thing with alcohol.
I think if people are over drinking, I think you've
got to be able to say something, just like.

Speaker 3 (11:43):
If you're eating too much, Kevin. It's not her house though,
and she adn't cook the food, so like.

Speaker 2 (11:52):
Was there still food on the counter when you Yeah,
and we was the last people to leave, like a
lot of food or like a little bit.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
I mean enough for a few place.

Speaker 2 (12:01):
You should have taken it.

Speaker 3 (12:04):
She gave me one like did you get a turkey leg?
I was like no, She was like take a turkey
lig Well, at that point, she's making fun of you.
She's by the way, you're never You're never invited over
to her. Darts and I'm about to throw them back.

Speaker 1 (12:17):
You're never invited over to her house, I guess, well,
of course I am.

Speaker 4 (12:21):
Remember the last time Mojo had us over and we
were rashed into like four grapes and one chicken finger
does at cook though he.

Speaker 1 (12:27):
Got order it? No, I order in, and I ordered in,
and they literally they made it small portions. They made
it recession proportions.
