FunTranscript
00:00Hello to you, Mrs. Wilder.
00:05I want to kiss you, Roxanne's mother.
00:08Let's just hear it in the hospital.
00:14Roxanne, you got a pretty interesting story here about your mother,
00:19but then you found out something else.
00:21Yeah, I did.
00:22This is weird.
00:23Guys, you want to hear a weird story?
00:24All right, so I'm going to give you, I'm going to start the clock.
00:28Just a couple of minutes here because we have a lot to get.
00:30But it's a really interesting story.
00:32Go ahead.
00:33Okay, in 10 seconds.
00:34This guy reached out to me.
00:35It's not 10 seconds, and you don't have to sound like you're all jacked up on speed.
00:39All right, go ahead.
00:41This guy reached out to me on our MJ Morning Show email,
00:44and he said, Roxanne, first a disclaimer,
00:47if your mother never taught English in South Tampa,
00:50I'm sorry my internet detectives have led me astray.
00:52But then you said, wait.
00:55She did.
00:56My mother did teach English at school in South Tampa.
01:02Interesting.
01:03So he goes on to say that he thinks my mom was his ninth grade English teacher,
01:08and that him and this group of guys who were her favorite students,
01:13they still talk about her.
01:14They still all are friends with one another.
01:16And he said, please say hi to your mom.
01:18And we still have those Simon and Garfunkel lyric sheets that she passed out in class.
01:24That's pretty awesome.
01:26What?
01:26Hello, sunshine.
01:27What?
01:29Like a bridge over troubled water.
01:32Like a bridge over troubled water.
01:36So what year was this?
01:39It was in the 70s.
01:40In the 1970s.
01:42So they all had Garfunkel hairdos.
01:45Late 70s.
01:46All right.
01:47So.
01:48So.
01:49Late 70s?
01:51Mm-hmm.
01:51So then she, so then he goes out.
01:53So I tell my mom about this guy.
01:55Right.
01:55And my mom is like, oh my gosh, yeah.
01:57He was my favorite student.
01:59Those kids were so good.
02:00I loved them so much, this group of guys.
02:02So your mom remembered these students.
02:04Oh, yeah.
02:04This, this guy, she, he contacts you thinking that your mom might be the teacher that they
02:10loved.
02:11Exactly.
02:11Now, what school was this?
02:13Monroe.
02:13Oh, Monroe.
02:14Yes.
02:16And so my mom says, these, these are my sweetest, most wonderful students ever.
02:20So she says.
02:20Nice touch, Coop.
02:27My teacher handed out Eazy-E lyrics.
02:30What is that?
02:31Also.
02:31I love Eazy-E.
02:32What is that?
02:32Slow down.
02:33You move too fast.
02:34Wasn't that another one?
02:35Yeah.
02:36Oh, Simon and Garfunkel had plenty of hits.
02:39Yeah.
02:39Name two.
02:40Rapper's Delight.
02:41Yeah.
02:43Getting sketchy at the hotel.
02:45Play that, play that funky music, White Boy.
02:47You guys know nothing about Simon and Garfunkel.
02:49Other than Bridge Over Troubled Water.
02:51And, hello, is that Simon and Garfunkel?
02:56I can't.
02:58So the guys contact you.
03:00The guys, so, so then I hit him back because now I'm curious.
03:03What in the world would you, how would you tie me, Roxanne Wilder, to my mom who has a
03:10different last name?
03:12So he said, funny, funny you should ask, just like Festers, kind of weird.
03:16And he said that he went to his dentist in the morning, which is crazy because usually
03:23he goes to his dentist in the afternoon.
03:25Yeah, totally nuts.
03:27My dentist only had an 8.30 appointment today.
03:31Crazy.
03:33All right, Ed, come on, tell me.
03:35And the MG Morning Show was on the radio.
03:37In the dentist's office.
03:38In the dentist's office in South Tampa.
03:39Right.
03:40And he, I guess, Roxanne, mom teacher, I don't, I don't know.
03:45Oh, my name.
03:46I'll get to that in a second.
03:47My name is what tipped him off.
03:49So he started doing his internet sleuthing.
03:51Well, guess what?
03:52Turns out, him and his friends came, he says in the email, we came to visit you in the hospital
03:58at St. Joe's.
04:00What?
04:01All right, so.
04:01A pack of teenagers came to visit me in the hospital?
04:03All right, wait a second.
04:04All right, so here's the story.
04:05When were you in the hospital?
04:06So while hanging on.
04:07When I was born.
04:07When she was born.
04:09Listen to this.
04:09Oh.
04:09Wait a minute.
04:10So Roxanne's mother was a teacher.
04:12Yes.
04:13And in the middle of the school year, she left to give birth to you.
04:17Yes, right.
04:18And then apparently these students actually went to the hospital to see their teacher.
04:23Yes.
04:24And they saw you as a little newborn baby?
04:27Yes, so that's why he heard Roxanne.
04:29And so he remembered, oh, my English teacher had a baby named Roxanne.
04:33Obviously.
04:33My God.
04:34That's what tipped him off.
04:35This was like an oddly close relationship for a teacher.
04:38Slow down.
04:39You move too fast.
04:41You got to make the morning last.
04:44It's a theme song for Roxanne's storytelling.
04:46Walking along the cobblestone.
04:49I think that's the next line or something like that.
04:51Why was your mom so close to a group of teenagers?
04:53Yeah, that's weird that students are visiting your mom after you just came out.
04:56I did give her a hard time about that.
04:59Mom?
04:59I did.
04:59But okay, class, I'm going to show you where babies come from.
05:03These boys were so cute.
05:05But listen, it was different times back then.
05:09That's how, I mean, it was like, okay, come see my new baby at the hospital.
05:13People go by.
05:13It's not like you held.
05:14It's not like they held me.
05:15They walked by and saw me.
05:16Your mother doesn't remember 40-something years ago.
05:19Was your mom hot?
05:19What grade was this?
05:22Okay, so these boys got older.
05:24So she taught them in ninth grade.
05:26I was born years later.
05:28So this is when they were seniors in high school.
05:31Oh my God, this is even, what a bunch.
05:33What, what, what, what?
05:33Teachers squeezing out baby.
05:43We're going to go to the hospital and see the teacher who just gave birth to little Roxanne.
05:49They're hot for teacher.
05:51I've seen this scenario.
05:53Whom will be delivering our English teacher's baby?
05:56Did I use that right?
05:56And guess what?
05:57You ready for the real, real bomb drop of a story?
06:03Lay it on me.
06:03One of the high school kids is actually Roxanne's father.
06:06Oh my God.
06:07Yep.
06:07Come on.
06:08I'm kidding.
06:08I'm kidding.
06:09I'm sorry.
06:10That was inappropriate.
06:12That would have been an awesome ending.
06:13That would have been the best, wouldn't it?
06:15Your mom's not in her head right now.
06:17Wow.
06:18That is crazy.
06:19But it's kind of strange.
06:20Like, how am I this many years old and I don't know who came and visited me when I was born?
06:25Because you were a baby.
06:27You know, let me tell you.
06:28Because you were nothing days old.
06:29Let me tell you what I've noticed.
06:31With the pandemic, people are getting more nostalgic.
06:35People are trying to go back.
06:37It's almost like people are trying to make sense of our world and just regular things being turned upside down.
06:43And I think people are going back to, like, comfort.
06:47Sort of like comfort food, comfortable parts of their life.
06:50Comfort in.
06:51Exactly.
06:52I stayed there a couple months ago.
06:53It was really nice.
06:54Yeah?
06:54Yeah.
06:55Bed bugs?
06:56No.
06:56That's why I've been watching I Was Saved by the Bell again.
06:59It gives me a nostalgic, comfortable feeling.
07:01No, but seriously, I think the pandemic has done this.
07:03Yes.
07:03Guys, didn't I tell you that my whole group of high school friends, Doug, Kyle, Destructo Dan, real name Mike, and me, that we've all reconvened.
07:17You know, we've been in touch.
07:18Mike I hadn't spoken to since high school.
07:20But Kyle and Doug, I had, you know, occasionally over the years.
07:24But Doug put together a whole text group, and we're all for texting, and it's like multiple times a week.
07:31Sometimes it's, you know, a bunch of texts a night.
07:33But Doug, you know, sending messages out, guys, I miss you guys.
07:38And I think, again, it goes back to, I think, the pandemic.
07:42People are becoming more nostalgic.
07:43They're trying to find, you know, reason and purpose.
07:46And I think a lot of folks are doing this.
07:48Your friend sends you messages saying, I miss you?
07:50Yeah.
07:50I mean, we had great times as, man, my friend.
07:53Yeah, great times with my friends, too.
07:55But we don't act like a bunch of, you know, couples.
07:59I miss you, honey.
08:00I miss you.
08:01Can you call me?
08:02Just call me.
08:03I miss your lip.
08:04I just want to hear your voice.
08:05I think there's, guys, are you going to stop mocking me?
08:07I'm trying to talk about something that's, uh.
08:09Todd, give me one of these.
08:10Something that's sociologically going on here.
08:13Why don't we talk anymore, Todd?
08:14Guys, I'm going to throw stuff at you in two seconds.
08:17All right, sorry, go ahead.
08:18I won't mock you anymore.
08:19I'll tell you, you know what?
08:20We've got disinfectant spray.
08:21I'm going to spray you in the face.
08:22All right?
08:23Listen, just because of big losers, they call me and go.
08:26Can I spray him?
08:27I will spray him, too.
08:28Spray yourself.
08:30Here's the can.
08:30Spray yourself.
08:31Oh, this is glass and mirror cleaner.
08:34This isn't the.
08:35I will polish that head of yours right now, Fester.
08:37Hey, listen.
08:38Hey, Fro, give me the can right behind you.
08:39Throw this to me.
08:40Don't throw at me with a good time.
08:41Toss me the can.
08:43All right, so this is.
08:45Yeah, here's the surface.
08:46Look, they buy what?
08:48The most awful, like, generic-looking stuff around here.
08:51Industrial.
08:51All right, so here's the surface and disinfectant deodorant.
08:55Fester, would you rather be sprayed with the disinfectant or the glass and mirror cleaner?
09:00On one end of my body, I would prefer one, and on the other end, I would prefer the other.
09:06You decide, Rox.
09:07Anyway.
09:08All right, so this guy knew your mother and held you as a baby.
09:12What hospital were you born in?
09:13St. Joe's.
09:14Okay.
09:15I thought you were born in Miami for some reason.
09:16I'm sorry.
09:17I didn't know that.
09:18That's crazy.
09:19Yeah, it's crazy.
09:20Are you meeting up with this guy?
09:22Oh, hey.
09:23Are you hooking your mom up with him now?
09:25No, because he's legal now.
09:26He's legal now.
09:27Hey, Michelle says we've got to play Mrs. Robinson.
09:31Right?
09:32That's very appropriate.
09:33For real.
09:34Was that just Paul Simon?
09:35That's Paul Simon.
09:36Yeah, is that just...
09:38Was that...
09:38I don't know.
09:39Look it up.
09:40You've got the Googles in front of you.
09:42Come on.
09:43Hey, and guess what?
09:44I'm not going to say her last name, but it sounds very similar to Robinson.
09:48Who?
09:48My mom.
09:50What is it?
09:50Robinson?
09:51It's like Robinson.
09:52What?
09:53Robertson?
09:53It's like off by a letter.
09:54It's Robertson?
09:55It's super close to that.
09:56I know.
09:56Simon and Garfunkel.
09:57Mrs. Robinson.
10:00Oh, yeah.
10:00Oh, listen to that.
10:02It's pretty cool.
10:03Yeah.
10:07This could be very fitting.
10:13Wow.
10:14It's up to you, Mrs. Wilder.
10:19I want to kiss you, Roxanne's mother.
10:23Let's just hear in the hospital.
10:26No, this was Simon and Garfunkel.
10:27Yeah, it was.
10:29All right.
10:29All right, hang on.
10:30Here we go.
10:31Here we go.
10:31Here we go.
10:32Here's to you, Mrs. Robinson.
10:35Jesus loves you more than you will know.
10:37Oh, no, no, no.
10:40Guys ripped off the beers.
10:42How crazy would it be if you and helped your mom walk up with this ex-student?
10:47I mean, you have to keep it on the slide.
10:50They're both married.
10:50Yeah.
10:51I mean, your mom is what?
10:52Maybe just 10 years older than them now or 15?
10:55No.
10:55Like, no.
10:56My mom is like five years older.
10:59It's their year old school.
11:01Wow.
11:02All right, Roxanne.
11:03This whole age dystopia that you live in.
11:06But your mom's what?
11:0710, 15 years older than these people?
11:08No.
11:09No.
11:10She had me when she was like 25.
11:12So she was.
11:13So she was like 20.
11:15Yeah.
11:15Okay, so, Rox, you got to get a room at the heart.
11:22What's his first name?
11:24Gary.
11:25Give Gary a key.
11:26Gary.
11:27Give mom a key and say, yo, happy Valentine's Day.
11:30Yeah.
11:30Huh?
11:30Come visit my 80-year-old mom.
11:33You know what?
11:33He's not 80.
11:34She looks great.
11:34How old is your mom?
11:35He's early 70.
11:37Okay, I'm sorry.
11:38I'm sorry.
11:38If Gary has been holding a candle for Rox's mom this long, you have no problem.
11:42Age is just a number.
11:43Move it along.
11:45There is video, folks, of a Karen in a parking garage.
11:50This is pretty nutty.
11:52There is video of a woman driving, looks like a Jeep Grand Cherokee, and this individual in
12:01a wheelchair.
12:02I'm really proud of this guy in this video.
12:04So the guy in the wheel.
12:05Sorry, I'm sorry.
12:06I have to interrupt.
12:07My sister just texted me.
12:08She's like, oh my God, we are half sisters.
12:12Yeah, right?
12:12Because Rox's father is the student.
12:15Yeah.
12:15That's possible.
12:16Oh my God.
12:17This is great.
12:18Angela, can you believe it?
12:20Your mother was the original Deborah LaFave in Hillsborough County.
12:24Mary Kay.
12:24Yeah.
12:27Mrs. Mary Kay Wilder.
12:28Your mom was too hot for, too pretty for prison.
12:32Bye.
