In this episode of 'Mojo in the Morning,' host Mojo reflects on a humorous yet awkward bathroom encounter at Little Caesars Arena during a Pistons game, where a man attempted to shake his hand immediately after using the urinal. The moment sparked a broader conversation about social norms, personal boundaries, and the unspoken 'man code' governing restroom behavior. Mojo shares stories of awkward bathroom moments, from men trying to talk mid-poop to the absurdity of using a child-sized urinal, while also contrasting the communal, social nature of women's restrooms—complete with hair-drying rituals and lounge-like settings—with the typically isolated, silent male restroom experience. The episode blends humor with cultural commentary, touching on generational differences, family dynamics, and the emotional weight behind seemingly mundane interactions. The segment ends with a recurring promotional plug for Mojo's new podcast, 'The Clifford Show,' and other iHeartRadio network shows.
Avoid shaking hands with someone immediately after they've used a urinal—personal space and hygiene matter.
Men often feel the need to maintain emotional distance in public restrooms, unlike women who frequently socialize in bathrooms.
The 'man code' dictates silence and privacy in restrooms, but exceptions like talking during a poop or using a child-sized urinal break the unspoken rules.
Public restrooms reveal deeper cultural norms: women's bathrooms are social spaces, while men's bathrooms are often silent zones of isolation.
Even grown men can still feel parented by their parents, especially in car rides or when being told how to drive.

Man Code, Stalls, and Bathroom Etiquette
“You always skip and see that's how it's always been, man code. Here's the thing though, Tony. What if the only urinal position that's there is the little kid urinal?”
