Club Shay Shay - Mojo Brookzz Part 1

April 1, 2026·1 hr 21 min·5 clips

Mojo Brookzz claims women are more toxic than men because they expect men to read their minds.

Shannon Sharp opens with a clip from a YK Osiris viral moment about relationship expectations before transitioning into welcoming Mojo Brookzz, whom he introduces with an extended list of credentials: Variety top 10 comics to watch alongside alumni Kevin Hart, Amy Schumer, and Tiffany Haddish; Emmy award-winning content creator; multi-hyphenate actor, writer, and producer. Sharp pours Mojo a drink and they evaluate it together — Mojo, who describes himself as light-skinned and needing a chaser, is pleasantly surprised by how smooth it is. The conversation starts with the origin of the catchphrase "I know you lying," which Mojo explains he had been using in real life long before it appeared in his content. The first time was when his mother called to tell him his younger sister was pregnant, and his instinctive reaction was the phrase that would later become his trademark. He describes the line as suited for moments when something simply does not make sense — the phrase captures the cognitive dissonance of receiving information you cannot process. Sharp and Mojo explore when the phrase works versus when it does not, with Sharp adopting it into his own repertoire during the conversation. The discussion turns to the toxic relationship persona, which Mojo describes as intentionally provocative but ultimately corrective in intent: his goal is to show men what their behavior looks like from the outside, since many will dismiss being told they are toxic but will recognize themselves when they see it dramatized. He cites people who have messaged him saying his skits triggered them into recognizing they were the problem in their relationships as evidence the content is doing something useful. On the question of who is more toxic — men or women — Mojo argues women because they tend to assume partners will know what they want without being told, whereas men communicate more directly. Sharp, drawing on conversations with a therapist, contributes perspectives on what actually drives relationship breakdown beyond finances and infidelity. The episode has the warm, improvisational quality characteristic of Club Shay Shay at its best, with Sharp functioning as both interviewer and participant in the conversation.
