Is Bob Wojnowski A Hoarder? [VIDEO]

You have heard of "Bob the Builder," but have you ever heard of "Bob the Hoarder?" Up until Thursday afternoon, I had absolutely no idea that Bob Wojnowski from the Jamie and Wojo show was a hoarder.

By definition a hoarder is someone who keeps, "a supply or accumulation that is hidden or carefully guarded for preservation, future use, etc."

That, my friends, is exactly what Wojo has done with his newspapers.

George Fox and myself went over to Wojo's house to film Jamie Samuelsen cooking his world-famous Super Bowl chili and Jamie let us in on a little secret: Bob doesn't throw away any newspaper.

I had to see for myself and sure enough, he had stacks on stacks on stacks of old newspapers. OK, I get it, Bob writes for the Detroit News so why wouldn't he want to keep his hard work? Well one reason might be that all of his articles live online.

The rumor has it that Jamie Samuelsen and Mike Stone of the Stoney and Bill show helped Bob move 10 years ago -- not to move the furniture but to move the newspapers -- and Bob had the nerve to tell them to keep all the papers in chronological order.

Not only does Bob have thousands of newspapers, but he also has all of his old writing pads as well with what appeared to be hundreds of old Sports Illustrated magazines.

Now it's time for you to decide, is Bob a hoarder?
