So we're going to get to that. A new awkward Tuesday.

Speaker 1 (00:19):
We've got of course, you trying to take me on
in trivia, bring it. And it's newbie week in Trivia
this week, that's right, so we're taking on all nubes.
See how it goes, Alexis. What do you see on
the comment page? Yea, I saw it from Denzel who said, hey, guys,
one of the newest listeners. We taught you guys knowing
you were along my sleepless nights writing up my master's thesis.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
And now I'm bringing you along my PhD.

Speaker 2 (00:55):
Bowler, yep, doctor. I love it. I'm so excited. Yeah
you should. All right, let's get this show started.

Speaker 4 (01:05):
Online dating is such a dumpster fire right now. Even
the apps are like, yeah, we're out. Brook and Jeffrey in.

Speaker 2 (01:13):
The Morning after just giving up.

Speaker 4 (01:16):
I say that because Bumble just announced they're letting go
thirty percent of their staff.

Speaker 5 (01:21):
And when you're laying off.

Speaker 4 (01:23):
About a third of your workers, what does that say
about your business?

Speaker 5 (01:26):
Alexis, it's not doing good? Yes, Alexis today are you?

Speaker 2 (01:32):
Are you sure? Because maybe they're just saying too many
people fell in love, people are on the dating apps.

Speaker 5 (01:38):
Yeah, oh yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:39):
Is that why they're letting everybody go from radio because
we're doing too good?

Speaker 6 (01:43):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (01:45):
Yeah, No, you can't get funnier than this.

Speaker 4 (01:49):
Apparently bumble stock has lost ninety percent of its value.

Speaker 5 (01:54):
Oh my, what so much? And it's not just Bumble,
it's all the dating apps.

Speaker 4 (02:01):
Hinge, Tinder, okay, stupid, all of them have been doing
layoffs because people are just they're over it.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
I saw TikTok and it was like remember in the
two thousands when we didn't have screens to look at
at the bar, so we would just get bored and
make out with people.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
Maybe that's what we need to heal the world.

Speaker 7 (02:20):
You're right, or like you would finally get a courage
and to play. Yeah, like next thing, you know, you're making.

Speaker 4 (02:26):
Out of course, Brook wants to bring back more bar makeouts.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
I'm telling you those are the good times technology more kisses.

Speaker 4 (02:33):
Yeah, the dating apps are trying to pivot, though, they're
not giving up, and that's why Tinder says they're gonna
be rolling out a new double date feature that allows
friends to pair up on the app and arrange group dates.

Speaker 2 (02:49):
Oh man, like Tinder's not the platform. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (02:54):
I feel like there's gonna be like Lost Fantasy Leagues,
where this is the punishment.

Speaker 5 (03:00):
It's good.

Speaker 4 (03:00):
Now you can get rejected in front of your friends
instead of just texting them about it after that.

Speaker 5 (03:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (03:07):
So, in the spirit of group action, let's move on
to the shock collar question of the day. Let's do
this as a group together and send it over to
our digital producer. Everybody's hands in for some group shock action.

Speaker 5 (03:21):
Here we go.

Speaker 3 (03:22):
You better keep his mom's name out your mouth because
today is Jaden Smith's birthday, a son of Will Smith,
and well maybe you don't know too much about him.
He has said some pretty profound things, things that would
make you stop and say, WHOA did a genius just

(03:43):
show up on MTV and drop some metaphysical knowledge. In fact,
you might not be able to tell the difference between
a quote from Jaden Smith and Socrates, which is why
today we're doing a special real Jaden or imitating edition
of blenty of twenty. You say number one through twenty,

(04:07):
I'll read you a quote that could have been said
by Jaden Smith or possibly by one of the great
philosophers from history, Plato Voltaire, could be anyone. You just
have to tell me. Is that quote real, Jayden or imitating.
We'll start with the woman who's never metaphysical specimen she

(04:27):
wasn't interested in. That's Alexis. I'm very impressive, Alexis about
a number. Your quote is this quote, how can mirrors
be real if our eyes aren't real? Is that a
real Jaden or imitated?

Speaker 2 (04:50):
I feel stupid that I'm torn on it.

Speaker 8 (04:55):
I don't.

Speaker 1 (04:57):
Think about that quote too hard will make anyone feel
So let's just go real Jaden.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
Alexis says, that's a real Jaden Smith quote. Alexis, Yeah,
I'm still waiting on someone to decode that one. I'm
not sure the meaning behind it. Brook, We're over to you, chosen.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
I can't see it with my fake eyes. Go sixteen, Brook.

Speaker 3 (05:20):
Your quote is this quote, most trees are blue?

Speaker 4 (05:25):
Is that real Jaden or is it in the ta
I just cried from the depth of that that was amazing.

Speaker 2 (05:30):
Do you think it means the color they're just kind
of sad eyes?

Speaker 5 (05:34):
Oh yeah?

Speaker 2 (05:36):
Is he also colorblise and that's where his vision thing
gets it. I'm gonna go with that's definitely.

Speaker 5 (05:41):
Jaden, real jade and it's a real Jaden Smith quote.

Speaker 9 (05:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (05:47):
It feels like something you'd hear, like in a night
terror right before you wake up screaming.

Speaker 4 (05:52):
We're proving Jaden Smith is like a modern day Aristotle.

Speaker 10 (05:55):
Every quote, why does it he make sense?

Speaker 7 (05:59):
Let's go number two.

Speaker 3 (06:01):
Your quote is this, Okay, I watched Twilight every night?
Is that real Jayden or imitated?

Speaker 7 (06:08):
I mean love Twilight? Do you have any help for me?

Speaker 2 (06:17):
I don't. I still can't see Twilight.

Speaker 7 (06:22):
Okay, shot in the dark. I'm going real Jaden.

Speaker 3 (06:26):
Hosey says, that's a real Jaden Smith quote that he said, yeah, yes,
the movie Yeah, kind of explains a lot about him.
I think every night, Jeffrey, we need a number from you.

Speaker 5 (06:40):
Number five.

Speaker 3 (06:41):
Your quote is this, When you think about an apple,
you also think about the opposite of an apple. What
sounds like a philosopher. What are you gonna go with?
Is that real Jayden or imitated?

Speaker 5 (06:53):
They sho put that quote on a pillow at home Goods.

Speaker 4 (06:59):
I mean, I could see like nietzschee saying something like that.

Speaker 5 (07:02):
But I'm gonna go out. I'm gonna say it's real.

Speaker 3 (07:04):
Jaden And he's all right, it's either poetry or a
cry for help.

Speaker 5 (07:10):
But you got it right, amazing, Alexis.

Speaker 3 (07:13):
We're gonna go back over to you. We're talking real
Jaden Smith quotes or quotes from famous philosophers.

Speaker 7 (07:18):
We got a lot of quotes buckle in.

Speaker 3 (07:20):
All right, he said a lot hasn't really meant a lot,
but he said a lot. Two, five, eleven, and sixteen
have been chosen.

Speaker 8 (07:26):
Nine.

Speaker 3 (07:27):
Your quote is this, if everybody in the world dropped
out of school, we would have a more intelligent society.
Is that Jaden Smith's son of Will and Jada Pinkett
or the commentation? Wow, I feel like I read this
while I.

Speaker 5 (07:41):
Was in school.

Speaker 3 (07:44):
School idiot, I know That's why I'm like this Real Jaden. Yeah,
it is Brook. We're going to you for the final quote.
These have been five for five real Jaden.

Speaker 2 (07:59):
Ja She's so funny.

Speaker 3 (08:03):
Seven. Your quote is this, you can discover everything you
need to know about everything by looking at your hands.

Speaker 11 (08:11):
Is that real?

Speaker 3 (08:12):
Jadener? Imitate hands?

Speaker 1 (08:15):
The Gravelosoers did like to talk about everything from everything,
But I'm gonna go Jaden.

Speaker 7 (08:21):
Clean, sweet Brook.

Speaker 11 (08:22):
Are you sure?

Speaker 2 (08:23):
I'm positive she's positive.

Speaker 9 (08:26):
And I'm positive she's right?

Speaker 3 (08:28):
That is real Jadon Smith quote. Everybody got it right,
which makes us the Jaden Smith's of the universe so
much smarter.

Speaker 4 (08:39):
Jake's gonna be getting shocked and somebody wanted to hear
just the two of us by Will Smith.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
Yeah, it wasn't for Jaden, though it was for the
other son betray.

Speaker 2 (08:49):
And Trey was in it.

Speaker 3 (08:51):
My eyes aren't real, The shock isn't real. Here we go,
just the two of us. We can make it if
we try, just the two of a it's just the
two of Yeah, it was real.

Speaker 4 (09:06):
Will Smith, rappot Collar question of the day, got your
phones out coming up in just.

Speaker 8 (09:11):
A few minutes, Brook and Jeffrey in the morning.

Speaker 4 (09:15):
Out of everyone who works on this show, I don't
think anybody is more committed to charity than Brook.

Speaker 8 (09:22):
Is nice.

Speaker 4 (09:23):
I hope it's not out of place with me to
say that it sound like glowy or anything.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
I mean, I've been trying to get you to come
to some of these events for a while.

Speaker 4 (09:30):
If you want to come, it's more your thing, because
I know Brook is out there every single week donating
her time and her energy and her money actually to
organizations like Yachts for Tops, Sandwich Foundation. In her personal fave,
No Neppo baby's left unglammed.

Speaker 2 (09:50):
I do that after the Little league coaching.

Speaker 1 (09:52):
I do.

Speaker 12 (09:52):
Yeah, that's the newborns are just taken right into like
a glam room.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
You don't want an ugly baby.

Speaker 5 (09:59):
That's the I know She's been doing that one for
over a decade.

Speaker 4 (10:02):
So look, mama is busy and she hardly has any
time left to do this show. Oh yeah, even when
she does, you think she wants to spend her precious
time talking to commoners playing them in a silly trivia game.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
Especially if they haven't been glammed.

Speaker 4 (10:17):
Yeah, contractually she has to do it, so coming up
with a painted smile on her face. Brooke will take
a break from donating Sesna's to CEOs and try to
defend her trivia crown.

Speaker 5 (10:30):
It's coming up right now.

Speaker 4 (10:39):
Brooke has been on a little bit of a winning
streak lately, and I'm assuming it's because of where I
placed my microphone to block my face so she can't
make eye contact, because normally she's gazing across the room
at me with those hungry eyes the entire time.

Speaker 5 (10:56):
I feel, you gotta do what you gotta do.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
You guys are not hungry Brooks.

Only thirteen percent of the M and m's are brown.

Speaker 4 (16:13):
We do so many relationship things on this show. We're
bound to run across a few people being unfaithful. But
what happens when one of our listeners does and they're
not even in the relationship.

Speaker 5 (16:26):
What they're just an.

Speaker 4 (16:27):
Innocent bystander who stumbled across some very scandalous information. The
question is do you keep your mouth shut, mind your
own business, or do you do what our listener did
and pull something kind of sneaky to expose what's really
going on. I will say her job plays a big
part in how it all went down. You're gonna hear

(16:49):
it in a brand new mass speaker that's coming up
right after this.

Speaker 5 (16:54):
You hear our confession.

Speaker 11 (16:57):
I can't take back ol farm.

Speaker 4 (17:02):
Mouse speaker text to sevent eighty five ninety two says
I was on a cruise with my ex and his
new girlfriend what and I may or may not have
made the ship's crew believe that she had a contagious rash, so.

Speaker 5 (17:17):
They quarantined her for three days.

Speaker 4 (17:19):
I got to drink dakeries with my ex and she
was stuck in her cabin the entire time.

Speaker 5 (17:25):
I don't regret it. I won that cruise. Oh you
can just see it.

Speaker 2 (17:30):
I don't know that you did, because it's still your ex. Yeah,
so you guys aren't back together. I don't know that
that's the winning you wanted.

Speaker 4 (17:36):
I mean, normally we'd call that a petty, borderline toxic move,
but it was a cruise ship, and there's no rules
or morals when you're in international water, so I think
technically you're safe. The only rule that we have on
this segment is be one hundred percent honest about your
dirty deeds while we keep you anonymous for the Mass Speaker.
And today we have a woman who wants to come

(17:57):
clean using the fake name Kylie. So, Kylie, welcome to
the show.

Speaker 11 (18:01):
Hi. How are you guys?

Speaker 2 (18:04):
Kylie?

Speaker 11 (18:05):
Yeah good.

Speaker 4 (18:06):
We're ready for some toxic energy from you, hopefully because
voice Changer is on.

Speaker 5 (18:11):
You are the mass Speaker. Whenever you're ready, Let's hear
your confession.

Speaker 11 (18:14):
Well, I used to work at a flower shop.

Speaker 5 (18:18):
Cool.

Speaker 2 (18:18):
That always looks like such a fun job.

Speaker 11 (18:20):
No, it's fun. It was The flowers were always really
pretty and I love to see, you know, where they
were going. I did the online order, so we had
this one regular customer and he was my flowers like
every two weeks for his girlfriend.

Speaker 2 (18:36):
But it was just online, so you never knew him
in person.

Speaker 11 (18:40):
Yeah. I would just see, like the order come in
and I wouldn't sit it out and all of that
kind of thing. But he would always put this card
on it, you know, like to my living girlfriends, say.

Speaker 2 (18:50):
Living or loving.

Speaker 12 (18:51):
I think you meant to say love loving, Okay to
my living girlfriend That's every romantic yeah, living as in
not dead, so.

Speaker 11 (19:01):
Loving, yeah, loving, love it like I'm so lucky to
have you.

Speaker 5 (19:06):
And okay, I bet.

Speaker 2 (19:10):
You get that a lot though at flower shops.

Speaker 11 (19:12):
Right, yeah, like a lot of sweets, happy stuff. And
that's fine. I actually I do. I like it. It's
nice to know that people are doing that in the world.

Speaker 1 (19:20):
You know.

Speaker 12 (19:20):
It's funny because everyone's always talking about romance is dead.

Speaker 7 (19:23):
You get to see it, you get to see.

Speaker 11 (19:24):
The yeah, I guess, so, yeah, it's very cheat. But
one week I noticed that he placed two orders and
I thought, yeah, like the first of that was a
double by mistake.

Speaker 3 (19:37):
He's in trouble.

Speaker 7 (19:38):
I've been there. We got to buy her two bouquets.

Speaker 5 (19:42):
You have to send her a bouquet for each day
of the week. A new thing. I love about you,
you know.

Speaker 11 (19:48):
But I just double checks because I wanted to make sure.
And I checked his notes and they were going to
different places, like one was his girlfriend, like I love you,
appreciate you holding them on the fort while I'm off
on business. You know, it's like whatever, And then the
other one was for a different woman.

Speaker 2 (20:06):
Please tell me it's his mom.

Speaker 5 (20:07):
Please tell me, sisters.

Speaker 11 (20:09):
No, unless he calls his mom baby because it said, hey, baby,
had an amazing weekend with you, something about Biggest will
never be the same.

Speaker 2 (20:20):
The mom I'm imaginings cheating.

Speaker 11 (20:23):
Oh god, I mean I felt horrible.

Speaker 2 (20:28):
Romance again.

Speaker 5 (20:33):
Now now you're an accomplice to Roman. Oh god.

Speaker 11 (20:38):
Yeah, so I sent them, you know. But the thing is,
like it kept happening, like he kept doing it and
sending two orders like consistently, like for months.

Speaker 4 (20:47):
She's like part of his rotation, and you're helping to
facilitate this ongoing affair.

Speaker 5 (20:53):
That's happening too.

Speaker 2 (20:54):
But I never realized affairs would be great for flower business. Yeah, I.

Speaker 11 (21:00):
Think there was a lot of silver lining, but like
I started to realize, like maybe I'm the only one
who knows that this is happening.

Speaker 5 (21:10):
It's a good point to the gate keeper.

Speaker 11 (21:13):
It was kind of eating at me, and I just
I felt responsible. So I just I felt like I
had to do something. So one time when this happened,
I accidentally switched the cards.

Speaker 2 (21:26):
No, no, my god, Oh my god. So wait, the
girlfriend got the side pieces card.

Speaker 7 (21:34):
Did anybody call you?

Speaker 5 (21:35):
Did he call you?

Speaker 7 (21:36):
Did she call you?

Speaker 11 (21:37):
I don't know how to exactly went down. I really don't.
But the guy called and like complained, and he said
that we had badly messed up his orders and he
wanted a refund. So we did give him a refund.

Speaker 5 (21:48):
Oh, I mean, I guess technically you didn't the order.
You broke the rule of business in that way, but.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
He didn't know that was on purpose.

Speaker 5 (21:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (21:55):
Yeah, I could be a common especially the same order
person you switched the card.

Speaker 2 (22:00):
It's like, why am I buying at the same flower shop.

Speaker 7 (22:04):
That's his own thing too.

Speaker 4 (22:05):
Okay, So he got a refund on his quote botched
order and then what.

Speaker 11 (22:10):
Well, I felt so bad that I sent each woman
because they had their information, So I sent them just
like on the house bouquets separately with apology.

Speaker 7 (22:21):
Notes, with what notes apology notes?

Speaker 11 (22:24):
Yeah, like I apologize. I said, I'm sorry your previous
order was wrong. It was for a different woman.

Speaker 5 (22:29):
Oh, you fully threw him under the bus.

Speaker 2 (22:32):
It was for a different woman. You put that in
the apology just in case it wasn't spelled out to
you or Who's good.

Speaker 4 (22:42):
It's smart because the guy probably would be like, oh,
I don't know what they did. That's clearly not my order.
They must have sent the wrong persons like Vegas. What
are they talking about Vegas? I was on a business trip.

Speaker 11 (22:54):
Yeah, yeah, so, I you know, there's no way he
coulds an eye it. I mean that was Kyle.

Speaker 2 (23:01):
Did you get any closure ever? Did he ever make
another order?

Speaker 11 (23:05):
No? He never sowerhop.

Speaker 2 (23:11):
He's just single and doesn't have anyone to send you.

Speaker 4 (23:16):
Is the flower shop that you worked at still in
business or was he the one person that was keeping it?

Speaker 5 (23:20):
Absolutely?

Speaker 7 (23:25):
Thank God?

Speaker 4 (23:30):
That must feel good to finally be able to tell
that story to somebody.

Speaker 11 (23:33):
Yes, to get it off.

Speaker 5 (23:35):
Did she do the right thing?

Speaker 4 (23:36):
Does the room believe that it was right to break
this professionally?

Speaker 9 (23:39):
No?

Speaker 5 (23:40):
YEA for the team.

Speaker 4 (23:42):
Yeah, we're so glad you did that. And text in
the seven eighty five nine too. If you have a
confession you've been holding on to, we can hide your identity,
mask your voice, and make you our next mass speaker.

Speaker 5 (23:51):
Your phone taps coming.

Speaker 8 (23:52):
Up freaking Jeffrey in the morning.

Speaker 4 (23:55):
Is there anything better than a brother sister prank war
that continues even once you both become adults.

Speaker 7 (24:03):
My sister wouldn't dare she know?

Speaker 12 (24:04):
I'd phone tap her in her whole office, And that's.

Speaker 5 (24:07):
What happens today.

Speaker 4 (24:08):
When a woman named Anne asked me to get her
brother's personal for you, she gave me one hundred percent
full authority to do whatever I want to mess with you.
Oh you know that's dangerous. Yeah, so I went with
the topic guaranteed to make any man feel extremely uncomfortable.
You're gonna find out what that is in your phone

(24:30):
tap right now.

Speaker 5 (24:37):
Hello, Hi Sebastian.

Speaker 9 (24:41):
Speaking.

Speaker 4 (24:42):
This is Nathan jeriatrica from assisted living. Your mother seems
to be doing very well living here.

Speaker 9 (24:48):
Oh well, that's good to hear. Is everything okay, Yeah,
everything's great.

Speaker 4 (24:53):
I'm just calling because we do have a small issue
that i'd like to discuss with you about your mother.

Speaker 9 (25:00):
Okay, is it anything serious?

Speaker 4 (25:03):
No, no, no, nothing serious. Maybe a bit sensitive though, Okay, yeah,
so your mom she she purchased a device recently.

Speaker 5 (25:15):
Okay, it's uh, it's oh what? Oh god? Okay. I
thought I thought this is going to be easier to say.

Speaker 9 (25:24):
Well, just say it. What are you talking to?

Speaker 5 (25:26):
She has?

Speaker 4 (25:27):
I guess I guess the old school term would be
a marital aid.

Speaker 9 (25:35):
My seventy seven year old mother purchased.

Speaker 8 (25:38):
A marital aid.

Speaker 5 (25:39):
Yes, yes, that's correct.

Speaker 9 (25:41):
Are you saying she has.

Speaker 5 (25:43):
A Yes, that is what I'm saying, and.

Speaker 9 (25:48):
Why would I want to know this? More importantly, how
do you know?

Speaker 4 (25:52):
Okay, well, sorry, I hear you're getting upset, and normally
I wouldn't know this, but we've had a few noise
complaints from some of the other residents.

Speaker 9 (26:00):
It's ridiculous, you know.

Speaker 4 (26:01):
It makes a certain kind of noise, and we're getting
a lot of residents complaining, saying it's waking them up
in the middle of the night.

Speaker 9 (26:08):
I can tell you right now, I can't believe we're
even having this conversation.

Speaker 5 (26:11):
It's about trust me.

Speaker 4 (26:13):
I don't want to have this conversation either, but please
Well then, I'm.

Speaker 5 (26:17):
Just saying, relax, we investigated.

Speaker 9 (26:19):
This and wait, wait, you investigated the vibe. What are
you talking about?

Speaker 4 (26:23):
It's for some reason, the model that she has. I
guess it's like a dustbuster, but with afterburners attached to it.

Speaker 5 (26:30):
A Dutch I don't really know how to describe it.

Speaker 9 (26:33):
That is so inappropriate you're calling me to talk to
me about.

Speaker 4 (26:39):
I'm just I'm just trying to handle the complaints that
we're getting about it. A lot of people are saying
it sounds like a large malfunctioning ac unit.

Speaker 9 (26:47):
Okay, it's very lot, like, why are you telling me
these things?

Speaker 5 (26:56):
Look?

Speaker 9 (26:56):
Are you kidding me?

Speaker 5 (26:58):
I'm trying to find a solution here.

Speaker 4 (27:00):
One of our residents, Gerald said he couldn't hear the
answers in Jeopardy because of all the noise coming from.

Speaker 5 (27:04):
Your mom's room.

Speaker 9 (27:05):
Do you know what's running through my mind right now?
The pictures you just created for me. Thanks a lot.
I'll never being able to get that out of my head.

Speaker 5 (27:13):
What are you sir?

Speaker 4 (27:14):
I apologize, I apologize, but maybe maybe you could have
a conversation with your mom about replacing the device.

Speaker 9 (27:21):
Oh I'm not I'm not having a conversation look with
her mother.

Speaker 5 (27:25):
Please calm down.

Speaker 4 (27:27):
I'm just saying maybe you could tell her to try
something a little bit more discreet.

Speaker 9 (27:31):
I'm supposed to tell my seventy seven year old mother
that her is too loud and it's waking up all
the other patients in the nursing home.

Speaker 4 (27:42):
For the new I know, I understand it sounds very
embarrassing on the surface, but many of our seniors live
a very active sexual life.

Speaker 9 (27:50):
No, I don't want to know this.

Speaker 4 (27:52):
I'm just saying your mom really knows how to make
the wall shaped.

Speaker 9 (27:56):
You're enjoying this.

Speaker 5 (27:57):
No, I am not, sir.

Speaker 9 (27:59):
Oh no, you're not. Huh.

Speaker 4 (28:00):
I'm taking this very very seriously. I want you to
know three different members of our staff have addressed it
directly with your mom, and each time they were met
with hostility. She seems seemed to be very very fond
of her device.

Speaker 9 (28:14):
First office, your job to handle this, not to call me.

Speaker 5 (28:18):
That crosses a boundary with our residence. We can't go there.

Speaker 9 (28:21):
Oh you don't think it costs the boundary. Why don't
you just sprank into a room and take it while
she's a lunch or something.

Speaker 5 (28:28):
We can't do that.

Speaker 4 (28:29):
We don't want to take away her pleasure. I'm just
saying she took some time in knitting class to make
a koozy for it. She cares very very much about
this device.

Speaker 9 (28:39):
This is the most disgusting.

Speaker 3 (28:41):
Just deal with it.

Speaker 9 (28:42):
I don't want to know.

Speaker 4 (28:43):
All right, Well, look, if you don't want to handle this,
maybe your sister Anne could have a conversation with her.

Speaker 9 (28:48):
Don't you dare call my sister and tell her anything
about this? Okay, he would not understand.

Speaker 5 (28:53):
I don't look I didn't even have to do that.

Speaker 4 (28:55):
Anne is the one who called me because she wanted
to set you up for this prank phone call?

Speaker 9 (29:01):
Who did what?

Speaker 4 (29:02):
She sets you up for this prank because my name's
actually jeff from the radio show Brook and Jeffrey in
the Morning, and we're doing a phone tap on you, Sebastian,
I'm serious, man, and set you up for this?

Speaker 5 (29:14):
God, yeah, dude, I'm so sorry.

Speaker 4 (29:17):
I got you so worked up there, but you were
really freaking out.

Speaker 5 (29:20):
It was kind of funny, funny funny.

Speaker 9 (29:23):
For you when you're talking about my mom.

Speaker 5 (29:27):
Are you saying that you don't want your mother to
have pleasure?

Speaker 9 (29:31):
Let's talk about your mom?

Speaker 5 (29:32):
And oh yeah, no, I bought hers for her.

Speaker 9 (29:36):
Oh god, don't even start the.

Speaker 8 (29:41):
Week up. Every morning was boom tap weekday mornings on
the twenties Brooking Jeffrey in the morning.

Speaker 4 (29:48):
It's Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning. And we've dealt
with family drama on this show before. Just last month,
I volunteered to give Alexis's younger brother the Birds and
the Bees talk. And now we already know, well now
he just calls me dad.

Speaker 5 (30:05):
What we really got close after that conversation.

Speaker 4 (30:11):
We understand awkward family dynamics clearly, and we're dealing with
one today after something didn't go so right at a
children's birthday party a year ago. It was so bad
that it's still causing a rift in the family that
we're being asked to settle today. I'm probably gonna have

(30:31):
to get ready to explain how certain things work. But
you'll find out what happened in your brand new awkward
Tuesday phone call right after this.

Speaker 5 (30:41):
It's awkward, It's Tuesday. It's awkward Tuesday phone call.

Speaker 4 (30:47):
A few months ago, you all might remember we did
an awkward call for one of our listeners who needed
help asking the best man at her wedding to politely
back out because they used to date and her fiance
wasn't aware of that past relationship.

Speaker 2 (31:04):
She want to want to tell us right.

Speaker 4 (31:07):
So we called the guy. Eventually they worked it out.
But now fast forward to today and guess who's emailed
the show asking for our assistance.

Speaker 2 (31:17):
Does that mean we get an update on the wedding?
Did the wedding happen?

Speaker 5 (31:20):
No, we're not going back. He has a new problem
that he wants to deal with.

Speaker 4 (31:26):
The best man Brad has called in for help with
a different situation in an awkward call.

Speaker 5 (31:31):
Brad, welcome back to the show man.

Speaker 6 (31:33):
Hey, thank you. Yeah, you guys kind of surprised me
on that last one. I figured, you know what, you
could probably be helpful on this situation.

Speaker 1 (31:40):
Yeah, you were kind of the victim of the last
Awkward Tuesday, and now you're more the protagonist here.

Speaker 9 (31:47):
I hope.

Speaker 6 (31:47):
So I don't really know what's going on.

Speaker 5 (31:50):
He's not sure what protagonist.

Speaker 2 (31:52):
Means, Brooks.

Speaker 4 (31:52):
So you gotta Yeah, you're the person who's calling needing help.

Speaker 6 (31:55):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (31:56):
Yeah, character energy, that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 4 (31:59):
You're the main character of this Awkward Tuesday phone call?
So what's the situation that you're dealing with?

Speaker 6 (32:05):
So this is a little more tame than last time,
for sure. But I'm just having an issue with my
sister Jenna right now. Quick backstory. I guess I'm divorced.
I have two kids, two boys, four and six. I
love them. They're awesome, hang out with them all the time.
They're my buddies.

Speaker 5 (32:21):
That's awesome. Yeah you have to say that though, pretty much.

Speaker 2 (32:26):
But just in case the court's listening, I love them.
I'm still I'm kidding.

Speaker 6 (32:32):
It also has to do with the situation. So, like
I found out my sister's having a birthday party for
her daughter at her house, but like my mom's the
one that told me about it. She's just like mentioning it,
like obviously, like I was going, but I didn't get
any invitation about it. I didn't hear anything about it.

Speaker 1 (32:49):
Are you sure, because my husband's always like I didn't
see that birthday invite.

Speaker 6 (32:55):
Yes, that's what I'm saying. So I figured she's my sister.
She sucks at communicating any So, like I texted her,
I didn't like outlet say it, but I was hinting
at it. I was dropping some huge hints and she
didn't say anything, which made it even more obvious.

Speaker 4 (33:09):
What you feel like you weren't invited to the party
on purpose?

Speaker 6 (33:14):
I feel like I know the reason, and that's what's
so upsetting about it.

Speaker 5 (33:18):
Really, there's a reason.

Speaker 6 (33:20):
So like she's probably upset because last time there was
like any like birthday event in our family, Like I
brought my kids and they were rowdy, I want to say.

Speaker 7 (33:32):
A couple of boys.

Speaker 6 (33:34):
I mean, yeah, they were loud, Yes, they were knocking
everything over. Yes, they have to trash their trucks on
everything and whatever they is they do. Like my old
I don't get it, he asks, Like the four year
old he's throwing tantrums because he didn't win a game.
He's like screaming how he wants to be the rotten egg,
Like it doesn't even make sense. And then my four
year old is just pouring candy on the floor and

(33:56):
then eating it off the floor.

Speaker 2 (33:58):
Your kid is doing that.

Speaker 6 (34:00):
Both of my kids are doing both of those beat it.

Speaker 5 (34:03):
Off the floor.

Speaker 1 (34:05):
So you're saying you think your sister isn't inviting your
kids to the birthday party because they're so misbehaved.

Speaker 6 (34:12):
Yeah, And I mean, like maybe I'm making it sound
like it's not like they were like lighting things on
fire or anything like God forbid. No, obviously I know
they're misbehaving, and like I know I've had to talk
to them and stuff about that. It's hard to crall
to boys when they're running around by yourself, believe me,
but their kids and like their family, like really you're
going to exclude them because like they were bad?

Speaker 8 (34:34):
One, what do you.

Speaker 2 (34:35):
Think she'd tell you that? Like sibling to sibling.

Speaker 12 (34:37):
But I think that's why, Like I don't have kids,
but when you see bad kids, you tend to blame them.

Speaker 2 (34:42):
Yeah, but if it's your family, you just have to accept.

Speaker 7 (34:45):
I don't no matter what.

Speaker 2 (34:46):
The behavior is.

Speaker 1 (34:47):
So wait, because this is their cousin's birthday, right that
they're not getting invited to.

Speaker 6 (34:51):
Saying I want them to see their cousin, like I
want them to be able to hang out, Like I
do need help convincing changing your mind.

Speaker 4 (34:58):
I think, okay, okay, you're not going to do the
thing where you just show up uninvited and crash the
party like a lot of family.

Speaker 5 (35:04):
Members would do.

Speaker 2 (35:06):
That's such a little brother.

Speaker 6 (35:07):
I want to they have a pool, like it'd be
really okay.

Speaker 5 (35:13):
You want to do the polite thing.

Speaker 4 (35:14):
And actually it sounds like call your sister and ask
permission to bring your children.

Speaker 6 (35:19):
Yes, I would like to squash the beef as we
would say.

Speaker 1 (35:22):
Okay, that's I feel like that's a mature move, like
actually talk about it in a family instead of just
everybody talking behind each other's backs. So you got like
four other group chats don't include each other in it.

Speaker 4 (35:35):
Okay, but you feel like you're going to get pushed
back from your sister and that's what you're looking for
advice on.

Speaker 6 (35:40):
Uh yeah, my sister can be terrifying a little bit.

Speaker 7 (35:45):
Yeah so wait, so what's the like mission?

Speaker 6 (35:48):
I guess put it all out there so it's not awkward,
and then like I guess, like I would assume that
it would just be business as usual.

Speaker 1 (35:56):
It's a little touchy too, because you don't want to
start more drama from a phone call like this.

Speaker 2 (36:00):
There's already enough. It sounds like in your family.

Speaker 6 (36:03):
Yeah, I don't want to be like I'm sorry and
then just assume I'm invited either.

Speaker 1 (36:07):
Oh you you actually want to apologize for your kids
behavior last time?

Speaker 6 (36:11):
I mean, if you guys think I need to do that, like,
that's what I'll do. But like I'll take your advice.
But I've tried that route and she's pretty stuck in
her way.

Speaker 5 (36:18):
Okay, I mean it sounds delightful.

Speaker 4 (36:20):
It is her party, her house, her rule, so her pool.
We're looking for her blessing to get them over and
if she says no, then we'll unleash your children on
her house to finish the job that they started.

Speaker 2 (36:32):
It's time with fire, yes.

Speaker 1 (36:33):
Yeah, yeah, don't get out when you got to go
to the bathroom in that pool?

Speaker 2 (36:38):
What are going to be in the pool?

Speaker 5 (36:44):
Didn't get that, but I got it.

Speaker 4 (36:45):
Anyway, We'll come with some advice for you and let
you make your awkward Tuesday phone call to your sister
to get your children invited to her daughter's party.

Speaker 5 (36:54):
Your awkward Tuesday phone call coming up right after this.

Speaker 9 (36:57):
Thank you?

Speaker 5 (36:57):
All right? Man, hold on, it's awkward.

Speaker 8 (37:00):
It's Tuesday.

Speaker 5 (37:02):
It's awkward Tuesday phone calls.

Speaker 4 (37:05):
Science has once claimed it was impossible. MythBusters refuse to
even test it. Wow, the question, could candy infuse children
spend three hours at a birthday party and be somewhat
well behaved?

Speaker 5 (37:22):
It's scary.

Speaker 8 (37:23):
You know.

Speaker 7 (37:23):
We don't answered.

Speaker 4 (37:24):
We do because it happened a year ago for Brad
when he brought his children, four and six years old
over to their cousin's.

Speaker 5 (37:31):
Birthday party and the two of.

Speaker 4 (37:33):
Them ended up causing chaos and mischief. Yeah, it's all
the stuff little boys tend to do. So a little kids, right,
And I need to ask you, Brad, didn't your children
break anything while they were over at their aunt's house.

Speaker 6 (37:48):
I mean there was a broken lamp when we were leaving,
but I didn't see what happened to it?

Speaker 1 (37:53):
Oh, you're just like the boys watch Responsibility.

Speaker 12 (37:58):
Thousand dollars lamp and she's yeah, you owe me money.

Speaker 5 (38:02):
And his children did leave with a light bulb that day.
But you can't connect the two of them. Okay, yeah,
that's fine.

Speaker 4 (38:08):
Now, maybe Brook has some advice for you before we
call your sister and try to convince her to let
your children attend this year's party, hopefully, Brook, what do you.

Speaker 1 (38:17):
Think I mean, I think when it comes to an
older sister, what you need to do is butter her up.

Speaker 5 (38:23):
And this is getting really gross.

Speaker 1 (38:26):
I'm saying, make or feel good, make or feel wanted needed,
that's what all old. Yeah, you need to take the
angle of you need parenting advice okay from her the expert.

Speaker 7 (38:38):
Yeah, right, like to.

Speaker 4 (38:40):
Know that they're smarter to Yeah, have you been doing
things to help correct your boys behavior?

Speaker 6 (38:44):
Yeah, I mean I've been trying to do like some
stuff here and there, like really trying to like get
them to hone in and stuff.

Speaker 4 (38:50):
But okay, that might be worth bringing up to your
sister if we can get her on the phone.

Speaker 5 (38:53):
But Jose, what do you think do you have advice?

Speaker 7 (38:55):
Well, kind of the same.

Speaker 12 (38:56):
Anytime I want something from my sister, I buy her present.

Speaker 2 (39:00):
Oh, he's not the same.

Speaker 12 (39:03):
During the call, just tell her you have a bunch
of chocolate covered strawberries for anytime she wants, and immediately
she'll be like, oh yeah.

Speaker 5 (39:11):
Come on over, chocolate covers strawberries to your.

Speaker 7 (39:14):
Sister every Mother's Day, I Center and her birthday.

Speaker 5 (39:16):
It's kind of a sexy gift my mom too. Yeah chocolate.

Speaker 4 (39:22):
Okay, so maybe yes, bribe your sister with some sexy chocolates.

Speaker 5 (39:26):
What do you think?

Speaker 6 (39:28):
Yeah, I don't think I want to leave the sexy
chocolates out of it.

Speaker 5 (39:30):
Okay, normal, normal chocolates and normal for us.

Speaker 6 (39:33):
I'm gonna take a bumbo platter from each of y'all.
She's smarter than me. She loves to rub that in
my face, so let's just put that angle.

Speaker 2 (39:42):
Okay, we're getting an invite at the end of this
for the boys.

Speaker 4 (39:45):
You know, Brook wants to see if her kids can
be invited too, so we'll work on that afterwards.

Speaker 2 (39:49):
But it sounds like though his sister has some good
goodie bags. I'm not gonna lie. She sounds very type A.

Speaker 4 (39:54):
Okay, we'll get your invite after we do this call
with Brad.

Speaker 5 (39:57):
So I'm gonna die your sister's number.

Speaker 4 (39:59):
You can use whatever advice you want to, but we'll
back away and let you do this.

Speaker 5 (40:03):
You ready, man?

Speaker 11 (40:04):
All right?

Speaker 6 (40:04):
Fingers crossed?

Speaker 5 (40:05):
Okay, good luck? Here we go.

Speaker 6 (40:16):
Hello, Hey, Jen, what's up?

Speaker 9 (40:21):
Hi? Brad?

Speaker 6 (40:23):
Yeah it's Brad.

Speaker 14 (40:24):
What namor are you calling from? Did you get a
new phone or something?

Speaker 6 (40:28):
No, no, that's not important right now. Look, I just
you have a second real quick. I think if I
could just talk to you real quick.

Speaker 14 (40:38):
Yeah, sure, go ahead.

Speaker 9 (40:39):
What's up? Okay?

Speaker 5 (40:40):
Cool?

Speaker 6 (40:40):
Yeah, she want me to take a few minutes.

Speaker 5 (40:42):
Like so.

Speaker 6 (40:45):
I heard from mom you're having a party, she tells you.
Yeah she did, because like I was just talking to
her about that and then like it kind of came
up and she was asking what time I was going
to get there.

Speaker 14 (41:06):
Well, yeah, yeah, we are having a party.

Speaker 6 (41:11):
Okay, So like long pause again, I uh, did my
invite get like lost or something?

Speaker 5 (41:19):
Well?

Speaker 14 (41:21):
No, no, non, exactly.

Speaker 10 (41:23):
Come on, Brad, you remember what happened last year when
when the kids were over.

Speaker 6 (41:28):
Dude, I know, but like listen, that's not going to
happen again. Come on, Oh, can I trust that the
kids are older now, they're a whole year older. They're
four and six. Now, A lot has changed in the
past year. Come on, Brad, dude, I know it wasn't good.

Speaker 10 (41:45):
I'm telling you that they literally attacked our roomba with
the tennis rackets, but like that was actually funny.

Speaker 6 (41:54):
Come on, how was that funny? Because they hit it
a bunch and it was making weird noises and stuff.
I thought you were laughing.

Speaker 9 (42:01):
What are you talking about, Brad, No, that's not okay.

Speaker 6 (42:05):
Like, look, that's not the point. The point is we
are family, Like we should have talked about this a
long time ago and not let it fester like this.
I want our kids to hang out like they're literally cousins,
Like what are we doing here being petty?

Speaker 14 (42:17):
I mean I want that too, but it's just your voice, Brad,
no offense. But they're like walking little nightmares.

Speaker 6 (42:26):
I want to say you're wrong, but they are. And
like I've done some stuff about it, and they've made
a lot of progress. Like I was looking on YouTube
a lot, and I found these awesome like dog training
videos that they actually love. So I've just been using
that and it works. Like it's.

Speaker 10 (42:42):
Brad, you cannot train your kids like dogs.

Speaker 6 (42:46):
They act like dogs sometimes, So why wouldn't I just
watch these videos? Honestly?

Speaker 7 (42:50):
Who I can't imagine them licking themselves.

Speaker 2 (42:56):
You're talking about your own children.

Speaker 14 (43:00):
Brad, What is going on?

Speaker 6 (43:01):
Who are these people?

Speaker 2 (43:08):
Respond to?

Speaker 5 (43:11):
Jenna?

Speaker 4 (43:12):
I need to actually tell you're on the radio right now.
We're a show called Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning.
Oh yeah, Brad, Brad, he reached out to us for
this segment we do.

Speaker 5 (43:23):
It's called an awkward Tuesday phone call.

Speaker 6 (43:26):
Okay, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4 (43:28):
He just didn't know how to handle this situation going
on where his kids weren't invited to your daughter's birthday party.

Speaker 10 (43:36):
Well, if you.

Speaker 14 (43:36):
Saw what his kids did last year, you would understand.
People literally left the party early because his kids were
causing such a wreckage cause of the Wait.

Speaker 1 (43:46):
A minute, listen, and you are the aunt in this situation.

Speaker 2 (43:51):
I think it takes a village.

Speaker 1 (43:52):
You have to take some responsibility, right, it's also your
family exact in that way.

Speaker 10 (43:57):
I only have so much control over these kids.

Speaker 14 (43:59):
I'm trying to run a party. I can't be babysitting.

Speaker 11 (44:01):
That's his job.

Speaker 6 (44:03):
But not ask you like co parent or anything. But like,
if you have any like helpful hints, that would be
super helpful.

Speaker 14 (44:12):
I don't have the lead with that part, but well,
let's start by not using YouTube dog training videos.

Speaker 2 (44:18):
Yeah, good fun.

Speaker 5 (44:20):
There might be some merit in that you tell your
kid to sit and stay.

Speaker 7 (44:23):
No, yes, no, no, no.

Speaker 4 (44:26):
Okay, okay, fine, But Jenna, can you help out your
brother here because he's kind of heartbroken over the fact
that your guys' kids aren't going to be able to
hang out for a birthday party.

Speaker 5 (44:37):
It's important, they're family.

Speaker 2 (44:38):
And yeah, they're your nephews. Don't you want to help
guide them in the right way?

Speaker 14 (44:43):
I mean, I would love to, but I also don't
want to lose precious, valuable furniture like the lamp Auntie
gave us before she passed.

Speaker 6 (44:51):
Oh no, you can't prove that no one of us
heard it break. So how did it break?

Speaker 8 (44:56):
No?

Speaker 6 (44:57):
I didn't do it. He didn't do it.

Speaker 2 (44:59):
The apple doesn't fall from.

Speaker 7 (45:03):
Brad.

Speaker 10 (45:03):
Yeah, I see where they get it from.

Speaker 5 (45:05):
Really, Brad, you talk to your sister.

Speaker 6 (45:07):
You really want to have them be those the strange
cousins that don't even know each other, like the No,
I want to be the cousins that we meet at.

Speaker 5 (45:14):
The park where they can't break not your.

Speaker 6 (45:16):
House, right, maybe baby steps, Maybe like get a bounce
house or something and they can just kind of like
run alock in that.

Speaker 7 (45:24):
To pop a bounce house.

Speaker 14 (45:26):
Curiously, that's all I need. Then the tip over that
bounce house with everybody else's kids.

Speaker 6 (45:30):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 (45:31):
Okay, yeah, okay, okay.

Speaker 1 (45:33):
Is there any time before the party where the four
of you could get together and like party.

Speaker 6 (45:39):
I'll even bring Chalco with covered strawberries if you want,
like anything.

Speaker 14 (45:44):
You know how much I love topic cover strawberry.

Speaker 10 (45:48):
Oh god, Okay, look, Brad, you can bring the kids,
but they cannot go in the house, and that's your
responsibility to make sure they do not go in my house.

Speaker 5 (46:00):
No, they can sing Happy Birthday through the windows.

Speaker 2 (46:05):
She has a pool, all right.

Speaker 4 (46:08):
Well that's that's a nice compromise that she's offering for you.

Speaker 11 (46:11):
Brad.

Speaker 4 (46:12):
You're at least allowed on the premises bathroom outside.

Speaker 6 (46:16):
I mean, we'll take it for now and we'll just
figure out a way to get inside or something.

Speaker 2 (46:20):
I don't kids know.

Speaker 5 (46:22):
They're going to do the opposite.

Speaker 1 (46:23):
Yeah, you mean those dog training videos don't work, all right?

Speaker 4 (46:27):
The important thing is we're reaching a compromise here, and
it sounds like, Brad, your kids are going to be
allowed to attend their cousin's party.

Speaker 1 (46:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (46:33):
Perfect.

Speaker 6 (46:33):
And that was before I bought them a leash.

Speaker 14 (46:35):
Yeah, hey, bring the leashes. You might need to tie
him up.

Speaker 2 (46:41):
I was gonna say, Jenna, you better be careful. It
sounds like these kids are going to try to mark their.

Speaker 10 (46:45):
Territory, as I'm already knowing Freaking Jeffrey in the morning.

Speaker 4 (46:51):
Getting a lot of text into seventy five nine two
saying that compromise is even worse than where we started.
How mean your kids stay outside the park already and
peeking through the windows?

Speaker 2 (47:02):
Come on, most of the party will be outside. They
have a pool.

Speaker 12 (47:05):
I still worry about the bathroom now, especially with the pool,
where are the kids gonna go?

Speaker 1 (47:09):
I worry about who's giving these kids boundaries, because I
don't think it's a dad, and it's definitely not the anty.

Speaker 5 (47:14):
Where's the mother invited to this? Clearly? But I have
a feeling.

Speaker 4 (47:18):
Once they do get over to the ant's house, they're
gonna be okay. She'll either soften up and let them inside,
or she'll just be terrified that they're lifting up their
leg and peeing on the bushes from all those doctrin
and videos they.

Speaker 2 (47:30):
Learned it from their dad.

Speaker 12 (47:31):
No, honestly, if they have a bad day and they're
not good kids, are they ever gonna be invited back
to their ant's house.

Speaker 7 (47:37):
There's a lot of pressure on.

Speaker 2 (47:38):
We need an update.

Speaker 5 (47:39):
Yeah, yeah, Well.

Speaker 4 (47:41):
We'll stay in touch and we do wish Brad the
best of luck raising his kids. Good luck for sure
at those parties. You can find all of our Awkward
Tuesday videos by the way up on our YouTube page
