That's always so good. How many people listen at work?
Speaker 3 (00:51):
I know.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
I don't don't pay attention to like we feel you do.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
We make the world less productive?
Speaker 2 (00:55):
I think so probably, and I like it. I like
it as long as we're bringing happiness. All right, let's
start this full show.
Speaker 6 (01:01):
I hope you got your passport handy because we're going
international for today's Hero of the Week.
Speaker 5 (01:09):
Yeah, I don't speak Spanish Sopefully.
Speaker 6 (01:12):
It's like it's a Brookie Jeffrey in the morning. We're
going to an English speaking country today with Jose. You
never know. Today's hero is a guy in Ireland named Kieran,
and recently Kieran went to a bachelor party for one
of his buddies, but was struggling to find a good
(01:33):
parking spot close to where the event was happening. Okay, okay,
until he finally found one about a thirty minute walk away.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
God, I hate that.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
How many times he had to circle to just even
find that spot not far away?
Speaker 2 (01:48):
You have given up your.
Speaker 6 (01:49):
Right right you walk there at a great night. But
then the fun stopped because afterwards, for the life of him,
Kieran couldn't remember where he parked his car.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
I mean, let's be honest, Karen, at the end of
a bachelor party, let's not be driving.
Speaker 6 (02:05):
Home a picture. Yeah, he was looking and looking up
and down every street.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Jose struggle.
Speaker 6 (02:13):
He could not find where he parked his car, so
we called a friend. They started driving around the town
for five hours searching for his car.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
You know, he's just on his keyfop.
Speaker 6 (02:26):
Please no luck what Eventually Kieren had to go to work,
took the bus. Then after his shift he'd go back
to the area and keep searching for his car.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
To assume it's a toad.
Speaker 7 (02:38):
Right.
Speaker 6 (02:39):
This went on every day for three straight weeks. What
no clue where he had parked his car that night,
and he called the local to lots. They didn't have it. No.
Finally he called a local radio station begging them for help,
and after describing it on the air, a listener was
able to locate his car for him.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
It does still matter. Yes, we could be car finders.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
That's what we could be.
Speaker 6 (03:06):
That's why for restoring hope and radio Kieran is our
hero of the wigs and yeah forgetting stuff. Now it's
time to move on. You're gonna get to the shack
collar question of the day and I'm just gonna sit
back and enjoy the vocal stylings of Trivia and wrap
(03:29):
Icon Digital God Mode, Jake Ion, show us your work.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
It's from Christmas.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
On this day. Back in eighteen ninety nine, a French
guy named Camille Janazi did something absolutely bonkers for the time.
He became the first person ever to drive a road
vehicle over one hundred miles per hour. Fast forward to today,
Brooks easily hits that mark every morning while driving down
(03:58):
the emergency vehicles only lanes to avoid paying tolls.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Bye, today there was an actual emergency vehicle. Oh no,
I just followed it. Yeah, it's a safe distance.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
So to celebrate that speedy milestone today, we're going to
be playing a special.
Speaker 6 (04:16):
Goer or slower edition.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
Of twenty of twenty. So you guys, say number one
through twenty. I will tell you about something that may
or may not be able to reach speeds of one
hundred miles an hour. Okay, have to tell me if
it's a goer and can hit a hundred or slower
and can't. We'll start with the woman who is by
(04:40):
far the fastest mammal on this show by land speed.
Alexis your speed selection is the peregrine falcon in diving mode?
Is it a goer over one hundred miles per hour
or slower?
Speaker 2 (04:54):
So easy? He's such a jeff question. Easy.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
This is my one's favorite animal, well tied with a
penguin that is granted so easy.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
And everyone knows that you're not gonna know him if
he doesn't go one hundred miles per hour.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Why would you know a slow word?
Speaker 1 (05:10):
So he's a.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
Goer, Alexis says goer. It's over two hundred miles when
it dies, right, Jeff, that's right.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Okay, I'm going to go number seven.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Brook. Your speed selection is a simple human sneeze. When
you say a normal sneeze, is a goer or slower?
Speaker 8 (05:30):
Your husband?
Speaker 2 (05:31):
God, No, that's just loud. That's a decibel thing.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
No louder mean faster.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
No, God, it feels like it goes on forever.
Speaker 6 (05:39):
When it's so loud, does it come out faster? Like
in tennis if you're supposed to hit harder when you grunt,
So does it come out faster if you make a noise?
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Why does it get louder the older you get to
It doesn't make any sense to me.
Speaker 6 (05:51):
No, even me, sneeze are getting loud because it hurts
your whole body.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
I don't know why I had one hundred would be
really fast. I think slower.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
According to the airspeed out of nostrils. The scientific consensus
is about thirty to fifty miles per hour quick ones.
Speaker 6 (06:06):
I want to be like Jose.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Three and seven are off the board.
Speaker 8 (06:09):
Okay, let's go eight.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
The six flags King Da Ka roller coaster that's six
flags in New Jersey. It's the fastest in the US.
Is it a goer or slower?
Speaker 8 (06:21):
So I actually follow a lot of like what would
you call them?
Speaker 6 (06:26):
Theme park pages?
Speaker 9 (06:27):
Thank you?
Speaker 5 (06:27):
And there's a guy who's obsessed with his ride and
he always talks.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
About is this specific?
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Yeah on the Kingdom Kong Kingda Ka King Da Ka, And.
Speaker 8 (06:36):
I gotta say it's a goer.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
That goes one hundred and twenty eight miles, which is
an exception for roller coasters. Most coasters go sixty to
ninety miles.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Actually, your face is just plastered against the back walls.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
You guys are three for three. Brooke knew hers because
her son knows birds. Jose knew his because he knows
Facebook pages. I'm gonna ban you guys from having any friends.
I don't want beat you to Jeffery. It's your turn. Three,
seven and eight are off the board.
Speaker 6 (07:04):
Fourteen.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Your speed selection is the cheetah running at max speed.
Would you say it's goer or slower the cheetah.
Speaker 6 (07:13):
It seems like a trick question.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Yeah, really trick about it.
Speaker 6 (07:17):
The cheetah is the fastest land animal at like sixty
miles an.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Hour, So you just answered your question.
Speaker 10 (07:24):
Is it sixty?
Speaker 6 (07:27):
It's common knowledge, but I think there's some sort of
trick here. I'm gonna say slower.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
Top out about seven.
Speaker 6 (07:37):
Your face still looks like I still.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
So we're back to Alexis need a number nine. Your
speed selection is a sky diver in belly to earth position,
hurling towards Earth. Would you say it's goer or slower?
Speaker 1 (07:52):
I love that means yeah, he just means before the
parachute's open.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
All the photos they're cheeks are hold up. You got
the funny faces when people buy the photos?
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Oh faces?
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Okay, I'll say goer? Why not?
Speaker 3 (08:08):
Alexis says, oh why not?
Speaker 9 (08:10):
Sure?
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Just yeah, she's gonna get it exactly. You guys have
gone five for five on goer or slower, and I
now am the loser of today's.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Starting to trend? Does this happen a little bit ago?
Speaker 9 (08:26):
Yesterdays?
Speaker 6 (08:27):
Are we getting smarter?
Speaker 3 (08:28):
No more friends? Okay, tomorrow tomorrow, don't make any friends,
don't talk to friends, nothing, but we have all.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Falcon questions tomorrow Maybe maybe.
Speaker 6 (08:36):
Jake, you're getting shocked. Somebody wanted to hear the song
Fast car by Tracy chap.
Speaker 3 (08:41):
So remember when we were driving driving in your car,
speed so fast, I fella, I was drunk. City lights
lay before us, and you're arm building nice wrap around
my shoulder and.
Speaker 6 (08:55):
Wrapped God right there. That was your shot collar question
of the day. We got your phone tap coming up
in just a few.
Speaker 11 (09:01):
Minutes, Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 6 (09:05):
Every team has that one player who everyone loves, but
we also know they're kind of a liability. No, like
the one kid on the soccer team who always shoots
at the wrong goal. Yeah, no matter how many times
you tell them, or that one coworker who's always a
little bit too gossipy during the business call with the CEO.
(09:27):
Oh and on this radio squad, our lovable liability is
Brooke Fox.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
I thought they were going to say that too.
Speaker 6 (09:37):
She is fun, she is bubbly, she is smart, but
she will threaten the referee and pour gasoline onto his
car if the call doesn't go her way. Deserves She's
just got that competitive spirit for trivia and it's gonna
go her way or else. Coming up right now, before
(10:04):
we get into the game here, just want to say
thank you to all the new players who are boyve
enough to call in and take on Brook Because we
do get lots and lots of return players, which is great,
but it's always nice to have new people come in
and try and take her on. So if you're somebody
new who's never played before, don't be shy, call in
(10:24):
sweet talk our producer producer Boyd on the phone and
see if you can get your name on the list,
just like our new player Christine did for her very
first time in radio trivia. Christine, Welcome to the show.
Speaker 12 (10:38):
Hi, thank you. I don't know how much of a
sweet talker I am, but I'm.
Speaker 10 (10:41):

Speaker 6 (10:46):
Yeah, you know he loves Adamby.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
He's I mean, you guys don't hear from producer Boyd
very often, which.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
By the way, it's Boyd, not boy Yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Yeah, people constantly think they were calling in producer boy.
Speaker 6 (10:58):
I think it's funnier that way. I like it betters
producer boy boy with a D. Yeah that's fine. Well, Christine,
what made you call in and try for the first
time today?
Speaker 12 (11:08):
Well, my daughter Leona was with me. We're on our
way to school and if we Uh, listen to you
guys every morning, and every morning she says, you gotta
call you got to call him on Brow.
Speaker 6 (11:23):
You've got a live audience for you, Christine, So no pressure,
Brooks leaving the studio thirty seconds on the clock to
answer as many questions as possible. If you don't know when,
you could say pass. But you have to beat her
outright if you want to win. Are you ready?

You guys are both welcome back on the show anytime.
Speaker 11 (15:46):
Okay, Thank you, guys, Brooke and Jeffrey. In the morning.
Speaker 6 (15:51):
Most people will tell small lies to their grandparents just
to make them happy, you know, things like Grandma of course,
I'm wearing that wool total neck that you knit for me.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Every single day.
Speaker 6 (16:05):
No, I don't have any tattoos or not. I don't
care about the inheritance. I'm visiting you because I love you.
It makes her happy. But one of our listeners told
a much bigger lie to his grandmother, and he did
it for actually a very sweet reason. And now a
full year later, he's still living it and the guilt
(16:28):
is eating him a lot. You're gonna hear in a
brand new mass speaker coming up right after this.
Speaker 9 (16:34):
You hear me confession I can't take back arms.
Speaker 6 (16:42):
Mouse speaker text to seventy five nine, who says, for
the last ten or so years, whenever my husband and
I vote by mail, I always take our ballots with
me to the grocery store so I can just drop
them in the mailbox there. But I only realized last
week it's not really a mailbox I've been using. It's
a food donation.
Speaker 9 (17:03):
Ba.
Speaker 6 (17:04):
I am so embarrassed. I can't tell my husband our
votes haven't counted for ten years.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Yeah, that you've insulted the poor food donation.
Speaker 6 (17:16):
Oh my god.
Speaker 8 (17:17):
Some guys like, is this an edible voting?
Speaker 6 (17:21):
I just know the election conspiracy folks are gonna go
nuts for that quote there.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
Yeah, but our vote didn't count.
Speaker 6 (17:27):
Yeah, exactly, somebody voted for an Apple corps. Oh, this
is why we keep listeners anonymous here on the mass Speaker,
so they can confess to rigging and throwing government elections
guilt free on our show. Let's meet today's secret keeper,
who's chosen to go by the name Perry today, Perry.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
Welcome, is your last name? Winkle?
Speaker 9 (17:50):
No confession?
Speaker 6 (17:52):
You got a half laugh from him, Brooke, that was
that was good. That's okay.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
Just try to lighten the mood because you sound kind
of serious.
Speaker 6 (18:00):
Okay, the voice changer is on. You are the mass speaker.
Whenever you're ready, let's hear your confession.
Speaker 9 (18:04):
Man, all right, I need to make a pretty serious confession.
I'm glad you guys are asking my voice.
Speaker 6 (18:09):
Okay, okay, So what's up.
Speaker 9 (18:11):
Last year, my grandmother got really sick.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
I'm sorry, thank you.
Speaker 9 (18:19):
So she was in the hospital. It was getting serious
that doctors were telling us that they weren't very optimistic
about her chances.
Speaker 6 (18:28):
Yeah, that's so hard, I know.
Speaker 9 (18:30):
So I went into the hospital to see her, thinking
this is probably the last time you're want to see her.
And one thing my grandmother she always wanted was for
me to fall in love and get married and have
a family.
Speaker 8 (18:45):
Oh Grandma, she actually wanted that.
Speaker 9 (18:50):
She did. She always would ask me about it and stuff,
and I just wanted to make her happy. So I
told her that I got engaged. Okay, but I didn't.
There was no real girl.
Speaker 6 (19:07):
Yeah, we're all shocked.
Speaker 9 (19:09):
Wait why I showed her like a random picture of
the draw on Instagram and I was like, yeah, this
is my fiancee.
Speaker 6 (19:20):
I thought I was going to show Brooks picture.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Maybe. I mean, it's kind of like, no harm, no failure. Yeah,
your heart's in the right place.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
I mean, you shouldn't be lying to her, but you're
doing it for the right reasons.
Speaker 9 (19:32):
A couple of weeks went by and she started getting better.
Speaker 5 (19:36):
Oh I want to say, oh no, but that's a
good thing.
Speaker 9 (19:39):
Yeah, yeah, no, it was a good thing. Everyone was
very happy. A couple more weeks but she got out
of the hospital.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Oh my god, what stubborn old lady.
Speaker 6 (19:49):
I was inspired by the news that her grandson is
about to fall in love and get married.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Wait, I mean, like, you're so happy but you're probably
also kind of freaking out right.
Speaker 9 (19:58):
Yeah, like she thinks I'm I'm still engaged.
Speaker 6 (20:01):
To this day.
Speaker 9 (20:03):
Yeah, it's been a year.
Speaker 8 (20:04):
Oh my god, why can't you be like most grandma's
and have a bad.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Memory when you finally actually do get a girlfriend.
Speaker 9 (20:14):
Though that's not even like the thing I'm worried about.
That would be great because I could just kind of
fudge the picture a little bit, or maybe I don't know, or.
Speaker 6 (20:22):
Maybe blame it on her memory, like no, Grandma, Yes,
she must be like curious about it over if it's
gone on for the past year.
Speaker 9 (20:28):
Yeah, I mean she asks me all the time. She's like,
how's mad? It's sin she remembers her name, and I
keep showing her, Yeah, I keep showing her the same picture.
I'm like, look, she's out the brunch with these same girls,
like she loves going to brunch, grandma, you know, like.
Speaker 6 (20:42):
The same brunch photo.
Speaker 9 (20:44):
Brunch picture. Yeah. Remember he's not that great, but like
she's no, like a brunch group.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
So you're gonna get how have you not gotten outed
by another family member?

No, my mom knows, Like I told my mom, and
my mom's like, you can not tell.
Speaker 6 (21:00):
Her they left you like.
Speaker 9 (21:05):
You will that might kill her. Yeah, you guys, I
don't even think like she made a Christmas stocking.
Speaker 6 (21:14):
With her name on it, expects she.
Speaker 9 (21:17):
Gave me a birthday card for her.
Speaker 6 (21:22):
But you at least pocketed the money out of the car.
I mean, yeah, that's fine, you're going.
Speaker 9 (21:29):
To throw it away?
Speaker 2 (21:30):
What do you tell her?
Speaker 9 (21:31):
What?
Speaker 6 (21:32):
It gets worse?
Speaker 9 (21:33):
It gets worse. The worst thing is the last time
I saw her, she told me that she wrote Madison
into her will.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
Oh okay, now we may need to like Madison may
need to cheat on you or something, you know, like, no.
Speaker 9 (21:47):
No, that would kill her. That would kill I'm like,
I'm considering hiring an actress at this.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Point, Okay, James Madison. That that's rough man.
Speaker 9 (21:58):
Yeah. I never thought trying to do something I would
turn out so badly.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
So when are you going to send her her your
wedding invitation?
Speaker 9 (22:05):
Or I don't know.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
I can't wait to see your guys. Grandbabies, I mean
her great grandchildren are going to be a door.
Speaker 6 (22:14):
Oh yeah, you must be on the like the dating
apps right now with a filter for only Madisons at
this point, right.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
It just has to be a pet name Jeffrey.
Speaker 6 (22:22):
Oh, yeah, yeah, Madison is just.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Her name's Rebecca, but I call her Madison.
Speaker 6 (22:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (22:30):
I keep trying to come up with stuff. Oh man,
the longer it goes.
Speaker 8 (22:36):
I feel like you're really going to meet a girl.
Speaker 5 (22:37):
And at this point you're gonna have to have a
fake grandma to introduce her to you.
Speaker 9 (22:40):
Now.
Speaker 6 (22:41):
Yeah, you know you got a lot ahead of you, dude.
We wish you like. Yeah, here's the good news. You
have been in a successful, committed relationship for an entire
year now, which's more than most couples that I know.
Even if she is imaginary that.
Speaker 9 (23:01):
Up.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
Hey, listen, this couple is perfect today.
Speaker 6 (23:04):
So we are proud of you.

Your phone TAP's coming up.
Speaker 11 (23:18):
Brook and Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 6 (23:19):
It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. And in today's Frank,
we call a woman whose elderly mother has an in
home care provider who checks in on her and her
parrot from time to time cute, and that person had
to go on vacation for a week, which gave us
the perfect opportunity to provide a trust in filling for her. Oh,
(23:40):
someone who will be responsible, positive and wreak a little
bit of havoc at least on this call in your phone?
Tap right now another twenty.
Speaker 8 (23:56):
Hello, Hi, I'm looking for Regina.
Speaker 10 (24:01):
This is Regina calling.
Speaker 5 (24:03):
Oh, good morning. My name's Bobby Titsworth. I'm filling in
as your mom's in home caregiver this week.
Speaker 10 (24:09):
Oh okay, Hi.
Speaker 6 (24:12):
I'm the new guy.
Speaker 8 (24:13):
Just the feeling, I guess.
Speaker 5 (24:15):
First of all, I just wanted to say your mother
is a wonderful woman.
Speaker 8 (24:21):
I'm sure you know this.
Speaker 3 (24:23):
That's great to hear.
Speaker 13 (24:24):
Yeah, everybody loves her.
Speaker 6 (24:26):
Oh everybody?
Speaker 9 (24:27):
Huh.
Speaker 5 (24:28):
I thought she was more of an acquired taste. What
I digress?
Speaker 11 (24:33):
Like.
Speaker 8 (24:33):
The reason for my call is I'm pretty sure she
ate her parent.
Speaker 6 (24:37):
Wait, what what are you talking about?
Speaker 5 (24:40):
Yeah, I've been looking around her place. Oh my god,
there it is false alarm. I found him behind the microwave.
Oh my god, there you are nibbles.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
Get over here.
Speaker 6 (24:53):
He does nibbles.
Speaker 13 (24:55):
He had me. I thought that really happened.
Speaker 6 (24:57):
Yeah, sorry.
Speaker 5 (24:58):
I saw some feathers on what your mom's dinner plates,
and I thought, oh, yikes, I shouldn't have been late today.
Speaker 6 (25:03):
Huh. You really scared me there, you and me both.
Speaker 5 (25:10):
So so anyway, I know I'm only here for a week,
but I feel like I do need to bring something
else to your attention while I have you on the phone.
Speaker 6 (25:17):
Okay, something worse than my mom ate the parrot, and
I don't know you be the judge.
Speaker 5 (25:23):
I'm pretty sure I caught your mom trying to teach
Nibbles things she shouldn't be teaching a bird.
Speaker 10 (25:30):
Wait, what are you talking about? What do you mean?
Speaker 5 (25:33):
I'll give you an example, things like hey, bg Roy Yeah,
and like what.
Speaker 6 (25:39):
Was the other?
Speaker 9 (25:40):
Like?
Speaker 8 (25:40):
Uh, nice legs in those shorts.
Speaker 6 (25:44):
Look, my mom would never ever say things like that. Wait,
so you've never heard that before?
Speaker 12 (25:50):
No, my mom, that's not how she is.
Speaker 5 (25:53):
I mean, I know, I know she seems so sweet
and innocent, but I saw this yesterday. She was training
new to cat call the ups guy. No, yeah, he
was so shocked he dropped his package.
Speaker 6 (26:06):
He did not he did?
Speaker 5 (26:07):
And then nibble squeak right, bend over and get a gorgeous.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Rot Okay, this is I don't know what is happening here.
Speaker 12 (26:15):
You're supposed to take care of her well being, ma'am.
Speaker 8 (26:17):
I think you're confused here.
Speaker 5 (26:19):
I was a witness to the sexual exploitation of a
mail carrier.
Speaker 6 (26:23):
Oh my god, I'm a victim.
Speaker 8 (26:24):
I'm trying to help everybody.
Speaker 6 (26:26):
You're not helping this situation. I don't know what you
want me to do. I've never heard of anything like
this before. I don't know.
Speaker 8 (26:33):
I just want to give you a heads up my opinion.
Speaker 5 (26:35):
This bird is a full on creep and I don't
think your mom's helping a kidding me.
Speaker 6 (26:40):
But here's the deal. I don't think it's too late.
Speaker 8 (26:42):
I have a plan, which is what every time your
mom uses the restroom.
Speaker 5 (26:47):
I coach the bird how to flatter the mailman, but
not hit on it.
Speaker 13 (26:52):
What the hell are you talking about?
Speaker 6 (26:54):
He's like, looks like you're working out. Keep off the diet,
big boy, right?
Speaker 3 (26:58):
Oh, seem like you have good self estate.
Speaker 6 (27:00):
Do you think teaching the parrot to say more things
to the ups guy is a good thing?
Speaker 5 (27:05):
More positive things? Not so cat Collie, you know what
I mean? More like, Oh, nice package, but not the
one you're holding. It's the other one.
Speaker 10 (27:14):
I do see.
Speaker 6 (27:15):
I don't even know what to say.
Speaker 5 (27:17):
I mean, you could say thank you for this phone
tap we just did on you.
Speaker 8 (27:20):
Wait what sorry, there's a break phone call.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
My bad.
Speaker 5 (27:25):
This is Jose for the radio show Brook and Jeffrey
in the Morning, and this is a phone tap.
Speaker 13 (27:30):
God, wait, who did this?
Speaker 8 (27:33):
Your sister Shannon set you up?
Speaker 14 (27:35):
Oh my.
Speaker 13 (27:38):
Oh god, she said.
Speaker 5 (27:39):
Your mom's careagiters taking a week off, and you're all
worried about it.
Speaker 6 (27:42):
I'm sure it's getting fine.
Speaker 11 (27:44):
Okay, Oh my god.
Speaker 8 (27:47):
Keep that parrot in line.
Speaker 6 (27:49):
I'm gonna kill microwave himself. He's crawling in so excited.
Speaker 8 (27:56):
This is a bad parent, bad parent.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
I'll tell you.
Speaker 8 (28:01):
I got a bad feeling about this bird.
Speaker 11 (28:05):
The week up. Every morning was foom taps weekday mornings
on the twenties, Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning.
Speaker 6 (28:13):
What do you say to your best friend if you
know they're about to make the biggest mistake of their life? Alexis,
what did you tell Brook right before she wore those
pants that we talked about behind her back?
Speaker 2 (28:26):
Jeff I didn't have a chance to talk to her yet.
They're cute Yeah, they're really cute and you can't borrow them.
Speaker 6 (28:32):
Ah, no for everyone. I only ask because one of
our listeners is worried that one of her besties is
about to become the most hated person in their friend
group and then possibly the most hated person on the
entire internet. What that's touchy because her friend is a bride,
(28:53):
But she's willing to come on the show and tell
us about it in exchange for a little help with
your brand new forward Tuesday phone call. Next, it's awkward.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
It's Tuesday.
Speaker 6 (29:06):
It's awkward Tuesday phone call.
Speaker 7 (29:08):
You know.
Speaker 6 (29:09):
I heard someone say being a bridesmaid is basically like
being in a very expensive cult.
Speaker 9 (29:16):
What.
Speaker 6 (29:17):
There's matching outfits, one really strict leader, lots of emotional chanting,
and you have to financially ruin yourself to prove your loyalty.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
That's a good place.
Speaker 6 (29:30):
I've personally never been one, but alexis is that description relatively.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
In many cults?
Speaker 11 (29:35):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (29:35):
Yeah, how much red kool aid? Did you drink too much?
Yeahs it was mixed with vodka.
Speaker 6 (29:41):
That's right. Okay, Now I'm probably missing a lot of
the tears and the choreographed dances that come with it too,
but you do get the general idea because yes, it
is an honor, but it can also be a challenge.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
It really depends on where the bride is. That's true,
I mean honestly, because.
Speaker 5 (29:56):
You can all of a sudden, now you're signed up, oh,
bachelortte party in another state or country.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
You don't know.
Speaker 6 (30:00):
It's different for every single person, and that's why our
listener Shannon says she needs our help today with a
bridesmaid situation. Shannon, Welcome to the show.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Hi, guys, are you Are you the bridesmaid? Shannon?
Speaker 10 (30:14):
I am one of the bridesmaids. Yeah, okay, okay, yeah,
you know, I really thought it was an honor, but
now it's getting a little weird and a little stressful.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Can we ask before we get into it, how you
know the bride?
Speaker 10 (30:28):
So we've been friends for like ever, like since kindergarten.
Speaker 13 (30:31):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (30:33):
That's always one of those where you're like, are you
still really that close or is it just you know,
sometimes it can go either way.
Speaker 10 (30:40):
It's one of those. We don't have to talk every day,
we don't live in the same state anymore, but we
get together. It's time has passed.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Yeah, okay, that's awesome.
Speaker 6 (30:48):
Yeah, that's cool. So what's going on with the bride?
Speaker 10 (30:52):
So here's the thing. She recently got engaged to her
boyfriend and she asked me to be a bridesmaid. Of
course they said yes. So then a few days later,
I get this email and it has an attachment and
it's a bride maid contract.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
Contract that's business like or just like you're going to
actually follow through and pay for this stuff.
Speaker 10 (31:12):
So it like outlines all her expectations of being part
of the wedding.
Speaker 3 (31:17):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
Interesting, you know, it probably came from somebody told her,
like some advice somewhere, was like, lay out what your
expectations are and then you won't have any drama.
Speaker 4 (31:26):
I've been sent a PowerPoint before, have you. Yeah, but
she's a teacher, so it's her thing on like nails
and outfits and like what we expected. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (31:35):
When I heard that, I thought it was a joke,
but that that's something that actually for a contract.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
Is a little different than a PowerPoint. What did it say?
Speaker 10 (31:45):
So I actually have it in front of me if
I'm going to read you some of these.
Speaker 6 (31:47):
Okay.
Speaker 10 (31:47):
One is attendance mandatory for all pre wedding events, including
dress fitting, bachelor party, bridle shower, and spontaneous gathering.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
What spontaneous? I mean that can't that can't be you.
You live in another state. There's no way you.
Speaker 10 (32:02):
Can make spontaneous like I can't be spontaneous to do that.
Speaker 6 (32:06):
Well by a flight last second. If you actually cared
about her, then you wouldn't make it happen.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
I even think the dress fitting is ridiculous.
Speaker 10 (32:14):
Oh this is a good one too. Weight management. Must
fit into dress as is. No diet accordingly, no, yeah, yeah, okay,
but that one I can kind of understand, because you
want to look good in the photos.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Right out of here, Jeff, No one, no.
Speaker 6 (32:31):
One, No one wants to look good in photos.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
There's no way in before a wedding.
Speaker 6 (32:35):
Okay, Like I didn't get in your way in. I
just must fit in your dress.
Speaker 10 (32:39):
No diet, diet accordingly?
Speaker 6 (32:41):
Okay, okay, Maybe that they'd cross triggered me, Jeff, obviously,
I'm afraid to even continue to ask if there's anything
else on the guys, Oh god, okay.
Speaker 10 (32:54):
Groom proximity, no flirting, joking or standing too close to
the groom, no exception.
Speaker 6 (33:00):
Okay, you know what, Now I have to draw the line.
Speaker 1 (33:03):
That's a weird thing that you would even have to say,
is your best friends weird?
Speaker 6 (33:08):
Has he cheated or something?
Speaker 1 (33:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (33:10):
Is there history? I'm with jose on that one.
Speaker 10 (33:14):
No, not as far as I know. I know she
has one of her bridesmaids is a little bit of
let's say, maybe a trollope.
Speaker 6 (33:28):
So maybe that will was specifically designed for that particular
brides maybe.
Speaker 10 (33:34):
But here's the one that really irks me too. Financial commitment.
You're expected to contribute a minimum of two thousand dollars
towards the entire events, travels and gifts. Wow, And at
the bottom it says to sign it and return within
twenty four hours or else penalties would occur.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
This is God. But she's like, ha ha ha.
Speaker 10 (33:58):
No, I'm literally on group chat with all the girls.
They think she is out of her mind. So I'm
reaching out to you guys because they're all like pushing
me because I've known her the longest to have a
conversation with her.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
A bridesmaid union. You're going to rise up and fight
against the man.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
I like it.
Speaker 6 (34:15):
The situation sounds pretty serious, which is great that we're
putting it in an awkward Tuesday where jose can contribute
his knowledge and advice on brides.
Speaker 8 (34:24):
I'm so scared to talk.
Speaker 6 (34:29):
It's so funny.
Speaker 2 (34:31):
I mean, I think here's the thing.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
This is a really important conversation because the bride is.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
A little out of her mind.
Speaker 1 (34:37):
She's alienating all of her closest people, and someone needs
to tell her that's what's happening.
Speaker 6 (34:43):
Yeah, maybe that someone should be brooked because she feels
the strongest about it. By the way, Shannon, what is
the bride's name?
Speaker 2 (34:50):
Oh yeah, para.
Speaker 6 (34:54):
The first part of terrible. That's not I'm not going
to say.
Speaker 9 (35:01):
Name.
Speaker 6 (35:01):
So let's circle the wagons here, team, we're gonna come
up with some top notch advice to give Shannon before
she calls the bride to confront her about the bridesmaid contract. Say,
you've gone too far.
Speaker 7 (35:16):
Girl.
Speaker 6 (35:17):
You're gonna do it with your awkward Tuesday phone call
right after this. Hold on, it's awkward.
Speaker 11 (35:22):
It's Tuesday.
Speaker 6 (35:24):
It's awkward Tuesday phone call. We just heard from a bridesmaid.
Her name is Shannon, who told us about her friend's
extremely reasonable bridesmaid contract that she sent out to the
whole bridal party. Some of the clauses in there include
minimum dollar amounts required in order to participate, weight restriction rules,
(35:46):
and limits on groom proximity. Now again, I've never been
a bridesmaid before, but if I was, I would think
that'd be pretty normal stuff. Brook tends to disagree. She
has a little bit more experience with this stuff than me.
But the bottom line is Shannon has been nominated by
the entire group to call the bride and talk her
(36:09):
down from some of the expectations laid out in the contract.
That's why she needs a little bit of advice before
she does it. Brooke, We're gonna start with you. What
advice do you have for Shannon?
Speaker 1 (36:17):
Okay, for Shannon, the most important thing is you need
to come to her as her friend. Okay, Yeah, this
call is because you've got her back and she hasn't
thought all of this through yet.
Speaker 2 (36:29):
Like, of course, all the bridesmaids are gonna sign it.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
But what if this document, this contract got leaked on
social media, this bride may become.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
Literally the most hated person on the internet.
Speaker 1 (36:40):
And not only is that not deserved, but like it's
also like such a distraction from her big day.
Speaker 2 (36:47):
You know, she has this little window right now I see.
Speaker 6 (36:49):
The advice is to threaten to leak it onto the internet,
no embarrassed.
Speaker 1 (36:54):
The advice is to tell her you have this little
window right now to just tell everybody it's a joke.
Speaker 6 (37:00):
Okay, wait a minute. She has a chance to back out,
do you what do you think about that, Shannon?
Speaker 10 (37:04):
She's not one to back down. But I do think
that if people found out, I would hope that she
would maybe see that.
Speaker 1 (37:12):
That's you got to set it up that way before
you ask her to tell it.
Speaker 6 (37:17):
Is blowing up right now.
Speaker 8 (37:18):
So a lot of people have opinions.
Speaker 6 (37:19):
Okay, so there's one piece of advice for you now.
Jose has already said that he is too scared to
give any opinion or the other.
Speaker 5 (37:27):
I don't want to be in the room because I
feel like a lot of drama's about to happen and
it's gonna yell that's fair.
Speaker 6 (37:32):
So instead we're gonna go to Alexis. The bride's made experts.
Makes sense.
Speaker 4 (37:38):
I'm a way we're asking me because I probably would
have already signed it and just sent it back.
Speaker 2 (37:41):
So I'm too scared.
Speaker 4 (37:45):
Yeah, but if you are brave enough to confront the bride,
then be like, you are going to be a great bride.
I love your plans, and then go into like, but
you're a little psycho.
Speaker 1 (37:54):
But that's what I love about you, you know, But
that's what I love about it.
Speaker 2 (37:58):
You have a bout.
Speaker 1 (37:59):
You never had a infirntation with any one of your friends.
Speaker 6 (38:04):
Just do back down like that already. Come on, So
it sounds like say some sweet things, compliment her a
little bit before you bring the criticism.
Speaker 10 (38:15):
Like some compliment sandwiches.
Speaker 2 (38:17):
Nobody ever sees through that.
Speaker 6 (38:18):
Although the compliment sandwiches might be a problem with the
weight restrictions on.
Speaker 5 (38:23):
The sandwich, Jennery order cucumber sandwiches either way.
Speaker 6 (38:26):
Now we're going to call the bride teara here and
we will step back and let you make your call. Oh,
just keep the advice in mind and know that we
have your back to We're going to jump in if
you feel like you need a little help.
Speaker 10 (38:36):
Okay, I'm really nervous. My hands are sweating, but thank
you for your question.
Speaker 8 (38:40):
Remember this is your friend.
Speaker 6 (38:42):
Yes, so you have the benefit of the doubt act
that way.
Speaker 14 (38:44):
Here we go, Hello, Hey, who's.
Speaker 10 (38:59):
Grow shan't.
Speaker 15 (39:02):
Do you get a new number or something? Where are
you calling from?
Speaker 10 (39:07):
Yeah, I had to use my phone being funny.
Speaker 7 (39:10):
So it's interesting because Melanie texted me earlier and she
said that you're gonna call because there's something about the wedding.
And honestly, I'm starting to feel some type of way
because none of you guys have signed the contract and
it's the deadlines ten night at midnight, so.
Speaker 10 (39:28):
What's going away? I didn't know if she'd do that.
Of course she would. Maybe we just dive in. First
of all, very excited for the big day. We all are.
Speaker 15 (39:43):
Yeah, you should be. It's gonna be amazing. I gotta yeah.
So you've gond kind of foolish right now?
Speaker 10 (39:48):
Well what no, Listen, I love your enthusiasm for your
big day, and I just kind of wanted to maybe
have a little conversation about said trapped.
Speaker 15 (40:01):
She gets to the point, Okay, you know, I mean,
you're the most loving and constructive way possible, But it
was girl, I don't have time to this with us.
Speaker 10 (40:10):
Okay. Well, like number one, the weight management thing, Amber's
trying to get pregnant, and you've got this girl terrified
if she's to get pregnant because she's like, I can't
gain any weight, and that's the problem.
Speaker 15 (40:21):
She's not having cleanses.
Speaker 10 (40:23):
She at least no listen you, your dress is kind
of form fitting. She's never gonna hide if she by
the time your wedding come, she would be pretty pregnant.
Speaker 15 (40:34):
I'm not really liking your tone.
Speaker 9 (40:35):
Girl.
Speaker 15 (40:35):
Let me tell you something. I went to Shana's wedding
in a hot pink bridesmaid dress put together with duct takes.
So the least yup just can do for me is
show up sober and symmetrical and.
Speaker 10 (40:54):
Much you know how, like things hit the internet like
what if one of these girls talked about it or
post about it, and then it's you're gonna look like
this crazy bridezilla.
Speaker 15 (41:04):
First of all, I can't believe that you would.
Speaker 12 (41:06):
What are you do that to me?
Speaker 15 (41:08):
I would I held your hair back in Vegas.
Speaker 10 (41:12):
Okay, First of all, we weren't going to talk about that.
We made a pack about it.
Speaker 15 (41:16):
Well wait, we're not gonna leak anything online.
Speaker 10 (41:20):
Either, Karah. I adore you, I love you, can you.
I'm coming from a place of love and friendship. Take
a breath. The groom part, like the no flirting or
talking or I mean, can't even look his direction, like,
that's that's a little bizarre.
Speaker 15 (41:35):
Listed Listen, listen, listen, listen.
Speaker 10 (41:38):
You and I both know who has polish tendencies and
we do not.
Speaker 15 (41:44):
You and I both know that is not directed at you.
I'm not gonna say, listen, there is no compromising on that. Okay,
well that one.
Speaker 10 (41:54):
That one's fine.
Speaker 9 (41:55):
Leave that one.
Speaker 15 (41:56):
But like the minimum two thousand dollars in the travel
and the no missing it, Like I don't live in
the same state.
Speaker 10 (42:02):
So that might be a problem.
Speaker 15 (42:04):
It might be a problem, but it's not my problem.
Speaker 13 (42:06):
But listen, I deserve a perfect day, and by god,
I'm going to have it.
Speaker 10 (42:19):
What is going on?
Speaker 2 (42:22):
He told you that was way too casual?
Speaker 10 (42:26):
Shon.
Speaker 6 (42:28):
Yeah, Shannon's there, and so is there a radio show
called Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning. You're on the
radio right now, Tara.
Speaker 8 (42:34):
Good morning, Tara.
Speaker 6 (42:35):
All, okay, it's okay, everything's okay.
Speaker 1 (42:43):
And she was just scared on how to bring this up,
so she needed some help and that's where we came in.
Just it was all out of like she said, love
and friendship. That's where we're coming from. Answer my question
is this, that's a good question, Brook.
Speaker 12 (42:59):
Is and it.
Speaker 10 (43:06):
Today.
Speaker 15 (43:07):
I am okay, okay, hold on, this is a.
Speaker 10 (43:11):
Station in my town, not yours. Even know you there's
no connection.
Speaker 15 (43:17):
Oh okay, that makes it so much better.
Speaker 6 (43:20):
All she's asking, Tara, is if maybe you would consider
relooking over your contract with the girls because it's kind
of intense for some of them.
Speaker 10 (43:29):
All of us want to be in your wedding. We're
all gonna just sign the contract, but I just I
feel that if this is kind of how things are
going to go, we'll just go to Tona a smidget.
And you know, I don't do well with confrontation, and
I am very sweaty. Palms, my arm pillar are very sweaty.
Speaker 15 (43:45):
I gets true.
Speaker 7 (43:46):
I'm way you are bright right right, I'm like, I know.
Speaker 10 (43:50):
You know, and I'm like, I'm sweating. I'm sweating in
all my crevices.
Speaker 6 (43:56):
And that's good for the weight loss part of the
contract that out. So she's trying. What do you think, though, Tarah,
do you think that maybe you would consider I know,
I know it's a lot to ask, but it would
mean a lot to Shannon and to all the bridesmaids
if you'd sit down with them and just go over
the rules. And maybe make a couple amendments so it
(44:18):
works better for everybody.
Speaker 15 (44:19):
We'll talk about it. Okay, we can talk about it. Okay,
I'm gonna tell you right now though, is staying okay?
Speaker 1 (44:29):
Okay, you have a really questionable best friend.
Speaker 15 (44:37):
We love her.
Speaker 14 (44:38):

Speaker 2 (44:39):
Okay, you have her for the plot.
Speaker 6 (44:41):
I get it. Yeah, we all got one.
Speaker 2 (44:44):
I don't think I have anyone that will take my mayn.
Speaker 8 (44:47):
Looking at her.
Speaker 6 (44:49):
That's not what I meant.
Speaker 11 (44:50):
But freaking Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 6 (45:02):
You've got a brand new player today who is about
to graduate from college coming up here. His name is Zach,
and he says he wants to crush Brooke as his
graduation presence before going off to get his master's degree. Wow, Brook,
you don't want to crush the dreams of a college
(45:22):
grad full of hope and whatever mixed cocktails he was
chugging last night.
Speaker 2 (45:27):
Do you if he's.
Speaker 1 (45:28):

You'll get to that with his futures degrees. But let's
send Brook out of the studios. We can get to
the game here, Zach, you know how works. He got
thirty seconds to answer as many q Uessians as possible.

But I know to look forward to I guess. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (47:52):
Now, Brooke, it's your turn. Are you ready?
Speaker 2 (47:54):
Yeah, I'm ready.
Speaker 6 (47:54):
Your time starts now. Today is International Dance Day. What
network does Dancing with the our is era? What's the
name of the process in which water turns into vapor?
Speaker 10 (48:05):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (48:06):
Oh, my god evaporation?
Speaker 6 (48:08):
In Greek mythology, who was the god of the sea?
Speaker 1 (48:11):
Uh?
Speaker 6 (48:12):

Speaker 6 (48:28):
Oh, we're gonna find out if any of that's right
when we go to the scoreboard and checking on the
score with Jose.
Speaker 9 (48:35):
All this.
Speaker 5 (48:37):
Talking, that's a jam, Harry says, album, Zach, you got
to correct today.
Speaker 6 (48:47):
And Brook yet well you got five. So it happens.
Speaker 2 (48:53):
When you got a big net, Zach, you learn things.
Speaker 5 (48:58):
What was that?
Speaker 6 (48:58):
This phone's breaking up? Your phone's breaking up a lot.
Let's go over the answers for everybody. It's International Dance
Day Dancing with the Stars airs on ABC. The process
where water turns into vapor is called evaporation. The god
of the sea in Greek mythology is Poseidon breaking a
bottle against Chip before its main voyage is known as christening.
(49:21):
In the Lion King Scar is the main villain. And
when you mix red and yellow you get the color orange.
Speaker 2 (49:28):
I studied art in college, so I totally knew that one.
Speaker 6 (49:31):
Yeah, so, Zach, I'm sorry, man, it wasn't enough to
beat Brooke today. But the good news is just for
playing you do get a pair of tickets to see
Shadow Force in theaters, starring Kerry Washington and Omar Sai
along with a promotional prize pack from Lionsgate Pictures.
Speaker 9 (49:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (49:53):
I think his phone got dropped in a toilet at
one of those frat parties. All the weekend's.
Speaker 8 (49:58):
Skydiving as we speak, to be really impressive.
Speaker 1 (50:01):
So, I mean, it's so weird that we can hear
the wind whistling through your phone.
Speaker 2 (50:09):
But not your actual poet.
Speaker 3 (50:12):
Definitely the pool at the at the party it is.
Speaker 6 (50:15):
Well, don't let's ruin your good vibe, Zach. Come back
and play again soon. We're gonna do wind Brooks Bucks
same time
Speaker 11 (50:21):
Tomorrow, brook and Jeffrey in the morning.

Coming up as your tap.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
Karna said, I love the show thanks to you. My
shift is bearable.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
That's always so good. How many people listen at work?
Speaker 3 (00:51):
I know.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
I don't don't pay attention to like we feel you do.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
We make the world less productive?
Speaker 2 (00:55):
I think so probably, and I like it. I like
it as long as we're bringing happiness. All right, let's
start this full show.
Speaker 6 (01:01):
I hope you got your passport handy because we're going
international for today's Hero of the Week.
Speaker 5 (01:09):
Yeah, I don't speak Spanish Sopefully.
Speaker 6 (01:12):
It's like it's a Brookie Jeffrey in the morning. We're
going to an English speaking country today with Jose. You
never know. Today's hero is a guy in Ireland named Kieran,
and recently Kieran went to a bachelor party for one
of his buddies, but was struggling to find a good
(01:33):
parking spot close to where the event was happening. Okay, okay,
until he finally found one about a thirty minute walk away.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
God, I hate that.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
How many times he had to circle to just even
find that spot not far away?
Speaker 2 (01:48):
You have given up your.
Speaker 6 (01:49):
Right right you walk there at a great night. But
then the fun stopped because afterwards, for the life of him,
Kieran couldn't remember where he parked his car.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
I mean, let's be honest, Karen, at the end of
a bachelor party, let's not be driving.
Speaker 6 (02:05):
Home a picture. Yeah, he was looking and looking up
and down every street.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Jose struggle.
Speaker 6 (02:13):
He could not find where he parked his car, so
we called a friend. They started driving around the town
for five hours searching for his car.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
You know, he's just on his keyfop.
Speaker 6 (02:26):
Please no luck what Eventually Kieren had to go to work,
took the bus. Then after his shift he'd go back
to the area and keep searching for his car.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
To assume it's a toad.
Speaker 7 (02:38):
Right.
Speaker 6 (02:39):
This went on every day for three straight weeks. What
no clue where he had parked his car that night,
and he called the local to lots. They didn't have it. No.
Finally he called a local radio station begging them for help,
and after describing it on the air, a listener was
able to locate his car for him.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
It does still matter. Yes, we could be car finders.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
That's what we could be.
Speaker 6 (03:06):
That's why for restoring hope and radio Kieran is our
hero of the wigs and yeah forgetting stuff. Now it's
time to move on. You're gonna get to the shack
collar question of the day and I'm just gonna sit
back and enjoy the vocal stylings of Trivia and wrap
(03:29):
Icon Digital God Mode, Jake Ion, show us your work.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
It's from Christmas.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
On this day. Back in eighteen ninety nine, a French
guy named Camille Janazi did something absolutely bonkers for the time.
He became the first person ever to drive a road
vehicle over one hundred miles per hour. Fast forward to today,
Brooks easily hits that mark every morning while driving down
(03:58):
the emergency vehicles only lanes to avoid paying tolls.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
Bye, today there was an actual emergency vehicle. Oh no,
I just followed it. Yeah, it's a safe distance.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
So to celebrate that speedy milestone today, we're going to
be playing a special.
Speaker 6 (04:16):
Goer or slower edition.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
Of twenty of twenty. So you guys, say number one
through twenty. I will tell you about something that may
or may not be able to reach speeds of one
hundred miles an hour. Okay, have to tell me if
it's a goer and can hit a hundred or slower
and can't. We'll start with the woman who is by
(04:40):
far the fastest mammal on this show by land speed.
Alexis your speed selection is the peregrine falcon in diving mode?
Is it a goer over one hundred miles per hour
or slower?
Speaker 2 (04:54):
So easy? He's such a jeff question. Easy.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
This is my one's favorite animal, well tied with a
penguin that is granted so easy.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
And everyone knows that you're not gonna know him if
he doesn't go one hundred miles per hour.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Why would you know a slow word?
Speaker 1 (05:10):
So he's a.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
Goer, Alexis says goer. It's over two hundred miles when
it dies, right, Jeff, that's right.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Okay, I'm going to go number seven.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Brook. Your speed selection is a simple human sneeze. When
you say a normal sneeze, is a goer or slower?
Speaker 8 (05:30):
Your husband?
Speaker 2 (05:31):
God, No, that's just loud. That's a decibel thing.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
No louder mean faster.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
No, God, it feels like it goes on forever.
Speaker 6 (05:39):
When it's so loud, does it come out faster? Like
in tennis if you're supposed to hit harder when you grunt,
So does it come out faster if you make a noise?
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Why does it get louder the older you get to
It doesn't make any sense to me.
Speaker 6 (05:51):
No, even me, sneeze are getting loud because it hurts
your whole body.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
I don't know why I had one hundred would be
really fast. I think slower.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
According to the airspeed out of nostrils. The scientific consensus
is about thirty to fifty miles per hour quick ones.
Speaker 6 (06:06):
I want to be like Jose.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Three and seven are off the board.
Speaker 8 (06:09):
Okay, let's go eight.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
The six flags King Da Ka roller coaster that's six
flags in New Jersey. It's the fastest in the US.
Is it a goer or slower?
Speaker 8 (06:21):
So I actually follow a lot of like what would
you call them?
Speaker 6 (06:26):
Theme park pages?
Speaker 9 (06:27):
Thank you?
Speaker 5 (06:27):
And there's a guy who's obsessed with his ride and
he always talks.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
About is this specific?
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Yeah on the Kingdom Kong Kingda Ka King Da Ka, And.
Speaker 8 (06:36):
I gotta say it's a goer.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
That goes one hundred and twenty eight miles, which is
an exception for roller coasters. Most coasters go sixty to
ninety miles.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Actually, your face is just plastered against the back walls.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
You guys are three for three. Brooke knew hers because
her son knows birds. Jose knew his because he knows
Facebook pages. I'm gonna ban you guys from having any friends.
I don't want beat you to Jeffery. It's your turn. Three,
seven and eight are off the board.
Speaker 6 (07:04):
Fourteen.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Your speed selection is the cheetah running at max speed.
Would you say it's goer or slower the cheetah.
Speaker 6 (07:13):
It seems like a trick question.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Yeah, really trick about it.
Speaker 6 (07:17):
The cheetah is the fastest land animal at like sixty
miles an.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Hour, So you just answered your question.
Speaker 10 (07:24):
Is it sixty?
Speaker 6 (07:27):
It's common knowledge, but I think there's some sort of
trick here. I'm gonna say slower.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
Top out about seven.
Speaker 6 (07:37):
Your face still looks like I still.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
So we're back to Alexis need a number nine. Your
speed selection is a sky diver in belly to earth position,
hurling towards Earth. Would you say it's goer or slower?
Speaker 1 (07:52):
I love that means yeah, he just means before the
parachute's open.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
All the photos they're cheeks are hold up. You got
the funny faces when people buy the photos?
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Oh faces?
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Okay, I'll say goer? Why not?
Speaker 3 (08:08):
Alexis says, oh why not?
Speaker 9 (08:10):
Sure?
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Just yeah, she's gonna get it exactly. You guys have
gone five for five on goer or slower, and I
now am the loser of today's.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Starting to trend? Does this happen a little bit ago?
Speaker 9 (08:26):
Yesterdays?
Speaker 6 (08:27):
Are we getting smarter?
Speaker 3 (08:28):
No more friends? Okay, tomorrow tomorrow, don't make any friends,
don't talk to friends, nothing, but we have all.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Falcon questions tomorrow Maybe maybe.
Speaker 6 (08:36):
Jake, you're getting shocked. Somebody wanted to hear the song
Fast car by Tracy chap.
Speaker 3 (08:41):
So remember when we were driving driving in your car,
speed so fast, I fella, I was drunk. City lights
lay before us, and you're arm building nice wrap around
my shoulder and.
Speaker 6 (08:55):
Wrapped God right there. That was your shot collar question
of the day. We got your phone tap coming up
in just a few.
Speaker 11 (09:01):
Minutes, Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 6 (09:05):
Every team has that one player who everyone loves, but
we also know they're kind of a liability. No, like
the one kid on the soccer team who always shoots
at the wrong goal. Yeah, no matter how many times
you tell them, or that one coworker who's always a
little bit too gossipy during the business call with the CEO.
(09:27):
Oh and on this radio squad, our lovable liability is
Brooke Fox.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
I thought they were going to say that too.
Speaker 6 (09:37):
She is fun, she is bubbly, she is smart, but
she will threaten the referee and pour gasoline onto his
car if the call doesn't go her way. Deserves She's
just got that competitive spirit for trivia and it's gonna
go her way or else. Coming up right now, before
(10:04):
we get into the game here, just want to say
thank you to all the new players who are boyve
enough to call in and take on Brook Because we
do get lots and lots of return players, which is great,
but it's always nice to have new people come in
and try and take her on. So if you're somebody
new who's never played before, don't be shy, call in
(10:24):
sweet talk our producer producer Boyd on the phone and
see if you can get your name on the list,
just like our new player Christine did for her very
first time in radio trivia. Christine, Welcome to the show.
Speaker 12 (10:38):
Hi, thank you. I don't know how much of a
sweet talker I am, but I'm.
Speaker 10 (10:41):
Happy to be here.
Speaker 8 (10:42):
Yeah, you know what, you could be a sour talker Brook.
Speaker 6 (10:46):
Yeah, you know he loves Adamby.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
He's I mean, you guys don't hear from producer Boyd
very often, which.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
By the way, it's Boyd, not boy Yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Yeah, people constantly think they were calling in producer boy.
Speaker 6 (10:58):
I think it's funnier that way. I like it betters
producer boy boy with a D. Yeah that's fine. Well, Christine,
what made you call in and try for the first
time today?
Speaker 12 (11:08):
Well, my daughter Leona was with me. We're on our
way to school and if we Uh, listen to you
guys every morning, and every morning she says, you gotta
call you got to call him on Brow.
Speaker 6 (11:23):
You've got a live audience for you, Christine, So no pressure,
Brooks leaving the studio thirty seconds on the clock to
answer as many questions as possible. If you don't know when,
you could say pass. But you have to beat her
outright if you want to win. Are you ready?
Speaker 10 (11:34):
We're ready?
Speaker 6 (11:35):

Speaker 8 (12:13):
Brooke's going to.
Speaker 6 (12:14):
Come back into the studio and let's learn more about
our new player Christine.
Speaker 13 (12:18):
Here.
Speaker 6 (12:18):
She is a substitute teacher who for fun, likes to
do pilates, go on hikes with her dog and read books. Meanwhile,
go ahead, does that.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
Make you sound more well balanced than you actually are?
Speaker 12 (12:33):
I think so. Note They're just kind of like my
thirty second elevator pitch. But really it's like I'm a
mom and I do all the mom things and I
substitute teacher when I can.
Speaker 10 (12:43):
You know.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Oh, okay, so you have time for pilates once a month.
Speaker 12 (12:47):
I am able to go to pilates a few times
a week, which is incredibly lucky at this stage of life.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
But good on you.
Speaker 6 (12:55):
Well, it should feel good because for fun, Brooke goes
to children's baseball games, not even for her own children,
and eats hot dogs while yelling at random kids.
Speaker 3 (13:03):
She's a good heckler.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
I was trying to motivate them. You know, do better,
you loser, yee? Do you want a picture?
Speaker 8 (13:11):
Not a belly picture?
Speaker 6 (13:12):
Motherhood looks different for everybody.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Yeah, I don't rhyme as much, Jose, I just yell
you sun.
Speaker 5 (13:17):
Oh yeah I never before shut up here.
Speaker 6 (13:22):
Tears guild's character. Remember that, So Brook, it's your turn?
Are you ready?
Speaker 3 (13:27):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (13:27):
Your time starts now. Today is National Raisin Day. What
best selling what's the best selling raisin brand that comes
in a red box?
Speaker 2 (13:34):
California Raisins.
Speaker 6 (13:36):
On this day in nineteen forty seven, Nevada's Boulder Damn
was renamed to what that we still call it today,
Hoover dam What's the rarest naturally occurring blood type in humans?
Speaker 9 (13:46):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (13:47):
What famous author wrote Charlie and the Chocolate Factory roll doll?
What is the only US state made up entirely of islandsai?
What is the term used in tennis for the score
of zero?
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Love?
Speaker 6 (14:02):
All right? Got our answers? Z in game is up.
Let's go to the scoreboard to see how you did
with Jose.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
Christine, you got three correct today.
Speaker 6 (14:15):
It is a good score.
Speaker 8 (14:17):
Brook you got one extra in and you got.
Speaker 6 (14:19):
Full dress barely edged out there, Christine, Let's go over
the answers for everybody. It's National Raisin Day. The best
selling raisin brand that comes in a red bronx would
be Sun Made.
Speaker 8 (14:34):
Both said California Raisin.
Speaker 6 (14:35):
So yeah, I think it's a band. It's not even
an actual brand brand.
Speaker 14 (14:41):
It's a band.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
It's a brand. It does come in a red box.
It is not the best selling brand.
Speaker 6 (14:47):
On this day in nineteen forty seven, that that is
Boulder Dam was renamed to the Hoover Dam, and it's
stuck until today. The rarest naturally occurring blood type in
humans is AB negative. Rold Doll is the author who
wrote Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Hawaii is the only
US state made up entirely of islands, and the term
and tennis used for the score of zero is love.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
They make it sound want to sound positive, don't they.
Speaker 6 (15:10):
Yeah, so, Christine, it was not enough to beat Brooke today,
But just for playing, we are going to give you
a pair of tickets to see Shadow Force in theaters,
starring Kerrie Washington and Omar Sai, along with a promotional
prize pack from lions Gate Pictures.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
Everybody, all right, So, Leona, did enjoy the game even
though you didn't win?
Speaker 2 (15:34):
Is that what I'm hearing?
Speaker 15 (15:35):
Did you enjoy it?
Speaker 1 (15:36):
Yeah? I think so, So we always take that.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
That's good enough for us.
Speaker 6 (15:43):
You guys are both welcome back on the show anytime.
Speaker 11 (15:46):
Okay, Thank you, guys, Brooke and Jeffrey. In the morning.
Speaker 6 (15:51):
Most people will tell small lies to their grandparents just
to make them happy, you know, things like Grandma of course,
I'm wearing that wool total neck that you knit for me.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Every single day.
Speaker 6 (16:05):
No, I don't have any tattoos or not. I don't
care about the inheritance. I'm visiting you because I love you.
It makes her happy. But one of our listeners told
a much bigger lie to his grandmother, and he did
it for actually a very sweet reason. And now a
full year later, he's still living it and the guilt
(16:28):
is eating him a lot. You're gonna hear in a
brand new mass speaker coming up right after this.
Speaker 9 (16:34):
You hear me confession I can't take back arms.
Speaker 6 (16:42):
Mouse speaker text to seventy five nine, who says, for
the last ten or so years, whenever my husband and
I vote by mail, I always take our ballots with
me to the grocery store so I can just drop
them in the mailbox there. But I only realized last
week it's not really a mailbox I've been using. It's
a food donation.
Speaker 9 (17:03):
Ba.
Speaker 6 (17:04):
I am so embarrassed. I can't tell my husband our
votes haven't counted for ten years.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Yeah, that you've insulted the poor food donation.
Speaker 6 (17:16):
Oh my god.
Speaker 8 (17:17):
Some guys like, is this an edible voting?
Speaker 6 (17:21):
I just know the election conspiracy folks are gonna go
nuts for that quote there.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
Yeah, but our vote didn't count.
Speaker 6 (17:27):
Yeah, exactly, somebody voted for an Apple corps. Oh, this
is why we keep listeners anonymous here on the mass Speaker,
so they can confess to rigging and throwing government elections
guilt free on our show. Let's meet today's secret keeper,
who's chosen to go by the name Perry today, Perry.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
Welcome, is your last name? Winkle?
Speaker 9 (17:50):
No confession?
Speaker 6 (17:52):
You got a half laugh from him, Brooke, that was
that was good. That's okay.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
Just try to lighten the mood because you sound kind
of serious.
Speaker 6 (18:00):
Okay, the voice changer is on. You are the mass speaker.
Whenever you're ready, let's hear your confession.
Speaker 9 (18:04):
Man, all right, I need to make a pretty serious confession.
I'm glad you guys are asking my voice.
Speaker 6 (18:09):
Okay, okay, So what's up.
Speaker 9 (18:11):
Last year, my grandmother got really sick.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
I'm sorry, thank you.
Speaker 9 (18:19):
So she was in the hospital. It was getting serious
that doctors were telling us that they weren't very optimistic
about her chances.
Speaker 6 (18:28):
Yeah, that's so hard, I know.
Speaker 9 (18:30):
So I went into the hospital to see her, thinking
this is probably the last time you're want to see her.
And one thing my grandmother she always wanted was for
me to fall in love and get married and have
a family.
Speaker 8 (18:45):
Oh Grandma, she actually wanted that.
Speaker 9 (18:50):
She did. She always would ask me about it and stuff,
and I just wanted to make her happy. So I
told her that I got engaged. Okay, but I didn't.
There was no real girl.
Speaker 6 (19:07):
Yeah, we're all shocked.
Speaker 9 (19:09):
Wait why I showed her like a random picture of
the draw on Instagram and I was like, yeah, this
is my fiancee.
Speaker 6 (19:20):
I thought I was going to show Brooks picture.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Maybe. I mean, it's kind of like, no harm, no failure. Yeah,
your heart's in the right place.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
I mean, you shouldn't be lying to her, but you're
doing it for the right reasons.
Speaker 9 (19:32):
A couple of weeks went by and she started getting better.
Speaker 5 (19:36):
Oh I want to say, oh no, but that's a
good thing.
Speaker 9 (19:39):
Yeah, yeah, no, it was a good thing. Everyone was
very happy. A couple more weeks but she got out
of the hospital.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Oh my god, what stubborn old lady.
Speaker 6 (19:49):
I was inspired by the news that her grandson is
about to fall in love and get married.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Wait, I mean, like, you're so happy but you're probably
also kind of freaking out right.
Speaker 9 (19:58):
Yeah, like she thinks I'm I'm still engaged.
Speaker 6 (20:01):
To this day.
Speaker 9 (20:03):
Yeah, it's been a year.
Speaker 8 (20:04):
Oh my god, why can't you be like most grandma's
and have a bad.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Memory when you finally actually do get a girlfriend.
Speaker 9 (20:14):
Though that's not even like the thing I'm worried about.
That would be great because I could just kind of
fudge the picture a little bit, or maybe I don't know, or.
Speaker 6 (20:22):
Maybe blame it on her memory, like no, Grandma, Yes,
she must be like curious about it over if it's
gone on for the past year.
Speaker 9 (20:28):
Yeah, I mean she asks me all the time. She's like,
how's mad? It's sin she remembers her name, and I
keep showing her, Yeah, I keep showing her the same picture.
I'm like, look, she's out the brunch with these same girls,
like she loves going to brunch, grandma, you know, like.
Speaker 6 (20:42):
The same brunch photo.
Speaker 9 (20:44):
Brunch picture. Yeah. Remember he's not that great, but like
she's no, like a brunch group.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
So you're gonna get how have you not gotten outed
by another family member?
Speaker 9 (20:55):
No, my mom knows, Like I told my mom, and
my mom's like, you can not tell.
Speaker 6 (21:00):
Her they left you like.
Speaker 9 (21:05):
You will that might kill her. Yeah, you guys, I
don't even think like she made a Christmas stocking.
Speaker 6 (21:14):
With her name on it, expects she.
Speaker 9 (21:17):
Gave me a birthday card for her.
Speaker 6 (21:22):
But you at least pocketed the money out of the car.
I mean, yeah, that's fine, you're going.
Speaker 9 (21:29):
To throw it away?
Speaker 2 (21:30):
What do you tell her?
Speaker 9 (21:31):
What?
Speaker 6 (21:32):
It gets worse?
Speaker 9 (21:33):
It gets worse. The worst thing is the last time
I saw her, she told me that she wrote Madison
into her will.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
Oh okay, now we may need to like Madison may
need to cheat on you or something, you know, like, no.
Speaker 9 (21:47):
No, that would kill her. That would kill I'm like,
I'm considering hiring an actress at this.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Point, Okay, James Madison. That that's rough man.
Speaker 9 (21:58):
Yeah. I never thought trying to do something I would
turn out so badly.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
So when are you going to send her her your
wedding invitation?
Speaker 9 (22:05):
Or I don't know.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
I can't wait to see your guys. Grandbabies, I mean
her great grandchildren are going to be a door.
Speaker 6 (22:14):
Oh yeah, you must be on the like the dating
apps right now with a filter for only Madisons at
this point, right.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
It just has to be a pet name Jeffrey.
Speaker 6 (22:22):
Oh, yeah, yeah, Madison is just.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
Her name's Rebecca, but I call her Madison.
Speaker 6 (22:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (22:30):
I keep trying to come up with stuff. Oh man,
the longer it goes.
Speaker 8 (22:36):
I feel like you're really going to meet a girl.
Speaker 5 (22:37):
And at this point you're gonna have to have a
fake grandma to introduce her to you.
Speaker 9 (22:40):
Now.
Speaker 6 (22:41):
Yeah, you know you got a lot ahead of you, dude.
We wish you like. Yeah, here's the good news. You
have been in a successful, committed relationship for an entire
year now, which's more than most couples that I know.
Even if she is imaginary that.
Speaker 9 (23:01):
Up.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
Hey, listen, this couple is perfect today.
Speaker 6 (23:04):
So we are proud of you.
Speaker 9 (23:06):

mask your voice, and make you our next mass speaker.
Your phone TAP's coming up.
Speaker 11 (23:18):
Brook and Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 6 (23:19):
It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. And in today's Frank,
we call a woman whose elderly mother has an in
home care provider who checks in on her and her
parrot from time to time cute, and that person had
to go on vacation for a week, which gave us
the perfect opportunity to provide a trust in filling for her. Oh,
(23:40):
someone who will be responsible, positive and wreak a little
bit of havoc at least on this call in your phone?
Tap right now another twenty.
Speaker 8 (23:56):
Hello, Hi, I'm looking for Regina.
Speaker 10 (24:01):
This is Regina calling.
Speaker 5 (24:03):
Oh, good morning. My name's Bobby Titsworth. I'm filling in
as your mom's in home caregiver this week.
Speaker 10 (24:09):
Oh okay, Hi.
Speaker 6 (24:12):
I'm the new guy.
Speaker 8 (24:13):
Just the feeling, I guess.
Speaker 5 (24:15):
First of all, I just wanted to say your mother
is a wonderful woman.
Speaker 8 (24:21):
I'm sure you know this.
Speaker 3 (24:23):
That's great to hear.
Speaker 13 (24:24):
Yeah, everybody loves her.
Speaker 6 (24:26):
Oh everybody?
Speaker 9 (24:27):
Huh.
Speaker 5 (24:28):
I thought she was more of an acquired taste. What
I digress?
Speaker 11 (24:33):
Like.
Speaker 8 (24:33):
The reason for my call is I'm pretty sure she
ate her parent.
Speaker 6 (24:37):
Wait, what what are you talking about?
Speaker 5 (24:40):
Yeah, I've been looking around her place. Oh my god,
there it is false alarm. I found him behind the microwave.
Oh my god, there you are nibbles.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
Get over here.
Speaker 6 (24:53):
He does nibbles.
Speaker 13 (24:55):
He had me. I thought that really happened.
Speaker 6 (24:57):
Yeah, sorry.
Speaker 5 (24:58):
I saw some feathers on what your mom's dinner plates,
and I thought, oh, yikes, I shouldn't have been late today.
Speaker 6 (25:03):
Huh. You really scared me there, you and me both.
Speaker 5 (25:10):
So so anyway, I know I'm only here for a week,
but I feel like I do need to bring something
else to your attention while I have you on the phone.
Speaker 6 (25:17):
Okay, something worse than my mom ate the parrot, and
I don't know you be the judge.
Speaker 5 (25:23):
I'm pretty sure I caught your mom trying to teach
Nibbles things she shouldn't be teaching a bird.
Speaker 10 (25:30):
Wait, what are you talking about? What do you mean?
Speaker 5 (25:33):
I'll give you an example, things like hey, bg Roy Yeah,
and like what.
Speaker 6 (25:39):
Was the other?
Speaker 9 (25:40):
Like?
Speaker 8 (25:40):
Uh, nice legs in those shorts.
Speaker 6 (25:44):
Look, my mom would never ever say things like that. Wait,
so you've never heard that before?
Speaker 12 (25:50):
No, my mom, that's not how she is.
Speaker 5 (25:53):
I mean, I know, I know she seems so sweet
and innocent, but I saw this yesterday. She was training
new to cat call the ups guy. No, yeah, he
was so shocked he dropped his package.
Speaker 6 (26:06):
He did not he did?
Speaker 5 (26:07):
And then nibble squeak right, bend over and get a gorgeous.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Rot Okay, this is I don't know what is happening here.
Speaker 12 (26:15):
You're supposed to take care of her well being, ma'am.
Speaker 8 (26:17):
I think you're confused here.
Speaker 5 (26:19):
I was a witness to the sexual exploitation of a
mail carrier.
Speaker 6 (26:23):
Oh my god, I'm a victim.
Speaker 8 (26:24):
I'm trying to help everybody.
Speaker 6 (26:26):
You're not helping this situation. I don't know what you
want me to do. I've never heard of anything like
this before. I don't know.
Speaker 8 (26:33):
I just want to give you a heads up my opinion.
Speaker 5 (26:35):
This bird is a full on creep and I don't
think your mom's helping a kidding me.
Speaker 6 (26:40):
But here's the deal. I don't think it's too late.
Speaker 8 (26:42):
I have a plan, which is what every time your
mom uses the restroom.
Speaker 5 (26:47):
I coach the bird how to flatter the mailman, but
not hit on it.
Speaker 13 (26:52):
What the hell are you talking about?
Speaker 6 (26:54):
He's like, looks like you're working out. Keep off the diet,
big boy, right?
Speaker 3 (26:58):
Oh, seem like you have good self estate.
Speaker 6 (27:00):
Do you think teaching the parrot to say more things
to the ups guy is a good thing?
Speaker 5 (27:05):
More positive things? Not so cat Collie, you know what
I mean? More like, Oh, nice package, but not the
one you're holding. It's the other one.
Speaker 10 (27:14):
I do see.
Speaker 6 (27:15):
I don't even know what to say.
Speaker 5 (27:17):
I mean, you could say thank you for this phone
tap we just did on you.
Speaker 8 (27:20):
Wait what sorry, there's a break phone call.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
My bad.
Speaker 5 (27:25):
This is Jose for the radio show Brook and Jeffrey
in the Morning, and this is a phone tap.
Speaker 13 (27:30):
God, wait, who did this?
Speaker 8 (27:33):
Your sister Shannon set you up?
Speaker 14 (27:35):
Oh my.
Speaker 13 (27:38):
Oh god, she said.
Speaker 5 (27:39):
Your mom's careagiters taking a week off, and you're all
worried about it.
Speaker 6 (27:42):
I'm sure it's getting fine.
Speaker 11 (27:44):
Okay, Oh my god.
Speaker 8 (27:47):
Keep that parrot in line.
Speaker 6 (27:49):
I'm gonna kill microwave himself. He's crawling in so excited.
Speaker 8 (27:56):
This is a bad parent, bad parent.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
I'll tell you.
Speaker 8 (28:01):
I got a bad feeling about this bird.
Speaker 11 (28:05):
The week up. Every morning was foom taps weekday mornings
on the twenties, Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning.
Speaker 6 (28:13):
What do you say to your best friend if you
know they're about to make the biggest mistake of their life? Alexis,
what did you tell Brook right before she wore those
pants that we talked about behind her back?
Speaker 2 (28:26):
Jeff I didn't have a chance to talk to her yet.
They're cute Yeah, they're really cute and you can't borrow them.
Speaker 6 (28:32):
Ah, no for everyone. I only ask because one of
our listeners is worried that one of her besties is
about to become the most hated person in their friend
group and then possibly the most hated person on the
entire internet. What that's touchy because her friend is a bride,
(28:53):
But she's willing to come on the show and tell
us about it in exchange for a little help with
your brand new forward Tuesday phone call. Next, it's awkward.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
It's Tuesday.
Speaker 6 (29:06):
It's awkward Tuesday phone call.
Speaker 7 (29:08):
You know.
Speaker 6 (29:09):
I heard someone say being a bridesmaid is basically like
being in a very expensive cult.
Speaker 9 (29:16):
What.
Speaker 6 (29:17):
There's matching outfits, one really strict leader, lots of emotional chanting,
and you have to financially ruin yourself to prove your loyalty.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
That's a good place.
Speaker 6 (29:30):
I've personally never been one, but alexis is that description relatively.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
In many cults?
Speaker 11 (29:35):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (29:35):
Yeah, how much red kool aid? Did you drink too much?
Yeahs it was mixed with vodka.
Speaker 6 (29:41):
That's right. Okay, Now I'm probably missing a lot of
the tears and the choreographed dances that come with it too,
but you do get the general idea because yes, it
is an honor, but it can also be a challenge.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
It really depends on where the bride is. That's true,
I mean honestly, because.
Speaker 5 (29:56):
You can all of a sudden, now you're signed up, oh,
bachelortte party in another state or country.
Speaker 3 (30:00):
You don't know.
Speaker 6 (30:00):
It's different for every single person, and that's why our
listener Shannon says she needs our help today with a
bridesmaid situation. Shannon, Welcome to the show.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Hi, guys, are you Are you the bridesmaid? Shannon?
Speaker 10 (30:14):
I am one of the bridesmaids. Yeah, okay, okay, yeah,
you know, I really thought it was an honor, but
now it's getting a little weird and a little stressful.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Can we ask before we get into it, how you
know the bride?
Speaker 10 (30:28):
So we've been friends for like ever, like since kindergarten.
Speaker 13 (30:31):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (30:33):
That's always one of those where you're like, are you
still really that close or is it just you know,
sometimes it can go either way.
Speaker 10 (30:40):
It's one of those. We don't have to talk every day,
we don't live in the same state anymore, but we
get together. It's time has passed.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Yeah, okay, that's awesome.
Speaker 6 (30:48):
Yeah, that's cool. So what's going on with the bride?
Speaker 10 (30:52):
So here's the thing. She recently got engaged to her
boyfriend and she asked me to be a bridesmaid. Of
course they said yes. So then a few days later,
I get this email and it has an attachment and
it's a bride maid contract.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
Contract that's business like or just like you're going to
actually follow through and pay for this stuff.
Speaker 10 (31:12):
So it like outlines all her expectations of being part
of the wedding.
Speaker 3 (31:17):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
Interesting, you know, it probably came from somebody told her,
like some advice somewhere, was like, lay out what your
expectations are and then you won't have any drama.
Speaker 4 (31:26):
I've been sent a PowerPoint before, have you. Yeah, but
she's a teacher, so it's her thing on like nails
and outfits and like what we expected. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (31:35):
When I heard that, I thought it was a joke,
but that that's something that actually for a contract.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
Is a little different than a PowerPoint. What did it say?
Speaker 10 (31:45):
So I actually have it in front of me if
I'm going to read you some of these.
Speaker 6 (31:47):
Okay.
Speaker 10 (31:47):
One is attendance mandatory for all pre wedding events, including
dress fitting, bachelor party, bridle shower, and spontaneous gathering.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
What spontaneous? I mean that can't that can't be you.
You live in another state. There's no way you.
Speaker 10 (32:02):
Can make spontaneous like I can't be spontaneous to do that.
Speaker 6 (32:06):
Well by a flight last second. If you actually cared
about her, then you wouldn't make it happen.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
I even think the dress fitting is ridiculous.
Speaker 10 (32:14):
Oh this is a good one too. Weight management. Must
fit into dress as is. No diet accordingly, no, yeah, yeah, okay,
but that one I can kind of understand, because you
want to look good in the photos.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Right out of here, Jeff, No one, no.
Speaker 6 (32:31):
One, No one wants to look good in photos.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
There's no way in before a wedding.
Speaker 6 (32:35):
Okay, Like I didn't get in your way in. I
just must fit in your dress.
Speaker 10 (32:39):
No diet, diet accordingly?
Speaker 6 (32:41):
Okay, okay, Maybe that they'd cross triggered me, Jeff, obviously,
I'm afraid to even continue to ask if there's anything
else on the guys, Oh god, okay.
Speaker 10 (32:54):
Groom proximity, no flirting, joking or standing too close to
the groom, no exception.
Speaker 6 (33:00):
Okay, you know what, Now I have to draw the line.
Speaker 1 (33:03):
That's a weird thing that you would even have to say,
is your best friends weird?
Speaker 6 (33:08):
Has he cheated or something?
Speaker 1 (33:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (33:10):
Is there history? I'm with jose on that one.
Speaker 10 (33:14):
No, not as far as I know. I know she
has one of her bridesmaids is a little bit of
let's say, maybe a trollope.
Speaker 6 (33:28):
So maybe that will was specifically designed for that particular
brides maybe.
Speaker 10 (33:34):
But here's the one that really irks me too. Financial commitment.
You're expected to contribute a minimum of two thousand dollars
towards the entire events, travels and gifts. Wow, And at
the bottom it says to sign it and return within
twenty four hours or else penalties would occur.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
This is God. But she's like, ha ha ha.
Speaker 10 (33:58):
No, I'm literally on group chat with all the girls.
They think she is out of her mind. So I'm
reaching out to you guys because they're all like pushing
me because I've known her the longest to have a
conversation with her.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
A bridesmaid union. You're going to rise up and fight
against the man.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
I like it.
Speaker 6 (34:15):
The situation sounds pretty serious, which is great that we're
putting it in an awkward Tuesday where jose can contribute
his knowledge and advice on brides.
Speaker 8 (34:24):
I'm so scared to talk.
Speaker 6 (34:29):
It's so funny.
Speaker 2 (34:31):
I mean, I think here's the thing.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
This is a really important conversation because the bride is.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
A little out of her mind.
Speaker 1 (34:37):
She's alienating all of her closest people, and someone needs
to tell her that's what's happening.
Speaker 6 (34:43):
Yeah, maybe that someone should be brooked because she feels
the strongest about it. By the way, Shannon, what is
the bride's name?
Speaker 2 (34:50):
Oh yeah, para.
Speaker 6 (34:54):
The first part of terrible. That's not I'm not going
to say.
Speaker 9 (35:01):
Name.
Speaker 6 (35:01):
So let's circle the wagons here, team, we're gonna come
up with some top notch advice to give Shannon before
she calls the bride to confront her about the bridesmaid contract. Say,
you've gone too far.
Speaker 7 (35:16):
Girl.
Speaker 6 (35:17):
You're gonna do it with your awkward Tuesday phone call
right after this. Hold on, it's awkward.
Speaker 11 (35:22):
It's Tuesday.
Speaker 6 (35:24):
It's awkward Tuesday phone call. We just heard from a bridesmaid.
Her name is Shannon, who told us about her friend's
extremely reasonable bridesmaid contract that she sent out to the
whole bridal party. Some of the clauses in there include
minimum dollar amounts required in order to participate, weight restriction rules,
(35:46):
and limits on groom proximity. Now again, I've never been
a bridesmaid before, but if I was, I would think
that'd be pretty normal stuff. Brook tends to disagree. She
has a little bit more experience with this stuff than me.
But the bottom line is Shannon has been nominated by
the entire group to call the bride and talk her
(36:09):
down from some of the expectations laid out in the contract.
That's why she needs a little bit of advice before
she does it. Brooke, We're gonna start with you. What
advice do you have for Shannon?
Speaker 1 (36:17):
Okay, for Shannon, the most important thing is you need
to come to her as her friend. Okay, Yeah, this
call is because you've got her back and she hasn't
thought all of this through yet.
Speaker 2 (36:29):
Like, of course, all the bridesmaids are gonna sign it.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
But what if this document, this contract got leaked on
social media, this bride may become.
Speaker 2 (36:38):
Literally the most hated person on the internet.
Speaker 1 (36:40):
And not only is that not deserved, but like it's
also like such a distraction from her big day.
Speaker 2 (36:47):
You know, she has this little window right now I see.
Speaker 6 (36:49):
The advice is to threaten to leak it onto the internet,
no embarrassed.
Speaker 1 (36:54):
The advice is to tell her you have this little
window right now to just tell everybody it's a joke.
Speaker 6 (37:00):
Okay, wait a minute. She has a chance to back out,
do you what do you think about that, Shannon?
Speaker 10 (37:04):
She's not one to back down. But I do think
that if people found out, I would hope that she
would maybe see that.
Speaker 1 (37:12):
That's you got to set it up that way before
you ask her to tell it.
Speaker 6 (37:17):
Is blowing up right now.
Speaker 8 (37:18):
So a lot of people have opinions.
Speaker 6 (37:19):
Okay, so there's one piece of advice for you now.
Jose has already said that he is too scared to
give any opinion or the other.
Speaker 5 (37:27):
I don't want to be in the room because I
feel like a lot of drama's about to happen and
it's gonna yell that's fair.
Speaker 6 (37:32):
So instead we're gonna go to Alexis. The bride's made experts.
Makes sense.
Speaker 4 (37:38):
I'm a way we're asking me because I probably would
have already signed it and just sent it back.
Speaker 2 (37:41):
So I'm too scared.
Speaker 4 (37:45):
Yeah, but if you are brave enough to confront the bride,
then be like, you are going to be a great bride.
I love your plans, and then go into like, but
you're a little psycho.
Speaker 1 (37:54):
But that's what I love about you, you know, But
that's what I love about it.
Speaker 2 (37:58):
You have a bout.
Speaker 1 (37:59):
You never had a infirntation with any one of your friends.
Speaker 6 (38:04):
Just do back down like that already. Come on, So
it sounds like say some sweet things, compliment her a
little bit before you bring the criticism.
Speaker 10 (38:15):
Like some compliment sandwiches.
Speaker 2 (38:17):
Nobody ever sees through that.
Speaker 6 (38:18):
Although the compliment sandwiches might be a problem with the
weight restrictions on.
Speaker 5 (38:23):
The sandwich, Jennery order cucumber sandwiches either way.
Speaker 6 (38:26):
Now we're going to call the bride teara here and
we will step back and let you make your call. Oh,
just keep the advice in mind and know that we
have your back to We're going to jump in if
you feel like you need a little help.
Speaker 10 (38:36):
Okay, I'm really nervous. My hands are sweating, but thank
you for your question.
Speaker 8 (38:40):
Remember this is your friend.
Speaker 6 (38:42):
Yes, so you have the benefit of the doubt act
that way.
Speaker 14 (38:44):
Here we go, Hello, Hey, who's.
Speaker 10 (38:59):
Grow shan't.
Speaker 15 (39:02):
Do you get a new number or something? Where are
you calling from?
Speaker 10 (39:07):
Yeah, I had to use my phone being funny.
Speaker 7 (39:10):
So it's interesting because Melanie texted me earlier and she
said that you're gonna call because there's something about the wedding.
And honestly, I'm starting to feel some type of way
because none of you guys have signed the contract and
it's the deadlines ten night at midnight, so.
Speaker 10 (39:28):
What's going away? I didn't know if she'd do that.
Of course she would. Maybe we just dive in. First
of all, very excited for the big day. We all are.
Speaker 15 (39:43):
Yeah, you should be. It's gonna be amazing. I gotta yeah.
So you've gond kind of foolish right now?
Speaker 10 (39:48):
Well what no, Listen, I love your enthusiasm for your
big day, and I just kind of wanted to maybe
have a little conversation about said trapped.
Speaker 15 (40:01):
She gets to the point, Okay, you know, I mean,
you're the most loving and constructive way possible, But it
was girl, I don't have time to this with us.
Speaker 10 (40:10):
Okay. Well, like number one, the weight management thing, Amber's
trying to get pregnant, and you've got this girl terrified
if she's to get pregnant because she's like, I can't
gain any weight, and that's the problem.
Speaker 15 (40:21):
She's not having cleanses.
Speaker 10 (40:23):
She at least no listen you, your dress is kind
of form fitting. She's never gonna hide if she by
the time your wedding come, she would be pretty pregnant.
Speaker 15 (40:34):
I'm not really liking your tone.
Speaker 9 (40:35):
Girl.
Speaker 15 (40:35):
Let me tell you something. I went to Shana's wedding
in a hot pink bridesmaid dress put together with duct takes.
So the least yup just can do for me is
show up sober and symmetrical and.
Speaker 10 (40:54):
Much you know how, like things hit the internet like
what if one of these girls talked about it or
post about it, and then it's you're gonna look like
this crazy bridezilla.
Speaker 15 (41:04):
First of all, I can't believe that you would.
Speaker 12 (41:06):
What are you do that to me?
Speaker 15 (41:08):
I would I held your hair back in Vegas.
Speaker 10 (41:12):
Okay, First of all, we weren't going to talk about that.
We made a pack about it.
Speaker 15 (41:16):
Well wait, we're not gonna leak anything online.
Speaker 10 (41:20):
Either, Karah. I adore you, I love you, can you.
I'm coming from a place of love and friendship. Take
a breath. The groom part, like the no flirting or
talking or I mean, can't even look his direction, like,
that's that's a little bizarre.
Speaker 15 (41:35):
Listed Listen, listen, listen, listen.
Speaker 10 (41:38):
You and I both know who has polish tendencies and
we do not.
Speaker 15 (41:44):
You and I both know that is not directed at you.
I'm not gonna say, listen, there is no compromising on that. Okay,
well that one.
Speaker 10 (41:54):
That one's fine.
Speaker 9 (41:55):
Leave that one.
Speaker 15 (41:56):
But like the minimum two thousand dollars in the travel
and the no missing it, Like I don't live in
the same state.
Speaker 10 (42:02):
So that might be a problem.
Speaker 15 (42:04):
It might be a problem, but it's not my problem.
Speaker 13 (42:06):
But listen, I deserve a perfect day, and by god,
I'm going to have it.
Speaker 10 (42:19):
What is going on?
Speaker 2 (42:22):
He told you that was way too casual?
Speaker 10 (42:26):
Shon.
Speaker 6 (42:28):
Yeah, Shannon's there, and so is there a radio show
called Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning. You're on the
radio right now, Tara.
Speaker 8 (42:34):
Good morning, Tara.
Speaker 6 (42:35):
All, okay, it's okay, everything's okay.
Speaker 1 (42:43):
And she was just scared on how to bring this up,
so she needed some help and that's where we came in.
Just it was all out of like she said, love
and friendship. That's where we're coming from. Answer my question
is this, that's a good question, Brook.
Speaker 12 (42:59):
Is and it.
Speaker 10 (43:06):
Today.
Speaker 15 (43:07):
I am okay, okay, hold on, this is a.
Speaker 10 (43:11):
Station in my town, not yours. Even know you there's
no connection.
Speaker 15 (43:17):
Oh okay, that makes it so much better.
Speaker 6 (43:20):
All she's asking, Tara, is if maybe you would consider
relooking over your contract with the girls because it's kind
of intense for some of them.
Speaker 10 (43:29):
All of us want to be in your wedding. We're
all gonna just sign the contract, but I just I
feel that if this is kind of how things are
going to go, we'll just go to Tona a smidget.
And you know, I don't do well with confrontation, and
I am very sweaty. Palms, my arm pillar are very sweaty.
Speaker 15 (43:45):
I gets true.
Speaker 7 (43:46):
I'm way you are bright right right, I'm like, I know.
Speaker 10 (43:50):
You know, and I'm like, I'm sweating. I'm sweating in
all my crevices.
Speaker 6 (43:56):
And that's good for the weight loss part of the
contract that out. So she's trying. What do you think, though, Tarah,
do you think that maybe you would consider I know,
I know it's a lot to ask, but it would
mean a lot to Shannon and to all the bridesmaids
if you'd sit down with them and just go over
the rules. And maybe make a couple amendments so it
(44:18):
works better for everybody.
Speaker 15 (44:19):
We'll talk about it. Okay, we can talk about it. Okay,
I'm gonna tell you right now though, is staying okay?
Speaker 1 (44:29):
Okay, you have a really questionable best friend.
Speaker 15 (44:37):
We love her.
Speaker 14 (44:38):
She's at Howish.
Speaker 2 (44:39):
Okay, you have her for the plot.
Speaker 6 (44:41):
I get it. Yeah, we all got one.
Speaker 2 (44:44):
I don't think I have anyone that will take my mayn.
Speaker 8 (44:47):
Looking at her.
Speaker 6 (44:49):
That's not what I meant.
Speaker 11 (44:50):
But freaking Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 6 (45:02):
You've got a brand new player today who is about
to graduate from college coming up here. His name is Zach,
and he says he wants to crush Brooke as his
graduation presence before going off to get his master's degree. Wow, Brook,
you don't want to crush the dreams of a college
(45:22):
grad full of hope and whatever mixed cocktails he was
chugging last night.
Speaker 2 (45:27):
Do you if he's.
Speaker 1 (45:28):
Got to go back and get his master's degree, he
needs a fuel of some defeat to power him through.
Speaker 6 (45:32):
Okay, Yeah, you know, well, Zach, welcome to your soon

I'm getting in theology, kneesiology, etiology.
Speaker 3 (45:49):
Yeah about like.
Speaker 8 (45:50):
When you have a call.
Speaker 6 (45:53):
You'll get to that with his futures degrees. But let's
send Brook out of the studios. We can get to
the game here, Zach, you know how works. He got
thirty seconds to answer as many q Uessians as possible.
If you don't know when, you could say pass. But
you have to beat her out right if you.

Now, Brooke, it's your turn. Are you ready?
Speaker 2 (47:54):
Yeah, I'm ready.
Speaker 6 (47:54):
Your time starts now. Today is International Dance Day. What
network does Dancing with the our is era? What's the
name of the process in which water turns into vapor?
Speaker 10 (48:05):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (48:06):
Oh, my god evaporation?
Speaker 6 (48:08):

Speaker 1 (48:11):
Uh?
Speaker 6 (48:12):
Triton breaking a bottle against the ship before its maiden

What color do you get when you mix red and yellow?
Speaker 9 (48:26):
Orange?
Speaker 6 (48:28):
Oh, we're gonna find out if any of that's right
when we go to the scoreboard and checking on the
score with Jose.
Speaker 9 (48:35):
All this.
Speaker 5 (48:37):
Talking, that's a jam, Harry says, album, Zach, you got
to correct today.
Speaker 6 (48:47):
And Brook yet well you got five. So it happens.
Speaker 2 (48:53):
When you got a big net, Zach, you learn things.
Speaker 5 (48:58):
What was that?
Speaker 6 (48:58):
This phone's breaking up? Your phone's breaking up a lot.
Let's go over the answers for everybody. It's International Dance
Day Dancing with the Stars airs on ABC. The process
where water turns into vapor is called evaporation. The god
of the sea in Greek mythology is Poseidon breaking a
bottle against Chip before its main voyage is known as christening.
(49:21):
In the Lion King Scar is the main villain. And
when you mix red and yellow you get the color orange.
Speaker 2 (49:28):
I studied art in college, so I totally knew that one.
Speaker 6 (49:31):
Yeah, so, Zach, I'm sorry, man, it wasn't enough to
beat Brooke today. But the good news is just for
playing you do get a pair of tickets to see
Shadow Force in theaters, starring Kerry Washington and Omar Sai
along with a promotional prize pack from Lionsgate Pictures.
Speaker 9 (49:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (49:53):
I think his phone got dropped in a toilet at
one of those frat parties. All the weekend's.
Speaker 8 (49:58):
Skydiving as we speak, to be really impressive.
Speaker 1 (50:01):
So, I mean, it's so weird that we can hear
the wind whistling through your phone.
Speaker 2 (50:09):
But not your actual poet.
Speaker 3 (50:12):
Definitely the pool at the at the party it is.
Speaker 6 (50:15):
Well, don't let's ruin your good vibe, Zach. Come back
and play again soon. We're gonna do wind Brooks Bucks
same time
Speaker 11 (50:21):
