In today's Phone Tap, we do a little social experiment. Okay,
what would you do if you were put on the spot?
And basically a woman who works at a restaurant taking
reservations there was faced with two choices either lie for
the customer who she's on the phone with, or bust
him in front of his wife.

Speaker 1 (00:23):

chose to do in your phone tap right now.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
For two? Or two? Let me just take a look here,
Hold on one second. Also, sorry, I hope it's not
too much to ask. Can I request like a table
maybe in the back, away from the windows, you know,
maybe something more like pri it and secluded. Sure we'll
