Jennifer & Ben Could Be On the Outs, And the Internet is Concerned About The Girls Trip

Episode Transcript

(00:00):
You're waking up fifth ki Oh,sorry about that. I uh went to
go live and then I decided tohit the lock screen on my phone three
or four times in a row,and it was like, do you want
to call the police? Are youhaving an emergency? It's like, no,
sorry, I had a little coffeethis morning. So if I'm coming
off cuckoo, that is why Idon't typically do this show caffeinated. But

(00:23):
it's a Friday. We're gonna talkabout Ben Affleck and Jalam, specifically what
it means to live separately and potentiallygoing on trips without your significant other.
Now, I think of the regularworld, girls' trips and guys trips happen

(00:44):
around the tri state without a shredof second thought all the time. But
when something like this happens in theceleb world, the Internet takes it from
zero to one hundred. This storyactually started trending yesterday that Ben and Jen
are on on the She had goneon a mother's day trip without him,
she went on a girls strip instead, et cetera, et cetera. I

(01:06):
refused to touch it yesterday until ithit a source that I trust, So
when I saw it on DMZ thismorning, said, all right, let's
get into it. A little bitof a timeline for you. Ben and
Jen were last spotted by paparazzi togetherin March. Since then they have gone
on and done separate projects, whichI think is typical. Right. He's
filming The Accountant two. She didthe met Gala, He did the Tom

(01:26):
Brady Rose. Back and forth andback and forth right now in California,
though it looks that they are livingin different places, and Guys, it's
really not that far. It wouldbe like me living in Kenwood and then
someone I was dating or married toliving in Westchester. You're like, well,
like, why wouldn't you just drivehome and live together? So that
was the first suspicious thing, right. Second, j Lo had been house

(01:49):
hunting without Ben. Could it bethat they're upgrading their estate? Yeah,
again, we're on the outside lookingin, right, But they just bought
that estate for like millions a coupleof years ago. If they are on
the this would be j Loo's fourthmarriage and divorce. It's not weird for
me to witness that because my momwas married and divorced four or five times.

(02:12):
I've lost track. My dad ison his third marriage. So together
the three of them I think arecounting seven or eight, and by the
way, neither of them are happy. But millennials have witnessed this time and
time and time again, so it'slike we've seen this, so it's not
odd for us to be like,oh wow, someone's getting married and divorced
again. That happens so many times. But the thing that's trending that people

(02:37):
are like ooh this morning on isthat she had gone on this Mother's Day
girls trip and she had gone ona trip without her husband. Again.
In our world, that feels regularand normal. So I want to hear
from you outside of our phone lines, which is just an easy way to
connect five one, three seven fournine one oh seven one. You can
also hit me on the talk backwith tiff on the Iheard app. When

(02:58):
you hold down that microphone, you'vegot thirty seconds to let me know if
you are doing this. You're goingon trips without your significant other, right,
I would even argue that if youaren't, there might be a problem
in a relationship if you can't goon a trip separate from your significant other.
In fact, we might all havethat friend in our group that has
to ask for permission to leave somewhereor they have to check in, right,

(03:22):
I want to hear about them aswell. In the meantime, if
you're just sticking around trying to havea good Friday, I would love that
too. We're commercial free. Idon't know what I would do without my
girls getaways. They're so important,And my boyfriend goes on golf strips.
I think it's like, you know, we're going on a trip separate,
maybe like every single week or oncea month. Probably not, but like

(03:43):
I don't know, two times ayear, three times a year sounds fun
to me. You're waking up withfifth in the morning, Kiss one,
thank you for the talk back withTIFFs, so I'm not talking to myself
here. You'll see the microphone nextto the play But when you listen to
kiss on the iHeartRadio app, youhold that down. You have thirty seconds
to contribute. We're in the midstof talking about if girls in guys' trips
separate from your significant other mean thatthere is a problem in the relationship.

(04:08):
I think in the regular world thatyou and I live in, not so
much. Right, Maybe you dohave that friend that you know is just
going on trips without our husband becauseshe just doesn't like him. But in
the celebrity world, the internet isspeculating that Ben and jen benefit are no

(04:30):
longer because they'd been spotted separately,living separately. She had gone on a
trip without him. Like I said, in our world doesn't always mean that,
but in the celebrity world it might. Sometimes we have more. We're
going to continue to check your talkbacksif you want to jump in on this
story. Boyfriend and I we goon our own trips sometimes my work doesn't

(04:50):
have many days off with pea timeoff and his head unlimited, so he
can go wherever whenever he wants andstill works remotely and I can't. So
I let him see whatever he wants. Because of his money, we can
have fun and then when we haveour trips together, we have together.
All I heard from that message,and thank you for leaving it. By

(05:10):
the way, is that her winschoelwipers are on and that means it's Friday
and the try stay with the raincoming in today. Yeah, you're on
tip in the morning. Do youhave experience with this? And I can
speak to this one, okay,yes, please? So I actually before
the divorce and I kind of sawthings are going downhill living together but living

(05:34):
separately. I went on a tonof trips without them, including family trips
and girl trips. There were alot. And in two weeks, I'm
actually about to see the in lawswithout him in Florida. Oh my god,
really your stated that happens. Ibet quite a bit though, where

(05:54):
you've become super close with your inlaws and it's really hard to let them
go. Yeah, they're like reallysweet about everything, and they're like,
why don't you just come to Floridaand hang out for a couple of days.
And I said, I'd love tojust make sure he's out there,
and they were like done deal.Uh, let's take a detour from the
Jalo and Ben conversation. I wantto open up our phone lines too,

(06:14):
to anyone that is still connected totheir in laws if they're divorced or even
broken up. Five one three sevenfour nine one oh seven one. I
broke up with my ex blank timeago, and I still stay friends with
their in laws with my in loss. Thanks Al,
