Moral dilemmas take center stage as we dive into the thorny question: should you tell a friend when you discover their partner is cheating? Our "Am I the Jerk" court weighs a situation where someone sent photographic evidence of infidelity directly to the person being cheated on, only to face backlash from their friend group. Judge Janine delivers a verdict that champions honesty, suggesting that true friendship sometimes requires difficult conversations.
The conversation takes a lighter turn with our birthday-themed "Would You Rather" game, offering listeners a chance to win tickets to my upcoming Comedy Birthday Bash. Questions like choosing between one amazing gift or ten terrible ones create moments of levity before we welcome special guests Principal Marchant and Vice Principal Monette from Show Low High School. These passionate educators share details about their upcoming Back-to-School Days and their impressive progress in preparing students for life beyond graduation. Their school philosophy—wrapped in the memorable acronym "ERA" (Earn everything, Respect everyone, Account for yourself)—demonstrates their thoughtful approach to education.
Our resident country music expert Paul from Beaumont joins for a round of trivia, showing off his impressive knowledge of country music history while sharing news about Ozzy's final charitable concert. We wrap up with a podcast-exclusive segment featuring producer Ryan, who describes his perfect first date with the memorable line that he's "the escargot of dating—an acquired taste." Whether you're navigating relationship ethics, preparing for a new school year, or just enjoying our casual conversations, this episode delivers authentic moments that reflect the everyday questions we all face.

The Honorable Janine Fordpresides.
I'll read the story and when wecome back, janine, we will get
your ruling.
Here we go All righty.
A few months ago in a groupchat I'm in it blew up.
Someone shared a photo of aperson we all know clearly
cheating on their partner.
(00:39):
We checked both their socialsand there was no sign of a
breakup or divorce.
So we figured maybe they justhadn't updated things online.
Fast forward to last week.
Another photo gets dropped inthe same chat same person,
different date and again nottheir spouse.
(00:59):
I got this weird feeling, so Imessaged their partner directly
and asked hey, are you two stilltogether?
They said yes.
So I sent the photos, explainedwhen and where they were taking
and just laid it out.
The group chat went nuts.
People were saying they'llnever share gossip with me again
.
But listen, if someone wascheating on me, I'd want to know
.
Twice is no coincidence.
And now some folks in the groupchat are mad that I said
(01:22):
anything.
Am I the?
Speaker 2 (01:23):
jerk chat are mad that I said anything.
Am I the jerk?
Yeah, you know, it just makesyou think of the Jumbotron,
thing that we just all witnessed, you know, with this video and
his HR person, I don't know.
You know one of those thingsthat just you know.
You know, if the pictures areout there, they're out there and

, right, and that's what thestory didn't go into is that you
know how this person wasconnected to that one.
But it is a friend and gosh,I'd like to know and you would,
you'd want to know.

Not doing it is kind of yucky.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
So you think the group chat is the jerk, in this
case the group that's not doing.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
It is kind of the jerk, and I don't see that
person letting that other personknow.
Hey, if you're doing it andit's out there and there's some
pictures of it, then guess whatFair game you know?

Yeah, 11 to 3, thursday, friday Thursday we're
going to prioritize the freshmenand sophomores and on Friday
the juniors and seniors.
But if you can only make one ofthe days or you got multiple
kids, you can come on either ofthose days and you don't have to
(09:29):
be there from 11 to 3 o'clock.
You don't have to be there.
You don't have to quit your joband go down for four hours at
the high school.
You know like, yeah, spare us,spare yourself, you don't have
to be there four hours, right?

Pop in um at a time within thatwindow that's convenient for
you.
Uh, if your kid can't be withyou, if they're, if they're gone

upcoming school year?
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Personally just meeting all the new people Kids,
teachers, watching.
We got a really good set of newteachers coming in.
I'm excited to watch them workin the classroom and watch the
kids get to know them and theirpersonalities.
And yeah, every time we get awhole new crew of freshmen or
(10:52):
transfers and stuff.
It's just great to see newfaces and get to know more of
our students in our community.
Speaker 5 (11:00):
Yeah, I think it's just watching our school
continue to grow.
I mean our student populationcontinues to grow as our town
grows.
But just the successes thatwe've had, getting students
ready for their next steps withMr Marchant's leadership and his
vision that's what our schoolis all about is getting students
ready for their next steps intheir career or college action
plan, and we're just seeing theresults of that here now.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
Yeah, yeah, In the summer it's always a fun thing
that we get to look at the datafrom the past year.
When you're in the trenches ona day-to-day you don't see the
growth like you'd like to, butthen in the summer you can kind
of take a step back and look ateverything.
And every summer we have tosubmit what's called CCRI data,
so College and Career ReadinessIndicators, and it's just a
(11:46):
bunch of data points to show ifour seniors that we graduated
were ready for their next steps.
And that number continues to goup and up and up.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
Heck, yeah, way to go , yes, so we're at, 18.4 was our
number.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
The previous, last year was 16.3, and that was the
record number for Shola HighSchool.
So we just continue to go up inthat area and preparing our
kids for their next step, andthat's what gets me fired up.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
So I love it Heck yeah, and we're excited for
another great school year morelearning.
What advice do you have for theincoming students for this year
?
If you had to give them one tipfor a great school year, what
would you tell them?
Speaker 5 (12:27):
My tip is always get involved in something, whether
it's a sport, a club, anyactivity.
Just get involved, Find whatyou like and surround yourself
with people that like the samething, and you're going to have
a good time.
Speaker 1 (12:40):

of the next era.

respect everyone and account forourselves, and that you know,
if you're keeping track, thatspells era and so yeah, so be
part of the next era and youknow respect, you know earn
(13:02):

that we get to look at the datafrom the past year.
When you're in the trenches ona day-to-day you don't see the
growth like you'd like to, butthen in the summer you can kind
of take a step back and look ateverything.
And every summer we have tosubmit what's called CCRI data,
so College and Career ReadinessIndicators, and it's just a
(11:46):
bunch of data points to show ifour seniors that we graduated
