Speaker 1 (00:00):
We've actually had a lot of people bring up something
on the show that they're like, I didn't notice this
at first, but it's become more and more and more apparent.
And a friend of mine even asked last night, said,
myself and some coworkers are wondering about something that's going
on on the show. Can you talk about it? I said, well,
(00:20):
it's not really my place to talk about it, so
we'll let Jenny talk about this.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Yeah. I thought i'd at least get through this part
without crying, but I'm not.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
It's okay, take your time.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Andrew and I are no longer together. We broke up
about a month ago. Honestly, been one of the hardest
months of my life. He was my person, my best friend,
(00:54):
just someone I laughed with constantly to the point of crying.
And I really thought that, like.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
He was it for me.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
But things just don't always work out, and you know,
we did end things, and yeah, I have been struggling
a bit. I won't lie. I come in and I
try to laugh and have fun on the show, but
(01:30):
behind the scenes, all three of you have seen me cry.
And I go home now to an empty house that
I used to share with this person, and it's been.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
It's been really hard. Oh buddy.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
He was just such a huge part of my life,
as you guys obviously know, and I pictured this future
with him, So I'm not only morning like losing this person,
but also like a future I thought we were gonna
have together. And I know people go through break ups
(02:21):
a lot, but this one is definitely one of the hardest.
I mean, I've spent the last five plus years of
my life with him.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Sorry, it's okay, I'm I'm I admire you for talking
about it. There's so much that I want to say,
but the last thing that I want to do right
now is to be that friend that tries to give
you advice, because there I will only tell you that
I think we've all, if you're old enough, you've been
in a relationship where it's like this is the one
(03:00):
I can see. Not only do I love them now,
but I love the idea of that future us and
those trips that will take and the experiences that we'll
have together, even if it's just like laying in bed
and touching each other's feet, you know, just all the
things that you look forward to. And now not only
(03:21):
is that presence gone, and I'm not trying to rub
it in, Jenny, but I'm only you know, expressing. I
think the empathy that a lot of people have is
that future goes away too and now there's a void,
and there's a void where that future was. And you know,
somebody will some meaning, well meaning person will come along
and say there's plenty of fishing machine, or you'll find
(03:42):
someone that's not helpful, and you don't want to find
somebody else, you want that person, I think, and I
don't want to speak for you, but I think that
there's it's just one of those It's one of those
things in life that just sucks, and there's no the
best way that the best way to get through it
is to go through it, not try.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
To avoid it. People will try to avoid.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Things by not thinking about it, or you know, getting
together with somebody else right away. And I think that
you know, and I don't want to give you advice,
but I think that we all know that sometimes the
best way through something is to get to the other side,
is to go through it. Have you gotten a lot
of people who have been melt well meaning and like, oh, Jenny,
(04:24):
like I can see Cindy because she loves you. Your
mama calling you up and saying everything's fine, you just
need to go out on another date.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
No, no, no.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Quite the oppoe. And I mean we were very infiltrated
into each other's lives. So you know, I've spoken with
his mom, and my mom and my family are shocked
that this is happening. They also thought that we were
going to be together. And so yeah, it's it's been
(04:59):
a hard a hard time. I have a really good
support system that has been there for me, but it
doesn't take away from there's the feelings you feel when
you're by yourself.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
No, it's true, and it's so lonely. It is.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
There's a loneliness that is like a This is one
thing that I've noticed about love. It's so freaking important
to us. What are nearly all songs about love?
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Love or heartbreak? Love or heartbreak?
Speaker 1 (05:37):
This's either a song telling you how much I love you,
or it's a song telling you how much I hurt
that we don't have that love anymore. Love is that important.
So when you hear somebody like Jenny going through this,
it's like, yeah, because it hurts, and most of us
(05:59):
get it. If you've not ever understood this feeling. Trust me,
one day you will. And it's not like when you
break up when you're eighteen years old. And not to
diminish the pain that when you break up and you're
eighteen years old, this is a five year relationship time,
which is which is a long time. And when you're
(06:19):
eighteen or twenty years old and you break up, somebody
got it hurts.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
It hurts.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
I know somebody whose daughter broke up and they were
just crushed and then two months later they were fine
because you're eighteen and you're twenty one or whatever, but
at a certain point inlight, it really does hurt. Well, Jenny,
we're here for you, thank you, And I think we
did bring in some shots of Fireball.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
Yes we did, and I think Bagpiper coming as well. Jenny.
I know it's literally just four hours out of your day,
but you know, I hope that we for the time
that we're here, like, can you know, take your mind
off of anything and everything? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (06:52):
I mean I will say that, you know, people reach
out to us and say that we've helped them through
hard times in life, and this show has definitely helped
me through hard times. Sometimes I come in and I
can't be on my A game because I feel like
how I feel right now. But I love coming into
the show and being here with you guys because it
(07:14):
at least gets my mind off of things for at
least four hours a day.

are coming in. There's tons of love from people for you. Yeah,
we appreciate that.
