Speaker 1 (00:00):
He's advice.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
Your sumcle company would never offer you free flowers for
a survey. It's war of the roses.
Speaker 3 (00:06):
I'm Katie w B.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
We've had a lot of unusual war the roses lately,
and this one is also unusual because it is not
about somebody wondering if their partner is cheating. It is
a woman wondering if her sister is cheating on her husband. Okay,
let's get the story from Lauren.
Speaker 4 (00:26):
Hi, Lauren, Hey, Yeah, I'm calling about my sister Elizabeth.
I want to know if she's sleeping with her horse
writing instructor.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Okay, so not her trainer, not her jiu jitsu instructor.
This is a first for us, her horse riding instructor. Yeah, Okay,
tell me the story. What's up.
Speaker 4 (00:48):
Elizabeth separated from her husband three months ago, and she's
supposed to be working on herself and going to counseling
and not like dating or hooking up. But I'm pretty
sure that she is.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Okay, because when you're separated, I don't know a whole
lot about it, but you're supposed to be. You know,
it's not an opportunity to go hook up with other
people you live in maybe your own apartment or you
live back with your mom or dad or whatever. But
you're supposed to be working on making that marriage better.
Speaker 5 (01:16):
Right, Maybe go into therapy figuring out what's up with yourself,
knowing yourself a little bit better, and how to be
better in a relationship.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
So what makes you think that she's hooking up with
her horse riding instructor.
Speaker 4 (01:29):
Well, she accidentally texted me like not too long ago,
and she said, yes, we are writing two times a
week and writing and she wrote that in all caps
four or five times a week, and then she said,
my cat emoji is so sore, by I love it.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Okay, okay, now let's look at that. Honestly, you could
construe we've been writing a few times a week and
my cat emoji is so sore, but I love it.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
You're a horseback riding yeah, but she didn't say it
that way.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
No, And I called her like when I got it,
and she was like, oh, shut up, Like I was
just talking about riding horses and like I need to
mind my own business.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
And you do it quite the opposite. Now.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Well, yeah, the problem is though, like she's always screwing
up and like ever since we were kids. I have
to like follow her around and clean up her miss
and that's why her and her husband are separated, because
she's just always screwing up. So I wanted you guys
to call her and see who she picks.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
You know, I feel bad for you because I've got
siblings that also make a lot of mistakes, but I
just try to keep my distance and let them make mistakes.
Speaker 5 (02:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Why do you care whether Elizabeth is making mistakes? Why
do you care whether she's with her horse riding instructor because.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
It always ends up like affecting my life.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Okay, okay, fair enough.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
So she you the text accidentally that says we're riding
a couple of weeks and riding.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
Did she say four or five times a week?
Speaker 5 (03:09):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Yeah, it's a lot of riding.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Yeah, I mean seriously, her cat emojia is sore.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Wow. Do you know anything about her horse riding instructor?
Speaker 4 (03:21):
No, just that she started taking lessons like a few
weeks ago.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Okay, Okay, very cool.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (03:26):
I feel like, Lauren, this is going to be something
that people text in about. Do you have some kind
of attraction to her husband that you feel like you
owe him something or what's.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
The deal with that?
Speaker 4 (03:37):
No, not at all. Like I said, it's just like
since we were younger, I've always had to like pick
up after her, take care for a message, and it's
just like exhausting, and I want her to just like
be an adult.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Okay, Well, I'm going to tell you a lot of
people are going to give you the advice to just
let her go. Let her go. You know what, you're
both adults. Let her go mess up her own life.
But you know what, at the same time, you kind
of love them and you kind of want to keep
them out of trouble or rescue them.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
Here's what we can do.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
We can call her and say, you know, normally this
bit is called war of the roses, but we're not
going to say who do you want to send flowers to?
But we can do is call and say, Okay, take
this survey and we'll get you like a deluxe get
away weekend at the name somewhere fancy the yeah, and
you get a dinner, and you get a gift card
and you blah blah blah, who do you want to
(04:27):
take along with you? Because if she separated, she has
the opportunity in the privacy to vanish for the weekend.
Who will she vanish with? Though, Let's find out next
on War the Roses on Katie WB.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
Are they cheating?
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Let's find out Part two of War the Roses starts
right now.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
On Katie w B.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Bring up to speed on Katie w B. Is this
brought to you by Ovo Lasy Glynn and tell you
that thank you, Ovo Lazy GLYNNZ appreciate you.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
So, she has a sister and she's annoyed with her
sister because her sister is always making messes. And then
she says, her whole life, she's had to run behind
her sister and clean up her messes. Not I didn't
get into those, but her sister is separated, and her
sister is not supposed to be hooking up with other guys,
and they're supposed to be working on yourself and therapy.
(05:17):
And you know, your separation is not to end the marriage.
It's to try to make the marriage work. That's what
I understand about it. So she's taken horseback writing lessons.
Her sister is the separated one, and she the sister
on the phone gets a text from her that she
accidentally sent to her sister that said something like, yeah,
we've been writing two or three times a week and
(05:38):
riding in all caps four to five times a week,
and my cat emoji is sore.
Speaker 5 (05:44):
Yeah, I got a little spicy. And so she confronted
her sister and was like, what's this button?
Speaker 1 (05:47):
She was like, it's just a joke, but mad.
Speaker 5 (05:49):
The overwhelming amount of people that are not on the
sister's side, who's trying to do more of the roses?
It is insane. It's like, this lady needs therapy. She
needs to butt out. I think this lady to go
to therapy. Why does she feel she needs to rescue
or clean up her sister's mess. Let her sister be
herself and if she screws up, it's really not her problem.
And I like this one a lot too, because this
is kind of how I felt when we talked to
(06:11):
these girls.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
I would never do this to my sister.
Speaker 5 (06:15):
Sisterhood is ride or die someone texting, no matter who
or what you ride. Just like a shocked that this
sibling is willing to do this to her sister and
just put her on blast.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
Whose side are you on?
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Well, let's find out what's going on with the horseback
riding instructor and set the trap and see who she
chooses for like a weekend get away, because you're not
going to choose your horseback riding instructor for a weekend
get away unless there's something else going on.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Making the phone call right now on Katie w b.
Speaker 5 (06:57):
Okay, Elizabeth, Like I said, it only was going to
take a few minutes. And now I do have that
deluxe weekend stay at the It comes with complimentary dinner,
a couple's massage. It's pretty romantic actually, so it'll be
a fun little weekend getaway.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
And what I need now is who do you want
to join you for this?
Speaker 4 (07:17):
Yeah? That's amazing.
Speaker 6 (07:21):
Yeah put yeah Jacob.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
Oh oh my god, I heard.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
A disgusted sigh in the background. Here's where the bubble bursts. What,
Elizabeth high, I know the bubble is bursting right before
your very ears. We were This is a ploy and
you are the victim of the ploy. This is not
(07:49):
this is not a free giveaway. There's no weekend stay.
There's not even a survey. It is a ploy to
see who you would choose for this romantic getaway weekend.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
No, you have every right to be confused. So my
name's Dave. I'm on the radio with KTWB, And that
was Jenny. She's on the radio with KTWB too, and
so listening in somebody that you know put us up
to this to see who you would choose.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Oh my god, do you want to guess who put
us up to this?
Speaker 6 (08:24):
Yeah, it's my sister. That's my sister.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
How did you know? And by the way, she's listening
right now?
Speaker 6 (08:31):
Yeah, okay. I mean I've heard this kind of thing
on the radio before, Like I've heard this, Like, I
just didn't think there's nobody else who's gonna like, oh
my god, you don't.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Think your husband would baby try.
Speaker 5 (08:43):
To do this.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
I don't know who you are.
Speaker 6 (08:46):
I don't know why you're judging me or taking that
tone with me right now. But we are separated, so
I'm not really sure why you need to.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
Like, what my what are you?
Speaker 2 (08:59):
You might you might have missed the part where we
are on the phone with somebody who put us up
to this, and that's Lauren who put us up to this?
Because Lauren has a few things that she wants to
say to you now that she knows that you want
to spend the weekend at the with your horse riding instructor.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
Elizabeth, You're you're screwing this up again. You're not even
supposed to be seeing that. It's like it's not a
free for all.
Speaker 6 (09:26):
You need to mind your own business, that's really I'm
just it is like, oh my god, I think you can't.
Speaker 4 (09:33):
Ask like an adult, but you never have, and a
family just has to run behind you concerantly cleaning up
your methods like it's exhausting.
Speaker 6 (09:41):
Okay, that you exhaust me.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
How do you feel how do you feel about how
do you feel about Lauren? Like budding into your business?
I mean, you can go to the Radison with whoever
you want to. I'm going to guess that is your
horse riding instructor.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
I'm not gonna talk about that, okay, fair.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
How do you feel about Laura and like budding in
your business?
Speaker 3 (10:02):
She sucks.
Speaker 6 (10:03):
She sucked her whole life and she's just even worse.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
No, but you're trying to with Lauren. You're trying to You're.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Trying to help her, that's what that's what you're doing.
Speaker 6 (10:13):
You're trying to help me by putting me on the radio.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
That's really nice.
Speaker 6 (10:16):
That's because I asked so thoughtful, you're so with you're
you're you're the one addicted to the drama. Why are
we on the radio?
Speaker 4 (10:25):
Oh my god, because you liked me about it. I
already tried to ask you, and you just flat out lied. Okay,
I can't.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
What's the phrase they use in Minnesota, watch your own bobber?
Is that what it is?
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Yeah? You never heard that one before. No, it's like mine,
it's mine your own business. Been in Minnesota, Wisconsin, they
go watch your own bibber.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
I've never heard.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
That, that's it.
Speaker 5 (10:43):
I only heard of it because of someone who called
into the show once and said that that was like
her dad's advice. But yes, it's very true. I mean,
those two definitely sound like siblings that fight. You can
just see it.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
Well, that's the thing, is like we can sit here
and go, well, watch your own bobber, but we don't
know the history of how much maybe she has done
everything from bail her out of jail to you know,
pay for a lawyer, pay for her rent. Who knows
what sister number one? I get their names mixed up.
I think Lauren's the nosy one and Elizabeth is the
one riding the horse.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Yeah. Well, not just but also listen, I get it.
Speaker 5 (11:20):
If you have to clean up after your sibling constantly,
it's exhausting. But this feels like something that's like, what
does she have to clean up?
Speaker 1 (11:26):
Who cares? It's her own relationship. Let the girl get
a ride of.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
I don't know, because maybe she will. You know, she's
like off with this writing instructor. She's gonna screw up
her marriage and then she's gonna be unhappy and then
start dating another loser.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
I don't know. What's the book that everybody's reading now,
Just let them or.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
Let them Let them by Mel Robbins, So just let them.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
We got to talk about that book someday because people
are like saying that book is plagiarized from a poem.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
Have you heard that?
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Yes? I have heard that.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Yeah, but people love that booth.
Speaker 5 (11:57):
Whether it's plagiarize or not, that is very stuff if
it is, and I think it is.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
However, Mel Robbins is fantastic.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
I don't know anything about her.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
She is a great podcaster, she's a speaker, and.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Honestly she is. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
I could go into a lot, but we're talking about
War of the Roses, so let them.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
So it's okay for her to plagiarize as long as
he's a great Speaker's that's what I heard you say.
Speaker 5 (12:19):
I'm saying I don't know the logistics behind all of
those claims. However, I've been listening to mel Robins on
podcasts for a very long time, and I have learned
a lot through her and and her let them theory
makes a lot of sense, even though apparently maybe it's
on her theory.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Text messages mind your own bobber is ten percent Minnesota thing.
Another says, I tell my kids all the time, mind
your own bibb. Or another one says, maybe you shouldn't
want to stay with her husband yet communication is important.
Maybe she's going at her own pace. I think that
that's the thing is that sometimes when you're separated, some
(12:58):
people want to work it out, and some people are like,
I'm done.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
It's like counseling.
Speaker 5 (13:03):
Or you get separated and you're like, hmm, this is
kind of nice.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Actually freedom made.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Yeah, will you call Susan and tell her that we
want to try that, because yeah, yeah, but your son room.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
No, because that's my favorite room in the house. You
can have the front living room. It's much more spacious.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
Can you imagine Saturday morning, you wake up, there's me
sleeping on your couch, drooling on your best pillows, snoring.
Speaker 5 (13:32):
Yeah. Da sleeps in a little bit later than me
on weekends, so I'd probably be up making bracket noise.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
You'd be like, shut up in the
