five moments and I got them for you right now.
Let's start with number five. We came back from Labor
Day on Tuesday. You know a lot of people coming
back to work, maybe some new listeners to the show

Speaker 2 (01:16):
So you gotta have the iHeart app, which is free
to download. iHeartRadio app. You download it, you stream Kiss
Want to Wait live anywhere you go, and when you're
doing so, there's a red microphone little icon. You tap
that and you can leave a thirty second message. Now,
the cool part about the talkback is that message comes
directly to me and then I in turn put it
on the radio and incorporate it. And basically you become
(01:38):
a co host of the show, which is something that
we love. And once you do that, you become a
member of the talkback Mafia.
Speaker 5 (01:43):

day or night.

Speaker 11 (07:19):
Doing the weather with the long fake Cinderella hair or
Disney hair. Oh god, it's just like some sort of
a weird TV show. It's bizarre. All the TV local
TV people. You can tell their extensions because Lisa told me.
But it's like some weird trend where like they're overdoing it,
you know, like a Disney character with the hair down
(07:40):
to their knees.
Speaker 5 (07:42):
Micro pulls me into.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
This next moment.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
One of my favorites this week could have been number
one if you ask me, but it lands at number four.
It is justin hair Happy Saturday. I'm counting down the
best moments from the Billy and Lisa Show. And yes,
number four white lies you told as a kid.
Speaker 7 (08:02):
We found this on BuzzFeed and they did this little
thing on little white lies that we've all told over
the years, and have they backfired on you? Like, was
there one that sort of you know, was told maybe
back in school that then you got into trouble for
So there are actually some pretty good ones that people
shared on BuzzFeed.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Would you like me to read a few?
Speaker 3 (08:23):
I would love that, Lisa Donovan.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Okay, So.
Speaker 7 (08:28):
I pretended I couldn't talk for fun at my new school,
and then my parents had to come to school to
prove that I could talk. I wrote my sister's name
on the closet wall and crayon I told my mom
and I tried to frame my sister.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
She said that my sister couldn't write yet. Really backfired.
Here's a good one.
Speaker 7 (08:45):
I convinced my friend when we met years ago that
I was the Gerber Baby. We ended up dating for
a while, and he told all of his friends that
he was dating the.
Speaker 5 (08:53):
Original girl baby.
Speaker 7 (08:54):
It wasn't until last year when it came up and
I told him that it was all a bunch of crap.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
He was legitimately shocked.
Speaker 7 (09:02):
Another one was I lied to my entire grade that
I got a girl pregnant in seventh grade and had
a son. Oh my god, all right, that probably didn't
go well. This one is my favorite. I once made
a Valentine's Day card for my stepdad for a secret
admirer with a fake kiss that it used one of
my classmate's lips as.
Speaker 5 (09:17):
A model for.
Speaker 7 (09:18):
I left it on the side of the bed. It
did not go well. It turns out he was an
habitual cheater.
Speaker 5 (09:24):
Oh boy, where did that card come from?
Speaker 3 (09:27):
That's backfire?
Speaker 5 (09:28):
Lisa, do you have a white lie?
Speaker 1 (09:30):
I do. I actually covered up from my sister.
Speaker 7 (09:32):
We were throwing, like, you know, a ball in our
house when we were younger, and my parents had this
beautiful like stained glass window case thing and it broke,
it shattered, and they were away. They came home and
I lied for my sister. To this day, they never
know it was her who threw the.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Ball, and I said it was one of our friends.
Speaker 9 (09:52):
And they still do not know because they don't listen.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
He broke it. Well, you never know that.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
She get Bill on the phone, Dad and tell him.
Speaker 5 (10:01):
Ye, clear it all off, clear it all up. Justin
you have one. I'm almost afraid to ask.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
Well.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
I unfortunately told a lot of lies when I was
younger that a lot of them I regret, But one
as a kid was I was throwing a ball with
my cousin like Lisa, and we weren't supposed to play
the nearther street and we didn't listen, and my cousin
threw the ball into the street. I went to get
it got hit by a car. I got knocked out
for a couple of seconds, woke up and the guy
got out of the car to try to help me,
(10:28):
and I remember I looked up and my cousin was
like giving me the signals a run, So I just
ran away from the house. So then we fast forward
like an hour later. The guy came to my house
and knocked on the door, and my cousin swarming to
not say a word, and then the guys like I
hit a kid, And my father's like, what are you
talking about? And I come down and I'm like, I
(10:50):
didn't get hit, and I had a shirt covering my
knee had a big leg the mark. And not long
after that, I went to the doctor for a physical
and I had the mark on my knee and they're like,
where did you get that?
Speaker 5 (11:02):
Tell them, oh, God, did you have a hitch?
Speaker 3 (11:05):
I had a hitch a little bit.
Speaker 5 (11:06):
Yeah, when you got one.
Speaker 9 (11:07):
I mean I think I have like legit lies like
I have. Actually I don't know in the white lie
legit lie. But my one that caused a lot of
issue was that my sister had a first communing ring
that she told me not to wear.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
I wore it.
Speaker 9 (11:21):
She came home, I noticed I had the ring on still,
and I panicked and I put it in my mouth
and I swallowed it. So then I had to tell
everybody because it was inside of me. So my mom
had to take me to the doctor's and get an
X right, and there was only one way to get
it out.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Wow, that was that was no.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
I had to go to the bathroom.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
I had to go to the bathroom. So that backfired,
It really did.
Speaker 5 (11:43):
I was logging that batfired on me. But that was
one of the thing.
Speaker 9 (11:47):
Yeah, she didn't want it back.
Speaker 5 (11:50):
I got a quick one, quick one.
Speaker 6 (11:52):
When we were young, you know, we live right on
the railroad tracks and these cambra, so we used to
hop the trains all the time, you know, my brother
and my friends and anyway, so my brother and I
one other friend, his name is Richie.
Speaker 5 (12:02):
I'll just leave it there.
Speaker 6 (12:03):
We were hopping the trains and running along the roof
of the moving trains and hopping from.
Speaker 5 (12:07):
Car to car.
Speaker 6 (12:09):
Richie fell between the train cars and basically lost in
the air. And we stayed with him until the ambulance arrived,
and then we all left and we because the first
question my mother asked, you came home that day, Hey,
what happened to Richie today? I guess he had an
accident with the train.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
I said, yeah, I.
Speaker 6 (12:25):
Heard he was goofing around down by the trains, and
we said we weren't there. And then like two or
three days later, I walked by the front steps of
the house, and my mom was there with Richie's mom,
and Richie's mom was informing her that I was on
the top of the train with Richie.
Speaker 9 (12:39):
So Richie's a snatch.
Speaker 5 (12:42):
Yeah, I guess Richie must have told his mom, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
The brothers are with me.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
You know what Billy was saying to him, I get
we are moving right along on a Saturday, justin here.
Number three moment from the Billy and Lisa showed this
week was our topic time. The topic white Lies. You
told as a kid that maybe nobody ever found out.
Speaker 6 (13:00):
About Michelle good Morning, and what the hell did you
lie about.
Speaker 12 (13:06):
Good Morning? It wasn't me who lied for this, it
was my daughter. My daughter's father is Armenian, and my
daughter has very much Armenian features. Shechands easily. She's got
dark haired, dark eyes, and when she was in middle school,
somebody commented that she looks like the Kardashians, and she
(13:29):
told everybody that they were her cousins. She's twenty six
years old. The whole town still thinks that she is
cousins with the Kardashian I respect that still lives. It
still is and she's like you can't tell anybody. I
was like, I won't tell anybody until today.
Speaker 5 (13:49):
Everyone else what town is?
Speaker 12 (13:51):
It?
Speaker 10 (13:52):
Is? Hell?
Speaker 12 (13:53):
So it's like that little rinky day.
Speaker 10 (13:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (13:55):
Yeah, if you live in there's a fake Kardashian walking around.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
She is not related to Kim's larious.
Speaker 5 (14:03):
That's a good start. Let's go to Sarah. You're up next, Sarah,
Do you have a lie you want to share?
Speaker 4 (14:10):
Hi? I do.
Speaker 13 (14:11):
This is actually a bad one. So I was asked
to babysit at like the age of eleven. I don't
know why anyone would let their toma babysit their kid,
but anyway, in the nineties, the perfume came out. It
was called k one and it came in like a
glass jar, a glass bottle with a twist cap. And
the mother of these kids had it and it was
(14:32):
it smelled so good, so I wanted to take some.
So I poured it into a paper cup and I
forgot to take it home with me, and one of
her sons, who was like two at the time, picked
up the cup and drank it.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
Oh go.
Speaker 13 (14:47):
And they were like ooh, like they asked me so much,
what happened did you do this? And I just denied it.
I'm sure they knew from day one, but I didn't
even admit it to my mom until I was an
adult that it actually was me. Oh be okay, Yeah,
he was fine, but they had to take him to
the emergency room. They didn't know what it was that person.
(15:07):
Then they found the cup and smelled it.
Speaker 5 (15:10):
Yeah, see, that could have been a dangerous one, totally.
Speaker 13 (15:13):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
Okay, can I add one to that to that shor
yeah like that.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
But they had alcohol in the house when I was younger,
you know, vodka and stuff, and I would steal the
alcohol and then fill it with water.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Oh yeah, yeah, the chick in the book.
Speaker 6 (15:28):
Yeah, I mean that's where some people will take a
really good vodka bottle and put lousy vodka in it
if it's for the company.
Speaker 5 (15:37):
But I've never heard of putting water in the bottle.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Well, they had they had this vodka from Peru. I'm
not sure if it was a vodka, but it was,
you know, it was a clear alcohol, very strong.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
It was called pisco.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
Oh yeah, you've heard of this, yeah, absolutely?
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (15:49):
Was it from Peru?
Speaker 3 (15:50):
From a pis sour pisco?
Speaker 5 (15:51):
Yeah, yeah, that's a popular drinking Peru the pisco sour.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
We would drink it and then put water into.
Speaker 6 (15:57):
Let's go to the phones, and I believe it's the
mayor of the South End.
Speaker 5 (16:01):
Good morning, mayor good morning.
Speaker 10 (16:04):
I have a necessary lie.
Speaker 5 (16:07):
Okay, it was necessary.
Speaker 10 (16:10):
Well, I was going to confession with all my little friends.
They were all boys, and you know, father blah blah.
So they said, make sure you tell him that you
look at girls in sinful ways. He would have to
you look at girls in sinful ways. Of course, I
don't look at girls. I want to go shopping.
Speaker 13 (16:29):
I don't know how to look at it.
Speaker 10 (16:32):
I said. I took, I took a deep breath, and
I said, yes, Father, I look at girls. And I
was trying to get out of a camping trip that
he wanted to invite several boys on. So you know
the end of that story.
Speaker 13 (16:47):
Okay, live in fairytales.
Speaker 5 (16:53):
Let's go to Emily next. Go ahead, Emily, what was
your lie?
Speaker 12 (16:58):
Mine's actually very simil to the Kardashian one. My middle
name is my mom's maiden name, Olsen. So I used
to tell kids in elementary school that I was related
to Mary Kate Nashley Olsen.
Speaker 5 (17:08):
Oh, I love that one.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
That's a good one.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
Yeah. Was there any benefit to that?
Speaker 9 (17:15):
No?
Speaker 14 (17:15):
I just thought I was cool.
Speaker 5 (17:19):
Does the lie still live.
Speaker 15 (17:23):
To most?
Speaker 10 (17:24):
Yes, but not many.
Speaker 12 (17:26):
They didn't really believe me.
Speaker 6 (17:28):
Lies in fairy tale again, you just lies in fairy tales.

You got talk backs in there, justin I don't.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
Even know where to stop here. You have so many liars.
Speaker 16 (17:36):
When I was a kid, I told everyone at a
summer camp that my name was Ginger, and when I
came home, I had won an award with my name
on it. My mom thought I stole someone's award because
it said Ginger on it, and then I had to
confess that everyone at that camp thinks my name is
now Ginger. By the way, my real name is Jennifer.
Speaker 14 (17:55):
Lies in fairy tales.
Speaker 17 (17:58):
Oh Man, I was years old and had been out
with friends and got home and thought I put the
car in park, and I didn't, and it slid into
the grudge.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
Door, causing a noticeable dent.
Speaker 17 (18:08):
And the next morning, when my parents asked what happened
to the door, I played stupid, and for some reason
they thought it was the postman, so they called and
screamed at the post office, and I got away with it,
and the post office had to buy this new grudge door.
Speaker 13 (18:21):
Oh no, I'm and they still don't know live in fairytale.

here number two.
Speaker 18 (19:26):
A few weeks ago, I said I don't do my
husband's laundry, and a lot of people were saying, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Those are small acts of kindness. Why wouldn't you want
to do that for your partner. But here's the thing,
small acts of kindness that are mostly domestic labor just
add up to work at the end of the day.
So here's a list of things that I don't do
for my husband. You all know, I don't do his laundry.
He can do that himself. I do my laundry, and
we do the kid's laundry, but he does his own.
(19:48):
I don't cook dinner. He cooks dinner every single night.
I do breakfast and lunch for us and our kids.
I don't pack him at lunch. If he's hungry, he'll
figure out what he's going to eat for lunch the
same way.
Speaker 8 (19:57):
That I do.
Speaker 18 (19:58):
I don't make his doctor's appointment because guess what, he's
not making mine. Would it be kind of me to
do that? For sure?
Speaker 4 (20:04):
Is it my job?
Speaker 18 (20:05):
Absolutely not. I want him to be healthy, but he's
a grown ass man and he can book his own appointments. Right.
There's a lot of things that I don't do for
my husband. I don't schedule his haircuts. I don't pack
his clothes for vacation, right, I don't do those things.
I don't buy him new underwear when it's got holes
in it. All of those are things that he's a
grown man and he can do himself.
Speaker 5 (20:23):
I'm so glad I've never met this p Yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Okay, as you can probably hear, this video has caused
quite the star online.
Speaker 7 (20:31):
Yeah, she has a lot of things that she want
to do. So there was another thing that happened yesterday.
Katie Perry, the singer, was on Call Her Daddy the
podcast with Alex and she was sharing things that her partner,
Orlando Bloom does around the house that she really likes.
Speaker 5 (20:48):
Someone that won't just help.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
Like if I come downstairs and the.
Speaker 9 (20:52):
Kitchen is clean, and you've done it all, and you've
done all the dishes and you've closed all the pantry.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Doors, you better be ready to you.
Speaker 14 (21:01):
I mean, like literally, that is my love language.
Speaker 5 (21:04):
I don't need a red Ferrari.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
I can buy a red Ferrari.
Speaker 7 (21:10):
Okay, all right, So we have on the one hand,
she's she doesn't want her guy to do it, and
then on the other hand, Katy Perry that gets her
going does the dishes.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
That's all she needs.
Speaker 19 (21:26):
For a little you know, I will say this, just
listening to that woman and and then listening to Katy Perry,
I almost feel like I have to go home and
figure out what I might be doing wrong and not
even realize it.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
That's actually a really good point. You should. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (21:41):
So, so I know that you have a story to share.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
Justin Well, this happened recently in the past year, about
a year ago. You know, my wife and I were
going through a tough time, you know this highs and
lows and marriages, and you know, she was really stressed out.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
All the work around the house, that chill, all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Justin was doing zero okay inside the house and so
and she would tell me I need help, and I
just wasn't hearing it because in my head I just thought,
you know, she takes care of the house.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
I do the outside, she does the inside.
Speaker 5 (22:14):
Yeah that was your rule originally. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
So, you know, it got to a really you know,
a really tense point, and she said to me, you know,
you know what really makes me happy and gets me going,
it's when you do things around the house, when you
help me with the kids, help me with laundry, and
I thought that she was making it up or lying
or just telling me something, you know, just to say it.
And then I thought to myself, why don't I just
(22:36):
try it? So I made a commitment to just start
doing the dishes and doing the laundry. And you know,
she doesn't do it at all. And let me tell you,
it's been a complete game changer. Yes it's extra work,
and yes it took a lot of pain to get
to this point. But for the past year I've been
doing the dishes, doing the laundry, cleaning the house, scrubbing
the bathtub, doing things to take take doing things to
(22:59):
take them off of her plates.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
Right, And it's like a it worked, It worked. Well,
she's just happier, right.
Speaker 6 (23:11):
Well.
Speaker 7 (23:11):
My takeaway from this is is I think everyone has
different things that they're into, different things that they want,
you know, and don't want around the house or not
around the house, or outside inside wherever. My takeaway is
that you were listening to your wife and what she
was telling you finally sunk in and then you changed
your behavior.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
And I'd like to.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Say for any anybody out there, any any guys, the
husband's out there, you know, don't be like me and
wait till it gets the point of crying and fighting
and being very emotional to get that message.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
That's what it took for me.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
It took some pain to get there, but I'm glad
that glad that it did.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
Well, you need to figure out.
Speaker 15 (23:47):
Good thing about Billy is Billy You're literally like a cleaner, right,
so you had that in you ingrained in you where
you're very vacuum You do dishes, you put things back
like you like laundry.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
You used to remake the beds.
Speaker 6 (24:01):
Well, that could be a source of annoyance though. It's
like kind of insulting her, right if she makes the
bed and then I redo it.
Speaker 3 (24:07):
Well, don't you hide that from her?
Speaker 1 (24:08):
Well?
Speaker 3 (24:09):
Or does she know you do that?
Speaker 5 (24:10):
Sometimes she catches me?
Speaker 1 (24:11):
Does she care?
Speaker 15 (24:17):
I'm sorry, honey, I didn't mean sure.
Speaker 9 (24:19):
I couldn't help myself.
Speaker 6 (24:22):
No, but yeah, no, I'm legitimately freaked out.
Speaker 5 (24:25):
I feel like I have to go home and find
out if well, I've been like.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
Are the things that Michelle won't do for you? You know?
You know that woman listed a bunch of different things.
Speaker 5 (24:35):
Yeah, nothing that I can think of.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
That's good. I think you guys ask for a lot.
Speaker 6 (24:41):
Yeah, but I will say, like, you know, I naturally
go and I'll go start doing the dishes right and
she'll say, don't do those, leave those right there.
Speaker 5 (24:51):
And you know I'll get them.
Speaker 6 (24:52):
And I'm like, now I'm torn between whether she really
wants to do the dishes or she doesn't trust me
doing the dishes.
Speaker 9 (25:00):
I mean, I think she's just trying to do a
nice thing.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
She's like, I got it.
Speaker 5 (25:03):
No, I don't think she thinks I do a good
enough job with the dude. So now you're mad, I don't.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
That's weird, is okay?
Speaker 5 (25:08):
I'm going to get home and straight Can I leave?
Speaker 8 (25:10):
Now?
Speaker 4 (25:10):
You need?
Speaker 3 (25:11):
Yeah, you need?
Speaker 2 (25:11):
You need to get Come on, Billy, what's up?
Speaker 3 (25:17):
Guys? Justin here?
Speaker 2 (25:18):
Welcome back. Number one moment from this week on The
Billy and Lisa Show. And you know, we cover a
lot of topics on the show and there's always like
a hot one of the week.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
This one was for sure buzzing.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
We're talking about things your significant other does or does
not do in your relationship numero.
Speaker 5 (25:36):
Okay, So first of all, I want to start something.
Topic time is a judgment free zone.
Speaker 6 (25:42):
Topic time is the time for people to express their opinions,
their feelings, what they think, what they believe.
Speaker 5 (25:49):
Nobody gets hurt. It's a judgment for a zone.
Speaker 6 (25:51):
Okay, So, having said that, the topic this morning is
what are you doing?
Speaker 5 (25:56):
What should you be doing? What do you do for
your spouse?
Speaker 3 (26:00):
What do you want?
Speaker 6 (26:00):
You're supposed to do exactly that they don't expect them
to do exactly.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Yeah, you know, I'll start with this.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
You know, a few minutes ago, I was explaining a
little bit of my marriage to my wife Jen, and
I explained how, you know, I wasn't doing anything, you know,
around the house, and she was, you know, stressed out
and backed up, and I really wasn't getting the signal
from her that she needed help with things laundry, dishes
or whatever. And I made the comment that, you know,
(26:28):
when we moved into the house, you know, she would
joke to me and say, listen, you take care of
the outside, the pool, the yard, you know, all that stuff. Yeah,
all to care of the inside. Maybe she was joking
about that, but maybe I took it too seriously.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
And you know, it's kind of an informal agreement.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
A little bit, you know, a little bit, but you
know that annoyed some people, so you know, I understand you.
Speaker 20 (26:48):
Hear Justin say that he's doing it to quote take
things off his wife's plate is infuriating. You bought that
house together, it's a communal plate, and assuming and that
all of the domestic responsibilities are on her clip and
that you are helping her with them is wildly offensive.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Oh sorry to offend you. Now let me respond to that.
You are one hundred percent correct, but you are missing
the point.
Speaker 3 (27:15):
The point is.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Life is about learning and it's about changing, right. And
you know when we had that a year ago to whatever,
we had that big moment, I saw where I went
wrong and I changed those behaviors, and so I try
to help as much as possible.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
I know it's both of us, yes, Lisa, But.
Speaker 7 (27:31):
Like I said before, the takeaway from this is that
if you want a good relationship, you need to be
able to listen to your partner and what they're saying
and try and act on.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
That yes, right, whatever that is.
Speaker 7 (27:46):
And I think that you're a great partner because you
finally had the epiphany you were listening to her.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
I'm learning to become one. I'm becoming a better partner.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Right, and I think that we could all learn from that.
Speaker 2 (27:59):
Yeah, I don't live in nineteen fifty. I wasn't born
in nineteen fifty. I understand that, you know what, we're
just trying to help the people, trying to help the
men out there.
Speaker 17 (28:06):
Yeah, could someone call my husband and have him listen
to this please?
Speaker 5 (28:12):
That was short and sweet, right, that was shortened street.
Let's go to the phone next and talk with Jennifer. Jennifer,
what is your story?
Speaker 8 (28:24):
I think that that lady's list is a little bit ridiculous.
Speaker 13 (28:28):
First of all, she have her sit down and write
a list.
Speaker 8 (28:31):
Yeah, she's thinking way too much about it. Yeah, so
certain things on there, I definitely agree, Like, you know,
individuals should do with themselves, like buying their own clothes
and make their own doctor's appointment. That shouldn't even be
like a part of the list. That just understood. But
separating in the laundry, I've heard we put all of
our laundry in one basket. Yeah, you know, so it's
(28:55):
kind of like.
Speaker 6 (28:59):
Yeah, and again topic time, I mean, nobody's keeping score here,
I think, you know, and I don't think people should
be keeping score at home. And who's doing what you know,
you just coexist.
Speaker 5 (29:08):
It's a it's a it's a relationship. It's not a
business contract.
Speaker 9 (29:12):
I just well, the thing I always say, like I'm
obviously a progressive millennial, Like I'm not, you know, I'm
not stuck in the fifties, right, but like, there are
certain things that if you want to have a more
gender role relationship that was constructed back in our grandparents
days or whatever that is you and like Lisa said,
it's literally what works for your marriage, your relationship. This
se and third, I mean there's now there's saying.
Speaker 5 (29:32):
Sex couples, there's this, there's that.
Speaker 9 (29:34):
It's like just but there are some people that take
on more domesticated roles and some people that take them more.
Like Justin said, the outside stuff, it really is your relationship.
So this lead that's like, so I'm progressive and I'm
not gonna do anything for him, Like okay, well maybe
your husband is cool with doing everything his own way.
Other relationships, it's like, well if I can do the laundry,
and we can when you get home from work and
say you phone your laundry, we can have some quality
(29:55):
time together. That's what I would prefer I would prefer
to your laundry when I'm home doing my laundry, so
that we can have quality time when you get off
of work. So I think it's literally just what you
prefer as a couple.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
Yeah, topic times a place to just be honest.
Speaker 12 (30:09):
I want to do nothing, and I want my boyfriend
to do everything.
Speaker 13 (30:15):
Not simple.
Speaker 12 (30:18):
Me.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
She knows what she wants.
Speaker 5 (30:20):
If that's what she wants.
Speaker 7 (30:22):
And you know what, share it with him and see.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
What he says.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
And you know the audio we played of the woman,
you know, she listed a bunch of things she doesn't do.
She doesn't do the dishes, she doesn't do his laundry,
she doesn't make as lunches. I didn't know people still
did that. You know, wives make their husband lunches. I
feel like that's an old school thing.
Speaker 21 (30:38):
So there are people that actually make their husband's lunch,
buy him underwear, and schedule his doctor's appointments.
Speaker 5 (30:45):
Question mark? Why?
Speaker 21 (30:48):
Question mark? I also have a full time job. In fact,
I make more money than my husband, and nobody does
that for me. Period. We just became empty nesters just
this week. And let me tell you, things around here
are going to change.
It's the best a Billion Lisa in the morning.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Hey guys, good morning, Welcome in first weekend of September.
Justin here, best of Billion Lisa is on a fun week,
short week. A lot happened, but they can only be
five moments and I got them for you right now.
Let's start with number five. We came back from Labor
Day on Tuesday. You know a lot of people coming
back to work, maybe some new listeners to the show
as well, so we wanted to kind of reintroduce ourselves,
(00:28):
if you will.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Number five.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
For those of you who just found the Billy and
Lisa Show this season, welcome. You are going to thank
yourself very soon. They are the best morning show to
listen to. You're not going to want to leave. And
this is coming from a regular talkbacker from the Mafia,
(00:51):
and I'm sure they'll explain that to you as well.
You were in good hands here.
Speaker 5 (00:55):
Hello me to reinduce myself. My name is Tyler. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (01:02):
We have a lot of regular things we do on
the Billion Lisa Morning Show. One big feature is the
Talkback Mafia, and what we do is we allow people
to reach out to us by way of the talkback
and we love it right, justin how does it work?
Speaker 3 (01:15):
That's right, that's right. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
So you gotta have the iHeart app, which is free
to download. iHeartRadio app. You download it, you stream Kiss
Want to Wait live anywhere you go, and when you're
doing so, there's a red microphone little icon. You tap
that and you can leave a thirty second message. Now,
the cool part about the talkback is that message comes
directly to me and then I in turn put it
on the radio and incorporate it. And basically you become
(01:38):
a co host of the show, which is something that
we love. And once you do that, you become a
member of the talkback Mafia.
Speaker 5 (01:43):
And you can do it anytime you want, anytime of
day or night.
Speaker 6 (01:46):
And you can also listen to this show anytime you want.
Speaker 5 (01:51):
You just go to the the Kiss you Want to
Wait website.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
You got my Heart app?
Speaker 5 (01:55):
Yeah, all over the world.
Speaker 6 (01:57):
By the way, if you've got relatives living in Peru,
they can listen to this show.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
I have relatives in Peru. Oh do they listen? I
have to ask see or no? See yes or no?
I don't know, Okay, I'll find out.
Speaker 7 (02:14):
Yeah, take us anywhere in the world. You're going on
vacation you're going away for work. You can still listen
on the iHeart app.
Speaker 6 (02:20):
Yeah, we've got the entertainment break that happens twice in
the morning at six forty and eight forty. We have
a weird Stories segment, stories that make us say want them, and.
Speaker 2 (02:29):

Secret Sound that launched today on the ten seven, ten

I can't wait for Winnie's story. I feel the need
to take notes. Okay, but you you know, we call
it in Winnie's world, but your world really is different
from anything else we know.
Speaker 9 (04:33):
I mean, yeah, I'm just your typical millennial. I'm from Quinsey,
born and raised. I've been a local girl. I worked
my way up here. I started in marketing. I interned
here when I was at Framingham State and I somehow
landed next to you guys. I don't know how. I
don't really speak well, so I don't know how. I'm
on the radio.

Florida for one overnight just to get her nail.

Speaker 5 (05:17):
Okay, that's enough for that. See there's an example of
our talkbacks right there.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
That is a talkback when you hear when you hear
random listeners chiming in. I don't always say it that's
a talkback, but that's what it is. Yeah, yeah, what
about you.
Speaker 5 (05:31):
I don't know what to say.
Speaker 6 (05:32):
I guess first and foremost, I'm a dad. I've got
three grown boys, very proud of all three of them.
But yeah, I've lived here my entire life. I mean,
I was born and raised in East Cambridge, very poor
section of East Cambridge, and I have never left the
state of Massachusetts and have spent most of my adulthood
on this show.
Speaker 5 (05:53):
It's scary when you think of it. You've been here forever.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Yeah, right, Well you started as a reporter in the afternoon, right, yes,
at Kiss Yeah, then you joined The Maddie Show, and
we're here for decades.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
Right.
Speaker 6 (06:06):
But before joining The Maddie Show, I traveled a lot
with the show, broadcasting from different parts of the world,
big events like the Grammys, the Golden Globe of the Oscars,
Olympic Games. But yeah, I've been on the morning show
for I don't know thirty six thirty seven years.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
And plus you have TV shows.
Speaker 5 (06:20):
Yeah, Oh, I do some TV.

Got some TV.

Yeah, And Lisa's book Club has been given credit nationally
for getting people back to reading.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
We're trying, and Billy's perfect with Lisa because you know,
he's kind of, you know, one of the girls.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Oh is so one of the girls.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Very he's very caddy Yep, you know, I mean, should
hear him in the morning we're watching the news on TV.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Should hear him.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
The Ken did microphone? No one ever knows when he's
talking into the candid microphone.
Speaker 11 (07:19):
Doing the weather with the long fake Cinderella hair or
Disney hair. Oh god, it's just like some sort of
a weird TV show. It's bizarre. All the TV local
TV people. You can tell their extensions because Lisa told me.
But it's like some weird trend where like they're overdoing it,
you know, like a Disney character with the hair down
(07:40):
to their knees.
Speaker 5 (07:42):
Micro pulls me into.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
This next moment.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
One of my favorites this week could have been number
one if you ask me, but it lands at number four.
It is justin hair Happy Saturday. I'm counting down the
best moments from the Billy and Lisa Show. And yes,
number four white lies you told as a kid.
Speaker 7 (08:02):
We found this on BuzzFeed and they did this little
thing on little white lies that we've all told over
the years, and have they backfired on you? Like, was
there one that sort of you know, was told maybe
back in school that then you got into trouble for
So there are actually some pretty good ones that people
shared on BuzzFeed.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Would you like me to read a few?
Speaker 3 (08:23):
I would love that, Lisa Donovan.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Okay, So.
Speaker 7 (08:28):
I pretended I couldn't talk for fun at my new school,
and then my parents had to come to school to
prove that I could talk. I wrote my sister's name
on the closet wall and crayon I told my mom
and I tried to frame my sister.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
She said that my sister couldn't write yet. Really backfired.
Here's a good one.
Speaker 7 (08:45):
I convinced my friend when we met years ago that
I was the Gerber Baby. We ended up dating for
a while, and he told all of his friends that
he was dating the.
Speaker 5 (08:53):
Original girl baby.
Speaker 7 (08:54):
It wasn't until last year when it came up and
I told him that it was all a bunch of crap.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
He was legitimately shocked.
Speaker 7 (09:02):
Another one was I lied to my entire grade that
I got a girl pregnant in seventh grade and had
a son. Oh my god, all right, that probably didn't
go well. This one is my favorite. I once made
a Valentine's Day card for my stepdad for a secret
admirer with a fake kiss that it used one of
my classmate's lips as.
Speaker 5 (09:17):
A model for.
Speaker 7 (09:18):
I left it on the side of the bed. It
did not go well. It turns out he was an
habitual cheater.
Speaker 5 (09:24):
Oh boy, where did that card come from?
Speaker 3 (09:27):
That's backfire?
Speaker 5 (09:28):
Lisa, do you have a white lie?
Speaker 1 (09:30):
I do. I actually covered up from my sister.
Speaker 7 (09:32):
We were throwing, like, you know, a ball in our
house when we were younger, and my parents had this
beautiful like stained glass window case thing and it broke,
it shattered, and they were away. They came home and
I lied for my sister. To this day, they never
know it was her who threw the.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Ball, and I said it was one of our friends.
Speaker 9 (09:52):
And they still do not know because they don't listen.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
He broke it. Well, you never know that.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
She get Bill on the phone, Dad and tell him.
Speaker 5 (10:01):
Ye, clear it all off, clear it all up. Justin
you have one. I'm almost afraid to ask.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
Well.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
I unfortunately told a lot of lies when I was
younger that a lot of them I regret, But one
as a kid was I was throwing a ball with
my cousin like Lisa, and we weren't supposed to play
the nearther street and we didn't listen, and my cousin
threw the ball into the street. I went to get
it got hit by a car. I got knocked out
for a couple of seconds, woke up and the guy
got out of the car to try to help me,
(10:28):
and I remember I looked up and my cousin was
like giving me the signals a run, So I just
ran away from the house. So then we fast forward
like an hour later. The guy came to my house
and knocked on the door, and my cousin swarming to
not say a word, and then the guys like I
hit a kid, And my father's like, what are you
talking about? And I come down and I'm like, I
(10:50):
didn't get hit, and I had a shirt covering my
knee had a big leg the mark. And not long
after that, I went to the doctor for a physical
and I had the mark on my knee and they're like,
where did you get that?
Speaker 5 (11:02):
Tell them, oh, God, did you have a hitch?
Speaker 3 (11:05):
I had a hitch a little bit.
Speaker 5 (11:06):
Yeah, when you got one.
Speaker 9 (11:07):
I mean I think I have like legit lies like
I have. Actually I don't know in the white lie
legit lie. But my one that caused a lot of
issue was that my sister had a first communing ring
that she told me not to wear.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
I wore it.
Speaker 9 (11:21):
She came home, I noticed I had the ring on still,
and I panicked and I put it in my mouth
and I swallowed it. So then I had to tell
everybody because it was inside of me. So my mom
had to take me to the doctor's and get an
X right, and there was only one way to get
it out.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Wow, that was that was no.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
I had to go to the bathroom.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
I had to go to the bathroom. So that backfired,
It really did.
Speaker 5 (11:43):
I was logging that batfired on me. But that was
one of the thing.
Speaker 9 (11:47):
Yeah, she didn't want it back.
Speaker 5 (11:50):
I got a quick one, quick one.
Speaker 6 (11:52):
When we were young, you know, we live right on
the railroad tracks and these cambra, so we used to
hop the trains all the time, you know, my brother
and my friends and anyway, so my brother and I
one other friend, his name is Richie.
Speaker 5 (12:02):
I'll just leave it there.
Speaker 6 (12:03):
We were hopping the trains and running along the roof
of the moving trains and hopping from.
Speaker 5 (12:07):
Car to car.
Speaker 6 (12:09):
Richie fell between the train cars and basically lost in
the air. And we stayed with him until the ambulance arrived,
and then we all left and we because the first
question my mother asked, you came home that day, Hey,
what happened to Richie today? I guess he had an
accident with the train.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
I said, yeah, I.
Speaker 6 (12:25):
Heard he was goofing around down by the trains, and
we said we weren't there. And then like two or
three days later, I walked by the front steps of
the house, and my mom was there with Richie's mom,
and Richie's mom was informing her that I was on
the top of the train with Richie.
Speaker 9 (12:39):
So Richie's a snatch.
Speaker 5 (12:42):
Yeah, I guess Richie must have told his mom, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
The brothers are with me.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
You know what Billy was saying to him, I get
we are moving right along on a Saturday, justin here.
Number three moment from the Billy and Lisa showed this
week was our topic time. The topic white Lies. You
told as a kid that maybe nobody ever found out.
Speaker 6 (13:00):
About Michelle good Morning, and what the hell did you
lie about.
Speaker 12 (13:06):
Good Morning? It wasn't me who lied for this, it
was my daughter. My daughter's father is Armenian, and my
daughter has very much Armenian features. Shechands easily. She's got
dark haired, dark eyes, and when she was in middle school,
somebody commented that she looks like the Kardashians, and she
(13:29):
told everybody that they were her cousins. She's twenty six
years old. The whole town still thinks that she is
cousins with the Kardashian I respect that still lives. It
still is and she's like you can't tell anybody. I
was like, I won't tell anybody until today.
Speaker 5 (13:49):
Everyone else what town is?
Speaker 12 (13:51):
It?
Speaker 10 (13:52):
Is? Hell?
Speaker 12 (13:53):
So it's like that little rinky day.
Speaker 10 (13:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (13:55):
Yeah, if you live in there's a fake Kardashian walking around.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
She is not related to Kim's larious.
Speaker 5 (14:03):
That's a good start. Let's go to Sarah. You're up next, Sarah,
Do you have a lie you want to share?
Speaker 4 (14:10):
Hi? I do.
Speaker 13 (14:11):
This is actually a bad one. So I was asked
to babysit at like the age of eleven. I don't
know why anyone would let their toma babysit their kid,
but anyway, in the nineties, the perfume came out. It
was called k one and it came in like a
glass jar, a glass bottle with a twist cap. And
the mother of these kids had it and it was
(14:32):
it smelled so good, so I wanted to take some.
So I poured it into a paper cup and I
forgot to take it home with me, and one of
her sons, who was like two at the time, picked
up the cup and drank it.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
Oh go.
Speaker 13 (14:47):
And they were like ooh, like they asked me so much,
what happened did you do this? And I just denied it.
I'm sure they knew from day one, but I didn't
even admit it to my mom until I was an
adult that it actually was me. Oh be okay, Yeah,
he was fine, but they had to take him to
the emergency room. They didn't know what it was that person.
(15:07):
Then they found the cup and smelled it.
Speaker 5 (15:10):
Yeah, see, that could have been a dangerous one, totally.
Speaker 13 (15:13):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
Okay, can I add one to that to that shor
yeah like that.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
But they had alcohol in the house when I was younger,
you know, vodka and stuff, and I would steal the
alcohol and then fill it with water.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Oh yeah, yeah, the chick in the book.
Speaker 6 (15:28):
Yeah, I mean that's where some people will take a
really good vodka bottle and put lousy vodka in it
if it's for the company.
Speaker 5 (15:37):
But I've never heard of putting water in the bottle.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Well, they had they had this vodka from Peru. I'm
not sure if it was a vodka, but it was,
you know, it was a clear alcohol, very strong.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
It was called pisco.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
Oh yeah, you've heard of this, yeah, absolutely?
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (15:49):
Was it from Peru?
Speaker 3 (15:50):
From a pis sour pisco?
Speaker 5 (15:51):
Yeah, yeah, that's a popular drinking Peru the pisco sour.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
We would drink it and then put water into.
Speaker 6 (15:57):
Let's go to the phones, and I believe it's the
mayor of the South End.
Speaker 5 (16:01):
Good morning, mayor good morning.
Speaker 10 (16:04):
I have a necessary lie.
Speaker 5 (16:07):
Okay, it was necessary.
Speaker 10 (16:10):
Well, I was going to confession with all my little friends.
They were all boys, and you know, father blah blah.
So they said, make sure you tell him that you
look at girls in sinful ways. He would have to
you look at girls in sinful ways. Of course, I
don't look at girls. I want to go shopping.
Speaker 13 (16:29):
I don't know how to look at it.
Speaker 10 (16:32):
I said. I took, I took a deep breath, and
I said, yes, Father, I look at girls. And I
was trying to get out of a camping trip that
he wanted to invite several boys on. So you know
the end of that story.
Speaker 13 (16:47):
Okay, live in fairytales.
Speaker 5 (16:53):
Let's go to Emily next. Go ahead, Emily, what was
your lie?
Speaker 12 (16:58):
Mine's actually very simil to the Kardashian one. My middle
name is my mom's maiden name, Olsen. So I used
to tell kids in elementary school that I was related
to Mary Kate Nashley Olsen.
Speaker 5 (17:08):
Oh, I love that one.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
That's a good one.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
Yeah. Was there any benefit to that?
Speaker 9 (17:15):
No?
Speaker 14 (17:15):
I just thought I was cool.
Speaker 5 (17:19):
Does the lie still live.
Speaker 15 (17:23):
To most?
Speaker 10 (17:24):
Yes, but not many.
Speaker 12 (17:26):
They didn't really believe me.
Speaker 6 (17:28):
Lies in fairy tale again, you just lies in fairy tales.
Speaker 5 (17:31):
You got talk backs in there, justin I don't.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
Even know where to stop here. You have so many liars.
Speaker 16 (17:36):
When I was a kid, I told everyone at a
summer camp that my name was Ginger, and when I
came home, I had won an award with my name
on it. My mom thought I stole someone's award because
it said Ginger on it, and then I had to
confess that everyone at that camp thinks my name is
now Ginger. By the way, my real name is Jennifer.
Speaker 14 (17:55):
Lies in fairy tales.
Speaker 17 (17:58):
Oh Man, I was years old and had been out
with friends and got home and thought I put the
car in park, and I didn't, and it slid into
the grudge.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
Door, causing a noticeable dent.
Speaker 17 (18:08):
And the next morning, when my parents asked what happened
to the door, I played stupid, and for some reason
they thought it was the postman, so they called and
screamed at the post office, and I got away with it,
and the post office had to buy this new grudge door.
Speaker 13 (18:21):
Oh no, I'm and they still don't know live in fairytale.
Speaker 6 (18:25):
Wow through the postman under the bus. I wonder if
he'd got, you know, penal line.
Speaker 5 (18:31):
Because that's.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
Oh god, the pension.
Speaker 10 (18:40):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (18:41):
Let's go to Steve. You're up next, Steve go.
Speaker 13 (18:45):
Yay.
Speaker 14 (18:45):
How you doing, guys? I got a story now that
now that my daughter is older, I can not I
can tell this one. So I used to go and
buy the cheapest tickets to the Boston got into every
concert she wanted to see. And then we'd walk in
and I'd go to guest relations limp and tell and
she'd go in there with me and I would tell
them I had the gout and they would put me
in a fold and tear. I always need fun.
Speaker 13 (19:06):
Wow.
Speaker 12 (19:06):
Love.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
That is a good hussle.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
So a couple of viral videos this week that were everywhere.
One a wife posted a video listing all the things
she does not do for her husband, and the other
one Katie Perry talking about what gets her going, you
know in that department in her marriage. Both covered right
here number two.
Speaker 18 (19:26):
A few weeks ago, I said I don't do my
husband's laundry, and a lot of people were saying, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Those are small acts of kindness. Why wouldn't you want
to do that for your partner. But here's the thing,
small acts of kindness that are mostly domestic labor just
add up to work at the end of the day.
So here's a list of things that I don't do
for my husband. You all know, I don't do his laundry.
He can do that himself. I do my laundry, and
we do the kid's laundry, but he does his own.
(19:48):
I don't cook dinner. He cooks dinner every single night.
I do breakfast and lunch for us and our kids.
I don't pack him at lunch. If he's hungry, he'll
figure out what he's going to eat for lunch the
same way.
Speaker 8 (19:57):
That I do.
Speaker 18 (19:58):
I don't make his doctor's appointment because guess what, he's
not making mine. Would it be kind of me to
do that? For sure?
Speaker 4 (20:04):
Is it my job?
Speaker 18 (20:05):
Absolutely not. I want him to be healthy, but he's
a grown ass man and he can book his own appointments. Right.
There's a lot of things that I don't do for
my husband. I don't schedule his haircuts. I don't pack
his clothes for vacation, right, I don't do those things.
I don't buy him new underwear when it's got holes
in it. All of those are things that he's a
grown man and he can do himself.
Speaker 5 (20:23):
I'm so glad I've never met this p Yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Okay, as you can probably hear, this video has caused
quite the star online.
Speaker 7 (20:31):
Yeah, she has a lot of things that she want
to do. So there was another thing that happened yesterday.
Katie Perry, the singer, was on Call Her Daddy the
podcast with Alex and she was sharing things that her partner,
Orlando Bloom does around the house that she really likes.
Speaker 5 (20:48):
Someone that won't just help.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
Like if I come downstairs and the.
Speaker 9 (20:52):
Kitchen is clean, and you've done it all, and you've
done all the dishes and you've closed all the pantry.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Doors, you better be ready to you.
Speaker 14 (21:01):
I mean, like literally, that is my love language.
Speaker 5 (21:04):
I don't need a red Ferrari.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
I can buy a red Ferrari.
Speaker 7 (21:10):
Okay, all right, So we have on the one hand,
she's she doesn't want her guy to do it, and
then on the other hand, Katy Perry that gets her
going does the dishes.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
That's all she needs.
Speaker 19 (21:26):
For a little you know, I will say this, just
listening to that woman and and then listening to Katy Perry,
I almost feel like I have to go home and
figure out what I might be doing wrong and not
even realize it.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
That's actually a really good point. You should. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (21:41):
So, so I know that you have a story to share.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
Justin Well, this happened recently in the past year, about
a year ago. You know, my wife and I were
going through a tough time, you know this highs and
lows and marriages, and you know, she was really stressed out.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
All the work around the house, that chill, all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Justin was doing zero okay inside the house and so
and she would tell me I need help, and I
just wasn't hearing it because in my head I just thought,
you know, she takes care of the house.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
I do the outside, she does the inside.
Speaker 5 (22:14):
Yeah that was your rule originally. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
So, you know, it got to a really you know,
a really tense point, and she said to me, you know,
you know what really makes me happy and gets me going,
it's when you do things around the house, when you
help me with the kids, help me with laundry, and
I thought that she was making it up or lying
or just telling me something, you know, just to say it.
And then I thought to myself, why don't I just
(22:36):
try it? So I made a commitment to just start
doing the dishes and doing the laundry. And you know,
she doesn't do it at all. And let me tell you,
it's been a complete game changer. Yes it's extra work,
and yes it took a lot of pain to get
to this point. But for the past year I've been
doing the dishes, doing the laundry, cleaning the house, scrubbing
the bathtub, doing things to take take doing things to
(22:59):
take them off of her plates.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
Right, And it's like a it worked, It worked. Well,
she's just happier, right.
Speaker 6 (23:11):
Well.
Speaker 7 (23:11):
My takeaway from this is is I think everyone has
different things that they're into, different things that they want,
you know, and don't want around the house or not
around the house, or outside inside wherever. My takeaway is
that you were listening to your wife and what she
was telling you finally sunk in and then you changed
your behavior.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
And I'd like to.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Say for any anybody out there, any any guys, the
husband's out there, you know, don't be like me and
wait till it gets the point of crying and fighting
and being very emotional to get that message.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
That's what it took for me.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
It took some pain to get there, but I'm glad
that glad that it did.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
Well, you need to figure out.
Speaker 15 (23:47):
Good thing about Billy is Billy You're literally like a cleaner, right,
so you had that in you ingrained in you where
you're very vacuum You do dishes, you put things back
like you like laundry.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
You used to remake the beds.
Speaker 6 (24:01):
Well, that could be a source of annoyance though. It's
like kind of insulting her, right if she makes the
bed and then I redo it.
Speaker 3 (24:07):
Well, don't you hide that from her?
Speaker 1 (24:08):
Well?
Speaker 3 (24:09):
Or does she know you do that?
Speaker 5 (24:10):
Sometimes she catches me?
Speaker 1 (24:11):
Does she care?
Speaker 15 (24:17):
I'm sorry, honey, I didn't mean sure.
Speaker 9 (24:19):
I couldn't help myself.
Speaker 6 (24:22):
No, but yeah, no, I'm legitimately freaked out.
Speaker 5 (24:25):
I feel like I have to go home and find
out if well, I've been like.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
Are the things that Michelle won't do for you? You know?
You know that woman listed a bunch of different things.
Speaker 5 (24:35):
Yeah, nothing that I can think of.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
That's good. I think you guys ask for a lot.
Speaker 6 (24:41):
Yeah, but I will say, like, you know, I naturally
go and I'll go start doing the dishes right and
she'll say, don't do those, leave those right there.
Speaker 5 (24:51):
And you know I'll get them.
Speaker 6 (24:52):
And I'm like, now I'm torn between whether she really
wants to do the dishes or she doesn't trust me
doing the dishes.
Speaker 9 (25:00):
I mean, I think she's just trying to do a
nice thing.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
She's like, I got it.
Speaker 5 (25:03):
No, I don't think she thinks I do a good
enough job with the dude. So now you're mad, I don't.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
That's weird, is okay?
Speaker 5 (25:08):
I'm going to get home and straight Can I leave?
Speaker 8 (25:10):
Now?
Speaker 4 (25:10):
You need?
Speaker 3 (25:11):
Yeah, you need?
Speaker 2 (25:11):
You need to get Come on, Billy, what's up?
Speaker 3 (25:17):
Guys? Justin here?
Speaker 2 (25:18):
Welcome back. Number one moment from this week on The
Billy and Lisa Show. And you know, we cover a
lot of topics on the show and there's always like
a hot one of the week.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
This one was for sure buzzing.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
We're talking about things your significant other does or does
not do in your relationship numero.
Speaker 5 (25:36):
Okay, So first of all, I want to start something.
Topic time is a judgment free zone.
Speaker 6 (25:42):
Topic time is the time for people to express their opinions,
their feelings, what they think, what they believe.
Speaker 5 (25:49):
Nobody gets hurt. It's a judgment for a zone.
Speaker 6 (25:51):
Okay, So, having said that, the topic this morning is
what are you doing?
Speaker 5 (25:56):
What should you be doing? What do you do for
your spouse?
Speaker 3 (26:00):
What do you want?
Speaker 6 (26:00):
You're supposed to do exactly that they don't expect them
to do exactly.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Yeah, you know, I'll start with this.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
You know, a few minutes ago, I was explaining a
little bit of my marriage to my wife Jen, and
I explained how, you know, I wasn't doing anything, you know,
around the house, and she was, you know, stressed out
and backed up, and I really wasn't getting the signal
from her that she needed help with things laundry, dishes
or whatever. And I made the comment that, you know,
(26:28):
when we moved into the house, you know, she would
joke to me and say, listen, you take care of
the outside, the pool, the yard, you know, all that stuff. Yeah,
all to care of the inside. Maybe she was joking
about that, but maybe I took it too seriously.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
And you know, it's kind of an informal agreement.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
A little bit, you know, a little bit, but you
know that annoyed some people, so you know, I understand you.
Speaker 20 (26:48):
Hear Justin say that he's doing it to quote take
things off his wife's plate is infuriating. You bought that
house together, it's a communal plate, and assuming and that
all of the domestic responsibilities are on her clip and
that you are helping her with them is wildly offensive.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Oh sorry to offend you. Now let me respond to that.
You are one hundred percent correct, but you are missing
the point.
Speaker 3 (27:15):
The point is.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Life is about learning and it's about changing, right. And
you know when we had that a year ago to whatever,
we had that big moment, I saw where I went
wrong and I changed those behaviors, and so I try
to help as much as possible.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
I know it's both of us, yes, Lisa, But.
Speaker 7 (27:31):
Like I said before, the takeaway from this is that
if you want a good relationship, you need to be
able to listen to your partner and what they're saying
and try and act on.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
That yes, right, whatever that is.
Speaker 7 (27:46):
And I think that you're a great partner because you
finally had the epiphany you were listening to her.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
I'm learning to become one. I'm becoming a better partner.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Right, and I think that we could all learn from that.
Speaker 2 (27:59):
Yeah, I don't live in nineteen fifty. I wasn't born
in nineteen fifty. I understand that, you know what, we're
just trying to help the people, trying to help the
men out there.
Speaker 17 (28:06):
Yeah, could someone call my husband and have him listen
to this please?
Speaker 5 (28:12):
That was short and sweet, right, that was shortened street.
Let's go to the phone next and talk with Jennifer. Jennifer,
what is your story?
Speaker 8 (28:24):
I think that that lady's list is a little bit ridiculous.
Speaker 13 (28:28):
First of all, she have her sit down and write
a list.
Speaker 8 (28:31):
Yeah, she's thinking way too much about it. Yeah, so
certain things on there, I definitely agree, Like, you know,
individuals should do with themselves, like buying their own clothes
and make their own doctor's appointment. That shouldn't even be
like a part of the list. That just understood. But
separating in the laundry, I've heard we put all of
our laundry in one basket. Yeah, you know, so it's
(28:55):
kind of like.
Speaker 6 (28:59):
Yeah, and again topic time, I mean, nobody's keeping score here,
I think, you know, and I don't think people should
be keeping score at home. And who's doing what you know,
you just coexist.
Speaker 5 (29:08):
It's a it's a it's a relationship. It's not a
business contract.
Speaker 9 (29:12):
I just well, the thing I always say, like I'm
obviously a progressive millennial, Like I'm not, you know, I'm
not stuck in the fifties, right, but like, there are
certain things that if you want to have a more
gender role relationship that was constructed back in our grandparents
days or whatever that is you and like Lisa said,
it's literally what works for your marriage, your relationship. This
se and third, I mean there's now there's saying.
Speaker 5 (29:32):
Sex couples, there's this, there's that.
Speaker 9 (29:34):
It's like just but there are some people that take
on more domesticated roles and some people that take them more.
Like Justin said, the outside stuff, it really is your relationship.
So this lead that's like, so I'm progressive and I'm
not gonna do anything for him, Like okay, well maybe
your husband is cool with doing everything his own way.
Other relationships, it's like, well if I can do the laundry,
and we can when you get home from work and
say you phone your laundry, we can have some quality
(29:55):
time together. That's what I would prefer I would prefer
to your laundry when I'm home doing my laundry, so
that we can have quality time when you get off
of work. So I think it's literally just what you
prefer as a couple.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
Yeah, topic times a place to just be honest.
Speaker 12 (30:09):
I want to do nothing, and I want my boyfriend
to do everything.
Speaker 13 (30:15):
Not simple.
Speaker 12 (30:18):
Me.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
She knows what she wants.
Speaker 5 (30:20):
If that's what she wants.
Speaker 7 (30:22):
And you know what, share it with him and see.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
What he says.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
And you know the audio we played of the woman,
you know, she listed a bunch of things she doesn't do.
She doesn't do the dishes, she doesn't do his laundry,
she doesn't make as lunches. I didn't know people still
did that. You know, wives make their husband lunches. I
feel like that's an old school thing.
Speaker 21 (30:38):
So there are people that actually make their husband's lunch,
buy him underwear, and schedule his doctor's appointments.
Speaker 5 (30:45):
Question mark? Why?
Speaker 21 (30:48):
Question mark? I also have a full time job. In fact,
I make more money than my husband, and nobody does
that for me. Period. We just became empty nesters just
this week. And let me tell you, things around here
are going to change.
