Speaker 5: is a good one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm We're here for it. We're here for it.
Speaker 1: Enjoy the brand new episode. It starts right now.
Speaker 4: If I had to guess, I would say ninety nine
Speaker 4: point nine percent of boyfriends, yeah, would never ask their
Speaker 4: girlfriends to do this. Oh whoa, And don't worry, it's
Speaker 4: nothing gross. It's just a really dumb question to bring
Speaker 4: up in any relationship. So dumb, okay, but one of
Speaker 4: our listeners tried it and I almost yelled out dead
Speaker 4: man walking during the call.
Speaker 1: Well that's awkward.
Speaker 4: Oh well yeah, I probably should have its appropriately, knowing
Speaker 4: how it turned out in the end. But you will
Speaker 4: not leave the question that this guy actually floats to
Speaker 4: his girlfriend coming up in your brand new awkward Tuesday
Speaker 4: phone call. Next, it's awkward.
Speaker 1: It's Tuesday.
Speaker 3: It's awkward Tuesday phone call.
Speaker 4: When you talk about the big milestone moments in any relationship,
Speaker 4: there's obviously the first kiss. Okay, the first time saying.
Speaker 3: I love you.
Speaker 1: Ah, that's such a sweet moment.
Speaker 4: The first time saying I love you sober. Oh, those
Speaker 4: are different. That's very important. And apparently one of our listeners, Stephen,
Speaker 4: is approaching a major milestone for his relationship and he
Speaker 4: wants he wants our help with it. Stephen, welcome to
Speaker 4: the show. I'm assuming you need advice on how to
Speaker 4: get into her parents' inheritance, because I know that's a
Speaker 4: really big one.
Speaker 1: Why did I think you were gonna say pants.
Speaker 4: Or maybe both?
Speaker 6: I mean, you know, hey, make mine a double that's
Speaker 6: what I always say.
Speaker 4: Oh, I don't know what that movies at the same time, sure,
Speaker 4: right family pants? Okay, I'm assuming that you're joking with us,
Speaker 4: and I like that, but yeah, totally tell us what
Speaker 4: the real situation. What's going on with you and your girlfriend?
Speaker 3: All right? So, not a problem. And here's the thing, Wait,
Speaker 3: what problem?
Speaker 4: Maybe your phone cut out? We missed some of what
Speaker 4: you said.
Speaker 2: You just said, not a problem, not a problem.
Speaker 4: So okay, so we've heard correctly. Okay, can you start
Speaker 4: with the problem? Tell us about your girlfriend?
Speaker 6: Well, I mean, I'm going I'll tell you what's going on,
Speaker 6: and like, let's get it.
Speaker 3: You know, I get it. Smart people will understand. But
Speaker 3: then I've got it.
Speaker 4: Okay, yes, Steve, what's happening? I need you to put
Speaker 4: the cap back on the bottle of what of jamison
Speaker 4: or whatever it is.
Speaker 1: We need to be more specific.
Speaker 4: I want to know you have a girlfriend, yes, yeah, friend, Tracy.
Speaker 2: Tracy, Tracy, And how long have you been dating?
Speaker 3: By two years?
Speaker 6: Okay, So I moved in with her about a year ago.
Speaker 6: She has an apartment. I moved in with her. We
Speaker 6: were trying to save money at the time. Romantic but yeah, yeah,
Speaker 6: but we got some things came up though, because I've
Speaker 6: got a buddy of mine, actually got.
Speaker 3: A group of buddies. But my one buddy needs needs
Speaker 3: some help.
Speaker 6: And uh he's good dude, Sebastian, and he is fresh
Speaker 6: out of prison, not going to sugar coat it.
Speaker 1: Okay. Does Tracy know Sebastian? She never met him before
Speaker 1: susan prison.
Speaker 3: I grew up with these guys, right, there's four of us.
Speaker 6: We used to call ourselves the nerf Knight.
Speaker 1: Oh that's kind of cute.
Speaker 4: Yeah, because he got in like nerve battles with each
Speaker 4: other we were young, and usually what people tell me
Speaker 4: about their childhood friends, I'm assuming it was during your youth.
Speaker 2: I think the whole point of what he's saying is
Speaker 2: that he's very bonded to Sebastian. Sebastian just out of prison,
Speaker 2: you're wanting to help him out core friend groups. I
Speaker 2: also have childhood friends that are in and out of prison.
Speaker 4: Okay, perfect, you came to the right place, Steven, So
Speaker 4: keep going. What's going on with you and your Nerf
Speaker 4: Night friends?
Speaker 6: So the other night, I'm playing call of duty with him, right,
Speaker 6: the four of us, and we came up with this
Speaker 6: idea that if the four of us, if we all
Speaker 6: live together, that would help out Sebastian, you know, get
Speaker 6: back on his feet, and the four of us we
Speaker 6: could all save money too. And then after a year,
Speaker 6: well then I could move back in with Tracy.
Speaker 2: Oh wait, wait, so you you want to tell your
Speaker 2: girlfriend that you're moving out of the house with her
Speaker 2: and moving in with your three best.
Speaker 4: Bros, the Nerf Night's Brook Sorry, yes, yes, temporarily.
Speaker 2: Why can't of the other Nerf Knights just do it
Speaker 2: without you?
Speaker 6: Do you think I want to miss that epic party?
Speaker 3: Are you nuts if you.
Speaker 1: Still pay your half of the rent to your girlfriend
Speaker 1: or she'd be left to move out.
Speaker 5: That's a good question.
Speaker 6: Well, hold down one second here because it was her
Speaker 6: apartment first. Okay, she was already paying that like on
Speaker 6: her own. But you got to understand, this is something
Speaker 6: the four of us have always wanted to do, and
Speaker 6: when we were young, we made a commitment to the
Speaker 6: group that it was group first to second.
Speaker 7: When that.
Speaker 4: Eight year old say that to each other, but yeah.
Speaker 1: I'm busy. They were maybe thirteen or fourteen when they
Speaker 1: went that round.
Speaker 5: Whatever it is is smarter than all you and sharing itself.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a sweet sentiment, but also from the girlfriend's perspective,
Speaker 2: like it feels like you're going back in the maturity level,
Speaker 2: you know, like you're like her boyfriend's moving into a
Speaker 2: frat house.
Speaker 1: That isn't sanctioned.
Speaker 6: Well, let me ask you a question, because if you
Speaker 6: ever have had regrets in life, because let me tell you,
Speaker 6: this is like a bucket list.
Speaker 3: It's like a bros bucket list.
Speaker 1: I don't you know, I say nerf nights forever, yes, always.
Speaker 6: Right, all for one and four for all.
Speaker 3: That was our saying.
Speaker 4: You guys had a lot of saying yeah, So let's
Speaker 4: cut to why did you reach out to us for help?
Speaker 4: What are you looking to do here with your awkward
Speaker 4: Tuesday call?
Speaker 3: I need you, guys to explain it to Tracy. She's
Speaker 3: not going to be happy.
Speaker 4: Oh I can't imagine why. It's not like you're asking
Speaker 4: your girlfriend to break up for a year. You want
Speaker 4: to stay together and still do Yeah.
Speaker 6: I can come over, do laundry, she can make dinner.
Speaker 3: We can have like a nice house.
Speaker 4: No, definitely, definitely put it to her that way.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there might be part of your girlfriend that's stoked
Speaker 2: on this side.
Speaker 1: I would move out and still pay rent.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't say I was going to pay the rent,
Speaker 3: you know, and they like pay a little bit or something,
Speaker 3: you know.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean at that point is her apartment, she
Speaker 4: should have some responsibility.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 4: You clearly are very very adamant about doing this with
Speaker 4: your your buddies the nerf nights. Okay, you need our
Speaker 4: advice on how do you convince your girlfriend that it's
Speaker 4: not taking a step backwards in your relationship to move
Speaker 4: in with your bros for just a year and then
Speaker 4: move back.
Speaker 1: It's a good idea. Jeff, Yes, it'll be great for everybody.
Speaker 4: I'm glad that we all agree that's the case. But
Speaker 4: how do we get his girlfriend to believe it too.
Speaker 4: That's going to be our challenge when we come back
Speaker 4: with some solid advice and let you make your awkward
Speaker 4: Tuesday phone call coming up right after this.
Speaker 3: It's awkward.
Speaker 1: It's Tuesday.
Speaker 3: It's awkward Tuesday phone call.
Speaker 4: I want you to picture four young boys. Okay, I
Speaker 4: don't like the way. Yeah, I don't like how it
Speaker 4: started either. I probably shouldn't put it like that. Okay,
Speaker 4: no picture for a fully grown men who still act
Speaker 4: like four young boys. Most men, they all live together
Speaker 4: like the nerf nights of the round table, where nobody
Speaker 4: does the dishes and there's been a piece of cake
Speaker 4: on the floor for the past thirty days and everybody
Speaker 4: just walks around it.
Speaker 1: WHOA, Why do I just picture mattresses on the floor.
Speaker 4: Yes, you're all seeing the exact dream that our listener,
Speaker 4: Steven has to live with his three childhood buddies and
Speaker 4: the one obstacle in his way, an angry, fire breathing
Speaker 4: girlfriend currently lives with and today he wants to break
Speaker 4: the news that he wants to do this and live
Speaker 4: with these guys for an entire year and then move
Speaker 4: back in with his girlfriend again. That doesn't sound too
Speaker 4: hard to do, right, Yeah, I think.
Speaker 6: We got this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she knows who she's dating.
Speaker 1: You know, they shouldn't be shocking.
Speaker 7: That's good.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I would say so, Okay, Okay.
Speaker 4: All he's looking for is a little bit of advice
Speaker 4: so that his girlfriend is excited about this idea and
Speaker 4: doesn't think they're taking a step backwards in their relationship. So, Brooke,
Speaker 4: what do you have to say to Stephen here?
Speaker 1: I'm going with the night theme. Stephen. I'm gonna make
Speaker 1: you the night in shining armor.
Speaker 3: Okay, thank you.
Speaker 2: You're gonna tell her, honey, I hate the way we
Speaker 2: moved in together because of finances.
Speaker 1: That was not romantic. It was not how I wanted
Speaker 1: to do it.
Speaker 2: I'm going to move out so that we can do
Speaker 2: it the right way and this will lead us to
Speaker 2: marriage more quickly.
Speaker 4: I don't know that gave a little lukewarm on your advice.
Speaker 5: If she's like any girlfriend in history, there's gonna be
Speaker 5: times where she needs space.
Speaker 4: And you're giving it to her.
Speaker 1: Oh lots of it.
Speaker 5: But if she wants to hang. You're on speed dial,
Speaker 5: so she's in control now right. If she needs space,
Speaker 5: she already has it. She wants to see you drop
Speaker 5: of a dime. She can be right there.
Speaker 1: Can we promise that?
Speaker 3: See?
Speaker 6: I kind of I kind of like this is I'm
Speaker 6: being proactive here. I'm giving her the space before as.
Speaker 4: You're not doing this for yourself, you're doing it for her.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I don't want to know that, I really mutual play
Speaker 2: swords with his friends and not answering her back, and.
Speaker 4: Because she wouldn't want to see that. I'm feeling pretty
Speaker 4: confident about this. I don't know about you, Steven.
Speaker 2: Yeah, just don't bring up the fact that she would
Speaker 2: ever have to go over and stay there.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, don't mention the.
Speaker 1: Cooking, dinner, the laundry.
Speaker 3: Yeah, check and check.
Speaker 4: Got it all right, We're ready to do this. I'm
Speaker 4: gonna dial your girlfriend, Tracy, and then we'll step away
Speaker 4: and let you make your call. Good luck, man.
Speaker 3: Here we go.
Speaker 6: Hello, Hey babe, what's going on over there?
Speaker 7: Hey?
Speaker 3: What where?
Speaker 7: What number are you calling from?
Speaker 3: Where?
Speaker 6: I mean, it's a work number thing I got going on.
Speaker 3: So it's a little weird.
Speaker 7: Everything everything and yeah.
Speaker 6: No, I'm taking a break, taking a break, thought i'd
Speaker 6: reach out to you.
Speaker 3: See what's how your day is going.
Speaker 7: That's that's nice. Yeah, everything's good.
Speaker 6: Quiet, Okay, So, uh with this weekend, we still are
Speaker 6: we going to your mom's house for dinner?
Speaker 3: We can pick up and bring it there. You know,
Speaker 3: that's where that's never a problem, you.
Speaker 7: Know, Yeah, no, she wants to she wants to make
Speaker 7: a dinner, which is really sweet. So so yeah, as
Speaker 7: long as that's still good with you.
Speaker 6: And yeah, yeah, yeah, that's that's fun.
Speaker 3: That's fun. You know that sounds good.
Speaker 6: So uh so listen, I just I had a great opportunity.
Speaker 3: Come my way, and I wanted to call it. Yeah.
Speaker 7: Wait, like, are you getting promoted?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 6: Actually, it's actually it's actually kind of better.
Speaker 3: It's actually kind of better than that.
Speaker 7: Oh wait, are you going to leave your job and
Speaker 7: go work for my dad?
Speaker 3: Oh no, no, okays is better. This is better. This
Speaker 3: is better than both of those ideas combined.
Speaker 7: Can you can you stop making me guess? I'm not
Speaker 7: very good at these games.
Speaker 6: I'll give you three hints, then three hints ready, okay, Sebastian,
Speaker 6: Derek and Randy.
Speaker 7: Wait, I don't understand. What is the opportunity.
Speaker 6: Okay, well, so since you've brought it up. You know,
Speaker 6: Sebastian it's trying to get back on his feet. And
Speaker 6: and Randy, well he just got a job, you know,
Speaker 6: he's doing bar back in downtown near the city. Actually, okay,
Speaker 6: we were all playing call of duty last night. I
Speaker 6: was amped up and they're all like, hey, bro, before
Speaker 6: you get married married, should all live together one time
Speaker 6: as adults?
Speaker 7: Wait? Are we getting married?
Speaker 3: You know that's sure.
Speaker 6: I mean that's always a possibility, But you're missing the point.
Speaker 6: The main point here is the Nerf Knights. Hello, this
Speaker 6: is our one chance we could live together, one tribe,
Speaker 6: one roof for a year and then move back.
Speaker 7: Wait, I'm sorry, you want to go live with your
Speaker 7: childhood friends, including one that's been in prison. Are you serious, babe?
Speaker 6: It's our one chance to get the Nerf Knight back together.
Speaker 6: W What?
Speaker 7: I don't know?
Speaker 1: I'm on board?
Speaker 7: What what is going Who is this? What is going on?
Speaker 1: We're kind of like the Nerf Knights. There's four of us.
Speaker 4: Yes, sound on board? Though, Hey, Tracy is a frank. No,
Speaker 4: it's not a prank, but you are on a radio
Speaker 4: show called Brook and Jeffrey in the morning in the
Speaker 4: middle of an awkward Tuesday phone call.
Speaker 7: Oh my god, that's for sure?
Speaker 4: Are we're not kidding you? Because Steven is a listener
Speaker 4: and he asked for our help reaching out to you
Speaker 4: because he did have this interesting proposition. He wanted to
Speaker 4: bring your way, and he was scared that you might
Speaker 4: not take it the right way.
Speaker 7: Really, what would be the right way?
Speaker 2: I think the right way would be you being like, yeah,
Speaker 2: that's awesome, that's a great idea.
Speaker 1: Steven move in with the nerf Knights.
Speaker 7: If I wanted to break up with him?
Speaker 3: Sure, ohoa, whoa?
Speaker 1: I thank Tracy.
Speaker 2: You just need to understand only twelve months If you
Speaker 2: two are truly meant to be together forever, what's twelve
Speaker 2: months in a forever timeline? Rights?
Speaker 5: Like, anyway would you be able to move into No?
Speaker 1: No, no, we don't want her.
Speaker 4: There wasn't the original plan.
Speaker 1: I don't think she wants to move in with me.
Speaker 7: We've been living together for a year. It's like, if
Speaker 7: you haven't figured out at this point that I'm the
Speaker 7: person for you and that you want to be living
Speaker 7: with me, and I don't know what we're doing.
Speaker 6: Listen, babe, I know that you never hung out with
Speaker 6: them extensively before, but the really good guys and Derek
Speaker 6: is he's actually funnier than me.
Speaker 3: You would write him.
Speaker 1: That he's actually pretty funny.
Speaker 4: Step not on purpose.
Speaker 7: Look, if they get their own place, fine, I'll let
Speaker 7: you go visit them. I don't know, once a month,
Speaker 7: like you visited Sebastian in prison.
Speaker 2: Who Yeah, that's a good friend that goes to visit
Speaker 2: every month though, because prisons are never in a convenient location,
Speaker 2: that's always tough.
Speaker 3: He was a model prisoner.
Speaker 6: Okay, all right, second.
Speaker 2: The ball.
Speaker 3: Night, I understand.
Speaker 7: Can we please just discuss it later. I didn't like
Speaker 7: at home.
Speaker 4: That's weird. Which home or the Castle of the earth Knights. Okay,
Speaker 4: we need we don't need to be a part of
Speaker 4: this conversation this entire time. But Sebastian or but not
Speaker 4: Sebastian Stephen. Stephen just wanted our help because this is
Speaker 4: something that him and his friends have always dreamed of doing.
Speaker 4: They're almost like into full adulthood now, and this might
Speaker 4: be the last opportunity to get to live here.
Speaker 1: Tracy, Can I just talk to you for a second,
Speaker 1: it could be your last opportunity if you end up
Speaker 1: getting married, just have some peace and quiet by yourself,
Speaker 1: like a year. I'm just saying this is not that
Speaker 1: bad for you.
Speaker 7: I mean, it gives me the opportunity, I don't know,
Speaker 7: need somebody else, maybe while I'm hanging around waiting for
Speaker 7: him to come back.
Speaker 1: WHOA, come on, Tracy, you know I don't.
Speaker 7: Think you want to give somebody that much space.
Speaker 6: What he is a reason he wants to leave, you
Speaker 6: know how women are.
Speaker 3: I knew this was going to blow up.
Speaker 4: Okay, you know what, I feel like we've made a
Speaker 4: lot of progress in this phone call. I don't know
Speaker 4: if it's backward progress or forward progress, but at least
Speaker 4: the idea is out there.
Speaker 2: And that's what this couple was supposed to happen exactly.
Speaker 4: So why don't you to take the conversation back home
Speaker 4: off the air and you can discuss whether or not
Speaker 4: you really want to do this, but either way we
Speaker 4: support it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's in the NERF Knight's live stream because
Speaker 2: I'm sure there'll be one.
Speaker 6: Oh my god, why didn't I think about that? That's
Speaker 6: a great idea.
Speaker 4: Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. I think Brooks said
Speaker 4: it best. Whatever happens next with this couple is probably
Speaker 4: what was meant to happen. If you stay together, that's life.
Speaker 4: And if you bring probably I just have a feeling
Speaker 4: down the road, we're probably going to be doing an
Speaker 4: awkward Thursday call with just Stephen where he's not living
Speaker 4: with his girlfriend anymore, or with the Nerf Knights because
Speaker 4: they've all been arrested.
Speaker 1: I thought laser stories about the NERF Knights for sure.
Speaker 4: The might be in there escapes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I not for Sebastian, he's got to be on parole.
Speaker 4: Yeah, behavior yeah, yeah, I know. Either way, I can't
Speaker 4: wait to hear from Stephen directly, or maybe watch the
Speaker 4: Netflix crime documentary about the downfall of the NERF Knights.
Speaker 4: Either way really good. I know, probably like a six
Speaker 4: part episode.
Speaker 5: Yeah, in the documentary.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, we would use our audio. We might even
Speaker 4: win some like Emmy for it. No, you don't want
Speaker 4: to be a part of a bad thing. Okay, we're
Speaker 4: not hoping for that. I'm just just to be clear.
Speaker 4: We're just speculating. Sure, but you know, if you have
Speaker 4: hit subscribe to our podcast, nothing bad can happen then.
Speaker 3: Now, ever,
