00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 3: We haven't been together for a few years. Yeah, but

18
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:06,399
Speaker 3: it's been it's been quite a while. It was like

19
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 3: five to six months that we actually dated. The thing

20
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 3: is it was it was good overall. You know, I

21
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 3: was attracted tour just we just didn't really mesh well.

22
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 3: Our conversations were pretty dull or just disconnected.

23
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 1: Okay, you guys just weren't the right fit.

24
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then like towards the end of

25
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 3: that time together, I just started, I mean it was

26
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 3: like sub consciously started listening to a lot of breakup songs.

27
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 3: Then I started having dreams of breaking up with her,

28
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 3: and when I'd wake up, I'd feel really positive and

29
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 3: better about everything.

30
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 1: Like the universe is trying to tell you that something's

31
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: wrong with your relationship.

32
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, important to the story.

33
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: Let's spend five more minutes saying what you didn't like about.

34
00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 3: Look, nothing really was other than just us not meshing. Well,

35
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 3: we didn't cheat, there's no like like we didn't argue

36
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 3: anything like that, but we did. Like the breakup came

37
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,239
Speaker 3: really weird and sudden, but like in a kind of like,

38
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 3: as you said, like the universe telling us. We broke

39
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:16,959
Speaker 3: down in this tunnel and we just were like stuck

40
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,639
Speaker 3: together waiting for a tow truck, and we just had

41
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 3: a conversation was sort of just blunt, and we decided

42
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 3: to be together.

43
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 1: You broke up in a car stuck inside of a tunnel.

44
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:35,239
Speaker 2: Yes, let's pull.

45
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:36,119
Speaker 3: The bandit out here.

46
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 1: Okay, it's cordial. Can you imagine being that tow truck

47
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 1: driver when.

48
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 4: He pulls up?

49
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: So you said that happened, you know, years ago. How

50
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 1: does the drama happen today.

51
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 3: Well, we've remained friends because as friends we work really well.

52
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:53,079
Speaker 1: That's awesome that.

53
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, well yeah, yeah, I'm sort of like I would say,

54
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 3: I'm kind of her shoulder to cry on. And now

55
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,080
Speaker 3: in the dating scene, you know, you're the only.

56
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,399
Speaker 1: Guy who's ever happy with being in the friend zone now, yeah,

57
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:07,639
Speaker 1: because you both want that.

58
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 3: Yeah right, well yeah, it's a good friend zone. But

59
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 3: you know, I can try to pepper up a lot

60
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,359
Speaker 3: of times. She'll go into that space where she's like, oh,

61
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 3: I'm going to die alone, and I'm just like, no,

62
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 3: you're not. Just keep at it. You're great.

63
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,079
Speaker 1: Maybe you should change that advice up and agree with her.

64
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 1: Why do I feel like that's actually what you would do, Jeffrey, Well,

65
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 1: maybe that would motivate her to actually find somebody.

66
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 4: Okay, so where's the awkward part come in in all this?

67
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 4: It all sounds fine?

68
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, Okay, just recently we were out drinking at a

69
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 3: bar and she decided to confide in me that she

70
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 3: finds my best friend Chris attractive.

71
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 1: Oh oh, and you find Chris attractive too? Is awkward?

72
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 4: Okay, I don't understand the issue.

73
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 3: When she told me this, I actually was quite excited

74
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 3: because I think they'd be perfect to get Wait, what

75
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 3: Chris also loves boring installed out conversation? Well, no, I

76
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 3: don't think it would be boring installed out.

77
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 2: With that too, Okay, like they would click?

78
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 3: Yes, I mean one, I mean they're way better together. Okay, Okay,

79
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 3: that's really well. And then two, oh, I would just

80
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 3: like to relieve myself of the burden about hearing her

81
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,239
Speaker 3: dating life anymore.

82
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 4: And my shoulders way.

83
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 1: But you don't think that that would be weird for

84
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 1: you and Chris's relationship to have your ex dating him? Now, Well,

85
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: they all know each other, right they all? But that's

86
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,920
Speaker 1: all I mean, that's so awkward.

87
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 4: If you just friends, it shouldn't be a big deal

88
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:51,840
Speaker 4: years ago that they broke up.

89
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,719
Speaker 3: It would not be awkward for me at all.

90
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:55,719
Speaker 1: Okay.

91
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's Chris that I know. I just know he

92
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 3: has a bro code mind and it's going to be

93
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 3: awkward for him. And that's the awkward thing. Is I

94
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 3: need advice on talking to him and convincing him to

95
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 3: ask her out. Oh, so we're going to call your

96
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,280
Speaker 3: best friend and try to play matchmaker.

97
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 1: Nolet we ask alexis you know, from a lady's perspective,

98
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,840
Speaker 1: if you were the ex girlfriend, how would you feel

99
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 1: if your ex boyfriend was like pushing his best friend

100
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:26,920
Speaker 1: on you. Now, you don't want anyone to be pushed

101
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 1: to want to date you, but gently nudged whatever you

102
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 1: want to say.

103
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 2: You wouldn't know.

104
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 1: She I wouldn't want her to know, Like I wouldn't

105
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 1: want to find out. Oh, you'd wanted to be kept

106
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,039
Speaker 1: a secret, Like there was just a natural connection.

107
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 3: He's just been waiting for me to actually be you know,

108
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:39,159
Speaker 3: he's always wanted to date me.

109
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 1: Okay, secretly I didn't have to be persuaded.

110
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like he's like finally, we didn't have to offer

111
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 4: him a prize at the end of this in order

112
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:47,600
Speaker 4: for him to.

113
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:48,919
Speaker 1: Go out with her. Sure that could be part of

114
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 1: the strategy that maybe we come back with when we

115
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 1: give you advice before we do our awkward Tuesday phone

116
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 1: call to your best friend and try to convince him

117
00:05:58,080 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 1: to date your ex right after.

118
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:00,920
Speaker 2: This, thank you.

119
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 1: Hold on, it's awkward, It's Tuesday, It's awkward Tuesday. We

120
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: do a segment on our show called say Yes to

121
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 1: the x oh Yeah, where we try and convince someone to,

122
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: you know, try things one more time with an old

123
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 1: flame of their see if it goes better the second

124
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 1: time around. Yeah, usually work the time. Yeah, this is

125
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 1: a little twist on that. It's say Yes to your

126
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:32,040
Speaker 1: Friend's x oh, because we're trying to help Michael call

127
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 1: up his best friend and convince him to try dating

128
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 1: Michael's ex girlfriend's right, which is a violation of every

129
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 1: bro code that's out there.

130
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 3: Oh, come on, they only dated for like five or

131
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:44,839
Speaker 3: six months, and that was years ago.

132
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 1: Most people don't gloss over relationships the way that Brooke does.

133
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:53,839
Speaker 1: Cod is really not that strong. Yeah, I wouldn't expect

134
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 1: any women to understand the value of bro code. But

135
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 1: he thinks they would be a great match together. And

136
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 1: he's also tired of hearing his ex complain about how

137
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:04,480
Speaker 1: she's going to die alone to him all the time.

138
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 1: So there's two reasons for doing this. Now. He just

139
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 1: needs a little advice on how to convince his best

140
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: friend to say yes, yeah Brooke without hitting on him.

141
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 1: What advice, no, I can get hit on you listen.

142
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 4: You need to let your best friend know and remember

143
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 4: that you are his best friend.

144
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: You know him better than anyone. Okay, you always have

145
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 1: his best interest in mind, and that's why, although the

146
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 1: idea may be crazy, you got to listen to him.

147
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 2: Does that make sense?

148
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 1: So your advice is just trust him, yes, because it's

149
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 1: it's best friends.

150
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 3: What do you think, Michael, It's not really the detailed

151
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 3: advice that I was hoping to get, But I'm happy

152
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 3: to give him a call and tell him to remind him.

153
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 3: I guess that we're best friend.

154
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,480
Speaker 1: That's good. He may have forgotten. This call may remind

155
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 1: him of your friends best friend. I do trust you, Jose,

156
00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 1: What do you think? There's a lot more to broken?

157
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 1: Then just don't date. My ex and bros do each

158

Speaker 1: Code never exist?

247
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 4: No, seriously, I gotta be honest with you. It was

248
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 4: like a very brief makeout session. We were both buzzed

249
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,679
Speaker 4: you at that point. Also, it said to me, like

250
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 4: you were kind of done with the situation, so that

251
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:15,640
Speaker 4: was another factor, Like, I am very sorry. That is

252
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 4: not who I am.

253
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 1: Well, that's hard to come back from. Uh sounds like though.

254
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 2: It sounds like Chris has a lot of guilt about

255
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,640
Speaker 2: it and knows he made a dumb decision.

256
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,439
Speaker 4: Percent. The reason I didn't even mention it before is

257
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 4: because it was so inconsequential. I cannot emphasize that. Like

258
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 4: I said, it was nothing and it was stupid.

259
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 1: I mean, clearly it wasn't stupid and nothing for your

260
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 1: ex girlfriend because she's still interested. I'm sorry. I'm just

261
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 1: wondering why after three long Island ice teas, why wouldn't

262
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 1: the girlfriend like admit to you, Michael that she's already

263
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,560
Speaker 1: kissed him before at that point. Obviously she's better at

264
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 1: secrets than Chris. Oh yeah, let's I guess you would

265
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 1: have to admit that she cheated. Okay, that makes more sense.

266
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 1: She wants to be friends, you know, she wants to

267
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 1: go out with Chris, Michael. How you doing?

268
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:13,080
Speaker 3: I'm doing all right? I mean I want to I

269
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,560
Speaker 3: want to forgive my best friend, but I need a

270
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 3: favor from you.

271
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 1: But you're still gonna what is it?

272
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 4: What is the favor?

273
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 3: Chris? Can you just can you just agree to take

274
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 3: her on one date?

275
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 1: You still want this?

276
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 4: Whoa wait, I'm so confused. So you still want me

277
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 4: to take her on a date.

278
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,800
Speaker 3: It's the least you could do. I mean you cheated.

00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 3: She cheated, You cheated, both cheated on me with with

280
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 3: each other. Just go on one day.

281
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 1: I meant to kiss it. Do it under like the

282
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 1: proper terms together it makes it better. Cancels out. Yeah,

283
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 1: that's what a best friend would do.

284
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 4: Dude. If I do that and we're still good, it

285
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,320
Speaker 4: would be the only reason that I'm doing it.

286
00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 1: Okay, Michael, He said that he would do it for

287
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:00,960
