Speaker 1: a little weird and get awkward.
Speaker 4: When was the last time you heard news that actually
Speaker 4: made you happy? Oh?
Speaker 3: Boy? Oh, you say the word news and I get
Speaker 3: to press.
Speaker 2: It does happen?
Speaker 4: And I know for Alexis it was when Claw came
Speaker 4: out with a flavor called Kickball Crunch.
Speaker 2: Is really exciting.
Speaker 4: Taste and find out. For Jose was getting his negative
Speaker 4: test results back. Yeah, that was a big day.
Speaker 3: For Brook.
Speaker 4: She was thrilled when authorities decided to hold off on
Speaker 4: the search warrant. But don't worry, Michael, Someday somebody will
Speaker 4: find you a promise. Well, today, one of our listeners
Speaker 4: is about to get some fantastic news because his wife
Speaker 4: went on a girls trip to Vegas and maybe one
Speaker 4: of the best things ever just happened to her. You're
Speaker 4: gonna find out what it was when we do your
Speaker 4: brand new awkward Tuesday phone call next.
Speaker 2: It's awkward.
Speaker 5: It's Tuesday.
Speaker 3: It's awkward Tuesday phone call.
Speaker 4: When you think of awkward Tuesday, I know a lot
Speaker 4: of us, including our listeners, probably think, uh oh, it's
Speaker 4: cringe time. Yeah, like when Uncle Ivan lost his tooth
Speaker 4: in the chocolate fountain. How do you tell somebody, Hey,
Speaker 4: I think you may have eaten my tooth.
Speaker 3: Yes, it's not a marshmallow floating.
Speaker 1: Yes, why is the tooth floating?
Speaker 4: Cringey for sure, But it doesn't always have to be
Speaker 4: that way on this show. For this segment and today's
Speaker 4: proof because one of our listeners, Jamie wants to share
Speaker 4: some surprising but good news.
Speaker 2: For once, we could be happier to help.
Speaker 4: So, Jamie, you do realize the last three people that
Speaker 4: we had on this segment cried after the show.
Speaker 2: So are you sure you want to do this?
Speaker 5: Yes, yes, I'm sure okay.
Speaker 3: And one of the people crying was me.
Speaker 1: I'm hoping that it's like cry with happy tears. I
Speaker 1: love crying that way. I mean, doesn't she have a surprise.
Speaker 2: Right, Hopefully there's no crying at all. That's what I would.
Speaker 1: Every emotion through tears.
Speaker 4: Okay, not everybody's as emotionally unstable as So let's ask Jamie,
Speaker 4: why did you email us for help today?
Speaker 5: Okay? So the other week, me and five of my
Speaker 5: close girlfriends we had to like get away. Its like
Speaker 5: a four to five day getaway. Fun for you, Yeah,
Speaker 5: thank you. It was awesome. We were in Home Springs
Speaker 5: and while we were there, we decided one day we
Speaker 5: were going to go to Las Vegas.
Speaker 3: Okay, that's my home away from home.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean because like, Palm Springs is fun and
Speaker 1: there's like nightlife, but it's not like Vegas nightlife.
Speaker 5: Yeah. And we're just there for a day and it
Speaker 5: got to be eleven pm, so it's really late, and
Speaker 5: I was like, all right, good night, you know. But
Speaker 5: then my other girl my girlfriends though, were like, let's gamble.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're in Vegas, come, you're going to bed at
Speaker 1: eleven o'clock.
Speaker 3: Yeah, why aren't you on the slot? Why are you sleeping?
Speaker 3: And you get free drinks while you gamble? All right?
Speaker 5: Well I was I, you know, I've never really gambled,
Speaker 5: and I don't know the rules. So I was like,
Speaker 5: let's just go to bed.
Speaker 2: Sorry, don't we don't mean to shame you for your trip.
Speaker 3: One friend in the.
Speaker 1: Group those is right, there's always the one.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not one friend. Yeah.
Speaker 2: But he was convinced to go gambling.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so then I was convinced to go with him. Right,
Speaker 5: And they're playing Blackjack, uh huh yeah, And I was like,
Speaker 5: I do not know this game. So I just sat
Speaker 5: at a slot machine. I just watched and I was
Speaker 5: sitting there for a while, and then all of a sudden,
Speaker 5: this guy I was pretty sure was carrat Top started
Speaker 5: hitting on me.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 6: Okay, if anybody doesn't know, carrat Top's been like performing,
Speaker 6: he's a comedian of prop comic in Vegas for like
Speaker 6: thirty years.
Speaker 1: He's like super muscly now, yeah.
Speaker 3: And they call him because of his red hair.
Speaker 5: Well okay, well it looked a lot like him, but
Speaker 5: it wasn't. I don't think it was him.
Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, I mean it would probably be hard for
Speaker 1: Carrot Top to go anywhere in Vegas. I think that
Speaker 1: it's kind of iconic.
Speaker 3: You would have a team of bodyguards.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, I'm just sad how much we know about Carrots.
Speaker 4: Okay, So some guy that looks like Carrot Tops hitting
Speaker 4: on you by the slots.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and you know I wasn't having it, you know,
Speaker 5: because I have a husband and it's car Top looking
Speaker 5: like guys.
Speaker 1: So I know.
Speaker 5: I moved to a different slot machine, you know, away
Speaker 5: from my girlfriends, and I was bored because they were
Speaker 5: playing forever and so I decided to play the slot machine.
Speaker 1: As one does.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's how they get you.
Speaker 5: And all of a sudden, it started like freaking out,
Speaker 5: like it was like thing bang bomb, you know, like
Speaker 5: freaking going really crazy.
Speaker 4: What can I make those noises again?
Speaker 5: Bang bang?
Speaker 7: Whatever?
Speaker 2: I feel like I'm there. So what did you?
Speaker 1: What did you win?
Speaker 5: I won fifteen thousand dollars?
Speaker 6: Whoa and you we're going to go to bed that night.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Oh, now the party's really odd. Yeah, that's top money.
Speaker 5: That is. I was freaking out in all sorts of ways,
Speaker 5: and I was away from my girlfriends, so they didn't
Speaker 5: even see that I want it. So a lot of
Speaker 5: stuff was going through my mind. Okay. So one, I
Speaker 5: wanted to tell my husband, but it's like way too
Speaker 5: late at this point because it wakes up really early.
Speaker 1: Well, who cares? You just won fifteen grands.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you're right, you know. I guess looking back, I
Speaker 5: probably should have just gone for it. But you know,
Speaker 5: number two, I wanted to like tell my girlfriends right away,
Speaker 5: but they would text their husbands because they don't care,
Speaker 5: and they'd wake them up and tell them, and then
Speaker 5: their husband would tell my husband. Okay, and I didn't
Speaker 5: want to ruin the surprise that way.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you could surprise all of them in the morning
Speaker 6: at the same time.
Speaker 3: That's actually cool.
Speaker 7: I like it the way of thinking, right.
Speaker 5: Yeah. So I was like, Okay, I'm gonna take the
Speaker 5: stub home because yeah, exactly, I think it'd be fun
Speaker 5: to come back down with my husband and catch it.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, and.
Speaker 1: Then you are trusting yourself to hold on to a
Speaker 1: little piece of paper that says you're owed fifteen thousand dollars?
Speaker 1: Are you joking me?
Speaker 5: I never put it down. It was like in my
Speaker 5: hands at all times. I was afraid to do good.
Speaker 4: And so wait, you you haven't told your friends or
Speaker 4: your husband about this yet?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 3: I want wait, is this the awkward part? We're gonna
Speaker 3: call and tell them. You're gonna tell them?
Speaker 5: So I want you guys to help me tell my husband, Nicky, we.
Speaker 3: Are actually gonna make someone dead.
Speaker 4: Yes, it's just a bad time to let you know.
Speaker 4: We do have a fifteen thousand dollars surprise. Okay, now
Speaker 4: this is actually really exciting. We never get to deliver
Speaker 4: news like this.
Speaker 6: Hold on, it's still awkward Tuesday. We're not just gonna
Speaker 6: call and say, hey, buddy, surprise.
Speaker 3: Are we gonna like, we gotta give her some advice?
Speaker 3: How are we going to say?
Speaker 2: That's what our jobs are.
Speaker 3: We're going to play a song.
Speaker 2: We're going to think about what you just said.
Speaker 3: Bad news first, well.
Speaker 4: Thanks to some ideas, hopefully some better ones than that,
Speaker 4: and we'll come back. We'll give you our advice and
Speaker 4: let you make your awkward Tuesday phone call and tell
Speaker 4: your husband you just won fifteen grand and Vegas?
Speaker 7: Thank you?
Speaker 2: All right, hold on, it's awkward.
Speaker 7: It's Tuesday.
Speaker 3: It's awkward, Tuesday.
Speaker 7: Phone call.
Speaker 2: Now, Yes, how.
Speaker 4: Do you surprise your husband with the news that you
Speaker 4: won fifteen grand on a slot machine during a girl's
Speaker 4: trip in Las Vegas?
Speaker 7: Excited?
Speaker 1: Do you want to just do like a trail of
Speaker 1: dollar bills to the bed and sends.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess we want to be weird about it.
Speaker 4: I personally would recommend you hire Carrot Top to do
Speaker 4: it for you, but if you can't afford him, then
Speaker 4: you go with the cheapo. Sure, the much much cheaper option.
Speaker 4: Brook and Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 1: Yea, yeah, you free ninety nine.
Speaker 4: We might not have cool, wacky props or big orange hair,
Speaker 4: but we have a secret weapon.
Speaker 3: What's that, alexis what?
Speaker 2: What's your idea?
Speaker 5: No, I'm the secret weapon.
Speaker 1: That's not good for you.
Speaker 3: I'm sorry.
Speaker 2: What do you think?
Speaker 3: What would I do to surprise someone?
Speaker 2: I would yep, so you get what you pay for
Speaker 2: with and Jeffy and she's.
Speaker 3: Going to spoil a surprise. I probably would have spent
Speaker 3: it all already.
Speaker 2: Is new because I bought it Okay, that's for you, Brook,
Speaker 2: Maybe you have something.
Speaker 1: Well, Okay, I just think you gotta be careful about
Speaker 1: the way you deliver this because you know, if my
Speaker 1: husband came home from a Vegas trip and said, honey,
Speaker 1: I have something to tell you, immediately, my gut sinks
Speaker 1: and I am having like alarm nis going off, Like
Speaker 1: I just think you need to lead with like this
Speaker 1: is good news.
Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll try to remember that. I'm
Speaker 5: really nervous right now.
Speaker 2: Okay, this is great. Tell him it's good news.
Speaker 3: Good.
Speaker 2: Hey, what do you think?
Speaker 3: Mine's a lot more fun?
Speaker 6: You saying when you get on the phone, right, you
Speaker 6: tell him I have a huge surprise.
Speaker 3: But he has to guess with just one hint. That's
Speaker 3: when you start doing the jackpots sound effects.
Speaker 5: Yesses.
Speaker 3: Then you say yes, you're right, we got fairty thousand dollars.
Speaker 4: Yes, and if he gets it wrong, then the marriage
Speaker 4: is over an ultimato, Yeah, there has to be something.
Speaker 2: It's safe that way.
Speaker 1: You did listen to her jackpot sound effects. They don't
Speaker 1: sound like a jackpot at all.
Speaker 3: Well, who said it was going to be easy?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Maybe her husband knows her better than anybody, and understand
Speaker 4: what it means.
Speaker 3: More fun at least, right, at the very least.
Speaker 4: We have a funny sound effect that we can play
Speaker 4: in the middle, So that's going to be our backup plan.
Speaker 2: You feel ready to do.
Speaker 5: This, Jamie, Oh my gosh. Okay, so just smile and
Speaker 5: make their noises. Yeah, okay, we'll see what comes out.
Speaker 4: All right, I'm gonna die your husband's number and you
Speaker 4: can tell them that you're a fifteen thousand air now.
