1
00:00:01,480 --> 00:00:07,440
Speaker 1: It's awkward. It's Tuesday. It's awkward Tuesday phone call. One

2
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:10,080
Speaker 1: of the great traditions that we have in this country

3
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:14,680
Speaker 1: is going home each November and suffering for hours through

4
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:20,079
Speaker 1: a painfully cringe family conversation about how Uncle Al's goiter

5
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:22,759
Speaker 1: has come back and it's swollen up to half the

6
00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 1: size of the pumpkin pie.

7
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:26,640
Speaker 2: Do I want to know what a goiter.

8
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 3: Is or not?

9
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,600
Speaker 1: I'll probably show you when I get pictures from this Thanksgiving.

10
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 1: But awkward family stuff is the whole point of this holiday. Sadly, though,

11
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 1: one of our listeners wants to spoil that great American

12
00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:44,120
Speaker 1: tradition and settle all of their family problems before dinner. Yes,

13
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:47,840
Speaker 1: it sounds like communists talk to me, so please join

14
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:52,480
Speaker 1: me in booing our listener to the show. You guy,

15
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 1: you get here, don't you do what?

16
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 2: Jeff says Aaron.

17
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: Why would you want to remove all the tasty, tasty,

18
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 1: awkward words from your Thanksgiving?

19
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,120
Speaker 3: I don't even know where to start, Like, so my

20
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 3: current girlfriend is coming to Thanksgiving for the first time.

21
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 2: Oh, you want to remove it because you've got a

22
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:13,680
Speaker 2: new Girlfriend's answer, Jeff, He wants her to think that

23
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 2: he's got a normal family.

24
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 1: Okay, is tricking people? I can get behind that.

25
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 3: Okay, well she just has no idea, like you know

26
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:24,399
Speaker 3: what she's in store for? Okay, what is she in

27
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 3: store for my my ex?

28
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,040
Speaker 2: What did you say? Your ex is coming to your

29
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 2: family's Thanksgiving?

30
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 3: Yes, she has come to the last six or seven Thanksgiving.

31
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 3: She's been invited, like since we broke up by by

32
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:46,120
Speaker 3: your mother. Yeah my mom.

33
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 1: My mom sold one of my exes a car.

34
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 2: All moms do this, Yeah, my mom says, listen, I

35
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 2: created relationships too with this person.

36
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 1: Okay, well, yeah, apparently this is way more normal. How

37
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 1: long were you in your ex girlfriend dating for We did.

38
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 3: It for like six years a week in college? Yeah,

39
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 3: I worked together like through college.

40
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,880
Speaker 2: Has the new girlfriend met your mother outside of Thanksgiving?

41
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 3: No, this would actually be the first time.

42
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 2: Okay, so is it bad?

43
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: I mean obviously you can't simply just say hey, don't

44
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:24,119
Speaker 1: come this year.

45
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 2: I mean I was help the mom would like the

46
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:30,799
Speaker 2: new girlfriend more, but apparently she has challenge for them.

47
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 1: And so the issue is what does your girlfriend know

48
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:37,079
Speaker 1: about your ex yet?

49
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 3: Or no, she knows of my ex. She doesn't know

50
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 3: that she's going to be there and I. I don't

51
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 3: want to have that conversation. I want to be like, hey,

52
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 3: look this person that I was romantically involved with for

53
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 3: several years and thought was the love of my life

54
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,080
Speaker 3: at one point, like we broke up. It was super amicable.

55
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 3: We just realized that, like we just wanted different things

56
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 3: that of life.

57
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: I agree, I don't think you should bring that up.

58
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 1: I think you just arrived and you.

59
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 2: My ex?

60
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 1: What are you doing here? Wait?

61
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 2: Do you talk to your ex still? Do you two

62
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:10,520
Speaker 2: have a relationship?

63
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 3: I mean we don't have like a relationship relationship, but

64
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:19,959
Speaker 3: like she sees my parents honestly more often than I do.

65
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,359
Speaker 1: You guys like still hook up or anything? Like have

66
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 1: you since you broke up?

67
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 2: No comment, because sometimes there's a different in the room,

68
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 2: and who doesn't, Yeah, holk up with your ex at

69
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 2: some point.

70
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:33,839
Speaker 1: I don't think he wants to say.

71
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 2: But it sounds like she's more comes because the family,

72
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 2: the family, Thanksgiving mom.

73
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 1: So Aaron, at this point, you want to call your

74
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 1: current girlfriend and warn her for what's coming.

75
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 2: Really, you don't want to call your ex and convince

76
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 2: her not to come. I feel like that's a much

77
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 2: easier solution if she has no family to go to.

78
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 3: You can't un invite her exactly, because then if I

79
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 3: say don't come, then I have to have a conversation

80
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 3: with my mom. Well why did you tell her not

81
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 3: to come? And it was only awkward because you're making

82
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 3: it awkward.

83
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 1: Mom is the most important woman in your life, your parents,

84
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 1: So AX is going to be there no matter what

85
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 1: is what you're saying, and you just want to tell

86
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 1: the new girlfriend. Yeah, okay, this is going to be

87
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,720
Speaker 1: a difficult conversation. So in order to help you, you're

88
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,280
Speaker 1: probably going to have to give us a little bit

89
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 1: of information about your current girlfriend and like what's her personality? Like, like,

90
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 1: how would you describe her?

91
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 3: I mean, she's great, Like, she's very affectionate, she likes

92
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 3: to have fun. We take a lot of trips together.

93
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,040
Speaker 2: Did she find things funny or.

94
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 3: Sometimes?

95
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 1: I think Okay, that sounds like a no, we're going

96
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 1: to roast her coming up.

97
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 3: Just be gentle us.

98
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 2: You're the one that's going to have to talk to her.

99
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean, like gentle with the advice.

100
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, So you're also.

101
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 1: This is an important question though, is your ex girlfriend

102
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 1: currently single right now? Oh? Joh, we haven't asked that.

103
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:08,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, as far as I know.

104
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 2: That would be so weird. If she was going to

105
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 2: an ex boyfriend's house and she was in a relationship.

106
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:16,359
Speaker 1: Well, maybe she's bringing her new boyfriend. It could be

107
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 1: like a big family offered some time.

108
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 3: She stands up.

109
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 1: God, you announced we're getting here.

110
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 2: We actually.

111
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 3: I think my mom would tell me if that was

112
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 3: going to happen.

113
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 2: Okay, I think it's more important to know if the

114
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 2: ex is hotter than your current girlfriend.

115
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 3: I'm not touching that.

116
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, it'll matter to the current girlfriend. I take guarantee you.

117
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 1: Well, we'll come back with some more solid advice for

118
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 1: you before we let you make your call to your

119
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 1: current girlfriend to warn her. Hey, my ex girlfriend is

120
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 1: going to be at my family Thanksgiving. Oh man, you

121
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 1: just said that wrong. That's together. We're going to do

122
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,839
Speaker 1: it with your awkward Tuesday phone call. Next, it's awkward.

123
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 4: It's Tuesday.

124
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:09,599
Speaker 1: It's awkward Tuesday phone call. I didn't even realize this,

125
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:13,799
Speaker 1: but look at the calendar. We are right around National

126
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,159
Speaker 1: dump Day. What oh my gosh, oh my god.

127
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 2: That happens right before the holidays, so nobody has.

128
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 1: To gift an You got to decide, do I want

129
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: to stick with my current relationship all the way through

130
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: the holidays, or should I cut bait and dump him

131
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:32,159
Speaker 1: now a Lexus style. I'm just saying, good reminder for

132
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 1: everybody who's currently attached. Now is the time to do

133
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:36,480
Speaker 1: it before it's too late.

134
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 2: That is a sad way to start this, Jeff.

135
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,479
Speaker 1: After Christmas when she gets all of her gifts. Yeah,

136
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 1: come on, but look, that's not what our listener, Aaron

137
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 1: wants to do today. His situation is possibly even more

138
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 1: awkward because he needs our help warning his current girlfriend,

139
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 1: whose name we don't even know yet. Aaron, what is that?

140
00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 1: What is her name?

141
00:06:59,000 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 3: Jamie?

142
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 1: Jamie? Okay, we need to warn Jamie that Aaron's ex

143
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 1: is going to be at their family Thanksgiving and she's

144
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 1: gone the last six years, so he wants to tell her,

145
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: don't worry, it's not going to be weird. My family

146
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: just loves her more than they even love me.

147
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 2: I mean, his X does see his parents more than

148
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 2: he does all the time.

149
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 1: So it sounds like an easy conversation in theory, but

150
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 1: in practice might be a little bit more nuanced. So Jose,

151
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 1: what's your advice for him? Before we call his girlfriend?

152
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 4: Just remember this.

153
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 1: It's not your house. You can't do anything except just

154
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 1: blame everything on your mom.

155
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 3: Don't laugh. That's a great way for me to not

156
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 3: come back for Christmas.

157
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 1: Okay, maybe I can a harsh You should focus.

158
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 3: It on your mom.

159
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 1: There are no decisions that you're allowed to make in life,

160
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 1: so your girlfriend, it's good for your girlfriend to know

161
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 1: that upfront. Brooke, what's your advice?

162
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 2: Let her know what mom controls everything. No, I actually

163
00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 2: agree with Jose, but you can't control the narrative here, right,

164
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 2: So you need to make your ex feel like just

165
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 2: a pathetic pity party that everybody like is like, well,

166
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 2: she's got nobody else. I guess she always comes.

167
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 1: To our house.

168
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 2: You know that your family's doing it out of charity

169
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 2: and that everyone feels so bad for her.

170
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 1: Brook has dated a lot of charity cases in her days,

171
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 1: so she knows what she's talking about. So there it is.

172
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: Take maybe take a little bit of the onus off

173
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 1: of yourself. Bad mouth your ex. You'll be good to go.

245
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 1: Jamie, I'm so sorry. We're a radio show. We're called

246
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 1: Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning. Good Morning. We're trying

247
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,839
Speaker 1: to help out your boyfriend Aaron with this awkward conversation

248
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 1: he was supposed to have with you.

249
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 2: We gave my solid advice, honestly, that's what he called for,

250
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 2: and then he went rogue.

251
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:10,319
Speaker 1: I mean we did tell him to bad mouth his

252
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 1: ex girlfriend, that's true.

253
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,080
Speaker 2: We just wanted to know you know that she's not

254
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:14,560
Speaker 2: a threat.

255
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,680
Speaker 1: But it sounds like you're taking it pretty well.

256
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 2: I don't even know if she's upset about the ex.

257
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 4: Aaron, Like, are you serious? Right now? You're deciding to

258
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 4: do this on the radio station in front of everybody.

259
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 3: Oh, I didn't know what else to do. I like

260
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 3: trying to bring this up, and every single person was

261
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 3: just like, just go with her, just roll with it.

262
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 3: I'm like, no, I need to at least like try

263
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,720
Speaker 3: and talk to her about it. And besides, we've talked

264
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 3: about my ex before, like we talked about your ex before.

265
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,319
Speaker 3: It shouldn't be that big of a deal.

266
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, Aaron, you should never lead a tricky conversation with

267
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 2: anyone by telling them it's not that big of a deal.

268
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like, if it's a big deal to them, then

269
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: it's a big deal.

270
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:52,960
Speaker 3: God, why do I feel like I'm already at Thanksgiving

271
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 3: like listening to my mother?

272
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 1: Holy yeah, I didn't feel like a mom in my

273
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 1: arm as I tell you.

274
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 2: All that, right. I mean, the good news is that

275
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 2: Aaron really cares about you.

276
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:06,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's why you talk to us, Because he doesn't

277
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 1: want to blow it.

278
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, and the invitation to his exes out of his control.

279
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 2: That's what he should be telling you.

280
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, well then I'm not even gonna go because I

281
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 4: don't know how you igno.

282
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,560
Speaker 1: Wait no, didn't you hear how pathetic and sad his

283
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 1: exes is so sad? Only the losers bring sweet rolls

284
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 1: to dinner. Yeah, come on, you're gonna look so good

285
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:27,920
Speaker 1: next to her.

286
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,080
Speaker 2: I mean, I will say, his mom is automatically going

287
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:32,839
Speaker 2: to like you if you can go to a dinner

288
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 2: with an ex girlfriend and be secure in yourself. Yes,

289
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying.

290
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:38,960
Speaker 4: So what is this like? You want me to come

291
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 4: to Thanksgiving to rub it in your ex girlfriend's face?

292
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 4: So this is about your ex girlfriend? No, no, I

293
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 4: don't want to.

294
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 3: I don't want to like rub it in her face.

295
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:48,839
Speaker 3: But you know, like in a year or two you

296
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:50,679
Speaker 3: could even like get proposed and farm her and that

297
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,440
Speaker 3: would really like, Oh, oh.

298
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 4: Do you think that I want to get engaged in

299
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:57,079
Speaker 4: front of your ex girlfriend? Let him?

300
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,719
Speaker 2: You'll want to, Yeah, that is the appropriate you'll want

301
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 2: to rub it in your face too.

302
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: But if we're running short on time, here, the whole

303
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 1: point of this conversation was supposed to let you know

304
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:13,320
Speaker 1: that he does not care about his ex being there.

305
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 1: It's his family's decision to have them over. He just

306
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 1: wants you to be there and for you to feel comfortable,

307
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 1: and you know she's going to be there.

308
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 2: Really struggle saying that themself.

309
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,240
Speaker 4: Yes, well, I'm not going to be comfortable and I'm

310
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 4: not going yet. As a matter of fact, the only

311
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 4: way we're gonna send Giving together is if you come

312
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 4: to my parents' place.

313
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 1: Do you have an ex boyfriend over for Thanksgiving too?

314
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 3: No?

315
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 4: And you know what, if that's not the case, then

316
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:43,240
