Speaker 1: All right, you're in for a special one today. It's
Speaker 1: a brand new episode here on Britain. Jeffrey second day
Speaker 1: of day Dan, Oh yeah, we do not do these
Speaker 1: very often, thank the Lord. But it's happening today.
Speaker 2: Brook breaks you up. Yes, I oh.
Speaker 1: God, you just wish you had my services earlier in
Speaker 1: your twenty thank Yeah. Okay, before we get to it, comments.
Speaker 3: Yes, Brian Alvarez said, your favorite state of Florida.
Speaker 4: Here.
Speaker 2: I'm on my third trip around the Brook and Jeffrey universe.
Speaker 3: I start at the latest episode available and play you
Speaker 3: guys constantly in the background of my life until I
Speaker 3: get to the end.
Speaker 2: Then I start again, he says, my third time started day.
Speaker 2: It is crazy.
Speaker 4: I wonder how many new ones he hears by the
Speaker 4: time it gets to the end of the restart, right,
Speaker 4: and how long it takes, gets like ten new second
Speaker 4: dates and it starts over.
Speaker 1: I hope that takes months.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I want to know the mental state from when
Speaker 3: you started when you finish now physical Yeah, you.
Speaker 4: Keep doing it, so something's happening.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, well wow, that is incredible.
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for being here, and really truly
Speaker 1: thank you for all that support.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Your brand new episode starts right now.
Speaker 4: How do you deliver bad news to someone that you
Speaker 4: really care about? Man gently? I guess if you're a Lexis,
Speaker 4: you shrink down, apologize profusely, Yeah, and then run away
Speaker 4: before they ever make eye contact with you. Exactly, Yeah,
Speaker 4: if you can get it out. But you know what,
Speaker 4: that strategy isn't going to work today, because what we
Speaker 4: need is a fearless, fire breathing monster with a delicate
Speaker 4: feminine touch and glasses so big she can see the
Speaker 4: reflection of your soul in them before she sucks it
Speaker 4: out of your body and last directly in your face.
Speaker 4: So well, John, maybe over selling it just a little bit,
Speaker 4: but this is a second that could go down as
Speaker 4: this year's most explosive confrontation that will have all year long.
Speaker 4: It's a brand new edition of Brook Breaks You Up.
Speaker 2: I enjoy this.
Speaker 4: I don't fear the monster coming up right after this? Hey, Brook,
Speaker 4: can you break us up?
Speaker 1: For sure?
Speaker 4: It breaks you up? Welcome back, So Brook breaks you up.
Speaker 1: I didn't think this segment could get more cringey for me.
Speaker 2: It comes out of the intro.
Speaker 4: It's awesome, Joe, I know, Brook, you said sure so excitedly,
Speaker 4: at the thought of breaking somebody up.
Speaker 2: Prepared for a breakup today, Jeff.
Speaker 4: Well, one of our listeners is Because if you haven't
Speaker 4: heard this segment before, one of our listeners identifies the
Speaker 4: harshest person on our show, Brook Fox, and asks her
Speaker 4: to do their dirty work for them.
Speaker 1: I do think that you shouldn't stay with someone if
Speaker 1: you're not into the relationship anymore. I've watched too many
Speaker 1: friends stay in longtime relationships that we're a waste of
Speaker 1: their time.
Speaker 4: Okay, don't cite your therapist here. Brook. The Brook is
Speaker 4: the perfect person for this because she has broken up
Speaker 4: with hundreds of dudes over the years for totally selfish
Speaker 4: reasons and feels no remorse about it whatsoever.
Speaker 2: I don't actually yeah, so Brook.
Speaker 1: On the other side, I've also been dumped many, many,
Speaker 1: many times.
Speaker 4: Yes, she knows how it feels, and she knows exactly
Speaker 4: what to say. So, Brook, are you ready to help
Speaker 4: one of our listeners blindside his significant other and break
Speaker 4: off their relationship.
Speaker 2: She's not gonna see it coming, because a.
Speaker 4: Guy named Jack has emailed our show saying he wants
Speaker 4: to break up with his sweet, lovely girlfriend Melanie, who's
Speaker 4: a hospice nurse and rescues kittens in her free times
Speaker 4: Angel cry.
Speaker 2: Please tell me that part isn't true.
Speaker 4: If I don't know if any of what I said
Speaker 4: is actually true, it's just blind guess. But we will
Speaker 4: find out when we speak to Jack directly. Jack, was
Speaker 4: any of my guesses about your girlfriend right?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 5: Not at all.
Speaker 4: I didn't even get the name right. What's there soon
Speaker 4: to be ex girlfriend's name?
Speaker 3: Her name is Megan? Megan?
Speaker 2: Okay, why can't you do this yourself?
Speaker 4: Jack?
Speaker 1: Maybe we don't know.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's so be easy.
Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe maybe you're gonna not like her broke.
Speaker 1: I liked every Megan I've ever met.
Speaker 4: Maybe that'll change. Here, tell us the story of you
Speaker 4: and Meghan and why it's not meant to be.
Speaker 5: Yeah. Well, I actually have tried several times to break
Speaker 5: it off myself, and I've been meaning to call this
Speaker 5: show for a minute because Brooke, I mean, it's just
Speaker 5: you're so good at it.
Speaker 2: Okay, let's not, I hear you.
Speaker 1: Okay, listen, you've tried many times, as in you've chickened
Speaker 1: out at the last second, or she is just refusing
Speaker 1: to leave as your girlfriend.
Speaker 5: I guess a little of both, more so the last one,
Speaker 5: because I mean I hadn't said the words out loud,
Speaker 5: but I think she has like a little spidy sensors
Speaker 5: and can see it coming and then change the subject
Speaker 5: or like we'll go do something like that. She knows
Speaker 5: I like, and it's really fine, and so she's never
Speaker 5: the right time.
Speaker 4: Well, good news is you don't have to talk. Brooke
Speaker 4: gets to do all that for you. But maybe we
Speaker 4: need to give her a little bit of ammunition, like
Speaker 4: what do you think cause the downfl Like what's the
Speaker 4: reason for the breakup? What caused the downfall of your relationship?
Speaker 5: So I thought that opposite the tract and at the
Speaker 5: beginning of the relationship, and you know, I'm more laid back,
Speaker 5: and she's like really intense.
Speaker 4: Oh God, in person, you don't have to you get
Speaker 4: to this is an honor that you get to have.
Speaker 1: And so how is that affecting your relationship negatively?
Speaker 5: She's just a little scary and the thought of being
Speaker 5: with her is a little even more scary than not.
Speaker 1: So how long have you been together, Jack, you and.
Speaker 5: Her for a couple months? Oh?
Speaker 1: Not that long?
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, I could break that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well I should be clear. We've been officially boyfriend
Speaker 5: and girlfriend for a few months, but we've been dating
Speaker 5: on an offer the last like year.
Speaker 1: Okay, it's been rocky from the start if it was
Speaker 1: on and off. I don't know if this is pertinent
Speaker 1: to anyone else, but I need to know what I'm
Speaker 1: working with here.
Speaker 2: Do you guys use the I love you?
Speaker 4: Yeah? Ah, but okay, you use it, but you don't
Speaker 4: like mean it wholeheard.
Speaker 5: It's kind of like an obligation.
Speaker 4: I see. So how long do you want to keep
Speaker 4: the act going? You can't keep it going forever. And
Speaker 4: you said that You've tried to broach this conversation with
Speaker 4: Megan before and it just you you just can't get
Speaker 4: it out.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 5: And at the beginning of the relationship with the intensity factor,
Speaker 5: intimacy in the bedroom was great, but now it's just
Speaker 5: like nothing, like just dead. And it's really weird because like,
Speaker 5: I've tried everything. I even tried talking to her during foreplay,
Speaker 5: which I never do.
Speaker 3: I never do.
Speaker 4: All of these details when this is making you want
Speaker 4: to break them up more, isn't it, Brooke?
Speaker 2: I mean, it sounds like she's not satisfied either. Yeah,
Speaker 2: why would she want.
Speaker 1: To be in this relation.
Speaker 2: You can do a separate segment or Brook gives advice
Speaker 2: on that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, Jeff, there's a chance that Brooke does this
Speaker 4: and your girlfriend actually cheers in happiness when Brook says it.
Speaker 5: So I don't think she's going to do that. I'm
Speaker 5: just going to tell you that right now. She can
Speaker 5: be really harsh and super blunt.
Speaker 4: Some people also just like need to be in a relationship. Yeah,
Speaker 4: Like even if she's not happy, she has someone.
Speaker 1: Maybe she's a bine swinger, you know, like you don't
Speaker 1: let go of one relationship before you get another in
Speaker 1: your hand.
Speaker 2: Jose are you willing to go out with her?
Speaker 1: Just so I can?
Speaker 4: Can you take them straight?
Speaker 5: Bull?
Speaker 4: Sorry? Okay, all right, Alexis, you're gonna have to tap
Speaker 4: in for Jose way more interesting.
Speaker 2: I can be a rebound.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 4: We've got a backup plan for your girlfriend to fall
Speaker 4: on once Brooke come back and breaks you up with
Speaker 4: your on and off again year long girlfriend Megan.
Speaker 2: Who's really intense and scary.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think I got this. Like I'm feeling
Speaker 1: better than I was at the beginning of the car all.
Speaker 4: Right, you're feeling good about this Jack, I think Brooke
Speaker 4: is the perfect person do this because I obviously have issues.
Speaker 5: With saying what I need to say, and so Brooke
Speaker 5: is like a battle axe, and she's gonna just kill it.
Speaker 2: Alright, never heard battle axe?
Speaker 1: Who this is a compliment.
Speaker 4: Well, we're gonna dork. We're gonna have our best brave
Speaker 4: heart cry before we charge in and break up. This
Speaker 4: relationship with Brooke breaks you up? Right after this? Hey, Brook?
Speaker 4: Can you break us up? Sure? Look breaks you up?
Speaker 1: How many know this show?
Speaker 4: Welcome to the battle that everyone on the text board
Speaker 4: is looking forward to where Brooke is going to break
Speaker 4: up a couple. Because our listener Jack, who's kind of
Speaker 4: a laid back guy, spoke to him a little. He
Speaker 4: told us his on and off again girlfriend of the
Speaker 4: past year can be a little blunt, a little intense,
Speaker 4: and very tough to deal with one on one. So
Speaker 4: he thinks Brook is the perfect person for this job
Speaker 4: to step in and end things once and for all
Speaker 4: on his behalf.
Speaker 1: We haven't done this in a long time. I forget
Speaker 1: do I call Jack back in after I talked to her?
Speaker 4: Or is why do you sound so scared? Brook? Yes,
Speaker 4: I'll be so terrified. Don't worry about the logistics of it, Jack. Yeah,
Speaker 4: it'll happen naturally. You've done this a thousand times. But
Speaker 4: Jack has tried to do it himself on several occasions.
Speaker 4: It just never seems to go well. That's why he's
Speaker 4: calling in the battle axe Brooke Fox herself to charge
Speaker 4: him and deliver that fatal blow.
Speaker 1: I could just be a reasonable person with some logic
Speaker 1: into her relationships.
Speaker 4: That's what Jack is asking for. He wants a hammer
Speaker 4: brought down. Yeah, old weapon.
Speaker 1: But you okay, Jack, I think you need to understand
Speaker 1: when I have this conversation with her, I'm gonna have
Speaker 1: to say some like reasons why she shouldn't even want
Speaker 1: to be with you.
Speaker 4: That's good.
Speaker 2: I just don't want you to take that personally smart Jack.
Speaker 4: Is there anything bad about yourself that Brook can throw
Speaker 4: out there?
Speaker 2: We heard it the first half. I do have some notes.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think I'm good on that party. I just
Speaker 5: don't want her to be mad at me, like she's
Speaker 5: gonna be pissed.
Speaker 1: Yep, that's fine. Why do you care You're not gonna
Speaker 1: be with her anymore. That's the whole thing is, like,
Speaker 1: if you want to break up with someone you have
Speaker 1: to be okay with, however they're gonna feel about you
Speaker 1: after ye.
Speaker 4: Man, hearing those words just shivers down my spine. The
Speaker 4: coldness in Brook's voice.
Speaker 2: I want to dump a woman and then you want
Speaker 2: her to still like you?
Speaker 1: Like that?
Speaker 4: You hear the ice in her veins, Jack, she is
Speaker 4: so ready, So.
Speaker 5: Well as long as you do all of it, like
Speaker 5: I don't really want to be talking with her?
Speaker 4: Yeah, perfect, Jack, Brook is going to handle all of this.
Speaker 4: You don't have to say anything. You can just listen
Speaker 4: quietly and hear how it goes. We will have you
Speaker 4: in the sidelines if you do want to jump in
Speaker 4: and say something, or if we need to call you
Speaker 4: in maybe to clarify a point, well, we may have
Speaker 4: to have him join at some point, just because who
Speaker 4: knows how it's going to turn out.
Speaker 1: I don't think it's going to be that bad. I mean, honestly,
Speaker 1: she's fiery. Why would anyone want to be with someone
Speaker 1: that doesn't want to be with them?
Speaker 4: Good? Save that Save that for when you when you
Speaker 4: talk to Megan here. So Brook, I'm not going to
Speaker 4: say a word. The phone is going to ring, and
Speaker 4: if she answers, you can start talking directly to her.
Speaker 2: It's a huge deal.
Speaker 4: Not for Brook Fox.
Speaker 5: Here we go, God speed, god speed, good luck.
Speaker 4: Brook. Here we go.
Speaker 3: Hello.
Speaker 1: Hi is this Megan?
Speaker 3: Yes, this is Megan. Who's this?
Speaker 2: Hi, Megan. This is Brooke.
Speaker 1: I'm from a radio show called Brooke and Jeffrey in
Speaker 1: the Morning.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, Hi, you're on the.
Speaker 1: Show right now, Megan, because your boyfriend is a listener
Speaker 1: of ours.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, so what's going on?
Speaker 4: Well, what's going on?
Speaker 1: Yeah, so Jack wrote into the show because Jack is
Speaker 1: having troubles, we'll say, communicating a pretty clear message that
Speaker 1: he wants to share with you, and he asks for
Speaker 1: specifically my help.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1: So the good is it. It sounds like you're an
Speaker 1: incredibly strong, independent woman who knows exactly what she wants
Speaker 1: in life. And I love that. Applause Okay, so silence.
Speaker 2: That's that's fine.
Speaker 1: The bad news, there is some bad news to that,
Speaker 1: is that Jack is none of those things. And you
Speaker 1: may already know that he was talking about a boyfriend there.
Speaker 1: I mean, he's calling me to ask for a hard
Speaker 1: help in a hard conversation.
Speaker 3: I'm listening, Okay.
Speaker 4: More nervous because she's doing.
Speaker 1: He feels like this relationship, the relationship between you and
Speaker 1: him isn't working anymore. So he feels like it would
Speaker 1: be better if you two went your separate ways.
Speaker 3: I don't know what you're doing, but we're not breaking up.
Speaker 3: It's not happening. So thanks for the car.
Speaker 2: Oh no, you are.
Speaker 1: You are breaking up like it's not there's no choice
Speaker 1: in it. You tell her, Jack is exiting the relationship.
Speaker 1: He is no longer in a relationship with you.
Speaker 3: You know, if what you're saying is even true, and
Speaker 3: I'm not being pranked or something that totally wastes my time,
Speaker 3: maybe do something actually helpful and smart and make him
Speaker 3: tell me himself, you know, grow some balls and talk
Speaker 3: to me instead of hiding behind some on the radio. Oh.
Speaker 2: Actually I actually told him that. I mean I used
Speaker 2: different words, but I I you know.
Speaker 1: I I was like, come on, you can't do this yourself,
Speaker 1: Like it doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 2: Why would you?
Speaker 3: Yeah, clearly you can't do it either.
Speaker 4: I'm doing it.
Speaker 2: I'm doing it.
Speaker 1: The problem is is that he apparently has tried to
Speaker 1: have this conversation with you before, and it sounds like
Speaker 1: you may have told him no then as well Okay.
Speaker 3: I don't know you, but you sound like a real
Speaker 3: pathetic loser. That's something you do.
Speaker 2: That's fine. I mean, honestly, I could take those shots.
Speaker 3: You shut up for a second, okay. Doesn't make you
Speaker 3: feel good about yourself, don't make you feel powerful. You're
Speaker 3: truly sad.
Speaker 2: No, I'm not trying to be good or powerful.
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to help Jack out.
Speaker 3: Because you know that's not your job to help help
Speaker 3: him out.
Speaker 2: Well, it is.
Speaker 1: We do a radio show, we do a lot of
Speaker 1: relationship stuff.
Speaker 3: It's not in your business. It shouldn't even be happening
Speaker 3: right now. You have no part in this, okay.
Speaker 1: I mean I don't want to have any part in it,
Speaker 1: but well, can't you do because this is what you're
Speaker 1: doing and you've decided to do.
Speaker 2: Just wait.
Speaker 1: He told me that you guys were on and off
Speaker 1: for a long time before you started an exclusive relationship,
Speaker 1: which is already okay.
Speaker 2: And he also told me that like there's no action
Speaker 2: like he said that.
Speaker 3: It was like, oh my god, you shut up any
Speaker 3: your business? Why is not something that has to be
Speaker 3: discussed publicly. The fact that you would even bring it
Speaker 3: up is disgusting.
Speaker 2: Okay, you know, like, that's not gross.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, Megan. Can I step in? I'm the Jeffrey
Speaker 4: part of the Brook and Jeffrey in the morning Show,
Speaker 4: and I apologize that my co host took it way
Speaker 4: too far there. That was super You've been talking and
Speaker 4: it hasn't been going. This is obviously different than how
Speaker 4: we thought it would go. And I heard Meghan say
Speaker 4: that she wants.
Speaker 3: To do is going to be a piece of cake
Speaker 3: or walk in the park. He's gonna call up and
Speaker 3: say that my boyfriend wants to break up with me.
Speaker 3: He's not even here where.
Speaker 4: Is he optimistic it would go that way? But you
Speaker 4: want to hear it straight from Jack. And the good
Speaker 4: news is Jack is on the other line waiting to
Speaker 4: jump in.
Speaker 2: Jack on, Jam's there.
Speaker 4: Jack, your girlfriend is can't wait to speak to you.
Speaker 3: Go for it, Jack, what's going on here?
Speaker 1: Hey?
Speaker 3: Meghan? Is a joke? Please tell me? I'm being like, yeah,
Speaker 3: what's going on?
Speaker 5: Okay, wait, let's just hold on here. I honestly, I
Speaker 5: really don't know what's going on because I just asked
Speaker 5: her to talk to you. But I don't know why
Speaker 5: she's like being so mean and abrupt Jack.
Speaker 1: Jack she's gonna be able to go back and listen
Speaker 1: to the podcast. Like you fully clearly ask me to
Speaker 1: dump your girlfriend right now?
Speaker 4: It's really fun. What's that, Megan?
Speaker 3: What did you want her to say to me?
Speaker 4: Jack?
Speaker 3: What was the whole point of this? Then?
Speaker 4: Es, it's interesting?
Speaker 5: Well, I mean I just wanted to like see where
Speaker 5: the relationship is at.
Speaker 1: Oh god, honestly, Megan, why are you not dumping him?
Speaker 1: You should not be in a position where you're getting
Speaker 1: dumped by Jack.
Speaker 3: Can you Jack someone someone new, brook or whatever her
Speaker 3: name is.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Bro, this isn't your relationship. This is their relationship.
Speaker 4: Don't tell them what they are in Arts and Cannon.
Speaker 5: Can't be You're like, Megan's a really good person, and
Speaker 5: yeah I was a good person.
Speaker 3: Or you kind of implied that, Jack, I implied that you.
Speaker 2: Were the loser in the relationship.
Speaker 4: So much better. Okay, what is happening, Megan?
Speaker 5: I'm sorry, I just I did not think she was
Speaker 5: going to come after you like that.
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, it sounds like Brooks the one who needs
Speaker 3: to get laid. Just clearly, she's just out in the bedroom.
Speaker 4: She knows a lot about sexual health. She diagnosed you.
Speaker 2: This guy isn't even This is a very unhelped So we.
Speaker 4: Came in with the goal to have a tough, difficult
Speaker 4: conversation and we definitely did. This was one of the
Speaker 4: toughest conversations Brooks ever had. Jack. You know, you said
Speaker 4: your girlfriend was a little intense. I'm not hearing it.
Speaker 4: But in the long run, I hope that you two
Speaker 4: are able to go home and talk this out and
Speaker 4: get to whatever destination you want to be at in
Speaker 4: your relationship.
Speaker 2: You guys should not be together.
Speaker 4: Why do you keep jumping in and saying that because.
Speaker 3: Of how we started all of this, Jack, We're going
Speaker 3: to talk tonight and if this is something that you
Speaker 3: put them up to, tell me to.
Speaker 1: My face, Okay, yeah, that's gonna happen.
Speaker 5: Honeywere of course, of course, and you know I would
Speaker 5: never do something like that.
Speaker 4: Well, I'm gonna call this a successful edition of Brooke
Speaker 4: breaks you Up? Yeah, all that as an option. By
Speaker 4: the way, if you're.
Speaker 2: Listening, I'm positive they're still together.
Speaker 4: Brook and Jeffrey in the morning text in the seventy
Speaker 4: eighty five nine two says, are you sure Brooke has
Speaker 4: actually dumped people before? Because why is she so bad?
Speaker 4: At this her question, Brook here to was fond.
Speaker 1: I was actually on one, like I was doing a
Speaker 1: good job until he came back in Like that was
Speaker 1: the worst mistake we could have ever made. And I'll
Speaker 1: tell you I feel a little bad about how harsh
Speaker 1: I was to him.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think it's any surprise that he turned
Speaker 4: on you, because you were basically spending the whole time
Speaker 4: being like, he's such a loser, why would you want that?
Speaker 2: That was actually my favorite part of the whole.
Speaker 3: Well, I'm just.
Speaker 1: Starting to think the strong women are the problem in
Speaker 1: this situation.
Speaker 2: It's the weak man.
Speaker 5: Issue.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you know what was good to hear what
Speaker 4: Jack stand up and defend his girlfriend's honor against mean
Speaker 4: old evil Brook when she turned on it. That was good. Yeah,
Speaker 4: he grew a spine right before our very eye.
Speaker 5: Did.
Speaker 4: Like God's work there, Brook, That was beautiful.
Speaker 1: All I can feel good about thinking is that maybe
Speaker 1: he did have the realization that he actually wanted to
Speaker 1: be in the relationship with her after listening. No, No,
Speaker 1: I think he's literally he's just scared.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's gonna be handcuffed.
Speaker 1: I'm trying here, Jose, Okay.
Speaker 4: We can't wait to hear down the road where they
Speaker 4: get married against his will one day.
Speaker 1: You know, if anyone wants my help breaking up with someone.
Speaker 2: Maybe just do it yourself.
Speaker 4: No, that's why they need your help. Even if it
Speaker 4: doesn't go well, it's still hilarious to hear you try,
Speaker 4: so keep texting in seven eight, five, nine two if
Speaker 4: you want Brooke to break your relationship up, and make
Speaker 4: sure you subscribe to our podcast wherever you're listening to it.
Speaker 4: It's Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning.
