1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,040
Speaker 1: Number one, be good to each other.

2
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:05,279
Speaker 2: I agree.

3
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:10,920
Speaker 1: Number two, make sure that you have food in your

4
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:14,720
Speaker 1: fridgid air because you do not want to be hungry

5
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:18,360
Speaker 1: or starved. Correct.

6
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 2: Every relationship has certain ground rules that you both agree

7
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,680
Speaker 2: to follow to make it work. Like for that pair

8
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:29,479
Speaker 2: of ninety year olds, don't starve was very important for

9
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:34,960
Speaker 2: the health of their marriage. But there every couple though

10
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:37,959
Speaker 2: a little bit different, Like in Brooks relationship. She has

11
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 2: a strict no eye contact Monday through Saturday.

12
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: But Sunday is really sweet day is so special.

13
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 2: But do you have any unique rules in your relationship

14
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,600
Speaker 2: that maybe other people would find a little bit odd

15
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 2: Because a recent survey asked that to couples and they

16
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 2: all shared theirs. Maybe you'll like one of these so

17
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 2: much that you steal it for yourself. Because we have

18
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:07,119
Speaker 2: the top ten unique rules that help people in their relationships, I.

19
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 1: Like can't even think of what these would be.

20
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 2: Let's get into it. Number ten you can only fight

21
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 2: while naked.

22
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 1: As soon as.

23
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 2: An argument starts to get really heated, you have to

24
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,320
Speaker 2: strip down out of your clothes if you want to

25
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 2: keep art. What if you're like in the middle of Walmart,

26
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 2: I'm telling you, we don't need this much brea.

27
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 1: Do you feel like that's gonna end up a lot

28
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 1: of therapy for your kids later that your kid.

29
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 2: Got into a fight with another person at school and

30
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 2: got naked. But for that couple, it helps keep their

31
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,679
Speaker 2: relationships from it probably just helps bring down the argument

32
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 2: so they don't fight as much.

33
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 1: I just end up I'm not taking my shirt off

34
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 1: for you.

35
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 2: Number nine. Never seeing or dealing with each other's families.

36
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 2: What never? That includes going to family functions or even

37
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 2: holidays like Christmas. You only go to your own families,

38
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 2: not they like you separate during That's terrible. How is

39
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 2: that healthy? It probably started after the naked fight rule.

40
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 2: We're not going to each other's families anymore. Number eight.

41
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 2: Having all your big fights over text messages. They say

42
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 2: that forces you to actually slow down and respond without

43
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,800
Speaker 2: just blurting out the stuff in anger.

44
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 1: It's hard to see like the tot of someone when

45
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 1: they're texting.

46
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 2: But you don't. You tend to not say as many

47
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 2: mean things in anger because to type it out what

48
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 2: I am waiting she's like, that's not going to make

49
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:38,959
Speaker 2: him cry.

50
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 1: Hold on.

51
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 2: They say it also creates a paper trail so you

52
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 2: can go back and prove what someone did or didn't say. True.

53
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: That's always healthy.

54
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 2: Ago, it's a survey of unconventional rules people using their relationships,

55
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 2: but others, like the people in this room, might find weird.

56
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 2: Number seven living in separate homes.

57
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: Oh my god. I knew a couple who did this really. Yes,

58
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 1: they were also in radio, and she said they tried

59
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: to live together and she hated all of his crap,

60
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,919
Speaker 1: Like she said, he had so much stuff, and so

61
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 1: she just got her own place. Yeah, oh yeah, they

62
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 1: both were in separate apartments.

63
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 2: This couple says they bought a duplex instead of a

64
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,399
Speaker 2: normal house so that when they got home they could

65
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 2: just have their own personal space, but then still be

66
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 2: close enough to be like it'd be like you're constantly

67
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 2: dating for your entire life, or.

68
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: It'd be like you were constantly neighbors your entire.

69
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 2: Neighbors with benefits. Number six a chicken nugget tax. It's

70
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 2: where if either of you makes chicken nuggets, you have

71
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,839
Speaker 2: to bring one nugget as a tax to the other

72
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 2: person first before you can eat any of yourself. So

73
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 2: specific with chicken nuggets. Yeah, I think it's very bonding

74
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 2: for couples, or.

75
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,839
Speaker 1: It's Alexis's relationship. He doesn't know what cook anything else.

76
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 2: But I'm not singles for the pop tart tax and

77
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 2: the hot pocket tax anything that you need to make

78
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 2: anything fresh air fra. Number five on demand makeout sessions. Yeah,

79
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 2: this is a rule where at anytime you could say

80
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 2: I need thirty seconds, and your partner has to stop

81
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 2: what they're doing and give you thirty seconds of uninterrupted kissing.

82
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 2: I think it is great.

83
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go no, oh really.

84
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 2: No, we we kiss, we make out.

85
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 1: But I don't need this on demand stuff like you

86
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 1: If you need it, then you need to make it

87
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 1: happen for yourself.

88
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 2: I need a little bit of like.

89
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:42,599
Speaker 1: Enticement, right, not just like that, just like on demand.

90
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 2: Sit you take it over here now. Wow. Number four

91
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 2: no checking in. This is zero pressure to call or

92
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 2: text when you're like going out with your friends, you're

93
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 2: out of town, or you're away for the day. Your

94
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,119
Speaker 2: significant other isn't allowed to get offended or upset about

95
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 2: you not check in. You just have to trust each

96
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,159
Speaker 2: other fully.

97
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,039
Speaker 1: My husband was gone all weekend and it was the

98
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 1: best weekend. We don't really call each other a text

99
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: when we're apart, She's like, dang it God.

100
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:24,320
Speaker 2: Number three separate groceries what whoa? This couple uses separate

101
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 2: groceries where you still can share big things like milk

102
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 2: and butter, but otherwise you go to the store by

103
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:34,080
Speaker 2: yourselves and get whatever you want just for you couple.

104
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: This sounds like a roommate sitch.

105
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 2: And that just seems like it'd be way more expensive.

106
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 2: You're buying twice as many groceries your significant other.

107
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:43,480
Speaker 1: Hey, do you have any eggs?

108
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 2: Ran out?

109
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 1: Can I borrow some sugar?

110
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 2: Number two mid argument I love you. This is if

111
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 2: things are getting too heated when you two are fighting

112
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 2: and one of you needs to storm out of the room,

113
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,479
Speaker 2: you have to say I love you before you leave.

114
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,919
Speaker 1: You know that's followed with a butt But what?

115
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 2: And the number one unconventional rule some people use in

116
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 2: their relationships in order to make it work. Okay, whisper fights.

117
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 2: If you're ever really upset at your partner, you're only

118
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 2: allowed to whisper your frustration at them, which helps break

119
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 2: the tension because it's it's hard to take anybody seriously

120
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 2: when they're whispering angry.

121
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 1: Would it be really hard for you, Jeff, you can't

122
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: hear anything.

123
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 2: What can you do? A load? But that's what couples

124
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 2: use in their relationships and it works. Just naked whispering

125
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,160
Speaker 2: the seventy five nine two Should we do naked fights

126
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,040
Speaker 2: on our show? Whenever things get needed in the studio,

127
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 2: phone taps coming up, Jeff, make me phone taps next.

128
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 1: Brooking Jeffrey in the morning Wing
