1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,480
Speaker 1: It's Tuesday, which means it's your Awkward Tuesday podcast on

2
00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:06,680
Speaker 1: a second Date update. I mean, Awkward Tuesday for us

3
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:09,120
Speaker 1: is really kind of like Second Date in that it's

4
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:11,760
Speaker 1: relationship oriented, but it could be any relationship.

5
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, but today we do have a boyfriend and a

6
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 2: girlfriend that are having issues.

7
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:17,200
Speaker 3: We do, which you know, it's always good when they

8
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:20,280
Speaker 3: call it radio station to talk, they call them communicate.

9
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:23,720
Speaker 2: If I was dealing with what this guy was dealing with,

10
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:25,040
Speaker 2: I would have lost.

11
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,520
Speaker 3: It a lot sooner than he did a lot sooner.

12
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:29,319
Speaker 2: So you're gonna hear that in just a second, but

13
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:32,480
Speaker 2: I love to highlight your comments. Yes, Libby said, I

14
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:34,400
Speaker 2: only listened to you guys in the car, and no,

15
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:36,239
Speaker 2: I'm not changing it for anyone.

16
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 3: Do you think she listens to the podcast or the

17
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:41,400
Speaker 3: radio in the car. I don't know, you know. I

18
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 3: read it first as radio, and then I'm like, maybe not,

19
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,600
Speaker 3: maybe not. That's so interesting we are on the radio.

20
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,879
Speaker 3: You guys know that as well. All right, let's get

21
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:52,599
Speaker 3: into your podcast. It starts right now.

22
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 4: Imagine thinking you just won the lottery, only to find

23
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:01,680
Speaker 4: out two months later it was a weird computer glitch

24
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 4: and you actually won nothing, No way. That's what it's

25
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,560
Speaker 4: like getting hired to work in radio.

26
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 5: Yay.

27
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:12,679
Speaker 4: Oh wait a second, Oh.

28
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,399
Speaker 3: Come on, Jack, I love working with us.

29
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:18,120
Speaker 4: Sure, but there is one non radio person who understands

30
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:21,680
Speaker 4: the feeling all too well. Because our listener thought his

31
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,840
Speaker 4: girlfriend was planning the most epic birthday trip for him

32
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 4: of all time wow, until one text message shattered everything.

33
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 4: Oh no, and now he needs our help not to

34
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 4: save the trip, but possibly to save his relationship. You're

35
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 4: gonna hear it in a brand new awkward Tuesday phone call.

36
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 2: Next, It's awkward.

37
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 3: It's Tuesday.

38
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,199
Speaker 5: It's awkward Tuesday phone call.

39
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 4: Do you like it when a significant other makes a

40
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 4: big deal about your birthday, like, goes through the effort

41
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 4: to plan things for you, buys your nice presence, does

42
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 4: a big surprise. Yes, I mean Brooks says she loves it,

43
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 4: unless the surprise is a barbershop quartet.

44
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 3: Was unpumpy. Okay, that was.

45
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 4: Not cool fun, But there are contingencies to the surprise.

46
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 2: Clearly well, four weird old men standing behind me singing

47
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:17,080
Speaker 2: in a radio studio.

48
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 3: It's not my idea of a good time.

49
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 4: Kind of an inside joke. But if you didn't know

50
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 4: a while ago, Brook's husband organized that for her on

51
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,519
Speaker 4: the show, and she absolutely despised it.

52
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 2: Dude, just making eye took contact with people that are

53
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 2: singing to you is just too much.

54
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 3: I wish I was here for that.

55
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 4: But anyway, I bring it up because one of our listeners, Kroy,

56
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 4: is having a birthday soon and his significant other was

57
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 4: making a big deal about it. Emphasis on was because

58
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 4: it sounds like maybe things have changed.

59
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 6: Croy.

60
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:50,720

Speaker 5: Chrissy for two years now, and months ago she started

70
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,920
Speaker 5: making a big deal about how she wants to go

71
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,079
Speaker 5: over the top for me for my thirtieth birthday.

72
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 6: That's awesome, great girlfriend.

73
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:30,959
Speaker 4: Yeah what does that mean though.

74
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 5: Well, it means that she got me an early birthday present,

75
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 5: which was a really nice watch. Oh and in addition

76
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 5: to that, for the actual birthday, she booked us a

77
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 5: trip to the Bahamas.

78
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 3: Wow, yay, my god.

79
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 4: You didn't take the watch as like kind of an

80
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 4: insulting present.

81
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 3: Though, Wait, what do you mean like you're running out

82
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 3: of time? You're in thirty Yeah, you're never on time

83
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 3: for stuff on time?

84
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 4: Thought, now you're getting old times running out. You didn't

85
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 4: read it like that symbolic.

86
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 5: No, maybe if it wasn't as nice a watch as this,

87
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 5: But I mean I didn't even think about that.

88
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 4: Are you calling me?

89
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 5: Old? Wait?

90
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 2: Are you calling and there's a like you have an

91
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:13,840
Speaker 2: upcoming Bahamas trip right?

92
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 5: Well yeah, but I mean even more than that, it's

93
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,159
Speaker 5: not just the watch of the Bahamas trip. She even

94
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,839
Speaker 5: showed me that she splurged on the hotel room too,

95
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 5: like we have a super nice view of the ocean.

96
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 5: That's amazing. She bought us outfits for the trip to

97
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 5: where when we go out?

98
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 3: So wait, where's the problem come in?

99
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 5: So the problem comes in that last week she tells

100
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,719
Speaker 5: me that she had to return my watch. What wait? What?

101
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 3: Oh?

102
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 5: Yeah? And I was like, oh why, I really like

103
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 5: this watch. It's really nice. And she said, I know,

104
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 5: but maybe we'll get you a different one later. Oh,

105
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 5: And I was like, what does that mean? And she

106
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 5: was like, I don't really want to talk about it.

107
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 6: Oh my god.

108
00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 3: I immediately think maybe she overspent?

109
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you know, like is it sounds like she

110
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,279
Speaker 2: was just going nuts, like the hotel room and the

111
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 2: trip and the watch, and then she got the credit.

112
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 3: Card bill and she's like, wait a minute, I went

113
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 3: too far.

114
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:14,039
Speaker 4: And we could do with that with a watch, but

115
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 4: we'll still do the vacation.

116
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 5: Yeah.

117
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 6: Yeah.

118
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 5: Well my thoughts are worse because after that happened last week,

119
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 5: she texted me yesterday saying that she had to cancel

120
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 5: the trip.

121
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 4: What no, now Bahamas are off the table too. Yes,

122
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 4: what are you thinking?

123
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,919
Speaker 5: I think she's planning to break up with me?

124
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 3: Oh?

125
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 4: Really, come on, stay, No, she's not playing to break

126
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 4: up with you. You're a good guy.

127
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 2: Wait out the breakup, though, wouldn't she just because she

128
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:46,720
Speaker 2: wants to get the refund first?

129
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 3: Maybe she doesn't want to spend the money.

130
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 2: I don't know, but I would feel the same because

131
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 2: why why else would you do that?

132
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:55,799
Speaker 4: Like why Genji's rebook?

133
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,039
Speaker 3: You can't do Cleveland instead of like the Bahamas.

134
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 4: He's sure even if it is too expensive. You can

135
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:01,840
Speaker 4: find it more affordable.

136
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 3: I think, more than anything.

137
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:06,359
Speaker 2: Why no explanation? Why isn't she telling you? Have you

138
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 2: asked her what's going on?

139
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 5: When I kept asking her why, she was like, oh,

140
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:12,720
Speaker 5: we'll do a different thing. We'll do a different thing

141
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 5: later later. And she usually brings things up to me

142
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 5: if something's on her mind or whatever, but this has

143
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 5: been different, and I'm like, I can't think of anything

144
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 5: other than she's gonna break up with me, and I

145
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 5: don't know why. I have no idea. Why.

146
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 3: Oh man, that's tough. Like I think i'd be pissed.

147
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 5: Yea.

148
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 2: If I'm just thinking if my boyfriend gave me these big, grandiose.

149
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 3: Things and then took them away, I'd be like what

150
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:40,159
Speaker 3: the hell?

151
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 2: Like I would probably be the one thinking about dumping them,

152
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 2: to be honest, no, you got to.

153
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 3: Be taking it back to playing something better, to take

154
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 3: away presents that have already been gifted.

155
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,119
Speaker 4: Is that your suggestion to him right now? He should

156
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,480
Speaker 4: dump her first before she dumps him.

157
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 5: No?

158
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 3: No, no, no, Well maybe what she has to.

159
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 5: Say, well, I'm not that shallow, and really I'm just

160
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 5: more concerned about our relationship here that's good.

161
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 3: That's good. You seem like a really good guy.

162
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 4: I mean, aside from taking away all your birthday presents

163
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 4: and canceling your birthday trip and then not communicating about

164
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 4: her feelings about why. Is there any other red flags

165
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 4: in the relationships?

166
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 5: Yeah? None that I can think of.

167
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 4: Okay, well, then we need to help you figure out

168
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 4: what the heck is going on? Yes, with your girlfriend

169
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 4: and your birthday plans coming up. There has to be

170
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 4: an explanation.

171
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 5: I need her to open up and tell me, because

172
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 5: it seems like anything I say she quickly just closes

173
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 5: it down. She doesn't want to talk about it at

174
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 5: all anymore.

175
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 6: We could just call it bunch like Chuck e cheeses

176
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 6: and see if there's any bookings.

177
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 3: So she could still be planning a surprise.

178
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 6: There's a surprise from the surprise.

179
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 5: I don't know. It seems like the birthday is like

180
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 5: far away in her mind too, like like she's not

181
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 5: even planning anything anymore, you know.

182
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 4: Okay, So we have a mission now to find out

183
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 4: why after your girl friend booked a vacation for your

184
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 4: thirtieth birthday and got you an expensive watch, she took

185
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 4: it all back with zero explanation. We'll try to get

186
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 4: you some answers in your awkward Tuesday phone call.

187
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 5: Thank you guys.

188
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 4: Next, it's awkward, it's Tuesday.

189
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 5: It's awkward Tuesday phone call.

190
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 4: What are the subtle red flags from a significant other

191
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 4: that show they're attempting to break up with you?

192
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 5: Oh?

193
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 4: Man, maybe if they change your Netflix profile name to

194
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 4: just the word guest. That's not a good sign screen.

195
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 4: Or if you find a PowerPoint presentation on their computer

196
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 4: about why you should start seeing other people.

197
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,080
Speaker 3: Oh, that very specific.

198
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,680
Speaker 4: It's a red flag, but not saying it's totally over yet.

199
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, could have helpful information to it.

200
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 4: And the only thing our listener Kroy has noticed from

201
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 4: his girlfriend are she's returned his birthday gift without asking him,

202
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:10,720
Speaker 4: canceled his birthday vacation, and hasn't been communicating about why

203
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,599
Speaker 4: she's doing these things or really wanting to talk to

204
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 4: him about it at all. So not great, but that's

205
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,960
Speaker 4: why he's come to us looking for advice on how

206
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 4: to finally get his girlfriend to just be honest and

207
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 4: tell him what's going on. Yes, Brook, Kroy needs you

208
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 4: right now and your wisdom. What do you have to

209
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 4: say to Kroy.

210
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 5: To help you. Man.

211
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 3: I am just like you, Kroy.

212
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 2: I always go to worst case scenario, like I fall

213
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 2: down that rabbit hole of this is going to the

214
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 2: most terrible thing ever.

215
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:41,599
Speaker 3: And I think.

216
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 4: I'm hoping there was some advice on so that is.

217
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 3: Well, that is the advice.

218
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,960
Speaker 2: You can only go up from there, you know, Like

219
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 2: like my mom used to tell me before i'd like

220
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 2: try out for a team or apply from a job,

221
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:56,440
Speaker 2: She'd be like, you're not gonna get that.

222
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 3: You probably won't get that, And then when I did,

223
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:00,839
Speaker 3: it was so exciting. So maybe assume she's cheating on

224
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 3: you too. Yeah, yeah, talking alexis.

225
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 4: You've already hit rock bottom.

226
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 6: Croy.

227
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 4: That must feel good.

228
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not. I can't say I'm rolling with that

229
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,240
Speaker 5: advice because I didn't even think about her cheating on me,

230
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 5: and now I'm kind of spiraling.

231
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 2: Oh oh wow, so you're gonna so there we go.

232
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 4: What do you think, Jose, I.

233
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 6: Don't know a ton about women. Shocking, Okay, I'm assuming

234
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 6: if you want one to open up to you, you

235
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 6: want to give her like food and wine. But you're

236
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 6: not with her right now, You're not in the same location.

237
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 3: Are you going to give me the food and water.

238
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 6: Tell her you love her, and then don't talk. Just

239
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 6: see what she says. She may feel guilty and open up.

240
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 6: She may double down and say I love you forever.

241
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:50,760
Speaker 4: Okay, Okay, I just toss out and I love you

242
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:52,839
Speaker 4: and read the vibe from her reaction. What do you

243
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 4: think of that, Croy?

244
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:54,680
Speaker 3: That's what I should have said.

245
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 5: I can figure out a way to read that in yeah, yeah.

246
00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 2: I love you to your girlfriend of two years.

247
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 6: It's going to be a tough one.

248
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:05,559
Speaker 4: Somehow I'll figure out a way to drop the l

249
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,839
Speaker 4: arm on her. But I think that's actually good advice, Jose.

250
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 2: And when she doesn't say anything back to you or

251
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:12,719
Speaker 2: says thank you, it's okay man.

252
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 5: Okay.

253
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 4: We're running out of time, though, so we just got

254
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,959
Speaker 4: to start dialing your girlfriend, Chrissy and see if she answers. Croy,

255
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 4: You've got this.

256
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 5: Man, Okay, I'm ready, guys. Let's do it all right, man.

Speaker 5: if I could talk to you real quick for a second.

263
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 5: Of all, I'm kind of busy right now. Can we

00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 5: talk about when I get home? Uh? Well, you've been

269
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,320
Speaker 5: I'm just getting a bad feeling in the pit of

270
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 5: my stomach because of the way you've been acting the

271
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:30,720
Speaker 5: last month. I don't know what you're talking about. Okay.

272
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 5: You gave me that nice watch and then you gave

273
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 5: it back without asking me. Isn't that a little weird?

274
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 5: I mean, I'm sorry about that.

275
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 2: I don't know what to tell you, okay.

276
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,599
Speaker 5: And then you book us the trip of a lifetime

277
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 5: for my birthday and get me excited about it, and

278
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:57,079
Speaker 5: then text me yesterday saying that you canceled it. I

279
00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 5: don't know what to say, Chrissy, are you about to

280
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:11,680
Speaker 5: break up with me? Look? Something happened and I don't

281
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 5: know how to tell you. Okay, Okay, Well listen, I'm

282
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 5: here for you. Okay, I love you. Tell me what's

00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 5: going on? Please?

284
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,559
Speaker 4: Well, you know the watch I got it was pretty expensive.

285
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:30,559
Speaker 5: I mean maybe you don't know, but it was. Yeah, okay.

286
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 6: The trip my box was pretty pricey.

287
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 5: Okay. Well I didn't ask you to spend that money.

288
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 5: You wanted to spend the money, I know, and.

289
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,080
Speaker 6: I thought I could afford it because I was using

290
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 6: Apple Bay.

291
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 3: Oh no, okay, did you know that's real money?

292
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 5: Like I just thought it was like Apple points I

293
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 5: earned by using my iPhone. It's like I'm stupid.

294
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 2: Oh my god.

295
00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 4: Oh hello, hi Chrissy.

296
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:04,920
Speaker 2: What?

297
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 3: Oh sweet girl?

298
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, Chrissy, Hello, Hi, Hi.

299
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 4: It's my job to tell you right now that you're

300
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,080
Speaker 4: on a radio show called Brooke and Jeffrey in the

301
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 4: Morning and we're doing something called the awkward Tuesday phone call.

302
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 2: What.

303
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 5: I'm really sorry, Chrissy. I didn't know. I didn't know

304
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 5: how else to get you to talk about this. I

305
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:27,920
Speaker 5: had to go to the radio and Ed had the radio.

306
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 5: That's why I'm calling from a different number because I

307
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 5: didn't know what was going on. Just ask me at home.

308
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 3: No, it's okay, it's okay.

309
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 2: I mean, that's way better than what he thought, I said,

310
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 2: Jackie only was up.

311
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 4: No, it's I didn't know apple Pay was using real

312
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 4: money because I'm an idiot, because I was an Android

313
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 4: person for so long and I just chased over six

314
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 4: months ago.

315
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, you connect your credit card to I'm sorry you

316
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 2: didn't think apple pay was real money.

317
00:14:58,320 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 4: What did you think it was?

318
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 5: But I thought I was earning like Apple points. It's

319
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 5: like taking American dollars from your credit card.

320
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 3: That's why your.

321
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 2: Credit card pops up when you press it, right.

322
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 6: I just thought there was a deposit to have, just

323
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 6: some case, Okay, to make sure you have an active

324
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 6: bank account.

325
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 3: It's okay.

326
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 2: Adulting's hard and we're not all taught the lessons that

327
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 2: we should be taught before being sent out.

328
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 3: To the real world.

329
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:26,080
Speaker 4: Okay, we don't need to come descend.

330
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 3: I'm not trying to be condescending. I've tried to make

331
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 3: her feel better.

332
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 5: Babe. You thought that for using your iPhone for six months,

333
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 5: you got enough Apple points to buy a nice watch

334
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 5: and a trip to the Bahamas.

335
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 2: Well, I use it every day.

336
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 3: I mean I like her point system better.

337
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, you can't believe.

338
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 5: You put me on the rating.

339
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:51,880
Speaker 3: You could have just asked me.

340
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 5: Now everybody knows how stupid I am.

341
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 3: No, no, wait, you just had an airhead moment. We've

342
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 3: all had them before.

343
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 5: Funda. This is a lot better than what I thought

344
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 5: was happening. And I thought you canceled all those things

345
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 5: because you were trying to break up with me.

346
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:06,359
Speaker 6: Yeah.

347
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 5: Oh, I just didn't know how to tell you because

348
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 5: it's like the dumbest thing I've ever done, and I

349
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 5: was really dumb, and now you just put me on

350
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:14,960

352
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 4: on blaster or do anything. It's he only came to

353
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 4: us for help because he was trying to ask you

354
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 4: about it, and you kept saying we'll talk later or

355
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 4: you're too busy. The good news is this is all

356
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 4: finally out in the open. There's solutions. It sounds like

357
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,760
Speaker 4: you've figured things out about how Apple pay actually works.

358
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 3: And what a sweet girlfriend to even plan that stuff

359
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:39,640

00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 4: With that comment, he just heard himself some boyfriend points there.

363
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's why I fill that bucket, buddy, which are

364
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 1: different than American dollar points.

365
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 4: Yes, so you know you can't buy much.

366
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 5: It's kind of crypto.

367
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 4: So listen, Chrissy, CROI, both of you. You can go

368
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 4: back to planning the thirty its birthday, something a little

369
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,679
Speaker 4: bit more in your budget. But don't be upset with

370
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:05,120
Speaker 4: each other.

373
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:13,359
Speaker 4: How about you?

374
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 5: This is very embarrassing, but I will get over it.

375
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, Chrissy, look at it this way. A

376
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,399
Speaker 4: wise old radio host once told me this is your

377
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:28,840
Speaker 4: rock bottom. It can only get better. It actually does.

378
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:33,440
Speaker 1: Working Jeffrey in the morning, There's.

379
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:35,240
Speaker 4: Got to be some people listening to this right now

380
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,920
Speaker 4: who just had the exact same realization that Apple Pay

381
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 4: isn't rewards points for using your cell phone. It's actual,

382
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:43,680
Speaker 4: real American dollars.

383
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:45,679
Speaker 6: Some kid is like, I'm about to be in so

384
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 6: much trouble.

385
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 1: Yep, I'm gonna tell you my kids don't even have

386
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: phones yet, but I'm still gonna go home and show them.

387
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's real money. I mean, Alexis Starbucks uses this

388
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 4: where you can earn Starbucks points and earn and get

389
00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:00,080
Speaker 4: free drinks. Why wouldn't Apple do the same exact.

390
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 3: Thing, right, you're right.

391
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:02,400
Speaker 5: I don't know talking.

392
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,000

395
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 4: son's piggy bank.

396
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:16,000
Speaker 3: It seems like A does not do that part singing.

397
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 4: Everyone subscribe and earn free money stolen from Brook's children.

398
