35
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 2: practice tattooing on your baby's lower back? There's a cute

36
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,520

37
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 2: That's adorable. No, okay, So there is a limit, and

38
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 2: one of our listeners is definitely going to push the

39
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 2: limits today because she needs to ask her friend a

40
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 2: very controversial question that could easily throw a wrench into

41
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 2: their relationship. But she has to try because if she doesn't,

42
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:58,840
Speaker 2: she might regret it for the rest of her life. WHOA,

Speaker 5: It's Tuesday.

46
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 2: It's awkward Tuesday phone call. What are the unspoken rules

47
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 2: of friendship? Oh, nobody else, not those ones. That's a

48
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 2: different set, you know, rules like you have to hate

49
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 2: the same people as I do, but never tag me

50
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 2: in any ugly photos, you.

51
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 3: Just don't post them to begin with dove. If you're

52
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 3: a good.

53
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 2: Friend, that too. And also, before any night out, we

54
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,520
Speaker 2: have to practice kissing on each other for at least

55
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 2: twenty minutes.

56
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 3: Oh, this is why we never go out.

57
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 2: With you friends do. They're just some of the sacred

58
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 2: rules that must never be broken. But today one of

59
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 2: our listeners wants to violate one of the holy laws

60
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 2: of friendship, and she needs our help to do it.

61
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 2: Her name is Monica. Monica, please tell me you're not

62
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 2: breaking the kissing rule.

63
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:03,639
Speaker 5: Isn't that the kissing rule?

64
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 2: Thank god? Okay, well, we're not friends yet we were? Okay, No,

65
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,919
Speaker 2: maybe by the end of this call we'll get there. Okay,

66
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 2: But first, let's try to help you out with your situation.

67
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 2: What's going on in your life that made you email

Speaker 2: the show for help?

69
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,440

Speaker 5: of those beer ping pong things or whatever, and it

124
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:53,560

Speaker 5: I mean kind of you know, it's just like.

130
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 1: A bob Okay, Okay, Can I ask before we get

131
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:10,880

132
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 5: I mean, there are theories out there, but I don't

133
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 5: know exactly what happened, you know.

134
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 2: Okay, So besides the beer pong forehead kiss that was

135
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 2: completely medicinal for healing purposes, has anything else happened between

136
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:24,799
Speaker 2: you and the ex?

137
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 5: I mean, we've just been texting a lot since that night.

138
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 5: Oh talks around the idea of us we've been hanging out.

139
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:37,719
Speaker 2: Okay. Does your friends know anything about this, that this

140
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 2: is going on?

141
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 5: She does not, okay, And I mean that that's the

142
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 5: whole thing. That's why I want to call my friend

143
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 5: about this. We haven't done anything. I kind of want

144
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 5: to get her permission to move forward.

145
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 3: I mean, not a great move, but you're doing it

146
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,239
Speaker 3: in the right way. Yeah, so you should be proud

147
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:54,840
Speaker 3: of yourselves.

148
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,040
Speaker 2: Most people wouldn't even ask permission, They would just go

149
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:58,599
Speaker 2: right forward, wouldn't.

150
00:06:58,320 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 3: Do it in the first place.

151
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,479
Speaker 1: Well, again, if you want to keep the friendship, yeah,

152
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:03,159
Speaker 1: you know, you got.

153
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 3: To decide what's more.

154
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 6: Almost like if I wanted to steal from Brook, but

155
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 6: I asked first, like, can I take twenty bucks out

156
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 6: of your pocket? At some point today?

157
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: She probably say no, But like that I asked, I

158
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 1: guess that's an analogy we could use.

159
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 2: So do you want to give them twenty bucks or.

160
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 1: No, nobody's getting you can't have.

161
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 3: My exes though, to go around.

162
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 2: Okay, so it's okay when you're in high school or

163
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 2: when you're super old, but right now you no gotcha?

164
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 2: So why did you reach out to our show for help?

165
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 4: Like?

166
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 2: What are you looking to get from us?

167
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 1: Well?

168
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 5: I'm terrible at confrontation. I would rather just avoid it.

169
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 5: But I'm really hoping it doesn't come to any confrontation.

170
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 5: I hope that I come up with some valid points.

171
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 5: You guys help me, and she's just like, sure, go

172
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:55,560
Speaker 5: for it.

173
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 3: Okay, you know what, that.

174
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 2: Wouldn't be the best. If she was like disgusted with him.

175
00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 6: I can see it and be like, oh that guy's awful.

176
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 5: Girl.

177
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 6: Go ahead, you're gonna find out real quick, like I

178
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 6: could see it.

179
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 3: Yes, I mean the vibe from her is important. How

180
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 3: does she feel about her ex?

181
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 5: Do you know we haven't talked about him in a while.

182
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 5: I honestly don't know where she is with it.

183
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 4: So I was going to say, usually if they don't

184
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 4: talk about him, I have a feeling.

185
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 2: The total opposite's going to happen, and she's not only

186
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 2: going to okay it, she's going to be one hundred

187
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 2: percent supportive.

188
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: He's never been in a friendship, have you not really.

189
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,400
Speaker 2: How this goes? When we come back and call your

190
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,920
Speaker 2: friend Aaron and ask permission to date her ex boyfriend,

191
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 2: We're going to do it with your awkward Tuesday phone

192
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 2: call right after this. It's awkward.

193
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 3: It's Tuesday.

194
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:52,079
Speaker 2: It's awkward Tuesday phone call. Cool people let their friends

195
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 2: date their exes, and we're about to find out if

196
00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:00,040
Speaker 2: Monica's friend is cool. Yes, I mean, I know that

197
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 2: it's not the popular opinion in the room right now,

198
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,440
Speaker 2: but you know what, we voiced what we needed to

199
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 2: say that some of us aren't one hundred percent okay

200
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:14,440
Speaker 2: with this question being asked of using voice that I'm

201
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 2: on the fence. But now we're moving on to the

202
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 2: help portion of this call. That's our jobs where we

203
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:23,840
Speaker 2: give our advice on what Monica should do here. So, Brooke,

204
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 2: what's your add.

205
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:26,440
Speaker 3: To do that she's doing it the right way?

206
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 1: I will say that if you're going to do it now, listen, Monica,

207
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 1: this is what I think you need to do, is

208
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 1: you need to talk your friend up does that make sense? Okay,

209
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 1: So you need to maybe speak on how easy it

210
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 1: is for her to get a man, and how charismatic

211
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 1: and beautiful she is, and how maybe it's not quite

212
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:50,200
Speaker 1: as easy for you. Oh, this a strategy.

213
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,080
Speaker 3: It's kind of almost a sympathy card.

214
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:55,439
Speaker 1: You're playing, yeah, and that you have this really great option,

215
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 1: but there's one kind of hurdle with it, and you

216
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 1: need her support.

217
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 2: Paint her with the pathetic brush. I mean, I have

218
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:13,119
Speaker 2: no option. Okay, can you make yourself seem pathetic, Monica? Okay,

219
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:14,720
Speaker 2: that's good, Jose what's your advice?

220
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 6: And this is his distraction actually works best. So there's

221
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 6: another guy that she's interested in. Get her focused on

222
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 6: that person that he thoughts about, someone new.

223
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:27,520
Speaker 2: I feel like.

224
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 1: Talking to himself because he's easily distracted.

225
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:33,959
Speaker 3: She's like, what would I do if I was?

226
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,719
Speaker 2: It's like a little magic act illusion, like, oh, look

227
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:38,200
Speaker 2: over here, you won't see what's going on over there.

228
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 2: WHI I'm looking up with your ac What do you

229
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 2: think about that? Monica?

230
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,120
Speaker 5: That works for me? I can do that.

231
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 2: Okay. So we've got a little bit of compliments, some

232
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 2: self deprecation, and some distraction thrown into them up as

233
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 2: much as you can. What's your friend's name? By the way, Monica,

234
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 2: her name is Erin.

235
00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 1: And if Erin doesn't give her blessing on this, well

236
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 1: used to, We'll go through and date.

237
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 2: Her ex that's the question.

238
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 5: I really don't think that I could. I just hope

239
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,080
Speaker 5: that she sees it from my perspective and it's her

240
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 5: blessing your good.

241
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 2: Friends, yes, and if she says no, we will come

242
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 2: after her herd on your that's Brooks promise. So let's die. Wow,

00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 2: drama that we didn't even know about, honestly.

319
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 1: Honestly, and I'm shocked that you didn't give her your blessing.

320
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 4: You're what are you?

321
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 5: Guys?

322
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean I wouldn't either.

323
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 5: I wouldn't give anything.

324
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:21,880
Speaker 1: He's a gross dude, like you don't care about.

325
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 2: He said, that's a theory. He doesn't believe that he

326
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 2: did remember that.

327
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 4: You know what, whatever, If Monica wants to date Ben

328
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 4: and be cheated on and have a miserable life, then

329
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 4: go ahead. I don't even try anyone looking.

330
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 3: That's the best she's gonna get.

331
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a half blessing. So it's like a sarcastic one. Look,

332
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 2: the whole reason that Monica reached out to a radio

333
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 2: show for this is because she understands that it breaks

334
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 2: some rules of friendship and she's going to be crossing

335
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 2: some boundaries. She didn't want to do that without like

336
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 2: going through it the right way and asking your permission.

337
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 5: I think you need a pick.

338
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 4: I think you just need to pick me or him.

339
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 3: No, don't do that. Aaron, did you hear her like, listen,

340
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 3: you have every guy is willing to make out with you.

341
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,639
Speaker 3: It sounds like, which is great. Good on you, Aaron.

342
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 3: Monica needs somebody.

343
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,119
Speaker 1: And maybe maybe just because this guy cheated on you,

344
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:15,920
Speaker 1: that doesn't mean that he's going to have a bad

345
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 1: relationship with Monica.

346
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 2: Probably it's funny that Brook's so on board now with this.

347
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,360
Speaker 3: To date the ex, Monica is doing the right thing.

348
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 5: This is the last time that I'm going to act

349
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 5: like our friendship is more important than any of that.

350
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,240
Speaker 5: But I'm asking you one last time.

351
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,280
Speaker 2: Think about you kissing her brother in that hospital back to.

352
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:41,680
Speaker 3: The hospital part. I have a lot of questions about well,

353
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 3: I don't know that we have time.

354
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 2: I don't think we have time to Aaron, what do

355
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 2: you say? Are you willing to give your blessing to Monica?

356
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,760
Speaker 2: To date your ex is just a lot right now?

357
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:53,520
Speaker 4: I will think about it.

358
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 2: The answer could be it's fair, it's fair, But the

359
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 2: at least she's willing to mull it over and come

360
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 2: back with a decision like that's better than.

361
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 1: We could have accept I think it's going to be

362
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 1: texting the other friends in a group message.

363
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 2: Without girls who will not believe what Monica asked me.

364
00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 5: Oh my god, Aaron, please don't do that.

365
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:18,399
Speaker 4: I'll get back to you.

366
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 1: I just okay, Just remember you don't want this guy, right,

367
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 1: So who cares?

368
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,719
Speaker 2: Really, really good effort.

369
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 5: Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

370
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 2: We need to try to get an update from these

371
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 2: two and find out if Aaron ever gives Monica her blessing. Yeah,

372
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,600
Speaker 2: because our producer has reached out to try and figure

373
00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 2: out if there's been any update. No response yet, so

374
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,720
Speaker 2: could still be mulling things over or Monica may have

375
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:52,639
Speaker 2: already run off to Thailand with the X.

376
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 4: See.

377
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 1: I think you contacted the wrong person. We need to

378
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,640
Speaker 1: do have contacted Ben. Oh, we don't have his obviously,

379
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 1: the reliable ex who said he didn't cheat.

380
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,639
Speaker 3: Yes, I trust that that guy.

381
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 2: Says, because Aaron has every right to say no. I

382
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:09,159
Speaker 2: don't feel comfortable with you doing that. It's too weird

383
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:12,119
Speaker 2: for me. But if she says yes and this relationship

384
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,240
Speaker 2: actually works out, just think of the material she'll have

385
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 2: for the made of Honor speech.

386
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:18,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, let me show you how they met and that

387
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:19,719
Speaker 6: she plays our audio.

388
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:23,359
Speaker 2: Oh, there's so much potential. But we'll try and keep

389
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:25,680
Speaker 2: you updated on what happens there. But if you ever

390

394
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:36,440
