1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:06,680
Speaker 1: You always hear people say I'll do anything for my friends. Yeah,

2
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:12,000
Speaker 1: but honestly, would you yes anything anything? Would you lie

3
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:15,360
Speaker 1: to a judge for them under oath? Not under oath? Jab? Well,

4
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 1: maybe you get away with that. Would you let them

5
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 1: practice tattooing on your baby's lower back? There's a cute

6
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 1: little tramp stamp that says made in the back seat.

7
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:33,519
Speaker 1: That's adorable. No, okay, so there is a limit, And

8
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:35,879
Speaker 1: one of our listeners is definitely going to push the

9
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:38,920
Speaker 1: limits today because she needs to ask her friend a

10
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 1: very controversial question that could easily throw a wrench into

11
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:48,240
Speaker 1: their relationship. But she has to try because if she doesn't,

12
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 1: she might regret it for the rest of her life.

13
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 1: Who you're gonna hear it in your brand new awkward

14
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 1: Tuesday phone call? It's coming up next, It's awkward Tuesday.

15
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 1: It's awkward Tuesday photo. What are the unspoken rules of friendship? Oh,

16
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:13,679
Speaker 1: nobody else, not those ones. That's a different set, you know,

17
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 1: rules like you have to hate the same people as

18
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:21,479
Speaker 1: I do, never tag me in any ugly photos.

19
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:24,840
Speaker 2: You just don't post him to begin with. If you're

20
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 2: a good friend, that.

21
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 1: Too, And also before any night out we have to

22
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: practice kissing on each other for at least twenty minutes.

23
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 2: Is why we never go out with you.

24
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 1: Friends do just some of the sacred rules that must

25
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 1: never be broken. But today one of our listeners wants

26
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 1: to violate one of the holy laws of friendship, and

27
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 1: she needs our help to do it. Her name is Monica. Monica,

28
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 1: please tell me you're not breaking the kissing rule.

29
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 3: Isn't rule?

30
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 4: Thank god?

31
00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, we're not friends yet, were No. Maybe by

32
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: the end of this call, we'll get there. Okay, but first,

33
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: let's try to help you out with your situation. What's

34
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 1: going on in your life that made you email the

35
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 1: show for help?

36
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 3: Well, like you said, I do need to break an

37
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 3: unspoken rule.

38
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 2: I'm curious about.

39
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 1: This already.

40
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,359
Speaker 2: Is that unflattering picture thing? Is that? What it is?

41
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 3: I have a feeling it's not No, I want to

42
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 3: date my friends.

43
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 2: Actually, oh god, there's so many men out there.

44
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,519
Speaker 1: Why they canes?

45
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 2: It's clearly not good. Why would you want to do that?

46
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 3: Well, okay, so they only am my defense, they only

47
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 3: dated for like a year?

48
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 4: What weeks?

49
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 1: Was it?

50
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 2: In high school?

51
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 1: They dated?

52
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 2: That might be the only time.

53
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 3: It's like, oh, that's a good okay, old, No, okay,

54
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 3: they spoke up like a year ago.

55
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 1: Enough time, isn't it.

56
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 5: No, No, you don't ever date your friends. It's just

57
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 5: what you.

58
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:02,640
Speaker 2: Just you just don't.

59
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 1: But if it's been forty years and you're in the

60
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:06,680
Speaker 1: retirement home together.

61
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 2: I mean, you're not going to be You're not gonna

62
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 2: be friends anymore.

63
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know what I mean.

64
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,119
Speaker 1: But remember this is an awkward Tuesday phone call. We're

65
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: here to help, not to judge a right, right, that's

66
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 1: what If that's what Monica wants to do, we need

67
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:23,920
Speaker 1: to be there lifting her up.

68
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:25,400
Speaker 2: I would rather talk her out of it.

69
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: I can. I doubt that that's that's even possible, Monica.

70
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: So tell us why do you want to date him?

71
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 3: I mean, okay, so first of all, his name is Ben. Okay,

72
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 3: we just have like this, Bob, and I don't want

73
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 3: to just say okay because he dated my friend that

74
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 3: we shouldn't explore this thing.

75
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 1: Care Okay, keep an open mind, Brook, whatever you say.

76
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 5: Maybe your friend isn't that close with you, like, maybe

77
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 5: it's like a friend, like a coworker.

78
00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: I said, keep an open nmeas their friendship.

79
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 7: That's a positive to me in the situation if it's

80
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 7: best friend in the whole.

81
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, well actually we are pretty close.

82
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 1: Okay, about to be even closer possible.

83
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 6: I feel like this happens in any friend group, Like

84
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,160
Speaker 6: if you get along with your friends, you tend to.

85
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 2: It's like a family member. You just put a no go.

86
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: Well, we're moving forward from this. Is there something that

87
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 1: made you feel like this connection was possible? Like, was

88
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 1: there a moment that stood out to you?

89
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:33,279
Speaker 6: Yeah?

90
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,919
Speaker 3: I mean so we were like outside hanging out or whatever,

91
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 3: and while we were talking, like, we had like one

92
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 3: of those beer ping pong things or whatever, and it

93
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 3: bounced off my forehead and he did the dumb thing

94
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 3: where he like bent over and kissed the spot where

95
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 3: it hits to make it feel better.

96
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 1: And I love, Oh he's got powers.

97
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 2: He made the first move.

98
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 3: I mean kind of, you know, it's just like a.

99
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,160
Speaker 5: Bob okay, can I I asked, before we get too

100
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 5: far down the road, why did they break up?

101
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 3: I mean, there are series out there, but I don't

102
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 3: know exactly what happened, you know.

103
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 1: Okay, So besides the beer pong forehead kiss, that was

104
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 1: completely medicinal for healing purposes, has anything else happened between

105
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 1: you and the ex?

106
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 3: I mean, we've just been texting a lot since that night.

107
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 3: Oh talks around the idea of us. We've been hanging out.

108
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 1: Okay. Does your friends know anything about this, that this

109
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 1: is going on?

110
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 3: She does not, Okay, and I mean that that's the

111
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 3: whole thing. That's why I want to call my friend

112
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 3: about this. We haven't done anything. I kind of want

113
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,039
Speaker 3: to get her permission to move forward.

114
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,159
Speaker 2: I mean, not a great move, but you're doing it

115
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 2: in the right way. Yeah, so you should be proud

116
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 2: of yourselves.

117
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 1: Most people wouldn't even ask permission, They would just go

118
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,159
Speaker 1: right forward, wouldn't do it in the first place.

119
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 7: Yes, well, again, if you want to keep the friendship, yeah, yeah,

120
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 7: you know, you got to.

121
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:55,840
Speaker 2: Decide what's more.

122
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 6: Almost like if I wanted to steal from Brook, but

123
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,840
Speaker 6: I asked first, like, can I take twenty bucks out

124
00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 6: your pocket at some point today?

125
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:02,839
Speaker 3: No?

126
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:07,599
Speaker 2: But like that I asked, I guess that's an analogy

127
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 2: we could use.

128
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 5: So you want to give a twenty bucks or no,

129
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:14,160
Speaker 5: nobody's getting you can't have.

130
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:20,839
Speaker 2: My exes though, to go around.

131
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 1: Okay, So it's okay when you're in high school or

132
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 1: when you're super old, but right now, gotcha? So why

133
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 1: did you reach out to our show for help?

134
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:32,159
Speaker 8: Like?

135
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 1: What are you looking to get from us?

136
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 3: Well, I'm terrible at confrontation. I would rather just avoid it.

137
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,479
Speaker 3: But I'm really hoping it doesn't come to any confrontation.

138
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 3: I hope that I come up with some valid points.

139
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,159
Speaker 3: You guys help me, And she's just like, sure, go

140
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 3: for it.

141
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 2: Okay, you know what.

142
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 6: That wouldn't be the best if she was like disgusted

143
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,480
Speaker 6: with him. I could see it be like, oh, that

144
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 6: guy's awful. Girl, go ahead, you're gonna find out real quick.

145
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 1: Like I could see it.

146
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 5: Yes, I mean because of the vibe from her important

147
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:01,719
Speaker 5: how does she feel about her ex?

148
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 3: Do you know we haven't talked about him in a while.

149
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 3: I honestly don't know where she is with it.

150
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 8: So I was going to say, usually ify don't talk

151
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 8: about him.

152
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 1: I have a feeling the total opposite's going to happen,

153
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 1: and she's not only going to okay it, she's going

154
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 1: to be one hundred percent supportive.

155
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 2: He's been in a friendship.

156
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: Have you not really how this goes? When we come

157
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: back and call your friend Aaron and asked permission to

158
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 1: date her ex boyfriend. We're going to do it with

159
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 1: your awkward Tuesday phone call right after this. It's awkward.

160
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 2: It's Tuesday.

161
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 1: It's awkward Tuesday phone call. Cool people let their friends

162
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 1: date their exes, and we're about to find out if

163
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 1: Monica's friend is cool. Yes, I mean, I know that's

164
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 1: not the popular opinion in the room right now, but

165
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 1: you know what, we voiced what we needed to say

166
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 1: that some of us aren't one hundred per sent. Okay

167
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 1: with this question being asked voice, I'm on the fence.

168
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 1: But now we're moving on to the help portion of

169
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 1: this call. That's our jobs where we give our advice

170
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: on what Monica should do here, So.

171
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 2: Brooke to do that, she's doing it the right way.

172
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 5: I will say that if you're going to do it now, listen, Monica,

173
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 5: this is what I think you need to do.

174
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 2: Is you need to talk your friend up. Does that

175
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 2: make sense?

176
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 7: Okay, So you need to maybe speak on how easy

177
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 7: it is for her to get a man, and how

178
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:36,400
Speaker 7: charismatic and beautiful she is, and how maybe it's not

179
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 7: quite as easy for you. Oh, A strategy.

180
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 2: It's kind of almost a sympathy.

181
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 5: Card you're playing, yeah, and that you have this really

182
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 5: great option, but there's one kind of hurdle with it,

183
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 5: and you need her support.

184
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 1: Paint her with the pathetic brush.

185
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 2: I mean, I have no option.

186
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 1: Okay, can you make yourself seem pathetic? Monica my best? Okay,

187
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 1: that's good, Jose what's your advice?

188
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 6: And this is his distraction actually works best. So there's

189
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 6: another guy that she's interested in. Get her focused on

190
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:18,680
Speaker 6: that person that way, she said, he thoughts about someone new.

191
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:23,679
Speaker 2: I feel like talking to himself because he's easily distracted.

192
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,440
Speaker 2: He's like, what would I do if I was Fred?

193
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 1: It's like a little magic act illusion, like, oh look

194
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 1: over here, you won't see what's going on over there

195
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 1: while I'm walking up with your ax. What do you

196
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 1: think about that? Monica?

197
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 3: That works for me? I can do that.

198
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 1: Okay. So we've got a little bit of compliments, some

199
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:43,479
Speaker 1: self deprecation, and some distraction thrown into.

200
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 6: Them up as much as you can.

201
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 1: What's your friend's name? By the way, Monica, her name

202
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 1: is Erin.

203
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 5: And if Erin doesn't give her blessing on this, will

204
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 5: you still go through and date her ex?

205
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 1: That's the question.

206
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 3: I really don't think that I could. I just hope

207
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,560
Speaker 3: that she sees it from my perspective. It's a blessing

208
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 3: your good.

209
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:08,520

Speaker 3: asking you if you be okay with it, and that's

273
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:09,920

274
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:14,440

275
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 3: kissed my brother.

276
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 4: Oh no, he was in the hospital. That doesn't count

277
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 4: at all. That rule I didn't know.

278
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 1: The hospital doesn't count. It's fun. I don't need to

279
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 1: have an emergency right now.

280
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:35,560

00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 1: called Broke and Jeffrey in the morning.

283
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 4: Why Why am I on the radio?

284
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:48,960
Speaker 1: This is very very tea worthy. There's a lot of

285
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 1: drama going on between you and your friend Monica trying

286
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 1: to help drama that we didn't even know about, honestly, honestly, and.

287
00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 2: I'm shocked that you didn't give her your blessing.

288
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 4: You're what are you?

289
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 2: Guys?

290
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 8: I mean, I mean I wouldn't either.

291
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 2: I wouldn't give anither.

292
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 7: D He's a gross dude, Like you don't care about

293
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 7: left he.

294
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 1: Said, that's a theory. He doesn't believe that. He remember that.

295
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 8: You know what, whatever, If Monica wants to date Ben

296
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 8: and be cheated on and have a.

297
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,000
Speaker 4: Miserable life, then go ahead. I don't even care anymore.

298
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 2: Looking, that's the best she's gonna get.

299
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a half blessing. So it's like a sarcastic one.

300
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 6: Look.

301
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 1: The whole reason that Monica reached out to a radio

302
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 1: show for this is because she understands that it breaks

303
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 1: some rules of friendship and she's going to be crossing

304
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 1: some boundaries. She didn't want to do that without like

305
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 1: going through it the right way and asking your permission.

306
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 3: I think you need a pick.

307
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 4: I think you just need to pick me or him.

308
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 5: No, no, don't do that, Aaron, did you hear her?

309
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 2: Like, listen, you have every guy is willing to make

310
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 2: out with you. It sounds like, which is great.

311
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 5: Good on you, Aaron, Monica needs somebody and maybe maybe

312
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 5: just because this guy cheated on you, that doesn't mean

313
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 5: that he's going to be have a bad relationship with Monica.

314
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 1: It's funny that Brook's so on board now with this

315
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 1: to date the ex.

316
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 2: Monica's doing the right thing.

317
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 3: This is the last time that I'm going to act

318
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 3: like our friendship is more important than any of that.

319
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,240
Speaker 3: But I'm asking you one last time.

320
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 1: Think about you kissing her brother in that hospital.

321
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,720
Speaker 2: Back to the hospital part. I have a lot of

322
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:34,920
Speaker 2: questions about well, I don't know that we have time.

323
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 1: I don't think we have time to Aaron, what do

324
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 1: you say? Are you willing to give your blessing to

325
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 1: Monica to date your ex?

326
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 7: This is just a.

327
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 4: Lot right now. I will think about it.

328
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 1: The answer could be it's fair, it's fair, But the

329
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 1: at least she's willing to mull it over and come

330
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 1: back with a decision like that's better than we could.

331
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 2: Have accept I think it's going to be texting the

332
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 2: other friends in a group message without.

333
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 1: Girls. He will not believe what Monica asked me.

334
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:09,200
Speaker 3: Oh my god, Aaron, please don't do that. Just tell no,

335
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 3: I'll get back to you.

336
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 5: I just okay, Just remember you don't want this guy, right,

337
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:20,160
Speaker 5: So who cares?

338
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:21,280
Speaker 1: Really, really, good.

339
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 2: Effort Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

340
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 1: We need to try to get an update from these

341
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 1: two and find out if Aaron ever gives Monica her blessing. Yeah,

342
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 1: because our producer has reached out to try and figure

343
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,840
Speaker 1: out if there's been any update. No response yet, so

344
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 1: could still be mulling things over, or Monica may have

345
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 1: already run off to Thailand with the X.

346
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:46,920
Speaker 2: See, I think you contacted the wrong person. We need

347
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:48,720
Speaker 2: to do have contacted Ben Oh.

348
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 7: Yeah, we don't have his obviously, the reliable X who

349
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:53,040
Speaker 7: said he didn't cheat.

350
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:56,120
Speaker 2: Yes, trust that guy says.

351
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 1: Because Aaron has every right to say no. I don't

352
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:01,520
Speaker 1: feel comfortable with you doing that. It's too weird for me.

353
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,960
Speaker 1: But if she says yes and this relationship actually works out,

354
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 1: just think of the material she'll have for the made

355
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:07,399
Speaker 1: of Honor speech.

356
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, let me show you how they met and then

357
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:11,760
Speaker 6: she plays our audio.

358
