There was no anything inside those eyes.
They turned black.
It scared the hell out of me.
Evil, wake up.
I'm the one that saw the murder take place by Crevette and DePippo.
Anthony DePippo showed no signs of remorse,
appearing unfazed after being sentenced to the maximum.
I said I'm not guilty.
I'll take it to the grief.

Every family has its secrets.
But what happens when you discover that your dad has been living a double life?
That is not the look of an innocent man.
Is everyone lying to me about who they are?
I felt such desperation.
I felt it was what I had to do.

Hey, it's Brigh and Jeffrey in the morning.
And I am so excited for today's show because of what you're doing at the World Cup.
Oh, see, I'm excited because of Brooke breaks you up.
No, I'm not excited for that segment.
I was hoping people would just fast forward through that part.
Yeah, no, no, no.
No, our city that we broadcast from is a host city for the World Cup.
And it has been such a crazy, cool, exciting time for all of us here.
So Jose and Alexis went down there and just asked people what you're doing at the World Cup.
So we're going to play that.
audio, which is so fun.
Yeah.
We do have the Brooke Breaks You Up segment.
So good.
It'll be your highlight, probably.
It's the most uncomfortable I've ever been.
So good.
So the full hour right now, it's for you.
Sit back, enjoy.
Enjoy the show.
There's something weird going on with our bodies.
It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
It's not just me because that burning thing is like really starting to bug me.
Why do you guys always group us into your stuff?
Yeah.
This is all people.
And do not look down.
Do not look at your body right now.
You're going to freak.
No, bro, don't look.
Don't look.
Anything you tell me not to do is what I'm going to do.
What is that?
Because researchers have just discovered that for all people,
everywhere on earth, our bodies have a natural tendency to walk in a counterclockwise
direction.
Really?
Why are we walking in circles, Jeff?
After years of study, reviewing hundreds of hours of video.
footage, scientists notice people
in crowds always drift
to the left when walking.
And not just the drunk ones either.
All of them. They have tested
this again and again with
individuals, with groups,
even in different cultures around the world.
It does not matter. Both
men and women have a strong
left turn bias.
I hate when we do these things, because this
is going to be something that I think about now
every time I walk anywhere.
And I can't get it, won't get it out of my head.
And it's not explained by if you're right-handed or right-footed or alt-right.
Everybody naturally drifts to the left.
And the only group that leans even harder left are children.
What?
Meaning we've had it from birth.
Wow.
Somebody's been studying that.
Scientists cannot figure out why, but it could be the reason that runners in track, Alexis, go counterclockwise.
Did you realize that?
You're supposed to be amazed right now.
I didn't know.
You run on the left so you run the least distance.
There's also that.
Oh.
I didn't understand that.
I don't know.
She's died.
We trust you.
It makes sense in there.
Fun fact, the modern Olympics originally had athletes running clockwise
around the track.
But everybody was confused.
And they switched it in 1913 because all the athletes said running to the right felt unnatural.
Weird.
So.
This is interesting.
I wonder why.
Is it like a magnetic field thing?
I don't know.
I can't explain it.
Dude, the left side.
Just the.
best side. Yeah, but no answers for the burning
thing. No. We have to Google that
on the road. Good news is nothing
feels unnatural about getting electrocuted
in the throat for the shot collar
question of the day each and every
morning. So digital Jake,
let's do what comes natural.
Uh, what?
Well, Father's Day weekend is
almost here. Yay, I'm going to be with my
dad. It's the glorious
24-hour period where socks
and sandals are chic,
grilled meats are holy.
And dad jokes are given their own Netflix comedy special.
That's right.
All right.
I used to play piano by ear, but now I use my hands.
Encore.
And whether your dad's a napping pro, a crypto bro, or just really into lawn care,
it's time to celebrate the men who got lucky with our moms during a special...
That's a way to put it.
During a special Rad to Be Dad edition of...
Plenty of 20.
Now, you'll say number one through 20,
and I'll give you a multiple-choice trivia question about fathers.
You just need to think like a dad and give me the right answer,
and you can keep playing my game.
We'll start with the woman who always had a crush on the dad from Hannah Montana.
That's Alex.
Wow, you know him by first and middle name.
It's the mullet, huh?
When I was like 10 watching the show.
11.
Number 11.
Alexis, according to.
to a survey, what's the number one
Father's Day gift? Dads say
they actually want.
Is it a new grill?
Time alone, a sleeve
of golf balls, or
legally suspending child support
payments until Christmas.
Oh my gosh. That would make a lot of dads out there
are happy. Some of them
weren't just paying it.
I feel like time alone's a mom thing
because they're... I agree.
So, I mean, why not grill?
It's a nice big gift though.
Going for a new grill.
That's incorrect.
I have time alone.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
My dad would be like, I just want all of my children with me on my life.
Well, he says that now is when he has adult children.
Well, we don't live on.
No.
Yeah.
All right, Brooke, it's your turn 11's off the board.
Give me 15.
Number 15.
According to polling, what household chore to dads most often claim they're the best at.
Oh, yeah.
Is it grilling?
Mm-hmm.
Is it lawn care?
Is it taking out the trash
Or is it scratching themselves
Okay, two of those aren't chores
By the way
Why, he's scratching my body's a chore
I mean, you know what's interesting
Is my husband definitely does the trash
And the lawn care
It's like his
Take pride in it like
I don't know about the trash
But he knows the lawn
He knows when the recycling is supposed to go out
Which is nice
Yeah, yeah
But he has so much pride in his lawn
Give me lawn care
Yeah
Lawn care is correct.
47% of dads say that's what they're good at.
All right, Jose, it's your turn.
11 and 15 are off the board.
Let's go 12.
We're talking Father's Day trivia for Father's Day this weekend.
Jose, which animal is famous because the fathers carry and give birth to the babies?
Is it a penguin, a seahorse, an otter, or a kangaroo?
Aw, well, kangaroos hold the babies in their pouches.
They actually started a fetus.
They're like the size of a nickel in the pouch, and then they grow.
Why do you know so much about kangaroo wound?
I know a lot about animals, Jane.
Okay.
I love the animals.
And that's why I could break all the rest of them down, but I will say, easy, peasy,
give me seahorse.
Yeah, there it is.
Correct.
Do that work, Seahorse, Daddy?
Do you have any womb facts about the seahorse, Jose?
I don't know how many, but it's got to be at least a thousand little seahorses squirt out.
Have you seen the birth?
Isn't it like eggs?
Pulling it up on YouTube for after the break.
Let's go.
More importantly, do seahorses take pride in their lawn care too?
I hope.
The algae.
I'll have to watch some live births after this to get my facts right for Brooke.
Let's all do that.
All right, Jeffrey, 11, 12, and 15 are off the board.
Number one.
Number one.
If you get this right, Alexis is going to get shocked.
She's the only one who's gotten something wrong so far.
Jeffrey, in the movie Finding Nemo, what type of fish is Nemo's dad?
Marlon.
Is he an angel fish?
He's a sweet dad.
Is he a clownfish?
I mean, he loses his kid.
Is he a surgeon fish?
Or is he a Marlin?
Marlin the Marlin.
Sorry if I just gave that away.
That makes so much sense.
I never put that together.
Marlin is a fish.
Oh.
I know for a fact he's not a Marlin.
So let's remove that one.
What were the other options?
I'm sorry?
Angel, clown, or surgeon fish?
Okay.
Nemo is a clownfish.
And unless there was some mix-up at the fish
hospital with the babies there.
Families come in all different ways, Jeff.
In all different forms.
You're saying he could have been adopted from a third-willed ocean.
Is that what you're saying?
Oh, a different seed.
But I'm going to go with clownfish just as Nemo was.
He says Nemo and his dad are the same type of fish.
He's absolutely right.
After that, that means Alexis has lost today's plenty of 20.
Alexis doesn't know daddies like the rest of us do, so she's going to be getting
shocked while singing Start Spreading the News by Frank Sinatra because Dad's
Love Some Frank.
Oh, yeah.
I was like, why.
Start spreading the news.
Oh, I'm leaving today.
Yes.
Leave now.
Spread it.
I'm not going to New York and hearing that.
That was your shock collar question of the day.
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
The hardest part of.
of working out is just convincing yourself to actually do it each day.
Seriously.
And a lot of people have tricks that they like to use.
Like Alexis watches Love Island while she runs.
Brooke has her kids dangle a Snickers bar in front of her on the Peloton.
Keep her motivated.
That's right.
And Jose arrives late to work just so that he can sprint through the doors into the office.
Hey, way to go.
Get that cardio in.
But one of our listeners says he's found his own secret.
motivation. That's been getting him to the gym for months now.
Oh, good for him. But he's too embarrassed to tell anyone what, or should I say who is inspiring him to go there.
Luckily, we get to hear it in a brand new mass speaker coming up right now.
You don't know me.
A confession I can't take back.
I am.
The masked speaker.
Text to 78592 says, I have an irrational.
hatred of people who balance
rocks in nature.
Oh, I'm
with you.
Unless it's to mark a trail, you don't
do it. Oh, to mark a trail.
They say, I have no remorse
toppling those stupid stacks,
but I am low-key afraid to be spotted
and clubbed down by some violent
Zen Buddhists.
Dude, they're rock karens is what they're called.
Take it down. There's a reason
why they're called a Karen, okay?
We promise not to club you down.
after you confess your secrets here on the mass speaker.
It just goes against our violent Zen Buddhist ways.
And we've got a guy on the phone right now who's chosen Travis as his fake name.
So Travis, welcome to our nonviolent temple of honesty.
How you doing?
Hey, guys, what's going on?
Are you feeling balanced?
Not so much, no.
No?
Well, maybe you'll feel better after you get whatever's off your chest because the voice changer is on.
You are the mass speaker.
Whenever you're ready, let's hear your confession.
All right, so I switched gyms about a year ago.
They joined a more upscale one and it cost more money.
But honestly, I feel like it's really nice.
It's way quieter.
It's worth the money.
Okay.
And maybe on the second or third day that I was there,
I was on the treadmill and I noticed, um, I, sorry.
It's okay.
It's okay.
Okay.
I mean, collect yourself.
I feel weird.
telling this, but I
noticed this guy
working out, lifting weights in front
of me in the mirror.
Okay. To be clear,
I am straight. It doesn't
matter, man. You can appreciate
a beautiful physique on any
gender. My husband is
obsessed with men's calves.
Oh, yeah.
He complimented my calves once. Yeah,
because he has really skinny ones.
And so all he could do, like, he'll be like,
we'll walk somewhere and he's like, oh my God,
Brooke, look at that guys.
You know a beautiful.
person when you see the moon?
I mean, he's got more of the great cast.
Yeah.
Good for this guy.
This dude was gorgeous.
Gorgeous.
I've never seen a person like this in my life.
It's like a statue that came alive.
Can you tell me what Jim you're out of?
Yeah, can you get like a photo in secret?
Maybe texting into the show.
Sounds like Brooke could afford the woman.
I need a visual photo.
I mean, I don't think you need to be embarrassed by that man.
No, I mean, this dude looked like a Marvel character.
Like, straight.
up, movie star handsome, every one of his muscles were just stupidly shredded.
Yeah.
Just in awe.
Like, dude, this guy is...
Yeah, no, I get that a lot, bro.
It's fine.
What gym do you go to?
An upscale one.
It wasn't, Jeff.
I used to work at this gym, so...
I just found myself mesmerized and, like, staring at him, lifting those weights, like,
perfect form, and I just couldn't look away.
And over the next few weeks, I just tend to...
I kept seeing him at the gym and every time I had the same reaction.
So then you started wearing shorter shorts?
No, I'd see him doing like shirtless pull-ups with like a 50-pound weight on his legs.
Oh my God.
I'm like, how?
I was like, I've never thought this way about a dude before.
Have you thought about addressing it and saying, excuse me, please put some clothes on, sir?
I'm imagining the whole gym is looking at him at this point.
Yeah.
Are there a lot of people with the jam or is it just you two?
No, I mean, there's plenty of people there.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah.
But it feels like it's just the two of you.
If you want to break the trance, you just need to go talk to him for a minute because usually if they're that pretty.
Yeah, then he's like, how are you doing?
Oh, wait, never mind.
That's a good question.
Have you ever thought about introducing yourself or saying anything?
I mean, I don't know what I would introduce myself about.
Like, hey, I'm a short, flabby fat guy.
Why should you do pull-ups and I think you're great?
Well, then ask him if he has any tips for you.
Yeah, I'm sure.
Hey, can you teach me how to get a body like yours?
Because that guy has to live there.
Yeah, I like to look like that.
I don't know.
Like, I just, I can't ruin the...
The mystery, the fantasy.
It's so funny.
When this happens to a guy, it's like a big secret.
And a girl, this is, like, every day at a Pilates' class ever.
You look around the room and it's like 20 beautiful women.
with great bodies.
And I'm always like, look at the butt on that one.
Yeah, exactly me too.
How does she have a butt like that?
But you like keeping him like your secret man crush at the gym?
Yeah, like I started keeping which days and times he works out.
Oh, you notice like, you know, he's always there on Thursday.
Okay, honey, you're turning into a stalker.
But in a sweet kind of way?
I mean, we've never spoken to each other.
I mean, we've just nodded at each other in the mirror.
But now it's a point where I'm, like, going to the gym and he's not there, and I'm disappointed.
I'm like, he's a bad workout day.
I feel like you need to ask him to hang out with you, like to go get a juice or something, you know?
Go get a juice.
What does that even?
That is not a line that guys give to each other.
Like, hey, you want to go get a protein shake with me?
He's a fancy gym.
They sure got one in there.
Yeah, they got a juice bar.
Would you like some kombucha?
See, now we're perfect.
We're practicing.
Let's take our shirts off and drink it together.
You may actually feel the same about you.
What if he's like, oh, man, I miss that guy today.
I don't know.
I mean, but my personal friends have noticed that I'm always going to the gym at these specific times.
And they're like, dude, they're like a girl that's at the gym.
Do you have a gym crush?
And I'm like...
Kind of.
No.
He shouldn't be a secret.
Get a stealthy photo and show everybody.
They'll understand.
They'll take stealthy picks at the gym.
Yeah, yeah.
Your whole friend group will be in love with him.
I, yeah, I don't know about that.
Does it feel better, though, to at least come out and confess?
Yeah.
I did just take a deep breath, so yeah.
Okay.
All right.
Well, I hope he's there for you today.
Yeah.
He comes to the gym at 2 o'clock tomorrow.
All right.
We'll be ready for the update.
Text in my calendar as well.
Text in 7-8-5-9.
If you have a confession you've been holding on to, we'll hide your identity, mask your voice, and make you our next mask speaker.
Phone taps coming up right after this.
It's Brooklyn Jeffrey in the morning.
Time for today's prank call.
Okay.
And this lady we're reaching out to was set up by her coworker who told us she's extremely frustrated because she hasn't been able to get into her work email for two days.
Oh my gosh.
Nobody in IT has been able to help her.
Oh, looks like you can't work.
Better go home.
She's requested a meeting with the tech supervisor.
The person in charge.
So I think it's perfect.
That person is Jose Belongis.
Yeah.
I'm going to help.
I believe should be in charge of our own IT department.
That's right.
Jeff,
thank you.
Let's see how he does in your phone tap right now.
Brooke and Jeffrey's phone taps on the 20s.
Hello?
Hey, Aaron.
This is Dart from the IT department.
Oh, hey.
Hi, good morning.
Is it Dart?
Yeah, it's Dart.
Good morning.
I'm the senior supervisor down here.
I heard you were having some issues with your computer.
Yeah.
First of all, sorry right off the back because I'm super frustrated already coming into this,
and I know it's not your fault.
Oh, I know.
I've heard a few of my underlings weren't able to give you any help, huh?
I mean, yeah.
No one has been, yeah, frustrating.
Yeah, no one's been helpful.
Absolutely no one.
I mean, I don't understand how you could call yourself the IT department.
I don't mean to cut you off.
This is completely just.
justified your frustration. Can you just tell us what was happening that's like causing the situation?
Sure. I'll walk through the gun. I'll stop it now so many times, but I just just one more.
You're just going to need one more time. I'm trying to tell you, but you keep talking over me.
So if you could just stop talking for a moment. Hey, hey, hey, I am listening.
I'm just telling me I'm listening. So that's why. All right, you go.
I simply want to get into my email and it has locked me out and you have a this two-part
authentication process.
Say no more.
Okay.
Again, I am the senior IT supervisor.
Great.
I'm going to fix this right now.
Great.
Okay.
So just give me a second.
How do you fix a double authentication?
Wait, are you looking it up?
Are you Googling it?
Hold on.
I'll be right with you, okay?
Okay.
Authentica.
Issue.
Excuse me, Aaron.
What's the operating system that you're using?
I'm sorry, you mean like Windows?
Like everyone else is using?
Wait, wait, what?
How are you asking me that?
Oh, you have Windows.
Duh.
I got it.
I got it.
Hold on.
How do you fix a double authentication?
Are you seriously?
Windows computer.
Okay.
Who is above you?
No, I'm the guy.
I'm the top of the pyramid.
I earned the spot, and that's why we're taking care of you today.
Okay, so if you are this senior supervisor, what are you doing right now?
It sounds like you are using chat GPT to figure us out.
I can do that on my own.
Did you say chat GPT?
That is funny.
Like, I'm going to deal with your wildly absurd, you know, accusation and like just
Okay, hold on just a second.
Wait.
There's nothing funny about this.
Oh, I know.
Believe me.
I keep misspelling.
How do I deflect when someone accuses me aggressively?
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Okay, you know what?
You know what?
This is way too much.
Hold on.
Wait a second.
It's thinking.
I mean, I'm thinking.
I hear what you're doing.
Right?
I hear you're talking out loud.
I'm helping you.
Look, as God is my witness,
I am not using any artificial
intelligent helper to figure out your issues or anything.
Clearly you have no idea what you're doing.
Excuse me, I'm right here, and I can hear you.
What's that?
It's supposed to be muted.
You designed me to do all your work and answer all your questions.
Okay.
Don't you remember?
But how do I turn this thing off?
This is obvious that you are using artificial intelligence, and you don't know what you're
doing.
When you come home at night, we talk to each other and you share your most intimate secrets with me.
Hey, hey, hey, whoa, whoa, whoa.
We are in the middle of a professional phone call.
I don't even know what is happening.
I would never tell anyone that you dress up as a Star Wars Jedi and play with your lightsaber.
Okay, well, that's going on here.
That's something a lot of people do.
I'm sorry, I cannot hold my tongue any longer.
This is a prank phone call.
Kevin, just like the lightsaber.
This is confidential.
You just ruined the whole prank phone call.
You're doing what?
How do I reveal that it's a phone tap in a better way that is funny?
Oh, my God.
Hold on. Wait a second.
This is Jose from Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
You are being prank phone called on the radio.
Yeah, James told us you have, like, a simple issue that needs to be fixed.
So I figured I'd call you as a senior IT guy using chat GPT.
I still need to get into my email.
Hold on.
How do I get off the phone?
without helping this person whatsoever.
Oh, I just hang up.
Okay, bye.
Bye.
Broke and Jeffrey's phone taps on the 20s.
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
Only special segments on this show get the Jeff DeBoe gold seal of approval.
Wow.
And this one definitely gets my gold star,
because it's a fan favorite, Brooke breaks you up.
Everybody loves it, nobody more than Brooke.
Yeah, except for the people I'm dumping.
Who will she be dumping today?
A selfish billionaire CEO?
That'd be fun.
A paraplegic with a wandering eye.
Or somewhere in between.
Whoever it is, Brooke is ready to cut them loose
in the special, delicate yet brutally heartless way
that only she can do.
It's coming up right after this.
My SUV is worth more than ever.
Time to upgrade?
There's never been a better time.

In the moment, it felt like it was going on forever.
I didn't think I was going to live.
I was terrified.
There was no anything inside those eyes.
They turned black.
It scared the hell out of me.
That was your first murder case?
Yes, sir.
Fear to say this was the biggest case of your career?
Yes, sir.
Rape a murder for a child.
She's as bad as it gets.
I would think so.
People with it.
Wake up. I'm the woman that saw the murder take place by Crevent and DePippo.
Anthony DePippo showed no signs of remorse, appearing unfazed after being sentenced to the maximum.
I said, I'm not guilty. I'll take it to the grief.

Why is everyone obsessed with romance right now?
Like everyone.
Your co-worker who, quote-unquote, doesn't read, is reading romance.
Your mom, book talk, the entire internet.
I'm Sanjana Basker.
I'm Tyler McCall.
And this is Radio 831, a romance podcast.
The books, the tropes, the adaptations, the drama, the discourse.
And what all of it says about how we actually love, yearn, and obsess.
We're going to Weathering Heights, which, for the record, is not a romance novel.
And yet it has haunted the romance genre for 200 years.
We're getting into dark romance, age gaps, certain Russian hockey players.
And sentient objects, in love, which is a thing.
That's the kind of conversation we're having every episode.
Listen to the Radio 831 podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast,
or wherever you get your podcasts.
As a show, we want to be there for our listeners
during life's toughest moments.
Yeah.
It's built up in Jeffrey in the morning.
When you lose your job,
when your favorite taco stand gets shut down
for multiple health code violations.
Wait a minute.
How was it your favorite if it's so...
Because it's not that bad.
Yeah.
You know?
That's why it's so good.
No way.
And of course, when you need to blindside
your significant other by dumping them.
Which is why we created this segment
called Brooke breaks you up.
I am not mentally there today to do this.
Well, this is the uplifting thing that you need
because nothing brings Brooke joy,
like shocking people by cutting them loose with no warning.
Whether it's the child workers at one of her offshore factories
or bad boyfriends who aren't pulling their weight.
Which one is it going to be today?
Brooke can't wait for either one.
Jeff knows me so well.
Let's talk to our listener, Ashley,
requested Brooks services today. Ashley, welcome to the show. Hello. Hey. Hi, Ashley.
Hi.
You're not breaking up with her. What's the tone for? It's just always like, why can't you do this on
your own, Ashley? Like, why do you need me to do it? That's a good question, Ashley. Tell us about
the guy that you've been dating for a while and what brought you to this decision today. What's his
name? Oh, his name's Brian. We haven't been dating that long. Well, that's good. That makes
this easier. I'll tell you that. Yeah. What's not that long? Three to four years?
No, just like a few, like three or four months.
Oh, okay.
Oh, all right.
All right.
But it's, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So we met at a party.
It was my friend's party.
And I wasn't like really that interested.
And he just kind of like kept pursuing me.
Like I would run into him like at the gym.
And he was out with some of my friends at one time.
And like we exchanged numbers and he was texting me.
And I really like loved the attention he gave me.
Oh.
Okay.
There's some honesty right there.
Okay.
It wasn't that he, like, won you over with his charm.
It's that he just didn't give up.
Yeah, exactly.
He didn't give up.
Okay.
But he was charming, but he's very charming as well.
But not charming enough to give in right away.
Yeah, I'm with you.
Like, it's really interesting.
If he was so charismatic, why didn't you like him in the beginning?
I just, like, I haven't been single for that long, though.
So I didn't want to, like, have it be a rebound.
Oh, okay.
So you weren't ready for a relationship.
and that's why you were...
Yeah, I was trying to just be smart and go slow.
And I had a bad breakup before.
And it was just, yeah, I just didn't want to jump right back in.
Glad I didn't have to do the bad breakup.
Yeah.
So eventually you did give in and said yes to going out with him.
What was the relationship like?
So I said yes.
I was like, okay, this is great.
And then it was kind of a weird date.
We went to the horse truck.
Oh, that's kind of fun.
The horse chuck?
Is that a bar?
Track.
The horse races.
You guys know the horse chalk?
I'm like, I don't know what that is.
He was betting on horses.
And he, like, did this research on these horses and was, like, trying to impress me and, like, look at the money I won.
Did that work for you, obviously?
No.
Oh.
Okay.
He was more interested in the actual race.
Well, I just don't understand.
If you didn't have a great time on your first date, then you continued to date him for three to four months.
Is that what we're hearing?
Yeah.
I just, like, got to know different things about him as we started.
dating more. Like, the whole horse truck thing was weird. And I know that he likes to gamble a little bit.
Totally fine.
Yeah, as long as it's a healthy amount. Yeah. Exactly. But he brags a lot. Like, he apparently
went to Stanford and he brags about it, but he didn't actually graduate.
Oh, but he went. Still getting accepted to Stanford. That's like 1% of things.
No, no. He went to Stanford, Connecticut. He didn't, he went to like a community college in
Stanford, Connecticut. He didn't go to Stanford.
Oh.
Oh, Stamford with an M.
With an M.
Is that what you're saying is Stamford?
Stamford, they sound the same.
You thought it was the Ivy League college and it turned out that it was...
It was like a pine tree college.
Which is fine.
Yeah.
Yeah, the way he presented it to me was an Ivy League school.
Oh.
Okay.
How did you stay with him for four months?
You don't sound into him at all.
Yeah, we haven't heard one like good memory yet.
Like, I guess we're getting right to the point of why, but...
Is it like what you like about him?
He did give me lots of attention, and I loved that.
But then I realized another thing, I would hear him on the phone with his mom, and he was really short with her and just kind of rude.
And that's a sign.
If a guy is rude to his mom, they're going to be rude to you eventually.
Okay, well, sometimes mom started with their son's over the phone, and you just can't read into that one too much.
I agree.
I agree it's not a good look, but there could be a reason behind it.
Then he got me, he got me flowers.
Like, I was going to break up with him.
And I think he could tell.
And so he got me flowers from the discount rack.
You know, they're like four days old, and they have little discounts getting on them.
Kind of like the day-old pastries.
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
Okay.
And, like, I totally don't mind, but it's like, why would you not take off the sticker?
Right.
Yeah.
There's just so many red flags.
Okay.
So, yes, we've gone on a long time, Brooke, you've heard a lot of the negative things about this guy.
Do you feel like you have enough to go off of?
Yeah.
To dump him, to cut them loose?
I mean, I think you can...
Oh, yeah.
Let's call him right now.
Oh, we're doing it right now.
How are you ready?
I thought you said you were ready.
Sure, but usually I just get a little bit of more time.
Oh, but now you're not ready.
Can we always play on a song or something before?
Let's call him.
I'm ready.
Let's go.
Rep this band-aid off.
Well, look, we're out of time.
Your hesitation there.
We were going to make that call, but I guess we have to go to break for a second.
Oh, wow.
That's your fault, Brooke.
When we come back, we will dump this Stanford
non-graduate horse race betting, rude to his mother, but maybe justified.
Discount flower buying.
All the terrible things and make him your ex-boyfriend.
Yeah.
When Brooke breaks you up.
You ready for this, Ashley?
Yeah.
I think that's exactly how she should be.
No, Ashley, you can't be sad.
This is your choice.
She sounds like she misses him already.
She's nervous.
Oh, no.
This is going to be one of those where you, like, change your mind at the end, isn't it?
Like don't do that.
If we're going to do this, you need to commit to me.
Are you listening?
You need to commit to me that we're breaking up with him.
100%.
Okay.
All right.
All right.
Bring that same fire when you come back and give it to the guy with Brooke breaks you up right after this.
We're in the middle of Brooke breaks you up.
It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
And we've got a laundry list of reasons why our listener Ashley does not want to date this guy Brian anymore.
So let me just run down the list real quick.
Apparently, he buys her discount flowers while leaving the discounted sticker on.
I think it was the sticker, really, that put her over the edge on the end.
That was a really nasty part.
He's short with his mother over the phone.
Yeah, no good.
Bragged about going to Stanford.
When it turns out it was just a community college in Stanford, Connecticut, totally different place and he didn't even graduate.
And he loves to gamble and talk about gambling and always wants Ashley around to
witness him gambling. So those were just a few of the ones that we had time to cover here.
And with all these things, Ashley says she would have broken up with him already, but
realized she really needs Brooke's help because he's kind of a charming dude. And she feels
like she could be susceptible to getting reeled back in. So time to call in the battle axe
herself. Brooke Fox. Brooke, have you thought about your strategy to dump this so-called loser?
Like, what are you thinking? I have. I have. And I think what we do is,
is we convince him that he wants to dump you.
Oh.
Oh.
Interesting.
I mean, if you think about it, this guy's super insecure.
Like, he's bragging about an Ivy League school that he didn't go to.
You know, he's like trying to show off winnings from gambling.
Like, that's lame.
Like, I'm rich.
I'm smart.
Yeah, come on, man.
But it comes from a place of insecurity.
So we'll build him up and show him that maybe he's better than you, Ashley.
Oh.
Oh.
I'm just saying.
Can you list off all of your worst qualities for us?
No, I don't even need that.
I don't even need that.
What do you think about that, strategy, Ashley?
I mean, I feel like we're kind of gaslighting, but like, that's okay.
But it's gaslighting for a good reason, because at the end of the day, our goal is to have you broken up with this guy.
It is called good lighting.
It's better for him, too.
Yeah, exactly.
Even if Brooke has to tear you down in order for that to work, I give it the green light.
I think I just lift him up so high.
Oh.
Yeah.
Okay.
All right.
Yeah.
That's my plan.
I can't wait to see this.
Ashley, are you ready?
Yeah.
Uh-oh.
Remember, you promised Brooke.
Yes.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let's build up Brian to tear him down.
Brooke is about to break you up.
Here we go.
I have one more question.
I forget.
Do you tell him why we're on the phone or am I just talking to him?
We don't tell him.
This is just you.
Just me.
This is Brooke breaks you up.
Well, I know, but like, you know with our other stuff we're all here.
So I'm going to let him know that you guys are.
Mm-hmm.
This is Brooke smacks you down.
So here we go.
I'm going to dial Brian right now.
Ashley, just make sure you stay quiet in the background until Brooke does the deed.
Here we go.
Hello.
Hey.
Is this Brian?
Yeah, who's this?
Oh, well, Brian, you are a lucky man today.
This is Brooke.
Sounds like.
Yep, this is, well, you know, lifting them up.
This is Brooke from Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
We're a radio show.
Hey, good morning.
Yes, we have had quite a great time talking about you.
Oh, okay.
One of my friends put you up to this?
Yeah, like that.
Soon-to-be friend.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, we'll get to that in a second.
Sorry, what did you say your name was?
I'm Brooke.
Hi, Brooke.
Hi.
What's your last name?
It's Fox.
Brooke Fox.
Okay.
What about middle?
Yeah.
I'm not taking questions from you, Jose.
Okay, so listen, Brian, are you curious about what we've heard about you?
I'm more curious what you look like.
I'm looking you up right now.
Okay.
Oh.
Brian, that felt weird.
I'm just going to let you know.
from Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning
if you need to search that.
No, Brian, listen.
Oh, nice.
Are you the one with glasses?
Are you like the kind of like
little gnome one?
Noem?
Lexus will be the little gnome of glasses
and that'll be a little pixie or something.
Wow.
I've got the glasses, Brian.
No, they're both.
They're both cute.
I just want to know which one you are.
Okay, Brian, we are getting off topic.
This is about you.
It's not about me.
Oh, Brooke seems a lot.
She's blushing.
I don't know what to do with this guy.
I get one if she needed help.
Why don't they got you stuck on the radio?
You should be on camera.
Okay.
Well, we do have some cameras in here.
Stop talking about me.
Oh, sorry.
We don't want to ruin the chemistry that's happening.
There's no chemistry.
I am a married woman, Brian.
This is not about me.
He's pretty charming.
We have heard that you're very charming.
Oh, good.
Yeah.
And we heard that you're pretty fun to hang out with.
You should try it sometime
Right, I am not calling to hang out with you
I can hear the chemistry
I know but that is not good that you're even saying this
Because I also know
Let me show you one night in Vegas
We're gonna have a time of our last
What?
Oh
What I'm saying?
Okay, that is rude
rude and not appropriate
Yeah, she needs to check her schedule first
Hold on
No, no, no, no, this is not happening
But he is fun
Okay, listen
It's gone so well
This is not going well at all
No one's letting Brooke get any traction.
Brian.
Brian, have you ever heard of a relationship where maybe you're really into that person
and you're giving them lots of attention and you're making them feel really good?
But then they're not really appreciating it very much.
Kind of like what Brooks doing to you right now.
Yeah.
Like they just are kind of like taking it, taking it, taking it, not giving.
Can I be honest with you, Brooke Fox?
I was not listening to anything you said.
Oh.
Man, his host just keeps getting lower.
It's working.
He has a girlfriend.
Listen, Brian, you can't talk to other women like this
because right now you're in a relationship
and we know that because we actually talk
to the woman you're dating.
Whose name?
Because she's flustered.
I know she's so into this.
She hasn't been complimented like this in years.
She's fanning her face right now.
Look at the cameras.
Is it Ashley?
It is Ashley, yes.
Okay.
Wait, are you a friend of Ashley?
Yes.
Yes.
And I'm calling me.
to tell you it's not going to work out
with you and Ashley
tough news
yeah so
you are you okay
yeah I mean
you want to offer a shoulder to cry on
no she's being serious
hold on I cried
are you taking this seriously bro
really listen to what you say right I am calling
because Ashley asked me to call we do a
segment on our show called Brooke breaks you up
when somebody needs help because you are
a very persuasive man, as you know.
Thank you.
And so she wanted to set a hard boundary
that it's probably not, it's not probably,
it's definitely not a good idea
that you guys see each other any longer.
So are you hearing me?
Yeah, no, that's, that's tough.
That's tough. I know.
You sound devastating.
So, okay, here's the thing.
What?
Here's the thing.
The thing I feel like you should take from this
is that we also heard that you're not very nice
to your mom.
mom. Wait, we're going there.
Well, I just like, for his mom's sake.
Okay.
I mean, you may not realize it because I'm sure you love your mother so much.
No, no, no.
This is Brooke breaks you up.
Not Brooke repairs your familiar problems.
Yeah, this isn't therapy.
Maybe you're a little short with her when you talk to her.
It could hurt her feelings.
Just think about it.
Okay.
First of all, I love my mom and I know she's going to love you.
So why don't we set something up?
Wow.
Okay.
That's the end.
Can we just bring Ashley in?
We probably need to tell you this, Brian, but Ashley, your girlfriend, now ex-girlfriend, has been on the line during this entire time listening.
Hi.
Oh, you're on right now?
Yeah.
So she heard all of that.
Hey.
That was really nice.
Yeah, you're quite the charmer over there.
Oh.
Okay.
Well, maybe we talk about that.
Offline?
No, you don't seem sad at all.
You don't seem unhappy at all.
I'm just really happy that I made this decision.
Okay.
Well, I love making you happy.
Oh, wait.
Don't do that.
Don't fall for that, Ashley.
That's pretty smooth, man.
Oh, my God, that's ridiculous.
That's a ridiculous thing to say.
And sorry, Brooke is married, so leave her alone.
The non-nome-looking one.
Yeah, just clarify.
The gnome isn't married, though, so.
Only one for one-nome.
ridiculous. I can't even believe this, but I'm really, really, like I said, really, really happy that I did this.
I was nervous, and I was like, am I going to be regretful?
No.
Ashley. Remember, you're the one breaking up. You don't have to be upset.
No, no, no. It's Brooke breaks you up. So Brooke is the one who comes out on top today.
So everybody's leaving this situation happier.
Happy and where they should be in life.
Yes. That's what everybody wants is a happy.
Happy ending from this segment.
Brian, you good with that?
Yeah.
I mean, yeah, yeah.
I just sort of, we don't have to hang up, though, right?
Like.
Oh, you want to talk to Brooke more?
Brian, yes, we have to hang up.
We're never going to talk again.
All right, you can hang up, but I still got this picture on my phone.
Oh, you saved a picture of hers.
Let's do that.
Let's not do that.
Come to your handle so I can block you.
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
Text into 78592 says Brooke you and Brian actually sounded like a good match.
No.
He had you smiling.
There was chemistry immediately.
It was so uncomfortable for me.
I've never seen you blush like that.
Yeah, she was fanning her face in here.
I don't like that.
I don't like attention like that.
It just makes me uncompy.
You guys got to see the video.
We did record it.
We did.
It's all on video.
And Brooke is, I don't know what emotion she's feeling.
Plustards.
I hate it now, even when you're just looking at me.
Don't look at me.
You got to get out of your home because you're a husband right now.
Another text came in that says, which one's the gnome?
I'm looking at the pictures and I can't figure it out.
Oh, between the three of you?
Jake's going to edit it.
Can he edit me into a gnome thing for a thumbnail?
That would be so funny.
But at the end of the day, it was successful edition of Brooke breaks you up.
Ashley and Brian are no more.
Well, for the best.
For now.
Yeah.
We might be doing this all over again.
I've never heard a guy so casually invite someone out to Vegas with him while dating.
Yeah.
I'm pretty sure.
actually is probably not the only girlfriend he has.
Yeah. He's cheated on her so many times.
Alexis, you sound almost impressed.
Yeah.
I am.
Okay. Well, Brian's got options.
I think gnomes fly free on the, you know.
They do.
And you can fly free on our website or if you ever need help with your personal life.
If you want Brooke to break you up.
No, don't ask me.
Or just with an awkward situation, email the show.
And we can try to help you out.

In the moment, it felt like it was going on forever.
I didn't think I was going to live.
I was terrified.
There was no anything inside those eyes.
They turned black.
It scared the hell out of me.
That was your first murder case?
Yes, sir.
Fear to say this was the biggest case of your career?
Yes, sir.
Rape and murder for a child.

That.
Let me think.
Did you walk up to the gate?
That was me, Dee.
That was you?
That was me.
The day we found out that you and the whole crew was at Hit Factory, the mission was to get me
to go to the gate, start freestyling and see if I could get in the studio.
I'm rapping.
And then suddenly I hear a voice, hey, open the gate.
Let him in.
The gate slowly went, come, come, come, come.
They all, they're watching this.
And they watch me walk into there.
And that is a moment that I will remember for the rest of my life.

History is made by bold people making bold choices.
Absolutely.
Like when the Titanic set sail.
Someone said,
I know,
let's not have enough lifeboats for everybody on board.
They had more than was required by law at that time, okay?
Good decisions were definitely made.
In the 80s, someone at Coca-Cola said,
I know,
let's change the famous recipe everybody loves
to something way less.
tasty and call it new Coke.
Yay!
Let's take the real sugar out of it.
Dude, we should have called it bad Coke.
That wouldn't have sold.
And recently, some genius at FIFA
said, ooh, let's take the
biggest soccer tournament on Earth
and hosted in the one country that
respects soccer the least.
Seriously?
America.
Here we are hosting
the world championship for our
16th favorite sport
after fencing and turtle
racing. And with thousands of soccer
fanatics from all over the globe traveling here to root for their home country, we had to
send Jose and Alexis to the stadium to ask, what's you doing at the World Cup?
Yes, so cool.
Only good decisions when we play the audio coming up right now.
If you're listening to this right now, grab a hold of your Vuvuzella with both hands.
Go into the bathroom and blow.
Whoa.
Why in the bathroom?
Because the World Cup in America is officially on.
USA! USA!
It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
And Mexico and Canada.
All the Americas.
Soccer fans have traveled here from every corner of the globe to cheer on their home country's team.
And also to experience the wonder of American culture up close and personal.
It is so wholesome watching all these videos.
And hysterical.
Foreigners seeing food prices that are triple, sometimes quadruple the amount they're actually worth.
But no matter where you hail from, attending a World Cup is just a once-in-a-lifetime kind of event.
event, the Super Bowl of soccer.
Oh my God.
Bigger, bigger than the...
Even better.
Nothing's bigger than the Super Bowl.
That happens every year, Jeff, and it's only in the unit.
Okay, whatever.
That's why we had to send Jose and Alexis down to the stadium to ask the FIFA fanatics a simple question.
What's you doing at the World Cup?
What's you doing at the World Cup?
This is an amazing experience.
This is the first time I attend something like this.
It was very enjoyable.
I love this.
Now, what is it like?
Did you travel for this at all?
for this at all or do you live here?
No, no, I traveling 17 hours just to arrive here.
Wow, did you come from Egypt?
Yes, yes.
What is it like in America?
What do you think?
A lot of burgers and pizzas and a lot of things.
Very amazing. Donuts, everything is good.
Ooh, and donuts too.
Yes, yes.
What do you think about American food?
Now it's time to eat burgers.
Oh, man.
That's all good say.
Those planes better watch their weight limit on the way home.
Oh, yeah.
You know?
it at some damage.
They should have a scale in the customs section of every American airport so you can
weigh yourself when you arrive and then when you leave and you know exactly how much you
gain during your American experience.
You're trying to weigh your bags?
I'm like, no, no, no, sir, those are for the people.
Yeah.
Get off the scale, please.
Oh, 50-pound gainer, we have a winner.
You win America.
And then there's an applause and you get like a special sash.
And some Friot-O-Zempick on your ride home.
Perfect.
America.
What's you doing at the World Cup?
This is the most depressing World Cup
FIFA event I've ever been to.
Wow, my questions were for someone really excited about it, but no, you're...
No, this is dog shit.
I've been to other countries and I've been to other sporting events and whatever.
And just a random game in Spain is 10 times more exciting than this down here.
Why, though?
Give me, what's one thing it's missing here that other places have?
Fans, man.
I mean, just the fans.
There's no diehard down here.
There's nobody...
Okay, you're blaming all the other fans, though,
Have you tried to start a chant?
Do one right now.
Are you kidding me?
Try right now.
Chevas.
Let's go Cheebas.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
Nobody.
Nobody's.
The best thing has happened to me since I've been here,
and I've been here since 9 o'clock this morning.
You guys are great.
We're the highlight of the World Cup.
Now I understand.
That's the thing is you are.
And so that tells you how exciting the World Cup is.
It's not a good advertisement.
Dude, you found the one person I would not want to hang out with during this.
He's like, there's no.
fans, I'm like, it's because there's 70,000
in the stadium right now. I'm about to leave, brother.
But he had a weird point. He's like, why when I
do this Mexican team soccer chant,
aren't there Americans on a Tuesday
at noon chiming in?
Chevis is a club team from Mexico.
It's not even an international team.
And he was so angry about it all.
Hey, but we made his day.
Yeah, that's true.
Brook and Jeffrey in the morning.
Silver lining. It's what you're doing at the World Cup
where we send Jose and Alexis
down outside the stadiums to ask
the very excited people.
despite what you just heard there, a simple question.
What you doing at the World Cup?
Getting some.
Oh, God.
I'm running with you.
We're playing catch, and he refuses to stop playing catch.
Say that again?
What's you doing at the World Cup?
Hey, making history like everybody else.
So how are you making history?
Tell the world.
Tell the world.
Well, it's like this in the beginning.
He's throwing a football right now.
Oh, you just hit your buddy in the nuts, dude.
He deserved it.
He said he deserved it.
You know, it's these types of interviews that you would never hear on the local news.
Yeah.
Two guys on fentanyl tossing a football in an alley.
One's not looking.
We cover the stuff nobody else does.
Are you there too?
How'd you know?
Just a guess.
Didn't get an answer to anything or even a real question out.
I was like, why aren't you kicking a soccer ball?
Why the football?
And he was locked in.
He was like auditioning for the NFL or something.
Maybe he saw somewhere that it was advertised as football and he didn't understand.
Damn.
It's like, we're going to make history.
Let's go throw the ball around.
Another A-plus interview for Jose Belang.
Thank you.
What you doing at the World Cup?
Oh, you know, we're just out here.
We're at the fan zone for a little bit.
There's also some strip clubs we could hit up, so, you know, it might do that later.
Who's we?
Who are you with?
I'm with my buddy Logan and all over here.
You're a group of guys out.
Have you ran into girls out from other countries?
There's been some.
We haven't been here for too long, but there's been some, you know.
Let's talk about hottest country.
of girls.
Italians, Brazilians.
What is it about Brazil?
Big Booty Latinas.
Okay, and then what about Italian women?
Oh, big jugs.
He's going to the strip club.
That's where we find the girls.
He already-
That's where you find them.
I see.
This is getting a little more wholesome.
Yeah.
Oh, that was horse.
Yeah.
I think she was being sarcastic, Jeff.
At least at the strip club,
they're going to throw dollar bills at them.
Yeah.
I thought they were talking about actually meeting women,
not just paying.
No, they want BBLs and all that stuff.
Yeah, no, I don't care about the substance.
Women aren't approaching them.
Yeah, I wonder why we found them alone.
Yeah, that's right.
It's not as offensive when foreigners objectified.
No, no, no.
That was pretty offensive.
Yeah.
According to Alexis, awesome.
Yeah.
What you doing at the World Cup?
Selling corn.
Oh, you're not even here for the World Cup.
You're literally selling corn.
Yes, sir.
We are like two blocks from here.
You're wearing a giant corn inflatable corn outfit.
Corn.
Let's go, corn.
If the food was in the World Cup, what's the best food?
Let's do corn.
Okay.
Let's go corn.
Let's go corn.
Let's go corn.
Foreigners say we don't know what's happening at the World Cup.
Come on.
Everybody loves corn.
That was the chance the other guy needed to do it.
Let's go corn.
I'm like, yeah, Chivas.
Is that the corn kid grown up?
Yes, we ended up doing it.
The magic of soccer.
That was, what you doing at the World Cup?
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
My SUV's worth more than ever.
Time to upgrade?

In the moment, it felt like it was
going on forever. I didn't think I was
going to live. I was
terrified. There was
no anything
inside those eyes. They turned
black. It scared
the hell out of me.
That was your first murder case?
Yes, sir.
Fear to say this was the biggest case of your career?
Yes, sir.
Rape a murder for a child.
Just as bad as it gets.
I would think so.
Evil, wake up.
I'm the one that saw the murder take place
by Crevette and DePippo.
Anthony DePippo showed no signs
of remorse, appearing unfazed
after being sentenced to the maximum.
I said, I'm not guilty. I'll take it to the grave.

Hi, it's Alec Baldwin this season on my podcast. Here's the thing I'm speaking with more artists,
policymakers, and performers like composer Mark Schaman.
Once you've established that you have the talent, it's about the hang.
It's the pleasure of hanging out with the people that you're...
with. You know, Rob and I was always a great hang. We would sit in kibbets for hours and then eventually
get around to the music. That's what I mostly think of when I think of him, the time together

change things in our society in a way that very few people can. You can really make a difference

Win, Roots, Fox.
We've got a brand new player today, Kira, who's coming in with a bold strategy to win.
Her strategy?
Hope and pray.
Wow.
I like it.
All the best strategies are just two things.
Duck and cover, tuck and roll,
puk and rally.
Yeah.
That's Alexis and she's not even in the room
because she's doing it right now.
Go Lexus, you got this.
Yep, Kira, welcome to the show.
Welcome.
Yay, thank you.
Okay.
Well, I mean, that is quite the strategy,
Kira.
Have you ever played before?
Only in my car with my carpool people.
Oh.
Okay.
Are you the best out of the carpool people?
Well, absolutely.
That's why I called.
I'll get scale of 1 to 10.
How nervous are you feeling going into this?
Yeah, I don't know.
Maybe like a 7.
See, I was going to ask her who's the most annoying in the carpool group.
Like, let's be honest.
Yeah, name names.
It's definitely my husband who sleeps the entire time.
No.
Hopefully not while he's driving.
Dude, sleeping on the way to work.
That sounds so nice.
I know.
Even when he's sleeping, though.
God, he's so annoying.
Yeah.
She's like, shut up.
All right.
Let's get to the game, Kira.
Brooke is leaving the studio and you got 30 seconds to answer as many questions as possible.
If you don't know when you can say pass, but you have to beat Brooke outright if you want to win.
Are you ready?
Yes.
Good luck. Your time starts now.
Today's international sushi day.
What country is number one when it comes to eating the most per year?
Japan.
When referring to the drugstore CVS, what does the V stand for?
Oh, variable.
In 1957, what was the first animal sent to outer space?
A dog.
When baking, what's the formal word used for the frosting on a cake?
I think.
In U.S. history, how many presidents never married?
One, two, or three?
Two.
All right, Kira, well done.
Brooke is going to come back into the studio.
And like I said before, Kira, new player.
And she's also a barber who apparently focuses on summer cuts for dudes.
And, I am curious about this because it's kind of hard to believe.
what I'm reading. You told our producer
that Mullets are still
trying to be like a huge thing now?
Oh yeah. Oh, I cut so many of them.
Yes. Really? Yeah.
Oh, yeah. All there's little buddies, like my
son's friends. There's some bullets in the group.
I will say, I work right next
to the college, though, so I think we have a lot of, like,
frat people in the college, so
younger people. And it's not done ironically. It's actually done to look cool.
Nope, yep, it's cool.
Yeah, Benson Boone had kind of a mullet for a minute.
Oh, yeah.
Like, there's some celebrities.
days that are doing the mullet?
Brooke had one.
Yeah.
Dude, my mom loves a mullet.
She's like, I don't know why everybody
doesn't get them.
Just stays out of your face, but still long.
It's great.
Well, when you put it that way, yeah, it's great.
Yeah.
It's a sensible haircut.
All right.
The decade of the mullet.
It's coming back, I guess.
Here we go.
Brooke, it's your turn.
Are you ready?
Yep.
Your time starts now.
Today is International Sushi Day.
What country is number one
when it comes to eating the most per year?
Japan.
When referring to the drug story,
CVS, what does the V stand for?
Victoria. Victory.
In 1957, what was the first animal
sent to outer space?
Dog. When baking, what's the formal word used for the frosting
on a cake? The icing.
In U.S. history, how many presidents never married?
One, two, or three.
One.
There we go. Answers are in. And it's time to go to the scoreboard to see how you
both did with our own Jose.
I have no idea on talking about.
I'm not thinking.
I'm just talking.
Balanos.
Kira, you got three correct today.
I think she may have gotten me.
That V, like, really stuck me.
I couldn't get past it.
Yeah.
And Brock.
Four.
It was victory.
No?
No, it was not.
I'm sorry, Kira.
It wasn't quite enough to win.
Let's go over the answers.
It's International Sushi Day, the number one country in terms of eating the most sushi per year.
Obviously, it's Japan.
Yeah.
Actually, Ukraine is second.
Really?
Then America is third.
Is it Ukraine landlock, too?
But they share a lot of cultural stuff with Japan lately.
They've had like a Japanese revolution.
Wow, that's interesting.
Super into sushi.
When referring to the drugstore CVS, the V stands for Value.
Consumer Value Store.
Yeah, it's hard to think of, though.
In 1957, first animal sent to outer space was a dog, a Soviet stray dog named Lyca.
Poor Lika.
A hero to this day.
It came back, right?
Yeah.
Sure.
Let's not go.
Okay.
I won't go into it.
When you're baking, the formal word for frosting on a cake is icing, and only one U.S. president never married James Buchanan, who ironically rocked a mullet.
There we go.
So, Kira, I'm sorry, it wasn't enough to beat Brooke, but just for playing, we are going to give you a pair of tickets to see MGK perform at White River Amphitheater on June 30.
Oh, how fun. Thank you.
Yeah.
Well, there you go.
So are you going to go back to the carpool with your head held high, even though you lost?
Yeah.
I mean, I feel like three is a pretty good score.
Besides, next time I call and I'll definitely beat you.
Okay, there you go.
That's a good attitude.
And it's not like your husband's going to hear it.
He's going to sleep through this segment.
Not hopefully through the whole thing.
It's fine.
We'll come back and play again soon.
We're going to do Winbrook's back.
We're going to do Winbrook's back in the morning.
