Ah, that's Freckensy Deutsch, Alexis.
Wow, that happened over the weekend.
I don't even want to play off of that.
We don't learn anything when we go to October Fest, okay?
I just do you speak German, I think.
I didn't do very well with German.
Every German listener just tuned out.
Yeah, that's great.
Sorry, Germany.
All right, we are going to October Fest with Jose and Alexis today.
They didn't know what you're doing.
It's coming up, but brand new.
We got a brand new, oh my God, the awkward Tuesday phone call you definitely want to stick around for.
Yeah.
But let's get into these comments.
Also, we loved your guys' comments yesterday on Halloween costumes.
Oh, yes.
A lot of people commenting.
I didn't pull any to read because it was a lot of serial killer, Will Ferrell's serial killer.
Really?
I think you didn't pull any to read because so many people complimented.
What great ideas I did?
Nobody said they were good.
People just said which one.
A lot of people text today, but you were wrong and Jeffrey was wrong.
We should have given people like an option of none of these.
Please submit your own.
Save our show.
Good.
I'm going to tell you right now, trendsetter.
That's what I am.
Wait until you see these group costumes everywhere.
Look what you've created.
I'm honest for everybody.
Okay, I have a different comment, though, from Ben W.
Who said a couple weeks ago, I went on vacay and then got really sick.
So I've been catching up on the full shows for the last little while.
And I have some observations.
One, Jose went through a brief but solid phase where he said, that's the strat, at least once per show.
Okay.
I don't remember you saying.
I don't either, but it sounds like a good strat.
I never noticed until she read the comment out loud, but Alexis really does say ugh a lot.
And three, Brooke, Brooke, do you.
the phone tap and the job interview with different accents was maybe the most uncomfortable
I've been in my entire life.
Wait, not funny, just uncomfortable?
Yeah, just uncomfortable.
So anyways.
We made you feel something.
Thank you for your insight on our past us.
I bet he didn't really like the way I started this then.
Oh, yeah.
Probably not.
All right.
Full circle.
Let's end this.
How do you believe something that already happened?
Let's end this.
Your brand new full hour starts right now.
Scary news.
The TSA just identified the latest threat to American air travel.
Oh, no.
Oh, no, Jeff, don't start us out like this.
Tell us with dramatic music.
It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
And it's not box cutters or explosives or the guy bringing his emotional support cobra onto the plan.
Those are fine.
He's got a little best on.
That's cute.
The newest threat to airplane safety is your child's squishy toys.
Like the needle toys?
Yes.
Like, you know, those viral little stress toys that kids are obsessed with right now.
Oh, you can't buy them.
They're like sold out everywhere.
Because they're so popular.
Some of them look like a little Asian dumplings.
Some of them look like a big stick of butter.
I've seen the dumplings are super popular.
They want them all.
Thank God TSA has seen them for what they really are.
Tiny, gooey, threats.
No, they're not.
Because a lot of them are filled with over 3.4 ounces of gel-like material.
And God knows what sadistic, twisted things those four-year-olds were planning for once they snuck those squishies on board.
I'm sorry, but you're wrong.
That is a full middle schoolers.
Love these things.
And they're always doing something nefarious.
Exactly.
That's why they're saying, not today, Billy.
Yeah.
And I am proud to announce TSA has been cracking down and confiscating squishy toys from children in airport security lines across the country.
They want them for themselves because they're sold out.
Exactly.
They should resell those on your day.
So, of course, the kids get all upset and start crying.
No.
But are they crying because they lost their favorite toy?
or because they didn't get to commit an act of terror.
Second.
Hard to say, I'm not willing to risk it.
And personally, I don't want to live in a country that doesn't rip toys away from children before a six-hour flight.
Wow.
Feels good.
There you go, folks.
The wails of children means America is safe once again.
Let freedom ring and let our throat holes sing as we get shocked on them during the shock collar question.
of the day.
Send it over to DigitalJ take it away.
Well, on this day back in 1986,
America was introduced to Alf.
Oh, my God.
When I was really young, I never remember that.
The lovable,
furry alien who crashed landed into a suburban garage,
moved in with a random family,
and spent four full seasons trying to eat their cat.
Yeah, it was like, a lot of human with her.
It was.
It's kind of crazy, because if an alien tried that today,
we wouldn't really give them a sitcom.
We'd give him a Netflix true crime documentary.
Oh, yeah.
But Alf is just one of the many extraterrestrials
who've invaded our movies, TV shows, and pop culture over the years.
And today, you're going to be quizzed on some of the others
during a special Martian Mind Melter edition of...
Pohenty of 20.
You can say number 1 through 20,
I'll describe a famous alien creature from film or pop culture.
You just have to name them.
to avoid being ejected from the studio out into the cold void of space.
Oh, wow, we have that technology.
We do now.
Pretty cool.
We'll start with the woman who always thought E.T. was kind of hot for a bald guy.
Hey.
That's Alexis.
Nine.
Alexis, in the 2009 movie Avatar, the blue aliens called the Navi live on the moon Pandora
and have a unique way of connecting with animals.
What do they physically connect to the animal with?
Is it A, their ears, B, their hands, C, their hair, or D, your standard USBC cable?
Oh, wow.
That would be so boring.
Open up your porn.
I'm about to plug in.
Do you have a converter for this?
I have the wrong dongle.
Dude, if aliens are still using USBC, that would be.
That would be epic.
But I do remember they take their, like, nice braided hair and they put it in, connect it to the animal.
I don't know how to word it properly, but hair.
You awarded it beautifully.
Show me Hairport, that's correct.
The Navi have long braided hair with tendrils at the end
that connect directly to an animal's nervous system
so they can communicate extremely personal.
Imagine if we could all connect to each other.
I know. Think of the tendrils.
Brooke, pull my finger.
Let's connect.
She almost fell for it.
Brooke, it's your turn.
Nine is off the board.
Ten.
Oh, okay.
In Guardians of the Galaxy,
the alien character Groot
can only say one phrase,
I am Groot.
Tell me which action star voice is Groot.
And if he would have asked you out in your 20s, would you have say yes?
And how far would you have gone with him?
Oh, name.
Oh, what is his name?
It's not the rock.
It's the other action ball star.
Yes.
What is his name?
Oh, my God.
It's escaping me.
I'm going to die.
Oh.
You so know it, bro.
Come on.
She's just thinking about what base she would go to him with.
Yeah, now she's fluff.
I'll just say Stephen Baldwin.
Stephen Baldwin as grew up.
Hang on.
Stephen Baldwin.
And wait, hold on, what base would you go to with Stephen Baldwin?
No.
None.
No.
Barney from the Flintstones movie.
Interesting.
Yeah, it wasn't Stephen Baldwin.
The White Rock you're looking for, Brooke.
His name is Vin Diesel.
Vin Diesel.
Dang it.
Yikes.
All right, Jose, it's your turn 9 and 10 are off the board.
Let's go 12.
We're talking aliens because Alf debuted on this day in 1986.
Jose, your question is this.
In the men in black movies, the agents use a device to erase people's memories after they've witnessed an alien sighting.
In the film, what's the device called?
Oh, no.
Is it the neutralizer, the neuralizer, the obliterator, or the you saw nothing, bro, 3,000.
The look over here.
Darn it.
I think it's going to be between neutralizer and neuralizer.
Will neutralizer neuter you?
That would be a different neutral.
I'm going to go, B, neuralizer!
Jose says neuralizer, and he's correct.
The neuralizer flashes a bright light that wipes or alters someone's recent memories.
The agents then give the person a new explanation of whatever they just witnessed.
Also wish we could do that.
Brooke, bowed my finger.
No.
Okay.
All right.
Jeffrey, it's your turn.
If you get this right, Brooke is going to get shocked today.
Oh, no.
Dang you, Vin Diesel.
I'm going to have one.
Number two.
Number two, when Stranger Things became a huge hit,
one of the show's young stars had an unusual problem when she was out in public.
Fans would sometimes recognize Millie Bobby Brown Bon Jovi and ask,
that's her name now.
Don't correct me, Brooke.
Her name is Millie Bobby Brown Bon Jovi.
I was like you.
You're absolutely right.
She's into the Jovi.
Fans would recognize MBBBB and ask,
one very specific thing about her character 11, what were they asking her to do?
Was it to A, say her famous line, friends don't lie.
B, ask her to make something move with her mind, or C, order an egg-o waffle at a restaurant
using her British accent.
Oh.
Huh.
I always forget she's brand, too.
I thought it was going to be a spontaneous bloody nose.
That's what I thought too.
Honestly, yeah.
Okay.
Well, I mean, if it's called Stranger Things, the strangest thing on this list.
Have you not watched Stranger Things?
I tried the first episode, and it just is, I don't get it.
Yeah, the first episode.
I don't get it.
The whole series is amazing.
I was a kid already.
I don't need to see other people talk about it.
Okay.
You say that to Van Diesel, then talk to me.
I'm sorry, I don't know real cinema.
The strangest thing on this list is ordering an eggo waffle at a restaurant in a British accent.
Give me that.
Show it to me.
me. No, I'm sorry.
People ask her to make something move with her mind.
Because that's Eleven's powers.
Those dumb idiot fans.
Yeah.
That means Brooke and Jeffrey have both lost today's.
Plenty of 20.
Jose and Alexis, you get to choose who gets shocked today.
Jeff, Jeff, Jeff, after that comment, that's strange a thing.
Neuralized my answer.
What?
Okay.
Wait, who are you people?
I'm going to sing and somebody wanted to hear the Men in Black song by Will Smith.
Nice.
Here come the men in black
Galaxy defender
Such a pause
The pause is crucial
That was your shot caller question of the day
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning
People are always looking for a sign from the universe
Before making any huge life decisions
Like a rainbow
Appearing above a bank
Telling you that's the one I should rob
Wow.
It's the universe talking to you.
I see.
One of our listeners says he was ready to propose to his girlfriend when he got a major sign from the universe just two hours before he was set to pop the question.
And after that, everything changed.
We're going to hear it in a brand new mass speaker that's coming up right now.
You don't know me.
A confession I can't take back.
I am
The mast speaker
Text to 78592 says
Whenever I'm mad at my husband
I take a slice of coffee cake
And eat it while sitting on his side of the bed
So little crumbs get all over his
Half of the mattress
There's layers of crumbs in a coffee cake
The dust on the top is the worst alone
There's layers of passive aggressiveness in that
No, geez, just key his car like a normal wife
Whoa.
Wait.
Dang, bro.
You also own the car,
Jeff.
Okay, sleep with his brother, then.
Something less sadistic than clums in the bed.
Wow.
But I guess we all have our own little secrets that we keep from the people closest to us.
Some involve passive aggressive pastry eating.
Others are so bad you've got to disguise your voice before you'll admit them right here on the mass speaker.
Like today's caller who wants to come clean using Reed as his fake name.
So Reed, welcome to the show, ma'am.
Hey guys, thanks for having me on.
Oh, man.
I hope you're not as crazy as that person that texted is.
Oh, I hope he is.
I want a good story here.
Yeah, let's get into it.
Voice Changer is on.
You are the mass speaker.
Whenever you're ready, let's hear your confession.
Okay.
Oh, well, about four years ago, I planned this trip to Hawaii with my girlfriend at the time.
Oh, fun.
I love that it's at the time.
That means it's an ex now.
No, no, she's my wife.
Oh.
Brooke, why are you always assuming the worst?
I know.
I hope your husband needs a cookie on your side of the bed tonight.
I just never talk about my husband in the past as my boyfriend at the time.
When you hear the story, it'll make sense why I did that.
All right.
Trip to Hawaii with your former girlfriend.
Okay.
Don't you start, Jeffrey.
Sorry.
Okay, secretly, the entire vacation was just built around the fact that I was going to propose to her there.
Aw.
In paradise.
Wow.
But you're so nervous.
Oh, I was. I was definitely afraid, but I wanted to be special.
So I went way overboard.
I went nuts.
This is the time to do that.
Yes.
Like how?
Well, here's what I did.
I researched and I found like a secluded beach where we could have dinner.
I hired a photographer.
He would hide nearby.
I paid for flowers, champagne.
I even got a local musician that's going to play her song while we ate.
Wow.
Wow.
That's so romantic.
Someone's laying in a little thick.
Yeah, he loves her.
You get it.
Just like, whole thirsty.
To say the least, it cost a lot of money.
Yeah.
But for me, it was totally worth it because I wanted to give her her perfect dream proposal.
Totally.
A story that you'll talk about until the end of your time.
Yeah.
Turns out we don't talk about this at all.
I'll tell you why.
Oh.
Okay.
Okay.
What happened?
So we get to Hawaii.
We're sitting by the pool, just having some drinks.
And down by the beach, we see this couple.
walking by. The guy stops, gets on one knee, and proposes.
Aw.
Cute.
Okay.
But then my girlfriend turns to me and she says, oh, my God, I would absolutely hate it
if someone proposed to me on vacation like that.
Oh.
Oh, no.
You said you wanted to give her her her dream proposal, but you didn't ask her what her dream was.
You just assumed.
I thought she'd pre-improved this.
Wait, why would she hate that?
Did she explain?
She said destination proposal.
are the corneest and lamest things
she's ever seen
because the girl knows it's coming.
Dude.
Oh, no.
Oh, God.
Photographer, shut her.
Yeah.
She either knew you were about to propose
and was just brutal
or she had no idea.
Yeah.
There's no in between.
You're right.
She was like warning you maybe like, oh.
Here's how I know she didn't know
because her next sentence out of her mouth,
if you ever proposed to me,
please don't do something lame and cheesy.
like a beach get up.
Oh, my gosh.
And you already spent like thousands and thousands.
What is happening inside you at that moment?
I am literally, I'm beside myself, looking at myself going, you idiot.
Oh.
How?
How can you possibly back out now?
Yeah, that's true.
Everyone's already ready.
I excuse myself.
I'm like, hey, I got to go to the bathroom.
I frantically start texting everybody I had hired trying to cancel this proposal.
Yeah, yeah.
You're gone for 45 minutes.
Like it was the shrimp buffet.
Yeah.
Are you making headway on the cancellations?
No.
Photographer says, oh, I'm already down at the beach waiting for you.
Oh, it was that day?
What?
Yes.
It was two hours before.
Oh, God.
Everything's already in motion.
No one will let me cancel.
Musicians are already there.
The champagne had already been delivered.
And everybody's telling me, well, it's going to be non-refundable.
And I'm stuck because I already told her we had to.
dinner reservation than where it was going to be.
Oh.
So you can't say, oh, they canceled on us.
Yeah.
Literally walking down to the beach where the dinner's going to be.
And I can see the photographer, like, trying to, like,
casually leave while carrying this giant camera and a camera bag.
The musician is stumbling away with a guitar.
There's a guy that was dragging a cooler of champagne across the sand.
Wait, you could still drink that.
Yeah, yeah.
Keep the champagne.
I wanted no part for that proposal.
Get rid of it.
Oh, jeez.
So did you just sit and have dinner on the beach, like normal girlfriend and boyfriend?
Long story short, we have a normal dinner by the water.
We finally go home from our Hawaii trip the next day.
We're still boyfriend and girlfriend.
And a couple of weeks later, I finally proposed.
And she told everybody how much she loved it because it was simple and totally unexpected.
Oh.
Oh, okay.
It worked out for the best.
So worth the money loss.
Yeah.
It was.
And it had to be simple because I had already blown my entire place.
You hit it in a KFC bucket, didn't you?
Yeah, totally.
Pretty much.
Yeah.
Congratulations on having a happy wife.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
It was a time.
It really was.
Oh, my gosh.
And to this day, my wife still has no idea that I almost gave her her worst nightmare
cheesy beach proposal.
Bro tell her.
Nope.
You reenact it on your 20th
wedding anniversary.
That's actually really funny.
Yeah, that would be funny.
I am taking this to the grave.
No, thank you.
What a terrifying experience in the moment.
But it sounds like it all worked out for the best.
Every couple that's ever been to Hawaii
together listening right now was like
turn into their boyfriend.
Like, that wasn't you, right?
Yeah.
Thanks for confessing, Reed.
And text in 75,
9-2 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 tabs coming up right after this.
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
It's almost time for your praying phone call.
It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
And if you're not driving right now,
close your eyes.
And I want you to think of someone in your life
who just has a natural, sexy,
sultry voice.
And now I want you to think of Brooke.
Because her mission today
was to call a guy's room.
and tell him that they matched online at some point
and attempt to flirt with him.
That's right.
In the most awkward way possible.
I think it's pretty good.
Take notes.
Honestly, I love Brooke flirting.
I don't know who's worse at sexy talk.
Brooke or this poor guy?
You be the judge in your phone tap right now.
Brooke and Jeffrey's phone taps on the 20s.
Hello?
Hi.
Is this Darnell?
Yes, it is.
How you doing?
already asking, huh?
I like that, Darnal.
Don't you want to know who it is?
Yeah, who is this?
It's Julia, and I'm ready to be rised.
Julia, where I know you from, Julia?
Wouldn't you like to know, Riz away?
Okay, so what are we doing?
Oh, my God.
You are so funny.
What are we not doing is the better question.
How did you give my number?
Oh, my God.
You and I matched on Hinge like three years ago.
Oh, yeah, now I remember.
Okay, okay.
How are you been?
You remember?
That is so sweet.
I wasn't sure, you know?
Neither was I until you said that.
Okay, I remember now.
So what have you been up to?
It's a funny story.
I ended up going to prison.
Is that hilarious?
Did you say prison?
Now I'm out.
Oh, shit.
Waiting to be raced, okay, by my dark night, who's been waiting for me.
Um, okay, I'm a little flattered but confused prison, you said?
Oh, my God, did I not ask, are you still single?
You better be single.
Yes, I'm still single.
You're looking for a girlfriend.
So you remember me, huh?
What do you remember?
Oh, you was a bad girl.
Are you saying that because I went to prison?
I don't know, but you okay now?
Don't change his subject or now.
I am.
I don't want to end up where you were.
I'm going to put some handcuffs on you later.
See what I mean?
Oh, goodness.
Yeah, you're a bad girl.
Does that make you a bad boy?
Oh, I always been a bad boy.
I just never got caught.
Oh, you're about to be caught.
So when you want me to wrap you up with these big arms and mine and bench press you?
I feel like I'm on the prison yard all over again.
I met one woman who tried that.
Oh, you tried it with a woman.
You got to try it with a man.
And I'm the man for you, baby.
Let's get it.
Now that you don't even care why I was in prison.
Don't, but you can tell me.
I'll save that for our first date.
Oh, really?
So I'm going to share a secret with you about prison.
I wrote down on my cell wall some of the things that you said to me over the app.
Oh, you did, huh?
So what was it did I say to make you write it on the wall?
You pretty thick for a white girl.
You remember that?
I remember that.
Wow.
Yeah, cut the shit.
Tell me what you're wearing.
What you got on.
I'm wearing headphones.
And I'm wearing a t-shirt with a khaki mom jacket and socks with sandals.
That don't sound sexy at all.
I mean, it sounds like you're really dressed.
I know.
Because it's not.
I've never met you on the apps.
This is actually Brooke from the radio show, Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
And your buddy Sean set you up for a break phone call.
Oh, God.
Oh, shoot.
You didn't really remember anyone named Julia Darnel.
It was worth to go.
It was worth to go.
I'm dead.
I did.
How do you not care that I went to prison?
You did your time.
rehabilitated.
You're a better person.
Forgiving man is a hot man.
Don't start with me. I'm going to ask you what you're wearing again,
and how are we going to get to that?
I'm still wearing socks with sandals.
Oh, shit. All I got is socks on right now.
Brook and Jeffrey's phone taps on the 20s.
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
A lot of people claim they would do anything.
for a friend.
Yeah.
Help them move.
Yeah.
Lend the money.
For sure.
Borrow their husband so you could get pregnant.
Whoa.
According to Brooke, that's what friends do.
Text in to 7-8-5-9-2 if you want to get pregnant by Brooke's husband.
That's what friends are for.
We love our listeners.
One of our listeners says she needs to do the opposite and ask one of her friends to stop doing
something.
Oh, no.
Because it's not just affecting her.
It's making her husband.
feel awkward too. We'll find out
if we can help her in a brand new awkward
Tuesday phone call next.
It's awkward. It's Tuesday.
It's awkward Tuesday phone call.
What's that old saying
Old fish
sell best in house?
No idea. It's good to keep
an old fish in your house?
No, no. Is it like... Do you know the
saying, Brooke? I really should have looked this up. It's my intro.
Something about house guests are like
fish. After three days, they start to stay.
Oh, that's the one. Is that it? Yes. I don't think that was, I wouldn't repeat it the way I said it, but I think that's the, I think it's guests like fish begin to smell after three days. Yeah. And that's exactly what we're dealing with today with one of our listeners, Molly, who's having a house guest issue. Apparently, it's a little bit of an overstay situation and she's requested our help. Molly, I want to just let you know you've come to the exact wrong place. But regardless, we're going to.
going to try to assist you in some type of way.
Tell us what made you email us.
Well, thank you. Yeah. My situation has spiraled into
some, I don't even know how to handle if that's why I'm calling.
But basically, I, you try to do the right thing and then it kind of bites you in the butt.
But anyway, I...
This is why you never do the right thing.
Yeah, I mean, that's how Jeff lives his life.
Exactly.
So this is your fault already, Molly.
What's going on?
So, all right.
So I'm married.
I don't have any kids or anything, but I live with my husband.
And I do have a friend.
This is a very good guy friend from college.
He doesn't live here.
But we've kept in touch over the years.
And about, I would, I guess at this point, maybe six months ago,
he had reached out to me and told me that he needed to come into town
for some sort of conference or something that was going on.
And he basically asked me if he could stay with me.
That's always strange.
Don't you think if it's like a work thing?
Yeah, I was thinking of that too.
Get a hotel.
Charge it to your work, man.
But maybe he yields his own business or something.
Yeah, that's true.
I feel bad for the big companies that have to pay for all their employees.
Like, that's not fair.
Let's give the billionaires a break.
Okay?
Stop making them fund everything.
Well, no, I hear you.
I just didn't really question it and was just like, oh, well, if he needs a place to say, of course, we have an extra room with a whole, you know, no one's in the extra room.
It's totally fine.
Oh, that's great.
Well, now I regret it.
Uh-uh.
Because...
Why?
For some reason, he keeps coming out here at least a couple times a month at this point.
Whoa, wait, wait.
Yeah.
It has essentially gotten to the point where I feel like I am living with a third person.
Wow.
So how many days does he stay when he comes?
It's usually maybe about three days or so, but it's like the frequency of it is all the time.
Well, not only like, because,
then you're having to change all the sheets and do the towel laundry.
And you should probably be changing sheets anyway, just regularly in your house.
Yeah, but you're having to do it on a bed that nobody typically sleeps in.
Like, you're doing more housework to house him.
Yeah.
Is he paying half the mortgage?
Because then we had no reason to call.
Yeah, if he's paying rent.
Right.
Well, on top of that, it used to be that he would call me or text me and ask me, hey, I'm coming these dates.
Is that okay?
confirm. Well, he has now gotten so comfortable that basically he just shows up at our door and
surprises us. And I get a doorbell. You know, I get the ring and he jokes and he's like, hey, it's
your roommate.
Oh, no. Funny to him. Not to you. I bet your husband loves this. I bet he is having so much fun
with this. Oh, he's not thrilled. And that's why I'm here because my friend, the guy, he actually
just left yesterday.
And when he left,
he asked me if I could
give him our garage door
code so that the next
time he comes, he doesn't have to bug us.
It's one thing that you show up
at my door now you want free
rain to access my house at any
point if I give you our code?
Deep breath. Deep breath.
I mean, it's good
that he feels so comfortable around you
and your husband that he feels like you're basically
like family and he can stop by any time, but it's gotten to the point where he's starting
to become too comfortable and it's overstaying his welcome.
You haven't set a boundary with him yet. So for him, he's like, this is all great. Everyone's
happy. I know, just so frustrating that someone can be that clueless. Yeah. That's where the
frustrating part is because it puts all of the onus on you. Not only do you want to save your
friendship, but you don't want him there that much. Yeah. It reminds me of when my mom comes in
and she's like, hey, can we come over?
And I'm like, again?
You were just here last year.
Like, I feel you is what I'm saying,
I lived with you as a child.
Yeah, we did 17 years together.
Wasn't that enough?
Is your college buddy always this kind of unaware of maybe social boundaries?
I never really noticed that before.
Maybe it's like a combination of me being just way too nice.
and yeah, not setting the boundary
and him just sort of ignorantly
going along with it.
I don't know.
And now, and so I need, obviously,
I need to tell him that
that's going a little too far.
We need to slow down the visits.
It's fine every once in a while,
but I can't have this all the time.
And I'm trying to somehow find a way
to talk to him about this
in some sort of way that's not so rude
because he's still my friend and I, you know?
Right.
And to him, he's like,
Like what? You have an extra room. What does it matter?
Yeah.
Molly, you're in luck because we actually have the queen of confrontation on this show.
Alexis loves confronting people face to face.
Especially when they're friends of hers.
Yeah.
Have you thought about changing your numbers shutting the blinds and changing the locks?
Just moving home.
So many options.
She could adopt a child and then turn it into a kid's room.
Yeah.
Suddenly there's no no guest room.
Oh my gosh.
There's places you can turn to, Molly, is what we're trying to say.
But we'll think of some advice.
We'll come back and we'll let you make your awkward Tuesday phone call right after this.
Hold on.
It's awkward.
It's Tuesday.
It's awkward Tuesday phone call.
How do you tell your good friend, hey, I love you, but you got to stop staying over at my house
every time you come in town for work?
That's the question our listener, Molly, has, because her guy friend has.
has become way too comfortable showing up at her place every time he's around, even asking for
her garage code most recently.
And that's causing stress not just for Molly, but for her husband too.
Yeah.
It's just, I mean, at this point, it's been going on every few weeks for months.
So she wants to have that conversation with her friend.
How does she evict him from her home politely?
Yeah.
In a friendly way.
Yeah.
Brooke, you're great at doing fake politeness.
So what's your advice for Molly?
That's rude. I was backhanded.
My God.
Well, okay, I do think that you need to first lead with positives.
Like how much fun it is to see him and how happy you have been to see him and reconnect.
There's that fake politeness.
But then that's true.
That's true.
But I think then you add that your guys' water bill has been so high because I'm sure it has been in your house so much.
That you and your husband are restricting to shower days.
only on Tuesdays.
So if he's going to say,
no showers allowed,
unless he's there on a Tuesday.
Molly, what do you think about that?
I don't know. I'm just worried that
he'd be like, oh, well, that's okay.
I don't need to shower.
Oh, that's not good.
Yeah.
I just assumed he'd want to look more put together
before a business conference.
Sure, but hey, that's just one piece of advice.
Jose, what do you have to offer?
My advice on these many times is to blame,
someone else.
Love it.
Just like my advice today.
Okay.
So you blame this all on your husband.
Oh, it's right.
I see.
You just say he's feeling so insecure
because he thinks you saw
him in the shower.
Oh.
Back to the showers.
We're less impressed.
Molly, what do you think about that?
Accused him of peeking in
on your husband while being.
Oh my goodness.
See?
That's your reaction.
You thought Brooks' advice was questionable.
We could go so much weird.
Remember, back to moving.
Cutting off contact.
All right.
So while you're completely speechless, Molly, I'm just going to dial your friend and let you make your awkward Tuesday phone call.
Oh, gosh.
I feel like I should say sorry.
Okay.
Your advice already did, Brooke.
So blame it on your husband who's not well-endowed.
Okay.
That's why I say.
So many gold nuggets to pick from on this show.
You get to pick which one you want to use, but I'm going to dial your friend's number right now.
Here we go.
Okay.
Rick, it's Molly.
Oh, hey.
Hey, Molly, you're up.
Yeah, yeah.
How are you?
I'm great.
Seems like I haven't talked to you in years.
What's going on?
Well, I mean, yeah, we just saw each other yesterday.
Yeah, I know.
I was kidding, Rooney.
Right, right.
Well, listen, that's actually kind of why I'm calling you today.
I love getting reconnected and it's been fun.
having you over. But I think it's just gotten to be a little bit too much. Unfortunately,
we're starting to see an increase in our bills because it's like that frequent.
And increase in what bills? What do you mean?
Like, you know, our water bill. Our water our water bill a lot.
Molly, you should have told me. That's not right. I can do something about that.
There's no way you could have known this. But from my job,
I have an entire trunk full of bottled waters.
Like, I'll bring them in.
Well, that's really kind of you.
There's more than I can drink, so, you know, I'm happy to bring him in.
Listen, I think it's beyond, it's a little bit beyond that at this point,
it's just not working, Rick, anymore.
And we have to cut back on the visits.
And my husband and I, we need a break for a little bit.
Oh, okay.
I see.
This is not exactly what I thought it was going to be.
Okay.
Well, let me ask you this.
Could I counter with maybe give me 60 days?
What?
60 days?
60 days.
Yeah, I know.
That sounds a little weird, but it would really help.
I'm kind of in a bind.
Well, what, I mean, what, be honest with me.
Like, what's going on?
I don't really, the whole thing has been a little confusing to me.
And you're going to think this is so funny.
Okay, so when I started staying with you and you've been a gracious host and I really appreciate it, when I started staying with you, I was gainfully employed, but I am not anymore.
I haven't had a job in about three weeks now.
I got laid off.
And I don't really want my fiance to find out about it.
So I've been just kind of waiting until we're married, which is going to happen in 59 days.
Oh, my gosh.
So if you could maybe help me out a little bit, you'd be really doing me a solid.
I'm just trying to understand.
Like, you're afraid that if you tell Megan that you lost your job that she would leave you?
I don't think that she, I don't think that would be their first reaction.
But her parents are a different story.
They're very strict and very judgy.
And if they were to find out I don't have a job, I don't think they would be happy if she married me.
I mean, this is not my place.
It really is not my place to say anything,
but I think you lying to her all this time is much worse, in my opinion.
No, I hear what you're saying, and I know where you're coming from.
So I was thinking maybe there's something here that can be good for all of us.
Maybe this coming weekend I could come and stay at your place and you and your husband could get an Airbnb or something.
Would you be open to that?
That's a great idea.
His problem solving is so bad.
Who's with you? What is this?
House party.
Do you have a party?
No, yeah.
I mean, it's a radio party, Rick.
Because you're on the radio party.
Yeah, you're on a show right now called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
Oh, man.
Oh, you like the actual radio.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wait, what?
We're doing a segment with Molly right now called the awkward Tuesday phone call because she reached out to us.
Oh, okay.
So do you not have a place to stay at all?
Like you can't afford your apartment right now?
No, I have a place to stay.
I have a fiance.
It's just my job kept me going on business trips and she thinks I still have a job.
So she still, if he still stays home?
Oh, wait.
You're just wanting to stay there to keep up the ruse?
All I need is another 59 days and I'm good.
Listen, if you don't want me in the house, maybe I can stay in the garage.
Just tell your fiance
collectively lie together to her parents.
Yay.
Yes.
Good couples lie together.
See, this is why we have Alexis on the show.
She knows when to put the lies and where to put them.
That's right.
You and your conflict queen?
Yeah, a conflict queen comes through.
Okay, Rick, I'm trying to help you as your friend.
I am trying to help you.
I appreciate it.
He cuts her off.
But she's not getting an Airbnb, Rick, so that you can live in her house.
I am not getting an Airbnb.
me. My marriage is on the line at this point.
That's what I'm trying to say. You should go on a vacation.
No.
She's being really polite and not telling you that you being around at their house all the time is causing a lot of strain on her marriage.
Yeah. They need time.
You've got to have more trust in your fiancé. Trust that she'll support you. I know it's probably a scary conversation to have.
But it's always like you think about things beforehand. They're really scary. And then once you have the combo, not that big of.
a deal.
Yeah, and Rick, I think this is a bigger problem.
If you don't feel comfortable telling her what's happening in your life and you feel
more comfortable lying to her, then maybe you should think about if she's really the
person you should be marrying.
We've got to end this.
We're talking too real now.
Maybe you should think about if you want help telling this to her, we can slot next
week's awkward Tuesday phone call to reach out to your fiancé and break the news of
your recent unemployment.
That'll be fun.
I mean, the good news of that is that we do do it for free.
Yeah.
No confidence.
I need
I need witnesses.
Okay.
Wait.
Are you agreeing?
Did you say yes?
I think it might be easier
than being alone.
Oh my God.
All right.
We'll do this for you
as long as you can agree,
you got to give Molly
and her husband a little bit of space.
I don't know.
Can he just stay at Molly's house
for one night while we do this call?
Yeah.
We got over a week.
Fly on the wall.
Maybe you can stay at Brooks house
while we think of good advice to give you.
You all have houses, right?
What?
She has no little houses?
You know, we'll be in touch with you, Rick.
Okay.
Yeah, we'll see if she's got an open house to lend.
Okay.
Molly, I feel like we accomplished something here, and we're going to deal with Rick's problems next week.
I mean, that's a win-win situation for me.
I want Rick to be happy.
I want him to have a happy, healthy marriage.
And I can't, like, help him continue to lie to his fiance.
That's good.
That's where we come in.
Rick, wait till you meet the conflict queen.
Her name is Alexis.
And she's going to help you out so good.
I might be sick next week.
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
Well, look at that.
An awkward call leads to another awkward call
coming up next week.
Oh, man, is this going to be like the clown
and the handkerchief?
We're every week for the end of time.
That's right.
Endless cycles, Jose.
Just like the Russian nesting dolls.
Yeah.
Well, we don't need closure on this one, though.
We will have to call the fiancée.
his parents apparently who really suck
and aren't very considerate.
But it is going to be difficult to keep the ruse up for another week
before we have him back on.
And this next one's going to be even harder
because now he has to tell his fiance
hey, hon, please don't stop wanting to marry me
after I lied to you for weeks about losing my job
while I spent time living with another family.
Okay.
The living with the other family is a little hard.
But the rest of it, if you don't want to marry someone,
because they lost their job, then you shouldn't be getting married to that.
They are terrible people.
That's a good point. You're obviously being married for money.
Yes.
Well, that's good. I'm just glad Brooke and Jose have to give the advice.
Won't break up a wedding. So no pressure, you too.
That's why I will never be the first prince of America or whatever.
I don't care how many women want to ask me to be their husband.
What a good stance for you to take, Jose.
Yeah, I am no trophy.
Yeah.
If you want to hear that next awkward Tuesday, you better subscribe to the podcast.
Hit that button and stay with us.
I want you to close your eyes and imagine.
Okay.
A magical place filled with bright, colorful Lederhosen.
What?
Where the beer flows like water.
Oh.
Wow.
The pretzels and cheese flow like water.
Oh, there's a lot of water.
Wait, how are the pretzels flowing?
And the water flows like...
Like water probably.
Something.
Probably water.
No, not water.
I don't know.
This was a bad example.
Okay.
You're a terrible storymaker.
Yeah.
Here's what I do know.
The people there are so lit, they're talking in German tongues.
I like water.
Wait, what do you say about water?
It's like water.
Oh.
I'm of course talking about October Fest.
Oh, I thought it was like a water park.
It was a huge party that happened over the weekend with no water in sight.
So we sent our very own Alexis and Jose down to the event with some schnitzel in one hand.
And a microfo boves and hoves and heart.
Hosen and the other.
To ask people a simple question, what's you doing at October Fest?
We're going to play you the audio coming up right now.
It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, and the calendar may not say October right now,
but the Germans don't let a stupid calendar tell them when to do October Fest.
The annual festival dedicated all the greatest parts of German culture.
Beer, more beer.
And Liederhausen stained with B.
beer. And you don't even have to be in Munich's to celebrate. And that's why we sent our own, Jose and Alexis, down to the local festivities to ask the good people attending what should have been a very simple question. What's you doing at October Fest?
What's you doing at October Fest? Hey, what up? I'm out here drinking beer through this really silly straw right now.
Yeah, that's why I came up to you. You have a pink straw that's like, I don't know how to, can you describe it for someone who can't see?
Yeah, here, get the, get the draw.
The straw.
Oh, you're going to try a drink.
It's too quiet.
But yeah, this straw, it's my inspiration, my life.
I use pink as the accent color to really guide me in my day-to-day processes to be a better man.
What do you have to say to haters of this straw and beer?
Grow up.
Them grow up, not you with the kids straw.
No, stay young forever.
Grow up and stay young forever at the same time.
Most of this message.
Yeah.
The message in there.
point like wait them grow up or you grow up I have a feeling he just saw somewhere like on
reddit or something that if you drink beer out of a straw you get drunk quicker yeah yeah
yeah you'll throw up quicker that's probably true for sure it's what you're doing at october
fest where hosane alexus went down to the big local beer celebration to ask a simple question
what you're doing on october fest drinking man you know and drinking the beer you just tried to
Cheers. You tried to cheers my mic, I think.
You want to cheers?
Cheers.
Should I cheers your mic?
Okay.
Hey, you got a big old, what's those called?
Steins?
It isn't Stein.
I don't know, dude.
I'm not, I'm not familiar with this shit.
Oh, wait a minute.
I thought you were.
You're like in a full leader hose in with the hat.
You have a feather in your cat, bro.
Yeah.
It looks like sound of music.
Yeah.
But you don't know what's going on.
No, man.
I'm just drinking.
Do you know how you got here?
No, I have no idea how I got here.
Okay, so I'm here.
Let's keep backing up.
a little bit. I want to help you, my friend. Oh, he's taking a big swing as I'm asking.
Help. That's the thing.
Oh, how did you get in the outfit? If you don't know how you got here, like,
I'm just here, man. I'm here. I'm living in the moment and that's it.
Wow. So vividly descriptive.
Does that mean he put on the leader hosen and the cap with plans to go somewhere else?
Oh, that's a good question. You know what I'm saying? You dress for it.
I'm guessing that he snuck underneath a fence in order to get in there and just wound up
an outfit and isn't sure.
I don't know.
You guys really know how to choose the cream of the crop whenever you attend these events.
But when you have a guy who's that articulate, you got to keep the interview going.
That's why Jose asked the same dude a few more questions.
And our producer says he did not disappoint.
What's it like with the ladies around here?
Is this a good spot to mingle a little bit?
There's some talent here.
You know what I mean?
Some talent here and there.
You know what I mean?
It's great.
Now, how would you compare German girls to America?
I don't even know what German girls are because I've been in America my whole life
I mean I can't really like talk about German chicks I've never been to Germany you know
what I mean I've never been to Germany so I can I how can I talk about German chicks if I've
never been to Germany that's a good point do you have any German background
no I got family there but I just never visited you visited bro I'm broke at shit
Yeah, I have German ancestors, but I don't have any relation to Germany.
I currently have family living there.
You know, it was shocking to me.
I was really surprised he wasn't a more well-traveled guy.
Yeah.
He doesn't even know how he gets places.
He really came off as a man of the world.
He probably has been to Germany.
He just forgot that he was there.
Oh, that's where he got the outfit.
But I do like that he's prudent enough to not want to speak on something unless he's an absolute expert.
Yeah, a lot of respect for that guy.
That's a good guy.
And let's go to the next one, which is from Alexis.
And apparently for this clip, she tried to do something new.
A little bit different than the usual question.
She'll be five beers and I get crazy.
Alexis, you were drinking for this event?
No, I was joking.
Oh.
Alexis didn't know what she was either.
So shocking how you always got busted in high school.
Let's hear it.
Normally I ask what you do in October fact,
but I pulled you two randoms here to do a quick,
Octoberfest style speed dating.
I'm so excited.
I can't even...
I, you know, I am speechless, frankly.
I've not been able to speak a word.
If you're dressed in,
what's the name of the German dress again?
Dirtle.
You're dressed in it, yes?
Yes, that's what I'm wearing.
We'll start with the guy first.
Can you give me your best German-style pickup line?
Will you twist my pretzel?
Oh, yeah.
That's it.
You're not going to play hard to get it all?
That was off the dome and I don't think I have anything better than that.
Am I supposed to...
Can you say something more than y'all?
Like a little...
Not so easy.
Come on.
Let's...
Okay.
Um...
No.
Oh, she got you, Alexis.
Yeah.
She just got whiny.
Good thing I pushed her for that answer.
Yeah.
You could tell they did not want to do that game whatsoever.
I know.
What was talking about?
You didn't spark love and they didn't fall.
off into the German sunset together holding hands with her and her.
What is it called Dirtle?
Dirtle.
I don't know.
She was like, Dirtle.
Is that what you're wearing?
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's the clothes that I'm wearing.
Okay, so everyone remember, that's what she's wearing.
Could there be a more unsexy word for a piece of clothing?
I know.
That's Germany for you.
I hope she twisted his pretzel by the end.
Oh, that would be sweet.
That was what you're doing at October Fest.
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning
Win
Fun fact for those of you who don't know
Brooke was actually named
after the ancient Greek
demon of trivia
Brooke Dusa
and instead of snakes for hair
she had tiny question marks
and anybody who made eye contact
instantly turned into a giant
Reese's cup
that's why I have to wear glasses
so that it doesn't
because it blocks it for you guys
my thick lenses
You're welcome.
I am very thankful to be in the presence of Brooke Dusa,
but I won't look directly at her because we all know what happens.
But today you're going to be playing Sam, who was on two years ago and lost.
So Sam, welcome back to the show.
Don't look directly into Brooke Dusa's eyes.
No, I'll weld out this time.
Okay, good.
This time.
He learned his lesson last time.
He spent two years as a peanut butter cup.
It was a hard life for him.
Everybody was after him.
How you feeling today, Sam?
You feeling confident?
Yes.
It's so 83 degrees.
It's going to be 83 where I'm at today.
Wow.
What's traffic looking like over there?
Traffic right now is pretty good.
I like this.
I think maybe we should keep you as our traffic guy going forward.
But let's go to the game.
You got 30 seconds to answer as many as possible.
If you don't know when you can say pass,
but you have to beat her outright if you want to win.
Are you ready?
Yes.
Let's go.
Your time starts now.
Today is the first day of fall.
Does that mean today is the Equinox or the Solstice?
Solstice.
In 2013, what famous monopoly board piece was replaced with a cat?
Was it the car, thimble, or iron?
The iron.
What is nicknamed the Cornhusker State?
Minnesota.
In ancient Rome, which fruit was called the Persian apple?
The pear.
Founded on June 14th, 7075.
Which branch of the military came first?
Navy, Army, or the Marines?
Marines.
All right, Sam.
Duce is coming back and it says on my screener here, my producer was talking to you where you are.
Okay, this is making more sense.
It says that you're on the road to Los Angeles right now for a fun travel event and you weren't sharing the details with him, which is fine.
You don't have to.
I'm assuming it's CuddleCon and I will meet you there, my friend, wink.
You can always find him at the bottom of the pile.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think that laugh is excitement.
Sounds like you nailed it, Joe.
I think I did.
It's hard to keep secrets on this show.
Am I close with why you're going to L.A.?
Yes.
Okay.
We won't ask for any more details.
I'll get those from you in person.
But now it is Brooke's turn.
Brooke, are you ready?
Yes.
Your time starts now.
Today is the first day of fall.
Does that mean today is the Equinox or the Solstice?
Equinox.
In 2013, what famous monopoly board piece was replaced with a cat?
Was it the car, thimble, or iron?
Thimble.
What is nicknamed the corn husker state?
Iowa.
In ancient Rome, which fruit was called the Persian apple?
A pear?
Founded on June 14, 7075.
Which branch of the military came first, Navy, Army, or the Marines?
Army.
What is the French word for me?
Mois.
Brooks always trying to kiss me.
All right.
Let's go to the scoreboard.
We're going to see how you both did with our own Jose.
69, dude.
Balanos.
Yeah, text nice into 7-8-5-9-2 if you get it.
Sam, you got one correct today.
Oh, Sam.
Oh, the pair.
Yeah.
Brooke, you got three.
Oh, Sam.
I'm sorry, man.
It wasn't enough to beat Brooke today, but we'll hug it out when we're at CuddleCon together.
Let's go over the answers to everybody.
Today is the first day of fall.
That means it is the first day of fall.
the equinox, meaning equal
night, because day and night are both
about 12 hours long. Yeah, it's starting
to get darker in the morning. In 2013,
the monopoly
board piece that was replaced with a cat
was the iron. Yes. That was
the one that you got, right, Sam.
The state that's nicknamed, the corn husker state
would be Nebraska. Oh, nothing
but corn there. In ancient
Rome, the fruit that was called the
Persian apple was actually the peach.
Oh, interesting. Peaches.
Oh, I don't know what this happens.
CuddleCon starting early.
I know.
Save some for me, Sam.
Geez.
Founded in June 14th, 1775.
The Army was the first branch of the military.
Navy was next, followed by the Marines.
And the French word for me would be,
Muha.
I was thinking Miss Piggy.
Yeah.
Sam, I'm sorry, wasn't enough to beat Brooke,
but just for playing, we're giving you a pair of tickets to see the Seattle
Mariner's take on the Los Angeles Angels on Friday, September 25th for fireworks night
presented by moving 92.5.
All right.
Well, that sounds fun.
Oh, yeah.
Well, Sam, are you going to wait another two years to call back and try again?
No, try again as soon as I could.
There you go.
That was almost sentences.
I believe you.
I believe you.
We'll have you back, man.
All right, man.
You enjoy L.A. come back soon.
We're going to win Brooks Buck's same time tomorrow.
I'm going.
