It's time for to catch a cheater. And if you've been listening the past two days, this one is crazy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We have Taylor and Samantha on the phone and we're about to call Matt, who's
definitely cheating.
Yes.
But we did a to catch a cheater the other day with Taylor.
Hey Taylor.
Hi.
And Taylor thought he was cheating
so we called him and did the usual
thing.
And then when he came on the phone
said no he wasn't cheating sounded
legit.
But right after Taylor got off the
phone we got a phone call from
Samantha.
Hello Samantha.
Hi.
And Samantha informed us
that she's Matt's wife and she heard him
So we got Samantha and Taylor on the phone yesterday to see if this actually is the same guy and
It sure sounds like it's the same guy and he says he travels a lot for work. So
Taylor he said he's in New York
Mm-hmm. Yeah, and he told me he's in California right now.
He told his girlfriend, his girlfriend of three years, they just moved in together
six months ago, Taylor, that is in New York.
His wife of five years that he's in California.
How do you do that?
And when we talked to you guys yesterday, we were going to try to play it off for a
day so that we can call him and catch him on the air, because obviously he's lying to both of you and it's terrible.
I mean he's married to one of you and he's been another one for three years.
How was yesterday for you guys?
Go ahead Samantha.
He sent me like a text to like check in after dinner and like saying it was crazy and you
know I like liked it but I think like my anger yesterday, I still, I still have like my anger, but
it's, I'm kind of like a little more sad today, but still like honestly ready to
stick it to him and like catch him in a way where he cannot explain his way out
of it, but he has no idea.
We didn't talk on the phone and.
Okay.
So I actually did talk to him and it was so on the top. Like it was just so like he was
just showering me with like, I love you. I miss you. Like it was so like, and now it's
just so clear to me that it's like a cover up because I obviously called him out on it
and now he's like laying the like the veil sticker if you will. I don't know the right analogy as my brain's like broken right now but it is I
just like told him I stick to my stomach and I had to go. Yeah. Now if you didn't know
what you know now Taylor based off of those conversations would you have just thought
everything was normal? Yeah. 100% man. This guy is nuts. Yeah. That's that's the problem is he's a really good liar.
I'm seeing like he's like we've had some cheating incidents before and like him talking to like
past girlfriend from college and it's like I've been thinking about it the past day and
I'm like he has a way of like putting it back on me and like making me feel crazy
for bringing it up or being worried or anything but it's like I'm worried because of your
actions sure right so messed up it's what you're doing that like not me and it's like
I see it so clearly now that that's what he does like this this is his like, this is his MO.
Like, and so I want to throw it back in his face now.
Like, he deserves it.
Yeah, because he's clearly like the Oscar level sociopath.
I can't even believe, I just don't know who I've been living with.
Okay. Yeah, I mean, it's crazy.
Well, we'll play a song, come back, and we're not going to do the usual like groceries
or flowers thing.
Cause obviously we did that with him two days ago.
So, um, we're just going to call him and, um, when he comes on, he's going to be shook
hearing both of you guys on the phone.
Yeah.
I'm just ready for this to be done.
I'm ready to like, just be like, call him out.
Yeah.
Let's do this.
Yeah, I'm super ready for that too.
And mostly I just, I want to, I want to hear from him.
I want him to know that I know.
And I've already fully started packing his stuff up.
Good!
Okay, good.
You can find that all in luggage
and like it's going on the lawn.
All right, well we'll play a song, come back
and then we'll call them.
Okay.
Okay. Great. Thank you.
All right. We'll get you to catch Cheater next.
I'm Andrea Gunning, host of the podcast, Betrayal.
Police Lieutenant Joel Kern used his badge to fool everyone.
Most of all, his wife, Caroline.
He texted, I've ruined our lives.
You're going to want to divorce me.
Caroline's husband was living another life behind the scenes.
He betrayed his oath to his family and to his community.
She said you left bruises, pulled her hair, that type of thing.
No.
How far would Joel go to cover up what he'd done?
You're unable to keep track of all your lies, and quite frankly, No. How far would Joel go to cover up what he'd done?
You're unable to keep track of all your lies and quite frankly, I question how many other
women may bring forward allegations in the future.
This season of Betrayal investigates one officer's decades of deception.
Lies that left those closest to him questioning everything they thought they knew.
Listen to Betrayal on the iHeart radio app,
Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Have you ever thought about going voiceover?
I'm Hope Woodard, a comedian, creator,
and seeker of male validation.
To most people, I'm the girl behind voiceover,
the movement that exploded in 2024.
VoiceOver is about understanding yourself outside of sex and relationships.
It's more than personal.
It's political, it's societal, and at times, it's far from what I originally intended
it to be.
These days, I'm interested in expanding what it means to be voiceover,
to make it customizable for anyone who feels the need to explore their relationship to relationships.
I'm talking to a lot of people who will help us think about how we love each other.
It's a very, very normal experience to have times where a relationship is prioritizing other parts
of that relationship
that are being naked together.
How we love our family.
I've spent a lifetime trying to get my mother to love me, but the price is too high.
And how we love ourselves.
Singleness is not a waiting room. You are actually at the party right now.
Let me hear it.
Listen to VoiceOver on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
She was a decorated veteran, a Marine who saved her comrades, a hero.
She was stoic, modest, tough, someone who inspired people.
Everyone thought they knew her, until they didn't.
I remember sitting on her couch and asking her, is this real? Is this real? Is this real? Is this real?
I just couldn't wrap my head around what kind of person would do that to another person that was getting treatment, that was dying.
This is a story all about trust and about a woman named Sarah Kavanaugh.
I've always been told I'm a really good listener, right?
And I maximized that while I was lying.
Listen to Deep Cover, The Truth About Sarah on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or
wherever you get your podcasts.
A lot of times the big economic forces we hear about on the news show up in our lives
in small ways.
Three or four days a week, I would buy two cups of banana pudding, but the price has
gone up.
So now I only buy one.
The demand curve in action. And that's just one of the things we'll be covering on
everybody's business from Bloomberg Businessweek. I'm Max Chafkin.
And I'm Stacey Vanek-Smith. Every Friday we will be diving into the biggest
stories in business, taking a look at what's going on, why it matters and how it
shows up in our everyday lives.

Hey, I wanna learn about VeChain.

It's time.
To catch a cheater.
Only on the Jubal Show.
If you're just joining us for today's To Catch a Cheater,
we're about to call Matt.
And it's been like a three day long thing.
So if you missed the other day, this happened.
So Matt and I have been together for like three years,
but only have been living together for like six months.
And he recently got a job promotion
that has had him travel a lot.
And he came home to like make perfume,
and now I'm concerned.
The lady on the plane,
like the part that I didn't tell you is that like,
she like fell asleep on my shoulder
That's probably why the scent got so intense. So I was like great, you know this
You know smell is probably gonna linger on me and sure enough
I guess you know, like I love you and I want to be with you forever and
You know, we'll get through this in a moment
Okay, I'm just I'm so sorry. I I'm thinking that you would have cheated on me
And then once we got off the phone with Taylor this happened
Samantha hi. Yes. I've been trying to call in this like entire time. Okay
What's that? What's that? That sounds identical to my no that that is my husband. What?
That's my I'm like, I'm so confused.
I'm shaking.
I don't know what's going on.
I don't know why my husband's on the radio with you guys.
So the call that we just did with...
Yeah, and then he's saying he's married to this woman.
I don't understand.
That's my husband.
And so the next day,
we got both of them on the phone together
so they could compare notes and see if it is the same guy.
And it turns out it is the same guy.
I can't believe that.
Samantha has been married to him for five years.
Taylor has been his girlfriend for three.
They just moved in together six months ago and he's out of town.
He told Taylor that he's in New York and Samantha he said he's in California.
Yeah.
Okay.
And I get tired
I'm keeping up with all his lies and so we're about to call him right now and get
him on the phone so that Samantha his wife and Taylor his girlfriend can
confront him and go hey I know you're cheating and also I met your wife and I
met your girlfriend and both of them are on the phone he's gonna like he's not
gonna know what hit him no not at all are you guys ready to give
him a call yeah yeah okay here we go
hello this is Jeremy hey I was looking for Matt oh Matt must be the owner of
this phone I work at Jamba Juice
and somebody left this phone here maybe an hour ago and so I was answering it
hoping it was the person okay so somebody left the phone there yeah yeah
just sitting on the counter Jamba Juice in what city Tucson Arizona Campbell Tucson, Arizona, Campbell Plaza. Oh, what the f**k is Matt doing in Arizona?
Oh my God.
Hey Jeremy.
Yeah.
We'll try to get a hold of Matt some other way.
Did you see the guy who left the phone by chance?
Um, no, I think my coworker, Erica.
I just want to know if he was alone. Yeah, I was a guy with a hat. If you speak to him, just tell him his phone's here at
Campbell Plaza and we'll keep it in the lost and found.
Got you. Thanks Jeremy.
Have a sunshiney day.
You too, bye.
What the f**k is he doing on Arizona?
I don't know that he knows anyone in Tucson.
Definitely not for work.
I was just going to say, does he have work there?
He's never said he's gone there on a business trip, so I have no idea what he's doing there.
This is unreal.
Okay, so Samantha, he told you that he's in California.
Yeah, in San Diego.
And Taylor, he told you he's in New York.
Yeah.
And his phone, is that a Jamba Juice in New York. And his phone.
Is that a Jamba Juice in Tucson?
He is, dude.
What in the world?
I just can't believe he's been doing this for so long.
How blind?
Could he be in Tucson for work?
Why would he lie?
I don't know.
I don't know.
Would somebody else have his phone?
Is there any reason? Is it a work phone that we're calling? If you're lying to two different
people, I wonder if his story is like just got messed up. So maybe he really isn't. He's
off our work. And then he's just telling them that he's in other places. So they be so used
to lying. I don't even know what to say. I'm just pissed. I'm angry. I'm hurt. I am. I'm
literally going to lose my mind and I don't know where he is. But this is bullsh** and I am so angry.
I know you already put his stuff out on the lawn or whatever, but I'm about it to set it on fire.
Well, don't get yourself in trouble just because this guy's a loser.
Oh, my God. This is insane.
This is just complete insanity.
So if he left his phone there, how would you get a hold of him?
He leaves things like all the time.
Like he's always like losing his keys and stuff.
So he'll just retrace his steps.
He's gonna come back for it.
Okay, yeah.
I mean, he's gonna have to get his phone at some point.
Yeah.
Hopefully he knows it's at the Jamba Juice
or he'll get a new phone or something.
I don't know.
I'm honestly, I'm ready to just nail him and to just
Embarrass him I just want him honestly super embarrassed and then I want to like hear his voice when I tell him all
Of your stuff is packed. It's on the lawn. I'm gonna divorce you like everything like I'm
Now honestly, yeah whenever we do get him on the phone
He's gonna be hit with,
hey, your wife knows you're cheating
with your girlfriend of three years.
Also, they both know that you're in Tucson
and not in California and New York.
And now you have no place to live, sucker.
I know how we can get him.
How, producer Brad?
Yeah, so I've been thinking about this a lot.
A lot of people want follow-ups to catch a cheater,
especially when they're happy.
They wanna check in on the happy couple, right?
I think we I email him today say hey we want to do a follow-up with you that way
He knows he's talking to the show. He's gonna answer the phone
Okay, we want to get you on and we want to talk about how great it is to celebrate non cheaters

Hey, I'm down to play a role. I can act I can pretend that it's all about doing some fun follow up on the radio and play
That is you
Okay, it's
Multiple women I can tell him that you guys like email me to like talk to us and then I'll start talking to him
And then I can like sneak attack
Okay, now you're talking.
Well, here's what I'm gonna do though.
I'm gonna email both of you at the same time.
Oh yeah.
I want to reduce the pressure on you a little bit.
I'm gonna email you both at the same time.
And when I do that email, when you get that email,
you can text him and say,
we're famous or something like that.
Yeah.
But I don't want you to have to say too many words here.
I don't want you to have to play too big of a role
because I just want it to be quiet
until then.
