Speaker 1: It's awkward. It's it's awkward Tuesday phone call.
Speaker 2: Where we've been doing a segment on our show recently
Speaker 2: called the mass Speaker, where if someone has a big
Speaker 2: confession that they want to make while staying anonymous, Yeah,
Speaker 2: we can change their voice.
Speaker 1: So we can do that right here on the show.
Speaker 3: Mask the voice.
Speaker 2: But what if it's more than just wanting to get
Speaker 2: something off your chest? What if they actually need to
Speaker 2: tell someone and they want help on how to say
Speaker 2: it to them. Wait, that's where the awkward Tuesday phone
Speaker 2: call can come in, and it's the right fit for
Speaker 2: today's caller.
Speaker 1: Seth.
Speaker 2: Seth, we are not altering your voice, and what did
Speaker 2: you do?
Speaker 4: It sounds so much worse. It's not great.
Speaker 3: It's not great. But it's not that bad, is what
Speaker 3: you're saying.
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know. I guess I'll let you
Speaker 4: have to. Let you guys decide. It's it's sticky, for sure.
Speaker 1: You do not okay, Sticky, you came to the right place, Seth.
Speaker 3: Jeffrey was going to jump all let's.
Speaker 2: Start by finding out who you need to confess to.
Speaker 2: Who are we going to be talking to today?
Speaker 4: Well, it's actually my fiance yes, that just escalated.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so there's a lot on the line. How long
Speaker 5: have you kept whatever this is from.
Speaker 3: Her or him?
Speaker 4: Three years and three months?
Speaker 3: Whoa?
Speaker 5: So you you know, like this is an incident because
Speaker 5: if you know the exact.
Speaker 4: Date, I mean, I can't stop thinking about it and
Speaker 4: it's kind of screwing me up.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, tell us about your fiance. What's their name?
Speaker 4: Her name is Tany, and we have been engaged for
Speaker 4: three months. We started dating about three years before that,
Speaker 4: so we got engaged on our three year anniversary.
Speaker 5: And so you've been holding this from her literally your
Speaker 5: entire relationship.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it came up for a reason. So back
Speaker 4: in the day, we started as co workers and became
Speaker 4: friends first. Okay, it's like always had a crush on her,
Speaker 4: but she was always dating other guys, and it's just
Speaker 4: I never really had a chance. It's crazy some girls,
Speaker 4: Like I literally was talking to a girl a couple
Speaker 4: of weeks ago, just got out of a relationship.
Speaker 3: She's like, I need sick some time for me.
Speaker 2: Two weeks later, are another relationship.
Speaker 4: I'm like, oh, yes, totally. And especially if you're interested
Speaker 4: in someone, you don't want to just be a rebound.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you don't want to.
Speaker 4: But then if you wait too much time, then you
Speaker 4: totally miss your window.
Speaker 1: I feel you, bro, It's like it's such a timing thing.
Speaker 4: It is.
Speaker 5: That is a predicament for sure, But if you wait
Speaker 5: too long, be gone. The good news is you timed
Speaker 5: it right because you guys started dating.
Speaker 4: Well yeah, but that's okay, so I might have timed
Speaker 4: it right and also taken some action. Whoa what? So
Speaker 4: before we even got together, just friends, she was going
Speaker 4: out with this guy, just dating, but she'd really excited
Speaker 4: about him, and she'd tell me about him after their
Speaker 4: first initial dates. Super good looking dentist like volunteer work
Speaker 4: for his came from a pretty rich family. Apparently like
Speaker 4: brutal dude.
Speaker 3: She was dating Prince Harry exactly what it.
Speaker 2: Sounds like, and you had to hear all about it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and of course I got jealous.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: So one night when we're hanging out at her place,
Speaker 4: we sort of stopped off in between a happy hour
Speaker 4: and then going back out with another group of friends.
Speaker 5: Okay, so it's just YouTube back at her place when
Speaker 5: you were still friends.
Speaker 4: Right, exactly for like a beer bathroom re up and
Speaker 4: then we'll go. And so she left her phone out
Speaker 4: and I look over and I see that it vibrates,
Speaker 4: and it's a text from the other guy and he's
Speaker 4: asking her out on like a probably like a third date.
Speaker 5: Oh okay, mister mister perfect.
Speaker 4: And I panicked. I definitely didn't want them to keep
Speaker 4: going out. So I went into her phone and deleted
Speaker 4: the tech. Oh and then I went into the contacts
Speaker 4: and I changed the guy's phone number, and then I
Speaker 4: went and I blocked his real number. So she thought
Speaker 4: that he just ghosted her, and she was obviously upset
Speaker 4: for a while, but I was there for her. And
Speaker 4: because I was there for that led us being together
Speaker 4: for the last three years.
Speaker 5: Wow, you are an evil genius.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: No, I never would have thought of taking the next
Speaker 2: step to make sure they can never reach each other again.
Speaker 1: It's so smart.
Speaker 3: Blocking was a good movie.
Speaker 4: I was kind of taking a risk, like maybe they
Speaker 4: were already connected on like Snapchatter, Instagram.
Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah, but it's one of those things like when
Speaker 5: you're dating somebody and you're only a couple dates in,
Speaker 5: you're not gonna look so thirsty that then you're gonna
Speaker 5: DM them on a bunch of different social media platforms.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so what happened?
Speaker 4: Well, I mean ever since our relationship has been so amazing,
Speaker 4: Like I basically have forgotten about it. It's been so long,
Speaker 4: but now we're trying to do it right and like
Speaker 4: a really good solid foundation for relationships that we've been
Speaker 4: doing like this pre marriage counseling, and the counselor said
Speaker 4: how important it is for us to be completely open
Speaker 4: and honest about everything from a base level that we had,
Speaker 4: like start with a really clean slate.
Speaker 5: Do you think so you're feeling guilty because you're sitting
Speaker 5: in counseling and being like, yes, honesty very important.
Speaker 3: Holding this from her?
Speaker 4: I have told her everything except for this one thing.
Speaker 3: Do you think she'll be upset?
Speaker 4: Wouldn't you?
Speaker 3: I don't know. I mean it's been three years, like.
Speaker 4: And you're in love now.
Speaker 3: I mean, it wouldn't have been for your move.
Speaker 2: It was sketchy, right you guys wouldn't be where you
Speaker 2: are today.
Speaker 5: Rights unless she's still secretly thinking about this one.
Speaker 3: Guy who got away. I mean that is the that's
Speaker 3: the worst case scenario.
Speaker 4: That's true. I didn't think of that.
Speaker 1: Does that happen?
Speaker 2: Do girls say yes to proposals while thinking about another guy.
Speaker 5: Oh, why do you think there's so many divorces in
Speaker 5: the world, Jeffrey, Are.
Speaker 2: You speaking from personal experience?
Speaker 1: What's going on you?
Speaker 5: I love my husband and I am so glad that
Speaker 5: I'm with him, But I definitely could.
Speaker 2: See yourself with a dentist that was much richer and
Speaker 2: more handsome.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: It's an option.
Speaker 2: Okay, she's still thinking about that homeless guy she used
Speaker 2: to that got away. So Seth, what do you want
Speaker 2: to do with your awkward Tuesday phone call right now?
Speaker 4: I don't know. I needed a sounding board, like I
Speaker 4: haven't told the counselor. I haven't told my friends, So
Speaker 4: we're going to call her. Yeah, I think that we
Speaker 4: we need to. I need to do this, like I
Speaker 4: trust this counselor and I can't just have this holding over,
Speaker 4: Like what am I going to do another five years?
Speaker 1: Sounds like you need this.
Speaker 5: And why do it in a counseling session when that
Speaker 5: costs money and you can do it here for Yeah?
Speaker 1: Absolutely, Man.
Speaker 2: I feel really bad because Brooke, you have a lot
Speaker 2: of pressure on you right now to give some really
Speaker 2: good advice to set Yeah. You're the only one that
Speaker 2: knows anything about this, So.
Speaker 1: I'm bowing. Yeah, I'm bowing out this. Let's play a song.
Speaker 3: You're awful.
Speaker 1: Come back. We'll have Brook give you some read it
Speaker 1: probably will be yeah, and then we'll let you make
Speaker 1: your awkward Tuesday phone call, right, Seth, All right, all right,
Speaker 1: hold on, it's awkward.
Speaker 3: It's Tuesday.
Speaker 4: It's awkward Tuesday phone call.
Speaker 1: Contrary to what a lot of people think about.
Speaker 2: Us, our show wants every single marriage to start off
Speaker 2: on a good note. Yeahul, that means trust, love, of course,
Speaker 2: a little healthy experimentation.
Speaker 1: Sprinkled in there.
Speaker 3: I mean if both parties are willing.
Speaker 2: Both parties are willing, even if they don't say they are.
Speaker 3: Now we're getting to do it.
Speaker 1: It's healthy.
Speaker 5: Now.
Speaker 1: That's why this call is good.
Speaker 2: It's a good experiment for us because we've never had
Speaker 2: such a big secret that we've needed to help a
Speaker 2: listener with before. And we're going to be relying mainly
Speaker 2: on Brook to take us through the forest of lives
Speaker 2: because she's the expert and we need an adult better.
Speaker 1: What do you got for Seth?
Speaker 5: Here, Seth, I know you feel guilty because right now
Speaker 5: your vibe is kind of dark, right, Okay, so we
Speaker 5: don't want her to feel that way, so we're going
Speaker 5: to deliver the same news. What do you think about this?
Speaker 5: You have a radio station behind you which has music,
Speaker 5: So I'm thinking when you're ready to tell the story,
Speaker 5: we play something like this.
Speaker 3: What do you think, Seth? Yeah?
Speaker 4: Do you know what the term gaslighting means?
Speaker 5: It's just like, you know, I love story of how
Speaker 5: you met instead of like a sad story about how
Speaker 5: you've been hiding.
Speaker 3: A deep, dark secret for three years from her.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I'm going to jump in here, Seth and just say
Speaker 2: I think you're better off on your own.
Speaker 1: Let's just do this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm deleting that permanently from our system.
Speaker 3: That No, no, I can't.
Speaker 1: I love you expecting it to pop up.
Speaker 2: Now, Okay, okay, where's the keeping our back pocket?
Speaker 1: Just we'll jump in when we feel like you need
Speaker 1: a little bit of help.
Speaker 4: Okay, here we go. Hello, Hey, it's me.
Speaker 6: Hey, what is up, babe? I did not sorry, just
Speaker 6: didn't didn't recognize.
Speaker 4: Oh no, no, yeah, I think my phone number is
Speaker 4: doing something weird.
Speaker 6: It's it's there must be something because here in the office,
Speaker 6: like we've had internet connection troubles all day and I
Speaker 6: don't get it.
Speaker 4: That must be it anyway, that's a good Yeah.
Speaker 6: Yeah, what's up?
Speaker 4: Butten before I get into it, I just I want
Speaker 4: to say how how much I love you and you
Speaker 4: are the most amazing person I've ever met in my life.
Speaker 6: Thank you.
Speaker 4: I would do anything for you and to be with you.
Speaker 4: And you know about our pre marriage counseling and it's
Speaker 4: been going pretty great so far. Like I'm I'm glad
Speaker 4: you talked me into it.
Speaker 6: Me too. I think it's doing really good stuff for us.
Speaker 6: So I mean, sorry, but where's this going?
Speaker 4: Okay? Well, there's just there. I have told you everything
Speaker 4: in my life, down to details that I haven't told
Speaker 4: anybody else. But there's only one thing you need to know.
Speaker 4: I have to get it off my chest.
Speaker 6: Oh okay this and now I'm a little scared, but
Speaker 6: uh yeah, I'll go for it.
Speaker 4: You remember, like right before we started dating, you're seeing
Speaker 4: this guy and he was a dentist.
Speaker 6: Oh you mean John.
Speaker 4: Yeah. I think anyway, when you're seeing him, you seem
Speaker 4: so excited about him, and I was, I was, honestly,
Speaker 4: uh super jealous.
Speaker 6: I mean I could I get that because he was
Speaker 6: he was awfome and it was great. And I still
Speaker 6: don't get what happened, but whatever.
Speaker 4: I know you thought that he ghosted you, and that's
Speaker 4: not totally true. Yeah he did. Do you know, listen,
Speaker 4: I did something stupid. Okay, he actually he texted you
Speaker 4: asking you out again, and you weren't in the room,
Speaker 4: and I saw it on your phone and I went
Speaker 4: in and I I deleted the tech what I know,
Speaker 4: I panicked and I knew I was super into you,
Speaker 4: and I blocked his number. And so that's the real
Speaker 4: reason you never got his message. And obviously I feel
Speaker 4: incredibly guilty about that. Annie. Are you still there?
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know what.
Speaker 4: It's cool. What are you talking about?
Speaker 1: Wait, it's cool, it's cool.
Speaker 3: Wait, Lily, just hang up. I think we leave it
Speaker 3: right there.
Speaker 6: Jeffrey, who are all these people?
Speaker 3: Hello? Hey, hey, TONI, Hi, TONI, it's cool.
Speaker 2: Hi who we're friends of John the Dentist.
Speaker 4: No, No, they're not, No, they're not. Hanni know they're not.
Speaker 4: Let me get ahead of that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, sorry, I'm sorry, sorry, Seth.
Speaker 1: I'm just kidding, TONI.
Speaker 2: We're a morning radio show called Brook and Jeffrey in
Speaker 2: the morning.
Speaker 4: Okay, okay, okay, I just I needed a little bit
Speaker 4: of help and back up telling you this. And so
Speaker 4: this is a joke, right, this is like, it's not
Speaker 4: a joke. I don't understand why. It's just cool?
Speaker 3: Why are you questioning about set? Like take it?
Speaker 4: Man, if you have ever met my lovely fiance, you
Speaker 4: would know that nothing is just that there's got to
Speaker 4: be right.
Speaker 5: You think she's lying, you think it's one of those
Speaker 5: I'm fine answers or.
Speaker 4: Something, definitely, And I'm fine, Tony what, there's nothing, there's
Speaker 4: no reaction.
Speaker 6: I mean, I actually I'm pretty kind of it's fine.
Speaker 6: I mean, I think everybody's allowed to keep some secrets
Speaker 6: from their spout. And so I don't blame you.
Speaker 4: I mean I do if that's normal. Interesting, that's totally
Speaker 4: not what our counselor said. I'm doing this because our counselor,
Speaker 4: you said that we were totally bought in, and our
Speaker 4: counselor said we had to tell each other everything.
Speaker 1: This is why he called us. He was all stressed
Speaker 1: about it.
Speaker 6: Well, I mean things that I think that are like
Speaker 6: relevant or you probably want to know about or like
Speaker 6: should know about. But there's a few things I keep
Speaker 6: for myself, so I.
Speaker 5: Could see Tony where that would be fine if it
Speaker 5: like didn't involve your fiance maybe at all.
Speaker 3: But like this was I mean, why would you want
Speaker 3: him to keep this? This? This is like the start
Speaker 3: of your guys' relationship. It's how you came to be
Speaker 3: a couple.
Speaker 6: I mean I don't love it, that's for sure, But
Speaker 6: I mean he is great that.
Speaker 4: You are not like specifically not sharing with me, even
Speaker 4: though the counselor.
Speaker 6: Really, I mean there's something like two really big things
Speaker 6: that that I don't tell anyone, So.
Speaker 5: Fine, tell us, Tony, Tony, why aren't you telling him
Speaker 5: the two really big things?
Speaker 6: Because I'm allowed to keep spirits. I mean, just because
Speaker 6: I'm gonna get married to you doesn't mean that now
Speaker 6: I have to suddenly tell you every day.
Speaker 2: The counselor said, no, she wants to keep a little
Speaker 2: mystery in the relationship.
Speaker 1: I get it.
Speaker 6: How about some privacy about personal stuff, Tony?
Speaker 5: Can I ask what these things change sess opinion about you?
Speaker 4: I don't WHOA. That was way too long of a silence.
Speaker 4: You know all of my secrets now, and you're telling
Speaker 4: me that you have two, which means you've thought about it, right,
Speaker 4: and I don't know two of yours. Maybe we need
Speaker 4: to bring yourself back with a counselor again, maybe we
Speaker 4: need a third party. That's not you are not.
Speaker 1: Playing, Jim, I'm doing like this has to jump in good.
Speaker 4: I'm agreeing at this point.
Speaker 3: See, it doesn't sound like a couple arguing anymore. It's
Speaker 3: like a sitcom.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, this is a right.
Speaker 4: That was not my idea.
Speaker 6: Done talking, you're right, Okay.
Speaker 1: Okay, you guys missed it. They're not done talking.
Speaker 3: A lot of trouble.
Speaker 5: So I feel like Tawny feels fine and Seth, you're
Speaker 5: now more upset.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, make some more secrets, Yeah, makes the more secrets.
Speaker 2: He just he just told you a pretty big secret there, Tony.
Speaker 2: Maybe you want to tell him maybe not one of
Speaker 2: your big secrets. How about a little secret. Let's just
Speaker 2: crack the door.
Speaker 6: I mean, seriously, if I'm going to see it's not
Speaker 6: going to be on the radio, but.
Speaker 5: We have the music that we could play behind it.
Speaker 5: That would make it more fun.
Speaker 1: You might lighten the blow.
Speaker 3: Oh no, okay, I tried. I got two no's on
Speaker 3: that music the record.
Speaker 4: I never for the record. I never thought that part
Speaker 4: was a good idea. I just want to voice that.
Speaker 2: But in all seriousness, I think maybe you guys should
Speaker 2: finish the rest of this conversation off the air, all right.
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, if we need to talk about it off
Speaker 4: and maybe with the counselor or maybe each other, then yeah,
Speaker 4: let's let's do that.
Speaker 6: I mean, I don't even know if we need to
Speaker 6: go back to the counselor, because I mean I already
Speaker 6: know of your secret.
Speaker 4: So this is a two way street.
Speaker 2: First, I bet you'd tell John the dentist you're two
Speaker 2: big secrets.
Speaker 4: No comment, Oh y, bring the music back.
Speaker 1: Bring the music back.
Speaker 4: Nobody wants
Speaker 3: Brook and Jeffrey in the morning.
