Nelson Report. It's a good one

3:09

today. It's brick and Jeffrey in the morning.

3:11

You found the podcast and Jose has

3:13

a big story about how you almost got

3:15

blacklisted from Uber. Yeah. After you

3:17

accidentally insulted not just one, but many

3:19

Uber drivers. Yeah, let me confuse you

3:21

more. I was being kind. Yeah, were

3:23

you? I was. I was talking to

3:25

everyone. Smiling, saying hello.

3:27

How are you today? You'll find out why

3:29

that was a huge problem for him coming

3:31

up in this brand new show. And Alexis,

3:33

we do have some comments. before we start

3:35

the show, right? Yes, I saw one on

3:37

YouTube from Matt Tolbert, who said, I'm on

3:39

vacation at Disney World, and I'm using the

3:41

wait times to get into rides to listen

3:43

to the daily podcast. Oh, that's great. I

3:45

love you all. Dude, I may do that

3:47

when I go to Disneyland year. I hope

3:49

you're not with your children, Matt, just ignoring

3:51

them. With headphones on. He's like, hold

3:53

on, hold on, kids. I got to find out what they're not

3:55

going to call back. He's like, someone else in this line, take

3:57

care of these children. Yeah. OK, hey, let's

4:00

get this started. The full show starts

4:02

now. We don't normally

4:04

do a lot of dating stuff on our

4:06

show. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

4:08

see how we do. Kind of all we

4:10

do. It's like a red barcap. Well, okay,

4:12

political dating, yes. We do a lot of

4:14

that stuff and the religious stuff, but... We

4:16

don't even know what that means. Yeah, what?

4:18

You may have noticed dating right now is

4:21

a little different than it was 40 years

4:23

ago. Oh, yeah. For example, back in the

4:25

80s, it would have been a giant red

4:27

flag if a total stranger from the internet

4:29

invited you on a hike through the woods.

4:31

Yeah, yeah. Now,

4:33

it's the number one best date that you

4:36

can do. When everybody says they love hiking

4:38

on their profiles election. Yeah, you shouldn't even

4:40

go on a hike with a stranger people.

4:43

You absolutely should. And it's not

4:45

me saying that. A popular matchmaking

4:47

service did a study and it

4:49

found you're 25 % more likely to

4:51

get a second date if your

4:53

first meetup involves doing something active

4:55

together. Okay, that doesn't mean alone

4:58

in the woods while you're carrying

5:00

the duct tape. Okay,

5:02

it could be visiting a museum, or

5:04

like strolling through a botanical gardens, breaking

5:06

into a zoo to free the lemurs,

5:08

as long as it's an active activity.

5:10

I was thinking like mini golf, dude.

5:12

I was thinking a walk around a

5:14

very public park. Yeah. lot

5:16

of people can see you. People. Wearing white

5:18

glasses. It's not true

5:20

because according to the study, hiking

5:22

is the number one most

5:24

successful date activity, 60 % success

5:26

rate of getting a second meetup.

5:28

I'm nervous. I got the

5:30

worst. That

5:38

gives her the opportunity to take

5:40

care of you Jose. That's something that

5:42

she wants. Meanwhile,

5:47

going to restaurants, bars

5:49

and movies. Those

5:51

are all dying in

5:53

popularity. Yes, you know why, because

5:55

no one can afford them anymore. That's

5:57

gonna stay. It's considered the old school style

5:59

of dating, and Brooke, this is gonna

6:01

be devastating to hear. What's that? But singles

6:04

today are seeking alcohol -free ways to connect

6:06

with each other. what? That's why nobody's

6:08

getting married anymore. I'll tell you that. That's

6:11

why you're all still single. Apparently

6:13

they want authentic non -slurry

6:15

conversations to build their emotional

6:17

chemistry in a foundation for

6:19

a relationship. Tell me how

6:21

that's going to work out

6:24

in 40 years. Now let's

6:26

move on. We're going to get

6:28

to the shock collar question of

6:30

the day with somebody who engages

6:32

in very slurry late night convos

6:34

with Brooke's mother. That would be

6:36

Jake. I believe you have

6:38

something to say. Digital Jake? How do you? Love

6:41

makes people do crazy

6:43

things. Build monuments, they write

6:45

poetry, they rob banks.

6:47

Because Cuba doesn't just strike

6:49

hearts. Sometimes he lit

6:52

the match for chaos. Oh

6:54

yeah. That's

6:56

why today we're

6:58

celebrating passionate romances during

7:00

a special famous

7:03

lovers edition of... 20

7:05

of 20 I have

7:07

a list of the

7:09

top 20 greatest lovers

7:12

in human history All

7:14

real people we all know what

7:16

is number one So you guys

7:19

say number one through twenty I'll

7:21

give you a hint about an

7:23

iconic lover or an iconic couple

7:25

You just have to name either

7:27

one or both of them depending

7:30

on the question to stay in

7:32

the game We'll start with the

7:34

woman who puts the her in

7:36

lover that's Alexis Alexis Number 15,

7:38

she spoke nine languages and made

7:40

both Julius Caesar and Mark Antony

7:43

fall madly in love. Some say

7:45

she was romantic, I say

7:47

she was a power move with eyeliner.

7:49

That's right, you know this. What's the name

7:51

of this epic lover? Come

7:53

on. I am sure

7:55

one of your friends has dressed up as

7:57

her for Halloween. It's your offensive way. It's

7:59

her mom again. Her mom was good with

8:01

seriously all of the ancient lovers. That makes

8:04

sense. My mom dressed up as her for

8:06

Halloween. She has the pyramids on her outfit. She

8:09

definitely has

8:11

pyramids. Cleopatra.

8:17

Queen of the Nile, heartbreaker of Rome. It's

8:19

okay, Jose. We're all envisioning where those

8:21

permits went on Barb. done that yet. That's

8:23

a good idea for her. Let her

8:25

know. Let's let her know for this year.

8:27

Brooke, it's your turn. 15 is off

8:29

the board. Okay, I'm gonna go 13. Ooh,

8:31

a tough one, Brooke. Uh -oh. They married,

8:33

divorced, remarried, slept with each other's friends.

8:36

The woman once said, quote, I suffered two

8:38

accidents in my life. One was a

8:40

bus, the other was Diego, and

8:42

yet they couldn't quit each other. Who

8:44

is this famous lover? I know this

8:46

too well. It's a great love story.

8:49

Frida Kahlo. Frida Kahlo. Very

8:52

good. Oh, got

8:55

it. Did you ever see the movie

8:57

about Frida? No. Oh, you guys should watch it.

8:59

I watched her for Halloween. There's a lot of good

9:01

Halloween costumes in this. Yeah, you were. Incredible

9:04

love story. Good dates don't do

9:06

movies anymore, Brooke. So we're

9:08

not allowed to do that. No, it's a

9:10

very tragic love story they had. Oh, okay.

9:12

Toxic love? Yeah, yeah, very toxic. Yeah. Jose,

9:15

it's your turn. 13 and 15

9:17

are off the board. Let's go eight.

9:19

Jose, he conquered Europe. then sent

9:21

love letters to one woman that was

9:23

so desperate they could be emo

9:26

songs. Quote, I haven't slept. I'm on

9:28

fire. Also, why won't you write

9:30

me back? That was

9:32

an actual quote from who

9:34

named this French ruler. So

9:36

thirsty, bro. I wonder if you could

9:38

block mail back then. Yeah. I

9:41

think we all know it's

9:43

a this is a Neapolitan bonaparte.

9:45

Neapolitan. That's why I call

9:47

him that. Yeah. I'll take Napoleon.

9:50

It got that Jose for an extra

9:52

point. Can you name his little

9:54

Empress obsession that he was sending these

9:56

letters to all Queen Victoria? That's

9:58

Josephine, but yeah, Napoleon. I'll give

10:01

that to you. Jose his love letters

10:03

were dramatic unhinged and honestly kind

10:05

of clinging It seemed like such a

10:07

stable guy you guys know your

10:09

lovers. Here's the lover of the show

10:11

Jeffrey 13 and 15 are off

10:13

the board number two Jeffrey they got

10:15

married then divorced then married again

10:18

then divorced again their love was diamonds

10:20

it was yachts, it was epic

10:22

fights, named this 1980 cinematic couple who

10:24

brought tabloid romance to a whole

10:26

new level. Two

10:33

marriages,

10:37

two divorces, lots of diamonds.

10:41

The 1980s. Mm -hmm. I mean, I definitely

10:43

would Elizabeth Taylor, whatever her name was.

10:45

She had, like, nine marriages. More than

10:47

that, right? No, though, my

10:49

mom's best friend. She was married, like, five

10:51

or six times. I think she only

10:53

counted five, because she was really married six,

10:55

but it was the same guy twice,

10:57

like, number two and number five. Oh, yeah,

10:59

that would be kind of confusing. Yeah,

11:01

so like, it doesn't count if you re

11:03

-marry. Yeah, it's true. Same dude. Yeah. I

11:06

don't know anybody who... Who

11:08

would fit into this category though?

11:10

Was Nicholas Cage married multiple times?

11:13

He seems like the chaotic

11:15

type to like bounce back and

11:17

forth between marriage and non -marriage.

11:19

I don't know. I'm gonna

11:21

say... I don't know. Nick Cage

11:23

did it. Nickolas Cage.

11:25

With diamonds? I don't see him as a

11:27

diamond guy, but okay. He literally bought

11:29

himself a pyramid. Yeah, he's trying to steal

11:31

the decoration from Independence. He

11:33

loves money. Anybody loves valuables, it's

11:35

Nick Cage. Jeffery said Nickolas Cage. That's

11:38

incorrect. I was looking for Elizabeth

11:40

Taylor. She was married multiple times,

11:42

but she was married to Richard Burton

11:44

multiple times. That means

11:47

Brooke, Jose, Alexis, you

11:49

guys have shared today's

11:51

victory. I'm

11:57

gonna be getting shocked today while singing wannabe by

11:59

the spice girls. Oh my gosh. Here we go.

12:01

mess this up. So good. I'll tell you what

12:03

I want. What I really really want. So tell

12:05

me what you want. What you really really want.

12:07

I want to really really really want a zig

12:09

a zig. A

12:22

lot of people like to do

12:24

family dinners where at least a

12:26

couple times a week everyone sits

12:29

down around the dinner table and

12:31

eats together. Yeah, we do it

12:33

every night at our house, Jeff.

12:35

Oh yeah, you're just better than

12:37

everybody. I just like to eat.

12:39

No, I'm just kidding. I also go to Brooke's

12:41

house and join her. Yeah, I mean, the whole

12:43

point is you can talk about your day, the

12:45

highs and lows, trash talk, other

12:47

families and how they're doing it all wrong.

12:50

We just did. Wait a minute. The

12:52

Henderson's don't even serve their children,

12:54

quinoa. Then

12:56

we're not your quinoa. And

12:58

right now is like our family's

13:01

weekly brunch. We all gather around.

13:03

Brooke is already three mimosas deep.

13:05

Jose's got his boiled egg ready

13:07

to go. And we all get

13:09

to share the weird stuff happening

13:11

in our lives. Stuff we never

13:14

say at our real family dinner

13:16

table. It's coming up in a

13:18

brand new What's On Your Mind

13:20

right now. You know,

13:22

a yawn is just a

13:24

silent scream for caffeine. That's

13:31

why we keep our bodies heavily

13:33

caffeinated during this segment. What's on

13:35

your mind? where we loudly scream

13:37

what we've been thinking about lately,

13:40

starting with Brooke. Brooke, what's on

13:42

your mind? Well, for Spring Break,

13:44

we did a big history trip

13:46

with our kids. Yikes.

13:48

Oh, God. History trip. That's okay.

13:51

We own a time machine. No,

13:53

like our fifth graders do in U .S. history,

13:55

so we did DC, we did all the monuments,

13:57

we saw, you know, we went to all the

14:00

Smithsonian's, and then we went to New York, and

14:02

we did the Statue of Liberty, and we took

14:04

in all this information. when

14:06

we asked the kids, like, God,

14:08

what was the one thing you

14:10

really took from your experience in

14:12

DC and New York? And you're

14:14

expecting a nice deep answer from

14:16

them, I'm sure. Absolutely. And they

14:18

both agree. They're like... We know

14:21

the moment that we'll never forget

14:23

Yeah, and it was when we

14:25

were in New York City and

14:27

almost run over by two guys

14:29

running from the cops trying to

14:31

sell fake Louis Vuitton's These guys

14:33

run past us one has a

14:35

big cart and push us over

14:37

and then we see the cops

14:39

about a half a block up

14:41

And so then I have to

14:43

explain to them that you're not

14:45

allowed to sell fake luxury when

14:48

they are about to run. They

14:51

take whatever you have for real. Well, I'll

14:53

tell you, my kids are on your side, Alexis,

14:55

because then they spent the next like four

14:57

days analyzing how well some of them could pack

14:59

up quickly and move. You know,

15:01

because it's all like... I'm with your kids. They

15:03

got the bags. They pull it so quickly. They

15:05

pull it so quickly. They're on sheets. Yes, yes.

15:07

I got to see this in action. You're gonna

15:09

be like, it feels like this is out. Just

15:12

telling you, you can miss all the Hewitt's history

15:14

stuff and just learn about how to... Thebes? Yeah.

15:16

It was educational in a way. There

15:18

you go, they actually did learn something. Get

15:20

your job opportunity. Yeah, yeah. Dude, I'm going to

15:22

buy some other batons soon. Yeah. Jose,

15:25

what's been on your mind? So over

15:27

our spring break, I went to Florida and

15:29

I had an amazing time with Sunshine and

15:31

all these restaurants. And I didn't rent a

15:33

car because I'm on Miami Beach. Yeah,

15:35

there's a walk everywhere. I'm going to walk

15:37

or over a worse case, right? Everything is

15:39

close. But what I didn't think about was

15:41

how many different Latin ethnicities are in

15:43

Miami. Oh, yeah. It is a melting pot. Every...

15:46

Uber driver I had was Latino. And

15:48

it was great. And I would walk

15:50

in and it was always the same

15:53

thing. I opened the door and they'd

15:55

be like, Jose, hola, como estas? Right?

15:59

And I'm like. Hi

16:01

friend And then they

16:03

shut me off One

16:06

told me he goes

16:08

disappoint me sir Wow,

16:10

and I'm like what

16:12

do you mean? And

16:15

he's like you know

16:17

you what you should

16:19

do is change your

16:21

name You're

16:25

a disgrace to the name and I told

16:27

him I said well no one will talk

16:29

to me because I have a Spanish name

16:31

but I don't speak Spanish and he's like

16:33

see amigo I'm telling you to change your

16:35

name and everyone will talk to you again.

16:38

So the rest of the trip I

16:40

was Peter. I

16:42

like that that's his solution

16:44

not you should learn Spanish. I'm

16:47

hopeless he knew. other

16:53

than being disgraced by Uber, I

16:55

had an amazing Miami trip. Okay, Alexis,

16:57

what's been on your mind? friend

16:59

visited me from out of town and she wanted

17:01

to go hiking together. She asked where I normally go

17:03

around here. I didn't want to let her know

17:05

I haven't hiked in five years from where we live.

17:07

So I went to the most basic trail nearby

17:09

and I was like, love this place. like, this is

17:12

a concrete trail. But when

17:14

I was hiking, I was surprised because I

17:16

forgot how good of photos you can

17:18

get hiking, okay? And I

17:20

don't post on Insta lot anymore because all

17:22

it is is photos of me drinking

17:24

is the problem. I only have pictures of

17:26

me out and now I realize, I

17:28

can sprinkle in a little outdoors. Did

17:31

you bring a change of clothes on the one

17:33

hike you went on? I have done that before,

17:35

yes. And I could bring my roommate's dog.

17:37

So I got a dog in the photo. So

17:40

this is going to be my hiking girl

17:42

summer era, just so we know. I bought hiking

17:44

boots. I bought a pass so that I

17:46

can park and not get ticketed in the area.

17:48

You're going back. I mean, I haven't yet,

17:50

but I will. Just in

17:52

case, somebody wants to. I went once, but

17:54

now I got the shoes, bro. So I

17:56

can go on a more extreme one. Yeah.

17:59

Tell him a whole photo. So I'm ready. I feel

18:01

like it's more like you're going to get eaten by

18:03

a bear summer. It's what it's be. I'm not going

18:05

to go on ones with bears. Oh. Don't worry. You

18:08

know how extreme your boots work. I

18:10

don't know. But yeah, hiking girl summer, everybody.

18:12

All right. Get ready. Let's go. Jeffrey,

18:14

what's on your mind? I got a surprise

18:16

the other day when I went into

18:18

the bathroom and looked down into the toilet.

18:20

Uh -oh. We've all been there, end the

18:22

story. Can we be done? Look down,

18:24

it's a dead mouse. What? Floating face down

18:26

in the bowl. Ew. Oh, that's so

18:29

sad. They're so cute. Wait, that's at your

18:31

house right now. At my house, and

18:33

I'm like, what the hell did I eat?

18:35

My god. But

18:37

seriously, no, I was like, how did it get

18:39

there? Like, I know my dog Bagel didn't put

18:41

it in there. Yeah. Because he doesn't know how

18:43

to open up the lid yet. Oh, Bagel. Yeah,

18:45

he's scared of it. Did you have a toilet

18:47

-trained mouse that accidentally fell in? No, it wasn't

18:50

that. So I had to deal with it, got

18:52

rid of it. Next day, took my car to

18:54

get serviced. No. What did they find? Mousin

18:56

the car with extensive rodent damage

18:58

like they've been biting through your

19:00

wires and stuff yeah cost quite

19:02

a bit to repair that When

19:04

I get back home and again,

19:06

I haven't lived in this place

19:08

for like a full calendar I

19:12

mean mouse poop is usually everywhere. Yeah,

19:14

the little pellets. I haven't seen that but

19:16

my neighbor next door did tell me

19:18

Oh, yeah, by the way, it's mouse season

19:20

around here. You know He's like I've

19:22

set up hundreds of traps are all around

19:24

my property with poison pellets and snap

19:27

tracks Other mechanisms you're gonna have to deal

19:29

with them. This is a thing. I

19:31

didn't know mouse season was a thing I

19:33

didn't know either. I just got through

19:35

about to get

busted! If I

27:33

learned anything from watching the movie

27:35

John Tucker Must Die, it's

27:37

that women shockingly don't like being

27:39

lied to and cheated on.

27:41

I didn't even see that movie

27:43

and I know that. Plot

27:46

twist, and it's not

27:48

just women, turns out most people

27:51

don't like it. There's

27:54

very important information in some of

27:56

these movies. Did it really change your

27:58

life? It really did, which is

28:00

why we now have this segment busted,

28:02

where listeners can share how they

28:04

caught their hunky protein shake loving exes

28:06

being unfaithful to them. Starting with

28:08

Rita. Rita, tell us how you busted

28:10

your significant other. So I

28:12

was dating this guy and he

28:14

was a gift giver. That was

28:17

his love language. He loved to

28:19

give me gifts. Okay, that's nice.

28:21

Hopefully you don't want to relate

28:23

to her ex in this situation. I

28:26

thought it was nice

28:28

in the beginning to

28:30

until I found out

28:32

otherwise. Basically,

28:35

one time he was like, Hey,

28:37

honey, go get your nails done.

28:40

Here's a gift card to your

28:42

this nail salon. Okay, go. You

28:44

know, like treat yourself. A little

28:46

pampering, yeah. All right. Exactly. And

28:48

I was like, oh my gosh,

28:50

this is so great. Yeah. So

28:52

I go in and I'm getting

28:54

my nails done. But

28:57

the thing is, the

28:59

nail texts were talking

29:01

amongst each other in

29:03

Vietnamese. But what

29:05

they didn't know is

29:07

that I actually understand Vietnamese.

29:10

Oh. That's cool.

29:12

That's fun. Okay. I

29:14

was kind of like listening into

29:16

their conversation. Oh, I always want

29:18

to know what they're They're always having a great time

29:20

talking. Yes. Yes. And

29:22

they were talking about how

29:25

there's this guy that came in

29:27

and he bought all of

29:29

these gift cards and three different

29:31

girls have been here on

29:33

gift cards that have gone back

29:35

to this account. Oh.

29:38

And that was like, wait a minute. I'm saying

29:40

with a gift card. So

29:42

I pulled out my phone and showed

29:44

a picture. And for

29:46

sure it was him. All right, they got

29:48

your back. Figured out it was your

29:50

boyfriend giving gift cards to all these women.

29:53

But did you at least stay and finish your nails? It's

29:56

not the nails fault. I mean,

29:58

I kind of took it as like

30:00

a parting gift from the universe. You

30:02

want your nails done when you hit those apps.

30:05

There you go. Let's

30:07

keep going. We're going to talk to

30:09

Lance here. Tell us how you busted your

30:11

significant other. Okay, so I

30:13

was living with this girl a little

30:15

while ago, and we had a

30:17

nice two -bedroom apartment. Nothing big, nothing

30:19

fancy. Okay, but serious relationship. That's what

30:22

I thought. Anyway,

30:26

one night she tells me that

30:28

she's uncomfortable in our bed, so

30:30

she's gonna go sleep in the

30:32

guest room. I mean, I don't

30:34

really think anything of it at

30:36

the time, but she left her

30:38

cell phone in our room, and

30:40

it starts ringing. at like 2

30:42

a .m. Oh, please tell me it's

30:44

her girl's drunk at the bar.

30:47

Well, look, I try to ignore the

30:49

thing, right? Uh -huh. But it

30:51

goes off again. Yeah. And

30:53

again. Oh, no. And

30:56

I'm thinking maybe there's a problem.

30:58

So I look over and it says

31:00

pizza hut. Yeah. Oh. Pizza

31:02

Hut. They call you now. It's

31:04

awesome. Yeah. You want a

31:06

medium pepperoni right now or what?

31:08

Well, okay. So Pizza Hut

31:10

ended up calling 12 times. Oh,

31:12

wow. I finally decided, okay,

31:14

this is enough of this, what's

31:16

going on. So I finally

31:19

answered the phone, right? But here's

31:21

the, I don't say anything.

31:23

I just, just dead silence. I

31:25

want to hear what's going

31:27

on. that's smart. Cause like if

31:29

they hear a man's voice, they're going to hang

31:31

up. Okay. So this

31:33

dude pops on the line. He's like, Sasha,

31:35

I'm here with your great

31:37

big pizza. Wait,

31:41

he's chasing down the pizza fantasy. Wait, what

31:43

did you say? If he's what? If

31:45

he's asleep, come on out. If

31:47

he's asleep, come on out. So

31:51

you went outside, right? Well,

31:54

Lou, that's when I figured everything out

31:56

and I shut it down. And that's also

31:58

when I switched to Domino's. Yeah. Good

32:00

call. Good call, baby. So that was the

32:02

beat, though. Yeah. Permanently traumatized. We have

32:04

time for one more. Let's go to Natalia.

32:06

Tell us how you busted your significant

32:08

other. So I had to do a little

32:10

sleuthing. Sleuthing? Is that what you

32:13

said? Sleuthing, yeah. OK. Yeah.

32:15

So we've been together since going

32:17

on a year. One year, OK.

32:19

And already you're having suspicions, yeah.

32:21

I did. I had some suspicions

32:23

all along. So

32:25

he was heading out on a guy's

32:27

trip. We've had so many busted stories

32:29

that start with that. Yeah. Yeah.

32:32

Well, maybe good reason. And

32:35

I was trying to be cool, but I

32:37

told him, I said, OK, but you need

32:39

to send me pics every day of what

32:41

you guys are up to. Hold it in

32:43

a newspaper so you know the date, right?

32:46

Yeah. Not bad, but

32:48

it's just like, you know, keep

32:50

me posted. Yeah, guys love doing

32:52

that. Well, yeah. So

32:55

he sends me the pics

32:57

one day, and it's him

32:59

at an Italian restaurant having

33:01

dinner. OK. I looked

33:03

closely at the picture, and you know

33:06

how you have this old school Parmesan cheese

33:08

things on the table with a little metal

33:10

top like ones that you're, know. Yeah, the

33:12

Parmesan cheese yeah. So

33:14

I saw, I saw something

33:16

in it. So I zoomed in.

33:18

You saw something in the

33:20

reflection of the metal? In the

33:22

reflection on the cheese top,

33:24

yeah. So I

33:26

zoom in, and it's

33:28

his freaking ex -girlfriend. no.

33:34

Oh, God. She worked there.

33:36

Is she delivering your pizza? No. Oh,

33:38

yeah. Well. Ruin by those good

33:40

cell phone cameras again. Yeah. Yeah.

33:43

What did you do? Well, I took

33:45

a picture of the zoomed in

33:47

image, and I sent it to him.

33:49

And I just said, your stuff

33:51

will be on the curb when you

33:53

get back. Oh. It's

33:56

nice to be able to move it for him, and not

33:58

make him do it himself. What a good girlfriend. Yeah,

34:04

still. Strong move there. I'm sorry

34:06

that happened to you, Natalia. Thank

34:09

you. Make

34:11

sure you hit up our text board at

34:13

78592 if you have a funny story about how

34:15

you caught your ex cheating. You could be

34:17

on the next edition of Busted. You got your

34:19

phone tab coming up right after this. I

34:24

feel like once a year

34:26

we do stories on this show

34:28

about the funniest, most risqué,

34:30

personalized license plates that get rejected.

34:34

It's usually pretty obvious why. Well,

34:36

today we call a guy who's frustrated

34:38

that his was turned down by the state.

34:40

Uh -oh, is it appropriate? No, it's actually

34:42

pretty tame. So he sends an email

34:45

in and now he's about to get a

34:47

response. But the response

34:49

is from us. And I can

34:51

tell you right now, we're 100 %

34:53

non -helpful. Yeah, shocking. In your

34:55

phone tap right now. It's another

34:57

phone tap. And weekday mornings on

34:59

the 20s. Hello?

35:02

Hi, I'm calling from the Department of

35:05

Licensing. My name is Juice Chambers.

35:07

Is this Jason? Uh,

35:09

yeah, this is he. Great. So

35:11

this is in regards to your

35:13

personalized license plate request you submitted.

35:15

You emailed us asking to appeal

35:17

the rejection. Yeah, I

35:20

did. I didn't understand why. So.

35:22

Oh, right. You didn't understand. OK, well,

35:24

maybe I can give you a little

35:26

more clarification on that. Yeah, clarification

35:28

would be great. OK, I got a few

35:30

papers on my desk here. Let me just

35:33

find yours. Oh, here we

35:35

go. I believe yours was

35:37

tushy. T -U -S -H -Y. Now

35:39

listen, while we do appreciate

35:41

cheeks here of all kinds, you

35:44

can understand why it was

35:46

rejected, right? That's not mine.

35:48

Mine was snoozed. Okay,

35:53

yes, snooze. S -N

35:55

-U -U -Z. That's how

35:57

I requested it. Uh -huh,

35:59

got it. So the reason

36:01

we rejected snooze, it implies

36:03

that you're promoting sleeping while

36:05

driving. What? That's not good. That's

36:08

not a thing. What are you talking

36:10

about? It most certainly is a

36:13

thing. Yeah, if people are driving

36:15

behind you and they see snooze, they

36:17

might think it's okay to put

36:19

their car in cruise control and just

36:21

close their eyes. Take a little

36:23

snooze, get it? So sorry,

36:25

but decisions are final, so. Nobody

36:27

would ever think that. The

36:29

name snooze was my nickname. Oh,

36:31

you're claiming nickname. Yeah,

36:34

I've heard that before. It's true. My

36:36

buddies gave me it in college

36:38

because we party a lot and I'd

36:40

sleep through classes. Wow. That's even

36:42

worse than I thought. Drinking, doing drugs,

36:44

sleeping behind the wheel. That's not

36:46

what it was, lady. Okay. You know

36:48

what? It doesn't even matter now.

36:50

It doesn't matter because we've already assigned

36:52

you a different personalized license plate.

36:54

What? From now on, you're going to

36:56

be Sad Boy One. I

36:58

don't want to be Sad Boy.

37:00

You're not. You're sad boy one. I

37:02

don't want to be sad boy

37:04

anything. Any number. How about I

37:06

love bread? That's L -U -V. Oh my

37:08

god. Pretty hip. Don't try to force

37:10

me in a personalized license. I don't

37:12

want to be bread guy or sad

37:14

boy. Again, sad boy one, because we

37:16

already have a sad boy two. I

37:18

don't care. Just refund my money. You

37:21

know, I am pretty good at reading

37:23

human emotions. You

37:25

sound irritated. Oh, really?

37:27

I don't want to leave things this

37:29

way. So I've had one tucked away

37:31

for a special occasion just like this. What?

37:34

I'm probably not going to like

37:36

it. going to be so happy.

37:38

What about bra 420? Bra

37:40

420? Yeah. Bra

37:42

420? Are you kidding me? You love it,

37:44

don't you? No, you won't let me

37:47

have snooze, but you will let me have

37:49

an obvious drug holiday reference. Are you

37:51

kidding? Do you know that

37:53

bra420 is not a drug reference?

37:55

It totally is. My colleague, who I

37:57

trust with my life, told me

37:59

it's a Lord of the Rings movie

38:01

quote. What? That's why it's so

38:03

popular. The guy is messing with you.

38:05

Now, I've actually never seen the movie, but

38:07

apparently they say bra a lot in

38:09

it. No, they do not. And they reference

38:11

the ring size, which is 4 by

38:14

20. I've seen the movie. That's a lie.

38:16

You are about to be really embarrassed

38:18

because I'm going to call him in right

38:20

now. Hey, Max! Pick up

38:22

line for he doesn't believe

38:24

me. Oh Sub brah. What

38:26

the hell is happening? You

38:28

don't like the 420 idea

38:31

your loss, bro. You're taking

38:33

an L This is the

38:35

lord of the ratings guy

38:37

Yeah, we should give you

38:39

the phone tap plate because

38:41

you're on the radio right

38:43

now. Do you get it?

38:46

Like a prank phone call. No.

38:50

Yeah, dude. This

38:52

is actually Brett from the radio show,

38:54

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Yeah, I'm

38:56

Jose, man. We're doing a phone tap

38:58

on you. Guys, I was

39:00

about to throw my phone through my window.

39:03

My girlfriend, Erin, set you up. She

39:05

said you were frustrated because they

39:07

rejected your personalized plate request. Oh, I

39:09

am. I am frustrated. She's right.

39:11

Dude, don't throw your phone. That's not

39:13

smart. You're going to need that.

39:15

I think it's more that your girlfriend

39:17

doesn't want to be riding around

39:19

in a car that says snooze on

39:21

it. Oh, man. That's

39:24

my nickname. I just want snooze. I

39:26

just want to be snoozed. For the

39:28

record, I also enjoy a nice snooze

39:30

after a plate of munchies. Like

39:33

420, bro. Get it, bro?

39:35

Thank you, dude. Wake

39:38

professional. Nothing says compatibility like

39:58

wiping fake blood off a tile

40:00

floor together. Just wait for the

40:02

real stuff, Jeff. That's right. Romantic.

40:05

But for one of our listeners,

40:07

it got even weirder than that

40:09

when he met a good -looking gal.

at a furniture store. Have

darlings. Pack your suitcase for

43:54

a new season of the

43:57

Hulu original reality series, Banda

43:59

Pumpfilla. Let's do this. Ciao.

44:01

It's Stasi. Of course Lisa

44:03

brought in her favorite to be resident

44:05

chaperone of the castle. Stasi is

44:07

an icon. She's my eyes and

44:09

ears. I love this. Get ready

44:11

for the luxury and drama that

44:14

awaits us in Italy. Cheers to

44:16

all the toxic couples in the

44:18

castle. Season two of Banda Pumpfilla

44:20

premieres April 24th, streaming on Hulu.

44:44

Hulu. Oh,

44:47

not like Bumble, specifically him.

44:49

She says Bumble is second, nobody

44:51

is on Tinder if you're

44:54

seriously trying to find marriage. Number

44:57

three was a little bit surprising

44:59

though, she said college sweethearts. Not

45:01

a website like people who

45:03

actually met in college. Like,

45:05

who's joining the

45:07

app? CollegeSweethearts.com. It

45:10

does sound like an adult website. People

45:13

who met. It sounds like women

45:15

looking for sugar daddy. No, it's

45:17

like the relationship lasted beyond graduation.

45:20

That's a weird one. And then

45:22

the rarest is meeting somebody naturally

45:24

out in the wild. And I

45:26

don't know if I hear animal

45:28

noises right now, but that's exactly

45:30

what happened with one of our

45:32

listeners, Chad. Oh, how wild was

45:34

it, Chad? He was a lone

45:36

tiger loosened the jungle Roman -free till

45:39

a certain frisky feline caught his

45:41

eye. So let's learn about it.

45:43

Chad, welcome to the show. Hey,

45:45

thanks. Hey, you're welcome Chad. You

45:47

sound like a frisky feline. Yeah.

45:49

No, he's the prowling tiger. Yeah. Well,

45:51

it's still a feline. Well, yeah. A

45:53

big feline. Sure. And tell us about

45:56

the girl that you met. What's her

45:58

name? Her name is Lucy.

46:00

Okay. And where out in the wild

46:02

did you meet Lucy? I met

46:04

Lucy at a furniture store. Why

46:07

does that scream awesome? Because like

46:09

shopping for furniture, I could see girls

46:11

out and about. I would just

46:13

assume everyone at a furniture store is

46:15

married. Yeah. I've never stepped in

46:17

a furniture. I like Kia. Yeah.

46:20

Also, they got money because furniture

46:22

is not cheap. Yeah. Kia,

46:24

you're spending a couple hundred bucks. Yeah.

46:26

So you were like a legit store.

46:28

This wasn't like assemble your furniture. One

46:30

of the nice ones was wood. Shots

46:32

fired at Ikea with that one. So

46:34

how did you and Lucy, like how

46:37

did that interaction happen in the store?

46:39

Well, I was walking around the store.

46:41

I was just there looking to upgrade

46:44

my place. And I had zeroed in

46:46

on this one sofa. But then Lucy

46:48

came in and was looking at the

46:50

exact same couch arm wrestle who for

46:52

whoever's gonna buy it yeah i mean

46:54

i wish i could have i mean

46:56

i would have loved to have done

46:59

that did you do the gentleman thing

47:01

and buy the couch for her oh

47:03

really that's a gentleman thing it's like

47:05

buying dinner i don't have that much

47:07

money i'm just kidding brother what was

47:09

your move The move was just the

47:11

guy like what do you like about

47:13

the couch and then it just kind

47:16

of got to a level where we

47:18

weren't just talking about a couch And

47:20

eventually you're gonna have to spoon on

47:22

it together to see if two people

47:24

fit That's important! You want to hop

47:26

on with me and just throw out

47:28

of it! Brooke has a really

47:30

weird way of flirting I will say I

47:32

feel like we shouldn't have her let loose

47:34

in a furniture store Yeah, it didn't get

47:37

too racy. We just kept like trying it

47:39

out I'm shocked it didn't

47:41

get too sexual. That's cute though. That's

47:43

a really organic way to have conversation.

47:45

It is good because you're kind of

47:47

playing like you're a couple already by

47:49

like shopping together. It kind of like

47:51

plants that image into your mind in

47:53

a subtle way. Not only that, it's

47:55

important for him to know if women

47:57

like this couch. Yeah. Oh my

47:59

gosh. That's fair. Were you able to spin

48:02

it into a date? Yeah,

48:04

you come to find out we

48:06

both wanted the couch. Yeah, there's sales

48:08

people at these high -end furniture stores

48:10

And so it's like, okay, we're

48:12

both interested in the couch and the

48:14

guys like this is it. There's

48:16

just the one And then you guys

48:18

started to fight so what's the

48:20

move? I was like, okay Well, we

48:22

both want the couch, but if

48:24

you want me to let you have

48:26

it then why don't you give

48:28

me something? in return, you

48:30

know, like your phone number. Oh,

48:33

OK. Because

48:35

they also sell beds over here. So

48:37

that's a good way to get her

48:39

number. Did she like that? Yeah, I

48:41

mean, good enough to give me the

48:43

number. I mean, she got the couch.

48:46

Oh, yeah. Wait, hold up, hold up.

48:48

You got the number and now she's

48:50

ghosting you. I think they went out.

48:52

Yeah. Did you go out or is

48:54

this it? So like fast forward to

48:56

like the next three days. And we're

48:58

texting a lot. I mean, like, and

49:00

I say that a lot, I mean,

49:02

like 50 times a day. A day?

49:04

Wow. I haven't texted anybody 50 times

49:06

in my whole life. I really like

49:08

each other. So we scheduled

49:11

a date and then she

49:13

backed out. And I wanted

49:15

to reschedule and then like

49:17

she backed out again the

49:19

night before. Okay, are

49:21

you? She's convincing herself not to

49:23

go this date. So it's weird that you guys

49:25

were talking so much, though, via text. I don't

49:28

know. Someone who can't say no, I would probably

49:30

give up my number and talk for a few

49:32

days to not feel bad. And wait till the

49:34

couch is delivered and at my home, and then

49:36

stop texting. And then you finally would be over

49:38

it. Yeah, yeah. Chad, are you feeling like maybe

49:40

the only reason that she said she would, like,

49:42

give the number and go out on a date

49:44

was just to get the couch? Like, that was

49:46

the whole point of it? That thought has crossed

49:48

my mind, but then there's all these texts in

49:50

between, so then, like, I didn't... recon I like

49:52

googled myself and I was like all right nothing

49:54

weird came up here I

49:59

mean, here's the thing. She gave you her

50:01

number, but she could have easily given you a

50:03

fake number. Yeah, that's true. You know, like,

50:05

she didn't have to give you her real phone

50:07

number. Yeah, it's weird that she's backing out

50:09

all of a sudden. We're gonna call Lucy and

50:11

try and get to the bottom of this

50:14

because if she says no to going out with

50:16

you, then you deserve that couch, in my

50:18

opinion. No, that wasn't the deal. It was just

50:20

a phone number, Jeff. Oh, yeah, he should

50:22

have made a better deal. Sorry. That

50:24

was on you, Chad. And you just improved your

50:26

negotiation skills. I know. I thought it was a

50:28

fair deal, but it turns out not so much.

50:31

Yeah, you followed through. But anyways, I need your

50:33

help and hope you can help me out. All

50:35

right, well, we're going to try our best. We'll

50:37

come back and get you your second date update

50:39

right after this, man. Hold on. Second

50:41

date update. I'm

50:44

not a lawyer. But Chad, if

50:46

we're not successful in getting you

50:48

another date, what about at least

50:50

getting you visitation with the couch?

50:53

It doesn't need to be much.

50:55

Just one weekend a month, maybe

50:57

split it on holidays. We

50:59

can negotiate something. Yeah. I'm sure. Oh,

51:01

you know, shared custody is what

51:03

you're saying. Yeah. OK. Chad seems to

51:05

like that idea. Because if you

51:07

miss part one, he met Lucy at

51:09

a furniture store recently when they

51:12

both liked the same exact couch. But

51:14

he generously have it if in

51:16

exchange, she gave him his number. Yeah.

51:18

Yeah. mean, that was the deal

51:20

that they made. Yeah, was a smooth

51:22

move, but she keeps backing out

51:24

of dates now, and now their initial

51:26

flame is pretty much gone completely

51:28

ice cold. Yeah, they're losing chemistry fast.

51:30

So we, he doesn't know why

51:32

we need to try and help figure

51:34

it out. Can I ask Chad,

51:36

the one thing I never, you know,

51:38

we never really got into, you

51:40

said you guys texted back and forth

51:42

a ton. Was there any like

51:44

inappropriate texting or something that could have

51:46

Or it could have been read

51:48

wrong, even. You know, sometimes you send

51:51

something thinking you're joking and the

51:53

other person doesn't read it right. Can

51:55

you read some inappropriate text to

51:57

Brooke right now? She really wants to

51:59

hear some. I just mean, is

52:01

there something that stands out in all

52:03

of those conversations that you had?

52:05

No, I mean it was flirty, but

52:07

without crossing the line to the

52:09

way I think about it asked about

52:11

the couch, you know How's the

52:13

couch doing is is it okay? Yeah,

52:16

exactly. He really did that though.

52:18

Yeah, that's what he said Okay

52:30

This is what text messaging

52:32

is like right now you

52:34

can't tell tone It's okay,

52:37

let's call Lucy and Hopefully

52:39

it's not what we were

52:41

talking about earlier to where

52:43

it was just all a

52:45

big scam so that she

52:47

could get the couch said

52:57

oh well thank you and smiled and gave

52:59

you her number that's all that you asked

53:02

there's no one in the room that wouldn't

53:04

agree with that yeah yeah that was a

53:06

case then I don't know why she would

53:08

even agree to go out with me at

53:10

the start of it it's a good point

53:12

yeah yeah that's true so hopefully there's an

53:14

explanation let me dial her number right now

53:16

let's see if she picks up here we

53:18

go Hey,

53:27

we're looking to speak with

53:29

Lucy Yeah, we're a radio

53:31

show called Brooke and Jeffrey

53:34

in the morning You're on

53:36

the show Lucy Okay, what's

53:38

this about? It's

53:40

our couch reviews segment in

53:42

a way. Yeah, cuz we're

53:44

doing a segment called second

53:47

date update What is that? It's

53:50

a segment we do where if someone's in

53:52

like a dating scenario and a person blows you

53:55

off or You're not getting back to them.

53:57

We'll reach out on behalf of that person to

53:59

try and figure out if there's a reason

54:01

for it. Yeah. Just to like help them understand

54:03

what's going on. And this one's kind of

54:05

out of the norm because you never actually

54:07

went on a first date. Right. Yeah. Because we're

54:09

talking about a guy named Chad. Are

54:13

you shitting me? Sorry.

54:17

I didn't expect that response. We don't need

54:19

to explain more like couch guy. You

54:21

know exactly who we're talking about. Yeah, we

54:23

are not s -ing you. Chad

54:26

says that you guys met at

54:28

a furniture store and you exchanged

54:30

numbers. It seemed like there was

54:32

like some flirtation there. Did he read that right? I

54:35

mean, yeah. have

54:38

a good reason for it, but it

54:40

would just be super uncomfortable to tell him. Oh,

54:43

you have a good reason for not.

54:45

Calling him back or going on the date.

54:47

Yeah, cuz he said that you guys

54:49

had scheduled dates and you kept bailing Yes,

54:51

I did bail Wait, can I ask

54:53

her just blunt like did you scam her

54:55

boy? Did you just I think the

54:57

question is did you ever have any intention

55:00

of actually going on a date? Okay,

55:02

then now let me ask did you ever

55:04

have any intention of actually going on

55:06

a date edit it so I sound smarter

55:11

I mean, I wasn't gonna go on a date

55:13

with him. I didn't have a problem with

55:15

him. It was just like... got the whole couch

55:17

thing, and then a few days after I

55:20

met Chad, I came back to the furniture place

55:22

with some of my friends to pick up

55:24

the couch, because one of my friends was a

55:26

pickup truck, whatever. Oh, yeah. You gotta have

55:28

a friend with a truck. Oh, you didn't order

55:30

delivery? Yeah. You have

55:32

not ever would get a $4 ,000 delivery. Jeff

55:34

probably would have got a delivery. Jeff doesn't have

55:36

truck guys in his friend circle. He's

55:38

like, I just have one of my assistants make me

55:40

a new couch. Do you want me to come by

55:42

with my Escalade? See, you guys know

55:44

how it works. Yeah, OK. Anyways. You went to

55:46

the store to pick it up yourself. Yeah, with

55:48

some friends and then what happened? Yeah,

55:50

so I went inside to pay and

55:53

who do I see? Chad.

55:56

Why is that bad? Wait, why is he

55:58

here again? needs a couch. Yeah, you

56:00

took the couch that he wanted to buy

56:02

so he probably had to get a

56:04

new one. Okay. No, he wasn't like shopping.

56:06

He was asleep on one of the

56:08

couches like in the back room area. What?

56:11

I didn't even know what to do. He didn't

56:13

see me. Like he was asleep. He didn't

56:15

see me. His eyes were closed. Maybe he was

56:17

just trying to couch out too hard. Yeah.

56:19

No way too hard. Well, it was so awkward.

56:22

I was just going to leave, but I

56:24

just asked the cashier. I was like, Hey,

56:26

what's the deal with that guy on the

56:28

gray couch? And he's like, Oh, that's the

56:30

Napper. But like, he just said it like

56:32

it's a nickname. The Napper

56:34

is his nickname. What?

56:37

Yeah, they called him the Napper.

56:39

The Napper. Okay. So

56:41

they got a nickname for him. Yeah.

56:43

So like, apparently he comes in

56:45

during his lunch break and he takes

56:47

off his shoes and he takes

56:49

a literal nap. No. Oh, he

56:51

comes in that often? He said that

56:53

the boss, like the manager, lets him do

56:55

it because like once a month, he

56:57

buys all the employees lunch. Oh, they just

56:59

let him do it. Oh, wow. Oh,

57:01

smart. That's a hack. Oh,

57:03

my God. So he's sleeping during

57:05

his lunch break. What's going through your mind

57:07

as they're telling you this, Lucy? I

57:10

don't want to go out with the napper,

57:12

like especially that he has a nickname. Yeah,

57:14

but he liked the couch you were on.

57:16

He's tried them all out at the store.

57:18

Yeah, like you just happen to be talking

57:20

to the expert and he has a house

57:22

like he just goes during his lunch. Yeah,

57:25

but you're turned off by the idea of

57:27

a guy who spends every lunch break going

57:29

into a nap store and hanging out. Well,

57:32

sorry, sorry furniture store and earned

57:34

a reputation as a napper. Honestly,

57:36

though, rebranding a furniture store to

57:38

the Nap Store sounds like everybody's

57:40

going to be doing it. I

57:43

think you should give him a second chance on

57:45

that one. I think you should at least hear him

57:47

out on what he has to say, Lucy, because

57:49

he is on the other line right now listening in

57:51

on this conversation. No, really. Unless

57:53

he fell asleep in his napping. So, Chad,

57:56

are you there? Yeah, I'm here. Hey,

57:58

Lucy. Hi.

58:02

Yeah, hi. Chad, it's so

58:04

weird that you have a reputation as a guy who

58:06

napped in public. I mean,

58:08

I don't understand what the big deal is. I

58:10

mean, it's like going into a subway and making

58:12

your own sandwich. You just don't do that. If

58:15

I could go into subway and make

58:17

my own sandwich, I'd do it. But

58:19

I mean, it's right near my work.

58:21

They have nice employees. Obviously they have

58:23

really comfy furniture. So they get new

58:25

furniture in. I get to test like

58:28

the couches. And I know which ones

58:30

are like the softest and the best.

58:32

And that's why you're in on the

58:34

one you bought. Did you nap on

58:36

the couch that I bought? Yes.

58:41

I wanted to buy it I told you it

58:43

was soft I

58:49

mean you skin cells are

58:52

gross. We're gonna go on a

58:54

date. I mean you probably

58:56

have your tongue in my mouth

58:58

A good nap is really

59:00

leading a good life. Yeah, that's

59:02

the way I live man

59:05

We're not talking about if naps

59:07

are good or not. We're

59:09

talking about if Lucy is attracted

59:11

to a man who does

59:13

that I don't understand so much

59:16

that he has a moniker I

59:19

still haven't heard a solid reason,

59:21

Lucy, why this is a turnoff. Yeah,

59:23

me neither. Explain it to Chad. Guys,

59:25

it's weird and it's embarrassing. Yeah, but

59:28

it's only the Kyle the showroom guy

59:30

who knows about it, you know? Yeah,

59:32

we're not going on dates at the

59:34

furniture store. If you

59:36

really aren't that embarrassed by it, why didn't

59:38

you say that when we met? Why weren't

59:40

you like, hey, I really like this couch.

59:42

I've been sleeping on it for the last

59:44

three weeks. Maybe

59:46

I should have. You

59:53

guys sound like you actually have some

59:55

chemistry here. I don't think that you should

59:57

let this like get in the way

59:59

And if you're willing to not let it

1:00:01

get in the way then I guess

1:00:03

we're willing to pay for it for your

1:00:05

next date No, because if I like

1:00:08

him now I'm dating the napper and I

1:00:10

just don't want to do that He's

1:00:12

resourceful He's friendly, you

1:00:14

know. He knows where tongues go. And

1:00:16

hopefully he has enough money to get

1:00:18

your couch officially cleaned too, Lucy, with all

1:00:20

those dead skin cells that he's left

1:00:23

on. I would be more worried about the

1:00:25

slobber. Gross. Hey,

1:00:27

look, I just want to let you know I

1:00:29

did not leave any residue on your couch. Pretty

1:00:31

clean. It's weird you have to say

1:00:33

it. I tell every girl I talked to, I did not

1:00:35

leave residue on your couch. I promise. Brooke

1:00:38

and Jeffrey in the morning. You

1:00:40

know, it was interesting to hear Brooke and

1:00:42

Alexis' take on that. I don't know why

1:00:44

you were so anti. I'm not anti, I'm

1:00:46

just saying. It felt like it, though. Yeah,

1:00:48

well, it was just if it was me,

1:00:50

and I walked into a store and I

1:00:53

saw the person that I was scheduled to

1:00:55

date sleeping there, and I found out all

1:00:57

of the employees know that person as the

1:00:59

sleeper. During this watch break. It would still,

1:01:02

that would be like, this is kind of weird.

1:01:04

I would take a step back and reassess. I

1:01:06

think it's because we've all slept and taken naps

1:01:08

in our car before. He's

1:01:10

actually taking

1:01:12

a one

1:01:14

-up from

1:01:16

us. I

1:01:18

also didn't

1:01:20

really understand

1:01:22

Brooke's point

1:01:24

that she'd

1:01:26

saddle up

1:01:28

next to

1:01:30

him and

1:01:32

spoon him

1:01:34

That's really

1:01:36

sweet It's

1:01:39

just when I'm looking at the text board 78592,

1:01:41

it is split. Some people thought that it was weird.

1:01:43

Some people are like, that's awesome. Good for that

1:01:45

guy. Yeah. Anybody's employees

1:01:47

lunch. Yeah. They're taking advantage of

1:01:49

them. Yeah, that's why they

1:01:51

let him. Let's normalize napping in

1:01:53

random stores. Now

1:01:55

we're on board, Jeff. We got you there. If you

1:01:57

see Brooke asleep at Old Navy today, do not judge

1:01:59

1:08:08

the radio segment that

1:08:10

created a new dating app

1:08:12

combining Tinder and yoga

1:08:14

called Flexifinder. Will

1:08:17

your prospective partner look better

1:08:19

in Downward Dog? Your match

1:08:21

is just one deep stretch away. Well, wait, I

1:08:23

can't even bend over to you. Yeah, you're

1:08:26

not allowed on the app. It's all thanks to

1:08:28

laser stories. This segment where

1:08:30

we read weird news stories around the globe,

1:08:32

just like everyone else does, except we've

1:08:34

got a laser, and those other chakra -tua

1:08:36

girls just don't. This first

1:08:38

laser story is out of Australia.

1:08:41

There's a crazy story that made the

1:08:43

news in Melbourne about a guy

1:08:45

in a red Porsche that caused a

1:08:47

deadly crash, then pulled a gun,

1:08:49

shot another guy in the arm, stole

1:08:51

an SUV, and got

1:08:54

in another wreck before cops

1:08:56

finally arrested him. And that's

1:08:58

just a normal day in Texas.

1:09:00

Florida is so jealous right now.

1:09:02

Yeah, Florida is jealous! It's so

1:09:04

true, but it's going viral, surprisingly

1:09:06

though, not for any of the

1:09:08

details I just mentioned. Why? It's

1:09:10

because of the witnesses who were

1:09:13

interviewed about it. Two sisters in

1:09:15

their fifties named Bridget and Paula

1:09:17

Powers. They are identical twins and

1:09:19

they told reporters in complete unison

1:09:21

about what they saw. Oh, I

1:09:23

saw this. And one guy, he

1:09:25

was up there with our mom.

1:09:27

He went up there and he

1:09:29

was coming back down towards us

1:09:31

and he goes run, he's got

1:09:34

a gun. and our

1:09:36

heart started to pound and I

1:09:38

said, oh mum, where's mum? And

1:09:41

I thought poor mum was stuck

1:09:43

up there, but apparently you're our brave

1:09:45

mum. She goes, are you alright?

1:09:47

Because he had all blood all over

1:09:49

his face. And he goes,

1:09:52

I'll shoot you. She goes, hey,

1:09:54

I'm here to help. Oh

1:09:56

my god. I'm so sorry, I

1:09:58

didn't hear anything. They say, that is

1:10:00

what my youngest kid does to

1:10:02

my oldest kid to annoy the crap

1:10:04

out of them. But they're not

1:10:06

doing it purpose. either 50?

1:10:08

One is saying it right after. If

1:10:10

I was the sister that was actually doing

1:10:12

the talking, I would punch the other

1:10:14

sister next to me. But they're both sharing

1:10:16

the mic. Just let me talk. It

1:10:19

turns out this wasn't the first taste

1:10:21

of the limelight for these twins. They

1:10:23

were internet famous before this interview, especially in

1:10:25

Australia, because Piers Morgan spoke to them

1:10:27

on Good Morning Britain in 2016. And

1:10:29

they told him they do not rehearse

1:10:32

this, it's just something they do involuntarily because

1:10:34

they've been so close for their entire

1:10:36

lives. Can you imagine dating one of these

1:10:38

women? I was gonna say, we always

1:10:40

talk about that fantasy, how annoying would be?

1:10:42

Unless they're saying nice things to you,

1:10:44

then it's like a double compliment. I see.

1:10:46

It's like an echo, yeah. You're handsome,

1:10:48

handsome. This next laser

1:10:50

story is out of Grill Talk. Last

1:10:53

week red Robin announced that

1:10:55

they were selling bottomless burger

1:10:57

passes Which would get you

1:10:59

a burger and bottomless side

1:11:01

every day of the month

1:11:04

of May for only $20

1:11:06

total Along with their bottomless

1:11:08

fries Well as expected they

1:11:10

sold out instantly and even

1:11:12

worse their website crashed So

1:11:14

many people weren't even able

1:11:17

to get the satisfaction of

1:11:19

seeing that they were too

1:11:21

late. burger

1:11:24

people. Some fans were

1:11:26

frustrated and vented on social

1:11:29

media. One said, I spent

1:11:31

literally an hour refreshing for

1:11:33

nothing. What incredible incompetence. I

1:11:36

feel like admitting that you spent an hour

1:11:38

trying to do this and it didn't work should

1:11:40

not be something to put out to the

1:11:42

public. Just keep that to yourself. Another said, it

1:11:44

was literally easier to get tickets to Taylor

1:11:46

Swift than it was to get a Red Robin

1:11:48

burger pass. Red Robin

1:11:50

did apologize for their website going

1:11:52

down but also took a moment to

1:11:54

hype another sweepstakes coming up that

1:11:56

offers free burgers for a year. Double

1:11:58

rainbow, oh my god. They've

1:12:01

posted details about that on their

1:12:03

site, which is back up, but

1:12:05

there'll only be 12 winners for

1:12:07

it. So that's like Taylor Swift

1:12:09

VIP tickets. Yeah. Really? Start

1:12:11

refreshing your browsers now. We love

1:12:13

Red Robin. This next laser story

1:12:15

is out of the Algorithm Lounge.

1:12:18

I try to find this price. It

1:12:20

is so hard. So hard to

1:12:22

get into. You might not know this,

1:12:24

but being nice to your chat

1:12:26

GPT is actually costing companies millions of

1:12:28

dollars. I was gonna

1:12:30

say what that guy said.

1:12:33

A Washington Post investigation found that

1:12:35

saying please and thank you

1:12:37

more than a few times a

1:12:39

day to your artificial intelligence

1:12:41

bot uses about 0 .14 kilowatt

1:12:43

hours of electricity. That's about 46

1:12:45

% of what an average U

1:12:47

.S. home uses in an hour.

1:12:51

So when you're being nice to it, it's

1:12:53

actually using up more energy to process

1:12:55

so much. Wow, so please and thank you.

1:12:57

It costs a lot of money. So

1:12:59

what about shut up? Can you write that

1:13:01

to it? Is that also gonna? No.

1:13:03

It's less energy. No, it's not. Go with

1:13:05

that. It can get expensive, but not

1:13:07

everyone thinks we should drop the pleasantries. A

1:13:10

higher up at Microsoft says that using

1:13:12

polite language sets the tone for a professional

1:13:14

response. Oh, I see. Yeah, I've

1:13:16

always said please and thank you. As for

1:13:18

the numbers, 67 % of Americans say they

1:13:20

sweet talk their AI, while half say they

1:13:22

do it because it's just the right thing

1:13:24

to do. Yeah, that's why I do it.

1:13:26

And 12 % of people hope it might spare

1:13:28

them in an AI uprising someday. They're

1:13:31

like, all right, check the list. Is he

1:13:34

on the list? Take him

1:13:36

out. This next

1:13:38

slideshow is out of the people pods. Have

1:13:41

you ever noticed that nicknames just

1:13:43

aren't as common anymore? I

1:13:45

give people nicknames though. I finally got a

1:13:48

nickname when I was like 25 from a

1:13:50

group of friends, and I loved it. It's

1:13:52

Panina. Right, but that was like 30 years

1:13:54

ago Brooke. I'm saying now they're not as

1:13:56

common. It made me feel

1:13:58

so special. A writer for the Wall

1:14:00

Street Journal claims that they're going extinct.

1:14:02

Jeff! The writer has five children aged

1:14:04

6 to 18, none of them

1:14:06

have been given any nicknames by their

1:14:08

pals, and none of their friends seem

1:14:10

to have one either. He

1:14:15

claims all types of nicknames

1:14:17

are in decline everything from

1:14:19

junior to calling your buddy

1:14:21

from Dallas Tex I

1:14:26

mean, I haven't heard one person call

1:14:28

my daughter, N -Dog, or, you know, like,

1:14:30

what's up, A -Ball? Yeah, that would

1:14:32

be The N -Dog would be a trip

1:14:34

to the principal's office, I feel. That's

1:14:36

like what you call Nate Dogg. Yeah, no

1:14:38

one knows who that is anymore. The

1:14:41

writer thinks it's kind of sad

1:14:43

because nicknames are almost always a positive

1:14:45

thing, or at least a sign

1:14:47

of affection. He says even initials like

1:14:49

AJ or JD seems less common

1:14:51

now, partly because parents take their names

1:14:53

so much more seriously than they

1:14:55

used to. I also think everybody has

1:14:57

such different names now. It's like

1:14:59

that years ago you might have called

1:15:02

your heavy set friend tiny as

1:15:04

a joke, but now you'd be more

1:15:06

worried about calling attention to anybody's

1:15:08

weight. There could be something else you

1:15:10

could call attention to other than

1:15:12

this. There's nothing

1:15:14

else to his personality bro. Same

1:15:17

thing goes for calling someone red because they're

1:15:19

a ginger. Everybody

1:15:27

go around the room real quick and say

1:15:29

a name they wish was allowed to be said.

1:15:31

Alexis, go. Okay,

1:15:33

never mind. Could have been

1:15:35

fun. Obviously, Nicknames will never fully

1:15:37

go extinct. Plenty of athletes

1:15:40

and radio hosts still choose to

1:15:42

go by a nickname, like

1:15:44

Jeff Dogwater de Beau and his

1:15:46

trusty sidekick, Humber. Nicknames

1:15:50

that many predict will

1:15:52

someday be memorialized in the

1:15:54

Radio Hall of Fame. Dogwater!

1:15:57

Yeah, there's Dogwater DeBeau doing his thing,

1:15:59

and that sound means laser stories has

1:16:01

come to an end for the day.

1:16:03

We'll do it again same time on

1:16:05

Friday. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

1:16:15

Brooks been on a hot streak

1:16:17

a little bit lately guys. Thanks,

1:16:20

Jeff. I'm playing an 80s song

1:16:22

because Brooke is a proud 1880s

1:16:24

baby. 1880s. Who has been

1:16:26

just smoking the competition lately. That's

1:16:28

right, me and my powdered

1:16:30

white wig. But her challenger today

1:16:32

is Erin, who is joining

1:16:34

the millions and millions of protesters

1:16:36

all over the country begging

1:16:38

Brooke to stop the streak. Erin,

1:16:41

welcome to the show. How you doing,

1:16:43

man? I'm doing good. I am here. Scott

1:16:45

Brooke right now. That's right. That's my

1:16:47

goal. Wait, what'd you say? I said, Brooke,

1:16:49

you're awesome and amazing person. I hope

1:16:51

you got it. Oh, wow. It sounded so

1:16:53

different the first time you said it.

1:16:55

That was so interesting. be in a long

1:16:57

-term relationship because you answered that question correctly.

1:16:59

Again, he's trained well. He's

1:17:02

lulling you into a false sense of security. I'll

1:17:04

take it. I love to be lulled. OK, you go

1:17:06

lull yourself out of the studio so we can

1:17:08

get the game going here. You got 30 seconds to

1:17:10

answer as many questions there and as possible. If

1:17:12

you don't know and you can say pass, but you

1:17:14

have to beat Brooke outright if you want to

1:17:16

win. Are you ready? I am ready.

1:17:18

Good luck, my man. Your time starts

1:17:20

now. 20 years ago to this day, the

1:17:22

first video was uploaded to what popular

1:17:24

streaming site? Netflix.

1:17:28

What do you call the big fancy belt that

1:17:30

goes around the stomach on a tuxedo? Cumberbomb.

1:17:34

Lightyear is a fictional tire

1:17:36

brand used in what animated Disney

1:17:38

franchise? Of

1:17:42

course.

1:17:46

What's the official term for a group of

1:17:48

witches? A

1:17:50

wick in. A wick in. We'll

1:17:52

take that. Took your time with answering

1:17:54

those questions very carefully. Erin, good

1:17:56

work there. We'll see how you do

1:17:59

against Brooke now because you told

1:18:01

our producer the last time you played

1:18:03

her, you got absolutely crushed. Not

1:18:05

because Brooke was doing so well, but

1:18:07

because you cracked under the pressure.

1:18:09

How do you feel like you performed

1:18:11

this time around? I feel like

1:18:13

there's a couple cracks in my game again.

1:18:15

I don't, I don't know. What you? I think

1:18:17

it's okay. An egg, so

1:18:19

fragile. Oh. A little bit

1:18:22

fragile. Yeah, got you. Fighting

1:18:24

words. I feel like you've

1:18:26

been in many relationships saying things like

1:18:28

that. She's

1:18:30

having to cycle through them. Only

1:18:32

one really good stable one though. That's

1:18:35

all that matters. Yeah, I love

1:18:37

it. Wow. Oh my god. Words flying.

1:18:39

Lots of tempers flaring here. We

1:18:41

better move on and get to the

1:18:43

game. Brooke, you ready? Yeah, I'm

1:18:45

ready. Your time starts now. 20 years

1:18:47

ago to this day, the first

1:18:49

video was uploaded to what popular streaming

1:18:51

site? Ooh, YouTube. What do you

1:18:53

call the big fancy belt that goes

1:18:55

around the stomach on a tuxedo?

1:18:57

Uh, Cumberbund. Lightyear is a fictional tire

1:19:00

brand used in what animated Disney

1:19:02

franchise? Cars. What is the official

1:19:04

term for a group of witches? A

1:19:06

coven. The longest hiking -only

1:19:08

trail in the world is

1:19:10

over 2 ,000 miles long and

1:19:12

crosses over 14 states. Whoa!

1:19:14

What's its name? Appalachian. Trail.

1:19:18

Just snuck the final piece of that

1:19:20

answer in. Let's go to the scoreboard

1:19:22

to see how you bolted with Jose. Oh,

1:19:26

you darn crazy

1:19:28

galoot. Balaños. Aaron,

1:19:30

you got two correct today. Oh,

1:19:32

OK. You did take time. That's not

1:19:35

going to be enough. We

1:19:37

don't know. Brooke didn't get one

1:19:39

wrong. Wow. Five in a

1:19:41

row. Whoa. Hey, but just

1:19:43

because you predicted his own loss, let's give

1:19:45

him one extra point. Okay, so now it's a

1:19:47

5 -3 loss. It's more respectable. I like it.

1:19:49

Let's go over the answers for everybody, though.

1:19:51

20 years ago to this day, the very first

1:19:53

video was uploaded to YouTube. Yay!

1:19:56

And look where it went. Amazing. know. Go

1:19:58

follow mine. Was it like a zoo video

1:20:00

something? It was. It was a random like

1:20:02

San Diego Zoo. Yeah. What do

1:20:04

you call the big fancy belt

1:20:06

that goes around the stomach on a

1:20:08

tuxedo? That's a cummerbund? Yeah. Light

1:20:10

years the fictional tire brand used in

1:20:12

the cars franchise the official term

1:20:14

for a group of witches is a

1:20:16

coven of course Brooke knows what

1:20:18

that is a couple Yeah, the longest

1:20:20

hiking only trail in the world

1:20:22

is 2 ,000 miles long crossing 14

1:20:24

states that would be the Appalachian Trail

1:20:26

Hiking only Pacific crest trail is

1:20:28

shorter than that. Is that true? My

1:20:30

last hike was from the couch

1:20:32

to the refrigerator It felt long 14

1:20:34

states would be the the hint

1:20:36

in that one. Right, that's why I

1:20:38

said Appalachian. You can call the

1:20:41

Crappalachian Trail in your house. Even more

1:20:43

treacherous. So it was not enough

1:20:45

to win today, Erin, but good news

1:20:47

is just for playing, we are

1:20:49

going to give you two tickets to

1:20:51

see the Seattle Mariners take on

1:20:53

the Miami Marlins on Sunday, April at

1:20:55

T -Mobile Park. On Sunday. Don't

1:21:24

do that before trivia games come back a

1:21:26

little bit The

1:21:35

best moments happen when you're with your

1:21:37

people. Laughin', vibing, and

1:21:39

just enjoying life. Coke

1:21:41

is making those moments even sweeter.

1:21:44

Share a Coke is back, and it's all

1:21:46

about sharing with the whole crew. Doesn't

1:21:48

matter if it's your bestie or bro, there's

1:21:50

a can with their name on it.

1:21:52

So grab one for the squad and make

1:21:55

some memories. But hurry, because these Coca -Cola

1:21:57

limited edition bottles and cans won't be

1:21:59

here forever. Don't miss your chance

1:22:01

to share a Coke with all your favorite people. A

1:22:07

other. Celebrate her love,

1:22:28

Not everyone who handles your personal information is

1:22:31

going to be as careful as you

1:22:33

are. And it only takes one mistake to

1:22:35

expose it to hackers and identity theft. Maybe

1:22:37

that's why there's a new victim
