Okay, thank you. Now, this roommate is an actual roommate,
not like a relationship that you're.
Speaker 4 (01:15):
In, right, No, it's my roommate. We've been rooming together
well over a year.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Okay, all right, were you guys friends prior to moving
in together or not?
Speaker 4 (01:28):
We knew of each other. I wouldn't say we were
a friend.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Okay.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
We had mutual friends, but you didn't necessarily hang out often.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
No, okay, So what's going on between you and her?
What is her name? By the way?
Speaker 4 (01:40):
Okay? Her name is Lily?
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Okay?
Speaker 4 (01:42):
And like I said, you know, we weren't best friends
in the beginning, but you know, it's been a while
and over time we've become friendly. And I don't know,
like if I come home after work and she comes
home after work and we don't have dinner plans, like
we'll go grab dinner together.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Okay, So you guys do stuff together.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Yeah, you're each other's last result.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Are you sure you're not in a relationship.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
I mean, I guess it kind of is like that.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Okay. So what's the problem between you and Lily? Or
is there a problem?
Speaker 4 (02:12):
No, there is. She's been acting a little cold to
me lately.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
God, that's so uncomfortable.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
Like hiding behind the bedroom door, you know, keeping a
closed door, which we never did before. We always had
that open.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
Oh, you mean just like shutting the door a lot
instead of talking with her. I pictured her like playing
a one sided game of.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
In the studio. Yeah, okay, do you know why she's
acting that way?
Speaker 4 (02:40):
I kind of think I do, maybe, but I'm not positive.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
Did you like borrow something of hers without telling her
or something?
Speaker 4 (02:48):
No, I've been kind of hooking up with her ex
boyfriend a little bit.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
It's kind of like borrow something that was her.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
No, listen, the thing of it is is like she
shouldn't know though. She's like, I don't know how she
would know.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
So was she usually asleep when this happens? Like, what
are you talking about?
Speaker 4 (03:14):
Okay, So we were like hanging out at a house
party one night, and we've hung out a couple of times,
him and I and I actually am kind of catching
a little bit of feeling for him.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
No, No, this is this isn't good. You're acting so
cavalier about it. But this is like I don't know.
This is like roommate code one oh one. You can't
hook up with each other's exes. It's just there's a
line drawn there.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
Well, unless you have permission to do it.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
But she doesn't know.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
Yeah, no, that, but she doesn't know exactly, Like I
haven't told her about it. He hasn't told her about
nobody's told her about it, so there's no way that
she knows. So I'm like, is she mad at me
for some other thing? And like I kind of want
to know what that is? If that's it?
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (03:55):
And so now you're emailing us for help about this?
What are you looking to do with your phone call?
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Here?
Speaker 4 (04:00):
I feel like I can explain it in like a
really decent I had a decent explanation.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
So wait, you want to tell her?
Speaker 4 (04:09):
I mean I think it's ninety nine percent that situation though.
I think I'm gonna have to tell her, but I
don't know how to have that conversation.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
Yeah, I mean how long ago was the There's two
things like how long ago was a breakup? And how
bad was a breakup? You know, I think that that
will make a big difference.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
I mean, I've heard two different stories, so they're bad.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
Okay, so bad when they're not on the same page.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Oh man, I don't know this helps, but I feel uncomfortable. Yeah,
this is so awkward.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
Yeah, like I would pack to move out before we call, because.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
Like you still want to live with her through all
of this.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
Yeah, and you.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Still want to date her ex boyfriend?
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (04:59):
Okay, a cake and eat it too situation.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
I mean, I wouldn't have any problem if the roles
were reversed, but I don't know how she feels about that.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Some honestly are different. So I will do.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
Okay, maybe, but let's plan for her not feeling that way.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Yeah. Well, I mean, if that's really how you feel,
maybe you can have an ex boyfriend of yours just
ready in your pocket to throw out there when we
call her little ex boyfriend swap. But we're gonna play
a song, we'll come back, We'll give you a little
bit of advice, and then we will step back and
let you make your awkward Tuesday phone call to your
roommate to tell her, Hey, I've been kind of hooking
up with your explo my god. All right, all right,
(05:40):
all right, don't worry. This is gonna be easy, no drama.
We'll do it next. It's awkward.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
It's Tuesday.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
It's awkward Tuesday phone call. This is the first time
in a while that we've done roommates. When's the last
time that you did roommate?
Speaker 3 (06:00):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (06:00):
It's been a looney.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
Into their apartment.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Yeah, well not anymore. Yeah, you ruined that relationship. But
one of our listeners, Allison, needs our help today to
call her roommate and admit to her, I've kind of
been hooking up with your ex boyfriend for the last
month or so.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
Maybe let's drop that kind of Oh okay.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Yeah, I I've fully been hooking up with your boyfriend. No,
I think kind of help.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
Maybe an ll in there too.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Whatever it is, Alison needs our advice on how to
deliver the news. Jose, do you have something for her
that could help? Yeah? I was thinking this all right,
So you told us ninety nine percent you think she knows,
but I still think there's that one percent chance that
she's upset about something else. So why were you? I
would play super dumb like I would just oh, is
(06:52):
something wrong? Did you ever date anybody ever you you've had?
That's too broad, Allison? What do you think?
Speaker 4 (07:04):
I mean? I kind of like it.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Tell you, yeah, something better than that.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
Yeah, because she's gonna You're gonna get caught eventually. You
have the courage right now you tell her the truth
and then immediately you deal with the aftermath. Which is
you have to set boundaries. You have to promise her
that you will never bring the ex over to your
guys's apartment. I mean, nobody has to be the number
one rule.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Like it?
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Then you know what I mean, Like, she's gonna be upset,
but she doesn't want to see you with him.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Okay, be completely honest and then have a brutal discussion
about boundaries and your relationships.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Just set the rules that you won't bring him over.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
It'll make her feel That sounds like fun, right, Allison?
Speaker 4 (07:44):
Yeah? I mean I guess we'll just see how it goes.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Bricks advice is like just say you're gonna keep umping him.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
You're the worst listeners, I really am.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Apparently we need to have some talks about rules and
boundaries on the show, but we need to focus on
Alison right now. Okay, Sorry, Alison, I'm gonna dial your
roommate Lily's number and let you make your call.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
You ready, Yeah, okay, all right, we'll jump on.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
When we feel like you need little help. Good luck?

Speaker 2 (09:01):
Tomorrow, I'm going to be busy. I have some friends
that have come from out of town, so we'll be
hanging out pretty late.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
Oh okay, it's weird. I didn't know anything about that.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
But I don't know like saying.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
Okay, I just feel like you've been kind of weird lately,
like we're not spending any time at all together, and
I don't know, I just want to make sure everything's cool.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Yeah, I've just been I've had a lot on my mind.
I mean, life has been crazy for me right now, So.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
With me, are you okay?
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Well, I'm still processing things, but I guess if you
want to know, it's kind of about justin.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
Oh. Yeah, we've gone on.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
We've been spending time together and he's not really my
ex anymore. What are you I mean, look, no, no, no, no,
you probably think I'm stupid. I mean we've had so
many ups and downs, but he's been sweet. We've been
spending a lot of time together lately, and so for
how long? Oh it's been about two weeks now.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Oh my god, Oh I hate that guy. Yeah, let's
not let that conversation go any far.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Wait, what's going on?
Speaker 5 (10:34):
Allison?
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Who are these people?
Speaker 3 (10:39):
Just?
Speaker 4 (10:41):
Sorry?
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Too soon? Yeah, no, we're hey, Lily, you're on the
radio right now.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
I do understand. I'm sorry. I was just talking to Alison.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Yeah, we've we've kind of been listening in on your conversation.
We're Brook and Jeffrey in the morning, and this is
a segment we do called an awkward Tuesday phone call.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Allison calls us for help. We didn't just app your
phone lines or anything.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Yeah, yes, it's probably a better way of saying it.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Thanks great, I'm so confused. She didn't ask me for help.
What's going on?
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Allison was just a little bit confused about what's been
going on in your relationship, not with justin between the
two of you, because she felt like things a kind
of off whenever you've been in the apartment together.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Well, I had told her that I've just been a
little confused. You know about being back with my ex,
but I'm getting through it and it's been great.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
Why would that be uncomfortable for you to bring up
to your roommate. I mean, he's he's your ex.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
I didn't know how she feel about that because we've
broke up. She knows that we've had some rough patches together,
and Justin and I talked about it, and he just
said that it's better if we keep it a secret
between us right now.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
Wood, Oh my god, you don't even know who Justin
is at this point. Allison, you have.
Speaker 5 (11:55):
To tell her, Yeah, tell me what.
Speaker 4 (11:59):
Well, I've also been hanging out with Justin a little bit.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
I'm gonna break it today. I think we're going to
go for the max number.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
God, Lily, she didn't know how to tell you. She
didn't know how to tell you. And Alison had no
idea that you two were back together.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
No, I had no idea you guys go back together,
because like, you've been shady and not talking to me.
And do you think.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
I've been acting shady? You've been acting shady if you
are spending time with him. This is something you should
have told me, But she was.
Speaker 3 (12:33):
That's what she called us to do. She was gonna
tell you today. She's had a hard time figuring out
how to tell you that she was hooking up with
your ex.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
Maybe it would sound better if it came from Justin himself,
because we actually have Justin on the other line listening
right now. What I'm just kidding, Sorry, no suns. He
sounds like the shady one and all of this. He's
playing both.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
Of them yet both of you and trying to bring
you apart.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Alison, we literally live together. The moment you spent any
time with him, you should have told me, yeah.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
Okay, But like, I don't know, he tells a different
story about how you guys broke up and everything, and
that you weren't really dating if he never actually called
you his girlfriend's convenience.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Oh yeah, let's believe Justin and all of this. He
sounds like a real trustworthy character.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
I mean I did, and like, I don't know, Like
I guess we all need to have like a talk
about this. I don't know how that's going to work.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
There's a lot of communication that probably should have been
happening that didn't happen, And I think maybe the best
thing to do, in my opinion, is for the two
of you to get together and dump Justin at the
same time. He seems like the toxic person in this
entire relationship.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
Yeah right, yeah, yeah right. I mean, who knows how
many other roommates he's dating on the side right now?
Speaker 4 (13:54):
Too too true?
Speaker 1 (13:55):
I mean he could really have a girlfriend, because you
guys are kind of mad at each other right now,
but really, you should be directing all that anger towards
the person who caused all this, Justin. I mean, he's
the only one that knew what was really happening on
both ends.
Speaker 4 (14:06):
I mean, I don't even know if that's the case.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Really, Like what what I'll tell you this, We could
really use some more content on the show. So if
you'd like to do it on the show and do
a double breakup with Justin, I'm just throwing it out there.
Or start a three way relationship.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
Oh that is Justin's ultimate fantasy. Yeah, he honestly thinks
that all three of you are going to be in
the same apartment at some point.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
What do you guys think, Alison, Lily, This.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
Is just a lot to process right now. I mean, Justin,
we've been having a lot of fun together in the
last two weeks. I really thought we could get this
a try again, and I just really hate I hate
what I'm hearing.
Speaker 4 (14:43):
I mean, that's weird. Because I've been having a lot
of fun with him the past few weeks.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
This is obviously a lot. So we'll step back. We'll
let you guys process this, but we're going to stay
in touch in case you guys want to come back
on the show and reach out to Justin with our
because I want to be there for that conversation. Jeff Also,
it's a requirement on the show. There's two single girls
on the line that I have to be involved, So
please make sure I'm in the room too. Rebound.
Speaker 4 (15:13):
I don't know about that.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Let's find out.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
I'm ugly, all right, I know what. I hope your
breakup goes off. We have like seven sad people in
the room here. We get it.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
Hurts brooking Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
So that call happened a few weeks ago. Things were
definitely heated in the moment, but now cooler heads have prevailed.
We've been staying in contact with both Alison and Lily,
and they say neither of them has said anything to
Justin about what's going on. Yet and they're both down
to confront him on our show.
Speaker 3 (15:50):
Yeah, let's do it. We do it tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
Yeah, we're gonna do it tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
Yes we are.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
And also, if any other women out there are also
see Justin on the dyll, call in you can join in.
We might have eighteen different women all calling and yelling
at one man at the same time. That's good radio.
You're married to Justin, you may want to call in
Justin King.
Speaker 3 (16:11):
It's Justin Sucks FM. Tomorrow. There it is.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
Yeah, Justin you're going down. Be prepared. We'll do it
tomorrow on your second date. Update
