Or just use Arm and Hammer Deep Clean. It's made for real life stinks and stains. So even if you don't do laundry, the quote right way Deep Clean will knock it out. I mean it is from the number one liquid detergent brand that tackles more loads than any other. Come clean with Arm and Hammer Deep Clean Clean number one claim based on total wash loads sold.

Eczema is unpredictable, but you can flare less with Epglis, a once monthly treatment for moderate to severe eczema. After an initial four month or longer dosing phase. About four in ten people taking ECGLIS achieved itch relief and clear or almost clear skin at 16 weeks, and most of those people maintain skin that's still more clear at one year with monthly dosing.

If you didn't realize, maybe you're new to this podcast feed. Every Tuesday we actually do something a little different called our awkward Tuesday phone call.
Jeffrey
Yeah, it's way cooler than put together Friday. Yeah, we're just perfectly spot on.
Brooke
Yeah, totally. Totally. And that's anytime you have an awkward situation, you call us for help and then we just, you know, air all your dirty laundry. So you'll get to enjoy that episode in just a second. But first, comments.
Listener/Caller
Yes, C. Giordano said I literally found you guys again recently for a second time. I used to listen when I was younger, probably 15 years ago. Then I found the podcast and forgot that I remembered it and now I'm obsessed.
Brooke
Okay, well, I hope you're obsessed with this episode too.
Jeffrey
And just by chance, if you are the Giordano, the heir to the Giordano Pizza empire in Chicago, please send us some pizza.
Jason
Okay.
Brooke
Yeah, there we go.
Jeffrey
Just in case.
Brooke
All right.
Listener/Caller
You never know.
Brooke
If not, just listen, it starts now.
Host/Caller
One of the biggest milestones in every relationship is the first Major fight over something really, really dumb.
Jeffrey
Yeah, and it has to be something dumb.
Host/Caller
Like when Brooke almost left Michael all because he insisted the soy sauce had to be stored in the fridge.
Jeffrey
I could see that being an argument.
Brooke
It doesn't make sense.
Host/Caller
Then why do they leave it out
Jeffrey
at all the restaurants?
Cal Penn
Michael?
Brooke
Thank you, Jeffrey.
Host/Caller
Good point.
Brooke
Yeah, never been poisoned, ever, by soy sauce.
Host/Caller
All right, you won that Argum. Well, one of our listeners is going through something similar and she admits she may have gotten overly emotional during a text exchange with her ex boyfriend.
Jeffrey
Uh oh, the soy sauce expert here.
Host/Caller
Can we work our magic and answer the soy sauce question before things get really ugly? You're gonna find out in your brand new awkward Tuesday phone call right after this.
Jeffrey
It's awkward.
Jennifer
It's Tuesday.
Jeffrey
It's awkward Tuesday phone call.
Host/Caller
When you're in love, sometime you do crazy, irrational, emotionally charged things.
Brooke
Like have kids? Is that what you're saying? No, no.
Host/Caller
Maybe that's your life story, but later on you come to regret those things. Like for me on Valentine's Day. And I know some of you in this room have heard this before, but when I was in college, I basically destroyed my own fraternity house after I invited two women to the Valentine's Day party.
Brooke
That's right.
Host/Caller
Both said yes. And once they arrived, neither hung out with me the entire evening. So yes, the ceiling above my bed had to be kicked in. Thank you, Bacardi.
Listener/Caller
O.
Jeffrey
It's not fair.
Brooke
I'm glad I don't see angry Jeffrey,
Host/Caller
cuz that sounds like weird that's in love Jeffrey. But today, one of our listener, Jeffrey. They're dealing with a regret that was also spawned out of love. Not sure if Bacardi was involved in their misfortunes, but let's talk to Jennifer about it. Jennifer, how you doing?
Jennifer
I'm good. Hi guys.
Brooke
Just one red flag talking to another possible red flag.
Jeffrey
Even you talking about Bacardi.
Host/Caller
Like Bacardi orange flavor. I made all the good decisions back then.
Jeffrey
Even college kids wouldn't want that.
Brooke
Jennifer, please tell us that you're making smarter choices than Jeffrey.
Jennifer
Maybe.
Host/Caller
Okay, that's my girl. All right, tell us about your situation. How has love come back to bite you?
Jennifer
So I was dating a guy for four months. His name is Jason. And we met when my car got declined at a bar and he offered to pay for it.
Host/Caller
Oh, opportunist.
Brooke
That's cute.
Jennifer
Yeah, and we started hanging out and I was very clear with him that I like it when he pays attention to me. Like for example, when I Say that. I mean, like, if I'm on the couch with you, look at me, listen to me, respond to me.
Host/Caller
Well, that's three whole things that you're asking a man to do while he's sitting on a couch. So you're telling me big ask.
Listener/Caller
You just.
Brooke
You don't want your boyfriend to ignore you? Is that what you're saying? No.
Listener/Caller
Watching the movie, only look at me.
Jennifer
But also, like, don't be checking the sports scores constantly. Like, know that I'm there and be present with me as well.
Jeffrey
Be present. I kind of see that.
Jason
Okay.
Brooke
I mean, is this something like, how soon into the relationship did you lay this down there?
Jennifer
The first week.
Brooke
The first week. Okay.
Jennifer
Yeah, it was pretty clear. That's what I like, and that's how I like to be dated.
Host/Caller
You know, it's good to establish rules early on in the courtship sometimes.
Listener/Caller
And it worked for four months? Yeah.
Host/Caller
Yeah.
Brooke
So he was into it. He was fine with it.
Jennifer
I mean, he agreed because he had no other choice. But then one day kind of threw me off, and he stopped.
Brooke
Wait, wait, what happened? He stopped paying attention to you, so
Jennifer
one day he just didn't respond to me for an entire 24 hours. He didn't respond to my text. I get upset. Like, clearly he doesn't respect me enough to answer one text. I don't care how busy you are. I'll give you three hours max.
Host/Caller
Okay, so you're not even together in the same space right now. You're texting him and he's not responding right.
Brooke
Okay, are you guys in the same city or is he traveling for work?
Jennifer
No, we're in the same city. So I dumped him over text.
Brooke
Oh. Oh, that seems a little rash.
Host/Caller
Was he in a surgery or something? Like, you don't know what he was doing?
Jennifer
Well, you know, the next morning, he's like, are you joking? I was just busy. We literally talk every day. Do you want to be with me? And I was like, you didn't even respond for 24 hours. So, no, thanks.
Brooke
What?
Jeffrey
Look, okay, in the weirdest defense of my life, listen here. If you're used to texting someone every single day, morning, noon, and night, and then one day, four months later, with no explanation, that does seem out of the blue. I don't know if you break up, but that's very weird.
Brooke
But you don't even have to talk about it. You just dump them via text.
Jeffrey
I mean, it's a different story.
Brooke
Are you, like, are you regretting it now? Is that why you're Calling our show.
Jennifer
Well, you know, when I dumped him over text, it kind of got me thinking about the other stuff that annoys me. Like, he never posts on social media ever. I like. I like when guys I'm dating send me Instagram funny memes.
Listener/Caller
You don't want them on their phones. You want them looking at me the whole time.
Host/Caller
That's not true. She wants them on the phone talking to her only and not looking at anything else.
Jeffrey
Oh, I'm sorry, honey. I'm trying to post a picture of you. Get off your phone.
Brooke
Okay, so you started snowballing with all these reasons that you were right to dump him.
Jennifer
Yeah. So then I get worked up. I block him from every social media
Host/Caller
text as one does.
Brooke
Yeah, it's a reasonable thing.
Jennifer
It's been a few weeks and I regret it. And I. I realize I probably got a little overly emotional about it. Huh.
Pharmaceutical Announcer
Well, that's good.
Brooke
There's maybe some growth there. So did you reach out to him and apologize?
Jennifer
No. Well, that's why I'm asking you guys. Like, I don't know how to ask him to go back with me and give me a chance.
Jeffrey
Yeah.
Host/Caller
Oh, this is. This is the first time we're going to be reaching out to your ex boyfriend after you dumped him over text
Brooke
because he didn't respond to you in 24 hours.
Jennifer
Yeah, I mean, I overreacted. Yes. I know this now you know, and I. I regret it. And I probably should have thought about it or taken a couple deep breaths, but it really ticked me off.
Brooke
Okay.
Host/Caller
I think, honestly, a lot of what you just said right there to us would be great to put somewhere in the conversation when we reach out to him for your awkward call.
Brooke
That.
What's funny is I was thinking the opposite. I always think that all sounds like an excuse, is why it's okay that she did that. Like, that's not an apology. An apology is just I'm sorry. Like, not. But you really ticked me off.
Jeffrey
Hold on. What's our goal here? Are we spelling it out you want him back? Or are we trying to subtly convince him that he's missing out on you?
Jennifer
Whatever works. Guys, I want to date him again. So can you help me?
Host/Caller
Okay, we'll try. We're going to come back, give you a little bit of advice, whether it's a sincere apology or a subtle threat, and we'll try your awkward Tuesday phone call right after this. Hold on.
Jeffrey
It's awkward.
Listener/Caller
It's Tuesday.
Jeffrey
It's awkward Tuesday phone call.
Host/Caller
Brooke, I have a question. How hard Is it to admit when you're wrong?
Brooke
Oh, it's actually pretty easy. Yeah, I do it all the time.
Jeffrey
I've never done it. That's how she.
Brooke
Are you kidding me? I admit I'm wrong all the time.
Host/Caller
Well, we took an informal poll around the office recently and it had to be a secret poll obviously because some people here are afraid of you and quote what you might do to their careers and families.
Jeffrey
You mean everyone.
Host/Caller
But I will say your name was up there as one of the people that gets the most votes for someone who can't admit openly when they're wrong.
Brooke
But I say it all the time.
Host/Caller
Maybe that's just happening in your head. You should try it out loud every once in a while.
Brooke
Maybe your listening skills aren't very good.
Host/Caller
Spoken like a true humble person.
Jeffrey
You're constantly apologizing. It's our fault for not listening.
Host/Caller
We have a similar mindset on the phone with us right now named Jennifer, who regrets breaking up with her boyfriend because he didn't text her back one day into their four month long relationship. So Brooke, since you and her think alike, why don't you talk to her, Give her some advice on how. On what you would do in this situation.
Brooke
Everyone knows that's the type of person I am, Jennifer, and I am here for you. But I actually do have a good plan for you. Okay, Jennifer, you told us about a story when you first met where he rescued you after your credit card got declined.
Remember?
Jennifer
Yeah.
Brooke
You guys remember that? Yeah. He is the guy who wants to be the knight in shining armor. So guess what? You're another damsel in distress right now. You need to call him. You need to tell him something's broken at your house and he is the manliest man, is the only one that can fix it. And I guarantee he'll come rushing back.
Jeffrey
Actually, you're probably right.
Host/Caller
What do you think about that, Jennifer? Make up some sort of scenario he can save you from?
Brooke
Yeah. And then you're like cute and sexy when he shows up.
Jennifer
Just by chance, do you think he'll fall for it?
Brooke
Yes.
Jeffrey
Yeah, we're guys, we're dumb.
Brooke
Yeah, it could be like, I don't know how handy he is, maybe like a broken outlet or a.
Jennifer
Well, if the guy just saying yes, then I'll try it.
Host/Caller
Okay, one of the guys is saying yes. It could be worth a shot though.
Jeffrey
That's true.
Host/Caller
Jose, what's your advice for Jennifer?
Jeffrey
Well, you seem like a very passionate person, like very intense person, which isn't a bad thing. But Sometimes intense people can be more, you know, ranty. So I think you just need to convince him that you were ranting. When you sent that breakup text, you didn't really mean it. You weren't serious. You were just mad.
Brooke
I think that's gaslighting. Yeah, that's like the definition of gaslighting.
Jeffrey
Whatever works to get him back. That's her mission, is to get him back. And I think that'll work.
Host/Caller
Okay, A little bit of make yourself a damsel in distress. A little bit of gaslight him for causing all of your problems.
Jeffrey
Look, we've been dating for four months. You just don't know how I am.
Brooke
Yeah, it's your fault. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Jeffrey
Girls, me feel.
Host/Caller
How does that sound? Jennifer, you feel ready now to make this call?
Jennifer
I think so.
Host/Caller
Good. And if anything doesn't go according to our plan, Brooke is more than willing to admit that she is wrong. She has said it out loud.
Listener/Caller
You're right.
Brooke
I could see nothing going wrong with this at all.
Host/Caller
Exactly.
Brooke
I feel like he's gonna be so open to dating again.
Host/Caller
We are ready. Here we go. I'm dialing your ex boyfriend Jason right now. We'll step in if we feel like you need a little help. Here we go.
Jason
Hello?
Jennifer
Hey, you. How's it going?
Jason
This is awkward. What's going on? Why are you calling?
Jennifer
I just. How have you been?
Jason
Fine. How about you? Good.
Jennifer
I actually went to the bar where we first met and I just thought of you.
Jason
Okay.
Jennifer
How's work going?
Jason
Yeah, no, it's been good. But can I. Can I help you with something or. Why are you calling?
Jennifer
Well, you probably want to say something to me, so. I'm ready when you are.
Jason
You're calling me and you want me to say something like I'm confused?
Jennifer
Yeah. Okay, fine. I'll go first. I just hate how everything went down with us. I mean, we definitely should have talked on the phone. And I also went a little crazy and, like, may have overreacted a little, but.
Jason
A little.
Jennifer
A little? Yes, a little. But I'm.
Jason
I wouldn't use that word to describe it, but.
Jennifer
But I'm willing to forgive you for what you did.
Jason
You're willing to forgive me? Are you serious? Like, you're calling me out of the blue, asking me to apologize to you when you're the one who just, like, went bat crazy? Pretty much.
Jennifer
Jason, I think you're interrupting me. I really hope you're not. I just wanted to give you a fair chance to apologize.
Jason
Unfortunately, I'm sorry, but you're not going to get an apology from me because you are the one who put us in this predicament. So. Yeah, I'm not really sure what you're expecting from me.
Jennifer
Let me just make it really easy for you. Like, I. What you need to do is just apologize to me because, you know, and say sorry. Jennifer, you know, I know you wanted to see me, and I know that a day shouldn't go live. Don't text me back.
Jason
Thank you for making it so easy for me. You really, really just made my day here.
Jennifer
Okay, I get this is hard for you maybe, and you're adding sarcasm on top of that, but just. I'll help you start it off. I'm very, very sorry for not responding to you and making you feel neglected. I'll. You know, I'll make it up to you. I'll even let you get my groceries or buy me dinner or pay me rent, like, whatever gesture you want to show, you know?
Jason
Are you actually being serious right now? Like, I.
Jennifer
Yes, I am. And also, I actually have something that's broken at my house. I was hoping you can fix it. It's an outlet fuck.
Jeffrey
Word. I've never heard the word outlet say sell sex alone.
Host/Caller
Oh, my God.
Jason
What the hell is actually going on?
Jennifer
Like, oh, my God.
Brooke
That's incredible.
Jason
Who are all these people on the phone?
Host/Caller
Yeah, Jason, we're a radio show called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning.
Brooke
Oh, I'm so uncomfortable right now.
Jason
You brought me on the radio?
Host/Caller
Yeah, we're doing something called an awkward Tuesday phone call. Trying to help out our friend Jennifer here with an issue. And I will say, just to take her side, I didn't hear any apology whatsoever. She gave you a lot of chances there.
Brooke
Jeff is being sarcastic.
Jason
Well, I'm actually. I'm very thankful that you guys just witnessed that because this has been my life. Isn't this ridiculous?
Brooke
What is happening?
Jason
You actually believe this is real?
Brooke
Jennifer, you told us that you wanted to, like, see him again because you were sorry. Remember you.
Jennifer
But he needs to apologize.
Host/Caller
Yeah, Everybody knows a sincere apology is always better when you force somebody to give it to you. Makes total sense.
Brooke
That's right, Jeff. That is right.
Host/Caller
Either way, however you want to look at this, there were some hurt feelings on both sides. And I think what would really help is to get an apology out there from both of you at the same time. So I'll count to three and you guys can both say I'm sorry to each other. Ready? One, two, three.
Jennifer
I'm sorry. You didn't text Me back.
Host/Caller
Jason still saying awkwardly silent over there?
Brooke
Yeah, I think Jason's made up his mind, Jeffrey. I don't think he's gonna go over and fix the outlet.
Host/Caller
No, he wants to go over and give her an in person apology. Because an in phone apology wasn't enough? Is that what you're thinking, Jason?
Jason
You hit it right on the head.
Host/Caller
Yeah, see, I just know these things.
Brooke
He finally gets you.
Host/Caller
Yeah, he does.
Brooke
He finally heard you right.
Jason
And you know what, Jennifer? I've actually moved on and I have a date tonight. So I just don't know, like, there's really no purpose in these kind of calls moving forward. Just.
Host/Caller
Oh, okay.
Jason
You go your way, I go mine.
Jennifer
Well, good luck. I'm sure she likes to be texted back as well.
Brooke
I don't. I don't think that she'll probably throw a fit about.
Host/Caller
I don't think you're reading in between the lines. What he's saying is he wants you to show up to the date. Can you do that, Jennifer?
Jennifer
Text me a time and place. Jason.
Jason
Wow, you really are crazy and fun.
Host/Caller
Oh my God, man, talk about being nervous for your first date. Not because you want to impress the new girl, because Jennifer might show up out of nowhere dressed up as one of the waiters.
Brooke
Don't even say that. And put that in her.
Host/Caller
No, it just means that she loves him.
Brooke
No, it does not. It means that somebody needs a restraining order either way.
Jennifer
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

And there is just a lot to cover right now because I mean we were shocked. Yeah, we didn't expect her to come off like that. No, no. You know I thought she was going to be the one apologizing. Was I?

Theme: Can you successfully un-dump an ex after a rash breakup? The team helps a caller try to reconcile with an ex-boyfriend she impulsively broke up with over text.
This “Awkward Tuesday” episode focuses on Jennifer, a listener who dumped her boyfriend Jason—over text—after he didn’t respond to her messages for 24 hours. Now, weeks later, she regrets her emotional reaction and asks Brooke, Jeffrey, and the team for help making an “awkward” call to win him back. The hosts weigh in with playful banter, advice that ranges from heartfelt to spoofing, and ultimately stage the call live, with unexpected and cringeworthy results.
Relationship Milestones: The hosts joke about how all couples eventually have big fights about silly things, like how to store soy sauce.
Jennifer’s Predicament: Jennifer explains her dating style—she likes consistent attention and set this expectation very early in her four-month relationship with Jason.
Notable Quote (07:10):
Jennifer: "If I’m on the couch with you, look at me, listen to me, respond to me."
She admits to dumping Jason after he didn’t reply to her text for a full day, feeling disrespected by the lack of a response.
Brooke’s Advice: Use damsel-in-distress tactics; suggest Jennifer ask for help with a broken item at home to appeal to his “knight in shining armor” instincts.
Brooke: “You’re another damsel in distress right now. Tell him something’s broken … and he’ll come rushing back.” (13:15)
Jeffrey’s Counter: Suggests excusing her breakup as a rant or moment of passion, essentially downplaying her culpability—a move Brooke calls out as gaslighting.
The hosts muse over whether a sincere apology or playful manipulation will get better results.
The show dials up Jason live. Jennifer awkwardly tries to revive the relationship, alternating between suggesting he owes her an apology and hinting she’s willing to “forgive” him.
Memorable Exchanges:
Jennifer: “I just hate how everything went down with us. I also went a little crazy …” (15:48)
Jason: “I wouldn’t use that word to describe it …” (16:06)
Jennifer: “But I’m willing to forgive you for what you did.” (16:09)
Jason: “You’re calling me out of the blue, asking me to apologize to you when you just went bat crazy?” (16:12)
Jennifer, not accepting the clear lack of interest, insists Jason apologize, offers to help him “start” the apology, and even tries the ‘broken outlet’ ploy as Brooke suggested: Jennifer: “Actually, I have something that’s broken at my house … it’s an outlet …” (17:32)
The Reveal: Jason realizes what’s happening and is told he’s live on the radio. He reacts with disbelief but resignation.
Jason: “You really, really just made my day here.” (16:58)
Final Stand: Hosts attempt to facilitate a “mutual apology.” Jennifer apologizes, but only for Jason not texting her back; Jason remains silent.
Jason reveals he’s moved on, has a date lined up, and wants no further contact.
Notable Quote:
Jason: “You go your way, I go mine.” (19:30)
Jennifer’s parting shot is sardonic:
Jennifer: “Well, good luck. I’m sure she likes to be texted back as well.” (19:31)
The hosts quip about Jennifer possibly ambushing the upcoming date, but emphasize the thin line between “persistence” and “restraining order” territory.

Jennifer’s stubbornness and the hosts' tongue-in-cheek advice anchor the show’s comedic (and relatable) exploration of dating mistakes.
