[42:11–71:16]

Initial Story [42:11–55:55]

• Hosts' Take:
  • Empathy for OP’s sense of betrayal, compounded by her husband not telling her sooner.
  • Speculation: Is Tori hiding something? Could it be about her work persona, or is there a deeper secret?
  • Tommy and Mac joke about wild hypotheticals ("are the husbands sleeping together?"), poking fun at the layers of drama.

First Update [55:56–64:32]

• The Truth:
  • Tori was having an affair with a coworker, was hiding it from both OP and her own husband, and didn’t want OP at her workplace to reveal the affair.
  • Tori apologizes; OP ends the friendship and tells Tori to come clean to her husband.
  • Tori’s marriage dissolves; she moves in with her coworker (who doesn’t know he’s been part of an affair!).
  • Hosts praise OP for ending the friendship and for orchestrating the confrontation in a public restaurant (“Thank you for bringing your mess to a public place for us to hear.” [62:08])
• Commentary:
  • Mess only grows when secrets and lies pile up.
  • "Audacity only grows." [63:01]
  • Three layers of betrayal: job, friendship, marital.
  • “We had our own Judy Justice tonight.” [71:09]

Twist—Tori Responds on Reddit [65:13–69:10]

• Tori’s View:
  • OP was never invited to apply—she pushed herself into Tori’s work drama.
  • Claims OP is lazy, the husbands knew about the separation, and the supposed "affair" was with someone fully aware and not a secret.
  • Tori calls out OP’s entire version as a warped narrative for karma.
• Hosts' Reaction:
  • DELIGHTED at the twist: "That was just so fun, was it not?" [68:45]
  • Tommy: "I bet OP is the problem. An unreliable narrator." [67:57]
  • Speculation on who the “real” villain is as the narrative flips.

[Shane]

Hello and welcome to Smosh Reads Reddit Stories. I'm Shane, and today's theme is messy stories. And I'm joined by two messy people.

[Mac]

Oh.

[Tommy]

Oh, okay.

[Mac]

Wow.

[Tommy]

All right.

[Shane]

So look, it was either I go with messy or not messy. And I thought it was more interesting to go with messy. I'm here with Tommy and Mac does it.

[Tommy]

Yes, Mac is back.

[Shane]

So, you know, it's a good episode.

[Mac]

That's right. Awesome.

[Tommy]

Yeah. And don't forget our third guest of the day. Yeah, the verse pillow. Verse pillow, Verse pillow, both ways. Okay. There might be three of them on the couch right now.

[Shane]

Okay, so we got some messy stories today, right? I think we all love messy stories.

[Tommy]

Oh, yeah, I live for it.

[Shane]

It's fun. We're all reality TV fans here.

[Tommy]

Absolutely.

[Mac]

Yes. Of course.

[Tommy]

It all changes once I'm involved, then I hate it. Messy stuff.

[Shane]

True, true. You don't want to be involved. You just want to observe.

[Tommy]

I want to observe it.

[Mac]

Observe the mess.

[Tommy]

Yeah, with a commercial break here and there.

[Shane]

Right. I don't like when my friends are involved with messy stuff either, but if I'm, like, at a restaurant or a coffee shop and I overhear a messy situation happening and isn't that delightful? I'm gonna tune in.

[Tommy]

You know, sometimes I like to, like, pay back society by taking my mess to a restaurant.

[Shane]

Oh, that's very kind of something that

[Tommy]

someone else can enjoy.

[Shane]

That's very kind of you.

[Tommy]

Yeah, yeah. You know, they'll always break up in a public setting or have an argument in a public setting. You know, do they say that?

[Mac]

Don't they say that, like, outside?

[Shane]

Yeah, they're like. People like me are putting that narrative out there.

[Tommy]

So listen to em and you're welcome.

[Mac]

Yeah.

[Shane]

Like, make sure you guys break up in public and let me know where you're gonna be at. Yeah.

[Tommy]

So you're welcome.

[Shane]

Well, thank you for doing that.

[Tommy]

You're welcome.

[Shane]

Thank you for your service.

[Tommy]

Anytime,

[Shane]

Mac. This is your first time hearing our new set?

[Mac]

Yes. First time on Reddit stories. In a second.

[Shane]

I know a bit.

[Mac]

Get ready, world. Here comes some very bad opinions.

[Tommy]

No, no, because if you have bad opinions, you'll get killed.

[Shane]

I'll kill you. All right, let's hop in. Here we go. Our first story comes from the 2hot takes subreddit.

[Tommy]

We love them.

[Shane]

We love them, Morgan. Just the best, too. Hot Takes. This was posted November of 2025. My ex posted a happy anniversary with me six months after we broke up. Oh, nice. Okay, so my ex and I broke up in April. It wasn't messy, but it wasn't exactly peaceful either. He wanted to focus on himself, which was code for flirting with girls on discord. Anyway, fast forward to now November. Yeah, we've all been.

[Mac]

We've all done that.

[Shane]

Anyway, fast forward to now November, and one of my friends sends me a screenshot from his Insta story. Like, happy three years. Love you forever. Pink heart with little pink heart next to it.

[Tommy]

Yep.

[Shane]

With a picture of us from 2022. I actually thought it was a throwback or something, but no, he literally captioned it like, we're still together. We haven't spoken since the breakup. I'm not blocked or anything, just ignored. So I'm now sitting here getting texts from mutual friends asking if we got back together, and I'm like, what alternate reality is this man living in? I don't know if it's to make me look like I still care or to make him look like he's the loyal one who never moved on, but either way, it's weird. Like, dude, we broke up half a year ago. You can't just retroactively celebrate an anniversary that doesn't exist. Part of me wants to respond with Happy Delusion Day, but I'm being good.

[Mac]

Respond with Happy Delusion Day.

[Tommy]

Respond with Happy Delusion Day.

[Shane]

You have to respond with something. I guess it's on an Insta story, so you can't respond publicly.

[Tommy]

You can now.

[Shane]

Have you seen Comment?

[Mac]

You can comment on Instastor.

[Tommy]

You can comment on Instastories. It pops up at the bottom, the little bottom. Uh oh. Emily just realized she made a mistake. I'm just saying weird shit you're going through.

[Shane]

Like this watch cast. You just see Emily just be like, fuck you, loser. It's like, aw, everyone's gonna find out.

[Tommy]

Emily thought Instagram was anonymous. It's crazy. Dang it. That's wild. Is he from the Berenstain Bears multiverse?

[Shane]

Oh, yeah. The Mandela effect.

[Tommy]

Yeah. Maybe he's an og. Mandela.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Mac]

True.

[Tommy]

You know? Oh, true.

[Mac]

I feel like a minimal amount of amnesia happened. Maybe he got hit by a train.

[Tommy]

Okay. A train.

[Shane]

And just got minimal amnesia for that.

[Mac]

Yeah, that's the thing. That's the same thing.

[Shane]

I believe in minimal amnesia.

[Tommy]

You've been diagnosed with minimal amnesia.

[Shane]

Yeah, I believe in that. I don't believe in surviving. Getting hit by a train, I think, is what I'm being skeptical.

[Mac]

Ken.

[Tommy]

If you position your brain just right,

[Shane]

just get hit a little bit.

[Tommy]

A little bit. Tiny bit.

[Shane]

Just a tiny bit.

[Tommy]

Just a little minimal. Just a little minimal.

[Shane]

I wanted to say, what would you do in this situation? But this is a hard situation to fathom.

[Tommy]

I think I'd show up on the doorstep with some flowers and be like, what the fuck are you doing? Be like, happy anniversary. What are you doing? Yeah, what's the point? You know, like, play along, but then pivot.

[Shane]

Six months is a long time to wait to then do some shit like this.

[Mac]

That is crazy.

[Shane]

I feel like you should be fully moved on by six months.

[Tommy]

Right.

[Shane]

I guess the ex maybe hasn't told people, so they're trying to keep a ruse going.

[Mac]

But it's six months.

[Tommy]

It's six months and one of these Discord girls are gonna be flying.

[Mac]

Very confused. Yeah, very confused. Discord girl.

[Shane]

Yeah, they're all confused.

[Mac]

Flirting with girls on Discord.

[Tommy]

Discord, the place to flirt with girls on Hello, Kitten.

[Shane]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Tommy]

That's why I don't not.

[Mac]

Hello, Kitten.

[Shane]

That's what you're doing on Discord.

[Mac]

Hello, my name.

[Shane]

I don't use disc. I don't use Discord. But I've heard that's how you have to use it. Some comments, someone said, not gonna lie. That is fucking weird. 3.6 thousand upvotes, someone said, I'm pretty sure his parents have no idea he broke up with you.

[Tommy]

Mm.

[Shane]

Parents could be a thing. Someone said, Yep. I'd put money on it. I once had an ex who lied to his family for a year after we split. I found out about a year after when his sister messaged me and asked when I would be coming to visit again. He was furious when he found out that I told her we broke up. He just sent me a message a few days ago. We broke up over a decade ago, and I'm happily married and he's still trying Some people are insane. Oh, whoa, whoa. A decade and you're like, no, we're still together.

[Mac]

That's just the power of love.

[Tommy]

Yeah.

[Mac]

Versatile.

[Tommy]

Pillow and your thoughts. Yeah. Verse pillow and your thoughts. I think he's fucking crazy.

[Mac]

Oh, my God.

[Tommy]

Oh, be careful. Hey, have a tamer take.

[Shane]

Yeah. Chill out. I'll kill you.

[Tommy]

I'll kill you.

[Shane]

I guess denial can be just very powerful. Maybe they just refuse to acknowledge something someone said. Have that friend comment on it for you. Dude, why are you posting this? You cheated on girlfriend and dumped her six months ago to be with other girls. Someone said exactly this. Don't acknowledge it, op, but get your friend to lol. Yeah, yeah.

[Tommy]

I'm also like, why even bother? Yeah, why even.

[Shane]

Right?

[Tommy]

You know, I guess if it's your likeness and it's like your.

[Shane]

Yeah, I don't know. I would be uncomfortable with it. Like, Cause you don't want people to like. Cause her. Her friends think that she's now with him, right?

[Tommy]

No, that's true.

[Shane]

She's getting. They're like, oh, are you with him? It's definitely a lot.

[Mac]

Make an announcement on your story. Be like, we are not together.

[Shane]

Yeah, right. Happy breakup anniversary. Six months. Broke up six months ago. Lastly, someone said, nah, be bad. Post a pic of yourself saying, happy six months. Being single, the weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

[Tommy]

Pretty good.

[Shane]

Pretty good.

[Tommy]

Yeah, pretty good. Little pink heart emoji with a little pink card next to it.

[Shane]

Pretty like, you know, mildly messy.

[Tommy]

Yeah. Is there enough to eat?

[Shane]

No.

[Mac]

No.

[Tommy]

Oh.

[Mac]

Oh, he died.

[Tommy]

No,

[Shane]

She killed him.

[Tommy]

Yay.

[Shane]

Our next story. This episode of Reddit Stories is sponsored by zocdoc. Zocdoc is a free app and website that helps you find and book high quality in network doctors so you can find someone you love. Normally, this is where I share my experience with ZocDoc. But today I wanted to share a special Reddit story that was shared with me and the team. Smosh. Zocdoc ads kind of saved me. In parenthesis, they say, thanks, Shane. To summarize, OP found out that they had a potentially cancerous tumor. And to quote op, I needed to see my primary care doctor immediately. I didn't have a primary care doctor. I didn't even know who to go to with my insurance. I remembered Shane Topp talking about Zocdoc and how easy it is to find doctors and book appointments. I got into ZocDoc and booked an appointment for the next day with a doctor in my network. And later, OP shares because I was able to see a primary care doctor so quickly I was able to get the treatment I needed without delay. OP goes on to say my best friend and I named the tumor that tried to kill me Balthazar. Balthazar is dead. As of June 2025, I am in remission and as of early August 2025, I am done with treatment. First and foremost, we are so happy to hear that Balthazar is dead and that OP is doing well. We really appreciate OP for sharing this story with us, but this serves as a great reminder to stop putting off those doctor's appointments and go to zocdoc.com PittReddit and find and instantly book a doctor you love today. That's Zocdoc.com PittReddit Zocdoc.com PittReddit Thanks Zocdoc for sponsoring this message. Back to the show. This next story comes from Am I the Asshole? It was posted in February this year.

[Liberty Mutual Spokesperson]

And Doug, there's nowhere I wouldn't go to help someone customize and save on car insurance with Liberty Mutual. Even if it means sitting front row at a comedy show.

[Shane]

Hey, everyone, check out this guy and his bird. What is this, your first date? Oh, no.

[Liberty Mutual Spokesperson]

We help people customize and save on car insurance with Liberty Mutual together. We're married.

[Shane]

Me to a human, him to a bird. Yeah, the bird looks out of your league.

[Liberty Mutual Spokesperson]

Anyways, get a [e-mail] or with your local agent.

[Shane]

Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty.

[Mac]

I drive my bus in a busy city. That's why road safety is so important to me. I know that I must slow down and be extra careful when I make a wide turn. Buses need more room than cars. Everyone can help keep our roads safe. Next time you're driving, remember to give buses plenty of time and space to finish turning before driving ahead. Let's all plan to share the road safely. Learn how at www.sharetheroadsafely.gov would I be

[Shane]

the asshole for suing my friend when she didn't come to my wedding? Oh. Ooh.

[Tommy]

So that sounds wild, first of all, but also. But I am living for that idea.

[Shane]

I'm taking you to court.

[Tommy]

I'm taking you to court because you didn't see me in my beautiful dress.

[Mac]

Like I want to see that at Judge Judy.

[Shane]

Oh, Judy. Judy justice would eat that.

[Tommy]

Judy justice, by the way.

[Mac]

Oh, Judy Justice.

[Tommy]

Judy Justice.

[Mac]

Oh, yeah, new channel.

[Tommy]

She has a new face, a giant ass, and a new name. Has anyone seen Judy Justices?

[Shane]

Tommy brought this up. Tommy, you brought this up to a whole meeting room of us we were all writing and you were like, by the way, I don't know if you guys know this. And so we googled it and it's big. And it frankly shocked us all.

[Tommy]

I don't know why Judy, but she's truly like. And it's like, Is it the picture

[IQ Bar Spokesperson]

of her in the black jumpsuit?

[Tommy]

Yes, yes, I know. I don't know if it's like drag queen chatting or what, but I don't know what's up with Judy. Justice.

[Mac]

Mommy be squatting.

[Tommy]

Maybe Mommy be squatting. Oh, maybe she's behind the thing, going like this the entire time.

[Shane]

She's like, no, that's from upholding justice.

[Tommy]

That's from upholding justice.

[Shane]

Here we go. I, a 25 year old woman, recently got married to my 25 year old husband in Bali, Indonesia in January. It was a destination wedding, but my parents and his parents paid for their own plane tickets and hotel. But we paid for our friends plane tickets and hotel stays. Each plane ticket was about $2,000 USD and the hotel was maybe about 5, 150 to $300 for a week. My friend Gemma brought along her newlywed husband John along, but paid for his plane ticket. The problem is that Gemma and John did not show up to my wedding. Gemma took the free plane ticket to Bali and the hotel room. And when I asked her why she didn't show up, she said that since they couldn't afford their own honeymoon, that this was a perfect opportunity and that Jim decided that he didn't feel like going. I was really hurt by this. Since Gemma and I have been friends for over 10 years, would I be the asshole if I took her to small claims court for the money I spent on the plane ticket and hotel?

[Mac]

Okay.

[Shane]

Oh my God.

[Mac]

Different perspective now.

[Shane]

Also, let me be clear. Earlier on she says my friend Gemma brought along her newlywed husband in quotations John. Later, she called him Jim.

[Tommy]

She.

[Shane]

Come on, you wrote two paragraphs. You can keep it consistent. Uh, no.

[Tommy]

That's so funny.

[Shane]

They're like, sorry, this is.

[Tommy]

Wait a second. This place is really fun. Like, let's go.

[Shane]

They are pieces of shit, but kind of hilarious.

[Tommy]

This is hilarious. This is hilarious.

[Mac]

This is a quite iconic, selfish move to make.

[Shane]

I would say, yeah, to go to Indonesia for a wedding and then be like, let's not go to the wedding, right? And just vibe around and continue to go back to the hotel.

[Tommy]

Right?

[Shane]

They're there for the week, they're seeing each other, Right.

[Tommy]

They're definitely fucking over the person getting married here. The Op here.

[Shane]

Oh, yes, they stole money.

[Tommy]

It's just things like this. And I think this is also why I like Abby Lee Miller, or I enjoy watching her, is because as someone who's conscious of what people think and their emotions and how they are and treating people like human beings, when someone's just like, you know what? I'm going on vacation. I'm like, I wish I could. I just want, like a droplet of that extract to just have a little more self confidence in my life, you know?

[Shane]

You know what it is that I see is that when I watch, like when I watch people who are really good at dancing, like you watch really incredible ballet and you go, how does a person do that? That's amazing. And then when people do things this selfish and this same thing, frankly this insane, I do have a similar reaction

[Tommy]

where I go, how do you do that? It's so alien to who I am. It's just like, oh, my God.

[Shane]

I think people sometimes think, like, my fascination with people who are just outrageous assholes is that I'm actually supporting them. And I'm like, oh, no.

[Tommy]

And I'm not.

[Shane]

I'm like, it's the polar opposite. My body's like, I don't comprehend what I'm seeing.

[Mac]

Right.

[Shane]

In a way that almost dazzles me 100%.

[Tommy]

Like, what recipe of events created this person who's like, I don't give a fuck. They flew me out for free. I'm gonna. And then we'd be like, who's doing that? That's unbelievable.

[Shane]

Cause, you know she's gonna take them to small claims court and they're gonna fight it 100%. They're gonna go, no. I had every right to do this.

[Mac]

Like, you, Honor, I just didn't feel the right vibe.

[Tommy]

Yeah, vibes were really low key.

[Mac]

Vibes were weird. And so I just like.

[Tommy]

And she's like, no, give her the money back. She's holding a ball, by the way. It's a squat. Judy Justice. That's a Judy justice callback.

[Shane]

Yeah. Okay. The verdict is not the asshole.

[Mac]

No, of course not.

[Tommy]

Although the pain of going through small claims court is its own thing.

[Shane]

Sucks.

[Tommy]

But she has rights to do it.

[Shane]

She has every right to do it. I mean, small claims. I don't know how small claims court works. I very fortunately have not had to go to small claims court.

[Tommy]

Same.

[Shane]

But I feel like it can.

[Mac]

Oh, let me tell. I'm joking now. The amount of time I have a punch card.

[Shane]

No, but this is over $2,500 just about. Which is a lot of money.

[Tommy]

That's a lot. That's a lot of money.

[Shane]

That's a lot of money. So it's worth it. If it's worth it to her for the time, then.

[Tommy]

And you know, what we haven't even talked about is that it's her wedding. And as we know, the rule goes, you don't fuck with someone's wedding.

[Shane]

But people love to fuck with people's weddings.

[Tommy]

I love to fuck with people's weddings. This means the whole wedding, she's going, is Julie fucking out there having a margarita and not here at my wedding? Like, it's all about Julie not being there. I'm making up a name. I don't know.

[Mac]

This feels like some Lotus storyline, literally.

[Shane]

Really does. Yeah. Really does.

[Tommy]

Okay, Mike White. Op is. Op is Mike White.

[Mac]

Is he watching?

[Shane]

You know what's stupid, too, is that there was a way that they could have done this if they had said, hey, you're buying us the plane tickets, all this stuff. Can you. Can we book a flight? It's the same price, probably. Can I book a flight two or three days later?

[Tommy]

Right?

[Shane]

And then you just pay for the hotel. The hotel is $150 to $300 for a week. Pay for a couple more days, that feels like a wait. You could have. You could have just bargained this.

[Tommy]

You could have done the wedding and the honeymoon.

[Shane]

Also like a wedding. Indonesia is probably. She's already spending this much money for this destination. The wedding's probably badass. You're missing out on a party as well. Like, this was just. It's what I. I always think about this. I'm like, if you're gonna be an asshole, be smart.

[Tommy]

Be smart about it.

[Shane]

Be a good scammer. But you're a. You didn't have to be an asshole here. Yeah, no, you could have got. You could have had the world. Dumbasses.

[Tommy]

Dumbasses.

[Shane]

This is dumb asshole, dumb asshole comments. Can't believe I'm saying this, but not the asshole. Someone offers to give you a free vacation on the condition that you attend one party during that time. I'd be jumping for that opportunity to take that free vacation. And then no call, no show to your friend's wedding is really shitty behavior on their part. They could have extended their stay if they wanted to treat the trip as their own honeymoon. 34,000 upvotes. OP said literally, she wasn't even in the wedding party. All she had to do was show up, dance, and eat cake and food. Funny thing. Enough Is that they did go on a honeymoon. It just wasn't abroad. Oh, my God.

[Tommy]

So wait, it was an at home honeymoon.

[Shane]

Damn. OP is loaded if they're paying for people's flights that aren't in the wedding.

[Mac]

Yeah, that's gonna be.

[Shane]

Holy shit, man. She's being taken to small claims court by her rich friend. She's probably screwed.

[Tommy]

She's fucked, dude.

[Mac]

She has time and resources, a line of lawyers.

[Shane]

Someone said, you are not an asshole. Your friend is the asshole here. But I can't see you winning any sort of claim legally. You gifted her a plane ticket. There was no contract. She had to come to the wedding. Someone responded. Judges are capable of finding an assumed condition with a gift. The classic example is engagement rings typically get returned to the man if their fiance calls off the wedding. Oh. Oh, okay. Lastly, someone said, $2,300 is a lot of money. But at least you know, now that Gemma and John are a pair of asses, I just remove all connection with them and cherish the thought that they didn't ruin anything else. Someone responded, before cutting ties with them, OP needs to ask for her money back. It is such an abuse of the friendship to take $2,000 and then not even bother to show up for the wedding. OP needs to tell her friend that the ticket that she provided was not intended for a vacation. Not the asshole. This seems to be one of those cases, sadly, where this person, Gemma, was just never her friend. Probably.

[Tommy]

Yeah.

[Shane]

Just an absolute leech the whole time. Yeah.

[Tommy]

Also, like, if she's not in the bridal party, usually that means you're not as tight with the person.

[Shane]

Yeah, usually.

[Tommy]

I mean, you can still be very tight. I mean, I was. I went to my friend's wedding and I wasn't in the party, but it's like she's like my sister, so it's like. Yeah, I don't know. Just kind of just. Yeah, I should have married her, so. Yeah. I mean, like, maybe. Yeah, she isn't. I don't know what I'm saying anymore. Maybe she isn't good friends with this person. I don't know. Either way. Not anymore. No more friends.

[Shane]

No. Definitely not now. They said they've been friends for over

[Tommy]

10 years, but I'm like, what kind of friend? Like, me and that girl over there. It's like I've known him for 10 years, but we don't talk.

[Shane]

I can't imagine. I couldn't do this to my enemy, though. No, it's like. It's like I'm like Oh, if I'm not good enough friends, I'm not going to go. I'm going to say no to it, but I can't. I would. I am such a guilty feeling person.

[Tommy]

Sure.

[Shane]

That I fly abroad for free. I'm going to that wedding for sure. I want to. I'm like, can I help?

[Tommy]

Right.

[Shane]

What can I do?

[Mac]

Right.

[Shane]

Shit. You're in this situation. Do you go to small claims court? How do you get the money back?

[Tommy]

Do you want me to go first?

[Mac]

So I'm going to court. I'm going to.

[Shane]

No, you don't have to. What would you do?

[Tommy]

That's an option.

[Mac]

What would I do? I wouldn't do anything, really. I let it go.

[Shane]

Damn.

[Mac]

I just never talk to them again, you know?

[Tommy]

Yeah. I think if you're flying a bunch of people out with $2,000 plane tickets already and you're having a destination Indonesia big party wedding, do you really need that $2,000 back?

[Shane]

Right. If we're talking about relative scale of scale of things. Right. Cause $2,300 is a lot for us. I'm sure for a lot of people watching, they're like, holy shit, that's so much money.

[Tommy]

And that's what I'm talking about.

[Shane]

But if you're having a wedding like that. Right.

[Tommy]

But I just think about the court of it all, and it's like the amount of time you have to take off work and hire a lawyer and all the paperwork. I'm just like, the effort of all of that is just to go, give me my 2000, and then you have to pay 10 grand to your lawyer.

[Shane]

And I should be clear, stealing or abusing $2,300 is still a problem. Absurd.

[Tommy]

I'm just talking about relativity.

[Shane]

We're talking about how the American court system is a nightmare.

[Tommy]

Yes.

[Shane]

And to get involved in it at all is potentially a lot of your time and probably more money.

[Tommy]

Right.

[Shane]

And are you going to end up now? I don't know. Like I said, I don't know much about small claims court, but it's just like, are you going to end up spending more money than getting back? How much are you going to actually get back? Like, you're going to lose a lot of time on this.

[Tommy]

Right.

[Shane]

Is this person worth not only robbing you from your wedding, but now it almost kind of like, does it make the narrative of your wedding about them more than it really should?

[Tommy]

Right.

[Shane]

Is kind of where I'd. This is where I would personally be at same.

[Tommy]

That's where I just like, now It's a whole thing, a part of your life. Also, Just like, a little caveat of that. It's like, if we get scammed out of $2,300, we face the exact same thing where it's like, okay, so I'm gonna have to go to claims court for this. And, well, I also have to pay. So that's why I'm like, well, this person clearly has a little bit more going on than the people in this room. So I'm like, maybe this could be something she could let go.

[Shane]

Maybe. Maybe.

[Tommy]

But still hate that person.

[Shane]

If I was their friend and they're like, I'm taking them to a small claims court, I'd be like, that's fantastic. Can I watch?

[Tommy]

Oh, 100%.

[Shane]

I wanna be like, I need to be there.

[Tommy]

Oh, my God. Yeah.

[Shane]

I'd be like, that's gonna take up so much of your time. That's gonna be a lot. And then I'd be like, I'm gonna go. And I'd be like, all right, when is it? Because I want it to. I'm gonna go watch.

[Tommy]

I'm gonna sit there with one of those veils in the back.

[Shane]

They're like, was he involved?

[Mac]

I wanna be the one that's constantly gasping, like, what? In the back.

[Tommy]

Get him.

[Shane]

All right. Update.

[Tommy]

Yes.

[Shane]

Do they go to Judy Justice?

[Mac]

Judy Justice.

[Shane]

Update. I messaged Gemma per multiple comments advising me to invoice her for the plane ticket and hotel room. But I did something a little better. I wanted to get proof, so if I had to go to court, it would be easier to win. I messaged her this. Hey, sorry for being so distant, but I just wanted to talk to you about Bali. I'm hurt that you didn't show up to the ceremony. I pulled a lot of strings to ensure that you could come, and then you didn't show up. Did you think I paid for the trip just so you could honeymoon with John? She replied, I've missed you a lot, and I know the trip was for your wedding. But John didn't want to go because he felt like your wedding ruined the illusion of the trip being our honeymoon and that you'd understand. Gemma, you fool. You fell right into the trap. Judy's gonna read that. I replied. I replied, no, I don't understand. You took advantage of me. And that's not what real friends do. So I'm invoicing you. $2,387.53 for the cost of the plane ticket and hotel room. I will give you 30 days and after that, I will be taking legal action. I received no response, but she's been posting subliminal quotes on Instagram that are along the lines of entitled friends and having snakes in your life. Thank you all for your verdicts and help, man. It's always the people who scam their friends who call people snakes.

[Tommy]

And you know what? It really is. It is.

[Shane]

Whenever people snake, I swear, at this stage, when people post shit on Facebook, being like, you never trust the right people. I'm like, you're the problem. You're the bad guy.

[Tommy]

You're the problem.

[Shane]

Nine times out of 10, you're probably the bad guy.

[Tommy]

Yeah. And there's therapists out there going, I'm so sorry for you. It's them. They're the problem. And then they come back with the. Like, I'm setting up a boundary. And I'm like, you're horrible. You're horrible. It's like, don't you. I don't know.

[Shane]

Oh, God. Gemma is so. It's that thing where it's like, they're so atrocious. They come back to being entertaining. And like, I. From so afar, I'm entertained by Gemma.

[Tommy]

Oh, yeah.

[Shane]

Awful person. I hope I'm now really loving.

[Mac]

I can't believe I was right. When I was like, your honor, the vibe wasn't right. Literally, she was just like, hey, the vibe wasn't right.

[Shane]

I'm not gonna go. I'm so sorry I couldn't go, but it would ruin the illusion. You understand, right? You get it.

[Tommy]

You get it.

[Shane]

Sorry.

[Tommy]

Yeah.

[Shane]

Update number two. Oh, we gotta get to Judy justice in court.

[Tommy]

Come on. That's amazing to hear.

[Shane]

Fell right into the trap, too. She listed out the exact price in that invoice, too, so smart. Update number two. I didn't think this could get worse, but here we are.

[Tommy]

Oh, boy, oh, boy.

[Shane]

Oh, Gemma cannot win.

[Tommy]

If Gemma wins, I'm walking out of this.

[Shane]

I will be mad. No, Gemma. Look, it's only fun if they don't win 100%. Like, Abby Lee Miller's amazing because she loses so badly.

[Tommy]

I feel like karma got her ass.

[Shane]

Like, it really did it. Did you get to, like, retroactively enjoy so much? Cause it's like. Yeah.

[Tommy]

Well. Yes. So let's see what happened to Gemma.

[Shane]

Okay. I didn't think this could get worse, but here we are. I didn't respond to any of the subliminal messages she posted about me on social media. And I've been very quiet while I've been getting my ducks in a Row for the litigation. But this past Friday, she sent me a three page audit of financial and emotional contributions from 2015 to the present.

[Mac]

Oh, they both have time.

[Shane]

Gemma. Gemma's a demon, dude. Oh, no.

[Tommy]

Wow. Gemma needs a job.

[Shane]

I wish I was fucking joking. The audits. She itemized every dinner or lunch we've ever ate together. She estimated $18 per meal. Gas money for driving to and from hangouts. A birthday gift from 2017 that she now claims she went into debt for time spent emotionally supporting me after my dad passed. She said she took on the role of a grief counselor for me, even though I talked to her on the phone about it once for 30 minutes. One time, she helped me move apartments. She wants to be paid for her labor. And emotional distress caused by me threatening litigation. Emotional distress caused by me threatening litigation. Oh, my God. Hey, you asked for money, and that's really hard for me. Her grand total, $2,412.09, which is conveniently within $25 of what I invoiced her. She then told me that if we're really keeping score, that I actually owe her $24.56.

[Tommy]

Okay, and this is what we're talking about with the. I'm in awe of someone. I'm crazy fascinated, deep in their own shit.

[Shane]

This is when someone pulls a triple axel in Winter Olympics and you're like, how do they do that?

[Tommy]

How'd you do that? How'd you figure out how to do that?

[Shane]

How'd you do that? How'd you figure that out? I think I stared at the document for 10 minutes in silence, in shock from the audacity, because this bitch is delusional. To clarify, I never asked her to cook for me while I was in college. She did pay for lunches, but when I definitely returned the favor big time once I graduated, I bought her many gifts. Over the years, I've let her stay at my house several times when she and John argued. And I have also lended a shoulder for her to cry on when she had difficult times in life. But apparently, being a friend is now billable. I decided to give the message a thumbs down because if I respond, I will be extremely disrespectful with the anger I am facing. I cannot wait for these 30 days to be over because I will be suing the fuck out of her. Okay, as of recording, no other updates at this time. OP did post in R legaladvice a shortened version of this story. Okay. Damn it.

[Mac]

Aw, dang it. No Judy Justice.

[Tommy]

Well, the episode hasn't aired yet.

[Shane]

Okay, so it's been over a month, too. I hope she sued her. I hope she got the money. I'm really upset that we don't have an update from this point on.

[Tommy]

Yeah. Now that Gemma came back with that audit, they better be going to court because that's hilarious.

[Shane]

The amount of content you're going to get out of that.

[Tommy]

Oh, my God. You just vertical clips aplenty.

[Shane]

And it's not even about. It's not even about the money. It's about. We need to see Gemma lose 100%. Like Gemma has to lose 100% just

[Tommy]

for, like, the story of humanity. Like, you know, for thousands of years from now, we'll read about Gemma and they'll go, did she get justice?

[Liberty Mutual Spokesperson]

Yeah.

[Tommy]

True justice.

[Mac]

It's been a month, right?

[Shane]

You said she needs to get justice.

[Mac]

Maybe the.

[Shane]

It's been about a month and a

[Mac]

half as of recording, the case is probably still happening.

[Tommy]

It's probably still.

[Shane]

Maybe they got a court. Maybe they got a court date. Maybe she can't talk about it now that it's in the legal.

[Tommy]

I think that's probably what's going on.

[Shane]

If we get an update, we will let you know, because I need it.

[Mac]

Gemma needs to go down.

[Shane]

Gemma needs to go down.

[Tommy]

Yeah. If there's an update and I don't end the episode, I'm gonna bash through the ceiling. I'm gonna fall flat on the ground just to hear about Gemma.

[Shane]

Oh, my God.

[Tommy]

Oh, my God.

[Shane]

Okay.

[Tommy]

Well, that was fun. And that is messy.

[Shane]

That is some mess.

[Tommy]

That was mess.

[Mac]

Delicious mess.

[Tommy]

Too delicious.

[Shane]

That is messy. I will say, if she sues her and she wins, take that money and get as far away from Gemma as possible.

[Tommy]

100%.

[Shane]

Cause Gemma will be spending the rest of her life doing everything she can to find a way to get back at her.

[Mac]

Yeah.

[Shane]

People like Gemma, you gotta get away from.

[Tommy]

Gotta get away from.

[Mac]

Yeah.

[Shane]

Watch them on tv, right?

[Tommy]

That's where they belong is on tv. Uh huh.

[Shane]

[Tommy]

Uh, oh.

[Shane]

Oh, no, I don't think you had. On Reddit, there's been so many threesome stories and they rarely go well. I think they've maybe. Maybe I read one that went well.

[Tommy]

Well, the thing people don't talk about with threesomes is that they're usually two people are involved in action and then there's another person there too.

[Mac]

Mm.

[Tommy]

And so. Oh, that's how that goes.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Tommy]

Yeah.

[Shane]

My boyfriend, who's 27, and I, a 23 year old woman, have been together for three years. I thought everything was fine, but about a month ago he said he was a little bored. I thought everything was fine, but about a month ago he said he was a little bored and that we needed new stimulation. He said we should both think about this. I thought he meant like, let's go camping and started making plans for something fun to do. But a week ago, we talk again and he says that he's found this girl. 19ish year old woman, and she's perfect for us. He's 27, by the way, that being with this girl will help him see how much he really loves me and may even convince him to marry me.

[Tommy]

Oh, no. Oh no. Oh, this will fix everything, babe. She's a child.

[Mac]

Oh my gosh. What a way to reveal that you've been flirting with other women too.

[Tommy]

Yeah.

[Mac]

A week later it's like, oh, I just happened to find this girl out of nowhere.

[Shane]

That's crazy, babe.

[Mac]

And she be down.

[Shane]

Yeah. What a coincidence to be in a

[Tommy]

three year relationship and then get blindsided by this poof. Yeah, I'd be fucking barely talk about

[Shane]

getting hit by a train just enough.

[Tommy]

Yeah, yeah. I'd scoot him forward an inch or two.

[Shane]

Hey, lean in, lean in. Okay. I was married for 18 months before and I'm embarrassed about being an ex wife already. Nothing to be ashamed about there, but I really didn't want to do it, but he said, oh, that figures. It's kind of disturbing how you reject anything new. Oh my gosh, dude, it's a threesome. That is.

[Mac]

My God.

[Shane]

That is a different category. And that kind of made me feel bad.

[Tommy]

I'm sorry. I had to take it out on the poof. Sorry, little poof.

[Shane]

Op writes that kind of made her feel bad. Anyway, we finally tried to see the girl on Wednesday. She was okay, but the whole thing was too weird for me. We were sitting there awkwardly and then out of the blue, he turned to me and commanded, take your top off. I couldn't do it. I was way too nervous. And everything spiraled from there. The girl left maybe 20 minutes later. Now it's been a few days and he won't talk to me. I'm not sure how to make him see. I'm sorry.

[Mac]

Oh my God.

[Tommy]

So they didn't go through with it?

[Mac]

Oh, no. Girl, stand up. Stand up. Get up. Walk out that room.

[Shane]

I feel so bad, dude.

[Mac]

Also, we just like, you cross over the fact that like, she was already married before and she's only 23.

[Shane]

She's only 23. She was married before for 18 months. And she said she's insecure about being an ex wife already.

[Tommy]

But it's like, dude, no, that's fine.

[Shane]

Who gives a shit? But I already, I feel like this is one of those where it's a short story, but I'm like, okay, I already need to know everything I do about this guy, right? And where her self confidence is at, where he's commanding things of her that she feels so uncomfortable about, but clearly does not feel comfortable setting her boundaries. And it's just like, oh. Cause he's not allowed you to have boundaries before. Makes you feel so guilty for him. She's sitting here being like, oh, like, how do I make him see? I'm sorry. It's like, dude, he get. This guy sucks so bad. Beyond sucking. He is truly awful. The top comment just says, girl, leave. This is manipulative and abusive. 11,000 upvotes.

[Tommy]

Yeah, 11,000.

[Shane]

11,000 upvotes. Hopefully that is enough for her to. I, you know, I can't relate personally, but I know that people in these situations, it is so hard to see from above what they're in and to go, oh, this is absolutely absurd. But they are made to feel that they're the problem in it 100%. Someone said, reject anything new normally means a food, hobby or similar, not creating a situation where he's cheating on you in front of your face. Your relationship is cooked. That's another way to put it. Someone said, you need to learn to value yourself. This hurt to read. Someone responded, I really hope it's rage bait. Lastly, someone said, have a threesome to save the relationship is the new have a baby to save the marriage, apparently. Damn. Yeah. Look, it could be a rage bait post, but this is a very real thing. Like, I have heard personal stories of this type of thing, like from friends. Sadly, it is a thing that happens and it sucks really bad. And it's very clearly. Yeah, you add on top that it's very clearly him cheating and then the audacity.

[Mac]

Like, he's been cheating.

[Shane]

Oh, he's been probably cheating the whole time.

[Tommy]

Well, well, how do you find the 19 year old girl?

[Mac]

Yeah, how do you find the 19 year old girl? Discord.

[Shane]

Oh, Discord. Hello, kitten.

[Tommy]

Hello, kitten. Wanta fuiwei? What's a fui way?

[Shane]

I feel like audacity only can grow. It doesn't ever level out. It seems like, like when people are cheating, it seems like they. It's like, oh, you got away with cheating. Okay, is that gonna end?

[Tommy]

What's next?

[Shane]

And it's like it's never enough. They always find new ways to do it bigger and bigger until it's like, oh, no, I need to actually. How do I now cross this over and make.

[Tommy]

How do I do it in front of her?

[Shane]

My partner needs to be involved in my cheating somehow and I need to make her feel bad about it.

[Tommy]

And also at the beginning being like, hey, and if I get to cheat in front of you, maybe I'll marry you.

[Shane]

Wild shit.

[Tommy]

Ew. What the fuck?

[Shane]

Wild shit.

[Tommy]

That's so disgusting.

[Shane]

No, all of it's manipulative. We were sitting there awkwardly and then out of the blue, he turned to me and commanded, take your top off. Sexy, sexy. Everybody loves that.

[Tommy]

Love that.

[Mac]

The vibes.

[Shane]

Oh my God.

[Tommy]

Send him to Bali.

[Shane]

Send him to Bali.

[Tommy]

Send him to Bali.

[Shane]

Send him to Bali.

[Tommy]

Get him out of here.

[Shane]

Oh, Jesus.

[Tommy]

Them and Gemma and John can hang out. Let's get a bucket of these people.

[Shane]

Send him off to have a threesome with Gemma and John.

[Tommy]

Yay.

[Mac]

Yes.

[Tommy]

Oh my God.

[Shane]

They can bill him for it afterwards.

[Tommy]

Yeah.

[Mac]

For the emotional distress. Yeah, yeah.

[Shane]

God.

[Tommy]

They can claim his small court. Oh,

[Shane]

Our last story. Our last story comes from relationship advice and it was posted in July of 2020. This is a 28 year old woman. She writes, My best friend, a 29 year old woman since birth, gave me a bad reference for a job she told me to apply to. Okay.

[Mac]

All right.

[Shane]

Background. Our parents have known each other since before we were born. My parents moved across the street from her parents. Her mom baked my mom and dad a cake and they've been friends ever since. They even got pregnant around the same time. And gave birth a few months apart. Tori and I literally grew up together and have always been close. We were inseparable as kids and have always called each other sisters. We freshman year of high school, her dad got a job opportunity and they ended up moving to California. We were in Ohio at the time so it was kind of hard to maintain a long distance friendship because of the time difference and everything that was going on in our lives, but we still remained close, alternating visiting each other during our summer breaks. We applied and got into the same college after high school, so we were finally reunited at college. As we dormed together, things were perfect. Present Day we are both married to our husbands. We live in the same town. Our husbands are best friends as well. Due to this COVID pandemic, I was laid off from my telemarketing job. It was fine at first because my husband was able to pick up a few extra shifts and maintain our household, but his overtime started getting cut so now we are only living off of one income and have had to use our savings to pay a few bills. As of recently, I've been looking for a new job and it's been hard because no one has been hiring. Tori and I get together once every other week for drinks. I mentioned to her that I was having a hard time job searching and she suggested that I apply at her job and that she would put in a good word for me and I'd be hired. We talked about how fun it would be to work together. Tori is in a similar field as I was, not exactly the same, but she said that I'd have no problem getting in and that they'd train me for whatever I didn't know. Later that week I applied and was called a few days later for a phone interview. We went over my application and she asked how I was referred to the job. I mentioned Tori and she genuinely sounded excited and bragged about what a great employee Tori is and how she was referring me. I'd probably be a perfect fit. We finished up the phone interview and she said that she would ask Tori a few follow up questions but that the job was pretty much mine and to be expecting a call back by a certain day. I texted Tori telling her how things went and thanking her immensely. However, the day came that I was supposed to hear something back and I haven't heard anything at Tori and I's get together. I asked her if her boss ever asked her about me and Tori said no and that she would let me know if she did. Two more weeks passed and still no Word. I asked Tori again and all she said was that they decided to hire someone else because they had more experience. So I dropped it after that. A month later and I'm finally back working and my husband and I are getting back on our feet. I suggested that we invite Tori and her husband over for dinner and my husband immediately said no. I've noticed that my husband and her husband haven't been talking. I asked him about it and he brushed it off. I asked Tori about it at our get together and she brushed it off as well. However, I knew that was odd as they talked almost daily and got together weekly for beer and poker with a few other friends and that hasn't been happening either. I decided to press the issue more with my husband and he finally broke down and said that the reason why him and Matt weren't speaking was because of Tori. He explained that the job Tori said she would speak up for me to get, she actually did the opposite. I asked what he meant and he explained that her boss actually did ask Tori about me and she said a few things to deter her from hiring me. I asked why he kept this from me for so long and he said it was better that I didn't know because he didn't want to ruin our friendship. Matt actually told him what Tori did and he told Matt to tell Tori to do the right thing. They got into an argument and that's why they weren't speaking. I called Tori and she admitted that my husband was telling the truth and and said the reason why she didn't vouch for me was because she didn't want things to change between us because at work she was a completely different person, whatever that meant. So after thinking about asking me to apply, she decided to change her mind, but couldn't bring herself to tell me that. I was absolutely disgusted. She knew how much my husband and I were struggling and decided to sabotage my chance of getting a job for no real reason. I hung up and blocked her number. It's been nearly a month and we haven't talked yet. However, my husband and her husband are back on speaking terms and my husband wants me to make up with Tori and let it go so that things can go back to how they were. However, I'm not sure if they can. I feel like I've been stabbed in the back. Do I have a right to feel how I feel? Or is it time to move on and let bygones be bygones? I admit that I do miss her, but I feel like I can't trust her. Anymore. Had she told me the truth from the beginning, I would have been okay. But she lied to my face on multiple occasions. That's messy.

[Tommy]

That's messy.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Mac]

Layers.

[Shane]

Whoa, that's rough. Many layers to this cake. That. That's how their parents became friends.

[Tommy]

Exactly. And on the cake it said, our daughters are gonna get in a feud later.

[Shane]

We all fucked. They wrote, we all fucked at the same time.

[Tommy]

Right. They high five.

[Shane]

Congrats to us.

[Tommy]

Yeah.

[Shane]

Okay, so to bring it all back, the friend is like, oh, you don't have a job. Let me recommend you for this job at my work. And she applies. And then she's like, actually, I don't want you to work with me. So when the boss asks after the interview goes, great. She goes, actually, no, she's stinky or whatever. And they go, okay. Everyone's saying it, says a bunch of shit. She doesn't have the job. But then doesn't follow up with her friend, doesn't tell her friend that that's what happened. And then her husband finds out about all this and doesn't talk to her about it either, because he's like, well, I want your guys friendship not to be affected.

[Tommy]

That double sucks.

[Shane]

That sucks.

[Tommy]

Cause then your husband's also not telling you that.

[Shane]

Yeah, that's so weird. Cause the husband. It was enough for the husband to not talk to them, but he's not gonna tell the wife, so that it's not. I don't know. That sucks. I feel like she was betrayed by multiple people. You're left out of all of it. And then now that she finds out and she's mad, now the husband's like, actually, can you go back to being friends? Can things go back to being normal? And like, I'm kind of mad at the husband almost as much as I am at the friend.

[Tommy]

Tori.

[Mac]

Yeah.

[Shane]

Emily's throwing out things. She's asking if we think other things are happening here.

[Tommy]

It is like, what? There can't be two stinky girls that work at Tori's work.

[Shane]

Do we think? I guess maybe I'm the stinky one.

[Mac]

Do we think the husbands are fucking? Yes.

[Shane]

Oh, that would be good. That would be fun.

[Tommy]

That would be good.

[Shane]

A heated rivalry moment.

[Tommy]

Oh, my. Any gay sex is heated rivalry, by the way.

[Mac]

Okay, good to know. Good to know.

[Shane]

Me, a straight guy. That's what I. That's all you can think of? It's just like, oh, they're gay. I'm like, oh, heated rivalry.

[Tommy]

You're in the kitchen and someone's like, yeah, I got it on last night and you're like, where do the hockey sticks go? Yeah, where do the hockey. Do you put them? Where do you put them?

[Shane]

Where you put the hockey Around West Hollywood? Sure. A lot of hockey players around here.

[Tommy]

Is there a game happening today?

[Shane]

Where's the ice rink? Am I right?

[Mac]

All right.

[Tommy]

These guys aren't dressed for cool weather.

[Shane]

You guys aren't Canadian, are you?

[Tommy]

I love that bit.

[Shane]

[Liberty Mutual Spokesperson]

and Doug, there's nowhere I wouldn't go to help someone customize and save on car insurance with Liberty Mutual. Even if it means sitting front row at a comedy show.

Aprobecha Los ahoros de Memorial Day and los y compra los vasicos parelo gar pormenos ahoro centadolares en la parria gas de cuatro que madores char Royal performance series. Types of Reddit stories. If I'm like, okay, is something else going on? Is just unreliable narrator. Yeah, it's just like, what caused your friend to go, actually, I don't want you working here? And did the friend actually offer to have. The only thing that I could think of is OP is writing like, oh, my friend was like, oh, come work at this job. I'm like, did they offer it or did you push? And they were like, oh, yeah, I guess there is an openings at my job. Is that what's happening now? That's me jumping to a lot of

[Mac]

conclusions that could be a situation. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Shane]

Based on.

[Mac]

I understand the whole, like, oh, when I'm in this environment, I'm a completely different person. I don't want you. Like, I get.

[Shane]

I get fully, totally get it.

[Mac]

I don't want the perspective you have proposed makes sense with that response other than like, the idea of her like switching.

[Shane]

Right.

[Tommy]

If she tried to avoid having OP at her job, she could have just been like, hey, I actually have no say once it gets past me.

[Mac]

Yeah.

[Tommy]

But it sounds like it got pretty far.

[Shane]

Oof.

[Tommy]

I don't know.

[Shane]

Yeah. And if you're gonna. If you're gonna. If you're gonna get to that point where you're. You're now being honest. I think the friend Torey needs to be honest about why. Like. Cause I think just being like, oh, well, I don't want you to see. Like, you need to really lay it out.

[Mac]

Right.

[Tommy]

This might be a good time to be a friend.

[Shane]

You need to really lay it out of like, hey, here is the explicit reasons why I felt uncomfortable. Now you add though the layer that this is mid pandemic and they're literally struggling for money. And it's like, okay, like, cool. I get that feeling of like, oh, it's awkward. Whatever. This person needs a job. They need money.

[Tommy]

Right.

[Shane]

And that's your friend. It's like, that's.

[Tommy]

I think both things can happen where it's like, what sucks is this person held up her. Tori held up OP from getting a job sooner by dealing with all of this messy shit. Like, if she didn't want her to work there, she could have just been like, said something.

[Mac]

Yeah.

[Tommy]

And just been like, here, go a different way. Cause you can get a job faster and you won't struggle as long, yes,

[Mac]

that lack of communication, I'll still be pissed off, basically.

[Shane]

A lot of times, lack of confrontation causes more issues than almost always. Pretty much always. Comments? Someone said, I can't begin to imagine how painful this must be for you to find out your best friend of nearly three decades couldn't even give you a good recommendation to a job she recommended you to. Her reasons were purely selfish, and that's just the simple truth of it. She put herself ahead of you for no personal gain. Which leads me to believe that she's not being 100% honest on the reason she did what she did. I'm sure her work personality is a bit different than how you typically know her, but that can't logically be the reason. She just basically threw away 30 years of friendship. Either way, she's wronged you, and you're well within your rights to never speak to her again. However, ultimately, it is up to you. My suggestion is you invite her over to have a talk, just you and her, no husbands involved. If she can't be honest and give you a genuine apology, then she's not worth it. Then again, she might be honest and actually apologize. Even if she does, you're well within your rights to still not speak to her, no matter what. You deserve an apology. Okay, that's interesting, to invite her over, not have husbands. There's also that element. Are the husbands trustworthy? Like. Cause as you brought up earlier, maybe they're fucking, but maybe there's just. Maybe they're just being toxic. Maybe they're just being shitty. Maybe there's some. Maybe they're involved somehow. I don't know. I'm trying to think of every possibility, every angle, because we have an update.

[Mac]

Oh,

[Shane]

So we have an update. Which means.

[Mac]

That was so dramatic. Wait, I love that. Should I have posed, too? I didn't pose. Do it again, do it again, do it again, do it again. Okay, get ready, get ready, get ready.

[Shane]

All right, we have an update. Who do we think comes out as the ultimate bad guy?

[Tommy]

Comes out.

[Shane]

Oh,

[Tommy]

who do you think comes out as the ultimate bad guy?

[Shane]

Who do we think? Because right now, Tory is the bad guy, right? Seems pretty clear cut and dry, Right? And maybe that's the safest bet. Yeah, easy, easy bet that Tory's gonna be the ultimate bad guy. Is Op the bad guy, though? Is one of the husbands a bad guy? Are both the husbands a bad guy?

[Mac]

I'm wondering, are the husbands fucking?

[Shane]

Because this is messy, right? This is messy Reddit stories, which means things can Switch up then.

[Tommy]

I'm gonna bet Op is a wackadoodle or something.

[Shane]

Whoa.

[Tommy]

We have an unreliable. My bet is we have an unreliable narrator.

[Shane]

Unreliable narrator?

[Mac]

Tori doesn't exist.

[Shane]

Wait, Tori is not real.

[Tommy]

It's her imaginary friend and her husband's M. Night Shyamalan. Cause he's got to cameo in his movie.

[Shane]

Yes. Got it. I'm gonna throw a bet out there, okay? That one of the husbands or both the husbands are somehow the bad guy.

[Tommy]

Okay.

[Shane]

I don't know how. It makes no sense.

[Tommy]

Well, they're men.

[Shane]

Yeah. And everyone applauded. Update is two days later. Oh, thank you all for your comments and advice. I'm glad to know I wasn't overthinking the situation. I called Tori yesterday and gave her the opportunity to meet up, apologize, and explain more in depth. She accepted my offer, and we had lunch at a nearby restaurant today. Some of you guessed that the reason she didn't want me at her job was because she could have been hiding something. That was correct. Okay.

[Mac]

A shirred nipple.

[Tommy]

An egg. She's the Easter bunny.

[Mac]

An egg.

[Shane]

She told me that she was indeed having an affair with a co worker. You're dead.

[Tommy]

Oh, my God.

[Mac]

Aw.

[Shane]

So that means Tori's like, oh, yeah, you can come work here. Oh, my God. I totally forgot about my affair. Oh, I forgot I'm cheating.

[Tommy]

Oh. Whoa.

[Mac]

Wow.

[Shane]

Op writes. I didn't buy it at all. It just didn't make sense. Because if that was the case, why would she tell her husband that she sabotaged me rather than keep that to herself? Turns out that my husband was pressuring him for answers as well. And her husband kept reminding her to ask her boss why I didn't get the job. That's when she told him what she did. She also gave him a completely different explanation of why she didn't want me working there. She showed me months of steamy texts and sex between her and her coworkers.

[Mac]

And sex.

[Shane]

Steamy texts. Oh, there. That and sex.

[Tommy]

Steamy sex was like, hey, look at

[Mac]

this video of me getting back shot.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Tommy]

Pretty good affair, huh? Pretty good affair.

[Shane]

Yeah. Yeah, Check it out. Oh, and that's Judy Justice's ass. I just took a screenshot of that. And. Okay. She showed me months of steamy text and sexts between her and her coworker. So I knew that she was telling the truth. Just to prove that I'm cheating on my husband. Here's proof. I asked her why she didn't just tell me. She said that she was scared that people at her job would ask me questions and it would come out that she's married. The guy at her job that she's been seeing doesn't even know and thinks they are in an exclusive relationship. She said that if I found out about the affair and she was afraid that I'd tell my husband and since our husbands are best friends, he would tell hers. She gets together with her coworker for a few hours after work and on weekends. Apparently she doesn't even work weekends. Her husband thought that she was at work all this time. She said that having me work there would ruin things as our schedules wouldn't add up and it would get back to her husband and he would question her about why. I asked her why she had me apply and said that she would get me in knowing she had no intentions of having me work with her. She said that she didn't think I'd really take her up on her offer as I've made comments before about her work sounding boring and that she was really hoping that if she dragged it out long enough I'd get tired of waiting and look elsewhere. The million dollar question that I asked her was what did you say to your boss to change her mind about offering me the job? She said she told her boss that having me work there would honestly probably just be a distraction and she wouldn't perform her best and that I was known to be lazy and a slacker. Definitely not true. She did offer her sincere apology and said that she felt terrible knowing what all John and I were going through and she didn't help, but I just can't see myself forgiving her or even trusting her again after this situation. Basically, the best friend that I have known all these years has turned into a complete stranger. I feel like I don't even know her anymore. This isn't someone I want in my life, especially after she caused me to look foolish by badmouthing me to her boss. I told her that our friendship was over and that she'd better have a talk with her husband because no way was I holding this back from mine. A few hours later my husband got a call from hers. Tori told him the news and they are now separating and he will file for a divorce in the upcoming weeks. Tori is, believe it or not, moving in with her co worker. I haven't heard from her since leaving the restaurant and honestly don't plan on talking to her ever again. Almost 30 years of friendship gone over. A string of lies. As for my husband, he and I had a long talk after revealing to me that he already knew what Torey did. I explained to him that it is never okay to keep things like that from me, no matter what. I understand him and Matt have a very good friendship, but me and my feelings should come first in future situations like this. He agreed and will eventually gain my trust back. Okay, we had to trim some edits of that because we have to get to update number two.

[Tommy]

Oh.

[Mac]

Oh, my God. Okay, wait, so her husband thought she was working like seven days a week or something?

[Shane]

Yeah, my wife, her telemarketing job, she's on call all the time.

[Mac]

All the time.

[Shane]

They're paying firemen, I guess, right?

[Tommy]

There's a poll. Jesus. Okay, my question or not question. So I think we have to really congratulate OP because she brought Tori to a restaurant.

[Shane]

Thank you.

[Tommy]

Thank you for bringing your mess to a public place for us to hear.

[Shane]

If I overheard that shit, I'm. Oh, I'm like, I'm forgetting what I'm eating.

[Tommy]

I'm like, bring me more chips.

[Shane]

I'd be like, more chip at the table.

[Tommy]

Please, Please, now.

[Shane]

Oh, my God.

[Mac]

I'm just really thirsty. I just, like, really want water over and over again. I just don't want to leave because I'm just so thirsty.

[Tommy]

Oh, my God. Like, I'd be there for my fucking next meal. I'd be there fucking. That's like another dessert.

[Shane]

Thank you table with the two of them. They'd be like, someone ordered you guys Long Island Iced Tea. And I would tell them, oh, yeah. They'd be like. They're like, oh, that was an accident. I go. I go, no, it's fine. Just drink them. Like, I'd be like, just go. Just go.

[Tommy]

And now you're producing reality TV is

[Shane]

actually what you're doing.

[Tommy]

It's like wasted and see what happens. Wow.

[Shane]

No, this is. By the way, this is awful. Oh, yeah. I should be clear. This is awful.

[Tommy]

Yeah.

[Shane]

Once again, the audacity. I mentioned this earlier. The audacity can only grow, right?

[Tommy]

Also, I'm glad she's like, you're not my fucking friend anymore.

[Shane]

Thank God.

[Tommy]

Because if you're. If, like, you're already dealing with the lying about why and all the job, but it's like, oh, but you're also cheating on someone who's also my friend. You know, it's like, so her whole

[Shane]

character and the cheating can only hurt kind of everyone in the village.

[Tommy]

Exactly, exactly. And it already is because she got offhand through the job of it all. She got fucked over, dude. So it's I'm glad that she. Okay. Two wins restaurant and bye bye friend.

[Mac]

I didn't think there would be more layers to the mess, but there's more layers.

[Tommy]

But there's more layers.

[Shane]

And now they're filing for divorce and she's gonna go be with the co worker and that's gonn that's gonna go well.

[Tommy]

And there certainly won't be more cheating.

[Shane]

I've heard that relationships that start with affairs go well. Yes, I've read about them and they last. Okay. And by the way, the co worker does not know that she is married. He doesn't know that it's an affair.

[Tommy]

Right.

[Shane]

They establish him just let us know.

[Tommy]

I wonder.

[Mac]

And then she just moved in with him. Is he aware that, like, she's getting divorced?

[Shane]

I don't know. I'm assuming no. She sounds like she will lie forever.

[Tommy]

And how do you do that? How do you go, yeah, we're moving in. And then be like getting a divorce behind, like going to the bathroom real quick to sign some papers. How is she doing this?

[Shane]

I don't know how people do it.

[Tommy]

Another triple axel on the ice.

[Shane]

It's truly a triple axel.

[Tommy]

Unbelievable. All right, maybe this next update will shed some light.

[Shane]

Great. I love that Emily is giving us like Emily's giving us the Nintendo direct of affairs.

[Tommy]

Oh, really? Yeah, yeah.

[Shane]

She's like, next up, we have something very exciting.

[Tommy]

That's 100% the energy. That's 100% the energy. Emily is smosh pits. Miyamoto. Like, that's just what it is. That's just what it is. That's so funny.

[Shane]

This affair is going all the way to the animal crossing islands. All right, here we go.

[Tommy]

Okay, another update. Here we go.

[Shane]

Update number two, gorge. This is one day after that last update. Okay, they write, my former best friend posted a Reddit about me in this sub to get sympathy, but it's a complete lie.

[Tommy]

So this.

[Shane]

Sorry. Okay, sorry, guys. Tori has posted in Relationship Advice Rise. Back up, back up.

[Tommy]

Okay, I'm in.

[Shane]

I'm in. Tori has entered the building like the fucking undertaker.

[Tommy]

Like with the. Okay, sorry.

[Mac]

No, Tori.

[Shane]

Tori has posted. My former best friend posted a Reddit about me in this sub to get sympathy, but it's a complete lie. I actually came across this on Twitter. I gave it a read and noticed that besides the names, the story sounded similar to what happened between me and Megan. I came to Reddit and read the update as well. And it is about me. I am Tori and just wanted to clear up a few Things one, that night at dinner while she was complaining about not having a job and money, I never told her to apply to mine. I already knew that would have been a bad idea and not for the reason she stated. She told me that I was just being cynical and applied anyway and put my name down as a referral. Number two, Megan never listens and thinks that she is always right no matter what. My boss did ask me about her and I did nothing but tell the truth. I really didn't think I would be as productive being around her and trying to focus on my job as well. Number three, Megan really is a lazy piece of shit. Hence the reason. Hence the reason why shence the reason why she was depending on my job instead of going out and finding her own. 4. As for the update she posted, what Megan didn't mention was that my husband and I have been separated for seven months. We were keeping it quiet, but she and her husband both knew we are living in the same house until my condo is ready, which will be later this year. Number five, the co worker that I'm so called having an affair with is completely updated on my situation and has been the entire time my soon to be ex husband even knows about him, but I never brought him back to our house out of respect. I can't believe that someone I once called a best friend would stoop so low and have a majority of the Internet trash talking me when the situation is not what she is making it seem whatsoever. For those of you that took my side, thank you for seeing the bigger picture. Thank you Megan. If you're reading this, I hope that gold was worth your dignity in losing not only your best friend, but your only friend. Oh, and by the way, don't bother contacting my boss. I quit this morning.

[Tommy]

Oh, oh, slow down Tori. You're gonna get full for playing so much.

[Mac]

Ooh, delicious.

[Tommy]

Yeah. Oh my God.

[Mac]

Yum yum, yum.

[Tommy]

I need a fucking Boba straw to suck that shit up. Ooh, delish. And you know what? I called that shit, did I not? I was like, I bet our OP is the problem. An unreliable nar. Okay, so it wasn't an affair cause they were already separated.

[Mac]

Yeah,

[Tommy]

that was. I'm so satisfied.

[Shane]

So it sounds like OP was just going on Reddit living out a fantasy of playing out of like, oh, my friend wronged me, but actually they're kind of a piece of shit. So it's kind of like Tori is now. It's like, why were you friends with OP when she was like. But it's tough when you're. I guess their husbands are friends and all this stuff. I don't know. Oh, my God. What people will do for karma on Reddit.

[Tommy]

Unbelievable. I will say regardless. I'm like, that was just so fun, was it not?

[Shane]

What a ride.

[Mac]

Yeah.

[Tommy]

Oh, my God.

[Shane]

We have one comment. Now we just need an update from both husbands, and we'll have a whole conspiracy on our hands.

[Tommy]

Well, they're playing a game in Canada right now, so.

[Mac]

Yeah, they're.

[Shane]

Yeah.

[Tommy]

Once they get back.

[Shane]

Once they get back.

[Mac]

They're slapping that puck around.

[Tommy]

Once they get back.

[Shane]

Yeah, yeah.

[Mac]

And then also doing hockey, by the way.

[Shane]

I've watched it.

[Mac]

I watched it and I didn't flinch. Once.

[Shane]

Holy fuck.

[Tommy]

That's incredible.

[Mac]

Oh, that got him.

[Tommy]

Oh, that's good. It was good. That's really good. That's really good.

[Shane]

All right.

[Tommy]

Wow.

[Shane]

Damn. I love when the updates swing back in that direction. I know.

[Tommy]

God, there could not have been a more delicious update.

[Mac]

That was great. That was great.

[Tommy]

I love that.

[Shane]

It's always my favorite. Cause we've done so many episodes of this show, and I know it can happen. I know there can be an update from another person in the story. Being like, they're lying, but I never expect it. Cause it is few and far between. It's like every few months we get that, and it's the best.

[Mac]

I lowkey feel like most people lie on Reddit.

[Shane]

It's probably true.

[Mac]

Yeah.

[Tommy]

Yeah.

[Shane]

Oh, yeah. No, it's tough. There's layers of it, right? Like, there's the iceberg of, like, all right, this person is a person, but they're lying. And I'm like, all right. And I kind of assume that with most things, it's just. As long as I'm like, okay, as long as it's not a robot writing this, pretending to be a person. Cause that scares me.

[Mac]

Right?

[Shane]

But. Oh, for sure. And even when I think a person is telling their truth, it's still gonna be their truth. So it's missing. So that's why I say I take everything as a hypothetical. Cause I'm like, whatever. But I love when this shit happens. It's the best. My God.

[Tommy]

Don't think I've felt this.

[Shane]

That was great. Wow.

[Mac]

And there's no other response? No.

[Tommy]

Now we're left in this emptiness.

[Mac]

I wonder how Megan is feeling right now.

[Tommy]

I know. Well, she just fucking.

[Shane]

She got caught.

[Tommy]

She's holding her ass. Cause she just had it handed to her.

[Mac]

We had our own Judy justice tonight.

[Tommy]

That's right. Tonight. Yes, we did. Today.

[Shane]

Damn.

[Mac]

Damn.

[Shane]

Well, that's all our stories.

[Tommy]

What a time.

[Shane]

What a time.

[Tommy]

This is the best. Delicious.

[Shane]

Tommy, you died and came back to life. Yeah, really seen it all.

[Mac]

Modern day Jesus.

[Tommy]

I'll cure you. Ding. And then you're not gay anymore.

[Mac]

He really likes the gay.

[Shane]

They're very smart. They're very smart jokes. Not just cause they're gay. It's cause they're smart, Jake. It's not just cause they're gay.

[Tommy]

It's cause they're gay.

[Mac]

Hey,

[Shane]

the gay part of the joke is fine. It's the Mac. It's been great having you here.

[Mac]

You're great having me. I like being here.

[Shane]

It's always a party when you're here. It's the best. And Tommy, thank you so much.

[Tommy]

Hey, thanks.

[Shane]

You guys are both so fantastic. Thank you all for watching. I hope you enjoyed this wild ride. I hope. I kind of hope. Or that many of you died and came back to life from that story as well. As long as you're here and yeah, we'll see you next Saturday. Bye.

[Liberty Mutual Spokesperson]

And Doug, there's nowhere I wouldn't go to help someone customize and save on car insurance with Liberty Mutual. Even if it means sitting front row at a comedy show.

[Shane]

Hey, everyone. Check out this guy and his bird. What is this, your first date? Oh, no.

[Liberty Mutual Spokesperson]

We help people customize and save on car insurance with Liberty Mutual together. We're married.

[Shane]

Me to a human, him to a bird. Yeah, the bird looks out of your league.

[Liberty Mutual Spokesperson]
