The Birch Show We've done War of the Roses now for a year and a half, two years, and each week it always seems to be a little different than the last. This one we're dubbing the Osbourne's version of War of the Roses. Hey Lisa.
Lindsey
Hi.
Burt
How are you? I can already hear the stress. What's going on?
Lisa
I have issues. Okay. My boyfriend, we've been together for like about a year and the first, maybe about four or five months we were together, he was like, he was messing around. He was like, basically this, like that works at this restaurant down the street from where we live.
Burt
Is that her real name?
Lisa
Yeah, that's her name. No, actually, I think her first name is Genki. Because that's exactly who she is. And, you know, she works at, like, I don't know, like, the Evil or some, like, you know, down the street. And. Yeah, I don't. I, like, came home from work one day and, like, caught them in bed together. It's like. It was so bad. I don't even know, like. And my man just around on me when I'm at work, like, trying to make the dollar. Do you know what I mean? It's just.
Burt
Lisa, I'm no psychologist, but I am sensing that there's still some anger.
Lisa
A little bit. A little bit. And I'll tell you why. This is so up. So up. He needs to keep it in his pants, too. But I saw in his car, like, a box from.
Burt
Okay.
Lisa
Like a To go. Like a to go bag. And it wasn't old. It was, like, pretty fresh. It was like, you know.
Burt
How long ago was this?
Lisa
Yesterday.
Tom Dumont
Oh, okay.
Lisa
All right. Yeah.
Burt
So if I'm hearing you right, he goes out when you guys first start dating, he has sex with a woman that works over at See you, Boy. Pat.
Lisa
Yeah. You know what I did to him, too? When he was sleeping, I burned him with my curling iron.
Burt
This is so. This is so hell. Why are you even still with this guy? What is the matter with you?
Lisa
Because I love him.
Burt
Oh, come on now. No, you don't.
Lisa
Yes, I do. He's just up. But I do love him.
Burt
So this guy messes around on you, you burn him with a curling iron, you stay together, he comes home with a bag in his car, and now you want to get out of the relationship?
Lisa
I just. I don't necessarily want to get out. I just want to find out what's going on. I want to find out if he's with the. That works down the street.
Lindsey
Now, maybe if you broke up with him, you wouldn't have so much bitterness.
Burt
Yeah. Why are you with this guy? He's never gonna treat you right anyway. Why are we even making this call?
Lisa
I just wanna know. Because, you know, he does love me. Even though he can't keep it in his pants. He has. He says he's been faithful. I just wanna. I just wanna find out.
Burt
I'm just curious. Cause I've never talked to anybody that actually caught somebody else in bed. What is that whole scenario? Like, you open up the door, there he is literally having sex with somebody else. And what does he say?
Lisa
Well, basically, they didn't say much because I was too busy hitting them and screaming and like, you know, kicking them out of the bedroom. But yeah, like I went in there and it totally smelled like sex. It was so bad asses and you know, whatever.
Burt
This is not gonna go well. Will you make a promise to me once we find out if this guy is sleeping with Siebel that you don't stab or shoot him?
Lisa
Yeah. Okay.
Burt
Or burn him with a curling iron?
Lisa
Yeah, I can't promise that.
Burt
I just know I can already tell where this thing is going. I mean, this guy is messing around. You're aware of that, right?
Lisa
I don't know. I'm not sure.
Lindsey
Okay.
Lisa
You know, he couldn't even around with a. That works at a decent restaurant, you know, not even like the Olive Garden.
Lindsey
Be.
Lisa
We'll find.
Burt
All right, what's dude's name that we're calling?
Lisa
His name's Bob.
Burt
You know, we're gonna give Bob a call here.
Lisa
Okay?
Burt
You just stay on the line. I know as hard as this is gonna be for you, don't say anything until Lindsay finds out who he's gonna turn around and send the flowers to. And also what he's gonna write on the card. Okay. And as soon as we find out what he's gonna write on the card, then you can go ahead and you can pretty much say anything you want. Alright?
Lisa
Oh.
Lindsey
Hello, Is Bob in, please?
Lisa
Speaking.
Lindsey
Hey Bob, this is Lindsey from the Rose Bunker. How are you?
Lisa
Lindsay?
Lindsey
Yeah, from the Rose Bunker. New flower shop in the area. How you doing?
Lisa
Cool.
Lindsey
Yeah? Did I wake you up?
Lisa
Um, yeah.
Lindsey
I'm so sorry, Bob. I apologize. I started calling people a couple hours ago, so I figured that you'd be up. I apolog. But I have good news for you.
Lisa
Cool.
Lindsey
As part of a promotional offer, we are gonna send you a dozen long stem red roses. And you can send the roses to whomever you want. So you basically get to send someone free flowers. Do you want to send someone free flowers?
Lisa
Free flowers?
Lindsey
Yeah. Totally. Free flowers. Bob, what have you been doing this morning?
Lisa

Lisa

Lisa
Yeah. Got these free flowers and thought of you.

Lindsey
Okay. Maybe you want to do something more romantic.
Lisa
That's cool.
Lindsey
Do you love her?
Lisa
I guess.
Lindsey
You guess? Is she like the one and only for you.
Burt
Let me go ahead and interrupt here. This is Burt, and that's Lindsey, and We're calling from Q100 radio.
Lisa
Okay.
Burt
And we actually have Lisa on the other line right now.
Lisa
Hey, Lisa, you want to say guess, though? Like you don't know.
Burt
Like you have to think about it.
Lisa
Like you guess. What the is that? Lisa, you know I love you.
Burt
Hey, Bob, let me tell you what's going on.
Lisa
You don't know you love me. You had to think about it. You guess so.
Burt
Oh, come on now. You got to give him a break.
Lisa
No, you dumb. I'm just waking up. And let me ask you a question, since we're on the subject anyway. What are you doing eating at evil bats?
Burt
Hey, Bob.
Lisa
Yeah?
Burt
Here's what's going on. Lisa thought maybe that you were getting back together with that girl over at.
Lisa
I found a bag, Bob, in your car.
Burt
That's what I was gonna say. And she thought maybe that there's something going on between you and that girl that works over at Zebra Becky. And that's why she places to make sure that. That there was nothing.
Lisa
Free flowers.
Lindsey
You are. But.
Lisa
But with the free flowers, it's always about free, isn't it? Oh, oh. Has nothing to say.
Burt
Lisa, do you think you're being just a little hard on the guy? He sent him back to you.
Lisa
He guesses he loves me, the dumb. What is that? Why don't you go to the evil pine and guess you like, love someone over there or some lis. You give him some flowers. Give me some flowers. What are you doing here, evil pine? I'm hungry. I don't even want hungry.
Burt
I don't even know we're gonna let you guys go. The good news here, Lisa, is Bob turned around and he sent the roses to you. I mean, you gotta give him a little bit of a break here.
Lisa
Yeah, I'll give him a break later.
Burt
See you guys.
Lindsey
Good luck, guys.
Burt
Bye.
Lisa
What?
Burt
The Birch show. You can listen to the show for 15 minutes and realize that Jeff is evil. But the day that we put the shock collar on Phil Tirana and had Jeff at the conference was the day that we realized the true darkness in Jeff Dollars heart.
Lisa
We're sitting in my car right outside of a fast food restaurant in Atlanta. And what's gonna happen in about a minute, I'm gonna walk in to the restaurant and sit at one of the tables and just look at, you know, newspaper or something, like I'm waiting for somebody. And then once Phil sees me sitting all comfortable he is going to walk into the restaurant and go up to the counter, and he's gonna be on the cell phone with you guys. Okay, so you guys were just. So you know, we're at chick fil A. All right, so place an order with him at the Chick Fil A. So you tell him what you want. Okay, well, he will order from the counter at random times. During that conversation, I'm going to press the red button on the pet safe electronic dog training collar, which he will be wearing around his neck.
Burt
More thing.
Lisa
This, I am sure, at the at the least will make him stutter. At the most, will make him cry out.
Lindsey
Or poop his pants.
Lisa
Yeah, or poop his pants. All right, give me a code word when I hit it the first time Somebody order hot chocolate.
Burt
Small hot chocolate.
Lisa
Okay, when you say small hot chocolate, that's start.

Lindsey
Okay, so tell me if this sounds familiar. You're out with your friends and someone mentions how much they're saving every month, and you're like, wait, should I know that number? Because I'm gonna be straight up with you. That was me. I mean, I thought I was doing fine. I'm paying bills and I'm saving a little here and there.

Morning, Zoe.
Burt
Got donuts.
Lindsey
Jeff Bridges. Why are you still living above our garage?
Burt
Well, I dig the mattress and I want to be in a T Mobile commercial like you.
Lisa
Teach me so.
Burt
Dana.
Lisa
Oh, no.
Lindsey
I'm not really prepared. I couldn't possibly AT T Mobile get the new iPhone 17 Pro on them. It's designed to be the most powerful iPhone yet and has the ultimate pro camera system.
Burt
Wow, impressive. Let me try.
Lisa
T Mobile is the best place to.
Burt
Get iPhone 17 Pro because they've got the best network.
Lindsey
Nice. Jeffrey, you heard them.
Burt
T Mobile is the best place to get the new iPhone 17 Pro on us with eligible traded in any condition. So what are we having for lunch?
Lindsey
Dude, my work here is done.
Burt

Burt
Chances are pretty good. If they're important to Atlanta, then at one point or another they've joined the Burt show. Jane Fonda. No different. Good morning.
Jane Fonda
Good morning.
Burt
It's so good to have you in here.
Jane Fonda
Well, it's good to be here.
Burt
You stopped acting in 1992. Is there anything that you really miss about acting? Or what's the biggest thing that you miss about acting?
Jane Fonda
No, I don't really miss anything. You know, I test myself. I go to a movie with a part in it that I could have played and I said, do I miss this? No, I don't.
Lindsey
Have you found that you needed to find some other kind of creative outlet now that you're not acting anymore?
Jane Fonda
Well, let me tell you something. The thing that I find crazy creative about acting is that you get inside the skin of another person. And it's all about human transformation and the factors that cause people to change. I'm doing that now, but I'm doing it in real life. I'm working with young people and their parents to figure out how can you get them to change? From people who see no hope, from people who don't know how to be good parents, to people who see a hope. Because hope is the best contraceptive. We're trying to get young people from having babies until they're ready to be really good parents.
Burt
And this is what GCAP is all about.
Jane Fonda
That's what gcap, the Georgia Campaign for Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention, is all about. And that is my creative, inspirational life. Why do I care about that? Because it took me 60 years to get my act together, that's why. And I don't want other girls and boys to have to wait so long.
Burt
What Struggles specifically, are you talking about that led you into doing.
Jane Fonda
I'll just name one.
Burt
Okay.
Jane Fonda
Oh, my gosh. If I really am who I am and say what I really feel, he won't love me anymore. And what's interesting is you can be a very strong and powerful woman, politically, socially, professionally, but behind the closed doors of your intimate relationship, you can lose your voice. It's generational and it's cultural. And it's not that men are bad or that anyone's doing this on purpose. It's just it's part of a society that's been around as long as agriculture, and it can be changed. You know, I figure if I can change, anybody can change.
Burt
In 1995, you were nominated as one of the sexiest women in. In film. And I was wondering, would you consider being sexy a compliment, or would you find that demeaning?
Jane Fonda
Well, I think it's a compliment.
Burt
It is.
Jane Fonda
I'll tell you why I would consider it a positive. Because I was in my 60s, and I think it's good for other women and girls to hear that somebody in their 60s could be considered sexy. But it has nothing to do with your looks. Feeling sexy is what's happening inside you. And the more you own yourself and the more you bring yourself into the activity, the sexier.
Lindsey
At what age did you look at yourself and just say, okay, I'm okay?
Jane Fonda
60.
Lindsey
Was it at 60?
Jane Fonda
Yeah. Isn't that sad?
Lindsey
No. It's good that you got there because many women don't never give up.
Jane Fonda
It's never too late. I'm writing my memoirs and it's a happy ending.
Burt
You know, we were talking about, you know, self image and stuff like that. And you had. You struggled with bulimia for 20 something years.
Jane Fonda
Yeah, you got it. Yes. And I'm writing all about that, too.
Burt
When you've struggled with bulimia for 20 something years, what's the final straw? Where you go, okay, it's time for me to get some help here.
Jane Fonda
For me, everybody's different. For me, the final straw was I either continue with my disease or I die. And I don't mean necessarily die physically, but I had two children, I had a marriage. I was living a life that I felt had meaning. It was important. It was, you know, I was very socially active, and I could either continue doing that and be effective or not. I had to make a choice. Go for the light, go for the darkness.
Burt
We're talking to Jane Fonda this morning. If you weren't part of the whole Hollywood scene and doing the acting thing. Do you think that that struggle with bulimia would have ever happened?
Lindsey
Yes.
Jane Fonda
Absolutely. You know why? Because I was never told that I was okay. I was. Only time my parents ever commented on how I looked was to tell me I was too fat. I was never fat. You know, I was too this, I was too that. Parents have to let their children know that they love them unconditionally, no matter what. To be dismissed because of how you look, it makes you feel that you have to prove yourself. You have to be perfect. And, you know, when I talk about it, what happened to me at 60, what happened at 60 was I learned good enough is good enough. You don't have to be perfect.
Burt
Well, Jane Fonda, thank you so much for coming in. I mean, it has just been a treat to have you in here and an honor.
Jane Fonda
I wanna make an announcement.
Burt
Okay.
Jane Fonda
I am so proud to be the first to tell Atlanta and the first to publicly congratulate Bert and Stacey. They are expecting their first child in early November.
Tom Dumont
Yes, we are.
Burt
Yes, we are. Yes, we are.
Jane Fonda
Congratulations.
Burt
Thank you.
Jane Fonda
And they're standing, both of them, right here.
Burt
We found out weeks ago, but we had a bit of a sc.
Lindsey
We went in for our first doctor's appointment. They had seen something else in my uterus with the baby. They weren't sure what it was, so my doctor right away sent me to a specialist, and it was some kind of hubcap.
Lisa
It actually turned out to be a burst. Headphones.
Burt
I won't tell you how they got.
Lindsey
It's okay, though.
Jane Fonda
You're all right.
Lindsey
Yeah. What he really thought was that it was a fold in the placenta. But he also said it could possibly be a molar pregnancy. And that's real scary.
Jane Fonda
That means when your tooth is pregnant.
Lindsey
Yeah. So we just went back on Monday and it wasn't there. So he said the fold worked itself out. Perfect pregnancy. Be sure to tell everyone and be happy.
Jane Fonda
Are you gonna want another flavor?
Lindsey
I didn't want to, but Bert's been begging, so I think. He doesn't ask for much. So I think.
Jane Fonda
See, there you go. There you go. He won. I'm just kidding.
Burt
Let me tell you the overall scheme of things. It's Bert, one win and about 55 losses.
Jane Fonda
Bert, why don't you find out and not tell her?
Burt
I would do that, but she thinks that there's no way I could keep it a secret.
Lindsey
Oh, my God. No, you do great.
Burt
You should. Yeah.
Lisa
Because, you know, what if you slip up and go, how's my little boy? Doing. Then the next day, you go, how's my little girl?
Burt
You.
Lisa
You could make Stacy insane. She's already gonna be all hormonal and crazy.
Jane Fonda
Can I tell you about my grandson?
Burt
I'd love to hear.
Jane Fonda
Okay. We saw. I think it was the second time we went in to see the sonogram, and my daughter did not want to know the sex. Okay. You know, I was saying to the nurse, can you tell from the sonogram what sex it is? And she said, not really. You know, on rare occasions, if it's a real stud muffin was the word she used. And suddenly I looked at the sonogram, and, I mean, if that's not a stud muffin, it's a third leg. So I didn't say anything. My daughter went out of the room, and I said to the nurse, am I seeing what I think I'm seeing? You bet.
Burt
Really? Wow. So I knew early on, they've already.
Lisa
Seen the baby's nose.
Burt
It's true.
Lisa
So.
Burt
Actually, that's true. We. We got the pictures back the other day, and here's one thing. You know, when Stacy was telling you that, you know, they found something in the picture that just didn't quite look right. And, I mean, I'm talking about the molar tissue.
Lisa
She just. She just got a profile shot of you, Burton, and got that joke.
Burt
And it was amazing to me because I was. I'm pretty nervous about having a child, but once they tell you that there's a possibility that you will not have the child, it's amazing how quickly I became so attached to that picture.
Lisa
Right?
Burt
Yeah. It really was amazing. Yeah.
Lindsey
I couldn't believe, like, we'd only known two weeks, and all of a sudden I was like, I don't care. I know I can get pregnant, but this is what I'm having.
Jane Fonda
Yeah, I know.
Lindsey
Nothing is going to be wrong. It's going to fix itself. I mean, it was like. I just couldn't. It was bizarre.
Lisa
Yeah.
Lindsey
Never experienced anything like that.
Burt
Well, thank you for making that announcement for us.
Jane Fonda
Congratulations. I hope everything goes.
Burt
It'll be great. Thank you.
Lisa
And you'll have to come back in when little Jane Fonda Weiss is born.
Burt
The Bird show, when no Doubt stopped by Atlanta, we had a chance to sit down and talk with him. The thing we didn't realize before the interview is Gwen Stefani has just a bit of a potty mouth. So when did you guys get in Atlanta?
Tom Dumont
What time did we get in, Tony?
Burt
4:00 in the morning, man.
Lindsey
It was late.
Burt
That's Early. Early. Damn. Where did you fly in from? Is there another festival before this?
Tom Dumont
Yeah, we did a festival in Nashville last night. Actually. Garbage was there as well.
Burt
Oh, yeah.
Tom Dumont
Then we just drove. Drove in. Four hours later, we were in bed.
Burt
Which one of these. These bands at these festivals will you just not miss. You have to see, because we saw you up there on stage when Garbage was playing. You look like.
Tom Dumont
I love Garbage. I love Shirley. The girl is hot, you know, and we've actually been friends for years. And we email each other and we have so much in common. And, you know, she's just a cool chick.
Burt
Let's get to chat rooms. There's like a rock and roll chat room that you guys get. Putting it together. It's very exclusive. Is it? There's only a few of us in there. I want the password.
Lisa
Do you guys read, like, when stuff's on the Internet and stuff like that about yourselves? Do you guys ever go on and log in and read your own stuff, like, message?
Tom Dumont
Yeah, I go through waves of where I'll totally go in there and I'll be kind of addicted to it. And then people really piss me off. They're really. No, no, they just. Basically, they like to go in there and complain a lot. And sometimes I think that it bums us out.
Lisa
You know what I'm saying?
Tom Dumont
There is obviously some amazing kids in there and all that stuff, but you.
Burt
Know that it's the rest of the guys in the band that are actually posting on there.
Tom Dumont
Sometimes it is a bummer. I mean, we are only human beings, and it does suck to be criticized. And, you know, I just like to go in and read the good stuff.
Burt
Do you have a pretty thin skin about that stuff or do you just let it roll? It's pretty thick at this point.
Tom Dumont
It's pretty thick. Yeah. But, I mean, it kind of deters me from wanting to go in there and chat. I used to go in there all the time and just talk, and then no one would believe it was me, and then I'd be really pissed off and storm out.
Lisa
You guys, what do you guys. How often do you guys respond to what people post on there about you?
Tom Dumont
You know, Tom Dumont, our guitar players. He's really actively involved in posting all the time. We have a question and answer thing on there, and he goes in and answers all the questions. And, you know, when I got sick, I wrote and posted sorry to everybody that I got sick, but it's all your fault anyway, so.
Burt
So you. I saw on the. On your website today that Somebody's been, like, counterfeiting backstage passes.
Tom Dumont
Yeah.
Burt
Yeah.
Tom Dumont
Which is kind of scary because you never know who could be back there.
Burt
Right. Well, look at us. Yeah, we're not really with the radio station. Are these festivals fun for y'?
Tom Dumont
All? It is really fun. Yeah, it's really fun.
Burt
Definitely. The best part is being able to watch all the other bands play, you know? Right. It's good.
Tom Dumont
It's challenging, too, because you know that everyone's not there for you, so you kind of have to win people over.
Lindsey
We.
Tom Dumont
We've been doing that for years, so we like doing that, you know, it's in our blood.
Lindsey
I don't think I'm by the line to say that you're probably the biggest band here this year at Music Midtown. I think you probably are what everybody wants to come see and are sticking around for Sony.
Burt
I don't know if we're the biggest band. I think we're the biggest drinking band.
Lisa
When did you guys realize you were a big band?
Tom Dumont
You know what?
Burt
I think the biggest.
Tom Dumont
The big turning point for this band was that we were always a live band for nine years, and then we got on the radio, just a girl got on the local station, and it was like, oh, my God, we are on the radio. Before that, we were a live band. We had a really huge, like, cult following for years, and people always came to the show. We were always successful in that way. But then we would play our single, and it was totally different because you had something to really connect with audience, too. It's really, really cool.
Burt
Have you guys watched your own behind the Music?
Tom Dumont
Yeah.
Burt
Have you? Yeah. But after you watch it, like, 20 times, it's unbearable, I bet. Is it all true you're like that? I did not say that.
Lisa
I'm pretty much over that.
Burt
Yeah, we.
Tom Dumont
I think we think it turned out pretty all right, you know, considering it's like, you know, 15 years of our lives squeezed into 40 minutes. Pretty good.
Lindsey
So as time goes on, as you do more things, like when you went to Jamaica to cut this album and stuff, they come to you again and said, we need to add a little more to your behind the Music.
Burt
They just did the Deeper show. Did you see that? VH1 did the show called Deeper, and it kind of captures us in the moment is when we were on tour with you, too, so they got to see us, like, really just hanging out and partying and just, you know, kind of in the moment kind of thing. It was a good follow up to behind the Music. How does the whole Thing work where they tell you, you know, when somebody asks you to go on tour with them, like, you two, how does that whole process work? Because I imagine it's like Bono calling you up and going, hey, I got an idea. Why don't you open for us?
Tom Dumont
Bono did call me up, though.
Burt
Did he really?
Tom Dumont
Yeah. He called me up to sing on his benefit record for the AIDS charity.
Jane Fonda
He did?
Tom Dumont
What's going on?
Burt
Were you doing the same thing to him that they were doing to you in the chat rooms? No, this is not Bono.
Tom Dumont
No, it's pretty crazy. It was really exciting because we were actually in London and we were mixing our album, and he called us at the studio and, hey, well, what are you doing tonight? We're going out. He's like, okay, we'll meet you over there. And we seriously went to a bar and got trashed. Like, just trashed together. It was.
Lindsey
He had to leave.
Tom Dumont
Like, he. He left and he was really pissed at it the next day because he got so wasted and we didn't. I didn't mean to. I just wanted to be polite and keep filling the things for him, you.
Lindsey
Know what I mean?
Tom Dumont
It was like, he's Irish, you know.
Lisa
He'S supposed to be drinking.
Tom Dumont
Yeah.
Burt
He should be able to hold his liquor.
Lisa
I don't know if you've heard the rumors, but people say you're pretty hot and guys are freaks. So what? What has a guy done in an attempt to get close to Gwen Stefani?
Tom Dumont
Honestly. Honestly. Honestly. Never get picked up on or have guys coming up.
Burt
I think you're pretty well protected on the road.
Tom Dumont
Yeah.
Burt
Does it bother you with, like, you know, like, when you see women with the I love Gavin shirts on? That must be weird.
Tom Dumont
I think it's great, you know, I mean, everybody wants to be loved, and he's hot as hell, and he deserves for every girl to want him because he's God.
Burt
Those are words my wife will never say.
Lindsey
He performed yesterday. You're performing today? Do you guys get to watch each other?
Tom Dumont
No, I haven't seen him in, like, months and months. I saw him at Easter for two days, and then he surprised me yesterday, and he said, get your hotel room, quick. And that's all he said. And I. So I came off stage and we. We drove and he was there.
Jane Fonda
He stayed?
Lisa
Yeah.
Tom Dumont
And then he flew out this morning, so I got to see him for a few hours last night.
Burt
Did you guys do it? Just kidding.
Tom Dumont
That's funny.
Burt
So how.
Tom Dumont
We're not married yet, dude.
Burt
Okay, I understand.
Lisa
That's Gwen Stefani.
Burt
She's a role model. So how does that. If you're not seeing each other for months, how often do y' all talk?
Lindsey
We talk every day.
Burt
Oh, you do? You just haven't seen him in months?
Tom Dumont
Yeah, I just haven't seen him because we're both on tour the whole time, but seven days and I get to see him again. We're going to Europe, so.
Burt
Oh, fun.
Tom Dumont
Excited.
Lisa
Nice.
Burt
Do you get to enjoy any of Atlanta while you're here, or is it get in, get out Today is get.
Tom Dumont
In, get out, basically. Huh. We enjoyed the Ritz Carlton a little bit, and now we're here. So we're gonna be going tonight right after the show.
Burt
Have a great show.
Tom Dumont
Thank you.
Lisa
Thank you, thank you.
Burt
The bird show. This here great example of turnabout is fair play because this guy was too much of a coward to tell this woman in the office that she had a big time smelly foot problem. So he had us do it for him. Well, she got the last laugh because the tables got completely turned around on this guy.
Lindsey
Hey, Mary.
Lisa
Hi.
Lindsey
Hey, Mary, it's Melissa. How are you doing today?
Lisa
Good.
Lindsey
How are you? I'm doing fine. Listen, I have for you. You have won it before. You can buy it. Take us to John Mayer at hi Fi buys. All right, But I tell you what, There. There's a catch. Now, if you agree to take these tickets, in exchange, we have a secret that we have been told by one of your co workers that we have to share on the air.
Lisa
Oh, wow. Okay.
Tom Dumont
So do you.
Lindsey
Will you accept the tickets?
Lisa
Yeah, I'll accept the ticket.
Lindsey
All right.
Tom Dumont
All right.
Lindsey
So you went.
Burt
Got it. Taking door number two, too. Yeah.
Lindsey
Win it before you buy John Mayer. Okay, Mary, here is the exchange. Here's the secret. And we had a co worker, and it was. It was totally anonymous. Okay. So even if you ask who the co worker was, I don't know who it is, but the co worker called a little concerned because they say that during the day, you know, you kind of, you know, relax a little bit and you decide to take your shoes off at that point, and they're saying that the. The hygiene in the foot area is a little less than desirable.
Lisa
Oh, wow.
Lindsey
And so, yeah, and it was apparently enough that they. They gave us a call and wanted us to give you a call, and.
Lisa
They wanted to put this on the radio.
Lindsey
Yeah, because I, you know, I guess that they just didn't feel comfortable enough coming to you and. And telling you about this.
Lisa
Huh?
Tom Dumont
Do you.
Lindsey
I mean, is it something that. That you see where they're coming from, or is it something that's. I mean, completely takes you by surprise, huh? Well, I'm sorry.
Lisa
I don't know what to say. I. They want this on the radio.
Burt
Well, the good news is we've got very low ratings. Very low.
Lisa
Oh, wow. So no matter what I say, can I still take the tickets?
Lindsey
Oh, yeah, absolutely. The tickets are yours.
Burt
It's all yours. So just go to the concert, put your feet up and enjoy yourself. I think that they were just more nervous than anything else to tell you themselves. And it's really kind of. It's become kind of a big deal in the office, and nobody knew how to break it to you, so they.
Lisa
Wanted to break it to me on the radio. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Lindsey
But you got tickets.
Lisa
Well, you know, I mean, I guess you can keep your tickets because that's not cool, isn't it?
Burt
Let's not do that again.
Lindsey
Yeah, that's not a very good. Yeah.
Lisa
Well, how did that even happen?
Lindsey
That did not go over.
Burt
Hey, you.
Lindsey
Yeah, Eric. How's that feel?
Lisa
Coming up on feet up and enjoy the show.
Burt
At least she knows.
Lisa
Sorry. That was hilarious.
Burt
She must be so. She must feel so embarrassed right now.
Lisa
Yeah, you know, I kind of feel bad, but I don't think she should take it that seriously. I mean, it's. It's kind of just, you know, whatever.
Lindsey
You gotta understand, it's a woman. You're telling a woman that. Yeah. So why don't you go. The problem with everybody in the office, it's a big deal. And now you're laughing.
Lisa
So why don't you go laughing at him, though, man? Okay, that was hilarious.
Lindsey
Yeah. So why don't you go up and talk?
Jane Fonda
Yeah.
Lindsey
If it's not. If she shouldn't take it too seriously. So why don't you go up and tell her that today?
Lisa
Oh, I guess I will. Because he doesn't have John Mayer tickets.
Lindsey
Because, you know, think about, you know, you're sitting in the office, and now you're paranoid that everybody in the office thinks your feet smell. Yeah, that girl's gonna be mortified.
Lisa
You don't have to take your shoes off to have a good time, so she's gonna have to just kind of keep them on, I guess.
Lindsey
All right.
Burt
All right. Well, she got the message. So Mary called us back, and she said, you know what? Since he called about me, I think it's only fair that I call about him. And that's why she's back on with us. Okay. Mary, what's up? You want us to call him?
Lisa
Oh, my God. Oh, yeah.
Burt
All right.
Tom Dumont
It almost sounds like you're saying Mary.
Burt
Mary. This is only fair.
Lisa
This is Eric.
Burt
Does he know we're calling him quotes?
Lisa
He doesn't have to know.
Burt
She didn't know.
Lisa
By the way, just for the record, I think this is. Hello?
Burt
Hey, Eric. Hey, hey, it's Burton, everybody, and we're back on the air right now.
Lisa
Hey, what are you doing?
Burt
How you doing?
Lisa
Hey, Eric. Yo, Eric. Yeah, it's Mary here. Hey, Mary. Or should we call you Nick? Nick.
Burt
Uh.
Lisa
Oh, yeah. What?
Burt
Hey, Mary called us back, and she said that she had something she wanted to tell you, and she thought it would only be fair to do it on the radio since you did it to her today.
Lisa
Oh, I want to know. You know, why don't you just tell everybody? While everybody used to call you Pencil Nick.
Jane Fonda
Oh, my gosh.
Lindsey
Oh.
Burt
Hey, hey, Nick.
Lisa
Yeah, I don't know, but, Nick, just go ahead and put your feet up and relax.
Burt
Now, Mary, did somebody tell you that in the office?
Lisa
Oh, we've all got a glimpse. Yeah, well, that's different. I mean, it's not the same thing at all. Oh, really?
Burt
Yeah.
Lisa
I mean, this doesn't affect everybody around me. It doesn't make everybody sick around me.
Lindsey
I mean, Mary, how did everybody get a glimpse?
Burt
Yeah.
Lisa
Oh, my God. We went on vacation this one time, and we all went together. It was kind of like a retreat to learn more about, you know what I mean, our products and the staffing and inventory.
Burt
Right. It's like the thing that boss does, like to get everybody to bond together, that kind of thing.
Lisa
But I've never seen anything so small in my life. I mean, I've seen. You know what I mean? Sometimes you're small, but, you know, you're full. He's empty. Empty. And then we went around for years and said, hey, Pencil Nick.
Burt
All right, let's go ahead and. We know what the name is now, so that's probably fine.
Lisa
Yeah, you've done enough.
Burt
Yeah. Okay, Nick.
Lisa
Yeah, Nick, we're gonna go ahead and.
Burt
Inch away from this topic here.
Lisa
Yeah, that's pretty funny. You know, at least I don't make everybody sick around me.
Lindsey
All right.
Lisa
You know, I mean, that's nasty. Wash up your. Your feet. All right. All right, Nick. All right, Nick. Well, you know what? You know, it's funny, Nick, when you were calling her, you were just like a big softie. Now you're so hard and edgy.
Burt
It was all funny.
Lisa
He's not that hard.
Jane Fonda
And Ed.
Lisa
Just for the record, if.
Burt
All this that we're hearing is true.
Lisa
She can wash her feet, right?
Tom Dumont
She can buy odorators.
Burt
Okay. All right, Mary, do you feel justified now?
Lisa
Oh, I feel justified. I'm gonna have a better day. You know, I'm just gonna kick back, take off my shoes and chill out with pencil. Nick, she can't say it enough, can she?
Burt
Nick, now the slate is clean. It's even, right?
Lisa

The highlights include a dramatic “War of the Roses” call, a candid interview with Jane Fonda about self-image and activism, banter with No Doubt’s Tom Dumont about the band’s journey and fame, and a comedic office prank that takes an unexpected turn. Throughout, the cast keeps things playful and real, inviting listeners to laugh, vent, and relate.
[01:44 – 09:41]
Situation: Lisa calls the show suspecting her boyfriend Bob of cheating (again), recounting how she once caught him in bed with someone else. The hosts set up a “War of the Roses” segment to test his fidelity.
Highlights:
Notable Quotes:
Outcome: The call confirms Bob sent the flowers to Lisa, but his tepid affection leaves unresolved doubts and more laughs.
[09:41 – 13:29]
Concept: The team orchestrates a prank where Phil must wear a dog training shock collar while ordering food at Chick-fil-A. The hosts remotely zap him anytime they say the code phrase “small hot chocolate,” aiming to make him react as he tries to maintain composure.

Funny Moment:
[16:16 – 23:17]

[23:20 – 29:49]

Lisa on catching her boyfriend:
“I came home from work one day and, like, caught them in bed together… It totally smelled like sex. It was so bad.” [02:54, Lisa]
Jane Fonda on self-worth:
“You can be a very strong and powerful woman… but behind the closed doors of your intimate relationship, you can lose your voice.” [17:38, Jane Fonda]
Tom Dumont on internet trolls:
“We are only human beings, and it does suck to be criticized. I just like to go in and read the good stuff.” [24:54, Tom Dumont]

The Bert Show remains a blend of the irreverent and the sincere. The hosts crack jokes, tease each other, and their guests, but also create space for honest, sometimes vulnerable conversations—be it Jane Fonda’s lifelong journey to self-acceptance or the lingering aftereffects of betrayal in relationships. Sit back for the laughs, surprising truths, and the abiding spirit that reminds you: you’re never the only one navigating life’s messiest moments.
