Caller or Guest (Wendy)
So I need to know if I need to stage an intervention or whether I have a place to stage an intervention with one of my friends who I have a feeling may be a bit of an alcoholic. And it's one of my really close friends. And I'm just really concerned at this point because of something that happened just last weekend.
Co-host or Panelist
Bert, we brought you in here because we love you and because we care about you.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
No, I mean, of course.
Bert Weiss
What if we did that? We've got a letter to read to you, Bert.
Co-host or Panelist
We've all written down
Panelist or Expert
Stacy, Gigi, everybody
Bert Weiss
starts watching some of those people on that list that you just named. I would have a letter myself to read back to them.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
I mean, of course, we love to go out, and we love to have a few cocktails here and there, but it seems like this weekend, it just got way out of control. And even before this weekend, we had a party that we went to, and it just got out of control. The drinking started with, like, one glass of wine, and then it became two, and then it became. She had no idea we were even at the same party, and I ended up having to drive her home, and she threw up. But this weekend completely changed my thought process, and. And I really feel like I need to drive her to a clinic or just at least express it to her, but I'm not sure really how to.
Bert Weiss
So she's going to a point where she's, like, blacking out whenever she drinks.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
Well, this weekend, she did blackout, and this is probably maybe the fifth or sixth time that she's had a blackout, and she's only 22 years old.
Panelist or Expert
The fifth or sixth time, like, ever. Is there. Six time that you've known. You guys have been friends?
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
She's told me about.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Okay.
Bert Weiss
You said she's how old?
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
She's 22.
Panelist or Expert
22.
Commercial Announcer
Okay.
Bert Weiss
That does change things a little bit.
Commercial Announcer
I mean.
Bert Weiss
I mean, you could play a game of alcoholic or 22 years old, right?
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
Yeah.
Panelist or Expert
And maybe that's. I mean, because I could see where you'd be conflicted because it's like, well, you're 22. You know, like, it's different if you have six or seven blackouts and you're 40. But if you're 22, I could see where you're like, well, but still, that's a lot of blackouts. Yeah.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
If. I mean, one is, like, normal. Like, everybody has their one. I mean, I know it's not normal.
Panelist or Expert
Or a couple, Burt. Okay.
Bert Weiss
You know, it's all relative.
Co-host or Panelist
But not one. One per what? What are we looking? Six months, three months?
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
Like, even lifetime. Like, I think I've, of course, blacked out maybe one time, but that was when I was way younger, but I haven't blacked out since, and I know my limit, and I know.
Co-host or Panelist
Define blackout. Like, she's.
Panelist or Expert
I was gonna say that, too. I don't really know exactly what I'm
Co-host or Panelist
passing out on the floor of the club.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
Not passing out.
Caller or Listener
You.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
You're very awake, and you're aware. It's almost like an unconscious. But you're awake, and it's just because of alcohol. You have no recollection of what you've done the night before. But you're still up, and people can. Were doing.
Bert Weiss
I need to loosen that definition a little bit.
Co-host or Panelist
Yeah, hold on. I've got to do an intervention, too. Dear Jeff, I called you here because I love you, because you are me.
Bert Weiss
What happened to you? What happened to her last weekend? That has really got you thinking. Okay, she really needs help.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
She called me the next morning because she had no idea she even woke up at her mom's house. So she woke up at her mom's house. The first phone call she made was to me. She's like, wendy, I have no idea how I even got here. And I'm like, okay, explain to me what happened. She had went and had a couple margarita margaritas before she went out with her mom and a couple of friends afterwards and went out to a nightclub. So she had two margaritas and a shot. That's all she could remember. And she's like, I've been getting all these phone calls and text messages this morning on crazy stuff I was doing, and I was like, well, what were you doing?
Co-host or Panelist
Did you say she was out with her mom?
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
Yeah, she started out with her mom. Her mom ended up leaving her with her other friends because they were just going out and about and having a good time. Apparently, after that shot, she has no recollection of the rest of the night. She was yelling at bartenders to give her a bottle of vodka. She was yelling for shots, like, these are good friends at this point. Like, I've never even heard of this coming from her. Like, angry yelling, like, for alcohol. More alcohol, more alcohol. She apparently was dragged out of the club, was clawing her way to get back into the club to get more alcohol. When she was finally put into the car, tried to jump out of the window to go back into the club to get more alcohol, like, and apparently she.
Panelist or Expert
She doesn't remember any of that.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
She has no idea.
Panelist or Expert
Wow.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
She actually yelled at a good friend of hers, like, just cussed her out for no reason, calling her a crazy bee. And it's like, you're not a person I ever want to be around, and just telling all these good people around her that they're just not worth being around.
Bert Weiss
I really don't feel like I have. I mean, quite honestly, like, a very good access point here, because I was really such a heavy drinker and all my friends were such heavy drinkers when I was 21 or 22 years old that I don't know what the difference between being, like, an alcoholic and just being 22 would be.
Co-host or Panelist
Yeah, I vote I vote 22 year old girl.
Bert Weiss
I just don't know.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
I mean, but she doesn't act like this when we drink and we get drunk, you know, and I try to stay more sober than her just to take care of her, just to make watch out for her. She's never had that mean personality come out. She's never had this crazy like mean, like aggressive like behavior before. And I think this weekend it took it to a whole new level by being more aggressive, especially to people she loves.
Panelist or Expert
She's a fan like to me though that she's open to talking about it because she called you to say this is what happened. She already has confided in you that she was embarrassed about her behavior. She couldn't believe what she did, that she didn't remember it. So she's already sort of confessed at least that part of it to you. She probably was still buzzed when she made that phone call. So I wonder if sober she'd still be open to it. But it sounds to me like she'd be open and talking to you about it so that you could say, listen, like I think we need, you know, like I think you need to maybe change some things so that, so that it doesn't become a bigger problem.
Bert Weiss
I've never, I mean you just don't hear a lot of 22 year olds that confess that they're alcoholics. I think because of the age chances are pretty good that so many of
Panelist or Expert
us are sort of social, you know, environment that it's made like normal.
Bert Weiss
You can probably realize it by like 28 or 30 or something like that when you start losing jobs and stuff like that. I just don't know too many 22 year olds that say I'm an alcoholic and I know it. Unless they have a family history of it. You know, they saw it, they saw their parents.
Co-host or Panelist
Doesn't everybody in their not dismissing the behavior because it's very dangerous and it's scary. But doesn't everybody have a period in their lives where they ran hard?
Panelist or Expert
But I didn't blackout six or seven or eight times. I didn't black out every time I went out and I didn't have to get so violently drunk every time I went out at 22, 23, 24.
Co-host or Panelist
But I think, I don't know, I just think we're using the term blackout. I mean everybody has. If they go out and you have a big night out, I don't think it's unusual to have. Wait a minute, I don't even remember seeing him.
Bert Weiss
I can say for myself at 22. And I'm not saying I didn't have a drinking problem at 22. And I'm not saying I didn't have a drinking problem at 42, but at 22, I think every time I went out, I probably got. Not blackout drunk, but stupid.
Panelist or Expert
Well, I just think. But I see you know her better than we do. And if you're concerned that. I think it's instinctual, and I think that it is dangerous for somebody to not know how they got where they got almost every time they go out, like.
And it's a different attitude for a woman, too. That's incredibly more dangerous for Wendy's friend to do that than for bert. You at 22 to do that.
Bert Weiss
You know, identifying it is so tough at that age.
Panelist or Expert
Not knowing. Not knowing how she got home and all that stuff.
Bert Weiss
Here's Barbara. Good morning, Barbara. You're on The Burt Show, Q100. Hey.
Caller or Listener
Hi. I have a comment about your situation. I have a friend who is an alcoholic, and she keeps saying, oh, I need to stop. I need to stop. I need to stop. But deep down, she doesn't want to stop. And to Wendy and her friend, intervention wouldn't be the thing. Unless she wants to stop.
Bert Weiss
Do you hear your friend saying that? I gotta stop doing this.
Caller or Listener
I gotta stop doing it?
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
It's almost every time, like, the morning after we wake up, even going out, it's like, I can't drink anymore. I don't wanna drink anymore. And then we'll go out and it's more drinking. Even after that incident that happened this weekend, the next day, drinking.
Panelist or Expert
So she can't have a casual drink. She can't have one. She's either running for the finish line or none at all.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
Yeah.
Bert Weiss
So she identifies that, and she's not having a good time.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
Well, she's having a good time. I mean, it doesn't seem to bother her. I mean, except for that one incident. But then this week, it was drinking again.
Bert Weiss
Here's Allison. Good morning, Allison. You're on The Burt Show Q100.
Caller or Listener
Hey, how are you guys doing?
Bert Weiss
Okay. What's up?
Caller or Listener
One of the things you can tell your friend is once you reach the state of blackout drunk, each time you drink after that, it's easier and easier and easier to get to that point.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Really?
Caller or Listener
Yeah. I have a friend that eventually she got so bad that she. She woke up Easter morning naked in some guy's yard chasing his dog with an ax. And she'd had two Dr. Oh, geez. I used to have to go pick her up from bars. And when we finally got her help, one of the things the doctors were telling us is once you reach that blackout state, it's easier to trigger it every time. And the stuff they do gets crazier and crazier.
Co-host or Panelist
Did you just say that you picked her up Easter morning running through a yard?
Caller or Listener
Yeah.
Bert Weiss
Chasing a dog with an ax.
Panelist or Expert
Yeah. That's not normal.
Bert Weiss
Angie woods is on her way in here right now. Dog Whisper is going to have something to say about that.
Panelist or Expert
PETA is going to request that we subpoena these gangs.
Bert Weiss
Here is Emily. Good morning. You're on camera.
Caller or Listener
Good morning, guys. Love your show.
Bert Weiss
Thank you.
Caller or Listener
You know, Wendy, I think you're doing a great thing. I think that you are already seeing the signs in your friend that she has the definite potential to become an alcoholic. And you definitely should not ignore these signs.
Bert Weiss
How does the conversation start? Like, it's going to be probably uncomfortable for Wendy, although it may be easier because you say that even your friend is starting to identify it now. So what are the first words you use?
Caller or Listener
You know, just like when you guys are out one time, just ask her how she feels about when she goes out and she has to call people to recollect the night before. You know, if she has a problem with it, if she has any guilt. Ask her if, you know, the next day if she's embarrassed or, you know, ever feels any guilt or think she has a problem. And then Wendy can you can just say, you know, I don't know, you know, exactly what it is to be an alcoholic, but I have some concerns for you, and just see how she feels about it for herself.
Bert Weiss
How do you think she'd take that?
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
I see. I don't know, because every time I talk to her after the night before, she's like, oh, what happened? We have fun. I mean, there's no guilt there on her part. It's just we had a fun night drinking. The only time she ever felt guilt was that night that she got blacked out again.
Bert Weiss
Will she feel like you're attacking her or will she feel like it's coming from a loving place because you guys are like, I mean, tight, tight.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
I mean, I've. I've talked to her about her drinking, and if it's out of control and she doesn't think it's out of control, but I'm on the outside looking in and watching her, and I'm concerned, but she doesn't see the concern I have. I can tell her all day long to watch what you drink. Make sure. You're not over obsessing and it's like in one ear, out the other.
Panelist or Expert
I have two tidbits for you. I think one is that the next time you talk with her, you can say that we can still be friends and hang out and not drink, because I think that that's also the fear. So I would say maybe suggest the next time you guys out, go do dinner and a movie and do something that has nothing to do with alcohol and have a really good girl time. And then I would say my second suggestion is to take or take and borrow somebody's flip cam.
Co-host or Panelist
Oh, Lord.
Bert Weiss
Shocking.
Panelist or Expert
Next time you guys go out together and if she's gonna go there and if she's gonna go over the top and yell at the bartenders and whatever else, I think it would be hard to do. But you as a friend, just videotape.
Bert Weiss
It's like you pull a Hasselhoff. Remember when we got that video of Hasselhoff?
Co-host or Panelist
Didn't you want to do that at one point, Bert?
Bert Weiss
Yeah, I said to you guys, man, I want you guys to take the camera and video me when I get drunk, because I want to see what it looks like. But I think I sort of tempered my drinking before that happened. I think just the thought of it freaked me out.
Co-host or Panelist
Right.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
I think that's a great idea. And I don't know if we could ever do just dinner in a movie without a drink.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Really?
Panelist or Expert
Oh, it's not good.
Bert Weiss
Yeah, that's not good. I mean, at least you're coming from a loving place, and I think she'll understand that, you know?
Caller or Listener
Yeah.
Co-host or Panelist

Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
People don't love to help Atlanta.
Bert Weiss
Well, you will today with some pretty unusual ones. Hey Amanda.
Caller or Listener
Hey, good morning.
Bert Weiss
Good morning. You're on with Angie Woods. She is the dog whisperer from US Canine.
Caller or Listener
Well, my question is my dog has been eating her poop for like the last eight to nine months and vomiting it pretty much every day. We've tried a lot of different things. The powder from the vet putting it in her food. We clean it up, but she kind of just always is finding it.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
It's a really common problem.
Co-host or Panelist
Really.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
It really is. I mean, not like poop's not disgusting, you know, but so is rolling in dead things.
Bert Weiss
I mean, don't judge. You gotta come on here and judge.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
But there's a couple of different reasons. Dogs, you know, suffer from what's called corporephagia is the technical term for that. So, number one, many times they're bored.
Bert Weiss
Number two, do you know how bored a human would have to be to start chewing on his own poop?
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Yeah, but it's a pretty common reason why they do it.
Bert Weiss
What did you do? You were so bored. What did you do before you got to the eating your own poop? I don't even want to know.
Co-host or Panelist
I actually think once when I was looking for a dining room table, I stumbled across the Corpus Asia section of Craigslist.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Well, thank God we have thumbs. And we don't go that far.
Co-host or Panelist
Right.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
But the next biggest thing might be that we're a really ravenous kind of eater. I mean, do we, like, love our dog food?
Caller or Listener
Yeah, I mean, I think that she eats it very quickly.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Yeah. She's like an OCD eater almost.
Caller or Listener
Oh, yeah, you put it down. 3, 4 volts.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Well, almost always when I. When someone tells me they suffer, their dog suffers from this problem, the dog is really a ravenous eater. I mean, and as disgusting as it seems to we people, dog poop is recycled food.
Caller or Listener
Yeah.
Bert Weiss
So it's not hurting the dog in any way.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
It actually is not hurting the dog whatsoever. I mean, they are going to vomit it up every so often, but there's nothing that's going to be harmful whatsoever.
Panelist or Expert
So how does she correct the ravenous eating?
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Well, there is a whole technique behind that. And actually we have a new video blog, angiewoodsblog.com that we just launched last week. And we're gonna be covering things like this on there with actual video footage where you can see, step by step, how to handle issues. And this is definitely one problem we're gonna be covering.
Bert Weiss
Cause it's just so complicated. You couldn't answer it right here.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Exactly. Yeah.
Bert Weiss
All right.
Panelist or Expert
It'd take a long time.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
It would.
Panelist or Expert
Yeah.
Bert Weiss
That is one dog that is not licking anybody in the face in that house.
Co-host or Panelist
No. Gross.
Bert Weiss
Good morning, Deborah. You are on the Birch show with Angie Wood. She can answer any question you have about your dogs.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Good morning.
Caller or Listener
Hi. Love you guys. I wanted to know what I could do. I have a female dog that just had Pups six weeks ago. And the male dog kind of growled at the little pup when they were eating. So the female dog attacked the male dog. She hurt him pretty bad. And so since then I've kind of separated them and not letting the dog, the male dog, around the pup and the female dog, but I want to keep the little pup, but I don't know how to keep them from fighting and the female dog from attacking him again.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Okay, well, this is a. You're playing against mother nature by trying to have the male dog with the puppies right now.
Caller or Listener
Yeah.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
The female naturally would not let anybody near the puppies for, let's say, minimum three, four weeks.
Caller or Listener
Well, they're six, they're six weeks old now.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Okay, well, she's still protecting food.
Caller or Listener
I'm so, I'm sorry.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Yeah, she's, you know, a little bit in protective mode still. You know, I mean, even at six weeks, you know, they're, they're really, really young. So I mean, I would keep maybe him a bit separated while she's with the puppies until they're weaned and off to new homes.
Caller or Listener
Okay, okay, now what if I, what do I do if I want to keep one of the pups to keep her from, from attacking the female dog? Because every time the male dog gets around the pup, he kind of looks at it like he wants to growl at it, but yet he's kind of leery, afraid she will attack him again. And he's smaller.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Well, that's probably why she's attacking him, because he's behaving that way. It's not stable. Dogs correct behavior, that's not stable.
Bert Weiss
You got that, Deborah?
Caller or Listener
Okay, thank you.
Bert Weiss
Bye bye.
Panelist or Expert
It didn't sound like she got what she wanted.
Bert Weiss
That's not what I wanted you to say. All right, producer Carl, he's got a question. He's got a new dog also. Doberman Pinscher, I think. Right?
Caller or Listener
Yeah.
Bert Weiss
And they're real. I've know, I've heard that Dobies are, are really real stubborn.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
Hmm.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Well, sometimes, sometimes.
Bert Weiss
And this is the problem that I'm having. I have a three year old, I have other kids in the house, but I have a three year old. And at first, when we first brought her home, the dog was what, 12 weeks? Real small. The kids were all involved. Now that he's getting bigger, he's almost eye to eye. My daughter does not come on the ground anymore. She still loves the dog and everything, but she just purchases on the couch.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Is she afraid of him?
Bert Weiss
Yeah, she's kind of she's not scared of him, but she's just. Just nervous. And the thing that I've noticed is that the dog only responds to my voice. So I'll come to the house and I'll say no or whatever. He'll respond to me. But my kids are yelling at him now.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
So I'm just trying.
Bert Weiss
I'm just trying to find a way to.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
You're trying to get a balance back
Bert Weiss
exactly when I'm not there.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
What's he doing to the kids to make them nervous? Is he.
Bert Weiss
He's real jumpy. He's kind of Nicky right now.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
So doing that kind of thing is really disrespectful to your kids.
Commercial Voice
Right.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Okay. So learning how to correct him the right way. And if you've ever listened to me before, you may hear me talk about kind of give it a little tiny bump with your fingertips.
Bert Weiss
I've tried that.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
And hard, firm eye contact. And you and mom need to be the boss so that you can pass that on to the kids. Because if you're not, you can't pass it on to them. And when the kids are nervous, they're feeding him that energy. You have to remember a huge part of dog communication is energy.
Bert Weiss
So they're feeding off of him Joy,
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
and he shouldn't be jumping on them. I'm a really big believer that kids should mean zero, which in my world is like Zen. So anytime he comes to approach your children, he should not be allowed unless he's totally calm.
Bert Weiss
So just be real aggressive when I'm there.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Not aggressive.
Co-host or Panelist
Not aggressive, but firm.
Bert Weiss
Real firm while I'm there.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Well, you want to be firm instead. I always say it's benevolent discipline. You love him and you're not harsh, but you're really firm. Like, don't come near my kids like that. Kind of think how you would behave if somebody else were trying to treat
Panelist or Expert
your kids that way or bully them.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Yeah. You would step in and say back off.
Panelist or Expert
Because that way the dog is learning how to treat the children from. Absolutely, absolutely.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Which your children, if they come up dominant in the family. We never have a problem with dog knocking children over. They're always respectful. They can walk around with the cheese stick in the house and the dog is respectful of their space.
Bert Weiss
All right.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
I have a four year old grandbaby. She can walk through my pack of 60 dogs.
Bert Weiss
Is that right? No problems.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
They better part the Red Sea for her and they love her.
Bert Weiss
Okay, I've got one for you. And it's probably not going to sit well with You. Because it hasn't sit well with me for the last couple of weeks either. But it's actually corrected the behavior. But I don't like what's going on in my house right now. Okay, so we got this English bulldog a couple of months ago, and we've had English bulldogs before, and we got them because these dogs, they're great with kids. They're passive, they're stubborn, but they're trainable. They're just. They're great dogs. Right. Well, we've got the one dog that just will not respond to no. I mean, it's been really bad. We've brought trainers in the house. He is as stubborn as it gets. He's on the couch. He was jumping on the kids for a while. He was jumping on my wife for a while. Just wild. So we brought a trainer in, and we got a pinch collar to try to calm him down also. And that worked for a little while, but then he got stubborn again and started snipping at the kids. Like, I think he thinks he was playing with them, but he was really. Like, a couple of weeks ago, he, like, bit at Hollis's face. They'll do that.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
And you didn't call me to come help you?
Bert Weiss
Well, it's the same trainer that we've been using for years, so we're sort of in the same routine with the guy.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Gotcha.
Bert Weiss
Yeah, but this guy suggested that. He said it's in very, very rare cases. We'll end up training the dogs that are super, super stubborn. And we'll use a shock collar, which.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
I. I don't think it's necessary. No, it's not necessary.
Bert Weiss
Well, we started. We started using it last week, and it's worked well.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
I mean, wouldn't it work for you?
Bert Weiss
Um, yes, it would. Now, it's not. The dog never yelps or anything like that. Cause I'm real sensitive to this. I mean, this is. He doesn't yelp, but he has corrected the behavior, and it took about two days, and he's fine now.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Can you take the collar off and correct the behavior?
Bert Weiss
Yes. After two days, we did.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Good.
Bert Weiss
Now he's still. From time to time, will go back and do the other stuff, but I'm reluctant to use that thing.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
I hate it. Well, I mean, what I teach people, and it's not. I think there's a place for eco, but I think it's fairly rare. I typically use an E collar for dogs who, like, kill cats, you know, or bolting against six lanes of traffic. Something that's Gonna be a lifesaver. Typically not for something like this, because I want the discipline to come from you.
Bert Weiss
Right. Well, he's responding to me, but he doesn't respond to anybody else in the house.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Well, it's all about their energy and what happens. Many, many times they listen to the guys because think about what your energy is bigger. You're a man, you're more dominant. But I always tell the women, I'm not a man. It could be done. Okay. But it's learning how to center your energy up and empower the people in your house. Children can do it, but you have an English bulldog. I met him last time I was here. Remember? You just got him.
Bert Weiss
Yeah, he don't look like that anymore.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Mr. Cutie.
Bert Weiss
Yeah, Mr. Cutie Patootie. £65 now.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
He's a big guy. But, yeah, they are known for their stubbornness. They were bred for it. And so learning how to overcome that and really not let him outdo you and stay in really calm, and you should be able to correct him without the prong collar, too. I'm a fan of the prong collar because they don't choke the dog. They're actually very gentle, even though they look like medieval torture. And, you know, some people kind of give me an argument about that, but once you feel them and see them, you really can't argue with the fact. But I'm happy to show anyone, but.
Bert Weiss
Well, I may be giving you a call in a couple of weeks because I want to get that thing off of him.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
We can do it. Yep. We can do it.
Bert Weiss
Hey, Lacey. Good morning. You're on with Angie Wood. She is the dog whisperer.
Caller or Listener
Hi.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Good morning.
Caller or Listener
My dog, he's in California. I go down there every few breaks. I stay with my dad, and when I'm in the house, it was just me and the dog. He's really calm and everything. And he's calm, and he'll just lay down, and he'll only play when I want him to, but other than that, my dad will come in the house and he'll start jumping around and. And play and everything.
Bert Weiss
So he's cool when she's in the house, but as soon as she leaves, the dog gets kind of nutty.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Yeah, he's kind of excited when dad comes in. Well, obviously, dad represents excitement to him.
Bert Weiss
Or, you know what? How old are you, Lacey?
Caller or Listener
I'm 14.
Bert Weiss
You think you're able to own your own home yet? Because this may be your dad problem. I mean, because the dog's fine around you. You just May have to move them out into another house.
Co-host or Panelist
Well, two years ago she would have got financing, no problem. Now it's tougher. Two years ago they would have totally. They would have done a 40 year mortgage with no interest for the first 35 years, no problem.
Bert Weiss
So what are you saying? That is probably a dad thing. Like he's getting the dog all excited.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
He obviously represents excitement. I'm not sure what he's doing, but the first thing I would say would be have dad walk in the door and totally ignore him until he calms down. Okay, well, if you turn around. So see, jumping to a dog is a really dominant thing. Dominant just means bossy. Okay? And so if he's jumping on you, you actually have to address that. You have to kind of give him a little bump off because if you turn your back, you're yielding to him, you're saying, jump on me more.
Caller or Listener
Okay, if we have like guests over, he'll start like wrestling with my friends or.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Well, the best thing to do is ignore him.
Bert Weiss
So totally ignore him.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Totally ignore him and give him no attention. And he can only behave that way so long. If you just stand and hold your ground and not move and ignore him, he'll settle down.
Bert Weiss
Kids are tricky, man. With dogs, they really are tricky. But you have to sort of look at it like a pack mentality, don't you?
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
It is a pack mentality. Instinct.
Bert Weiss
The bird show.

Panelist or Expert
Okay?
Bert Weiss
She said that she's got this man of her dreams and this is the weekend that she's gonna tell him what's up. Okay, so let's find out if they've been friends, if this is someone she just met a couple of weeks ago or a couple hours ago. Hey Kim.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
Good morning.
Bert Weiss
You're on the voice disguiser.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Good morning. How are you?
Bert Weiss
Good, how are you?
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
I'm in love.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
I'm okay. I'm a little nervous.
Bert Weiss
This is a bold, bold move. Now, is this a friend that you've had for a very long time?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
This is someone that I met through work, but I've known him for about six months. I met him a long time ago, but it was very brief and even then I felt this spark. But obviously I Just sort of ignored it. And then in the past five to six months, I guess it's been six months, we've been working really closely together and just spending a lot of time outside of work together. And I just. Something has happened to me, and I can't. I try to ignore it, and I just. I just cannot get around the fact that something big has happened to me, and I can't get around the truth. And I'm very nervous about what to do with that.
Bert Weiss
We gotta squash some of this. This is going in. This is going in the opposite direction I was hoping it was gonna go. And I was thinking, here's a guy that I've known since I was 17 years old and I'm 30 now. We've got this great friendship, and this is the weekend I'm gonna tell him I love him, and he's gonna say, I love you back, and we'll be married by Tuesday. That's. That's not what we're doing.
Panelist or Expert
I'm clenching my teeth a little bit because I want to know more about the relationship outside of work. Are you dating? Are you monogamous? Are you.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
No, no, I'm currently. This is where it gets.
Co-host or Panelist
Oh.
Bert Weiss
Oh, no.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
I'm currently in a relationship of three years.
Bert Weiss
Oh, Lord. Melissa just threw her headphones off.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Are you kidding me? I live with my boyfriend, and he's someone I love very much, and he's a good man. I'm telling you, I did not go looking for this. This is one of those things that has just hit me, and I didn't realize, you know, I've been there. I've been happy for three years, I've been happy, and I've been, you know, well loved. And I'm. You know, it's only because I've been spending time with this person and that I've realized that there's been something that's huge that's missing. And it's just that feeling of being totally alive and really, really knowing that you're in love. And you know when it hits you, you can't ignore it. You can't deny it.
Bert Weiss
Okay, let's back up for a second. Let's squash this for just one second. You said you've been in this relationship with dude for three years. Did you feel the same way about the guy that you're living with right now that you feel about this guy? You've never been that excited about the
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
guy that I'm living with now. You know, I came to love him very, very holy. And I. I Never had that spark and I never had that huge sense of passion. But he was a good man and I loved him and we, you know, we work well together and I, I would never do that. Listen, I would never, I wouldn't hurt him for the world if it weren't for this thing that. I can't. I wouldn't put him through this.
Panelist or Expert
With your co worker. Do you know how your co worker feels about you yet?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
I don't know that. I mean, I think it's gotta be two sides. I can't imagine that I've created this on my own and I know I haven't. I don't know how he feels. So I don't know.
Panelist or Expert
Cause I actually know a story of a friend that this happened to maybe 10 years ago. She was in a long term relationship, had a longtime boyfriend. I think they were together maybe a couple of years. She met someone else and really started to have feelings for this other person and was just like, okay, I can't deny it anymore. So she went to her boyfriend and said, I'm having feelings for someone else. We're gonna need to break up. They break up and now she is with the guy that she started to have feelings for. They've been married for like, I don't know, however long.
Bert Weiss
So it worked out well.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
So it worked.
Panelist or Expert
She handled it right.
She handled it correctly, she recognized it correctly. And she said, the relationship I'm in currently is going nowhere. This is as far as it's gonna go. I have strong feelings for someone else. I'm just gonna be honest and tell him I have strong feelings for someone else. We need to break up. And now she is married, has a child and is all. Everything's all hunky dory with the other guy.
Bert Weiss
First of all, don't ever use the word hunky dory on show.
Panelist or Expert
But you know what I'm trying to say.
Bert Weiss
So I can hit delay if you don't want anybody to do it.
Co-host or Panelist
It's from the Hobbyville glossary.
Panelist or Expert
I'm going to see my family this weekend. It's already kicking in.
Bert Weiss
Let's see if these stories are parallel. Do you feel like you're in this relationship that's not going anywhere right now, that you're just going through the motions? You don't think there's an engagement or are you still in love with this guy?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
This is the part that's so confusing. I love the man, but I don't think that I am in love with him. And I don't, I don't but he
Panelist or Expert
can't be a backup.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
He's about to give up, and I don't want to give it up unless I have some kind of confirmation that this other man feels the way I do. It's a huge risk to take.
Bert Weiss
Yes, it is. All right, Lucy, Good morning. You're on the Burt Show.
Caller or Listener
I've been in a similar situation, and she, I think, needs to follow her heart, but before she does that, she needs to let the guy that she's with know, you know, that the feelings just aren't there.
Panelist or Expert
Agreed.
Bert Weiss
But she's not saying the feelings aren't there. She's just saying that she has stronger feelings for the other guy. Is that right, Kim?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I. Like, you're right. I've never felt this way about a guy before. The office guy. And I think he could potentially be my real soulmate. But. But if he doesn't feel the same way. I mean, I love my boyfriend, and I don't want to hurt him unnecessarily, you know, and for my own sake, I don't want to lose him.
Bert Weiss
You know, you can't have it all,
Caller or Listener
but you're trying to have your cake and eat it, too, and you can't. I mean, you owe it to your boyfriend.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Put him through that. If this man doesn't want to be with me, I mean, I can't even stomach the thought. But if he doesn't want to be with me, why would I put my current boyfriend through that kind of turmoil? When I'm happy with him, I love him. I don't understand why this has happened to me. I just know that I can't.
Caller or Listener
But if you were completely happy with him, then you wouldn't be having feelings for somebody else.
Bert Weiss
Agreed.
Panelist or Expert
And, I mean, why not let your boyfriend find his soulmate? I mean, if you're actually saying that somebody else is your soulmate. Yeah, I.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Because he thinks that I am his soul.
Panelist or Expert
Well, you don't think he's yours, though. And so I don't believe.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
I just didn't know.
Panelist or Expert
I mean, but he's not.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
He's not this guy.
Panelist or Expert
So I. I don't believe that. Even if you told this other guy and he said, no, I don't have feelings for you, and you go back to your boyfriend, I don't think you'll be happy. So I.
You know, I agree with that.
I'm a firm believer that you need to talk to your boyfriend about your situation, because, yeah, I think that this feelings for the other guy is a symptom. Of what's going on in your own relationship.
Bert Weiss
Your boyfriend, your three year boyfriend is now your backup plan. Because plan A now is have him
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
referred to that way.
Panelist or Expert
That's what he is.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
I never thought of him that way and I don't, and I hate to,
Co-host or Panelist
but then, yeah, if he ever found out about this, like, you know, you'd lose him. Like 10 years from now, you guys are married, you got two kids or whatever, and you say to him, hey, you gonna hear a funny story? Do you remember that guy that I, blah, blah, blah, and was friends with? Remember him? Oh, my God. Well, there was a time that would rattle the core of the relationship.
Commercial Voice
Sure would.
Bert Weiss
Hey, Rebecca, good morning. You're on Q100.
Caller or Listener
Hey, good morning, guys. I've actually been in the same situation before. And the only thing that I really hated about it was I didn't tell my boyfriend anything about it. I found out what the feelings were from the other guy first because in the end I didn't want to be alone and I didn't want to hurt my boyfriend either. I mean, because I was with my boyfriend for about 4 years and I did meet. I also met a guy that I was working with and we hung out after work, you know, grab drinks, you know, do whatever for probably about seven to nine months. And I thought I had that connection there. And I found out after I talked to him first, you know, he didn't like me that way. He just liked me as a friend. And, you know, I just stayed with my boyfriend, so I didn't go through all that pain. So I just, I think, you know, in my opinion, she shouldn't tell her boyfriend anything yet. She should find out first to be sure. So that way she doesn't have.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
That's selfish.
Caller or Listener
Lose everything.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
That's really selfish.
Panelist or Expert
Because she doesn't want to be.
Are you still with that boyfriend?
Caller or Listener
No, actually, we broke up.
Panelist or Expert
I mean, so it's like, I don't know, I just.
Co-host or Panelist
Yeah, she finds.
Panelist or Expert
I don't think you're gonna go. I don't think you can go in reverse. I completely agree with Melissa. I think your feelings have moved on to someone else. And it's not that they're gonna move back to your three year boyfriend because you're already done.
Bert Weiss
Like, what's gonna happen?
Panelist or Expert
The relationship has expired. For you to have these strong feelings for somebody else, that former relationship is over. It's done, it's finished. Let him, like Melissa said, let him go find his destiny.
Bert Weiss
Hey, Ann, good morning. You're on the Burt show. Hi.
Caller or Listener
Hey, you guys. I'm sorry. I'm just sitting here stewing. It's selfish. The thing is, you know, everything is always greener on the other side. It's always newer. It's always more attractive. Why not fix the problems that you have? Address the issue. You know, you're being selfish, holding onto this. What is this person that's doing it to you? How would you feel?
Bert Weiss
But she's saying you guys don't have any issues. Just what you're saying is that you feel stronger about this new guy than you ever have about the first guy. But in your opinion, there's nothing wrong with your current relationship, Right?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Yeah, I've been. I'm telling you, I've been very happy. He is a good man, and we are good together. I would never. I would never do anything to harm him or harm that, except that this thing has happened to me. I didn't choose for this to happen. It just.
Panelist or Expert
Neither did he, though.
Yeah. And if. I mean, in all honesty, if Katie said to somebody else, I think I have found my soulmate and I'm not it, then I would want her to let me go because I don't want to. Like Burt said, let's look at the perspective of your boyfriend. Your live in boyfriend.
He.
If he knew all this and he knew he was your backup plan, because that's really what he is right now, then.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
No, but it doesn't feel that way. I would never. I don't.
Panelist or Expert
I don't know why you're being so defensive. Because you're in this situation. Whether you chose it or not, you're in it, so you got to handle it. Right? And I think that the right thing to do is exactly what Jen's friend did. You got to talk to your boyfriend about the situation because it is not a perfect situation at home. You said you're not in love with him. You said yourself, I love him, but I'm not in love with him. Then why are you with him, Kim?
Bert Weiss
What did you call us for? Did you think that you were gonna call us and we were gonna go,
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
oh, this is such a romance?
Co-host or Panelist
Yeah, she called us. So we justify her story, and then she can move forward, but when we don't justify it, then they get all,
Bert Weiss
yeah, like you're fighting your position, but you called us for advice, so we're giving you the other side here, and you're not accepting.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
I think I'm just scared and I need to hear a sounding word. I mean, I feel like, again, the past few Months I've been trying to ignore it and trying to ignore it, and I'm like, God, am I crazy? I just. I think I just needed to say it out loud. I haven't told anyone. I haven't told anyone.
Co-host or Panelist
Thank you for that. I do appreciate you thinking of us for that.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Yeah, I mean, I just needed to say it out loud, and I needed to see how it felt to say it out loud. And I respect your opinion. I just.
Panelist or Expert
You chose.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
The more I talk about, the more I feel like these things only happen to you maybe once, maybe twice in a lifetime, and if you don't act on them, then it's to ignore this wonderful gift that's been given to you. And I just.
Bert Weiss
We're not even. Now, listen to the advice that you've heard today.
Panelist or Expert
Yes.
Bert Weiss
Most people are calling up, saying, if that's really the way you feel about it, then go for it. Then go for it. But do it in the right way. And the right way is to tell your boyfriend where your head's at because
Panelist or Expert
you chose to spend time outside of work with this guy. Like you. It's like it just happened to me. Well, you have chosen the path that leads to having feelings for this guy because you have not ignored him. You've spent time with him. And you just talked about the gift. You just talked about the gift that you've been given, and you're talking about this other man. You're not talking about the guy you're living with. That's a problem.
Bert Weiss
Here's Alyssa. We'll take one more call on this. Hey, Alyssa. Go ahead. You're on Q100.
Caller or Listener
Hey, I just think this is a phase and a fantasy, and she is just about to make the biggest mistake of her life. I really do. I think that it's just. I mean, she thinks she likes this guy because he's at work, and it seems all exciting, and, you know, it's just a fantasy. But really, I think she should stick with what she has because she knows that she loves him, and she's just gonna get sick of this guy at work if he actually does go for her.
Bert Weiss
On the other hand, you have the Jen Harvey story that she was telling us. You know.
Panelist or Expert
Yeah, my friend, this happened to her maybe 10 or 15 years ago. But she was telling me because I asked her how she and her husband met, and she said, actually, I was in another relationship. It was, like, maybe two or three years long. I can't remember exactly, but she said, I just started having really strong feelings for him. So so sure enough, she went back to her boyfriend at the time and said, listen, this isn't going anywhere. We gotta part ways. I have feelings for someone else. So they broke up, and now she is currently married to and has a child with the guy that she started having feelings for. But she handled it in the right way and in a really mature way, which I think when you're caught up with emotion and everything else, that not everybody makes great decisions. And so I always think of her story because I think I really commend her for making the right decision.
Bert Weiss
So this could be the biggest mistake of your life or the best decision you ever made. You don't know at this point, you just don't know.
Panelist or Expert
I don't think it's the biggest mistake of your life if because just the way you talk about your boyfriend, you're not excited by him. You said you're not in love with him anymore. I mean, relay. There are relationships that just are meant not to work, and so this may be one of them. And. But you need to do. You need to do the right thing. You just need to do the right
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
thing to face that possibility. After three years, I don't even know if I'm ready to face the possibility of letting him go. But I. I have to do. I have to know.
Panelist or Expert
You can't have both.
Bert Weiss
We are facing the possibility of having to let you go right now.
Panelist or Expert
And we're gonna do the right thing and do it.
Co-host or Panelist
We're letting you know, being honest with you.
Bert Weiss
And I'm telling you that we're gonna separate from you.
Panelist or Expert
We're starting to have feelings for another segment.
Bert Weiss
Kim, can we. Can we check back with you? I want to check back with you next week, though, and find out what you did. Did you talk with the guy at the office? Did you talk with your boyfriend? Did you not do anything? Can we check back with you next week?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
This weekend? So I don't know how. I'm not gonna talk about it. I don't know.
Bert Weiss
So you're supposed to do some work, like some side work with him this weekend?
Co-host or Panelist
No, no, she's seen him.
Panelist or Expert
She's having a date with him that she set up.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Date, but.
Panelist or Expert

Panelist or Expert
Okay.
Bert Weiss
And we're gonna put Maggie on the voice disguiser. Hey, Maggie.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Hey. How's it going?
Bert Weiss
Good, how are you?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
I'm good.
Bert Weiss
Okay, do you understand what like the definition of stepping into psycho is?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Yeah.
Bert Weiss
You tell us what it is then.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Okay, so I just was recently dumped by my boyfriend because he was with another woman and so he dumped me for this other woman. And so now I've kind of become a little obsessed with her and like checking her out online and googling her and Facebooking her and all that. I followed her on Twitter and she is actually married and is going to be at a restaurant with her husband tonight and I'm going to confront her. Oh. Oh boy.
Commercial Voice
Wow.
Bert Weiss
Wow. How did you find out where she was going to dinner and all that?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
She always posts where she's going and what she's doing.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
Does she post it on Twitter?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Yeah.
Commercial Announcer
Wow.
Bert Weiss
So you're gonna walk into the restaurant while she's there with her husband. You're gonna say, hi, my name is Maggie and
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
hey, you look so familiar. Don't I know you? Aren't you dating? And then I'll say my ex boyfriend's name.
Co-host or Panelist
Wow, nice.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
But what happens if she denies it? You gotta come in there with some
Co-host or Panelist
sort of proof, which she will. She'll go, no, I don't know that name. I don't know, Bert Weiss, whatever, blah, blah.
Bert Weiss
Yeah, that's a great point. Are you bringing in some proof?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
I don't Know that I really have proof. But I'm definitely gonna make her.
Panelist or Expert
I mean, if you're stepping into Psycho, it's gotta be a bigger than, you know, presentation than that sentence.
Bert Weiss
You're not embracing your crazy.
Panelist or Expert
Why should she believe you? Embrace your crazy or why would he believe you? I guess her husband.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Well, we do have a mutual friend, so, I mean, we can always call her on the phone.
Bert Weiss
This may backfire on you here. Cause you really don't have proof. And I've said this before, that if somebody told me that my wife was cheating on me, I'd need to see it. Cause I wouldn't believe it. So I need to see.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Yeah, well, I don't know. We'll see.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
Are there any like, Facebook message exchanges, Twitter exchanges between her and your ex boyfriend?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Yeah, I mean, he would be able to see that her husband would. If he. If he, you know, decided he wanted to look into it.
Caller or Listener
Yeah.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
Why don't you print those out and bring those with you?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Oh, yeah, I could do that. I could do that.
Bert Weiss
When he's got a plan for you,
Panelist or Expert
I'm helping you get crazy.
He will help you step.
Co-host or Panelist
Listen, we want to have you back out on Monday and it needs to be a good story. So listen to Wendy, okay? Listen to the sage advice of one Wendy.
Bert Weiss
Is this a hoity toity restaurant or is this just kind of a, you know, chilling place or what?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
It's a little bit like. It's like she posted that it's her date night, so they're going on a date.
Panelist or Expert
I love it.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
I need to be. I need to step into Psycho because I think you need to buy both of them drinks and attach the Facebook messages or Twitter posts to the drink and just like stay afar and just watch the action happen.
Bert Weiss
Where is this? Where is this coming from?
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
I don't know.
Panelist or Expert
It's called the XX chromosome, honey.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
That's what it's called.
Bert Weiss
She is amazing.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
I just came up with that.
Panelist or Expert
It's just.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
I guess I need to go to
Panelist or Expert
therapy and look into it.
Bert Weiss
I just found out today that you have a superpower you never knew before and you've just unleashed it.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
And I'm just nuts that if you
Bert Weiss
need help stepping in a cycle, Wendy can be your co pilot.
Panelist or Expert
I really always wonder why the government thinks men are the best, better planners and the good strategy guys. When it comes to military and spies, honey, hire women. We're much better at this.
Bert Weiss
But she didn't have a good plan. I mean, Wendy's fine, but Maggie didn't have A good one coming in here. Go ahead.
Panelist or Expert
I wanted to ask Maggie if she has a plan on how to get out, because I think stepping into Psycho, you always have the plan on how you're going to get in. But what's going to be your grand exit?
Bert Weiss
Exit strategy?
Panelist or Expert
You know,
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
I don't know. Maybe a drink in the face.
Bert Weiss
I'm not sure that's too much of a cliche. It'll never happen.
Panelist or Expert
But it is an ending. And then you walk out.
Co-host or Panelist
But then.
Panelist or Expert
But you don't want to just tell them and then be standing there like. Yeah. So then that's it.
Yep, here I am.
And now I'm just standing. I think the drink Restaurant.
Co-host or Panelist
I think the drink. I think you just. Yeah, go with one honest thing. So you go up to the woman and you're like, hey, are you. You know, whatever. Hey, Wendy, are you. Aren't you dating Bert Weiss?
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
But I want to say no.
Co-host or Panelist
Okay, so say no. No, I'm pretty sure you are, because Bird is my ex boyfriend. Don't save that. Send.
Bert Weiss
Don't save that.
Co-host or Panelist
I'm pretty sure that you are, and I'm pretty sure that these Facebook messages prove it. And I'm pretty sure that's probably not going to be cool with your husband. Bye. Bye.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
Oh, that's perfect.
Co-host or Panelist
Yeah, it is.
Bert Weiss
I think you're looking at this from the wrong angle, Maggie. You should feel lucky that based on what we've seen with, like, Tiger woods and Jesse James and all, the fact that he's only cheated with one woman is really not.
Panelist or Expert
How many men?
Bert Weiss
It's not even a big deal anymore.
Panelist or Expert
It was just one. I mean, look, it could be much worse.
Bert Weiss
Why are you overreacting?
Co-host or Panelist
He didn't cheat.
Panelist or Expert
Why are you being crazy?
Co-host or Panelist
He broke up with her, right, for this other woman? Or did he cheat on you with her cheating?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Both. Both.
Bert Weiss
Hey, Dane. Good Morning. You're on Q100.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Hey, I had a suggestion. Why don't she actually call the ex
Caller or Listener
boyfriend and suggest they go to dinner as friends at the same restaurant?
Bert Weiss
Oh, that would be g. That's another level right there. Very nicely played, Dane.
Panelist or Expert
But the boyfriend knows he's gonna be there. I mean, or she's gonna be there. If she's sitting on Twitter. The boyfriend who she's in a relationship knows where she's gonna be tonight.
Co-host or Panelist
Melissa. It's a good point.
Panelist or Expert
Say that's why it was not a good suggestion for my guy.
Bert Weiss
All right, Maggie, let me put you on hold, and we'll talk to you Monday morning around Same time. Okay.
Co-host or Panelist
Oh, Bert, that's a good idea.
Panelist or Expert
Selfie, Bert.
Bert Weiss
Dude, did my painkillers just kick in on you?
Panelist or Expert
No, Friday just kicked in.
Co-host or Panelist
Friday. It's gonna be 80 all weekend.
Bert Weiss
This is Sue. She knows she's stepping in a psycho this weekend. Good morning, Sue. You were on the voice disguiser
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
this weekend? Well, this guy, I was dating him for a year and he was dating his ex girlfriend at the same time. And he got engaged to her while we were still dating and broke up with me over Christmas. And they're getting married this weekend. And so I have all the priests that he cheated on her and. And so we're gonna put it all in an envelope. And right after they get married, one of my friends is gonna deliver it to her so that she's married to him. Cause I'd rather her get married and see what a loser he is after they're married.
Bert Weiss
Are you making this up? Are you serious?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
No, I'm dead serious.
Panelist or Expert
Why don't you deliver it rather than your friend?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Well, cause if he sees me, I mean, I'm going to be there, but she knows who I am.
Panelist or Expert
You're gonna be there?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Yeah, I'm gonna be with her. I'm gonna drive over there with her. But she knows who I am. Like, because he's cheated on her before with me and she just stays with him and she's stupid. So.
Panelist or Expert
Well, if. If she knows that already and she stays with him, then what? Why is this going to be shocking?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Well, she. He told her that I'm a psycho and I'm making it all up and everything, and she just like believed him.
Panelist or Expert
And so, yeah, delivering the top secret envelope is not going to, you know, prove differently, I don't think.
Bert Weiss
Well, she will prove that she's psycho in a different way, but she'll at least be correct. I mean, she'll at least say, look, I'm not nutty. In that way, this really did happen. But God just seems.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Should I deliver it myself? Would that make it better?
Bert Weiss
I mean, that's the gutsy way to do it.
Co-host or Panelist
You gotta be careful though. Cause remember you said a few minutes ago, you're not the psycho one, so you don't wanna be portrayed as psycho. When you deliver an envelope to a woman who just got married, she knows
Bert Weiss
she's stepping in a psycho. That's why she called.
Panelist or Expert
How is your friend gonna get to her?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Well, we know, like, we have mutual friends. Like, he went on vacation with me while he was dating her and his guy friends knew that they were Dating. Like, they were in a Facebook relationship together, and he was secretly dating me and telling me we were gonna get back together and stuff. And so I have all the hotel bills from all the times, like, he went on vacation with me, and his name. He paid for it.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Wow.
Panelist or Expert
But that didn't. That didn't answer how you. How your friend's gonna get to her.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Like, she's invited to the wedding.
Bert Weiss
Oh, really?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Yeah.
Panelist or Expert
So you're saying at the reception is when she plans to do this?
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Yeah.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Okay.
Bert Weiss
Wow.
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Yeah.
Bert Weiss
She said after the wedding.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Wow.
Bert Weiss
That's gonna be nasty. That's really nasty. But you're, like, you're 100% confident you're gonna do it. Because I think we've talked to people before that this sounds like a great idea. On Friday.
Panelist or Expert
Right.
Bert Weiss
But then you're like, ah, forget it. Over the weekend, I'll just let it go. But do you have. You have everything in a folder? You have it in the folder ready to go right now, so why
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
for about two months? Because my mom actually suggested doing it, and so I'm gonna do it.
Co-host or Panelist
Awesome.
Panelist or Expert
That's how you learn psychos from your mama.
Yeah. I just don't understand why you're so mad at her instead of him. Why you want to hurt her.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
I'm not mad at her. But. But he. I was dating someone, and he came to me and said he wanted to get back together while he still had a girlfriend. So I feel like I want to ruin his relationship, like he ruins one of my good relationships because I was stupid enough to fall for it.
Bert Weiss
Rebecca here has a suggestion for you. Good morning, Rebecca. You are on Q100.
Caller or Listener
Hi. My suggestion is, instead of delivering the envelope to the bride, deliver the envelope to her mother.
Co-host or Panelist
The bride's mother.
Caller or Listener
Yeah. Because obviously the bride, if she's saying she's, you know, she knows or she's suspected. You're right. It's not going to be a shock. But if you deliver it to the mother in law, that's not going to go over very well.
Bert Weiss
Rebecca, where is this evil coming from?
Panelist or Expert
This is actually really good suggestion.
Bert Weiss
It is smart, but I would.
Panelist or Expert
I would deliver to the mother in law before the wedding.
Co-host or Panelist
Right before the wedding?
Angie Woods (Dog Whisperer)
Yeah, right before the wedding.
Co-host or Panelist
Right before the wedding.
Panelist or Expert
Yes, right before the wedding. When she can do something about it.
Co-host or Panelist
And what about.
Bert Weiss
Yeah, that's good. I feel bad for it.
Caller or Guest (Wendy)
It's like a movie.
Bert Weiss
Well, sue, let's check back with you on Monday morning to see if you really did it. Okay. And what the repercussions were if you actually did it. Okay, Okay. I don't want to say have a good weekend because you're about to ruin somebody's wedding. So I guess we'll just check back with you on Monday. Okay.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Okay.
Bert Weiss
All right. Don't go anywhere. I want to put you on hold. We'll get your phone number.
Caller or Guest (Kim/Maggie/Sue)
Okay.
Bert Weiss
Hold on.
Caller or Listener
Ouch.
Bert Weiss
Ew.
Panelist or Expert
At first, some reason I don't think she's gonna follow through with it.
Bert Weiss
I think it's in your head. It sounds like a great plan. You even may put the folder together. But then when it comes to execution time, you're like, I just can't do this.
Panelist or Expert
I'm just laughing because most people right now trying to do their last minute taxes and getting receipts and their envelopes to take to their accountant and she's doing all these receipts and hotel receipts
Co-host or Panelist
for what if she brought the wrong envelope and open it up and it's like, what is this? You made a donation to the Salvation Army? Who cares? Get it?
