The cast dives deep into three main topics: the pros and cons of becoming a vegetarian (and the culture around it), a headline-making interview with Nicole Forrester about her alleged one-night stand with Josh Duhamel, and a lively debate on appropriateness in children's Halloween costumes, rounded out by a quirky segment involving a “baby gender predictor.” The tone is open, playful, and, at times, deeply personal.

[Carl]

The bird show.

[Melissa]

I've always been curious about the idea of becoming a vegetarian. Now I'm not a big cook, so I know that that takes a lot of discipline to be a vegetarian because you can't necessarily just go out and get stuff to eat. And I've known vegetarians who actually gained weight being a vegetarian because they just focused on the pastas and you know, the very heavy carb type of foods. However.

[Jen]

Or junk food.

[Melissa]

Or junk food, exactly. But the problem I have with vegetarianism sometimes with the vegetarians. Okay, anybody that you might even bring it up to, because it's almost a comparison that Katie and I bring up about new money. Like anybody has new money, has to show it out and almost has something to prove, you know, where somebody from old money, you can't really tell that they come from old money because they're so used to money they don't care. Right? Well, almost the same with vegetarianism because if you Become a vegetarian. Then all of a sudden, it's almost as if you have learned the secret of life. And it's not that you just want to bestow it on people and be nurturing and, you know, like, want to introduce in a happy way. Vegetarians tend to be very condescending and very. I don't know. Like, I've known vegetarians in my circle who have actually, as I'm eating my food, have let me know about the abuse that has taken place in the food that I, you know, in the way I'm eating the food. I've had someone actually walk me over to a sink to pour out a drink that was not healthy for me because for some reason they felt like I was abusing my body by drinking the wrong thing.

[Eric]

Well, you've told the story before. Yeah. Somebody that you knew, right?

[Melissa]

That this was somebody I did know that walked me over. That's the only reason I walked over to a sink with him. I'm like, okay, fine, you know, just to get him to shut up, and then I'll go get another drink once they're gone. And then.

[Carl]

What was the drink story again? What was the drink?

[Melissa]

It was a soda. I mean, it was not.

[Carl]

And they just didn't like the chemicals in the soda.

[Melissa]

They didn't like the chemicals in the soda and made me pour it out. And then. And then all. And then recently, it was a couple, and one of the people in the couple was trying to be that vegetarian. I think they were. They were vegans, actually, which is, you know, a step above. It's like, you know, vegetarian. And so the V is so. And one. Both were vegans, and one was the older vegan. One was the newer vegan. In this conversation, the newer vegan actually was the one trying to say, oh, well, this is what I think about. And this is the reason I do it. And was very nice about it. But then, you know, their boyfriend tended to, once they got in the conversation,

[Eric]

got a little more militant.

[Melissa]

Little more militant about it. So that's the only thing is, like, I would love to be a vegetarian, but I don't like vegetarians.

[Eric]

Is the line.

[Melissa]

I'm sorry.

[Eric]

Is the line like, if you're a vegetarian for health reasons, you're sort of cool about it, but if you're a vegetarian for animal rights reasons, then you're more militant about it?

[Melissa]

I don't know. I don't know. Because I appreciate both. I appreciate the passion for both, but I just. It's just hard to. Because it's Almost. It's almost like. Yeah. Is it a circle of people that I really want to spend time with?

[Carl]

The health reasons? They don't have anything like the animal rights ones. Like, we had the. The incident in studio that we've talked about with our old. When Jamie Massey was here, she was an animal lover and a vegetarian. And one of the new restaurants. New restaurant had opened, and the chef said, hey, I'm gonna bring some food for you guys for lunch. So, like, it was toward the end of the show, and we started snacking on it, and one of them was a foie gras. Something.

[Jen]

Pancake.

[Carl]

Pancake. And Jen was about to take a.

[Jen]

She was in the middle of eating

[Carl]

it, had it in her mouth and was about to put another in her mouth. And Massey whips open this picture of a goose with the, you know, being like.

[Melissa]

Yeah.

[Carl]

Cause it's goose lover. Yeah.

[Jen]

And sticks it in my face.

[Eric]

I started reading that book, like, four or five months ago, that Skinny Bastard book, which is really just the offshoot of Skinny Bitch. And because I was really interested, I think you might have turned me onto it at first.

[Jen]

Yeah. I read that a while ago.

[Eric]

Yeah. But then I'm about a quarter of the way through it, and they're just. I mean, a hardcore pressure about what they do to the animals, and they're basically telling you you're a piece of crap if you're eating.

[Jen]

I skipped the meat chapter.

[Eric]

I stopped. I stopped reading it.

[Jen]

I skipped it and moved on. Because if you ever want to eat meat ever again, you can't read that stuff.

[Melissa]

Well, and one of the reasons that Kati and I really thought about it is after watching Food Inc. You know, several months ago, and we have changed our eating habits based on it.

[Eric]

What is that?

[Melissa]

Food Inc. Is a documentary about the food industry and how foods get in the grocery stores and the fact that very few companies own every single grocery in the grocery store. So you go in thinking you've got this huge variety of foods when it's just a handful of companies that make all those foods and just relabel everything to make you think you have a choice.

[Eric]

Oh, really?

[Melissa]

And the practice is, once you. You know, once. Once anything gets corporate, sometimes the details kind of fall through the cracks because they're so big.

[Nicole Forrester]

Really?

[Melissa]

And so in the food industry is the same thing.

[Carl]

But what would a detail be? Like a live mouse falling into my Cheerios?

[Melissa]

No, it's more of a. Because they mass produce farms now, instead of it being mom and pop farms that you have so Much cattle. And they talk about the feed to the cattle so it's easier to produce corn. And so they feed corn to the cows, which is not really what they need to be eating. And the chemical changes that happen in the cows and you know, the, there's

[Jen]

a difference in the taste if you have corn fed beef or grass fed beef.

[Melissa]

And there's a different, There's a higher potential for E. Coli poisoning if it's a corn fed. If it's corn fed beef. And so, you know, it's almost as if it's introducing it where innocently enough, you know, it was just the idea of making things cost cutting, more production, like in anything in corporate. But it shows how it's actually affecting us in a negative way.

[Eric]

And I think you could apply this to anything when people are just overly passionate about anything. It could be a movie, it could be. Look, I've had some friends that became born again Christians and every conversation we had with them all of a sudden had to be about the Bible right

[Carl]

after they quit smoking.

[Melissa]

It's the newness of everything. It's new money. It's the new money syndrome. If anything new in your life, you're obnoxious about it.

[Eric]

Hey man, good Morning. You're on Q100.

[Caller - Vegetarian Advice]

Hey, Melissa, I just wanted to kind of chime in with you quickly. You know, this whole thing. I've been a vegetarian for eight years. My girlfriend is not. We've been dating for six years. So you know, to me, don't be around people who are judgmental and who are going to push you into that. You know, to me it's a transition and it's something that, you know, to me you do on your own time for yourself, not for other people. It's something that it's your choice. And I know you have no problem making your own choices. So, you know, just take the time and do the research and you should be just fine.

[Melissa]

I appreciate that. The one reason we have found a cool vegan. Well, cause he's done it for eight years so it's not new to him anymore. But I think that, you know, the main reason, like I said in the beginning of the conversation, I'm lazy about cooking. I don't cook, I don't take the time to prepare foods and that kind of thing. So it's laziness. Is the reason I'm not a vegetarian because it's much easier to be a meat eater in this culture for sure. But yeah, I appreciate that. I think the reason I come across vegetarians and Vegans is because if I'm asking the question, then that's a response. Then it becomes this condescending conversation response I get. You know, it's like, I know. I just want to kind of know how you cook. I don't need to know anything else.

[Eric]

What is a vegan eating on Sunday mornings when you're all hungover and stuff and you need just something greasy and meaty? Yes. What does a vegan eat when they're hungover?

[Jen]

Tabbouleh.

[Eric]

That's not going to be right.

[Jen]

That sounds good at all.

[Eric]

I don't even know what that is.

[Carl]

The Bird show. Hey, the Bird show.

[Eric]

Nicole here is so nervous. You're actually making me nervous. How you doing?

[Nicole Forrester]

I'm good. How are you?

[Eric]

You all right?

[Nicole Forrester]

No, not really. I'm really nervous.

[Caller - Various]

About what?

[Nicole Forrester]

I'm just nervous because I'm not used to doing this kind of thing, you know.

[Eric]

Well, it's not the first time you've told the story, though.

[Nicole Forrester]

No, no. But to Atlanta it is.

[Eric]

Yeah. Nicole made national tabloid news last week when she told the National Enquirer that she had a one night stand with Josh Duhamel. And it seems like nobody wants to believe this story.

[Nicole Forrester]

No, but, you know, I actually was approached by the Inquirer. I didn't approach them, they approached me. And when they came into Tattletales, they were asking for me, my stage name being Delilah. And I told them it was me. They were asking me questions and I was like, I don't want to deal with this. I do have two small children and I didn't want them to find out that I was a stripper.

[Eric]

You didn't want your kids to find out?

[Nicole Forrester]

Absolutely. My kids are 13 and 10 and it would kind of mess up their school and just stuff like that. So I didn't want them to know that I was a stripper. Well, I, you know, pushed him away for a couple days and he kept coming back two or three separate times before I actually talked to this guy.

[Carl]

How did they find out in the first place?

[Nicole Forrester]

Well, he was actually bragging on set. Somebody on set. I forget the movie that they're filming at Piedmont Park. He had actually said that he had banged a hot blonde stripper at Tattletale. So they got the tip, Enquirer got the tip. And they actually came up, you know, called up there and gave the tip.

[Eric]

All right, so he was on set. He tells somebody on the set. The set calls the Inquirer.

[Nicole Forrester]

The Inquirer, not the set. A person. An anonymous. Anonymous Caller called the Inquirer, and then

[Eric]

the Inquirer, and he mentioned Tattletales.

[Nicole Forrester]

Yeah, he. Yeah, how else would they know where I was at?

[Eric]

Right. You know, some are going to say, I bet you called.

[Nicole Forrester]

I swear to God, on the souls of my children. Yes.

[Carl]

And nobody. It was nobody that you knew?

[Nicole Forrester]

No, he. They said, anima. An anonymous caller.

[Melissa]

I mean, because you talk about your children and you talk about, you know, you know, the repercussions of this. Because he could come back and say, I never said that. I deny the whole thing. And then you look like you're coming out there trying to get money. Why even acknowledge it? Why did you just. Why not just say, well, after the

[Nicole Forrester]

third time he told me, he was like, you know what? I'm gonna print the story regardless. We're gonna find out what's going on anyway. And he was like, we already have enough to print the story. He said, so, you know, here we are. Were going to print it anyway. They're going to know you're a stripper anyway, so why don't you make money off of it? And I started thinking, well, you know, if they're going to know, then why not, you know?

[Jen]

Can you tell us?

[Carl]

Yeah.

[Jen]

How much?

[Nicole Forrester]

Well, they wanted to offer me. They offered me $500 to show up and talk to them for the first time, and then fifteen hundred dollars to pass the polygraph.

[Eric]

Which you did.

[Nicole Forrester]

I did.

[Eric]

You did take that polygraph?

[Nicole Forrester]

Yes. And then they were going to offer me 20 for the story. So.

[Caller - Various]

20,000?

[Jen]

What's the story?

[Nicole Forrester]

Yeah.

[Carl]

20,000.

[Nicole Forrester]

Yeah.

[Jen]

So what is the story?

[Nicole Forrester]

Well, the story is he came into Tattletales early in October, and he had, you know, when he came in, of course, I didn't know who he was at first, but I knew he was really freaking hot. Oh, my gosh, it's so hot. Anyway, so he came in and I went and immediately sat with him because I'm a very aggressive, you know, person when I'm trying to make my money. So, anyway, so I sat down with him, and he was like, you're hot. I was like, you're absolutely gorgeous. I mean, he's gorgeous.

[Eric]

Is he in there by himself at this point?

[Nicole Forrester]

In there with somebody. I'm not sure who. I forgot his name. Another guy, but he referred to himself as jd. We had. Which, of course, I didn't know what JD Stood for. I guess it was Josh du Mel. Well, anyway, so we had a couple of shots, and I gave him a dance. And in his friend.

[Eric]

Private dance.

[Nicole Forrester]

No no, no, no. Just out on the floor. And so his friend kept saying. Because I kept asking him who he was, because one of the servers were like, you know who that is? I was like, no. She was like, that's Josh Duhamel from the transfer workers, Fergie's husband. I was like, what? And she was like. I was like, you're lied. You're lying.

[Melissa]

Whatever.

[Nicole Forrester]

So anyway, when he was leaving, he stayed for about 45 minutes to an hour. When he was leaving, he asked for my number. I was like, yeah, absolutely. And then. Then I was like, can I have yours? So he gave me his. And then he was like, well, I'm working during the week. He takes his work seriously. Very, very nice guy, by the way. Very nice guy. And he text me through the week, like, what's up? You know, just, you know, just small talk. And he was like, I'll contact you during the weekend, you know, when I can talk and hang out. So a week went by, you know, after texting, and then he text me on Friday, you know, wanted to hang out or whatever and have a good time and party and stuff. So I was like. At first, I wasn't, you know, didn't really want to go because I was kind of tired because I'd just gotten off work. But then I was like, gosh, I'm going to. You know.

[Eric]

You're like, it's Josh du Mel. I'm going no matter what.

[Nicole Forrester]

At first, really. At first, I really didn't believe that that was him. But when I finally saw him again, and I had texted one of my friends, can you look this person up? Because he was saying, jd, jd. Jd. But this person's saying, Josh du Mel. So I had texted somebody and was like, you know, could you please? He finally told me after, like, being there, like, a couple hours, okay, I'll give you my first name, Josh. And then a few more hours, he gave me du Mail. So, I mean, it took him a little while to just kind of warm up to me, to. To give me that information. I said, so, are you Fergie's husband? And he's like, you know what? You know, you know, and wouldn't really admit it or whatever. So when I texted the person, they sent me back a picture, snapped a picture, like, online and sent it to me. I was like, holy.

[Eric]

Let's try not to.

[Carl]

I got it.

[Nicole Forrester]

I'm sorry.

[Eric]

Okay.

[Nicole Forrester]

Sorry.

[Eric]

Looks like you loosened up.

[Nicole Forrester]

Yeah, he kind of makes anybody loosen up.

[Caller - Various]

Sorry.

[Carl]

Did you. Did you save any of the text messages from him?

[Nicole Forrester]

Yes, we do have. No, we. Yes, we do. But my attorney. We have a lot of evidence that we have, but I can't really talk about it because my attorney has asked for that to be out of the story for right now.

[Eric]

We're not asking you to show us them, but you have them on a cell phone.

[Nicole Forrester]

Yes.

[Eric]

Okay.

[Nicole Forrester]

So anyway, we did hook up. We had lots of sex and we had a really, really good time. And then the next morning when I left, you know, he kissed me on my cheek. Really sweet guy. And then he actually called because I had to get a cab the next morning because somebody actually had dropped me off because I was drunk.

[Eric]

And this is at the St. Regis at this point, right?

[Nicole Forrester]

At the St. Regis, yeah. And. And so I, you know, went home and he actually had called my friend that had dropped me off because my phone was dying. And he thought, you know, I guess he thought that I was still with that number. But he has my other number as well. But I was using my friend's phone, so, you know, that he had asked him. He was like, is, you know, did she make it home okay? Is she good? You know, because he was in shock that, you know, he had answered the phone because I was using. It was a guy's phone. But anyway, he was just like. He was like, yeah, she's good. I guess he was like, I don't know. I hadn't heard from her this morning. And then that's when he had, you know, called me or I had called him back or something like that, you know, just to let him know that I was okay.

[Eric]

So he was calling you the next morning just to make sure you were okay?

[Nicole Forrester]

Yeah, well, the morning that actually. That I got home, yeah. He's actually a really, really sweet guy. It was the same, like, it was like 8 or 9:45 in the morning.

[Eric]

Okay, so has he called you back since the. The story hit the National Enquirer or.

[Nicole Forrester]

I actually, when. Several times before it hit, I was, you know, I had called him and like, what do you want me to do? You know, he actually went out of town a week after it happened, for a week. I think, you know, Fergie's been on tour or whatever, and he went out of town and he wasn't answering my calls and stuff. And I thought that was kind of weird, but I left him a message. I was like, look, these people are calling me. You gotta help me. I don't want the story to get out because I have these kids and it's. My kids are gonna be really upset. My daughter especially, so. So he called me back. He was like, hun, hun. You have to totally deny that you ever knew me. So. And then we've kind of talked a little bit back and forth. You know, I was trying to get him to talk to me. He was like, I wanted to see you, but now, you know, this has gotten way out of hand, you know, so he. You know, he's got kind of scared, and me too, you know. But then, you know, after me and my attorney had gotten together about it, when I passed the polygraph, I told. His name is Alexander Hitchens. He works for the Inquirer. The reporter I had told him, I was like, you know, I want my attorney to look at this contract. And when I said that, of course, he was kind of staying away from that. So I said, you know what? Before I take the polygraph, I want this contract fax to my attorney. But I didn't talk to my attorney the next day. But I said, okay, I'll go ahead and take the polygraph. Pass the polygraph with Kenneth Blackstone. And my attorney is Romina Lavi. And so I passed the polygraph. And then the next day, Ramin called me back. He says, nicole, this is gonna ruin your life. He was like, this is no good. He was like, it's gonna get your name out there. They're gonna. You just run you through the mud, make you out to be this horrible person that you're not. He was like, you need to rescind the contract. I said, can I get out of it? He said, well, there's. You can rescind it within 72 hours. And it had been, like, 48 hours. So we tried to rescind the contract. They printed the printed. I think on Wednesday. That Wednesday. And, you know, the day after I had rescinded it. So, you know, are you gonna sue them? I don't know what. I don't know what his plans are to do, but I'm really, really upset because, you know that this is gonna mess up my life.

[Carl]

So why did. Like you said when you were talking about the text messages, those are evidence or whatever. Like, against what? Not against or for what?

[Nicole Forrester]

Well, just. I mean, just, you know, basically for proof that what I'm saying is true, to corroborate the story, because people don't

[Eric]

believe me, and people are really reluctant to embrace it.

[Carl]

But why would. Why are you holding on to those now rather than just say, yeah, here they are?

[Nicole Forrester]

Well, because my attorney wants to, for whatever reason, you know, in the Go ahead.

[Eric]

In the overall scheme of things, do you wish you would have never contacted the tabloid at all and not attack the tabloid? Well, they eventually contacted you, but eventually you had to say, okay, $500, I'll do that. Thousand dollars, I'll do that. Two thousand bucks, I'll do that.

[Nicole Forrester]

Third or fourth time. And they said that they were going to report the story anyway. I was like, what the heck? You know, let's do it at that

[Eric]

what the heck moment though, is what I'm talking.

[Nicole Forrester]

Do I wish I would have not done it? Yeah, yeah. Now because it's caused me a lot of problems and people at the kids school has, you know, you know, asked me, are you this person? You know, and I'm. I mean, well, it looks like me, doesn't it?

[Melissa]

You know, what do your kids say?

[Nicole Forrester]

They're very hurt, especially my little girl, you know, so hurt by what Hurt that they found out that I'm a stripper. You know, I mean, that's just the biggest thing. And my son, he was like, mom, you're disgusting. You know, so I mean, you know, it's a bad situation.

[Eric]

This was.

[Nicole Forrester]

And that's totally not. You know, I just, I totally went at it because I was. We were attracted to each other and I really, really thought he was really hot and I just thought it could just be whatever, you know. But he kept telling me he was a porn star. And I was like. At first I was like, you're no porn star. But anyway, I mean, he's just a really, really good looking guy. And I just thought there was just an attraction and I thought that, you know, I just wanted to just be with him. I mean, have you ever just been attracted to somebody and just be like, dang, you know, just wanted to be with him.

[Melissa]

But you knew at the time that he was married to Fergie, though.

[Nicole Forrester]

And I did not know at the time.

[Eric]

But you did ask him about it?

[Nicole Forrester]

Yeah, I did ask him. And when I got there, I mean, I was intoxicated. He was intoxicated. So at that point, you know, I mean, I was there and we were attracted. So I mean, it wasn't like I went at it knowing that he was married, you know what I'm saying? Not even that he's married. But you knew he was a celebrity. I mean, that I didn't know at first. Until I got to his room at St. Regis. I did not know for sure because I wanted to take a second look, have my friend take a picture and send it to me.

[Jen]

Are you Fearful of what he and. Or Fergie or their people would do now to you?

[Nicole Forrester]

No, because it's the truth. I'm not lying about anything. I have nothing to hide. And, you know, he's just as guilty as I am.

[Eric]

Did he mention anything like they might have some kind of arrangement where this is okay if he's out of town? Did he say anything like that?

[Nicole Forrester]

No, because he never admitted to being Fergie's husband. Never.

[Eric]

But you brought it up, and he said, you know what?

[Nicole Forrester]

You know, exactly. You know, and I'm not trying to get my 15 minutes of fame. All these people think, oh, she's trying to get her 15 minutes of fame. You know, not at all. You know, the cost of my children.

[Eric]

You know, what's it like when you walk in the door now with the kids?

[Nicole Forrester]

Well, I mean, my son, he was like, mom, are you doing anything different now? I mean, he doesn't want me to do this anymore. You know, he doesn't want me to dance. I feel like I can't dance, but I feel like people's just looking at me, you know, and it's just bad. It's just an uncomfortable situation with my children and all their friends know, you

[Melissa]

know, what do you say to the critics who would think that you're doing this to get money so that you don't have to dance anymore?

[Nicole Forrester]

I would actually pay money to make this go away. If I had it, I would do it, you know, But I don't. But, you know, I mean, it's nothing I can change now. So.

[Jen]

But it's kind of like what Bert said at that. What the heck moment when you went ahead to sell the story. That was when you invited all of this in.

[Nicole Forrester]

Right. Well, I mean, if it was gonna get out there, then I thought, well, you know, well, if it's gonna get out there, you know, I should actually kind of benefit from it. I think most people would.

[Eric]

You're like, if I'm gonna be ruined, I might as well be ruined for $2,000.

[Nicole Forrester]

No, not 2,000. It was 20. And I know that sounds like a. You know, that's low, but, I mean, I thought, you know, that was a lot at the time.

[Eric]

I'm confused. On the 20,000 is for the story.

[Nicole Forrester]

The 500 was for showing up and talking to him. And the 20. I mean, the 1500 was for passing the polygraph.

[Eric]

Good morning, Vicki. You're on Q100.

[Caller - Various]

Hey, guys. Let me just preface this by saying I'm pretty much a pris, and I'm the last person that would call in to back up. Oh, a stripper with a young girl. And your girl knows. Anyway, okay. Stripped two years ago, I'm in Vegas for a trade show and this Josh guy, and you are correct, he is adorable, he's in a booth completely making out with a blonde who's not Fergie. And immediately we noticed him because it was 5 o' clock in the morning because we were on Atlanta time, so we were up super early. We were at the Bellagio in the little cafe and there was basically nobody in there. There was Josh with the girl and then we were there. And I mean, I don't know if he and Fergie. Jen, were he and Fergie married two years ago or were they just an item?

[Eric]

I'm not sure what the timing when they've been together.

[Caller - Various]

He was with Fergie back then.

[Eric]

Hold on one second. You know the time?

[Nicole Forrester]

Yeah, they actually got married 2009 March.

[Carl]

But they were together years ago because when Vision was open and I can't remember what the occasion was, but they came in there one of the nights when I was working at Vision and hung out up in vip. Josh and Fergie together. And that was what, four years ago, is it? It was a while ago.

[Nicole Forrester]

Yeah. They've been together for like five years.

[Eric]

And this was just a one night thing. This was one night. And then.

[Caller - Various]

Yeah.

[Nicole Forrester]

But yeah, we were planning on seeing each other again, you know, and then when he got back into town, it was just a mess, you know, and we were even contemplating on seeing each other again when, when, when they first started contacting me. But then he was like, oh, God, we just can't. Cause you might be followed, you know,

[Eric]

did you think that you were gonna end up having a relationship with this guy or was this just sex?

[Nicole Forrester]

Well, after it happened and after, you know, we definitely had a good time. We definitely had a wonderful time. I mean, we actually left St. Regis, you know, trying to go have a good time, like at a club and find some fun.

[Carl]

But should take him to Landmark Diner right around the corner.

[Nicole Forrester]

Yeah, right. No, and he always like wore ball cap, like try to disguise himself, but. But no, he was like, this is an adventure, you know, I mean, it's like I was like, you know, I guess you don't get out much. He was like, I've been stuck in this room for a month. You know, he's like, I'm gonna be in there another, you know, another month that he wanted to see me again. So we were definitely Gonna see each other while he was here, you know, and after we had already been together, I thought, you know, it'd just be why he's here. We're just gonna have a good time. And did I think it was a relationship? No, no. I just think it was an attraction.

[Eric]

And you thought once the movie got done shooting here in Atlanta, then he'd be back in LA with his life and this would all just be a way.

[Nicole Forrester]

Just be a mammary that just go away.

[Eric]

Wow. Anybody got a.

[Carl]

The criticism that we're going to get is that we're putting you on the air and you are knowingly going to have a relationship with a married guy.

[Nicole Forrester]

Mm. Well, not knowingly, because I told you it wasn't going to be.

[Melissa]

When you got to the Regis, you knew. So you say once you got to his hotel room, you knew who he was, so you knew before you had sex with him that he was a married man.

[Nicole Forrester]

Yeah. And, you know, I mean, it happens every day, you know, I'm human. The attraction. I'm human, you know, that's all I can say. Was it right? No.

[Eric]

And you're not married?

[Nicole Forrester]

No.

[Eric]

Good morning, Liz. You're on Q100.

[Caller - Various]

I just want to know, how do you know if they don't have, like, an open relationship? Guy from Ashley Madison on making a great point of people, you know, having to sleep around because they're both celebrities.

[Eric]

Yeah, they. They might. They might have that. That's why I asked the question. Did he ever mention that?

[Nicole Forrester]

No, he didn't really talk. Never talk about his wife. You know, he didn't talk about the movies he had done or anything like that. I found out most of that by myself. I did some digging afterwards, but. But, no, I don't think so. I mean, I. From what I understand, Josh was wanting to start a family, and, you know, Fergie's just really not ready to start a family right now.

[Eric]

He didn't say that, though. You read that?

[Nicole Forrester]

No, I read this. Yes. And so. But from what I understand, Josh is, you know, I'm not the first that this has happened with, and nor will. I'm sure I'll be the last.

[Eric]

How do you know that, though?

[Nicole Forrester]

Well, just because, you know, from what I've read and stuff and. Who is it? Perez? Yeah, Perez Hilton actually called in and told that, you know, this has been. This has happened more than once. You had, you know, people contact him and let them know that they've had relationships with this person.

[Jen]

So what do you say to critics that think you're making the whole thing

[Nicole Forrester]

up, you know, believe what you believe. I have proof. I have evidence, you know, and I'm sure it'll come out eventually.

[Eric]

Do you have phone records of him Absolutely. Calling you and you calling him? It's all logged.

[Nicole Forrester]

Oh, yeah.

[Melissa]

So for critics who wonder what your goal is, what's the goal in all this?

[Nicole Forrester]

For the truth to get out and let them know that I'm absolutely not a liar. I am a single mom, and, you know, I just. You know, I really, really, really, really want everybody to know that this is the truth. And Absolutely. They call me a liar and just run my name through the mud.

[Jen]

To what end, though, that they know the truth? Like, I'm kind of with Melissa. Like, what goal does. What purpose does that serve for you to change?

[Nicole Forrester]

Well, would you want your name slandered? No, absolutely not. Nobody wants their name slandered and, you know, be like, oh, this is another stripper trying to get money, blah, blah, blah. You know, that's not how come attempt. First of all, I never knew him in the first place.

[Eric]

And so that's the most offensive thing. Like, his people denied the story initially.

[Nicole Forrester]

Absolutely.

[Eric]

Which you knew they would. But the second part of it was just another stripper trying to make some

[Nicole Forrester]

extra cats, and that pisses. I mean, makes me mad.

[Carl]

Is it. Isn't it some sort of dancer code of ethics that, like, kind of what happens, what is part of that stays part of that. Like, aren't you breaking some sort of code?

[Nicole Forrester]

No, this was not about dancing. This was about meeting somebody that you're attracted to and liking them.

[Eric]

Hey, good morning, Jeff. You're on Q100.

[Caller - Various]

Yeah, I just want to know if she ever got the 20 grand yet.

[Nicole Forrester]

Nope. Absolutely not. Have not received any of it.

[Eric]

And we're assuming you won't at this point, right?

[Nicole Forrester]

No, and I'm not. You know, I don't. I mean, that's not my point right now. That's what everybody thinks, but. No, that's not my point. But are you gonna go after that money? I will. See. I mean, I don't know what Ramin wants to do about it yet, but we'll see.

[Eric]

Do you think that inevitably this will help you financially because people want to go to Tattletales to see Nicole or.

[Nicole Forrester]

Well, I'm hoping so now. You know, I mean, I'm scared to go to work, though, you know, I mean, because people have been coming in there left and right trying to talk to me. You know, I had a guy that came in there the other day, and he was like. He was like, oh, I have a contract, and whether it's true or not, I have no idea. But he was wearing, like, a direct mortgage shirt, and he was like, my name is so and so. I work directly for Josh Duhamel. And he was like, I have a contract for half a million dollars. We want you to stop talking about this and sign this contract. And I was like, absolutely not. You know, because I want everybody to know that they are putting me through the mud. They're making me out to be a liar, and I'm not a freaking liar.

[Carl]

Have you thought about, you know, a year from now when you're dating someone and you guys are snuggled up on the couch and you're flipping through and Tad Hamilton comes on TV or Transformers? Awkward.

[Nicole Forrester]

Yeah. Well, I mean, it is what it is, you know, it's life.

[Eric]

So you don't have any plans to call him? If he calls you up today and says, look, let's put a stop to this. Please don't do any more radio interviews. No more tv. That's it. Stop. What would you do?

[Nicole Forrester]

I'm not sure. I'm not sure.

[Eric]

What would you gain from continuing to do these?

[Nicole Forrester]

I don't know. Basically, I guess getting my story out there and letting them know that I'm not a liar, you know?

[Melissa]

Yeah, I guess I'm still confused about. Because I think that once you knowingly get involved with someone who's married, celebrity or not, well, I definitely have to understand that they're not going to, you know, brag about being with you, you know, when they're trying to save their marriage.

[Nicole Forrester]

Yeah, well, he wasn't trying to brag when he was in bed with me either, was he? Or he wasn't trying to, like, not. He wasn't trying to be married when he was in bed with me.

[Melissa]

So if Fergie and Josh divorce over this, you have no regret?

[Nicole Forrester]

I mean, I don't want anybody to get divorced, but why should everybody look bad on me? He did it willingly. Knowing he was married as well does take both.

[Eric]

I guess that's it. Is there anything else we haven't covered that you need to clear?

[Nicole Forrester]

Nope. I think that about does it.

[Eric]

I mean, you still seem pretty nervous and pretty shaken by the whole thing.

[Nicole Forrester]

I mean, it just bothers me, you know, it just bothers me.

[Eric]

Which part?

[Nicole Forrester]

Just that they. I mean, Josh's attorney actually, which is the same attorney as Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, had actually sent us a letter, you know, telling us that we can't talk about this and that they were going to sue us and all this kind of stuff. This is a liar. This is a bogus story or whatever. And I'm like, okay, yeah. Now that just makes me want to just be like, ugh, you know?

[Eric]

So Fergie calls you up today and says, okay, that's it. I mean, this has really put stress on my relationship. Can you please just go away?

[Nicole Forrester]

No, I mean, I want her. I want. I want everybody. I want to get my story out there, and I want people to know because people don't believe me. They don't believe me, and I want them to have the evidence, and I want them to know that I'm not a freaking liar.

[Eric]

Josh and Fergie call you up today, and they say, we're going to give you $50,000 just to go away. Just go away.

[Nicole Forrester]

No, absolutely not.

[Eric]

$100,000.

[Nicole Forrester]

No. There's no amount of money right now. There's no amount of money.

[Melissa]

Do you understand how it seems like you have. I'm trying to think of the word because I understand there'd be frustration in people thinking that you're a liar. But I think after a while and being so frustrated, you know, it kind of goes back to what Jen and I were saying about what. To what end? Because then it'll seem like you are on a mission of some kind. You know what I mean?

[Nicole Forrester]

Yeah. And I thought my mission was. And that's it.

[Melissa]

Because, like, you got your story out today, so.

[Carl]

Yeah.

[Nicole Forrester]

But, you know, there's not a lot of people that still don't believe me. There's a lot of evidence that they don't know about that.

[Jen]

I have.

[Nicole Forrester]

I have a lot of stuff.

[Eric]

The tabloids are funny, though. Like, once one gets a story like this is going to be picked up today, and once it's up on one website, it's up on 500 websites, and then it's on TV and it's on Access Hollywood and it's on TMZ.

[Nicole Forrester]

And what if something happens of it? We know, what if they make a movie? What if, you know, I don't care, you know, But I just, you know, I mean, that's not my. What I'm trying to do, you know, there.

[Melissa]

To make a movie out of this.

[Nicole Forrester]

I'm not saying that. I'm just saying whatever, you know, I mean, he's saying movie, he's saying tv. I'm not saying no, I'm saying it's.

[Eric]

It'll be on different tabloid shows tonight. So I don't think that you have to continue to do interview after interview after interview because I think your story, your story is now out there and it'll be picked up by a hundred different places people.

[Nicole Forrester]

People won't actually believe it until they have the proof in their hands. There always be the skeptics that are like, yeah, right, she's still that, that stripper that's trying to get paid. That's what they're always going to think. So I've got the proof, you know.

[Eric]

So you're doing this until your name is clear?

[Nicole Forrester]

Absolutely. Could be a lifetime. Well, we'll see.

[Eric]

Okay, well, thanks for coming in. You were so nervous when you walked in here. I was like, she is never gonna make it through this. No, sir.

[Nicole Forrester]

I loosen up pretty good.

[Eric]

So. Yeah. Please keep us posted on what's going on.

[Nicole Forrester]

All right.

[Eric]

And I have a feeling that the Josh Duhamel people will be giving us a call later on today also.

[Nicole Forrester]

Let him come in and do an interview. Let him do a polygraph.

[Eric]

Nicole Forrester, who says that she had this one night stand with Josh Duhamel and says it's not about money anymore. Now it's just about getting the truth out.

[Carl]

The Bird show. This is the Birch show.

[Eric]

I gotta back Carl up on something. Carl and I were talking about this like last week or two weeks ago. And Carl's got young daughters, right? Mm.

[Caller - Dad]

Have an 8 year old and a 3 year old daughter and a 6 year old dude.

[Eric]

Cause I saw this at least twice trick or treating over the weekend and I'm not sure where you crossed the line on it, but I saw one cheerleader, she was probably three years old, and I saw one witch girl that was about four or five years old. And I know it's supposed to be cute and all, but the dresses were just a little bit too high on the booty.

[Caller - Dad]

Exactly.

[Eric]

And the fishnet stockings and stuff for

[Jen]

a five year old.

[Caller - Dad]

Right?

[Melissa]

Really, you can't believe that.

[Caller - Dad]

No way, no how.

[Jen]

Uh huh.

[Caller - Dad]

I mean, not even for my daughter. My 8 year old daughter, she wanted to be some sort of like punk rock type of rock star. But the costume was, was real skimpy. And I told her, I said, nah, baby, you can't have it. We was out, you know, searching for costumes. I said, nah, baby, you can't have it.

[Eric]

What'd it look like though? Like, give us a description of it.

[Caller - Dad]

It had tights and it was, it may have come up to right below the, the crotch area, like right below it. I'm like, man, why would they even make a costume like that for a kid?

[Jen]

Like a skirt, like a leather skirt

[Caller - Dad]

or something like that. Skirt, tights in a real tight. Like, I don't know, a midriff top.

[Nicole Forrester]

A midriff top?

[Eric]

Yeah. So her whole stomach was showing.

[Caller - Dad]

Exactly. Stomach and the belly button was showing. So I said, no, baby, you can't have that. And so she searched around. How about this one? The same type of skimpy outfit. No, you can't have that either. So my thing was, my wife was. I don't know. Actually, dad, hands down, no, I don't care.

[Carl]

You'll be mad at me for the

[Caller - Dad]

rest of your life.

[Eric]

I'm surprised that your mom, that your wife was giving it the okay.

[Caller - Dad]

She wouldn't. She didn't give it the okay.

[Carl]

She knew that you were going to say no.

[Melissa]

That's what it is.

[Eric]

She's like, actually, dad, smart.

[Caller - Dad]

Right?

[Melissa]

Yeah.

[Eric]

So what was the compromise on it?

[Caller - Dad]

There wasn't a compromise. The only compromise was that she chose. Well, she ended up choosing a Supergirl outfit that had stockings and the skirt came down to her knees. So I said, baby, as long as it comes down to past your thighs, at least to your knees, I guess. But it was a Supergirl. So I'm like, okay, maybe we can halfway work with that.

[Eric]

It gets to a point. I mean, some of them are so young and the costumes are so like inappropriate, but they're on such a young girl that it isn't inappropriate. Right. Do you know what I'm saying?

[Caller - Dad]

Like two year old cheerleader, like a

[Carl]

one year old Britney Spears is funny.

[Eric]

Yeah. And she didn't. I don't know.

[Jen]

Because they don't know any better. But at 8, she's starting to sort of pick up all that stuff and kind of understand what all that things that she's gonna get attention for that kind of an outfit.

[Caller - Dad]

Right, Exactly. The next thing you know, she makes catch wind of a video. Next thing you know, sliding down poles. Not. Not in that house. Not in my house.

[Eric]

Hey, Shira, good morning. You're on T100.

[Caller - Various]

Good morning. How are you guys?

[Eric]

Good, thank you.

[Caller - Various]

Love the show.

[Eric]

Thank you.

[Caller - Various]

I have a comment real quick. I work at Arby's and I was dealing with a customer and she came in her daughter. I'm not too sure what her outfit was or whatever, but she came in this little girl. I'm telling. She had makeup on. The makeup was so dark, it was like purplish black almost. It was ridiculous. It really wasn't like what's wrong with the makeup?

[Carl]

I don't understand.

[Eric]

What's with the makeup?

[Jen]

Eight or nine. Like a girl who's eight or nine to be over made up. Kind of like that JonBenet type of thing. Whatever. It just does seem odd to have young girls with adult female makeup on.

[Eric]

Okay.

[Caller - Dad]

I was thinking kind of like that gothic look. Like I wouldn't want my daughter. I mean the makeup, first of all. Yes, but the gothic look, she's too young to go gothic.

[Carl]

So dark.

[Caller - Dad]

That's what I was thinking.

[Eric]

Yeah. Really?

[Caller - Dad]

That's what I was thinking.

[Eric]

Good morning, Melissa, you're on Q100. Hi.

[Caller - Various]

Hi. How are you? I just wanted to say I was at the Walmart the night after Halloween and there was a girl, she was probably about 8 or 9 years old and she. I guess she was a vampire, but she was wearing a skirt. The skirt was so short, I swear you could see the bottom of her butt cheek.

[Eric]

Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. This little cheerleader too.

[Jen]

Yes.

[Caller - Various]

And I actually said something, something to the mom.

[Jen]

What?

[Caller - Various]

Are you aware that you can see your daughter's butt cheeks? And she made a very rude comment that I wasn't the one that bought the outfit. It was really none of my business.

[Eric]

Oh, wow.

[Caller - Various]

This was a child. Wow.

[Jen]

Well, even if it is a teenager.

[Melissa]

Yeah. Both don't make it acceptable.

[Caller - Various]

But unreal.

[Carl]

Maybe they were headed over to compound to win that five grand.

[Jen]

Sick.

[Nicole Forrester]

That's disgusting.

[Eric]

Hey, Jamie, you're on Q100. Good morning.

[Caller - Various]

Hey. We were at a fall festival at a church and there was an eight year old Playboy bunny.

[Nicole Forrester]

No way. You are kidding me.

[Caller - Various]

Her bra was stuffed. She was wearing these white fishnet stockings and the Playboy bunny ears. It was awful. We were.

[Jen]

It was a church festival and it

[Eric]

was a church festival also.

[Carl]

That's funny.

[Melissa]

Wow.

[Eric]

That would be pure shock value in your house. Imagine your W up and even suggesting that to you.

[Caller - Dad]

Oh man, that would be crazy. I couldn't even imagine that.

[Melissa]

And listen, honey, we're going to stuff her bra and it'd be really, really fun.

[Eric]

Come on, that's ridiculous. At the church. Wow.

[Caller - Dad]

I don't even want my daughter wearing a training bra right now. A lot of stuff.

[Eric]

Bra. Wow. We could probably do this for days, y'. All. Good morning. Q100. Yellow. Good morning, Kristen. Yes, go ahead.

[Caller - Various]

Hi. I was shopping with my husband for my daughter, my five year old daughter's costume and immediately all of them were. No, no, no. Well, we found one that was Wonder Woman and we got her a size 6, 7. We didn't try this one on because we were really pressed for time. Get home Halloween night and we're dressing up and her butt shows really five years old. So I had to put on shorts. And she's mommy, Mommy, this doesn't look like Wonder Woman. So she went out looking like a little girl in shorts and pants and tights with high boots that had on a Wonder Woman skirt that didn't look like Wonder Woman.

[Eric]

And that's fine. She's got just as much candy in that costume as she would have any other one. One woman's niece was wearing lace and fishnets. Jeez, it's too soon, man.

[Caller - Dad]

What do you expect? What do you expect them to do when they're 16, 17 and 18?

[Eric]

Right. If you're dressing them that way at 7 or 8, sure.

[Carl]

The bird show here. Bird show.

[Eric]

We have told you guys, go ahead, use our show. Could be for a million different things. What do you want? What do you want to use our show for? It could be to propose to somebody. It could tell us about a brand new company that you're starting, a small business.

[Melissa]

I think before we've had somebody thanked somebody for doing something good, they didn't know who they were, but they came on the show, described the situation and thanked somebody for something. Could be a good deed.

[Eric]

Anything that you want. Just use our show. So Whitney here has herself a super talent and she would like to use our show to show it off. Hey, Whitney.

[Jen]

She's gonna prove it.

[Caller - Various]

Hey, prove it.

[Eric]

How are you?

[Caller - Various]

I'm great. How are you?

[Eric]

Good. All right. What is your superpower?

[Caller - Various]

I can determine the sex of a baby before it's born.

[Jen]

Okay. How are you able to do this?

[Caller - Various]

I don't know. And that's why I want to test it, because I've done it for 11 people.

[Nicole Forrester]

Oh, okay.

[Jen]

That's good.

[Caller - Various]

10 out of the 11 I've been able to correctly. Yes. The only one that I haven't was a lady I've never met and only know of through my boss.

[Eric]

Now, this one could be pretty marketable here. Like we could be your. We're your test group here. But if you really did have this gift, I mean, you're talking about. I'm serious here. Like infomercials and appearances where you can make a lot of cash doing something like this. This is just freaky enough where people would buy into.

[Jen]

Who was the lady that you guys believed? The psychic that wasn't a psychic.

[Eric]

Ms. Cleo.

[Jen]

Miss. You could be the next Ms. Cleo for babies.

[Melissa]

Oh, wait a second. Ms. Cleo had a talent, you know, in an accent. So she believed it. She had the talent and she lied. But, I mean, you know, whatever.

[Eric]

It's still too soon to joke about.

[Carl]

So.

[Jen]

I'm sorry, your name's Whitney?

[Caller - Various]

Yes.

[Jen]

Okay, Whitney, do you have to. Does a woman have to be a certain number of weeks pregnant in order for you to make the prediction?

[Caller - Various]

No. One time I came back from maternity leave and a lady I worked with was right at three months pregnant. I said, you're gonna have a girl. And two months later, she's like, you're right. I'm having a girl.

[Eric]

Is this one of those things that every woman thinks that she has this gift?

[Melissa]

No, no.

[Jen]

Everybody likes to make predictions and likes to do, like, the baby pool and the bets and the whatever, and likes to think that they would get it right. But I don't think anybody truly believes

[Melissa]

it like Whitney does unless they've had children, and they do. The. The only thing I've ever heard about somebody talking about the gender is how they carry the baby. You know, like, oh, well, you're carrying

[Caller - Various]

it low, so that still can't be right. I don't do it like that. I just. I get a weird feeling, and it's just like. I blurt it out.

[Eric]

Okay, so you don't even need to see Mommy in front of you. You just get a gut feeling when you talk to them.

[Caller - Various]

Okay. I've done it over the phone before and been correct, and I've also done it through the father before.

[Jen]

Through the father?

[Melissa]

Really? Huh.

[Caller - Various]

Yes. And so I'm not. I've done it through the father twice. Like, I know the dad, and you know their wife's pregnant, and I'm just like, so you just had a baby boy, or I'm pretty sure you're having a girl. And they were. I was right.

[Eric]

Really? 10 out of 11 times?

[Caller - Various]

Yeah. So I'm not sure if it's just a fluke, and I was just really good at guessing, but I really want to test it.

[Jen]

Well, why don't you guess on Wendy? I'm kidding.

[Caller - Various]

Oh, my God.

[Nicole Forrester]

I'm pregnant.

[Melissa]

You know what? That's awesome. People heard, they've turned the channel and they're like, oh, my God, Wendy's pregnant.

[Nicole Forrester]

No, I'm not pregnant.

[Jen]

See, Wendy, any publicity is good publicity. Just go with it. I'm just teasing.

[Melissa]

I'm just teasing. My dad calls, right?

[Eric]

Then it's bad publicity. So there's one of two ways we can go with this, we can have people call up that know what the sex of their baby is or what's the second way we can do it. Or we can. We can have you talk to people that don't know yet, and then after they deliver, they can get confirmation if you were right or wrong.

[Jen]

Let's do that.

[Caller - Various]

I like.

[Jen]

I like option B.

[Eric]

You like option B.

[Melissa]

But she doesn't get instant.

[Eric]

You know, and we're so bad at following up is. My only problem is that we say we'll follow up with these moms and then we'll just forget all of our.

[Jen]

Tell Tracy and it'll happen.

[Nicole Forrester]

We can do it like 50, 50, like three people that are don't know and three people that do know.

[Eric]

There you go.

[Nicole Forrester]

We have a compromise, of course.

[Eric]

The pregnant girl comes up with the perfect idea on the pregnant bit of

[Jen]

this will be fun.

[Melissa]

This weekend, I'll be at the bar drinking.

[Nicole Forrester]

Aren't you pregnant?

[Caller - Various]

No.

[Eric]

All right, so we're looking for two different type of women here. We've got a couple that we'll find that know the sex of their baby even though it's not born yet. And then we need to find a couple of women to call up also that are pregnant but currently don't know if it's a boy or a girl. We'll have Whitney talk to you for a couple of seconds and she will tell you, she'll predict if you're going to have a boy or a girl. And then we'll check back with you once you have the baby. All right. 404741. Q100.

[Melissa]

And you can do this over the phone?

[Caller - Various]

I do it more in person, but I have done it, so I really want to test it. And I can't be in studio because I live out in the burbs.

[Eric]

Okay, here is Megan. Good morning.

[Caller - Various]

Good morning.

[Eric]

How are you today, Megan?

[Caller - Various]

I'm good.

[Eric]

Megan, do you know the sex of your child?

[Caller - Various]

No. I'm finding out in three weeks.

[Eric]

Okay, this is going to work out perfectly. I. Whitney, how does your whole method work?

[Caller - Various]

She's having a girl just like that.

[Melissa]

Well, because she said that she just gets a vibe.

[Jen]

It just comes to you.

[Caller - Various]

I told you. I just get a feeling from the voice. I mean, I don't know. It's weird.

[Eric]

Just like that, how now, Megan, with other women that have been around you, you know, and they look at you and you can tell if the baby is sitting higher or lower. Have they predicted that you'd have a

[Caller - Dad]

boy or a girl?

[Caller - Various]

I haven't I've had most people say it's a girl, but my doctor thinks it's a boy.

[Melissa]

Okay, what does he know?

[Jen]

Have you had a dream about it?

[Caller - Various]

I have not. I did have a dream with my first baby, and it was wrong. Okay, So I haven't had any dreams with this one yet.

[Jen]

I've heard a lot of times that your dreams will predict what you're having. And most of the time, the dream is right.

[Carl]

You guys are aware that this statistic is 50%? Like. It's not like you're predicting who's gonna win the World Series in 2014.

[Eric]

However, what you miss because you're out of the studio is that she's hit 10 out of 11 times.

[Carl]

Don't you remember when Jessica did this? She was like five out of six.

[Jen]

We did that string thing.

[Nicole Forrester]

Yeah, but she doesn't have to do a string thing. She doesn't have to look at the belly. She just has to hear the voice.

[Carl]

That was what Jessica claimed, too. And I claim. Here's what I claim with Jessica. Because when you find out, let's say Melissa came into today and said, I'm pregnant. What are you, three months long? When you make the announcement publicly? So Melissa says I'm pregnant. So Jessica's gonna. Jessica will see Melissa on Friday, right? And go, oh, my God, you're having a girl. And then that's out there. Then. But six months goes by before the baby appears, and it'll never really come up again.

[Eric]

But now we have it documented right here, right?

[Carl]

This is why I think this is gonna not work as well as she thinks it is. And then what happens is, when Melissa delivers her baby six months from now, not only will it be the beginning

[Melissa]

of the end, because, well, I mean, yeah, Jesus.

[Carl]

Jesus back on Earth, but Melissa delivers a boy. Jessica's like, don't you remember? I said boy?

[Eric]

Well, now we have it documented. So, Whitney, you'll be able to see here if you really have this talent or not.

[Caller - Various]

And that's all I really want to do.

[Eric]

Okay, Megan, let me put you on hold. Don't go anywhere. We got to get your phone number, and we got to talk to you in three and a half weeks, okay?

[Caller - Various]

Okay.

[Eric]

All right. Hold on. And that's when Megan will find out. Good morning, Rosanna. You are on Q100. Hello.

[Caller - Various]

Hi. Good morning.

[Melissa]

Good morning.

[Eric]

How are you today?

[Caller - Various]

I'm doing well. And yourself?

[Eric]

Good. Now, Rosanna, do you know the gender of your child? Or you still have yet to find out? I know you know all right, Whitney,

[Caller - Various]

I need to hear. Talk a little bit clearer.

[Eric]

Tell us a little bit about your pregnancy.

[Caller - Various]

It's been pretty good. It was no really bad morning sickness right now. I'm just.

[Melissa]

She said boy.

[Caller - Various]

Boy?

[Carl]

Did you say. Did you say boy?

[Melissa]

Whitney said boy.

[Caller - Various]

I said boy. Backup's a girl.

[Carl]

Wait, what?

[Caller - Various]

I think it's a girl. I mean, I think it's a boy. Sorry.

[Eric]

Boy. Rosanna, is it a boy?

[Caller - Various]

No, it's a girl.

[Eric]

Okay, thank you.

[Jen]

Strike one.

[Carl]

Swing and a miss.

[Melissa]

You said that with passion, Jeff.

[Eric]

Chef loves.

[Melissa]

He says a lot of phlegm.

[Carl]

Yeah, I'm starting to.

[Eric]

Chef loves to be.

[Carl]

Starting to wake up. That NyQuil's wearing off. Got a lot of words. I have to get in. I gotta make up for 45 minutes worth of words.

[Eric]

Good morning, Beth, you're on Q100.

[Caller - Various]

Good morning.

[Eric]

How are you today?

[Caller - Various]

I'm doing well on you.

[Eric]

All right. What you got for us?

[Caller - Various]

My daughter is pregnant. Has she ever guessed the sex of a grandchild? Yes, I have, and that's where I was wrong.

[Eric]

Okay, so you don't want to give that a try here again?

[Caller - Various]

Boy. No, I'm sorry. It's a girl.

[Melissa]

Oh, no.

[Carl]

Strike two.

[Caller - Various]

I can't do that.

[Eric]

Okay.

[Jen]

Okay.

[Carl]

Let's go down swinging.

[Jen]

Well, it's not really, because she already said she didn't like the prediction of the grandparents.

[Eric]

We're gonna strike that one from the voice or.

[Caller - Various]

I like to see them.

[Eric]

Hey, Heather.

[Caller - Various]

Good morning.

[Eric]

Good morning. How are you today?

[Caller - Various]

Good. How are you?

[Eric]

All right. So you know the sex of your baby?

[Caller - Various]

Yes, I do.

[Eric]

Tell us a little bit about your pregnancy.

[Caller - Various]

Morning sickness. Horrible, horrible morning sickness. Just really bad.

[Jen]

How far along are you?

[Caller - Various]

30 weeks. Whitney, boy. She's right.

[Eric]

Right?

[Carl]

Oh, my God. It's amazing.

[Caller - Various]

He's right. I'm having a boy.

[Eric]

Jeff never feels better when he's making somebody not feel special.

[Caller - Various]

Hey, Jeff. It's 50. 50 right now. Just. Yeah.

[Carl]

Which is exactly what it should be.

[Eric]

We're gonna go through a couple more.

[Nicole Forrester]

She's got one right, one wrong.

[Eric]

What is your problem?

[Carl]

Just listen. Just hearing her out.

[Melissa]

He's mad because she's trying to take Jessica's. You know Jessica.

[Carl]

I never maintained Jessica had it.

[Eric]

Hey, Samantha. Good morning, Samantha. Never mind.

[Carl]

That was actually the sonogram you were listening to. There's the baby.

[Caller - Vegetarian Advice]

Moving on.

[Eric]

Based on the sonogram, is that a

[Carl]

boy or a girl?

[Eric]

Wendy, good morning. You're on Q100.

[Caller - Various]

Good morning.

[Melissa]

Good morning. Hello.

[Caller - Various]

I just found out last week that I'm pregnant. And so I'm not sure if she's going to be able to tell yet, but I was wondering if Whitney could tell me what I'm gonna be having.

[Eric]

Okay, so this is one we'll have to check back on here in a couple of weeks.

[Caller - Various]

Well, yeah, actually quite a few weeks. Barely. What'd you say? What was that?

[Eric]

I can't tell who's talking, Wendy or Whitney.

[Caller - Various]

Oh, I'm sorry. I'll stop now. Tell me, Whitney. Okay, so you're what, 11 weeks? No, I'm probably four weeks. Oh, my God. You found out real early. Yeah. Wow. You normally don't find out until.

[Nicole Forrester]

Well, she doesn't know yet.

[Eric]

She doesn't know the sex of the baby?

[Caller - Various]

She just don't know the sex? No, no, no. I just found. You're pregnant unless you're trying. You normally don't find out for at least two months. Well, we had gone off the pill, and then I missed my period, and so I took the test. But I'm going to the doctor next week, so. And that'll be my first.

[Eric]

So what was it? Whitney?

[Caller - Various]

Girl.

[Carl]

Girl.

[Melissa]

Okay.

[Caller - Various]

Yay. Thank you.

[Eric]

I wouldn't start buying pink just yet. I know. Wendy, don't go anywhere yet. We're gonna get your phone number, okay? Or not. Oh, no, she just.

[Carl]

Now she's gonna go. She thinks this girl is gifted. It is now gonna go. And if it's a boy, she's actually gonna be depressed in the doctor's office right now.

[Caller - Various]

It makes your head up. Let her be happy.

[Eric]

She's gonna sue us like d'. Amel. Good morning. Is it Megan?

[Caller - Various]

Yes.

[Carl]

Hi.

[Eric]

How are you?

[Caller - Various]

I'm good. I'm due any day. I'm due on Saturday.

[Eric]

You're due on Saturday and you do not know the sex of your baby?

[Caller - Various]

Correct. Whoa. Oh, it's a surprise. It's a surprise. Yeah, boy. Boy. That's what a lot of people have been saying.

[Eric]

Okay, then we will talk to you on Monday. Okay.

[Carl]

You sound like somebody who's been pregnant for 10 months.

[Caller - Various]

Yeah, I feel like the baby's not gonna come out until it's ready to go to college. Poor thing.

[Eric]

All right, Megan, let me put you on hold. We'll get your phone number and we'll call you on Monday. Okay? Okay, let's just take a couple more here real quick. Wendy, good morning.

[Caller - Various]

Good morning.

[Eric]

How are you?

[Caller - Various]

I'm well. I am five weeks pregnant.

[Carl]

Whitney.

[Eric]

Wendy is five weeks pregnant.

[Caller - Various]

Listener.

[Melissa]

Wendy.

[Caller - Various]

Wendy. That's pregnant.

[Eric]

Yes.

[Caller - Various]

Yeah. So there's Three of them, right?

[Eric]

Super.

[Melissa]

No, just two. Wendy here in the studio's not pregnant.

[Jen]

Not pregnant yet, but she can still predict what you're gonna have.

[Eric]

What do you have for a listener, Wendy?

[Caller - Various]

I don't know. I have to hear her a little bit more.

[Eric]

Okay, Wendy, tell us a little bit about your pregnancy.

[Caller - Various]

All right, well, I just found out, I guess a week ago, and I. I'm waiting to find out.

[Jen]

Are you feeling well?

[Caller - Various]

Yes, I'm feeling great. But I had no sickness with my first pregnancy either.

[Melissa]

So many women are mad at you.

[Caller - Various]

I had none my first time. In my second time, I was sick as a dog.

[Eric]

Whitney.

[Caller - Various]

Ah, I'm gonna say boy, boy, my husband will love you if you're correct.

[Eric]

You don't sound very confident in that one though, Whitney. Well, you don't sound very confident in that one.

[Caller - Various]

So when it's in person, and I told Tracy I could come in studio in December and do this, I have no time off until December.

[Carl]

You're that confident that you're willing to take use your time off to come in here?

[Caller - Various]

Yeah.

[Eric]

Okay, I'll take you. First of all, I want to check back in with everybody in a couple of weeks, but then we'll have you come back in in December because now you just sound surly about things.

[Caller - Various]

I have December 7th and December 8th off.

[Eric]

Okay, well, we will get you in here either December 7th or December 8th. It's gonna happen.

[Carl]

Is it December 7th? Pearl Harbor Day?

[Eric]

D day?

[Carl]

One of those. I think there's no better way to celebrate December 11th. Oh, sorry.

[Eric]

Let's get you back in here in December then. Okay.

[Caller - Various]

Okey dokey.

[Eric]

Okay, hold on.

[Jen]

She officially hates you.

[Eric]

She actually got mad, I think. Yeah, she actually got mad.

[Carl]

Why are you doubting my 5050 predictability test?

[Eric]

But if she does, if she can hit 10 of 11, it's impressive, then the odds would be, I mean, obviously greater than 50.

[Caller - Vegetarian Advice]

50.

[Carl]

But I maintain it is the. And the reason that I was giving her a hard time and the reason I gave Jessica a hard time is cause I maintain it's like doing a two month long coin flip deal with Burt. Like we flip the coin now, I call it, but we don't look at it for two months. Then Burt goes, oh, it's tails. You said it.

[Eric]

But here it's all documented, so you can't do that.

[Carl]

And December 7th is when it all

[Nicole Forrester]

comes to head, not D day.

[Eric]

Well, one we'll be able to check back with on Monday and find out if she was right at least over the phone. And then we'll bring her back in December. Cause now she sounds like she wants the challenge. Or she just doesn't want to listen to us ever, ever again.

[Carl]

The Burt Show.
