Host (possibly the main show host)
The Birch show hello Jessica.
Jessica
Hello.
Host (possibly the main show host)
How are you today?
Jessica
I'm good.
Host (possibly the main show host)
For those of you just checking us out today, we have been talking to Jessica and two of her best friends over the last couple of days and.
Co-host or commentator
Jessica's getting married in California here very soon. And of course just like any bride planning the wedding process, she was picking her wedding party but she's got two very bestest friends in the whole wide world and just could not decide between the two of them who who would be her maid of honor. So she called us to Kind of discuss it. And of course, the Burt show has to turn it into a competition, which we do with a lot of things. So we had the battle of the bridesmaids between her two bridesmaids that were up for contending for the position of maid of honor. So we talked to them each day. And we actually have a recommendation for you today, Jessica.
Jessica
Ooh.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Now, I'm assuming that you have been in contact with both Jenny and Andra over the last couple of days.
Jessica
I have, but we haven't. You know, they did say it went well. They had fun, but I just really, I didn't listen to it because I didn't want to be biased. I didn't want to think somebody was doing better than the other and be worried. So I just let you guys do it.
Co-host or commentator
Okay.
Host (possibly the main show host)
All right, well, let's play a little bit of the audio from both of them over the last couple of days, because what we did was we got Andrea on and we also got Jenny on, and we asked them the same questions and we just kind of sat back, listen to their answers, questioned them a little bit more, and. And then we put it into the hands of the listeners. We'll all give our opinions also. But there was definitely a clear cut winner.
Jessica
Really?
Host (possibly the main show host)
At least based on the email that I got.
Melissa
Correct.
Host (possibly the main show host)
I don't know about you. You too? You too, Jen.
Co-host or commentator
Yeah, I've got a couple of emails here, and yeah, it's pretty clear cut.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Okay. Did you get any? You won't even hear this.
Another co-host or commentator
No, but I got them. And only one person was mentioned.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Okay, here was a series of the questions and answers that we asked both of your potential maid of honors.
Melissa
Why did Jessica choose her fiance?
Jessica
Well, when we were young, we always used to say something that would be really important would be a man who treated his mother really well. And she told me that he has a lot of respect and has a wonderful relationship with his mother. And I think that sort of just shows that he's a really great guy and he's really, really cute.
Co-host or commentator
Jenny, I want to know how many times have you been a bridesmaid and how many weddings have you attended?
Jessica
I have been a bridesmaid only one time, and I've been to dozens and dozens of weddings.
Melissa
Two hours before this wedding, Jessica is panicking and she's getting cold feet. Jenny, I want to know, what do you do?
Jessica
Just tell her to think about all of the amazing reasons why she is with him and, you know, what brought her to this moment and the great things about their relationship.
Melissa
First question I have for you, Andrea, is. Why did Jessica choose her fiance?
Jessica
I. I think Doug is a very charismatic guy. He's like, the life of the party. He's charming, he's classy, and she just totally loves that.
Host (possibly the main show host)
On a scale of 1 to 10, this really feels like a 10 to you, this match?
Jessica
I would say. Yeah, I think it's pretty close. I don't think I've seen something that's been this good for a while. I mean, they seem to be in sync. Nothing is perfect in life, but I think that they're pretty much a nine.
Melissa
So let's say two hours before the wedding, Jessica is panicking and she's getting cold feet. So I ask you, what do you do?
Jessica
Well, actually, I think I would call Doug and, you know, get him over there and try to get Doug and Jessica together and talking and, you know, see if they can. You know, she really knows how wonderful he is, and he knows how wonderful she is, and they can kind of make a connection and maybe try to facilitate that. And, you know, I do the best that I could to make sure that they could come together, but if I can, I think I'd just pour her a drink.
Host (possibly the main show host)
All right, Jessica, so that was a decent sampling of some of the answers. Is there anything there that stands out to you?
Jessica
I think they both did really well. I can't believe you're saying there's one person who everybody likes better.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Yeah, let me get them both on here. This is Jenny's back with us. Hey, Jenny.
Jessica
Hey. Hi.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Hold on one second. Okay. Andreala, Good morning.
Jessica
Hey, how are you? I'm okay. How are you guys?
Host (possibly the main show host)
Good. Okay, all three are on at the same time now.
Jessica
Hey, girls. Now they sound nervous.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Who's nervous about finding out right now?
Jessica
I'm a little nervous.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Who is that? Is that Jenny or Andrea?
Jessica
That's Jenny.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Jenny.
Jessica
Me, too.
Host (possibly the main show host)
I'm nervous, too. No, I'm more nervous. No, I'm more nervous.
Another co-host or commentator
I'm the most nervous.
Jessica
Everything's a competition with us now, Jessica.
Host (possibly the main show host)
I'm going to have Melissa read off some more of the questions and answers that were asked of both of them before we tell you who the clear cut winner was.
Jessica
Okay.
Melissa
All right, one, we asked, what would Jessica and her new husband fight about during their marriage? And Jenny's response was that they're gonna fight about how many kids they want. And Andrea said that money would be the number one cause of the argument.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Does anyone sound more accurate than the other one there? Jessica?
Jessica
Well, I actually think it would be a third Thing.
Melissa
Okay.
Another co-host or commentator
Okie doke.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Yeah.
Jessica
I mean, I.
Bert
We.
Jessica
Well, it's, you know, our sex life, actually, I think, is what is sort of the ongoing conflict.
Melissa
Okay.
Jessica
I tend to be a little more adventurous than Doug.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Mm.
Jessica
So I don't. I think that is gonna be more of an issue than the kids. I mean, I think the other stuff is kind of a. We're kind of on the same page.
Commercial announcer
Okay.
Jessica
I mean, I think the kids thing will work itself out. And I don't, you know, maybe money is like a classic problem couples have, but I don't really think we have had that much of a problem with it.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Are the two of you sexually compatible?
Jessica
In what way?
Host (possibly the main show host)
Every.
Jessica
Like, he's a little more conservative than me. I. You know, actually, I'm surprised that they didn't know that because we've had conversations about the fact that it's like this big myth that men want it more than women. And I'm like, I don't know who came up with that idea.
Another co-host or commentator
Hey, keep this up, there might not even be a wedding.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Jenny. Andrea. Has she talked to you about that?
Jessica
Yeah, I just. That's kind of adventurous to say on the air.
Another co-host or commentator
I feel like we're on Family Feud and Bert just went show me doing it.
Jessica
Yeah, we did talk about it. I just, you know, I just figured that the finances is a. I mean, I think the physical thing that they could work out. I think the finances might be something, but that's just my feeling.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Hold on, hold on. That was Jenny saying that that was Andrea. That was Andrea. Jenny, how do you feel about that?
Jessica
Yeah, I just sort of figured that long term with their relationship, that was not necessarily going to be like a huge issue. And I just thought that, like, the future, in terms of how many kids they were going to have, I think that's. I mean, I hope she's right.
Another co-host or commentator
Maybe it's.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Maybe it's situation.
Jessica
I would like to not be fighting about that for my whole life.
Another co-host or commentator
Maybe it's a situation where you guys just aren't compatible, and then he starts paying for it and he uses up all your money on hookers, and then it's a finances issue.
Jessica
Oh, God.
Another co-host or commentator
It's possible.
Jessica
Yeah. Okay.
Host (possibly the main show host)
So did the two of you know that that was a problem and you just didn't want to go public with.
Jessica
It, and that's why you don't think it's a problem?
Host (possibly the main show host)
He doesn't think it's a problem. You think it's a problem?
Jessica
Yeah, he's fine because he's getting enough and she's not exactly. Exactly.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Gotcha. Okay.
Melissa
All right.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Wasn't expecting to go in that direction. That might. That might be a second tier to this when this is all over.
Melissa
So Jessica's also pointing out some of the questions we asked that had different answers. Another one was your ideal bachelorette party. Now, we asked Jenny that question, and she said we would go shopping in Atlanta, go clubbing, go to a hotel and have a stripper. And Andrea's response was that we party all the time. So she thought that a spa weekend where you guys could just chill out and relax with each other would be the best bachelorette party.
Another co-host or commentator
Nope. Having sex with her husband, who doesn't want to do it, is what she wants to do on her bachelorette party.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Jessica, if you had to give a score to one or the other there, who scored higher?
Jessica
I guess Jenny's a little bit closer because she has the stripper. I mean, I figure it's a bachelorette party. I want the whole shebang. You know, I want to go and, you know, just whoop it up and flirt and, you know, have a good time.
Another co-host or commentator
She is a freak kind of freak.
Jessica
My last chance.
Host (possibly the main show host)
All right, what else you got here? Take a leak.
Melissa
Another difference in the question was again about the wedding. What kind of music would be played at the reception? So Jenny said that the Cha Cha slide would be played, and as well as dance songs, she said, Jessica loves to dance. Andrea. I mean, it wasn't too far, you know, different. But she said Shakira, Gwen Stefani, Madonna, Eve. And then she said, you have to play, you know, what a Wonderful World somewhere at the reception.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Who nailed that one? So to speak.
Jessica
I guess they're both pretty close. I mean, you know, at first I was thinking I wanted. I went to a wedding and they had a big band and I thought that would be really cool. But then I thought, I just don't know if people are going to like that. So I just. I want just typical wedding music. I just want whatever's going to make them dance.
Host (possibly the main show host)
So it's a push here, right?
Melissa
All right, all right. One question about going back to you and your fiance. We asked what your first fight was about, and Jenny says she doesn't remember your guys first fight. And Andrea says that Doug was partying too much, and Jessica thought that is all he wanted to do. He went over the top and even passed out once at an intersection.
Another co-host or commentator
Ooh, that sounds like a fun story.
Jessica
Yeah, I don't really want to talk about that on the air. It's sort of embarrassing for him. I mean, I don't think that's what we had our first fight about. I think our first fight about was. Was probably something really stupid, but I don't remember what it was.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Which one answered that way? The drunk at the intersection.
Melissa
Andrea.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Andrea.
Co-host or commentator
Okay, that's not any more embarrassing than he can't satisfy you in the bedroom.
Jessica
No, he's not that. He doesn't satisfy me. Oh, my God. It's not that.
Another co-host or commentator
Just he doesn't satisfy you right now.
Host (possibly the main show host)
It's not. It's just, it's. It's quantity you're talking about. Quality is okay. Quantity.
Jessica
Exactly.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Well, maybe you ought to take him in an intersection.
Another co-host or commentator
He'd be sleeping.
Melissa
And the final one that we haven't covered is just how many times have you been a bridesmaid? Is what we asked each one, which was, I think, the defining moment for some of the listeners in my emails on their choice, Jenny says she has been to 25 weddings, only been a bridesmaid once. Andrea says she's been to six weddings and has been maid of honor four times and a bridesmaid twice.
Host (possibly the main show host)
That have any kind of bearing at all?
Jessica
Well, not so much on my choice. I would imagine it might be it make it easier for her to not be a maid of honor in mine because she's done it so much, in fact, she may even want a break, I don't know. But it doesn't, you know, it doesn't stop me from wanting to have both of them, you know.
Host (possibly the main show host)
So nothing was said here to make or break any way you were thinking you're still just as confused.
Jessica
I am. I honestly, I wish I could say one or the other, but there was.
Host (possibly the main show host)
A definite way this whole thing went, at least in my emails. And then I think we're all feeling the same thing. Melissa, you want to start it off here?
Melissa
Well, in my emails, you know, we'd ask listeners to let us know their choice. And overwhelmingly there was a vote for one person. I only got one vote for the other. So in my email, Jenny was the one that was the overwhelming vote. And I think for two reasons. One, because she's never been a maid of honor, and two, because they felt like her answers may match hers more and that she was more, you know, more not, I guess, more. I don't know, motivated is not the term that comes to mind, but I think just not as serious, not, you know, more fun. Like she'd be more fun. Maid of honor Jan Hobby.
Co-host or commentator
All right, here's a sample. One subject line Says, hi, Jen, I vote for Andrea. I love the Burt show. And this person says he was voting that way because he felt she was being real. Here's a sample of the emails about Jenny. It says, I chose Jenny because she was so sweet and seemed very sincere. It also seemed to me that Andrea already knew the questions, maybe by listening the day before, and that gave her longer to think about the answers. The reason I think this is because when you ask the question, what would make you think it wasn't just cold feet? And she started talking about him partying so much. Sounded like she was going to mention that there was a first fight and then said that she didn't want to skip ahead. So she thought maybe she knew the questions that were coming. And this was from listener Crystal, who says, I don't think it was very fair for Jenny, who had never heard the questions before.
Bert
Jeez.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Some people just.
Another co-host or commentator
Our listeners are listening. They're, like, looking for hairs in the backseat of the car right now.
Host (possibly the main show host)
So based on your emails, Jen, the.
Co-host or commentator
Majority did go to Jenny, although I thought it should be Andrea.
Jessica
Oh, thank you.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Well, that's the one vote you got, Actually, that was the one email that was sent to Melissa was from Jenny.
Co-host or commentator
Yeah, I emailed the rest of the.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Show, and I have to concur with both of them. Also, a sample here. Jenny stated from the beginning that as long as she is a part of her girl's day, whether it be a bridesmaid or a braid of maid of honor, she was going to be happy. Andrea seemed too hesitant with everything. I don't feel she would appreciate just being a bridesmaid. And the others that came in were pretty much like, you know, you've just known Jenny most of your life and she just kind of deserves it because she knows you better and she's been there from the start. And I'd say from the emails I got, it was probably 95% to 5%.
Jessica
Wow.
Host (possibly the main show host)
In favor of Jenny.
Jessica
Wow. Cool.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Now, I mean, you don't have to take our recommendation, Right. I mean, obviously you can veto that, but Andrea, is there anything that you feel like was Andrea. Andrea was misrepresented or.
Jessica
Oh, well, just because I'm smart doesn't mean I should be chastised. No, I just want to. You know, guys, I didn't plan ahead. I didn't get any questions ahead or anything. I meant skip ahead because I just figured there's a whole bunch of stuff coming up that you guys wanted to ask me. But, you know, I mean, I love you, Jess. And I. I agree. You know, whatever you want to do, honey, is fine with me. And, you know, I think I do know you pretty well. I'm sorry I mentioned the intersection, but I think that I recall that was the first one. I didn't know about your sex life as much as maybe I should have. I didn't want to mention it, really. But I love you. And, you know, I just want the best for you. Whatever you want to do. Thanks. You're so sweet. Thank you.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Thanks. Andrea, we're let you bail now, okay?
Jessica
Okay. I'll talk to you later, honey. Okay. Okay, bye.
Host (possibly the main show host)
All right, Jenny, Andrea's gone now. How you feeling about things?
Jessica
Me or Jenny?
Host (possibly the main show host)
Jenny.
Jessica
Oh, I'm really, really excited, and I hope that Jesse feels comfortable with this.
Another co-host or commentator
Did you offer Andrea a version of our home game?
Host (possibly the main show host)
I didn't. Got a whole bunch of Lee Press on nails for her and some turtle wags.
Melissa
Turtle wags.
Bert
Right.
Another co-host or commentator
So I thought that was just kind of rude how you hung up on her. And everybody else who participates gets to.
Melissa
Take home play the bird show at home.
Another co-host or commentator
The home version of Battle of the Bridesmaids.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Hey, Jenny, we're gonna let you go also, okay?
Jessica
Okay. Thank you.
Host (possibly the main show host)
All right. You want to make the offer?
Another co-host or commentator
Well, no. Jenny won, so she's like the.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Just go to the Showcase Showdown. Yeah.
Another co-host or commentator
If you get. You get to spin the big wheels. Ready, everybody? Oh, look at that. 80 cents. Good luck. See you, Jenny. How much does this box of dried potatoes worth?
Melissa
I get so scared that someone's gonna get caught in that wheel and flip underneath it, too.
Host (possibly the main show host)
I would never go on that show because I'm convinced I'm not tall enough to actually spin the wheel.
Another co-host or commentator
I was old man.
Melissa
Bob Barker won't let you do it. He'll do it himself.
Another co-host or commentator
You know, before we left on the.
Co-host or commentator
Trip, I had to play Plinko.
Another co-host or commentator
My parents. My parents were at the house and they were watching Price is Right. And it's still on?
Jessica
Yeah.
Melissa
Oh, yeah.
Another co-host or commentator
And it was. It's on at 11am so it was like 11 to noon or whatever. I think maybe 10 to 11. I don't know. They were watching it.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Bob's doing the show, but he hasn't been, like, alive in, like, seven years.
Another co-host or commentator
Oh, he's doing it like Weekend at Bernie's. Somebody walks him out. And the woman spun the wheel and it didn't go all the way around, which I guess is a requirement. And my mom yelled at the screen.
Co-host or commentator
That's one stage retirement. It's the Price is Right stage.
Another co-host or commentator
There you got mad. Oh, come on. Put your muscle into it.
Jessica
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop.
Melissa
I like the little yodeler, though. Didn't want him to quite go over the cliff.
Host (possibly the main show host)
No.
Another co-host or commentator
Because then it's done.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Jessica.
Jessica
Yeah.
Host (possibly the main show host)
All right, so, I mean, now you have at least the listener's recommendation. I think Melissa and I were in unison also. We thought that Jen was going to make the better.
Melissa
Yeah, I think that. Because from your standpoint, like, if they weren't on the phone, I would have said, look, it's the bridesmaid thing, the maid of honor thing. You know, Jenny's never been the maid of honor, and she's your oldest. Oldest friend. To me, I mean, that's the perfect choice.
Jessica
Yeah, you're right. You're right. I mean, I'm gonna really approach it as the fact that Andrea had. Has been a maid of honor before, and Jenny's never done it. And it's true. I mean, I. You know, I did meet her first, so if we're just gonna go for time, I can. You know, I hope Andrea can understand.
Co-host or commentator
I do want to make a quick pitch for Andrea, though, because I really think that it sounds to me she knows you better in your, like, everyday life and that that might be better in handling situations on the wedding weekend. Now, I do give Jenny credit for knowing you longer, but I would just make the pitch for Andrea in that way.
Jessica
Yeah, I know. That's why I was. I was surprised that Jenny did better because Andrea has more time with me in the last. You know, in the sort of later part of our friendship.
Bert
Right.
Co-host or commentator
Like, while you've been with your.
Jessica
As an adult. Yeah.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Well, either way, you have now you. I mean, you've got the scapegoat that you've wanted. I mean, you couldn't make the decision, so.
Jessica
And she's. She's definitely still going to be a bridesmaid. Of course. She just won't wear the same dress.
Host (possibly the main show host)
So you are going to pick Jenny?
Jessica
Yeah, I mean, I have to pick. I've already, like, passed my deadline, so I'm just gonna let you guys. Yeah, I'll just take your. I mean, why did we do this if not, you know, I think you.
Another co-host or commentator
Should jack with him and make up another game show and stick with the prices.
Jessica
Right. I'll be calling another radio station tomorrow. Well, I think you should.
Another co-host or commentator
You should invite them both over to your house tonight and then set up, like, your ironing board with four different products on it and.
Melissa
Oh, my God, you spent way too much time with your parents last week.
Another co-host or commentator
Like a can of chunky soup. There's like random things too. A bottle of shampoo.
Co-host or commentator
Can you please take him to compound.
Jessica
This weekend and cleanse him?
Melissa
You know way too much about this show. Once you run across the studio. Let me say your name.
Co-host or commentator
Jeff.
Melissa
And then you run around the studio.
Another co-host or commentator
And I'll run down. Okay, do it.
Melissa
Okay. And the next contestant on the Price is Right is.
Bert
Jeff.
Melissa
Dollar.
Jessica
Hi Bob.
Another co-host or commentator
One dollar. Hey.
Host (possibly the main show host)
You had the.
Melissa
You had the exact guest. So you get to take that hundred dollars out of my pocket because I'm a creepy old man.
Host (possibly the main show host)
Hey, Jessica, we're gonna let you go. Sorry about this tangent, but Jeff was homeschooled. Talk to you later. Bye bye.
Jessica
Bye bye.

Host: Bert and The Bert Show Cast (Kristin, Abby, Cassie, Tommy, Melissa, et al.)
This episode marks the finale of the “Battle of the Bridesmaids,” a week-long segment where Jessica, a soon-to-be bride, must choose between her two best friends, Jenny and Andrea, for the coveted Maid of Honor role. The Bert Show turned Jessica’s heart-wrenching decision into an on-air contest, having both friends answer questions about Jessica, her fiancé, and their friendship. Ultimately, the decision is heavily influenced by listener emails and the cast’s takes.
