Look, I've Got money here for a raise, but it's not for both of you guys. I can pay one of you. So, like that, they turned on each other.
Co-host 1
And he got the power back. And he said, why don't you prove it to me? So they each had the chance to go and try to prove themselves in front of the boss for the race. So they were this united front. Like, wasn't it Thursday night over drinks, they came up with the plan. Friday, they're a united front in the boss's office. But as soon as he says that divided worked all weekend on their own, you know, pitches. And she said she had a better knowledge of PowerPoint.
Co-host 3
Got Caddy. I got a better PowerPoint presentation. Cause I know how to do PowerPoint.
Co-host 1
Exactly. So she thought hers was gonna be so much better. And they were going in yesterday to pitch for the Rays.

Radio Host
Okay. Please do. So what happened yesterday? You were all fired up. You knew this job was yours. You were PowerPointing it. This was yours to lose,
Sally
mine to win. But. Well, all I know is that my co worker, she went in first, as scheduled. And when I walked into my boss's office, I sat down and he said, have you been on the radio and talking about this?
Co-host 3
And, oh, no.
Sally
I was really surprised and didn't know what to say. So of course it came clean. I'm not going to lie. And I said, yes. And he asked, what station? And I said, why? And he just said, because he wanted to know. And that's all we talked about. And he didn't allow me to give him a presentation. He said, that will be all. And. And he told me to leave his office immediately.
Radio Host
Whoa.
Co-host 3

Co-host 2
who used to be your friend?
Co-host 3
Who used to be your friend?
Sally
Oh, I. I didn't even look at her. I was so grossed out and. Because I knew something had obviously gone down because. I don't know. I really didn't know she said, wow. So I don't even know if she made stuff up. She probably didn't because she's a lying whore.
Co-host 2
Oh, okay.
Radio Host
Oh, boy. Well, that's not gonna endear you to the boss right there. So you didn't call her anytime later on in the day and go, how'd it go while you were in there? You just assumed that she sold you out and then. Wow. And didn't talk to her about at all?
Sally
How else would he have known about me talking to you guys? I mean, it's just so from that
Co-host 1
you changed your name, you didn't say the company.
Co-host 3
We can't really call her a liar, though. She technically told the truth, right?
Co-host 1
It's true.
Radio Host
And we're technically. We don't know if she's a whore or not.
Sally
Yeah,
Radio Host
I think it's. I think I wish we could rewind to Friday when you guys were, like, you were ready to do this together, shoulder and shoulder. We are a teen there. Strength in numbers. And now she's a lion whore.

Co-host 1
Told you so, btw, Fail.
Sally

Sally
Yeah, okay.
Co-host 2
Do you think your boss is a whore?
Sally
No, he's a very nice man.

personal life is really anybody's business.

This episode of The Bert Show dives into a real-life workplace drama that unfolds live on air. Sally, a listener hoping for a raise, describes a bold plan she and a coworker cooked up: confront their boss as a united front and demand better pay. But things take a turn after the boss finds out Sally discussed company business on the radio. The hosts bring Sally and—surprise—her boss onto the show to unpack what happened, exploring betrayal, office politics, and the risks of mixing personal drama with public airwaves.
“If both of us threaten to quit, there’s no way the boss is gonna let us go… Oh, wow.”
— Host, about the optimistic but naïve united-front raise plan (01:28)
“He didn’t allow me to give him a presentation. He said, that will be all. And he told me to leave his office immediately.”
— Sally, realizing her radio appearance upended her plans (04:41)
“She’s a lying whore.”
— Sally, reacting emotionally to her coworker’s presumed betrayal (05:34). (Hosts react instantly with mock horror/teasing.)
“We told you not to, by the way.”
— Radio Host, referencing their previous advice against mixing radio with sensitive work issues (06:22)
“Learn a lot.”
— Sally, summing up her lesson from the debacle (06:28)
The show maintains its trademark banter, authenticity, and humorous approach, even as things get heated and a bit messy. The hosts handle the drama with empathy for Sally, but also poke fun and keep things light, providing both entertainment and (hard-earned) real-world wisdom about the blurred lines between personal and professional boundaries.
This episode is a classic workplace saga unfolding with all the unpredictability of live radio. As Sally’s best-laid plans unravel, the listener witnesses how quickly alliances can turn sour—and how talking about your job in a public forum can have real-world consequences. The Bert Show’s hosts strike a balance between teasing, tough love, and genuine curiosity, giving listeners both laughs and something to think about for their own work dramas.
