  • Jennifer expresses anger and embarrassment:

    "I'm really angry at my husband... in his set he Photoshopped my body to look skinnier." (01:47)

    "People have started posting comments under the pictures saying, 'Wow, looks like you lost a couple pounds in a matter of hours.'" (02:27)

Hosts and Callers React

• Is there an innocent explanation? (03:00–03:49)
  • The male hosts speculate: maybe it was new photo-editing software experimentation, but quickly admit this is unlikely to be harmless in this context.
• Gendered perspectives emerge:
  • Several female hosts and callers express that self-editing is a personal choice, and a partner editing your body crosses a line (06:13).

    "If it's something I did myself...if I do it myself, it's one thing, but for your guy to do it for you, it’s a reflection of how they feel about your body." (06:13)

• Focus shifts to addressing the issue directly:
  • Most agree the central issue is his disregard for Jennifer’s feelings, lack of apology, and refusal to take down the altered photos (09:26–09:57).

Professional Perspective

• A professional designer weighs in on the emotional impact: (10:37)
  • Christopher (caller):

    "I would never do that to my wife because that just creates a doubt in her mind...Every single time, then it would just have this uneasiness where she would just think that I'm not satisfied with her or I'm not happy with her." (10:40)

  • Explains the long-term risk of undermining trust and creating insecurity in a relationship.

Resolution & Next Steps

• Group consensus on desired outcome (11:36–12:24)
  • Jennifer wants a genuine apology and for the pictures to be removed:

    "I want an apology, and I want him to remove the picture." (12:07)

  • She clarifies she does not want a public apology, just a sincere private one:

    "I just want him to tell me that he didn't mean it and that he likes me the way I look and, you know, get rid of them." (12:24)

• Hosts offer a playful ultimatum
  • If the husband refuses, the team will help Jennifer alter his photos for revenge, with support from the professional designer caller (11:55–13:36).

No voice disguiser because I mean, why need a voice disguiser? She looks great in all the pictures that are out there. She doesn't have to hide her identity. Hey Jennifer, how are you?

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

I'm good. How are you?

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Good. Share your fascinating story with us.

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

Oh God, this is so embarrassing. So I'm really angry at my husband. We went to Hawaii two weeks ago. It was a great trip, like a perfect trip. And we get back and of course posted pictures on Facebook, right? But in his set he photoshopped my body to look skinnier.

[Caller/Listener 1]

Oh my God.

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

So now on people's walls there are photos back to back of me where I'm clearly skinnier in his set.

[Caller/Listener 2]

Oh, my God. Did he tell you he was gonna do it?

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

No, he didn't. And it's totally embarrassing.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Have you. Yeah, I was gonna say, have you had any discussion with him about it or.

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

Yeah, I'm furious. I told him that was completely humiliating. And he said it totally wasn't a big deal and I was completely overreacting. But people have started posting comments underneath the pictures saying, wow, looks like you lost a couple pounds in a matter of hours.

[Caller/Listener 3]

Stop it.

[Caller/Listener 2]

No. Can you get him to pull him down?

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

I just don't understand why he would do it.

[Caller/Listener 3]

He didn't give you an explanation?

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

No, he said he touched himself up, that it wasn't a big deal. But I mean, there's a huge difference.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Now. Is this what he does for a living? Like, is he a photographer or a graphic art.

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

Oh, he's a computer programmer now.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Is there a chance

[Caller/Listener 2]

because.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

And I'm doing the male perspective here, because I'm just saying what guys like to do. Like when I get new software, regardless of what it is. Right. I like to play with it. So maybe he got new photo editing software and he just wanted to. I mean, it was different than what I did. Cause I gave, like, Jessica and I both black eyes and threatened to post them on Facebook so people would think we were in a bad marriage. But, like, I have done that on photo. Like, I've changed hair color. Like just different color eyes. Random stuff.

[Caller/Listener 3]

Well, that's on Photoshop. You're not posting them anywhere for anybody to see your creative work on your new software.

[Caller/Listener 1]

And Photoshop's been around for a long time.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Yeah, but like new versions or you get it or whatever. So maybe he.

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

This was like my ass and my legs. I think it's a little different.

[Caller/Listener 2]

Jennifer, are you feeling like he's got more issues with your body than you thought?

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. Obviously he thinks I'm too heavy or

[Caller/Listener 2]

whatever to share with his friends.

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

Yeah, but I mean, I had already posted the pictures, so now literally on people's walls, they're back to back.

[Caller/Listener 1]

So I just don't get if he

[Caller/Listener 3]

was embarrassed, why then why would he even post the pictures in the first place?

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

Why would she tell me not to post mine at the same time?

[Host (The Birch Show)]

So the delay. Are there any situations where the pictures are identical? Like it's the same exact picture?

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

Yes. Same bikini, obviously, the same day.

[Caller/Listener 1]

So when you've updated it, basically for those who don't do Facebook, So when you've updated your photos and he's updated his. Like, if I'm friends with both of you, I go to my Facebook page and they are stacked one on top of the other.

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

Exactly, exactly.

[Caller/Listener 1]

You can see the. It's like a before and after picture.

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

Right. And people are making fun of me. I mean, obviously close friends are being as kind as possible, but, I mean, I find this completely humiliating and that obviously he does have a problem with my body.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Okay, now, before we start talking about how you're going to talk to your husband and what the process is, what would prevent you from perhaps just taking your pictures down and enjoying the better version of you that he has created.

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

Well, first of all, that makes me think that the better version is his version, which is not really me. You know, Also, he thinks that I'm being completely crazy.

[Caller/Listener 2]

Well, I don't think you're being completely crazy at all. And I'm surprised that he. Yeah, I'm surprised he's that defensive about it.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

But if you. I'm just.

[Caller/Listener 2]

I think if. I mean, I think if he did it and it was a mistake and he didn't know you were posting yours and it was sort of a mix up in communication, I would think he'd be doubled over to himself, apologizing and then taking him down. I'm just surprised he's defensive.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Our phone number's 404-741-Q100. And your phone calls are always welcome. But I'm just from the guy's point of view, asking women, like, why wouldn't you want the better pictures out there?

[Caller/Listener 2]

No, not unless you did it yourself. If it's something I did myself, if it's a bikini picture, I did it myself. And maybe I make my thighs a little thinner or whatever. If I do it myself, it's one thing, but for your guy to do it for you, it's a reflection of how they feel about your body. If there's something embarrassing that they don't want to share with their friends or their family about your body. And this is her husband moving past the man who's supposed to love her the most.

[Caller/Listener 1]

Are you obligated to. Do you really believe what you're saying?

[Host (The Birch Show)]

I'm just throwing it out there. Moving past the fact that he did it. Like, let's separate the two issues. We're gonna address the conversation.

[Caller/Listener 2]

What I'm saying is it's not that he did it. It's his defensive reaction to it and not saying. Not apologizing for it and trying to fix it.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Okay, but let's address that in a second.

[Caller/Listener 2]

Okay.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Initially, why wouldn't you guys, if you were in her situation, just take your pictures down and let the better looking you live on the Internet.

[Caller/Listener 3]

Well, she might think the normal pictures are her. She's fine with her body. She doesn't have a problem with the way she looks.

[Caller/Listener 1]

You're assuming the better looking is the one he Photoshop.

[Caller/Listener 3]

She doesn't have a problem with the original pictures.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Hey, Melissa, welcome to the bird show. Sorry, go ahead, Melissa.

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

Hi. Now, I was saying, I know this is going to sound a little outrageous, but what she should do is take a before and after photo of his penis and do the same thing.

[Caller/Listener 2]

Oh, my Lord. Well, I don't know if you need

[Host (The Birch Show)]

to go that far and Photoshop it. Hey, listen to Jennifer. She's laughing.

[Caller/Listener 2]

I do think posting a really bad picture of him on Facebook and being like, oh, what do you mean?

[Host (The Birch Show)]

But he didn't post bad pictures.

[Caller/Listener 2]

Well, he posted something.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

No, it's not. He posted good pictures.

[Caller/Listener 1]

Why are you defending him?

[Caller/Listener 3]

It's not good. She thinks she's good right now. Her body looks fine.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Jennifer, do you think you look better in the pictures that he altered?

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

No, I am absolutely fine with my body and I'm offended that he isn't.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Hey, Maria, welcome to the bird show.

[Caller/Listener 2]

Me too.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Hey, how are you?

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

Good, and you?

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Good. What's going on?

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

I'm kind of on his side about it. I think if he would have put him on there normal, she would have been mad thinking she didn't like them. She fixed them. She should be happy.

[Caller/Listener 3]

No, she posted the original pictures though. Like, she already posted them at the same time.

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

She wasn't embarrassed.

[Caller/Listener 3]

She's not embarrassed of the original pictures at all.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Hey, women have their hearts set on revenge. Hey, Kathy, welcome to the show.

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

Yes, thank you.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

How are you?

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

I'm great. I think that she should Photoshop him with a beer belly.

[Caller/Listener 2]

Yes, I think that's a great idea. Do it, do it, do it.

[Caller/Listener 1]

Well, it's. But I mean, instead. But that's. That is embarrassing him in front of people or whatever. And the issue is that she's offended that he altered her to look, you know, like the way he wanted her to look rather than the way she looks. It's offensive. It's hurtful.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Well, I was.

[Caller/Listener 2]

He put like his head on, like a model's body, like a Calvin Klein

[Host (The Birch Show)]

model's body in the same. In the same vacation picture.

[Caller/Listener 2]

Yeah.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Hey, Jennifer, do you have any friends who could do Photoshop stuff?

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

Because we could maybe do, but, I mean, the whole point was we're married, and I didn't think we were supposed to do that kind of stuff to each other.

[Caller/Listener 2]

It's much more fun to talk about, though.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

What are. How have the conversations you've had with him so far gone?

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

Well, he just totally thinks that this is not a big deal and that he touched himself up, too, and that, you know, he made me look good and that I just really. I'm being totally ridiculous and self conscious and, you know, I mean, women's bodies were so sensitive and he knows I'm sensitive, and I just. I'm just embarrassed in front of my friends and family and, you know, I just really wish he would have apologized instead of just defending it and saying it wasn't a big deal.

[Caller/Listener 2]

So which route are you going with, like, silent treatment right now or what?

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

Oh, totally. Yeah, absolutely.

[Caller/Listener 2]

That's the route I would go in this situation, too. Because you've already approached him about it. He didn't apologize, he defended himself. So what are you left to right?

[Hers Weight Loss Advertiser]

Hey.

[Caller/Listener 2]

Silence. Silent silence.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Did she address it on Facebook via status message or comments or anything?

[Caller/Listener 1]

What are you gonna say?

[Host (The Birch Show)]

I don't know.

[Caller/Listener 1]

I mean, I don't know.

[Caller/Listener 2]

I certainly wouldn't be cooking him dinner.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Hey, I mean, if she needs to be giving him any, she needs to be thinned out. Anyways, in the picture, she might want to be considering having dinner.

[Caller/Listener 3]

You're black.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Hey, Brandon, did you hear that? Hey, Christopher. Welcome to the bird show.

[Christopher (Graphic Designer Caller)]

Hey, how's it going?

[Host (The Birch Show)]

What's going on?

[Christopher (Graphic Designer Caller)]

I was just gonna say my. My wife. I'm a professional graphic designer. I would never do that to my wife because that just creates a doubt in her mind that every time she looks at me, every single time, then it would just have this uneasiness where she would just think that I'm not satisfied with her or I'm not happy with her. And after a while, it'll just eat at her and eat at her. It'll just really. It can potentially really damage a relationship.

[Caller/Listener 1]

Yeah, smart man.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Because you start to think that he's photoshopping you every time he looks at you in his mind.

[Christopher (Graphic Designer Caller)]

Well, mentally, it creates a fantasy. That's just not true. And for him, living a fantasy in your relationship is just not healthy.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Hey, Christopher, can we put you on hold and get your information? Because I have an idea. We may need to use your graphic design skills.

[Christopher (Graphic Designer Caller)]

Sure.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

All right, hold on.

[Christopher (Graphic Designer Caller)]

Cool.

[Caller/Listener 3]

What's your idea?

[Caller/Listener 2]

Some sort of revenge?

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Yeah, Jennifer, I think we have to come up. I think you have to go after. You have to say something to your husband tonight. You have to insist that he takes them down and he apologizes to you and he removes them or something. We'll figure it out. If he doesn't, then I think you send us a picture of him and we send it to Christopher and have him manipulate it.

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

Done. Good idea.

[Caller/Listener 2]

Love it. She's on board.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

So what do you need to get from him tonight in order for us to make this all go away? Just an apology. Do you want him to remove the pictures? Do you?

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

I want an apology, and I want him to remove the picture.

[Caller/Listener 3]

Agreed.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Does the apology have to be.

[Caller/Listener 2]

It's a genuine apology, right? Yes.

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

That might include, I don't know, say, a gift.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Ha ha. So he doesn't have to. Does he have to publicly apologize, like on Facebook or just to you?

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

No, no. I don't want to make a bigger stink of this publicly than it already has become. You know, I just want him to tell me that he didn't mean it and that he likes me the way I look and, you know, get rid of them.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

And you can't tell him that the reason you want the apology is because we're gonna torture him if he doesn't do it.

[Caller/Listener 1]

No, no, because you don't tell him because she really kind of wants the torture, I think. And I doubt he's gonna give an authentic apology because if he was going to, he already would have. He doesn't feel bad about it.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

I. I understand where he's coming from. I don't necessarily agree with it, but the Photoshopped Jessica. Uh, well, yeah, like I said, black eyes and changing hair color and stuff.

[Caller/Listener 3]

But you wouldn't dare make her skinnier and post him on Facebook.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Uh, exactly. Make myself skinnier. I'm not gonna focus on her. Anybody's gonna look better in our vacation photo. It's gonna be me. Come on, Wendy. All right, Jennifer, so you approach him however you want tonight, but you have to join us again tomorrow and tell us how satisfied you are at his response. And if it's not satisfactory, if it's not satisfactory to you, then we will use our graphic designer resources and you can send us some pictures, and we'll brainstorm a way to Photoshop him.

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

All right, that's a deal.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

All right, cool. Thanks, Jennifer.

[Jennifer (Caller with Photoshop Story)]

Thank you.

[Host (The Birch Show)]

Oh, it's gonna be fun. It's gonna be fun.

[Caller/Listener 3]

I know. She's saying I'd be too.

This year's girls trip to Telluride was the best. We one upped ourselves with my Sapphire Preferred card and with 5 times points on Chase Travel, plus 3 times points on vacation homes with top brands, we got this incredible cabin.

[Caller/Listener 2]

It was a mansion.

[Spin Quest Promoter]

And with three times the points on dining, we ordered a wagyu steak dinner

[Caller/Listener 2]

and that pistachio gelato was too good.

[Spin Quest Promoter]

So where should we go next year?

[Caller/Listener 2]

I've got ideas.
