Main Theme & Purpose

The episode centers around an update (or lack thereof) on a listener who previously tipped off her ex-boyfriend’s new girlfriend’s husband about their secret exchanges. The team discusses whether she’s truly found “closure” and debates the motivations, implications, and fallout of getting involved in someone else’s relationship drama.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. The Update: Did She Really Move On? (01:04–02:26)

• The listener calls in to clarify she did not contact her ex or his new girlfriend further; she simply sent the evidence to the husband and stepped back.
  • “I just feel like I delivered the information and anything from here on out is just sort of too much drama that I don’t need in my life.” – Listener (01:22)
• She notes two notable outcomes:
  • The wife deleted her Facebook and Twitter accounts.
  • Her ex left a voicemail, criticizing her for interfering:
    • “Why don’t you mind your own business? Why don’t you want anyone to be happy? You should have...left us alone.” – Ex’s voicemail, relayed by Listener (02:03)

2. Satisfaction and Closure (02:26–03:13)

• The hosts challenge the listener’s claims that she doesn’t want more drama or information. They suggest her actions reveal she does care about the aftermath:
  • “You’ve created enough crap to where you can be satisfied with what you did worked.” – Host (02:35)
• Host frustration with lack of details:
  • “But I want closure. I need to do anything else.” – Host (02:42)
  • “How about us and our needs?” – Host (02:47)

3. Social Media Fallout & Speculation (03:13–04:19)

• The team speculates about the deleted social accounts as evidence of serious fallout.
• They question if the husband had any visible online reaction.
  • “Have you looked at the husband on Facebook or Twitter?” – Host (03:19)
  • Listener admits she hasn’t checked; unsure if the husband is active online.

4. Listener Reactions & Callers' Perspectives (03:41–05:21)

• Caller Bobby pokes fun at the contradiction between the listener’s words and actions:
  • “I just think this is hilarious that she goes through all this trouble...and then she turns around on the radio and says this is drama she doesn’t need in her life right now.” – Bobby (03:43)
• The team continues dissecting the motivations and how the delivery of the “evidence” might create uncertainty and doubt in the relationship:
  • “You stirred it up just enough to really get what you wanted.” – Host (04:39)
  • “You created the drama, and now you’ve created doubt, which is really all you needed.” – Host (04:43)
  • They discuss how bold it is to deliver the info in person, and how that act alone would make anyone suspicious:
    • “If somebody came up to our table and gave me an envelope, then I’d be like, well, I mean, because that takes a lot to do that, you know?” – Host (04:59)

5. Wrapping Up

• The segment ends with the hosts thanking the listener for the “closure” (even if it wasn’t full closure for everyone):
  • “All right, Maggie, thank you for tying it up for us. Sorta.” – Host (05:17)

[A]

The Burt Show.

[D]

Hey.

[E]

Hey. How are you?

[D]

Good. How are you?

[E]

Good. Now, my assumption here is that you took the easy way out and you handled the texts instead of calling the number that you didn't recognize.

[D]

Well, I'll tell you, I sort of didn't even do. I didn't do either. I didn't call the number back and I didn't call my ex back either.

[F]

Okay.

[D]

I just feel like I delivered the information and anything from here on out is just sort of too much drama that I don't need in my life. And I feel like I got, you know, I guess my revenge. I gave the husband the information and. Yeah, so this is a.

[E]

This is a non. Update update.

[D]

Well, sort of. There are. There are two things. One, the wife, she deleted her Facebook and her Twitter account.

[F]

Okay.

[G]

All right.

[F]

Because you said you're oddly obsessed with her and had been looking her up on Twitter and Facebook. And so since then, you've tried to look her up and she's not there.

[D]

She's not there.

[F]

Okay.

[D]

And also, my ex left me a voicemail message and said, why don't you mind your own business? Why don't you want anyone to be happy? You should have, you know, forgotten about it and, you know, lived your own life and left me alone and left us alone. So something definitely went down between them. I just. I don't know details.

[E]

Okay, so let's. Let's be honest here. You're sort of putting yourself on a pedestal, saying you're better than wanting to see the results. Like, you don't really need that, but you got the results.

[F]

Yeah.

[E]

Like, you know, you've created enough Crap to where you can be satisfied with what you did worked.

[D]

Exactly. Okay.

[F]

But I want closure. I need to do anything else.

[B]

I don't have my personal closure.

[A]

I know what happened.

[E]

How about us? How about us and our needs?

[F]

But if you think about it, what you delivered to the husband was exchanges on Facebook between your ex and his new girlfriend. So the fact that she took down her Facebook page to me shows that he got pretty peeved about it, don't you think?

[E]

So when there are some repercussions. Yeah, you know, some of them. But that's good enough for you. You don't need to know the. All the details.

[D]

Yes.

[H]

Have you looked up the husband?

[D]

I don't need to do it again.

[F]

Psycho is temporary.

[H]

Have you looked at the husband on Facebook or Twitter?

[D]

No, I haven't, actually. No.

[H]

Okay. I was just wondering if he had, you know, if he had accounts, if he had taken his down, too.

[D]

I don't know.

[H]

Or if he had posted on those accounts.

[D]

I'm guessing he didn't, but I don't even know if he actually has counts, so here's Bobby.

[E]

Hey, Bobby.

[G]

Hey, guys. Good morning. Love the show.

[E]

Thank you, sir.

[G]

I just think this is hilarious that she goes through all this trouble to go through Facebook and Twitter and all this trouble to find out what this woman's doing, and then she turns around on the radio and says, this is drama she doesn't need in her life right

[H]

now.

[F]

You understand women. No, I don't want to go back to something you just said, though. You said you don't know if he has accounts. Well, he has to have a Facebook account to post on her wall. I mean, you knew that.

[H]

No, her ex had post on her.

[D]

Her.

[H]

I was asking about the husband.

[F]

Oh, okay. I thought you were asking about her ex.

[H]

No, I was asking about the husband.

[D]

Yeah, I thought it was a husband.

[E]

Here's Theresa. Good morning, Theresa.

[G]

Good morning.

[E]

Morning.

[G]

Yeah, my comment on that right there is it's kind of a good thing that she didn't follow up on it. That way, the ex don't know exactly who might have done it. And then he also might be thinking, too. Huh? Are they more about this person than I really know? Has she done it before?

[E]

It's just enough. You stirred it up just enough to really get what you wanted.

[A]

I mean, you.

[E]

You created the drama, and now you've created doubt, which is really all you needed.

[F]

I mean, and if I was him. Him. And I mean, you were bold enough to come to our dinner table to deliver this, then something's, you know, I would be like, well, something's going on for you to do that.

[E]

If a woman goes that.

[F]

If somebody came up to. Somebody came up to our table and gave me an envelope, then I'd be like, well, I mean, because that takes a lot to do that, you know, Somebody's gonna do that on a line.

[E]

Like you would almost assume that it was.

[F]

Yeah, there's something in this because you would not do this for no reason, you know.

[E]

All right, Maggie, thank you for tying it up for us. Sorta.

[D]

Thanks.

[E]

Okay. Bye. Bye.

[A]

Hey, it's Ryan Reynolds here from Mint Mobile. Now, I was looking for fun ways to tell you that Mint's offer of unlimited Premium Wireless for $15 a month is back. So I thought it would be fun if we made $15 bills, but it turns out that that's very illegal. So there goes my big idea for the commercial. Give it a try at mintmobile. Com.

[B]

Switch upfront payment of $45 for three months, $90 for six months, or $180 for 12 month plan required $15 per month equivalent taxes and fees. Extra initial plan term only greater than 50 gigabytes. Me slow when network is busy. See terms.
