Podcast Summary: "Vault: We Doubt This New Relationship Will Last Longer Than A Month"

Podcast: The Bert Show
Date: January 5, 2026
Episode Theme:
An unfiltered round-table debate about Phil’s new and tumultuous relationship with Mary Kay. The hosts and callers question whether a relationship filled with early-stage passionate arguments is doomed or destined for something deeper. The exchange is candid, humorous, and a little bit chaotic—classic Bert Show chemistry.

---

Main Theme and Purpose

The episode investigates Phil's new relationship with Mary Kay, which is off to a rocky start due to frequent, heated arguments. The cast discusses whether this level of passion and drama early on signals trouble or simply marks an intense connection. Opinions are divided, and playful ribbing abounds as the group explores what makes relationships last (or fail). The conversation is peppered with personal anecdotes, listener calls, and a recreation of Phil's most recent relationship fight for comedic (and possibly therapeutic) effect.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. The State of Phil & Mary Kay's Relationship

• Background: Phil has been dating Mary Kay for four months; they're already exchanging "I love yous," but it's a “tumultuous” rollercoaster with frequent, fiery fights—mostly fuelled by nights out drinking.
  • “He’s reenacting arguments with random women just to prove to himself that he wasn’t wrong with the last fight that he was in with Mary Kay.” (E, 01:33)
• Arguments: Some fights have gotten “vicious,” with harsh words spoken that Phil later regretted.
  • Phil insists it’s “not as bad as we make it out to be,” but admits that words have been said that shouldn’t have been.

2. Panel Debate: Are Early Relationship Fights a Red Flag?

• Jen’s Optimism: Early passion equals passionate fights; she sees it as a normal, even healthy sign.
  • “In the early stages of a relationship, you’re passionate, you’re head over heels. So your fights are gonna be passionate and over the top...” (B, 03:58)
  • Jen bets Phil and Mary Kay will marry: “Yeah, I think he’s going to marry her.” (B, 04:23)
• Bert’s Skepticism: If they're fighting intensely so soon, it’s a serious concern.
  • “If you’re fighting like cats and dogs in the first four months… big time, red flag.” (E, 04:38)
  • Bert gives the relationship “56 days and counting.” (E, 05:05)
• Humor and Sarcasm: The panel’s teasing veers into jokes about being ‘players’, dating in the radio business, and even a hip replacement from chasing women.
  • “Not a ton of hot chicks up in Rome there, Philly.” (F, 06:04)
  • “I'll tell you this—nothing makes me more disgusted… just hearing these guys bragging… That’s never been me.” (A, 06:31)

3. Listener and Cast Call-Ins & Examples

• Listeners Weigh In:
  • Lisa: “The arguments... are totally normal in some relationships. I have a couple friend... without that kind of drama, they wouldn’t be together.” (G, 08:11)
  • Michelle: Points out the panel is being hard on Phil; hard times are part of any relationship. (G, 08:57)
  • Omar: Shared how frequent arguments during his engagement didn’t ruin things—now married and expecting a child. (I, 14:52)
• Crash and Lady Crash: Referenced as a couple that “needs that drama” to function (throwing a wedding ring in a tip jar!) (E, 08:38 & F, 08:43)

4. Phil’s “Field Research”: Reenacting the Fight (11:46–14:35)

• Bit Setup: Phil goes to a bar, finds a woman who looks like Mary Kay, and reenacts his argument for an “outsider’s” perspective.
  • His premise: “I need some help because I have been getting in these stupid arguments with my girlfriend… Was I right or was I wrong?” (A, 11:25)
• Reenactment: Phil (role-playing himself) approaches the woman (“Mary Kay”) at a bar and launches into a profanity-laced confrontation about her talking to other men.
  • “Are you serious? I take you out to the bar, we're partying… and you're over here talking to a couple of guys. Who the f— are these guys?” (A, 12:33)
  • Accusations escalate to: “Are you having sex? You are sitting there f—ing them with your eyes, aren’t you?” (A, 13:11)
  • After the woman’s stunned silence, Phil asks, “So how do you think I reacted?”
  • The cast’s response: “Insane.” (B, 13:50)
• Phil clarifies: He’s never used such harsh language with Mary Kay in real life: “I swear to God, I’ve never cussed like that at Mary Kay… I swear on the tattooed cross on my ankle.” (A, 14:07 & 14:21)

5. Personal Stories & Relationship Philosophy

• Player Past vs. Relationship Guy: Jokes and ribbing about who on the show was/is a “player.”
  • “Bert was a player back in the day, and I bet he was a jerk.” (B, 07:02)
  • Bert confesses: “I was a total ass… I was really enjoying just, like, doing stupid things with women that I had no intention of being with for the rest of my life. And I loved it.” (E, 07:06)
• Relationship Preferences: Phil and Jeff both say they’re “relationship guys,” preferring commitment over casual flings.

6. Meta-Commentary on Sharing Relationship Drama

• Question posed: Does talking about the drama on the radio mean Phil actually cares more about fixing the relationship?
  • Listener argues: “If you’re talking about it, that means you have a concern with it, so you’re probably gonna want to work to fix it than you will to throw it out.” (G, 09:20)

[Bert]

The Birch show we are so into Phil Tyranna's head right now with Mary Kay and his relationship with Mary Kay that I was just telling these guys how we're so into your head about this relationship with you and Mary Kay. You don't say that he's like reenacting arguments with random women just to prove to himself that he wasn't wrong with the last fight that he was in with Mary Kay. This has started up again is I'm sure if you're listening this late, you don't listen like at 6:15 in the morning. But Phil has been dating Mary Kay now for about four months and they're all exchanging the L word and it comes out of his mouth very easily. In fact, go ahead and tell her right now that you love her.

[Phil Tiranna]

I do.

[Melissa]

And they went to Vegas together. Took their big trip, you know, together.

[Jeff]

That was our first Idiot's guide. Yeah, it was Idiots guide to traveling with his girlfriend.

[Phil Tiranna]

You'd Be surprised how many of the idiots guides to traveling with a girlfriend. Our first time traveling in a relationship. How many? I used to. Yeah, you would be surprised. I literally made a list of them before I left and I took about four or five of those to heart the entire time.

[Bert]

Well, before we get too much off the subject here, they have kind of like this tumultuous relationship. Almost like they just are arguing all the time and they're fighting all the time. Usually it's alcohol and dude, it's not.

[Phil Tiranna]

It's not as bad. It's not as bad as we make it out to.

[Bert]

See, this is Mary Kay talking now, speaking through Phil.

[Phil Tiranna]

I was gonna say. No, it's not as bad as. I mean, we make it out to be. Our problem is we'll go out and we'll start drinking and the next thing you know we are arguing about the most stupid subjects.

[Melissa]

So they're pretty vicious though. They can be. I mean, there was harsh words are said in those fights.

[Phil Tiranna]

Yes. And specifically there was one fight where harsh words were spoken that I look.

[Bert]

At you tiptoeing now. You know, she's.

[Phil Tiranna]

No, I don't know.

[Bert]

This is a different film than we.

[Phil Tiranna]

Heard the other day, I'll admit to you. Yes, it is. No, it's not. She didn't even hear any of this. She hasn't heard any of any of the breaks we've done about this.

[Melissa]

That her friends told her something.

[Jeff]

She's joining the rest of the significant others by not listening.

[Jen]

She's listening and we like it.

[Phil Tiranna]

I just don't want it to make. I just wanted to understand. I'm happy. I'm having a great time with Mary Kay. And yes, we do argue. And yes, there have been arguments where words were said that probably shouldn't have been said.

[Bert]

So we get into this debate the other day and Jen hobbies of the camp that it's great. I mean, when you start off this relationship and you love each other so much and you're so passionate that those fights.

[Jeff]

Don't mock me.

[Bert]

I'm not. Am I putting words in your mouth?

[Melissa]

I mean, it's accurate, but you're being dramatic about it.

[Jeff]

You're mocking me.

[Bert]

Go ahead, state your case.

[Jeff]

My case is that in the early stages of relationship, you're passionate, you're head over heels. So your fights are gonna be passionate and over top. You do have to be careful about what words you use during those arguments. But I think it's fine. I think there's so many trust issues and insecurities at the beginning of a relationship that you guys are. Fine, you're passionate, so you're passionately fighting. And I think that you're going to marry her.

[Bert]

I'm in a different camp. On.

[Jen]

Hold on. What was the last.

[Bert]

She said that yesterday.

[Jeff]

Yeah, yeah, I think he's going to marry her.

[Melissa]

Did she say that on the air?

[Jen]

Yeah. How long do you think the marriage will last?

[Jeff]

Oh, come on.

[Jen]

Forever.

[Melissa]

Anyway, so, Bert, your time. I mean, your turn. Oh, yeah, your time.

[Bert]

My take on the whole thing.

[Jen]

You have 90 seconds for rebuttal, Mr. Weiss. Go ahead.

[Bert]

My take is that, look, the first couple of months of your relationship is the courting period. It never gets any better than the first six months. Yes, you're passionate about each other, you can't wait to see each other, but you're also on your best behavior. So if you're fighting like cats and dogs in the first four months of the relationship, big time, red flag that this thing is not going to work. And unlike Jen, who thinks that they're gonna be married happily forever for the rest of their lives, I have now, given the relationship, I think we're down to 56 days and counting.

[Phil Tiranna]

Now.

[Bert]

You're going up.

[Phil Tiranna]

Yesterday you said 55.

[Bert]

Yeah. The longer I talk to you, each and every conversation, that number changes, and it goes down like it started at 60 yesterday. And by the end of the conversation, I think it was at 50.

[Phil Tiranna]

I think by the time we get back from vacation, I'll be down to 12 days.

[Jen]

I just want to know, because Jan is so certain they're gonna get married. I mean, there's also, like, if you sat down and thought, I mean, you're Phil Tirana from the radio. You know, you're, you know, Wild Bills. You're at Vision. You know, you can be Mountain as.

[Bert]

Often as you want, nod in your head. No, no. Back and forth about Jen.

[Jeff]

I'm just saying that's such a frivolous reason for you to want to break them up.

[Jen]

I don't want to break them up. I'm just saying that, like, you're in this relationship that has so much tension and so much anger and there are so many people that you can just tag it and forget about it. And so, like, are you gonna tap into that before you get married, or.

[Phil Tiranna]

I've never subscribed to that theory. I've never. I've never played the radio card. I've never.

[Bert]

Well, up until this point, you really didn't have an opportunity.

[Phil Tiranna]

Exactly.

[Jen]

Not a ton of hot chicks up in Rome There. Philly.

[Phil Tiranna]

No, it's never been. I've never really thought about it. I've always. In my world, I'd rather be in a relationship than be. Than be single.

[Bert]

And I'm happy.

[Phil Tiranna]

I'm not getting hit.

[Jeff]

Jeff, you're the same way. If you were, you know, if you weren't married. There's no Jessica, and you're still single. You're not gonna. You're not gonna act like that either. You're not that kind of a guy. You're a relationship.

[Jen]

There is no Jessica, and we're at this station with this city. I might need a hip replacement at this place.

[Bert]

Right?

[Phil Tiranna]

I'll tell you this. Nothing makes me more disgusted. I was in. I think it was vision or 1150 or somewhere. I was in the bathroom just hearing these guys bragging about all that. I'm gonna take this girl home, and I'm gonna do her nuts. She's so easy. I'm supposed to get her done, get in the parking lot. And that's. That's never been like. I hear that, and I just kind of.

[Jen]

Did you have to interrupt him to borrow a tampon?

[Phil Tiranna]

What are you talking about? You'd be the exact same way, the exact same way if you were not with Jesky. You know, it.

[Jeff]

I would buy it if it was coming from Burt.

[Phil Tiranna]

I would guess from Burt.

[Jen]

Okay, Bert, would you like to sell it then?

[Jeff]

I mean, because Burt was a player back in the day, and I bet he was a jerk.

[Bert]

I was definitely. I've. I've told you guys that I was a total ass because, I mean, I was working on the same kind of station in Washington, D.C. i was in my early 20s, and I was really enjoying just, like, doing stupid things with. With women that I had no intention of being with for the rest of my life. And that was. I loved it. I loved it. I'm bummed that. Because I had such a great time in that. In that part of my life that I see you having that opportunity, and I guess I'm putting my thing on to you. Like, you're just. That's. That's cool that you're not that kind of guy.

[Phil Tiranna]

You want to be the Obi Wan to Luke.

[Bert]

Yeah, but that's not. That's cool. That's not who you're at. That's not your main.

[Melissa]

But that's not even the reason we're having the conversation, because that's not the reason we think. You know, we're debating their relationship is his job, is the arguments. They're Having.

[Phil Tiranna]

And they're not as bad as that. Y' all make them out. And we, granted, we have gotten in some pretty heated arguments, but they're not.

[Bert]

Like, you guys are dropping the F bomb and stuff, man.

[Phil Tiranna]

Yeah, that was the one.

[Melissa]

That's harsh and done pretty early.

[Phil Tiranna]

Yeah, it shouldn't have.

[Jen]

How often have you called the cops or her? How often has a patrol car been in front of your house with the lights on?

[Jeff]

That's never a good sign.

[Bert]

Good morning, Lisa. You're on all the hits.

[Commercial Announcer]

Q.

[Phil Tiranna]

Don't take him. I love him twice.

[Commercial Announcer]

I just.

[Caller Michelle]

I just want to let Phil know that the arguments that he's explaining that he's having with his girlfriend are totally normal in some relationships. I have a couple friend of mine, they love each other, they're totally happy, but without that kind of drama, they wouldn't be together.

[Jeff]

Oh, that's kind of like Crash and Lady Crash.

[Bert]

Yeah, they need that. They. I think he even says that, like, they need that in their relationship. Like, if things. I think Crash has come in here and said, when things get to a mellow point and they're both pretty content, he'll do something to stir it up.

[Jen]

They get nervous. They get nervous like, like throw his wedding band in the tip jar of a strip club in Fort Lauderdale.

[Bert]

And that's no lie. He's in here today without.

[Jeff]

He really.

[Melissa]

Yeah, he really threw his wedding in the tip jar.

[Bert]

Good morning, Michelle. You're on all the hits. Q100.

[Melissa]

Yeah, we got to talk about that sometime. Good morning.

[Jen]

That's a funny sentence to say out loud.

[Caller Michelle]

You guys have been a little hard on the ups and downs of the relationship.

[Jeff]

Thank you.

[Caller Michelle]

I mean, you know, you can't throw it away just that easily. It's going to be hard times.

[Bert]

No way. This is a sure indicator that it's not gonna be. I mean, they're fighting this early in.

[Caller Michelle]

The relationship, but if you're having a conversation on the radio about it, that means you're more concerned about losing it than you are about keeping it.

[Phil Tiranna]

If we're having a conversation about on the radio, who's they are eyeing.

[Caller Michelle]

If the guy is talking about it. If you're talking about it, that means you have a concern with it. So you're probably gonna want to work to fix it than you will to throw it out.

[Bert]

Well, yeah, you have a concern about it because, I mean, you obviously brought in the audio that you brought in today.

[Phil Tiranna]

Oh, right.

[Jen]

I mean, Phil comes in every day and says, can we please talk about my relationship? I'm so torn.

[Bert]

He begs us to break them up.

[Jeff]

Right.

[Melissa]

I want to hear more about these fake fights. Like you actually are reenacting fights? Yeah.

[Jeff]

What is that?

[Melissa]

I didn't know about that. What?

[Phil Tiranna]

So I grabbed my microphone the other night, went to a local bar and found. Went to a table that approached a girl who looks a lot like Mary Kay. And I explained the situation to her.

[Jeff]

And I said, oh, you did not just throw that in there. That was a detail of the story that you did not need to throw in.

[Phil Tiranna]

Well, why?

[Bert]

It's okay for us.

[Phil Tiranna]

Yeah. I don't understand.

[Bert]

Bad for you later on.

[Phil Tiranna]

I don't understand the problem with that, though. It makes sense. Coming up in the bit.

[Jeff]

Whatever. We'll recreate that argument later.

[Phil Tiranna]

Okay. I don't see what the problem with that is.

[Bert]

Not nearly as beautiful as Mary Kay.

[Phil Tiranna]

Yeah, she looked like her. Mary Kay's awesome, and I love her more than that. Anyone? This girl's name.

[Jen]

Was the girl at the bar hot?

[Phil Tiranna]

Well, she was attractive, yes, but she looked like Mary Kay. She had blonde hair.

[Jen]

So Mary Kay is only attractive, not hot. She is.

[Phil Tiranna]

Oh, Jesus.

[Jen]

I'm just asking because you brought it up. So I just want to.

[Phil Tiranna]

Bit was such a good idea a week ago. It really, really was. I was laughing out loud when I was explaining it to people.

[Jen]

I think Mary Kay's hot now.

[Phil Tiranna]

I do, too. I think she's gorgeous and I love her. I love Mary Kay and I do. And I think she's gorgeous and I think she's hot.

[Bert]

So you approach this girl in a.

[Phil Tiranna]

Bar who is this girl who bears no resemblance to Mary Kay whatsoever. Matter of fact, I went and talked to a man. No. And I walked with this girl and I explained to her, I said, look, I need some help because I have been getting in these stupid arguments with my girlfriend. And here's what I want to do. I want to take the situation and turn it around. I want to explain to you what happened and how I approach this situation. And I want to know if I reacted the wrong way, if I was too soft, if I was. If I let her walk all over me. I want to get another girl's. Because I appreciate Yalls advice, except for Burton, Jeff's and Melissa's. So I appreciate your advice, Melissa.

[Melissa]

We'll tell them the truth and channel, you know, sugarcoat it.

[Phil Tiranna]

And so. And I.

[Bert]

And I.

[Phil Tiranna]

And I do. But I'm tired of bringing my problems to y'.

[Bert]

All.

[Phil Tiranna]

So I took my problems out there and I told the girl I Was like, look, and you'll hear this in the setup. Here's what happened. Here's how I. Here's how I reacted. Was I right or was I wrong? And I just wanted to get her reaction to see if. If Mary Kay acted, you know, if I was right about this situation.

[Bert]

So this is you talking to her as though she's Mary Kay.

[Phil Tiranna]

Correct.

[Bert]

Okay.

[Phil Tiranna]

And me. And then there's also the setup in here. Explain to the girl.

[Jen]

Dangerous. Mary Kay listening.

[Phil Tiranna]

Here's the situation. You look exactly like my girlfriend. And the reason I want to talk to you.

[Bert]

You might have lost her there.

[Jen]

Well, if she was listening, she's not gonna hear the rest of it. So you're okay.

[Phil Tiranna]

All right, here we go. Here's the situation. You look exactly like my girlfriend. And the reason I want to talk to you is because me and my girlfriend got in this asinine argument over the weekend, and you look a lot like her. So I would like to pretty much explain my side of the situation. Situation. And kind of give you, like, the scenario of what happened, and then take it from your point of view, like, how you would react. I'll give you my reaction, and then I'll see how you react. Do you mind? No, it's okay. No. Okay, here's the situation. Pretty much. We're at a bar, and you are talking to a couple of guys, and I approached you on this. Okay, seriously, what the is your problem? What the is going on? Are you serious? What kind of question is that? Of course I'm serious. I take you out to the bar, we're partying, having a good time. I look up, and you're over here talking to a couple of guys. Who the are these guys? And by this point, her eyes are so big right now, she has no clue how to react to me.

[Bert]

So she's supposed to be playing the part of Mary Kay.

[Phil Tiranna]

Oh, sure.

[Bert]

All right.

[Jeff]

I think I'd be very mad.

[Phil Tiranna]

Very, very pissed off. Now you know how I feel. Of course I'm pissed off.

[Bert]

You know what?

[Phil Tiranna]

Okay, great.

[Bert]

You know what?

[Commercial Announcer 2]

Great, Great.

[Bert]

You know what?

[Phil Tiranna]

What are you doing? If you ask me from across the bar, it looks like you're sitting there undressed. Them. Are you having sex? And you're them into their eyes, aren't you? You are sitting there. You are sitting there them with your eyes, aren't you?

[Jeff]

Oh, my God.

[Phil Tiranna]

Okay, good. So no. So you got nothing. So you're gonna say nothing now? You were talking up pretty damn well these two over here. And you come over and I try to approach on. You'd be all quiet about it. What do you got to say?

[Melissa]

I don't.

[Caller Michelle]

I don't.

[Phil Tiranna]

Okay, well, that's what I thought. You know what? Really good. Really good of you. You look like a. Over there. Oh, holy no. So how do you think I reacted?

[Jeff]

Insane.

[Phil Tiranna]

Don't think I was being too nice about it.

[Jeff]

You ran Cool.

[Phil Tiranna]

Well, that's what I was checking. I appreciate your help.

[Bert]

Now, did you get the response you thought you'd get there?

[Phil Tiranna]

That's pretty much the same response Mary Kay gave me, So I guess I was right.

[Bert]

Is that any kind of, like, indicator at all of the fights that you guys really get into?

[Phil Tiranna]

I swear to God, I've never cussed like that at Mary Kay. I've never, ever cussed like that. I swear to you on the tattooed cross on my ankle. I've never cursed it at Mary Kay in my life.

[Melissa]

He's not kidding about that. Have you not seen this?

[Bert]

Yeah, I've seen it.

[Phil Tiranna]

You've seen that?

[Bert]

The tattooed cross of my ankle?

[Phil Tiranna]

Hey, is that tattoo JD bottle on my back?

[Jeff]

And the 12 bag of Natty Light in my fridge?

[Phil Tiranna]

And the black eye on Bert's face.

[Jeff]

Is that.

[Jen]

Is that tattoo a gift from your ex girlfriend?

[Phil Tiranna]

No, it was a birthday present from. It was a birthday present myself.

[Jen]

Okay. Yeah. Didn't somebody get you. Didn't an ex girlfriend get you a tattoo?

[Phil Tiranna]

We talked about it, but we never did.

[Jen]

Okay.

[Bert]

Hey, Omar.

[Phil Tiranna]

Hey, Good morning.

[Bert]

Good morning. What's going on?

[Caller Omar]

Oh, I was just calling to support Phil and let him know that, you know, arguing is. Okay, just a quick story. About a year ago, my wife was on the air with y', all, and we've been engaged for three years. And yet. And everybody on there, except for Jeff, was telling her that it wasn't gonna work out because we've been engaged for too long. And the reason we were engaged for so long is because we were arguing so much. But now we're happily married and have a kid on the way because we got all that stuff behind us. So I just want to let Phil know that, you know, arguing is okay.

[Bert]

The thing I hear is the only one that you should listen to on the show regarding your relationship is Jeff.

[Melissa]

Is Jeff okay?

[Caller Omar]

Well, no, I wouldn't say that now.

[Jeff]

Omar.

[Jen]

Omar, are you. I'm certain the kid is yours that's on the way.

[Caller Omar]

If it looks like you, I'll be in trou.

[Phil Tiranna]

No, but we have never actually argued like that. I just wanted to get this girl's opinion if I just cursed at her for five minutes straight? Pretty much, that's about how it happened.

[Bert]

55 days and counting.

[Jen]

Just a bit of advice. Nobody ever looks like your girlfriend unless she's in the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue or a Victoria's Secret catalog.

[Phil Tiranna]

Okay, information that would have been good about eight and a half minutes ago.

[Jen]

Hey, I met this girl at Vision. She looks just like you and she was so cool. Love you.

[Bert]

Not so much.

[Jeff]

Wrong thing to say.

[Phil Tiranna]

Appreciate you guys. The Bird show.
