Franklin

Multi-million dollar house, Ferraris and Lamborghinis, private jets, a billion dollar fraud.

If you ever receive a bad gift, you can either pretend that you really like it, or, well, no, you pretty much have to pretend that you like it.

We really have no other way.

The thing is, that doesn't really work for one of our listeners, because he just found out what his girlfriend has secretly been planning to give him for his upcoming birthday, and the mere idea of it is sending him into a literal panic.

Oh, so much so he's determined he has to stop her from ever giving it to him.

You're going to hear what that is and why he absolutely cannot let it happen in your brand new Awkward Tuesday phone call next.

You've heard people say the phrase, information is power.

Yes.

Well, that's not the case for our listener, Franklin.

Apparently for him, information is fear.

Because he learned something recently that got him so terrified, so scared, he emailed us asking if we could help him make an awkward Tuesday phone call.

So maybe ignorance is bliss is the better quote we should use here.

Oh, if only.

It's too late for that.

Franklin now knows too much.

Franklin, welcome to the show, man.

Hi.

Oh, my God.

Just even that hi legit sounded frightened.

I thought Jeffrey was exaggerating like he normally does, but you... I felt like I was exaggerating, but you sound like you're hiding underneath a blanket right now.
