Brooke Fox 2:49
It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, and we got an email from a woman who was desperate for our help because she's had something in her house for nine days and could not get rid of it. What the heck? No matter what she tried, leaving the door open, shooing it with a broom, it just wouldn't go. And that something is her mother-in-law. I know. It's even scarier than the ring part two. Oh, wow. And the worst part is it's caused an issue between her and her husband. Oh, what is not shocking. So we're going to try to assist during a brand new Awkward Tuesday phone call right after this.

What advice do the hosts give to the listener?

Brooke Fox 3:32
It's awkward. It's Tuesday. It's Awkward Tuesday Phone Call. We all have informal titles on this show. Like Alexis is our resident dog walker slash party girl. It makes sense. Jose is our resident video game expert slash professional napper. Yeah, watch me nap on stream. And Brooke is the poster child for getting along with your mother-in-law. She is. There is not one person I know who beats Brooke in total grace, humility, and tact when dealing with the mother of your spouse. I appreciate that. And I appreciate that you're known as a guy that's never sarcastic. No. I love that.

How does the listener feel about her actions?

Brooke Fox 4:17
I love that about us. Aren't we great?
Dr. Elizabeth Poynter 4:20
We sure are.
Brooke Fox 4:21
Unfortunately, not everybody has that tight bond that Brooke does with her mom-in-law.
