The Morning Brew with Chris Bennett
When Your Partner Pees The Bed, What Do You Do?
Awkward relationship moments, surprising dog facts, and a taste of the Old West come together in this engaging episode of Morning Brew. When a listener's boyfriend has an embarrassing nighttime accident and mysteriously disappears afterward, our relationship expert Paul from Beaumont steps in with practical advice gleaned from years of experience (and a few personal mishaps of his own). The solution? A little compassion goes a long way when someone's feeling vulnerable.
The laughs continue as Chris challenges our guest to a round of dog trivia in honor of National Mutt Day. From America's favorite breed to the world's smallest pup, test your canine knowledge alongside our contestants. You might be surprised to learn which breed holds the title of fastest dog or which unique canine is known as "the barkless dog."
Sharon's shower thoughts segment delivers those perfect "aha" moments that make you see everyday life differently. Why do we find it normal to eat different meals at home but weird to order the same dish at restaurants? Would an alien invasion really unite humanity? These bite-sized philosophical nuggets provide just the right amount of mental stimulation to complement the show's humor.
The episode wraps with an exciting preview of the 11th Annual Pinedale Chuckwagon Festival, where authentic pioneer cooking takes center stage. Brian from Pinedale shares all the details about this unique culinary experience featuring Dutch oven cooking, period-appropriate recipes, and a chance to taste history. With meal tickets at just $20 and proceeds from the accompanying pie sale benefiting local organizations, this community event promises food, fun, and a glimpse into America's pioneer past.

From the Horn Auto Center Studios Chris Bennett and the Morning Brew. It is Thursday, so it's time for Relationship Advice. Janine is out until next week, so we have Paul from Beaumont filling in. What makes you qualified for Relationship Advice?
Speaker 2:Hey man, I've been married to Ryan for a long long time, Thank you.
Speaker 1:Okay, there we go, that's it All. Right, that's it. He has a lot of years under his belt. Here we go. I, 26-year-old female, woke up in the middle of the night to the unmistakable sound of someone peeing in my bed. My boyfriend, 22, who I've been dating a year, had clearly had an accident. I laughed it off at first, honestly in shock, and told him to grab a towel. He was super quiet, obviously embarrassed, and mumbled something before walking out to sleep on the couch. I followed him confused and asked what was going on. Then, when things got weird, he started packing his staff up, ranting, still mumbling, and left and before walking out he said something like you people have everything but wouldn't explain. I'm now sitting here scrubbing the mattress with vinegar, wondering did I do something wrong? Was I too harsh to say get a towel, or was he sleepwalking? What advice would you give this young lady?
Speaker 2:Yeah, it sounds like he was sleeping. It doesn't sound like he was too hard, sean, your mom would find you peed in bed, but it sounds like he could have been sleepwalking. Yeah, I peed on my grandma's. I peed on my grandma's hutch one night like that.
Speaker 1:When you were sleepwalking. How old were you?
Speaker 2:I don't know 15 or so. And what did your grandma do to you? One of my great-grandmas was just like what are you doing?
Speaker 1:I mean, that was pretty much it. Yeah, I have a similar story like that, but it happened a little bit more recent than yours, Paul. So what's your advice to this lady?
Speaker 2:For real guys. Just let him get sleep.
Speaker 1:So she should probably call him, reach out to him if he hasn't come home, and be like hey, I just want to let you know it's not a big deal and I think you might be sleepwalking, let's talk about it, right, but it's no, big deal. Yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, perfect, as long as it's not crying, yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but she needs to definitely reach out and let him know that it's okay, reassure him and maybe put some plastic under the bed, right?
Speaker 2:Yeah, I would just give him a pack of the beer.
Speaker 1:All right, that was relationship advice with a relationship advice guest today Paul from Beaumont. It is now time for Are you Smarter Than a Redneck? And, paul, today is National Mutt Day. You have a Shih Tzu, right? Yeah, he ain't no mutt. He ain't no mutt, he's purebred baby Gilbert and he's daddy's little boy, right.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he rings the bell when he's talking a lot of stuff.
Speaker 1:He rings the bell. That's what my dog does too. All right, we're going to do some dog trivia. These are not multiple choice. First one to three wins. Here we go. What is the most popular dog breed in America? Paul?
Speaker 2:Paul Lab.
Speaker 1:Lab, I'm going to say Golden Retriever. Oh, it's, labrador Retriever is what they say.
Speaker 2:So I'm going to give us both a point.
Speaker 1:What is the smallest dog breed in the world? Chris, chihuahua. Yes, it is Chihuahua, which breed is known as the barkless dog?
Speaker 2:I don't think any of us will get this one.
Speaker 1:It's called a Basenji. A Basenji, all right, do you?
Speaker 2:know the tallest dog breed.
Speaker 1:I'm going to say Great Dane. Great Dane is the correct answer. Does that make me the winner? Did I win? No, no, oh, I get one more. I get one more. Okay. What breed currently holds the title of fastest dog? Paul Paul Greyhound, yep, okay, he's lived to live another day. We're tied at two apiece. Is that right? Yeah, all right, this one wins it. Border Collie Boom, I am smarter than a redneck two days in a row. Paul, thank you so much. I'm sorry, today was a little rough.
Speaker 2:Rough. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. Yeah, it was good.
Speaker 1:All right. Well, Paul, thanks so much for having fun with us, and we'll talk to you tomorrow.
Speaker 2:All right, buddy, y'all have a great day. Have a good show, thanks.
Speaker 1:Bye. It is now time for a segment we haven't done in a while. It's hey girl. Now it's time for sharing thoughts. All right, go ahead and give me some sharing thoughts and I'll judge them. Pick my favorite one.
Speaker 3:Sounds good. When you eat at home with your partner, it's weird to eat different entrees. But when you eat at a restaurant with your partner, it's weird to eat the same entree.
Speaker 1:That's a good point. That's a good point. I think we eat a lot of the different entrees because we do a lot of scrounging at home, but that is a very good thought. What's the next one?
Speaker 3:Does taking the stairs?
Speaker 1:add more to the average lifespan than falling down the stairs. Subtracts Things that make you go. Hmm, that's a good one.
Speaker 3:Next one An alien invasion wouldn't unite humanity Nations would be selling each other out at the first opportunity.
Speaker 1:And do you have one more shower thought for us I do. All right, last one.
Speaker 3:People probably wouldn't be nearly as annoyed by others using speaker phones in public if they used it as a volume of normal conversation.
Speaker 1:That was Shower Thoughts with Sharon. Thank you, best friend. You're the best I hope you have a great day.
Speaker 3:Thank you, Bye. Thank you too Bye.
Speaker 1:I am on the phone with one of my best friends, brian from Pinedale buddy. Good morning Chris. Good morning you guys are T-minus two days away from the Pinedale Chuckwagon Festival, the 11th annual Chuckwagon Festival. Are you guys ready?

Speaker 4:And they all cook their own cuisine and we have a lot of beef on the plates this year.
Speaker 1:And so it's basically like going back in time to the pioneer days. These chuckwagons are really cool to look at. Everybody dresses up in the theme and then they all make delicious meals from each chuckwagon. And then you basically go around, you get a meal ticket for $20, and then you pick which meal from the chuckwagon you want and then you also get to vote on your favorite meal as well.
Speaker 4:Exactly, we want the people to vote on the most authentic wagon this year.
Speaker 1:because we got enough wagons, we can make it good, nice, so authentic wagon and uh, best meal and you could go with your family. You all get maybe a meal from a different chuck wagon and try something from a little bit of everything. It's going to be a lot of fun. The event starts at 10 am. Meal tickets are $20. It's at the Pinedale Community Center at 1264 Pinedale, arizona, and then the meals are served at 12. But you always tell me come early because tickets sell out fast.
