You ever sit down at a family dinner and think—“Oh, this about to get ugly”? Yeah. That’s this whole episode.

We’re deep in the mess today with Reddit stories and Classmate letters about family betrayal, abandonment, wild accusations, and straight-up generational disrespect. From sisters fighting over who’s the “chosen one” to a husband secretly writing a novel about his sister-in-law (??), the chaos does not let up.

55:50 The Worst Family Secrets People Have Found Out

This one felt like sitting on a porch with the funniest, realest grandmas on earth.

We reacted to elders talking about love, money, dating, and what actually matters in life, from a wholesome grandma reminding us that people mean more than things… to another one spitting full Miami-Trina energy telling her granddaughter to make men pay up.

Robert & Mrs. Sawyer break down the wisdom, the comedy, and the surprisingly honest takes about relationships today vs. “back in their day.”

Endearing, hilarious, and occasionally chaotic, this episode proves the elderly still have the best commentary on the internet.

This week’s class is in full session, and the drama is layered. We’re talking about birthday dinners gone wrong, freeloading friends who eat your entire fridge, and the art of weaponizing nudity mid-argument (yup, that’s a thing).We’ve got listener submissions and Reddit chaos, including: • A girlfriend who strips during fights—and it works • A “work husband” who got a little too comfortable • A dad who wants the master bedroom in YOUR house • And a guest who literally ate everything in the houseOh—and college tuition drama that will have you questioning family loyalty for real.Plus: your favorite new segment, School Snacks, is back! Mrs. Sawyer’s taste buds take a trip down memory lane with some classic school lunch nostalgia.Classmates, this episode is a roller coaster, don’t miss it.

A single dad wanted to host a sleepover for his daughter and her friends. But when the moms said “no thanks,” he got defensive… real defensive.

Then came the plot twist: turns out this dad also does something strange for some change, regularly posts videos dancing about “his fat 🍑,” and then spent the week arguing with women on the Internet about why they’re “discriminating” against him.

Robert and Mrs. Sawyer break down how this situation went from parenting discussion to full-on chaos, the double standards at play, and why sometimes people expose exactly why folks didn’t trust them in the first place.

Why don’t we hear more from couples who are actually happy?

Because happiness don’t get views!

In a refreshing break from relationship chaos, OBK Reacts explore why positive marriages rarely go viral, whether happy husbands/wives stay offline on purpose, and what it means for how we learn about relationships.

We also react to a wholesome TikTok where a boyfriend flips the “what would you do if we broke up?” question and shows how much he actually cares.

Are healthy relationships just boring… or are people protecting what matters most?
