It’s Talk About Something Good Tuesday on The Morning Brew — and today we’ve got good news, free tickets, bananas and some questionable relationship advice!

Brian from Pinedale joins us for Kiss, Make Up or Break Up, where we find out what 42 years of marriage has taught him about picking your battles — including whether spending $500 without telling your spouse is a dealbreaker.

Then John T. from Show Low plays Banana or Baloney for four tickets to the final race of the season at Deuce of Clubs Thunder Raceway. He only needs TWO out of five questions right… somehow, it takes all five.

Plus, we give away six more race tickets to Kyle from Show Low, share some good news and celebrate the first responders who make a difference in our community.

It’s good news, good vibes and plenty of Morning Brew shenanigans.

We're kicking off the week with laughs, good news and a little motivation! David Whitmore from the Show Low Elks Riders calls in to recap an incredible weekend of comedy and the amazing moment that helped us raise more than $1,000 for local children's charities.

Then Show Low's Dave Ramsey joins us for Motivational Monday! In honor of Pluto getting demoted 20 years ago, we're sharing motivational quotes for anyone who's ever been knocked down, rejected or overlooked. Dave also sticks around for Boo or Cool: Waffle Edition—and has some VERY strong opinions about chicken and waffles.

Plus, comedian Ryan McKee calls in before heading back to his hometown of Payson for our comedy show this weekend. He's worried about seeing his childhood bullies again, tells us about his night at a Kesha concert, and reveals that his 22-year-old roommate has apparently been WATERING A FAKE PLANT.

It's another ridiculous Monday on The Morning Brew with Chris Bennett & Best Friends!

Be nice to yourself, be nice to others, and don't be a jerk.

Originally from Spokane, Washington and now living in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, Kylie shares how Taylor Swift inspired her to pick up a guitar at 12 years old, the first song she secretly wrote about a boy she had a crush on, her first trip to Nashville, and how songwriting lets her bring out a bolder, flirtier side of herself.

Relationship Advice Thursday is here, Best Friends — and today we brought in some backup!

Jineane Ford joins us to tackle a relationship dilemma that hits a little too close to home for Chris: What do you do when your partner of eight years just can't seem to keep his butt contained in his pants?

Then comedian Dwayne Perkins, headliner of our August 22nd comedy show at the Show Low Elks Lodge, joins the Morning Brew! We get to know Dwayne with some rapid-fire questions before putting his relationship-advice skills to the test.

Court is officially in session, best friends!

On today’s Morning Brew with Chris Bennett and Best Friends, we’ve got TWO ridiculous Am I the Jerk Court cases.

First, a wedding guest is told to arrive two hours early — only to discover the groom lied about the start time so he could get some FREE manual labor!

Then things get even crazier when Paul from Beaumont puts on his redneck judge’s wig to rule on a husband who uses the kids’ craft scissors to open raw chicken, leaves the baby gate open with the oven on, and rushes back to the bedroom because he doesn’t want to crash… his FLIGHT SIMULATOR.

Plus, Nicole plays some Baseball Fans Day trivia to win VIP comedy tickets compliments of ComfortFit Dentures, and we ask Paul the important question: What would he buy first if he won a BILLION dollars?

Grab your coffee and come laugh with your best friends!
