Overview of Full Show PT 3: Wednesday, November 19, 2025 [Vault]
This episode of The Bird Show (Pionaire Podcasting) is a mix of listener calls, host banter and strong relationship opinionating. The hosts cover two recurring themes: (1) whether to keep photos of exes and how placement/intent matters, and (2) a deep, emotional caller situation about forgiving a fiancé who cheated while she was pregnant and the complications of keeping the “mistress” inside the same friend group. The tone is candid, blunt and often humorous; hosts give practical advice, clash over philosophy, and involve callers to take a poll-style approach.
Main segments and topics
- Dating follow-up / identification story
- Hosts attempted to track down a “Jason” a listener met; they found potential matches and learned one unrelated Jason had been involved in a workplace killing (unrelated to the listener’s story).
- Debate: keeping photos of exes
- Host personal anecdotes about finding an old ex-photo in a drawer.
- Panel and callers argue pros/cons: keep “good” photos for memory vs. toss photos that create jealousy or intimacy reminders.
- Consensus themes: placement matters (displayed vs. tucked away), context matters (explicit/intimate photos vs. casual group shots).
- Listener call: “Cookie” — married woman who caught fiancé cheating while pregnant
- She forgave and married him; the mistress remains in the shared friend group and even calls the caller weekly.
- Caller is anxious about a Halloween party where the mistress plans to wear a revealing costume; she seeks advice about exclusion and boundaries.
- Hosts and callers largely advise cutting ties with the mistress, setting clear boundaries with husband and social circle, and confronting the situation directly.
Key takeaways
- Photos of exes:
- Placement and content determine appropriateness. Displaying intimate photos is generally problematic; tucked-away pictures mixed with other memories are less so.
- Partners should communicate expectations—if a photo causes serious discomfort, a compromise or removal is reasonable.
- People’s attitudes vary: some keep photos for nostalgia/memory; others view them as emotional baggage.
- Handling a cheating partner and the mistress in your circle:
- Rebuilding trust is possible but takes time; marrying before full healing increases complexity.
- Maintaining a social relationship with the person who cheated fosters resentment and increases risk of repeat harm; many hosts recommend eliminating that person from your inner circle.
- You can’t “choose when” the person is present if you’ve already maintained a friendship (you either accept the friendship or end it).
- Practical boundaries and one direct conversation with the husband and the other woman can resolve the ambiguity.
Practical advice / action items (from hosts, distilled)
- For photos of exes:
- Audit where photos are displayed. If they’re in frames or your partner sees them daily, remove them.
- If a photo is intimate (sitting in someone’s lap, kissing, in bed), delete or toss it.
- If you want to preserve memories, store them with other life photos (albums/boxes) out of daily sight.
- Communicate with your partner: explain why you kept a photo or agree on what stays.
- For the caller dealing with the mistress:
- Decide whether you want this person in your life at all. If not, tell them clearly and stop answering their calls.
- Talk to your husband about boundaries and what you need to feel secure.
- If you do choose to cut ties, be consistent — mixed signals (being friends sometimes, cutting them out other times) are unfair and confusing.
- Model the behavior you want your child to see (respect/boundaries).
Notable quotes & moments
- “Placement matters — a photo in a drawer vs. on your desk makes all the difference.”
- “If she slept with your fiancé while you were pregnant, in your bed — nobody gets over that in your bed.”
- “You can’t pick and choose where you want her to hang out — you’ve already established a friendship.”
- “Sometimes it’s okay to be a bitch, ladies.” (Used to encourage setting firm boundaries.)
Tone and host dynamic
- Blunt, comedic, relationship-advice style with frequent caller interaction.
- Hosts frequently disagree but converge on firm boundary-setting when cheating is involved.
- Listeners contribute diverse perspectives (keep photos for memory; purge photos to move on; cultural/friendship context matters).
Ads & sponsors mentioned
