| 0:06.9 | But before you rock out with your socks out, we got a quick two-minute ad break from a sponsors keeping the show rocking and rolling. |
| 0:13.9 | This is an I-Heart podcast. |
| 0:16.5 | Guaranteed human. |
| 0:18.5 | My fiance demanded my son's benefits to pay rent, but I'm standing my ground. |
| 0:23.6 | Those aren't your benefits. |
| 0:25.6 | My son, 15 male, receives $1,100 a month in Social Security survivor benefits from his late father, |
| 0:32.6 | who passed away when my son was five. My boyfriend, 40 male, and I have been in an on-again, off-again relationship for a long time. Things have been good recently, and he is proposed.

| 1:35.0 | check, $5.50 for his personal use, and save the other half for him. I think that since he is almost |
| 1:40.2 | 17, he should have some control over his own money. My boyfriend disagrees completely. He |
| 1:45.0 | thinks that since we're going to be a family, all the money should be pooled together for shared |
| 1:49.1 | expenses. He thinks I'm wrong and selfish for not wanting to include the survivor benefits in the |
