  Speaker 2: It was a bro code violation.
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: Let me tell you why. It wasn't because Summer wouldn't.
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: They wouldn't date while they played baseball together.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: Oh so it's during season.
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well it was after Steel was gone. And Slade
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: was great with it. You know, Slade loved They all
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: love Philip. But it was interesting because as much as
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: I was like, no, you want to go out. This
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: guy is the best thing in the world, she was
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: even like I can't, I cannot he's he plays baseball
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: with my brothers. So they waited to even talk until
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: after still graduated. Summer had graduated left and was, you know,
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: in nursing. Uh yeah, working at a hospital as a nurse.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: But see, this is one of those things if you
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: break that bro code, if you date your friend's sister,
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: you have to marry her, yeah.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: Or or you have to have the brother's permissions and blessing.
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: Because both Stell and Slide were like, you'll never do
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: better than Philip. Yeah, he's the guy. So that's you know,
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: there's that little loophole what do you call it in Congress,
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: which you have this little amendment to that bro code?
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: Is that when your brothers are both like, yeah, that's okay,
• 4:39

• 4:41
  Speaker 2: What is it about men that makes them stick to this?
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: What is it about men? Of course there's violations and
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: then they're off the list. But I don't think women

• 4:52
  Speaker 2: like we will tell you, like if somebody's happening cheating
• 4:55
