Group Therapy: Does The Bro Code Still Exist

You've heard stories about it and you've heard all the rumors, but this morning's group therapy wanted to know if the "Bro" code still exists! That was the topic of conversation this morning on The Mike & Carla Morning Show.

A guy emailed the show to let us know that he was truly in a pickle. He and his wife are good friends with another couple in the cul de sac. Their friend's wife has suspected her husband of cheating and now wants answers.

As it turns out, she has teamed up with the wife of the guy who wrote in and together will face him looking for answers. Here's the deal, the guy knows the other guy is cheating because he has seen his neighbor out with the "other" woman!

Now if you're not aware, there are guidelines to the "Bro" code according to an article by Substance! You read through it and it's pretty strict. One being your word is your honor!

So, with that in mind, what does this guy do? Does it keep the honor of the "bro" code? Or does he tell his wife and the wife of the friend that the guy is cheating? He seemingly is in trouble no matter what right?

Well, a couple of people thought the guy should just tell the truth. He has nothing to lose, except the friendship...and how close are they anyway.

Some thought he should go to guy, tell him what's going on. Give him a couple of days to come clean...if not, then he's spilling the beans.

On the other hand, a few thought the one couple should just mind their own business. Don't allow the other couple to bring their drama into their lives.

Take a couple of minutes, listen to the segment and think about what you would tell this guy!

International Day of Friendship (which is recognized on social media as #FriendshipDay) falls on July 30. While on the surface, this may seem like one of those "fake" holidays you often see, there's actually some history behind it.

According to Days of the Year, International Day of Friendship got its start as a "Hallmark Holiday." Yes, the holiday does date back to the greeting card giant in 1919. The purpose of the holiday? To send your best friends a greeting card telling them how much you appreciate them and their friendship.

While the holiday's popularity faded by 1940, it was resurrected in 1998 by the United Nations, who named the iconic children's book character Winnie the Pooh as the Ambassador of Friendship. Years later in April 2011, the United Nations officially declared that July 30 would be recognized as International Day of Friendship.

In its official declaration, the United Nation encouraged people all over the world to "observe this day in an appropriate manner, in accordance with the culture and other appropriate circumstances or customs of their local, national and regional communities, including through education and public awareness-raising activities."

As with any holiday, a little celebration is in order. One way we're going to celebrate is by recognizing some of our favorite best friends from film and TV.

Among the best friend duos we immediately think of are Bill S. Preston Esq. and Ted "Theodore" Logan from the Bill & Ted trilogy. What an iconic pair! Let's face it: If your friend’s dad threatened military school if you two flunked your history class, you’d travel through time to pull out all the stops to keep your friend at your school, too! It was also nice to see that their friendship went the distance decades after the world was introduced to them.  

Another pair of besties we immediately think of is Cory Matthes and Shawn Hunter from Boy Meets World. Few friendships are as beloved as Cory and Shawn. Boy Meets World fans saw them grow up from middle school to college and all of the ups and downs that come with those years. Like Bill and Ted, there's just something special about a friendship that dates back to your teen years. Those friends really saw the good, the bad and the ugly of you coming of age.

Here are more of our favorite best friends from film and TV in honor of International Day of Friendship. Enjoy!

If your friend’s dad threatened military school if you two flunked your history class, you’d travel through time to pull out all the stops to keep your friend at your school, too!  

Going to your ten-year high school reunion is kind of like time travel. For Romy and Michelle, it’s their way to stick it to the “A-Group” who bullied them for those formative four years.

Few friendships are as beloved as Cory and Shawn. Boy Meets World fans saw them grow up from middle school to college and all of the ups and downs that come with those years.

Evan and Seth are graduating from high school and are about to go their separate ways to college, but there’s nothing that brings two friends together than the hopes of potentially hooking up with their dream girls at the biggest party of their lives.

They don’t fit in and are too sardonic for Lawndale High or really any high school in existence. Thankfully, they have each other to lean on and viewers got to make fun of their fellow classmates with them.

Think of them like a super-rude, modern version of The Odd Couple. Their shenanigans throughout the entire “View Askewniverse” honestly deserve their own list.

Bound together thanks to rock and roll and an amazing cable access show, Wayne and Garth were “goals” decades before that phrase became a thing.

They should be too dumb to function, but Harry and Lloyd’s absurd stupidity leads them to equally absurd adventures. At the end of the day, they truly do care about each other. Also, Harry is right; you can't triple stamp a double stamp.

Desperately trying to satisfy the munchies, escaping Gitmo and finding a new Christmas tree. Is there nothing these two stoners can’t do?!
